In fact, it is a very easy process to get together with Wang Ningan to talk about things.

If you have any questions, just say them, and if there are any methods, let's find a solution together. Compared with Wang Anshi's strong and stubborn style, it is no less than a clear stream.

Gradually, everyone opened their hearts, and as the smartest group of people in the Great Song Dynasty, they quickly discussed an idea.

The financial difficulties of the local government cannot only rely on subsidies from the imperial court, nor can they rely on the sky for food, but must move on their own. Where conditions permit, industry and commerce should be used to develop industries, and where conditions are slightly worse, it is necessary to integrate local agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishery, and various sideline industries.

Wang Ning'an drew a huge circle around every big city according to the distance of two to three days, so that almost more than ninety percent of the prefectures and counties with financial difficulties were included.

The nearest suburbs to the city have established a vegetable base for urban consumption.

This has been done in the past, but it is all done by the farmers themselves, and it is not large-scale, and many gentry and nobles have their own farms to produce and eat, and they don't even have to pay the land endowment, let alone join the whole cycle.

Obviously, this will not work.

"The Ministry of Households, immediately draw up a land acquisition standard, all the land around the city, willing to be included in the vegetable basket, can be reasonably divided, if not, the land will be expropriated, if they are unwilling, no need for me to say, you know what to do!"

What else can I do!

Wang Anshi has been doing it for so long, and Fang Tian has equal taxes, so he went to check the land, check the taxes, and recover the arrears of land over the years, but if it can't be done, he will go to check to see if there is a problem of annexing the people's land and property and stealing by ingenuity...... A few of the families in these years are clean, and a few of them can withstand thorough investigation, and once the problem is found, they will be directly distributed to the Western Regions, and there is no need to be polite at all.

Sima Guang and Hubu Shangshu nodded together, indicating that they would definitely carry it out.

If the distance is farther away, it is necessary to develop animal husbandry, raise chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs, dig fish ponds, and grow grain, so that businessmen can directly collect money from the common people, settle settlements on the spot, eliminate intermediate links, and raise the prices of agricultural products as much as possible.

The whole process requires the participation of banks, land acquisition, planting, breeding, transportation, and sales, and all links must provide capital assistance to reduce risks, and for the people, they must also be guided by interests.

"Every county town must establish a few more competitive fist products, only by selling things, can there be tax revenue, and the life of the yamen can be better, and we must tell every local official this meaning!"

Wang Ningan knocked on the table and said loudly: "For thousands of years, how have we asked for magistrates? To complete the court field, to be the master of the people, to uphold justice, the main responsibility is to deal with local cases, to be proficient in criminal law, to determine right from wrong, is a good official. If you build some water conservancy projects, build schools, build ancestral halls, and educate people's hearts, you will be the best of the best in the evaluation of the officials! But not now! We need to set higher standards for officials, and they have to do more! To be able to operate, to be able to develop, to know what the advantages and disadvantages are under your rule, to know how to enrich the country and the people! At least let the people under his rule live a good life. ”

Wang Ningan said, glancing at Song Zhen.

Song Zhen immediately understood, "Lord, the old man thinks that among the local officials, some newcomers are quite energetic, but lack experience and prestige, and there are some old officials who have outdated ideas, are lazy for government, and are unwilling to pay hard work. In fact, it is a corpse vegetarian meal, wasting state funds and people's wealth in vain, and these inactive people are very harmful, compared to corrupt officials and corrupt officials. ”

Song Zhen said: "The old man thinks that local officials should be trained in batches, and they should be allowed to go to Beijing to see, go to various places, really understand the people's suffering, and know what to do." The old man proposed that all the officials of the selected prefectures and counties should be trained in Beijing in batches for three months, and if they still did not do anything, the officials would be boldly deposed! I don't have anything else, I am willing to do things, there are more people who can do things, and I want to give people who have the ability a chance! ”

This Song Xianggong said that the righteousness was strict and impassioned, but everyone could hear that this knife was cut at the traditional old-school literati.

In the past, it was only the center that was lost, and no one acted as the leader, but the old school was still very powerful in the localities, Yanlu, Guozijian, Hanlin Yuan and other yamen.

This time, with the help of Zhou Feng's case, there are many old-school officials who have jumped out.

Song Zhen wanted to take the opportunity of training to clean up the old officials.

Of course, he called it following the trend, and it was logical.

Who let the old school of outdated officials have no ability to operate, no ability to develop the place, but they will only reach out and ask for money, what are you doing with such waste!

Pang Ji rolled his eyelids and looked at Song Zhen, of course he knew that Song Zhen's abacus, but the current Pang Ji did not have the ability to jump out to stop it.

He also understood that the so-called important affairs of the military state in Pingzhang are completely based on the meaning of the prime minister, if you want to give you more power, you can give you more power, if you don't want to give it, you can't do it, you can only act as an ornament!

Old Pang simply closed his eyes and remained silent.

This proposal was quickly adopted.

At this time, Wang Anguo, who had just been transferred to the Ministry of Industry, also stood up.

"Lord Wang, if you just let the people grow vegetables and breed, I'm afraid it's not enough! I don't think it's going to be a road? ”

"That's right!" Wang Ningan said with a smile: "We have already built the Sichuan-Shaanxi Straight Road, and we are building the straight road to the Western Regions, which are all big projects, in comparison, it is much easier to build a road connecting the county seat." When the road is open and the speed is faster, the area that the city can radiate will be larger. The Ministry of Industry should come up with a plan as soon as possible, and in the future, it will take out more than 30 million yuan every year to build roads! Only more, not less! ”

In fact, Da Song is not without money, but any investment, must pay attention to returns.

For example, many people will think that it is a good thing to expand the territory, so that the territory is vast and the territory increases.

But don't forget, it costs money to fight a foreign war. And the benefits of war are not evenly distributed to everyone.

It will cause some people, who have been heavily taxed, and who have lost their loved ones, and as a result, they have not reaped any benefits, and life has become more and more difficult, and the people are war-weary, which is understandable.

It's the same with subsidizing places with money, there is only input, and there is no return, and there will definitely be resistance.

But to invest in roads, to build bridges, to collect tolls.

This set has been tested in the northwest, it is feasible, and many roads will become cash cows, and the enthusiasm of the household department and the ministry of industry has come up.

It's just that such a large amount of work requires too much capital, and it will definitely not be possible to rely on the Royal Bank alone.

Sima Guang once again proposed that the reform of the Jin Yuan is urgent!

Only by issuing gold dollars can banks raise enough funds to support local borrowing and promote huge construction.

"Now the situation is very clear, whether it is the Western Regions, or overseas merchants, they carry small size, large value of gold and silver, only the Great Song Dynasty, because of the lack of gold and silver, had to use copper coins as currency, and now it has reached the point of reform! The gradual abolition of copper coins, the introduction of gold and silver dollars, and the use of paper money and bills of exchange in large transactions, this is the king! ”

Sima Guang brought up the old matter again, and in an instant, Han Jiang and several officials did not look good on their faces.

Even if Wang Ningan released the news, copper coins will not be completely worthless, on the contrary, military factories will buy them at a high price, but everyone knows that copper coins are not simple currency, and with a huge copper coin, the family has used the ability to settle and can grasp the lifeline of local commercial trade.

The copper coins are invalid, and they no longer have the opportunity to exploit the merchants, so they can only be honest and make money from business, and they must be uncomfortable in their hearts.

But Han Jiang knew his weight very well and didn't jump out directly.

Surprisingly, Wang Ningan did not pretend to be deep, but expressed his position directly.

"The reform of the Jin Yuan is bound to impact the interests of some gentry and wealthy families, but if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be poor, and if you are poor, you will not be poor!" Wang Ningan smiled and said: "Any change is painful, but I believe that some of the suffering is worth it." For example, the construction of roads, the establishment of vegetable gardens in the city, the development of breeding, and the transportation and marketing of agricultural products should be carried out in cooperation with some powerful and reputable gentry. Wang Ning'an glanced around, and said with a smile: "You are all well-educated people, I believe that anyone who has been subjected to the handboard when he was a child, but as long as he survives, it will be a different world." ”

Wang Ning'an, this is the final word, and the reform of the Golden Yuan is imperative.

Some people rejoice, others are depressed.

Everyone talked for almost a little while, and then I realized that we hadn't eaten yet!

Hurry home and fill your stomach!

As soon as they were about to leave, Wang Ningan suddenly smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have prepared a hot pot, let's eat it together!" ”

As he spoke, there were people below running up, carrying a huge copper hot pot, hanging in the tin, and the middle was separated, with clear soup on one side and red soup on the other, making it look like a yin and yang fish, and it was very good-looking.

With the addition of silver silk bamboo charcoal, there is no fireworks at all.

After a while, the soup was tumbling, bursting with aroma, and everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"Don't be stunned, sit down and eat!"

Wang Ningan took the lead in picking up a pig's brain and putting it in the red soup.

Don't think that if Da Song doesn't have chili, you can't enjoy the delicious taste of hot pot. In fact, before the introduction of chili peppers, the wise ancestors used dogwood fruit as a spicy taste, and the red oil fried by the red and bright dogwood was not much different from the chili oil.

The only problem is that dogwood has some bitterness, and perhaps that's why chili peppers replace dogwood.

But it doesn't matter, foodies are never intimidated by difficulties. Su Shi invented a way to remove the bitter taste, not directly using dogwood fruit to fry oil, but first pressing out the juice, when frying, add sesame seeds, garlic, pepper, almonds and other seasonings...... Not only is the bitterness gone, but also spicy and fragrant, which is wonderful!

Ouyang Xiu, Jia Changchao, Song Zhen, Di Qing, Sima Guang, and others also sat down one after another, and Lao Ouyang even complained: "Jingping, you know that I have a thirst-quenching disease, and you still tempt the old man with food, you are forcing the old man to make an exception!" ”

Jia Changchao had already picked up a piece of mutton slices with chopsticks, and laughed teasingly, "Drunkard, you eat vegetables, we eat meat, just right!" ”

When the two of them were arguing, Di Qing skillfully swept away a plate of beef slices with a chopstick, you quarrel with you, I'll fill my stomach first!

Dare to love these high-ranking officials and ministers, the food appearance is not better than ordinary people at all, eat heartily, sweat along the neck one by one, you fight for me, like a group of children.

Wang Ning'an ate the two pig brain flowers and burped comfortably, "Princess, in the future, everyone will eat in the same pot, but we have to help each other in the same boat!" ”
