Houmen's concubine

Chapter 284
"The student said, Mr. Ning, if you think you can do it, it's fine, if you can't do it, it's a student and I'm talking nonsense?"

"Okay, but it's okay for you to say."

It is estimated that Ning Zhiyuan went to the doctor in a hurry because of his illness. It is better to discuss with several people than to be anxious and helpless.

"Students first talk about the money. The construction of the pier can be done through a bidding method, so that merchants with money can build the pier, and then contract out the pier..."

Wang Tong'er brought it up, and she wants to go back and perfect it. Although it is her own suggestion, the specific rules still need to be figured out by the magistrate Ning and his subordinates, officials and masters. This is the same as doing business. One thing, whether it can be done or not is another matter. How much execution and details are involved in this?Ning Zhifu really listened to him and passed it. It can be seen that he is a very careful and regulated person. Such an official will definitely be promoted in the future.This is also a matter of mutual benefit. After the merchants get the wharf, even if they specialize in docking business, this is a very profitable business...
Ning Zhiyuan looked at the eloquent young man in front of him, and felt very emotional: I have been an official for nearly ten years, and I am not as good as the young man who just acted.

"Besides, when the tax on cargo ships was first collected, the merchants must have been unable to think about it for a while. Mr. Ning, you have to step up your efforts to promote it. Aren't the officers and soldiers of the imperial court going to fight against the Japanese bandits like this time? To take precautions, the establishment of sea guards also requires money to support them. The imperial court has worked hard for the interests of your merchants. It only needs you to pay such a loss of money, which is better than being murdered by Japanese bandits. , besides, the presence of escorts at sea is to keep your merchant ships safe, right? From now on, you no longer have to be afraid of Japanese bandits, pirates and other bandits..."

Besides, the court system is a ditch, which has been built, while commerce and merchants are water. How to divert water to keep the water flowing, the birds singing and the flowers fragrant, is a matter for adults to examine.Of course, they can compete for one or two, as the saying goes, they will hit the water for three thousand miles, and a hundred boats will compete for the upper reaches.

However, there is still the water transportation, I am afraid that in the future, the army and the court officials will jointly manage it.This is a big deal.

Wang Tong'er's mouth was parched while Ning Zhiyuan listened with relish, and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay! Well said, after the matter is completed, I will report yes, and the court will show Qin Yu your merits!" Ning Zhiyuan raised his brows and said yes repeatedly happily.

"No, don't tell outsiders that it was suggested by the students, let alone be played in the imperial court. All these are the methods that your prefect Ning came up with." Wang Tong'er shook her head and said.

What are you thinking?If the emperor knew that this was his own idea, why wouldn't he know what to make up for?
I still have some ideas for myself to spit out slowly in the future!
Wang Tong'er thought of the numbered room in the Gong Yuan, and it happened to be an opportunity to speak at this moment, so she stood up and bowed again to the prefect Ning and said, "Master prefect, the students have an off-topic topic, and I will tell you by the way today, I hope you take it to heart."

Ning Zhifu hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, thinking that he was trying to gain something for his father, and he planned in his heart that as long as he didn't break the line, it would be fine to agree to her.Thinking of this, Wen Sheng asked, "It's okay to say what it is."

Wang Tong'er knew that she had missed this opportunity, and she didn't know if she would have such an opportunity to speak to the emperor when she arrived in the capital?

Advising the emperor is not as easy as directly suggesting to the magistrate Ning, and the benefits of doing things are also significant.

"When the students went to the Gongyuan for the exam, they saw that the house was not only too narrow, but also made of wood. The students thought that such a house was too unsafe. If some candidates used fire, what would they do if it caught fire? So the students boldly suggested that they could Would you like to replace the numbered rooms in the tribute courtyard with bricks?"

Wang Tong'er remembered that the narrow numbered room in the Gong Yuan was locked from the outside, so how could there be time to escape in case of fire?

Moreover, the lighting in the number room is not the electric lamps used by modern people, but oil lamps and candles brought by the candidates.

All these lighting fixtures are a source of fire...
"Master Zhifu, you can also ask for donations. Anyone who has money in the world will not respect scholars? As long as you make a notice, many merchants will come to give money."

Ning Zhiyuan once again admired Wang Tong'er: Don't look at her young age, she handles things safely, and she is also very kind... This head is full of golden ideas, and she is a once-in-a-lifetime talent... what a pity!I am about to leave Qinzhou for the capital, and I will never hear her incomparably beautiful little song again...
Wang Tong'er looked at Ning Zhifu's admiration and pity for her, thinking that he was sorry for his own cleverness and was reluctant to leave.

If he regretted that he would never hear his own singing again, he would probably roll his eyes at him—who is it?
"Okay! Your proposal is good!"

There was also a fire in the number room of the Gongyuan during the exam, but fortunately there were no casualties, so it was not taken seriously.After Wang Tong'er's suggestion, Ning Zhiyuan broke out in a cold sweat immediately, if it really caught fire, the consequences would be unimaginable if the fire was not extinguished in time!
Ning Zhiyuan clapped his hands in approval, and said, "That's a good proposal! It just so happens that the township examination is over, and people's enthusiasm for this examination has not diminished. Tomorrow, I will ask the master to issue a notice and post it next to the gate outside the yamen On the courtyard wall. It is estimated that there are quite a few merchants who have come to send money.”

Qinzhou is a wealthy state city, and every year, many merchants send money to the magistrate's yamen and the magistrate.

Like the previous Zhu Yanshen, you donated a lot of silver taels to the magistrate Yamen and Ning Zhiyuan every year, and Qin Baozhen did the same, but not as much as Zhu Yanshen.

Fortunately, Ning Zhiyuan is not a corrupt official, most of the silver sent by the merchants is almost used for the construction of canals and dams during the flood season every year.

Because Qinzhou is at the junction of the river and the sea, every year during the flood season, river workers are called in advance to build dams on both sides of the junction of the river and the sea.

The money is simply paid by the imperial court, and the money does not come in time.

Therefore, the money sent by the merchants was urgently needed to repair the dam.

Otherwise, once the dam breaks and causes floods, he, Ning Zhiyuan, is the first person responsible.

In addition to the year-end bonuses for officials and servants in the yamen, there is also money to improve the daily food in the yamen.

The yamen packs a lunch every day for the yamen servants, almost all of which are stir-fried with one vegetable and one widow soup, with chestnut rice to keep them full.Just no oil.

With the money given by the merchants, it is also a blessing to be able to add a few slices of meat to the soup or stir-fry every day.

In the end, what was left naturally fell into the purse of the prefect.

　Wang Tong'er: Thinking of the cramped room, I still have lingering fears!
　　Ning Zhifu: Qin Yu not only has a wise brain, but also a kind heart...
