Chapter 255 Tianxiang's Bet
"The text is extraordinary, the text is extraordinary. I don't know if you don't measure yourself, or if you are bold. Only in all states and counties in the world are not rich families and government officials accounting for half of the country, so that they can be at peace with each other.
In their place, the rich families not only have land, troops and food, but also have many people behind the court.
If we and other local officials want to control the land under their jurisdiction, they have to be restrained by them. Otherwise, this place will be chaotic, and your official position will not sit for a long time.
The article is extraordinary. I know that you are a courageous person. But you still have to do everything according to your ability, otherwise you will overestimate yourself and end up losing your reputation.
As an experienced person, I'm here to advise you to stop as soon as possible. Don't turn against the rich family. You can't beat them.
What's more. Even if you are extraordinary and really have the ability to suppress the rich families in Hedong, you are finished, and you can only live in Hedong forever. Because once you successfully suppress the rich family in Hedong, if you want to intervene in other places in the future, I'm afraid you will be fiercely counterattacked by the local rich family.
These rich people, for the sake of the clan and for their rights and interests, have accumulated generations. Once they go crazy, you can't underestimate it.
Ding Yuan's words are very honest, and there are already some words in it. Because of this, Wen Han could hear that Ding Yuan was really thinking about him.
Wen Han's eyes are only firm, looking at Ding Yuan. Xilong has also analyzed what he just said, but in the end, he and Xilong unanimously decided to take this step.
Of course, Ding Yuan did not know that behind Wen Han, there was the help of Xilong, a counselor with the power of heaven and earth. For the Hedong rich family, the bright rise and the dark fall, the Tuntian implementation, and the commercial cooperation with the giant businessman Fujia to achieve stability. As long as a series of plans are successfully implemented, the people of the Hedong rich family can no longer threaten Wen Han.
Wen Han is not afraid that they will rebel. After all, he represents the court. If the rich family in Hedong opposes, he is a thief. Then Wen Han will not hesitate to eliminate them.
As for whether those bureaucrats behind the rich families in Hedong will make small moves in front of Emperor Hanling to remove his official position. This is what Wen Han can't grasp. He can only hope that Emperor Han Ling can see the truth.
In the end, will he be involved in other states and counties in the future and encounter the fierce attack of the local rich family? Wen Han is not worried, because he believes that his way of driving the world with public opinion will awaken the humanity of the local people to assist him.
As long as Hedong Tuntian is successful, he will have enough food to feed a large number of people. As long as there is food and can survive, the local people will not be willing to be controlled by rich people.
After all, there are only a few rich families in the world. As long as the local people are willing to vote for Wen Han, Wen Han is not afraid of how much wind and rain the local rich family can set off.
"Ding Gong, there is no way in this world. If there are too many people, the road will come out. In the past, or as Ding Gong said, the government and the rich family accounted for half of each place.
But it is extraordinary, but you have to take an unusual road, open up a new road, and be the pioneer.
What Mr. Ding just said was clear before he came. Please believe that this decision was made after careful consideration. Please help me. Today's kindness, I will remember it in my heart, and there will be a retribution in the future!"
"You!" Ding Yuan didn't seem to expect that Wen Han would say this. He stared into Wen Han's eyes. The firmness in Wen Han's eyes complicated Ding Yuan's heart. Finally, he sighed.
"Eh. It seems that you are determined to fight against the rich families in Hedong. Are you ready to accept the consequences of your discreditation?
"It is extraordinary to fight against the rich family in Hedong, but it is extraordinary to sit in the position of Hedong Taishou. Only in this way can the current situation in Hedong be changed.
Rich people hold too much money and too much food in their hands. One person in their family spends every day, which is enough for a hundred people. Now in Hedong, there are people everywhere who don't wear clothes or eat. They are also the people of the big man. Should their lives be so mean?
As long as this rich family is willing to let go of their hands, these exiles can eat and survive. Extraordinary is not to force the rich people to have no way out. They just want to give up some insignificant interests. They can still live a wonderful life, spend money like earth, and be superior.
"Well, Wen is extraordinary. You really look at these rich families. Give up some? That's impossible. They just want more, more."
"Well, extraordinary can only fight with them for more people."
Ding Yuan was silent and talked repeatedly. He had already understood that Wen Han would not give up if he did not achieve his goal, or more to put it more, this road, whether it was bright or black, he must go to the end.
"The article is extraordinary. 5,000 stone grain is not a small amount. Although I am the governor of Bingzhou, it is impossible for me to lend you this 5,000 stone grain casually.
Moreover, you must stick to this road. I can't guarantee how long you, the governor of Hedong, can sit. A year later, not to mention that you promised to pay back a total of 10,000 stones of grain, I don't know if I can get back the 5,000 stone capital I invested?
So... I dare not accept the gift you sent. You'd better take it back to Hedong."
Ding Yuan appreciates Wen Han again, but he just stays in appreciation, and there are no other more special feelings. A full 600,000 catties of grain is enough for a county to eat for half a year.
How can he lend this 600,000 catties of grain to a person who will lose his official position at any time just by appreciating a person?
"It's an extraordinary dilemma for Mr. Ding. Unexpectedly, this gift was given away, but there was no gift to get back. Moreover, Ding Gong also helped him many times when he was in extraordinary danger.
Please don't blame Mr. Ding for his rudeness today.
After Ding Yuan's refusal only made Wen Han's face a little disappointed, Wen Han quickly cheered up again. He understood that Ding had his embarrassment.
In this way, it is inevitable that the two of them will be a little embarrassed when sitting opposite each other. Ding Yuan was restless and slightly irritable. Wen Han saw it, sighed, and wanted to say goodbye to Ding Yuan and go back to Hedong.
Ding Yuan frowned. He really appreciated Wen Han and hoped to see him succeed. But that's all. After thinking for a long time, Ding Yuan still let Wen Han stay and rest for a day. Let him think carefully and reply to Wen Han tomorrow.
Although Wen Han knew that Ding Yuan was not likely to change his mind, it was very important to borrow food. There was a glimmer of hope, and he was willing to fight. Ding Yuan was irritable and didn't want to talk to Wen Han more, so Wen Han retreated and went back to his room to rest. Ding Yuan nodded and didn't stay any longer.
Not long after Wen Han left, the woman playing the piano by the pond opened the silk curtain and came out with an intoxicating fragrance. She looked at Wen Han's figure silently, as if she knew Wen Han.
"Tianxiang, come on. Sit with me."
It turned out that this person was Tianxiang, who had a relationship with Wen Han in Qifeng Tower and played chess. When Tianxiang heard Ding Yuan calling her, she stepped on the boat, went ashore and walked towards the platform.
As soon as Tianxiang came, the wonderful fragrance on his body suddenly made Ding Yuan suck the air greedily. The unique fragrance on Tianxiang's body made the irritability on Ding Yuan's face gradually fade away.
"Lord Assassin. The slave family is courteous."
Tianxiang has a graceful and delicate body, with a slight salute, wearing a white pure snow-tted silk dress, as beautiful as a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.
"Haha, there is no need for a beauty to be polite. It's my fault to let the beauty wait for a long time. Come on, sit down."
Tianxiang Yidingyuan's words, the silk clothes were stirred, sitting opposite Dingyuan like a red dust white lotus. At that time, women's status was extremely low, and they generally could not sit with men, let alone Ding Yuan, who was the head of a state. However, it seems that Tianxiang seems to be very familiar with Ding Yuan, and some secular etiquette is avoided.
"Lord Assassin, it seems that the Nu family's eyebrows are deeply locked. It seems that there is something annoying?"
Tianxiang's voice was as light as a spring breeze, which made people feel very comfortable. Ding Yuan nodded and did not avoid it. Unexpectedly, he told Tianxiang roughly the conversation with Wen Han just now. Of course, Ding Yuan didn't say some of these words.
Tianxiang frowned, looking thoughtful, and it was another beautiful scenery.
"There are some words that Tianxiang should say."
"Oh, Tianxiang has a good relationship with me. Don't worry, just say something."
"Tianxiang believes that Lord Shi should lend food to the champion."
"Ha ha, I didn't expect that I would be deeply sought after by the heirs and dignitaries of the rich families in Bingzhou. Even my son Fengxian, who didn't like Tianxiang, would fall in love with extraordinary literature."
For Ding Yuan's ridicule, Tianxiang just smiled faintly and shook her head gently.
"It's not. Tianxiang is just a wind and moon woman, how dare she interced with others? Don't make fun of Tianxiang. Tianxiang just feels that the champion is indeed for the benefit of more people.
Indeed, as he said, as long as those high-ranking rich families are willing to give up a little, they can let many homeless people survive without rice.
And if he really succeeds. Lord Assassin can also follow his example and benefit the people of Bingzhou.
"Tianxiang beauty, are you so sure that Wen Fanfan can succeed?"
"I'm not sure. But I think the champion Lang Fei is an ordinary person.
"Isn't it an ordinary person? For this reason, I wanted to lend him 5,000 stones of grain. Tianxiang Beauty, are you a little tricky?
"Ha ha, what about Lord Assassin's opinion that it's not a child's joke?"
Tianxiang smiled again, with fair and flawless skin, like the perfect facial features carved by God. The smile in those eyes can lock the hearts of men in the world.
Ding Yuan was dull for a while. Although he was over half a hundred years old, he was physically strong and loved beauty. Such a beauty can be obtained as long as he is a man.
"It's better. Let's make a bet. I bet that this extraordinary article can succeed. If Wenbufan really has the courage to suppress the rich family in Hedong, I am willing to pay a lot of money to redeem the innocence of Tianxiang Beauty.
If the extraordinary article finally fails, the old man will also redeem his innocence for Tianxiang Beauty, but Tianxiang Beauty will marry me and become my husband's concubine.
