Da Qin: I exposed myself as a time traveler, why are you Zhao Gao panicking?

Chapter 137 It is imperative to measure the world’s land!

The gate of the manor was closed, and no one came out to greet him.

Xiao He sneered and said to the officials around him: "It seems that these clans are planning not to come forward. In this case, let's do it in accordance with the law."

He slowly raised his hand and waved forward.

This action is simple and decisive, but as powerful as a general swinging his sword on the battlefield!

"Start measuring the land!" His voice was loud and firm, echoing outside the manor.

After receiving the order, the officials acted quickly.

They have a clear division of labor: some are responsible for measuring and others are responsible for recording.

However, at this moment, a group of servants suddenly emerged from the manor, with fierce looks on their faces, trying to hinder the officials' actions.

"What are you doing? This is an order from the court!"

An official shouted loudly, but the servants ignored him. They pushed the officials and tried to snatch the measuring instruments.

Faced with this sudden commotion, Xiao He did not get angry.

He looked at all this with cold eyes, as if he was watching a farce that had been anticipated.

He knew that these servants were just pawns of the clans, and the real struggle was yet to come.

"Bring them all to me!" Xiao He spat out a few words coldly.

After receiving the order, the officials behind them immediately took action. They quickly subdued the servants and tied them up one by one.

The manor suddenly became quiet, with only the sounds of officials measuring the land and the occasional whispered curse.

Xiao He stood aside quietly, his eyes never leaving the gate of the manor.

Fortunately, the clans within the door never came forward.

Xiao He waited for someone to measure the land, registered it in the register, and then left.

The servants were untied and stood up cursingly. A cold snort suddenly came from the manor...

Soon after, news came that some clans had allocated land under the names of servants and spread it out to avoid measurement.

After Xiao He heard this, he became furious!

He snapped at the crime and angrily shouted: "These clans are so cunning! Do you think you can evade the law in this way? It's simply a wishful thinking!"

Inside the official office, the atmosphere was solemn.

Xiao He sat in front of the case, his eyes as bright as a torch, and he ordered:

"Register all lands assigned to servants and begin investigating the matter."

His voice was not high-pitched, but it conveyed a sense of majesty, making all the officials present obey his orders with dignity.

An official in charge of registration took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Sir, this matter involves many clans, and I'm afraid there will be a lot of resistance."

There was a hint of worry in his tone.

Xiao He sneered, with a sharp flash in his eyes: "Resistance? I have already expected it, but the laws are like a mountain, how can they be abolished because of their obstruction? You only need to act in accordance with the law, and anyone who dares to obstruct will be severely punished! "

After that, he turned to another official: "You lead a team of people and go deep into the people to collect evidence. I want to know how these clans evaded measurement. Once verified, all those lands will belong to the imperial court!"

The official took the order and left, and Xiao He's eyes fell on the map again.

His fingers traced tracks on the map,

It was as if I had seen the scene where the land that had been taken away was returned to the imperial court.

Time was running out, and he knew he couldn't slack off.

This struggle is not only related to the majesty of the imperial court, but also related to the livelihood of countless people.

He must win this struggle and strive for a fair result for the court and the people.

As night falls, the official office is still brightly lit.

Xiao He sat in front of the case, processing documents one by one.

His eyes were firm and bright, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.

He knew this road would be difficult, but he was ready. On this day, at dawn, the streets and alleys of Xianyang City were already bustling with people.

A piece of news spread rapidly in the city as if it had wings, causing thousands of waves!

Xiao He wants to conduct a thorough inventory of all the land assigned to the servants' names.

Once verified, all those lands will belong to the imperial court.

This news was like a bolt from the blue to those local clans!

They have controlled a large amount of land for generations and enjoy endless privileges and benefits!

However, now all this seems to be in vain.

"What should we do? Xiao He is serious this time!"

A clan leader paced back and forth anxiously, his face pale and his eyes filled with fear and uneasiness.

"We can't sit still and wait for death! We must find a way to stop him!" Another clan leader said through gritted teeth.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How to stop him? Xiao He is ruthless, and with the support of His Majesty and Tingwei, we are no match at all."

At the same time, in another corner of Xianyang City, ordinary people cheered for joy.

They have been oppressed and exploited by their clans for a long time and live in dire straits.

Now, they finally see a glimmer of hope.

"Great! Now we finally have a chance to own our own land!"

An old man burst into tears with excitement, holding his hands tightly together, as if praying that this wish would come true soon.

"Master Xiao is really our savior!"

A young man said with emotion: "As long as I have my own land, I no longer have to work as a horse for those clans!"

The city of Xianyang was in a state of excitement.

This news is like a key, opening the door of hope that has been sealed in people's hearts for a long time.

Both clans and common people are paying close attention to the progress of this struggle, knowing that it will determine their future destiny.

This matter was like a gust of wind, quickly spreading to every corner of Xianyang City, and naturally also reached Qin Chi's ears.

At that time, Qin Chi was reviewing the laws and regulations in the mansion. After hearing this, he couldn't help but put down the slips in his hands, with an unconcealable smile on his face.

"Oh? Xiao He is so resolute?"

Qin Chi murmured to himself, a glimmer of approval flashing in his eyes.

He knew very well how difficult it was to implement land surveying. The clans in those places were so powerful and deep-rooted that even the slightest carelessness could cause an uproar.

However, Xiao He enforced it with thunderous means and did not give those clans any chance to escape. Qin Chi had to admire this courage and determination.

The subordinate officer next to him was also moved when he saw Qin Chi's reaction.

He knew that although Qin Chi and Xiao He were superiors and subordinates, they were both officials in the imperial court and shared the same beliefs and goals in combating clan power and implementing the New Deal.

Now seeing that Qin Chi was so satisfied with Xiao He's actions, he couldn't help but echoed: "Sir, Xiao He's move is indeed very popular. Those clans have controlled the land and power for a long time. Someone should have stood up to break this situation."

Qin Chi nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

He stood up, walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the distant sky outside the window, lost in thought.

He knew that this struggle had just begun, and the final winners would be those who dared to reform and fight.

"Give me the order."

Qin Chi suddenly turned around and said to his subordinates: "I fully support Xiao He's actions and provide necessary help and support. At the same time, I tell him that I am very satisfied with his actions and let him do it without any scruples."

The subordinate officer followed the order and left, Qin Chi's eyes turned to the distance again.
