Feng Ann retreated silently, his eyes filled with depression.

Li Chao held the tea cup and drank the tea leisurely. Feng Ang saw all his dissatisfaction and knew that his heart was on fire. But Li Chao deliberately turned a blind eye, one moment, another moment.

A few years ago, when Feng Ang surrendered, the Tang Dynasty only captured half of the Central Plains, and the four directions were pacified, and Turks were eyeing each other in the north. At this time, Feng Ang and others surrendered to Lingnan, and the court could not seek it. Even if their surrender was conditional, the court agreed happily to maintain the hereditary and separatist situation of the wealthy chiefs in Lingnan.

"Teacher, will this be too much? If Feng rebels, I'm afraid the situation in Lingnan will change again."

After drinking a sip of tea, Li Chao told Chengqian, "We are not afraid of the Feng family's rebellion. If the Feng family dares to rebel, it will be self-destruction. If they rebel, it is actually a good thing for the court."

"Why is it still a good thing?"

"Because they reversed, we became famous and could uproot the largest local forces in Lingnan."

Cheng Qian was surprised to hear the murderous intent in Li Chao's words. He didn't expect that the teacher had just spoken with a smile to Feng Ang, but the murderous intent had been buried in secret.

"Can't you use gentle means?"

"If the Feng family was willing to face the reality, the court would of course make proper arrangements for them. Unfortunately, Feng Ann could not watch us suddenly take away the power in their hands like this. And the court would not miss the current great opportunity and spend a hundred or two years slowly solving the problem in Lingnan."

"Long pain is worse than short pain. The changes in Lingnan are like the pain before birth in a newborn, which is something that must be experienced."

Li Chao did leave some way out for the Feng family and transferred Feng Ang to serve as the governor of Qinzhou. This is an attitude. If Feng Ang is willing to accept it, then although the Feng family will not be hereditary to Gaozhou and other places in the future and cannot become a local emperor, the land and property they have in Lingnan are still theirs. Feng Ang and the Feng family can still be officials, but they don’t think about becoming a local emperor again.

But Li Chao was also sure that Feng Ang would never accept such a result.

How could the dignified King of Nanyue give up the power in his hands? There are few people in the world who can do this, and Feng Ang can't do it either.

While Li Chao was transferring Feng Ang, he had already set up a big net, waiting for Feng Ang to fall into the trap.

"Will Feng Ang really rebell?"

"Everything is possible."

Cheng Qian pondered and asked, "Is the teacher ready to deal with it?"

Li Chao laughed and said, "Of course, if you don't fight an unprepared battle, you should never provoke a battle that you can't end. We took this battle, so I have already had a plan to deal with it. I have left room for the Feng family to choose, and the choice is in his hands. We will send people later, but we have prepared for it."

Feng Ang returned to his residence with a gloomy face.

Li Chao has no longer given him a way out for the Feng family.

He was transferred to the governor of Qinzhou, and Chen Longshu, the enemy of the Feng family, was transferred to the governor of Gaozhou. The county magistrates of all Gaozhou counties and counties were replaced by the imperial court, and another 3,000 troops were stationed. Li Chao wanted to completely deprive the Feng family of control over Gaozhou.

The governor of Qinzhou is just a clumsy lie. He, the governor of Qinzhou, must be like now, trapped in Qinzhou Yacheng all day and can't go anywhere.

It is said that he is the governor, but he is actually Li Chao's prisoner.

After thinking for a long time, Feng Ang thought he could not give in. If he retreated, there would be a cliff behind him, and there would be no foothold of the Feng family in Lingnan.

Never sit and wait for death!

He recruited his son, "Find someone to quietly leave the city and go find your uncle!"

Feng Ang's wife is the Xian family, the largest clan of Liliao in Lingnan. Xian family is also the niece of Feng Ang's grandmother Mrs. Xian. In fact, Feng Ang's mother is also a woman of the Feng family. Since Feng Ang's grandfather, the heads of the Feng family have married the Xian family, the largest Liliao leader in Lingnan.

This is also the way that the Han tyrants in Lingnan can establish themselves in Lingnan, marry into the powerful local Liliang clans, join forces, and gain control of the local area.

"Father, are we going to rebel?"

Feng Ang said coldly, "Looking at the development of the situation, we cannot sit still and wait for death. We must break the deadlock, otherwise there will be no place for the Feng family to stand in Lingnan."

At this point, Feng Ang had not thought of truly rebelling. Feng Xian joined forces to dominate Lingnan, but compared with the court, it was far inferior. Feng Ang hoped to make some moves and force the court to make some concessions. He had no other extravagant hopes now, just wanted to maintain control of Gaozhou, and the Luoya and other states could barely accept it.

On that day, several Feng family members disguised themselves and quietly left the city.

Someone reported to Li Chao immediately.

"Look at them, but don't alert the snake." Li Chao just replied calmly.

Continuing to look at the official document in his hand, Li Chao didn't raise his head and asked Chengqian, "Your Highness thinks, where is Feng Ang sent someone?"

"It should be to inform the Feng clan of Gaozhou."

"No, Feng Ang must have sent someone to find the Xian family. I have seen through Feng Ang, ambitious, but lacked the courage. He dared not to make him really rebellious. This person is looking forward and likes to plot. He must have sent someone to find the Xian family. The Xian family is not weaker than the Feng family, and they are Li people. The Feng family is the leader of Baiyue in the Lingnan region and has a high reputation. If the Feng family comes forward to join forces with Liliao and Gexi, it is really possible to attract some people to create some momentum."

"The Xian family rebelled, but the Feng family will not rebell?"

"The Xian family will only bluff, just wanting to force me to make concessions. However, if the Xian family really dares to raise the flag, I will beg for it. Your Highness, the show is about to begin, so let's wait."

The prince did not doubt Li Chao's look of Jizhu holding him. For a long time, the teacher Li Chao was in his heart. He was truly a person who was close to Zhidu. He said he was not worried, so he definitely didn't have to worry.

"Teacher, what are you looking at?"

Li Chao handed the document in his hand to Chengqian, "It is the latest government order. I will sign this government order. In the future, all parts of Lingnan will open official agricultural tools stores to sell various new steel agricultural tools. In addition, all counties will set up agricultural technology centers and invite agricultural technicians from the Central Plains to guide the people of Lingnan in the Central Plains' most advanced farming and water conservancy technology to help them increase their output."

The climate in Lingnan is most suitable for growing rice, and it can generally be ripened with two ripened with three ripened with some places. The climate here is suitable and the rain is abundant.

But because it is located in Lingnan, it has always been relatively closed and backward, and its farming technology is far inferior to that of the Central Plains.

Not to mention that the Tang Dynasty, which had rapid agricultural technology, cannot compare with the Tang Dynasty, even the Central Plains agricultural technology in the previous Southern and Northern Dynasties has not yet been popular here.

There were no new curved plows, new waterwheels, etc., and many agricultural tools were used in large quantities. In the Tang Dynasty, Liji Steel Factory not only provided steel for the court for military equipment, but also provided steel for the new agricultural tools of the Tang Dynasty.

That is a good steel that can build military ordnance, used to build plows, rakes, hoes, shovels, etc., new agricultural tools and new technologies, and plows, which have greatly increased the yield per mu in the Central Plains. With priority cultivation, fertilization, interplantation and rotation, as well as water conservancy technology, grain output has been averaged.

Nowadays, people in the Central Plains use ploughs made of good steel to plow the land with curved shafts, and a cow can easily plow deeply. In Lingnan, people here also use the plow tools from the Jin Dynasty. The plows only wrapped a little iron sheet, and the plows must be raised with double oxen. The plows are slow and shallow.

The powerful and gentlemen in Lingnan also wanted to use new plows, but Lingnan lacked iron. Ordinary iron materials were treasured by each company, and it was not enough to use them to build iron armor weapons. How could they be used to build agricultural tools in large quantities?

The court was specialized in salt and iron. Li Ji's iron ore factory dug iron ore and smelted into iron and then refined into steel. Then the steel was acquired by the court.

Li Ji's farm tools factory then ordered steel from the court, processed and produced agricultural tools made into iron, and then sold them.

The court still had strict control over steel. The Li family's steel factory could not intercept steel, and it had to be handed over to the court. Both the Li family's agricultural tools factory had to order iron materials from the court.

At the same time, this agricultural tool factory is not something that anyone can do if they want to do. It is not easy to obtain a business license, because it is considered an industry that the court has key supervision, because the agricultural tool factory has the conditions to produce armor and weapons.

In recent years, both Liji Steel Plant and Lijia Farm Tool Factory have developed rapidly. The output of iron and steel is high every year. With the increase in steel output, Liji Farm Tool Factory has also developed rapidly.

Nowadays, the Central Plains are full of shops of Liji Farm Tool Factory, and a large number of new agricultural tools are sold. Good steel and iron are much cheaper than in the past.

Li Ji earned a lot of money by selling farm tools.

Lingnan is a big market, a blank market to be developed. Li Ji can now dump a large number of iron farm tools here, which can be regarded as finding a channel for the growing steel industry to digest production capacity.

By providing steel to the imperial court's military workshops, Li Ji's steel plant production capacity is difficult to increase. Steel farm tools are a major sales channel in the future.

The Li family dumped iron agricultural tools in Lingnan, which was also beneficial to others. Li Ji Agricultural Tools Bank made money by selling agricultural tools. The steel plant could increase production capacity and sales and maintain the development of this important industry.

At the same time, the agricultural production level in Lingnan can also be improved and grain production capacity will be greatly increased.

Even the powerful and powerful chiefs in Lingnan and even the people in Lingnan would benefit a lot and be grateful to the court.

"Are there so many agricultural tools now?" Cheng Qian asked an important question.

Li Chao smiled and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured that the production capacity of the agricultural tools factory is still very large, and it is possible to set up a branch in Lingnan. As long as the court can approve iron, the output is not a problem."

"Does the court have so much iron material?"

"Yes, the production of Li Ji Iron and Steel Plant is now very amazing."
