Chapter 779 Big Light Bulb

Zhang Ren, the governor of Guangxi, came to Nanning in person, nominally to inspect the expansion of the Nanning River Port, but in fact, his purpose can be guessed by everyone in Guangxi, and it must be to welcome the high press station who returned from the great victory.

After all, the governor is the nominal superior of the governor. Generally speaking, when the governor takes office, it is already very polite for the governor to come out to greet him. It is obviously an exception to run nearly a thousand miles to greet him like this.

But Zhang Ren felt that it was indeed worth making an exception for him to be highly pragmatic.

Since this person took office, he hasn't caused him any trouble, and he has solved a long list of troubles for him. Not only that, he even saved his life.

Now, he has made great contributions to the imperial court again, helping the emperor to recover the "Nine Generations' Vengeance", and the country's prestige has been greatly boosted!

So why can't he greet him personally?
Of course, the inspection of Nanning River Port is not purely a show, it is indeed a major event that needs to be paid attention to.

This matter is still related to Gao Pressai: in his grand plan to revitalize Guangxi's economy, the most critical transportation node is Nanning, where the left and right rivers meet.Zhang Ren, as the governor, of course has to care.

However, these can be skipped, let’s just say that after Zhang Ren led a large number of Guangxi officials to welcome Gao Yushi, he first went to Nanning City to hold a banquet to celebrate his victory, and then invited Gao Yushi to Qingxiu Mountain, the most scenic place in Nanning. , Said that Gao has been in Guangxi for nearly a year, and has been very busy. Now that everything is in order, it is time to rest for a few days.

All Guangxi local officials were not included in Zhang Futai's invitation, except for Huang Zhiting who accompanied him all the way to see him off.

Zhang Ren didn't know the personal relationship between Gao Wushi and Huang Zhiting at first, he only knew that the two had traveled together for half of Guangxi, and later Huang Zhiting and even Huang's chieftain became Gao's hardcore thugs inexplicably.

At that time, Zhang Ren only thought that Gao Yantai was a noble character, and he influenced the rebellious chieftains. When he met Huang Zhiting this time, he realized that the situation seemed to be more complicated. Besides, she couldn't tolerate other people at all, and even when she talked to her as the governor, her reaction was often a bit slow, but as soon as Gao Wushi spoke, she immediately concentrated on it, and she couldn't bear to blink her eyes.

There are more than fifty people in Zhang Futai, if there is still no clue, it can only be said that he is blind.However, he took a little look at the two of them, but he had to nod, they were really a perfect match.

If there is any regret, it is that there is indeed a gap between the family backgrounds of the two parties.

Huang's chieftain, if you really want to talk about history, of course it is quite good, and it has a longer history than Gao's family.But in terms of family background, we can't just talk about history, but also look at the height of the family.

The Gao family is a school of practical learning, not only "my family's official" (Gao Gong's language), but also the family of two generations of great Confucianism—well, now Gao Qiuzhen is afraid that he will also be smeared with the word "great Confucianism", then It is the great Confucianism of the three generations.

This is not terrible, this is too great!

In Ming Dynasty, being rich certainly wasn’t considered honorable, even Shixun wasn’t considered honorable, only great Confucian scholars were truly honorable—scholars look up to them, and the world respects them.

Just like Yang Shen, who was assigned to Yunnan in those days, an article he wrote would be spread all over the world immediately. As long as scholars can read his new work sooner, they will be complacent and look forward to it.

This is called great Confucianism, and this is called honor.

Shen Wansan was also rich in the past, which scholar takes him seriously?Now princes are also noble, how many scholars will admire them?

But Zhang Ren knows that even if Gao Yushi resigns from office and returns home with a crown, any scholar in the world will take the initiative to salute him when he sees him, and respect him with "high six poems".

In the Ming Dynasty, only the status of scholars was the decisive factor in judging whether they were honorable or not.

As for the position of Gao Yantai, it is really far from heaven...

But Zhang Ren can think about it in his heart. He is an outsider, but he can't intervene in this matter.What's more, he invited Gao Yushi to reward Qingxiu Mountain, not because of these nosy matters, but because he wanted to ask Guangxi what to do next.

Ask, really ask.

He has seen enough of high-level practical means, but other aspects are easy to talk about. There is only one thing he has to be willing to admit defeat, which is the "economy" that the Practical School has often talked about in recent years.

The word "economy", before Gao Wushi's fame became popular in the world, was generally explained as "economics for the people", and the name of Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty in the past, came from this.

But after the word "Gao Longwen" resounded throughout the world, the word "economy" was given a new meaning.

According to Gao Yushi himself, the so-called economy is to create more abundant materials and distribute them in a better way.He even went a step further and said: Economics is the foundation and key goal of practical studies.

In fact, this has brought practical learning to a new stage of development, and Zhang Ren is a little vague.

Zhang Ren is not completely unfamiliar with the theory of real learning—it is not unusual for Confucians in this era, people of the real school to know the views of the mind school, and people of the mind school to know the views of the real school.

But even Gao Gong would spend time talking about connotations and relationships such as "qi" and "reason" when he was teaching practical studies. Only Gao Gong did not talk about qi or reasoning, and he almost only talked about "economy". .

Not only talking about it, but also putting it into practice and setting an example in person—Jinghua is the result of his practice.

It has only been ten years since the rise of Jinghua, but now it is probably strong enough to rival the Yangzhou Salt Merchant Group. This is a well-known fact.

In Gengchenke's policy theory, everyone has seen the number one scholar who attributed all the ills of the world to "poor" (the number one scholar must be released to the world to show fairness), and Zhang Ren was not originally from the real school Officials, but now more and more feel that the high pragmatic point of view is justified.

The Confucians at this time had not completely become the cynics of the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Ren felt that what Gao Yushi said was reasonable, so he began to ponder the truth. Sex writes the best footnotes.

Therefore, Zhang Ren would like to ask Gao Yushi how to carry out this "economy" in Guangxi.

Zhang Ren regarded this matter as "discussion", so he chose a place like Qingxiu Mountain.Although there is no later scenic spot "Taying Tianchi" here - that tower is an ancient pagoda in later generations, but in fact it was built in the 46th year of Wanli and does not exist now - but "Tianchi" is still there.

Moreover, there was a wealthy businessman in Nanning who used to live in a courtyard by the Tianchi Lake in Qingxiu Mountain. Although it was not that big for Gao Pragmatic, who was used to the "worldly situation" at this time, it was enough to accommodate 200 people to live in it.

However, this wealthy businessman fell into disrepair later, and Tianchi Bieyuan became a land of no owner. Since it was at the corner of Nanning city, and no bandits dared to occupy it, it somehow became the "property" of Nanning Prefecture. Naturally, Zhang Ren could I borrowed it.

When Zhang Ren settled down and was going to talk to Gao Pragmatically, he heard from the servants that Gao Yantai and Miss Huang had taken people to visit the mountains.

Zhang Ren didn't want to be an eyesore at first, but Gao Yushi's tenure was short, and it was hard to create such an environment suitable for discussing Taoism. It's not the way not to disturb, so he just smiled wryly and said to himself: "It seems that the old man has to be a superfluous person. "

Asking again, it turns out that Gao Wushi and his party went to Fenghuang Ridge, so they rushed there with their people.

According to ancient legends, the phoenix in "Fengqiwu" is located in Yongzhou, that is, Nanning. Therefore, there are many place names related to phoenix in Nanning, and Fenghuangling must be one of them.

When Zhang Ren arrived, he didn't see anything unsuitable for children. Dozens of Gao family members and a considerable number of Siming wolf soldiers followed, how could it be inappropriate?Gao Wushi and Huang Zhiting were on the top of the mountain, facing the late spring mountain wind, pointing down the mountain, talking and laughing.

Seeing Zhang Ren running here without hesitation, the two seemed a little surprised, but they still came to greet him hand in hand.

"I'm not going to accompany you first, I'm disturbing the two of you." Zhang Ren said with a smile.

It's okay for the two to chat, and then Gao Wushi asked Zhang Ren's reason for coming.

Zhang Ren didn't like to come up and talk about business, so he said that he also came to see the scenery. He said that the scenery here is beautiful, and it is the place where literati should come.

Of course Gao Yushi knew that he was talking nonsense, but as a literati, sometimes you have to pretend to be romantic if you are not romantic, so he smiled and said: "Since Futai has a taste for elegance, why not write a poem, so that it can be kept as a memorial for future generations. ?”

Zhang Ren didn't expect that he could clearly see his intentions, but he really followed his own words. He couldn't refuse, so he looked around and said: "The four seasons of Qingshan are never old, and the wanderer Tianya feels the spring is good. I bring you Spring is coming up the mountain, and the mountain flowers are blooming in spring.”

Then he smiled and sighed, and said: "I haven't written poetry for a long time, and I'm very unfamiliar with it. You should come to the truth about this matter. With your literary name, if you leave a poem here, it can be regarded as a memorial for future generations." Say." After saying that, he made a "please" gesture.

Gao Wushi glanced at Huang Zhiting, and saw that she was also looking at him eagerly, as if... had ulterior motives.

With a move in my heart, I guessed her little thought, couldn't help laughing, and stopped refusing, walked to a place overlooking Nanning City, pondered for a while, and read: "

The fish in the bright mirror of Tianchi sinks into the abyss, and the jasper cranes in the mountains are in the sky.

Viewing flowers and clouds in Songhai, flying waterfalls, flowing fragrance and moon hazy.

Where is the phoenix inhabited by the phoenix tree, and where the Yongcheng embraces the two dragons.

There are many malaria in the south of Mo Dao Ling, and the boundless beauty lies on the dangerous peak. "

Huang Zhiting was still pondering the meaning of this poem, Zhang Ren had already laughed, and said: "What a 'Mo Dao Lingnan is full of miasma, and the boundless beauty is on the dangerous peak'. Seeking the truth, young people have ambitions, talents and learning, and they should appreciate the beauty of the dangerous peak!"

After a pause, he said again: "Yong City is the ancient name of Nanning. The ancients said that the place where the phoenix inhabits Wu is in Yongcheng. 'Lan Erlong' must mean that the left and right rivers converge in Nanning? Well, it is also a good sentence, but ...This 'Flying Waterfall and Flowing Fragrance' refers to that scene, but the old man is very ignorant."

Gao Wushi chuckled, but didn't answer, and looked towards Huang Zhiting.

Huang Zhiting was a little confused at first, so she suddenly felt lucky, thinking of the day when she and "Zhang Buxu" were in the pool, and was washed into the underground river by the torrent of the waterfall, she suddenly understood.Thinking of how poorly he had seen that day, and how much he had seen, he couldn't help but blush.

Is the boundless beauty you mentioned really in the dangerous peak?
Isn't it the night of "flying waterfalls and flowing fragrance"? ——
