Zhu was a bit puzzled instead.

He looked at this Wu Tong.

Seems to have a bad impression of Zhang Anshi.

It is also full of nostalgia for his homeland.

But this man in front of me, he actually moved his family here.

All these contradictions are really mind-boggling.

So Zhu Di asked with a belly full of doubts, “Great chaos is coming, and the people are suffering?”

Wu Tong see Zhu Di a face of suspicion, but can not help but laugh bitterly: “It seems that brother Zhang is not understand the current situation ah, you know …… now this world, has long been a dry wood, just a spark, it will be a big fire?”

Zhu Zhu’s tiger shook.

Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, just forced a smile.

“Who did you hear that from?” Zhu Di said in a cold voice, but tried his best to contain his anger.

Wu Tong said, “Everyone is talking! When I was in Fuzhou, the local oracle talked about this matter, and …… there are many secret stories in the palace and the dynasty, this Zhang Anshi …… is really a mongrel, Zhang brother does not think about it, that Henan and Guanzhong, how many people have been killed, it is really a head rolling, blood flow into a river ……”

Wu Tong said and kept shaking his head, “There is also an article by a man called Lushan Idler, I wonder if Brother Zhang has ever read it?”

“Mount Lushan Idler?” Zhu raised his eyebrows, feeling impressed.

Zhang Anshi and also Lostha, both shook in their bodies.

This pile of Chin case, to Chen Deng as the leader of this group of people, is to play the name of Mount Lushan idle, or a mountain in the name of the people, write down a lot of articles, spreading around, leading to the people’s fear.

Yiluoha then whispered a few words in Zhu’s ear.

Chu: “……”

Zhu revealed an expression of dawning realization.

Immediately, Zhu Di then looked at Wu Tong said, “Although I have not read his article, but …… seem to have heard, just do not know what this Mount Lushan idler …… article said?”

Wu Tong eyes unconsciously through a few points of indignation, held his breath and said: “the people of the world, by Zhang Anshi and other people’s compulsion, has begun to be restless, can be described as stupid, this Zhang Anshi with the new policy to induce those who refused to be contented with the people to cultivate the land, to the extent that some have the will to earn their own living of the people, but also began to breed dissatisfaction with the rich households. ”

He said, the face of the indignation gradually turned into a bleak: “Looking at the world’s provinces, sooner or later …… is going to have a big change, when …… those unruly people …… also I do not know what will do, hey …… think I Wu Tong, a hundred years of family business, even when the world chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, this family’s foundation has not been shaken, but now …… even have to do this loss of family dog.”

Speaking of this, Wu Tong began to weep.

Zhu’s jaw dropped directly.

But Chen Deng, who was pinned in the corner, had a different look on his face.

Zhu said, “If that’s the case, then why did you bring your family here?”

Wu Tong smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: “How can you not come? If you know, the world is about to change, head to the ground, you still dare to stay in your hometown? Hey …… that Lushan idler’s article, I have read many, the more I read the more sense, this New Deal is really harmful, is to dig our roots, is to teach us to die without a burial place ah!”

Speaking here, his face showed a few points of sadness, and continued to murmur: “I, Wu, may not necessarily shoot to death, but …… I have a family and a business, dozens of people at home, can not just sit and wait for death, stay in my hometown, and be slaughtered and killed by others, right? I can not care about myself, but I can not not care about my family.”

Wu Tong hung down and wiped his tears.

Zhu Di felt justified, and there was really nothing wrong with this reasoning.

Just like him at the time, to be honest, if Zhu Yunzhu hadn’t pushed him so hard, even if it was just for him to be a rich and noble idler or a rich man, he wouldn’t have been able to tie the heads of his family to his own pants belt to fight for his life.

Zhang Anshi said coldly from the sidelines, “How pathetic.”

Chen Deng was on the side, but it was like being struck by lightning.

He froze in place, not saying a word, but his face was ugly!

For …… that Mount Lushan idler …… is his pseudonym, and many of his articles are sent out through the name of Mount Lushan idler, in order to argue that the New Deal is about to teach the world’s gentry and readers to become extinct.

He, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, relying on his high position in the temple, but in many of the palace and the dynasty’s secret news picked out to add oil and vinegar, in order to make the world alert to the dangers of the New Deal, at the same …… time for the anti-New Deal and build up strength.

In his opinion, the world’s gentry hundreds of thousands of people, mastering countless money and grain and fields, but also hold countless population, as long as everyone can be united, will make this new policy dead in the womb.

But ……

Wu Tong said at this time: “In Fuzhou, I daily read these articles, and heard some relatives and old friends talk about this matter every time, it is really five internal burning, can not sleep at night, every time in the middle of the night to wake up, is really miserable ……”

Chandon: “……”

With Chandon’s article, the effect is really achieved.

Just ……

Only to hear Wu Tong continued: “This is less than a few months of effort, I have felt worse than death, and then heard that the nearby townships have an old friend, but even moved his family to Zhili, I can no longer sit still, to stay in the townships, such as sitting on pins and needles general ah.”

Chen Deng was furious at this point and said in a cold voice, “So you came to Zhili?”

Wu Tong looked at the anger on his face and felt a bit puzzled, but still subconsciously said: ”If you don’t come to Zhili, where else in the world can you go? Go to the West? The hell of the Western Ocean, the soil and water, and to cross the ocean, but also heard that the feudal lords, is even more vicious, people go there, will become their cattle and horses.”

Wu Tong said, painfully, “Where else in the world can we find a place to live? It is said that people leave their hometowns, and my Wu family has a long history of family business, if it is not impossible to get a foothold, why do we still have to go out to avoid trouble?”

Zhu Di at this time, roughly seemed to understand a little something.

Call this ridiculous, it is.

But you want to say he’s unreasonable, it’s actually reasonable.

Zhu said, “Then why did you come here to Hezhou?”

Wu Tong then said: “Zhili here …… is, after all, the foot of the son of God, but also Zhang Anshi these thieves in this, the royal family and Zhang’s family business, as well as a number of Zhang Anshi collusion of merchants, their family business, all in this. So I heard people say, the world is in chaos, but not here. But to teach me to go to Yingtianfu, go to Qixia, but I refused. Qixia and the capital, really can not see, can not bear to see Zhang Anshi and his clique that rampant look. In addition, I heard that there, the wind is corrupt, everyone only talk about money and talk about profit, the world is corrupt.”

“Later, and heard people say, now the capital and Qixia, land prices are high, if you want to buy a mansion, spend a huge amount of money, my Wu family has a lot of people, really do not want to spend this unjust silver.”

After a pause, he went on to say: “On the contrary, this and the state, but also at the foot of the Son of Heaven, this place will not be a mess, and land prices are cheap, at least more than the capital and Qixia livable a lot, not to mention, His Royal Highness the grandson, although also subject to the compulsion of that Zhang Anshi, at least …… always be considered to be recruited at the beginning of the State Prison Sacrifice Zou seizure and so on! In the state, always also teach some peace of mind!”

Said here, he sighed quietly: “Hey …… In fact, at first, I can not bear to leave home, just around the family and friends of old friends, family migration more and more people, which only made up their minds, and so on, until here, only to know that …… this south of the sky and the north of the world. I don’t know how many people like me migrated here.”

Wu Tong said, revealing the color of mourning: “If it is not Zhang Anshi, we have fallen to this point, now …… is a township south back, had to buy property here, this life to live here …… ”

Chen Deng’s entire body was confused.

While Yang Rong and Hu Guang sat on the side, they looked at each other.

The logic of this makes sense when you think about it.

For Chen Deng, his constant dramatization of the horrors of Zhang Anshi and the devastation wrought by the New Deal was, in a way, actually a systematic selling of anxiety to the world’s gentry and the reading public.

The squires and the scholars are smart people, and smart people are prone to think a lot, plus this kind of public opinion rendering makes them sit on pins and needles, which is actually justifiable.

For Chen Deng and others, they think that after this, it is bound to trigger the vast momentum of the whole world against the New Deal, and then they quietly in the dynasty, with the assistance of the scholars and scholars in all parts of the world, through which they constantly fight the New Deal, perhaps …… really stop the spread of the New Deal.

But they thought wrong.

Because for the gentry like Wu Tong, of course they are afraid, but what comes after the fear?

They are people with families and businesses, Henan and Guanzhong have already killed a number of them, and His Majesty is a man who kills indiscriminately, and the local people, who are attracted and enlisted by Zhang Anshi’s new policy, reading Chen Deng and the others again every day is simply a kind of torment.

And so …… they subconsciously, they go looking for a safe place to stay.

It is impossible to expect them to take up arms and fight back in the same way as the people who cannot survive.

Because they can’t afford to gamble on the consequences of that loss!

What they want is to continue to maintain their brocade life, and at this time …… and the state side, is opening a mouth for them, they naturally, and flocked to it.

Zhu Di felt that these words of Wu Tong’s were just too much of an afterthought, and then, he glanced around this wine shop.

This place, still bustling, although it is night, or bright lights, in such a prosperous place, Zhu Di also a little digestive.

Just then, a large number of carriages and horses suddenly came from outside.

Immediately after, someone excitedly shouted, “Quickly …… protect this wine shop ……”

The drinkers sensed that something was wrong, and one by one, they looked around, subconsciously with a few moments of nervousness on their faces.

But see at this time, this restaurant outside, but there is a young man, leading this and the state up and down the civil and military officials hurriedly came.

The young man at the head of the group was none other than Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji anxiously balked around and finally saw Zhu Di.

The eyes in his eyes suddenly bright, busy is to come forward, pay homage: “Sun鑷f湵鐬诲熀锛岃杩囩殗鐖风埛锛岀殗 grandfather …… How did you suddenly come?”

The moment these words came out, the wine shop was suddenly silent.

Sitting opposite Zhu Di, Wu Tong, is like seeing a ghost, eyes wide open, people have been scared to paralyze.

I only saw his body staggering, but he was assisted by someone, but it was Zhang Anshi who assisted him and said, “Be careful, but don’t fall and break.”

Wu Tong then slightly fixed his mind, gratefully glanced at Zhang Anshi, and, as a reflex, softly said, “Many thanks to the virtuous brother, virtuous brother honorable name …….”

Zhang Anshi’s young and handsome face gave off a very affable feeling, and at this moment, he naively said, “My name is Zhang Anshi, don’t get me wrong, I’m the real Zhang Anshi.”

When Wu Tong heard this, his entire body froze for a moment, and his mind, which had only settled down with great difficulty, suddenly began to be disorganized again.

His body began to wobble, his eyes began to roll upward, his head tilted back, and his legs twitched.

Zhang Anshi immediately hugged him and shouted in a low voice, “Come on people, hurry up and have someone carry him away, he can’t be stimulated anymore.”

A few forbidden guards had a speechless look on their faces and hurriedly carried the person away from the matter.

Although he had experienced this small episode, the wine shop was quickly quieted down.

All of them did not utter a word, and the drinkers who had been clamoring just a moment ago were now all afraid to utter a single breath.

Other people how, at this time Zhu Di can not care, his eyes, but only Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji’s head, a lot taller, his face in good spirits.

Zhu Di saw Zhu Zhanji start, the party of those unpleasant like temporarily disappeared, he went forward, a hand Zhu Zhanji help up, pleasantly said, “Zhanji ah, can you miss the royal grandfather?”

Zhu Zhanji also smiled and said: ”Sunchen is in Hezhou, and there is not a single day that he does not miss his imperial grandfather. Royal grandfather, how …… do you set up a car to come here, but also do not say hello? Grandson so that he can go to welcome the driver.”

Zhu Di looked at him kindly and said, “I came here just to take a look, to see you, to see this Hezhou, you ah, New Year’s Day, but also refused to come back to the capital to see the driving.”

Zhu Zhanji then revealed a few apologies, said: “Sun’er also misses his royal grandfather. Just grandchildren here, busy very it, this thousand things, all need grandchildren to make decisions.”

“A thousand heads?” Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji with a joyful smile.

Zhu Zhanji said, “Yes, not to mention the other, alone this half a year or so, and the state has migrated to a million people, grandson’s side, if you can’t try to resettle it, but it’s going to be a mess.”

“A million people?” Zhu Di’s face changed slightly, and he was astonished in his heart.

Although I know that many people moved in, but this million people, but really let Zhu Di shocked.

Where to such a large population? This and the state, in fact, but the size of a county, which is only a hundred years of time, so that this little one and the state, although less than the capital and Qixia, but also definitely counted as the third largest city of Zhili.

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said: “At first, the migration to the …… is only a few tens of thousands of households, are some gentry families, but they …… are mostly dragging their families, supporting the old and the young, the royal grandfather is aware of, this and other The rich households, not ordinary people’s homes, ordinary people, a household but a few mouths, and then more, but only a dozen mouths, but they, but often dozens of people, more, hundreds of mouths also have. In this way, there are hundreds of thousands of people.”

Zhu Zhanji spoke eloquently, looked excited look, continued: “These people settled, this and state, can be very different, do not look at them only tens of thousands of households, hundreds of thousands of people, but do not know, these people …… are very solid, women want to use good rouge powder, men need a lot of carriages and horses! In short, this clothing, food, housing and transportation, a year down the expenses, is the ordinary family ten times a hundred times. Royal grandfather you think about …… say this wine shop, the ordinary people, all year round, give people to do labor, may not be able to such a wine shop to eat a few meals of wine. But for these rich families, they go in and out of this wine shop, but like a regular meal.”

“Because of this, many merchants, all of a sudden saw the business opportunities, the royal grandfather can not underestimate the spending power of these people, like this restaurant, and the state there are hundreds of, and almost every day can be full, the supply does not meet the demand, there are all kinds of silk, ink, paper and ink stone, all kinds of jewelry, rouge and powder …… this! Merchants to do what trade, can earn a pot full of money. Thus …… many merchants, also took the opportunity to influx, crazy like to recruit manpower, this dock on the foot force, store in the fellows, responsible for the purchase of brokers, not to mention the other, alone this cook, the whole and the state on the need to hire thousands of people, and because of this rich people south and north of the world, tastes are different, single this I do not know how many people to feed. ”

“Because of this, now the price of labor in Hezhou, even not in the capital and Qixia below, the imperial master you think about it, this successive influx of people …… can still be less? This is at least another 200,000 households. This before and after, say it is a million …… are considered less.”

Zhu Di seriously listen to the end, straight to listen to the dumbfounded, but think of what I saw along the way, but also really not false words, immediately said: “How do you place?”

As the Hello Emperor, he was naturally happy about this, except that Zhu Di was now both shocked and curious!

“This is something that A-Uncle has long anticipated.” Zhu Zhanji glanced at Zhang Anshi, and complacently continued, “A-Uncle told his grandson at first that we had met a nobleman.”

“Noble …… man,” Zhu Di was full of suspicion.

“Oh ……” Zhu Zhanji said, “It’s those …… people who secretly write articles… …Aunty said …… with the help of these noble people, Aunty and grandson, can be considered to have picked up the treasure.”

Also lost ha on the side of a stunned, eyes flashed a flash of complex color, could not help but say: “His Royal Highness said those nobles, always will not be just captured Chin prisoner, write around, demonic words of the Ministry of Rites Minister Chen Deng people and so on it.”

Zhu Zhanji regretfully said, “What, they have been taken down? Ah …… this …… good end, how to take people down. Their articles are written so well, even if they are demonic words, they can still be so compelling, Royal Grandpa, they are grandchildren’s noble people.”

Chen Deng was on the sidelines, his face became more and more ugly, in fact, he vaguely already felt that something was wrong.

But now after hearing this, the original heart to kill the body, has long been gone, only an indescribable shame.

Every word Zhu Zhanji said was as if someone had stabbed him in the heart with a dagger.

Not waiting for him to get over it, then he heard Zhu Zhanji say: “It’s really thanks to these honorable people, otherwise how could we have today? Hezhou can have today, the new policy can be a thousand miles a day, they are greatly to blame!”

The four words “to his credit” exit.

Chen Deng’s sudden face went white, only to feel a sweetness in his throat, followed by subconsciously spitting out the fishy odor in his mouth, a mouthful of bloody phlegm sprayed out.
