In Wuyi County, Li Che sat high on his horse and said lightly to Yang Kai who was looking for him to see him off: "I remember the care of County Magistrate Yang for my younger brother in my heart, and he will definitely repay him in the future."

Yang Kaihua was so happy that he bowed repeatedly: "It is the right thing for the junior master to do for the young master, so don't worry, the eldest master."

Li Che laughed twice and left with a horse.

Wang Mingyi glanced at Yang Kai with pity and followed him to chase him. Poor Yang Kai had no idea about the twists and turns here because his level was too low, and he even bragged for Li Ze in front of Li Che. What's loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, and love for the people and are promising. Everything is not true, but pushing Li Ze into the abyss. More importantly, he tied himself to Li Ze's broken ship a little tighter.

Yang Kai wanted Li Che to empathize with him more deeply. Now he has achieved this goal perfectly. Wang Mingyi, who is very familiar with Li Che, can see his disgust towards Yang Kai from the depths of Li Che's eyes. This kid is over.

It seems that I have to find a way to cut this guy. Brother Yang, Brother Yang, don’t blame my brother for being unkind and righteous. I am really a clay Buddha now crossing the river. I really don’t have the ability to pull you. Please beg for your own blessings!

Li Che seems generous and tolerant on the outside, but with Wang Mingren, a person who has been by Li Che for a long time and is regarded as a confidant, Wang Mingyi knows that Li Che is actually quite narrow-minded in his heart. He has been a pride of heaven since he was a child, and he has no other children in his eyes. In addition, he is indeed successful, so he is even more arrogant and feels that all the heroes in the world are just like this. In the future, there will definitely be a place for him in Li Che.

Now a Li Ze suddenly popped up. In such a difficult environment, he actually made such a huge career. While Li Che was still trying to make more money to expand his armaments and fill the treasury, Li Ze had already made a lot of money silently.

You know, the innate conditions of the two of them are incomparable.

Doesn’t this mean that Li Che is much worse than Li Ze?

If Li Ze was another wealthy nobleman with a similar identity as Li Che, Li Che might be able to figure it out, but Li Ze was the one who was born.

How can a person he never takes seriously and never regards it as a threat suddenly make him realize that he is so outstanding?

He is no longer the only choice for his father.

A layer of haze rose in Li Che's eyes.

Such things will naturally be strangled in the shaking blue.

Of course, killing people is the worst strategy. No matter what, Li Ze is also his half-brother. If he really wants to kill it with a simple knife, it would be better. However, this will greatly damage his reputation and be tainted by others. Secondly, it will also make his father feel dissatisfied with him. Even if he was born by his mother, it would be his father's blood.

Li Che was not like his father, who was dedicated to Chengde's land. After Gongsun Changming arrived in Chengde, in order to urge Li Anguo to join the alliance to fight against Lu Long, he analyzed the general trend of the world very clearly about the father and son, and both father and son were extremely excited.

Li Anguo was excited that he really wanted to be as Gongsun Changming analyzed, then there would be a greater possibility that he would become a virtue, because he no longer had to worry about the court suppressing him openly in the name of righteousness. However, Li Che was excited, but he saw a greater opportunity.

How about the generals and ministers in the world?

Since the world is in chaos, heroes will naturally emerge. Who can hold on to the world? It depends on the guys in hand to speak. Why doesn’t Chengde have a chance?

It is precisely because of these considerations that Li Che is unwilling to let his reputation be damaged. Over the years, how much has he sacrificed and how much tolerated he has given up in order to have such a good reputation now! How can he waste all his efforts on this matter?

If you want to compete for the world, a pure and flawless reputation is absolutely indispensable. You cannot underestimate this reputation. It will attract more knowledgeable people and talented people to like each other. If your reputation of killing your brother is spread, it will only make people sneer and make people laugh. Not to mention attracting talents to vote, I am afraid that internal people will be disinterested. At least, Li Anmin from Zhaozhou, this second uncle will definitely make trouble. Li Ze is also a Li clan, even if he has not yet entered the clan or the genealogy. But is this very important? If you want to make trouble, you only need to have such an excuse.

Li Che was depressed, Wang Mingyi was a little frightened. No matter what, after having contacted Li Ze several times, he still recognized Li Ze from the bottom of his heart, but this time he sold him cleanly. Now that Li Che is forced to see Li Ze himself, he is really a little uneasy.

The two of them didn't speak, and the more than a hundred knights who accompanied them naturally shut up. Along the way, they could only hear the sound of horse hooves.

Wuyi is a remote small place. It is rare to see hundreds of fully armed knights running on the road like this. When passing by some villages with slightly concentrated populations, it may attract onlookers.

This is because Chengde and Li Anguo have been managing the local area over the years. The people are not afraid of the soldiers. If they are in a place like Henghai, they will be afraid that every household will close their doors and pray to God for blessings.

As soon as he entered Li Ze's circle of power, Li Che immediately saw the difference. Even though the earth was still covered with snow, the outlines of the fields could still be seen, and the irrigation system surrounding the land was clear at a glance. Although the houses were all adobe houses, they were not basically covered with thatch, just like other places, but were all tiles.

A group of dogs ran after the knights at a distance, leaving a bunch of plum blossom marks on the snow. In the courtyard walls made of fences, poultry such as chickens and ducks were rummaging to find food in the snow. When they heard the sound of horse hooves, they just stretched their necks and took a look, then retreated and continued their work of fighting for wild food.

Some little dolls were dressed tightly, stuffing some snacks into their mouths, and staring at the warriors curiously on the fence wall. Then, adults hurried out from the house and walked into the house with their children. The adults, without exception, were dressed very well.

It feels so rich that Li Che is at his sight.

And this is actually extremely rare. At least in Li Che's opinion, the people here live much better than those in Zhenzhou. Zhenzhou is the headquarters of Chengde District, so the policies are naturally much looser. Whether it is taxes or corvee, they are much lighter than the other three states. However, such a village cannot be found in Li Che's reflection.

Li Che was trained as a successor since childhood, but not only outstanding in martial arts, but also one of the areas of his learning. Seeing the scene here, he naturally won’t be without feelings.

Rich means more taxes, wealth means more children will be born and more military sources, and wealth means Chengde has greater potential for war. In the end, fighting is not only the courage of the army, but also the strategy of the generals, but also the money.

Because you will have stronger soldiers, better armor and weapons, richer logistics supplies, more salary and rewards for soldiers and higher morale.

There were about 100,000 households and nearly 600,000 people in the twenty-five counties under the rule of Chengde. What would it be like if these 100,000 households were as rich as here?

Seeing all this, Li Che felt even more afraid of his younger brother who had never met before.

Such a person must never let him grow wild outside, he must be controlled by himself in the palm of his hand. Since he is talented, he must of course not be buried, but he can only do things for himself under one premise.
