Chapter 1881 Unprecedented sense of powerlessness
Wu Qiliang was in a hurry and discovered a huge new crisis for the family on the way out. Li Jiannan and his group were still on the dock, looking at each other.
Looking at the two horses running slower and slower in front of him, Tang Huailan, an elite son of the Tang family from Xiuyan Mansion, spoke, "Even Dayue City, which is hundreds or thousands of miles away from Xuecheng, the top local wealthy families have already planned to evacuate their hometown. Do we still need to go to Xuecheng?"
Their group represented the wealthy families in Xiuyan Mansion to visit Xuecheng to explore the wind, and wanted to confirm the authenticity of the Li Yuanshu incident.
Now, is it necessary to continue setting sail?
Li Jiannan smiled bitterly, "Brother Tang, why not stay in Dayue City for two more days? If you can ask for more information here, there is really no need to go to Xue City."
After their fleet arrived at Dayue City, they drove into the dock, just wanting to do some supplies and rest here, and then continue Yang Fan and go to Xuecheng along the coast.
The island where Yunzhou is located does not have well-connected water transportation channels such as Shangwangyue Lake and Xianghe in Xiuyanzhou. The fastest efficiency is to continue to be transported by sea.
But Li Jiannan really felt that there was no need to go to Xuecheng again. Stop and see if the local wealthy families were really selling houses and shops, and truly transferring various possessions to confirm the authenticity of Xuecheng.
What you said about Li Yuanshu is causing a lot of controversy throughout Yunzhou. As long as Li Yuanshu comes, like the Wu family manor where Wu Qiliang is located, the shops will be confiscated and rented to ordinary people at a low price. Then why can they still sell houses and shops now?
Of course, it can be sold. After Li Yuanshu calls over and confiscates the real estate, he rents it to, and how much rent it will be arranged in a unified manner. If you buy it at a low price now, it will be your own luxury manor.
Ordinary small handicraftsmen will definitely not be able to afford it. Even if the Wu family and the likes are selling off the property price, the small handicraftsmen's families cannot afford it. However, in a city, there are middle-income people, such as those who worked for the Wu family and reached the level of shop managers, even if they are not corrupt, they rely on their own high salaries and save some money.
Or if there are technical talents such as carpenters and blacksmiths in a city, the grassroots must be the most full. The group with the best skills can only rely on craftsmanship to save a certain amount of money and become middle-income people. In the era when artillery ships are rampant, a first-class artillery casting master can easily save a lot of money in the family business.
In addition, there are manors like Wu family covering an area of thousands of square meters, with several entry and exit, one yard next to another, and one large yard is equipped with several small yards.
For middle-income families, even if they can’t afford the whole, they can join forces with more than a dozen more families and make up money to share the same amount.
This kind of person has no evil deeds and makes a fortune by his own level. He is a little rich man, and the property he bought normally will not be confiscated even if the Li family comes.
This is based on examples. For example, Li Yuanshu took over Xuecheng City and only went to the three counties under Xuecheng's rule over the past week. In that week, the top wealthy families in the three counties had already heard the news and ran away. The manor was sold to middle-level earners in the county town, and they were sold at a high price.
A large mansion that can be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver is built with a grand layout and the most exquisite use. It is sold for hundreds of taels after vomiting blood. A group of middle-income families gathered together and bought it together. More than a dozen families lived in the same manor, which were very spacious.
When the Li family killed him, they also recognized the other party's land deed.
After all, the Li family just wants to make the grassroots rich and live a good life. Those families who rely on their own abilities to live a middle-income income have saved money and bought a big house. Why don’t they agree with it? The same is true for the shops.
Since there are such examples in the three counties under Xuecheng, such as Dayuecheng, where Wu Qiliang is located, and other gentry families, they can delay time. They would rather sell blood and sell some of their property and take it away.
Nonsense, they don’t sell it now. When the Li family comes, they will be confiscated for free. Now they can sell hundreds of taels, hundreds of taels, hundreds of taels, hundreds of taels of ancestral houses, hundreds of thousands of taels, the most prosperous shops, restaurants, etc. in the city’s commercial center, and some more hundreds of thousands of taels. Ships, ships, shipbuilding factories, fertile fields for growing grains, and all real estate can be considered a worthwhile fortune.
Of course, if possible, they would never want to give up a lot of their ancestral property like this. They just couldn't withstand the fairy legs like Li Yuanshu, so they had to do it.
Tang Huailan sighed helplessly, "I inform more people to get off the boat and go to the city to find an inn to rest."
……………………
After a while, the people of Xiuyan Mansion had just settled in the best inn in Dayue City. Before they could wash away the dusty look on their bodies, Li Jiannan couldn't wait to pull the family and the main things gathered together.
"Brothers, something big happened!" Li Jiannan grabbed the wine glass and quenched his thirst. He said bitterly, "The news just came, Wu Qiliang's house is located in the Wu family. After selling 400% of the family property, the first fleets planned to set sail, go to Qufu to avoid disaster first, or wait and see."
"But when it comes to an end, I find that the servants, sailors, etc. are unwilling to retreat with the Wu family."
"If there were no servants and servants to provide them with force, let alone the pirates on the road attacked, even if they arrived in Qufu, there were only a group of old masters, how could they protect the gold, silver and jewelry that could be taken away at any time?"
"Can you protect it for a while, and then you can protect it for another lifetime?"
The wealth is touching. Children hold money in the downtown area, and there will be only one fate. If you are cheated and cheated, what if the Wu family is a member of the gentry? The gentry, when they start with their peers, they will still eat people and not spit out their bones.
The top gentry in Xiuyan Prefecture is not just counting on the rebellion of the people, and the landlords of the middle and lower ranks of counties and towns were beaten to death and lost all their family business, so that they could not speak out?
If the Wu family loses its protection power, a rich man from the capital will enter the capital with a huge amount of cash and wealth? It would be strange if he is not eaten up.
Even if the gentry of Lu State may still feel a little uneasy, or if the rabbit dies and foxes are sad, what about the big Shang Dynasty? No matter how the gentry of Lu State bullies and exploits the civilian class, they cannot hide them. In fact, it is the fact that the gentry of Lu State is a dish that is mentioned by the big Shang Dynasty.
Tang Huailan was breathing in an air conditioner when he heard this, "How dare you do this?! Those slaves actually disrespect the head of the family's order? This..."
This is seeking death. The problem is that once all the slaves gather together and disobey your orders, you will find that they are not able to cause any big storm.
If Li Yuanshu had not taken root in Xuecheng, would the servants and servants here in Dayuecheng dare not obey orders? Even if they did not obey orders together and undermine the local gentry and wealthy clans, other places would immediately appear to suppress the rebellion and eliminate the rebellion here.
But Li Yuanshu's banner floated in Xuecheng. If it didn't fall for a day, no one would worry about the trivial matters here.
