Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Chapter 480 The countryside surrounds the city

Wei Yi was stunned for a moment, and soon he thought of something, and he took a deep breath, this... this... this matter... is not difficult to figure out.

Because, what he knew was the shopkeeper Hu in front of him, and it wasn't his Wei family who contacted Huayin County. The other party also contacted several other small families. These small families can basically cover the entire Huayin County.

If all the families have signed contracts with His Highness... This means that Wei Yi didn't dare to say anything more, because His Highness has already moved the most important things of those powerful families!

It is true that the aristocratic family has mastered the knowledge, so they can control the court and have such a deep influence.

But again, they also need resources!Cut off all their sources of income, let alone all of them, cut off most of their sources of income... It can be said that His Highness directly dug out their foundations!

Wei Yi was deeply shocked. Is this the handwriting of His Highness King Qin?It turns out that things like Datang Weekly are nothing more than small troubles?And His Highness regards the whole world as a chessboard, and it's not like Wei can't see how much a powerful family poses to the past dynasties, but he himself is also from a powerful family. Although he is lonely now, he is unwilling to break this system.

But now, when His Highness came to the door, Wei Yi knew that the times were changing, and the aristocratic family had to make changes, otherwise they could only be eliminated.

How brilliant was the Hedong Wei clan hundreds of years ago?Why has it fallen to this point now?Isn't it because it didn't conform to the times?

Hu Zheng naturally saw the change in Wei Yi's expression, but he was not surprised. If these patriarchs couldn't even understand this, then it wasn't worth His Highness's investigation for so long in the early stage to find them as partners.

"Patriarch Wei, His Highness once said that in today's world, the class of the Tang Dynasty has long been solidified. If you don't seek changes, you will be eliminated. The people of the world, including you poor families, merchants and business families, are like that winter. The fish school under the frozen lake, the common people are ordinary small fish, you are just a larger fish school, if the water surface is the dragon gate, and the really big family family is a fisherman who has crossed the lake surface and obtained evolution people."

"And now, the water surface that was originally Longmen has already been turned into solid ice by them."

"They feed on the flesh and blood of you and the people of the world. It seems that one or two rise up occasionally, but that's just a pothole that fishermen cut out on the ice under their control. Because there is a pothole, these groups The fish will swarm and peck at each other. It will be impossible to gather strength to break through the ice."

"So, if you want to rise up and cross the dragon gate on the water surface, what you have to do is not to find the pothole, but to break through the frozen lake!" Hu Zheng said calmly.

Wei Yi took a deep breath: "Shopkeeper Hu, you have been taught."

"Patriarch Wei is being polite. This is what His Highness said. Therefore, before concentrating enough strength to break the ice, please keep it a secret." Hu Zheng said with a faint smile.

"Don't worry, shopkeeper Hu, you and I know about this matter, and I will never disclose half of it to the outside world." Wei Yi said with a serious face.

"Well, I believe Patriarch Wei is wise enough to see clearly that His Highness King Qin does not lack the means to break the ice, but His Highness King Qin wants to give you and the people of the world a chance to participate. After all, in this process, there is always a priority. Set some examples, and the fish under the lake will be more powerful." Hu Zheng said with a smile.

Wei Yi nodded silently, his words were both a threat and an encouragement.The threat was to tell him that even if he told the news to those big powerful families, His Royal Highness King Qin didn't care, and there were ways to eliminate their influence.Needless to say, encouragement, outstanding people or families in this process will always be rewarded.

"If Your Highness has any orders in the future, shopkeeper Hu can just tell me." Wei Yi cupped his hands.

While Hu was negotiating with the Wei family, Shi Laojiu was listening to the village chief's speech in Dahe Township and Shijiawan Village on the outskirts of Shu, hundreds of miles away.

"This time, it is His Royal Highness King Qin's business firm that wants to sign a contract with us. Each of our households can plant fifteen acres of hemp crops, and then harvest and sell them to the caravan of His Highness Qin King at regular intervals. No need for everyone to spin and weave hemp crops." For the sale of linen, His Highness will give you a guaranteed purchase price of 2 stones and 5 per mu of land!"

"The so-called guarantee is that these hemp crops are purchased at a unit price per catty. If by the end of the year, the unit price of an acre of land you sell to His Highness exceeds the grain price of two stones and five, then the actual selling price will be used. If it is less than two stone five, then His Highness will make it up for everyone!" The village chief said to everyone in the village.

"This... Village Chief, is this okay?" Shi Laojiu hesitated and asked.

"What's the problem? Do you not trust His Highness King Qin?" the village chief looked at him and asked.

"No, the village chief read what you said, I don't trust others, how can I not trust His Royal Highness King Qin? Everyone knows how much more land we can cultivate with the few Quyuanli that we bought in our village last year. His Highness King Qin is Our savior, how could we not trust His Highness King Qin?" Shi Laojiu hurriedly said.

"It's just that I think it's not good for His Royal Highness King Qin. After all, this flax is worthless. Even if we weave it into flax by ourselves, we don't have much money in the end. Is it okay for His Highness to buy it at such a high price?" Shi Lao Jiu was a little worried.

He didn't understand the truth, he just didn't want His Royal Highness King Qin to lose money. In his heart, if His Highness King Qin didn't lose money, he might be able to provide them with more good things, which would be a good thing in the long run.

Although he is uneducated, he also understands the principle of having a full meal.

"Yes, village chief, in this case, His Royal Highness King Qin will have to spend a lot of money just for our village, not to mention that there should be similar policies in the ten miles and eight towns, so how much His Highness King Qin will spend in the entire Tang Dynasty. "Another villager couldn't help asking.

"What? His Royal Highness King Qin gave you the wrong money?" The village head scolded with a smile.

"No, I'm not the one who doesn't know good and bad, I just think that Your Highness has lost too much money... What if we don't have money to continue researching and developing farm tools... Didn't the carpenter who built the Quyuanli for us say that Did it? According to the Datang Weekly, His Royal Highness King Qin also spent a lot of money developing these agricultural tools!" The man said a little embarrassed.

"I can understand everyone's worries, but since His Highness asked us to do this, there must be a reason for His Highness, maybe His Highness wants these hemp to do bigger things, we can't delay His Highness's business, right? Let's talk , Think about it, isn’t His Highness giving you such a high purchase price just to make our people’s lives better?”

"We can't live up to His Highness's good intentions."
