Chapter 20 Runan Rebellion (please collect and recommend)
After finishing again, He Yan and Cao Pi went to buy some green tangerines to cover up the smell.
But it was okay once. Cao Pi actually took He Yan there four times in five days!
"He Yan, I can no longer keep the green tangerines on my roof. Why don't you take them back and eat some?"
"Get out! I don't even have room in the house to put it!"
He Yan sighed: "Don't you have younger brothers and sisters? Just say you bought them for Cao Jie?"
Cao Pi held his waist: "She is really greedy, but she has been getting angry after eating too much recently, and my mother no longer allows her to eat."
"What about Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang?"
"I'm also angry, and my pee is yellow."
Cao Pi was a little worried: "If this continues, my mother will become suspicious sooner or later."
"It's okay if you don't go."
"no!"
Cao Pi seemed to have experienced the fun, and his expression was particularly determined: "The head can be cut off, the blood can be shed, and the daughter has to go! Besides, we are all real men! How can we give up just because of the slightest difficulty?"
Cao Pi asked He Yan in a flattering manner: "He Yan, you are the smartest! Do you think there is any way to solve it once and for all? After all, buying green tangerines is quite expensive!"
He Yan scratched his scalp: "There is a way..."
The next day.
Mrs. Bian smelled a familiar smell when she woke up in the morning.
Following the smell to the backyard, Mrs. Bian discovered that Cao Pi was instructing the waiters to plant green plants.
When Cao Pi saw Mrs. Bian coming out, he walked up to Mrs. Bian and said, "Mom, what do you think of this thousand-year-old red plant I moved?"
Mrs. Bian covered her nose with her hands and frowned slightly: "Why did Pi'er think of suddenly planting such a smelly tree?"
Cao Pi quickly praised this thousand-year-old red tree to Mrs. Bian, and he would keep this tree in the yard whether he lived or not.
Although Mrs. Bian felt something was wrong, she thought that Cao Pi really liked Tanhua on weekdays, so she didn't say anything more.
But when Cao Jie woke up and knew what Cao Pi had done, his whole body exploded!
With disheveled hair and a needle in hand, she rushed to Cao Pi's room: "Move that smelly tree away from me!!!"

He Yan has been quietly waiting for news these days, except for being dragged to his daughter's house dozens of times by Cao Pi reluctantly.
"Runan Yellow Turban thief Liu Pi rebelled!"
"Yuan Shao sent Liu Bei to attack Jianqiang County in Yingchuan County, and many counties in the south of Xuchang responded with their cities!"
The two pieces of news swept over Xuchang almost like a storm, causing Xuchang, which was originally calm, to be shaken again.
Now not only the wealthy families, but also the emperor could not sit still and began to worry.
Yuan Shao attacked Xuchang, but Liu Xie was not afraid.
But if Liu Pi and his group of Yellow Turbans attack Xuchang, Liu Xie will probably be even more miserable than when he was in Guanzhong!
The emperor was frightened and all the officials were shocked. How could everyone else fare better?
The people's hearts, which were finally calmed down by the execution of Yan Liangwen Chou, are beginning to stir again.
The most obvious change is the land price!
Originally, a rising tide lifts all boats, but the price of land, which has returned to stability, has plummeted again, and is even lower than the price when Bian Bing bought the land before!
"It's time to take action."
He Yan threw away all the hundreds of thousands of dollars: "Now, I can finally have financial freedom!"
At the same time, Xun Yu also summoned some people in Xuchang City.
In this critical time of life and death, Xun Yu, a big Han social butterfly, obviously did not care about being good at dancing and directly issued threats to these people——
"Sikong is currently confronting Yuan Shao in Guandu, and there are remnants of the Yellow Turbans causing chaos in the south. I hope you will take the overall situation into consideration and refrain from doing dangerous things again."
Xun Yu was obviously also panicked by the news of Runan's rebellion.
No matter what military actions Cao Cao would take to pacify Runan, Xun Yu himself would have to stabilize the situation in the rear.
Naturally, all the aristocratic families agreed wholeheartedly.
But when they left Xun Yu's residence, their thoughts started to wander again.
"Cao Cao's defeat has appeared, how can we follow him?"
On the one hand, they were unwilling to hand over the grain, and on the other hand, they were worried that Xun Yu's fish would be destroyed. These people also heard that a big enemy was still buying fields at this time, and they also had a plan.
"Let's hang out our fields first, and then wait for time, so as to stop Xun Yu!"
These people are very calculating.
They used the excuse that "the land was being traded" to stabilize Xun Yu, and they would immediately terminate the transaction as soon as Cao Cao was defeated.
In this way, Xun Yu will not let Xun Yu just make excuses to take away their food, and he can also protect his own land!
He Yan, who was in the process of acquiring land, soon discovered that there were many high-quality fertile fields at low prices on the market.
Bian Bing, who was responsible for helping He Yan buy land, certainly would not miss this opportunity and directly purchased these fertile fields in one go. That was very impressive.
But the problem is,
After the deal was concluded, the owners of these fields were neither in a hurry to collect the money nor to hand over the fields to Bian Bing.
Bian Bing urged repeatedly, but they refused to proceed with the transaction and instead used various excuses.
In desperation, Bian Bing had no choice but to go to He Yan for help.
He Yan was not in a hurry and just asked Bian Bing to inquire about the news. He soon learned that Xun Yu had made interviews with many aristocratic families.
"I see."
He Yan naturally guessed the plans of those aristocratic families.
"These people are quite smart."
"It's really hard to handle Xun Yu's ministerial order by hanging the fields out and dragging them away on the grounds of land sales."
Xun Yu is still the minister of the Han Dynasty, not Cao Cao.
Therefore, he had to take Han laws into consideration when doing things, and could not put the food of these aristocratic families into his pockets like bandits. This gave the aristocratic families the opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes in the rules.
but……
"They actually used me as a shield and didn't even give the Bian family face. These aristocratic families are really arrogant."
Bian Bing was a little unsure: "Master He, do we still want to continue buying land now?"
He Yan narrowed his eyes at this moment: "Buy! If they dare to show it, I dare to buy it!"
"Just pile the money on their house! They don't want it even if they don't want it!"
"When the time comes, as long as Sikong comes back, they will have to admit it to me even if this account is false!"
No one believed that Cao Cao could win this battle, but He Yan believed it!
Seeing that He Yan had made up his mind, Bian Bing began to acquire the fields of those aristocratic families.
Because prices were generally low, He Yan quickly bought more than a thousand acres of land and became one of the largest landowners in Xuchang and even the entire Yingchuan County.
Even so, He Yan still couldn't be happy.
Because nearly 70% of his thousands of acres of land has not been handed over to him by the aristocratic family, and all he owns are a few title deeds with incomplete procedures.
"Aristocratic family, ha."
He Yan's mind was a little ups and downs, and he seemed a little irritable.
Even with Cao Cao's backing, the property would definitely be completed in the end, but He Yan still felt a lot of dissatisfaction when he thought of being used by others...
