Jia Xu and Xun You hand in hand.

"Taxes are a long-term benefit and are most useful in times of peace.

But in the era of war, the princes from all walks of life fought in chaos.

A powerful force may be destroyed tomorrow.

under these circumstances.

We need to make ourselves stronger as quickly as possible, so as to ensure safety.

Instead of slowly developing through taxes. "

Sun Ce said solemnly.

Both Xun You and Jia Xu are thoughtful.

"So I decide.

Invite all the officials of the great families and powerful families in Lujiang.

If they voluntarily hand over most of the fertile land, money and population.

I will reward them accordingly in the future.

If they don't want to, kill them.

Anyway, they are not good birds. They bully men and women, and they do a lot of things in Yurou Township.

What do you guys think of my plan? "

Sun Ce said.

"The combination of the great aristocratic families in Lujiang is a force that cannot be ignored.

If you attack them, I'm afraid it will cause a big earthquake in Lujiang.

And as soon as this happened.

No family in the world will rely on you anymore.

After all, they will only support those who protect the interests of the family. "

Xun You looked a little worried.

"Indeed.

The most powerful people in the world today are not the royal family, nor the princes of various walks of life, but the aristocratic families. "

Jia Xu nodded:

"The most powerful family is the Yuan family.

Its four generations and three generations.

Since the world was in chaos, the biggest force in the north is Yuan Shao, and the south is Yuan Shu.

If it weren't for them, they would not be convinced of each other and would not unite.

I'm afraid the world has long belonged to the Yuan family.

My lord, you should be more cautious when dealing with matters in the family. "

"Why don't we just increase taxes.

In this way, even if the aristocratic family is dissatisfied, they will not resist too fiercely. "

Sun Ce couldn't help pondering what his two counselors said.

The power of the aristocratic family is indeed great.

But if they are dealt with step by step through taxation and other means.

I am afraid that it will take several years to stabilize Lujiang River.

He doesn't have that much patience.

Sun Ce thought over and over again and finally made up his mind, and said in a deep voice:

"Let's follow the original plan, so that it can be done once and for all.

Accumulate a lot of wealth in a short period of time, and can also start to attack other counties in Jiangdong.

Don't be afraid of the big families and powerful families.

It looks like they are powerful, but they are actually paper tigers.

Look at the Liu family.

They used to be extremely proud of their Lujiang No. [-] family and looked down on me.

Aren't you obedient now?

Kill the principals of the great families in Lujiang.

Support another bastard who has been neglected.

I believe they can't turn the tide.

As for the world's major aristocratic families.

I don't believe they are monolithic.

As long as we divide and draw, I believe there will always be someone willing to work for me! "

Chapter 062: Sun Ce Invites the Lujiang Family Again

Although Xun You and Jia Xu felt that something was wrong.

But Sun Ce was determined to get rid of the great families in Lujiang.

They also only agree.

the next day.

Sun Ce invited the patriarchs of all major families in Lujiang to the banquet.

The patriarchs didn't know that Sun Ce was going to attack them.

Everyone was very happy to be invited, and they all came one by one.

Hope to have a relationship with him.

Sun Ce ate and drank well with the heads of the great families.

In the middle of it he suddenly said:

"I have been in Lujiang for about half a year, should the rules be changed?"

The scene was instantly cold.

Everyone didn't speak anymore, they just looked at Sun Ce.

They are all smart people.

How could he not know what Sun Ce's words meant.

After Sun Ce conquered the Lujiang River.

In order to be stable, the rules of Lu Kang's era were not changed, and too many benefits were lost.

Now that he has gained a firm foothold in Lujiang, he naturally wants to plan more benefits.

a time.

Everyone's eyes flickered.

Sun Ce is the prefect and has more than 2 soldiers and horses.

Thinking about it, it would definitely not work if he didn't give benefits when he first came.

So how much benefit should be given to him is a question worth thinking about.

quite a while.

A patriarch of an aristocratic family stood up, bowed his hands to Sun Ce and said with a smile:

"The prefect's words are reasonable, and the Zhang family is willing to present you with a hundred acres of fertile land as a token of appreciation.

I also hope that the prefect will not be disgusted. "

"Hundred acres of fertile land?

If I remember correctly, the Zhang family has tens of thousands of mu of fertile land.

Just give me a hundred acres? "

Sun Ce squinted at the family patriarch.

"Although the villain has tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, he also has a lot of family members. He has various expenses, and there is not much left in a year."

The head of the Zhang family argued strongly.

"Hmph, do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? How dare you fool me like this!"

Sun Ce suddenly snorted coldly.

A pair of eyes stared straight at the Patriarch of the Zhang family like electricity, revealing a trace of chill.

The temperature in the main hall has dropped a lot.

"The little man dare not."

Being stared at by Sun Ce, the Zhang family felt cold sweat dripping down their backs, and hurriedly knelt down.

"It seems that the prefect has a lot of appetite."

The patriarchs of the surrounding aristocratic families frowned secretly.

"I don't know how much you want, Lord Prefect?"

An old man stood up and asked Sun Ce, clasping his hands.

"Half, as long as you hand over half of your respective family wealth, that's fine."

Sun Ce said lightly.
