Sun Quan was rich in Jiangdong. If he had not fought with Liu Bei and Cao Pi for two consecutive battles, he might not have taken Sun Lang's little money seriously.

However, after these two major battles, the treasury of Wu State was empty. Not only did the military supplies be in short supply, but Sun Quan himself also greatly reduced his expenses, and he was often short of it.

When Sun Quan celebrates his victory, he will inevitably reward his heroes, because the treasury cannot afford money, so Sun Quan can only use his savings.

Sun Quan could tolerate it by eating it simpler, but he couldn't afford it, so he couldn't afford it.

He spared Sun Lang's life, but naturally he had to accept Sun Lang's money with a smile.

This money is a timely help for Sun Quan.

But Sun Quan would not be grateful to Sun Lang for this. Instead, he was very jealous of Sun Lang's wealth.

Sun Lang saw that all his savings of more than ten years were taken away by Sun Quan, and his blood was dripping. He was thinking about how to earn the money back in the future and let him hide it well.

Who knew that Sun Quan was also thinking about Sun Lang's financial path, and he did not stop and finally came up with a solution once and for all, which was to give lifelong punishment for crimes according to the clan regulations, which was equivalent to surveillance of residence.

After raising Sun Lang in captivity, he didn't have to be punished by the national law, and his money was not subject to the state treasury. Sun Quan could just accept it with a smile.

When Sun Quan saw that his subordinates gave Sun Lang a list of property, he was shocked to have such a huge amount of money.

Sun Quan did not want to lose this wealth path, so he attributed all the business under his younger brother's name to his Sun Quan's personal name.

For Sun Lang's former subordinates, those imperial merchants, which were enough to spend in the palace, he no longer had to look at Zhang Zhao's expression and went to the treasury to ask for money.

As soon as Sun Lang got into trouble, the Ma family's shares were wasted, and the Ma family's investment immediately shrank by half. Ma Su couldn't help but be in a hurry.

Of course, Ma Su has been in Jiangdong for several months, and the Junjie Jiangdong he made friends with was not Sun Lang alone.

Ma Su accompanied Liu Bei to marry in Jiangdong. Although his relationship was not restricted, the heroes of the major families who had won the age of Ma Su stayed away from Ma Su, which made Ma Su's idea of ​​setting up chess pieces in Jiangdong fail.

The main reason is the gap in strength. Although Liu Bei settled down in Jingzhou at that time, Jiangling borrowed it, which was no different from Sun Quan's vassal.

Although he is the emperor's uncle, those families that put interests first will definitely not easily surrender to him.

But Cao Cao was different. He took Emperor Xian of Han to Xuchang and occupied the title of great righteousness, and his strength was far beyond Sun Quan's.

At that time, when Cao Cao summoned Hua Xin to Xuchang to serve in the name of Emperor Xian of Han, Hua Xin took the initiative to surrender.

Sun Quan didn't want Hua Xin to leave, but Hua Xin wanted to climb up, so he said to Sun Quan:

"You can make friendship with Cao Gong because you can obey the emperor's order, but this friendship is not strong. Wouldn't it be better to let me go there to deepen the friendship between the two? Today you keep me to raise a useless thing, which is not a good idea."

After hearing this, Sun Quan felt it was reasonable, so he agreed to send Hua Xin to Xuchang.

After Hua Xin entered Xuchang, he was very prosperous under Cao Cao's command and had long forgotten his former lord Gongsun Quan.

After Cao Pi usurped the throne, he became Cao Pi's prime minister, and he was inferior to one person and above ten thousand people!

Not only did he not mention Sun Quan's concern, he also deliberately tried to use Jiangdong's connections to help Cao Pi collect Jiangdong.

Hua Xin's behavior is similar to those rich second generations who immigrated to the United States under the name of studying abroad.

With Liu Bei's strength at that time, he did not even occupy half of Jingzhou, which was naturally not enough to attract the children of Jiangdong's aristocratic families to come and join.

However, Jiangdong has many aristocratic families, and the grievances and grudges of major aristocratic families are not a solid piece of cake.

Some people are in power, some are frustrated. Many people are dissatisfied with Sun Quan.

The economic activities at that time were very different from those now, and the aristocratic families still use land as their foundation.

Having fertile land means having food and being able to raise private soldiers.

Therefore, land and food are the lifeblood of aristocratic families. If they were not facing the disaster of extermination, they would not have abandoned their foundation and risked their return to other forces.

Liu Bei and Ma Su were in Jiangdong for several months, and they used no means to poach the enemy, but because they did not have enough benefits, they did not have any effect.

On the other hand, Cao Cao was far less powerful than Yuan Shao at that time, but on the eve of the Battle of Guandu, people with talent like Jia Xu advised Zhang Xiu to take the initiative to compete with each other.

Although Cao Cao's position was only Sikong, because Emperor Xian of Han was in his hands, there were many families who took the initiative to defect to him.

Guo Jia has been in Jiangdong for a long time, and the effect of recruiting aristocratic families is very obvious. To date, there are still many aristocratic families with both ends.

No matter what, there are still some buried talents in Jiangdong.

These people are hard to leave their hometowns, and in order to gain Sun Quan's value, they spared no effort to promote themselves everywhere in Jiangdong.

Among them, there was a minor official named Ji Yan who resigned from his official position and traveled.

Ji Yan arrived in Jianye City and came to visit Sun Lang, hoping to find a way to advance.

Ji Yan, whose courtesy name is Zixiu, was from Wujun.

He was famous when he was young, but because he had once opposed the Sun family, no one in the family could become an official.

Zhu Zhi was the prefect of Wu County. In order to appease Ji's family, he once hired Ji Yan, who was famous, to be a county official.

Ji's family is not a prominent family in Wujun. Although Ji Yan is very talented, she has been a county official for several years and has not been promoted.

At that time, many officials who were not satisfied with their positions could choose to resign and study abroad.

It is said that traveling can increase your knowledge, but in fact it is to gain reputation among the people and seek more ideal official positions.

Bu Zhi of that year believed that he could not use his talents to act as Sun Quan's master, so he resolutely resigned from his official position and traveled.

He traveled with Zhuge Jin and others and became famous. Later, he was appointed as the county magistrate of Haiyan and served as the only one. From then on, he made great efforts and gained the recognition of Sun Quan, and rose to prominence and became a rank-in chief official.

Ji Yan was naturally unwilling to be a minor official and resigned from his official position to travel, hoping to find a backer while gaining fame.

As Sun Quan's younger brother, Sun Lang got along with Ma Su after his relationship with him, and he was a good person to be a good person after his business cooperation.

It is easy to do things with money. Sun Lang treated the scholars who came to visit very well. He came here to see him and found many scholars who asked Sun Lang to compete with the autumn wind.

Ji Yan is a rare talent, so he naturally heard Sun Lang's reputation.

Although the Ji family is not a small family in Wujun, because Ji Yan's father and brother were in the wrong team, they followed Liu Yao, Xu Gong and others one after another. When Sun Ce entered Jiangdong, they worked hard to resist Sun Ce.

After those aristocratic families were defeated, Sun Ce did not hold them accountable for their rebellion and evil in order to gain the support of the Jiangdong family, and the Jiangdong family also returned to their hearts.
