Chapter 240 He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world

Tang Jue thought that he was too inexperienced to manage a military camp.

"Although you are young, you were brought up by General Tang himself, and we all trust you."

"Also, although we are old, we still have the knowledge we have learned. We will do our best to teach you everything we know."

Tang Jue's eyes were slightly moist.

With everyone's help, he successfully took over the Tang Family Army.

The Sun Family Army controlled the entrance and exit of the entire Tongmen Pass.

Since then, the entire Tongmen Pass has been under the control of Gan Fanren.

Gan Tian felt dazed.

[I am still stunned by this wave of operations. ]

[Now it seems that the plots written in the novel are still conservative after all. Gan Tianya

never thought that this matter could be solved so easily.

These officials of Tongmen Pass are too spineless and too greedy to fear death.

After taking over Tongmen Pass, Gan Fanren is no longer a bachelor alone, he finally has his own territory.

Although these officials look obedient now, they are only under his tyranny and not really following him.

These people are selfish and will never really follow anyone.

They are disgusting blood-sucking worms that can do nothing but suck blood from people.

Gan Fanren needs to select suitable officials as soon as possible to manage Tongmen Pass.

Moreover, since Tongmen Pass is already his territory, he naturally has to repair it well, at least to ensure that the people under his jurisdiction are well fed and clothed.

Gan Fanren asked for the county annals of each county, but found that the records were in chaos and there was almost no useful information.

Gan Fanren took a deep breath.

Yes, these officials in Tongmen Pass were all garbage. What on earth was he expecting?

He had no choice but to select some people from Mubei County and visit every household.

For the people of Mubei County, Gan Fanren was a messenger of God and the savior of the entire Mubei County. Naturally, they had to do their best to complete the tasks assigned by Gan Fanren.

So, they helped Gan Fanren to make statistics.

Gan Fanren found that the people in Tongmen Pass were terribly poor. Except for Mubei County, almost every household was in a state of being poorly clothed and hungry.

If you are sick, you have no money to see a doctor and you can only bear it. If you are hungry, you can just grab a handful of Guanyin soil. When you die, that's when you will die.

Gan Fanren couldn't help but think of the memories of his previous life.

The people are having such a hard time now, but those officials are still greedy for pleasure.

He sent people to inform the people and let them receive relief.

One stone of rice and ten meters of cloth per person.

Such a large amount of money made the officials of Tongmen Pass feel heartbroken.

Now there is famine everywhere, this rice is so precious!

And this cloth, the material of this cloth is so good, why should it be given to these bastards for free?

Someone advised Gan Fanren.

"Sir, it's a pity to give these things to these ruffians so easily?"

"If you ask me, we are doing big things now, and we need money everywhere. We should sell these and exchange them for money."

Gan Fanren glared.

"Exchange for what money?"

"Now the people are in dire straits, what money do you want to exchange for?"

Gan Fanren warned: "Now that we want to accomplish big things, we must make the people love us."

"He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"

An official lowered his head and secretly spit in his heart.

Isn't it just to win the hearts of the people? It sounds nice.

They were respectful on the surface and sent people to notify the people, but in fact they secretly sent people to block along the way. If anyone came to collect the rice, they would drive them away.

Gan Fanren and his people waited for a long time, but no one came to collect the rice, and he felt strange.

The people are in such a difficult situation now, even eating Guanyin soil, how could they not come to collect rice?

No matter how I think about it, I feel that there is something wrong.

Gan Fanren immediately took people to other streets to ask about the situation.

Who knew that as soon as he walked to another street, someone threw stones at him.

"Dog official!"

"You are a bunch of conscienceless things, you will not die well."

Seeing Gan Fanren being beaten, Li Zhi stood in front of Gan Fanren unhappily, glaring at these troublemakers.

Gan Fanren said loudly: "Everyone, there may be a misunderstanding."

"My surname is Gan, you can call me Lord Gan, and I will lead this Tongmen Pass in the future."

"I promise that as long as everyone obeys my arrangements, they can eat well and wear warm clothes."

An extremely old lady said sadly.

"You are just saying nice things."

"We agreed to come to collect food, but my son was beaten to death by your people as soon as he approached. You and those officials are the same."

Gan Fanren was not surprised at all that this happened.

It would be strange if these cowardly fence-sitters could be so obedient.

The officials glared at the woman.

"Don't talk nonsense. When did we beat your son to death? It must be that your son was weak and fell down on his own, and he wanted to deceive us."

An official smiled at Gan Fanren ingratiatingly.

"Sir, these unruly people are always like this, you don't have to take it seriously."

"They must think that you are easy to talk to and kind, so they are making nonsense."

Gan Fanren raised his hand to stop him from saying what he was about to say.

He looked at the woman and said, "Madam, please tell me in detail what happened and who sent someone to beat your son to death. As long as you tell me and produce evidence, I will make a decision for you immediately."

The woman spat and said, "Bah, you are just talking nicely. If I produce evidence, not only will you not stand up for me, you will also kill people to silence them."

"Over the years, haven't you killed enough people with this method?"

Being misunderstood and spitted on, Gan Fanren was not angry, but bowed to the old woman devoutly.

The old woman was shocked by Gan Fanren's behavior.

"You all don't know that Gan is not an official sent by the court. Gan is a messenger sent by the goddess to the world to save the world on behalf of the goddess."

"Gan is not under the control of your majesty, and has no family relationship with these officials. If you can produce evidence, Gan will kill the murderer on behalf of the goddess today."

The old woman was shocked when she heard Gan Fanren's words.

"You, what do you mean by that..."

"Not under the control of His Majesty?"

"Aren't you rebelling?"

Gan Fanren stood up straight: "What if I rebel in this world? What if I don't?"

"As long as the people can live a good life, Gan is willing to bear the crime of rebelling."

"Well said."

"I've had enough of this shitty world. I don't care who is the emperor. Whoever gives me food and makes me full is the emperor!"

"Yes, I don't recognize any imperial seal. Whoever can keep me and my family alive and keep me well fed and clothed, I will recognize him as the emperor."

The old woman who questioned Gan Fanren just now knelt down with a plop.

"As long as you avenge my son, I will call you Your Majesty right away."
