When Liu Xin heard that Zhang Ren was coming, he hurriedly asked someone to bring Zhang Ren into the living room. He originally planned to wait until Ruicheng was basically built before looking for Zhang Ren, but he didn't expect that he found him first.

"Zhang Ren has met the prefect!" Zhang Ren saw Liu Xin's respectful attitude and saluted Liu Xin.

Zhang Ren is the best in Yizhou in terms of martial arts, strategy, and government affairs. But in terms of martial arts, apart from Gan Ning and Liu Xin, it is really difficult to find someone better than him. It can only be said that the martial arts style in Yizhou is not strong. Like Zhang Ren,

Gan Ning and others all learned their true skills after leaving Yizhou.

"Jun Gui is here, there is no need to be so polite. I originally planned to visit Jun Gui some time later. I am very happy to see Jun Gui arrive today!" Liu Xin said happily when he saw Zhang Ren.

.

He checked Zhang Ren's attributes. He had 86 points in force, which he had not improved much in recent years, 88 points in intelligence, and 81 points in military strategy. All three attributes were first-class, but in Liu Xin's opinion, his overall strength was far above first-class. Look again.

Zhang Ren's bond value is already 89 points, and Zhang Ren's opinion of him is actually higher than that of many of his generals.

"Your Excellency came from Youzhou, Zhang Ren should have visited you as soon as possible, but the situation in Shu County is complicated, and all the rights are in the hands of the aristocratic family. If you come here at that time, not only will you not be able to help you, but you will be in big trouble."

." Zhang Ren looks like a scholar, but his steps are steady and his tone is gentle, giving people a sense of intimacy. It seems that Zhang Ren has grown a lot since returning to Shu County in the past few years.

"I know that you have secretly helped a lot of strongholds in the past few years. This time I am going to Shu County as an official. I wonder if you are willing to help me?" Liu Xin asked directly. The bond value was almost 90, and he did not dare to recruit.

The other party, don't waste this great opportunity.

Zhang Ren is a member of the Zhang family, the county magistrate of Chengdu. Even though he is just a side branch, his understanding of Shu County must be much better than his own. He has ways to deal with Shu County aristocratic families. Zhang Ren just complements his different understanding of Shu County aristocratic families.

"I heard that when your Excellency arrived in Shu County, you went directly to the south of Linqiong County. Now that your Excellency has returned to Chengdu, I am afraid that the place has already stabilized. I wonder what your next step is going to be?" Zhang Ren asked.

What he asked must be how to deal with the Shu County family. Zhang Ren did not mention that Liu Xin had just resigned from the position of Governor Bo, nor did he ask about the public opinion war between Liu Xin and the family. He knew that Liu Xin was holding back now because he must be waiting for his army.

Upon arrival, Zhang Ren should be more familiar with Liu Xin than anyone else in Yizhou.

"What do you think Jun Gui should do next?" Liu Xin asked with a smile, seemingly not taking his current difficulties to heart.

"It's almost July now, and your army should arrive soon. Changli's elite troops are far inferior to those of the garrison counties in Yizhou. Even Xu Xiaowei's 10,000 elite troops are no match. Besides, your Excellency also has Xiandu cavalry.

It is not difficult for you to capture the four major aristocratic families in Chengdu County, but the situation in Yizhou is different from that of Youzhou and Jizhou. All the people have aristocratic families and are inextricably linked to each other. If you take action to capture the four major aristocratic families,

The entire Chengdu County will definitely be in chaos, and the other seven counties and three counties in Shu County will definitely be more resistant to you." Zhang Ren said to Liu Xin.

This is why he came to Liu Xin this time. Liu Xin has already taken back the position of Bo, the governor of the palace. If the conflict between him and the aristocratic family gets too big, even if he is justified, most people will not stand on his side. Yizhou is

so.

"It has been more than two months since I arrived in Shu County. If it was just to capture the various families in Chengdu County, why wait until now?

I already understand the meaning of the rules. The reason why aristocratic families can be so unscrupulous towards their own officials is that they can control all the people. Even most mountain bandits and water bandits have connections with them.

I will first compete with them for the people's support. As the prefect of Shu County, I can definitely do more for the people than the aristocratic family, and I am right and correct. As long as I can do better than the aristocratic family, the people will naturally support me. Jun Gui said

Really?" Liu Xin said.

"Your Majesty wants to open up wasteland and farm in the south of Linqiong County [Changnan Lake]. This will indeed enable you to establish a foothold in Shu County. The bandits there are just labor that you can use at any time.

However, your Excellency must capture Chengdu County to control the entire Shu County. Nowadays, the cultivated land in the entire Shu County is basically in the hands of aristocratic families. Food is the basis of people's lives. Even if you have all kinds of means, if you don't have food, you can only bow to the aristocratic families in the end.

I feel that you need to use force as a supplement, and in the end both parties have to negotiate and compromise. You can try to contact the other party first, so that uncontrollable conflicts are less likely to occur." Zhang Rendao.

What he said may be the best path for a general governor in Shu County to compromise with the aristocratic family and secure his position as the governor of Shu County. But Liu Xin would definitely not do that. In his opinion, leaving

If you stay in these aristocratic families, you will leave a big hidden danger for your future.

"Are you afraid that I will kill the Chengdu County family? Are you here to test my attitude today?" Liu Xin looked at Zhang Ren and said with a smile.

Zhang Ren looked into Liu Xin's eyes, and he could feel that Liu Xin did not take him seriously, and he did not have any worries about the people's hearts. It seemed that everything was under his control, but Zhang Ren wanted to

I don't know what Liu Xin can do.

"Sir, do you have a way to solve the problem of food supply?" Zhang Ren ignored Liu Xin's seemingly stern inquiry. He could feel that Liu Xin valued him and showed no hostility at all.

Liu Xin looked at Zhang Ren and smiled without saying a word. He has never recognized himself as the master now. Liu Xin cannot tell others his secrets at will.

Zhang Ren saw Liu Xin's look and knew that he was asking something he shouldn't have asked. If Liu Xin could find a way to solve the problem of food, and if there was more food, he could win over the people and compete with the aristocratic family, then it would be the core secret that could change the general trend of the world.

, how can you treat people so easily!

"Tomorrow we will take a boat from Changli County to Nan County. The first group of people will arrive soon, and they will bring solutions to solve the food problem. If Jungui is interested, you can come with me to Ruixian County tomorrow!" Liu Xin invited

arrive.

This invitation is not just that simple. After seeing Liu Xin's secret, can Zhang Ren escape? Zhang Ren also knows that this is Liu Xin's invitation to him. If Liu Xin can really solve the food problem, let alone Chengdu County

I am afraid that no one in the family, including Liu Yan, is Liu Xin's opponent in the entire Yizhou.

Since Zhang Ren came back from Fenghuang Mountain, he has been thinking about his future. His martial arts and talents are outstanding in the entire Yizhou. Liu Yan has invited him to be his chariot many times, but Zhang Ren has never agreed because
