The people inside the walls were still howling.

Killing pigs in general.

Zhang Anshi staggered, put his hands behind his back, and left.

Learning is a painful process.

Any interest is nonsense, maybe at the beginning, it starts with interest, but in fact...... Since the beginning of human beings to pass on knowledge, learning has been a painful thing.

It is simply unrealistic to expect these guys to happily go to school, and to embark on a learning journey just by virtue of their hobbies.

Zhang Anshi himself is from the second ancestor, don't you know what these guys are?

Qi Xia's changes are getting bigger and bigger.

After the market was reorganized, it began to become tidy, and the flow of people increased, and there were more and more businessmen who came to look for opportunities, young men from the three counties who wanted to turn over here, and many people who came to shop.

There are 17 streets here, crisscrossed by pavements of various colors.

It soon became clear that everything was available here, and everything that could be thought of, or even imagined, could be purchased here.

Because of this, this Qixia has become a place for the entire Nanzhili to catch up with the big gathering.

Even the people of Zhenjiang, if they have leisure, are willing to take a boat to come here, and there are even some travelers from Yangzhou.

The prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River is essentially driven by waterways, and the criss-crossing rivers minimize the transportation cost here.

In the past, there was still some trouble in sailing, sometimes there was uncertainty in waiting for the boat, and there were often situations where you were asked for by the sky, and there were even water thieves disguised as boatmen, who picked up people and sent them to Jiangxin and began to rip off customers.

This is the physical meaning of the slaughter, the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out, and the person dies and is thrown into the river.

Therefore, the ancients were always afraid of going far away.

Ke Qixia's boat line, after several expansions, has penetrated its tentacles into almost every wharf in the south of the Yangtze River, and in order to make sure that the ship departs on time, Zhang Anshi even requires that the boat must be cheap.

How cheap is it?

From the waterway of Zhenjiang to Qixia, there are hundreds of miles of waterway, but it only costs five copper coins, even if it comes from Suzhou, it is only fifteen copper plates.

It's just the price of a meal.

Of course, the shipping company will definitely lose money in doing this, but fortunately, the freight business of the shipping company is a daily gold bucket, relying on freight to subsidize passenger transportation, so as to achieve a break-even.

And this low ticket price, but also led to the consolidation of the flow of people in the south of the Yangtze River, when going out is no longer dangerous and pay for your own business, naturally, people are also willing to go out to buy and increase some knowledge.

Naturally, the biggest profit among them is not Nanjing City. Because people prefer to come to Qixia, there are libraries, there are market for department stores, there are a large number of schools, there are clean and tidy streets and alleys, and even ...... The patrols under the patrol rule here will also conscientiously guard the safety of one party, unlike the errand servants of Nanjing City, who always come forward to make things difficult when they see a guest.

There are still many opportunities here, and employees are being recruited everywhere, whether it is the countless foot forces that need to be recruited to go to the dozens of docks that connect to various places, as well as the clerks needed in the market, and the donors needed by various tooth shops, the workshop also has the greatest demand for manpower, even the warehouse managers of the continuous warehouses, and the drivers who drive the cars and press the goods.

Better jobs, such as doctors, teachers, or bookkeepers, are almost all recruited on a large scale, and people are willing to pay wages here, on the one hand, because the trade is good and profitable, and on the other hand, it is like a beast that eats manpower, and there is a shortage of manpower almost at all times.

Even local women are mostly attracted to the weaving workshops, and people flock to them.

After all, he knows how to deal with businessmen, while attracting investment, while choosing a good address, recruiting a large number of people to start leveling the land, planning the land, and formulating a preferential tax system that is acceptable to businessmen and acceptable to the government, and even with the full assistance of the county, roads and canals have also begun to be built.

Many businessmen have been invited to visit, everything is difficult at the beginning, Wuhu County, where Guang Kuang mat is located, finalized a large steelmaking workshop, the next thing, but relaxed, a lot of coal refining workshops, as well as mechanical workshops, have taken the initiative to settle down, is to see this big workshop, for the future supply of coal and tools to prepare.

Even the merchants quickly realized the advantages of this industrial park, which was also beneficial to coordinate production between various workshops in one garden, and it was also more convenient to be in the same place and deal with the government, as for some small concessions in the tax rate, it was a small problem.

The reason why there are many large steel workshops in Wuhu County, where Kuang Mat is located, is that it is close to the mine, and a steady stream of iron ore can be transported to the workshop nearby and then produced, which greatly reduces the cost of transportation.

Other workshops are willing to come, but they also fancy the steel here, and can make supporting for their own production at any time, and the steel required by the mechanical workshop can be pulled directly from the steel workshop.

As for the textile workshop, there can also be a lot of cooperation with the machinery workshop, the spinning machine can be supplied nearby, and at the same time the nearest person can be repaired.

As for the wharf here, there are roads, although they are still in planning, but Kuang Mat is resolute, everyone still believes that the government can cash in, and Kuang Mat is a person who does not have the frame of being an official, he is very easy-going, you tell him some business difficulties, he can empathize, but if you take something to tease him, he can also be detected.

The demand for manpower in this industrial park is already even greater.

In order to solve the problem of manpower, almost all prefectures are extremely welcoming to the people who have been displaced from other provinces.

Even Qixia has a special dental shop, in order to attract manpower, he is willing to provide people with travel expenses, and specially go to pick them up.

In this era, the peasants are the most miserable, digging in the field, and this land is not their own, the grain tax plus the land rent, there is not much food left for themselves, and they still depend on the sky to eat, and if the harvest is not good, they may go hungry.

The most important thing is that there is obviously enough manpower, but in order to increase the rent, the gentry will often divide the land into small plots and rent them out, and the more individual households, the stronger the dependence of each household on the gentry, and the land that can be rented is only ten acres or eight acres.

In this day and age, it is difficult to feed a family.

As a result, many people are willing to come to Taiping Mansion to do long-term or short-term work.

Some people may just come with the idea of working part-time, but they feel that although the work is hard here, they can teach themselves to eat and drink enough for three meals and a few dollars to spare, so they don't even want to go back to planting.

This situation is very common in the three counties of Taiping Province, as well as in neighboring counties.

The provinces of Nanzhili have faintly felt the pressure.

This pressure was unprecedented, and the gentry in the nearby provinces and counties had to desperately reduce the rent in an attempt to make up for the manpower that had been lost.

But even so, there is still an endless stream of people going to Taiping Mansion, not to mention that they are not far from each other, and many people have relatives in Taiping Mansion itself, so it is more convenient to settle down.

At first, many people also opened the road, but later, the prefectures and counties subconsciously began to tighten the road, so that some people simply evaded the inspection of the inspection department and quietly set off.

There are more and more such 'displaced people', not to mention the fact that the waterways here are crisscrossed, and it is not at all possible that some inspections can stop them, so that the situation in various prefectures and counties is gradually deteriorating.

However, the prefectures and counties still dare not find the dignitaries of the Taiping Mansion, this Taiping Mansion does not say that the duke, even if it is the same acquaintance below, the official position is higher than the ordinary prefect's grade, even if it is a county order, it is also the sixth grade of the Eight Classics, and there are backers and big trees behind it, so I don't want to look at you at all.

Even if there are some official documents, the reply is probably known.

And then, no more.

And the only one who has this energy to curb this trend is precisely Ning Guofu.

Although the pressure on Ning Guofu is not small, after all, it is close to Taiping Mansion, and Taiping Mansion is like a black hole, always inhaling manpower constantly.

But in Ningguo Mansion, no one is used to those officials in Taiping Mansion.

The situation has long been clear.

And the local gentry also came to complain.

On this day, someone escorted dozens of homeless people to come, Jian Yi personally sat in the hall, and then a mile long came in, saluted and said: "Jian Gong, today another 37 homeless people have been arrested, and these 37 people have no way to guide them, trying to leave the country." Jian Gong ...... According to the ancestral system of Emperor Taizu Gao, anyone who has people who come and go at will without a road is a wanderer...... Among them, there are a few homeless people who have not repented, and they were caught by patrols a few days ago, and now they are doing their old tricks again......"

Jian Yi listened, his jaw bowed, he frowned slightly, but he did not rush to deal with it, but summoned his friends, as well as local acquaintances, Zhaoma and other officials.

When everyone gathered, Jian Yi said: "Since the government of this mansion has governed the country, the displaced people have been repeatedly banned......"

Tongzhi Fan Yi said: "Jian Gong, these are local Diao people, they really deserve to be killed." ”

He continued angrily: "In order to let people stay in their hometown, the government has tried their best to appease and give a lot of measures, but they still keep prohibiting them. ”

Jian Yi frowned and said, "I did give a lot of money to settle ...... at the beginning."

Wu Huan, a friend of the curtain, saluted, and said: "Gong Jian, you can't let it go anymore, now the other mansions are full of complaints, I heard that ...... In some places, even Zhuang Ding has escaped three or four out of ten, but fortunately, Gong Jian is in Ning Guofu, but I am afraid that Ning Guofu will not be much better. ”

Jian Yi's expression was a little dignified, and he nodded. So, what do you think about this? ”

Wu Huan said: "In various wharves and checkpoints, strengthen manpower, strictly guard against death, especially waterways, we must keep an eye on it, the counties are not allowed to release road guides for the time being, and the people are not allowed to leave their hometowns. ”

Righteous jaw head.

Tongzhi Fan Yi said: "What's the use of guarding it strictly? This Taiping Mansion is too unreasonable, if it goes on like this, will there still be people willing to share farming? Now people's hearts are fluctuating, and the people have been deceived by the Taiping Mansion in order to chase small profits. The local sages and gentry could no longer bear it. If this continues, who will be willing to grow food? ”

"Gong, if there is no food, they will starve to death, and the people will not think about production, and something big will happen."

Jian Yi's face became more and more solemn.

He knew very well that this was not what Fan Yi meant alone, but he was afraid that countless people had already complained to Fan Yi.

Manpower fled, so if the land wanted to be cultivated, it was necessary to give the tenants more favorable conditions, and the price of land rent was not as good as a year.

In this way, for the gentry and village sages, the income from the land has been greatly reduced, the original acre of land, you can collect a stone of rice to do rent, now there may not be half a stone, if you refuse to give up profits, people will not rent your land.

Of course...... These are actually bearable, and if you earn a little less, you can still maintain it.

What really made the local village sages and gentry break the defense was ...... Because the income of the land is reduced, it causes the land to plummet.

Originally, everyone wanted to buy land, but no one was willing to sell it, but with the decline in the income of the gentry and village sages, many people began to realize that land may not have become a business for drought and flood protection, and even many yeoman farmers wanted to sell their land and go to Qixia.

As a result, the price of land has been falling for more than half a year, and there is a trend that cannot be contained.

In Ningguofu, the situation is better, but other prefectures and counties, especially those adjacent to Taiping Mansion, have seen land prices plummet by 70%.

This means that the wealth accumulated by these ancestors for generations has been wiped out overnight.

I'm sorry for my ancestors!

Ningguofu is also falling, it has fallen by two percent, it stands to reason that the situation is not serious, but with the experience of other state capitals, many people have panicked.

Every time people visit the local government, they almost talk about this incident, and when they talk about it, they all hate it.

Fan Yi said: "Gong Jian, you can't be connived at anymore, if you continue like this......"

Jian Yi frowned, but still didn't say a word.

The other friends also began to gossip: "It can't go on like this, now people's hearts are floating like this, if there is no thunder means, something big will happen." ”

"Gong Jian, I heard that the Duke of Nawei Guo also granted official positions to craftsmen and encouraged merchants. There were three Jinshi, and Wei Guogong asked them to engage in business, and then ...... He also gave them official positions, and let them deal exclusively with merchants. This...... This is to shake the foundation of the country, and if this Weiguo Gong continues like this, he will be counterattacked. ”

Jian Yi finally opened his eyes slightly, and said: "The old man doesn't care about the affairs of the Taiping Mansion, but the affairs of the Ning Guofu have to be taken care of." It's just that...... To appease the displaced people......"

Speaking of this, he looked at Tong Zhi: "How much grain can the house come up with?" ”

Fan Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The money and grain in the treasury ...... It's all over. ”

Jian Yi stood up, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and then said slowly: "Then find a way to raise it, please ask all the village sages and gentry to come up with some money and food, find a way to appease the displaced people, and then send people...... Gather the displaced people, know their righteousness, move them with affection, and know them with reason. ”

Fan Yi shook his head, and the wry smile on his face did not decrease but increased.

Jian Yi raised his eyebrows and said..." Why, what's the difficulty? ”

Fan Yi sighed and said: "The village sages and gentry are not unwilling to give money and food, but now they are also having a hard time, and they have suffered great losses, and now they have to take money and grain. ”

A trace of refinement flashed in Jian Yi's eyes.

Fan Yi shuddered, and immediately said: "But the lower official will do it immediately, no matter what, you have to find a way to ......"

Jian Yi immediately glanced at Wu Huan lightly: "Those arrested homeless people are still outside the yatang, right?" ”

Wu Huan nodded. Be. ”

Jian Yi's eyes widened slightly, with a cold light in his eyes, and said: "If you don't change it after repeated bans, you will be killed directly and your body will be exposed!" If these people are not dealt with, they will become a disaster. The rest...... Resettlement homecoming. ”

Wu Huan and Fan Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they both showed admiration: "The rewards and punishments of the public are clear, which is not only to set an example, but also to appease the people, which is really admirable." ”

Righteousness is the way." It is useless to say more about these words, the most important thing is to teach the people to keep to themselves, the teachings of the counties, teach them not to be idle, let them go around to calm the people, and let the talents of the counties also let them educate the people in their own villages. The good gentry and village sages in the local area should also do their best to treat the people well. In this way, the people may be at peace. ”

"Naturally, we must not tolerate and condone the stubborn, after all, the people are mostly duty-based, but there are always some black sheep who make trouble in them, these things ...... It's not for nothing. ”

Wu Huan hurriedly said: "Enfu Gaojian." ”

Then Fan Yi went to deal with the homeless people.

Wu Huan took advantage of the fact that there was no one around to serve tea to Jianyi, Wu Huan smiled and said, "Enfu...... Thunderbolt means, the bodhisattva's heart ......"

Jian Yi shook his head, his face was not a little relaxed, and he sighed and said. The old man was roasted on the fire. ”

Wu Huan was puzzled: "Why did Enfu say this? ”

Jian Yi smiled bitterly, and then said: "In the past, to govern one side, as long as the arch was governed, but now with this Taiping Mansion, it makes people's hearts fluctuate, how can the old man not know that those people want to go to the Taiping Mansion, but it is just for a livelihood?" There's no way to ......."

Wu Huan said: "It's very good for Enfu to deal with it like this. ”

Jian Yi shook his head and said, "This is good for you." ”

He stared at Wu Huan and wanted to say something.

Wu Huan also seemed to see that Jian Yi was a little dissatisfied with this, but said: "When the Duke of Zhou was here, he established the law of etiquette, so that the princes, ministers, scholars, and the common people could perform their duties and keep their own peace. ”

"Nowadays...... The Taiping Mansion looks lively, but in fact, the etiquette collapses, and the discipline is disordered, which makes our Ningguo Mansion uneasy......"

Jian Yi sighed. Stop talking, what's the use of talking about it? Find a way...... Repair the school house, repair the river embankment, now, spring is about to begin, and I don't know what kind of famine there will be. ”

But at the mention of this, Wu Huan suddenly put on a sad face and said, "Gong Jian...... The money and food in the house ......"

Jian Yi said coldly: "The old man dealt with the homeless people harshly, just to teach the village sages and gentry to know that the old man was planning for them, and at this time, he was reluctant to give money and food?" ”

Under Jian Yi's cold gaze, Wu Huan's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said. The student understood, and the student went to talk to them 55. ”

Next.

Seven or eight corpses hung in the government office.

The people who passed by, one by one, saw it, and they only felt shocked.

However, many people who came and went clapped their hands.

Such outcasts deserve this.

In the counties of Ningguofu, many people breathed a sigh of relief, so they desperately taught people to sound gongs and preach.

Seem...... Ning Guofu's crooked wind can be regarded as stopped.

Of course, since the government has set an example, then the counties below will naturally be polite.

At first, I was a little worried, but now, I have long been impatient, and if there are displaced people, after being caught, they will all be dealt with severely. Among them, the county order of Jing County directly taught people to bury 47 people alive, and issued a strict order, and then there are those who do not know the good and the bad, and there is no forgiveness.

The chiefs and chiefs of various localities were also encouraged, and in order to strictly guard against stubborn defense, they directly adopted joint sitting, and each village protected each other, and if there were neighbors who left and did not return, the neighbors should also be punished.

The atmosphere was calm for a while.

And after all kinds of measures, miraculous things happened.

After several months of falling land prices, the land prices in Ningguo Mansion have finally begun to pick up.

The price of ground rent has finally relieved many people and has begun to have room to rise.

One by one, they were sent to Zhu Di's imperial case.

After Zhu Di watched the recital, he had doubts: "Why have there been a lot of recitals about praising Ning Guofu recently?" Jian Qing's family is in Ningguo Mansion...... It doesn't seem like a big deal!"

As he spoke, Zhu Di looked at Yisha.

Yisha said truthfully: "I heard...... In all the prefectures and counties, only the Ningguo Mansion side, the people kept to themselves, saying what kind of credit was the education, the people felt the holy will, and what else did they say...... Agriculture-oriented, no agriculture is unstable, so ......"

Needless to say, Zhu Di understood, and he bowed his head and said: "It is easy for the Jian Qing family to govern a mansion, and it is naturally very different from ordinary prefects." ”

Zhu Di thought for a while, and then said: "Summoning Zhang Qing, I have something to ask him." ”

This Zhang Qing, Yishu Ha naturally knew who it was, and after listening to the will, he immediately went to invite Zhang Anshi.

This summons was a bit sudden, and Zhang Anshi could only leave what he was doing and rush over.

When he saw Zhu Di, he honestly saluted first: "I've seen Your Majesty." ”

"What about people?" Zhu Di was not polite to him, and puffed out his eyes to look at Zhang Anshi.

"What, who?" Zhang Anshi was confused and put on a bewildered look.

Zhu Di looked at him fixedly and said, "Xu Jingchang and them, where did they go?" ”

Zhang Anshi feels that he is too busy, and the disadvantage of being too busy is that he can always forget some unimportant people and things.

That's when he remembered...... It seems like...... There are a few of them.

Zhu Di continued: "Now their family members are looking for people everywhere, and someone has reached out to me to ask for someone. ”

Obviously, this is a bit of a weight.

Zhang Anshi showed a little weakness, after all, after he threw people to that place, he didn't care much anymore.

So he didn't have enough confidence to say it..." Ah, this ......."
