Everyone looked at Zhou Juren's corpse in shock.

Zhang Anshi's exclamation came out: "Oh my God, I can't see this the most, quickly carry the corpse away, carry it away." ”

It means that he almost bankrupted his family with so much grain he received for more than two taels of silver.

After a pause, Zhang Anshi continued: "Of course, this alone is not enough, if the strong men go out to do some short-term work when they are in the farm, or if they have more labor at home, they can let one person go out to work, which is also a way to improve the family situation." On the government's side, there is a lot of encouragement. ”

Zhu Di listened, looked very satisfied, and nodded again and again: "You have expected everything." ”

Zhang Anshi said sincerely: "It's not that I expected it, but I changed the tax system to ensure that the government has strength." If it is like in the past, there are only a few serious officials in a county, and the rest are ...... It's all miscellaneous servants, and the taxes received by the government every year are not enough to support themselves, and what they want to do depends on the eyes of the village sages and gentry. ”

Zhang Anshi's words are the truth.

In ancient times, the standards of a good official were basically linked to the so-called blue sky. But it's hard to hear of who revitalized the party and made the local people get a huge improvement.

Therefore, when the ancients wanted to praise someone as a good official, it was often that after the person arrived at the place, he immediately began to deal with the old cases accumulated over the years, and then how to get justice for the people.

Shengsheng turned the duties of the prefectural magistrate into a so-called judge.

But in fact, in fact, the ancient magistrates did have limited authority, and what they could do might really be the work of judges. Whoever comes, they have to be blinded.

Therefore, most of the time, the so-called county governance is essentially village and clan autonomy, so the so-called village sages and gentry are derived, who control local affairs, and the affairs of this place have not improved for thousands of years, and this is also because of this.

Zhang Anshi said: "In fact, in the final analysis, the reason why the Taiping Mansion can be so smooth is thanks to His Majesty's vigorous efforts to confiscate and purge the anti-thieves in the six counties. Only the implementation of the new deal can be smooth. If it weren't for that, the ministers would be ...... It's hard to do anything. ”

What's more, there is a large amount of debt to be repaid, and this debt is a large amount of borrowing, and the interest is not small.

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Di thought of Yao Guangxiao again.

If it weren't for Yao Guangxiao, I'm afraid that Zhu Di would never have made up his mind so painfully.

Thinking about it at this time, Zhu Di even felt a little afraid.

Could it be ...... Master Yao has already thought of today, what he wants is to completely clear these obstacles, and also for today?

Thinking like this, Zhu Di couldn't help but redden. Master Yao's actions are unpredictable!

If it were someone else, Zhu Di would definitely not doubt that a person would even arrange the things behind him clearly.

But if this person is Yao Guangxiao, then ...... The biggest possibility is ...... This is exactly the result that Master Yao wants to pursue, everything has been planned since he stepped into the original Ning Guo Mansion.

And what is happening now is more like the last game of chess that he laid out with his life.

In this chess game, Yao Guangxiao, as a chess player, is no longer there, but he has expected the result from the beginning.

Hey Dao Zhu Di was in a complicated mood, and sighed faintly, before he said with emotion: "Master Yao's plan is so big that people can imagine. “)”

But all of a sudden, how can so much grain be sold in the warehouse?

Zhang Anshi also seemed to understand what Zhu Di meant, in fact, Zhang Anshi was also doubting that the best conditions created by Yao Guangxiao for him directly turned the six counties into a blank sheet of paper without any resistance to the new deal, is it ...... Was it Yao Guangxiao's original plan, or was it just ...... In all fairness.

But if it is really in the planning and layout, then Yao Guangxiao's wisdom is really terrible.

Zhang Anshi subconsciously said: "Your Majesty is not the same"

Zhu Di glanced at Zhang Anshi deeply, and said, "I have known Master Yao for many years and have seen his methods. These...... It must be his handiwork. Hey, he dared to risk his life like this, do you know why? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Please also ask Your Majesty for advice." ”

Zhu Di seemed to be careless, but he was full of emotion, and said word by word: "This is because he believes in me, and once I make up my mind, I will never change my course easily." He also trusts you and believes that after his death, you Zhang Anshi dare to be the first in the world. This is the person who really seeks the country, seeks the country with his body, regardless of fame and fortune, he only wants the result. This result...... Don't teach him to be disappointed, do it well, if you dare to turn back, or half-heartedly, Master Yao has a spirit in heaven, even if I am willing to forgive you, I will not spare you. ”

Zhang Anshi was silent.

He thought that he was the most resolute New Deal, and who knew that there were even more resolute ones than him.

People even took out their lives to support him, is he better than others?

Well, now it's like there's a fire bolt in the back of his head, and this path can only go dark.

Even if it can be sold, can it really be sold for 800 yuan?

Zhang Anshi took a deep breath, admired Yao Guangxiao from the bottom of his heart, and said seriously: "The minister will never give up." ”

Zhu Di's face softened, but he didn't continue to say this, but he changed his head and said: "I came to this Qixia today, and I feel that this Qixia seems to be much more lively. ”

"Of course." As soon as Zhang Anshi said this, his eyebrows immediately fluttered, and he said happily: "Your Majesty, do you know why?" ”

Zhu Di said: "Don't come to sell Guanzi." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, guess more, you can exercise your brain and prevent Alzheimer's ...... No, Your Majesty is a sage, omniscient, and when you think about it, you can figure it out. ”

Zhu Di's face fell, turned his head, glanced at Yang Rong and the others, and said, "I'm too lazy to guess, Qing and the others are all my Ming heroes, and come to guess, I guess right, I have a reward." ”

Hu Guang:

Natsuhara Yoshi: Teeth.

Jin Zhong:

Even Yang Rong is a monk who can't figure it out, this is completely a field they haven't set foot in at all, how can they guess?

Then there must have been a lot of people who had to sell grain, and countless grains were sold like a downpour. But the food he has on hand ...... When will I be able to sell my head?

As for the loan, it is the most terrible, this is the guarantee and mortgage made by using one's own land!

In other words, if you can't find a way to repay, you will have the land repossessed.

This is an ancestral property!

Keep borrowing?

This is obviously impossible, and relatives and friends are afraid that many people have hoarded food, and they are unable to protect themselves.

The lieutenants were also startled, and hurriedly went to carry the corpses, and someone carried buckets of water to wipe the blood on the ground and the yellow and white things that burst out.

Continue to look for money, but what else can he use as collateral?

"It's over, it's over, this is the end of my life!" Zhang Taigong suddenly discovered that Zhou Juren was lucky, he was at least dead, but it was a hundred.

And the situation he has to face is really more uncomfortable than punishing his heart.

Mrs. Zhang's face was uncertain, and he was full of grief at this time, and he felt that his mind was extremely chaotic and a mess.

At this time, I heard someone shouting: "Wei Guogong...... Wei Guo Gong ...... It's all you, it's you who hurt us, we are fighting the small people, why are you harming us like this? ”

People don't recognize their mistakes, and if they make mistakes, they must be made by others.

All of a sudden, one stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Zhu Di frowned.

Fortunately, before Zhu Di took the case, there were already many captains, one by one, pressing the handle of the knife, vigilantly surrounding Zhang Anshi, all of them looking ready to go.

Zhang Anshi stood up and said coldly: "I hurt you, what did I hurt you?" I said you want to raise the grain? Or did I say that Nanzhili was a disaster, and the entire Nanzhili should be short of food? Who are the people who have harmed you, and have you not counted them in your own hearts? ”

Some people began to rush upstairs on their feet, driving down those who were reading upstairs, just in case.

Zhang Anshi said with a disdainful sneer: "I have repeatedly said that the Taiping Mansion has a bumper harvest, and the entire Taiping Mansion is thriving, and I even sent a report to severely punish those who spread rumors and cause trouble." But...... Let me ask you, who is spreading rumors and causing trouble, and why do you throw yourself to those who spread rumors and make trouble, one by one? Didn't you always say that this Taiping Mansion was already in ruins? Doesn't it mean that the grain harvest has been exhausted, and the Taiping Mansion is full of hunger? Why, I, Zhang Anshi, have managed the Taiping Mansion and taught you to be disappointed? This Taiping Mansion has not reached the point of cannibalism, that is, I, Zhang Anshi, deserve to die? ”

All of them had a look of despondency, and their faces were as dead as ashes, as if they were the living dead.

Zhang Anshi continued: "You call yourself the Shengdou Xiaomin, but in this Taiping Mansion, why are you unhappy that the Shengdou Xiaomin are all living and working in peace and contentment? Hoarding food, aren't you just waiting for the world to suffer, so that you can make a profit? It's a shame that you are still scholars, and pigs and dogs are not as good as things! If Sage Kong is reborn, he will be angry again when he sees things that are inferior to pigs and dogs. It's a shame that you are all self-righteous, scarves and Confucian shirts, and what kind of saints are called. ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts were furious, some people scolded, but some people snapped and knelt down: "Wei Guogong, save us, save us, save us......"

The prince Zhang was also sick and rushed to the doctor, so he also knelt down, crying and saying with a sad face: "If you don't save us, we will die and have no place to be buried." ”

The crowd wailed.

This time it's really going to be over, there is no family business, and if the land is taken away by the bank. Then the cut is all over.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "You want to teach me how to save it?" ”

Someone said: "As long as Taiping Mansion does not sell grain...... Sooner or later, you will have to rise back this grain. Wei Guo Gong ...... If this can be done, the prince of all generations, and all the people of the world, will be grateful for it......"

"Yes, yes, Wei Guogong implores Wei Guogong to lend a hand!"

The ancient building is not the same as the building of the later generations, don't look at this group of Confucian pavilions is only seven floors, but in fact, the floors of later generations are only 2.8 meters high, and the group of Confucian pavilions are two feet high, one floor and two floors.

Seeing them so miserable, Hu Guang couldn't help but moisten his eyes, and couldn't help but look at Zhang Anshi, hoping that Zhang Anshi would not do anything wrong.

Out of the corner of Yang Rong's eyes, he glanced at Zhang Anshi, as if he was smiling.

Zhang Anshi said: "As long as Taiping Mansion does not sell grain, grain can return to its original price, then...... You're going to survive, aren't you? ”

"Yes, yes! If the Duke of Wei Guo is like this, he will be praised for thousands of years. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "It's not impossible. ”

After everyone listened, some people were ecstatic and seemed to grasp a life-saving straw.

So, everyone bowed down and kowtowed to Zhang Anshi: "Wei Guogong understands righteousness. ”

"And how much food are you going to go back to? Three-two, four-two, five-two? ”

Zhang Anshi continued word by word: "If the bulk of grain rises, then the people have to buy grain at several times the price, and spend several times the price in order to fill their stomachs, right?" ”

"I promise you that I can preach this for thousands of years, and I naturally believe this. But I promised you, the people in other provinces of Nanzhili who are short of food, and the cost of their grain purchase will be unattainable. And your deficit will be passed on to those small people who need to buy food. You say...... Will they come to scold me, Zhang Anshi, or will they come to scold you? ”

Zhang Taigong trembled, and he didn't know if it was because of Zhou Juren or because of the grain.

"After a thousand years, I Zhang Anshi can't care about it, and I don't want to care about it. Later generations will comment on the merits and demerits, and I have a bird relationship today? I, Zhang Anshi, am short-sighted and only look at the present. If I had done such a thing with you today, I would have been pierced in the bones. You don't want to be cheeky, how can I Zhang Anshi not want it? ”

When everyone heard this, all of a sudden, the last bit of hope was shattered.

Zhang Anshi looked at them, his face was full of mockery, and he sneered: "Guess why I want to hold a poetry meeting here?" I just heard that you people are talking about my rights and wrongs behind my back, and I am saying that the Taiping Mansion is full of hunger, but I just want to take advantage of today's grain transportation day to teach you to see with your own eyes and see how ridiculous you are! So far...... You still want me Zhang Anshi to save you, how old are you? ”

Zhang Anshi said, waved his hand disdainfully, like chasing flies: "Those who want to die will die, those who want to scold continue to scold, love as it is!" But...... Don't die in my group of Confucian Pavilions, don't dirty this group of Confucian Pavilions, come here...... Drop-off. ”

These words really chilled people.

Someone scolded.

Someone was crying.

The captains shouted mercilessly one by one to drive people away.

Mrs. Zhang only felt that his eyes were dark, his heart was cramping, and he exhaled: "Mr. Li, Mr. Li." ”

That Li Xiucai, but he had already fled, and there was no trace at all.

He only had a sense of despair, as if he was finished.

Zhang Taigong immediately snorted and fell directly to the ground.

Bang.

A moment later, someone stepped forward and shouted, "Another one is dead." ”

Zhang Anshi was still cold and unmoved.

It wasn't until these people carried away and drove away that peace was restored in this group of Confucian pavilions.

"Hey, Hu Guang sighed."

He sighed too much, but he heard a voice suddenly come from outside: "Why doesn't the court care?" Is there any Wang Fa who has bullied us like this...... Oh, my God...... The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, is there no one who is a gentleman? ”

But some people scolded: "Hu Guang misled the country, and he will never be born in the next life!"

Hu Guang:

The cacophony of voices grew farther and farther away.

Sure enough, another little guy who didn't know who rushed over and shouted: "One tael of silver and one stone of grain, this grain can't be sold, and the grain traded on the market is 800 Wen."

Zhu Di glanced up at Hu Guang playfully.

Hu Guang was busy bowing down, and said with a wry smile: "Minister." ”

Zhu Di said lightly: "Get up, they scold you for misleading the country, and it's better than them praising you." If such a person praises you as a gentleman, then ...... I'll have to be cautious with you. ”

Hu Guang didn't know what to say for a while. He suddenly realized that Yang Rong might be right.

It's just that...... When I thought that I was infamous and disliked by the group I was born into, I was still emotional and sad, and I didn't know how to deal with it.

Seeing that everyone who should have left was gone, Zhang Anshi had already stepped forward and saluted: "Why is Your Majesty here?" ”

Zhu Di said: "Come and take a look here, look at the liveliness, well, Qunru Pavilion, it's good here." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Minister...... Didn't flaunt their own meaning. In fact...... I just want to make a square by the river, so that the nearby residents can have a place to go for leisure, but after the square is built, I think that this bare square seems to be missing some embellishment. This pavilion was simply built, visitors are full of food and drink, and relatives and friends are tired of walking in this square, you can also enter the pavilion, take a rest, by the way, you can go to the corridor of this attic to look at the river view. ”

"You've got a lot on your mind." Zhu Di laughed, he felt that Zhang Anshi's brain was indeed overlived, and he wanted to toss everything.

Zhang Anshi smiled: "This attic is built, it is a big problem to choose a name, first of all, it must be elegant, and secondly, it must have a deep meaning You look at the famous buildings in the world, which one has no story behind it." The minister did not dare to tell the story of the attic with the identity of His Majesty and brother-in-law, for fear that he would trespass the palace because of this, and after thinking about it, he had to grieve the minister's brothers, so he named Qun Confucian. ”

Mrs. Zhang only felt that he was going to faint.

Zhu Di waved his hand and said: "There is no need to explain, this time, the summer grain of Taiping Mansion is the best in the world, and it is unexpected." This time, I was also shocked. ”

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Where, where, in fact, what did the minister do?" ”

Zhu Di bowed his head: "This is similar to what Yang Gong said, he also said that this is the result of the concerted efforts of the nine counties of Taiping Mansion, and it cannot be attributed to one person." ”

Zhang Anshi glanced at Yang Rong resentfully, and his mood was very complicated.

Zhu Di continued: "But you are Fu Yin after all, and this credit is still yours." This time, you can be regarded as raising your eyebrows for me, what happened just now? ”

Zhang Anshi explained the matter roughly, and finally said: "There are people who spread rumors everywhere, saying that the Taiping Mansion is over, so many people went to buy grain, and the result is ...... Smash your hands. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Di smiled slightly and said: "These people are really hateful. But what you said just now also spoke to my heart. Deal with these people...... That's how it should be! Just ......) 800 Wen - Stone Grain ...... How much silver have you received for this grain? ”

"It's also eight hundred words." Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, now that the Taiping Mansion has a bumper harvest, there is so much food, but if it is ...... Because of the abundance of grain, the grain plummeted, and in this way, the grain that the people worked so hard to grow was worthless. The so-called grain cheapness hurts farmers. Therefore, the Taiping Mansion has tried out the unified purchase system, that is, in the future, no matter how much grain you have, the grain station will purchase grain for 800 wen and one stone, and part of the collected grain will be used as an emergency reserve in the treasury, and the other part will be digested by a way. ”

Zhu Di listened, frowned, and said. In this case, if the grain is expensive, the people will sell the grain to other places to make a profit, but if the grain is cheap, you will sell it to the government, and the government will lose money? In the long run, it is also a big burden. ”

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Yes, this is also the problem, so except for a part of the storage like a minister, in case of emergency." On the other hand, I plan to find a way to diversify my food. Your Majesty, if there is too much grain, you can make wine, and if it doesn't, the minister also plans to build a few food workshops, so that there will be room for profit. ”

What does this mean?

"Food workshop?" Zhu Di looked at him thoughtfully, as if waiting for his next step.

I saw Zhang Anshi continue: "In addition, those coarse grains can also encourage Baixin to feed livestock." The minister also planned to set up animal husbandry stations in various counties, hire veterinarians, and introduce all kinds of pigs, chickens and ducks...... In short, it is impossible to do without food, but once there is food to eat, it is not possible to eat food alone. What we have to do now is to grow food desperately. The extra grain is always useful. ”

Zhu Di looked at him seriously and said, "Can the people afford animal husbandry?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The ministers have investigated, and now in Taiping Mansion, there are several people in each household, and the land owned is about 20 acres. Now that water conservancy has been repaired, fertilizer has been encouraged, and grain varieties have been improved, in fact, just eating grain, seven or eight acres of land, is enough for a family to eat, three meals a day, and a meal is white rice. ”

3 meals a day·

Hearing this, Mo said Zhu Di, even Xia Yuanji couldn't help but gasp.

Can you not rush to shock?

You must know that the so-called three meals a day, in general, are only enjoyed by the rich and nobles.

In this era, the living habit of ordinary people is to have two meals a day, morning and evening, and it is very good to be able to have a good stomach. And as for white rice...... It is not something that ordinary people can eat at will, and most people eat yellow rice or other coarse grains.

Zhang Anshi said: "Some of the surplus crops can be sold, and the surplus can be enough to raise some chickens and ducks or plant some vegetable fields." Of course, the government cannot but consider the situation in the year of the catastrophe, and if it encounters an extreme year of catastrophe, the government must release grain. In each county, grain depots have been built to ensure a year's and a half years of reserves, in order to prevent accidents. ”
