When Rome was preparing to form a formal envoy to Kushan and the Han Dynasty, the news from the Han Dynasty through various channels also made the major families a little confused.
If the news of the enfeoffment was still circulating in the ears of the top-level aristocratic families before, their minds are still normal now, and the aristocratic families who have access to this level of news basically understand what this news means.
Needless to say, the aristocratic family that originally lent people to Old Yuan's family in Guandong was not bad. At least there was a broken jar. At worst, he could choose to join the old Yuan's pirate ship.
Except for the aristocratic families in Guanxi who have relatively good relations with the Huangfu family, the Zhu family, and Ma Rong's Ma family, all other families would have to vomit three liters of blood as long as they borrowed people from the Yuan family.
This wave of the Yuan family is really digging to the point of eradicating the roots. Now the old Yuan family has really offended about 40% of the aristocratic families in Kansai. But the old Yuan family has nothing to fear at this time. Just rely on you scum. Scumbag, you still want to counterattack my Yuan family?
You are thinking too much, wake up, it’s time for you to wake up. If you can do this kind of thing, our Yuan family will no longer be called a wealthy family in Guandong. What’s more, it’s not natural for us Guandong people to dig holes to bury you Kansai people. Is that what it should be? Hasn’t this kind of thing happened many times?
law? My Yuan family didn't say I won't pay it back, did you? Read it clearly. The previous document was written very clearly. If you can't pay back the IOU for twenty years by then, I will compensate you. Our old Yuan family pays you 60,000 yuan for an ordinary private slave. I will compensate you up to 80,000 yuan.
There is even interest. Including interest, it is almost 100,000 yuan per person. Look at the price Chen Xi charges is only about 30,000 yuan. The old Yuan family has given you three times the price, and you still have the nerve to sue. Our old Yuan family?
In the whole world, there is no price higher than that offered by our old Yuan family. Besides, the friction between our aristocratic families, you actually brought it to court, hahaha, where are your faces? What's more, it's written in black and white. The old Yuan family didn't defraud you of a penny. Do you really think you can win the lawsuit?
Wake up, you are a bunch of mentally retarded people. I, Yuan Jiaming, have told you, either do it with me and let my Yuan family absorb you Guanxi aristocratic families, or twenty years from now, you will watch other families seize territory and establish their own kingdoms and become kings. It’s your choice to stay in the country and eat dirt.
Anyway, our Yuan family will definitely not return the person to you. That document was made by someone from our family who specializes in law. There must be no loopholes. You should just give up on that.
Either obey and tie up the whole family, or get out. Twenty years from now, our old Yuan family will give you money, do whatever you want. Now you can sue if you want, while the old Yuan family goes to founding the country!
After the Guanxi family got the letter from the old Yuan family, they almost vomited blood and died. Looking at the black and white document, they were completely sure that this wave was really over. The old Yuan family did this deliberately to deceive them. A bunch of unlucky kids, the problem is that they really jumped into the trap.
"It's time for us to pack up and leave." Yuan Da, who came to Hanzhong in person, said to Yuan Sui, who was recruiting people in this area.
"It's a pity that it was exposed too early. If we can delay it for a while, we can probably take away more than 100,000 people from Hanzhong. Hanzhong County is indeed the place where Emperor Gaozu's dragon thrived." Yuan Sui said with a hint of pity, Hanzhong, which has never been affected by war, still has a population of almost 900,000 people.
After Yuan Sui came over, he deceived and fabricated well, and he had successfully defrauded hundreds of thousands of people during this period. However, even so, there was still a very big gap for Yuan Tan.
But for the current Yuan family, this is already the limit of their Yuan family. Even with various manpower, it is very difficult to transport hundreds of thousands of people completely.
After all, we have to get there alive, and we also have to transport enough people. Just for this, we need to equip enough doctors, herbs, food, supplies and other things, and the cost of these things is almost as much as Yuan The family's financial resources were completely wiped out.
"Well, let's wait. Besides, Yan Pu is very valuable to Xiansi now. He is very good at management and construction." Yuan Da pondered for a while and said.
"Then go there in person. Your identity is more suitable than mine." Yuan Sui sighed. He had contacted Yan Pu several times, but Yan Pu never gave a positive answer. Yuan Sui said with a sigh. There are so many things to do, so we really can’t waste time here.
"Okay, I'll contact Yan Pu." Yuan Da nodded and said.
In fact, when the Yuan family was discussing Yan Pu, Yan Pu was also looking through the information he collected from various places. Relying on the mind of a first-class civil servant, he had already deduced the general situation of the Yuan family from these clues.
[It is worthy of being a powerful family in Guandong. Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Yuan Tan are all worthy of being outstanding. And judging from the information collected from all over the country, the Han family is probably ready to let go of the enfeoffment system. Although I don’t know where the enfeoffment will be, it looks like The movement of the Yuan family, I am afraid that the enfeoffment has begun, and the materials, herbs, and doctors mobilized from the Yuan family...] Yan Pu thought with a solemn expression.
As civil servants who have reached this level, as long as they are willing to check, even if they cannot see the real whole picture, they can piece together too many things based on clues.
"A team of only two thousand people actually needs so many supplies and herbs, which means it will take almost three to four months to reach the distance on foot?" Yan Pu drew a circle on the map he assembled. .
[The Yuan family has taken the lead step by step, and Zhang Lu, this broken sampan, will capsize sooner or later. Wait until the Yuan family comes to find you, then you can vote. I was really blind back then. I actually chose that idiot Zhang Lu. After the news came from Yizhou that Guishang had defeated Liu Zhang, he did not want to put aside his personal grudges to help Liu Zhang, but actually thought of attacking Yizhou while it was empty! ] Yan Pu thought frantically.
Hanzhong placed some manpower in Yizhou, and Yizhou actually knew about it. To be precise, all princes would do such things as placing spies in enemy forces, but the level of spies placed in Hanzhong was too low.
In addition, Hanzhong was isolated and he did not participate in the last foreign war, so everyone isolated him. The information Zhang Lu received was not even as accurate as that obtained by the Central Plains family. At least those with good abilities in the Central Plains family knew how Liu Zhang was defeated. Why did he lose? Not only did he not underestimate Liu Zhang because of this, but he also praised him for his meritorious service in defending his territory.
After all, Guishuang was really tough this time. Just looking at the paper, you can tell that losing is normal. Liu Zhang's ability to hold on to this level was indeed unexpected.
However, the information obtained from Hanzhong was that Liu Zhang was defeated, his main force suffered heavy losses, and Yizhou was empty. Zhang Lu couldn't help but be overjoyed. Isn't this an opportunity for him to take over Sichuan and Shu by force?
After occupying Shu and Hanzhong in this way, we have the advantage of mountains and rivers, which can be attacked when advancing and defended when retreating. Even if we cannot occupy the entire Central Plains like Gaozu, we can still separate one side and claim hegemony.
What's more, in Zhang Lu's mind, Zhang Lu couldn't defeat Liu Zhang before because Liu Zhang had more soldiers and generals and relied on his numbers to bully him. Now Liu Zhang has lost his troops and generals. A few months ago, the Yuan family came to him and told him that Hanzhong was the land of Longxing and had the foundation of Emperor Gaozu, and now this happened.
Zhang Lu naturally believed that he was destined by destiny, and after decades of wasted time, it was time to unify the world like Liu Bang!
Therefore, Zhang Lu has recently begun to mobilize troops secretly, waiting for the right time to send troops to Yizhou, annex Sichuan and Shu, and then establish a country belonging to their Five Dou Rice Sect.
Even Yan Pu didn't want to dissuade this kind of behavior that was almost seeking death. Besides, he himself had been marginalized by Zhang Lu recently. Yan Pu was also happy and relaxed. Anyway, Yan Pu was basically waiting for Liu Zhang to seek death. He knew very well that Zhang Lu Lu could not defeat Liu Zhang.
Although Liu Zhang is still the same Liu Zhang, how can I put it, with the momentum that Liu Zhang had when he returned from Chang'an and carried the coffin through Hanzhong, Yan Pu knew that Zhang Lu would never be Liu Zhang's opponent in this life.
Even though this Liu Zhang is the same person as the Liu Zhang who once fought against Zhang Lu, the former is obviously no longer a scumbag because of the war and his mentality has changed, while Zhang Lu has fallen all the way from the original scumbag level. Totally hopeless.
Under this situation, Yan Pu has given up all hope for Zhang Lu. What he has to do now is to find a new home and leave. However, Yan Pu is now famous but not famous, and he has not done anything decent under Zhang Lu. score.
Even if he wanted to change jobs, he would probably have to start from the bottom as a county magistrate. Yan Pu, who had already wasted nearly ten years, did not want to spend another ten years going from county magistrate to two thousand shi. After all, his ability was not bad. Excellent, he could afford the official position of two thousand dan in the central government, but it is a pity that he never had such an opportunity.
[The only choice is the Yuan family. Although the older generation of the Yuan family has not stated it clearly, the fact that they have come several times has shown their attitude. I will not have such a chance if I join any other force now. Their The organizational structure has become stable, and I can only move up step by step. Alas, the Yuan family will be the Yuan family. ] Yan Pu thought with a wry smile.
Yan Pu can only hope that the Yuan family can give him a place to show his talents. Otherwise, he may only waste his life because of his blindness.
[Since I have no choice, I can only take a gamble. Since I have chosen the Yuan family, I will make plans for the Yuan family. If the Yuan family wants to establish a country, what they really need is population. Zhang Lu will inevitably fail in the next situation. Ah, well, well, this is an opportunity. 】 Yan Pu silently distributed the treasury. In this case, let's take it as a sign of promotion.
Anyway, Zhang Lu took this path, and no matter what he did, he would not be betraying his master. But before that, Yan Pu still needed to do one last thing, which was his obligation as a minister. He admonished Zhang Lu for the last time. This time Zhang Luruo still refused to listen, so Yan Pu no longer needed to be polite.
