Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 267, Dongshan Road family actively approached, brother-in-law! Why do you practice domineering true qi?

The owner of Qing Yu Tang, who founded the navy, will also become a new exploiter.

Reform will only fail and may even cause the entire Qing Kingdom to fall apart.

Ye Qingmei is a very proud woman and doesn't want to see herself fail.

So she would rather choose to quietly let Emperor Qing and his gang of villains drain away her defenses and be killed by others.

He also didn't want to see himself being deserted by his friends and relatives, suffering a lifetime of infamy, and returning to the temple in disgrace to spend the rest of his life.

Fan Dadan looked at Liu Hong's somewhat bleak face, plucked up his courage, and asked tentatively.

"Brother, you've been talking about Ye Qingmei a lot lately. Why don't I bring you some of Ye Qingmei's relics to express my longing for her?"

"???"

Liu Hong didn't quite understand Fan Dabing's train of thought and looked at him in confusion.

Is he some kind of perverted person?

Fan Dabing was happy to see that Liu Hong was not angry.

"Brother, no matter what you do, we old brothers will support you. At worst, we can just go back to the old Qing Dynasty."

The reason why Fan Dadan was chosen as the captain of the personal guard was entirely due to his optimistic mentality.

Er Gouzi and Ji Xin noticed that Liu Hong was in a bad mood these days, so they specially arranged for Fan Dadan, who was both loyal and heartless.

Liu Hong burst out laughing, stood up and patted Fan Dabing on the shoulder.

His tone regained its previous confidence.

“There is no need to miss our predecessors. We can surpass them.”

Since Ye Qingmei's top-down reform has failed, let Liu Hong try a bottom-up revolution.

Liu Hong cheered up and received many officials and generals from aristocratic families in Dongshan Road in Jiaozhou with a peaceful attitude.

There was no sign of any desire to settle scores later.

Slowly soothe the uneasy hearts of these noble families.

At the same time, the land, grain and silver of the aristocratic families who were exterminated in Jiaozhou City were all restored thanks to the efforts of the Supervisory Commission and the East Factory.

Liu Hong brought out those illegitimate children who were not allowed to see the light of day, gave them names, and allowed them to have many children and inherit the legacy of the master's family.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Top families like Fan Jian all have illegitimate children.

What's more, if they were not careful, the local wealthy families would be exterminated by the emperor.

After these people inherited the master's legacy, they pinned their wealth and glory on Liu Hong and would only become Liu Hong's most loyal followers.

The noble families who were still waiting and watching were finally relieved.

It seems that Liu Hong agreed to the request of Supervisory Yuan President Chen Pingping.

Otherwise, according to Liu Hong's previous practice, he would only distribute these lands to the people.

How could it be given to the survivor of a noble family, an illegitimate child!
This was a gesture of goodwill from Liu Hong. While the noble families of Dongshan Road were delighted, they also honestly paid the full amount of taxes for the year for the first time.

As for the charity banquet for the construction of the new Danzhou city and the Yangtze River embankment.

He still casually took out a few hundred taels of silver to send the person away.

It is already good enough that they can pay the full amount of taxes honestly. If they provide a little more silver, it will be more painful than killing these noble families.

Before the butcher's knife fell, these noble families would just be like misers, holding boxes of gold and silver treasures and burying them in coffins.

Liu Hong did not specifically request that these noble families must donate silver and grain.

This year's tax revenue is 4 million for Dongshan Road and 2.6 million for Jiangbei Road.

It might help the Grand Commander's Mansion get out of its predicament, at least there would be money to build a defense line, and some money and food left for a rebellion in the future.

As for the taxes in Jiangnan Road, Liu Hong basically had no hope.

The breach of the Yangtze River dike almost destroyed all of Liu Hong’s plans for Jiangnan Road.

In addition to Versace and Zhang Liang, he continued to win over the hearts and minds of the people and attract the aristocratic families on Jiangnan Road.

The officialdom of Jiangnan has basically fallen into the hands of Fan Xian, that is, the hands of Emperor Qing.

"What a pity! If Jiangnan had one million dan of grain and ten million taels of tax every year, we wouldn't be in such a passive position now."

Liu Hong sighed slightly in the study.

However, he did not regret using all the money to build the Yangtze River dike.

Jiangnan Road is indeed important, but not as important as the millions of people living along the Yangtze River.

"General, Versace wants to see you!" Fan boldly opened the door.

After not seeing each other for a year, Versace's originally dark face became whiter and his figure became taller.

The misty rain of Jiangnan is indeed nourishing, transforming Versace from a money-grubber in Kyoto into a well-mannered tycoon.

In Jiangnan, Versace and the Ming family joined forces, transferred many industries into Qianhang, and also expanded Baoyue Tower.

Although it still could not prevent the three major workshops of the inner treasury from being completely taken away by Fan Xian using the Supervisory Council.

But at least it allowed the Ming family to survive and made Qianhang the leader among many money houses.

"Brother-in-law!"

Versace was shocked when he saw Liu Hong’s haggard face.

Liu Hong raised his hand and smiled, letting Versace in.

In the sleeve of his right arm, a large piece of silver thread almost wrapped around Liu Hong's entire arm.

"Versace, why are you coming to Jiaozhou if you don't run your bank in Jiangnan?"

Liu Hong's attitude was as gentle as ever.

But Versace frowned tightly and pushed away the somewhat unfamiliar captain of the personal guard, Fan Dabing.

"boom!"

The door was closed tightly.

Fan Dabing curled his lips. He was one of the first people to follow Liu Hong.

When he followed Liu Hong to participate in the war between the two countries and occupied Qianlong Bay, Versace was still a young and dissolute man!
As a result, Versace doesn't trust himself now.

There was a hint of surprise in Liu Hong's eyes. Could it be that Versace discovered something?

"Brother-in-law! Are you crazy? Your original skills are already rare in the world, why do you still want to practice Fan Xian's domineering true qi!"

Versace looked at Liu Hong's pale face and growled.

He held onto Liu Hong's sleeve tightly and refused to let go, his eyes determined to get an answer from Liu Hong.

Liu Hong's tone was quite helpless. He pointed and motioned Versace to sit down while he slowly explained.

"Everyone thinks I'm a seventh-rank archer, but I'm actually a ninth-rank archer. I think a lot of people know that!"

"Otherwise, those noble families that I have divided into households with would probably want to hire a few ninth-rank masters to kill me."

Versace fell silent.

There are almost no generals below the eighth rank among the high-ranking figures in the Qing army.

Although there is a threshold between the eighth and ninth ranks, in the eyes of generals who have fought hard on the battlefield, it is not worth mentioning at all.

As long as there is enough time and resources, even if you pile it up, you can reach the ninth level.

Mr. Qin, the pacification envoy of the Privy Council, is of the ninth rank, and Yan Xiaoyi, the Grand Commander-in-Chief of Zhenbei, is of the ninth rank.

Then in the eyes of many people with ulterior motives, even if Liu Hong is not a ninth-rank official, he is probably almost there.

Versace raised his head, still with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Brother-in-law, what does this have to do with your cultivation of domineering Qi? Didn't you see how Fan Xian's Qi was chaotic and he would vomit blood and become weak all the time? Now he has become a cripple?"

Liu Hong's face was slightly stunned and he looked quite unwilling.

Ever since he started practicing Tianyi Dao and returned from Northern Qi, his true Qi has reached the ninth level.

However, the threshold to becoming a grandmaster was like a chasm that Liu Hong could not grasp or break through.

Liu Hong glanced at Versace and spoke softly.

"What I'm telling you is confidential. You are not allowed to tell anyone within two years."

Versace's heart was inexplicably shaken and he nodded heavily.

"I will try to cultivate both Tianyi Dao and Badao Zhenqi to the upper ninth level, and use their common characteristics of being incompatible with each other to break through to the Grandmaster level."

"But I failed! So I had a Qi riot in Hengzhou City and finally fainted on the scene."

The voice was very soft, but it revealed a shocking secret.

After all, Liu Hong underestimated the settings in the original work.

When Fan Xian used his cultivation to return to the ninth rank, he practiced dual cultivation with Haitang Duoduo. Even in the TV series, he had the help of Ye Liuyun.
