Chapter 414: Huang Shi Gong: Do you think the emperor's eldest grandson is doing charity?

Later, because of a letter from Huiji, the door of the room, which had been closed for almost a whole afternoon, was opened from the inside. Zhao Ying, who had celebrated with Ah Nu for a long time, was full of red light and full of energy.

"The third uncle's letter?"

He raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise and took the letter from Zhang Liang's hand. He didn't expect that Gongzi Jiang Lu would have someone send the letter here.

He couldn't help but open the letter from Huiji with some curiosity.

"I heard that the virtuous nephew is coming to the south, and he has arrived in Zhang County, and he is very happy for his uncle.

Looking at this extremely simple but earnest letter, Zhao Ying couldn't help but show a smile on his face. Among these uncles, the most honest and reliable one is the fourth uncle and son, the most bold and resolute one is the third uncle Jianglu, the most ambitious one is the eighteenth uncle Hu Hai, and there are few left.

This third uncle is one of the most valued elders in his royal blood family.

He just groaned for a while, then made a decision, walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and wrote a reply letter to Gongzi Jianglu with his own hands, and turned his head to the messenger standing behind Zhang Liang.

"After I go back, tell the third uncle for me, and after I'm done here, I'll go over to visit ...... right away."

"No!"

The messenger stretched out his hands, respectfully accepted the letter handed over by Zhao Ying, and was about to say goodbye and leave, Zhao Ying smiled and waved his hand.

"There's no need to be so anxious, you have worked hard all the way, and you will have a good night's rest here today, wash the dust, and leave again tomorrow, and when I see the third uncle, I will explain to him in person......"

The messenger hesitated slightly, then agreed gratefully and followed Zhang Liang down to rest.

Zhao Ying sat back at the table, took out the file full of the wealthy families of Zhangjun again, and flipped through the pages one by one, his face was calm and unwavering, and he couldn't see any reaction.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that he slowly closed the file and walked out of his study.

"Your Highness—"

Seeing Zhao Ying coming out of the room, he had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and stepped forward in a deep voice. Zhao Ying stopped and gently spit out two words.

"Liao's family—"

Shocked to hear this, his expression was solemn.

"No!"

With that, he turned around and strode away, quickly disappearing into the night. Jing Nai is an elite captain from the Black Ice Terrace, and some things, when dealt with, seem to be invisible, which makes him more and more appreciative.

……

After Zhao Ying arrived in Zhangjun, among all the work, the fastest implementation was free education.

Although for a while, the printed free books could not be in place, but the people of this era do not have so many cares at all, and only need a teacher and an open space to recruit a group of students.

The second is the promotion of manure and new farming techniques.

For these, now even the court officials who came with him have mastered it very well, and they don't need Zhao Ying to take action personally. In addition, now everyone from top to bottom attaches great importance to farming, and when I heard that His Royal Highness the Emperor is going to teach new techniques for manure and farming, I am almost struggling to learn, and the progress of the implementation is extremely gratifying.

Now, this group of officials under his command has carried out hundreds of lectures and demonstrations in Zhangjun County, and led the people of Zhangjun County to dig and build nearly 100 large pits in the fields.

The results are gratifying.

Since the charity hall could not find a suitable place, it could only be temporarily set up in the west courtyard of the county guard's house.

However, Zhao Ying once emphasized to Jian Yong repeatedly in front of everyone that although this charity hall was temporarily set up on the county guard's mansion, and some county officials participated in this work, the charity hall was not subordinate to any yamen of the county guard's mansion, but an independent piece, which was specially allocated by the royal charity hall and operated by a special person to carry out assistance and relief for the situation in Zhang County.

Because of the large number of people involved, the workload is extremely heavy and cumbersome to implement one by one, but everyone knows that the emperor and grandson attach importance to this job, and they also know the habits of His Royal Highness the emperor and grandson, and no one dares to slack off.

Zhao Ying's request is very simple, that is, he must hand over the money and food to the people who really need it, and there must be no nepotism.

The people's project can't break the people's will!

For this one, Zhao Yingka is very dead.

Therefore, on the contrary, the progress of this part is quite slow. However, this problem will be alleviated with the establishment of relief points in various counties and townships by the Charity Hall.

Holding the recent arrangement of the Charity Hall, Xu Ying, who had been watching from the sidelines with his own master, frowned slightly.

"Master, you say, isn't it a bit of a fuss for the emperor's eldest grandson to do this?"

Huang Shigong glanced noncommittally at his extremely intelligent little apprentice.

"Why?"

"Master, since Changsha County, I have been observing this charity hall of the emperor's eldest grandson, and it has actually placed the strongholds of the charity hall in every township - how much manpower and material resources does this need, and how much food does he have to come up with to support this shelf? It is said that in Zhang County alone, the emperor's eldest grandson needs to provide nearly 100,000 yuan of grain every year, which is almost equivalent to the annual expenditure of the entire county government......"

Xu Cheng has obviously gone through a detailed investigation and has already had his own thoughts on this issue.

She looked at Huang Shigong with an incredulous expression.

"The emperor's eldest grandson is a genius, and his face is clumsy, how can he not understand such a simple truth? Once you are short of money and unable to support it, it will inevitably attract the backlash of the people and become the target of the public......"

The old man of Huangshi Gong couldn't help but smile dumbly when he looked at the worried little apprentice.

"You also said that His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun is a genius in the sky - do you think that even you and I can think of a question that His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun can't think of?"

Xu Negative: ......

"Then why does he still spare no effort to promote this, is it possible that he can still set up charity halls in every county in the world, and when the time comes, even if His Majesty gives him all the money and food, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to gather all the money and food that needs relief......"

When the old man Huangshi heard this, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and was about to speak, but he saw Zhang Liang walking in briskly, and immediately stopped again, and turned his head to look at Zhang Liang, who was walking in quickly with a box of pastries.

"Liang met Master, I saw Little Junior Sister-"

After saying that, he stepped forward with a smile and put down the pastry in his hand.

"This is Wangxiang Pavilion sent someone to send it to His Highness, His Highness didn't eat it, let me send it over, saying that I asked Master and Little Sister to try it......"

Xu Ying's nose shrugged slightly, and his little face suddenly showed an intoxicated look.

happily stepped forward, pinched a piece, and put it in his mouth.

"I just like to eat this bite, but unfortunately the pastries of this Wangxiang Pavilion are too expensive, and they are not sold on weekdays, so it is not easy to buy......"

As he spoke, he happily held it and sent it to the old man in Huangshi.

"Master, you old man can also taste it, it's really delicious......

Seeing this, Zhang Liang smiled.

"If my sister and master like it, I'll have someone send me some ...... every day."

The old man of Huangshi just smiled and pinched a piece and put it in his mouth, squinted his eyes, and ate the pastry with a satisfied face, when he heard Zhang Liang's words, he couldn't help frowning, and shook his head gently at Zhang Liang.

"Yes, it's a great thing, but it's not necessary to let people send it every day, if you really send it every day, it will make people lose their thoughts in their hearts, and it's not beautiful......"

After speaking, he clapped his hands gently, and Xu Cheng handed Huang Shigong a handkerchief with great eyes.

The old man Huangshi naturally pulled the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, then turned his head to look at Zhang Liang and said with a smile.

"You came just in time, give your junior sister an analysis, why did your Royal Highness spend so much financial and material resources to set up charity halls in various counties and counties?"

Zhang Liang was silent for a long time, and then said slowly.

"His Royal Highness is majestic and strategic, but he is a genius who has never been seen in the ages, and he does not dare to speak presumptuously about His Highness's intentions......"

Seeing Zhang Liang's reaction, the old man Huangshi was relieved and emotional, but he deliberately reminded himself that the most valued disciple did not criticize Zhang Liang, but turned his head to Xu Cheng on the side.

"Since ancient times, the royal power does not go to the countryside, and the emperor's eldest grandson uses the name of the charity hall to provide relief, and to manage the township, so he is not afraid that those people will react in the future and cause a backlash......"

Hearing the words of the old man Huangshi, Zhang Liang couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

It's not that he didn't think about the reason why the emperor's eldest grandson spared no effort to promote the purpose of the charity hall in various places, but he really didn't dare to think about it, because since ancient times, the royal power has not gone to the countryside.

For a long time, the township was controlled by local wealthy clans and village elders, even after the first emperor unified the world, established the county system, and implemented the Qin law, it failed to completely change this situation.

Guanzhong is better, after so many years of reform, the Qin law has penetrated into almost all aspects of the people in Guanzhong, and the old Qin people have become accustomed to the management of these Qin laws, but outside Shandong, it is not the case, these newly acquired land, the local power is inflated, and the control of the government is extremely weak.

There is no special problem, and it is difficult for the local government to meddle in the specific affairs of the locality.

This has almost become a routine, even Zhang Liang, who follows Zhao Ying day by day, is not aware of this problem, but it is the old man Huangshi, a bystander, who looks at it coldly and sees a little bit of Zhao Ying's intentions.

Xu Ying, who was on the side, was already dumbfounded, and she looked at the old man Huangshi in disbelief.

"Master, your old man is saying that the emperor's eldest grandson's charity hall is called charity, but in fact, he has other plans, and wants to infiltrate the control of the imperial court into the township through this......

Old Man Huangshi shook his head lightly and emphasized seriously.

"At least, the charity of the Charity Hall is not false, His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun has indeed taken out a large amount of money and food to help many people who are living in difficulty, as for the control of the place, ......"

Speaking of this, the old man Huangshi glanced at Zhang Liang on the side imperceptibly, and said lightly.

"Maybe it's His Highness's unexpected joy is unknown......"

But whether it is Zhang Liang or Xu Ying, they are the top talents of this era, they never believe in coincidence, but because of this, they attach great importance to this judgment of their master.

"Therefore, His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun is not afraid at all, the charity hall is short of money and food, once this charity hall forms a layout, it will replace the local village elders to govern the place, and completely form a kind of fact called the charity hall, which is actually the township yamen......"

It is only necessary to strictly control the official rank in the yamen at this level, and the number of officials, one place is enough to support one yamen.

"The eldest grandson of the emperor, what a big ambition......"

When Zhang Liang walked by himself, his feet were a little fluttering, and there was a sense of unreality. So, what kind of lord is he assisting during this time?

Following such a lord may really open up a pattern that has never been seen in the ages.

At this moment, the unwillingness and grievance that he had been secretly suppressing in the depths of his heart finally disappeared.

"Your Highness's talent has never been seen in the ages, so I might as well be-"

……

Linqiong.

Royal Iron Workshop.

Zhao Gao, who was dressed in a black robe, had a cold and hard complexion, and his figure was as tall as a knife, compared with when he was in Xianyang, his originally quite handsome face was a little more yin and meanness visible to the naked eye.

At this time, with his hands behind his back, he slowly entered a closed room in the deepest part of the workshop, under the gaze of the elite guards wearing Xuan armor.

It is said to be a room, but it is actually similar to a workshop in later generations. The east and west are long and narrow, there are hundreds of meters, and there are more than a dozen steaming cauldrons lined up in the middle, and under the pot is the coke with a blue fire, and under the blessing of the blower, the more hot and pressing.

"Mr. Zhou, what's wrong, have you ever found the best match......

Zhou Yin heard the movement, turned around, and saw that it was Zhao Gao, hurriedly got up, and bowed respectfully.

"Zhou Yin has seen Mr. Zhao......"

Seeing that Zhou Yin was doing this again, Zhao Gao waved his hand, and the corners of his cold and hard mouth pulled out a stiff smile slightly.

"Mr. Zhou, how many times have I said that we are both stewards in this workshop, you don't need to be so polite......"

Zhou Yin shook his head and insisted.

"Before Zhou came to Qiong, my brother Zeng Er mentioned the face and told him again and again, saying that Mr. Zhao is a great talent, who has been the order of His Majesty's Zhongche government, and has dealt with the government for many years, and has never made mistakes or omissions, and is the real talent of the country, not my little cleverness can look at the back of his neck, let me go to the place, I must take Zhao as the main thing in everything, and perform the disciple's gift in front of Mr. ......"

Zhao Gao knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he could only smile bitterly and shake his head. walked straight over and looked at a few extremely finely drawn tables in front of Zhou Yin.

"How's it going?"

At the mention of this, Zhou Yin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he came to his senses.

"Mr. Hui, today I have done a total of thirty-six proportioning experiments in order according to His Highness's instructions, among which the ninth pot has the best effect - sir, come and take a look......"

As he spoke, Zhou Yin took Zhao Gao to the front of the No. 9 pot he was talking about, reached out and pulled out a steel long sword that had just been quenched in the pot from several blacksmiths, and handed it to Zhao Gao.

"Look, sir—"

Zhao Gao himself is a famous swordsman in the world, the sword on his waist is also a bronze sword given by the first emperor himself, his vision is naturally not ordinary, this sword cast by steel, as soon as he starts it, he can't help but be shocked. (End of chapter)
