Yun shook his head, Sun Hao understood, knowing that Bi Yun was unwilling to reveal his identity. In Sun Hao's view, Dongchang is already a mysterious and unimaginable place, which is even more fearsome than the Hades Palace. He immediately closed his mouth and invited Bi Yun over tremblingly: "Mr. Gong, please." ”

Helplessly, the seat has been occupied by Guo Hong. Sun Hao looked at Bi Yun in fear.

Fortunately, Bi Yun came to see Sun Dan in secret, and he didn't want to cause trouble, so he only smiled gently, said "bother" and sat next to Guo Hong.

He also learned from Guo Hong's appearance, and raised Erlang's legs loudly.

This place was originally Guo Po's, but now that it is occupied by Bi Yun, Guo Po can only sit under him angrily.

Guo Hong was already arrogant, and when he saw a lowly businessman sitting beside him, he was already displeased in his heart. Seeing that Bi Yun was full of mud ideas, he frowned even more in disgust.

It's just that Guo Hong respects his identity and feels that he is a little marquis, and he has a share of nonsense with a small businessman.

After all, Bi Yun was a person in the core decision-making level of the Ming Dynasty, ranking fourth among the emperor and the four major ministers and ministers, second only to the emperor, Yang Tinghe, and Huang Jin. has been in the top position for a long time, and naturally has a momentum on his body, or an aura that people can't ignore.

He sat down beside Guo Hong, his waist was straight, and his eyes swept over the people in the hall, although it was only for a moment, but the general manager in the hall felt that he stared at him fiercely, and his heart suddenly sudden.

Although Bi Yun was wearing an ordinary cotton robe, which was also full of mud spots, he looked like an old man in his fifties, but the kind of temperament he wore on his body was more expensive than that of a prince, which made people feel that he had lowered his head.

Compared with the next, even if Guo Hong next to him is dressed gorgeously, his flying and jumping temperament is much darker under Bi Yun's comparison, just like a grass chicken standing next to a peacock.

Everyone said in their hearts: "This businessman is so magnificent."

As soon as Bi Yun sat down beside Guo Hong, Guo Hong immediately felt an inexplicable pressure, he couldn't help but glance at the old man beside him, his lips moved, and he snorted in his nose, but he couldn't remember what he should say next, so he couldn't help but close his mouth.

There is boredom and anger in my heart.

Bi Yun's sudden appearance made the room suddenly quiet.

Bi Yun probably also realized that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and smiled softly, "Didn't everyone want to discuss politics and review the gains and losses of Lord Sun after he came to Fangshan, why didn't you speak?" ”

Guo Hong came to his senses, cleared his throat, and subconsciously said: "Yes, let's talk about it, tell me what Sun Jingyuan has done since he came to Fangshan, which has brought disaster to the country and the people." ”

As soon as the words came out, he felt that something was wrong in his heart, and he continued Bi Yun's words. Doesn't it look like you've become someone else's subordinate? The momentum has been overwhelmed.

A little mustard-like raw silk merchant and a lowly character actually stole the limelight from my Guo Xiaohou Ye.

was interrupted by Bi Yun, and all the Fangshan Haoshen didn't know what to say. Although they all secretly hated Sun Dan for instigating the peasants who were attached to them to retreat from the land, Sun Dan was also a house concession. 's parents, the county magistrate who copied the family, and the prefect who destroyed the door, although the Guo family is noble, it is far away in the capital. The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. Although Sun Dan couldn't fight the Guo family, it was easy to clean them up. The first thing to do is rotten, and no one is willing to be the first to speak.

Guo Hong saw that everyone was hesitating, and he was very unhappy. glanced at Bi Yun again, and then at Guo Pu.

Guo Pu understood, coughed and cleared his throat: "Since everyone doesn't speak, I'll say a word first, Lao Guo." Since Sun Dan came to Fangshan, he has constantly instigated the people to retreat from the land, causing us and other Fangshan villagers to suffer huge losses. The rent-free face tax was originally a preferential treatment for me and other scholars by the imperial court, and when Sun Dan did this, didn't he regard the royal law as nothing?

Before everyone could speak, Bi Yun, who was sandwiched between Guo Pu and Guo Hong, suddenly smiled lightly: "Although the imperial court has tax exemption and exemption for scholars, this is just the emperor's kindness. You also read the books of sages, received the favor of the imperial court, and did not want to serve the imperial court, but thought about accumulating the land of the population, resulting in a large loss of national finance and taxes. Where have you read your books, are you worthy of the imperial court and His Majesty the Emperor? What do you want to do, do you want to close the door and form a system, and learn from the heroes of the two Han Dynasty? In my opinion, you have money, land, and people, and now you are missing the army Bi Yun pressed down with a big hat, and everyone was speechless, and there were already people whose faces began to turn white.

Mu Shouli, who was on the left side of the main seat, frowned slightly: "This palace boss is also a little alarmist, the more he looks at Bi Yun, the more he dislikes it, but because he was invited by Sun Dan, it is not easy to bombard him out."

Guo Pu couldn't bear it, and turned his head to stare at Bi Yun: "Gong Er, what is your identity, adults speak, although it's your turn to intervene as a lowly villain?"

Seeing that Guo Puff was rude, Sun Hao, who was waiting next to him, trembled in his heart, and said in his heart: This Guo Plop is only afraid that it will be bad, and even the factory officials of the East Factory dare to offend, is he impatient?

Sun Hao was the only person in the hall who knew Bi Yun's identity, and since Bi Gonggong sat down, he had stood respectfully beside him and served. Even though he knew that Bi Yun was Sun Dan's friend, the cold in Sun Hao's heart was still surging upwards one by one.

To Sun Hao's surprise, Bi Yun was not angry, but said lightly: "Gong Er is just an ordinary businessman, this kind of field."

Speak, you say, just because I haven't been here. Old man, I'll come back in Yihu County, you don't want to let Guo Puff go if you continue Bi Yun, in fact, he has already remembered Guo Puff. Guo Hong is the son of Lao Guo, it's not easy to do anything with him, but it's not a piece of cake to clean up a Guo Puff.

It's just that Bi Yun came to Fangshan secretly this time, and he didn't want to expose his identity.

Seeing that Bi Yun finally stopped being mischievous, Guo Pu thought that he had softened and said more: "Count your acquaintance, and if you talk nonsense, Lord Ben will beat you out." ”

Bi Yun said "oh", his waist was still straight: the little old man was a little scared. ”

After Bi Yun's big hat was buttoned down, the hall was a little cold.

Guo Hong shouted a few times: "Let's discuss." But no one spoke.

Guo Hong is just a son-in-law, and he has never experienced this kind of occasion before, so he didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to turn his eyes on Guo Phu for help.

Bi Yun looked funny next to him, and secretly thought: Lao Guo is also pitiful, he gave birth to such a useless son, there are only dozens of hundreds of people here, and he can't control the hall. Seeing the subtle knowledge, I think that Guo Hong's future achievements are also very limited.

Guo Pu saw that his nephew really had no choice, so he had to hand over a color to Mu Shouli. Mu Shouli is the undertaker of Fangshan County, and this discussion should have been presided over by him.

Mu Shouli glanced at everyone, shouted a few times, and saw that no one spoke, so he had to name him: "Tong Weng, your family's land has lost the most this month, and most of the population has been scattered, and you are the oldest person in the county, and you are highly respected, so you can say it first." ”

The township Zhong surnamed Tong named by him is an old talent in the Jingtai period, he is over 70 years old this year, he is cowardly by nature, and his power in Fangshan Township is the weakest. Because of this, he has the most to lose. And. This person has also been a teacher for a while before, and he is the leader of Fangshan's reading species, so it is naturally best for him to take the lead. As soon as the first speaker of the reader's speech, the direction of public opinion naturally spreads in a direction that is beneficial to everyone.

When Tong Weng heard Mu Shouli call his name, he shook his body, as if he had woken up from a dream. stuttered: "Say,,,Say what?" ”

Guo Hong was so angry that he knocked on the table: "Tong Weng." Let me tell me about Sun Dan

"Oh, let's talk about Lord Sun." Tong Weng touched his beard and said: "I don't know much about Sun Dan's affairs, I'm just a teacher, I don't know a lot of things and can't see through them, I don't know what to say."

Guo Hong was still angry, but Mu Shouli hurriedly said: "Tong Weng, you can say whatever you want." ”

Tong Weng slapped the table and made an angry look: "Speaking of this Lord Sun, it's really too much, didn't he write a book of "Daily Knowledge" some time ago, in my opinion, the paper is full of failures, and the whole article is ridiculous. What he said, "Witness the world." Fang knows that the key to controlling chaos must be in the hearts of the people and customs" According to his thesis, he said that the decline of customs is the source of chaos, and extravagance and glitz are the signs of the country's demise. Isn't this full of nonsense? I am now rich and strong, and my life at home is a prosperous scene. Shouldn't the people eat better and dress better? He didn't like it, and said that he was going to die in the country, which was a crooked argument of that faction. Moreover, in my opinion, after Lord Sun came to Fangshan, he changed from farming to mulberry and encouraged business, and he did not take the road of extravagance and flashiness. Such a difference in knowledge and action is a hypocrite

As soon as he opened the conversation, he continued to speak endlessly, quoting scriptures, Confucius passed, Mencius came over, and Guo Hong's head was bigger when he heard it, and he was only willing to strangle this green-headed fly to death.

Bi Yun finally couldn't help laughing: "Tong Weng is really talented, admire and admire." ”

Tong Weng was very proud, touched his white beard and smiled: "Awards, awards." The saint has clouds

Mu Shouli also knew that it was not a way to let Tong Weng continue to talk about it, and if he was so laissez-faire, this review meeting would soon become an academic seminar. He coughed: "Okay, Tong Weng is right, you should take a rest."

Tong Weng also said that he was excited, not only coughing, but his face was flushed, and he was very unhappy when Mu Shouli interrupted him: "I haven't finished talking yet, this Sun Dan,"

Guo Hong finally couldn't help it, and slammed the table: "Old man Tong, you're done talking, you have to let others talk about it." ”

Guo Hong said rudely, Tong Weng was hurt, and he couldn't stop posing Bai Huahua's head angrily: "Not a son of man, not a son of man."

Guo Hong pointed to another Xiang Shen who looked younger: "Now it's your turn to say, talk about it, talk about what Sun Dan has done that hurts the heavens and reason."

Mu Shouli duly pointed out the person's name: "Guo Xiucai, you can talk about it." ”

The Xiucai surnamed Guo is also a wealthy person in Fangshan, because he is young and has an active brain, he has already hoarded more than a dozen yards in advance before the Beijing real estate speculation group entered Fangshan, and now he has been working hard for more than a month and has made a lot of money. After calculating it, the gains of more than a month are worth the income of 20 years in his own manor. Therefore, I don't pay much attention to the loss of my own land and people.

It is precisely because he does not care about the loss of land and people that he ranks among the top few in the township.

Mu Shouli also named him because of this, hoping that he, the victim, could tell a history of revolutionaries.

But Xiucai, as the leader of the Fangshan real estate speculation group, did not dare to offend Sun Dan. really annoyed the county magistrate, and the next order was to prohibit him from speculating in real estate, or to raise the real estate transaction tax

But Mu Shouli couldn't be provoked either, and after being accepted by Mu County, Guo Xiucai had to stand up with a painful face, and said a few times before he said: "This Lord Sun is really too unlikely, you look at what Fangshan has become now, the streets are full of feces and urine, and people can't open their eyes." It's a cold day now, but if it's a hot day, I'm afraid I'm going to get thinner

"Yes, yes, it stinks." The people who came here today still account for the vast majority of people who make soy sauce, and they don't want to be this up-and-coming bird, so they echo Guo Xiucai, pretending to be angry, and shouting: "Lord Sun is really too much, you see him do this county and make a Fangshan into a big latrine, doesn't he stink?" ”

"Also, I took a closer look when I came over. The sewers are clogged. Wait until the snow melts in spring, won't there be floods? small

"By the way, there is a shop selling dry tobacco next to the house in my city, and there are people there all day long, and it really caused a fire, but how can I get it, and Lord Sun doesn't care? In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Hebei had begun to seed tobacco, and this novelty had begun to become popular in society.

"Also, the things that have been going on lately are too expensive for the money to spend. Sun Dan didn't want to think of a way to stabilize prices, but it's okay, ordinary people haven't eaten meat for a long time. Pork has risen to 20 cents a catty. This is the New Year's Day, so I gritted my teeth and cut two catties to go home. ”

"The price is too high, and if it is not calm, how can we live this life!"

Everyone, you say a word, I don't say anything, it can be said that the crowd is turbulent, but what you say is some trivial things.

Mu Shouli, Guo Pu and Guo Hong didn't expect things to turn out like this, you look at me, I look at you, they are all a little dumbfounded.

Bi Yun couldn't help laughing: "This Lord Sun is really a dumb official, he has made a mess in the place, and he should be beaten." Your review meeting is very meaningful, and you should continue to discuss it, so it is interesting to celebrate the Chinese New Year's Eve

Hearing Bi Yun's sarcastic laughter, Guo Pu next to him looked at Bi Yun viciously: "Gong Er, this is Fangshan, you want to make a voice here, don't think that if you get close to Sun Dan, we can't do anything about you, Fangshan is not the world of his grandson alone, we should be more close in the future!" "He already hated Bi Yun.

Bi Yun seemed to have heard something very funny, raised his head and laughed sharply: "Okay, well, since you want to be close to Xiao Lao'er, let's be respectful and obey."

He had long known through Dongchang's intelligence network that Guo Pu had caused Sun Dan a lot of trouble in Fangshan, although he had the intention to help Sun Dan get rid of this trouble. But Sun Dan is also a good-looking person, and he helps him by himself, Sun Dan may not appreciate this guy; Second, Guo Pu is just a big person, and he can't alarm his father-in-law. It's good now, people take the initiative to provoke, if I don't accept Bi Yun, I'm afraid that I will be looked down upon by Huang Jin.

Lao Guo, Lao Guo, our family will help you clean up the scum of your Guo family, and you are the door style of Wudinghou.

Guo Hong couldn't hold back any longer, stood up suddenly, and shouted with a blushing face: "Quiet, it's useless to talk about it." ”

Seeing that Xiao Hou Ye was angry, everyone quieted down again.

Guo Hong shouted: "I understand what everyone means, do you mean that Sun Dan encourages business in Fangshan." Causes chaos in the place, doesn't it? ”

Mu Shouli also continued: "According to this official's opinion, this change from agriculture to mulberry has caused the prices in Fangshan to soar and the people will not be able to make a living, and this evil law will never work. Farming is the foundation of the country, and commerce does not bring real wealth and should be banned

Before he finished speaking, a bright laugh came from the door: "Lord Mu is not right

Everyone turned their heads to look over, but saw Sun Danzheng walking in with a large group of merchants.

Although everyone had a lot of opinions about Sun Dan, they still stepped forward to salute: "I've seen Master Sun." ”

"Hello Sun."

"Hello everyone." Sun Dan smiled one by one, and it took a long time to walk to the main seat, ignoring Mu Shouli, and sat down straight. As soon as the net sat down, he appeared Bi Yun and didn't feel stunned.

Bi Yun hurriedly arched his hand: "Suzhou silk merchant Gong Er has seen Master Sun. ”

Seeing that he was incognito, Sun Dan knew that Bi Yun had something important, so he didn't say much, only nodded, indicating that he knew.

Beckoning the businessmen to do it, Sun Dan sat down, and said in a loud voice: "Everyone heard what the official said just now, and it boils down to three aspects: first, the price problem; second, health issues; Third, whether to encourage business. Here, I will explain it to you one by one

"Let's talk about prices first, the prices have been really high in recent times, Sun Dan said: "That's because there are too many foreign populations in Fangshan recently, and because it's winter, there is no output in the field, so the prices are ridiculously high." However, it is not impossible to solve

He smiled and pointed to the large group of merchants who were already seated: "These bosses are all invited by us from all over the world, and a large part of them are silk merchants, not to mention much. There are also a considerable number of daily grocery and dry goods dealers, and this official has asked them to sell a large amount of materials to our Fangshan, and as long as the current situation of shortage of goods in the market is solved, prices should be able to drop in a short time
