After two years of soul travel, Su Fan was like a little transparent in this world. But here in Wu County, he means the existence of one and two.
After all, as a direct disciple of the Yuwen clan, outsiders didn't know that he was 'demoted'. There was no official in Wu County, big or small, who didn't want to curry favor with him.
But Su Fan didn't care. He had been practicing in the prefect's mansion for the past two years, and he had firmly controlled the eight hundred soldiers of Wu County.
Almost all other government affairs were handed over to his deputy Jun Cheng.
The reason why he controls the army is to prepare for the future. Of course, he has no intention of conquering the world.
In his opinion, this world is an era where force is the rule. If you have reached the level of Grand Master, you can definitely affect the war situation of a country.
Not to mention the reasons why Yang Guang failed in his three expeditions to Goguryeo in history, in this world, Su Fan learned that the reason why Yang Guang failed was because of the great master of Goguryeo.
Originally, for the first time, Yang Guang had already reached the capital of Goguryeo, but Fu Cailin killed him in the Chinese army's camp, forcing Yang Guang to retreat.
The second time, Yang Guang suffered a loss, but he was on guard. There were three more master-level experts in the camp. However, this time Fu Cailin did not assassinate him, but chose to defend in the capital.
He is like a demon god, and he is an army. With the capital alone, Yang Guang's army has never been able to break through.
Without Fu Cailin, Yang Guang's army would have broken the capital of Goguryeo long ago.
It was precisely because of this that Su Fan understood that in this world, the strong have the ability to decide who belongs to the world. Just like in the original work, if the two boys of Shuanglong had not withdrawn themselves, it would have been impossible for Li Shimin to win the world.
At that time, Ssangyong was already a great master, and although the Buddhist sect that supported Li Shimin had experts, they were definitely no match for Ssangyong.
Su Fan knew that the Yuwen family had ambitions, but unfortunately they were destined to become a stepping stone for Shuanglong.
He didn't think about changing. What he wanted was to make himself strong. As long as he was strong, no matter what if Yu Wenhua and the others failed. If he could save them, he would be considered worthy of this body.
Of course, if a person is strong, he also needs some helpers. He cannot do everything by himself.
Therefore, the soldiers from Wu County became his target.
After time travel, he selected 800 people from around Wu County to become his direct descendants, and then handed over the foundation of his physical martial arts to these people.
Practicing physical martial arts and exercising the physical body does not require any qualifications. Compared with internal strength, it is very advantageous in this aspect.
As long as you have enough resources, no matter who you are, you can practice.
As a direct disciple of the Yuwen family, Su Fan naturally has no shortage of money. ,
Regardless of whether the Yuwen family gave up on Su Fan or not, the Yuwen family didn't need to provide what he needed. Many people who fawned over him had prepared it for him.
.....
"Li Juncheng, what's going on?"
After completing the practice, Su Fan heard that his servants had come to report that the county magistrate was looking for him. He was a little curious, so he came to the front yard of the prefect's mansion to hold office.
Looking at the anxious Jun Cheng, Su Fan looked lazy and looked like a playboy disciple.
"My prefect, it's not good. Recently, a group of refugees came to Wu County."
"Refugees, what's all the fuss about?"
When Su Fan heard this, he was very calm. Yang Guang's second expedition to Goguryeo failed. Now there are refugees fleeing everywhere. In Yangzhou, a large number of refugees from the north have also arrived. It is not surprising that there are refugees in Wu County.
"Prefect Yuwen, tens of thousands of refugees have arrived in Wu County. What should we do?"
"They are hungry, but they are going to attack the county government."
"Haha! Then don't let them go hungry. How much food does the government government have now? Let's arrange some disaster relief first, then gather them and arrange them to do things. It happens that the county government's water canal is paralyzed and can be repaired."
Su Fan naturally didn't care. He came from a later generation and worked for relief. He still knew that as long as the refugees were given a bite to eat, they would never riot.
Unless you can't survive.
"But, this requires a lot of food, and the government may not have enough."
In fact, the foundation of the Great Sui Dynasty is very strong. After all, during the founding period, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty accumulated a family fortune, that is, Yang Guang, a prodigal son, has been defeated for more than ten years, and still has not been completely ruined. The reason why the Tang Dynasty was able to go from the founding of the country to the prosperous age so quickly , which absorbed a large part of the Sui Dynasty's heritage.
The Han Dynasty experienced the rule of Wenjing and Emperor Wu's Northern Expedition to the Grassland, which lasted for decades, and the Tang Dynasty also had many years.
The major granaries of the Sui Dynasty were full, otherwise Yang Guang could have conquered Goguryeo three times in three years.
Although Wujun is not very wealthy, there is still a certain amount of food in the government office.
"Not enough! What's going on? Could it be that someone is embezzling?"
Su Fan's eyes suddenly became sharp, and Li Ya's heart jumped when he saw it. He didn't expect that this playboy disciple in front of him could be so powerful and coercive.
"Prefect, in the past two years, you have brought a lot of food and grass from the government office for the army."
Not daring to neglect, for fear that Su Fan would think he was corrupt, he quickly revealed the whereabouts of the grain and grass in the government office.
"Uh! That's right."
When Su Fan heard this, he immediately touched his nose in embarrassment. He had really forgotten that the eight hundred county soldiers were his private soldiers.
Of course, Su Fanna used the government to cultivate his own private soldiers quite smoothly.
"Give it out first. If it's not enough, ask the families to borrow some."
Su Fan came casually. Anyway, the families in Wu County are all very rich. The powerful people in these places have accumulated tens, hundreds, or even hundreds of years, and none of them is rich.
Borrowing some grain would not burden him at all.
As for not borrowing it, what a joke, I don’t want to mess around anymore, who is Su Fan, a direct disciple of the Yuwen family.
The Yuwen family is one of the four great clans, and even has the faint power of the first clan. After all, the Yuwen family is what Yang Guang trusts the most now.
Although people everywhere are in dire straits at the moment, and some are still rebelling, no one thinks that the Sui Dynasty is over.
The power of the Tigers of the Sui Dynasty was still there, and the Yuwen clan had great influence in the court.
Su Fan was just borrowing some food, not digging their ancestral graves or disturbing their foundations.
As long as you are not a fool, you will not refuse, and you will give as much as you can.
So when Li Ya heard Su Fan's words, he did not refute, because he knew that in Su Fan's name, he could naturally borrow some.
"In addition, apart from building canals, there are still wastelands around Wu County. Let them open up wastelands."
Although Su Fan didn't intend to conquer the world, it was impossible for Su Fan to make no preparations.
Eight hundred private soldiers from the county were his first step. The second step was to make Wu County his base.
With the power of the Yuwen family, it would be quite easy for him to take down Wujun. Wujun had many powerful people, big and small, but as long as they didn't touch their foundation, no one would bother him.
And even if it moves, it actually doesn't matter.
As long as he is strong enough, what if he can take down all the powerful men in Wu County? It is possible that he can turn the world upside down.
"Okay, Governor"
Li Ya was just a diligent old scalper at the moment. He could only do whatever Su Fan asked him to do. Otherwise, how could he, a descendant of a first-class humble family, be able to sit on the throne of the county magistrate.
It wasn't because Su Fan saw that he was obedient.
