Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Lao Liu actually didn't want to go to that step. After all, those who could make it to this level these days basically realized that human resources were an important resource. If he expelled these people now, he would have to arrest them again later when he had time. Wouldn't that be a waste of time?
Besides, given the current environment in Central Asia, if this group of people were driven out like this, in a few days they would become bandits entrenched in some remote area.

Moreover, with Lao Liu's current management ability, the group of people who were expelled might turn into bandits around Lao Liu. In this way, the overall environment will be worse than before. At least before, Lao Liu had some private tacit understanding with the former bandit leader. Now, the bandits who were released might specifically cause trouble for Lao Liu. These are all new problems.

So if he could avoid releasing them, Lao Liu would definitely not do it on purpose. But now Lao Liu's village really can't control these people. As for setting up a new village and separating out some people, to be honest, if you can't control them, it is very normal for the separated people to become bandits and fight against you. You may even have to invest more people into it because of the construction of a new village.

Even if it's just building some roads, wells, and some thatched houses, it still costs money, and it's not low. With so many more people, they all need to eat.

What's even worse is that Lao Liu hasn't actually solved the food problem. When there was only the village of 2,000 people that he built, he relied on intensive farming and had some food reserves. As a result, in this early spring season when there is surplus food, the population under his rule has increased from 2,000 to more than 10,000...

Food could be the real problem!
It was only thanks to the fact that Lao Liu had the support of the Han Dynasty and the fiefdom order issued by Rome that he was able to use the documents to exchange for some food, but this all cost money and had to be repaid!
In short, if he continues to go on like this, Lao Liu feels that he is really about to explode. He has to take care of the food, drink, defecation and urination of tens of thousands of people by himself. If he can organize spring ploughing in the coming spring, then he can get through this year and the autumn harvest by inertia. But if he fails, then his fiefdom will explode. What is going on?
"In short, don't try to wipe out the bandits. The bandits in peace have a purpose. You can't wipe them out at will!" Bi Laoliu warned his brothers loudly that if they continued to wipe out the bandits blindly, he didn't know whether the bandits would explode or not, but he had to explode.

There was no way. Most of these veterans came from poor families. Although they had experienced battlefields and were ruthless and would not hesitate to take ruthless action when necessary, they were still reluctant to take ruthless action when facing ordinary people who posed no threat and who had already landed.

To be honest, most of the Yellow Turban veterans could not do what Huangfu Song did and directly kill all the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban captives. Although there were many scums among the Yellow Turbans, even for these scums, it would be difficult to issue an order to kill them all when facing hundreds of thousands of creatures like him.

There is an upper limit to evil for normal humans. The evil that ordinary people can do is more or less constrained by their own minds. But for certain beings, when we don't talk about good and evil, but only talk about justice or not, what they can do is really scary.

When justice collides with another kind of justice, the consequences of death are far from trivial.

Before these places were divided up, they would inevitably be occupied by bandits. After all, before the arrival of the major families, the places occupied by large bandit groups were the places where the major families are now occupied. This is also the reason why the major families came in the early days and fought against the local bandits head-on.

Even if these good intentions will not be fully expressed, at least they will not be deliberately harmed. This is why Bi Laoliu has not used other solutions even though there are other solutions, but instead tried every means to strengthen management as much as possible.

For people like Bi Laoliu, even though they have already achieved the title of nobility, their background and experience destined them to have a hint of kindness when facing the common people who were once the same as themselves.

"You can kill the bandits first, but you can't kill them now." Lao Liu sighed and picked up a silver wine jug from the side. This was something that was obtained from bandits during some suppression campaign. It looked like it should be something from the Parthian Palace, but it didn't matter, it was just a decoration.

This was also the reason why the major families were so excited for a long time afterwards, but in fact, the reason was similar to that of a big hedgehog. After absorbing a large number of foreign populations, they were not in a very good condition.

This is actually the normal way for new forces to develop and compete after the collapse of a country. However, this development trend of Parthia was interrupted by Chen Xi, who let the Han family take over this opportunity.

Of course, the major families also know that the places chosen by these locals are all quite good places, but the Han family, which occupies the core area and has absorbed a wave of young and strong population, is actually a little overwhelmed. They also need to strengthen management, identify the capabilities of the management, and maintain internal stability.

However, this development pattern only lasted for a period of time. The major families became entrenched and no longer eliminated the bandits. Instead, they allowed the bandits they had defeated to break up into small groups and then occupy strange places such as mountains and river valleys on the edge of their own fiefdoms.

"No way, brother, the brothers eat and drink here, and take some things before leaving. If we don't do some work for you, the brothers will feel bad." Fu Bo looked at Lao Liu's expression and said helplessly, "I can't do other things, but I can really kill the thieves."

"When I first came here, I didn't understand why the major families stopped after a brief suppression, so that there are still many bandits in their marginal radiation zones and those corners of the mountainous areas. You have also seen these places, which are actually very good places for us." Bi Laoliu said with a sigh.

Most of the large families did not bring shame to the Han Dynasty in terms of their performance. They successfully defeated the bandits entrenched in the Qianlong area, then transformed themselves into local households and began to develop rapidly.

Because the bandits were not stupid. If they still had a little ambition to conquer the world, they would of course occupy those places that had resources and potential. Only by occupying these places could they develop, and after developing, they could gradually conquer the world.

The good places in Central Asia are indeed occupied by the major families, but apart from these places, there are many places with complete resources in all aspects, but if they were occupied by large families, the development potential would not be sufficient. These places will naturally be allocated to small and medium-sized families, as well as veterans with noble titles.

Chen Xi didn't know much about Feng Shui and fortune, but after absorbing the luck of the Parthian bandits and becoming the new local residents, the way the major families developed had indeed changed. Apart from anything else, his heart had really become wild.

Bi Laoliu did not realize this when he first came, but after his comrades' mess this time, Laoliu basically determined the reason why the major families stopped expanding. The internal situation of the major families should be similar to his current situation. They are all full, but do not want others to find out.

Hundreds of thousands of people are not easy to manage, especially since these people do not share the same language and ethnicity as the Han Dynasty and have already developed their own local habits. Many things need to be handled one by one by the management personnel, and a lot of time is needed to make these people accustomed to the Han Dynasty's management style.

The simplest point is that, except for East Asia, people in other places often work for a day, get paid and then disappear, regardless of any management system. This is actually the difference between the lifestyles of the local area and East Asia for hundreds or thousands of years. It is not something that can be transformed into the same lifestyle in East Asia overnight. Even if the Han Dynasty was powerful, there would be some turmoil in the middle.

"I remember which branch of the Cui family's daughter you married, right?" Lao Liu looked at Qian Xin and asked.

"Yes, my wife is a branch of the Cui family, so I came to the Cui family's fiefdom to learn. Didn't I just happen to pass by your place?" Qian Xin said to Bi Laoliu.

"I'm not sure if my guess is correct, but when you go there, you can keep an eye on how the Cui family absorbs local people, builds local villages, and changes the temperament of this group of people. Take this aspect to learn. When you are done, remember to give me the whole report so that I can take a look at it." Bi Laoliu said to Qian Xin, "Other things should also be important, but this is probably the first problem we have to face. Learn this first, and then learn other things."

"Brother, brother, my wife is the daughter of Wang from Taiyuan. What should I go to learn? My wife has already gone there. I just happened to pass by here and saw a group of acquaintances, so I turned here." Han Tong said with a smile, "My wife wrote to me saying that she was confused by the way Wang's company was run."

Although the Wang family of Taiyuan was exterminated and only three direct descendants, Wang Chen, Wang Ling and Wang Fan, escaped, the branch in Taiyuan was not damaged at all. So when marrying off daughters, the Wang family also married off some of their daughters. Moreover, because there were too few daughters, the dowries given by the Wang family were relatively large.

In addition, after the Taiyuan Wang family was exterminated, even after absorbing the Donghai Wang family and the Langya Wang family, the manpower was still extremely scarce among the large families, so the daughters of the Taiyuan Wang family were among the very few among the major families who did not receive the news of enfeoffment in advance.

Because Wang Ling, the head of the Taiyuan Wang family, didn't want to take care of this matter at all. In Wang Ling's words, I haven't even settled our Wang family's fiefdom in Central Asia. For the newly opened fiefdom in Africa, there is only Wang Lang, a capable brother, who is working hard with a group of younger brothers. How can he have the time to take care of his own son-in-law's fiefdom?

An alluvial plain of 10,000 square kilometers, that's great, but it's none of my business. Our Wang family has a lot of things to do now. Recently, we are studying how to build a large legion to command, and how to build a three-talented army. The internal management has been relaxed, and we are comprehensively studying how to strengthen the military strength!

In short, the nobles who married the daughters of the Wang family did not receive any news at all. The Wang family seemed to not want to care about their daughter's actions at all, which made the daughter of the Wang family very angry. Especially when they were gathering in Central Asia, she chatted with the wife of her husband's comrade-in-arms, and her face became even worse.

How should I put it? This kind of thing is something you do with good intentions and you don't have any extra thoughts. You just want to inform your married daughter. But as long as you notify her in advance, your daughter will suspect that you have extra thoughts and will secretly be on guard against you.

But if you completely ignore your daughter and don't tell her anything, she will doubt whether she is her biological daughter. Why do everyone else know about it, but you didn't tell me so that I could prepare in advance? Are you my biological father? Other families all say it, but you don't!
In short, this matter is a matter of neither saying nor not saying. But if you can say it in advance, you must have some thoughts about it. If you don't say it at all, your daughter will definitely come back and scold you.

At the very least, the married daughter of the Wang family rushed directly to the Wang family's fiefdom and asked her biological father what was going on and why he didn't care about her!

"I heard that the Wang family didn't notify you at all?" Bi Laoliu asked tentatively. No one knew who spread the news, but it was indeed widely spread.

"No, my father-in-law's family seldom contacts us. After marrying my wife to me, they seldom interact with us. We have visited them a few times. It's not that they look down on me, but it feels like the Wang family has something going on all the time." Han Tong said, scratching his head. The Wang family in Taiyuan is not far from his home. He pestered his wife to marry him because the Wang family was very famous in their area. He pestered her and finally succeeded.

Precisely because it is not too far away, Han Tong would visit his father-in-law's house if he returned home during the holidays. However, Wang from Taiyuan felt that the house was always empty every time she went there, with few people around.

"Actually, this is pretty good." Qian Xin said, "Anyway, my wife is very unhappy about this. She said that the Cui family is just a bunch of rude people!"

"My family's situation is similar." Old Fu followed suit and said, "I think the Wang family's behavior is good. They didn't say anything, which shows that they don't have any thoughts about you. This is a good thing. I feel that the Taiyuan Wang family is more reliable."

"The Yuan family didn't say anything." Wang Wu curled his lips and said, "The Yuan family has no interest in the fiefdom, but they are interested in us. Whenever we go there during festivals, they ask us if we want to change jobs. If we do, they will give us a piece of land, and we can also become a military commander and lead a thousand people. They never ask us for anything else, just let us change jobs."

The others were so embarrassed after hearing this. The Yuan family is really awesome.

"Don't the Yuan family know that you are General Guan's personal guard?" Qian Xin said with a curled mouth.

"My father-in-law said, is this important?" Wang Wu wiped his face and said.

The whole audience was speechless, and it seemed that what was to be said was really not that important.

Just one word, send
