"The thieves are brutal and ruthless. They divided up our land and left us with no way out. It is unbearable!"
"Now, General Xiao is leading an army of 200,000 to conquer the bandit army. The bandit army is like a grasshopper after autumn, and its life is not long!"
"After you each return home, quickly pass on the word. If anyone works for the bandit army again, they will be liquidated in the future, and they will die without a place to bury them!"
The Qinghe Army troops led by Chen Ziang fought in full swing with the 20th Corps of the People's Army led by Qin Feng on the front line of Anling, and the Yunxi Mansion was also undercurrents.
Under the series of new policies of the Qinghe Army, the gentry and rich men who have lost their interests are actively active, trying to cooperate internally and externally to completely defeat the Qinghe Army.
Facing the active gentry and wealthy lords, the various departments of the government affairs government of the Qinghe Army who stayed behind seemed to have become deaf and blind. Facing the situation of the undercurrent, they seemed not to be aware of it at all.
Wu Zhenrui, a squire of Wujiabao directly under the jurisdiction of Yunxi Prefecture, has already opened a large-scale pig farm in the outskirts of the city.
He has bought more than 2,000 piglets from various places, and he also bought mature live pigs in various villages and towns, and sold them in Yunxi Mansion. Although it was only a one-time transfer, he still made a lot of money.
Wu Zhenrui can be said to be very motivated now. He feels that as long as he is given a little more time, he can become the largest pig farmer in Yunxi Mansion, and he can monopolize the pork supply in Yunxi Mansion by then.
The only thing he is worried about now is the battle on the front line, because he is now tied to the same boat as the Qinghe Army.
Once the Qinghe Army was defeated on the front line, Yunxi Mansion would return to the imperial court's control.
His own pig farm will definitely not be able to continue, and he has connections with the Qinghe army, so his life may be in danger.
Wu Zhenrui would send people to the Yunxi government office to inquire about news every day, and he was particularly concerned about the frontline war.
In the past, Wu Zhenrui didn't bother to pay attention to the change of the King's Banner at the head of the city, but now he prayed in his heart that the Qinghe Army would win the battle.
"My son, the master told you to put down what you are doing and go home to avoid the limelight for a few days."
Just as Wu Zhenrui was praying for the Qinghe Army on the front line, hoping that they could defeat the invading 20th Corps of the People's Army and win the battle, someone from his hometown in the countryside came.
The old housekeeper brought along the words of Mr. Wu, saying that something might happen to Yunxi Mansion recently, so he asked him to pack up and go home.
"What's going on? Has the front line lost the battle?"
Wu Zhenrui was also confused when he heard that the old housekeeper asked him to go home.
"I heard that the imperial court has sent 200,000 troops. Even if Chen Zi'ang has three heads and six arms, he is not an opponent. His defeat is only a matter of time."
"Now the imperial court has passed down a message, requiring all families to cooperate with others to completely defeat the bandit army. Each family has now conspired and formulated a plan. It is just these few days, so the master wants you to go home to avoid the limelight."
After some inquiries from Wu Zhenrui, the old butler told the young master Wu Zhenrui everything they knew.
"You go back first, let my father stay at home and don't get involved with them. I will go back after I settle things here."
Wu Zhenrui was also shocked to hear that the wealthy gentry had colluded to do something in Yunxi Mansion.
It stands to reason that Wu Zhenrui and his family are also one of the losers, and they should have hated Qinghe Army and Chen Ziang too.
However, the Qinghe army closed a door for them and opened a window for them.
Only now did Wu Zhenrui realize that guarding the land passed down from his ancestors for the rest of his life was useless, so he was still very grateful for the Qinghe Army's industrial support policy.
Now that his career has just started, someone is trying to overthrow the rule of the Qinghe Army and ruin his career, which makes him suddenly feel confused about the way forward.
"Young Master, the 100 live pigs purchased from Dianhe have arrived."
When Wu Zhenrui was locked in the room alone thinking about where he should go, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Transport it to the slaughterhouse of the old Zhang family next door. After the meat is processed, it will be sent directly to the place designated by the government in batches."
"Yes, son."
After Wu Zhenrui gave his orders, he stared out of the window and meditated for a long time. In the evening, he hurriedly left his pig farm and went straight to Yunxi Mansion.
Fortunately, his pig farm is on the outskirts of the city, and he entered Yunxi Prefecture before the city gate closed.
Wu Zhenrui went straight??Walking to the street outside the Yunxi Government Office, although he has been here countless times, he still hesitated when he saw the high hanging lanterns.
He knew that once he went to inform, many people would lose their heads, and he would completely stand on the opposite side of the gentry and rich lords.
But if I don't inform, once these country gentry and rich men get their way, the career I have worked so hard to get will be ruined.
"Mr. Wu, why are you here? Have you eaten yet? Let's go, let's have a drink or two and discuss the expansion of your pig farm."
Just as Wu Zhenrui was hesitating on the street in front of the government office, a tall and thin official greeted Wu Zhenrui with a smile.
This official is none other than Miao Cai, who previously served as the head of the household department of the Yunxi Government Affairs Office.
It's just that now Miao Cai is not only the head of the household department, but also the head of the business department, holding great power, and Wu Zhenrui often deals with him.
?Compared to those high-ranking officials in the past, Miao Cai and other Yunxi government officials were not only amiable, but also never asked for cards, which impressed Wu Zhenrui a lot.
Facing Miao Cai's warm invitation, Wu Zhenrui didn't have dinner because he had something on his mind, so he readily agreed.
Although the front line is now in full swing, except for the addition of patrol soldiers from the Security Department in Yunxi Prefecture, everything is orderly and there is no panic at all.
A newly opened restaurant in Yunxi Mansion was also brightly lit. Seeing Miao Cai, a powerful figure in the government affairs government, and Wu Zhenrui coming together, the doorman hurriedly welcomed them in.
In the past, as soon as it got dark, Nuoda's Yunxi Prefecture fell into darkness, and everyone fell asleep early.
But now, a newly opened restaurant like this will stay open until ten o'clock at night, which has changed the nighttime ecology of Yunxi Mansion.
Wu Zhenrui is the pork supplier of this restaurant, and he has been here several times when negotiating business, but he has never eaten here.
Wu Zhenrui wanted to tell Miao Cai something important, so he asked for a private room on the second floor, and ordered some exquisite dishes and a pot of recently famous Yunxi wine.
Wu Zhenrui and Miao Cai also had a lot of contacts, so they ate and chatted, exchanging opinions on the expansion of the pig farm.
"Brother Wu, do you have something on your mind?"
Seeing that Wu Zhenrui was absent-minded and kept drinking, Miao Cai also noticed the clue.
"Master Miao, to be honest, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."
The alcohol content of Yunxi wine is very high, Wu Zhenrui felt dizzy after only a few cups, so he wanted to remind Miao Cai of the connection between the gentry and the rich.
