Chapter 107: There are only three requests
"Yun Ji, how are you adults?" After dinner, Chen Feng left Yun Ji in the study.
"Although the adults do not understand the sufferings of the people, they are good to the people." Yun Ji pondered for a while before answering Chen Feng's question.
"Do you have any objections to the current arrangement?"
"In the morning, after breakfast, there are occasional, but in the afternoon I don't hear it."
"That's fine." Hearing Yun Ji's words, Chen Feng smiled, and the expression on his face seemed to be relieved.
"Is there any benefit to being like this, master?" Yun Ji saw that Chen Feng had a look of relief on his face after hearing the performance of those adults, and asked in curiosity.
Chen Feng glanced at Yun Ji carefully, and then said, "Chen Feng has only three requests in this life. ”
"Which three?"
"One seeks the chaos of no soldiers and famine, the second seeks the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and the third seeks inner leisure and peace." Chen Feng's face was solemn, and he said with piety, "Now, in the face of a group of good officials who love the people like sons, how can they ask for him? ”
"The master has the world in his heart?" Yun Ji opened his mouth, and then asked suspiciously, "Master, yesterday I heard your lordships talk about it, saying that His Majesty had promised to be a high-ranking official, but the master refused on the grounds of his heart's wishes, but is it true at this time?" ”
Hearing this, Chen Feng smiled, "These people are quite well-informed. ”
"Yun Ji has something to understand." Seeing Chen Feng's disguised admission, Yun Ji's heart suddenly became suspicious.
"Tell me about it."
"Since the master has the world in his heart, why doesn't he want to enter the court as an official? Now he has a lot of guidance to all the adults in his speech, but he doesn't want to embark on his own career? ”
"Yun Ji!" Chen Feng said bitterly, "Loving the world is not only for officials, let me ask you, if I am a member of the court today, can I still teach these adults without scruples?" ”
This? I can't!
"Let me ask you again, if you are above the court, the power is monstrous, and the people are all ants, but you are sure that you can keep your heart unchanged, not be blinded by power, not be fascinated by wealth, and will not always try to climb up by unscrupulous means, if it is you, can you do it?"
"I ......" Yun Ji closed his eyes and pondered for a while before shaking his head painfully, "I can't do it!" ”
"I'm also worried that I won't be able to do it." Chen Feng smiled bitterly, and then continued, "I ask you again, why is Aimin in the temple? I love my people in the wilderness, and I have thousands of people in my heart: why not? ”
It doesn't seem like it's a must.
"If I love the people of the world, I must be free from dust around me, so that my heart can be free of distractions." When Chen Feng said this, there seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes.
"Sir is really righteous!" At this time, I heard a slightly familiar voice from outside the door.
"Why does Master Gao have time to come?" Chen Feng pushed open the door and saw Gao Shilian standing at the door, not only him, but also his eldest grandson Wuji and Du Ruhui by his side.
"If it weren't for the coincidence, how would I know that Mr. has such a righteous and awe-inspiring bearing."
"For a while, I didn't choose to speak, which made you laugh." Chen Feng shook his head with a smile and said humbly.
"They are all acquaintances, so don't be modest." The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile.
Chen Feng led a few people into the study, let Yun Ji withdraw, and a few people sat down separately, and after Chen Feng ordered someone to serve tea, a few people began to talk.
"How do you have time to see me, a country person?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"Didn't I hear from Your Majesty that Mr. trained those guys very well-behaved, and deliberately came over to see the excitement." The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him and others coming uninvited.
"How?" Chen Feng also looked at a few people with a smile, "Isn't it that a few of you are also more interested in digging wild vegetables up the mountain?" ”
"Forehead......" Eldest Sun Wuji choked suddenly, "It's better to dig wild vegetables." ”
Hearing this, everyone laughed for a while, and then brought the matter over.
"Fang knows, this time we came, we do have important matters to discuss." After seeing everyone laugh, Du Ruhui picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, and then spoke.
"Uncle, please speak." Chen Feng stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and the arrival of his uncle made the other two a little envious, but thinking about the matter, he still put down the little Jiujiu in his heart for the time being.
"There is a question, now that there is a great drought in Beijing, is there a clever plan?"
Chen Feng was silent for a long time, and everyone present did not urge, just waiting for him to speak, but in the end, Chen Feng still shook his head, "If it is this year, Fang knows that there is no magic plan." ”
Implication......
"So, if there is such a situation in the future, Sir will have a clever plan?" Gao Shilian's eyes widened, and he looked at Chen Feng with a look of surprise, if this is the case, he really does not yield to everyone to treat each other politely and respectfully.
"There is indeed a way to ensure harvest in drought and flood, but it's just ......," Chen Feng frowned, "I don't know if it's feasible." ”
Chen Feng was silent again, this time, for a quarter of an hour.
Of course, everyone will not urge, if Chen Feng really finds a way to ensure income from drought and flood, then the situation of the people who have been eating according to God's mood for thousands of years will be completely changed.
Speaking of which, this gentleman would really surprise people, but they were only ordered to come and ask, and if they couldn't, it was reasonable, but they did not expect to let this gentleman find a way.
"I don't know why a few people suddenly asked about this?" Chen Feng finally raised his head, looked at the three of them, and asked.
Yes!
None of the three seemed to expect that Chen Feng would suddenly open his mouth to ask, and he didn't have time to react.
"But Your Majesty has decided to pursue a plan to develop commerce?" Chen Feng could only think of such a possibility.
On that day, His Majesty personally came to Xu Yuanxuan for dinner, and what they discussed was the method of developing commerce, so that ordinary people could also have money to trade, so they needed to take out part of the income from the treasury and lend it to the people, which was equivalent to one more opportunity for the bold.
His Majesty asked, "But all business is risky, and if the treasury can lend them money, can it still avoid risks for them?" ”
"The treasury doesn't need to hedge risks for them, it only needs to hedge risks for itself." Chen Feng smiled confidently at that time, "Doing business with the treasury borrowing silver taels and paying off the principal and interest, you can also charge an extra star and a half on the tax revenue in the next three years." ”
"What if you can't get it yet?"
"If you can't do it, you can pay for it." Chen Feng replied with a smile, "It's equivalent to hiring people to do things for the imperial court, and after all, hiring people also has to pay, isn't it?" ”。
His Majesty didn't say it was feasible or not, but today, it seems to be feasible.
"Sir is really smart, you can guess it!" The eldest grandson Wuji praised, "Your Majesty said that Mr. will definitely be able to guess such a thought, and I still don't believe it." ”
