Chapter 5 Mobilizing the Powerful

At that time, only hundreds of acres of land were left at home, but they encountered severe droughts and locusts for many years. Not only did they have any grains to collect. At least the food collected was not enough to pay taxes, and the wages of tenants were paid.

In anger, Chen Shouye sold all the fields. With the reputation of a prodigal son, he followed the horse team to the outside world, and the wind and rain for more than ten years were blown.

Before he was forty, he had already rebuilt tens of millions of fertile land, all of which were good land by the river. Even shops everywhere had more than a dozen.

He even controls a huge horse team and monopolizes business dealings with several Mongolian tribes.

Now, he is less than fifty years old, and he is ill because of the years of wind and frost outside the border and early injuries. He is about to finish his game!

In his drowsy dream, he dreamed that he was with the horse team when he was a teenager, but he encountered heavy snow and snow.

In that early tremendous wind and snow, the entire horse team was almost wiped out. At that time, Chen Shouye hid behind a big stone and kept praying to the gods and Buddhas all over the sky...

Chen Shouye could no longer tell which was the truth and which was the memory. But at this time, the sky was flying all over the sky, causing the drowsy blizzard to stop suddenly.

A golden beam of light shot down and was covering Chen Shouye's body, warming his almost frozen body, which was very comfortable.

"I am the Great Ghost Emperor!"

Then Chen Shouye suddenly woke up and sat up suddenly. But he realized that it was just a dream just now.

However, he was surprised to find that he had sat up! His body, which had gradually lost consciousness, has now recovered.

Before Chen Shouye could shout out, he saw that the door was pushed open. His large and small wives, his sons and daughters rushed up: "Master..."

"father……"

"How could you be fine? We just saw a golden light in the room outside, and we thought it was on fire..."

Today's Ghost Emperor Palace is particularly lively, with carriages and sedans almost filling up the place. All of these are famous and well-known figures in Guanzhong...

Although Guanzhong is broken and cannot be richer than other places, the wealthy and wealthy families in Guanzhong are not necessarily less than other places.

Chen Shouye jumped off a horse and greeted people casually. He had a big face and was familiar with people. He could meet acquaintances everywhere, and everyone who saw him seemed to have seen a ghost.

Didn’t it mean that Chen Shouye is very sick and is about to die? Why do he look lively and can even ride a horse?

Chen Shouye laughed loudly: "It's all up to the blessing of the Ghost Emperor. Originally, I was going to see the King of Hell. Thanks to the Ghost Emperor, I saw that I should not be defeated, so I saved me!"

Everyone who heard this looked at each other side! It was the Ghost Emperor's Great Lord who appeared again! It seems that the hard days of this natural disaster are coming to an end!

Although Shaanxi is poor, there are many wealthy families. Especially this place is like Shanxi, close to Mongolia. There are also many wealthy merchants who secretly do business with the Mongolians!

Just like Chen Shouye, a developed tycoon who relied on smuggling trade with the Mongolians, not only had countless money, but also had a fierce horse team, which were even horse thieves on the grassland. Some Mongolian tribes were afraid of the force of three points.

Running business on the grassland and doing such trade. Without strong force, he had been swallowed up long ago.

However, it is still very rare to do business like Chen Shouye. Only Shanxi merchants can compare with them, who are really rich and powerful.

But even Chen Shouye was amazed when he came to the Ghost Emperor Palace!

This has been drought in Shaanxi for many years, and people are living in poverty. Especially in northern Shaanxi, there is even more drought.

However, now, surrounded by green water, there are vibrant crop fields and grasslands everywhere, where does it look like a little drought?

It is almost the same as the Hetao, which is known as the Jiangnan area. These places are now all the fields of the Ghost Emperor Palace.

The entire military fortress had been ordered by the emperor and was given all to the Ghost Emperor Palace, becoming the farmland of the Ghost Emperor Palace.

Now, these wealthy families have come outside the Ghost Emperor Palace. Looking at the long-standing miracle, in the drought in the entire north, there is a continuous stream of clear water outside the Ghost Emperor Palace, turning into a river and nourishing these tens of thousands of acres of land.

These places were originally all the fields of military households, but were sent by the emperor to issue an imperial edict and all became the fields of the Ghost Emperor Palace. This time, the Ghost Emperor Palace is really rich!

If it is someone else's land, these guys who are bold enough for money might find ways to take advantage of it.

But this is the land of the Ghost Emperor. Who is tired of living and trying to seize the land of the gods? That is really the eighteenth floor of the hell that can't clean up those black-hearted idiots.

In short, when you see such a scene now, these powerful households can only be amazed. They are envious and jealous, but they dare not hate them. Who doesn’t know the effectiveness of the Ghost Emperor?

Although I don’t know what big thing the Ghost Emperor sent to call them all this time, no one dared not give him face.

Even like Zhang Baiwan, he was carried directly by someone, but he was so sick that he couldn't afford to rest as he was bedridden, and he was also carried to this Ghost Emperor Palace.

Many people watched this guy with a pale face and thin skin, and he was dying. He was carried on the couch by several servants, but not long after entering the Ghost Emperor Palace, he walked out with a rosy complexion.

This scene shocked these wealthy families and their chins fell off. Many people who believed in ghosts and gods just knelt on the ground and kowtowed for a long time.

The powerful people in these places were honestly and properly walked into the Ghost Emperor Palace and burned incense and kowtow to the Ghost Emperor.

But at this moment, a golden light shot out from the statue and shot on a temple Zhu standing next to him.

Seeing that the temple Zhu's momentum suddenly changed, he shouted: "I am the Great Ghost Emperor here!"

"The Great Lord has appeared..."

"The Great Lord has appeared..."

Looking at this, it seems that the Ghost Emperor is really attached to the temple Zhu!

Suddenly, all these rebellious powerful and wealthy households suddenly knelt down on the ground and looked over devoutly.

"The national affairs are not stable, and evil dragons are everywhere." The temple Zhu shouted expressionlessly: "I am determined to save the people of the world and let the people enjoy a peaceful and prosperous era. Now the evil dragon is about to enter the pass. This is the time when the Tao is eliminating the demons. I hope you will contribute money and work hard to overcome the difficulties together. I will remember your achievements!"

As he said that, another golden light flashed and returned to the statue. The temple Zhu collapsed softly on the ground.

No one expected that the Ghost Emperor called them for such a thing, and for a while, they were a little unstoppable.

At this time, Chen Shouye was the first to shout that his life was saved by the Great Emperor of Ghost. At this time, there was no such thing as not being expressed: "The Great Lord said it is reasonable. Those treacherous soldiers are all locusts. The most shameful thing is that we rich families are. If we kill back, we will not be able to lose the benefits. We must not let these locusts enter the pass!"

He waved his arms and immediately responded, and everyone shouted: "No, not bad. Now even the thief is dead, what is the only thing left of Li Guo's son?"

"That's right, just by looking at the rebels everywhere, I don't know how to establish an official system and treat the literati well. I know that these rebels cannot become a big climate! It's just a bandit..."

"These thieves have almost all the wealthy families in the Central Plains. If the thieves are allowed to return to Guanzhong, we will all end up like those in the Central Plains..."

They originally wanted to get these things, but there was no enough weight to preside over them.

The only one who is worthy of it is Sun Chuanting, but in order to support his soldiers, Sun has done something to garrison and scraped the land too hard, and has offended all the wealthy families in Guanzhong.

Now, the Ghost Emperor takes the lead. These wealthy families who were originally in a mess are all excited.

It is not unaware that the wealthy families in Kaifeng, Luoyang, Xiangyang and other places ended up in what ways.

These trespassers do not engage in production, do not restore local order, establish systems and collect taxes to form a complete management system.

It is just relying on snatching wealth and food from wealthy families to support their troops. No matter how you look at it, they are bandit-like style and do not look like they can achieve great things!

To be honest, if Li Chuang had the atmosphere of Zhu Yuanzhang at that time, these wealthy families would have been rushing to join the Chuang Army.

Maybe there is no need to do it by the crusade army on their own. They can find a way to tie Sun Chuanting up and send it to the crusade army.

In short, now in the face of a huge crisis, the Ghost Emperor spoke again, and these wealthy families immediately changed their style.

When Sun Chuanting was in charge of Guanzhong, he tried every means to borrow some money and food from these guys, and these guys were hard to give up.

But I didn't expect that this time, I would be very enthusiastic if I had the money and the strength.

In the final analysis, although these guys are rich, they also have insights.

The future of the Ming Dynasty is unclear, and it is getting worse every day, so these guys are naturally not very obedient.

But the Ghost Emperor is so effective, it is up to them. How could they be ungrateful?

Chen Shouye shouted: "Don't worry, my Chen Family Horse Team will definitely deliver the first batch of food and supplies to Tongguan as quickly as possible. I will definitely let Supervisor Sun block the evil dragon..."

Everyone applauded, but each did not put all their hopes on Sun Chuanting. They had already started to continue, and they each had to build a group training armed force.

There is no shortage of horses in this place in Shaanxi, and these wealthy families do not lack food. If you are truly willing to invest a lot of money, at most you can get a village group of thousands of people with just one or two thousand people, and even cavalry can make up one or two thousand.
