Chapter 701 Inspector
Lao Bainiu: It's almost three million words, and it should be finished next month. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After I finished this book, I started my plan to travel around the country, and I have been looking forward to it for a long time.
……
He sneered: "According to Lao Tian's knowledge, the rich businessmen are extravagant, but it's not just my Xuanfu Town. Everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, with money, which one is not poor and gorgeous? Especially those salt merchants, it costs tens of thousands of dollars to eat, the banquet is set up with hundreds of tables, dozens of dishes, and the pomp is not as good as the princes, my Xuanfu Town is far worse than them! ”
He glared at Li Banghua and said loudly: "Besides, this is the money earned legally by the business owners, why can't you enjoy it?" Li Gong is nitpicking, staring at the shortcomings of my Xuanfu Town, where may there be no defects? Even if some people pass a little, it does not affect the overall situation, and the weather of my Xuanfu Town is the first in Daming! ”
"Good!"
Zhang Gui couldn't help but shout, thinking that Lao Tian's mouth was getting more and more neat, which was justified.
Zhong Zhengxian and the others also nodded, quite dissatisfied with Li Banghua's insistence on pulling the pigtails in Xuanfu Town.
"At the beginning of the rise, which one was not a political communicator?"
Li Banghua said coldly, he looked at Tian Changguo: "In the early days of this dynasty, it was too peaceful and happy. The rule of Zhenguan, the road is not forgotten, and the night is not closed. The rule of Wenjing, the world is peaceful, the special state expenditure is moderate, and the nobles and officials are not allowed to be extravagant and poor. In the early days of the previous dynasties, the politics and people were not worse than the current Xuanfu Town! ”
He said: "The lower officials do not deny that the poor everywhere in the Ming Dynasty have no place to stand, and the rich have no land and luxury. However, this is created by hundreds of years of accumulation, dare to ask Tian Gong, Xuanfu Town has only been developed for a few years, or does Tian Gong think that it is a good thing to be extremely poor? ”
Tian Changguo was speechless for a while.
Li Banghua continued to say coldly: "The evil deeds of the businessmen are inferior, everything they hear is full of smell, and people's hearts are distorted, this is the status quo that only exists after a hundred years of dynasties, but it has appeared in Xuanfu Town!" What will it look like in the next few decades? Xia Guan Sizhi is really creepy! ”
For a while, Wang Dou's hand holding the teacup shook. Get up and leave your seat and pace slowly.
Li Banghua saluted Wang Dou's back and said, "The lower officials do not deny the merits of Dadu Hu. I don't deny the merits of my colleagues, and I don't deny that most of the people in Xuanzhen are still simple and kind, but why be proud? After all, how many years has Xuanfu Town only been developed? ”
He said loudly: "Those who have words have no far-sighted thoughts, but there must be near-term worries." Those who are in power should be far-sighted. Vision. Instead of blindly singing praises of virtue, outsiders are not allowed to find faults! The drawbacks in Baoan Prefecture and other places do exist, so why should the public avoid it. Can't face it? ”
Tian Changguo looked at Li Banghua with hatred, the development of Baoan Prefecture is one of his proud achievements, his hard work to attract investment, in Li Banghua's mouth, it is not worth mentioning, and it is said that it is filthy everywhere, and people's hearts are distorted, which is really hateful!
He snorted: "Dare to ask Bang Huagong, is it important for the common people to eat, or is it important for the filth you said?" ”
He said loudly: "Outsiders eat people, and they don't have anything to eat, so the homeless people keep going to my Xuanfu Town, and the factory owners set up factories everywhere, so that they can recruit workers, give them a mouthful of food, and let them feed their families!" Needless to say, you said that Lao Tian didn't see the filthy things, but there is a little bit, which is more important than the big thing of eating? Or will the factories be shut down and the homeless people will continue to eat people? ”
Zhang Gui also stepped forward and said coldly: "Yes, the local people don't mind, but your Banghua Gong is here to be alarmist, what does this mean?" Do you want to influence the good overall situation of my Xuanfu Town's vigorous development? Or is it that there is some soot lime by the mountain and the river, which affects your taste for Banghua Gong's poetry and painting? ”
As the Minister of Civil Affairs, Zhang Gui certainly can't let Li Banghua deny his hard work like this, and he thinks that what Li Banghua said is also alarmist, and he is even more grandstanding!
What's all the fuss about mere filth? Compared with the practical benefits such as employment and taxation, small problems are not worth mentioning at all.
He also believes that the factories in this town must not be less, but also must be increased, the more the better, it is best to spread throughout the entire Xuanfu Town, the entire Anbei Protectorate, as the general said, let the power of industry, permeate the entire Ming Dynasty.
He also said: "As for the luxury of some factory owners, this is a good thing! Guide the people to consume and increase employment! Just as the owners of the factories in Baoan Prefecture are the main buyers of Yunyan, how many opportunities does this provide to the people? How many people do you need to grow tobacco and how many people can you feed? There are big meat eaters and egg eaters in Baoan Prefecture, so the livestock farms can survive, and how many people can they feed? If you don't take out the money and spend it, is it like the old rich man in Shanxi, who casts all the silver into winter melons and puts it in the cellar to be moldy? ”
Zhang Gui has a rough appearance and a delicate heart, and a series of knives and guns only keep stabbing Li Banghua.
Zhu Zhifeng couldn't stand it, and stood up to help, and the two sides insisted on their own words, and the argument was fierce.
Wang Dou looked at the flying snow outside the window, and was in a trance for a while, this kind of argument came earlier than expected, probably because of the Confucian society, and the scholars and doctors who adhered to the idea of "the unity of heaven and man" were more likely to predict the problems that would arise sensitively.
In Western society, it was not until many years after the Industrial Revolution that people became aware of these things, and at that time, the number of chimneys, the number of factories and mines, was regarded as a symbol of strength, and how could anyone be aware of the possible pollution problem?
Even in later generations of China, because Confucianism did not exist and there was no idea of environmental protection, it paid a very heavy price.
Wang Dou from the later generations of July 28, 2015, to Chongzhen seven years of July 28, in a blink of an eye many years have passed, and then the world shocking things, the same can not forget, the green mountains and green waters do not exist, not to say, the haze of fear, but also shrouded the country's cities, this is the price paid by industrial development.
Xuanfu Town is just the beginning, the future large-scale coal mines, iron mines, textile industry and other industries, but also a large environmental pollution, I am afraid that the future waiting for everyone, is unprecedented confusion and overwhelmed.
This is still external pollution, and the pollution of people's hearts is even worse in the commercial and capitalist society. Money is enough to make people crazy and make a simple person unrecognizable, and he doesn't even know himself.
Although some things are inevitable for society to develop, it is not a good thing for the whole people to pursue profits and go crazy for money.
Because if you put money first, you will inevitably lose your faith. Spiritual emptiness. As a result, there is no restraint in the heart, and in the end there is no scruple in the behavior, and no matter how strict the laws are, they only want to take advantage of loopholes. Instead of complying with it. No matter how abundant the material life is. The same is gold and jade, and it is ruined.
Especially in the future for a long time, Xuanfu Town. and the future Ming Dynasty, will be in the primitive stage of capital accumulation, all kinds of crazy things, maybe Wang Dou himself can't bear to see.
But I come from the future, many detours can still be avoided, since God has the opportunity to let me return to Daming, try to do a little better.
Although Li Banghua and Zhang Gui have their own opinions, although they all have right and wrong, the relationship between environment and development cannot be ignored, and it is better to do it early than later.
And now there is indeed a trend of luxury in Xuanfu Town, many of which are still irrational consumption, although appropriate consumption is very necessary, which can enhance domestic demand, and there is a contrast to be motivated, and it can also stimulate people's hard work.
However, there must be a degree, and it needs to be appropriate, otherwise others will not be motivated in their eyes, but jealous, which is not conducive to the cohesion of people's hearts.
It is undeniable that some of the newly rich families in Xuanfu Town are indeed getting carried away, after all, they were still poor military households a few years ago, and now that they have money, they don't know how to spend it for a while, so they turn to show off and compare, and become full of nouveau riche.
Three generations of aristocracy, materially easy to keep up, but spiritually difficult, the nouveau riche sometimes have all kinds of behavior, inevitably disgusting, but also easy to corrupt the social atmosphere, increase the number of fortunate people, rather than down-to-earth generation.
Wang Dou thinks that he is still effective in the education of the new era, and the young people who come out of the school are of good character and excellent in character and learning, even if there are some small problems, they can add to them, but they are ......
When Wang Dou was thinking about it, he heard Li Banghua say that many mine owners and factory owners tried their best to squeeze workers in order to reduce costs, and even abducted temporary residents, and they were also Han Chinese.
Wang Dou listened to it and felt even more in his heart, a series of capitalist evils that he understood came to his heart, and Xuanfu Town also began?
Then I heard Zhang Gui say angrily: "Working in factories and mines, how can you not be tired?" Compared with the rest of the Ming Dynasty, they still have the opportunity to support their families, you look at the people outside Xuanzhen, what kind of life do they have? …… Besides, there will be no white-flour steamed buns in the sky, if you want to not be tired and not work, don't come to Xuanfu Town, a lot of people are rushing to ask for their work......"
Tian Changguo also snorted coldly: "Xuanzhen's laws are still very strict, and those who disobey the laws will be punished...... Although some factory owners are also kind, they think that the wages are too high, so that there is less time for hiring, so that other displaced people who enter the town have no food...... However, the law is the law, and on our side of the business department, we are also caught and punished one by one, and we will not be soft, so that the factory owners do not dare to ignore the majesty of the general, and in general, it is still flawed...... What is Bang Huagong's intentions, just this little thing, it is also worth putting in front of the general? ”
"Enough!"
Wang Dou waved his hand to stop everyone from arguing, he looked at the snow falling outside the window, and said quietly: "I remember that when the Jingbian Fort was established, Wang had this thought, so that everyone under his rule had food to eat and everyone had clothes to wear!" Now there is a more goal, that is, I, Wang Dou, not only want to let the people under my rule have enough to eat and live a good life, but also let them live with dignity! ”
He turned around, paced in the hall with his hands in his hands, and his eyes swept to everyone: "I have divided my registration to make the whole country orderly, the flowing water is not corrupt, the household hub is not rotten, and it has its own forward momentum." But it does not mean that a high household registration can bully a low household registration, nor does it mean that a Han nationality can be more noble than a temporary residence. In the law, there is no discrimination, and both sides are the same in dignity. If the Han nationality does something wrong, it will also be degraded to the Yi nationality. Temporary residents and Yi nationality have the heart of naturalization, and eventually they will become Chinese! ”
He said lightly: "This is a ladder for the capable to go up and the inferior to go down, which is a respect for ability and wealth, but not a symbol of status." I am very sad to hear that some factory owners are bullying the workers, although there are a large number of people outside Xuanzhen who cannot survive, this is not an excuse for the factory owners to squeeze the workers. After entering Xuanzhen, no matter what nationality they get, they are all the people under the rule of my Wang Dou, that is, they are temporary residents, and they can't be allowed to live like a dog in order to support their families and eat for a living! ”
Ye Xizhi, Fu Mingqi, Zhong Rongren, etc., who were sitting in the hall, were all moved, and the words of the general. This is great compassion and great benevolence.
Li Banghua and Zhu Zhifeng were also surging in their chests, but they didn't expect Wang Dou to say such a thing, and it was inevitable that Xuanfu Town would come to this point.
Zhang Gui and Tian Changguo were ashamed and silent.
Wang Dou finally looked at Li Banghua: "Banghua Gong, you used to be the imperial history of the Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and you are quite good at supervision. There are people everywhere who do not obey the law and abuse the workers. Exploitation of wages. Those who rely on coercion, and do not discharge according to the law, and prevent pollution, can be questioned. The reality of the physical examination. The penalty of the penalty. The rectification ...... of the rectification"
It's not that before entering the modern era, there is no industry pollution, in fact. Even if the scale of coal mines, iron mines, textiles and other industries in Daming is not large, there are still signs of pollution.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, because of the burning of more coal, some cities experienced air pollution and even haze. Some coal mines and iron mines are shrouded in smoke and dust all year round, and a large number of harmful gases and soot are discharged and float on the atmosphere.
During the Guangxu period, Jiading continued to rain salty, plants wilted, and continuous brine rain and black snow appeared in Shanghai, which led to the outbreak of the epidemic throat year after year, because of the perennial soot over Shanghai at that time.
Many people living in Shanghai also have black soot in their nostrils all day long, and as long as the doors and windows of their homes are wide open, it will take a moment to spread a thin layer of soot on the table and couch, so many people have lung disease at that time.
Daming industry and mining are developed, and there are villages and towns with coal mines and iron mines nearby, which are not immune to the pollution of soot, and the fly ash ponds and iron slag heaps that appear on the mine will also pollute the nearby mountains and rivers.
Wang Dou is always hesitant to develop industry on a large scale in the future, after all, the lesson of Britain is very profound, the dense chimneys of the industrial revolution are numerous, the whole country looks like a dust, the whole country is shrouded in an air of suspended harmful particles, and there are not many people who die of lung disease a year.
London was called the Smog Capital at that time, in fact, it should be called the Smog Capital, because the sulfides produced by coal combustion made the air pollution extremely serious, especially in London, the dense chimneys are the power and the god of death.
Moreover, at this time, the textile industry does not look as good as the big polluters in later generations, and most of the natural dyes are used, which will be less harmful than synthetic dyes, in fact, there is also the problem of wastewater and sewage discharge.
Because the textile should be printed and dyed and rinsed, after many processes such as silk training, stone dyeing, bleaching, and residual night discharge, many harmful substances will come out, especially some processes will cause lead deposition, and after bringing it into drinking water, the heavy metals in the water will cause serious harm to the human body.
For example, in the Song Dynasty, the sewage discharge measures of the internal dyeing institute were to divide the waterway into a "training pool", and then use the training pool to directly intersect with the river, so that the turbulent river will immediately wash away the residual liquid.
It is forbidden to build a dyeing workshop in a gentle water flow area, which is also a regulation of Xuanfu Town, but there are always merchants who take advantage of loopholes, and these workshops belong to the objects to be corrected.
“…… You can choose officials and set up a bureau to report directly to Benhou! ”
Everyone was shocked, Zhang Gui and Tian Changguo glanced at each other, and with a word from the general, part of the power of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was lost, which Li Banghua was really hateful.
But on second thought, that's fine.
What Li Banghua wants to do is purely thankless, and if he offends a large number of people, he will be infamous like Du Xun, but what he and others do is on the fair and righteous side, which is very good.
At this moment, Li Banghua was also stunned, he could imagine that if he took over this position, if he had rectified the Beijing camp back then, countless attacks and slanders would come to him, and his fate would not be very good.
It's just that the husband has something to do and something not to do, although there are tens of millions of people, I will go to it, so what if I take over this position? He also wants to see how much Wang Dou supports him, and whether he will be like Emperor Chongzhen back then, after he can't withstand the pressure, he will be dismissed from office.
He bowed his hand and said loudly: "The subordinate will receive the order, and he will definitely live up to the high expectations of the capital!" ”
Wang Dou nodded and said, "Bang Hua Gong let it go, Ben Hou supports you!" ”
He put his hands behind his back and paced slowly in the hall: "There is a way to cultivate oneself, work together, govern the country, and level the world." There are also words that food and clothing are sufficient and know honor and disgrace, and the warehouse is enough to know the etiquette, and now some people in Xuanfu Town are full of warehouses, but they don't know the etiquette, so Benhou wants to set up a Confucian college, specializing in teaching those rich factory owners, mine owners The way of self-cultivation......"
He looked at Li Banghua: "Ben Hou personally appointed this sacrificial wine, and you will be the professor of Banghua Gong, responsible for specific affairs!" ”
It is undeniable that Confucianism has a great educational effect on personal cultivation and interpersonal relations.
After joining the tax-paying army, these people's personal cultivation is indeed higher than that of the locals, and the places where they gather are also more harmonious among the neighbors.
This is the gold mountain left by the ancestors, how can Wang Dou let it go? Therefore, the establishment of a Confucian college to teach people to cultivate themselves has become an urgent matter, and Li Banghua came just right and was the right person.
These orthodox scholars, without the conflict of interests between the family and the state, often have an admirable personality.
Listening to another appointment, Li Banghua trembled, and his heart was even warmer, most of the protectors were still edified, he was dressed neatly, and solemnly saluted Wang Dou: "The subordinate official will definitely live up to the expectations of the Hou Ye!" ”
Wang Dou said: "Well, Duke Li just let it go, Ben Hou supports you!" ”
Soon, Li Banghua went to work with full of enthusiasm, Zhu Zhifeng, Wu Zhi, the governor of Yanqing Prefecture, and Ma Guoxi, the soldier of the East Road, were all brought under his command by him and began to work vigorously, but soon, like Du Xun, he was scolded by everyone inside and outside the town.
He was even scolded as a traitor, and the gentry who praised him in the past turned their faces one by one. (To be continued.) )
