Times have changed!

With the development of printing, the era of scholars controlling public opinion is gone, and whoever can control the press will control public opinion.

With the advent of the "insider", conspiracy theories began to emerge one after another.

Based on human nature, everyone doesn't want to believe that things are just as simple as Guo Dan's revenge, so what's the value of talking about it. If the White Lotus Sect colludes with the powerful people in the DPRK and China to provoke war, this will obviously be more exciting.

Although Xu Weizhi and Wan Jian were also struggling desperately, they used the mouths of others to question if it was the collusion between the powerful and the White Lotus Sect, then why did they bomb Wan Shilang's mansion and Wei Guogong's granary.

They are also among the powerful.

But without waiting for Wang Xijue to exert his strength, the people have already given a variety of explanations.

The reason for this is to provoke a war, what's the point of blowing up a sesame petty official?

Some people also questioned in turn, who was the real culprit of the murder before, even if Guo Dan retaliated, he shouldn't have looked for Wan Shilang and Wei Guogong, could it be that they did it?

If not, what is Guo Dan's purpose?

Is Guo Dan crazy?

Of course, no one believed that Guo Dan wanted to provoke a war, and he bought so much in Nanzhili.

Xu Weizhi and other powerful people were very speechless.

The more simple questions come from, the more complicated they become.

But they themselves did not dare to speak out.

And Wang Xijue couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this situation, this is really a godsend, he constantly uses conspiracy theories and all kinds of entrainment of private goods to promote the new deal.

He first recommended the tricameral system.

He said that he would set up three courts in Nanzhili to deal with civil criminal cases.

But he also left an opening, that is, if there are officials and powerful people involved in the case, they still have to be handed over to Dali Temple and the Criminal Department for final trial.

In this way, the officials are not very opposed.

However, this has caused a lot of discussion.

The discussion is not about the system itself, because everyone has long known about this system, and there is nothing unusual about it, but about the question of the selection of the gentry.

Wang Xijue grasped the weakness of everyone's pursuit of fame, and repeatedly said that the gentry must be virtuous and noble people.

Everyone is talking about who will be elected.

In other words, they are talking about who is the most virtuous.

In the eyes of the literati, this is simply the supreme glory, representing everyone's best affirmation of him.

Literati can be good at this bite.

Most of the gentry were against it, but now they all came forward and let their disciples promote themselves.

The magnates were made so afraid of the White Lotus Sect that they didn't dare to speak out, the gentry became active again, and the bureaucracy had already turned to Wang Xijue, because that shot really frightened them, and also made them see Guo Dan's threat, and they all agreed that the officials should be united, and this great enemy is present, and internal strife will be talked about later.

In this way, Wang Xijue is equivalent to controlling the whole audience.

But he is still facing a big problem, that is, how to confront Guo Dan, an important basis for his ability to unite people's hearts is this Guo Dan threat theory, but so far, he has not adopted a policy of suppressing Guo Dan, Guo Dan is living a very nourishing life.

He must use Guo Dan to establish his authority, but this is not easy to say.

So he decided to consult a master.

This master is --- Guo Dan.

This bell must be tied to the bell!

A no-tooth line!

"Lord Wang, you are a fierce man, you are really slippery! Dividing five by two solves the problem, and I want to take a few more days off. Guo Dan shook his head and complained.

Will the sky be a man? Aunt Xu on the side pursed her lips and secretly glanced at Wang Xijue.

Wang Xijue snorted: "You don't taunt me here, I know that if it weren't for you, I would not be able to succeed, but at present, it is only a superficial success, and I am still facing a problem." ”

Guo Dan asked, "What kind of problem?" ”

Wang Xijue said: "It's how to suppress your arrogance." ”

Guo Dan and Aunt Xu were not surprised by this.

In the game of Fat House, they have to be opposed, and the opposition is good for both of them, not bad.

The key is how to oppose each other.

Guo Dan said depressedly: "My lord, you came to me to ask me about this kind of thing, are you disgusting me?" ”

Wang Xijue said: "This official is not so boring, if I really use my power to deal with you, I am afraid that you will go to your majesty to cry out again, but if I don't deal with you, they will not believe my words." ”

It's obvious that you can't deal with it, but it's so high-sounding. Guo Dan sneered: "My lord's words are reasonable, in fact, I left a trick for my lord, just in case I need it!" ”

Aunt Xu looked at Guo Dan sideways, she was surprised, she was not unaware, Guo Dan left a hand for this.

"Say it!" Wang Xijue was not surprised, although he had a request from Guo Dan, but this was a matter for both parties, not one party, because their big bosses were all fat houses, and Guo Dan must definitely think more about this.

Guo Dan said: "At the salt merchants' conference, I promised the salt merchants that I would integrate the salt market and privatize the entire salt industry, so that the salt merchants would have the power to make and sell salt. ”

Wang Xijue frowned and said, "So you're lying to them?" ”

Guo Dan shook his head and said: "Of course not, for me, privatization is obviously a better choice, as long as privatization, my voice is very large, but for the imperial court, this nationalization is obviously a better choice, which can not only bring huge profits to the imperial court, but also serve as a strategic material for the imperial court." But these two options are very hostile, and as a landmark event to suppress me, it is undoubtedly the best. ”

Wang Xijue frowned, and sighed: "Regarding the salt industry, this... Alas... You also know that this government is a mess, this official salt is not as good as private salt, and it is more expensive than private salt, which makes the people complain, this salt is not only related to national income, but also about people's livelihood, if it is done well, everyone is happy, but if it can't be done, the country will damage the people, it is really difficult to choose! ”

The implication is that he is willing to contract the salt industry to Guo Dan.

The official camp of the Ming Dynasty was really a mess, and I don't know why, it just couldn't be played, the court wanted to make this money, but it didn't have this ability, it was far inferior to the Song Dynasty, the problem was that this part of the profits did not fall on the people.

If it is contracted to Guo Dan, on the one hand, it can increase tax revenue for the country, and on the other hand, it can benefit the people.

Guo Dan said: "I will help adults." ”

As he spoke, he got up and took out a document from a locked cabinet and handed it to Wang Xijue.

Wang Xijue was stunned for a moment, then took it and said, "I didn't expect you to be so well prepared." ”

"I've been practicing handwriting lately, and by the way, I can write." Guo Dan said with a smile.

Wang Xijue glanced at it and immediately said, "It doesn't seem to be very successful!" ”

Aunt Xu sneered.

Guo Dan glanced at her embarrassedly, and said, "This is not the key, don't care." The imperial court can monopolize the production of salt, and then learn from the model of my Yinuo Yaxing, set up several large groups according to the well salt and pond salt, and sell a small number of shares, give some merchants, and incorporate the merchants into the operation, a large number of shareholders can play a role in mutual supervision, and hire people to manage this large group, the imperial court is only responsible for the holding, but the operation, or to the management of talents in this area.

In addition, the position of the group is included in the imperial court system, that is, if this person does a good job, he can directly enter the financial center of the imperial court, and now His Majesty has also said that the imperial court lacks financial talents, so this position will inevitably be favored by talents.

As for whether there will be corruption, whether it is state-owned or private, as long as there is a lack of supervision, there will definitely be corruption, and there is no need to ask, because everyone's purpose is the same, that is, to make money, and businessmen may be more ruthless.

However, my COFCO is a big customer, and I can also supervise the salt industry to a certain extent, after all, I am the opposite of the government, and if there is a problem with the salt I buy, I will immediately file a complaint. ”

Wang Xijue listened and flipped through the information, which was written very specifically, not only the new production model can save a lot of costs, but also solve many problems encountered today, and even taught him how to bring down the smuggling of salt, that is, to frame the smuggling of salt is poisonous, if there is a smuggling salt poisoning incident, the court will not be responsible, the court is only responsible for the official salt, in order to revive the credibility of the official salt.

is worthy of being a profiteer, and he is really ruthless.

Wang Xijue couldn't help but say to Guo Dan: "You have already thought about it in such detail, why don't you fight for this salt profit?" I believe that there should be more than one way to create a conflict between you and me. ”

Guo smiled lightly: "The ancient sages said well, don't compete with the people, I have a reputation for a good tooth, but I have worked hard to get it, I don't want to be scolded by the people just because it has risen by a penny, this salt is a fragrant gluttony in the eyes of others, but in my opinion, it is a coffin." I am now working hard to manage my reputation, and then use my reputation to sell shares, not only to make money, but also to be fed, I don't need to bring money when I go out to eat, how cool! ”

Fang Cai was still a little moved, Wang Xijue was really angry when he heard it, and he was also moved, and said: "So this wicked person still wants the court to do it." ”

Don't compete with the people for profit, it has always been the court, what is your turn as a businessman.

Hearing this, he instead hoped to contract the salt to Guo Dan.

"Definitely! Definitely! ”

Guo Dan shook his head and said: "The reputation of the imperial court is already as stinky as the stones in the dung pit, in the eyes of the people, this court is not doing well, that is a matter of course, if it is done well, it is a miracle, the court can gain fame and fortune, isn't it beautiful." For me, salt profit is a deal that is destined to lose money, but for the imperial court, it is a sure profit, after all, the reputation of the imperial court has reached the lower limit. ”

Wang Xijue's face was blue and red when he heard this.

This kid's mouth is really poisonous!

But he didn't reprimand Guo Dan angrily, because of all these facts, which is why he is sitting here.

As Wanli said at the beginning, Guo Dan is a non-precious demon mirror, which can make all the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods in the court visible, and his ridicule is actually a kind of warning.
