Small landlords depend on small families, while small families depend on large families, and they are inconsistent.

The turmoil caused by the division of fields soon reached the ears of real big shots.

In Xiangyang City, the heads of the aristocratic families gathered together.

"Mr. Cai, if this continues, we will have no one to use after those people are gone!" Chen Liang continued: "Although the extra money can keep people, Wuyin promises that 70% of them are our own, and this has been done. We definitely cannot do it, otherwise the gap is too big compared to before!"

"Brother, you are now a member of the governor. The Chen family has served for our Cai family for so many years, and there are so many families of all sizes below. Brother must express his opinion on this matter!" Cai He said to Cai Mao.

Cai Mao was on the main seat and looked at everyone without saying anything.

Although Jingzhou is large, Wuyin and Xiangyang are both in Jingzhou, and are not far apart. This place has the most aristocratic families, so it has suffered the greatest impact.

All the news from Wuyin has been spread here in the past two days.

Cai Mao had heard about these people before they came to report.

But this matter has already arisen and has even spread all over the world, but Cai Mao himself knew that there was no good idea.

After a pause, he said, "Now you raise their wages first. They just want money and food, give it to them first."

"And you can tell them first that we will give them real food now, and Wuyin will not be known after half a year, and the real situation will not be known. After that, if they leave, you let them go!"

In Cai Mao's opinion, stabilizing now is the first step, and then you can start to have a psychological war on them slowly.

"I have to do this, so let's listen to Lord Cai first!" The people below said when Cai Mao spoke.

At this time, one person stood up and said, "But sir, we are worried that if we want to continue to ask for it after we add them three times and want to treat it 70% like Wuyin, what should we do?"

In the eyes of the aristocratic families, giving in 30% is the limit, and they are reluctant to give in to these 30% and must find an opportunity to get it back in the future.

And if the people below want 70%, they will not be able to satisfy themselves.

"Kill!" Cai Mao said coldly, and said directly: "Such people should be discovered in time and deal with them in time in secret. If a person dares to say that, you will kill everyone before this, so that they will be honest!"

"Kill?"

"Yes, if something happens, my Cai family will be in Xiangyang!" Cai Mao said, an authoritative aura spread throughout the audience, causing others to stop interrupting immediately.

They said one after another: "Sir, I'll do it now!"

After everyone left, only Cai Mao, Cai and the two brothers were left.

"Cai He, these days, the damn people below have been in chaos. The root of everything is Wuyin. You send someone to Wuyin to see what to do. You should know what to do!" Cai Mao continued: "Besides, I believe it is not just us who are doing this. People who do this will not only be us. The movement can be big or small, you can do it yourself!"

"In addition, don't let my sister know about this!"

"Yes, brother, I know this measure!" After that, Cai He retreated.

In Cai Mao's opinion, the root of the current turmoil is Wuyin because of Bai Xi, the ruler in Wuyin.

And the affected ones are definitely not just Xiangyang.

And that's true, when news and storms reach a larger center of power, the impact will be greater.

"Lord, have you heard of Wuyin these days?" When Cao Cao came back to the mansion, he found Cheng Yu waiting for him. Cheng Yu continued: "I didn't care about it at first, but I heard from the following reports that the people around Xudu are going to rebel. They want land and food. Now they are on strike and stop!"

"What happened?" At the top of the power center of Xudu, Cao Cao generally rarely cared about low things, and in the past few days, some of the big families in Xudu dealt with each other, it was even more unknown about Wuyin: "What happened?"

Immediately afterwards, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, and Cao Ang told Cao Cao about the recent dividing of land and recruiting talents.

"It's unreasonable! Such a strategy of dividing land is to destroy the foundation of the Han Dynasty. I'm just in the court, and I'm trying to resist the opposition and give him a title of a marquis of a different surname!" Cao Cao was furious when he heard this.

Land taxes are the top priority of national wealth, and every time they send troops in the name of the court, most of the food and grass used are also from the treasury. Bai Xi did this unintentionally touched his own interests.

"Tell those people below, don't worry about money first, add money to those who make trouble, and keep them steady!" Cao Cao continued: "In addition, we are Xudu here, so don't have any dead things happen. Everyone in the world is staring at us!"

"Yes, lord, I'll go down and arrange it now!" The people below were still waiting, so Cheng Yu quickly retreated.

"Now Bai Xi is doing things more and more extraordinaryly. He doesn't think about who is in this world?" Cao Cao looked angry: "I don't even want food. Does he want to live?"

"Wenruo, what do you think?"

"Bai Xi is a bit out of style this time. If he moves things that he shouldn't have moved, he will be criticized a lot!" Xun Yu said.

"I'm not asking this. I want to hear what do you think Bai Xi wants to do?"

"This..." Xun Yu said truthfully: "It's not to be concealed. Brother Bai's actions have never been heard of, and Wen Ruo couldn't figure it out for a moment."

It is understandable for them to recruit talents, but they have heard of this way of dividing land for the first time.

Now Xun Yu really can't figure it out. Fighting requires food, military pay requires money, and 30% of the income. For them, they can't do anything.

Of course, they didn't know that Baixi's real purpose was not food, but commercial taxes after Wuyin's traffic was high.

Doing this now will only last for a few years.

"Why should you give this marquis to him?"

"Give it, you have to give it. Although it is just a false reputation, I have already said it in the court. If I don't want to give it, I have to give it!" Cao Cao continued: "In addition, if you don't give it to him, the marquis, if you ask him to come to Xudu, he will definitely not come!"

"I'm going to ask him in person and ask him what he wants to do!"

"Father, I heard that the people below sent some people Xiang Wuyin, would this be?" Cao Ang said at this time.

"Send someone?" Cao Cao smiled: "Anyway, it's not ours. If he dares to do this, he will definitely have to bear this. Let's see how he deals with it for now?"
