Chapter 1488

At least Changning City, the capital of hengguo, has no problem.

At the same time, Wang Kang stepped up his efforts to deal with the aristocrats in Changning City. At that time, he retreated, only some of the aristocratic families, while the middle and small aristocrats and the imperial class did not leave.

How to deal with these people is also the key.

According to Wang Kang's first plan, it was to kill all the family members.

He is not a virgin. War requires military expenditure. It is also an established strategy to support war with war.

In Changning City, there are many aristocrats. After all, they are the capital of hengguo.

In the past few days, we have killed batch after batch, and we have copied a lot of property.

This also made these nobles scared to the extreme.

Today, Wang Kang has nothing to do. He also comes to a mansion. The male owner of the house is Xiang Wen. He is just a little nobleman. His title is just the lowest Lord. But because of his surname, he has a very high status.

In the state of Chu, the surname Xiang is the most important. No matter what your status is, as long as you have this surname, you will be different.

Xiang Wen is like this.

In this mansion, there are many noble officials like Xiang Wen.

The families of these people have been seized, and they are all locked up here, under strict supervision, waiting for the release.

"Well, they're still alive?"

Wang Kang asked the person in charge here, a 2000 person named Bai Hong.

"It's OK, but I'm shouting to see you."

"OK, show me."

Under the guidance of Bai Hong, Wang Kang came to a courtyard, where Xiang Wen was imprisoned. It was his mansion, but now it only occupied one courtyard.

"I want to see the king of war, I want to see the king of war!"

As soon as I got near the gate of the courtyard, I heard someone shouting.

"What are you shouting about, the marshal is coming!"

Bai Hong said, "this man is Xiang Wen. They call you king of war."

Wang Kang went into the courtyard and looked at the man in front of him.

He was about the same age as Xiang Tai. At the moment, he saw Wang Kang slightly stunned, and then knelt down directly.

"King of war, please let me live. Don't kill me. I'm a little Lord. I'm not worthy of being a model. If you can be kind to ordinary people, can't you be kind to me?"

Xiang Wen has a straw to save his life.

"Little Lord?"

Wang Kang raised his eyebrows and said, "you, the Lord, have accumulated more wealth than the viscount or the count."

What he said was the truth. He was surprised by the wealth of this man when he was making a house purchase. The accumulation of a Lord was even more than that of those in-service senior officials.

"It's yours. It's all yours."

Xiang Wen was busy saying: "I donate for free, as your military expenditure to save the people..."

This man is very interesting.

Wang Kang looked at him with small eyes, revealing his shrewdness.

He seemed to know what he was going to do.

"Well, I'll give you a chance to live, but you have to convince me, why should I keep your life?"

Wang Kang is very interested.

As soon as Xiang Wen's eyes brightened, he busily said, "I take refuge in you. I sincerely take refuge in you..."

"A lot of people want to take refuge in me, and a lot of people like you."

"I have not oppressed the city people."

Xiang Wen said, "although I am a noble, I am a noble with conscience."

"Oh?"

Wang Kang asked with a smile: "you have not oppressed the people. Where did your wealth come from?"

"Business!"

Xiang Wen explained: "I buy the best silk, tea, etc. from the state of Zhao, as well as all kinds of Fuyang family products, and then sell them to the nobles of Chu at a high price. The profit margin is quite high. I don't have to bully the common people. What I earn is the money of the nobles..."

"I know you. I have known you for a long time. You are the young master of Fuyang family. But the goods of Fuyang chamber of commerce are strictly controlled. I can only get goods from the second seller. They are very expensive!"

"But it can be sold, at least three times as much!"

This guy is very excited about this. He seems to have forgotten his situation for a while.

Wang Kang also understood.

This article is like a smuggler.

The special political system of Chu also resulted in the closeness of the country, which made the foreign trade closed.

Most of the domestic business activities are controlled by Yulong chamber of Commerce, one of the three largest chambers of Commerce in mainland China.

For example, the border between Zhao and Chu has always been tense. Both Zhao and Chu are heavily fortified. The trade routes are blocked, and commodity exchange is difficult to develop.

And Xiang Wen did it.

He is just a lord, but because of this surname, he is in many ways like a duck to water, with convenience.This is a talent.

Wang Kang made a decision. He has his own bright spot.

"That's not enough..."

"You need me!"

"No, to be exact, you need people like me!"

Xiang Wen blurted out.

"What's the answer?"

Wang Kang became more and more interested.

Xiang Wen explained, "I know what you think and what your plot is. You want to use public opinion to overthrow the state of Chu."

"But there are still many nobles in the state of Chu, and these nobles hold a lot of wealth and strength, which is a great resistance for you, and I can solve this problem for you, which nobles can be wooed and which nobles must be killed."

"You can't knock over a boat with one stroke!"

Xiang Wen went on: "most of the resources of this country are in the hands of the upper nobility. I think you can understand what I mean..."

After that, he looked at Wang Kang nervously and added.

"Moreover, there are many things that I can do more effectively than you can..."

"Interesting."

Wang Kang became more and more interested.

This man could see the two routes he was going to take.

He's right.

Different solutions are needed to deal with different problems.

The following wars were all carried out within the state of Chu, and he also needed someone who was really familiar with it.

"You are Xiang. How can I trust you?"

Wang Kang asked a key question.

Xiang Wen said: "the Xiang family name is the largest in the state of Chu, but only a few people are really in power. There are many people like me, which are already branches of branches. I only have a family name, but I have no blood!"

"So I don't have a great sense of belonging to this surname, nor to this country. You must believe me that in order to survive, people will break through the bottom line."

"What you've got in front of you is all rubbish. Only the last sentence has convinced me."

Wang Kang said, "you are right. As long as you can survive, nothing matters."

"Well, I'll keep you alive for a while, but whether you can really survive depends on your ability, more on your loyalty!"

"King Xie, King Xie."

"Don't worry, thank you. I'll give you a task first."

Wang Kang said: "in this mansion, there are many nobles like you. They are all handed over to you. It's up to you to decide whether to kill or stay..."
