Longevity: I want to enjoy wealth and honor in the world

"Rebels are everywhere, refugees are rampant? How come?" Wang Mingyuan was stunned by what Feng Tianzong said.

Wang Mingyuan had never thought that the gentry in the city secretly controlled the city guards.

The gentry were so crazy that they dared to command the city guards to attack Feng Tianzong's mansion in broad daylight. It was beyond his imagination. These gentry did not take the king's law or him, the county magistrate, seriously.

When he saw Feng Tianzong, he thought Feng Tianzong had escaped and asked him for protection.

But as a county magistrate, he could not protect himself after losing control of the city guards, and could not protect Feng Tianzong at all. Even if Feng Tianzong had a handle on him, he had no way.

"Your Excellency the county magistrate may not know that the city guards colluded with the rebels to rebel, and the refugees in the city also rose up one after another, slaughtering the gentry and the wealthy everywhere, and opening the warehouses to release grain. The city is now completely in chaos." Feng Tianzong explained to Wang Mingyuan with a smile.

Wang Mingyuan was no ordinary man, and he understood the current situation in just a few words.

It was obvious that the gentry who mobilized the army was defeated. Although they had tried to overestimate the ability of Master Feng, they still underestimated it.

The gentry mobilized a thousand elite soldiers of the city guards, but now they have to face the fate of death and annihilation of their clan.

Wang Mingyuan's forehead was sweating instantly. He was now forced into a desperate situation. The refugees in the city rebelled and the city guards were annihilated. This result was something that he, a small seventh-rank official, could not bear.

"Master Feng, you are still one step ahead. Those gentry did not know their own strength and dared to attack you. They really deserved to die.

But I ask Master Feng to be magnanimous and give them a chance. Don't do things to the extreme. You must know that the relationship between the gentry is complicated, and many of the gentry's families have connections directly to the city." Wang Mingyuan persuaded.

"Even if they have a powerful background, what can it do? I didn't kill them, but the rebels did. I just came to the county magistrate to seek refuge." Feng Tianzong said lightly.

"Master Feng, let's not beat around the bush. To what extent do you plan to retaliate?" Wang Mingyuan said with a desperate look.

Feng Tianzong smiled lightly and did not cover up any more: "The refugees in the city are rampant. I'm afraid they will not retreat until all the gentry in the city are killed."

Wang Mingyuan thought that those gentry were ruthless people, but he didn't expect Feng Tianzong to be even more ruthless. He actually wanted to kill all the gentry and their families. How many people would die? I'm afraid the whole inner city would be a river of blood.

Wang Mingyuan knew that he was powerless to stop it, so he sighed and said, "How do you want to cooperate with me, Master Feng?"

Wang Mingyuan himself was not a good thing. He was a corrupt official, and Feng Tianzong had evidence of his crimes. He could kill him at any time.

At this point, he naturally knew what to choose.

"After the refugees have looted the wealthy families of the gentry in the city, they will probably flee in all directions. The credit for suppressing the rebellion will naturally go to you, sir.

After the gentry died, the fields in their families naturally became ownerless land. I hope to buy them." Feng Tianzong said generously.

Eighty percent of the fields in the city are concentrated in the hands of the gentry. If Feng Tianzong takes over these fields, wouldn't Liaoyuan City be named Feng in the future?

But now that things have come to this, he has no choice. He can only nod depressedly and say, "This matter can be handled."

"Okay, okay, a man who knows the times is a hero. Let me wait until tomorrow and let my housekeeper handle this matter.

After receiving the fields, I don't have enough manpower at the moment. Please ask the county magistrate to send someone to help me manage for a while to avoid any chaos." Feng Tianzong said with satisfaction.

I have agreed to major matters and help to receive and manage them. Naturally, I will not refuse such a small matter. Wang Mingyuan also agreed with a depressed look.

The sound of fighting in the city lasted for a day and a night. Under Kaohsiung's leadership, all the gentry were killed. Many refugees took the opportunity to kill and set fire, causing a lot of chaos in the city.

Feng Tianzong then sent out the iron puppet to rectify the city's law and order, clean up those who took advantage of the fire to rob and the lawless.

"Master, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission. Now the city has settled down. These are the house deeds and land deeds found from the rebels." Kaohsiung knelt on his knees and reported.

He didn't think that his previous little tricks could be hidden from Feng Tianzong. At this moment, he only hoped to atone for his sins and give him a chance to live.

Feng Tianzong looked at the thick stack of land deeds in his hand, 120,000 acres of fertile land. So many local tyrants and evil gentry, but they didn't have as much land as the Zhou family.

Although the Zhou family is the largest family in the city, it is not so strong that one family can occupy half of the city.

"The gentry in the city, is there only this little land?" Feng Tianzong said dissatisfiedly.

"Master, maybe there are some that are better hidden and we didn't find them in a hurry, or maybe some were burned in the fire last night." Kaohsiung explained carefully.

"Last night was chaotic, and there must be many people who took advantage of the situation to enrich themselves. There should be many such people in the Eight Evils Gang.

You take my servants now and chop off all these people who took advantage of the situation. Then send their heads to the county government and say they were the rebels last night." Feng Tianzong ordered.

He felt that this was a good opportunity to purify the team and select his own people. First, clear out the overly greedy guys from the team.

Kaohsiung's face turned pale. He knew very well what kind of people in his Eight Evils Gang were like. In the situation last night, everyone took the opportunity to make a fortune. Many people even took the opportunity to rob many women from the homes of the gentry. Including himself, he also secretly intercepted a lot of money.

"Master, last night was chaotic, and many refugees took the opportunity to rob a lot of property and escaped. This kind of thing is really impossible to trace." Kaohsiung said with embarrassment.

This reason seems reasonable, but Kaohsiung, as the leader of the gang, may not know how much the minions under him stole, but he can't be unaware of how much his confidants took. Things like gold, silver and copper coins are very heavy. How much can a person hide?

Feng Tianzong shook his head disappointedly and said, "I wanted to give you a chance, but unfortunately you didn't grasp it."

"Master, I was wrong. Please forgive me once." Seeing that the situation was not good, Kaohsiung begged hurriedly.

Feng Tianzong raised his hand and a palm thunderbolt was thrown out. Before the thunderbolt came close to him, a shield made of green airflow suddenly appeared on Kaohsiung's body.

When the palm thunderbolt came close to him, the green airflow flowed violently, making the whole shield shine with the light of thunderbolt, but it still blocked it.
