For Confucians, the addition of popularity has many benefits. The speed of cultivation and recovery will be very fast at this stage, especially when the popularity is high enough in one's own territory, like Chu Nan, he uses it every day and every night.
He can instantly return to his peak state more than ten or twenty times.
But everything in this world is borrowed and repaid. Since you have received the support of the people, you naturally have to repay your wishes. It's okay to have an official position. Even if there are public grievances in the end, there will naturally be a court to bear the public grievances for you. But once you become an official
If it is gone, then we have to bear the public grievances ourselves.
Why do the rich and famous people in the world hate Chu Nan so much?
Chu Nan moved not only their land, but also their popularity.
After all, a family with more than 100,000 acres of arable land is entry-level. With so much land, it cannot support tens of thousands of tenant farmers, and all tenant farmers are recruited through legal means. After all, if a natural or man-made disaster occurs, ordinary people cannot survive.
It is normal to have to sell your land, or to be willing to become a tenant farmer if you cannot bear the taxes.
Although it is harmful to the country, for these tenant farmers, it is a blessing to survive, and this popularity will naturally come with it, but at the same time it will inevitably lead to public resentment, because the current income is equivalent to other people's money for selling their bodies. These public complaints are usually
With the support of popular support, it can naturally be offset. However, with the new policy in Xuzhou, the land has returned to the government office, and the popular support has gone to the government office. Naturally, the only thing left for this gentry here is public resentment.
It was great to be popular in the past, but now it is so painful to have public grievances. The speed of cultivation and recovery of Haoran Qi will be seriously delayed. The more public grievances, the slower the practice and the slower the recovery. There may even be cases like Qiao Rui who just cast it.
Public dissatisfaction spilled out.
Moreover, this kind of thing cannot be cleaned up by external force, and can only be paid back slowly by oneself, or Chu Nan, as the ruler, is willing to help them to get through this disaster, give them an official position, and use the luck of the court to offset the grievances of the people.
At the same time, no new public grievances can arise.
Now it is naturally impossible for Qiao Rui to ask Chu Nan to help him, so he can only slowly spend his time on his own. This is why Chu Nan is not worried about him running away. Liu Ye can run away at any time. He has no worries here, and there is no resentment among the people.
It does not rely on Confucian ability, but Qiao Rui cannot escape. If he does not repay his debt clearly, and if he escapes, there will be no possibility of eliminating the public resentment.
Get rid of it wherever it was born. Even if you gain new popularity elsewhere, the public resentment here has taken root in you. When the time comes, the court officials will not be able to leave, and you must come back to eliminate the public resentment.
Of course, the two women can run away on their own, and Chu Nan will never care. With such a temper, it is best to leave. Next time they meet, just kill them directly.
The matter with the Qiao sisters has come to an end for the time being. It takes time to change people's hearts. Chu Nan can't just hang around two women all day long. He has a lot to do.
Spring plowing requires a large amount of luck to strengthen the seeds. Before spring begins, Chu Nan must accumulate enough luck. In addition, the garrison everywhere must be on alert as soon as possible. At the same time, Chu Nan also sent people to Jiangdong to inquire to see if there is anyone crossing the river.
Opportunity, he has always been concerned about the Jiangdong rear area.
It's a pity that if Lu Bu's main army dares to run south, Cao Cao's troops will probably come up from Xuzhou immediately, so for now, they can only be greedy for Jiangdong.
The future is very bright and has countless possibilities, but we still have to be prepared for the present.
"You also learned these things from Gongtai Confucian?" Liu Ye looked at Chu Nan's plan for the two counties. Everything else was okay, but what he discussed with him was some modifications to farm tools, which were not very complicated.
The demand for mechanical skills is almost zero, but it has doubled the efficiency of today's farming tools. The finished product has been released. Liu Ye finds it a bit incredible. The great Confucian still teaches this?
"I thought about it. When I was running a business, I thought that if the plow could be improved, the manpower required would be reduced. It's just that I'm not good at it. Now that I call you Brother Dao Ziyang, I can finally use all my thoughts." Chu.
Nan laughed.
"With these three things, combined with the seeds harvested four times a year and the earth dragons cultivated by the emperor, the grain produced in the Yangtze and Huaihe River areas in a year is enough to supply the entire Xuzhou army and civilians. Wen Houchao
My son-in-law has really good eyesight!" Liu Ye felt that Chu Nan's ability was a bit unbelievable.
Apart from anything else, it is absolutely impossible for Lu Bu's army to be short of food now. This is very unsolvable in a war. Even if a quick victory cannot be won, as long as Lu Bu drags on, other princes may be dragged down more and more. But on Lu Bu's side,
The more we drag on, the more food and grass we get.
Lu Bu doesn't even need to win the battle. As long as he can reach a stalemate with his opponent, Lu Bu can basically guarantee a complete victory.
"I want to know more now, how to govern the world after it is settled?" Chu Nan looked at the Quyuanli at hand, but he was thinking about the problems in the future, because the larger the place he was in charge of, the more complicated Chu Nan found it.
He is unable to do what he wants. He used to be able to manage Xiapi, but now he has to manage Jiujiang and Lujiang together, and he already feels a little strenuous.
If this goes further and manages one state or even several states in the future, the current approach will definitely not work. It will exhaust myself to death. I have tried my best to delegate power, but there are still many things to do.
In addition to the incompetence of his subordinates, Pei Yuanshao, Wei Yan, and Huang Zhong left countless unfinished business for him, and asked him to help wipe his ass. Chu Nan felt that the system he had set should still have room for streamlining, but efficiency could be guaranteed and fault tolerance could be guaranteed.
The error rate is extremely low. If you want to increase the error tolerance rate, you will become very busy.
"The talents you have shown so far are enough to govern a state." Liu Ye took a serious look at Chu Nan. This person is not said to be brilliant, but he is definitely not bad, but he is too humble, and...
A bit lazy, since he followed Chu Nan, he almost handed over most of the work to Liu Ye.
As for the remaining half...it's because Liu Ye's time has been squeezed out by him and he has to do it himself.
It seems that there are many things to do, but under Chu Nan's governance, the spring plowing has not yet begun, but Chu Nan's control over the two counties of Jiujiang and Lujiang is definitely beyond that of any previous governor or governor.
"Brother Ziyang is a man of great talent. Even if it is just a lie, it shows that I have some real abilities. If I am demoted to a lower level, I will have no problem in governing a county." Chu Nan said with a smile.
Flattery?
Liu Ye looked at Chu Nan with an unkind look and sneered: "It seems that in the eyes of the envoy, I am just a flatterer, that's all. In that case..."
"Farewell! What you said without meaning, Brother Ziyang is my guest, how can he be a flatterer?" Chu Nan was startled, and quickly stopped Liu Ye, looked at him sincerely and said: "Brother Ziyang must be
You heard me wrong, I never said that."
Liu Ye ignored him and looked at Qu Yuuli, frowning slightly.
"What's wrong?" Chu Nan looked at Liu Ye doubtfully.
"This thing still has some flaws." Liu Ye frowned and thought.
"I haven't seen it yet. Where is the flaw?" Chu Nan looked at Qu Yuanli. There was nothing wrong with this thing.
"The plow body is not symmetrical on the left and right." After Liu Ye finished speaking, he polished it for a long time until the curved shaft plow was symmetrical on the left and right, and then nodded with satisfaction.
No difference?
Chu Nan frowned and looked at it for a moment, but he didn't see any changes in this Qu Yuanli. However, looking at it as a child of luck, he was shocked to find that this Qu Yuanli had an extra talent of +10% work efficiency!
"Brother Ziyang's wonderful skills!" Chu Nan gave Liu Ye a thumbs up. This skill is truly unspeakable. Even if he doesn't become a counselor, he will definitely be a famous carpenter in the future.
"Unfortunately, it is impossible for all craftsmen to reach this level." Liu Ye sighed.
"The appearance of this thing is already rare. How many people in the world can possess Brother Ziyang's skills?" Chu Nan shook his head. This is a man with the hand of creation.
"Although the spring plowing has not yet started, the affairs of the two counties have come to an end. The next spring plowing will only need to be carried out step by step. It will not be as busy as it is now. When are you going to visit Natian Hengdao?"
Liu Ye turned his head and looked into the distance.
Now Jiujiang and Lujiang are busy with things. Although they are busy with spring plowing, the people who are busy are the grassroots officials. Chu Nan, the prefect of the two counties, is already busy with the things that he should be busy with. Liu Ye is more concerned about Tian Heng
Things about the secret island.
"It hasn't been opened yet, why should Brother Ziyang be anxious?" Chu Nan said with a smile.
Ever since he told Liu Ye about the vision on Tian Heng Island that day, Liu Ye had been thinking about it. For this reason, Chu Nan even sent a letter to Xuzhou, asking his father-in-law and teacher to pay attention to the Tian Heng Island incident.
After Liu Ye made such a fuss, he became a little more curious about this secret realm.
Inheritance and treasures, no matter what they are, are enough to make the hearts of any princes along the way. Every secret realm can at least cultivate a good talent, or allow the original talent to break through to a higher level.
This is especially true for princes with little background like Lu Bu.
And every time the secret realm is opened, there will be more and more people with supernatural powers in the world. Maybe one day in the future, this world will really become a world where supermen fly everywhere.
"Your Majesty, you still don't understand. The vegetation grows luxuriantly near this secret realm. If you can cultivate a few plants containing this plant here, you will have a great chance of success." Liu Ye sighed, looked at Chu Nan and said, "Of course, this
In such places, the possibility of monsters appearing is also extremely high."
Hearing this, Chu Nan nodded silently. He had never thought about this before. He immediately said to Liu Ye: "In that case, let's finish what we are doing first. I will write a letter to see if I can replace him in a few days."
How about we go see it with Brother Ziyang in the future?"
"Just in time, stay down and prepare a few plants!" Liu Ye nodded, and he was going to plant something there.
A few more days passed like this. On this day, Chu Nan was walking along the river with his wife when he saw a sound of flapping wings in the sky. When he looked up, he saw the pigeon demon descending from the sky with a scroll of bamboo slips in his mouth.
Pass it to Chu Nan.
"What happened?" Lu Lingqi asked suspiciously when she saw Chu Nan's expression became serious.
"There are monsters gathering near Tianheng Island. It seems that the secret realm is about to be opened. Madam, would you like to come with me?" Chu Nan looked at Lu Lingqi and said.
