Chapter 331: Expired and Void

Everybody says that. The whole \ book / small \ said / net is very raw. Righteous deeds to Gan Fan Gong and adults... The project is in favor, don't say that you can do your best, even if you scatter all your wealth, you have no regrets. Yang Chengping said, his tone was sincere, obviously not pretending to be polite.

In fact, according to Yang Chengping's intentions, he is very much in favor of the governance of the West Lake, because if the water of the West Lake dries up, it is easy to favor the blockage of the canal, if the water source of the West Lake is deep and wide, then the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal can be kept unimpeded with lake water, but once the lake water is insufficient, the canal water has to be taken from the river tide, but the river tide enters the river, the sediment is turbid, and the canal is silted, which is a serious problem for the Yang family firm that transports goods by water all the year round, so from the long-term interests, In fact, the governance of West Lake is to eliminate future troubles from the root.

You must know that the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is the main artery connecting the north and south, once blocked, the consequences can not be underestimated, can only be thinned every year, which brings another equally serious problem, because the canal runs through the city up to 14 or 5 miles, every time the construction starts, not only the people and money, but also the construction of the excavated soil, not easy to transport out of the city, always piled up in front of the house behind the house, but also to the surrounding residents in the city in favor of environmental troubles.

However, the cost of dredging the canal was forcibly apportioned to Fu Shen in Hangzhou, if it was really to control the river, then they also admitted it, but the cycle was repeated every year, the money and food were sufficient, and the canal was never repaired, how could this not make them disheartened, thinking that those officials were treating them as chickens, and they would ask them for eggs if they wanted to eat eggs.

Therefore, Fan Zhongyan's desire to govern the West Lake has indeed harmed their interests to a certain extent, but the Fushen people are not all short-sighted people, and they still see the long-term benefits and solve the problem from the source.

As long as they are not stupid, the Fushen people also know what choice to make, the question is, whether Fan Zhongyan's move is really for the people, or is it the same as the previous officials, just using the guise of opening the lake to make profits from it, it's not that they don't believe in Fan Zhongyan's reputation, but in a hurry, they naturally hesitated.

The psychology of the rich and middle-aged people is very complicated, on the one hand, they believe that Fan Zhongyan's personality is definitely different from the corrupt officials in the past. On the one hand, it goes without saying that the money and food for controlling the lake must be apportioned to everyone, and the thought of digging their own fields and demolishing their own houses at their own expense is simply a double layer of flesh pain, and what long-term interests are suddenly left behind.

However, since they were invited, these rich people were more or less mentally prepared, knowing that this level must be inevitable, but they wanted to open it, pretending to be reluctant on the surface, but in fact, they had already been a little calm in their hearts, otherwise where would they have the psychology to watch the beautiful women singing and dancing, however, although Fu Shen was willing to bleed. But in order to prevent being opened wide by the lion. I still have to make an appearance.

Hearing Yang Chengping's words, Chu Zhen of course expressed his gratitude and admiration in a timely manner, and praised Yang Chengping again and again for understanding the righteousness, he didn't know those rich thoughts, and the reason why he came to Yang Chengping to understand the situation was that he was afraid that these people would pretend to be poor later. And Yang Chengping is also willing to sell personal favors to Chu Qian, and carefully instructs him, most of them are opponents in the business field, and he is not worried about not knowing the details of the other party.

Just when the two were talking happily, there seemed to be a new movement on the stage at the banquet, and I saw a few gorgeously dressed people fluttering in, but we sang softly, but it was the most famous Luojiaban drama in Hangzhou at present.

Since the stage was provided by Chu quality to provide the material. After Bai Jinyu perfected the Liang Zhu drama, Luojiaban suddenly became popular, it was three points more red than the burning clouds, not to mention that the theater was overcrowded every day, and when the party feasted, if it was not invited to come to help, the banquet grade would be a little inferior.

At the banquet, of course, it is not suitable to perform such a tragedy as Liang Zhu, but once the troupe becomes famous, as long as the drama staged is not too bad, out of psychological effect, it can always win the applause of the audience, and the fact is also true, when the Luojia class performers finished the curtain call, Fu Shen in the audience high-fived and applauded, but suddenly, the audience was silent. But it was Fan Zhongyan who arrived.

"I've seen Fan Gong."

"Too polite"

No matter what thoughts in their hearts, at this moment, everyone greeted them one after another, surrounded by Fan Zhongyan, who was full of spring breeze and pleasant face, a good scene of harmony and happiness between the government and the people, and after a while, under the graciously invitation of everyone, Fan Zhongyan sat down gently, which also heralded the beginning of the banquet, and the Kabuki people temporarily retreated, and there was no need for anyone to order, there were many servants serving delicious food.

The first glass of wine, naturally saluted Fan Zhongyan. Represented by several prestigious old and wealthy people in Hangzhou, they first thanked the emperor for letting Fan Gong go to Hangzhou, which was a blessing for the local people, especially under the wise leadership of Fan Gong, finally defeated the drought, and Hangzhou returned to the peace of the past, for this reason, they wanted to pay tribute to Fan Gong on behalf of the people of Hangzhou.

Generally speaking, toasts are often seven points empty and three points real, but this time the reversal has turned around, and the thanks to Fan Zhongyan are sincere, except for those grain merchants at the beginning.

After three glasses of wine before the banquet, the song and dance started again, but this time no one appreciated the performance of the beauties on the stage, but focused on Fan Zhongyan, after all, with his vigorous and resolute character, he likes to get straight to the point in everything, and he will definitely not go around like other officials.

Sure enough, the cup hadn't been down for long. At Fan Zhongyan's gesture, Gu Kezhi stood up with a smile, and before he could speak, everyone was ready to come to the meat show, and they all raised their spirits and listened attentively.

"What do you think of this place?" Gu Kezhi asked and answered: "Elegant and quiet, lush, beautiful and natural, sitting in this place, you can enjoy the lake and mountains on all sides, and it is the scorching sun, and the cool breeze is also here, it is really a rare summer resort in Hangzhou, you think so." ”

Only a few people nodded, and at first glance, most of Fu Shen knew what he wanted to say, after all, Chu Zhen's remarks that West Lake was in danger had already spread, how could they not know.

"Cry! Jeopardy! Seeing that Fu Zhong didn't cooperate, Gu Kezhi didn't care, and said with a sad face: "Such a beautiful scenery is about to disappear, like a person losing his eyebrows, but I don't know if you can be indifferent." ”

Of course it can, this is the voice of most rich people, but on the surface, it is still necessary to give Gu Tong a few faces, so he has to shake his head slightly with his conscience, and his movements are very slow, if he doesn't watch carefully, he can't detect it at all.

Of course, Gu Tong's officialdom of decades was not in vain, directly ignoring everyone's actions, and when they all agreed with their opinions, he immediately said with a smile: "I am in office." Determined to open the lake to defend the party. The official family is shengming. Knowing that the West Vortex (collapsed right, he immediately approved the fold and agreed with Fan Gong's move.

After a deliberate pause, finding that there was no expected applause, Gu Kezhi smiled a little embarrassedly, and quickly said calmly: "However, after all, opening the lake is not only a matter of the government, but also the stakes are related to the people of Hangzhou City, especially you, some of them. ”

This is not a threat, but to tell the truth, thirty miles on the shore of the West Lake, I don't know how many houses have been built, and there are some low-lying areas, which have been occupied by others, transformed into fertile land, and some are even worse, privately digging open ditches and culverts to divert water to irrigate their own fields, and now Fan Zhong floods the lake, and is bound to correct this misconduct, how can this be willing, if it is not for Fan Zhongyan's prestige is still there, afraid of his means, it may be the first time to stand up and express opposition, that is, some officials in the official office.

The rich Zhong were silent, even if they were prepared, but they heard the meaning of Gu Kezhi's words with their own ears, even if they understood that the meaning was indicated by Fan Zhongyan, but they didn't say anything, anyway, Gu Kezhi didn't point it out, and they were happy to pretend to be confused there, and it would be a while if they could delay it for a while.

glanced at Fan Zhongyan, and found that he was closing his eyes to recuperate, and still had no other words, Gu Kezhi was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't do anything about asking for money and food, only in his heart he scolded those Fu Shen, who was usually so shrewd, and actually pretended to be stupid at a critical moment, and when he didn't know what to do, he saw Chu Zhen next to him, as if he had been savior, and hurriedly gave him a look.

Chu Zhen nodded lightly, stood up, coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "Governing the West Lake is a matter of merit in the present and beneficial to the future, and one of the disadvantages of the West Lake is,"

Listing a few reasons for governing the West Lake, he found that Fu Shen was unmoved, and Chu Zhen was not angry, which was also expected, and after saying a few words, he said directly: "However, due to the relief of the victims some time ago, the granary of the official government treasury is vacant, and there is no extra money and grain for the purpose of opening the lake

After the matter was accomplished, as last time, Fan Gong must present the matter to the official family to show his appreciation to Chu Qian, and his tone was full of temptation and hints: "When the official government compiles the local chronicles, it will record the deeds of the public in detail and print them all over the world." ”

Hearing this, the rich and the rich people immediately refueled and speeded up, last time because of the help of the official government to stabilize the price of grain, some scholars were commended by the official government, and were engraved and remembered by the tablet, which made many people envious and jealous in their hearts, and now they heard that they also have this kind of opportunity, how can they not be moved, especially in the latter sentence, enter the local chronicles, and print the world, this is a famous history.

Thinking of this, many people couldn't sit still anymore, their faces were red and their ears were hot, their breathing began to be heavier, and they couldn't help but whisper a few words to others and exchange opinions with their friends.

Just when everyone hesitated, Yang Chengping stood up and said with righteousness: "Thanks to Fan Gong, I sincerely invite us to participate in the righteous act, not only did not persecute it, but politely discussed, wanting me to make a name for myself, but a small people, although I don't understand right and wrong, but I know how to repay Fan Gong's kindness, so I am willing to take out "money and wealth to help Fan Gong open the lake." ”

Don't think that Yang Chengping is just a trust, in fact, he is hinting that the Fushen people should know the current affairs, reminding them that compared to the official government, they are just small people, and if they speak politely, it is to save face, if it is forcibly apportioned, you will not be able to do it, this money will still be obtained in the end, it is better to be interesting, take the initiative to donate, and leave a good reputation.

Such a simple and easy-to-understand hint, as long as the brain is not stupid, you can understand it by slipping around twice, and the rich people also understand this truth, so they have to make up their minds to respond, but they saw Chu Zhen said excitedly: "Yang Dongzhu is really a righteous man,"

Yes, the rich and middle-aged people feel the same way, these years, I have never seen this kind of money many people stupid, as the saying goes: family wealth, that is to describe people rich and rich, ordinary people may not be able to earn so much money in a lifetime, but he donated it all at once, not a righteous man, it must have just been kicked by a donkey.

Just when some people were maliciously mocking, Chu Zhen walked up to Fan Zhongyan and deliberately raised his voice and said: "Taishou, Yang Dong's actions are commendable, should he be rewarded?" ”

Reward, the rich and middle-aged people immediately pricked up their ears, and even Yang Chengping was surprised, Chu Zhen didn't tell himself that there was this just now, but he had some doubts in his heart, the official government even had money and food to donate, and what kind of reward could he get, wouldn't it be to return the money he donated as a favor.

That was natural, Fan Zhongyan opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said calmly: "Merit must be rewarded, and good deeds must be rewarded, that is the principle of the old man."

Xiaomin's move, out of his heart, conforms to public opinion, and does not dare to expect Fan Gong's reward. Yang Chengping hurriedly said with sincere fear.

"Yang Dongzhu's benevolence and righteousness are well known in Hangzhou City, but the reward is still needed." Chu Zhen chuckled and said: "But now that the official office is in short supply, the physical reward will be kept for the time being, and I will talk about it later, and I ask Dong Yang to forgive me."

It's really false, some people gloated, and before they could smile, they heard Chu Zhen continue: "The only thing that the official can get hold of is only a survey, I hope that Yang Dongzhu will not dislike it." ”

After speaking, Chu Zhen waited respectfully aside, only to see Fan Zhongyan smile and take out a post similar to an invitation from his arms, and gestured slightly, since someone offered pen and ink, gently unfolded, Fan Zhongyan took the pen and wrote a few words on it, and took the Zhizhou seal kept by the strong and healthy officials beside him, sealed it in red, and then handed it to Chu Qian.

Taking the post with both hands, Chu Zhi walked to Yang Chengping's side with a spring breeze on his face, and said with a smile: "This survey itself is not worth much, but there is an inscription and seal on it, which should be of some use, I hope it can satisfy Yang Dongzhu." ”

"It is written by Fan Gong himself, and it is a hard-to-find thing, after inviting him home, he will definitely regard it as an heirloom Yang Chengping said, and he has some expectations in his heart.

"The gift is gone, what to do with it is your business." Chu Zhen handed the post to Yang Chengping seemingly casually, and said with a light smile: "But I kindly remind you that the survey is valid for three months, and it will be invalid after expiration."

What is the matter, there is still a deadline, Yang Chengping was puzzled, took the post, looked down carefully, his eyes were round when he stared, and he looked incredulous.

When others saw this, they couldn't help but be curious, so they watched it closely, and read lightly: "Tax-free and diligent."
