Chapter 443 Hua Xin's Decision

These old big families in Jiangdong may not know that, over the past few years, their sphere of influence has been infiltrated by the hidden guards little by little.It is inevitable that there will be dead branches in a big tree, not to mention Jia Xu's methods, after Li Ru joined, he intensified his penetration.

"They are smart!" Li Ming picked up the information and lit it in the censer. The censer of this era is a bit like a tripod, but it has a lid and it is filled with spices. When it is lit while reading, it can calm down, improve the quality of reading, and relieve fatigue.

Now there is a little more smoke and fire in this fragrance.Looking at the burnt paper in the incense burner, Li Ming opened the window, which made the air in the room much fresher.

The four families intend to give in and get closer to Li Ming politically. With this, as long as the investigation continues, Li Ming doesn't mind pulling them into his core political circle.In any case, these four families have been operating in Jiangdong for three to four hundred years, and with the support of the Han Dynasty, they have a good influence in Wu County, Kuaiji County, and even the entire Yangzhou.

Six days later, an official document from Kuaiji County came to Hua Xin's desk.

Hua Xin opened the official document and read it again and again. The content in it was just one thing. I hope he can suppress the Shanyue bandits in Yuzhang County and those bandits, and ensure the safety and smoothness of the trade route from Damo to Nanchang.

Li Ming spent a lot of effort last year to open up the Wuyi Mountain trade route and build a water trade route from Damo to Nanchang.However, in the last month, bandits have appeared on this trade route. Many evidences indicate that this group of bandits came from Luoxia Mountain, which is the junction of Yuzhang County and Changsha County. It is also a place where a large number of mountains are entrenched. And back.

The reason is that once Simpi conquers, these Yue people will hide in Yuzhang County and continue to plunder Luling to Xingan. Recently, I may have heard that a caravan is coming from Damo, so they left It's far away, and it's directly entrenched in the mountains and forests around Wannian Township. Fortunately, it didn't embarrass Huangzhuang in Wannian Township and Princess Wannian inside.

If so, Huangzhuang has already sent people over to ask for help, so it is not an option to keep the thieves hovering inside like this.

"Hey, isn't this embarrassing me?" Hua Xin just felt a headache. Last year, he finally left Chang'an, a place of right and wrong, with some excuses. As a result, he had just entered Xuzhou, but was appointed by Liu Ting as the prefect of Yuzhang.

He has only been here for three months, and so many things have happened, he was not even given time to integrate Yuzhang's forces.

Now there are no soldiers, no one, and the county magistrates below are doing their own thing, and don't take him as the sheriff at all.He has only initially established friendly relations with various families and has not yet received their support. How should he deal with this matter now? !

"Li Ming is trying to make trouble for me..." Hua Xin was not stupid. He knew exactly what was behind this official document that seemed to be protecting the chamber of commerce.

The world is in chaos, the heroes are divided, and Li Ming occupies Kuaiji County, but Wu County and Danyang County are pressing on his head.If there is no way out, then he can only be trapped to death in Kuaiji County. Based on the actual situation in Kuaiji County, the food problem can kill him.

As for Fujian County, which had just been announced to the world, Hua Xin also dismissed it. There are wild lands everywhere, which are not suitable for farming at all.To be honest, he has plans to set aside the south of Luling to become an independent county. There are also mountains everywhere, and the finances are largely supplemented by the county town in the north of Yuzhang, which is completely holding back the entire county.

The point is, it's not suitable for farming, and there are monsters and mountains haunting it, and the public security is very unstable... It's a pity that he tried the words of the aristocratic family in Yuzhang County, and they didn't seem to like it. In order to get their support, In order to ensure the real control of Yuzhang County, Hua Xin had to continue to carry this 'burden'.

"He's making excuses!" Hua Xin flipped through the document again, "Yes, he intends to take this opportunity to intervene in Yuzhang County! If my guess is right, he will send another document to warn him in the short term. I will send out troops at a certain time... I have no soldiers under my command, and Yuzhang County is too short to recruit people... Why not..."

Three days later, sure enough, Hua Xin received another official document from Kuaiji County, this time it was not a request, but a warning.He warned Hua Xin that he must exterminate the thieves, otherwise, in order to protect the interests of the merchants in Kuaiji County, they had to send troops to fight against them.

"It's fake to seek thieves, but it's true to attack Guo with false ways!" Hua Xin threw the official document aside in disdain, then picked up a white silk, and wrote vigorously.

Three days later, this reply came to Li Ming's desk.Li Ming suddenly received Hua Xin's reply letter, and Li Ming couldn't help being surprised. It is said that he would never have the ability to get a thief. Did he reply at this time because he was planning to abuse himself from a moral standpoint?
After opening it, I realized that I was wrong. It turned out that Hua Xin directly admitted in the official document that he had just arrived in Yuzhang County.Therefore, I hope that Li Ming will send troops to help in the conquest, and at the same time be stationed in Yuzhang County to 'deter Xiaoxiao'.

"Hua Xin is also aware of current affairs. This is to dedicate Yuzhang County to Riyao!" Xun Biao read Hua Xin's reply and smiled slightly.

"I received information that the governor and captain of the county in Yuzhang County are old. Do you think they should be replaced by the way? After all, before Hua Xin took office, they also shouldered the responsibility of guarding the land. Such thieves are rampant. There are several scapegoats, right?" Li Ming thought for a while and said.

As for whether the two are old, that is what he decides, even if they are 30 or [-] years old, it doesn't matter, why should they not be allowed to age prematurely? !
"It's not necessary. If we want to really control Yuzhang County, we must establish a good relationship with the local aristocratic family." After all, Xun Biao was born in an aristocratic family, and his thinking mode still tends to unite with the aristocratic family rather than suppress it.

After thinking for a while, he continued: "Yuzhang County is very similar to Kuaiji County. The county is so big that it can be divided into two counties. If the time comes, I will invite the governor to set aside another county. The old The county magistrates and captains have served in the past, so they can be regarded as waste utilization!"

"It's just Chen Wen's place, maybe there will be some opinions?" Li Ming had to consider Chen Wen's feelings.

"He found that there is no way for Danyang County to stop us at the same time, so he can only give up the suppression, and may even give up the four Jiangdong counties. But out of respect, let him be appointed as the county guard, and see who he can appoint to come over. " Xun Biao replied.

"That's right, it's the boss after all, I still respect him a lot!" Li Ming nodded, and the civil servants around heard this, and agreed with him with a smile.

If you look carefully, you will find that not only the original confidantes are present at the meeting, but Zhu Shi, Gu Shi, Lu Shi and Wei Shi are also present.Just three days ago, the four companies completely gave up their shares in the Kuaiji Chamber of Commerce. Li Ming also reciprocated, promising to pay them dividends for 20 years according to today's standards.

Twenty years later, the new generation has grown up, and even the third generation has appeared. If it cannot grow up with this generous dividend, then it can only be said that it deserves to decline.

Also because of their stance, Li Ming formally regards them as his confidantes.He knew that he hadn't completely subdued them yet, but this thing was like boiling a frog in warm water, so there was no rush!
"Then, let's discuss the matter of dispatching troops!" Li Ming looked at the crowd, and they immediately became serious.

 Ask for collection, ask for recommendation!
