Chapter 42: A Breakthrough Strategy
The landlords united and refused to pay taxes, and the county officials were unable to pay taxes to the government, and now the people in Zhenjiang Prefecture were in chaos, and they were still discussing whether to cancel the policy. Only the Pengyu was still walking there like a nobody.
No, I went to climb Jinshan, and I just returned to Zhenjiang Mansion.
Everyone stopped him and said, "Lord Niu, it's messed up now, why don't you go out to play." ”
Ji Pengyu said: "I'm having fun in time, what's the matter, what's going on?" ”
Everyone gossiped and said to Zheng Peng, and when he heard it, his head was dizzy, and he said: "Even if they unite and refuse to pay taxes, you all talk about your own things, and your heads are dizzy." ”
"Mountain people have their own tricks." Make Pengqiao pretend to be suspenseful.
"Lord Niu, it's all this time, what else is there to sell."
"If you say it, it won't work."
Not to mention that it is to prevent the eyes of those landlords in this to know, this matter must be done by a person who makes a profit for the name, in fact, the Pengqiao is not a clever plan, it is all handed down by the ancients, yes, the Pengqiao is ready to use the discord to divide them.
At this time, Qiu Cheng is preparing for the march, there is no need to be in a hurry if there is no war, it is expected to leave tomorrow and arrive the day after tomorrow.
First of all, the system is to select the official in charge of this matter, since the system of Pengyu took office, except for his own personal guards, other cronies have not been cultivated, and now there is something to do, but there is no one available. But during this time he is not playing in vain, he has been searching for information when he plays, in his opinion, the best candidate is Fan Wei, this person is more tactful, but more principled, and resolutely does not take ill-gotten gains, but the contradiction is that he is greedy for money. But let those overly pedantic literati deal with this matter, maybe it really doesn't handle it as well as him.
So he said he would do it, and went to find Fan Wei in person. Fan Wei was naturally flattered by the personal visit of the Pengyu, and hurriedly invited the Pengyu to take a seat. He is also a smart person, so he naturally understands that there must be something for him to do, after all, he has nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace.
Fan Wei asked his subordinates to retreat after serving tea, and he felt that this young man was very good.
"If you have anything to do, please tell me." Fan Weidao.
"Master Fan, you are a smart person, and you don't waste your energy when you talk." He praised it.
"Your Excellency, just give me orders." Fan Weidao.
"You also know about the landlords' joint refusal to pay rent, and this time I came to solve this matter."
"What do you want me to do?"
"You first announce to the people that there is already a family that has already paid taxes to the government, find a way to let the other landlords know, wait until they are suspicious of each other, and then expand the situation and let their alliance fall apart, and finally we can do it one by one and let them pay the taxes." Pengqiao Road.
Fan Wei praised: "The adult's idea is so wonderful, the villain didn't think of this step at all." ”
Ji Pengyu said: "Master Fan, this matter is very important, and it must be handled well. ”
Fan Wei nodded solemnly and sent the maker out of the door, this is an opportunity for him to ascend to the sky in one step, as long as he operates well, let the prefect take a fancy to him, and when the time comes, he will be promoted in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
After everything is arranged, the Pengyu will browse Zhenjiang City aimlessly, the bazaar is very lively, even in the afternoon is people coming and going, but there are not many things to sell, salt and other seasonings are basically not seen, there are also merchants selling salt, but the price of salt is basically the same as gold, seeing that the people are so miserable, the Pengyu decided to make a big plan after returning to China, to engage in sea salt to sell, although there is no salt mine in the Champa country, but there are spices from all over the Majapahit, seasoning is not lacking, But the dishes when Zhu Yuanzhang held the celebration banquet before were tasteless, not to mention this small Zhenjiang City, and there was nothing.
I'm doing this for the benefit of the people. What, you say I'm here to make money, don't talk nonsense, I give them salt, what's wrong with him giving me money, isn't it unreasonable?
"Sir, give me some money." A few well-dressed people stepped forward to talk to the man.
"Where are you from? Listening to accents is not local. He asked.
"Master, we are from Anqing." That's humane.
"No wonder." He suddenly realized, so he sighed and said: "I can only solve short-term problems if I give you money, now I will give you a way to solve long-term problems, drag your family and move to other places, there is no rebellion there, everyone has land, everyone can get education, you go or not." ”
"Go, go, go." Naturally, they can't ask for it, they can't live anymore anyway, so it's better to gamble, in case it's true.
"Alright, you come with me." The rebels now have to arrange for the displaced people to be taken away when they have time.
When the group came to Zhenjiang Mansion, those homeless people were naturally not stupid, and they also recognized that this was the official government, so they knew that this person was the official of Zhenjiang Mansion, and their original apprehension was also slightly relaxed.
Zheng Pengyu also has no real estate in Zhenjiang, and is still the house of the official family who lives for the time being, so there is no way, so they can only be arranged in the government office first.
"Lord Niu, who are these people?" There were also officials left behind in the government office, and when they saw that the puff maker had brought back some ragged people, they asked him.
"These are all displaced people from Anqing, I think they are pitiful, recruit them, and do some handymen." He explained.
"Lord Niu is really a bodhisattva." The officials sighed and went about their business.
He smoothly sent the person to the courtyard, "Okay, then you can live here first." ”
Those people suddenly knelt down and said, "Lord Xie Niu." ”
"Hurry up." The maker lifted them up one by one.
"Dare to ask Lord Niu, but it's called Niu Coins." Suddenly one asked, but it was also a question that everyone else wanted to ask.
"Yes, I'm a bull."
Now they are completely relieved, Niu Coin is their parent official, when they were divided into land, and visited the people everywhere, the local people respect him very much, but every time, Niu Daren resigned, at that time the people have been a pity Niu Coin has not been an official in Anqing, now it seems that Niu Daren was transferred to Zhenjiang as an official.
"Lord Niu, you want to save the people of Anqing." And they bowed down again.
"Now that the imperial court has recovered Anqing, if you want to go home, you can go home, if you want to move to other safe places, you can stay, and I can arrange for you to go."
Everyone looked at each other, of course they were reluctant to go home, but at present it was still the front line, and the security problem could not be guaranteed.
Seeing that everyone hesitated, he said, "You should think about it." ”
