Chapter 505

With the death of Tao Qian, Xuzhou will definitely change greatly.

Mi Zhu really didn't go back, but he sent a few people to write to MI Fang, asking him to take people to guard the camp, and bring people out if he could.

The MI family is a big family in Xuzhou and has a foundation. As long as Liu Bei hasn't completely controlled Xuzhou, he won't do it, so they still have time.

The situation is changing so fast that Liu Bei finally has a place.

A few days later, Liu Bei buried Tao Qian and formally led the Xuzhou shepherd.

When Liu Bei took office, half of the troops were in his hands. The other troops were divided into several factions. Liu Bei's family was the only one.

These people are the old ministers left by Tao Qian, and they are also the powerful families in Xuzhou. Liu Bei can't do anything about them, at least not in a short time.

And Liu Bei how to say Mi Fang is also Zhang Yu's second brother-in-law, if Zhang Yu use this as an excuse to attack Liu Bei, Liu Bei's foothold is not stable, really dangerous.

Liu Bei has few useful staff, so he is very passive. He has only one Jian Yong, which is useless before, because it is not Liu Bei who is in charge of Xuzhou.

"My Lord, my subordinates suggest that we negotiate with Zhang Yu to let all Mi's family move out of Xuzhou. Otherwise, we will be afraid of the devil and Mi Fang's stay in Xuzhou will be a danger." Jianyong suggested.

At this time, Jian Yong is Liu Bei's most important person, many things are left to him to deal with.

Zhang Fei can't give him any advice except to lead the soldiers. In addition, Guan Yu can only make some unimportant suggestions. Liu Bei can only discuss with Jian Yong about this important matter.

Liu Bei was so angry that he wanted to swear, but he couldn't help it.

It seems that we can only compromise for the time being.

"Zhang Yu, one day, I will expel all your merchants and take over all your property in Xuzhou." Liu Bei secretly hates Zhang Yu. After he became a herdsman in Xuzhou, he still has nothing to do with Zhang Yu.

When Liu Bei's new official takes office, he will naturally set off a few fires.

However, he did not let out a single fire after checking the information and the Treasury of Xuzhou.

"To win the hearts of the people, there must be construction, but now, there are only hundreds of thousands in the Treasury, even the ordinary expenses are limited." Liu Bei said anxiously.

Hundreds of thousands, what's the use of a state.

But that's all that Tao Qian left him.

After the war, it took too much money to recover the local government, especially to recruit soldiers and horses.

However, although Xuzhou is rich, it can't afford to consume so much in a short time.

Tao Qian didn't worry when he was here, because with his prestige, he wanted to borrow some money or exchange other benefits, so it was easy to raise the money he needed.

Therefore, although the Treasury was empty, Tao Qian was not worried.

But Liu Bei is not Tao Qian, he just came to Xuzhou, who can bird him.

It's OK to rob those aristocratic families like Zhang Yu.

"Xianhe (Jian Yong), hundreds of thousands of dollars. I'm afraid we can't get through it in a few days. We have to find a way." Liu Bei said.

"My Lord, there should be a lot of money in other prefectures and counties' treasuries. This tax revenue has just been collected. At the beginning, Tao Qian only asked people to transport some of it back, and the other part was left for their own use. Now it's difficult. My Lord can transfer this part of the money first for urgent use." Jianyong said.

Liu Bei sighed and said, "I just took office. I wanted to be benevolent and win the hearts of the people, but in this way, it's not the opposite."

Liu Bei wants to buy people's hearts. He needs money, but now he has no money.

In this case, it's very dangerous to fight against Zhang Yu. If there is no money, there will be no war. If the army moves, it will be ten thousand taels of gold. If there is no money, the army can't move.

It took Liu Bei a few days to investigate the local government coffers. Fortunately, the tax revenue has just been collected. There is not much money, but there is a lot of food.

"How much grain did you deal with before?" Liu Bei asked the officials before he came to Xuzhou.

"Xuzhou animal husbandry used to give part of the grain to Mi's family to sell and exchange for money." The man replied.

Liu Bei nodded and asked people to go down. It was impossible for the grain to be handed over to the MI family. He had to sell it himself.

What he didn't know was that the MI family also withdrew a lot, most of the shops were sold through Zhang Yu's hands, and then brought the assets to Jiangdong.

It's hard for Liu Bei to take office as a new official. First of all, it's hard to get through the money barrier.

He brought back a lot of money from other counties, but not much. He can only survive the crisis at present.

People in those counties are also quite dissatisfied with Liu Bei's practice, but after all, Liu Bei has 100000 soldiers and dare not fight against him, but it is very easy to make trouble for Liu Bei in private.

Liu Bei did not have enough talents to replace all the officials in Xuzhou.

If he has the ability, he will beat down all the aristocratic families, and replace them with his own people like Zhang Yu, so as to firmly control the counties.

But no one has the ability to rely on these aristocratic families to govern the world.

Therefore, Liu Bei began to attract these aristocratic families.

After MI's exclusion, he went to woo Chen's family.

The Chen family is owned by Liu Bei in Xuzhou. It's not easy. It's a headache for a little money.

When Xuzhou changed its owner, Cao Cao also saw the opportunity, but he was unable to fight again, but he had already begun to prepare.

On the other hand, Yang Hong went back and told Yuan Shu that he would not negotiate.

"If you don't know the face, then don't talk about it. If you directly occupy Poyang Lake, what can he do?" Yuan Shu said angrily.

Yang Hong quickly dissuaded him and said, "Lord, it's absolutely impossible. Zhang Yu is not what he used to be. We don't know how many troops he has. According to Zhang Yu's character, it's not good to offend him. We'd better solve it by other means."

Yuan Shu's face was gloomy, and he didn't continue to say that he wanted to fight Zhang Yu directly.
