Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang nodded when he heard this, he said, "What you said is also reasonable, but the achievements of Xiangshan County are also somewhat related to my requirement that all localities must obey the requirements of the horses when it comes to the affairs of Xiangshan County!"

Speaking of this, he thought for a moment and said, "After the New Year, there will be less than one year left in the three-year period of Xiangshan County. It is also time for Yifan to sort out the governance measures of Xiangshan County, which ones are universal, can be promoted and effective throughout the world, and which ones are only suitable for Xiangshan County? Or is it suitable for certain places?"

When Zhu Biao heard this, he asked, "Where the minister sent a letter to Yifan and asked him to summarize it?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he shook his head and said, "No, this time, I will give an order to ask, go through the formal process, and discuss it in the court when I go back."

Speaking of this, after he paused, he still said with a little emotion: "I really didn't expect that Yifan would be able to toss such a big achievement in Xiangshan County, which I didn't expect in advance."

Before going to Xiangshan County, although Zhang Yifan did show a unique talent, it was just an idea after all, and it was hard to say whether it was good or bad.

But now, no matter how others slander Xiangshan County, no one can deny the achievements there.

In the future, if anyone dares to say that the colt is young, hairless on the mouth, and does not handle things well, it will be really blind.

At this time, as for Zhang Yifan's question of the cost of the post station, it can only be put on hold for the time being, and Zhu Yuanzhang is ready to wait until the three-year period of Xiangshan County arrives, discuss appropriate measures, and implement them together at that time.

The eleventh year of Hongwu has basically passed like this.

During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Yifan received a letter from Zhu Di, saying that he had a son.

In this regard, Zhu Jingjing said to Zhang Yifan with expectations: "The fourth brother and we have been married for about the same time, and now he has a son, look, he also wrote a letter to ask for red envelopes!"

When Zhang Yifan heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "It's okay, he wants a red envelope, give him a big one, and we'll give birth to him ten or eight when we go back, and see if he can afford this gift!"

When Zhu Jingjing heard this, he hurriedly asked in surprise, "Brother Fan, don't you need to go seven or eight later?"

Zhang Yifan listened, smiled and said, "We are already adults, if you want to give birth, no problem!"

After the New Year, both of them were nineteen. Even in the later life, it is the age when you can get married and have children, and Zhang Yifan naturally has no worries.

In fact, the first seven and the last eight are not absolute, there is still a chance of pregnancy, Zhang Yifan wants to do this, but he is just doing his best, but he is really not pregnant.

Zhu Jingjing was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "That's good, I'm really afraid that our child will be born before my sister's child is born!"

In the eleventh year of Hongwu, as in the original history, there was another concubine, that is, Mei Yin, who married Princess Ningguo, who was the daughter of Queen Ma and the second daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang.

I have to say that Zhu Yuanzhang still values Mei Yin very much.

From then on, Captain Ma was not just Zhang Yifan alone, he had company.

At this time, Zhang Yifan heard a little bit of complaint from Zhu Jingjing's words, so he said with a smile: "My term of office as the county magistrate of Xiangshan County is less than one year left. The intention of the father to send Fang Xiaoru over is also obvious, he intends to let him take over the post of county magistrate of Xiangshan County. After the year, I estimated that he was already familiar with the government affairs of Xiangshan County, so I slowly handed over everything to him to take care of, so that we would have more time to create people!"

Although he is already thinking of ways to reduce his burden, after all, he is the leader of Xiangshan County, and everything is basically inseparable from his guidance, so that he has been really busy in the past few years.

Zhu Jingjing listened, couldn't help blushing, and then nodded and said, "My father just came to the decree to let you summarize the government affairs of Xiangshan County, which should be the same meaning, when the three-year period is up, we can go back to Beijing!"

Although it is good and free to be here. However, for example, during the Chinese New Year, there are some relatives who miss Jingshi.

Although Zhang Yifan is an orphan, he also regards Liujia Village as his home. The big cow and the second cow brought together, one was sent by him to be in charge of the cement factory

, one is in charge of Yantian, and now he is also the eldest and the same, and they are all thinking about going back to get married and have children.

As soon as this year passed, the twelfth year of Hongwu came. Under the pretext of completing the emperor's will, Zhang Yifan confidently began to hand over the official duties of the county order to Fang Xiaoru to do.

For example, reading those official documents every day, signing them, etc., let Fang Xiaoru do it, as well as inspect various squares, industries, and so on. In this way, Zhang Yifan is much easier.

………………

At the wharf of Xiangshan County, in the midst of the surging crowds, a group of people got off the boat, about 20 people, which looked different.

I saw that among these people, fifteen or sixteen were strong men, and at first glance they were the kind that could fight. There are five or six of them, and the temperament is the kind that walks the rivers and lakes. But the person at the head has some bearing. In short, if you look like you're not a businessman, let alone a part-time worker.

Originally, there was a group of coachmen here who were robbing for life. Seeing this group of people getting off the boat, no one dared to go up to solicit business at the first time.

It was these people who summoned the group of coachmen over, and then said that they wanted to stay in the best inn in Xiangshan County.

When they arrived at the inn, the men who served them were stopped, and one of them said, "Our Master Li wants to ask questions, and if you answer well, you will be rewarded, and if you dare not answer truthfully, be careful of ear scraping!"

The guy was a little scared, and hurriedly served respectfully.

So, I heard that Li Ye, who was the leader, began to ask.

"Do you have casinos in Xiangshan County, how many are there, and who is the owner?"

"How many green houses do you have here? Who's behind it?"

「……」

This person asked a bunch of questions, all related to casinos and Fengyue venues.

The guy's calculations can be seen, it's not that the Raptors are not the river, this group of outsiders is not good at coming, and the good ones are not coming.

With such a population in Xiangshan County, it is inevitable that there are green buildings and casinos.

After learning about the specific situation, the follower who was a little thief-eyed, after the guy left, said to Li Ye: "Li Ye, it's too outrageous in Xiangshan County, you have to levy such a heavy tax and grab money!"

When Li Ye heard this, he recalled the past when he dealt with this horse, and was a little helpless, and replied: "Before I came, my family explained that we should not conflict with the county decree of the horse, since he set such a heavy tax, we must also abide by it. Either way, it's a lucrative business."

This Li Ye is none other than Li Laifu, the steward of Li Shanchang's younger brother Li Cunyi's mansion.

The business of taking advantage of the sideways, especially this casino and Fengyue Field, is a profitable business.

Li Shanchang is not a soft-hearted good person, and there is no reason not to interfere in transactions that can make a lot of money.

When he was in Xiangshan County, he saw that such a large population was still a new place, and all of them were rich, so he keenly felt that casinos and green buildings would definitely be very profitable businesses.

However, he is the first hero of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and he also wants to save face, this kind of work related to gambling and Qinglou, he himself is not good to come forward, so his second brother sent someone out to make money.

At this time, Li Laifu's subordinates said a little speechlessly: "However, what does it mean for the horse to let people declare that gambling harms others and themselves in the casino, and nine out of ten gambles are lost? On the Qinglou side, a doctor has to be appointed for examination every half a month, which is a lot of money, compared to other places, it's really fucking eventful!"

Li Laifu heard this, and said a little irritably: "This is the land of the horse, even if the master comes, it must be behaved. That colt is sideways, and even the uncle can scare him. So, don't worry about any strange rules, just don't break them."

After a pause, he added, "Who doesn't know the consequences of gambling, but there are still a lot of people who gamble. Leave this stuff alone!"

Li Laifu is a talker, he said so, even if the people below are not used to it, they can only listen.

In the following days, they began to step on the ground, and then targeted several casinos and green buildings, and intervened strongly.

Just because they don't dare to touch the horses doesn't mean they behave in a proper way.

Bullying is a necessary skill, and it is also the main basis for profiteering.

In the first half of the twelfth year of Hongwu, similar to this kind of dragon crossing the river, especially from Jingshi, suddenly increased, and not only involved Qinglou and casinos, but also other money-making transactions.

In the past, Xiangshan County was too far away, and I didn't know how much money Xiangshan County could make.

However, it has been more than two years since then, and the fame of Xiangshan County has spread throughout the country. Especially last year, so many Beijing officials came to visit, and it spread the prosperity of Xiangshan County, which was like a fly smelling a slit egg and immediately swarming it.

It can be met that as time goes by, there will only be more and more such raptors crossing the river, and they will all come to Xiangshan County to grab food.

If Zhang Yifan's crackdown last year was actually only targeted by local hooligans and bullies, then this time, there are all kinds of dignitaries and nobles in the background.

If you are in another place, in the face of such a group of cross-river dragons, people with ordinary backgrounds can only admit it. No matter what, you can't fight these dragons.

But where is this?

This is Xiangshan County, or a special district.

If these things happened before the Yongjiahou incident, then they might also be succeeded by some cross-river dragons, which frightened those bitter masters to think that they were unlucky.

But now, not to mention the entire Xiangshan County, even the whole of Guangdong knows that on the territory of the horse, the dragon has to be coiled, and the horse will not penetrate who you are!

As a result, one after another the bitter masters went to the yamen to complain.

However, it just so happened that Zhang Yifan began to let go and let Fang Xiaoru exercise his ability as the county magistrate of Xiangshan County, and some things were handled a little slower.

In fact, these cases are not public security incidents, but commercial incidents, or economic disputes. Compared with those cheats, abduction and robbery, it has a certain degree of concealment.

By the time Fang Xiaoru reacted, the case was a bit too much.

However, Fang Xiaoru himself is not a person who bullies the weak and fears the hard, you must know that in the original history, the allusions of the Ten Clans should be on him. Regardless of whether there is really a killing of the Ten Clans, one thing is very clear, that is, Fang Xiaoru's bones are very hard!

So, Fang Xiaoru personally took the arrest fast, arrested people one by one, and reported to the backstage that was useless, and then sentenced according to the law.

In the summer of the twelfth year of Hongwu, the high-ranking officials and nobles who had passed from Beijing fled back to Beijing one after another, crying and complaining to their backstage, including Li Laifu.

As the saying goes, when the pride and ambition come, the gray head and the face of the mouse return, it is talking about this group of people.

Blocking people's money, this time, it stabbed the hornet's nest.

If the horses did this, they might be able to endure it, and now Fang Xiaoru, who is not even a nothing, is so faceless, so can it be repaid?

Of course, they're not stupid enough to talk about these things, because if they really want to talk about it, they're in the wrong. As a result, they launched an attack on Xiangshan County from various angles.

For example, Xiangshan County attracts population, which is to lie on other places to suck blood, and it is absolutely not advisable.

For example, Xiangshan County is overpopulated, and once there is an outbreak of plague, famine, etc., it will lead to large-scale disasters!

Some people even asked to check the accounts, saying that Xiangshan County has only been in less than three years, where can there be so much money, it must be a clever robbery, and the people are fat and ointment!

There are also people who say that everyone in Xiangshan County is rich, and there is definitely a problem, and they ask to go to Xiangshan County for verification!

In short, some of them don't, they are holding a magnifying glass, or looking for trouble according to what they think.

Among them, there is even the credit of Li Shanchang.

He didn't say that there was a problem in Xiangshan County, but on the contrary, it was the kind of praise that was endless. Let the water on the side of Jingshi about Xiangshan County become more mixed.

At this juncture, Zhang Yifan's summary of the recital also arrived in Beijing through official channels, that is, the recital first went to the General Political Division, then to Zhongshu Province, and then to the East Palace and the emperor.

This was done by Zhu Yuanzhang on purpose, and the purpose of doing so was to make the content of the concert public.

Zhang Yifan is playing

The sum goes like this:

First, the household registration reform implemented in Xiangshan County can be carried out throughout the country, which is universal, unleashes the enthusiasm of the people, chooses jobs independently, and improves productivity.

Second, the law on the distribution of grain land to the public implemented in Xiangshan County is also fully equipped with the conditions for implementation in all parts of the country, which can solve the problem of hidden households and hidden fields nationwide, ensure that the common people reduce the possibility of starvation, and increase the income of the imperial court.

Third, the salt boiling method was changed to the salt field method, which was suitable for promotion in coastal areas, and allowed the major salt-producing regions to compete with each other, and adopted the official sales system. This practice of increasing the supply of salt can not only put an end to the sale of illicit salt, but also reduce the possibility of salt merchants filling up the official salt for sale, and reduce the people's expenditure on salt, increase the use of salt, and benefit the people.

Fourth, the model of government-run cement plants is also suitable for national promotion, so as to ensure that cement can reduce costs due to large-scale firing, which can not only benefit the people, but also make profits to further develop better cement.

Fifth, it is very necessary to develop government revenues through government-run sales and the promotion of commerce, increase commercial taxes, and the land system (the purchase and sale of houses must be linked to houses built by the government), implement a hierarchical financial system, and ensure that local governments have money to do the public things that must be done locally.

Sixth, it is also very necessary to do business with other countries, sell low-priced goods at high prices, and buy back the materials needed by the country. Not only can it be done along the coast, but also in the interior, and if necessary, the Silk Road will be restarted and the army will escort it.

…………

The public performance of this recital immediately detonated the officialdom of the Beijing Division. When all the officials meet, they will inevitably discuss this recital.

It can be said that many of the measures here have touched the interests of many vested interests. Even if this is the founding of the country, there are still many vested interests, and most of the vested interests among them are the founding heroes.

Even if Zhang Yifan also listed his expenses as a county official at the back of this recital, and proved that the middle and low-level officials of the Ming Dynasty had too few salaries, so it was necessary to establish a reasonable salary system and a year-end bonus based on political performance, which could not stop those with vested interests from making irresponsible remarks about this recital.

The reason is very simple, most of these vested interests are the founding heroes of the country, and they are in high positions, and their more and less will have little impact on them. But the two aspects of grain fields and salt are things that they attach great importance to.

Even if Zhang Yifan used the example of Xiangshan County to show that the income from growing grain is not as good as buying and selling, they are also obsessed with the grain field.

Of course, because of Zhu Yuanzhang in charge, although some people are dissatisfied with this concert, they only dare to oppose it on a case-by-case basis, but do not dare to shout and kill the horses.

If it is replaced by the king of the future generations, not to mention the horse, it is the emperor, and those who dare to move their interests like this may fall into the water or something.

This matter was noisy until July of the twelfth year of Hongwu, when there were only more than two months left before the three-year period when the horse was appointed as the county magistrate of Xiangshan County, and Emperor Hongwu finally made a decision.

At this time, the construction of the imperial city of Nanjing had been completed, and Zhu Yuanzhang summoned hundreds of civil and military officials, as well as the royal relatives and nobles, to hold a court meeting in the Jinluan Palace.

Facing these courtiers below, Zhu Yuanzhang announced coldly: "Regarding the new policy of Xiangshan County, what is the matter, if you quarrel in Beijing, you will not be able to get a result. Regardless of whether I approve or disapprove, I took Qing and the others to Xiangshan County to see if it was a mule or a horse, and sneaked out to see. Okay, I'll do it; It's not good, I'm definitely not going to do it, so who's for it and who's against?"

Civil and Military Officials: "......"

In Emperor Hongwu's words of "who is in favor and who is against", as long as you know a little about the emperor's temper, you will know that the emperor has moved a trace of murderous energy. If this is not in favor, then there is nothing to say!

Probably, that's what it means.

Zhu Yuanzhang is the founding emperor, and after ascending the throne and becoming emperor, he also went to Kaifeng, so it is not a special case for him to leave Nanjing and go to Xiangshan County.

Under the majesty of Zhu Yuanzhang, no courtier dared to oppose this decision.

So, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the prince who had already been to Xiangshan County to supervise the country, and the prince Li Shanchang assisted him, leaving the necessary officials

After that, he took the adult prince, as well as the prime minister Hu Weiyong and other civil and military officials, and went to Xiangshan County.
