There is naturally no curfew in the manor. Therefore, when it is black everywhere, a lantern leads Fang Yingwu and slowly walks towards a house in the north of the village.

Zhuangzi is a villa prepared for Princess Yuzhen. However, this villa is not used a few times a year. Most of them are the officials sent by Princess Yuzhen to check the accounts. Even Ye Chang came and never lived here. To the northeast is the mansion of Jie San, the manager of the Zhuangtou. Although from the appearance, the scale of this mansion is much smaller than that of Princess Yuzhen, Fang Yingwu knew in his heart that Jie San's mansion was more luxurious and comfortable than the princess' mansion.

When my companion knocked on the door, after a while, a man opened the door. Seeing that it was Fang Yingwu, he immediately pulled him in and looked around and saw that there were no idle people waiting for him. He locked the door tightly.

Fang Yingwu walked straight into the hall with his hands behind his back. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw a table of rich wine and food. Jie San picked up the chopsticks and ate and drank, and put down the chopsticks and cursed. His bride sobbed in a whisper while holding a silk cutlery, while his two sons Jie Hu and Jie Bao were full of anger.

"If you don't go and flatter that guy, why come and do it?" Seeing Fang Yingwu, Jie San slapped the chopsticks on the table: "I've clearly agreed to give that guy a sensation together, but you're good. I pushed a certain family forward, but I shrank. Oh, the turtle is so forgetful. Don't think that if a certain family is in decline, you can have a good life. We are all tied to one place, and you never lack what a certain family does."

Fang Yingwu had a calm face: "You talk nonsense again, and you will turn around and leave."

He didn't argue or argue, and just one sentence made Jie San's arrogance shorten back.

Jie San relied on just an old lady who served Princess Yuzhen as a child, but Fang Yingwu was not the case. This guy, father and son, were sold as slaves from Huanchun County, but he didn't know what, his father hooked up with the people around Princess Yuzhen. According to some people, because of his handsome appearance, even Princess Yuzhen didn't look at him.

Of course, no one dares to mention this kind of rumor in person. Everyone knows one thing, that is, among the most useful people around the eldest princess, there is this father of the things.

It is said that Fang Yingwu's father was able to win Princess Yuzhen's favor, and this son made many contributions.

"Oh, I ate and beaten today, and was shackled in public for half a day. My face was ruined. It was just a few complaints. You don't allow me to have an attack?" Jie San stepped forward and grabbed him: "Brother Fang, Brother Fang, I know that you are a resourceful person. You still need to make suggestions on what you do today."

Fang Yingwu then snorted and sat down. Jie San winked at the bride beside him. The women went down immediately, and in a short while, they presented Fang Yingwu with a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"Brother Fang, after I gave me out today, what did you say to that guy? Why did you give the roster to that guy?"

"That guy wanted to kill the chicken and scare the monkey. He first scared me with your experience, and then promised me freedom. He would like to speak well for me on your side."

"You agreed to him like this and handed over the list?" Jie Hu next to him was anxious: "Uncle Fang, I didn't expect you to be like this..."

"Bon"

Jie San slapped him casually, showing a fierce look: "If you can't speak, you will listen from the side, no one will regard you as a mute."

Jie Hu covered his face, his eyes still felt angry. Fang Yingwu glanced at him sideways and snorted in his heart.

Jie San's two sons became more and more disrespectful. They dared to be so rude in front of him.

"At that time, if someone takes it back, that guy will definitely be on me. After all, he came to the order of the Lord. If he asked him to go to the Lord to complain, he would have lost face and we would not be able to get it." Fang Yingwu said lightly: "I pretended to be grateful and cried, and first deceived him into trust, and then told him that you have served as the headmaster of the village in this village for two generations and have kindness with the tenants. If you humiliate you today, I am afraid that the tenants on your village will feel uneasy."

"That's right, I feel uneasy." Jie Sanyi clapped his hands.

"I also told him that the tenants in my farm have been intermarried with your farm for generations, and the two parties have many marriages. Therefore, if your farm is unstable, my farm must be like this. I ask him to give him some money immediately and take the hearts of the tenants first..."

"Oh," Jie San was stunned.

"Silly, I just said that he wanted to grow kapok. Everyone had no food for three years. This is the money for the food for him pre-issue." Fang Yingwu sneered: "If he gave less, it was not enough for everyone to eat and chew for three years, then there was no need to say that everyone would abandon the tenant. If he gave more... people's hearts are the most greedy, and you will find someone to talk about it among the tenants. Everyone regards this as a common example and makes a fuss about it. How much money can he have to buy people's hearts?"

"Okay, wonderful" Jie San clapped his hands.

"Since you also think this strategy is great, then remember to act and take advantage of this tonight to go to each household to speak." Fang Yingwu whispered: "You know what to say."

"That's natural, it's worthy of being Brother Fang, it's true that great wisdom"

Jie San flattered Fang Yingwu hard, and Fang Yingwu was not stunned for a long time. After saying that, he got up and left. He sent him out. Jie San turned around and looked at his two sons, especially Jie Hu, and hated him and said indifferently: "Look, look, this is a trick. Just like you, you only know how to keep your family business in the future?"

"Aye, the child thinks that this person with the surname Fang is not a good bird. After all, Aye is charging forward in front of him, but he is hidden in the dark. Besides, didn't the person with the surname Ye agree to return the innocence of his father and son? If he really colludes with the person with the surname Ye..."

"You are willing to move your mind and are very happy for your father, but you are not moving enough." Jie San shook his head: "Fang Yingwu wants to escape from the ranks of slaves, but it is just a matter of his father's words. Why not take it? Even because of this identity, it is easy to enter and exit the side of the noble master and to act. Without this identity, how can they protect their family responsibilities? If nothing else, can he still be the manager of this Zhuangzi? If he can't be the manager, where does his family come from dozens of chews?"

Speaking of this, Jie San laughed and said, "That dog named Ye only thought that no one loved him as a slave, but he didn't know that the Fang family loved him as a slave. If something happened, he would have the support of the master behind him. If there was a benefit, he would enjoy it for his masters first."

Jie Sanjia, who had been crying over there, sighed: "That person surnamed Ye can take Zhuangzi from the master for three years. I guess he has a very good relationship with the master. Why do you have to make things difficult for him? In the opinion of a slave, it is better to act according to what he said..."

"What do you know? Women's opinion? If we follow his words and actions, our farm will be broken. How can we raise dozens of people in the yard? Is it just rely on old capital? What's more, he has been here for three years, and has figured out the inside and outside. He has to go to the Lord to complain to us. We have been embezzled by the Lord for years, and we are afraid that we will vomit all the money we have to be punished by the Lord. Now, the plan is to drive him away within a few months. As long as he cannot be listened to by the Tenant, our affairs will not be revealed. After driving him back, everything will be the same. We will still live this life of enjoying peace and happiness."

After Xie San said something, he drank his house, then opened the door and looked at the sky: "No need to delay, I will go now..."

According to Ye Chang's plan, the next day, the heads of the tenants from all the tenants would come to see him, the new person in charge. Early in the morning, he led the barbarians to check the land in the village and waited for the tenants to come.

The two farms are separated by a small river, and the soil is similar, which is very suitable for cotton growth. It can even be said that it is a waste to grow cotton. The barbarians were very satisfied and told Ye Chang one by one that they could definitely grow kapok here.

These barbarians were all contributed by the King of Nanzhao Ge Luofeng. Although Ge Luofeng had already expanded his ambitions at this time, he was not ready to rebel against the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, the people he sent were not afraid to do his best.

But the tenants came in a scattered manner. Until noon, dozens of them stood stumble. Ye Chang sent people to urge him several times, and each time there were only a few more people.

By this time, Ye Chang didn't know why there was something wrong with these tenants

He was not upset. Seeing that it was getting late, he began to name the roster.

There were originally 350 tenants in the two villages, and there should be 350 heads of households, but in the end there were only more than 80 people.

Ye Chang looked at Fang Yingwu and said, "Where is Jie San?"

"This, I sent someone to say that he was sick and uncomfortable in the morning, so I sent my son to listen to him." Fang Yingwu whispered to a man in front of him: "That is Jie San's eldest son Jie Hu."

"I'm sick, I'm cured. Who doesn't have three disasters and six difficulties?" Ye Chang nodded and said, "But what about the rest of the people, including the people in your village, have not come? What's the reason?"

Fang Yingwu smiled bitterly, but he wanted to speak but stopped. Ye Chang said: "Speak, don't hide it."

"Yesterday, I reported to my husband that the Jie family had a reputation for being in charge of this village. I heard that he was punished by his husband yesterday, and the tenants from both villages were all privately rumored...

"What's the legend?"

"Say that the husband wants to drive them away and force them to withdraw their tenants."

"Where is this? I'm trying to use them, how do you say you want to force them to withdraw your tenant?"

"Don't blame me, these tenants are short-sighted and do not know that they have good intentions. They said that the husband does not allow them to grow grain, but they have to grow kapok. If they don't grow grain this year, not to mention the court's tax, even if they are everyone's food, they don't know where they come from. Staying in the farm can only be a dead end, so everyone thinks..."

Speaking of this, Fang Yingwu closed his mouth and just looked at Ye Chang. Ye Chang frowned: "Didn't you tell everyone that the tax and rations for the past three years have been covered by someone?"

"Haha... what Langjun said was, but they didn't believe it. Langjun knew that these were all people from the countryside, and they never believed it.

"What should you do if you want?"

"If the husband is broad-minded, he will naturally pay them all the rations and taxes for three years, so that they can trust the husband."

These are hundreds of families, calculated by tens of thousands of guan a year, and tens of thousands of guan a year in three years. Fang Ying Materials thought that Ye Chang would not have such a lot of money, even if there were, he would not be able to raise it for a while. After all, there were only a few dozen people who came here with Fang Yingwu, and he could not transport so much money and food.

Even if it can be transported, the things can be used to help you, and rely on wealth to win people's hearts will make the tenants look down upon, thinking that as long as you make a quarrel, you can get it well.

As for Ye Chang's tough treatment, Fang Yingwu didn't think it would be possible at all. These are more than 300 tenants, and there are more than a thousand people behind them.

Ye Chang pursed her lips and looked a little nervous, which made Fang Yingwu very pleased.

"Are so many people dissatisfied? If you can comfort you well, you can only do this?" But Ye Chang said, which stunned him.

"this……"

"If this is the case, what's the use of this farm?" Ye Chang looked at him sideways: "Go back and say, if there is no one else tomorrow, then it's time to get together and part. Those who are willing to withdraw the tenant will return the tenant."

"My husband, I can't use it, I can't use it... Isn't this only a few thousand acres of land just for us slaves to be born to farm? We only have only twenty or thirty people, so where can we farm?" Fang Yingwu was suddenly panicked.

"So it depends on your ability. If you can summon the tenant, then it will be more than twenty or thirty of you. If you can't summon...haha."

Ye Chang laughed coldly. Fang Yingwu stared at him. After thinking for a while, he felt that he was just bluffing. He smiled bitterly: "My husband is really joking. This matter... even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't summon him back."

"If you can't do it, let Jie San do it. If you can't make peace with Jie San, then don't do it." Ye Chang said: "At least in the past three years, you can go back to Chang'an to rest."

"Ye Langjun... If you do this, I'm afraid the tenants will really get rid of the tenant..."

"It doesn't matter, I said that I would follow my side. I will take care of their livelihoods, but if I don't even get a little bit, why should I pay attention to them? I will withdraw my tenant and withdraw my tenant. I am still afraid that I can't find anyone to farm?"

After hearing this, Fang Yingwu sneered in his heart: Sure enough, although he heard that this person was wise, he was a scholar after all, and he was not familiar with worldly affairs. At this time, he really couldn't find a tenant to farm in Mengzhou. Since that's the case, I'll help him, the bigger the trouble, the better.

"Since that's the case, someone has nothing to say. But what happened here will be reported to your master."

"You report it."

Ye Chang didn't care at all.

Fang Yingwu turned around and left. Ye Chang continued to discuss with the barbarians how to plant cotton. The barbarians brought a lot of cotton seeds, but they still didn't want to plant thousands of acres. Ye Chang asked them to pick out the most suitable fields to plant. As for the rest, they made plans. If they don't plant this year, they will also change to plant cotton next year.

The next morning, Ye Chang came to the field at the agreed time at Chenshi, but the number of tenants coming here today was smaller than yesterday, and only fifty people were present. Ye Chang saw that the fifty people looked bitter, and knew that they were all not favored by the patrol, and he was delighted.

But these fifty people were a little uneasy when they saw their deserted appearance. At the moment of the year, Ye Chang finally stepped onto the temporary platform.
