Chapter 74 0070 [Dividing the spoils]

 Zhu Guoxiang took the Bai family's passenger boat and arrived at the wild dock of Xiabai Village in less than ten minutes.

"Archers are suppressing thieves, civilian ships are not allowed to approach!" an archer who stayed on the ship yelled.

Zhu Guoxiang announced his family name: "My name is Zhu Guoxiang, and I am Ju Ming's father. You will go and report immediately!"

Dutou’s biological father?

The archers believed it instantly because both Zhu Ming and Zhu Guoxiang had weird accents.

The father and son have traveled through time for more than three months, trying their best to learn how the locals speak. They think they are very similar to each other, but to others, they sound like completely foreigners.

The archers invited Zhu Guoxiang ashore and ran quickly to report the news.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhu Ming came to the shore in person. He did not call Dad or Dean Zhu, but said: "Dad, why are you here?"

Zhu Guoxiang pulled his son to a deserted place and asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Didn't you say we were going to suppress bandits? Why did you kill the little white member?"

"I gave the order to the county magistrate, and the county government secretary also died..."

Ju Ming picked out the key points and recounted what happened recently.

"You, a temporary archer, dare to make such a big noise? When you get an official position one day, you will be able to go to heaven!" Zhu Guoxiang was a little unbelievable.

At the same time, he gained a new understanding of his son's ability to endure hardships.

In fact, there had been signs for a long time. When they first traveled through time, on the night they met the Tian brothers, they felt something was wrong in the riverside village. Zhu Guoxiang's first thought was to hide and run away immediately if something went wrong. However, Ju Ming's approach was to always be prepared.

Set fire to the village, create chaos and then run away.

The thinking patterns of father and son are completely incompatible.

In other words, Ju Ming's weird brain circuit is somewhat different from that of normal people.

Zhu Ming said confidently: "Who told the government to let me do Dutou? Since I have become Dutou, I must seize the opportunity. After passing this village, there is no such shop, so I must risk my life and give it a try."

Zhu Guoxiang was extremely speechless after hearing this. This bastard belongs to Husky. He knows what could happen if he lets go.

If he were around, he would never allow his son to take risks.

But I have done it, and there is no point in saying more.

"We have established a huge stall, have you figured out how to finish it?" Zhu Guoxiang asked.

"Don't worry, Dean Zhu, I'm not the kind of person who cares about his head and body." Zhu Ming said with a playful smile.

The more heartless Zhu Ming is, the more worried Zhu Guoxiang becomes. He always feels that his son is unreliable.

In fact, Ju Ming has become very restrained, and now he only looks dishonest in front of his father.

Zhu Guoxiang asked: "How can you annex Heifeng Village? If Xiangzhi County regrets and does not give Heifeng Village to you, what should you do?"

"Of course it's a matter of course, don't give him a chance to default on his debt," Zhu Ming expressed his thoughts. "After the capture of Heifeng Stronghold, the rebel leaders were either killed or captured and all were sent to the government. Zhang Guangdao was in Heifeng Stronghold.

He still has some prestige, let him choose some small bosses, and I will personally promote a group of small bosses and give them enough land. Use the land to control the small bosses, and then use the small bosses to control the surrounding farmers. At that time, even if the archer team is disbanded, the black

Fengzhai is already mine. If Xiang Zhixian wants to go back on his word, he has to lead his own troops to take it!"

Zhu Guoxiang asked again: "What should we do if those little bosses disobey?"

Ju Ming said: "If the bandits can work together, I won't even dare to fight. Since they can't work together, there is room for maneuver. What's more, those who really have the guts to disobey will have been escorted to the government long ago. The remaining ones are gone.

No matter how much influence I have, they have to rely on me to avoid being escorted to the government. I allocate land to them, and they have to listen to me. As for the farmers around the village, I will also allocate a small number of land to try to win the loyalty of as many people as possible.

.”

Zhu Guoxiang asked: "Does Heifeng Village have so much land to divide?"

Zhu Ming smiled and said: "I asked Zhang Guangdao that most of the land around the mountain village has been divided up by the bandit leaders. If you kill the bandit leaders, the land will be available. I am not as stupid as Xiang Zhixian, who wants all the benefits.

Monopoly. My goal is the whole world. Why are I staring at those lands in a mountain nest? As long as I can control the tea mountains."

"That's right." Zhu Guoxiang nodded and said.

After dealing with villagers for a long time, Zhu Guoxiang still doesn't understand what? Ancient farmers' desire for land was far more fanatical than modern farmers.

Once Ju Ming presides over the distribution of land, he will immediately win the hearts of the people.

It is equivalent to Ju Ming entering a company, getting rid of the original major shareholders, and then presiding over the equity restructuring. He will first take the majority share, then increase the shareholdings to small shareholders, and also issue a few shares to ordinary employees. From top to bottom, everyone gets benefits.

, the new chairman is stable.

Zhu Ming said: "At that time, we will also ask Dean Zhu for help, teach them scientific farming, and bring in corn and sweet potatoes. Everyone has benefited, and they are naturally willing to follow us. There is still so much land downstream, and farmers can be organized to go there.

By clearing up wasteland and abandoned tea mountains, as long as we figure out how to fry tea, we can reduce the number of tea pickers and the abandoned tea mountains can be restored."

At this moment, Zhu Guoxiang was not only persuaded by his son, but he was also a little excited: "If I can completely control it, I can double the cultivated land area within five years!"

Ju Ming smiled and gave a thumbs up: "Dean Zhu is awesome!"

Zhu Guoxiang reminded: "You have offended both the county magistrate and the government officials. After suppressing the bandits, you cannot return to the county seat to avoid being shot in the dark."

Zhu Ming nodded and said: "I understand. At that time, I will say that I was injured while suppressing thieves. The injury is too serious and I can't move around. I will just hide in Heifeng Village and be a coward. When I completely master Heifeng Village, even if I go to the county government in a big way.

, they don’t dare to do anything to me. After all, I am not a bandit, but I have the strength of a bandit.”

Zhu Guoxiang thought carefully and said: "It's not that troublesome. You only need to hide in Heifeng Village for a while. I will come forward and establish a good relationship with Mr. Bai. Since Bai Erlang controls the subordinates, we can just make peace with the Bai family. The rest

There is no need to worry about the magistrate."

Ju Ming asked: "Is there anything going on in Shangbai Village these days?"

Zhu Guoxiang said: "It's still the same. Bai Sanlang went to Yangzhou, and he asked me to tell you that it was a pity that I didn't say goodbye in person."

"Since everything is fine, do you want to go to the threshing floor? I've got all those archers in order." Zhu Ming wanted to show off in front of his father.

But Zhu Guoxiang didn't give any face at all: "No, it's getting dark, and I have to go back for dinner."

Zhu Ming sighed: "Oh, I still agree with that sentence. Where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather. Dean Zhu, your biological father has almost become a stepfather. You don't care about your son at all."

"What a mess," Zhu Guoxiang was too lazy to talk nonsense and just reminded, "are these ships loaded with food? I didn't even see a few soldiers. Be careful of bandits attacking at night and burning your food and grass."

Ju Ming explained: "I did it on purpose. The mountain stronghold is not easy to attack by force. I have to try my best to lure them down the mountain."

"As long as you know what's going on," Zhu Guoxiang warned, "when you capture the stronghold, send someone to report to me immediately so that I can go and talk to Mr. Bai."

"You can go find him now," Zhu Ming took out a letter and said confidently, "When he reads the letter, all grudges can be resolved."

Zhu Guoxiang carried the letter back to the ship, feeling mixed all the way. His son's plan of a snake swallowing an elephant made him always worried, but also looking forward to it.

Who doesn’t want to do great things?

After landing in Shangbai Village, Zhu Guoxiang went straight to the Bai family mansion and soon saw Mr. Bai outside.

"Mr. Zhu, please take a seat!" Mr. Bai greeted him warmly.

Zhu Guoxiang sat down with his hands folded and said straight to the point: "I just went to Xiabai Village. Bai Zongmin is dead and all his property has been seized by the officers and soldiers."

"I've also heard that this guy colludes with bandits and will be killed sooner or later." Of course Lao Bai, the official, knew what was going on. It was he who secretly contacted Official Lu and asked the magistrate to kill him together.

The only thing that was surprising was that Old Bai had never expected that Ju Ming could control those archers.

Zhu Guoxiang handed the letter over: "This is written by Quanzi, please come and read it."

I read the outreach letter carefully, the content is very direct.

It means dividing the spoils and asking the county magistrate for money, Zhu Ming wants Heifeng Village, and Lao Bai Yuanwai wants Xiabai Village. Everyone benefits and everyone is happy.

By the way, he also explained that he was not from Xiang County Magistrate, so he asked Old Bai to burn the letter on the spot after reading it.

Putting the letter close to the oil lamp and burning it to ashes little by little, the old man couldn't help but sigh: "Young Master is really capable of great things."

Zhu Guoxiang said: "Dogs are naughty and don't know how high the sky is."

"Haha, this is a humble statement." Old Bai said with a smile.

He was very satisfied with Ju Ming's profit distribution plan. From the beginning to the end, he never thought about getting involved in Heifeng Village. He just wanted to take the opportunity to swallow up the property of the novice member.

The man let his servants support him and personally escorted Zhu Guoxiang out of the main gate.

Then he called Bai Dalang over and ordered: "Take out the money at home and ship it to Xiabai Village immediately. We will buy the land and shops tonight!"

Bai Dalang was unaware of the whole process. After careful questioning, he was so excited that he was trembling when he spoke.

From now on, there will be no Shangbai Village or Lower Bai Village, no old Bai Yuanwai, and no young Bai Yuanwai. There is only one Bai Village, and only one Bai Yuanwai, and everything here belongs to his Bai family!

Old member Bai...well, let's call him Bai Zongwang from now on.

Bai Zongwang thought about it and was afraid that his son would not be able to handle it well, so he decided to take action himself and have him put on the boat.

Seeing the servant overseeing the army in Xiangzhi County, Bai Zongwang said: "It will be a long night and many dreams, so let's settle the deal tonight. I brought all the money and only bought the land, tea mountains and shops."

"I think so too." Servant Supervisor Jun said with a smile.

The two parties bargained for two full hours before finally completing the deal.

It was useless to take so many fixed assets from the magistrate because it was too far away from the county seat, so we had to sell them all to Bai Zongwang at a low price. Even a bunch of usury notes were packaged and priced at 20 guan, and they were sold one share at a time.

Bai Zongwang returned home with a pile of deeds, and said to his son on the way: "Tomorrow, we will gather the villagers in Bai Village, take out their loan receipts, and burn them on the spot. The money they owe Bai Zongmin will not have to be repaid in the future."

Bai Chongwen was a little reluctant: "Dad, this is a lot of money!"

Bai Zongwang scolded: "The village belongs to my family, why are we still looking at those IOUs? The top priority is to calm people's hearts as soon as possible and let the villagers know that we are different from Bai Zongmin."

"yes."

Bai Chongwen had no choice but to agree, but he still felt uncomfortable because he valued money very seriously.

What's more, in order to buy those properties, the Bai family almost spent all their cash, and now they only have more than a thousand dollars left in the family.

Watching his son leave, Bai Zongwang sat alone in the room, with a cheerful smile finally showing on his face.

The upper and lower Bai Villages were integrated into one, and the family's land directly doubled. He finally reached the pinnacle of his life!
