What to do with a full-scale life

Chapter 605
Brother Zhang's style is too stable. He didn't do anything in the first month of his tenure. He just squatted in the yamen all day long. No one knew what he was doing outside. Some daily affairs were done by his team. Daily care.

The news naturally reached Zhao Zhen's ears. That day he was playing chess with Wang Anshi who was still in mourning in the garden, and happened to talk about Brother Zhang, a fool.

The reason why Wang Anshi was able to enter Beijing ahead of schedule this time was precisely because Zhao Zhen felt that Wang Anshi's new policy was imminent after this round of setbacks, so he used this well-known thorn in his hand.

And when Zhao Zhen mentioned what the idiot did when he was in office these days, Wang Anshi said indifferently: "I think the idiot you said is a good official. Because the new official took office three times. Huo, it also needs to be familiar with the way of officialdom. The children of seventeen or eighteen suddenly become parents and officials in any place. Let alone whether there is a way to be an official in the book of sages, even the local customs and customs will take a while to recuperate. Like others, he also took office three times, so it is not so much governance as it is to show off the prestige at that time."

After Zhao Zhen heard it, he suddenly became enlightened: "If that's the case, at his age, he is too stable."

"Don't worry about the officials, just wait for the time."

At this moment, Zhao Rong's court lady Ruyi hurried over and saluted, "Officials... the princess lost her temper again, smashed the bowls and chopsticks for eating, and coughed up blood."

When Zhao Zhen heard this, he became anxious, and quickly got up and followed Ruyi to Zhao Rong's bedroom. After passing by, he saw Zhao Rong lying on the bed, looking so angry that it made people feel distressed.

Zhao Zhen looked at the bowls and chopsticks that had been thrown on the ground, but when he lifted his nose and smelled the smell of boiled eggs filled with glutinous glutinous rice and brown sugar, Zhao Zhen felt helpless looking at this well-behaved daughter who lost her temper eight times a day .

"Where did this blood come from?"

"Oh...I'm going to die...Oh..." Zhao Rong moaned in pain on the bed.

And Zhao Zhen rummaged around, and found a small bottle on the floor beside Zhao Rong's bed. After opening it and smelling it, it was filled with water made from rouge. The color of the blood was exactly the same.

As an emperor, he should be angry, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor, but as a father, he can only lament that his daughter is getting more and more naughty.But for the sake of his dignity, he just gently put the fake jar aside, sat there and asked softly: "You want to leave the palace that much?"

Zhao Rong didn't answer, just kept coughing, looking like she was going to die.

"I'm ready."

Zhao Rong didn't react at first, and still coughed a few times in a hypocritical manner, until Zhao Zhen said again: "Go and find that silly brother."

Hearing this, Zhao Rong suddenly sat up from the bed: "Really!?"

Seeing her like this, Zhao Zhen didn't want to talk anymore, just flicked her on the forehead, and then left with his hands behind his back.

But Zhao Rong is still very young now, she didn't realize her father's loss at this moment, but lifted the blanket on her body and cheered, and then began to make preparations for leaving the palace.

"Ruyi, what do you think I will do after I go, or I will be a catcher. I have always wanted to be a catcher, to punish evil and promote good!"

The palace lady just apologized and laughed.

And at this moment, Brother Zhang finally came out of customs. The first thing he did was to ask the county magistrate to call over the leaders of several wealthy merchants in Yuhang County. The small county magistrate, isn't that the son of Lao Zhang, a poor man in the county?

So they came here infrequently, but when they came, they were fine, and they couldn't go back...

Because Brother Zhang spent a whole month sorting out all the past files accumulated in the county, and picked out all the unjust, false and wrong cases in it, and almost all of them were related to these wealthy businessmen in the county. He asked these people to come Just to make them fall into the trap.

All of a sudden, he detained more than half of the large and small industry businessmen in the county, and then Brother Zhang didn't talk nonsense at all, and went straight to the trial. Of the 37 people, 28 were sentenced on the spot.

The result of the verdict is also simple, that is, the family property was confiscated and the land was returned to the public. Although the remaining nine were not sentenced immediately, they obediently handed over their fields in the county after a conversation.

And this time, Brother Zhang has stabbed a hornet's nest. None of them wealthy businessmen have intertwined relationships. Of course, they can't be convinced, so they plan to go straight to the capital the next day to find someone to deal with this sesame official.

But I didn't expect that on this night, a group of fast horses had galloped out of Yuhang County, and went to Lin'an ahead of time with the tangible evidence sorted out by Brother Zhang.

Almost overnight, Yuhang County changed. If someone else did this, there would be a mutiny in the county within three days, but the problem was that Brother Zhang posted a notice at the city gate early the next morning, and then It is to distribute the fields.

It’s just that most of the people in the county are illiterate, so Brother Zhang simply found a chief to bring people over there to read aloud repeatedly, which means that the land collected from Yuhang County will be distributed to the people who don’t have land according to their heads. It's just that these people don't have the right to buy and sell, but only have the right to use it. Except for the agricultural tax, the rest of the food they grow belongs to the individual. If no tax is collected for a day, all the food will be owned by the people.

Word of mouth is the fastest way to spread some things. That afternoon, there was a long queue of people queuing up at the gate of the yamen to claim the land. In theory, as long as the household registration is in Yuhang County, all people have a share, even if they have land but the number of acres does not meet the standard. Fields to get the mean.

As for those with more land, part of the land will be expropriated in a tax-free manner, and after receiving the land, the new regulations of Yuhang County have also come down. You also need to pay almost [-]% of the transaction tax.

Although there are still many loopholes here, Brother Zhang must ensure the stability of Yuhang County as soon as possible. As for the merchant, the merchant is the pig raised by the country, and now it is time to kill the pig.

Even so, the current Yuhang County is still in ruins, and the circulation of goods has gradually been hindered, but Brother Zhang is not in a hurry, because this place sits on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, although due to the chaos of the war, the Grand Canal is now almost full. No one uses it anymore, but the Grand Canal is still there.

Merchants, as long as they have enough money, they even dare to sell the hemp rope that hangs them.So Brother Zhang sent people to several other counties to negotiate and named it as investment attraction.

They can buy real estate in Yuhang but they cannot buy real estate, and they will be given quite generous discounts accordingly.

On the fifth day after the policy was issued, the whole county was discussing these matters, but the court became lively.

In the early morning of this day, Zhao Zhen received seven or eight impeachments about a small county magistrate, and without exception, they were all about that idiot. Zhao Zhen, who should have been irritable, was smiling at this moment, because he After two days, he knew the whole story, and even all the evidence and related laws were presented in front of him.

Let's not talk about whether the idiot is fierce or not, just talk about his meticulousness. He really doesn't look like a young man in his teens at all. What will be done, the main focus is to be watertight.

And this guy is also the real culprit. He really doesn't care about the local tyrants at all, and directly uses the troops from the capital to suppress them.

What's even more outrageous is that during his one-month retreat, even the follow-up solutions were prepared, and they were all placed on Zhao Zhen's desk together.What's more, what he wrote is also interesting, that is, he completely abandons the writing style of written articles, and uses a rigid and serious but concise style of writing, one by one is clearly sorted out, which can be said to be a complete homework.

After Zhao Zhen got it, he showed it to Wang Anshi as soon as he got it. Wang Anshi was even a little surprised after reading it, because many things here were advocated in his New Deal, but the problem is that he knows that his New Deal will definitely be implemented. It was a bloody storm, but the things written by this idiot in the mouth of the official are full of four or two thousand pounds, and even put forward a very new thing, that is, urban and rural game theory, which advocates encircling the city with the countryside and combining industry and agriculture. into two complementary domains.

After Wang Anshi got what Brother Zhang had written, he studied it all night. He slapped his thighs and called out to Heavenly Wizards fifteen times. He pinched and broke eighty beards because he was wondering "Is this possible?"

In fact, Wang Anshi has already regarded this idiot appointed by the emperor as one of his own. As for the people below who want to impeach him?dream!
Sure enough, at this time Wang Anshi was the first to stand up and start a verbal war against Confucians, and then the conservative faction headed by Ouyang Xiu on the opposite side began to debate with Wang Anshi.

Everyone is a big boss, so the debate is naturally fierce and classic.

Conservatives advocate that the law of the ancestors is immutable, while reformers naturally have their own theoretical support. In the end, they left the final decision to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen smiled and asked people to tell them the evidence at hand. After Ouyang Xiu and others saw it, their faces flushed with shame immediately.

"The Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai, the third division has gone to Yuhang for verification, and everything is subject to the third division's verification." After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he coughed lightly, and the eunuch below sang "Back to the court", and then Zhao Zhen slowly left the dragon chair, turned and left.

Not long after he left, the officials also left, but only Wang Anshi was admitted by Zhao Zhenxuan. The two walked on the road in the garden. ah."

"Officials, the idiot you mentioned, I think it is a rare talent that needs to be cultivated."

"Well, although he is a fool, he is indeed a watertight person in his work, and he does not look like a teenager. Jiefu, how do you think he compares with when you were young?"

"I'm not as good as a minister."

Wang Anshi is not modest. Looking back, he has been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years, and he only knows how to drill forward. How can he be so thoughtful and impeccable.

Look at what this kid has done, although it is only a small county, but judging by his wrist and courage, how can one think that this is the first time for a new imperial examination candidate to become an official.

"I plan to keep him down." Zhao Zhen sighed with his hands behind his back: "I don't know how long I can live, I can't hand over a mess to my grandchildren. I want to see if his method works, see if it works Let Da Song regroup and stop relying on others."

"The official is wise."

"It's not wise, it's just that I know that I'm a mediocre talent, and I can't compare with you geniuses, so let you show your strength."

But at this moment, a carriage had slowly stopped at the city gate of Yuhang, and the curtain of the carriage was raised, revealing a young and delicate face, she stared around with big eyes, as if she was very curious about everything.

"Your Highness, we are here."

"Don't call me Your Highness outside, just call me Miss."

Zhao Rong said to the maid: "This is the place where Zhang's elder brother became an official. It's so small..."

After the turmoil of the previous few days, the business here has not fully recovered, so the road is a bit sparse, and their carriage slowly drove into the county. Because there are only a few thousand households, the place is not big.

Not long after entering, Zhao Rong saw a man standing in front of a house, surrounded by a few people who looked like craftsmen, they were holding a piece of paper, and they seemed to be talking about something.

Zhao Rong's eyes were good, and she saw at a glance that the young man in the middle was her brother Zhang, so she hurriedly called to stop the carriage, and with the help of the maid, she trotted all the way to Brother Zhang's side.

"Brother Zhang!"

Zhao Rong was young and had a crisp voice. Zhang Ge immediately turned his head when he heard it. When he saw that it was Zhao Rong, he was also a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

"I'm hungry... I'm going to die if I don't eat any more of your cooking!"

The little girl is acting like a baby, Brother Zhang has nothing to do, he can only put down the blueprint in his hand and say, "Then I will cook for you."

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Rong cheered, and on the way back she asked, "Brother Zhang, what are you doing?"

"Prepare to make coke, and then plan to make steel." Brother Zhang smiled: "I want to speed up the technology tree."

Zhao Rong has long been used to the strange words he always pops up out of nowhere: "Do you know how to make steel?"

"Well, a little bit." Brother Zhang turned his head and pointed to the [-]-acre open space not far away: "I plan to build an industrial park in this area, and it will be put into production in a year or two."

Zhao Rong looked at Zhang Ge with admiration in her eyes: "It's amazing..."

"However, I have to collect a batch of good breeding pigs during this time. I plan to breed them for a few years and improve the meat yield." Brother Zhang said and pulled out a long list from his arms: "There are still many things to do... "
