Chapter 248 Wasteland Acquisition Station
With the help of Wenhan, the new governor of Hedong, Wei Zhongdao ascended to the position of head of the family, and the Wei family set off a storm. Wei Zhongdao seemed to have changed a person, with tough methods, replacing many of the older generation of the Wei family in the Wei family and taking their power completely.
Then, replace a group of confidants cultivated by Wei Zhongdao. Originally, how could the older generation give up their power so easily? However, Wen Han, the governor of Hedong, actually sent Gao Shun, the captain of Hedong, to Wei Zhongdao. On the surface, Gao Shun came to the Wei family as a guest, but no one knew that he was on behalf of Wenhan as a deterrent.
For dozens of days in a row, Gao Shun almost appeared beside Wei Zhongdao, almost inseparable. Wei Zhongdao had a lot of troops in his hands, and with the government faction represented by Gao Shun, the older generation dared to be angry and dared not say anything, so they had to abdicate. Several of them were unwilling to fall from a high position and plotted to seize power.
Unexpectedly, Wei Zhongdao bought the confidants around these people for a long time and was caught by Wei Zhongdao and kicked out of the door of the Wei family. Since Wei Zhongdao was betrayed by Wei Qiong, he knew that weak courtesy would only indulge them and become cruel, although he did not kill these people who plotted to seize power.
But it is strict that all rich families in Anyi are not allowed to take them in. The Wei family is the most powerful family in Anyi, supported by Wen Han, and the power is a little sharper than before. Who dares to take in these people who were driven out by Wei Zhongdao? In the end, these people, under the ban of various channels of Wei Zhongdao, finally became the despicable exiles in their past.
And at the time when Anyi and even the whole Hedong thought that the Wei family and the Wenhan government were going to work together and make a big difference. Something happened that shocked everyone.
One day, Wei Zhongdao was invited to Wenhan Taishou's mansion for a banquet. He was drunk for three minutes. After leaving the banquet, he broke into Cai Gong's daughter's boudoir and went crazy. He talked about his affection for Cai Gong's daughter. He hoped that Cai Gong's daughter would change her mind and marry him again.
After Wen Han learned about this, he was furious and beat Wei Zhongdao away with his second brother Guan Yu. Wei Zhongdao was beaten all over by the two brothers and fled back to the Wei family in confusion.
In the future, Wei Zhongdao announced that the people in the world broke off his relationship with Wen Han. The reason was that Wen Han forcibly took his wife who had never passed the door, which was even more than the hatred of Wei Qiong's seizure of his father, and he would not die with Wen Han.
Soon, Wen Han also fought back, announcing that Wei Zhongdao flirted with his unmarried wife, was ungrateful, and broke off contact with the Wei family from then on.
So, a woman made the whole city of Anyi seem to be in the midst of a storm. There have been many fights between the Wei family and the government in several days, and many people have been implicated.
For good, whether it is the Wei family or the government, they will compensate them. But even so, the streets of Anyi are becoming more and more deserted, for fear that one day there will be a large-scale fight between the Wei family and the government.
However, it is comforting. Wen Han and Wei Zhongdao still haven't lost their minds. Except for some small fights, the two sides have no intention of killing each other for the time being.
After some time, the new Taishu Wen Hanxiang fell in favor of several wasteland outside Anyi City and wanted to buy it privately and leave it for future generations to enjoy happiness. However, Wei Jia didn't know where to learn the news and took the lead to buy the wasteland in Wen Hanxiang. As the guard of a county, Wen Han was robbed of his favor. Of course, he was furious.
So, a land purchase war began.
Whenever Wen Hanxiang's wasteland, the Wei family will send someone to rob it. In just three days, most of the wasteland outside Anyi City fell under the name of the two people.
However, the land purchase battle between the two of them is not over. They began to extend the front to the counties around Anyi. For this reason, Wen Han has come out of the power of the government and let the officials of each county buy it for him. The Wei family used the connections they had accumulated for nearly several generations, as well as several small rich families who made friends with him to collect them.
Why are the two of them so crazy? Among them, there are many rumors. One of the more reliable rumors is that Cai Gongfangyan, Wen Han and Wei Zhongdao, who has more land and more financial resources, will marry his daughter.
Of course, it's just a rumor. With Cai Yong as a person, the rumor was quickly overturned.
There are also rumors that the original article wants to take root in Hedong and become a new rich family. The birth of a rich family certainly requires land. And the Wei family is a giant of a rich family in Hedong. Of course, he doesn't want his enemy to take root in Hedong, so he buys the land that Wenhan wanted, and wants to cut off the idea of Wenhan falling root in Hedong.
There are so many rumors that it is difficult to distinguish them for a while.
Under the crazy purchase of the two, there was less and less wasteland in Hedong County. At the beginning, there were many rich people who wanted to please Wen Han, or sold the wasteland they had in their hands to Wen Han at a very low price. However, rare things are expensive, but when the stock of wasteland in Hedong is becoming more and more scarce, the value of wasteland has also risen from the original one mu of silver to the sky-high price of one mu of ten silver.
The land price of this wasteland has increased tenfold.
Some people with intentions immediately found the business opportunities and began to secretly acquire them, constantly pushing up the value of the wasteland.
For the rich family in Hedong, they are happy to see Wei Jia and Wen Han so crazy. In troubled times, no one wants to open up the wasteland, which is of no use at all. Taking advantage of this, they can also earn a considerable income.
Under the ** of money, they no longer talked as well as before and began to bargain with Wen Han and the Wei family. Just when the rich family in Hedong were secretly happy, Wen Han suddenly stopped and stopped buying it.
Later, the news came from the Wei family that these rich families in Hedong knew that Wen Han had run out of funds.
Originally, some rich families in Hedong who thought they were smart and wanted to make a lot of money by speculating in land suddenly became anxious. They invested a lot of gold and silver, and these wastelands are worthless.
And as Wen Han stopped, the Wei family seemed to have the intention to stop. In this way, those rich families who fry the land are so anxious that they don't think about it every day, waiting for the buyers representing Wen Han or the Wei family to come.
Day after day, Wen Han and the Wei family seem to really want to stop. This is so urgent that those rich families who speculate on the land can no longer hold it and take the initiative to find Wen Han and Wei's family to sell this wasteland.
And Wen Han is the most crisp. He not only announced that he would not buy it, but also wanted to sell it. With a look of poor enough to leave only the land, it should never have been so regretful at the beginning, so that those rich people who had originally thought of countless rhetoric, immediately went back home without saying a few words.
As for the wave of people who targeted the rich, the reply he received was even more direct, that is, Wen Handu would stop. Does he still want to live with this worthless wasteland? The Wei family also announced that they would sell the land!
Two rich people who originally received land are now going to sell the land instead. This is very anxious to kill those rich people who have piled up a lot of wasteland in their hands. When this person is anxious, his head will be confused and his eyes will be blinded. They began to sell the wasteland in their hands at an unbelievably low price.
And there were several waves of small families secretly arranged by the Wei family. At this time, they took action. They bought all the cheaply sold wasteland. Those rich families who hoarded the wasteland did not even think about why these small families suddenly had so much money. They were so lucky to get rid of the potato, and they politely thanked these small The generosity of the clan.
In this way, Wen Han and the Wei family caught the fear and greed of these rich families and collected 70% of the wasteland in Hedong.
The land acquisition war, which lasted for half a month, has come to an end. In Wen Han's Taishou Mansion, Wen Han is feasting to celebrate what he has gained in the past half month.
"Haha, these greedy land speculators want to make a lot of money from it, but they don't know that they are led by us from beginning to end. You don't know that when the buyers I sent to buy wasteland from their hands, they look like a burden, grateful and eager to trade immediately, which is really ridiculous."
Wei Zhongdao held the wine glass and laughed loudly. The novel word "fried land speculator" was invented by Wen Han. It is described very well. After a long time, the people around him don't realize that those people are called speculators.
"Hmm. Lord Taishou, this cup should be respectful to you. It seems that you are not only good at fighting, but also a business wizard. At the beginning, I saw the price of this wasteland rising steadily, but I was very scared. Unexpectedly, Lord Taishou suddenly had a whim. He fought a psychological war with these people and kept the price of the wasteland down.
"Haha, that's right. This cup should be respectful to Lord Taishou."
Xilong and Wei Zhongdao raised their glasses to Wen Han together. At this time, Wen Han was also happy in his heart and raised his glass to drink. In fact, the reason why he later pretended to sell the contract with the Wei family.
It is all because he met a group of giants in the real estate industry with a very high IQ in his later life. At that time, Wen Han, as a special bodyguard, guarded their safety. These giants in the real estate industry are hunting in foreign countries without exception. Every time they take action, it will make the foreign economy chaotic. Wen Han also learned some of these techniques from their teaching.
"Now we have 70% of the wasteland in Hedong. Next, I will slowly take back the remaining 30%. The Tuntian measure can be implemented next month.
You have suffered a lot for this, not only the pain of this skin and flesh. Presumably in the Wei family, your move must have been questioned and criticized a lot.
"Your Excellency is very kind. This bitterness of skin and flesh is just a small matter, but the doubts of the people in the clan really cost me a lot of time to suppress them.
The good thing is that in the end, the lord Taishou used a trick to suppress the land price, otherwise, I may really be powerless. Wei Jia, the silver spent has exceeded the bottom line of my two uncles.
"I am ashamed of this matter. The silver taels spent by the Wei family, after storing the field, I will supplement it with grain, or sell the grain and return it to you. Zhong Dao, although we don't know each other for a long time, what we have experienced is enough to make us like brothers. You don't have to call me this lord. Just call me directly."
In troubled times, the value of food is no less than silver,
"Okay, I won't be pretentious either. Extraordinary, the cost of silver can't hurt the huge Wei family's muscles and bones. Just think of it as the Wei family's investment in extraordinary.
"This..."
Although Wei Zhong said so, Wen Han is not a person who doesn't know how to count. The Wei family invested nearly hundreds of thousands of gold in silver this time. Although the Wei family is rich, this fund is enough for their annual income. As soon as Wei Zhongdao took office, he spent so much money. I'm afraid it will be bad for his reputation in the Wei family.
"Oh. Did you forget that you and I traded on that day? As I said, after Wei Zhongdao regained the position of the head of the family, the Wei family will be an extraordinary pawn. The Wei family is not short of money and things, so why do we care about it?
By the way, extraordinary, how are you going to go next?
Speaking of this, Wen Han couldn't help looking at Xilong. As Wen Han said, Xilong is the brain of the whole group. He also asked him what to do next.
Xilong smiled. Although he has not followed Wen Han for a long time, Wen Han has unconditional trust in him. As a conspirator, he is lucky.
"Ha ha. First of all, we need to prepare for the implementation of Tuntian. Half a month later, Tuntian was implemented. In addition to the people in Hedong, the exiles from all states and counties were also surging. In case we are overwhelmed, we should send someone to prepare the building materials now.
At the same time, I have to wait for a while. There are a large number of people in Tuntian. Before the harvest, we need to eat and drink. After the harvest, I can deduct it from it.
Moreover, during the implementation, in case some intentional people want to hinder the implementation of Tuntian and deliberately raise grain prices. Therefore, I still need to prepare a lot of food.
There are two preparations. First, we can take advantage of this half month to buy grain when the grain price has not been gouging. Second, please ask the Lord Taishou to borrow food from Ding Shishi of Bingzhou and Cao Taishou of Chen Liu.
After all, it requires a lot of food. I'm afraid we can't be satisfied with the acquisition with funds alone. Our previous acquisition of wasteland has attracted the attention of many people. If we buy a large amount of grain, we will be suspected by many people.
With the relationship between Lord Taishou and Ding Shishi and Cao Taishou, it should not be too difficult to borrow food. Everything is waiting to be implemented in Tuntian. After the harvest in the coming year, I will return it twice.
What I said before is all prepared for Tuntian. The next half month is a critical moment. We have to do much more than that. To stabilize Hedong, we also need to grasp the economic lifeline. Most of the business in Hedong is in the hands of rich families and giant merchants..."
When Xi Long said this, he suddenly paused and glanced at Wei Zhongdao intentionally or unintentionally. After all, the Wei family is a giant of a rich family in Hedong, so just now, some words about the rich family were deliberately not specified. However, in the next words, it is particularly targeted to the rich family.
