PS: another chapter will be at 11:30. You can go to bed early and read it tomorrow.

"Emperor, Tong Hongchang and other Wei local tyrants have been waiting outside Xingyuan for a long time. Do you want to announce them to come in now?"

Qian Dafu's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

When Xiao Ming came back to himself, he thought of meeting Wei Dihao.

When he came back from Jinling City in Fiji, he took these aristocrats to Qingzhou. It was only because of the grand ceremony that he put them aside.

After all, the more Xiao Ming disappeared, the more uneasy they were.

"Tell them to wait in the main hall." Xiao Ming frowned.

According to the information provided by Wang Xuan, these aristocrats are the actual managers of the States and counties. If they want to collect taxes normally, they have to rely on them.

In his opinion, for a long time, he still had to rely on these people to collect taxes.

"Yes, Emperor."

When Qian Dafu left, Xiao Ming stretched himself. He is not very tired these days, but he is a little annoyed. After all, there are more and more counties under his rule, and there are all kinds of things.

After criticizing a few folds in his study, Xiao Ming went to the main hall to show the imperial power.

Long live the emperor

Seeing that Xiao Ming entered the main hall, the powerful family headed by Tong Hongchang immediately stood up and bowed to Xiao Ming.

At this time, Wei Dihao families were divided into two sides. Xiao Ming passed through the middle, glanced at them one by one, and sat on the throne. He said, "you are welcome. Sit down."

Only then did Tong Hongchang dare to look up at Xiao Ming. According to their understanding, Xiao Ming is only 23 years old now.

Before they came, they thought Xiao Ming was a fierce man. Now they know that he is a handsome man with a strong face.

"How dare we sit in the same room with the emperor?" Tong Hongchang still stood and did not dare to sit down. At this time, their palms were sweating nervously.

People in front of them are in charge of the future rise and fall of their family.

With a faint smile on his lips, Xiao Ming said, "this must be the Tong's family in Jinling City."

Tong Hongchang was named, his heart is afraid and excited, he said: "the emperor, the grass people is Tong Hongchang, the head of the Tong family, but the Tong family and Zhangjia have not been separated, hope the emperor to see."

"Mr. Feige has told me that all of you who come to Qingzhou this time are noble families who are willing to work for me. This tax is also dependent on your help."

"This is what we should do. It's our honor to serve the emperor." A group of Haozu said in unison.

Xiao Ming smiles when he hears the speech. He says, "I can rest assured, but you can also rest assured that as long as you are willing to work for me and abide by the law in your respective counties and prefectures, you will be able to live a comfortable life. As for the rumors outside that I will kill all the powerful people, they are slanders. Don't be distracted."

Tong Hongchang's forehead is sweating slightly. Xiao Ming seems to have nothing wrong with this. He's just comforting them, but he has a needle in his pocket.

On the other hand, if they don't work for the royal family and don't abide by the law, they will be killed.

There was a slight shiver in his calf. Tong Hongchang said, "we must remember the emperor's instruction."

Xiao Ming said what he had to say, so he asked, "what do you think of living in Qingzhou these days?"

"The prosperity of Qingzhou's business and the prosperity of the people are rare in the world. There are many new things that have opened our eyes. This trip to Qingzhou is worth it."

A rich family said.

"Emperor, we are willing to disband the trilogy, but we don't know if we can do business. After all, the family is prosperous, and we have to starve to death without work." A rich family took the opportunity to say.

Tong Hongchang deeply thinks that in order to protect his life, they disbanded the powerful family and handed over the occupied land. In their opinion, only business can continue the prosperity of the family.

This idea became more and more intense after they came to Qingzhou, because they found that Qingzhou merchants had a high status and would not be bullied by officials.

Many wealthy businessmen have extremely luxurious homes, and buy a large number of slaves to serve themselves, and their lives are better than those of these rich families. How can they not be moved.

The essence of Xiao Ming's governance is to prosper the country through commerce. Only the prosperity of private capital can make the people rich. After all, this is a truth that has been tested for hundreds of years.

Therefore, Xiao Ming not only did not oppose the business of the rich, but even encouraged them to do business. Now it has been proved that the people of Dayu are still lack of interest in business, and few farmers can give up their land to enter factories and do business.

The poison of small-scale farmers' thinking can not be changed in a day or two. The most important thing is that they have no funds. After all, not everyone has the courage to mortgage their land to banks for business.

Even there have been a lot of criticisms against Xiao Ming's policy among the people. Some people have criticized the government for annexing land through this matter.Xiao Ming was a little surprised by this, but it's reasonable to think about it. He overemphasized the thoughts of the people in this era. Some things have to be completed before they can lead to radical changes.

As for the policy, he formulated it and publicized it. The rest can only be left to the people themselves.

In Xiao Ming's opinion, not everyone is business material. If a large number of people fail in business blindly, the government will have to carry the black pot.

So relatively speaking, they are more active in business, because almost all of them have been involved in business, and they have abundant capital. Even if they fail, they are just looking for other business opportunities.

At the same time, through reading the information in the science and Technology Library, Xiao Ming gradually understood that when the feudal system collapsed and went to capitalism, the aristocracy was the first to benefit, that is, social change was basically carried out in a top-down situation.

Now Qingzhou is in the same situation. In any case, the common people can't compete with the traditional big businessmen. The big businessmen eat meat, but the common people can only drink some soup.

After the powerful people like Princess Taiping turned to commercial trade, they had more advantages than big businessmen.

For Xiao Ming, the water of Qingzhou business is muddy. He doesn't mind that the rich come in again to share part of the profits, because if there are more people to share, he can avoid the dominance of one family.

Otherwise, it won't be long before there will be super businessmen in Qingzhou, which he is not happy to see. So he said, "of course, I always encourage business and trade."

Tong Hongchang and others were overjoyed when they heard that the prosperity of Qingzhou business had made them ready to move these days. Now they can finally boldly do business with Qingzhou businessmen.

At the same time, he bowed himself and said, "thank you for your kindness."
