Therefore, they are members of their own family who know their own affairs and are well aware of the complexities within a large family.

Not to mention a big family like the Zhang family, which has gained huge profits in a short period of time, but doesn't have a principal with enough prestige.

At this time, some people have begun to think about it:

Is the governor's office planning to blatantly support Zhang?

Or maybe Zhang just wants to use the help of the governor's office to rectify the Zhang family and truly establish his position as the head of the family?

But no matter what, the impact of this incident is definitely not just a matter for the Zhang family.

"Secretary Zhang, I was just confused for a moment and am willing to pay for my sins."

Zhang Erlang finally couldn't bear it anymore and begged for mercy again and again.

"If I remember correctly, by law, those who collaborate with thieves will be executed and their property confiscated, and their wives and children will be exiled to the frontier."

Secretary Zhang said expressionlessly:

"Of course, the specific case will be decided by the competent authority."

Watching the wolf-like guards rushing in.

Zhang Erlang finally howled unwillingly:

"I don't accept it! Feng Junhou is out on an expedition. You are just a woman. How can you have the authority to act like this?"

"Women do politics!"

"Female chicken Si Chen!"

…

Secretary Zhang was not moved by his words at all, and his expression did not even waver.

Seeing the guards dragging the limp Zhang Erlang out like a dead dog, everyone's expressions were quite complicated.

There is solemnity, indifference, and gloating, to name a few.

Capital is greedy.

Secretary Zhang has been following Feng Guiwang for so long, so he naturally knows this truth very well.

Not to mention the privileges that those aristocratic families have enjoyed for a long time will only amplify their greed.

In just a few years, there are already signs that someone wants to cross the red line.

The large-scale expedition of the Liangzhou Army this time inevitably created an internal emptiness. In addition, the Battle of Guanzhong would not be resolved for a long time.

And the daily routine of the governor's office this year has been centered around the Battle of Guanzhong.

So some people took this opportunity to test the governor's bottom line.

Probably the Han Dynasty recaptured Liangzhou too easily without large-scale bloodshed (Feng Guiwang: Precision Purge).

Let some people fish in troubled waters and easily reap the development dividends of Liangzhou.

This led them to have some illusion that the imperial court's attitude towards them was different from that of Shu families.

Just like some people in later generations, they think that they are the most special one in the eyes of Neptune.

Little did they know that King Feng Gui was the most ruthless scumbag.

Of course, Secretary Zhang is also a scumbag in the political sense.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, Secretary Zhang's actions were supporting Zhang Jiu.

But in fact, after the news of the great victory in Guanzhong reached Liangzhou, Secretary Zhang immediately made up his mind to attack the wealthy Liangzhou family.

As for Zhang Jiu's return, it was just a coincidence, or in other words, it was just a coincidence that she helped Zhang Jiu stabilize the Zhang family as soon as possible.

And Zhang Erlang is the chicken used to teach the monkey.

Without Zhang Erlang, sooner or later there will be Li Sanlang and Yan Silang...

Of course, Zhang Erlang's identity did have a deterrent effect, leaving many people in a state of uncertainty.

The next agenda item was about the Liangzhou workshop and wool supply, which did not cause too much trouble.

Surprisingly, Secretary Zhang also brought everyone a message from the front line:

The military has decided to increase its efforts to purchase leather next year.

This made many people's hearts beat.

The development of animal husbandry naturally led to the rise of leather processing in Liangzhou.

After all, no matter how rich a big man is, there is no way to make every soldier wear iron armor. The most he can do is to increase the armor rate in the army as much as possible.

What's more, there are gold-eating monsters like armored cavalry in the Han army.

It would be possible to make use of Liangzhou's animal husbandry to allow soldiers in the army to wear leather armor to improve their protective capabilities.

Moreover, the battle in Guanzhong was regarded as the largest battle between the Han Dynasty and Wei State, and it was also a comprehensive confrontation.

The Liangzhou Army fought against the bandits many times in various complex terrains.

According to the experience summarized by frontline staff, iron armor cannot adapt to all environments.

Sometimes, they can even become a burden.

Therefore, leather armor that is lightweight and has certain protective capabilities has become an option.

After everyone left, Zhang Xingyi was still sitting where he was, with a slightly tired look on his face.

As the Han Dynasty continued to regain its homeland, the game between the various forces became more and more intense.

"This is just the beginning. Even if I kill Zhang Erlang, I'm afraid it will only shock him for a while."

Zhang Xingyi rubbed his forehead and said, "When the limelight passes, I wonder who will lose their head again."

Zhang Erlang can be regarded as a son of an aristocratic family, but in the face of greedy capital, his life is so worthless.

The situation is obviously very good, but Secretary Zhang's political instinct makes her increasingly worried about something she cannot express:

The Han Dynasty suppressed the old aristocratic families, but the power of the new rich is rapidly expanding. Who can guarantee that the new rich will not follow the powerful path of the later Han Dynasty in the future?

If the Prime Minister were here, I would naturally not have such worries, but the Prime Minister's body... Sigh!
