Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 502 To Zhang Haogu's relief, the students of Datong can also be alone!

"Yuansuke!"

Zhou Jinyong came to the interior affairs office quickly.

At this moment, Zhou Jinyong was also extremely excited. Not long ago, he got the news that maybe he was really going to be promoted to be the governor of Henan.

This is a second-rank senior member.

Zhou Jinyong was naturally very excited.

Before, when Tan Yong was promoted to governor of Shandong, Zhou Jinyong was very envious. After all, he and Tan Yong both came out of the first phase of Datong College.

Today, Tan Yongdu is already the governor of Shandong, and he is still a county magistrate.

However, his position is not something ordinary people can do.

This Yongding County is almost equivalent to a special economic zone in Ming Dynasty. Its status is respected. Being able to become a county magistrate here will definitely be reused in the future.

Zhou Jinyong wanted to say that he was always ready.

Not long ago, Zhang Haogu suddenly threw piles of Henan materials in front of Zhou Jinyong, asking Zhou Jinyong to read them carefully.

Zhou Jinyong also tacitly shared with Zhang Haogu, and he understood almost immediately that the governor of Henan Province would most likely fall on him.

"Guanhou (Zhou Jinyong's word) is here?"

Zhang Haogu smiled, called Zhou Jinyong to sit down and said, "Come on, sit down!"

One standing next to Zhang Haogu was Huang Zongxi, and the other was Zheng Hong. As for Gu Yanwu, who was still too young, although he had a brilliant performance, Zhang Haogu still threw him into Datong Academy to continue his studies.

Wait until you are admitted to the government office, and then consider a slight promotion.

You can't be promoted too quickly for a person, otherwise, it will easily cause trouble for you.

Zhou Jinyong stood in front of Zhang Haogu, but his attitude was very polite: "How dare students sit in front of the principal!"

"Sit down, sit down!"

Zhang Haogu said slowly: "Our Datong Academy doesn't have so many rules. The emperor doesn't care about his career when he hires people. He only cares about your political achievements. You have done well in Yongding County. How about the situation in Henan during this period? Do you know all about it?"

"The students probably know it!" Zhou Jinyong said quickly.

"Tell me and listen!" Zhang Haogu smiled, and said slowly: "Tell me your opinion, and then tell me your plan!"

Zhou Jinyong naturally understood that this was a unique assessment.

If he passed the assessment, the governor of Henan would naturally fall on his own head. If he failed the assessment, Zhang Haogu would probably have to find a new suitable candidate.

Zhou Jinyong pondered for a while, and continued: "Principal, Henan is the most suitable area for the new policy at present. Two years ago, the court abolished King Fu and King Lu, which also gave Henan a large area of ​​land. The court From this, the land was divided among the common people, but the state policy of the imperial court has not been fully implemented!"

Zhang Haogu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, glanced at Huang Zongxi and Zheng Hong and said, "Look, this is the government official from our Datong Academy, please listen carefully, think more, and Guanhou is too." I have been a county magistrate for several years, and this experience is much richer than yours!"

Huang Zongxi and Zheng Hong naturally understood that Zhang Haogu's intention of keeping them here was to have a good meeting with Zhou Jinyong, to strengthen mutual understanding, and to let them learn from experience.

"Nowadays, although the people in Henan have been allocated land, they are only individuals and do not have the power to fight against the clan. They cannot protect their land in the face of powerful gentry!"

Zhou Jinyong said slowly: "There is a phenomenon, I am going to go to Henan to investigate and investigate!"

"After some people allocated the land, they immediately turned around and gave the land deeds in their hands directly to the gentry and patriarch of the clan. There is a very important reason for this situation, that is, they are people with the same surname!"

"One of them is that the big family is extremely prestigious in the countryside, so that the people who had allocated the land thought that they dare not control the land, and honestly handed over the land to the big family!"

"Secondly, local hooligans and hooligans occupy a certain advantage in allocating land. When the imperial court allocates land, they make a sound that they want to form a farm and ask other people to take out the land honestly. After the farm is established, , without government officials, and without reporting to the government, thus completing the occupation of the land, this group of people organized a group of hooligans to bully other good people!"

"The last problem is that officials don't do anything. They watch the gentry divide up the land because the gentry give them money, and they also watch the bully cheat the people because the bully also gives them money!"

"After you go to Henan, what are you going to do!"

Zhang Haogu smiled and said.

Zhou Jinyong pondered for a moment, and continued: "In summary, there are two problems, but if you want to solve the problem, the solution is simple, that is to mobilize the masses!"

"First, there is no follow-up method for the land distribution in the imperial court. Even if the land allocated by the imperial court is quickly divided up by the gentry, then we must publicize the imperial court's policy on a large scale and encourage the common people to report People with a big surname, let the imperial court intervene, and strictly implement the law of dividing the family into the mother!"

"The autumn harvest season is coming soon, and the key is food. As long as we have the food and distribute it to the people, the people will naturally support the imperial government's policy, because we have provided food with real money. Let them survive the cold winter, and let them have seeds to plant in the next spring!"

"Secondly, the imperial court ignored the local ruffians. They merged the farms in the name of the imperial court, but they took the opportunity to embezzle the people's land. Then find out these local ruffian hooligans and punish them with death one by one, so that they can learn a lot. The majesty of the imperial court!"

"The third is the core of the problem!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Jinyong said slowly: "If the officials don't act, we must use the Ming law to deal with them. It is like the headmaster in Shandong, and like Shi Kefa in Shaanxi. Kill people and build power. What we want to win is the masses, not Bureaucrats are not gentry!"

Zhang Haogu smiled in relief.

I don't know why, but there is always a feeling that my own child has grown up.

Let's not talk about Zhou Jinyong's methods and methods, just his current attitude and strategy for the problem, it can be seen that he is no longer the refugee in the past.

The students in Datong seem to be able to take care of themselves.

Looking at Zhou Jinyong, Zhang Haogu laughed: "Okay, what you said is not bad, the students in Datong must have this attitude, don't be afraid of the hardships that stand in front of us, we also have to overcome obstacles, Go ahead!"
