On the Xijiachi, a famous scenic spot outside Xiangyang City, a green double-decker cruise ship was also a banquet full of guests.

Everyone present included scholars with high crowns and tied hair, famous folk art masters with wide clothes and disheveled clothes, officials with leather hats and hats, merchants with big belly and simple clothes, and even several people with deep eyes, high noses and weak hair and slightly curly hair.

The topic they discussed was also the impact of the clearance incident in the training center and the subsequent aftermath. Because, first, some people pleaded for it and wrote a letter to defend it, believing that this matter was too much, and they were thrown into another book and transferred from the corresponding position, disguised the Daoanan land to promote education.

Then, some people followed the trend and introduced many colleagues, subordinates, Shangguanren, etc., and corresponding various inappropriate remarks and private criticisms. Some people spared no effort to fuel the fire, and they had the intention and dynamics to muddle the water.

As a result, this trend of mutual admonition has not yet been formed in the training center, and its related scribes and students, and soon it was published in the public woodblock and street copy as the governor:

Regarding "encouraging real-name writing to discuss matters, we must not judge the guilt by catching up with the wind and shadow." "Beware of dozens of common methods of ulterior motives that bring public opinion to people with ulterior motives", "The way of benevolence and forgiveness does not mean nourishing the enemy as a disaster." "Behind the essence of promoting the local sages", and other murderous intents pointing to clear list articles, and it seems that a basin of cold water was poured down quickly.

"So, the Grand Commander's attitude is already very clear. Don't think about it anymore..."

"Under the increasingly comprehensive "Taiping Tianmu System", I am afraid that there will be no more places for these land geniuses."

"The Grand Governor's Office clearly wanted to learn from the pre-Qin farming and war stories of military merits and land and governments who were cultivated together; and most of the land under this rule had to be restricted to rent and pay for the poor to live a way to support themselves."

"If anyone who is ungrateful and wants to forcefully disobey and secretly fight on this, he will probably die without a place to die."

"Since the world and pattern are different from the past, we must change according to the times and give up the past path of building a family with the land of the world. Otherwise, one day we will violate the taboos and taboos of the Grand Commander, and everything will be over..."

"Actually, the world is so big. Is there no way out except to compete with the common people for food from some land production? This is not necessarily the case."

"Now under the rule of our Wunan envoy, there are fruit wood, tea trees, mining factories, cargo circulation, fish and salt sea ships, which is not a place where we can make a difference... Why bother to seize the prospects of the fields?"

"Not to mention following the Governor's Office to trade overseas with large ships, endless resources in the foreign lands, and the population's profits are incalculable... Why bother fighting in this hungry Middle-earth battle, fighting to the death..."

"Then what virtues do we have? We gave up the foundation of our past familiarity and rashly devoted ourselves to these businesses."

At this time, someone finally came back to the point and asked with some restraint and prudentity.

"I think there is a ready opportunity right now, and I can encourage you all..."

Liu Zhiqian, the representative of the Lingwai Tea Merchants Association, who had been watching coldly but did not speak, was slow and timely at this moment.

"It is reported that the Governor's Office plans to follow the example of the two ridges and issue a batch of Taiping public bonds in Jinghu. The Zhuya Lei pays salt and stone honey from various places, and the tea cakes are guaranteed, and the five-year period is two and a half years of annual interest will be delivered and exchanged for one round;"

"If you don't want to take advantage of the situation or are eager to make a change, you can use this to withdraw the corresponding warranty property at the initial market price in the supply and marketing place of the Governor's Office, or you can give priority to purchasing other specialized items from the Governor's Office."

Hearing this sentence, everyone present couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice. You should know that the salt fields, sugarcane fields and tea mountains of the two ridges have always been large-scale projects that Taiping Army seeks to benefit both internal and external, and can actually participate in and undertake the operations in disguise by purchasing public debts.

However, I couldn't help but feel a little scared and worried, just because I was just a disguised method of the governor using this trick to make a clever name, extortion or forcefully seize the local forces represented by them.

"I also heard that the Governor's Office is interested in opening up several new trade routes, and intends to raise people from the public who are willing to work together."

At this time, Wang Poxian, another great businessman from the north, also spoke endlessly.

"I dare to ask this guy, have you ever really called this matter... You must know that if you are in trouble today, there are turmoil everywhere, bandits, riots and riots are rampant, and business travelers are mostly harmed."

However, someone soon raised doubts.

"You must know that after many years of working, has the Governor's Office ever been aimless? There are two types of trade routes that I want to open this time."

Wang Poxian smiled disapprovingly.

"One is to go through land, go through Qianzhong, connect to Nanzhao, Piao Kingdom and even the ancient Nanzhong (tea horse) road in the east of Tianzhu. The second is to go to sea to sail to head north to Lai, turn to Silla, and the ancient sea road in Japan.."

"For this purpose, we set up the Nanzhong and Tonghai Second Society to recruit people's manpower and material resources to share the capital and benefit. Can you do it?"

Just after this feast of windy banquet was dark and the night was dark, it was able to disperse with the crowd full of thoughts; the scenes presented by different people and the words and deeds of everyone also appeared in the documents of the Xiangyang City Society Supervision Department.

One of the merchants who went to the banquet with a trembling belly, Du Xuan also walked through some streets where the curfew was implemented under the cover of night, and came to an inconspicuous house outside Xiangcheng. Then he looked at a resolute old man with a sharp look and elegant temperament and said respectfully.

"It's really a bit of twists and turns and unexpected."

It was only after the Lord Du Zong sighed secretly after hearing what he saw at the banquet.

"I decided to enshrine the ancestral hall. In addition to a little sacrifice to the fields, I spread all the land deeds to each family and set up my own business. The remaining ancestral property has also been reduced one after another, and I have invested it in buying public debts."

"Sect Master, why is this so?"

Du Xuan, who was sweating profusely, couldn't help but be surprised.

"Because, except for those who died in the army or in turmoil, all those who could escape had already escaped; the remaining tribesmen who were attached to the countryside, I also wanted to find a chance and a way out for them...

"You must know that many people in my Du clan are scattered. Although there are some people who are self-disciplined, how come they are less able to control themselves, and even use the black sheep in their homes."

"Instead of taking the opportunity to make things happen without causing trouble, and eventually letting people copy the clan property and buy people's hearts; it would be better to take the initiative to disperse the entire family of the clan's family members, so that they can only benefit me from the Du family by establishing a family."

"At least after the separation, even if the Taiping thief... the Governor's Office has a handle and a guilty relationship, it will not be able to settle and punish the company in detail. These small families with only a small amount of land are there."

"Then we buy some Taiping bonds and put them into production in Tonghai and Nanzhong, and after we are bound and implicated in the industry of the Governor's Office. If we take the initiative to contribute, we can at least exchange for a slightly tolerant and decent treatment for us..."

"If the Governor's Office has long-term plans and plans, it will definitely not be able to treat me immediately after being offered. This will cause the corresponding participants to feel the thoughts of the people involved, and make them suspicious of each other. "

"In addition, you send someone, don't you, go to Jingmen to tell Du (Hong) Ah Liu in person... I have already removed him from the genealogy."

"Zong-chan, why do you do this?...After all, is he a branch of Du's family?"

Du Xuan shouted again and said in confusion

"Of course it is to clear the relationship with our family and to make him feel at ease in the army to seek his career and future. Perhaps the family name and family of Du family in Xiangcheng in the future will be relied on his unfavorable family, the son of the other branch, to be promoted to the rush and elevation of the family..."

However, Du Zongchang shook his head helplessly.

The Du family of Xiangcheng where he was born was once a unique and prominent aristocratic family on the land of Jingchu. He was known as the "Brief Writings" and had the reputation of "Half-City Du" in Xiangyang.

Du Shenyan, who was the first of the five-character rules in the early Tang Dynasty, and the first of the four friends in the articles, was also the poet Du Fu and Du Zimei who were born in the family of "confucian officials". Some even wandered outside the territory during the Battle of Danros, traveled to the three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa, and finally returned from the sea and wrote the of Anxi officials Du Huan.

(That's right, although he is also a brother who hates his life, Du Fu is much better than Li Bai who is from outside the territory. Therefore, even if he is not likable and criticizes current problems, he was also under the help of his family's origins and social circles. He was the leader of the Right Guard and Cao, and the left-handed subordinate of the disciple, even if he was demoted, he was the army of Jingzhao Gongcai and the Sigong of Huazhou. In his later years, he was able to prosecutor the Ministry of Works of the School and gave him a lieutenant to the death.

Therefore, Li Bai's first half of his life was the inspirational template for the protagonist who counterattacked by the real loser. As a descendant of Anxi immigrants, he worked as a raider and killed people after traveling out of his home. He was also taught the aisle by Gao Tianshi of Ziji Palace in Qizhou/Jinan. He was famous for his works that traveled all the way. Two granddaughters of the former prime minister's family (fan girls/female fans) took the initiative to bring dowry to the door. Finally, he impressed the famous female princess Yuzhen, and Wenda started the performance at the peak of his life stage before Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Yang Taizhen.)

Another branch of the Du family in Xiangcheng, known as Jingzhao, Xiangyang and Puyang, is even more awesome; it has been known as "Wei Du in the south of the city, and the Wu of Tianchi", since the Eastern Han Dynasty, and is also written in the "Clan Chronicle" of this dynasty.

Since its founding, Du Yan (prime minister), Du Ruhui (prime minister), Du Ji (Jiangsu in Dongchuan, Jiannan), Du Ya (Shangshi Minister of Personnel, Huaixi Jiedu), Du You (Prime minister), Du Yu (Little Du Mu, Jinshi), Du Mu (famous writer, poet, military theorist, calligrapher and painter) and other famous officials, and great masters.

In that dynasty, there were even members of the Secretariat, Hanlin scholar Du Rangneng and Du Honghui, who served as the ban, and maintained that their families were not fallen. In contrast, the Du family, which was based in the south, was much inferior.

All the glory and dignity that I once had changed and the world has changed from the middle Tang Dynasty to the wind and rain; the former Du of the city died and fled, and the remaining tribesmen are no longer as beautiful as the past.

The so-called beautiful home of articles and the huge people's livelihood in the peaceful and prosperous times cannot protect the tribe members' experience of driving people to kill pigs and dogs in this chaotic world; even a mere country rich man could be overwhelmed with the majesty of being handsome and arrogant.

So when all the people who could escape from the family escaped, he, the elder who was escaping the world and devoted himself to studying, was elected as the chief of the remnant Du clan according to the order of generations and resources, and had to bear the fate of his hometown relatives.

In fact, he took over a family business with a lot of holes and almost paralyzed, and even the rent of the land outside the city might not be able to be collected in time; and Du Xuan, the fat merchant in front of him, is one of the few people he can use and trust now.
