Chapter 799 Only those who are useful can live

After talking for a long time, Li Xiang finally mentioned Xiao Shouguo's position, which was to be the governor of Mianzhou.

When he heard about this position, Xiao Yu's eyes lit up. Although this grandson passed the provincial examination, it may not be easy to get to this position. Of course, if the descendants of the aristocratic family work hard, they will get to this position. It's not that there is no position, it's just that the strength is too much. Now Li Xiang's words have saved nearly ten years of time.

In total, this favor is not small, but Xiao Yu also understands that Mianzhou has been severely harmed. Although it is said to be a state, its actual population is not even a county in a wealthy area.

After announcing the appointment, Li Xiang didn't stay here too long. The rest was between you two. Li Xiang chose to let the descendants of the Xiao family do this because of Xiao Yu. Knowing how to hand it over to these people can save Li Xiang a lot of trouble. If he trains officials himself, he doesn't know how long he will train them. This old man is very capable.

"Grandpa, this is too high a starting point. My grandson is afraid that he will not be qualified."

Hearing Xiao Shouguo's words, Xiao Yu raised the corner of his mouth. As long as his grandson has this kind of fear, there will be no problem. What he fears most is arrogance. He feels that since he was born in a noble family, any position does not matter. If this is really the case, even if Li Xiang approves Xiao Yu, he will never be able to let Xiao Shouguo take office. By then, it will not only be his people who will be lost, but also the entire Lanling Xiao family.

"As long as you have a reverent heart and ask for more instructions and inquiries when the time comes, then the errands will be done well. Don't make the decision yourself. When you encounter something, ask the master assigned to you at home."

Xiao Yu looked at his grandson kindly. Now that the two grandsons have come out, the remaining juniors can also go out step by step. Of course, those people may not be able to count on him, but the two in the family The eldest brother has already come out, are the younger ones still worried?

"Mianzhou Sun'er has learned that there is only a lack of population and serious land annexation, but if you can farm with peace of mind, there is no problem in ensuring local usage. If you can have enough manpower, then you can reclaim the land, although it is ultimately impossible. It will become a prosperous place, but it will never be the same as it is now.”

While grandpa is fine now, Xiao Shouguo has to tell everything he knows, and then tentatively state his policy. If there are major problems, grandpa can correct them on the spot. If not, Xiao Shouguo can It’s up to you to research the problem yourself.

"It's impossible for you to get support from other places. Then you have to find a way on your own. As far as I know, the local population has been reduced by half. This is all because of those corrupt officials who are such bastards. Your This plan is good, as long as it can solve the problem of manpower, then your place will surely prosper."

When talking about these corrupt officials, Xiao Yu was also very angry. Although it had little to do with him, when he thought of the bones on the roadside, Xiao Yu also wanted to crush those people into ashes, but if there were not those bastards, his family would How can these children have a suitable position?

While the grandfather and grandson were discussing the problem, the whole of Chengdu was arresting people, and many people were still thinking of running out, but Li Xiang had already given the order. If you were to let you run out, wouldn't it be a waste of time for us people? ? There was only one house that was relatively quiet, and that was Zhang Jiuli's house.

At this moment, Zhang Jiuli was in the yard of his home. Hearing the shouts of killing coming from outside, his hands were shaking uncontrollably. If he was to be the biggest embezzler, then he must be him.

According to Li Xiang's previous character, he must have killed this guy first, but now Li Xiang has not done so, mainly because this guy is still useful. After cleaning up this place, the next step is to get to those toasts in the mountains. My Lord, this guy has a good relationship with the toast master. If we arrest him like this, it will be too easy for him.

"Master, master..."

Just as the guy stood trembling, the concierge at the door ran over loudly. Zhang Jiuli was startled, had he finally arrived at his home?

When Li Xiang came to Chengdu, he knew that something was not easy to handle, so he asked his family to prepare to escape to other places that afternoon. Who knew that before they could take action, the entire mansion was surrounded? , although no one from the outside came in, it is not easy for the people inside to get out. No matter if he shows his badge or beats and curses others, the guards outside will not care about him. Anyway, as long as you stay in the yard inside, we will Will not invade you.

For more than half a month, people were being arrested everywhere outside. Only their home was quiet, but that didn't mean that everyone could live in peace. Their hearts were always hanging in their throats, and the greedy people at home were They knew how much money they had paid, and it was impossible for a person like Li Xiang to let them go, but why not arrest them now?

"His Royal Highness Taisun is here, right at the door."

The concierge said tremblingly.

"Look at your bad attitude. I'm not dead yet, and they haven't rushed in. There's nothing to worry about. Get out of here."

Zhang Jiuli just went up and kicked him. In fact, he was also afraid. If he didn't kick the servant, others might be able to see his trembling hands.

"Meet His Highness the Grand Sun."

Zhang Jiuli tidied his clothes, then called the main members of the family over, and knelt down to Li Xiang at the door.

When the family knelt down, they could clearly feel the sound of galloping horses in the distance. You must know that this is in Chengdu. Without special orders, no cavalry would dare to gallop here. The shouts could still be heard, it was His Highness's men who were arresting people, and some of those who escaped were directly beheaded in the street.

Li Xiang looked into the distance and touched his nose. In the past half month, the people under his command have been busy and almost overturned half of the city. You people have harmed so many people. Now it's time to return them. As long as there is evidence, these people will be taken down immediately. Those who deserve to be distributed should be beheaded. Li Xiang will not hesitate for a minute. Only your family Still saved some face.

Of course, that's because your family is useful...
