165 [Joy on Joy]
On the third day of Zhao Han's stationing in Linjiang Mansion, Li Zheng came over with an old official: "General Town, I caught someone who wanted to burn down the county yahu's house!" ”
"The chief town spares his life, the chief town spares his life!"
The old official knelt on the ground and cried, a handful of snot and tears, and even the smell of urine came from his crotch.
Zhao Han said with a disgusted face: "With your guts, you dare to burn down the county government?" What do you want to burn? ”
Li Zheng said angrily: "Zongzhen, just after two boards, this person confessed, he wanted to burn the Tianfu booklet in Qingjiang County." ”
Zhao Han instantly understood: "Which family are you?" How much did it fly? ”
The old official did not dare to answer, but only knelt on the ground and trembled.
Zhao Han sneered: "Find out whose family it is, after the public trial, all the clan elders will be killed." Children are sent to hospices, men are assigned to dig iron mines, and young women are married to unmarried soldiers! ”
The old official suddenly collapsed and fainted in fright.
The means of escaping taxes by the big landlords is not the most disgusting, but it is really disgusting to fly!
The so-called sprinkling means that the title deed is still in the hands of the landlord, and the landlord still recruits tenants to cultivate. However, the tax booklet of the government had the names of other peasants written on them. Many small landlords and yeoman farmers, and perhaps even tenants, have inexplicably gained countless amounts of land, and inexplicably have to pay countless land endowments, and they do not know who is harming them.
In modern times, the principal Jiang was sprinkled by the big landlord, and he came to the door to beat people, but he was arrested and lost money. Because of this incident, he made up his mind to study in Japan, wanting to get ahead and not be bullied.
The old official in front of him just wanted to burn the official documents, so that his family would not be traced down when the land was divided.
By the way, the elimination of the phenomenon of flying sprinkles is also one of the reasons why small landlords and yeoman farmers are willing to be loyal to Zhao Han.
In particular, the small landlord class may have less land in their hands after the division of the land. However, the amount of land that needs to be paid is also declining rapidly, because in the past, I didn't know who was flying into the pit.
Officials, missionary groups, and peasant associations are coming one after another, and Linjiang Mansion is temporarily under the control of Zhao Hanjun.
After dealing with this old official, Zhao Han continued to personally patrol the city, and he had to go out to inspect a few streets every day.
Today, he was walking around the west of the city, and as he walked, Zhao Han frowned: "Why are there so many temples here?" Immediately check the whole city, how many temples there are! ”
Half a day later, Zhao Han got the details, there are a total of eleven temples in the city.
This is simply outrageous, although the city of Linjiang Mansion is high and deep, but the area is not very large, there are eleven temples in the city, and there are some outside the city!
It can only be said that the business of Linjiang Mansion is too prosperous, and countless businessmen are full of food, or they want to find comfort when they do bad things, and they have spent money to feed countless monks. Many of these temples in the city do not have temple fields, and they all rely on the incense of believers to live.
Continue to check the outside of the city, inside and outside the city combined, there are a total of eighteen temples and Taoist temples!
Zhao Han carefully understood the information of these temples and immediately ordered: "There are no monks who have a degree, and all of them are ordered to return to the world." Inside and outside the city, only one temple and one view have to be kept. The temple retains the Guanghan Temple, the Taoist Temple retains the City God Temple, and the monks and Taoists who have a degree of cultivation are concentrated in these two temples to practice. The rest of the temples, don't demolish them, just demolish the statues of gods and Buddhas, vacate the house as a miscellaneous courtyard, and distribute it to the city's homeless people to live in! ”
An order was given, and suddenly the chickens flew and the dogs jumped.
Thousands of illegal monks and Taoist priests were found out and ordered to return to the laity, and there were only more than 30 legal monks.
The goods in these temples were all copied by Zhao Han, adding up to more than 8,000 taels of silver!
"Boss, there's a mage outside asking to see you."
"Arrest him directly and thoroughly investigate his crimes. Even if he didn't break the law himself, if his monks let out usury or something, he would be directly arrested and mined in the iron mine! ”
Outside the government, the highly respected Master Suzhen originally wanted to honor his reputation and persuade Zhao Hanli to worship the gods and Buddhas with an incorruptible tongue, and not to do this kind of dirty thing of slandering the Buddha and destroying the gods.
And then......
"Let go of me, let go of me, what kind of system!" Master Su Zhen panicked and was dragged to his cell by a group of big-headed soldiers.
After a few more days, the results of the interrogation were placed in front of Zhao Han.
Master Su Zhen really has both virtue and virtue, not only the Dharma is profound, but also donated money to build bridges and pave roads, and he is very famous in the entire Linjiang Mansion.
However, as the abbot, his main income was usury and collecting land rent, followed by the incense money donated by believers. This temple has thousands of acres of land on the outskirts of the city, and I don't know how to accumulate it!
"There's no need to send it to mining, let him think about it in front of the Buddha," Zhao Han said, "Since he is a great and virtuous monk, he must have a profound Dharma, and it is no problem not to eat for ten days and half a month." If he can survive ten days without eating, let him be the abbot of Guanghan Temple. ”
This Su Zhen mage still didn't give up, and shouted to see Zhao Han, and repeatedly applied for it and finally got his wish.
Zhao Han sneered while working: "What else do you have to say?" ”
Master Su Zhen tidied up the clothes that were crooked by the soldiers, suddenly saluted, and said solemnly: "Amitabha, the poor monk entered the meditation yesterday, and got the Bodhisattva's promise, and King Zhao is the reincarnation of the dragon Arhat......
"Get out!"
Zhao Han was furious: "This monk is talking to confuse the public, don't be hungry, just drag it out and behead the public!" ”
"Heavenly King, Heavenly King......"
Master Su Zhen's mind was a little confused, and he shouted on the way out of the road: "The king of heaven is really the reincarnation of an arhat, the little monk can testify, the king of heaven listened to the little monk and ......"
There are many believers in Buddhism in the city, but in the face of Zhao Han's atrocities, no one dares to stand up and help speak.
After beheading the monk, the officials finally came.
Three counties became eight counties, and the administrative system had to be adjusted.
Zuo Xiaoliang was promoted to the prefect of Ji'an, with jurisdiction over the four counties of Luling, Jishui, Xiajiang and Anfu.
Ouyang Steam was promoted to the prefect of Linjiang and governed the four counties of Qingjiang, Xingan, Xinyu and Fenyi.
This administrative division is a little different from Daming, purely because Zhao Han's territory is uneven, and it can be adjusted according to the actual situation in the future.
Liu Ziren, who came from Lead Mountain, was promoted to Xiajiang County, and Fei Yuanjian was promoted to Xinganzhi County. Both of them are old friends of Zhao Han, and although they have been promoted quickly all the way, they have also sat up from the scribes. Moreover, the two counties under their rule are both poor counties, and they are not too outrageous.
When attacking Jishui County, the first two scholars to take refuge, Yang Zhong, who scolded Zhao Han, became the new Yuzhi County, and Guo Shunyu, who took the initiative to donate land, became a transfer envoy.
Guo Shunyu not only took the initiative to donate the land, but also donated two merchant ships.
Now that the territory is large, many materials need to be transported, and Guo Shunyu's transshipment makes the oil and water abundant, and it depends on whether he can hold it.
The rapid promotion of Yang Zhong and Guo Shunyu made the gentry quite jealous, this is not the mayor of the town, but the real official in their eyes. At the beginning, they were all thieves together, and if I did things seriously, I could have been promoted, oh I really regretted it!
"Meet the Town!"
Ouyang Steam took a group of officials to visit, and next to him was Yuan Yunlong, the magistrate of Qingjiang County, who was the one who married his niece to Fei Ruhe.
When I go back this time, Fei Ruhe is also going to get married.
Zhao Han asked, "How are the three counties of Ji'an?" ”
Ouyang Steam replied: "I don't know about the other two counties, but in Jishui County, during the confrontation between the main town and the officers and soldiers, some gentry were ready to move, and they were still secretly conspiring. Once the main town is defeated, these people are likely to rebel immediately! However, when the news of the defeat of the officers and soldiers came back, the gentry pledged their allegiance and sent all the scholars out of their families, hoping to find some errands in the newly occupied land. ”
"Haha, they look at the direction of the wind." Zhao Han laughed angrily.
Ouyang Steam said: "What Mr. Pang means is that now he occupies the land of eight counties, and two more government offices and transfer bureaus have been added, which requires a large number of scribes to fill in. Those scholars from the gentry family can be used as the choice of scribes, and if they do a good job, they will be slowly promoted, and if they do not do well, they will be removed immediately. ”
"This is okay," Zhao Han said, "Linjiang Mansion is very important, I will leave two thousand regular soldiers here to garrison, and some of the sailors will also remain." Part of the taxes paid by Linjiang Mansion is used as military expenses, and it does not have to be transferred to the General Military Mansion, but only transferred to the General Military Office. ”
The formalities and procedures must still be complete, and the local finance cannot be allowed to raise troops. But money and food do not need to be transported around, and the relevant documents can be walked through.
After chatting for a while, Zhao Han said to Yuan Yunlong again: "Yuan Zhixian, the wisdom of Mu Jun for a long time, I finally saw it with my own eyes today." ”
"I only did my part, and it all depended on the cultivation of the town." Yuan Yunlong is very clear about this, although he does things seriously, his political achievements and qualifications are not as good as many old people. can be quickly promoted to Qingjiang Zhixian County, relying on the name of the person, Zhao Han is setting him as a role model.
Zhao Han said with a smile: "It's not easy to only do what you do and do what you do well." Bao Zheng in the Song Dynasty was exiled for thousands of years, so he only did what he did. Bao Zheng is the local magistrate, so he will be an honest parent official. Bao Zheng is a transfer official, so he will honestly transfer money and grain to pay taxes. As a supervision official, Bao Zheng is iron-faced and selfless, not afraid of offending the powerful. The most rare thing about Bao Zheng is that he can do his part well and never interfere in other affairs! ”
Yuan Yunlong hurriedly said: "Keep in mind the teachings below. ”
Bao Qingtian in the Song Dynasty really only did what he did and did what he had to do. It is absolutely impossible for the county, as a magistrate, to advise the emperor to carry out reforms, because that is not his responsibility.
Therefore, although Bao Zheng has offended countless powerful people, that is what he did when he was a supervisor, that is his duty, and no one can find any fault. Before becoming a supervisor, Bao Zheng was not guilty of any powerful person.
When Zhao Han said this, he was also warning Yuan Yunlong not to do anything extraneous to himself. Because Yuan Yunlong's niece is about to marry Fei Ruhe!
That night, Ouyang Steam sent a letter: "Zongzhen, this is sent by Mrs., let me hand it over by myself." ”
Zhao Han opened the letter and immediately smiled.
Fei Rulan was pregnant, and not long after Zhao Han set out on the expedition, the doctor had already confirmed the happy pulse. Afraid of affecting Zhao Han's war, Fei Rulan kept it a secret, and even Pang Chunlai, Li Banghua and others didn't know.
I'm going to be a dad?
Zhao Han feels so amazing, he didn't get married before he crossed over, and in his two lives combined, it was the first time he wanted to be a father.
