Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

  Chapter 126 How did you make so much money again?

   "Quick, move faster."

   "Pack up the cloth and food first, and throw away all the messy things."

   "Go and prepare all the carriages. We will leave immediately after the goods are loaded on the carriages."

  ······

  Hanzhong County, Qunshan County, in the mansion of the Lu family, countless servants moved back and forth to move one item after another onto the carriage.

   Lu Boli on the side commanded anxiously, a fine layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.

   And just when the entire Lu family's property was loaded into the carriage, and the team was about to leave from the side door, suddenly, there was only a loud 'boom'.

  The gate of the Lu family suddenly collapsed, and amidst the dust, at least dozens of people were seen rushing into the Lu residence, and at the end of the crowd, two figures, one large and one small, slowly approached Lu Boli.

  After seeing the true faces of these two people, Lu Boli, who was already sweating profusely, suddenly turned pale.

   "Patriarch Lu, in such a hurry today, where are you planning to go!"

  The two people who appeared in front of Lu Boli were Xiong Daxiong Er. Xiong Da held a piece of silk in one hand, gently dispersed the surrounding dust, looked indifferently at Lu Boli in front of him, and said.

   "It turned out to be Mr. Xiong Da and Mr. Xiong Er. To be honest, a distant elder will soon have his 60th birthday. Isn't this rushing to pay birthday wishes!"

   "Happy Birthday?"

Xiong Da glanced at the twenty or so carriages behind Lu Boli, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "It seems that the status of the patriarch Lu is really extraordinary! Just to celebrate his birthday, he actually has to ride the whole Lu Is it all the family property of the clan?"

   Facing Xiong Da's gaze, more and more beads of sweat oozed from Lu Boli's forehead.

finally.

   At the moment when Lu Boli's mind was about to collapse, he heard a sudden roar: "Do it!"

  The voice sounded.

  I saw two black shadows jumping out from both sides of Xiong Da at the same time, each holding a crescent-like sharp blade, attacking and killing Xiong Da at an astonishing speed.

  However, facing such an attack, Xiong Da didn't even look at it until the sharp blade approached three feet in front of him, and Xiong Er, who had been standing behind Xiong Da, suddenly moved.

  No fancy tricks.

  Xiong Er, who was more than two meters tall, raised his arms, and punched the two attackers with a fist as big as a casserole.

  The punch has not arrived.

  The strong punching wind has already caused the expressions of the two attackers to change drastically.

   But at this time, even if the two wanted to retreat, it was too late.

   "Boom!"

   "Boom!"

  Accompanied by two boxing sounds that sounded almost at the same time, in just an instant, the black shadow that attacked like a leopard just now flew back at a faster speed.

  After landing.

  The two attackers fell heavily to the ground like rags and sacks. A huge depression appeared in each of their chests, and blood flowed out of their seven orifices like money.

  In an instant, the two of them were out of breath.

   "So weak!"

  Withdrawing his fist, Xiong Er scratched his head and couldn't help muttering.

  Seeing that the guard he had hired with a high salary was beaten to death by the monster opposite with just one punch, Lu Boli was so frightened that his legs went limp, and his eyes were quickly filled with despair.

  Xiong Da gave him a cold look, and then spit out a word: "Kill!"

  ······

   Three days later.

The news that the Lu family, the Jing family, the Sun family, the third of the five old nobles in Hanzhong County, and the other sixty-three noble families, large and small, were all ransacked and exterminated, quickly triggered a big war in the whole Hanzhong. earthquake.

  The rest of the landowners and nobles who survived, including the "Yan Clan", all closed their doors tightly after learning the news, for fear that they would be implicated due to some misunderstanding.

  This massacre can be called a repeat of the 'South County tragedy'.

  After this slaughter.

  The landlords and nobles in the entire Hanzhong County not only truly realized the power of Mo Jun, but also felt his cruelty.

   Not long ago.

When many landlords and aristocrats in Hanzhong County learned that Lord Changwen failed to sue Mojun and was deprived of the "salt rights" by him, many people had already guessed that Mojun might be against those who colluded with Changwen Lord in Hanzhong County. Retaliate.

  That's why Lu Boli and others hurriedly packed their luggage and planned to escape from Hanzhong overnight.

  But no one expected that Mo Jun's revenge would come so quickly and be so vicious.

  If the time of information transmission is removed, there is not even half a day between the time Mo Jun's subordinates receive the news and the slaughter of all the major landlords and nobles.

   One time.

  All the surviving landlords and nobles in Hanzhong County fell into a state of panic.

  However, the culprit of all this is that at this moment, looking at the piles of gold and silver jewelry, real estate title deeds, pearls and emeralds, and antique vases in front of him... feels a headache.

   "How did you make so much money again?"

  Mr. Mo pinched the center of his brows lightly, feeling quite a headache.

   After the money reaches a certain level, it is really a number. For the current Mo Jun, if the gold and silver jewels and real gold and silver in front of him were not spent, they would be no different from a pile of broken copper and iron.

   Chen Jinghui, who was standing beside Mo Jun, heard his muttering, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently a few times.

  Listen.

   Is this still a human language?

  What do you mean by ‘making so much money again? ’, Could it be that you made a lot of money before?

oh!

   This person seems to have made a lot of money in the past.

   That's all right.

   "Xiong Da, you first pick some antique jewelry, pearls and emeralds from the inside, and then put them in the chamber of commerce's warehouse to serve as the foundation of the chamber of commerce."

"yes!"

   Xiong Da nodded in response.

"Chen Junshou, I will allocate another 50,000 gold coins to you, and you will hire some craftsmen to build more waterwheels, curved plows, and rice-threshing machines. With the extra money, I will buy a few more cattle. I lease it to commoners in Hanzhong County. It doesn't matter if the rent is cheaper."

   "Thank you, Mr. Shengping, sir."

  Hearing Mo Jun's words, Chen Jinghui was immediately refreshed, and hurriedly leaned over to salute.

no doubt.

   This time, it is one of the benefits Mo Jun distributes to the people of Hanzhong County.

  Actually, Mo Jun himself doesn’t know how to spend so much money.

   But anyway.

  In the era of small-scale peasant economy, there is always something wrong with a variety of grains.

  Mr. Mo then said: "In addition, I have already found the collaborators for the construction of the mountain and the road. After a while, you can go and handover with them, and then you can start to issue a notice to recruit workers in Hanzhong County."

  Hearing this, Chen Jinghui was stunned again.

  He had also heard some news about "opening mountains and building roads" from Mo Jun before. To be honest, Chen Jinghui thought that Mo Jun was just joking.

  After all, it is such a huge project to build a road from Qinling to Bashu.

   Such a road.

  Even if tens of thousands of people start working at the same time, it is estimated that it will take several years to see results.

  And the amount of money invested in it is an astronomical figure. Even with Mo Jun's wealth, it is impossible to support such a road.

  But he didn't expect that Mo Jun not only came for real, but also found a collaborator in such a short time.

   This time.

  Even Chen Jinghui had to accept the ability of this Lord Shengping.

   "The lower official assures that there will be no mistakes in this matter. If there is any accident, Chen Jing will come to see you later."

   This is the first time that Chen Jinghui has made such a statement in front of Mo Jun, which is comparable to a 'military order'.

   No wonder he was so excited.

   After all, as the sheriff of Hanzhong County, Chen Jinghui is also very clear about how beneficial it will be to Hanzhong County once there is a road that can pass through the Qinling Mountains and Bashu.

   In the past, when Chen Jinghui was still a good official, he had tried to develop Hanzhong and improve the quality of life of local civilians.

   But at that time.

   On the one hand, there are obstacles from the old local aristocratic forces.

   On the one hand, the existence of the Qinling Mountains greatly limits the possibility of Hanzhong to "seek help" from outside.

  Now, the old aristocratic forces that were domineering and greedy in the past have all been killed by Mo Jun, an even more domineering and unreasonable lord, and they are no longer a threat.

   Now the only place that restricts the development of Hanzhong is the Qinling Mountains.

  However, Mr. Mo didn't care about the "Military Order" issued by Chen Jinghui, because the plan of opening mountains and building roads was the result of the cooperation between Mr. Mo and Yingzheng, the Meng clan, and the Wang clan.

  In this case, the possibility of accidents to this plan is extremely small.

  What's more, even if there is an accident.

   With Chen Jing returning his head, he is not qualified to take on this responsibility at all.

  ·····

   "As for the remaining property title deeds and those grains, let's keep them for now!"

  For the remaining assets, Mo Jun thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out a reasonable way to use them, so he had to keep them first and make plans later.

  After simply arranging part of the property obtained from the ransacking of the house, everyone in the Mo Mansion quickly fell into various busy schedules according to the plan formulated by Mo Jun.

   Not a few days later.

  The money, manpower, and material resources sent by Yingzheng, the Wang clan, and the Meng clan to open mountains and build roads were in place.

   After receiving the message.

  Chen Jinghui immediately stepped forward to hand over the three parties, and then began to issue recruitment notices throughout Hanzhong County.

   Compare this time.

  Whether it was the previous construction of [Xinmo Mansion], [Xiongidemo Chamber of Commerce Headquarters], [Farms], or digging [Reservoirs] in various places, it can only be regarded as small trouble.

  Because in order to quickly build the road between Qinling and Hanzhong this time, Chen Jinghuiguang was the first batch of recruiters, and directly recruited 10,000 people.

  This unprecedented scale of recruitment caused the whole of Hanzhong to boil in an instant.

  ······

  ······

at the same time.

  Just when Mo Jun's Hanzhong County was busy with the matter of 'opening mountains and building roads', there was a lot of excitement.

the other side.

   Meng Ao, who had prepared for many days, finally led an army of 200,000 to set off.
