By the barrel of the cannon under the thick shade of the ancient temple, this student looked at everything in front of him and gritted his teeth.

And in the Jiangshang official boat in front of him, the man wearing a scarlet official robe and a black gauze hat was hit by a cannonball, and there was no bloodshed.

Only a lot of straw grew out of the official robes made of costumes.

This student knows that his people have been deceived by Hai Rui.

"It's a failure!"

"Inform the host of Xuanjue, run away!"

"It's a fake Hai Jui on board!"

Therefore, after a moment of silence, the creature immediately commanded.

……

At this time, by the river shrouded in smoke and rain, Hai Rui was wearing a hat, a cloth coat and a coat, a pair of straw sandals, and a trouser leg rolled, walking on the polder.

The things he carried, except for the handwritten instructions given to him by Zhu Yijun in his arms, there was nothing else.

From afar, it looks like a farmer.

At this time, Hai Rui saw the official ship not far from him being hit by a cannonball.

But Hai Rui was not shocked, he only looked at the officers and soldiers of the Jinwuwei who had rushed into the sea of smoke that had condensed into a mountain on the opposite side, and laughed.

Lu Kun and Tang Chuanxun also wore clothes and hats to accompany them.

Among them, Lu Kun was carrying a rainproof bag coated with persimmon oil, which contained a large seal and blank official letters, pen and ink.

And Tang Chuanxun carried an ordinary long knife and pretended to be an ordinary dartman.

But after seeing this scene, the two stood in place with shocked faces.

"Butang, you guessed it! There really would be such a bold person who would bombard the official ship with artillery, there is a problem with this Zhenjiang water division! ”

"Only the Zhenjiang Water Division has this cannon!"

Tang Chuanxun couldn't help but speak first.

Hai Rui said: "Never underestimate the ruthlessness of the local Haoyou in the dark, although they will not dare to turn their faces when they fight in the open, but they dare to use any tricks behind their backs, and this is not the first time that this hall has come to Nanzhi to govern, and I have already seen their methods!" ”

Tang Chuanxun and Lu Kun both nodded after hearing this.

Immediately, Hai Rui instructed Lu Kun: "When you find a farmhouse to rest, you will write a note for the impeachment of Shu Dayun, the deputy chief of Zhenjiang, for this church, and report this matter!" ”

Lu Kun said yes.

Then, Lu Kun said to Hai Rui: "Ministry, the open gun is easy to dodge and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, this time their hidden arrow did not work, the lower official is wondering, will they have a second time?" ”

"In this case, how should we deal with it, is it still faceless and lurking in the countryside?"

"Xinwu, you have to remember that in the court, you must rely on the king, and in the land, you must rely on the people!"

"For Haoyou, how to make it?"

"First, you need to take the initiative to go to the people, understand the local facts, know the voice of the majority of the people, and then come out of the people, so that although the arrogant and treacherous and ruthless, but will also be suppressed by the officials in charge of the government with the technique of four or two thousand catties, that is, the people are not enough to encourage them, but for the government to win over, making it a tree without roots, even if it is as solid as a stone, it can be cut with a knife and an axe."

"This is also the reason why I took you out of Yangzhou, I sneaked into micro-service, when I knew that the things in Yangzhou let other Haoyou from all over Nanzhi know that we were determined to implement the new policy and were not willing to give up, we had to go deep into the common people first, and then know the people's suffering, and then make the people rely on themselves."

"At the beginning of that year, the church should be appeased, so it was known that the most bitter households of the people forcibly occupied the acres of new cultivated land, and took the initiative to issue an order to allow the common people to stop the complaint, so the people first stood on the side of the hall, intensifying the contradiction between them and the Haoyou, so that they could rely on the secret arrow of the common people's defense of the big households, so at that time, the big households of the Haoyou could only transfer the main hall away, but could not assassinate the main hall."

Hai Rui taught Lu Kun earnestly at this time.

Scholars have always had the habit of cultivating junior talents, and perhaps everyone has a good side of being a teacher, especially those who are older in high positions.

Therefore, Hairui is no exception.

Lu Kun and Tang Chuanxun both listened carefully and responded with their heads bowed.

But Lu Kun continued to say after hearing this: "But this time I'm afraid it's more dangerous, if the court refuses to listen to Haoyou's mercy and is transferred out of the ministry." ”

"If you are reliable and have the majority of people to rely on, then you don't have to be afraid!"

"Even if he really dies in office, it can be regarded as a well-deserved death, which is the best way for Wenchen to die, and he is also a military minister who died on the battlefield, although he is still honored!"

"However, although this church is not afraid of death, it will not fail to protect itself, so this time I took the official boat with a dummy, and the real person sneaked on the boat path, you will be the official side in the future, if you want to carry out the government of benefiting the people and enriching the country, you should do the same, not afraid of death, but you must not really take your life seriously."

Hai Rui said.

Lu Kun and Tang Chuanxun both continued to say yes.

At this time, Hai Rui came over because he met an old farmer digging the ground, and said with a smile: "Old man, is this year's summer harvest good?" ”

"Well, even if the rent has been increased again, the interest has also been increased, and the family has added a mouth, there is still no savings, which is not as good as you foot traders."

The old farmer replied, obviously treating Hai Rui as an overseas Chinese businessman.

After all, Nanzhi has developed commerce and trade, and the locals are no strangers to businessmen from other places.

After hearing this, Hai Rui asked again: "Why do you want to increase the rent and raise the interest rate?" ”

"The owner said that the court did not give them preferential exemptions, and the extra taxes they paid had to be added from the rent, otherwise we would not be allowed to rent it."

The old farmer replied, then raised his head and looked at Hai Rui: "But can we not be tenants?" If you don't have a tenant, there are many homeless tenants who have no land and can only beg and dig wild vegetables, so it is better to continue to tenant, just eat a few less meals. ”

"As for the interest of Qingmiao, although it is owed to the monks in the temple, behind these monks are all big masters who can't be provoked, and they say that because the new policy wants to raise interest rates, we can't resist."

After hearing this, Hai Rui nodded, and then came over and whispered to Lu Kun and Tang Chuanxun: "This is the people's feelings!" Although the new policy is only to take advantage of the gentry, it will eventually affect the common people! ”

Lu Kun nodded, and then asked Hai Rui: "But why is the ministry still willing to do this?" ”

"The abolition of preferential exemptions only increases the burden on all ordinary people;"

"But if we do not cancel the preferential exemption, either the imperial court tax and silver will be dried up in the future, or the greater burden will only be placed on the small peasants who have no merit, so that the small peasants will go bankrupt or rebel more quickly, and whatever the result, the country will perish!"

"But in the former, if the common people can't afford it and no longer rent it, the court can still have money to suppress or appease it."

"When today's son is benevolent, he is willing to pay more taxes to increase the people's wealth, or he does not need to suppress it, but focuses on care, which can solve the contradiction of more people and less land."

Hai Rui said to Lu Kun and Tang Chuanxun: "Wait for this hall to ask again, and you will know." ”

Hai Rui said and took the initiative to ask the old farmer: "Old man, your land looks quite barren, too close to the river, less mud and more sand, no water and fertilizer, I saw that no one cultivated it in previous years, why did you dig its land here?" ”

The old farmer smiled and said, "It seems that you, a merchant, also know how to do farming." ”

"That's, it's not a secret, Ben, before I started business, I also cultivated my own land in my hometown, and I planted forty acres of land alone."

Hai Rui replied with a smile.

After hearing this, the old farmer nodded, and said: "This land is indeed unproductive, but in recent years, the officials have to follow the decree of the imperial court to promote what sweet potatoes, saying that it is suitable for barren sandy land, we can't, dare not obey the order, anyway, the strength does not need money, so I tried to plant it, the result is really good, the production is more, although the rent and interest rate hike have been increased very much over the years, but there is no hunger, it all depends on him." ”

"It's no wonder that the celebrant was ordered to cultivate the grain a few years ago, and His Majesty has long been aware of today's situation."

Tang Chuanxun couldn't help but say at this time.

Lu Kun said: "The Son of Heaven lives in the deep palace, how do you know this? Presumably it was reminded by Yuan Fu, who made a contribution to solving the shortcomings of the New Deal. ”

"The Son of Heaven is virtuous, and Yuan Fu is meritorious, so that the new policy can be feasible."

Hai Rui said a word, and continued to walk forward, and said: "There is a farmer in front of me who is a friend of mine, hurry up and go to his house to rest before the sun comes out!" Then discuss how to get the people to support the new deal when the new deal is implemented! ”

With that, Hai Rui walked forward quickly.

Lu Kun and Tang Chuanxun hurriedly followed.

……

"Hai Jui is not on the official ship, our matter is lost!"

In Zhenjiang Fucheng, in a separate garden, Shu Dayun, the deputy chief soldier, hurriedly walked in front of Lu Yi, the right capital of Nanjing, and Lu Yi, the governor of Caojiang, and said with a disappointed face.

"What?!"

Lu Yi stood up reluctantly, pushed away the servant girl in his arms, and paced around the room in disheveled clothes, frowning.

"What a Hai Rui, he is really cunning as an official!"
