Old Zheng Tou frowned and said, "Fan Zong, what's going on?" ”

Fan Zong carefully read the original recital, and finally picked out the part about the stove in Chen Hua's recital.

When everyone heard that these hard-working people could also participate in the negotiation of the salt price, they suddenly looked at Chen Hua in disbelief.

Because everybody knows what that means.

That is to say, after having the pricing power, although they are still constrained by the imperial court and merchants, and cannot raise the price of salt unscrupulously, they have a voice channel after all, and compared with the double oppression of the imperial court and the salt tyrant before, the situation is not much better.

Moreover, in Xu He's vision, because the people who participated in the negotiation of salt prices would be elected once every three years, the stove leaders would form their own organizations similar to the [trade unions] of later generations under the new armor protection system.

This organization is a spontaneous organization specifically for the protection of the rights and interests of the stoves, the stoves are elected every three years, and there is a supervision of the imperial court to patrol the salt imperial history, in order to prevent the collusion between the salt imperial history and the emerging rich households in the stove, the salt patrol imperial history should be drawn from other places, and the local imperial history should not be used.

It can be said that, to a certain extent, Xu He's method avoided the birth of a new salt tyrant in the stove.

After Fan Zong finished speaking, the tense atmosphere that had just been tense suddenly disappeared.

Everyone knew that if the new salt law could be implemented, the days when their ancestors had been oppressed for generations would be gone.

Including Wang Zhu'er, especially the young people, their eyes at Chen Hua were much gentler.

Lao Zheng shook his head to the ground and choked up: "Lord Chen is really a parent official given to us by God!" ”

Chen Hua was ashamed and said: "These are not the ideas of this official, but the methods of Xu Gongzi, you thank me, I am really ashamed!" ”

"What?"

"Is that him?"

"He can come up with such a great idea at such a young age?"

Everyone looked at Xu He in disbelief.

Xu He smiled and said to Chen Hua: "Lord Chen, this performance is the result of a discussion between the two of us, and Xu He doesn't dare to be self-contained. ”

Then, he turned his head to the crowd and said, "If you are willing to believe me and Master Chen during the day, then I will also dig out my heart to say a few words to everyone!" ”

When all the people in the room heard this, they fell silent.

Xu He said in a deep voice: "Lord Chen is the commander of Hailing County, so he didn't have to worry about it, and he couldn't interfere in the affairs of the salt farm, but he still came resolutely, may I ask everyone, why is this?" ”

The crowd was silent.

Xu He said: "Because Lord Chen is a good official, he can't bear to be wronged, and he will be suppressed by the soldiers, and when the time comes, Lord Chen, as the party appointed by the imperial court to guard the pastor, feels ashamed!" ”

When everyone heard this, they looked at Chen Hua's eyes and suddenly softened, and asked themselves, it is true, the salt farm is under the jurisdiction of the Salt Division, and there is no subordinate relationship with the local government, Chen Hua can obviously sit high in the lobby of Hailing County, regardless of everyone's life and death.

Then he came here to take risks, it must be for everyone's sake!

Chen Hua was wrapped in everyone's gentle gaze, and suddenly felt that his image was magnificent, and he couldn't help but straighten his chest!

Xu He continued: "Also, I have one thing to say, Lord Chen is only a Qipin county order, and he is just a small official in the imperial court......

Chen Hua, who felt that he was very remarkable just now, immediately shrunk his neck when he heard this: "What's the matter! ”

"The transcript he handed over, whether the court adopts it or not, it depends on the results of the discussion between His Majesty the Emperor and the ministers of the court, and even if it is adopted, it cannot be achieved overnight, I hope everyone can understand!"

In fact, the stoves are not stupid, of course they know that the court has used the Kaizhong Law for more than 100 years, how could it be that it was immediately changed because of a seven-grade county order?

But everyone is still willing to believe Chen Hua, why is this?

Because the cooks are too bitter, they look forward to the day when someone can help them talk, even if it is useless, but that is also hope, it is better than the ancestors, generation after generation of desperate life, right?

"Lord Chen, Xu Gongzi, we understand, don't worry, what we want is an attitude of the imperial court, we are also human beings, not beasts, we can't press our lives on this salt field and can't turn over, you must always give us some hope, right?" Lao Zheng nodded and said on behalf of everyone, "Even if it's really useless at that time, none of us will blame the two of us!" ”

Xu He nodded: "There is a third point, don't you want to send someone to follow Lord Chen's subordinates and deliver the book to the post station together?" Did you elect it? We set off overnight and arrived in Beijing one day earlier, so that everyone's safety could be ensured one day earlier. ”

Lao Zheng Tou turned his head to look at it, and nodded Ding Erxiaodao: "Erxiao, you do things calmly and properly, so you can follow Lord Chen's entourage to the post station!" ”

When Chen Hua heard this, he took out the guard of the county order from his arms and covered it on the notebook, and then called his subordinates and asked him to take the notebook and set off immediately with Ding Erxiao.

Ding Er said: "Uncle, don't worry, I want to leave, no matter how many soldiers are around, they can't stop me!" ”

After speaking, he left with that Chen Hua's subordinate.

After they left, Xu He turned to Wang Zhu'er and said, "Brother Zhu'er, are you not worried that Lord Chen will go to find those officials and soldiers of the imperial court?" ”

Wang Zhu'er snorted, turned his head and didn't look at Xu He, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Xu He didn't care about his attitude, joking, at this time, all the people present may believe that Chen Hua will not harm them, but after all, they don't want to give up the only bargaining chip in their hands.

But the question is, if Chen Hua doesn't go, who will?

As an official of the imperial court, Chen Hua's speech will naturally be taken seriously, and it is useless for them to go to the stoves in the tea field, maybe the court officials and soldiers will detain them as bandits.

Xu He smiled, nodded his nose and said, "If everyone believes me, why don't I go on behalf of Lord Chen?" ”

"You?"

"Is it useful for you to go?"

"A young man who hasn't grown any hair, don't be killed as a bandit after you go!"

Chen Hua was also anxious: "Young Master Xu, I don't know who led the troops this time, in case there is a little misunderstanding, this official ......"

Xu He smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, Lord Chen, you can write a letter and stamp it with the county magistrate and give it to me!" ”

Chen Hua still didn't feel at ease and said: "Don't be reckless......"

Xu He smiled and turned to Lao Zheng Tou and said, "One of the people I brought is my brother, can you let him accompany me?" ”

Lao Zheng nodded and motioned to Wang Zhu'er to pick up someone, and after a while, Xu Peng followed Wang Zhu'er over.

At this moment, a stove ran in panting, and said in shock: "Oh no, the officers and soldiers suddenly raised fire, and now they have come to the outside of the field and surrounded us!" ”

Wang Zhu'er was in a hurry, picked up the firewood knife in his hand and shouted: "It's too late, brothers, fight with them, and fight a bloody way for the old and weak women and children!" ”
