Seeing that the businessman was like this, Tan Zhen did not have any worries about transporting grain.

There is no problem with shipping, but there is no need to worry about the affairs of southern Jiangsu, and northern Jiangsu is left.

Jiangsu is not big, but southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu are two completely different worlds.

Under the prosperity of Songjiang is the poverty along the Yellow River in northern Jiangsu, and the famine brought about by small-scale breaches almost every year, makes the land annexation in northern Jiangsu much faster than elsewhere.

Tan Zhen knew very well what this meant, and on his way to northern Jiangsu this time, he heard some rumors that were extremely scary.

In northern Jiangsu, where the Yellow River is flooding, there is such a "strange" story now circulating.

The protagonist of this story is called Fan Dan.

Just talking about this name, of course Tan Zhen knows it.

Northern songs and some lotus flowers are often sung in the middle of the fall: Shi Chonghao is rich and Fan Dan is poor, and he is lucky early and late in the evening. Peng Zushou has a short life, and the six of them are all in the five elements.

He also knew that this person was a historical figure, a famous man in the Han Dynasty, because of the disaster of the party, he did not want to go along with the gang, and lived by begging, and was regarded as the patron saint of beggars.

However...... The Fan Dan sung in northern Jiangsu, Anhui and other places is not this Fan Dan.

Instead, he borrowed the allusion of Fan Dan asking for food, and distorted another story: Confucius was trapped in Chen Cai and borrowed grain.

In this story, Confucius sent Gongye Chang to borrow grain, and Gongye Chang asked Fan Dan, who was a beggar, to borrow grain.

The celebrities of the Eastern Han Dynasty were used in the Spring and Autumn Period, just like Li Jing became the King of Tota, the history is too long, and the dynasties are chaotic, and the people can't tell the difference.

The real horror of this story lies in the dialogue after borrowing grain: Confucius said, I borrowed your grain, and I will pay you back in the future, and if I can't find you, I will return it to your family; Fan Dan said, I am the one who asks for food, and the people who have no food in the world are my family.

This story is widely spread in the Huanghuai flooded area where there are many people who want to eat? The last dialogue in the story? Tan Zhen knows too well the power contained in this.

This sentence makes the poor eat the big family...... With legitimacy. Although only the legitimacy of the poor what they think they are? But it lightens the moral constraints.

But where are the big ones? There are people in the family who read scriptures, so they are all disciples of Confucius.

But beggars? It is said that it is Fan Dan's family, so Chen Cai's promise when he borrowed grain? Is it effective? Because Confucius did not repay Fan Dan's food in the story, the disciples of Confucius had to repay the debt to Fan Dan's family.

But whoever reads the books of the sages is a disciple of the Master, and no one dares to deny this.

What does Confucius owe? Looking for you guys to return? Shouldn't it?

After a disaster, a breach, and the Yellow River opened again, there was no food to eat, and groups went to large households to eat large households, isn't it natural to repay debts, repay ancestral debts, and grandchildren?

The wisdom of the people is infinite, but Tan Zhen did not feel this at this time? Instead, he lamented that once Huaishang suffered a catastrophe one day, it was likely to be a large-scale uprising.

The Luo Sect founded at the end of the Ming Dynasty, or the White Lotus Sect, which did not rebel for a day and was uncomfortable, or the Luo Sect that evolved from *** all have a huge mass base in Huai.

And this story of "Confucius asked Fan Dan to borrow grain and didn't pay it back" found a rationality for rebellion when he couldn't survive in the future.

What did Dashun start on? Which of the officials in the Dashun court is not clear?

Eat his mother, and his mother, and the king will not pay for food when he comes.

This slogan alone? It's also a bit like a "bandit".

But the slogan of "Confucius does not repay debts, we are not robbing big households, we just want debts"? Is that extremely reasonable? The last bit of "moral" guilt is gone.

Now in northern Jiangsu, Anhui, and southern Lunan, everything is ready.

The slogan is there, the rationality is there, the organization has Luojiao, *** and the White Lotus Sect, and the leaders are directly and there are religious leaders who are ready-made, and the land annexation caused by small-scale floods and canal repairs and requisitioning people is far better than other places...... The firewood and grass have been poured with oil, and now a major natural disaster is missing.

This kind of crisis is in stark contrast to the prosperity of Songjiang, Tan Zhen was promoted in the southwest by reforming the land and returning to the stream, and he understands that this kind of thing cannot be delayed, and the later it is delayed, the easier it is to have a big incident.

The imperial court must show the determination to cut the meat and solve the problem of the canal and the Yellow River, so as to maintain peace forever.

He wants to be a loyal minister, a minister, for the sake of the long-term peace and stability of the dynasty, and do something that is beneficial to the present and the future.

Can be reversed...... Tan Zhen also knew that if the uprising happened to break out at the stage of abolishing the sea and replacing it with the sea, or if the short-term pain of the abolition and reform of the sea accelerated the local contradictions......

Is this responsibility borne by these people who have abolished the water and changed the sea?

Can you afford this body?

After thinking about it for a long time, Tan Zhen still kept a hand.

Before the first batch of grain ships set sail, Tan Zhen pretended to talk to Chen Qinghai about Huaishang again.

It can be regarded as a pretext to play, and he is sure that Chen Qinghai will pass on these things to Liu Yu.

Although Liu Yu and him are both festival envoys, the two of them are not the same. Liu Yu is a noble out of town, and he is a party of the festival.

Tan Zhen felt that there were some things that Liu Yu said better.

After all, the many interests of this abolition and reform of the sea are closely related to Liu Yu.

If those who benefit don't come out to stand on the platform and resist things, who will resist? Anyway, it is decided that Liu Yu will definitely support it, so it is better to play a striker, take the lead, and set off another court discussion on shipping and shipping.

…………

After the grain ship arrived at Liugong Island, the warship no longer escorted it.

Chen Qinghai passed Tan Zhen's message to Liu Yu, and repeated Tan Zhen's seemingly "unintentional" words before leaving.

After listening to Chen Qinghai relay the story of "Fan Dan and Confucius", Liu Yu knew that the Huaibei matter may have been backlogged for too long, from the Song Dynasty to the present, and a characteristic culture has been formed.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there was a big incident in Huaishang, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was not stable here, and the result of the normalization of the rebellion was to create such a legitimate reason for the survival of such a "justifiable" eating big households.

However, those religions such as the White Lotus Sect are not very good at combat, and the imperial court has also grasped it very tightly, this time banning Catholicism, and strictly investigating the internal Luo Sect and White Lotus.

If the uprising wants to be combative, it must have the participation of those who have served as soldiers. And the abolition of the sea and the dismantling of the old army will intensify the fighting power of this uprising with every step.

Things are universally connected.

Shipping, military reform, scrapping, overseas trade, Songjiang portization...... These seem to have nothing to do with the Yellow River, but in fact, each of them has a huge relationship.

Whether this matter is a good thing or a bad thing for Liu Yu to do is worth careful consideration.

Tan Zhen means that when the Jiedu envoy entered Beijing to perform affairs, Tan Zhen, as the envoy of Jiangsu Jiedu, justifiably raised the issue of Cao Yun and river defense, which is a matter of duty.

But later, he inadvertently said to Chen Qinghai about the hidden crisis in Huaibei, which must have deep meaning, do you need to cooperate with yourself?

How does this work?

found Kang Buxi, talked about Tan Zhen's worries, and mentioned the crisis in Huaishang, Kang Buxian smiled and said: "This Jiangsu festival makes Lord Tan have a good vision. ”

"Childe, please see, the world is so big, it is nothing more than divided into eight places: southeast, northwest, northeast, southeast, northwest, southwest, southwest, southwest. In the world, this dynasty started in the northwest and succeeded in the Central Plains. The crisis of this dynasty, as this Lord Tan said, only Huaishang is the most dangerous. ”

"The Central Plains is flat, and those who cause trouble have not made things happen in the Central Plains. All start from all directions, and when the forces become and dominate the Central Plains, it will become a big thing. ”

"In the northwest, the Western Regions are pacified, and the Hetao is recovered, all of them can be immigrated and colonized Mongolia. Gongzi borrowed a knife to kill people, stayed in the Zhun Department and the Yellow Sect, isolated the Sufis and the Hanafi faction, and had no worries in the northwest. ”

"The southeast is rich, needless to say."

"In the northeast, the land is vast and sparsely populated, the alien race has been wiped out, the Mongols have surrendered, the fortress post station, the rakshasa squeeze, and there is no danger."

"In the southwest, all ethnic groups live together, and it is difficult to achieve great things. Changing the land and returning to the stream, all of them are small chaos, and it is difficult for the Han people and the small clan to stand together. ”

"In the south, the dispute between the Turks and the Turks has existed since then. It's just that the imperial court opened the sea ban, and there were many people who went to sea to make a living. ”

"Therefore, if there is really a great chaos that shakes the world, if there is chaos in this dynasty, it will start in Huaishang."

"However, just looking at Huaishang, it's nothing. After all, the Huaishang chaos is also the easiest to quell down. ”

"It's just that Huai Shang is in chaos, the imperial court mobilizes and suppresses, and the suppression elsewhere is insufficient, so Huai Shang is in chaos, and it is most likely to be the first in the world; But in the end, it was Huaishang who made the world collapse. ”

Kang Buxian's study of the uprisings in the thousand-year-old history is more thorough than Liu Yu's, especially the situation in the Sulu, Anhui, and Henan regions, and he is even more based on history.

"If Huaishang is chaotic, it is Jiangnan to the south. Jiangnan is rich, and he will not follow, this is one of them. ”

"Since the Song Dynasty, the Yellow River has been diverted, the water network is vertical and horizontal, and it is divided into small pieces by the canal and the Yellow River. There are heavy troops in the Gyeonggi area, and they can't go north, but they can't go south. However, if the imperial court wants to go deep into pacification, it is difficult to be afraid. Most of them have to be deployed along the river, with the help of canals, the Yellow River and many other waterways, the chaos in Huaishang can be trapped in Huaishang. ”

"The space for flickering and moving is too small, and if something happens in Huaishang, it will be the king's pioneer."

"However, if you are trapped in Huaishang, the canal will be cut off and the north and south will be separated."

"The north and the south are separated, the imperial court wants to control the south, the navy is the first priority of the imperial court, and the matter of shipping can be accomplished. Especially under the premise that the shipping was so smooth this time, the imperial court had less worries about shipping. ”

"I think this Lord Tan's worries are actually a good thing."

Kang Buxian's words are enough to lose his head.

That is, in front of Liu Yu, it is obvious that what he said is obvious.

Liu Yu didn't care too much about this terrible thought.

At the beginning, in front of the emperor, he also had a moment in his heart, and he was "looking forward to" the catastrophe of the Yellow River, diverting his route to the north, and the natural disaster cut off the transportation, so that the imperial court had no choice but to change the terrible idea of shipping and controlling the Huanghuai.

He and Kang Buxian have similar thoughts, one is waiting for natural disasters, and the other is waiting for chaos.

The judgment of the imperial court felt like pushing and grinding to drive a donkey, whipping the imperial court, and the imperial court moved a step forward.

It's just that what Kang Buxian values is the status of the navy.

It is believed that if something happens to Huaishang, the navy will become an important force and a general colleague in the imperial court's control of the south, and Liu Yu, who will single-handedly form the navy, will also be stable and can speak with more weight.

Kang Bushu didn't feel that he had gone too far, and the possible disaster in Huaishang had nothing to do with him, and it was not caused by him.

He felt that it was just a matter of facts.

But Liu Yu knew in his heart that this matter had nothing to do with him. As long as there is no such a big natural disaster as the diversion of the Yellow River to Shandong, the greatest possibility of an accident in Huaishang is really the abolition of Cao and the transformation of the sea, and Songjiang as an export center and the source of initial industrialization.

If Dashun catches up with and surpasses the speed of the Industrial Revolution in Britain......

Unlike the Manchus, the Manchus were under the impact of external forces, and Guangdong's role as a treaty port led to the most serious initial impact on small farmers and handicrafts in Liangguang, which to some extent contributed to the great uprising in Guangxi. If Dashun goes to the industrial revolution independently, Songjiang, as the center of the textile industry, will have the greatest impact, the weakest bearing capacity, and the first to get into trouble, it must be Huaishang.

Therefore, is it not to take precautions and solve the Huaishang first, so that the impact of initial industrialization on small farmers in the future will not seem so dangerous to the imperial court?
