Jiang Tuo sold a lot of books and also made a lot of money.
He invested the money in construction and worked with major wealthy families to build official offices, houses, water conservancy projects, bridges, etc. Various activities were organized in the name of the government to allow the people of the city to go out to watch and play.
He also took the lead in hosting a banquet in a restaurant in the city and invited the children of the wealthy family to participate. For a time, the children of the wealthy family developed a tendency of comparison and competed to participate in various activities, making the city of Liangzhou very lively.
The people in the city were not idle either. They relied on working hard for the government and wealthy families to make a living. In addition to the small traders who worked and set up stalls, there were at least tens of thousands of people every day.
Some officials couldn't stand it and kindly reminded Jiang Tuo not to have too much fun and ignore government affairs. This is a public-private act that damages the people's power.
Jiang Tuo ignored it, although on the surface, there was indeed a trend of extravagance in the entire city. The children of wealthy families competed for pleasure, and the common people were tired and busy every day.
But in fact, Longxi County quickly recovered from the pain after the war. The people did not flee and fled, and the people were able to have enough to eat.
This is the work-for-relief that is often mentioned in later generations. The more famine the year is, the more it is necessary to stimulate the wealthy families to build large-scale construction projects, and the more money must be circulated, so that the common people can have a way to survive.
At the same time, because he sold many books to those wealthy families, Jiang Tuo and these wealthy families have now entered the honeymoon period. Not only are they inseparable, they can also be said to be in love.
In the eyes of those wealthy families, Jiang Tuo had already sold the government's collection of books to them.
It seems that the governor is sincerely interested in them!
As long as they make achievements in Longxi County and let Jiang Tuo give a few nice words to Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, then the good days of these wealthy families... are coming!
Jiang Tuo doesn't think so. The more he hangs out with these wealthy families, the more desperate Jiang Tuo becomes for them.
A group of maggots that only know how to lie down on the huge empire of the big man and suck the blood!
Jiang Tuo is not opposed to waste, and he also likes ostentation. The clothes he wears are all brand new, the carriages he rides in are very luxurious, and he is not stingy with rewards for his subordinates.
If the wealthy family members were just extravagant and wasteful, Jiang Tuo wouldn't be so angry.
The main reason is that these children of wealthy families do not regard the common people as human beings at all, and often take pleasure in mocking the common people.
He saw that some children of wealthy families deliberately stunk the meat in their homes, and then found a group of beggars and threw the meat to them.
Those hungry beggars immediately picked up the meat and ate it, regardless of whether it was clean or not.
Some people even beat their heads to pieces in order to snatch meat.
These wealthy children stood in the distance, laughing loudly and pointing at the beggars, as if they were the saviors of these beggars.
In their eyes, these beggars are nothing but a laughing stock.
Of course, the most cruel thing is that they feed women who have just given birth to babies, use their breast milk to feed piglets and some livestock, and then kill the livestock for meat.
A bottomless class gap has emerged between the wealthy families and the common people!
Until their death, these poor people may still think that they are so poor because they don't work hard enough or make progress enough!
As everyone knows, the wealthy family has blocked their upward channels, leaving them miserable all their lives just working for the wealthy family.
In the evening, Jiang Tuo and the wealthy children finished their meal and were walking back alone. When the cool breeze blew, they suddenly became more awake and kept thinking in their hearts.
These wealthy families are already terminally ill. It is difficult and difficult to change their minds and succeed.
So Jiang Tuo felt that changes should be made physically.
The transformation period was only eighteen years. After eighteen years of reconstruction, these wealthy families have all become ordinary people, and they will no longer be so extravagant.
He asked Lu Qing to contact Geng Bin, who had joined the mountain as a bandit, and learned that Geng Bin was now developing well. He had occupied Jitou Mountain, integrated several nearby mountain villages, and became a veritable king of the mountain.
But this is far from enough to pose a threat to the wealthy clan.
Jiang Tuo shook his head, thinking about what to do next.
He turned a corner, but his mouth was covered by a delicate hand, and then a cold dagger appeared on his neck, followed by a clear and cold voice: "Don't move, or you will die if you move!"
Jiang Tuo was stunned and quickly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"What did I ask you? What did you say? But don't shout. If you attract others, Dog Officer, I will kill you without mercy. Do you understand?"
Jiang Tuo whimpered and nodded.
After threatening him, the man released Jiang Tuo's mouth.
Jiang Tuo immediately flinched his neck and saw a girl in the darkness who was very delicate and beautiful, with skin as transparent as ice and snow, without a single flaw. Dressed in light blue clothes, she looked noble and elegant. At this moment, she was holding a dagger and staring at Jiang Tuo with clean eyes.
Jiang Tuo couldn't help but stare blankly for a moment.
"Let me ask you, you are such a dog official, how did you become the governor?"
Jiang Tuo looked at her directly and did not answer.
Anger flashed across her pretty face, she put the dagger close to Jiang Tuo, and said angrily: "I... I'm asking you a question, why don't you answer?"
"Ahem, cool, cool... please keep the knife farther away!" Jiang Tuo's neck shrank again, as if he had been chilled.
"Since you are afraid of the cold, why didn't you answer just now?"
Jiang Tuo coughed, shook his head and said: "I just caught a glimpse of the beauty of the heroine, and I was shocked for a moment. I was thinking in my heart, the fairies who descended to earth are just like this, right? It seems that we have met somewhere, maybe... in In a dream? Or maybe it was the five hundred times of looking back at the past life that led to this passing."
The woman's beautiful eyes widened and her pretty face turned slightly red. She had never seen such a shameless person.
He was here to assassinate him. What did he mean by these love words? Moreover, these words were really embarrassing. How could he say them so openly?
Taking advantage of the woman's surprise, Jiang Tuo quickly said: "I wonder what the heroine is kidnapping me for? For money or for people?"
Jiang Tuo kept thinking in his mind, has he provoked anyone these days?
Could it be the killers sent by those wealthy families? It shouldn't be. At this time, I and those wealthy families are in the honeymoon period, and there is no conflict.
Is that his former enemy?
That’s not right either.
Aren't killers supposed to look ferocious? Why would you send such a pretty girl? And judging from this girl's behavior, it's obvious that she doesn't kill people often, so why is she so hesitant?
Jiang Tuo added: "If the heroine is looking for money, the heroine can just say the number. Even if I sell the iron, I will get the money for the heroine. If not for anything else, just for our special fate this time!"
The woman shook her head and said, "Silver is of no use to me, I don't want it."
"Is that the figure?"
Jiang Tuo showed a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, spread his hands and said: "Young man, he is known as the whip king of Longxi. He is so good at whipping with his long whip that I don't know how many people fell in front of me. Even if I am exhausted from fighting today, I still want to make the heroine happy. !”
The woman looked Jiang Tuo up and down and asked curiously: "You can also use a whip? Are you very good at martial arts?"
Jiang Tuo nodded without changing his expression and said: "Yes, this whip has been cast for more than ten years. It can be long or short, soft or hard. It has not been used yet. If you use it, you will see blood!"
"Can I have a look?"
"Okay." Jiang Tuo started to take off his pants without saying a word.
"What are you doing?" The woman was shocked.
"Hero, don't you want to see the whip?"
The woman was stunned and scolded: "Who would hide the whip in their pants? You... don't take it off, don't take it off, why are you such a gangster?!"
Jiang Tuo immediately pulled up his pants, took two steps back, turned around suddenly, and ran away like crazy, shouting at the same time: "Kill..."
Just after shouting two words, he saw a cold light flash in front of his eyes, and a bunch of hair on his temples fell off. Jiang Tuo was shocked. He was so fast with his sword, and his martial arts skills were even better than Lu Qing's.
The heroine opposite was covered in cold air, which seemed to freeze Jiang Tuo.
He looked down and saw the dagger was placed on his neck again, then turned his head and smiled awkwardly: "If I said I had a leg cramp just now, would you believe it?"
The heroine's beautiful eyes stared at Jiang Tuo, and three words burst out from her mouth: "Young disciple!"
