In early May, Su Tiancheng finally returned to Henan Mansion.

When he came back this time, he faced a lot of things, Zhang Pu was already so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, and he had almost no time to rest, mainly because after the Jiangning battalion conquered Zhang Xianzhong, he brought back a large number of family members from Shanxi.

This is actually Su Tiancheng's bad idea.

The population of Henan Mansion has increased dramatically, bringing a lot of benefits, consumption has increased significantly, and the merchants are smiling from ear to ear, no matter which aspect, the consumption is greatly increased, and their business is more prosperous, which prompts more businessmen to begin to enter Henan Mansion, plus the Jiangning camp stationed in Henan Mansion, which is already famous in the world, no one dares to cause trouble on the boundaries of Henan Mansion, the only thing that makes merchants feel dissatisfied is that the taxes determined by the government are obviously a little high, but the taxes of the government are high, In other aspects, there is no expense, there is no need to honor the officials, and it is also a good feeling to do business in a down-to-earth manner.

Zhang Pu's main consideration was the issue of cultivated land and cities.

In the suburbs of Luoyang County, in less than a year, another market town has been formed, the area is even larger than the area of Luoyang City, and the people who first lived here were mainly the families of the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion, and later some foreign farmers who settled down in Henan Province also began to live here.

Thirteen counties in one prefecture under the jurisdiction of Henan Prefecture basically have such a situation, and even the most remote Ruxiang County has such a situation, and the government has issued a notice to the state and county statistics on the population situation. Once a month, try to grasp all the population of Henan Province.

There are many people, and there must be many things, and the disputes between the locals and the outsiders, the disputes between the families of the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion and the locals, including some disputes between the locals, are all trivial matters. Some also directly found the government office, although it was in the spring ploughing season, the Fuzhou County Yamen did not make a notice, but Zhang Pu still had to deal with these things.

This time, nearly 100,000 people entered Henan Mansion, which brought great pressure to Zhang Pu's affairs.

With so many people, it must be well settled, especially the captives who include 20,000 rogues, if they can't be properly settled, there may be a big problem.

Zhang Pu was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground. Su Tiancheng went to the capital, and he went for such a long time.

Since Zhang Pu became the Tongzhi of Henan Mansion, Su Tiancheng rarely cares about the affairs of the government, except for big things, such as the arrangement of work throughout the year, etc., the rest of the things are directly responsible for Zhang Pu, including money, food and criminal names. Zhang Pu also understood what Su Tiancheng meant by doing this. On the one hand, it is to trust yourself, and on the other hand, it is also to create opportunities for yourself, and it is very likely that after a long time, you will be the prefect of Henan Prefecture.

Zhang Pu also has a big thing, which is to support the central society.

This thing. The importance even exceeds the criminal title and money and food matters.

With the deepening of his understanding of the Zhongxing Society, Zhang Pu has long felt that the responsibilities of the Zhongxing Society are not ordinary, and the important thing is to change some conventional views and opinions of readers. In particular, it was emphasized that the gentry and wealthy families must make necessary contributions to the development of the imperial court, and could not enjoy privileges on the one hand and not make any contributions on the other.

This kind of thinking has been fully implemented in Jiangning County and Henan Prefecture, and the changes in the two places have been turned upside down from time to time, which shows that this view is correct.

In terms of the policy towards businessmen, Su Tiancheng's views are different, almost contrary to the rules of the imperial court, the status of businessmen in Jiangning County and Henan Prefecture is very good, they can often go in and out of the government at all levels, and even care about the big things of the government, which is simply a big rebellion in the eyes of other places.

But the facts are in front of him, after really acting for the affairs of the government, Zhang Pu felt the importance of the merchants, the annual income of the yamen in Fuzhou County, ninety percent comes from these merchants, as for the taxes on agriculture, it seems insignificant, Henan Prefecture is a state and thirteen counties, the total amount of taxes collected by the government at all levels is more than three million taels of silver, of which the field endowment is less than 100,000 taels of silver, which is really a drop in the bucket.

In the process of practice, he felt more and more that Su Tiancheng was a little divine, and he seemed to know everything.

Although the number of peasant households pouring into Henan Prefecture has increased unprecedentedly, there has been no displacement, and the agricultural warehouses set up by the government at all levels have not consumed much grain, all because the peasants have participated in the project of dredging the Yellow River, have been paid, and can feed their families.

According to Su Tiancheng's arrangement, the government at all levels has made every effort to do a good job in agricultural production, so that the grain harvest in Henan Province has been bumper, the people can eat their stomachs, and they have generally settled down.

The benefits brought by the merchant are also reflected at this time, after the busy spring ploughing and production, some farmers enter the merchant workshop to do things, and can get a certain income, which is of great help to improve the life of the family.

After such a long time, Zhang Pu finally understood, for what Su Tiancheng often emphasized, to have a virtuous circle, to follow a certain law, to do things can not be taken for granted, through such a long time of exploration and summary, he finally understood what this virtuous circle meant.

Su Tiancheng returned to the mansion, and before he had time to catch his breath, Zhang Pu and Tan Changluo came in a hurry.

"My lord, the lower officials are so busy that they don't know what to do."

"During this time, Lord Zhang has worked hard, many things in Fuzhou County, I know the way, recently, the main thing is the matter of personnel placement, the population of Henan Province has exceeded two million, last year's statistics, or 530,000 people, suddenly increased so many people, there must be a lot of problems, fortunately, the current situation is stable, you have contributed a lot."

"Everything is the credit of the adults, and the lower officials and Lord Tan are just doing things according to the requirements of the adults."

"Merit is merit, I am in Jingshi, and I have already asked for credit for the two adults, Lord Tan, the problem you considered, how did you solve it, tell the truth."

Tan Changluo had a bitter face, his task is not ordinary, mainly to require the rich gentry in Henan Province to rent the land, the taxes collected must meet the requirements put forward by the government, that is, 20% of the total income, such a request has been resisted by many gentry and rich households, but the government is not merciless in this regard, and the government government tries its best to make it difficult to live in peace when it does not comply.

As a result, Tan Changluo was also scolded miserably.

"My lord, the lower officials did as required, and on the whole, the situation is still good, especially since the beginning of this year, the government has asked the prefectures and counties to strictly implement the policy, and there must be no excesses, but individual problems still exist."

A smile appeared on Su Tiancheng's face.

"Lord Tan, I've worked hard for you, what's the problem, I know the way, isn't it just King Fu, it's also very difficult to ask you to do such a thing, I'll go directly to King Fu."

Tan Changluo heard Su Tiancheng say this, and quickly stood up.

"The lower officials are ashamed, they haven't done such things well, and they are ashamed of the trust they place in their adults."

"It's not your responsibility."

Su Tiancheng knew that Zhu Youxiang wanted to follow the Jiangning camp to Shanxi to fight, but Zhu Youxiang did not allow it, and reprimanded him, even Sun Chengzong, when it came to the matter of the vassal king, he also asked him to be careful.

What Zhu Youxiang entrusted himself to do, he didn't do it, what the government required, Zhu Youxiang naturally wanted to be embarrassed, in fact, what Zhu Youxiang thought of was to see himself, not to be particularly embarrassed by the government, in this case, of course Tan Changluo couldn't do this job.

Su Tiancheng didn't want to see Zhu Youxiang for the time being, he had already written a letter to Zhu Youxiang, and I believe that Zhu Youxiang would soon be able to understand the truth after seeing this letter.

"Lord Tan, tomorrow you go directly to King Fu's mansion and hand over this letter to Prince Fu, don't leave for the time being, just wait for news in the palace, if King Fu is still unwilling to do what the government asks, I will visit in person."

Tan Changluo took the letter and immediately spoke.

"My lord, it's still early, and the next official will go to King Fu's mansion."

"It's okay, otherwise the tenants who rent the land of King Fu will be uneasy, and those gentry and rich families are also looking at King Fu."

After Tan Changluo left, Su Tiancheng faced Zhang Pu and said what he had wanted to say a long time ago.

"Lord Zhang, during this time, you have done a very good job, I think at the beginning, we used to be opponents, there is a great bias in understanding, with your identity, to be able to make such a change, I am grateful, this time I went to the capital, recommended you and Lord Tan Changluo, it is estimated that the holy decree of the imperial court will arrive soon, Lord Tan may leave Henan Mansion and return to Beijing, you need to think about it, the official allocation of the government office, the next time, my main energy, is still in the Jiangning camp, The Jiangning Battalion has changed its structure, and you already know about it, so I won't say more. ”

"My lord, the recommendation of the officials of this government, the lower officials still have to listen to the opinions of the adults."

"You don't have any hesitation, since you are in charge of the affairs of the government, you must have a few capable subordinates, trustworthy officials, and do things much more smoothly, the development speed of Henan Mansion is very fast, you have to be mentally prepared, and the imperial court is paying more and more attention to Henan Mansion."

Although Su Tiancheng did not say it explicitly, Zhang Pu already understood that after a short time, Su Tiancheng may have to leave Henan Mansion, and he may have to govern Henan Mansion.

Suddenly hearing Su Tiancheng say this, Zhang Pu's heart was a little uncomfortable, although it was not a long time, he was used to doing things under Su Tiancheng.

"My lord, the lower officials understand, and the lower officials will definitely recommend talents carefully."

"Well, I have a suggestion, your student Wu Weiye is still good, see if it is possible, let him come to Henan Mansion." (To be continued......)
