In just half a month, the transaction volume of Anhan Commercial Bank in Luoyang City has been rising steadily, enough to compare with the total transaction volume in previous months.

On this day, Qian Li was full of joy and didn't care about the etiquette in the palace. He trotted all the way to the study.

"Your Majesty... is so happy..."

When Liu He heard the sound, he looked up at him: "Haha, it's rare to be like this. What's the joy of the matter? What's the matter? It's so?"

Qian Li was full of excitement. When he entered the door, he was almost knocked down by the threshold, but he didn't care at all.

"Your Majesty is like a god, and everything is defeated. In the past half month, I have ordered people to stay in various commercial stores. Anyone who sells land and property will buy it. At the same time, they will continue to sell official land and military fields to lower the land market."

"The common people are unable to buy land in such a large amount of sales, and the big and prominent families are still not as good as they can, so they will naturally not buy it again. Therefore, those who want to buy land on the market are just small and medium-sized wealthy families, as well as some families of meritorious soldiers awarded by the court. Faced with such a sale, the price of land is now less than 40% of the year before, and this is just the listing price, because Wang Yun and others are eager to take action, so they can still lower the actual negotiations."

"Because of this, I have purchased more than three million mu of paddy fields and more than one.6 million mu of dry land at a price equivalent to 40% to 50% a month ago. Most of the million mu of land that the imperial court has been offered are ignored and have not been sold. The only 700,000 mu of 800,000 mu sold are sold between 70 and 800,000 mu of land a month ago. This time, the imperial court has obtained about four million mu of land, and the more than 20 billion yuan that the imperial court has given to me is actually just a fraction of it."

Looking at his extremely happy appearance, Liu He couldn't help but laugh.

"It's right, this is just the beginning. You're already so excited. When all the overall situation is fully unfolded, won't you faint from excitement?"

Qian Li was stunned: "Why, Your Majesty has some other tricks?"

Liu He smiled and said, "This is natural. I have said that after this time, the court's official land will be at least doubled, but the court only makes money, not spending money. This is not joking with you."

Qian Li was busy and looked straight: "You dare to ask Your Majesty, how should I stop next?"

Liu He said: "It's very simple. After that, you take the initiative."

"Hmm?" Qian Li didn't understand for a moment.

"I ordered you to purchase the land you have already bought, but it was just a passive wait. I have predicted that Wang Yun and others will be hesitant to try other ways to raise the money needed to purchase books."

Liu He's words made Qian Li nod frequently: "Your Majesty is right, it will definitely be like this. After thinking about it, they will step up selling books and sell some other property, such as houses, jewelry and jade, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc.."

"That's it." Liu He said: "There is a handwritten here. You took it to the business bank and handed it to the shop manager Li Ang, the manager of the business bank. He ordered him to postpone the paper books, a large number of jewelry, gold, silver, jade, calligraphy and paintings that have appeared in the business bank recently. The ones that were originally posted today will be postponed until tomorrow. Those who should be on the counter of Jiazi will remove the counter of Yi, and so on, let him deal with it by himself. In short, if I only have one result, I will not let them raise money too smoothly, do you understand?"

Liu He is the big boss behind Anhan Business Company and is a big boy. No matter from any perspective, Li Ang must do it.

Qian Li's eyes lit up and he quickly stepped forward to take the order: "I understand, so I will do it."

"Slow down, why are you anxious?" Liu He called him back.

"At the same time, you ordered people to take the initiative to publish news about purchasing land in the business, what price... Just above the current market, it ranges from 80% to 90%, and the number is large, ranging from thousands to tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of acres."

"Ah, I understand. Your Majesty wants to force them and have to sell their land."

Qian Li's exclamation was filled with joy.

"Not bad." Liu He knew very well that the Eastern Han Dynasty was a dynasty that shared the world with imperial power and aristocratic families.

The major families dominate the local area, which is comparable to the local emperor. This has led to the increasing serious land annexation, and the people cannot pay many taxes, so they can only sell land, work short-term labor for these large households, or rent land for a living.

Especially by the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, land annexation had already intensified social conflicts to the point where it could not be eased, which led to a situation where chaos in the late Han Dynasty, rebel troops were everywhere, and the vassal army emerged.

Some top big families have millions of acres of land, which is not a strange thing. Ordinary large families should have tens of thousands, ranging from hundreds of thousands of acres. For example, the family where Cai Yong is located, because he is obsessed with learning and calligraphy, and does not deliberately expand his property, so there are only 20,000 mu of land, which is considered very small. Even the family where Sikong Cui Lie is located has a land of more than 200,000 mu, let alone Wang Yun and others?

This is also why the big farmers were eager to temporarily sell the land after they issued the tax reform.

Now, in the prefectures and counties that they actually control, although many families have fled to the cities under Cao Cao and other princes until last year, there are still thousands of families of all sizes. Most of them have tribe members in court, so it is inconvenient to leave. There are many people who disobey the imperial court's government orders.

Liu He took this opportunity to attack their arrogance, and at the same time, he took back as much of the huge land they had in their hands to the court as much as possible, and then handed it over to the people in need to farm in the name of official land and military farmland, either for long-term rent or for short-term sale.

In this way, everyone will have their own land, and society will become more and more stable, and the taxes of the court will increase, which will benefit the Han and the country without any harm.

As soon as Qian Li left the house, he was about to run into Gong Saner's arms, and the memorial in Gong Saner's hand was also knocked away.

Xun Yu hurried forward and picked up the memorial. Gong Saner and Qian Li were so scared that they knelt down and apologized.

"A small matter is a small matter, you are all doing your own things, don't care." Liu He waved his hand, and the two of them then took their leave.

"Where did the report come from?" Liu He asked Xun Yu.

Xun Yu opened the memorial, glanced at it, then frowned slightly: "Go back to Your Majesty, Li Mang, the general of Goguryeo, led an army of 120,000, and the general of Fuyu Luo Fujin, led an army of 80,000, totaling 200,000. Five days ago, suddenly emerged from the dense forest in the northeast of Liaodong County. Zhao Yun and other generals had never expected the enemy to be so loud and unprepared, and were captured by the enemy. Now the two sides are confronting each other in Xiangping City, Liaodong County."

"Oh?" Liu He was a little surprised: "I didn't expect that Goguryeo actually took action before Cao Cao? Could it be that he was a plan to attack the east and dig the tiger away from the mountain?"
