This pasture is where the Wang family raises and grazes cattle and sheep. Of course, whether they are cattle or sheep, the Wang family uses them all for sale and for their own consumption.
As for the fact that the law prohibits eating cows, given the court's current control capabilities, this order is of no avail to the family.
Those who can afford to buy beef and mutton are not ordinary people, and no one dares to ignore the law.
As for the real people, they are lucky if they can eat a few bites of pork throughout the year. If they eat beef, they would never dare to dream of such a beautiful thing.
But Zhao Yanhuan's first reaction when she saw this pasture was that she finally had a place to raise horses.
The most important weapon in war is cavalry. Cavalry cannot do without good horses.
Especially for cavalry who can go deep alone, each cavalry must be equipped with at least three horses, and the requirements for horses are extremely high.
In order to raise horses, Zhao Yanhuan had even searched for horse-raising talents in advance. However, there was no place to raise horses in large quantities, and now this place was here.
Zhao Yanhuan happily led his men to inspect the pasture. During this inspection, Zhao Yanhuan discovered that the cattle and sheep on the pasture were still left on the pasture and had not been taken away by the government, which surprised Zhao Yanhuan.
What Zhao Yanhuan didn't know was that because this pasture was not in Yi'an Prefecture, it was originally left by the officials of Yi'an Prefecture to prepare for internal division.
That's why the cattle and sheep on the pasture were not confiscated by the government, but were left on the pasture to be divided among the officials after discussion.
Who knew that the gift Zhao Yanhuan gave Wei Yizhe was so suitable for him.
In addition to being extremely expensive, this gift also means that Zhao Yanhuan, who gave this heavy gift, not only has no intention of relying on Mr. Dong's power to suppress him, but also attaches great importance to him and has given him enough benefits and face.
Wei Yizhe, who was still dissatisfied at first, immediately became convinced and was bribed by Zhao Yanhuan's generosity. He sent a steward who represented his attitude to help Zhao Yanhuan collect the land left by the Wang family.
Because of the money given by Zhao Yanhuan, the housekeeper worked very hard to deliver all the land of the Wang family to Zhao Yanhuan without missing a beat.
With the steward who represents Wei Yizhe's attitude here, no matter how unwilling the officials in Yi'an Prefecture are, they can only spit out the benefits they have received.
The cattle and sheep that had not had time to be divided up by the officials also followed the pasture, and they all stayed to benefit Zhao Yanhuan.
Of course, Zhao Yanhuan always did things without leaving any consequences. After she took over all the land, she did not ignore these officials.
Instead, he prepared gifts, went to the door in person, and gave all the officials heavy gifts according to their official positions.
Even the yamen officers, the police officers, and the soldiers from the state capital each gave five kilograms of rice, which was very good.
Among these officials, the most powerful one was his colleague Feng Baoling, so the first person Zhao Yanhuan went to was Feng Baoling's family.
Feng Baoling received Zhao Yanhuan very warmly throughout the entire process, and when Zhao Yanhuan left, he personally escorted her out the door.
After Zhao Yanhuan left, Feng Baoling admired the ancient paintings sent by Zhao Yanhuan with great fondness.
He doesn't like any rare treasures. His favorite thing in life is calligraphy and painting. Zhao Yanhuan's painting has been sent to his heart.
Feng Baoling's eldest son, Feng Shuren, was beside him. He looked at the calligraphy and painting in Feng Baoling's hands and frowned: "Dad, this woman gave you a big loss when she first came up. You're just going to admit defeat? Don't you want to get the situation back?"
Feng Baoling put away the smile on his face and looked at his eldest son. He couldn't help but frown and said with disdain: "She is still a human being, but she is still a woman. She is younger than you. She has a clever mind and a smooth approach."
"Look at you, you can't even see clearly what our family's situation is now. It's so annoying that people are comparing themselves to each other. If you can give birth to a child like this, why should the offspring be a boy?"
Feng Shuren said a little unconvinced: "Dad, why do you admire that woman so much? Isn't it because she has Prime Minister Dong's back that she dares to show off like this?"
Feng Baoling resisted the urge to look up to the sky and sigh, and asked his son: "If Prime Minister Dong's deterrent is really so powerful, why did we intercept the things that Prime Minister Dong designated for her before?"
"this……"
Feng Shuren was speechless.
Feng Baoling broke it open, crushed it into pieces, and explained to Feng Shuren: "That's because, although Prime Minister Dong seems to attach great importance to Zhao Yanhuan, he actually doesn't attach as much importance to him as he shows."
"The Wang family is said to be an aristocratic family. It covers the sky with one hand in Yi'an Prefecture. It only relies on pleasing the big family behind the flattery and sending money to Wei Zhizhou to become very powerful."
"Our Yi'an Prefecture is just a remote island. The big families don't like it, so they let the Wang family occupy this place to dominate. People like Prime Minister Dong crushed his family with a wave of their hands. They are not worthy of the Wang family's reliance. The family is facing off against Dong Cheng."
"The truly unshakable person in our Yi'an Prefecture is Wei Yizhe, the governor of the state. He comes from the Wei family, one of the four major families, and his background is strong enough. Although he dare not defy Prime Minister Dong openly, he can do so openly and secretly."
"That's why we officials in Yi'an Prefecture dare to seize the land designated by Prime Minister Dong to Zhao Yanhuan, because this is actually tacitly approved by Wei Zhizhou."
"It is impossible for Prime Minister Dong not to know that Wei Yizhe, the Zhizhou, is the most difficult to deal with compared to the Wang family, but he did not help Zhao Yanhuan handle the relationship with Wei Zhizhou."
"This means that although Prime Minister Dong values Zhao Yanhuan, he doesn't value her that much. At least it's not worth fighting Wei Yizhe, who is from the Wei family, for her."
"This is also the reason why we officials dare to covet the land that should be given to Zhao Yanhuan, because Wei Zhizhou is on our side."
"If Zhao Yanhuan is not clever enough and really thinks that with the support of Prime Minister Dong, she can control the situation in our Yi'an Prefecture, then she will be waiting to be stripped to pieces by the officials of our Yi'an Prefecture. "
"Unfortunately, our calculations were wrong. This person is not only reliable as Prime Minister Dong, but also has great skills. He took care of Wei Zhizhou first and made Wei Zhizhou stand on her side."
"By borrowing Wei Zhizhou's power in this way, she swiftly and resolutely collected all the land that the Wang family should give her, and also beat up those of us officials who depended on Wei Zhizhou's face to survive."
"She is a strong foreign dragon, and we officials are the local snakeheads. No matter how powerful she is, we have to endure it here, and the dragon enters the shallows. But she happened to be able to make friends with the local snakeheads as soon as she arrived, so we must Bow and obey orders.”
"At this point, she has been able to travel unimpeded in our Yi'an Prefecture, but when she is so powerful, she is willing to stoop to the door and send us heavy gifts to our defeated generals, giving us a very decent step."
Feng Baoling once again couldn't help but sigh: "You are so young at this age, but you are so skilled. You are so tough that no one dares to look down upon you, you are so smooth and don't embarrass anyone, and you make friends in all directions without making enemies. It's really amazing, so amazing!"
After sighing, he looked at his son who looked stupid at Yunshan mist. Feng Baoling said with disgust again: "You are not like me at all. Go ahead and study. If you are stupid, you should study more."
