This Great Doctor Li did drink too much today, and he actually exposed the weakness in his heart, and in the sigh, two tears appeared in his eyes. Indeed, reading should be carried out, as the right path of this era, has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. No matter how good Langzhong is, in the eyes of the world, he is far inferior to a dim and incompetent county magistrate. In history, Li Shizhen's son did not give up the path of studying for the imperial examination, and he was also influenced by the world.

Seeing this, the third prince of Hu patted his chest: "Mr. Li, this imperial examination article is really not interesting, and the left and right are just for the sake of official career." If you want to be an official, it's not easy! Let's go back and give you some silver taels, donate a prisoner for you in Nanjing Guozi Prison, and let my father arrange arrangements for you after you are released from prison, so that you can be an official! Or, if Brother Yan says something in front of Yuanfu and asks the old man to arrange a future for you, it won't take much effort! ”

Yan Hong saw that Hu Baiqi was so incomprehensible, he glared at him, but he didn't say a word, stood up, and walked in front of Li Shizhen. Li Shizhen was a little drunk and looked at this man in gorgeous clothes in surprise. saw Yan Hong kneeling down on his knees, holding his hands down, respectfully, and giving Li Shizhen a big gift.

Li Shizhen was so frightened that her soul flew away, the other party was an official, and she was just a talent now! Quickly got up from the chair and knelt down: "Sir, why is this so?" ”

Yan Hong got up and said with a straight face: "Mr. Li, everyone in the world thinks that practicing medicine is not as good as studying, but in the next view, a doctor saves life and death, and is a reborn parent, which has immeasurable merit, far better than studying and becoming an official." He upheld the medical Tao and revised the medicine book, which was for the benefit of millions of living beings in the present and future generations. The hardships and hardships involved in this are naturally experienced by Mr. However, Yan only had one sentence: Mr.'s deed, it will inevitably shine for a thousand years, so that the Li family will be famous for a hundred years! ”

Li Shizhen originally went against his father's wishes for the sake of medicine, although he was as ambitious as iron, after all, he would inevitably feel guilty. The so-called good doctor is not a good look, more often it can only be regarded as a kind of self-comfort, and now he has left the position of the Tai Hospital and turned to be a country doctor who travels all over the world, and he is under the pressure of the boss. But listening to this seemingly handsome son speak like this, he not only understands his hard work, but also praises him. This touched my heart, and the famous doctor Li had already burst into tears. The will to fight for the medical Tao all his life in his heart seems to have found the biggest bosom friend in his life, and he choked up in his mouth, but he couldn't speak.

Yan Hong helped him sit down, and asked Yan Feng to say, "Take the five hundred and two taels of votes and collect them for Mr. Li." Mr. Li, you have traveled all over Kyushu and compiled the great cause of medicine books, but you can't endure hardships and can't follow you. I gave a few dollars to help Mr. Entangled along the way. With this money, the wife of the family is better, and the food and clothing on the road are more comfortable. If you don't have enough money, you can come to Beijing Yanfu to find me. ”

Li Shizhen was moved to tears by Yan Hong, but the silver ticket was accepted unceremoniously, and thanked Yan Hong and said: "He wrote the "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the future, but he wanted to write the name of Chief Yan on it. ”

Yan Hong waved his hand and said, "No need." Write my name, in case I break the law, I am afraid that this book will be implicated. Mr. Li, I am also happy that you have finished writing this compendium of Materia Medica. The false name on this cover is not enough to worry about. ”

After the guests and hosts finished eating and drinking, Yan Hong asked Jinyiwei to go to the hotel in the city, bring Li Shizhen's package, and let Mr. Li live in the post station. That Wang Cuiqiao originally wanted Yan Hong to rush to Shanyin first, so as not to have problems with Xu Hai, but Yan Hong said that it was okay, and only sent four Jinyi guards, together with two generals of Hu Gongzi, dressed in civilian clothes, to rush to Shanyin and lurk secretly. Inform that if there is any abnormality, report it urgently.

At this time, it was around the end of the day, Yan Hong was full of wine and meat, and thought that it was idle to be idle, so it was better to go to Chun'an County to take a look, and also see how this Qing official Hai Rui was under the rule. The Hu Gongzi was also curious, so the two changed into civilian clothes and rode into the city. This trip was a private visit to Weifu, so the team didn't take it with him, only Liang Rufei followed closely.

Entering the county seat, Yan Hong found that the situation in front of him was basically consistent with what he saw at the post station yesterday. The food and clothing of the common people are relatively poor, far below the general level in the Jiangnan area. However, there is also a bit of positivity, these people seem to have a relatively sunny face, just a poor and happy face.

Yan Hong was curious, seeing a small shop open, the courtyard was cold, and a half-old man in his fifties sat on the threshold to rest, so he dismounted and said, "My husband is invited." ”

Although Yan Hong was wearing ordinary civilian clothes, his temperament could not be concealed. The old man saw that it was a young man, so he quickly got up and saluted: "Son, please, but what do you want to buy?" ”

Yan Hong relied on his experience in sales before the crossing, and if he wanted to get closer, he would do a little business with him. So he nodded and went into the shop. There are few daily necessities sold in this shop, and the cabinets are covered with a layer of dust, and I don't know how long the depression has been. He casually bought two packs of needlework and thread, put them in his pocket, and then asked: "Uncle, I am a foreigner, but I don't know why this Chun'an County looks so depressed?" Could it be that the county magistrate is a corrupt official? ”

The old man hurriedly shook his hand again and again: "What is this called, our old man Hai is a big Qing official, a big Qing official who clangs!" Since he came to this county, he has exempted all the usual practices, what fire consumes silver, what drenching tips, and the three coins and six fees of these servants, all of them have been abolished. How can such a clean official accuse him of being greedy! ”

Yan Hong said "oh", and the old man continued: "This Haixian order not only abolished the usual practice, but also lived a very hard life, growing vegetables in the backyard. Sometimes, the people in our county see that he is doing pitifully and want to send some pork and vegetables, but Haida people will not accept them, saying that he is an official, that is, he wants to be the parents of the people, and his life has his own court, how can he be contaminated with the people's fat and people's ointment? If you receive it once, you will not be able to keep the right way. Therefore, although it is well-intentioned, it is not accepted. So the Zhang butcher at the south gate could only take advantage of the time he bought meat every month to cut him an extra half or two or three yuan. It's too much, and if the sea lord finds out, he will return it. ”

Yan Hong couldn't help but admire Hai Rui when he heard that he was so honest. However, such a clean official, why has Chun'an's people's livelihood not improved? He asked again: "Uncle, since Lord Hai is such a good official, why do I see that in Chun'an County, the market is depressed, and many people are yellow and thin, but what is the reason?" ”

The old man looked around vigilantly, sighed, and said, "Hey, son, you are careful." Our Chun'an County really can't catch up with the neighboring counties in terms of food and clothing. Childe, do you know that Lu Dao, the neighboring county seat, why is it better than our county? ”

Yan Hong said: "Thinking about it, the southeast land, with developed commerce and trade, is nothing more than doing business, buying cheaply and selling expensively, and making some profits." ”

The old man nodded and said, "Zhao, the son is really knowledgeable." The bad is bad in doing business. ”

Yan Hong said: "I would like to hear about it." ”

The old man said: "Speaking of the southeast, businessmen gather. I am located on the main road, and the road was originally unblocked. Among them, the buying and selling of officials is indispensable. However, after Lord Hai came, he said that according to the law of Taizu, officials were not allowed to engage in business, so he personally took the officials and strictly inspected them. All the business of the officials' families shall be confiscated. He came for less than half a month, and the princes of several neighboring counties all suffered losses, and later even the business of the prefect of Benzhou, the prefect of Shaoxing, the prefect of Shaoxing, and the business of the old man Li Da was also investigated, and the two prefects sent people to intercede, and the people of Hai ignored it. From now on, all caravans that are related to the old men will not go here. ”

Yan Hongxin said, this is understandable. Hai Rui's tendonous brain has cut off the county's financial route. He asked again: "Even if the officials and businessmen are cut off, the people can go to the neighboring counties to do business, this Haida can't help it, right?" ”

The old man shook his head and said, "Of course I can't help it." Haida people still uphold the legacy of Taizu, Shinong industry and commerce, each grade. And the merchants were not allowed to wear silk. Although this makes the business a little depressing, it is not a big problem. Hai-sama has more of his benefits. The methods of the neighboring county government to rub oil and peel the skin were all banned by the Haida people, and only 30 taxes were charged, which was really a penny, a lot. However, Haida only manages Chun'an County, not neighboring counties. He offended the surrounding princes and prefects, and the people of Chun'an County went out to do business, can they still have a good business? That's really going through the state and county, and the knife is bloody, so that your bones are gone. Even if it is a caravan from outside, they don't dare to cross the border of Chun'an County easily, otherwise it will be easy to enter Chun'an, and no matter which county they go to, they will be stabbed in the head. In this way, the people of Chun'an County can basically only point to that bit of land, or live by small transactions in the county, so that they can still prosper? ”

Yan Hong nodded again and again. With Hai Rui's virtue, offending the entire Jiangnan officialdom, it is helpless for the people of Chun'an County to be affected. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "In this way, this Hai Daren has done bad things with good intentions, and he is also old-fashioned. ”

The old man said: "Even so, when Lord Hai is in office, the officials do not bully the people, and the strong do not bully the good people. As long as you pay enough taxes, no one will extort money and trouble you. Therefore, although the people of Chun'an live poorly, they are free from the pain of fear and are poor. I heard that in the neighboring county, although everyone eats and dresses better, I don't know when, the corrupt officials and corrupt officials fabricated a name, and robbed you with the house, or were framed by others, and flew into trouble. If this is the case, it is better to eat a stable meal under the rule of Master Hai. ”

Yan Hongxin said, this may be the truth that does not suffer from widowhood but unevenness. How to evaluate Hai Jui's behavior is really complicated. He thanked his husband and walked out of the store. Seeing Liang Rufei dismounting and standing in front of the door, Hu Baiqi was already waiting impatiently. Seeing Yan Hong come out, Hu Baiqi said: "Brother Yan Shi, what are you talking to the old man when you go in, and you only came out in the middle of this day?" ”

Yan Hong smiled: "I talked about the livelihood of the county." Brother Hu, let's go to the county yamen and visit this Haixian order. ”

Hu Baiqi stuck out his tongue: "Brother Shi, you have to go and ask for a poop." Brother, I still want to keep my ass. What is so good about such a stinky and hard poor sour official? ”

Yan Hong smiled and said nothing, glanced at Liang Rufei, and the two of them slapped their horses and went to the county yamen. Hu Baiqi followed from afar. About a stone's throw away in front of the yamen, Yan Hong dismounted and walked towards the gate
