Salt Iron Pond, the old legend of Wu Wangbi chiseled, to transport salt and iron, south to Wusong River, north to Yangtze River, from Yangshe Town, Shazhou County, South Zhili, through Luyuan, West Yang into Changshu County's Fushan, Zhao City, Meili, Zhitang, into Taicang County's Zhitang, Chengxiang Town, to the south through Jiading County's Gelong, Waigang, Fangtai, in Huangdu Town to meet Wusong River, a total length of nearly 200 miles. Parallel to the Yangtze River, it connects the Wusong River and the Huangpu River, and passes through the Grand Canal to connect Zhejiang.

Everywhere you go, you will find the rich Jiangnan region, which is rich in products, prosperous in commerce and trade, and has a huge freight volume. Even in peacetime, the salt and iron pond can relieve the pressure on the Grand Canal and prosper commerce. What's more, now the Japanese are rampant, the sea routes are not smooth, and there are many dangers. If the salt and iron pond can be repaired, the value is immeasurable!

Tang Yi smiled calmly: "In the past, relying on the power of the imperial court alone, it took a lot of money to recruit people and build water conservancy, which was a chore. But now it is different, the merchants are the most affected group of people, and their expectations for the salt and iron pond are stronger than ever. At this time, as long as you know the benefits and take the checkpoint tax after the completion of the canal as a guarantee, you can borrow silver and grain from merchants, and rely on money and grain to drive tens of thousands of homeless refugees to build salt and iron ponds. ”

Wei Liangfu knows the most about local government affairs, and although Tang Yi's idea is novel, the old man can accept it. However, Chen Menghe was a little hesitant: "Borrowing money from businessmen is insulting to Sven, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?" ”

"Nothing wrong!" Tang Shunzhi sneered, "In recent years, the taxes of the imperial court have become less and less, and it is common to go into debt to get by, even the six departments of the capital, why can't it be done locally!" ”

Chen Menghe had nothing to say, but Wei Liangfu said slowly: "Borrow money, just put it in the dark, everyone does this, no one dares to expose it." The old man was worried that other states and counties would be hindered along the way. ”

When Tang Shunyi heard this, he immediately disagreed, and said with a smile: "Shangquan Gong, you are also confused, Yantietang mainly passes through Taicang and Jiading, Taicang is no problem, can Jiading refuse?" ”

But no, don't forget that Jiading is the most seriously poisoned by the Japanese invaders, and it can solve the refugee problem, no matter who is in power, 10,000 are willing.

Wei Liangfu thought for a moment, all the seemingly difficult problems were not a problem, and his face couldn't help but show a look of horror. Also shocked was Tang Shunzhi.

These two are so smart, Tang Yi's plan actually takes into account all aspects. First of all, the imperial court can have a canal without spending a penny, and fools will agree, secondly, the local canal can be built to solve the refugee problem, which is also a great political achievement, and thirdly, although the merchants pay money, they are also the main beneficiaries of the canal, and they can also have a tax guarantee, not only do not suffer losses, but also make a lot of money, as for the refugees, if they have a job to do, they will have a job, and they will be happy.

After all the calculations, the big aspects have been taken care of, and even if there are some small impacts, they can be easily settled. Just like Changwen Paper Shop, Tang Yi, this kid does everything well, so that all parties are satisfied, who can not be unwilling for him to drive! With such a method, no matter how many people want to learn, they can't learn it. Both of them had the urge to pry his head open to see what was inside.

Tang Yi saw them change their faces and change color, and looked at himself from time to time, his eyes were full of weirdness, which frightened him for a while.

"Master, Mr. Jing Chuan, is there any loophole?"

"No, you're much better than us!" Tang Shunzhi laughed self-deprecatingly: "Lord Chen, what do you think?" ”

Chen Menghe also nodded in admiration: "Seamless, it's perfect!" The talent of the virtuous nephew is immeasurable! ”

Hey, directly to the level of Zhuge Liang, Tang Yi was a little embarrassed.

Tang Shunzhi was discerning, and said with a smile: "You kid don't need to be modest, such a good thing for the country and the people, we all listen to your drive, say, what to do?" ”

Such a big thing, one person will definitely not be able to do it, Tang Yi pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "If things are slow, it will be round, the refugees are weak and need a period of recovery." Surveying the old canal course, planning the construction plan, and determining the operation strategy of the canal must be clarified, and the slightest mistake will fall short. Give me ten days to come up with a complete plan. In addition, Lord Chen was also asked to write to the Suzhou Mansion and even the imperial court to seek support. Mr. Jing Chuan and his mentor contacted the powerful gentry in the southeast, and they knew the righteousness, and they had to rely on them for money and food. ”

When the three of them heard this, they nodded together, Tang Yi was indeed much more mature than them.

After discussing it, they went to their respective jobs.

Tang Yi also participated in disaster relief and renovation of dilapidated houses in his previous life, although he may not be the right person, but he also has a lot of ideas. Over the next 10 days, he called in the refugee representatives and gave them a rough idea, and the refugees had nothing to say, as long as they could eat, and it didn't matter how much effort they could make.

"Don't worry, big guy, I Tang Yi don't dare to say that I am fair and selfless, but I will take care of the big guy, as long as the canal can be built, I guarantee that your life will be better."

After a few days, the refugees already have unconditional trust in Tang Yi. Especially the plan that Tang Yi came up with sounded reliable, not nonsense, they were all looking forward to it.

After communicating well with the refugees, Tang Yi found Zhou Xun again and asked him to send some errand soldiers to follow him to inspect the old road of the Yantietang Canal and write a plan.

For ten days in a row, Tang Yi slept for only one or two hours every night, which made Tang Xiucai feel distressed to death, and he personally accompanied his son to run. In the past few days, Tang Xiucai has learned a lot of skills from his son, and his ability to do things has greatly improved.

Seeing the arrival of the ten-day period, an even greater piece of good news came.

The news of the fall of Jiading was finally sent to the capital, and just after the New Year, the joyful Emperor Jiajing was completely angry. I heard that the little eunuch who sent the letter had a big tongue, and he actually said that Jiading was "Jiajing", which provoked Emperor Daojun and killed him directly. called Yan Song and Xu Jie over again, scolded them, and the dog's head was bloody.

On the spot, he dismissed Fu Boliang, the prefect of Suzhou, as the new prefect of Suzhou, transferred Wang Chonggu, the prefect of Anqing, as the new prefect of Suzhou, and sent Jinyi Wei to arrest Zhu Zhiliang, the prefect of Jiading County, for questioning.

Xu Jie, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the Japanese are making trouble, and they are in trouble, and the provinces of Fujian and Zhejiang." The civil and military officials of the provinces are in their own affairs, and they do not belong to each other, and when we discover the enemy's situation, we do not know how to inform the other side, and if we are killed, the other side cannot support them. Therefore, Wei Chen suggested that an official be set up to supervise the overall situation, and I implore His Majesty for permission. ”

As soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was any, and a cold light flashed in the eyes of the old Yan Ge, who had white hair. Xu Jie's high-sounding words just want to take the opportunity to take the southeast into his hands?

Since this little man entered the cabinet, he has been extremely obedient on the surface, but in fact, he has actively expanded his strength, first pushing the teacher Nie Bao to the position of the secretary of the ministry, and then interfering in the southeast of the wealth-rich land, you really am Yan Song is face pinching! If it weren't for His Majesty's scruples, the old man would have 10,000 ways to kill you!

Can't you, old man, it depends on how far you can toss!

"Elder Xu Ge, do you have a suitable candidate?" Yan Song asked in an old-fashioned manner.

Xu Jie hurriedly bowed and saluted, not daring to slack off at all.

"The old Qiyu Pavilion, the governor of Shandong, Wang Chen, has made outstanding political achievements, and Ren Shuntian has built a castle to resist me from entering the Imperial History, both civil and military, and can be a great task."

Yes!

Yan Song couldn't help but be surprised, Wang Chen, this guy really couldn't find fault, and he was so lucky that he gave birth to the son of the leader of the literary world. However, he is from Taicang, and I am afraid that he will not be able to return to his hometown to work. Who knew that Jiajing was spinning faster than his brain.

"Well, Wang Chen is a good candidate, he, he is a Jinshi of Jiajing for twenty years, right?" The emperor said to himself: "The qualifications and prestige are a little worse, for the time being, let him supervise the military affairs of Fujian and Zhejiang plus Susong, and when there is a suitable candidate, it will not be too late to change." ”

Jiajing made the final decision, what the cabinet didn't say, Admiral Wang was freshly released.

Before Wang Chen arrived from Shandong, the news reached Taicang, and Wang Ergongzi found Tang Yi for the first time, and his excitement was beyond words.

A few days ago, Tang Yi went to the Wang family to borrow grain, but the Wang family only paid 500 stones, Wang Ergongzi felt sorry for his friend, but unfortunately he was not the one who was in charge of the family, and his father was transferred to the southeast, and his waist immediately hardened.

patted his chest and swore and said: "Cousin, this time it's good, my father is the commander of the military affairs of the two provinces and two governments, and with the support of his old man, you can let it go!" What's going on with my dad! ”

Contrary to the Tang family, Wang Ergongzi not only did not solve problems for his father, but also pushed troubles on his body, compared to Tang's classmates, he was really unfilial, but Tang Yi was very pleased with this "unfilial son".

It can be seen that Wang Chen is just a transitional figure, and with the fact that he was born in the Taicang Wang family, Jiajing will not hand over the southeast to him for a long time if he is crazy. But as long as Wang Chen can stay in the southeast for one more day, Tang Yi will have no scruples.

"Tiancheng, you go and send an invitation to the gentry and businessmen in Taicang, and three days later, discuss important matters in the Changwen paper shop." After Tang Yi finished giving the order, he became more and more happy in his heart, and he actually sent Wang Chen, it was like God was helping him.

Only, is it really that easy......
