Chen Ji was indeed giving play to his residual heat, but it was completely different from the situation that Huangfusong said at the time that he wanted to die outside. In Chen Ji's words, he wanted to die outside only if he was sick. As a military commander, his abilities are more used to manage the rear. Huangfusong guessed that there was nothing wrong with his own thinking, but messing with the template of a general is not right.

"It's not good for you to say that. If I were a little fox, then the old Chen's family would become Qingqiu Mountain." Chen Xi said with a smile, but he didn't take Chen Ji's words seriously.

They are all millennial foxes, what are you talking about, and if they are all foxes, he, Chen Xi, may still be considered a fox of the Tu Shan family. Mrs. Hu, at least Chen Xi is white enough.

"Hahaha, Qingqiu Mountain is good. Foxes are smart creatures, and those with nine tails are even more auspicious beasts. What's wrong with that?" Chen Ji said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to pull out a wooden box from the side and threw it to Chen Xi, " I know roughly what you want, so I’ll just give it to you.”

"Well, sure enough, you have already prepared it." Chen Xi opened the wooden box, looked at the brocade books inside, and sighed, "Don't you think you are not tired from playing so much?"

"Then you said you don't want to play like this, what are you playing? Isn't it boring?" Chen Ji asked back, "It's not you, let alone this era, you can't get out, you can only suppress it internally."

"Next, I will take over all these causes and effects. The old Chen family may take the blame, so you should take care of it." Chen Xi looked at the list. Even if Jia Xu and Li You worked together, this kind of thing would not be able to be produced. Only Chen Xi There are only guys like Chen Ji who are members of the construction group themselves, and only guys like Chen Ji who have the power to sort out the entire country can sort it out.

"Who gave your surname Chen? Besides, isn't it normal for our old Chen family to take the blame?" Chen Ji said flatly. Anyway, there are enough black materials, and it doesn't matter if there are more. Others can really do it. Chen Xi was still pressing on it.

"Actually, I don't think you need to continue doing this now." After hesitating for a while, Chen Ji changed the subject and hinted.

"It's enough to finish this batch. The big families are too heavy-hearted. Let them use various means to migrate, and they will have to evacuate one-third of the domestic population." Chen Xi shook his head and said, " It’s too much, and it’s time to restrain yourself.”

The aristocratic family is too closely integrated with the Han Dynasty itself. To put it too far, the entire Three Kingdoms period can be said to be of commoner origin. There are only two people with recorded names and surnames. The other Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun are actually juniors. Landlord origin.

Practicing martial arts needs to be full, and practicing well requires eating meat. In that era, ordinary people even had problems eating meat, let alone eating meat.

This is to replace the school’s low-demanding line of family wealth with the training method of the six arts of a real gentleman. Small landlords can’t afford it, so civil servants don’t have a real commoner. God, or met the right teacher.

Therefore, even now, more than 70% of the official positions in the Han Dynasty are still monopolized by the aristocratic family. This is due to Chen Xi's mid- and lower-level generals and outstanding civilian students who have changed jobs over the years, otherwise the proportion will be even higher.

This is also the reason why many things cannot be checked, just like Wei's previous investigation of the source of materials, they were able to find out that the materials belonged to the Han Dynasty, but there were too many people changing hands, and they were constantly changing hands through collection and distribution, and most of them were normal. In the end, the products sent from different trade networks come from different places.

This kind of thing is actually impossible for ordinary people, so Wei Shi can lock the five big businessmen and officials with his brain, but it doesn't make any sense if he locks it, and it can't solve any problems.

Because there is no way to check, Mrs. Wu bought something from Mrs. Wei and sold it to Anxi through distribution and resale. Can you be sure that this is what Mrs. Wu did, or someone else?

Even if you think about it more deeply, couldn't these weapons and equipment be sold by Wei Shi himself through the business network? Even this kind of possibility is more realistic, and it can also hide Wei Xiang better. Is it possible to make two preparations and place two chess pieces, one yin and one yang!

Therefore, there is no way to check at all, but it must be the five major merchants and the official, but who is the exact one, unless the other party clearly exchanges the covenant, otherwise, the previous exchange is really unbelievable. Wu's thinking is too simple. Before the covenant, the Wei family still couldn't believe it.

The same situation that Chen Xi encounters now is also the same. He has a good idea of ​​the families who stole people from the Central Plains. Even though Chen Ji is so quick to hand over things to Chen Xi, the Chen family let Yuan take the blame and steal people secretly. It's not like things didn't happen.

These old guys are not very good people, Chen Xi came here in person just to show that I can't take it anymore, if you continue messing around, I will really deal with you.

Moving to the west is a very complicated journey, but the methods of the major families have accomplished this impossible thing very well, so good that even if Chen Xi had estimated it before, he never thought that these guys could actually do it. and so on.

Burning land deed documents to win people's hearts is the first step, and then taking advantage of the people's sphere of influence in their own sphere of influence to persuade them to create a better life with themselves, and even secretly bribe those sages and elders to fool these people on the road.

After that, it will be simple. The chariot and horse dealers will buy chariots and horses, and send them all the way to Chang'an from the local county road. Ordinary people who have been out of their hometown are born to move, and travel is still very happy.

In this way, these people naturally lost their mentality of resistance, and then seized the time to drive to the northwest, soared all the way out of Yumen Pass, and then headed towards the Western Regions, got off the car and started to adjust on foot. Back on track.

He could only half push and half give up, cursing and continuing westward with the major families.

Chen Xi agrees with this set of procedures, and it is precisely because of this method that the people of the Han Dynasty who were almost impossible to leave their homeland were kidnapped to the frame of the empire and started the Western Expedition, which also made the seeds of Han culture go crazy spread across the Eurasian continent.

It can be said that this is the method that Chen Xi has always agreed with before, but now Chen Xi has discovered a problem. After the major families have moved the people who are willing to follow in their own spheres of influence, they have begun to fool the people in other places, and many officials are very angry about this. Open the door of convenience.

Chen Xi didn't understand why at first, but when he came to inspect it himself, he finally understood that these officials were actually trumpets of the big families, and they were essentially working for their own families, so of course they worked hard.

What's more, it's very difficult for Chen Xi to manage this kind of thing, and it's actually very difficult to restrain it. If a government order goes on, it's very likely that the two sides will directly confront each other. It's better to be simpler, just get the list in hand, and then have a good talk, too. It's not good to be greedy.

"The biggest ones are those ten things, right?" Chen Xi raised his head and asked Chen Ji after glancing at the brocade book.

"But even if you know about those ten things, there's nothing you can do about it?" Chen Ji stroked his beard and smiled complacently, "These are actually very dirty methods, but face can't be taken for granted. It’s shameless to think about saving face in the present, but not in the future.”

"You know it well!" Chen Xi said angrily, "Well, I can pretend that you didn't see the arrangement in Anxi, but don't go too far, I will adjust a group of official positions next, and after that If you continue to be as unscrupulous as before, don't blame me, although each of you uses his own means, but I still want to save face."

"All right, all right, your face, Chen Zichuan, is the most valuable." Chen Ji scolded with a smile.

Chen Ji is very clear about which families are currently transferring population in the Han Dynasty, but these families have no way to check on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is meaningless to check. These people are really voluntary, and the major families have actually arrested Taking into account Chen Xi's weakness, that is, what the common people do voluntarily, unless there is something really wrong with it, Chen Xi actually doesn't care much about it.

But is there anything wrong with moving west? No, in comparison, the current standard of living in the Central Plains is actually not much different from that of the people who moved westward.

After all, there is not a big difference in living standards between a person on a 50-acre field and a person on a 500-acre field. After all, the comparison between eating, drinking, and having fun is not about the eating, drinking, and having fun, but the style. The back is the big head.

Coupled with Chen Xi's adjustments to the social environment, there will not be a big difference in material conditions between moving west and living in the Central Plains.

If we really want to talk about the gap, we can only say that those people who move westward in the future will have more advantages in the promotion channel. After all, the major families are not fools, and they can still distinguish between foreign people and their own people. , why choose foreigners?

Therefore, those people who moved westward in the future will be more likely to succeed than those in the Central Plains. Chen Xi has nothing to say about this point. After all, those people who moved westward also took risks. It doesn't look big, but in the eyes of the people of this era, it is really huge.

"For the Chen family, don't make troubles in the Western Regions and Anxi. I'll turn a blind eye, that idiot Sima Boda will provide you with a protective umbrella, stop it." Chen Xi sighed and said, the most difficult thing It's these guys who are in charge, stepping on the line.

"No. If it's there, where will the population that our family finally recruited be placed?" Chen Ji pretended to be confused, "It's not the time for Beigui yet."
