Chu Tian has already begun to crack down on this behavior consciously.

The gathering of powerful people in the village will lead to the population being hidden and the income belongs to the powerful people, and the lord's mansion cannot be taxed. Moreover, the existence of the disciples will threaten Chu Tian's rule over the four states.

The most effective way to deal with this behavior is to conduct demographic statistics and incorporate all populations into rule. Each demographic statistics can lead to at least tens of thousands of additional people in a county and country.

In addition to registering the population every year, Chutian sent troops to disperse various manors and resettle villagers in various villages and towns, weakening the influence of local tyrants on civilians and placing civilians under the direct rule of the government. Local tyrants dared to resist, and the Four Tigers of the Northern Army led a large army to level the forts of local tyrants.

Now the four states no longer need the powerful to protect civilians. The government will provide protection for civilians and allocate wasteland.

Not only that, Chu Tian strictly restricted the practice of various aristocratic families or merchants to support their customers, so he introduced the "Restriction of Customers Order". Anyone who hires customers must register with the government and cannot exceed a certain number.

Some people dare to raise knights in Xia City, which is simply provoking Chu Tian’s authority.

Cao Cao asked, "I wonder who is recruiting the heroes in Xiacheng?"

Xu You said in confusion: "It should be a young man from the east of the city. Could it be that the Yanzhou Mu gave him the opening of the mansion or some privileges?"

Cao Cao shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."

Cao Cao's eyes were a little surprised.

Chu Tian is not like a monarch who would announce the "restricted guest order" on the surface and then secretly give privileges to some people.

Chu Tian can rise up and will not commit such a taboo unless Cao Cao sees the wrong person.

"Let's go to the east of the city to meet this person for a while."

Cao Cao took advantage of the drunkenness and planned to go with Xu You to see who dared to recruit guests during the period when Chutian implemented the "Restricted Guest Order".

In the east of the city, there was indeed a large family recruiting strangers and posting notices in front of the mansion.

"Anyone with a skill can be a disciple."

When Cao Cao saw the notice, he looked at Xu You and became more curious about the identity of his master.

Eight big men with bare hands stood around the gate and stopped Cao Cao and Xu You.

They glanced at the short Cao Cao and Xu You who were powerless, and stopped them: "You two don't look like good people. Do you have a skill? If you are just ordinary skills, then you are not worthy of being a skill. Leave quickly."

Cao Cao was a side general, and the commander of the legion was despised by the guards. He couldn't help but be angry: "Is it a skill to command thousands of troops and pacify the Central Plains?"

Xu You was also angry: "Is it considered a skill to plan and win thousands of miles away?"

It is rare for two people to wear a pair of pants.

No matter what, it is really a shame to be underestimated by the other party like this.

"Go and go, don't say anything here. What a identifiable person we young master is, unless you can compete with ten thousand people, or some tricks of chicken crowing and dog stealing, you can get our young master's eyes."

The guardian thought Cao Cao and Xu You were just here to cause trouble, and planned to bomb Cao Cao and Xu You away.

If Xia Cheng had not implemented the "Sword Hunting Order" and confiscated the weapons of everyone except the army and civil officials (only those who can wear swords), these big men would directly expel Cao Cao by swords.

Cao Cao became more and more curious about where the owner came from. He turned his little eyes a few times and said to Xu You: "We must find a way to enter this courtyard, or try to lead the owner out of it."

Xu You asked, "Are you going to have a plan?"

Cao Cao was ruthless: "Set a fire."

"Ahem... the two of you will directly report your names, and these servants will lead two of you in."
