Chapter 345: Zhou Shang surrenders

After hearing Zhou Yu's words, Lu Bu felt quite embarrassed.

Zhou Yu is a student of Shanghai University and he also appreciates him very much. He has personally met him at Shanghai University.

But now, he actually brought his troops to attack the city where his uncle was.

This is indeed unkind.

Lu Bu couldn't help but say to Zhou Yu: "Gongjin, I really didn't know that Zhou Shang was your uncle in advance. If I had known in advance, I would definitely not have met each other. Alas, I feel ashamed to speak!"

This is what Lu Bu said in his heart.

If I had known that Zhou Shang was Zhou Yu's uncle, would it be so troublesome? Contact Zhou Yu directly, and everyone would just sit down and talk slowly.

On Zhou Yu's side, he heard that County Governor Lu actually talked about this matter in an apology tone.

Obviously, Jun Governor Lu did not regard himself as a child, but regarded himself as a person with equal status!

This moved Zhou Yu very much.

Zhou Yu couldn't help but say, "My Lord County Master, under my persuasion, my uncle actually had the idea of ​​surrendering to the Lord County Master, but my uncle had a concern."

Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but be overjoyed and asked quickly: "Gongjin, tell me, what are your uncle's concerns?"

Zhou Yu couldn't help but say, "My uncle is afraid that the county magistrate will attack the aristocratic family in the future. My uncle's intention is to protect my Zhou family."

After hearing Zhou Yu's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but ponder.

I had previously done something to attack the aristocratic families in Wujun and Kuaiji County. Although I did it secretly, I could not escape the eyes of those aristocratic families.

Although Dangyang Jun and Yuzhang County did not have a large family with the names of the entire Han Dynasty, there were still many small and medium-sized families.

Lu Bu's attitude towards the aristocratic families will inevitably arouse hatred from these families, and they will inevitably interfere everywhere in the future.

And my current attitude towards the Zhou family will inevitably affect the attitudes of other families.

Seeing Lu Bu pondering, Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel a heart hanging.

On the one hand, Junzhu Lu was the person he admired the most and the leader he was willing to follow throughout his life.

On the other hand, it is one's own family.

Zhou Yu was in a mess at this moment.

After a while, Lu Bu finally said: "Gongjin, with your intelligence and intelligence, you must have thought of a problem, that is, the aristocratic families are the source of chaos. If the Han Dynasty did not have so many aristocratic families, it would not be like this."

Everyone actually understands this question.

However, the power of the aristocratic families is too strong. Now the power of the aristocratic families is all the aristocratic families, and even if you understand it, it is useless.

Zhou Yu nodded, looked at Lu Bu nervously, not knowing what he was going to say next.

Then Lu Bu continued, "Actually, I don't mean to kill the aristocratic families as soon as possible, but one thing is that all the aristocratic families under my rule must hand over the land."

"Of course, I will not let them hand over the land in vain, but will take the market price to buy it! Under my rule, the people will distribute the land according to the head, and taxes will also be collected according to the head. People's land is not allowed to be bought and sold."

"In this way, the future land annexation can be eliminated! The people will not lose land, and as long as they do not lose land, there will be no major disaster!"

Hearing Lu Bu's request, Zhou Yu couldn't help but nod.

Zhou Yu could naturally hear that Lu Bu's method was the best way to solve the annexation of land by aristocratic families.

Moreover, this method can accurately count the population and collect taxes more convenient.

It can be said that this method is to win three goals in one fell swoop.

The solution is a good idea, but will those aristocratic families agree?

After thinking for a while, Lu Bu said, "Mr. County Master, I agree with your approach very much, I am afraid that my uncle will not agree. After all, for a family, the most important thing is to own land. If the land is lost, will the family lose its support?"

In ancient times, the attitude towards land was probably the same as that of modern people to treat real estate.

The land is like a golden rooster that can lay eggs. Who is willing to sell it?

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Actually, after you lose the land, you can still buy a house and shop and save more money. Isn't that the same principle?"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "This is naturally different. For example, during wars, shops and houses may be damaged, but the land will not be. For example, if the descendants are not worthy of their filial piety, they may lose all their money, but if there is land, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Lu Bu asked with a smile, "Then aren't you afraid that they will sell the land?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but be speechless.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Look, since land is allowed to be bought and sold, your descendants may sell the land. In fact, buying a real estate and shops is theoretically the same as buying a land. If you think about it carefully, you can figure it out."

After listening to Lu Bu's words, Zhou Yu couldn't help but think.

After a while, Zhou Yu couldn't help but stand up and said to Lu Bu, "Mr. County Magistrate, I will go back and persuade my uncle to agree to the request of the County Magistrate. But I can only guarantee that I will do my best, and I cannot guarantee that I will succeed."

Lu Bu smiled and said to Zhou Yu, "You can do your best and I will wait for your news."

After Zhou Yu returned, he told Zhou Shang about Lu Bu's conditions.

After hearing this condition, Zhou Shang couldn't help but jump up and said repeatedly: "No, no!"

Zhou Yu couldn't help asking: "Uncle, if you don't agree to this condition, I'll kill the county magistrate Lu into the city. Wouldn't we still have to throw away the land?"

Zhou Shang gritted his teeth and said, "Then we will go to other places, buy land and rebuild my Zhou family!"

Zhou Yu couldn't help asking: "Uncle, but if I leave Danyang and Wanling, will my Zhou family still exist?"

Hearing this sentence, Zhou Shang couldn't help but fall silent.

Yes, their Zhou family is not a big family after all.

Once they leave Wanling City, their Zhou family will die in name only.

After all, most of the wealth owned by their Zhou family is land.

And they can't take the land away at all.

From this perspective, although land is a fixed wealth, it is sometimes a bond.

You see, if you save money, you can run away with it.

If you have land, what can you do to bring the land away?

After a while of silence, Zhou Shang said in pain: "But if I lose the land, my Zhou family will lose the foundation for establishing a family!"

Zhou Yu comforted him: "Uncle, at least we can protect the Zhou family! Besides, Jung Lv is not a kind person, and he will definitely not treat you badly."

Even though he said that, Zhou Shang still felt aching.

When the news of Zhou Shang's willingness to surrender came, Lu Bu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Zhou Shang is willing to surrender, but he represents more than just a Wanling City!

You know, Zhou Shang was the magistrate of Danyang County.

Once Zhou Shang surrendered, it would be almost the same as the entire Danyang County was included in his hands!
