Chapter 0348 Rumors

The rain is continuous. Look at the county town of Ban'an County, which is still ten miles away. The sky is dark and heavy, and you can faintly hear the sound of the wind.

Lord... you? "Mr. Kou saw Yu Fan stop riding, with a face that seemed both happy and sad. For some reason, he approached and asked.

Hey, how many people can come back from the battlefield battle

A thousand soldiers returned under the curtain, with blood still lingering on their armor. In the atmosphere of solemnity, everyone remained silent.

The bandits are not only in Pingshou County, but also in other counties.

Yu Fan saw the bandits and soldiers together. He was the head of a county and was even more legitimate. He planted private soldiers of the Yu family into the army, which was not a secret and should not be made public in all noble families.

This encirclement and suppression of bandits was considered a triumph, but the return was very low-key, as the losses exceeded 20%.

Most ambitious people believe that as long as they can control military power, they can make achievements, but when they do, they realize that every step is difficult.

This time the loss is 20%, among which there are some direct descendants of the Yu family. Although not many, if they are worn down like this, they may even spend their entire family fortune.

Stop fighting! "Yu Fan commanded.

Yes! "Someone answered.

On the road, there was a great deal of publicity about victory, but near the county town, flags were still raised and drums were extinguished. The newly appointed governor Yu Cheng'en and the three thousand cavalry camps were still there.

Father and son, superiors and subordinates, as well as the laws and regulations of the court, all need to be taken into consideration.

Seeing the officials approaching at the sound, ox carts crowded the entire open space in front of the city, causing Yu Fan, who was about to return to the mansion, to furrow his brow. The pressure of the great calamity changed him a lot, and he no longer liked this kind of extravagance and noise.

Immediately his brow relaxed, it wasn't a bad thing, so he stepped forward.

After a formal greeting, I was able to enter the mansion. Inside, there was a faint row of lights, and when I approached, I saw that it was someone from the mansion who was welcoming me.

With a wave of his hand, he went straight to the study. Yu Fan walked under the temple gate from the rain and entered this place, stepping on green bricks. He was stunned and finally woke up.

Master, this is the latest intelligence, including information from other states and a summary of the situation in our own state... "Mr. Kou followed in, already holding a stack of documents.

Meeting! "Yu Fan took it, calmed down, and began to browse.

In my estimation, since the beginning of winter, there have been military frictions between Northern Wei and the court, but there have been no major battles with more than ten thousand people, and they have entered a stalemate period with the court

The court conducted large-scale trials of strong liquor in various border states, dumping it on the grasslands, which angered the King of Wei

Angry? It's like I've seen it before. "Yu Fan chuckled, and Mr. Kou also smiled, knowing that this kind of thing was a matter of willingness to fight and willingness to suffer. The court demonstrated strong production and control, and Northern Wei suffered a hidden economic loss, but at least gained more liquor.

I remember this was thanks to the brewing method submitted by Ye Qing, but things are different. Yu Fan knew that the originally relaxed relationship between Ye Qing and the state capital had become tense again.

Ye Qing, Ye Qing, you have also miscalculated at times. The interests of the court during times of peace and war are ultimately different

Yu Fan smiled with a relaxed mood and looked down again. The heroes from various states declared themselves to have returned from the local army, and their strength had greatly increased. The suppression of the bandits was also continuing, and the war was raging

The Xuanhuang Altar, which is said to have been destroyed in history, has been rediscovered from Xiazhou. The discoverer reported to the Daomen that the Emperor Tude of the Daomen was closely following this treasure. However, the news leaked and shook the Central Plains. The court issued an order overnight to intervene

Everyone knows that Da Cai is Tude. Although he has the precious national treasure of "Yuanchu Fengtu", he will not be dissatisfied with the Zhenyun magic weapon. Yu Fan circled on this and was very interested: "Follow the follow-up of this Tude treasure, I want to know the bounties offered by all parties

Yes, "Mr. Kou immediately responded.

Yu Fan turned over the page and continued browsing. Due to the special advantages of this province, many evil demons were killed in various places, and they were dispersed and harassed. In view of this, Governor Yan Shenyuan suggested that the court screen the black seals on the forehead, and those who confirm them should be executed immediately. The rest, regardless of their suspicion, should be sent to the battlefield for consumption... The Northern Wei Dynasty's approach was to eliminate them all.

No one would say anything to the barbarians of Northern Wei, "Yu Fan thought of shaking his head, then frowned as he looked down.

It's Ye Qing again

All these unfavorable trivial news, connected together, are shocking to the heart. Xian Zhao, Shui Fu, Shougong, Da Jie, Alliance... Looking at them, there was another round of thunder in the sky, and Yu Fan was stunned. His gaze stopped on a line of small words: "Holding the water, Ao Jingyu cooperated to fight... Rainfall... Floods

Yu Fan was taken aback for a moment, recalling the beautiful and gentle maidservants in the Water Hall of the Dragon Palace, the princess disguised as an inspector to select a son-in-law... Damn it, that should have been

His face twisted for a moment, then he woke up and calmed down, throwing away irrelevant thoughts and connecting all the information about Ye Qing's recent situation.

Dragon Palace... Water Mansion... Dragon Maiden... Ye Qing... In a daze, a clue filled the last piece of the puzzle

Yu Fan tapped on several cases with his fingers, and an idea gradually became clear in his heart. He laughed out loud and said, "I have a new idea about Ye Qing in the capital city... It is a convenient matter for the Governor General, and he will be willing to help deliver this fatal blow. Mr. Kou, you see... At that time, it will be the time for everyone to push and divide the feast from the wall

At first, Mr. Kou didn't realize it, but as he listened, his face changed. He nodded cautiously and said, "Yes, for the sake of everything, we still need to spread some rumors

Pingshou County

With the further formation of various networks in the northern alliance of the county, a vitality has emerged in the Yejiazhuang area. Water mills and windmills have been built along the Nanyu River, industrial areas near military camps have been renovated, and roads have been renovated

The appearance of tall boilers and chimneys in the workshop area, accompanied by the daily black smoke of charcoal fires, is very eye-catching.

Surrounding Ye Fu, there are already spontaneous markets and streets organized by the villagers, and the area all the way to Xintiaoli is very popular. At this point, the plan was officially made.

Various professionals gathered to participate, from underground to above ground, covering every aspect. The streets were neat, and even the flowers and trees were personally planned by Qianqian.

On this day, Ye Qing and his men were patrolling.

According to the distant view, the Ye Mansion is the center. Construction will be carried out within a 40 mile radius from the east to the Cao family, south to the old land of the Hua family, west to the official road of Xintiaoli, and north to the Fudi of Nanlian Mountain

L ü Shangjing was full of enthusiasm as she reported along, "As we are only in the early stages and don't have so much funding, we will first build three market towns in the southeast, west, and north, while also managing the northern Fudi area... The key is to enclose the ten mile gap between our home and Fudi with a wall and build a new workshop area. This is an easy project to do in the early stage, and the money will be spent like running water

L ü Shangjing paused for a moment and said, "Relying solely on the capture of the ruins of the magic nest is not a long-term solution. After the obstruction of the Muer tribe in the north of the mountain, the revenue of the liquor industry sharply decreased, and there is still some insufficient investment in the follow-up

After thinking for a moment, Ye Qing asked, "Half of the Hua family's inheritance will be transferred to us, not to mention the land, but also the assets of 100000 taels, right

Ji Caizhu is in charge of this matter, "he said in response," Nearly half of the servant tenants have joined my family to settle and gather these over a thousand people. It will cost 50000 yuan to build new courtyards and houses, and the remaining 50000 yuan will be used for this casualty compensation and Ye Huolei's material replenishment

These days, Commander Zhou's training expenses for new recruits are even more supported by land taxes... "A steward is also complaining.

The alliance members have some money, but they hide it tightly... "This is some bold guy.

Listening to these, Ye Qing tapped her fingers and thought about it.

After finally producing a real person at home and wielding the power to defeat evil demons, this' momentum 'cannot be interrupted, so we can only take one risk

At this point, I can only say, "Hold on for a while longer, I'll figure out a way

How long? "Asked Lv Shangjing, and the seven deacons, including Ji Caizhu, had sharp eyes. The more they worked, the more they lacked money - a large number of construction achievements were accompanied by a huge funding gap, and the rapid increase in deficit was like walking a tightrope, almost driving them crazy.

Half a month, if arranged properly, our family will soon have... "Ye Qing paused, stopped speaking, and looked into the distance.

A messenger came galloping from afar.

Ye Qing remained calm and continued to give orders, then went over and read the secret letter, flipping through it. His heart sank, but he remained calm on the surface.

There is a rumor in Nancang County that the governor has organized a noble family to deal with Ye Qing... "This place is secluded and deep. Ye Qing put down his letter, took a short walk, stood still, and looked into the distance before casually greeting," Mr. Lv, come and take a look

Yes! "Lv Shangjing hurriedly answered, took the letter, and only glanced at it, feeling a sense of awe in her heart. After reading it, she followed up silently.

Ye Qing glanced slightly at Lv Shangjing and said melancholically, "What do you have in mind

L ü Shangjing calmed down and said, "Although this matter is a fact, it is all internal and never leaked. At this point, everyone at the county level is already aware of it

The governor should not be so unwise, or as someone else has suggested

But in this way, there may be turbulence in the originally stable situation, "Lv Shangjing pondered blankly, with a worried tone.

The difference in energy level between a governor of a state and a falsely appointed viscount of Nanlian is so great that even the identity of a heavenly being cannot be truly reliable.

It may be difficult to strangle a celestial being, but there is always a way to find a solution. It's just a matter of cost... Even if we don't strangle them, it's just blocking the space for growth. This is even more like a clash of hands, it's really impossible to prevent

Not to mention anything else, the alliance that was originally attached to may have had new intentions.

This is human nature. You, Ye Qing, can lead us to wealth and fight against thieves, but if we have to confront the governor, we cannot accompany him - everyone has this intention.

This alliance cannot be considered wrong, but it cannot be turned into a package. Don't pursue it, just keep an eye on it and record it! "Ye Qing took a few steps, stopped, and sneered.

Our Ye family's strength is the core, and it has been constantly growing. This is the strength we can rely on

Under the pressure of the governor, those who still follow our family are our true allies, and they will have their own interests and positions in the future

Shaking under the pressure of the governor, but without obvious rebels, we still need to unite

As for those who turn against us, we must resolutely crack down and kick them out, "Ye Qing said with some melancholy." In the past, we organized alliances because the liquor industry was newly established and we had to rely on them

Now that the recipe for the wine has been handed over to the court, we only have 20% profit, which is not much. It's not that we are begging them, it's that they are begging us

The bandits are everywhere, they don't rely on us, why should we protect them - let the governor protect them! "At this point, Ye Qing's tone was cold, with only a hint of killing intent.
