Chapter 356: Abandoning Lvyin Township
"Official, my father wrote a letter two days ago, saying that the conflict between our Qilin Villa and the county government is getting bigger and bigger. We took 80% of the house deeds and 90% of the land deeds in Zhuo County, and Yuan Gang raised the grain tax to two stone
, the people no longer have any income from farming unless we can reduce the land rent to less than half a stone.
Leader Yan has been having a very bad fight with Yuan Gang this month, the prefect has already come forward, and Yuan Gang is too evil!" Wang Xiaohua said angrily.
"Yuan Gang, he is just a person who was pushed to the front desk. We in Luyin Township may not have a good life in the future.
We have no officials in Zhuo County, so we can only compete with each other through force. It will be very disadvantageous for me to be mentioned to the court by Liu Yu. Having a bad relationship with Yuan Gang is going against the Yuan family, and the Yuan family
We really can't afford it now.
So, tell your father... let everyone prepare to evacuate Zhuoxian County! Come to Pingzihe City, the conditions here are much better than in Luyin Township...
In a few days, let them slowly sell the house deeds and land deeds. From now on, only 3,000 people will be left in Luyin Township as a stronghold, and the house deeds and land deeds will be sold at the proper price. If Yuan Gang wants to make trouble with us, just let him continue to make trouble. Don't make things worse.
Just make too much noise." Liu Xin thought for a while and decided to give up Green Shadow Township. Now that Green Shadow Township would not have a great impact on him, he would no longer have to worry about accidents if he took his mother over.
"Then will my father come too? There are many BMWs in our Caochang District. Are there any corn fields in the new town? What about the sweet potato fields?" Wang Xiaohua continued to ask.
"Of course your father will come over, now let's get everyone ready! From now on, all the land to the west of Luyin River will be sold, and only ordinary grains will be grown to the east of Luyin River. Let Zhou Weibin stay there from now on to make wine and raise chickens.
Let’s stop everything now! Let’s go to Zhangwu Stronghold in the spring next year and come over by boat together,” said Liu Xin.
By giving up Luyin Township, Liu Xin will not be afraid of Liu Yu's threats. If he and Liu Yu really fall out, he will have no worries. He wants to fight for the world, and he must give up what should be given up, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble.
"Well! I will write a book and tell my dad tomorrow.
My father’s letter this time also said that Lu Zhi sent people to Qilin Villa. The other party was very grateful to us after seeing the Lu family’s situation, and said that they would definitely help anyone who could help in the future!” Wang Xiaohua looked puzzled.
Looking at Liu Xin, she was unwilling to give up Qilin Villa.
The Lu family owes Liu Xin a big favor. The last time Lu Zhi was reinstated, it was Liu Xin's credit. This time he saved everyone in the Lu family. This is another big favor. However, Liu Xin knew that Lu Zhi could not protect himself in the court.
, it is most difficult for such a foolish and loyal person to survive in the imperial court now. He told Lu Zhi that Lu Zhi could not help him.
"Did the other party say that they wanted to take Lu Yu away?" What Liu Xin valued most was Lu Yu, a child who could become prime minister in the future.
"No, Lu Yu and the rest of the Lu family still live in Qilin Villa. They go to school with the village's children every day and occasionally work with the people to make money." Wang Xiaohua said.
"The fleet will come next year and bring all the Lu family with it. Don't leave any traces of the BMW, sweet potatoes, and corn there. Then I plan to build another city between Xiandu County and Pingzihe City. From now on, everyone will live in the new city.
Here." Liu Xin said.
Xiandu County, Pingzihe City or Changli County are not safe places. It is necessary to build another city in the center of Changli County so that more cultivated land can be reclaimed.
It was already noon. Wang Xiaohua went to prepare lunch for Liu Xin. Zhang Qingyu massaged Liu Xin quietly. Everything seemed very harmonious.
Wang Xiaohua has taken over the family's accounts and has also managed the operations of the prefect's mansion. She behaves like a hostess, and Zhang Qingyu is doing the work for her.
At the lunch table, Liu Xin saw Wang Xiaohua personally serving food to her, and felt a little sorry for her.
"Little flower!"
"Yeah!" Wang Xiaohua looked up at Liu Xin.
"When my mother and your father come over in the spring, we will arrange the wedding, and Qingyu will come with us," Liu Xin said.
"Okay!" Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but feel happy, and glanced at Zhang Qingyu with a smile. She would always have a bad name at home if she was not married, even if everyone knew that she was Liu Xin's fiancée.
Liu Xin has been busy with the war this year, and now he finally has a chance to breathe. He needs to get married quickly. After getting married, his group will be more stable. If something happens to him, Wang Xiaohua can help him stabilize his subordinates!
The three people who had the meal were very happy. Liu Xin suddenly remembered why he hadn't seen his sister Liu Wanliu. She had always been in the prefect's mansion and rarely left.
"Xiaohua, where is the eldest sister?" Liu Xin asked.
"I went shopping this morning and haven't come back yet. Do I need to send someone to look for him?" Wang Xiaohua asked.
"No, nothing will happen in Xiandu County. I will go and explain to Zhongde about next year's wedding later, and I will send out invitations after the new year." Liu Xin said.
Liu Xin didn't know anyone with high moral character to witness his marriage. Cheng Yu was more than 20 years older than Liu Xin, and he came from a middle-class family. He was also the most prestigious person in Changli County besides Liu Xin. It would be best to find him as a witness.
but.
After lunch, Liu Xin went back to his room to rest for a while. Seeing that his status was slowly increasing, Liu Xin knew that the injury this time was very serious, and he would never take such a risk again in the future.
After lying down for a while, Zhang Qingyu came into the room and said that Huang Zhong was here. After the autumn harvest in mid-October, Liu Xin went to Liaoxi, Xuantu, Liaodong, Daifang, and Lelang counties to prepare food. Zhou Tai, as Polu captain, took charge of the northern six provinces of Youzhou.
Liu Xin did not want to unify the north, but each county had to pay its own protection fee for one year.
When Liu Xin came out of the house, he saw that Huang Zhong had not yet taken off his armor, and Huang Xu was talking to his father. When he saw Liu Xin coming over, Huang Zhong hurriedly saluted Liu Xin.
"No need, let's talk about the situation in the five counties." Liu Xin said.
"My lord, the situation in Liaoxi County is complicated. Qiu Liju has taken refuge with Liu Yu, the prefecture pastor. Several counties have only acquired 20,000 stones of grain and grass.
Xuantu County and Liaodong County were also active, but it was not easy for them to resettle the people in the county this year. In the end, they gave 70,000 shi of food.
Lelang County and Daifang County were affected by the Fuyu tribe, and in the end they could only provide 80,000 shi of food." Huang Zhong said to Liu Xin.
The five counties raised only 170,000 shi of food and grass, which was not enough for Liu Xin's 10,000 soldiers. However, Liu Xin knew that the other party was really poor and they were afraid of themselves. The food might be their limit.
"As long as you are willing to provide grain, we will do more trade with the officials who provide grain next year. You can tell the county magistrate about the situation of this grain collection later.
It's already winter, go home and spend more time with your family!" Liu Xin said.
