At this moment, as long as Chen Xi tacitly consented, those tenant farmers who had once been dependents of the aristocratic families would, under the direction of these families, migrate to the Northeast.
Then even if the common people wanted to curse their misfortune, they wouldn't be able to blame Chen Xi and Liu Bei. With numerous aristocratic families sharing the common resentment and with Chen Xi covertly dispersing land to the commoners through the aristocratic families, the situation was set.
Essentially, by that time the development of the Northeastern Great Plain would be a certainty, and both the commoners and the aristocratic families would have received what they were due. The government's pressure and internal conflicts would thus be alleviated.
