"Childe, is twice the yield per mu too high, you can say the yield per mu of grain!" The baggage manager of the Meng family, who followed along, couldn't help but be speechless, when Gongzi made such a promise to the villagers, he began to feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Lin Zhao smiled: "What are you afraid of, isn't it just money and food, just give it." You know, there is a return on investment, and after waiting for the autumn harvest, we will definitely be able to earn back the money. ”

"Actually, you don't have to give them so much money and food, they will be willing......" Steward Li said in a low voice, this guy has become a habit of careful calculation, and he is also a little picky.

Lin Zhao just smiled faintly, not talking at all, he had never taken some money to heart. We must have a long-term vision to do things, so why bother with temporary gains and losses? Steward Li doesn't understand this truth, so he can only be a steward all the time!

Lin Zhao instructed: "You have to follow up and be responsible for this matter, you can do what I arrange, don't make your own decisions, if something goes wrong, you are the only one who asks!" ”

Lin Zhao is also worried, these people have no concept of the overall situation, and they are greedy for a while, delaying the big thing!

"Yes, yes, I see!" Steward Li didn't expect Lin Zhao to be so strict, so he immediately agreed to come down, and didn't dare to say a word about other things at all.

"Just remember!" After arranging this matter, Lin Zhao is now waiting for the results. There is also how to explain the Bianjing Emperor Zhao Ji and the Prime Minister Wang Anshi, which is also a major problem. I hope there is good news here, and it will be easier to talk about it then!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Qiantang County is growing cotton? When he heard the news, Cai Jing was a little surprised, or a little inexplicable.

"Yes! I heard that Lin Zhao has engaged in a model called shops and farmers, allowing ordinary people to grow cotton, and after harvesting in autumn, it will be collected by Meng's Commercial Bank, and the price is very high. "Cai Jing returned to his hometown in Fujian this time to save his relatives and bring a brother of the same clan, Cai He, as his confidant master! In this era, it is necessary to have people who can be completely trusted to do things, and the clansmen are undoubtedly the first choice.

"Cotton, what the hell is this? Why is it unheard of? Cai Jing was completely confused and confused, and the name felt very novel for the first time.

Cai He said: "It is said that this thing was brought by the Great Cannibal from Tianzhu Kingdom!" ”

"That's right!" Cai Jing instantly figured out that Lin Zhao had served as a city promotion official, and it was not surprising that he could come into contact with the big cannibals and crops from overseas.

"It is said that this cotton is white, very soft, like snowflake velvet, and it seems that it can be used to weave cloth!" Cai He told Cai Jing all the novelties he had heard.

Weaving? Although Cai Jing was curious, he didn't know anything about these things, so he could only be confused, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Zhao's gourd.

Cai He said: "No one has seen what the cotton looks like when it grows, and the use can only be hearsay." However, Lin Zhao seems to attach great importance to this, and gave a reward of twice the grain yield per mu, so that the farmers in Qiantang County are very attractive, and there are really many people involved. ”

Cotton used to be only used as a flower ornament in the palace of Yuhang County, and the other plantings were all carried out by big cannibals, and it was normal that others had not seen it.

"From this point of view, this cotton is really extraordinary, let's look at it first, Lin Dongyang has more extraordinary, and we can't learn it." Although Cai Jing has the talent of the champion, he is always inferior in front of Lin Zhao.

At the beginning, Cai Jing was still a little unhappy in his heart, and he had a desire not to admit defeat in his bones. But after a long time, it can be clearly felt that other people's abilities are indeed much stronger than their own, so there are some things that can't be acknowledged. The inconspicuous jealousy in Cai Yuanchang's heart began to change to admiration.

Especially last time, when Lin Zhao was worried about internal and external troubles, he still tried to take care of himself and not affect himself, and his approach was very righteous. It was precisely because of this incident that Cai Jing's favor for Lin Zhao skyrocketed.

At the same time, Cai Jing also considered a very practical problem, Lin Zhao was favored by Emperor Zhao Xuan and Prime Minister Wang Anshi, and Hangzhou Zhizhou Zhao Luan and General Judge Su Shi also had a good relationship with him. With such a good network and such a bright future, being good friends with Lin Zhao is also very beneficial to his career and future.

How else can Cai Jing become the head of the six thieves and go down in history? There are certain qualities and ideas that are possessed early on. The identity of the champion is a good start, and the county order is that he has set up lofty ambitions in his heart, and he will definitely enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future, and he is a very popular minister!

"What about the situation of the Qiantang County Seedling Law?" This is the issue that Cai Jing is most concerned about.

Cai He said in a deep voice: "The general situation is the same as ours, the demand for Qingmiao money is not very high, so there are not many people involved. ”

Cai Jing was also helpless about this, he and Lin Zhao encountered the same situation, and they were quite distressed. In particular, the failure of the Seedlings Law to be implemented smoothly made him even more anxious. He is the champion of the new department, but it is still a bit too much to make a county order at the beginning, Cai Jing knows very well that this is the promotion of the housekeeper.

The more special it is, the more exceptional the appointment, the greater the attention it will inevitably receive, and with this green seedling method, the world doesn't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at themselves.

At the same time, it is also the expectation and attention of the official, if the performance is not good, the official family will be disappointed...... Whether it is to repay the kindness of the encounter or for his own future, such a situation is not allowed, so Cai Jing is under a lot of pressure!

Therefore, when Emperor Zhao Xuan selected Yuhang County as the trial site of the Qingmiao Law, Cai Jing was particularly concerned about wanting to make achievements. It has been rolling out since last fall, but the effect doesn't seem to be very obvious.

Last year it was a small fight, but this year it's definitely very formal. But the effect is still not very good, which makes Cai Jing a little anxious.

Lin Zhao encountered all the problems, he encountered. So he paid extra attention to Lin Zhao's actions, wanting to see how the more experienced Lin Zhao solved these problems, so that he could learn from them. In comparison, he is a little immature and inexperienced!

Cai He continued: "However, Lin Zhao doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all, he doesn't seem to care if there are not many people borrowing Qingmiao's money, and it is strictly forbidden to forcibly apportion it. To be honest, even those little officials in Qiantang County are a little anxious, after all, the Qingmiao Law has not been implemented for a long time, and they have no oil and water......" Speaking of this, Cai He looked at Cai Jing intentionally or unintentionally, because such things are also common in Yuhang County.

Sure enough, Cai Jing's expression was slightly unnatural. What the little officials in Yuhang County did, he didn't say that he knew it clearly, but he still knew it in his heart. But what about it? When the water is clear, there are no fish, he wants to count on these people to help him work, and it seems unrealistic not to let him get some benefits, Cai Jing is also quite helpless about this.

More importantly, only in this way can the implementation of the Seedlings Law not be affected, which Cai Jing attaches great importance to. So he doesn't have Lin Zhao's courage, and he will never force apportionment, he can't do it!

"What is the status of the guarantor in Qiantang County?" Cai Jing sighed lightly, this is another problem.

Cai He said: "Like us, not many people are willing to come forward to be a guarantor, and the upper class households are avoided. Lin Zhao also did not force this, in order to solve the needs of the few borrowers, he asked the Meng family to appear and made this cotton planting move. ”

Isn't he in a hurry at all? Cai Jing's heart swelled up with this strong curiosity again. The issue of the guarantee of high-class households has become a focal point in all areas where the Seedlings Law is implemented, and many officials are worried about it.

In some prefectures and counties, officials had no choice but to forcibly ask the upper class households to vouch for others. The methods are very tough, and they have caused a lot of complaints, and there are many tragedies that have occurred because of this, such as the case in neighboring Fuyang County. At this point, Cai Jing is okay and has not done anything extreme.

Cai Jing himself was not directly involved, but what would his men do? In order to achieve results, although the officials in Yuhang County will not be so obvious and direct to force when doing things, they will hint through various means openly and secretly.

How dare ordinary people go against the government, under the hints and nudges of the officials, they have to give in. In fact, it is still a threat of deformation, but it is not very obvious, after all, it is still fifty steps and a hundred steps.

Cai Jing has always turned a blind eye to this, which is completely an attitude of acquiescence and even connivance. Because only in this way can the Seedlings Law be implemented smoothly, which is also the political achievement that I need.

The reality is so helpless, since he became the new champion and became an official, he found that the reality is cruel, which is completely different from the benevolent and clear Lang Lang Qiankun in the book. As for the benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith taught in the Book of Sages, it is not entirely feasible in reality.

People must know how to be flexible, otherwise it will be really difficult to go on this road, which is the biggest experience of Cai Jing since he became an official.

But he finally couldn't be as free and easy as Lin Zhao, he thought that he could learn some methods from Qiantang County, but now it seems that it can't be done at all. He doesn't have the financial support of the Meng family, let alone a magical thing like cotton, and he doesn't even know what Lin Zhao's ultimate purpose is!

More important is Lin Zhao's mentality, this method may be able to solve the current situation, but the implementation of the Qingmiao Law is undoubtedly delayed. How should we treat the official family and the king at that time? Cai Jing felt that this problem was very serious and difficult, but Lin Zhao didn't seem to care at all.

This is the difference between him and Lin Zhao, and it is also the reason why he is inferior to Lin Zhao...... Cai Jing couldn't help but sigh, what should I do? At the same time, he also admired Lin Zhao very much, and vaguely had an urge to learn more from Lin Zhao.
