Chapter 446: Unequal Treaties

Zhang Jing is an out-and-out optimist, carefree. Although I met a disciple who didn't grow up today, I dared to tail Miss I, hum.

But it's a very strange feeling to say, he just looks a little young, and it's a little funny to wear a hat crookedly, he still feels very good, and his appearance is relatively high. And has the backbone of a real literati, he is a model of "not afraid of the powerful", and he can still talk nonsense with his eyes open, but he is not too annoying.

Other wretched children, whether in Tokyo or North 1 Beijing, Zhang Jing has seen too much, all of them are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, dressed up with oily hair and powder, and wearing a hat quite positively, but the thinking in the brain is quite crooked, and it is still some soft-footed prawns.

Thinking about it, Zhang Jing hung up the wind chimes that were specially ordered in the market in the yard, and now it is the windy season, and the wind will jingle and jingle when the wind blows, which is very good.

Almost Zhang Fangping came into the yard, and saw his little daughter squatting on the ladder staring at the wind chimes in a daze, so he said: "Aren't you afraid of falling to death, climbing high and low all day long, like a woman?" ”

Zhang Jing ignored her father, and seeing that there was no wind now, she raised her hand and shook the wind chimes, so the bells jingled again.

Lao Zhang didn't know whether his daughter was happy or sad, so he asked, "Do you have something on your mind, might as well tell the old man?" ”

"It's not a matter of mind, I met a stunned young man in the market today, stupid, but it's very interesting." Zhang Jing shook the wind chime again.

Lao Zhang said with a strange expression: "Then what do you want to do with him?" ”

Zhang Jing thought about it for a while: "I don't want to do anything, it's okay to know that there is such a stunned young man here, and existence is the truth." ”

Zhang Fangping said dejectedly: "Since this is the case, then you still go to the county government to sue him?" It's all over the city right now, and many people are waiting to see the joke. ”

"Ah...... It turned out that Daddy knew. Zhang Jing said: "Then I won't tell you, this guy looks like a scholar, but it's very strange, he is a person who hates Tra, but in hindsight, he is not too much, but at that time, it was confirmed that he was a disciple, so he went to the county government to complain, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Fangping nodded with a strange expression: "You are not wrong about this, he is indeed a hateful existence, sometimes it is obviously a good word, but his style and style, when it comes out of his mouth, it is something that can make people angry." This is his characteristic. ”

Zhang Jing smiled: "It sounds like my father knows him, and he is a little partial to him, and he didn't bring someone to discount his leg?" ”

Zhang Fangping twisted his beard and said, "The old man really wants to discount his leg, and he really knows him." But that's not cost-effective, even if I get him to the Daimyo's Mansion, I have to rely on him to do things. ”

"Father really knows that stunned young man, who is he?" Zhang Jing said.

"He is Wang Yan." Zhang Fangping said with a smile.

"Ah, he's the one who started to produce results at the age of ten, achieved countless great things, and caused his father to be dismissed?" Zhang Jing's eyes widened, "That's right...... His "Iron Head Light" is not updated in the end, does he really need a eunuch? ”

"That's right, it's this calf." Zhang Fangping said, "As for whether his little white text is updated or not, the old man doesn't know and doesn't care." ”

……

Staying in the post house for the time being, it was because the bureaucrats of the Daimyo Mansion had not yet vacated Wang Yan's official residence.

In the evening, Zhang Fangping asked someone to send a post, calling him to go to his home for dinner.

How dare Da Yan go, he plans to hide for a while to avoid the limelight, and wait for Zhang Jing's anger to subside before going, otherwise it will definitely be no good thing.

continued to hide in a low-key manner for two days, Zhang Fangping asked people to send posts to shout to eat, and this time the big Yan was dispatched.

I dared to leave the nest this time, because I caught Zhang Fangping's housekeeper and bribed him with the usual money, and tortured the young lady to find out that the young lady was actually not angry, and by the way, she also asked the young lady to like some gadgets, so Da Yan made a kite as a gift, and then went to Zhang's house.

went to the backyard of the left-behind division and handed the kite to Zhang Jing first.

She looked very happy, and played with the kite for a while, but what she said almost froze the big bird, and she taught her in her sister's tone, "You have to be good." I heard everyone say that you are a waste material, you can't give up halfway in this kind of thing, take the opportunity to study more in North 1 Beijing, you can ask my father more about learning, you have to endure hardships to succeed, and it is possible to take a Jinshi exam in the future. ”

"Hehe's right, boy, you're depraved." When Zhang Fangping came into the yard, he and his daughter breathed out of one nostril.

Wang Yan was depressed for a while, but he could only listen to their golden and jade words and be taught, my mother's good life was afraid that it was over, it was estimated that Zhang Fangping was going to open a small stove, and stipulated that Da Yan came over every day to receive "personal education", and Da Yan felt that this was equivalent to the end.

Now that I am already the son of an official and a gentleman, I have a lot of money, and I have to go to the hanging beam to study those useless things, how desperate it is.

After YY was finished, Wang Yan bowed down and saluted: "Xiaguan Wang Yan, meet the left-behind minister." ”

Seeing that the first person of the new generation of the Great Song Dynasty gave his father a courtesy, Zhang Jing was very proud, and her anger was not heavy, and she felt that this kid was still very polite.

Zhang Fangping didn't care much about this, but he still twisted his beard and nodded frequently, carefully looking at the little kid who hadn't seen him for many years, this kid had a few ups and downs, but he was not completely cold, the limelight was getting stronger and stronger, and he was definitely the number one person in the new generation. So Lao Zhang has a sense of accomplishment in this, Wang Yan is Zhang Fangping's protΓ©gΓ©, and his rise can even be said to have nothing to do with his father, all supported by Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang pondered, and Wang Yan said again: "My father entrusted my little nephew to meet my uncle's descendants." ”

Zhang Fangping was not stupid, pointed to the little boy's nose and said: "You are cunning here, I know better than you what Wang Anshi's virtues are, he has hardened his wings now, and he is more and more criticizing my policies at that time." None of this is a secret. ”

Wang Yan was embarrassed for a while. Then, the beautiful green-clothed chick Zhang Jing also glared at her.

Khan, Wang Anshi, like Wang Yan, are also people who can pull hatred.

Lao Zhang is always Lao Zhang, very strong, does not give Wang Anshi face, and directly calls him "Wang Anshi".

Theoretically speaking, even now, Zhang Fangping's level is half a level higher than Wang Anshi's, and the stay in Beijing in the north is equivalent to the deputy national level of the envoy, and the privy envoy of the third secretary is the same level. Using the analogy of later generations, Lao Zhang is at least equal to the secretary of the magic capital, and he also holds the title of 1 member of the 1 political bureau.

As long as there is not much difference in rank, most of them give face to central officials, but Lao Zhang is now annoyed by some of Wang Anshi's ideas, so he doesn't give face.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Wang Anshi and annoyed by some of Wang Yan's thinking lines, Lao Zhang always loved this kid, and it can be said in recall: Lao Zhang's time in power was the most difficult juncture in the Great Song Dynasty, and it was really with this kid that he spent the most unlucky days of the Great Song Dynasty step by step.

Even now, when Zhang Fangping was writing his memoirs in the Daimyo Mansion, he dreamed several times at night that thousands of souls died in Huaixi at the hands of this little cool official, but when he thought about it, at that time, the country was worried about internal and external troubles, if this kid hadn't torn up the Huaixi black copper mine and injected new liquidity into the country, the mess in Guangnan would have dragged the entire finances to death.

The Gyeonggi Cold Defense War is also remembered in my heart, and the coal bosses were considered to have been baptized in blood in this kid's actions, Lao Zhang withstood the pressure from the national policy level, and then used his trading formula to make a lot of profits in the exchange. finally saved a small amount of funds, but when he took office in Funing County, Zhang Fangping made a big gamble and allocated 750,000 yuan from the level of the three divisions for him to take to the construction.

In the blink of an eye, the finances of a mere Funing County are almost comparable to those of a daimyofu with a population of one million. The most heart-wrenching thing is that Lao Zhang tightened his belt to gamble and won half of the equity of the Northwest Investment Bank, but it was sold cheaply in the follow-up operation of Wang Gongchen. So far, I'm afraid that only 20% of the equity is left?

The value of only 20% of the equity has greatly exceeded the 75 guan invested at that time, and in this way, Wang Gongchen actually dared to report this matter as a credit at the annual summary, and said in general terms: The equity of the three divisions of investment has appreciated significantly?

"Things are not people......"

In the wind in the yard, listening to the wind chimes hung by his daughter, recalling these, Zhang Fangping twisted his beard and said: "If you don't move around, the old man can't understand many things." Many people have forgotten what the old man has done, and they have forgotten what you have done. Now they have all begun to comment on the old man's mistakes and omissions one by one, taking them out of context. Han's brain shell is the most hateful, he put his own policy on the steel plate, and as a result, he blamed the old man for the acquiescence of Shaanxi's economic policy back then, why didn't he go to heaven? ”

Wang Yan hurriedly said: "Yes, these guys specialize in remembering other people's mistakes and omissions, ignoring the benefits, and they all wanted to get me in for review a while ago......"

Zhang Fangping sneered: "It wasn't a while ago, now they all want to, so do you understand why the old man got you?" Even if you have left, there are still tickets sent to me by the Criminal Department, so that I can 'go back across the province and explain the problem clearly'. ”

"Ahh Wang Yan jumped up in fright.

Lao Zhang scolded: "Don't be surprised, no one can invite you to tea without the permission of the old man here, so you have to repay the old man, go, let's go in and talk about it." ”

So obviously when it was time to eat, Lao Zhang didn't put the wine on the table, and dragged the big goose into the study.

In addition to being an optimist, Zhang Jing is also a gossip, so she curiously ambushed at the door of the study and eavesdropped on the conversation.

Immediately, Zhang Jing covered her face, feeling that her father was bad, and threatened and suppressed in the study, forcing Dayan to sign a lot of unequal treaties. Among them, Oyoshi had to bring its own funds to build a machinery factory and a smelter branch in the Daimyo Prefecture as soon as possible, and it was not allowed to bring in workers from other places, and it was necessary to hire people from Hokyo. By the way, there is no preferential tax rate, and the tax rate is higher than that of Funing County.

Continue to listen, Zhang Jing raised her two hands to cover her face together, Daddy really has no lower limit, although he promised to grant land, he will give as much as he wants, but the price of land transfer to Zhang Xiaoniu's ears is actually higher than the one he sold to a local business in Beijing.

However, these conditions, known as the treacherous and cunning Wang Yan, accepted them without exception, otherwise Zhang Fangping threatened: When you are "cross-provincial" by others, I, Lao Zhang, will not interfere. Although they can't kill you, but they can use a combination of political and judicial means to make you have no chance to do things at all, your youth and years will be wasted in endless investigations and lawsuits, and there is no chance to study, how can you take the exam?

Lao Zhang's forcing is not nonsense, there is a certain chance that it will happen. So the Great Bird accepted these alliances under the city.

The construction of machinery factories and smelter branches was imperative, and the Great Song Dynasty did not have many years of opportunity to squander, and now it seems that it is basically impossible to carry out in Bianjing. So if there is Lao Zhang's protection here, the rise and expansion will be very fast.

The most important point is that as the first important town of the Great Song Dynasty outside of Bianjing, the Daimyofu has enough labor and market to allow the development of enterprises.

Obviously, Zhang Fangping had already considered these things, even if the tax rate and land transfer price were slightly higher, the Daimyo Mansion had a natural market and manpower advantage over Funing County, and Wang Yan, the treasurer of the Industrial Bureau, could only compromise.

After signing all the unequal treaties, Lao Zhang was very satisfied, so he announced that he would have a meal and dragged the big goose out to eat.
