Chapter 34 [Why does the family hate people]

Why is it said that the aristocratic family occupied the property of the previous dynasty?

Zhao Ning, who came from a top wealthy family, could understand this matter, but the soldiers present certainly didn't understand it. So Gu Tianya felt that he should explain it to everyone, so as not to misunderstand that he wanted to encourage the Detachment of Women to do evil.

He slowly looked at everyone and said loudly: "Since ancient times, throughout the dynasties, aristocratic families have controlled the inheritance of knowledge, mastered paper, pen and tongue. Through these means, they have continued to develop and grow. In the process of inheritance and growth, in order to ensure

For the children of the family to study and practice calligraphy, they need to spend countless resources, so they must continue to earn resources."

He paused for a moment, and then continued: "There is a saying that goes well, making a penny a day is better than living in vain. No matter how rich the family is, they dare not let their family just go out.

, if they want to ensure that the family continues, they have to constantly open up paths to wealth. So, brothers, let me test you all now. If you become the helmsman of a family, which method in the world do you think is most likely to make people violent?

rich?"

This question is not so much a test for everyone, as it is actually a question that he is giving guidance and tips to the soldiers.

It's a pity that he overestimated the quality of the soldiers of the Detachment of Women.

Since ancient times, there have been many generous and tragic people in the land of Yanzhao. If we think of this in a positive light, then it can be understood that the land of Yanzhao is more likely to produce heroes.

But if we analyze the actual situation, it actually means that the people in Yanzhao have a relatively tough character.

Throughout the ages, this area has seen the largest number of bandits and giants.

Many of the soldiers of the Detachment of Women were from mountain bandits. Although they have become soldiers now, they still have banditry in their hearts.

Gu Tianya actually asked them which way is the easiest way to get rich?

hehe!

This simply aroused everyone's excitement.

I heard a soldier laughing loudly and saying with excitement: "The only way to relieve worries is to get rich suddenly. If you want to get rich suddenly, open up mountains and rob roads. Hahahaha, the brothers of the Gu family are very good. I didn't expect you to be such a refined young boy."

, turned out to be a fellow-minded person, hahahaha, not bad, not bad, really good!”

Before the soldier finished speaking, another man came over with a big smile. His face was also full of excitement and his eyes were shining. He grabbed Gu Tianya's arm and laughed wildly: "Come on, come on, we two brothers will have a good time together in the future."

Dear brother, my name is Yan Jiu, and the catchphrase I used to say is that I opened this mountain... Brother Gu, tell me quickly, do you want us to rob you? This method can make people rich.

"

Even Niu Laosi, who looked honest and honest, put his big head over at this time and said naively: "It's great to rob on the road..."

Gu Tianya's face kept twitching.

Next to him, Zhao Ning seemed to have even her ears turned red with embarrassment. The female God of War was afraid of being noticed by Gu Tianya, so she quietly took a few steps to the side and hid like an ostrich, feeling that her whole face was burning.

It was hard for her to imagine how shocked Gu Tianya would be if her identity was revealed one day. I am afraid that after that time, she would no longer be a beautiful princess in his eyes, but rather, the most beautiful princess in the Northern Land of the Tang Dynasty.

The tough female bandit leader.

"This group of thugs, go back and deal with them one by one..." Zhao Ning's teeth itched with hatred, and he glanced at these soldiers with vicious eyes.

Especially that guy named Yan Qi, he actually instigated my Tianya family to learn how to open this mountain? I will write this down first, and I will definitely let you know later why I can become your leader.

The female war goddess hid in the corner and secretly fumed, having written down all the soldiers in her small notebook.

On the contrary, Gu Tianya seemed to have figured out something at this time. He suddenly smiled and waved his hands to the soldiers and said: "The answers given by brothers just now are barely close to the answer. The means by which aristocratic families gather wealth is, to put it bluntly, robbing.

, but their robbing methods are more ruthless..."

He paused for a moment, his tone became slightly faster, and he said again: "As we just said, if a family wants to ensure continuous inheritance, it must ensure that the family's wealth continues. Where does the wealth in the world come from?

I believe that all money comes from the soil. For example, when merchants do business, the goods they sell come from the soil. Mulberry, hemp, copper, and iron are all assets born from the soil... What is soil? The soil is the land under our feet, so

The most important way for aristocratic families to ensure continuous wealth is to continuously acquire land." (Author's voiceover: In ancient times, it was a land economy)

He paused again and continued: "The aristocratic family's thirst for land is simply a kind of madness deep in their bones. If they were in the prosperous times of their lives, they would use money and grain to buy it, although there would also be some

It's a shameful means, but after all, they have to maintain a high-sounding bottom line. If it comes to troubled times, their methods will be much more ruthless..."

"You mean robbing?" Yan Jiu, the soldier, couldn't help but ask. This guy still wanted to robbing.

Fortunately, Gu Tianya already knew the nature of these people, so naturally he would not be too harsh on them. Instead, he nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed a robbery!"

His tone suddenly became low, and he said slowly: "Why do I say that the aristocratic family has occupied the property of the previous dynasty? It's because this is what I have seen and heard with my own eyes over the years. For example, in Miyun County, ten miles away, there is a village called Miyun

The Sun family has been seizing land since the chaos in the late Sui Dynasty. Hebei Province has been suffering from wars for many years, and a certain village often suffers from wars. The people are unable to resist the wars, and they may be slaughtered in just one night. Every day

At this time, the land became ownerless property... However, just wait until the next day, these ownerless lands suddenly became owners again, and the owners of these lands were all the Miyun Sun family...

…”

These words clearly have a very deep implication.

Although the soldiers present were not very knowledgeable, not all of them were fools. Some had heard Gu Tianya's hint and couldn't help but frown and said in deep thought: "The village was massacred overnight, and the land became ownerless property.

However, it only takes one night for the land to become the property of the Sun family. Isn’t this true? Isn’t this true?”

Suddenly, many people suddenly understood and blurted out subconsciously: "Doesn't this mean that the Sun family is taking advantage of the military disaster to plunder the land?"

Gu Tianya took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said: "It's not just the military disaster, it's them who are instigating it. As long as the Miyun Sun family likes the land of any village, they will immediately encourage the soldiers and bandits to attack each other, and then take advantage of the chaos.

To eat, to occupy acres and acres of land."

He suddenly stopped here, looked at Zhao Ning who was hiding aside, and said softly: "You may have been curious in your heart, why our village doesn't have its own land, even a little cemetery for burial.

You need to humbly go to the Sun family to buy it... Now, I will tell you the answer, the reason is very simple, our village wants to survive!"

How smart Zhao Ning is, she immediately understood after hearing this, her pretty face was thoughtful, and she also said softly: "Giving up the land? Keeping the village?"

Gu Tianya nodded heavily.

His eyes subconsciously turned to his mother.

The widows in the village also looked at Gu Tianya's mother.

Zhao Ning's heart moved slightly, and she couldn't help but look over, and said in surprise: "Could it be your idea?"

"It's me!" Aunt Gu nodded slowly and sighed: "Gujia Village is not only close to the river, but also has a lake not far to the southeast. It relies on mountains and rivers on the back, but there is an official road in front. The village is in the middle, and this area

The land is really too fertile. Before I left, my husband told me that the land is fertile and abundant, which is a blessing in prosperous times, but in troubled times, it is a disaster..."

The old woman paused for a moment, then breathed again: "Those years were really scary. I saw several surrounding villages being massacred, and many acquaintances lost their lives overnight. I

I knew that our village would probably suffer the same fate, so I discussed it with a few elders in the village, and together we approached the Sun family in Miyun and sold the land at a low price, one penny per acre."

Selling land cheaply, one penny per acre!

This is almost indistinguishable from giving it away for free.

However, the exchange is that Gujiacun can survive in troubled times.

At this time, Gu Tianya took over the conversation and said in a deep voice: "The situation in our village is actually very common in the entire Hebei Province. Even not only in Hebei Province, but also in the entire Central Plains, I'm afraid it is the same, because it happens everywhere in the world.

Aristocratic families, aristocratic families will definitely plunder land crazily in times of trouble. If you want to plunder land, the best way is to massacre the village."

He paused for a moment, then continued: "Maybe in addition to massacring villages, they will occasionally spend a small amount of money to buy the land of those poor people who cannot survive. Even if they spend money, it will be very little, almost as much as

It's like taking it by force, forcing the poor to sell."

Zhao Ning looked thoughtful and said softly: "Just like the story you told me not long ago, the woman in the next village sold herself for fifty coins. She could obviously sell it for two or three hundred coins.

However, in order to buy food for the children, the price can only be reduced..."

Gu Tianya nodded and said: "When the aristocratic family bought land, they used the same method. The poor could no longer survive, so they had to sell the land."

He glanced at Zhao Ning, then looked at the soldiers present, and said in a deep voice: "Instigating military disasters, slaughtering villages and grabbing land, taking advantage of the troubled times, squeezing the poor, everything the family did was to obtain land... Facts

It proves that they did it, but this is a kind of occupation, a bloody occupation. These lands originally had owners. Even if the Tang Dynasty was established, they should belong to the people. However, in the end, the aristocratic family was full. Every sip they drank

It’s all the blood of the poor.”

He paused for a moment, and suddenly his tone became firm, and he said loudly: "What we have to do now is to collect this debt for the poor. Since the aristocratic families have become fat by drinking the blood of the people, then we will scrape off their flesh and get the proceeds.

Money is used to hire people. There is reincarnation in the way of heaven, and everything in the world will eventually be rewarded. They owe the people the cause, and naturally they need to repay the people the cause. The reason why I have said so much to you tonight is just to tell you a truth.

, we may use forceful means, and we may be unreasonable in the process, but our original intention of doing this is clear, because we are not trying to gain wealth for ourselves..."

"Okay!" The soldiers shouted in unison, and everyone's blood surged, as if there was an indescribable heat in their chests, which was almost unstoppable and could burst out.

They used to be bandits, but were later recruited as soldiers by the Detachment of Women. Unfortunately, they had been fighting for half their lives without knowing why. Only at this moment tonight did they suddenly feel that their lives had meaning.

Soldiers, in times of trouble, attack.

What if it was a prosperous time?

Baoya!

Keeping a place safe and protecting the people is to protect the home and the country. This is the original intention of soldiers.

At that time, in the winter of the sixth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, in a remote village in Hebei Province, a young man tried to guide others for the first time, telling a group of bandit-turned-soldiers about the morality of his family and country.

The road in life is endless, and those who lead it should be the first.

This should be the true meaning of being an official.
