Struggles from all over the Great Zhou Dynasty sent memorials to the court, expressing their willingness to bow their heads, but in secret they were watching the court's reaction and were ready to be at the gate of the Yuzhi army at any time.

After receiving these memorials, Tang Weiyi did not give a reply directly, but sent him to Pingzhou, hoping that Mo Zizai would decide how to deal with it.

But Mo Zizai's army had just arrived in Cangyi City at this time. Now he is busy dealing with the matter of Cangyi City. Obviously, he has no time to pay attention to those people, so he simply doesn't reply and leaves those people alone before talking about it. Anyway, it doesn't hurt to make them nervous for a few days.

Ducang took a group of officials from the county government to welcome him out of the city. After seeing the dragon chariot Mo Zizai was riding, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

As the name suggests, the Dragon Chariot is the emperor's car. Logically speaking, a prince, Mo Zizai, is not qualified to ride it. It's okay to sit in the palace usually, but now he's out to ride it, which is a bit too ostentatious.

However, Ducang is not a pedantic person after all. After thinking of Mo Zizai's identity, he shook his head.

Forget it, the throne should have been his. Now the man is just a couple. Although he thinks like this, he is a bit suspicious of disrespect for the throne, but the couple doesn’t say anything about it, so there is no need for him, a small county magistrate, to talk too much.

"Du Cang Yicheng County Magistrate Du Cang, I have met the prince."

Ducang led everyone to Mo Zizai's dragon chariot, and took everyone from the county government to salute Mo Zizai.

"Yeah, no gift."

Mo Zizai walked to the handrail of the dragon chariot, waved his hand at Ducang, signaling them to exempt him from gifts.

Speaking of which, Mo Zizai didn't want to ride the dragon chariot so swayingly, but it was so comfortable to be unable to resist this thing.

This dragon chariot is a ancestral inheritance of the Great Zhou royal family. I don’t know when it was built. But in Mo Zizai’s opinion, in addition to using a horse, the other dragon chariot is completely the luxury RV in his previous life, even more exaggerated than the RV.

After all, no matter how big the RV in my previous life was, it had to consider the road traffic method, and its width could not exceed one lane.

But the Great Zhou Dynasty did not have any road traffic laws, and this was the emperor's car, so when designing it, it was just about how comfortable it was.

The entire dragon chariot was pulled forward by thirty-six horses. When walking on the road from a distance, it didn't look like a frame at all, but more like a moving palace, and it was even divided into several rooms. With such a large space, it would be fine if he pulled the flames in and walked around for two rounds.

What made Mo Zizai arrive the most amazing is that the craftsman who built this dragon chariot didn’t know what method was used. Such a large dragon chariot had surprisingly good shock absorption effect. When he drove on the dirt-breaking road in the Great Zhou Dynasty, he did not feel any bumpy in the dragon chariot.

Compared with the hard work he had last time riding a horse to Nanjun, this trip to Pingzhou seemed to be here to enjoy it.

And because of the dragon chariot, Tang Weilu came out with him this time to be responsible for protecting him personally.

"Oh, this is the way to open up all evil feudalism."

Mo Zizai thought about his indulgent life these days and felt a little emotional. However, the matter is important now, so he did not continue to think about it. Instead, he looked at Ducang condescendingly and said, "Mr. Du, go to the dragon chariot to speak."

The rooms on the dragon chariot are not only for people to live in, but also for special places to meet ministers. However, the emperors before the Great Zhou Dynasty did not like to go out for a walk, so there were very few ministers who could climb the honor of the dragon chariot.

At this moment, Du Yu was still a little excited when he heard Mo Zizai let him go up, but seeing that Mo Zizai had turned around and walked into the Long Yan's room, he immediately suppressed the excitement in his heart and walked up carefully along the steps that the palace maid put down.

Under the guidance of the palace maids, Ducang came to the reception room on the dragon chariot nervously. As soon as he stepped into the reception room, Ducang instantly smelled a familiar strange fragrance. He smelled the fragrance and looked at it, and found that a scent of incense burner was floating on the table in front of Mo Zizai.

The moment he saw the incense burner, Ducang suddenly thought of what this fragrance was, and couldn't help but blurt out, "Is it ambergris?"

In legend, ambergris is condensed from the saliva of a dragon, so it has such a special fragrance and is considered the top spice.

As for its price, one or two ambergris can be exchanged for at least one hundred taels of gold, and it is the kind that has no market price.

"Mr. Du has a good experience."

Mo Zizai nodded. This thing was indeed ambergris, but it was not the ambergris that Mo Zizai knew in his previous life. Mo Zizai knew that ambergris in his previous life was a whale excrement. There was nothing special except for a little fragrance.

But this ambergris is different. In addition to its fragrance, it can also help warriors practice. Some ambergris with good quality can even increase the cultivation speed of warriors below the Youzhao Realm by 20%, which can be called a magical object.

Sometimes Mo Zizai even wonders whether these ambergris are also the excrement of whales. But whales in this world want to practice as well as the Red Blood Dragon Test, so what they excrete can also help warriors practice?

Ducang didn't know what Mo Zizai was thinking, and said with some emotion: "My father had the chance to get a small piece before. When the fire was ignited, the Xiaguan was also present, so he still remembers this thing freshly."

"Not precious."

Mo Zizai picked up the tea brewed on the table and poured a cup of Ducang, then said, "When Lord Du left later, I will ask someone to pack a few pieces for you."

Logically speaking, Mo Zizai is half the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. With his identity, pouring tea for Ducang would be a bit of a loss, but Mo Zizai didn't care about this at all.

Other emperors have identities, which are nothing more than to maintain the majesty of the royal family and facilitate the use of imperial power and magic. But Mo Zizai is different. He does whatever he wants, and has a plug-in, and he just does whatever he wants.

Seeing that Mo Zizai was actually pouring tea for him, he had complained about Mo Zizai's extravagant appearance, and he couldn't help but change his opinion in his heart. However, he did not refuse the issue of Mo Zizai giving him ambergris. After all, although he can't use such things now, he still has a son in his family.

Therefore, he bowed his hands and said gratefully: "I am grateful to you, the prince."

"Don't be so polite."

Mo Zizai picked up the tea and tasted it, and then said, "If Lord Du had helped me defend Cangyi City this time, it would have been not so easy for the Red Flame Dragon Knight to take down Xiangcheng."

"Compared with Xiangcheng, what can a little ambergris be?"

"The Red Flame Dragon Knight of Prince Shin's ability to take down Xiangcheng is amazing, and the subordinates really dare not take credit."

Hearing Mo Zizai say this, Du Cang couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had thought before that Mo Zizai would definitely send troops to suppress the rebellion in Pingzhou, but he did not expect that Mo Zizai could actually use such strong strength to destroy King Yu in just today. This is really exaggerated.

"They are strong, but they are not good at siege. If Cangyi City had not dragged down King Yu's army, they would never have taken Xiangcheng so quickly."

After Mo Zizai said casually, and waited for Ducang to be more humble, he changed the topic and said: "I received a letter from Yan Zhang saying that the gentry in Cangyi City seems to have some problems?"

Hearing Mo Zizai talk about this topic, Du Cang couldn't help but sit up straight and said seriously: "By the prince, Xiaguan has forcibly recruited the money and food of these gentry in the city this time, so they are very dissatisfied with Xiaguan. They have already sued Xiaguan once from General Yang."

Du Cang did not hide the slightest of his words, nor did he mean to be biased towards himself. He just told Mo Zizai the whole story.

"Oh, that's it."

Mo Zizai nodded. Yang Yanzhang's letter only explained the matter roughly. He didn't know much about the specifics. After hearing Ducang's words, he asked again: "When you were defending the city, have these gentry people come out to help you defend the city?"

"How could they help Xiaguan guard the city?"

Du Cang smiled bitterly and said, "At that time, even the Xiaguan himself did not believe that our Cangyi City could be defended, so they didn't believe it even more."

"So they left all their guards at home. On the one hand, they were afraid of offending King Yu, and on the other hand, they were to prevent the city from being destroyed, and after the city was destroyed, there would be chaos soldiers looting them."

Ducang's words did not wrong the gentry. For those gentry, whether the city was broken or not has much to do with them. After all, if King Yu wants to take charge of Pingzhou, he cannot do things too well. They did not help defending the city on the surface. After the city was broken, they only needed to contribute some money, so Du Chao would not be difficult for them.

Therefore, the only thing those big families need to be prepared for is that after the city is broken, the robbery of the Yu Wang army by the rebel army will be able to withstand this wave of looting, and after Mo Chao settles in Cangyi City, they will not have any problems.

"It's a good plan."

Mo Zizai sneered, raised his hand and poured himself a cup of tea, and saw that Ducang's cup was empty, so he continued it for him, "Since that's the case, don't keep these people."

"No...don't stay."

Ducang picked up the teacup and was about to thank Mo Zizai for pouring him tea, but when he heard this, he was stunned. What does it mean to not keep it?

"Um."

Mo Zizai nodded and said, "As a citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if you don't want to pay attention to the court, why should you keep them for?"

"Anyway, the ministers in the court have been killed by me, so they must have no backing. Kill what should be killed and catch what should be caught. Don't have any scruples. If I have the best protection for you, just let it go."

"In short, I only have one requirement, that is, after these are cleaned up, everyone will have fields and food to eat in the entire Cangyi City. Can you do it?"

"Everyone has a field plant?"

Ducang looked at Mo Zizai with a strange expression. He never expected that Mo Zizai, who is known for his tyranny, would have the first thing he did when he came to Cangyi City to care about people's livelihood.

"What, there is a problem?"

Seeing that Du Cang was not speaking, Mo Zizai asked back.

"No...no."

Ducang quickly shook his head and said, "If the amount of cultivated land in Cangyi City can be distributed equally, after the basic land is distributed, there should be a small amount of rich cultivated land."

As a thoroughfare of the two counties, Cangyi City has always been endless and has a lot of arable land. However, most of these arable land is concentrated in the hands of those large households, and the land in the hands of ordinary people is less than one or two of the total land.

If you do what Mo Zizai said, clean up all the wealthy households and divide the fields, the people of Cangyi City will be able to live a prosperous life in less than two years.

"only……"

Ducang thought for a while and said hesitantly: "Prince, Cangyi City is not all rich and unkind people. There are many wealthy and famous people who are not good at it. They abide by the law on weekdays, but they also hold a lot of land in their hands. What should these people do?"

"Abide by the law? Heh~"

Mo Zizai sneered and said, "Where do you come from the law? My father once issued a land restriction order, which stipulates that no special circumstances, and a person owns land, and a household must not exceed 100 acres at most. Which of these people do you think has no land for more than 100 acres?"

"Even if some of them made a fortune from business and didn't have much land in their hands, I don't believe they paid the full amount of commercial tax."

Speaking of this, Mo Zizai smiled and said, "If there were really people who did not have too much land and did not evade taxes and could still accumulate such a huge family background, then I wouldn't be happy enough, so how could I touch them?"

As a feudal court, the Great Zhou Dynasty also had a serious suppression of business. In addition to the many harsh conditions, it also set a very high commercial tax.

However, there are policies and countermeasures at the top. The court collects more business taxes, and those businessmen below also have enough ways to evade taxes. There are fewer people who can actually pay full amount of business taxes in the Great Zhou Dynasty than those of saints.

So after hearing Mo Zizai say this, Ducang nodded with some clarity, "The prince understands what the prince means."

"The servant happened to have some evidence of these big-name criminals, so I will send someone to arrest them."

"As for those without evidence, the lower officials will collect their evidence of their crimes from the public these days. If they find one, they will arrest one person and will never tolerate it."

"No need to be so troublesome."

Mo Zizai spoke and pointed: "You can catch the evidence first, and then let them jump to each other for the rest."

"These businessmen have been intriguing and calculating each other a lot of times. They must have mastered a lot of crimes from their peers. You just need to pry their mouths open, and the evidence will naturally come in endless streams."

"What the prince said is..."

When Ducang heard Mo Zizai say this, he nodded in a daze. There is a saying that the person who knows you best is not your friend, but your enemy, and these merchants are full of competition with each other, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are enemies.

Therefore, it is much faster to pry out the evidence of other merchants from them than to collect them from the public.

"Then the official will not disturb the prince anymore. I will go and catch people now!"

"Yeah, go and put it."

Mo Zizai asked the palace maids to bring a piece of ambergris to Ducang. Then when Ducang was about to leave, Mo Zizai suddenly remembered something again and called Ducang to stop him and said:
Chapter completed!
