Chapter 204 Minfu Cup Sumo Tournament

After Zhang Junping finished giving the order, he threw another order stick to the ground.

"Whoa!"

Sun Xu and Li Hefeng stepped forward to pick up the order sign, took the official document and took the official servant to check the temples and Taoist temples in Muping County.

Zhang Junping's order, the large and small temples and Taoist temples in Muping County, have suffered.

In a temple and Taoist temple, there is no more than one-third of the degree.

Most of the others are fake Taoist priests and fake monks who have no degree.

The main purpose of entering the temple is to escape labor and taxes.

Of course, there are also some people who are sincere to the Tao and devote themselves to cultivation, but they just don't have the money to do it.

Da Song, it's really not cheap to handle it, and you can't do it without dozens of dollars!

After giving the order, Zhang Junping announced his retirement.

Not long after returning to Houya, the head of the ten major families came over again.

Because the conversation between Zhang Junping and them just now was not over, Zhang Junping had three things to explain to them just now.

As a result, as soon as he said the first thing, because the Wuye Temple refused to replace the land, Zhang Junping was angered, so he directly went to the court to ask about the case and sent someone to seal the Wuye Temple.

Now that the matter of the Wuye Temple has been sent to seal it down, it is natural to continue the topic just now.

After the head of the ten major families sat down, Zhang Junping continued: "Let's continue the topic just now, the matter of building reservoirs and canals, you ten families not only have to contribute money, but also efforts!"

You must take on your responsibilities as the top ten families in Muping County!

The construction of reservoirs and canals will definitely require a large number of people!

A large number of people gather together, and it is easy to have problems!

If it is instigated by people with ulterior motives, there is a risk of breaking out into chaos!

Throughout history, several large-scale rebellions have started with the conscription of the people!

For example, the peasant uprising at the end of the Qin Dynasty was not caused by a group of laborers?

Therefore, your ten major families must take an active role in stabilizing the hearts of the people!

Each family sent someone to be responsible for a part of the people, not only to organize them to do a good job, but also to do a good job of pacifying them! ”

When the people gather, it is very easy to be used by people with ulterior motives, and once they are used, the chaos caused will be small.

Zhang Junping had to tread carefully.

"Obey the orders of the county lord, the villain must send someone to organize the people and ensure that they will not make trouble!" The head of the ten major families hurriedly assured.

"Forget it, I guess there's nothing to do with you alone!

In this way, your ten families, plus some other wealthy squires, have all sent people to take charge of a team of people!

In his spare time, this official organizes a sumo wrestling tournament!

Your respective Minfu teams are represented in sumo wrestling tournaments!

The champion can get a reward of 100 acres of fertile land, a ploughing ox, and the team represented by the champion will be rewarded with 100 yuan for each citizen.

The runner-up has 50 acres of fertile land, a ploughing cow, and the team represented by the runner-up will be rewarded with 80 yuan per person!

The third runner-up has 50 acres of fertile land, and the team represented by the third runner-up will be rewarded with 50 per person! ”

"Lord Zhixian, how to do this sumo wrestling match?"

The ten families are a little confused, aren't they talking about building reservoirs and canals to prevent people from gathering to make trouble?

How did it suddenly turn into a sumo wrestling tournament?

Although sumo wrestling tournaments are very popular, there are sumo tournaments in many large cities.

"Tens of thousands of people gather together, and when they are idle, there will be trouble!

So, don't let them sit idle!

But we can't keep them resting and squeezing their labor to death!

So, this official organizes a sumo wrestling tournament!

It's to use sumo wrestling matches to tie their energy and not let them have extra energy to think twice!

Your ten families, as well as other wealthy squires in Muping County, are each responsible for a team of people!

And select representatives from the Minfu team to participate in the competition!

In this way, the teams will form a competitive and antagonistic relationship because of interests, even if someone provokes trouble, it will not succeed! ”

As soon as Zhang Junping explained this, the head of the top ten families immediately understood what he meant.

To put it bluntly, it is differentiation and co-optation.

"The county magistrate is wise!"

"The county magistrate is a good man!"

"The county magistrate's move is really wonderful!"

The heads of the ten major families have sent sycophants one after another, flattering Zhang Junping vigorously.

Zhang Junping smiled secretly, what is this, but I learned it from "The Lost Son of the Ming Dynasty".

"Well, that's all for the first thing!

Let's move on to the second thing!

I'm going to give you a great fortune!

But this great wealth needs sea ships! It has to be a sea-going ship!

Muping County is a Linhai county, and there must be many shipbuilding craftsmen in the county!

It's just that these shipbuilding craftsmen can build some offshore fishing boats!

It is not possible to build a sea ship that can go to the sea!

Therefore, I need you to mobilize the connections behind your respective families and recruit shipbuilders from other places, craftsmen who can build large sea ships! ”

"The county magistrate is going to sea?"

"That's right, this official is going to sea!

There are countless riches on the sea, and the gold and silver mines in Muping County can only be said to be a drop in the bucket compared to the wealth on the sea! ”

"The eldest lord of Qiqi Zhixian County, it is not the villain who questions the decision of the eldest lord, the villain has lived in Muping County for generations, and he has also begged for a living at sea!

Although the profits of going to sea are high, it is too dangerous!

Those merchants who crossed the sea from the vassal kingdom can be said to have risked their lives every time and experienced nine deaths before they could successfully cross the sea and come to our Great Song Dynasty......

I think back then, my Li family also organized to go to sea, wanting to make huge profits!

A total of three times were organized, each time ten boats went to sea, but in the end only one boat came back!

The villain was on that boat at the time, and he could be regarded as picking up a life......" The head of the Li family still had palpitations on his face when he said that he went to sea.

"Naturally, the officer knows the dangers of the sea!

In the sea, there is a saying that there is no wind and three feet of waves!

The weather in the sea is unpredictable, and when it is still a sunny day, suddenly a gust of wind blows, and it will turn into a violent storm!

I know all this!

That's why this official asked you to recruit shipbuilders and research safer sea-going ships! ”

"Obey the order of the county lord, after the villain goes back, he will arrange for someone to recruit shipbuilders and craftsmen, and the ten families will bow their hands and promise.

Zhang Junping naturally saw that these people agreed very reluctantly.

It is estimated that even if it is recruited, it will not be bothered, and in the end, it will be made up by a dozen or twenty shipbuilders.

"Huh!

Li Yuanwai, Wu Yuanwai, all members, I only want to say one word!

Eighty miles north-west of Fuso Island, there is a Treasure Island!

There is a gold mountain, several silver mountains and copper mountains on the island, and the reserves are larger than the gold and silver mines in ten Muping counties!

This matter has been played by the official to the imperial court, and he also told Xia Shuai about this matter!

It is estimated that at this time, Xia Shuai has already begun to gather shipbuilders and start developing large ships that can cross the sea!

You decide for yourselves, whether you want to build this ship or not, whether you want the gold and silver of the island! Zhang Junping said with a faint smile.
