Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Three days later.

Hanzhong County Sheriff's Mansion.

Hundreds of county magistrates, magistrates, landlords, wealthy businessmen, wealthy households, and nobles from various counties in Hanzhong gathered together.

Many people present were confused about the sudden invitation from the Hanzhong County Sheriff today.

Especially when they arrived, they were even more puzzled when they saw that there were so many landowners and nobles around them who were invited just like themselves.

Everyone waited for a cup of tea.

Chen Jing finally arrived late.

"I'll see Governor Chen later."

After all, Chen Jinghui was the highest official in the Hanzhong government, so even the most powerful old nobles in Hanzhong County were treated with sufficient courtesy on the surface.

Chen Jinghui also returned the courtesy politely, and then said with a smile: "You have come all the way, it's because of my negligence."

"You're welcome, Commander Chen."

Everyone was polite for a while, and then they saw an old man walking out of the crowd and asked, "I wonder if Governor Chen invited us to gather together today to announce something important?"

"Mr. He, don't be anxious. In fact, I am not the one who invited you all today. There is someone else who invited you here today. I am just passing the message on my behalf."

Chen Jing replied gently to the old man.

As soon as these words came out.

Only then did everyone realize that although Chen Jinghui was standing in the main seat, he did not sit down. Instead, he stood to one side, as if waiting for someone.

Upon noticing this, many people present felt a chill in their hearts.

The Hanzhong County Sheriff's Mansion is still Chen Jinghui's territory. How many people in today's world can force Chen Jinghui to give up his position?

While many people were thinking, Chen Jinghui, who was next to the main seat, seemed to have seen something. He suddenly bowed, lowered his head, and bowed to the side with his arms folded.

"grown ups!"

Chen Jing's reply also attracted everyone's attention.

The next second.

Everyone looked in the direction of Chen Jinghui's salute, and saw a tall, handsome young man wearing a simple plain robe, slowly walking out of the inner hall, guarded by three men and two women.

Seeing that it was such a young man who was saluting Chen Jing, most of the people below suddenly showed a bit of astonishment on their faces.

After all, in the current era of "a hairless mouth, a weak work".

Youth is often the antonym of 'power status'.

Only a few people standing at the front of the crowd seemed to have thought of something when they saw Mr. Mo, and their pupils suddenly shrank.

Mo Jun walked straight to the main seat and sat down. Then he looked at Chen Jing and asked, "Chief Chen, are everyone here?"

Chen Jinghui saluted and said, "Sir, seven of them are doing business in other places and were unable to arrive in time."

Mo Jun nodded and said: "Since you can't come, forget it! Then just give them a copy of the land deed!"

Chen Jing bowed back and said, "I understand."

After the conversation with Chen Jinghui was over, a faint smile appeared on Mo Jun's face and he spoke to the people in front of him.

"I am very happy that you all can agree to my invitation today. Let me introduce myself, I am Mr. Mo. Fortunately, the king values ​​me and I have been named "Sheng Pingjun"."

Lord Mo's voice was very soft, but in the ears of everyone below, it was no less than a thunderclap.

Who is Shengping-kun?

I'm afraid there's no one in Hanzhong who doesn't know about it now.

After all, even if we don't talk about Lord Mo's various deeds during this period, just a little bit is enough to make everyone present remember the name of 'Shengping Lord'.

Because today's Hanzhong is the fiefdom of the 'Sheng Pingjun' in front of you.

And it is still a real fiefdom.

"I will pay my respects to Mr. Shengping."

When Mr. Mo finished speaking, the expressions of the group of people below suddenly changed, and they all fell to their knees.

"Everyone get up!"

"Thank you, Mr. Shengping!"

Everyone lowered their heads and stood up respectfully.

These people don't have to be afraid of Chen Jinghui. After all, Chen Jinghui is just a county guard with some background but not much.

But it is impossible for them not to be afraid of Lord Mo, even the five most powerful old nobles in Hanzhong County are the same.

Because the higher you stand, the more you understand.

Many small landowners and small nobles may only know that Lord Mo is now the actual monarch of Hanzhong County.

But they didn't know how Lord Mo got the actual title.

However, the five old nobles at the top of Hanzhong County know very well that this is not just because the Lord Shengping in front of them invented the so-called "new grain seeds", 'quyu plow', and 'waterwheel'... ·Something like that.

It was his fame after he killed twenty-seven old nobles of the Chu Kingdom in Nanjun in three days, and killed Lao Ai and Lu Buwei one after another, that supported the seemingly young Lord Shengping in front of him and his current position. s position.

The "Five Old Nobles" in Hanzhong County are not as powerful as the "Four Major Clans" in Nan County, because behind those old nobles in Nan County is the Chu State, which still exists today, and the Qin State also has the Queen Mother Huayang as its backer. .

But among the "five old nobles" in Hanzhong, three of them are remnants of the [Ba Kingdom] and [Shu Kingdom] that were destroyed by the Qin State. Most of the forces are only rooted in Hanzhong.

Although a powerful dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.

But that also depends on what level of 'dragon' it is and what level of 'snake' it is.

obviously.

In today's Qin State, Mo Jun is definitely one of the few fierce dragons next to the largest black dragon.

Mr. Mo's sudden appearance in Hanzhong was undoubtedly something that completely exceeded everyone's expectations. Now, almost everyone here has not figured out Mr. Mo's temperament and the purpose of Mr. Mo's trip.

Naturally, I felt a little uneasy.

But overall, many people present had relatively calm expressions. After all, in their view, since Mr. Mo was able to spread this magical thing [First Generation Improved Rice Seed] throughout the country.

And it is said that someone in Nanjun also built a shrine for Mr. Mo.

All in all.

It all shows that Mr. Mo is definitely a 'good person' with infinite merit.

And good people are undoubtedly the best kind of people to deal with in this world.

Until the next moment.

Mr. Mo suddenly said: "You all have come from afar, and it's been a long and tiring journey, so I won't be polite to you today."

"Today, I invite you all to come to the Sheriff's Mansion for only one purpose, and that is to make a simple transaction with you."

As he spoke, Mr. Mo waved his hand, and then he saw a dozen guards from the Sheriff's Mansion walking in, holding rolls of cloth that looked like contracts, and then gave one to everyone present.

At first, everyone was slightly confused by Lord Mo's words, but when they saw the contents of the contract, everyone's expressions instantly became extremely ugly.

The content of the contract is simple.

Generally speaking, it is probably a sentence: "Mo Jun will purchase all the farmland of all the families present at the price of one big money per acre."

The atmosphere in the Sheriff's Mansion suddenly became depressing.

For a while.

Only then did he see "He Yuan", the leader of the He family, one of the "Five Old Nobles", come out and said with a gloomy face: "Is Lord Shengping joking with us?"

Mo Jun took a sip of tea and said calmly: "I never joke."

When He Yuan heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said: "So, Lord Shengping is planning to buy and sell by force, using his power to oppress common people like us?"

Mr. Mo put down his teacup, looked at He Yuan strangely, and said, "Yes! I am using my power to bully you! Isn't it obvious enough that I am doing this?"

"you······"

He Yuan was so angry that he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and said solemnly: "It's too much to bully others, Mr. Shengping. I thought you were a person with immeasurable merits who benefited the world, but I didn't expect that the dignified Mr. Shengping would actually He is such a treacherous villain who oppresses good people and takes advantage of his power to bully others."

"I made a mistake. I will definitely tell you what happened today before I get to the throne."

"I would like to see if there is any royal law and justice in this great Qin Dynasty."

These words, spoken by He Yuan, were righteous and stern, full of majesty.

If you don't know his true nature, you might really think that the leader of the He family in front of you is some kind of upright and awe-inspiring person from a famous family!

Mr. Mo stretched out his little finger, plucked his ears, and said casually: "So, Chief He doesn't agree with my deal?"

He Yuan snorted coldly and said decisively: "It's absolutely impossible. I want to see if I don't sign this contract, how can Lord Changping do anything to me..."

Zheng!

He Yuan didn't finish speaking.

A clear sword cry suddenly sounded in the governor's mansion, and then a cold light flashed. The next second, He Yuan was seen covering his neck in pain, his eyes widened, and he gradually collapsed to the ground.

A large amount of blood flowed out from the fingers of both hands, and soon the area several feet around was dyed bright red.

Before death.

He Yuandu also stared at Mr. Mo with a pair of eyes full of disbelief.

It seemed that he never expected that Mr. Mo would actually dare to kill him in public.

The Sheriff's Mansion was quiet.

Following He Yuan's death, the atmosphere in the entire lobby suddenly became deathly silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Not to mention the group of large and small landowners and nobles below, even Chen Jinghui, who was standing next to Mr. Mo, opened his eyes in disbelief when he saw this scene.

"So much nonsense!"

Mo Jun glanced at He Yuan's body on the ground and said a few words.

Then he said to Xiong Da: "Since the He family is unwilling to trade with me, there is no need for the He family to exist."

"My subordinate understands!"

Xiong Da responded calmly.

The head of the He family, one of the strongest "Five Old Nobles" in Hanzhong, was killed here so simply, which had already caused a huge impact on everyone present.

And when Mr. Mo finished his words, all the landowners and nobles who were invited this time felt an icy chill running through their bodies.
