After hearing that the Tang people had been deflated in Baoshan and Shanghai County, Sa Zai was relieved and gradually put away some of his fear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 At that time, the imperial court issued an order to divide Baoshan County and Shanghai County and other places to the Tang people to establish a Shanghai Special Economic Zone belonging to the Tang people, which made Sa Zai extremely shocked in his heart. Shanghai is at the end of the Yangtze River, and the Jiangning where he is stationed is the one where he is stationed, and if the Tang people repeat the changes in Beijing that day, then his fate is estimated to be the same as Qianlong, and he will go overseas to be a barbarian.

Sazai didn't have much wisdom, he didn't want to leave Jiangning, and he didn't want to be destroyed by the Tang people. He saw that the Tang people had scruples about ordinary people, so he came up with this plan and prepared to incite the people in Jiangnan, showing the aura of unity and unity, which frightened the Tang people. But Sazai didn't feel that the troops in his hands were enough to compete with the Tang army, and he was not stupid, so his plan was to give the Tang people a dismount and let them know that Jiangnan was not as easy to be taken by them as Zhili and Guangdong.

Sazai did not rule out some degree of cooperation with the Tang people, at least as long as he could stabilize his position, he could exchange interests with the Tang people, and even allow the Tang people to do business. However, he can't do without his hole cards, and his hole cards are his influence. If he gets stuck in his neck, the Sichuan and Chu immigrants who are in demand by the Tang people will not be able to successfully arrive in Shanghai to board the ship. He can prohibit the sale of goods and other activities in his own jurisdiction.

If someone disdains it and thinks that these are just his delusions, the Tang army can destroy him as soon as he sends troops. Sazai himself does not deny this, but Sazai also thinks that he can bargain, the Tang people messed up, he also messed up, and he completely smashed Jiangnan, this flower and country were ruined, and the finance and taxes were ruined. Millions of people want to coerce them to deal with the Tang people, anyway, it is the life of the Han people, and it is worthless. In the end, even if he died, he pulled millions of Jiangnan people to make his back, which made the Tang people feel painful. This is his trick, if the Tang people really come for profit. Then for the sake of interests, you can't embarrass me, cooperate with me, everyone is beneficial, if the table is lifted, then no one can eat this meal.

I have to say that Sa Zai's idea really has some effect, and it really makes the Tang people a little jealous, after learning that the Tang people did not have any conflicts with the instigated people in Baoshan and Shanghai County. Instead, he retreated to the countryside, and Sazai felt that his plan could come true. It's just that he didn't know that it didn't take much effort for the Tang people to control a group of locals to help them.

Sa Zai is a very smart pigtail official, he has vaguely touched the threshold of public opinion warfare, but he does not have a complete theory and sufficient method, but in his opinion, it is the most correct to win over readers. Scholars have always held the right to speak in society, even if they are Qing people. In the end, I reached an agreement with the reader.

Therefore, Sazai agitated a group of scholars. Spread anti-Tang sentiment to them, hoping to ignite anti-Tang sentiment in the whole Jiangnan and make the Tang people afraid. Of course, in order to coerce more ordinary people and increase the difficulty of the Tang people to use force against him, Sazai promulgated new measures. That is to encourage the people to train the people to be brave and form associations for self-defense. He also thought of a way to put these people under his command, of course, the difficulty was quite high, and he was quite wishful thinking. But. If there is a real war, he can push these people who don't know how to fight at all to die at the front, and if they die too much, the Tang people themselves will feel distressed.

Jiangning, a pavilion house, several young scholars sat together, talking loudly. It's just that the dress of the horse coat and pig's tail braid makes them have no kind of literary and brilliant aura at all, and they have no robe and big sleeves Hanfu, but they have never compared them, and they will not know this.

"The court is weak, let the Tang people oppress, and by the Tang people's coercion, the imperial examination was greatly reformed, and the original serious eight-share scholars were abolished at will, where are my thousands of students?" The young scholar with clear eyebrows said.

"What Wen Da said is very true, the court has done all kinds of things, perverse behavior, and moral degradation. The imperial examination is no longer a selection of talents, and the subset of economic history is only reduced to inferiority, but it relies on those chaotic untouchables, the people's hearts are not ancient, and the world is declining! Another scholar sighed, really thinking of himself as a great power to worry about the country and the people.

At this time, the young man sitting at the head of the table closed the folding fan in his hand and said, "Ji En, talk about the court in vain, be cautious." ”

The young man named Ji En didn't care, and said, "They are all close friends here, everyone is just talking in private, what can they do." ”

Wen Da also said: "Besides, Jiangning is not a place that the imperial court can control now, and Lord Sa, the governor of Liangjiang, is still guarding the ancestral Taoism, fortunately with him, otherwise I don't know what this stone city will become." ”

The young man at the top opened the door again, shook it gently, and said: "In the month of Layue, Enke was opened in the capital, and hundreds of people got official positions, and most of them went directly to office, and many stayed in the capital. I also studied the new policies of the imperial court and found that if this is implemented, although the imperial examination has changed, it is not so difficult to appoint officials, and the number of officials from all over the country to the imperial court has increased, and the rights and responsibilities have been implemented, and the things that the officials did in the past are also in the light. ”

Ji En said: "Yes, there are so many officials here, what kind of officials are decent, the court is decent, and the redundant government is especially harmful to the people, if there are some corrupt officials such as Li Shiyao and Guotai, corruption and looting, what good can this country be?" Even if you don't talk about corruption, the officials are enough to crush the imperial court. ”

The young man said: "Otherwise, the imperial court will leave the officials in the open place, and go to raise incorruptible silver, and the money that originally invited the master and the like will be done by serious officials, and the money will not affect the household finances too much." In addition, the new policy has the theory of opening up sources and reducing expenditures, and if the national revenue increases, there is no risk of change. ”

Wen Da stared at him and said, "Brother Qifeng, you still seem to support the new policy of the imperial court?" ”

This person said: "It's not easy to say, if these new policies can be implemented, I am afraid that they can really benefit the country and the people, but if they are not properly employed and not widely implemented, I am afraid that it will be the same as the Northern Song Dynasty Wang Anshi's reforms, which will be absurd." ”

Ji En said: "Yes, it is indeed like Wang Anshi's change of law, it must be a bad thing." It's just that the Tang people are on the side, if the imperial court is also in decline like the Northern Song Dynasty, I am afraid that the ambitions of the Tang people will also harm my Qing Dynasty. ”

Qi Feng couldn't help laughing and said, "This metaphor is also surprising. The imperial court is the court of the Manchurians, and it is a foreign race from outside the Guan, but the Tang people are our Han people. ”

Wenda said, "How can it be the same? The Qing Dynasty is the orthodoxy of the country, although it is the Manchu emperor, but the Manchu and Han families are the national policy. Although the Tang people are Han Chinese, they are strangely dressed, morally corrupt, greedy for money and power, and the monarch is not a monarch and a minister, which is ridiculous. Those who go to China, how can they be called Huaxia? ”

Qi Feng no longer wanted to convince the two friends, and just smiled silently.

Over there, Ji En said again: "Brother Qifeng, although the imperial court is weak, my generation should have the heart to save the country, be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, serve the imperial court, and have no way out!" Today, only the Governor of Liangjiang, Lord Sa is dedicated to defending my Taoism and saving my Qing Dynasty, at this time, Lord Sa is the time to use people, love is thirsty, my three brothers, all have the ability to govern the country and the world, why not enter the Governor's Palace, and seek a way out? ”

Qi Feng shook his head and said: "Sa Zai's vision is insufficient, his strength is narrow, and he has a limit, not to mention that the imperial court is still there, he plans to open a small imperial court, that is, rebellion, I Feng Shaozhi will not vote for him, and persuade the two brothers not to look at the current situation, Xuanle and him go all the way to the dark, it is not a long-term way." ”

Wen Da said angrily: "I can't imagine that Brother Qifeng is so short-sighted!" ”

Feng Shaozhi shook the fan lightly and said: "Whether it is short-sighted or not, we will not know until the future." ”

Wen Da said: "In this case, the Tao is not compatible with each other, so don't pass it." ”

Ji En also said: "In the past, when I was poor, I was mostly cared for by Brother Feng, but now I have the help of the Governor, and I have obtained an official and a half-position, and the glory and wealth are close at hand. ”

Feng Shaozhi nodded, beckoned his subordinates to send off the guests, and looked at the backs of the two leaving, and couldn't help but have a sneer overflowing from the corners of his mouth. What a smart person he was, he could naturally see that these two people had actually taken refuge in Sazai a long time ago, and although they said that they were against him for chanting poetry today, they were actually here to be lobbyists. After Sa Zai seized Jiangnan, in order to expand his strength, he recruited many people, and directly sealed their official positions without going through the imperial court. Those two people are also considered to have some talents, and they are also favored by Feng Shaozhi, but they didn't expect that they were not on the table after all, and seeing that this was a shortcut, they got on the thief ship of Sazai.

Feng Shao's family is illustrious, and several generations of his family have been officials in the court, and the Feng family is even more business-related and wealthy. In the early years, the Feng family took the high branch of the Jiangning weaving Cao family, and later the Feng family switched to the salt administration system and accumulated a lot of family wealth. Feng Shaozhi is twenty-seven years old this year, and he was originally going to participate in the palace examination, but he didn't expect a change in Beijing. He has been a good reader since he was a child, loves anecdotes, and is good at studying, and is known as a prodigy and has a great reputation.

Since the Tang people came to Guangdong many years ago, he has learned a lot about the Tang people, and has also read the customs and customs of the Tang people. He was born in Jiangnan, and he has already seen the germination of capitalism and the development of modernization, and he is not pedantic, seeking innovation and change.

"The Feng family has been an official of the Manchu Dynasty for three generations, and now the general trend of the world has changed, even if you want to be a rich man in peace, I am afraid that it will not work, so it is better to go to Shanghai to take a look, what kind of fantasy is the Tang world. If it is the right way, maybe the peace and well-being of the next three generations of the Feng family will be tied to this. Feng Shaozhi muttered to himself, got up and floated away.
