These days, Lin Yuan has been studying most of the aristocratic families in the Yuan Dynasty. These aristocratic families can leave their names on the scroll, even the Haozhou family, the Li family, enough to prove how powerful they have.

Aristocratic families do not necessarily have high-ranking officials, but they must be well-known in the local area. The local people depend on them to live on, and even the officials sent by the imperial court have to live by their faces.

After all, officials have served for several years, but the family has remained unchanged for decades. It is difficult for a strong dragon to crush the local snake. The local snake is so intertwined that it is impossible to start.

Most of them also have such aristocratic families, but because it is the place where the imperial power is most concentrated in most cities, most of the aristocratic families are shrinking, and they have long lost their status and ability.

But this does not mean that they have become at the mercy of others.

Able to survive in the hands of the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty and have survived for so many generations, their tentacles have also extended into the courts of the Yuan Dynasty, and many officials have been "funded" by them.

After all, there are so many official salaries, and there are so many officials and high-ranking officials in the imperial city. Even if they make money, ordinary officials can't make much.

Put it outside, the fifth-grade officials are already high-ranking officials, but in most cities, a plaque dropped on the road might kill several fifth-grade officials or relatives of the emperor.

On the surface, it seems that the officials are supported by them, but in fact they are the officials who check and balance them.

They have their own wisdom, and they spend money to get more benefits.

Of course these aristocratic families were afraid of Lin Yuan, but their fear of Lin Yuan was not deep.

To be precise, some of them think that the day has changed and their opportunity has arrived.

So they want to talk about conditions with Lin Yuan.

They still have a lot of chips in their hands.

First, they have money and food.

Second, they have some people. Although they don't dare to be blatant, they do have many servants, and most of them are attached to them.

Third, they realized that what Lin Yuan is most anxious to do now is to stabilize the city.

This is their opportunity.

It is they who re-enter the court and regain the opportunity to speak.

Of course, if Lin Yuan was not a South Bodhisattva, and without such a good reputation, they would not dare to make conditions with Lin Yuan, and they might have escaped long ago.

It is precisely because of Lin Yuan's reputation that they think that Lin Yuan is a person who emphasizes his fame. The more he emphasizes his name, the easier it is to figure out his mind.

"There are indeed a few smart people." Lin Yuan looked at the submission.

Song Shizhao also sighed: "It's just useless on the right path."

Lin Yuan shook his head: "We can't blame them either."

In an aristocratic family, if there are no officials in it, it won't be long before they die, so they know that they might anger Lin Yuan, and they have to gamble their whole family's lives.

If the family wants to be strong and prosperous, there must be a person standing next to the emperor in each generation.

In the Yuan Dynasty, they couldn't do it, they could only shrink back, so when Lin Yuan came out, they also came out.

They want to be crazy.

Now is the best opportunity. Lin Yuan has just entered the metropolis and is not familiar with most of them. There are certainly not many people who can use it. After all, it is impossible to bring all of his confidants in the war. There must be still confidants in the big city he conquered , These people are temporarily immobile, so their chance is there.

You can send your own children to Lin Yuan.

So almost all of the books Lin Yuan received were loyal to the family, but what they said was very artistic and very tactful.

It's about--

"The world has been in chaos for so long, and finally there is a British lord like you. Although we are stupid, we also know that the world has the ability to live there. Since you are here, it must be the choice of heaven. Therefore, we are willing to help you. You calm down most of the city, but we are the people after all and we are not qualified to help you, so we chose the best disciple in the family, and if you want, we will send them to you."

Song Shizhao accepted the submission from Lin Yuan, and after reading it carefully, he smiled and said, "The author of this article is a capable person."

This kind of article appears weak and can be deceived by one point, and a bit more domineering, and it happens that very few can be written like this.

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "There will be places that can be used in the future."

The children of these aristocratic families have learned how to become officials since they were young, and they studied for the sake of becoming officials.

It is impossible for Lin Yuan to not use them, because after years of turbulent wind and rain, this kind of people is what is most needed.

But he is not going to let these aristocratic families go anymore, and will not allow them to have any rights that do not belong to them.

They gave up their fortune today to be attached to Lin Yuan, and they will get more from Lin Yuan in the future. They give up today for the sake of tomorrow.

Song Shizhao understood what Lin Yuan meant. Although he himself could be regarded as a family background, his family was too small after all. He could only find a place to shrink when he changed the dynasty. He did not have much sense of identity with the family. On the contrary, he was in In a way, like Lin Yuan, he felt that the family was in the way and hindered the imperial power.

If it wasn't for Lin Yuan to use the disciples cultivated by the family, Song Shizhao would be ready to propose to take this opportunity to wipe out the family, lest they collude and cause chaos later and cause trouble.

"Leave them alone," Lin Yuan said, "refine the employment system."

He wants the servants of the family to become the people again and let the people create value, and these values ​​do not belong to the family, but to him.

Song Shizhao promised, he suddenly said: "The minister has been busy all these days, for fear of lack of energy, it can be handed over to one person at this time."

This is to recommend talents to Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan smiled and asked, "Who?"

Song Shizhao said: "This son is the son of Zhao's family, who is proficient in art and upright."

Said that this person is good at math, but he is a bit rigid and doesn't know how to work.

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Then let this person go."

I don't know how to work around.

What he needs at this time happens to be someone who doesn't know how to work.

In this way, even if the family hated him, they would not hate him.

Although he is not afraid that the family will hate him, it is better to do more than to do less, right?

So Zhao Jiazi took office. He was the only person in most of the family to become an official after changing the court. His parents couldn't believe it when they got the order from the servant. It is really... his son knows it, and their son can study. , But he can only read books. What is said in the book is what he said in the book. When he was a child, his family thought he was too stubborn, so they tricked him into climbing to the roof every day to read.

The roof is unstable, and my buttocks still hurt after sitting for a long time.

Not to mention that he sneaked down to read against his parents' orders, he should always find himself a plank or cushion.

As a result, he was actually sitting on the roof. If it rained, he would use an umbrella for fear of getting the books wet, and only cover the books to get himself in the rain.

The family members were really convinced by him, and they stopped paying attention to him, and they were more attentive to train the second and third sons.

After all, there is no shortage of sons, and you can always find a smart one.

The Zhao family's name was Zhao Rong, and he was so energetic. After all, everyone was born and he still had courage. He took the verbal order and immediately took charge of the servants.

The first person to be operated on was his own home.

His father was so angry that he cursed at home: "These are world servants who have been serving our family for generations. Now let them go out. Do you think your mother can cook, or your father can sweep the house?"

Zhao Rong was not angry or regressed when he was scolded by his father. Instead, he said, "It's an employment, not that they are not allowed to be in our house."

"It's just that there must be a fixed salary, which can't be killed, just like before."

His father scolded again: "There is no difference!"

He hates himself for teaching his son to be a gentleman!

Why would the servant be loyal to them?Once something goes wrong at home, the servant will save his master first if he saves his life.

why?Is it because they are naturally servile and strong?

No, it's because the life of their family rests on the owner, their wives and children, their relatives and friends, everything rests on the owner.

Once they find out that even if no one is the owner, they can live well, or if the owner is not good to them, they just need to switch to another one, which is not easy for the family to turn upside down.

Of course, the aristocratic family will not take slaves too seriously, but they have many things that can be used as slaves. Outsiders always don't have their own family members to give them peace of mind, but what if their own family members also become outsiders?

"They will hate you and our family to death!" His father bowed his head and paused, "Then King Nan is forcing our family to die!"

Zhao Rong said: "Father, as a minister, loyalty is the first class. Although my children are not talented, they know that they will have a bright future if they are loyal to the Lord. If I retire today, there will always be others who want to take over my children's errands. If the son is done, my Zhao family can have a place in the new dynasty. If it is defeated, my father will not panic. The son will compensate them with one life, and the whole family should not suffer disaster."

"Father has sons, and children have sons. The Zhao family does not lack this son. Father, let the children go." Zhao Rong knelt down in front of Zhao's father.

His two younger brothers also said: "Father, let the eldest brother go."

Father Zhao looked at his eldest son, and finally said, "You... go."

Zhao Rong went, and with his own power, he upset most families.

He was cursed to die every moment.

These people first gave gifts to the Zhao family, relatives with the Zhao family, and even willing to give up their daughters to be Zhao Rong's concubines, but the Zhao family did not agree.

They have chosen the lineup and cannot change it.

So Zhao Rong did not dare to drink outside drinks, did not dare to eat outside meals, and he mostly shied away when his friends banqueted him.

Lin Yuan said to Song Shizhao, "This person is indeed usable."

Able to complete the assigned tasks faithfully, without a little bit of water, even if you don't know how to work, can be called a loyal minister and virtuous.

He wants to take a new path and needs people who follow him wholeheartedly, and he cannot use two voices in his team.

"Tell people to protect him." Lin Yuan said again, "Even if I set up a target, no one can move this target."

Song Shizhao lowered his head.

Today the family will hate Zhao Rong.

But in the future, they will find that it was because of Zhao Rong that they escaped.

The methods of the Southern Bodhisattva have changed. He no longer relies on killing to gain power, he has learned new methods.
