Failed to complete the investigation, the Americans were still quite dissatisfied, Hua Ruohan also wanted to repeat the old tricks to put pressure on the Xin'an government, but he didn't even enter Xin'an City, there was already a fence set up by Xin'an Xiangyong on the wharf, claiming to refuse any foreigners to go ashore and prohibit any foreign ships from berthing, so he turned around, Hua Ruohan didn't even set foot on the wharf. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Zhu Jinglun did not know the situation of the Americans, and after he disembarked from the ship in Qianshanzhai, he seized the information of the Americans, on the grounds that these materials involved military secrets, but he did not say that he would not give them to the Americans, but said that they would be examined, and that there were only seven Americans, and Zhu Jinglun had 50 musketeers under him, and the Americans had no room for resistance, so they could only watch Zhu Jinglun let Zhu Jinglun have all these materials brought ashore.

After that, I took a boat back to Xiangshan County, and on the way, I heard about the recent resistance to the land cutting movement in this area, and also saw the figure of the villagers along the way, and almost every village moved.

The first outbreak was undoubtedly Xin'an, Chen Zhiting, as the acting governor of the county, united the patriarchs and squires of the ten major families of Xin'an, gathered in the Minglun Hall of Xin'an School Palace to make a covenant to resist the Yingyi and cut the land, burned the table to sacrifice to the ancestors and Confucius, and wrote to the court, "Do not tell the gentry, do not pay to the officials, donate and fight, and vow to defend the countryside", which is completely a copy of his brother Chen Gui's mobilization of the gentry, but it is very effective.

After the Ming Dynasty, it was also disconnected from the government, which means that this was the spontaneous action of the local squire.

But it really doesn't matter, Bai Gui will definitely not have this understanding, the last time Chen Gui acted, it was the British soldiers in the city of Guangzhou, it was the government called on everyone to act, this time it was completely spontaneous by the squires, and the momentum was even greater, after all, this time it was for the purpose of resisting the foreigners to cut the land, and the land was the most sensitive and fragile string in the hearts of the Chinese people from the gentry to the tenants.

If it is not called for by the government, that is, it is not controlled, it is extremely easy to develop into an anti-government atrocity, and once a careerist leads to it, the consequences are unimaginable.

Bai Gui thought so, but the problem was beyond his control, at this time, he didn't care if it would be embarrassing to win Zhu Jinglun's small county order, and immediately used the identity of the governor of Liangguang to let Zhu Jinglun immediately return to Xin'an to resume his post, so that he could calm down the people's feelings as soon as possible, of course, the procedure that should be taken still has to go, and he also wrote to the court at the same time to explain the reason.

When Zhu Jinglun returned to Xiangshan County, a cup of tea was not brewed, so Fuli dragged him onto the boat bound for Xin'an, but Fuli waited for two days and suffered for two days.

At the beginning, when the Kowloon gentry came to the government to petition, Chen Zhiting not only did not take measures to calm down the incident, but always stood on the side of these gentry and joined hands to put pressure on the Guangdong government, which made Fuli very angry, but he sued Bai Gui to see it, but Bai Gui did not dare to let Fu Li get his wish, because at this time, Bai Gui did not dare to dismiss Chen Zhiting.

It is easy to dismiss Chen Zhiting, and it will be difficult to calm down the anger of the Xin'an gentry again.

But Chen Zhiting's stay in Xin'an to act as the county government is another big trouble, and only when Zhu Jinglun comes back can he have enough reason to take the county government back from Chen Zhiting, which is also a big reason for Bai Gui to win Zhu Jinglun.

"It's a big game!"

Zhu Jinglun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He only knew that land was more important than anything else in the hearts of the people, but he still found that he underestimated the status of land in the minds of clans and squires.

"The land is really an ancestor for the common people."

Zhu Jinglun couldn't help but sigh, no wonder that when he wanted to carry out land reform, he instigated the common people to spontaneously beat the landlords, and then nationalized the land, so as to complete the nationalization of land assets and complete the most important primitive accumulation for industrialization.

"Don't just sigh, you have to think about it, the governor can say it, if you don't get it right, there will be a flood of soldiers."

The so-called Hongbing, is the armed force of the Tiandihui, which still exists in the western part of Guangdong at this time, and the government cannot suppress it.

Zhu Jinglun said: "It is better to be blocked, we must rush ahead of the Hong soldiers and lead the people to the right channel, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Fu Li nodded and said: "Everyone knows the truth, do you have a score in your heart, how to sparse it?" ”

Zhu Jinglun said: "There are some superficial opinions, but I haven't told the governor yet, and I don't dare to make my own decisions." ”

Fu Li said: "It's too late, the governor said, you can cut it first and then play." You are him. ”

Zhu Jinglun smiled in his heart, Bai Gui gave him full power, of course, only verbally, but he can now play the banner of the governor, as for whether Bai Gui will admit it, it depends on whether he does a good job, if he does it well, Bai Gui will say that it is his own idea, and if he doesn't do well, he will pull Zhu Jinglun out and behead the people. I stayed on the boat without seeing Fu Li, and I didn't plan to get off the ship even if I was killed.

Zhu Jinglun said: "That's good, for today's plan, we need to care for foreigners and comb the people at the same time." Rich man, you have to stay and help me. ”

Fuli is not confused in major matters, otherwise when he is in Guangzhou, Bai Gui will not hand over all the important secret tasks to him.

Fu Li immediately said: "Don't worry, now you treat Lao Tzu as a dog, where to bite." ”

"Haha, the rich brother laughed. Well, there are a lot of people who greet us. ”

Saying that, the ship docked at Xin'an Wharf, which is the old wharf, close to the wharf of the county seat, and the conditions of Chiwan are not very good, so it has been a little depressed for more than a year, but it is extremely lively at this time.

Fu Li snorted: "Don't talk about the cool words, maybe I'm waiting to cut off your head." ”

It was a group of villagers, including Chen's hometown, and the villagers of the nearby clans came.

Zhu Jinglun was not afraid that they would cut off his head, so he strode onto the stone slab on the dock and shouted to the villagers behind the fence in the distance.

"Fellow villagers, fathers and elders, your heart to serve the country really makes Zhu Jinglun deeply admired!"

The slogan shouted loudly, and he frequently hugged his fist towards the villagers, with a smile on his face, but his steps just didn't take a step forward.

Fuli said that these people want to cut off Zhu Jinglun's head, but it's not just a joke, populism, they don't start from reason at all, they don't care about Zhu Jinglun's dealings with foreigners at all, and they play a role in protecting the land and the people, they only see Zhu Jinglun letting foreigners do business in Xin'an, and letting foreigners take charge of the Xin'an Li Bureau, and seeing more and more foreign ships entering and leaving Chiwan Port, they feel that Zhu Jinglun is betraying the country.

Of course, not everyone thinks so, but there are a lot of people who think like this, who dares to guarantee that there are not a few such people among the Xiangyong here at the dock, in case they come out and catch Zhu Jinglun, shout a few slogans, and the ordinary people who have lost their minds are not impossible to cut Zhu Jinglun on the spot, and now these Xiangyong actually have no organization at all, and there is no discipline without organization.

So Zhu Jinglun made his identity clear loudly, and put on a smile, Bingming's identity was to quickly lead the person in charge out, and the smile was to reach out and not hit the smiling person, so that the other party was not easy to start for a while.

Sure enough, after shouting for a quarter of an hour, a team of township warriors came from a distance from Xin'an County, and the leader was Chen Zhiting, the acting county commander.

Chen Zhiting is actually full of confusion, he was just a person before he became an official, without any governing experience, he has only been a county magistrate for more than a year, and the county order has just been acted, in the face of surging local forces, he doesn't know how to deal with it at all, plus he is also a squire, he still hasn't been converted into a bureaucracy, and from the perspective of a squire, so he will make a joint effort to put pressure on Bai Gui, but as long as he has a little bit of an official brain, he will not offend a big man like Bai Gui, which will ruin his future.

Now the squires are mobilized, all villages and villages are organizing the villagers, the common people in the agricultural slack period have nothing to do, happy to follow behind the big households, and can also mix a full meal, so all the villages have moved, just in Xin'an County, there are tens of thousands of young people, which is what he can manage, at the beginning he also planned to organize the villagers and villages to guard the main roads, but soon gathered together the townspeople, they made trouble, for all kinds of trivial things, there were fights, in just a few days disabled more than a dozen people, Two of them died, and if it went on like this, before the foreigners came to cut the land, a civil war was about to break out.

Therefore, Chen Zhiting also misses Zhu Jinglun very much, hoping that Zhu Jinglun can come back, he knows that Zhu Jinglun is coming back, but he doesn't know that it is today, two days ago, Fuli took Bai Gui's letter, saying that he was going to Xiangshan County to pick up Zhu Jinglun back, yesterday he was still waiting on the dock for a day, and there was no movement, I heard that Zhu Jinglun went to Xinhui to investigate, how do you think he will come back today, he was just busy adjusting a few squires who were fighting lawsuits.

With the children of the Chen family to clear a way, greeted Zhu Jinglun, greeted each other, under the protection of the children of the Chen family, Zhu Jinglun dared to walk towards Xin'an City generously, but he did not show any cowardice on his face, always with a smile, and frequently surrendered his hands to various townspeople.

When he returned to the county office, he met with the two local squires who had fought yesterday, and each of them beat thirty boards, and the funeral expenses of the dead were beaten, and the other family was not allowed to entangle, and then let the two families go back to their respective villages first, and they were not allowed to enter the city without an order.

After listening to Chen Zhiting report the details to him for an hour, Zhu Jinglun was able to rest for a while.

He leaned back in the chair, he didn't want to move, every cell was stretching happily, this was because of excitement, the body secreted too much adrenal hormones, the mechanical body reminded Zhu Jinglun, whether to suppress it, Zhu Jinglun did not suppress it, because he really enjoyed this feeling.

He really wanted to cheer loudly at this time:

The people are mobilized!

The next step is to mobilize the people and organize!
