Chapter 8332 advance and retreat

Linze City.

In the small courtyard.

Yunyang Bo had already followed Yun Xinlao into the house.

The maid made tea for Yunyang Bo, while she gave Yun Xinlao warm soup.

At this age, Yun Xinlao wanted to maintain his health, so making soup with supplements became his choice.

Yunyang Bo was in a state of confusion.

He picked up the tea cup and drank half of the tea in one breath.

Fortunately, the tea was not hot, otherwise his mouth would have burned.

"Yun Xinlao, what should I do?"

Yunyang Bo didn't know what to do. He was now in a dilemma.

He could neither believe what the great elder Yunying said and spread some rumors, nor could he just retreat.

Because he is not alone, there is a huge force behind him, and he represents the interests of a group of people.

"What do you want to achieve?" Yun Xinlao was still tepid.

"I want to ask Luo Xingchen and Yunzhen to give up their land allocation." Yunyang Bo said.

"To make them give up their land allocation? Yang Bo, don't even think about this."

Yun Xinlao said calmly: "Do you think that the division of land was just a whim of the young master of the Luo family?"

Yun Xinlao took out a piece of paper, took out a pen on the table, and dipped some ink on it.

He drew a circle on the paper with a pen.

"When the Qi Dynasty was founded, Qi Taizu had already allocated fields to the world. At that time, the world had been in chaos for many years. People's minds were settled. If the people had fields and could eat and clothe themselves, then the world would naturally be stable and there would be no more chaos."

"But after the world is at peace, people in later generations may not think the same as the people in the past. People's hearts are not as good as snakes swallowing elephants. People are greedy and will never be satisfied."

Yun Xinlao picked up the pen again and drew another circle inside the big circle.

"This circle symbolizes the gentry and the powerful."

"The gentry and the powerful will definitely do everything possible to increase their own land. Due to the inequality in status, the gentry and the powerful will not have many restrictions on annexing land."

Yunyang Bo was slightly absent-minded. He nodded and said, "I know that the Yun family has done many things about annexation."

"Yes, as members of the Yun family, we naturally don't feel too much when we see our own people annexing their fields, but for ordinary people, this is not a good thing."

"In the early days, people always had a way to survive, and they would leave some land as their family assets. But with the natural and man-made disasters year by year, people's fields became less and less. In the end, all the fields were lost, and they only had one way.

That’s being a sharecropper.”

"Look, how many tenant farmers are there in our Yunjiazhuang? Thousands of people at least. Behind these thousands of men, there are thousands of families. How many people are these?"

"It is difficult for these tenant farmers to live. In addition, the court cannot collect taxes because the people have no land."

Yun Xinlao said: "The gentry and powerful people have many means to avoid paying taxes, and the imperial treasury is becoming increasingly empty."

"Yun Xinlao, this is a matter for the imperial court. It is something that the emperor should worry about. It has nothing to do with our Yun family, right?" Yunyang Bo said.

"Of course it's related."

"What I'm telling you is to let you know that the matter of dividing the land is of great importance. It can't just be done by the Luo family. The person behind this is probably personally appointed by the current emperor, and the Luo family... is the emperor.

A knife in hand."

Yun Xinlao said coldly: "Recently, I heard that many people want to contact senior officials of the imperial court and want to sue the capital."

"This matter must not be accomplished, and the matter of dividing the land will continue."

"Yun Xinlao, since the land division is unstoppable, what should I do?"

Yunyang Bodao.

"The situation is irreversible. From what I see, you have only one way to deal with this matter, and that is to meet the Luo family master first, take the initiative to surrender, and take the initiative to become a knife in his hand." Old Yun Xin said.

Yunyang Bo looked stunned.

Is this okay?

If you can't beat me, why not just join?

"But Yunzhen has already made that knife."

Yunyang Bo hesitated.

He was not absolutely against taking refuge in Luo Xingchen.

After all, according to Yun Xinlao's analysis.

Standing behind Luo Xingchen is the current emperor of Daqi.

To take refuge in Luo Xingchen was to take refuge in the emperor.

The current emperor of Da Qi, Qi Xingyun, is not a mediocre ruler, but the ruler of Zhongxing Da Qi who works hard to govern. Even if he does not give birth to a prince, the throne is very stable and no one can shake it.

With such an emperor, the Yun family would be willing to seek refuge with him, and they would probably get a lot of benefits in the future.

However, there are also priorities in taking refuge.

Yun Zhen had already taken refuge first, and when it was his turn, he had already lost the opportunity.

"You are different from Yunzhen."

"Yunzhen is your junior. He is younger, but he lacks experience and cannot grasp the situation inside and outside Linze City."

"He can preside over the land distribution, but the Yun family is not just a landowner. The Yun family is also a business family. In this area, he can't do it, but you can."

Yun Xinlao made no secret and spoke straightforwardly.

"So, I still have a use for myself."

After being told by Yun Xinlao, Yunyang Bo found that his heart was already moved.

Yes, why do you want to go against Luo Xingchen and the court?

The Yun family doesn't need any land, so they can still do business.

What's more, behind Luo Xingchen is Daqi's number one trading firm, Yang's Trading Firm!

Luo Xingchen is still the admiral of the Navy and is opening up new shipping routes and has established a shipping company.

The business opportunities are simply frightening.

This is really...

As soon as a thought comes out, the world and the earth become wider in an instant.

"But, Mr. Luo, will you accept it?"

Yunyang Bo began to worry about whether people wanted him or not.

"Why doesn't he accept it? If he wants to do things, he needs people. The manpower is definitely insufficient. You can still occupy a good position now." Yun Xinlao said.

"Thank you, Yun Xinlao, I learned a lesson!"

At this moment, Yunyang Bo made up his mind.



Linzecheng Yang's Commercial Bank Branch.

Luo Xingchen returned to the branch again.

Now the new shopkeeper is not as domineering as Long Junhao was back then.

The new shopkeeper, Mi Xiu, takes care of everything with Luo Xingchen.

"Recently, there have been a lot of children's songs in the city, and rumors are spreading."

Luo Xingchen said lightly.

What those children's songs say is that the imperial court wants to harm the scholars, gentry and powerful people, and arouse those people's resistance.

"Young Master, I have already told Governor Chu about this matter, and Governor Chu is sending someone to investigate."

"Then check carefully to see who is standing behind it."

"Yes." Shopkeeper Mi turned and left.

Luo Xingchen sat at the table, thoughtful.

Originally, he didn't want to come to Linze City so early. He planned to take the Qingyun Sect people to visit the Golden Chan Palace.

But when he learned that there were false rumors spreading everywhere in Linze City, he rushed to Linze City.

At the same time, he also brought Yu Youlan.

As Yu Youlan is an important figure in Jinchan Palace, the master of Jinchan Palace will definitely send someone to kill her.

I'm afraid it would not be appropriate to place it in the county government of Funing County.

The Yamen of Funing County can no longer stop those martial artists.
