Chapter 331 The Adventures of the Magistrate

Wang Yue saw that the matter had been settled, and he didn't make too much entanglement. Although the capital was prosperous, it didn't attract him much. For him, it was the same everywhere.

After Wang Yue returned home, she told Minglan about the situation. Minglan knew that Wang Yue was going to Quanzhou to be the county magistrate, so she subconsciously thought that Wang Yue had been demoted, but when she thought about it carefully, it seemed that she hadn't.

Wang Yue saw that Minglan was suspicious, so he patiently explained to him the reason for going to Quanzhou to be the county magistrate.

After Minglan heard this, she was still a little worried. It would be quieter for them to hide in Quanzhou, but their parents, her sister yesterday, and her younger brother were all still in Tokyo.

Seeing Minglan's worried look, she smiled and comforted her, "You also know how powerful my Taolin is. I'll keep a few female guards by your grandmother's side. If anything happens, let your grandmother and Xiaoniang together Hide in the peach grove."

Minglan thought for a while and found it very reasonable, so she said with a smile, "What Lang Jun thinks is thoughtfulness, I don't need to worry about it, so I'll make preparations, after all, this trip may last for many years."

On the day of Xiumu, Wang Yue and Minglan went back to Sheng's house. First, they sat with Sheng Hong for a while. After learning that Wang Yue was about to go to Quanzhou to be the county magistrate, he told Wang Yue about his political affairs. The experience has benefited Wang Yue a lot. There is still a big difference between managing a country and managing a magistrate. Sheng Hong's experience is still of reference value.

Sheng Hong, who was a rare teacher for a while, held Wang Yue and talked for a long time. When it was getting late, he finally stopped talking, and then let Wang Yue go to the inner courtyard to pay his respects to the old lady.

……

Wang Yue and Wang Anshi went south together. When passing through Suzhou, Wang's father and mother went home. They didn't want to go to Quanzhou, a place where birds don't shit, even if they were with their son. Of course, if Ming Lan was pregnant, That's another story.

Wang Anshi first took Wang Yue to stay in Fujian Lufu Yamen for a few days, and got to know all the adults, and then let Wang Yue take Minglan to Quanzhou.

Wang Anshi's operation made the well-informed Quanzhou officials know that Wang Yue's backstage is quite strong, and they dare not neglect at all.

This is what the old fox Wang Anshi did on purpose. After all, he and Wang Yue are newcomers. It is definitely unrealistic for him to reform the entire Fujian Road immediately.However, if he gives Wang Yue a platform so that Wang Yue can make a big impact in Quanzhou's reforms, it will be much easier for him to break the surface.

After Wang Yue took office, Ye was busy with government affairs, left some guards at the county government office, and arranged a few female guards to help Minglan take care of the backyard.And he himself took a few entourages and began to visit around Quanzhou.

In fact, there are many specialties in Quanzhou, and there is also a natural port. Wang Yue has an inn and a caravan, and he has already established a layout here.

Now that Wang Yuelai is the county magistrate, with the assistance of his own people, he has a quick understanding of the local situation.

Wang Yue, who was confident in his heart, returned to the county government office and took out the official imperial decree, directly announcing the implementation of the Fangtian Average Tax Law.He began to follow the agreement with Wang Anshi, ordered to clear the land, verify the land owner, and collect the land tax by grade.

This affected the interests of the local gentry and aristocrats, but these people could only do nothing to stop them. Although there were people in Fujian Road, Wang Yue didn't buy it at all, and Wang Anshi, the highest official of Fujian Road, was backing them. They could only watch Wang Yue carry out the decree.

It's just that rabbits bite people when they are in a hurry, let alone people, let alone gentry who are concerned with their own interests.

So, on a dark and windy night of one month, a group of strongmen attacked Wang Yue's county government, and Wang Yue, who had been prepared for a long time, took them all down. nothing.

After Wang Yue interrogated and got the evidence, he only withheld the people and the evidence, but didn't attack immediately. Instead, he asked these people to cooperate with Wang Yue's policy. If they were honest, when Wang Yue left office, the evidence would be will pay them back.

With the chance of survival given by Wang Yue, this most difficult decree, with the cooperation of Quanzhou gentry, quickly completed all the work.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yue implemented the Young Crop Law and the Immunization Law and other laws and regulations.It's just that Wang Yue was very flexible when implementing the policy. He first set up a city exchange bureau in Quanzhou County, paid for the purchase of unsalable goods in Quanzhou, and then set up a shipping office, which was resident in the capital city of Luzhou, Fujian, and sold Quanzhou's special products. It is sold to the state capital in an official form, and the escorts in the middle are executed in the form of corvee, and no fixed manpower is recruited.

There are really a lot of goods. These two new errands not only sell local specialties to other places, but also transport foreign goods to the local area. This requires a lot of manpower, which directly led to these two yamen, which took up a lot of corvees. .

Just when Quanzhou wanted to see Wang Yue's jokes and see how Wang Yue solved the problem of farmland water conservancy without serving corvees, Wang Yue used the profits earned by the Municipal Bureau of Exchanges to use part of the money to recruit people to repair water conservancy and reclamation land.

This will of course lead to many people suing, but with Wang Anshi under pressure, Wang Yue is playing with the wind.

Following Wang Yue's implementation of some revised decrees that did not harm farmers, those gentry who were caught by Wang Yue remained silent and cooperated obediently. Quanzhou's reforms soon achieved results.

However, the gentry businessmen who were not caught couldn't bear it anymore. They hated Wang Yue so much that they felt that Wang Yue simply wouldn't let them pass by, so Wang Yue was assassinated again.

However, this time Wang Yue didn't let it go so lightly. He arrested many people without mercy, and reported them to the police after interrogation.

It was approved again soon, and the heads of Quanzhou were pouring down for a while, and no one dared to have any ideas anymore.

After two adventures of the county magistrate, Quanzhou has stabilized a lot. In just over a year, the taxes paid by Wang Yue have increased several times, and the people of Quanzhou have become much richer.

After all, the corvee workers in the government caravan formed by Wang Yue more or less brought some back from other places to sell. Wang Yue also ordered the people below to turn a blind eye to the corvee they served. Not bad.

Because of Wang Yue's secret caravan, he often came to Quanzhou to transport some special products to all parts of the country, even overseas, and brought some special products from various places to Quanzhou for sale, which led to the prosperity of Quanzhou's business.

And the water conservancy construction in the past year has also been very smooth. After all, it is a contractor with money, not a natural worker with no money. The speed of water construction and land reclamation is very fast.

Wang Yue was busy with government affairs this year in Quanzhou, but he did not delay the birth of a child, and Xiao Tuantuan was born during this time.

After Quanzhou's affairs were straightened out, he returned to his status as a salted fish. He handled some official duties easily all day long, so he began to accompany his wife to play with his children, and occasionally visited the scenery of Quanzhou together.

When Wang Yue was enjoying leisurely, Wang Anshi saw that Wang Yue was very effective in Quanzhou, so he subconsciously wanted to copy Quanzhou's actions directly.

When Wang Yue came back from a trip and got the news, the decree on Fujian Road had already been implemented.

This is a land of one mansion, which is very different from the situation in Wang Yue's county. Wang Anshi thought that many people would support him when he saw the benefits, but he didn't expect that many people wanted to take benefits, but they were unwilling to offend others. .

Therefore, Wang Anshi's decree has brought great benefits to Fujian Road. The two departments established, based on the Quanzhou Yamen, have expanded several times.

It's just that some of the gentry and businessmen who were hurt had their backgrounds, and their backgrounds in Tokyo quickly put pressure on Wang Anshi.

Not long after, the officials were overwhelmed by the disturbance and wanted to know the real situation in Quanzhou, so they called Wang Anshi and Wang Yue back to Tokyo to report on his duties.

……

On the way back to Beijing, Wang Yue asked speechlessly, "Uncle Shi, why are you so impatient. You should be the last to implement the decree on equal tax in Fangtian."

Wang Anshi was very stubborn. He said firmly, "The gentry in Quanzhou can suffer some losses, why can't the gentry in Fujian Road? After the decree goes down, they will benefit me."

Wang Yue patted his head, wordlessly pulled out a pile of evidence from the baggage, and handed it to Wang Anshi helplessly. After seeing Wang Anshi took it, he said depressedly, "The reason why the gentry in Quanzhou are so honest is that because this."

Wang Anshi took it suspiciously, glanced at it, and then widened his eyes. He asked in disbelief, "These people are too daring, dare to assassinate court officials?"

Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "You don't have to act with me. You have been an official for so many years, don't you know?"

Wang Anshi saw that Wang Yue was not easy to fool, so he said helplessly, "I also heard about the Quanzhou assassination, but you didn't report it, so I thought it was not serious. Besides, I was ready, but those people are too cunning Don't do it."

Wang Yue also sighed, and then said, "The health of the official family is getting worse day by day, and the struggle in Tokyo is becoming more and more intense. It is understandable for the official family to want to be more stable at this time."

Wang Anshi also sighed, and he said very distressed, "How could I not know, but the officials supported the reform, and I wanted to make some achievements while the officials were still in charge, so that I could Let the country become stronger earlier, and secondly, let the housekeeper make a final decision and make sure that the reform can go on. After all, no matter who the two princes in Tokyo and those clans take the throne, they will definitely maintain stability and cannot support it. We have to, in that case, we don’t know how many years we will have to wait.”

After hearing Wang Anshi's words, Wang Yue really wanted to tell him that the next emperor would be his little fanboy who supported his reforms very much.

However, Wang Yue looked at Wang Anshi, who had already had a lot of gray hair for more than a year, and he couldn't bear to say it. After all, it would take several years, and he was really afraid of hitting this stubborn man.
