Chapter 236 Wei Jia
In the grain, silk, blacksmith and other businesses in Anyi, the Wei family is the leader among them. In addition, the Wei family has raised nearly tens of thousands of private soldiers. There are countless family members, servants and maids. It is also a famous Confucian family with disciples all over the world.
It can be said that the Wei family has a pivotal position in Anyi. In the past, the Taishou in Hedong had to ask the opinions of the Wei family before they dared to issue a policy.
In the hall of the Wei family's mansion, Wei Zhongdao sat in the main seat, and his uncles were sitting on both sides. Wei Zhongdao's father was the head of the Wei family. He died a few years ago. At that time, Wei Zhongdao was young and did not take the position of patriarch. Several of his uncles temporarily managed the affairs of the clan.
"Hmm. It is often said that the new official takes office three times. Unexpectedly, Wen Fan dared to sprinkle the first fire on the head of our Wei family. I really don't know whether he is bold or dead.
"Of course, I don't know whether to live or die. I have agreed with other patriarchs of rich families in Anyi City. Three days later, when this extraordinary person comes to Anyi, we will close the door and not go out to welcome him.
As long as I wait for a few rich families not to welcome this extraordinary article, how can some small families in the city dare to welcome it? Then he was strict with the family and servants, so that their relatives and friends could not go to the extraordinary. At that time, I'm afraid that 80% of the people in Anyi will close their doors and treat him like a plague. I'll look at him, where will his face go then!"
"Yes, that's it. To lose his face, let him know that in this Anyi and even the whole Hedong, he offended us and other Hedong Wei family, and he will be difficult to walk!"
Wei Zhongdao sat in the main seat and couldn't help frowning. These uncles did not discuss these things with him at all. When he was the young master, he was equal to air.
"Second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle. Do you have any thoughts about doing this? We, the Wei family, have offended this extraordinary article, which is harmful but not beneficial. After all, this extraordinary article is sealed by the imperial court!"
"Zhong Dao! Others have bullied our Wei family and robbed your wife! The hatred of taking a wife is like a sea of blood. If we and the Wei family were in the era when Empress Wei held power, this extraordinary article would have died tens of thousands of times!
Zhong Dao, the second uncle often tells you. We are a rich family, and we are the most noble bloodline in the world except for Wang Sunzi. That extraordinary is just a poor man, with humble blood in his body. There is a division between superiority and inferiority. How can we make this extraordinary ride on the head of the Wei family!"
"The second brother is right. People are divided into groups, three, six, nine, etc. If this level is chaotic, isn't the world in chaos? Zhong Dao, the third uncle often tells you to learn more from your dead father and work harder. You have the support of the whole Wei family. Can't you fight against a poor man?
"Enough! Second uncle, third uncle! Please respect me! Although my generation is lower than yours, after all, I am still the young master of the Wei family! I don't need you to give me some advice on how to do things!"
Wei Zhong stood up, with blood surging in his pale face and shouting. He, who was originally slightly weak, was a little more majestic at this moment.
The middle-aged man, who was called the second uncle and third uncle by Wei Zhongdao, was stunned. Almost at the same time, a dark light flashed in his eyes. His hand as the handle of the seat suddenly squeezed the handle was about to break.
"Zhong Dao, why do you have to do this? They are all your second and third uncles. After all, they have more experience in dealing with people than you. And they are all for your own good, for the good of the Wei family.
Okay, okay, it's not too late. Zhong Dao, you are not in good health. I can't disturb these useless old things anymore, so I will retreat first.
Wei Zhongdao snorted coldly and turned around. Before his second uncle and third uncle left, he glanced at him coldly, saying that he didn't know what. As for the white-faced fourth uncle, after saying a few good words, he left with his second and third brother.
"This stinky child! How dare you scold me! Even your damn father doesn't dare to do this to me! Sooner or later, the Wei family will be defeated by you. Fortunately, I prepared for a rainy day and took some measures first. Wei Zhong said, don't blame your second uncle for being ruthless. It's really that you can't stand it. You can't be the position of patriarch!"
Under the night fog, Wei Zhongdao's second uncle with a beard, with a terrible light in his eyes, and his eyes were full of vicious bad water.
Three days later, 8,000 soldiers and horses, like a roaring dragon, me winding from outside Anyi City. Before the troubled times, the east of the river is still stable. Except for the Xihe area that requires soldiers and horses to guard, other places do not need too many soldiers and horses to guard. In other counties, the number of soldiers and horses that were left behind is hundreds, which is enough to maintain the order of each county. Therefore, Wen Han did not send troops to guard in other counties.
Wen Han, Guan Yu and Gao Shun led the team. As for Zhou Long, Xi Long, Zhang Yu, Han Song, Lin Shi, Xiao Yuhan and other civil servants sat in the carriage.
Wen Han wore Yan Luo's armor, wore a white plum robe, held a tiger's head and a silver gun, and rode Shenjun's stepping on the clouds. He was heroic and majestic. He took the lead and went under the gate first to announce his name.
The general guarding the city heard that he was the governor who took office and did not dare to neglect at all. He quickly put down the suspension bridge and opened the gate. Wen Han led the soldiers and horses into Anyi City.
Anyi was the capital of the State of Wei during the Warring States Period. It spans the loess hills and lower plains of Mingtiaogang, with a circumference of 15 kilometers and a trapezoid with a narrow north and a wide south.
The width of the wall foundation is about 10 meters, except for the section of one kilometer in the northwest corner, which is about 10 meters. In the middle of the big city, there is a small square city with a circumference of one. The wall is five or six meters wide, and the terrain is about four meters above the surrounding ground. It was the palace of the State of Wei at that time. It has been renovated and has become the central area of Anyi and the residence of the bureaucrats and rich families in your government. As for the central wall that encloses the southwest of the big city, it is more than 6,000 meters in circumference and is the palace of the county.
Although Anyi is not as prosperous as Luoyang, it has an ancient charm. Wen Han led his troops to walk in the streets of Anyi, and his eyebrows frowned unconsciously.
There are few people on this street. Except for a few hawkers shouting, it is strangely quiet. Moreover, with his arrival with such a great momentum, the people in this city should know why no one came to welcome him.
Especially for those rich families, they are the core figures of Anyi City. Whether according to etiquette or for their future interests, they should also come to welcome them.
"Hmm, the Wei family, there is indeed a big means. How dare you give me a mawei!"
Wen Han sneered, and soon he disdained it. He didn't care about this courtesy and face, because these were nothing.
However, these people don't sell well to him, the governor of Hedong, so Wenhan doesn't have to be polite to them in the future.
After a while, the official who stayed in charge of handover in Anyi rushed to Wenhan. He looked at the strange scene around him and muttered in his heart, thinking that he would be vented by Wen Han. Unexpectedly, Wen Han didn't care at all, so he arranged the residence of Wen Han's officials and soldiers, and then handed over the documents with Zhang Yu.
The left-behind official looked at Wen Han curiously, then nodded quickly, and then divided the soldiers behind him into several waves of people. Two waves of soldiers led the middle school field in the city to arrange accommodation, and a wave of people led a heavy team and put the weight and armaments in the granary and Hyogo in the city.
And he led Wen Han and other officials to the city to arrange the mansion. Zhou Long and Guan Yu have been used to being inseparable from Wen Han and living together with Wen Han. Wen Han's Taishou mansion is several times larger than Luoyang's mansion, and there are countless rooms. After a while, after the handover officials assigned the mansion, they led Wen Han and others to the county hall in the city, except for Zhang Yu, who had to reconcile with the handover officials.
Wen Han and others walked around curiously. This county hall is extraordinary, spacious and majestic. At this moment, Wen Han stood here and really felt that he really became a county guard at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Two hours later, the handover officer who reconciled with Zhang Yu was sweating profusely. This one is really difficult to deal with, and some small numbers should also be inquired out. These days, there are no innocent officials. This unknown number is the greed of the previous generation of officials, but this number is not large, and ordinary people only open their eyes and close their eyes.
Unexpectedly, this one didn't go up at all, and he insisted on asking clearly. As a member of the handover, the official was about to be knotted, and he was extremely wronged.
If he is greedy for these taxes, food and armaments, he doesn't even drink soup at all, but he is constantly interrogated like a prisoner. If he had known this, he would not have been the handover official.
"That's all. Zigang, these are the bad debts left by the previous generation. It doesn't make it useless for you to ask clearly. These small amounts are not big, so it's okay.
"No way!"
Zhang Yu raised his head and shouted with a straight face, with a righteous and extremely serious look.
"If the small things are not organized, the big things will be chaotic. Although these numbers are small, they are all the blood and sweat of the people. Since he did this handover, he should have dealt with this account book before the handover, so he has a certain responsibility! It is even possible to get along with those people. According to the imperial calendar, you should cut off your hands and go to prison!"
