In February of the first year of Xining, the three departments of the regulations were set up, and in April they sent people to check the national farmland water conservancy and servitude, and in July they promulgated the first new law, that is, the law of equal loss in history, and in September they promulgated the Qingmiao Law, and in November they promulgated the farmland and water conservancy treaty.

"Nonsense! Where is this change, it is simply a declaration of war on everyone, according to their methods, in the end, they have to provoke the anger of the heavens and people! Su Shi slapped his palm on the willow tree by the river, and said with a hateful expression on his face, it was still by the Bianhe River near Zhao Yan's house, and Zhao Yan was still fishing leisurely, but there were more people around him who accompanied him to fish, not only Xu Yuan and Cao Song, but also Su Shi and Shen Kuo, but Su Shi and Shen Kuo had just come today, and they were very excited, and they couldn't calm down and fish.

"But isn't it, although the original intention of the equalization method and the Qingmiao law is good, but they don't want to think about whether they can implement it, among which the equalization method touches the interests of those big businessmen, but almost all of these big businessmen have one or more backers standing behind them, and it is almost difficult to climb to the sky if they want to implement it, and the Qingmiao Law is even more naïve, if those local officials are allowed to implement it, in the end they don't know what they will change, I'm afraid that this law for the benefit of the people will eventually become a law that harms the people!" Shen Kuo also beat his chest at this time.

Shen Kuo has been an official in the local area for many years, so he naturally knows what virtues the local officials are, in fact, his judgment is also very accurate, in the original history, after the promulgation of the equalization law, it was only implemented in a small area, and it did not achieve the expected effect at all, as for the Qingmiao Law, it became a tool for the government to forcibly borrow money from the people, which made the people everywhere miserable, which also became one of the main reasons for the failure of the law change later.

"Third brother. Seeing that the Great Song Dynasty is about to be messed up by the law change, aren't you in a hurry? At this time, Cao Song, who was holding a fishing rod, turned his head and asked Zhao Yan.

Some time ago, Cao Song listened to Zhao Yan's construction and directly resigned as the president of the bank, speaking of which the bank was originally a private commercial institution, behind which there were three shareholders, Zhao Ji, Zhao Yan and the Cao family, and Cao Song's resignation also needed the consent of the three shareholders. Originally, Zhao Yan didn't agree to let Cao Song go at first, but Zhao Yan and the Cao family agreed, so Zhao Yan also deliberately found Zhao Yan, hoping that he could help him keep Cao Song, but Zhao Yan told Zhao Yan that if he really insisted on changing the law, then he must put the bank in the hands of the law changer, so as to better exert the power of the bank.

But at the same time, Zhao Yan also told sù Zhao Xuan that if the bank used it properly. It can have a great effect on their changes, but if they are not used properly, or even the bank itself is in chaos, then not only will it not be useful for the change, but it may also have consequences that endanger the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, so Zhao Yan asked him to think about whether he wants to choose to take over the bank?

For Zhao Yan's words, Zhao Yan also attaches great importance to it. However, at this time, he was full of changes, so he still chose to take over the bank in the end. agreed to Cao Song's resignation request, so now Cao Song is completely idle, every day like Xu Yuan, he comes to Zhao Yan's mansion with his wife in the morning, and then the three big men sit by the river to fish, and they don't go back until the sun is waning. Sometimes even three meals a day are eaten here by Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan wants them to pay for their own food.

"What's there to worry about, I'm not an official of the imperial court, and if the change really causes trouble, aren't there still so many ministers in the court. Surely they will not sit idly by. Zhao Yan still replied very leisurely, now that the new law has just been implemented, not only has the effect not appeared, but even some problems have not appeared, and now it is only in speculation, so Zhao Yan is not in a hurry.

"However, there are not a few people of insight in the court, and many people have foreseen the drawbacks of these new laws, especially the equalization law and the Qingmiao law are too involved, it is simply a declaration of war on the big landlords, big businessmen and big nobles, and such drastic means were used at the beginning of the law change, I am very worried about whether the new law can be implemented!" Shen Kuo spoke again at this time, he was not very optimistic about the change from the beginning like Zhao Yan, and now after seeing the methods of the change faction, he was even more convinced that this change might not succeed at all, and now he was most worried that the change would mess up the Great Song because of the change.

"Now it's about to be carried out, and the ministers in the court are now secretly preparing to impeach Wang Xianggong, and I heard that there are not a few officials involved this time, I'm afraid it's another big court fight!." At this time, Su Shi suddenly said, among the people present, he is the only official court official, and he usually needs to go to the court often, so he is also familiar with the affairs of the court.

"Oh, I didn't expect the officials of the DPRK to react quite quickly this time, it seems that there are really a lot of people of insight in the DPRK!" Cao Song couldn't help but speak when he heard this.

However, as soon as Cao Song's words came out, he saw Shen Kuo next to him and said with a smile: "Cao Yanei is wrong, although I am not in the court, but I can also guess that most of the officials who jumped out to oppose this time are because the Equal Loss Law and the Qingmiao Law have damaged the interests behind them, so they will jump out so eagerly, and I don't think there will be many people who oppose this time, they are just taking this opportunity to test His Majesty's attitude, if His Majesty's attitude is resolute, I am afraid they will stop for a while, and wait until there are more people who oppose it in the future, They'll jump out again! ”

Shen Kuo is not only erudite, but also very clear about the doorways of officialdom, don't look at him now that he has left the officialdom and is only in charge of the Gewu Academy, but he still sees the officialdom very thoroughly.

"Hehe, Brother Cun thinks that officialdom has three flavors, and it's a pity not to be an official with your talent." Su Shi smiled when he heard Shen Kuo's words, but his words were clearly a compliment to Shen Kuo, but when he listened carefully, he was a little sarcastic.

"Brother Zizhan has an upright personality, and in my opinion, he is really not very suitable for being an official, so if I am Brother Zizhan, it is right to resign and return to my hometown as soon as possible, and find a few students to teach poetry!" Shen Kuo also retorted mercilessly when he heard this, in fact, he really hoped that Su Shi could come to Gewu Academy to teach, although Su Shi did not know physical chemistry, but with his attainments in poetry, it was unparalleled, and then Gewu Academy could add a new discipline.

"Hehe, Su's affairs don't bother with the middle brother!" Su Shi sneered at this time and said, he actually has a good impression of Gewu Academy, and often thinks that if he is no longer an official, he can go to the academy to teach and teach, but when he thinks that if he enters Gewu Academy, he will have to work under Shen Kuo, which reminds him of the unpleasant time when he quarreled with Shen Kuo in the Ordnance Prison before, which made him immediately dispel this idea.

"Haha~, Brother Cun and Brother Zizhan are still the same, but when it comes to changing the law, the Ordnance Supervisor and the Academy shouldn't have been affected, right?" Zhao Yan was afraid that Su Shi and Shen Kuo would quarrel again, so he hurriedly interrupted them.

Hearing Zhao Yan ask about the impact on him, Su Shi and Shen Kuo stopped arguing, and Shen Kuo took the lead in speaking: "The academy is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and it has not been affected for the time being, but the discussion among the students about the law change is very intense, and most of the students are more impulsive and confused by the bright prospects of the change, so they are also very supportive of the change, and some students are more inhibited by the new law because of the interests of the family, and only a few students are very sober and think that the implementation of the new law is too eager." , I am afraid that it will cause a big mess, and it is precisely because of the difference of opinion that some heated discussions often break out among students, but the college generally does not bother much about this, as long as there is no conflict. ”

Zhao Yan also nodded when he heard this, and then thought for a moment and said: "Although the academy was founded by me, it is also the result of the joint efforts of the teachers and students of the academy, I am worried that the change of the law will affect the academy in the future, so if someone from the imperial court wants to interfere in the management of the academy in the future, Brother Cun must strictly refuse, and at the same time, he must send someone to inform me, and I must not let the academy have any mistakes!" ”

When Zhao Yan said at the end, his face was also very solemn, Wang Anshi's changes not only involved economic politics, but also involved academic and ideological fields, such as Wang Anshi's "Jinggong New School", and forcibly promoted the world's official professors Xinxue, although Gewu College does not belong to official learning, but with the bank's experience, plus the influence of Gewu College is not inferior to Guozijian and Taixue, so he is worried that Wang Anshi will also meddle in Gewu Academy, which Zhao Yan will never allow.

"Don't worry! Shen knows the severity! Shen Kuo also said solemnly at this time, he knows the importance of the academy better than anyone else, although the academy is not too dazzling now, and it is even inferior to the military academy in the eyes of others, but he believes that as long as the academy is really developed, it will affect the national fortunes of the Great Song Dynasty in the next tens of hundreds of years, or even thousands of years.

Zhao Yan also nodded when he heard Shen Kuo's assurance, and then looked at Su Shi again, only to see Su Shi is smile and said: "You can rest assured that no matter how the new law is implemented, it has little to do with the weapons supervisor, and the weapons supervisor is related to the supply of weapons to hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops, and it is also related to the military strength of the entire Great Song Dynasty, so I believe that even if it is the prince of the king, he will not dare to take the weapons supervisor lightly!" ”

Zhao Yan didn't agree with Su Shi's words, because he knew what kind of person Wang Anshi was, as long as he recognized something, he would definitely do it with all his might, as for the possible consequences of this matter, he didn't think about it, but he firmly believed that with Zhao Yan's support, coupled with his ability and determination, he would definitely be able to overcome all kinds of difficulties to achieve his goals, but in Zhao Yan's opinion, this kind of thinking was very terrible!
