Chapter 37 Why are there still people stealing public grain?

Chu Shizhao's attention has been completely focused on local operations and construction.

In the last simulation, strictly speaking, Chu Shizhao was initially a subordinate of Li Jin and did not have any additional power to manage the territory.

The territory of Jinyang is still controlled by Li Jin.

It was by taking down Fan Yang, where Ma Su'an had rebelled, that he officially won the opportunity to rise and gained the power to manage the local area.

Not having a basic base and having a basic base are two completely different things.

Why did Huan Jie come to the capital? It was obvious that a union with Chu Shizhao could bring the greatest political benefits, but the result was contrary to the original idea. The fundamental reason was that the status of both parties was not equal.

The dominant positions and power are not equal.

Chu Shizhao could not achieve what Huanjie needed in the short term, because the gap in strength between the two sides had reached the point where Chu Shizhao had to rely on the other party's strength if he wanted to obtain the throne.

Moreover, due to the conflicts and conflicts of interest between people from Liangzhou and Guanzhong, it was difficult for Huan Jie to trust that Chu Shizhao could fully trust the generals from Liangzhou.

Li Jin's situation was obviously special. He had previously received favors from Emperor Zhengguang, and Chu Shizhao had stayed in Jinyang for two or three years. Through Li Fengning's relationship, he gradually emerged in the army. In addition, Li Fengning was Li Jin's eldest daughter, so the trust relationship between the two sides was at a higher level.

What's more, different people have quite different personalities.

Li Jin is still loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But from Huan Jie's perspective, he fought hard in Liangzhou and guarded the border, all by relying on his own abilities, and became the governor, but he did not receive any favors from you, the Emperor of the Great Zhou.

What's more, your Great Zhou Emperor was beaten by the Huns in Chang'an, and I sent troops to rescue you. Now after entering the capital, you are still being provoked and trampled on by the people of Guanzhong, and the rewards and punishments are unclear. Why should I take the risk of offending my own soldiers and continue to be a dog for you, the people of Guanzhong?

Therefore, Chu Shizhao did not have much resentment towards Huan Jie.

Everyone just has a different stance.

In fact, Chu Shizhao regretted more that he failed to recruit the brave and warlike Liangzhou Legion under his command. This was one of the few armies in the Zhou Dynasty that could fight the Huns head-on.

[On March 7, the first year of Guangwei, you have a good reputation in the area you govern, and have made outstanding achievements. You have corrected the wrongdoings of the noble families in Lu County, and sought justice for the people in many places, thus winning the hearts of the people.]

[The people of Lu County have become more supportive of you. ]

[The attitude of the great families in Lu County towards you has declined. ]

[In April of the first year of Guangwei, within just four months, Lu County has become prosperous. You have won over the local tyrants who are eager to get more promotions.]

[After four months of management, the public sentiment of Lu County has increased from 61 points to 81 points. ]

[Huan Sheng is deeply involved in agriculture. After discussing with you, he believes that there is unrest in various places right now, and that we should start farming as soon as possible to prepare for any emergency.]

[Lu County's agricultural development increased from 12 points to 29 points. ]

[Huan Sheng was not proficient in agriculture, but in order to better develop the local area, he personally went to the countryside and consulted the people of Lu County. ]

[This increases his internal affairs ability by 3 points. ]

[In May of the first year of Guangwei, Master Yan Huai felt that since you took over Lu County, although you have implemented many policies that are not conducive to the rule of aristocratic families, such measures are actually more enterprising and beneficial to the country.]

【Master Yan Huai and the Yan family have decided to support your rule in Lu County.】

[Congratulations on unlocking a new political party faction - Linyi Yan's. 】

[Many of the great families in Lu County could not understand what the Yan family did. They deeply hated Chu Shizhao's practice of cutting flesh from them to please the common tenants.]

Even though the Great Zhou Dynasty was not any dynasty that Chu Shizhao was familiar with in history, the origins of many people still had a basis.

When Chu Shizhao put the words "Linyi Yan Family" together, he remembered what Wen Tianxiang said - "For the head of General Yan, for the blood of Minister Ji, for the teeth of Zhang Sui Yang, for the tongue of Yan Changshan." Yan Changshan here refers to Yan Gaoqing, the one who swore to die rather than serve An Lushan during the An-Shi Rebellion and eventually had his tongue hooked off, but he still unyieldingly cursed the other party.

Yan Gaoqing's ancestral home is Linyi.

[In June of the first year of Guangwei, a rebellion broke out in Lu County. The aristocratic families headed by the Chen family believed that you were protecting treacherous people and bullying talented people. Many government offices were unwilling to obey your orders. The local aristocratic families privately recruited soldiers and used their hidden households and slaves as soldiers.]

[They did not accept Chu Shizhao's call, rejected the policies implemented by Chu Shizhao, and resolutely resisted the soldiers and officials sent by Chu Shizhao.]

[There are ten counties in your jurisdiction, namely Xiaqiu, Rencheng, Zou, Qufu, Sishui, Pinglu, Gongqiu, Liangfu, Bocheng, and Ying.]

[Seven of these counties have seen rebellions led by local aristocratic families, which has greatly affected your rule.]

[You won the hearts of the people, which allowed you to temporarily recruit 10239 soldiers from Lu County to join the army. Most of them were willing to trust you.]

[Due to your benevolent administration in Lu County, the people's livelihood has been greatly improved since you took over Lu County, and most of them can have food to eat. You have issued an order to order the noble families to return the occupied land, which is also in the eyes of the people of Lu County. ]

[You obviously lost control of seven counties in Lu County, but you gained the vision of the entire Lu County through your 81 points of public support. The local people informed you of the military strength, deployment, and even food routes of the aristocratic families.]

[There are also some so-called militiamen who were forcibly recruited by the big families, and they fled from the places controlled by these big families and surrendered to you.]

[They believed that with the ability of the King of Jin, he could protect them from being bullied by these aristocratic families.]

[In July of the first year of Guangwei, you dispatched the newly recruited Lu County soldiers to counterattack the rebellious county town. In just three days, you recovered three cities. Wherever you went, most of the people opened their cities and surrendered, unwilling to be your enemy.]

[You have already won the support of the people in Lu County. ]

[Those aristocratic families who guarded the county were therefore completely unable to establish effective rule. ]

[In August of the first year of Guangwei, all the noble families that started the rebellion in Lu County were pacified. They tried to surrender to you and expressed their willingness to serve you.]

Huan Sheng thought that although these aristocratic families had rebelled, they could be accepted to govern the people at a time when there was a shortage of talented people.

【You rejected Huansheng's proposal. 】

[In your opinion, the suppression of this rebellion is absolutely related to the help of the people. If there were no spontaneous actions of the people to provide help, how could these rebellious actions be easily disintegrated? ]

[And now, just because these rebels see that the situation is not right and are willing to surrender, they are allowed to gain power to manage the civilians who helped them before. How can this be justified in the world? ]

[It is ridiculous that people who have made mistakes can manage and rule those who have not made mistakes just because they have talents and are willing to surrender! ]

[You executed all the noble families who participated in the rebellion in front of the people of Lu County. Overnight, as many as 30,000 people were implicated.]

[You have earned nearly 419 million taels of silver.]

[You have completely ruled Lu County. Now no one in Lu County can oppose your policies. You have taken the land vacated by these aristocratic families and put it into public use to implement the military farming system.]

[The income from farming and the harvest will be shared with the state.]

[When the common people use official cattle, the officials share 6 and the common people share 4; when the common people use private cattle, the officials and the common people share 50% and 50% respectively.]

[In September of the first year of Guangwei, due to your hard work day and night, your physical condition has declined and your energy is somewhat insufficient.]

On the other side of the screen, a lot of information that Chu Shizhao had previously ignored popped up in his interface.
