Chapter 157: A Tedious Battle (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Wang Fulin only stood, not the big lama occupying the main position. In this way, even the eunuchs who were very dissatisfied with his position last time in the government feel much more comfortable now.

"To be able to invite Duan Fuzun and all the old gentlemen and uncles and elders to come, the students are really scared and happy. I don't think you want to listen to those pleasantries, so I'll get straight to the point. Several villagers in Nanxinan, She County, suffered from price reduction because of selling grain, and as a result, they smashed a Xiuning Wu's rice store in Fucheng. In such a straightforward way, Wang Fulin saw that the representative of the Nanxi Nanwu clan over there, Wu Zhongming, a clan uncle who had been a county order, frowned, and he nodded apologetically at the other party.

"The reason why I want to invite you here so urgently is because the students are afraid that the dispute between She County and the five counties will repeat itself. Seeing that there are only a few days left in the final shipping deadline of the summer tax, if there is another case, the consequences will be unimaginable. She County Liangxi South, not up to Xiuning a Shang Mountain, this is not for the time being, but all the rice lines in Fucheng County are added together, about more than ten families, of which there are only two in She County, and the rest are the foundation of the other five counties, and now the summer tax is directly collected and discounted silver, the farmers have worked hard for a year, and the grain finally collected has to be sold cheaply for silver to pay the tax, who has no fire in his heart? ”

"But now, the villagers of Nanxi South Village made a big mistake on impulse and smashed Xiuning Wu's rice shop, so in Fucheng County, except for the two She County rice shops, the rest of the "five county rice shops joined hands to boycott and no longer accept my people to sell grain." Now is the last moment of summer tax payment, and everyone should know what this means! ”

Duan Chaozong was deeply impressed by Wang Xiaoxiucai before. At this time, I heard that he really didn't say a word about Xia Shui silk. Suddenly my heart was at ease. But he glanced at the four Shexian squires, and saw that the old god Wang Shangning was there, and the rest of the people were talking to each other, and he couldn't help but worry again. He is the prefect of Huizhou, and he has been trying his best to balance the first six counties, and this difficult balance can no longer be maintained after Shuai Jiamo pierced the window paper of Xia tax silk at the beginning of the year. His only hope at the moment was. I can survive until I leave office safely!

"What this means, everyone knows very well! Xia Shui Silk sent me to Shexian alone, and the other five counties have enjoyed peace for many years, and now when I see that my Sheren is aware of this, they simply draw their salaries from the bottom of the kettle, which is really vicious! ”

At this time, someone suddenly interrupted Wang Fulin's words with a sneer, and Duan Chaozong's heart tightened. But before he could stand up and suppress the situation, three or four voices came back to the old story. Thinking of the news that Ye Junyao had mentioned to him before that Nanjing Hubu Fei sent white grain, he was still a little skeptical. In the end, the official document came, and the chaos was quelled. Now that he has suddenly turned over the old accounts again, he finally realized that some people are not afraid to make a fuss about this matter at the end of the tax payment, and I am afraid that they have already decided that the Nanjing household department is just bluffing!

Thinking that Wang Daokun was no longer there, he saw that Wang Fulin's face was delicate, as if he had not anticipated it enough, and he couldn't suppress the situation, he suddenly sighed secretly.

Just when he had no hope for Wang Fulin, he only heard this little show suddenly raise his voice and said: "Everyone, what I am talking about now is that the villagers are blocked from selling grain, and they can't exchange grain for silver, so they can't pay taxes. If you really think about me and others, then these old gentlemen, who have just been filled with righteous indignation, might as well personally write a joint letter to the Imperial Inspectorate of the Imperial History, and even the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate and Nanjing Household Department, and ask them to come forward to investigate and make a decision, wouldn't it be the best? ”

As soon as these words came out, his head suddenly quieted down a little. Most of the eunuchs do things with power, or let others rush to the front, create their own public opinion offensive behind, shout and shout, and use joint pressure at the beginning, charging in front of the way to make trouble, that is definitely not their style. Taking advantage of the moment to temporarily suppress this wave of offensive, Wang Fulin opened his mouth again.

"I invite all the elders to come here today, just to propose a proposal. There are few people in my Huizhou capital, and every spring, the price of buying grain is expensive, but every autumn harvest, the price of selling grain is cheap, so when the tax is paid, the peasants sell grain for money, and they are often anxious. In this case, can we all sympathize with the suffering in the township, and we can open another grain store? ”

As soon as he heard this, Wang Shangning finally opened his mouth: "The future is terrifying!" It's just that your idea sounds feasible, but in fact it is too nonsense, the villagers can't sell grain, so we have to open another grain store; If there is a shortage of other things in the future, do you want me to wait for them to be solved one by one? ”

Wang Fulin ignored Wang Shangning's cynicism and continued: "This is not my first creation, originally there were often community warehouses, righteous warehouses in various places, and even the reserve warehouses set by Grandpa Taizu as the system back then, all of which were for this purpose, to harvest grain in a bumper year, in order to prevent the grain from hurting the peasants, and to prepare for the disaster year, but now it is no longer possible to stabilize the grain price, or prevent the grain from hurting the peasants." When I say grain stores, I mean that when the summer and autumn grain taxes are paid every year, the price is slightly higher than that of ordinary rice stores, and the grain purchased from the peasants is equivalent to two taels of silver, and you can even refer to the enlistment books in each township, so that you can kill two birds with one stone. As for recovering the capital, when the spring is beginning or when the price of grain rises, you can sell it at a lower price than the market price. In the name of the grain store, the practice of righteousness, therefore, I plan to name it a righteous store. ”

The moment he heard the meaning of his words, the entire third floor was silent. Duan Chaozong smiled in his heart, but the word pedantic did not come out. These rich gentry are just expecting them to really come forward to do this kind of thing under the guise of seeking benefits for the township, which is simply seeking the skin of the tiger!

I don't know how long it took before someone finally let out a dry laugh: "On paper!" Fu Lin, if Nan Ming is here, he will definitely say the same about you! ”

Wang Fulin looked in the direction of speaking, and he knew that Wang Shangning would definitely jump out to object. Sure enough, because the meaning he put forward was greatly unexpected, Wang Shangning could only go out in person at this time.

"You just said that others are sacrificing their roots, but aren't you a headache doctor and a foot pain doctor? The burden on She County is heavy. The biggest thing is that there are thousands of taels of summer tax silk every year! ”

Seeing that the old lady Wang Huo Ran got up. finally attacked in public. While accusing Wang Fulin and bringing up the old things again, Cheng Naixuan couldn't help but jump his temples twice. He was about to attack, but suddenly met his father, Master Cheng's blocking gaze. Although this is the first time he has met his father face to face since he ran away from home, he has never said a word before, and now he has lost the mouse and cat of the past, thinking about it, he still decided to follow Wang Fulin's instructions and not act rashly.

Really. At this time, he only listened to Wang Fulin and pushed back without giving in: "Old lady Wang is wrong, the heavy burden of She County lies in the fact that no one is willing to come forward and use the most practical way to reduce the burden of farmers a little!" Instead of fighting again and again over the matter of desperately rummaging through the pile of old papers, what kind of momentum is created, why don't you put this matter aside and do something for your parents and fellow villagers? In the final analysis, the Pingxia tax silk silk wants the court to nod. But the righteous shop is immediate, so why not? ”

Wang Shangning was furious by Wang Fulin. If it is replaced by him as the governor of Yunnan or the governor of Southern Jiangxi. When encountering such an arrogant student, he will definitely beat people out with a roar. However, the moment he clenched the handrail, he thought that it was no longer time for him to be a feudal official. But even so, after returning to his hometown, the old lady Wang, who had a unique reputation in She County for a while, still couldn't swallow this breath, he glanced at Wang Youmin, who was standing beside him, and the latter immediately understood and took a step forward.

"Didn't Wang Xiaoxianggong mean that in the past, people threw their heads and spilled their blood, just to seek fairness in the summer tax, but it was useless?"

"Of course, it is not useless for the predecessors to throw their heads and spill their blood, but when is it now? It is the final shipping deadline of the summer tax, and it is the critical juncture for farmers to wait for the grain to be sold for money after harvesting! ”

What Wang Fulin thought at this moment was what Wang Daokun said to him at the beginning, that the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes were like cow hair, but in the final analysis, what summer tax silk was not at all comparable to the temporary apportionment of military expenditures, as well as those more and more famous annual offices, but as long as he still had a little sense, it was impossible to put this on the table. That is tantamount to declaring in public that the heaviest burden on the head of the people is the emperor Lao Tzu and the war, which is no different from writing anti-poems in public.

Therefore, he can only argue with Wang Youmin in a righteous and strict manner. Everyone present had only heard of his glorious deeds such as refuting Wang Qiu in front of the Great Grandmaster, pulling down Zhao Sicheng in the Shexian Court, and scolding Shu Tuiguan with Ye Xianzun, but few people had really seen it on the spot, and even Cheng Naixuan had only seen the only time he had seen the battle to defend his fame. Therefore, Wang Fulin and Wang Youmin, the two young generation of the Wang family in She County, listened to it as if they were watching the excitement, and gradually developed a feeling that they were not worthy of the name.

Only Duan Chaozong, the prefect of Huizhou, was thoughtfully distracted. I thought that Shu Tuiguan gave Wang Fulin a four-word evaluation of not doing business, but this Wang Xiaoxiu responded in an instant with a big killer in the town, and now the couplet of the wind and rain is still hanging high outside the door of Ziyang Academy in Shexian School Palace. From this and that, he gradually thought of the inexplicable illness of Ye Junyao, who was ordered by Shexian County. Because of this illness, after acting as deputy Fang County, under the pretext of investigating the smashing incident thoroughly, the case has not been tried until now, which will make those rice shops let out a rumor that they will not accept people's grain if they don't give justice.

Wang Fulin is fighting with people at the moment, could it be that he still has a trick?

Wang Youmin became more and more courageous, only feeling that the rumors about Wang Fulin in the past were exaggerated, and the appreciative eyes of his uncle and grandfather Wang Shangning on the side made him flutter. Therefore, he suddenly said loudly: "If you want to quell the refusal of those rice grain stores to accept people to sell grain, in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome at all, just need to be resolute and resolute in Shexian County, and after the case is justly tried in accordance with the law!" Wang Xiaoxianggong gave up this simplest way, but he also called on everyone to follow what Yicang Shecang opened a righteous store, which is the real sacrifice of the basics! As far as I know, the Wang clan of Songmingshan is rich, can't they even take out this money? ”

Hearing his nephew's last words, Wang Shangning almost applauded directly. Since Wang Daokun asked you to represent the Wang clan of Songming Mountain, do you really have the ability to mobilize that huge amount of money?

At this time, Hong Renwu, the owner of the champion building, who had just led the guest and host upstairs, quietly retreated to the bottom, but hurriedly went upstairs. He didn't have time to stand firmly, so he said with a worried face: "Fuzun, old gentlemen, something is wrong!" The front of the champion building was blocked by a large group of villagers, and it seemed that there were hundreds! ”
