Jin Feng pointed to the chair next to him and motioned for Qing Yuan and Chen Wenyuan to sit down.
There were not so many bureaucratic formalities in Xihewan, and the two of them were old acquaintances with Princess Guan Xiaorou, so they were all polite and quickly sat down on the chairs, then stared at Jin Feng, waiting for his answer.
"I will conquer all the feudal lords next!"
Jin Feng's first words almost made Qing Yuan and Chen Wenyuan jump up in fright.
They guessed that Jin Feng was going to do something big, but they didn't expect it to be such a big thing!
Before the two of them could ask questions, Jin Feng continued: "After conquering the fiefdoms of various vassals, I will attack the local tyrants and distribute their fields to the people!"
Now Qingyuan Chen Wenyuan couldn't sit still anymore and jumped up directly.
They are now considered people who have seen the world, and they know very well what Jin Feng's words mean.
What is the root cause of people's hunger? Isn't it just being exploited at all levels?
It has been hundreds of years since the founding of Dakang, and now most of the land has been annexed by local landlords and gentry in various ways.
The vast majority of the people could only become tenant farmers.
After working hard in the fields every year, most of the harvested food is given to the landlord, and the rest cannot even feed and clothe the family.
If Jin Feng distributes land directly to the people, it will definitely be supported by all farmers!
But what Qingyuan and Chen Wenyuan didn't understand was that they were from a song and dance troupe. Although they often performed at the Escort Bureau and Zhenyuan Army Station, they never participated in the management of the Escort Bureau and Zhenyuan Army. Why did Jin Feng tell them this?
"Calm down," Jin Feng saw the confusion in their eyes and waved his hand for them to sit down.
Guan Xiaorou smiled and picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water for each of them.
Guan Xiaorou was Jin Feng's first wife. No matter how familiar they were, Qingyuan and Chen Wenyuan did not dare to let Guan Xiaorou pour water for them.
If it was normal, Qingyuan would have gone to grab the kettle, but at this time, the two of them were focused on Jin Feng and did not notice Guan Xiaorou at all.
"Look for you two to come here. There are two things you need to do."
Jin Feng held out a finger: "First, you two must expand the song and dance troupe as soon as possible. After conquering the territories of other feudal lords, you must go there as soon as possible to carry out propaganda work!"
In the feudal prince's fiefdom, they may not necessarily discredit Jin Feng and the Ninth Princess.
At this time, it is time for the song and dance troupe to play its role and start a public opinion war with the other party.
"Sir, it is our unshirkable responsibility to promote the spirit of Xihewan!"
Qingyuan expressed her attitude first, then frowned and said, "But in this case, our manpower may not be enough!"
"That's the second thing I want to tell you."
Jin Feng stretched out a finger again: "After Mr. Qing comes here, I will ask him to abolish the brothels in Sichuan and Sichuan as soon as possible. If things go well, there will be a large number of brothel girls becoming good people. When the time comes, Qingyuan, you can choose the right girl from them.
Join the cabaret."
Hearing Jin Feng say this, there was a gasp of cold air in the room.
Not only Qingyuan and Chen Wenyuan, but also the Ninth Princess and Qin'er Zhu'er also widened their eyes at the same time.
Even Kita Chihiro, who was standing at the door, couldn't help but take a look inside.
The eyes of the Ninth Princess were not only shocked but also worried.
What shocked me was not that Jin Feng wanted to abolish brothels, but what he said just now.
Based on his understanding of Jin Feng, since he said that Qing Xinyao should abolish the brothel as soon as possible, it illustrates Jin Feng's attitude towards Qing Xinyao from the side.
This is completely the mentality of superiors treating subordinates.
If Qing Xinyao did not agree, Jin Feng would probably fall out with Qing Xinyao.
Although Qing Xinyao was not a vassal king, the Qing family had been running Xichuan for so many years and had a much deeper foundation than most vassal kings.
The most important thing is that Jinchuan is not only within the territory of Sichuan and Shu, but also the territory of Qinghuai.
Before the rise of Jin Feng, Qinghuai's influence in Jinchuan was very great.
Many Jinchuan people retired from the Tielin Army, and many are even still serving in the Tielin Army.
Among the first few batches of escorts in the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, more than 70% were veterans of the Tielin Army.
Once there is a conflict between Jin Feng and the Qing family, the consequences will be too serious and may even cause the split of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency and even the entire Jinchuan.
But the Ninth Princess knew that Jin Feng's decision was correct.
Being restless in the rear is a taboo for military strategists.
It is better to have a showdown with Qing Xinyao now than to fall out later.
The Ninth Princess's mind was racing, thinking about how to avoid a conflict between Jin Feng and Qing Xinyao.
Jin Feng didn't care what the Ninth Princess thought. He paused and continued:
"Miss Qingyuan, please stop going out to perform recently. Arrange the training process. After selecting a suitable girl, you must start training as soon as possible."
"No problem," Qingyuan put away the distracting thoughts in her heart and nodded quickly to assure her: "Most of the girls in the brothel have learned singing and dancing. As long as they have a notebook, they can learn quickly."
"It depends on Mr. Chen," Jin Feng turned to look at Chen Wenyuan: "Mr. has been working overtime recently, so he can rush out a few suitable books as soon as possible."
"Sir, you don't need a good book to distribute land to local tyrants. As long as the people hear about it, they will definitely help us publicize it!" Chen Wenyuan said confidently.
"What I want to promote is not only about apportioning land to local tyrants, but also about another thing."
Jin Feng pointed at the Ninth Princess: "Wu Yang will ascend the throne soon, and I'm afraid that vassal kings from all over the country will use this as an excuse to attack her, so you not only have to publicize the land allocation for local tyrants, but also the benefits of Wu Yang's ascension to the throne!"
"What?"
Qing Yuan and Chen Wenyuan couldn't bear it anymore, and they all looked at Jin Feng like crazy.
They really didn't expect that Jin Feng would make the crazy decision to let a woman ascend the throne as emperor.
Even if this woman is the Ninth Princess whom they respect very much!
"Sir, this..." Chen Wenyuan said with a look of embarrassment: "Since ancient times, no woman has ever claimed the title of emperor. This... the people may say that His Highness the Ninth Prince's status is not righteous!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, Wuyang's identity is from a very good background!" Jin Feng said with a smile: "Before the emperor was persecuted by the traitor Chen Zheng, he personally ordered someone to send the imperial seal to the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau. This is not the same as the following.
Did the imperial edict pass the throne to Wuyang?"
"The imperial seal is in our Zhenyuan Escort Bureau?"
The news he heard today was more shocking than the last, and Chen Wenyuan felt like he was going numb.
"Yes!" Jin Feng opened the wooden box on the desk, revealing the imperial seal lying quietly inside.
Qing Yuan and Chen Wenyuan saw this wooden box just now, but they didn't pay attention to it. They just thought it was an ordinary box for storing things.
When they learned that there was a jade seal inside, the two of them almost knelt down on the spot.
"Sir, I know how to write it!"
Chen Wenyuan already had a rough outline of the story in his mind.
"Then go back and write it quickly. Don't forget it later."
Jin Feng said with a smile.
Chen Wenyuan cupped his hands at the people in the room and ran out.
"I'm going back to prepare too." Qingyuan also saluted and left.
Just as I walked to the door, I met Xiaoyu coming in.
"Sir, there is news from the pier that Mr. Qing is back!"
