As the Provincial Governor of Wo Xia, Su Wo did not consider what would happen to Wo Xia. What he considered was how to make Wo submit to Xia Xia and how to make Wo Xia a part of Xia.
Why did they submit so thoroughly? Because they could not stop Xia Xia.
Xia Xia's momentum was irresistible.
Therefore, when Su Wo carried out his mission, other than taking care of the Su Family, he constantly wiped out the other families.
The Abe Family, the Uesugi Family, the Watanabe Family, and the other people who once belonged to the royalist faction, and even some people who went against Su Wo, were all killed.
During this month, a huge massacre was carried out.
There were massacres everywhere.
There were deaths everywhere.
Du Qi saw Su Wo Xia Yi's massacre with his eyes, but he didn't care, nor did he interfere. This was because massacres were not a bad thing for Xia Xia. After removing all the forces that belonged to Wo Xia, Xia Xia could re-establish order.
After a month of massacres, Wo Xia's territory completely changed.
Because of such massacres, countless pieces of land in Wo Xia were emptied. All the land that belonged to the nobles and the royal family was taken over by the imperial court. They were all under Xia Xia's control.
This was a change made by Su Wo after he learned about the changes in Goguryeo in the north.
After Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla were destroyed, all the land was taken over by the state and then rented to the people to farm. The people could farm, but they could not trade.
This was the land policy.
Under such a policy, the people of Wo Xia were naturally overjoyed.
Back in Wo Xia, all the people at the bottom of the Wo Xia's hierarchy lived extremely difficult lives. Many people relied on the large families and did not have their own land. They even lived a difficult life all year round.
Now, they had land.
They did not have to rely on the large nobles.
Of course, the commoners liked such days, because only then would they have something to look forward to.
Although the people were still frightened by the massacre, now that they were given a sweet date, countless people supported Xia Xia from the bottom of their hearts. They all felt that the Heavenly Dynasty was indeed the best.
During the reformation, even the interests of the Su Family were greatly damaged. Most of the Su Family's land was reduced, leaving only a small amount.
What the Su Family controlled was mainly business.
This was the foundation.
It was also the cornerstone of the Su Family's continued benefits.
After Su Wo Xia Yi's reform was completed, another month had passed. Two months had passed. At this time, the days of bloodshed gradually passed, and the people had gradually become accustomed to submitting to Xia Xia.
From the bottom of their hearts, many people recognized Xia Xia.
On this day, Su Wo Xie Yi came to the military camp at the dock to pay his respects.
Originally, Du Qi should have moved to the imperial palace in the capital, but in the end, Du Qi stayed at the ferry. Therefore, when Su Wo Xia Yi had something to do, he could only make a long journey to the ferry to pay a visit.
Su Wo Xia Yi saw Du Qi and said: "Humble Su Wo Xia Yi greets Ping Xi Wang."
Du Qi said, "Su Youqing, what brings you here today?"
Wo Wo said said, Wo Xia to Xia Xia's Xia Yi said Xia to Wo Xia Xia Xia 'Xia Xia Be Be Xia Xia now.... Xia Xia Xia..... Then, the land was given to the people to cultivate. However, according to my knowledge, Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje have submitted to Xia Xia and become part of Xia Xia. In some places, there are even tax exemptions.
"Is the same strategy adopted in Wo Xia now?"
"Reduce or exempt taxes."
"So that Baekje can submit to Xia Xia and truly recognize Xia Xia from the bottom of their hearts."
Wo Wo Xia said, "What I'm doing is all for Xia Xia and Xia Xia's governance of Wo Xia. Think about it. Once the local taxes are temporarily exempted, the people will be even more grateful to Xia Xia and will be even more grateful. "
Du Qi said, "Is this your understanding?"
Wo Xia Yi said, "Yes!"
Du Qi said, "But what if some people are afraid of danger but not virtue? No matter how good you are to them, they will not be grateful?"
Wo Xia Yi said, "Then there's only one word — kill!"
Du Qi nodded and said, "That's true. But for most of the ordinary people of Wo Xia, it's not suitable to slaughter them for the time being. A few can be slaughtered, but we can't kill all of them. So we have to give them benefits, but we can't give them for free. "
Wo Xia Yi said, "Please give me instructions, Ping Xiwang."
Du Qi said, "There's no need to implement the tax exemption for now. After the new Wo Xia Governor arrives, he will start to adjust Wo Xia. When he implements Xia Xia's official language and writing, he will implement the tax exemption together. This is the way to go in the long run. "
After Wo Xia Yi heard this, he immediately understood.
He understood Du Qi's intentions.
Wo Xia Yi said, "Your Highness Ping Xiwang, you're really considerate. If you only implement the writing and official language, or even run a school, there will be a certain degree of difficulty. But if you implement the tax exemption together, the people will not be able to refuse. This is the best arrangement. "
Du Qi said, "That's what I mean."
Wo Xia Yi said, "In that case, I won't adopt other policies for the time being and maintain the current situation."
Du Qi said, "Okay!"
Wo Xia Yi didn't stay any longer and directly got up to leave.
After Wo Xia Yi left, Du Qi continued to read. Now in Wo Xia, Du Qi almost didn't interfere in the internal affairs and let Wo Xia Yi do whatever he wanted, so he rarely had anything to do.
In the afternoon, around five o 'clock.
Luo Binwang hurried in and came to Du Qi's side. He reported, "Your Majesty, the Wo Xia Governor sent by the imperial court has arrived outside the tent and asked for an audience."
"Let him in!"
Du Qi ordered.
Luo Binwang immediately gave the order. The curtain of the tent was lifted, and a middle-aged man in his thirties entered.
Du Qi was a little surprised when he saw the person.
The person who came was Di Zhixun.
He used to be the Governor of Qizhou, but now he was arranged by the imperial court to be the Governor of Wo Xia. After Di Zhixun entered the tent, he stood still and saluted, "Your Majesty, I'm Di Zhixun."
Du Qi said, "Get up."
"Yes!"
Di Zhixun immediately stood up.
Du Qi said with a smile on his face, "I didn't expect that you, Di Zhixun, would be the Governor of Wo Xia this time. But since you've come to Wo Xia, I can rest assured. You've been in the borderlands, so you have the means and won't be soft-hearted. When it comes to Wo Xia, you need to show both kindness and severity. If you blindly show kindness, it's easy to make mistakes. "
Di Zhixun said, "I'll do my best and live up to your expectations."
At first, Di Zhixun was a little surprised and even hesitant when he was arranged by the imperial court to come to Wo Xia. However, after hesitating, Di Zhixun directly agreed.
This was his chance.
As long as he managed Wo Xia well, it would be a real political achievement.
When the time came, he would be promoted to the central government. It was unlikely that he would continue to stay on the ground. In the future, if he really needed to be in charge of a place, he would be a governor of a border or at least a director.
