Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 381 Willing to be a loyal minister of Liu

Before coming to Anya City again, Liu Shihao and his wife each gave Liu Feiyun a list of their family assets so that he would have an idea and be able to make correct plans for the Liu family's future.

Only Liu Feiyun himself knew the full contents of the two lists. Even his parents didn't know what was written on the other party's list.

Now, the two lists had long since been reduced to ashes, but he still remembered the items on the lists clearly, without missing a single detail.

The things on both lists are really too shocking!

Not to mention anything else, just in terms of grain, the two of them each saved at least 10 million shi.

What does 10 million stones mean? That is enough to feed one million people for two years.

In fact, until now, Liu Feiyun still couldn't understand it. His mother managed the family business and was always responsible for buying grain. It was reasonable for her to save tens of millions of stones of grain.

But what about my father? He doesn't care about money and doesn't buy food. How can he save tens of millions of dan of food? Could it be that he knows some magic? But there are no gods in this world!

For this, he asked his father several times, but his father just avoided the question.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up.

"Who cares where the food comes from? As long as it's edible, that's fine."

"As long as we have food in our hands, we won't be panicked and can continue to recruit people!"

"Although we don't plan to expand our territory for the time being, we must recruit enough people! And we have to recruit as many as we can!"

Liu Feiyun thought in his heart and slowly woke up from his trance. Seeing that Gao Xian was still in shock, he shouted:

"Uncle Gao! Uncle Gao! Uncle Gao!"

Gao Xian was awakened by Liu Feiyun's cry, but still asked uncertainly:

"My Lord Earl! You really have tens of millions of dan of grain at home! But why didn't I know about it? I haven't seen such a large granary at home!"

"Uncle Gao, in fact, the food is hidden in a dry and ventilated cave, so few people know about it! Not to mention you, even I only found out about it not long ago!"

Liu Feiyun then changed the subject:

"Although my family has plenty of food, it didn't come from the wind, so we must use it sparingly and carefully. We must not let these grains be embezzled by some parasites."

"In addition, the amount of grain stored must be kept secret. We can only tell the public that our Liu family has three million shi of grain stored, and Anya's government warehouses have a total of two million shi of grain stored."

"Uncle Gao, you are now the de facto governor of the entire Anya County. In addition to recruiting people, other reforms must also be carried out! Especially those corrupt officials, they must be purged!"

"I need a government with clean governance to serve as a strong guarantee for my development of Anya!"

"Uncle Gao! I hope you can be a capable assistant to my Liu family! After all! In the officialdom of Anya County, you are the person my Liu family knows and trusts the most! If someone else takes this position, my Liu family will not be at ease!"

How could Gao Xian not hear that Liu Feiyun was representing the Liu family and formally inviting him to join the Liu family, which was actually a separatist force:

From the perspective of outsiders, he had actually been deeply tied to the Liu family for a long time, but the relationship had not been formally confirmed.

The Liu family is now in great need of civil officials! Especially those who are absolutely trustworthy and have certain qualifications and practical experience. And I am undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Likewise, this is also a great opportunity for me.

"Young Master, you are too kind! How could I, Gao Xian, be valued by both the old Earl and the Lord Earl?"

"However, although Gao is not talented, I have received great kindness from the Earl! I have no way to repay you, so I can only serve you! I will devote myself to the Liu family until my death!"

"If the Lord Earl does not abandon us! If the Liu family does not abandon us, Gao and the He family are willing to be Liu's subjects and be loyal to them for generations! We will never rebel, otherwise, the entire Gao family will be wiped out!"

Gao Xian bowed deeply and formally expressed his willingness to serve.

From then on, he would no longer consider himself a minister of the Chen Dynasty, but a minister of the Liu Family.

Nowadays, there are two emperors in the Chen Dynasty, and the two sides are almost evenly matched. There are also great nobles entrenched in the local area who openly rebel, and there are also riots and rebellions one after another.

Chaos in the world is inevitable!

This has caused many people to change their original mindsets.

It turns out that the Great Chen Dynasty, which unified the country, is now in name only. So what will the situation become next?

Did the Chen Dynasty fall and then rise again? Or did the two emperors of the Chen Dynasty fight and exhaust the last bit of luck of the Chen Dynasty, and then the Chen Dynasty was completely lost and replaced by a new dynasty?

Others may not know, but Gao Xian can’t tell!

But he knew that nowadays, the only way out for him, Gao Xian, and his Gao family was to cling to the strong support of the Liu family.
