Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

Chapter 144

Seeing this scene, Fan Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. In history, Zhao Xu directly appointed Zhang Dun as the sole prime minister, which started the new party's liquidation of the old party, and dragged the originally weak Song into the abyss again.

Fortunately, now that Zhao Xu's emperor's methods are beginning to show, and now the court is three-legged, maintaining the balance of the court for the time being.

"Reporting to the officials, now that the Great Song Dynasty is waiting to be rejuvenated, I implore you to immediately implement the payment of labor to the mu, so as to enrich the country and strengthen the people." Just as he took office, Zhang Dun couldn't wait to propose.

"The old minister thinks it's inappropriate. There has never been a tribute to the mu since ancient times. It has only been a few days since it was proposed. It may not be appropriate to rush to implement it. The minister thinks that more research is needed before it can be implemented safely." Lu Dafang objected road.

Although he took the initiative to propose to agree to share labor into the mother, but after all, it represents the interests of the old party, so naturally it can be delayed day by day.

Su Zhe also frowned, and the new law was different from the new law that had been implemented before, and it was indeed not appropriate to be too urgent, so he immediately agreed with Lu Dafang.

At this moment in the court, the three prime ministers are two to one, and the new party is immediately at a disadvantage.

Zhao Xu frowned. Naturally, he highly respected the servitude for his mother. However, when the two prime ministers objected, he couldn't make arbitrary decisions.

"Fan Taicheng, this strategy is from your hands, what do you think!" Zhao Xu changed his words and pushed Fan Zheng out.

Fan Zheng had no choice but to stand out and said: "It is a good policy to spread labor into the mu, and this is an indisputable matter."

In an instant, Xindang's face was overjoyed, but Fan Zheng's next sentence made their joy freeze on their faces.

"However, even if a doctor obtains a prescription from the gods, it cannot be directly used on a large scale. Instead, it can be implemented after medical experiments are confirmed to be feasible. The same is true for the allocation of labor to the mu. I suggest that it be implemented in one place first to see how it works. Effective." Fan Zheng said again.

"Implement it in one place first!" Zhao Xu was thoughtful.

"My minister agrees!" Su Zhe echoed.

Su Zhe used to be an impassioned reformer, and he also joined Wang Anshi's Department of Regulations. However, his ideas were at odds with Wang Anshi's radical views, and he eventually quit the Department of Regulations and went to the opposite side of the new law. Fan Zheng's move was exactly what he wanted.

"My minister agrees!" Zhang Dun also nodded. He knew that the new party's strength was not enough to forcefully promote the reform. At least one place's implementation of taxation and taxation would at least let the world know the benefits of the new law.

In an instant, the power of the imperial court was not good for the old party, Lu Dafang sighed when he saw this, and had no choice but to echo him.

"I don't know where Fan Taicheng thinks it's better to promote it?" Zhao Xu asked again.

"The land of Gyeonggi!" Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"The land of Gyeonggi? No!" As soon as Fan Zheng said this, the three prime ministers objected in unison.

Without him, it's just because the land of Gyeonggi is an important place in the Song Dynasty. Once there is a mistake in the distribution of labor and mu, the consequences may be unpredictable.

Fan Zheng explained: "I didn't choose the place of Gyeonggi out of nowhere. First of all, the place of Gyeonggi is right under our noses, and we can know all the gains and losses in time, which is the most convincing."

"Secondly, because of the insect plagues in Gyeonggi this year, doctors are promoting pesticides to kill insects, which has achieved great results. The land in Gyeonggi is no longer threatened by insect plagues, and grain production has increased by about [-]%. After paying the tax on the mu farmland, the income is almost the same as in previous years, and there is even a slight surplus, so naturally there is not much resistance."

"There is such a good thing?" Zhao Xu was overjoyed when he heard that.

Although he was very confident in the new law, he knew that once the implementation of taxation into mu was implemented, the landlords and squires with a lot of land would definitely be dissatisfied. Therefore, he did not hesitate to make concessions and reduce taxes for officials all over the world in order to win the support of officials.

If it is possible to increase the production of pesticides by [-]% in conjunction with the apportionment of the mu, and the [-]% increase in field production is enough to offset the tax of the apportionment of the mu, the implementation of the new law will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

"That's right. Pesticides are being sprayed outside the city of Kaifeng to basically control the pest infestation. The officials can tell at a glance." Fan Zheng said proudly.

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, and said to the courtiers: "My dear friends, would you like to accompany me to take a trip outside Kaifeng City."

"I want what I want, I dare not ask for it!" All the ministers bowed and said.

..............................

Outside the city of Kaifeng, farmland is everywhere.

In the farmland, farmers wearing cotton wool masks carried modified wooden pumps to spray pesticides on the wheat fields.

"Officials, please take a look! This is a farmland that has been sprayed with pesticides, and there are no more pests!" Kaifeng prefect Su Song personally led Zhao Xu and court officials to a wheat field.

I saw that this wheat field was growing very well, and there was not even a single insect. However, a farmland not far away had not been sprayed with pesticides, and the newly grown ears of wheat were covered with dense pests!Wheat is in extremely poor shape.

"The gap is so big!" Zhang Dun exclaimed that the gap between the two wheat fields is visible to the naked eye, and even as the pest plague continues, the wheat fields that have not been sprayed with pesticides will be even more serious.

The officials also nodded heavily, even if they don't know anything about farming, they can still tell that the wheat field over there is harvested well.

Su Song said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, the doctor made the pesticide in time, otherwise the fields in the entire Gyeonggi would be like this. Not only will the harvest this year be greatly reduced, but a large number of insect eggs will even be produced, endangering the harvest next year."

While everyone was talking, a farmer came with a pump on his back and sprayed pesticides on the crops full of pests again.

"Officials be careful!"

Smelling the pungent smell of pesticides, the officials quickly persuaded Zhao Xu to back off.

Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "It's okay for people to spray pesticides with pumps on their backs, so the smell is naturally not a problem."

"The officials are wise! The amount of pesticides can only kill pests. It will not cause serious harm to the human body, let alone endanger food. In two days, all the farmland in the capital will be sprayed with pesticides, and there will be no more worries about pests." Su Song nodded.

Su Zhe frowned and said, "As far as I know, the doctors' family sells pesticides. Could it be that the Kaifeng government requires all farmers to buy pesticides?"

Zhang Dun raised his brows, if so, Su Song's move is no different from the Qingmiao method.

Fan Zheng took over the words and said: "You don't know, the doctors are divided into three classes according to the conditions of the farmers. One is the poor farmers, and the doctors will directly donate the pesticides. This is also for the first experiment, so that the people can see the effects of the pesticides."

Hundreds of officials have taught by correspondence one after another, and the doctors are extremely benevolent to the poor households.

"Sure enough, after spraying the pesticides, the plague of insects was eliminated. The people witnessed the effects of the pesticides, and naturally bought the pesticides for spraying. This is the second type, and of course there is the last one. The people have no spare money to buy pesticides, and the doctors allow them to spray the pesticides first. After the harvest in the future, I will pay for the medicine!"

Su Song echoed: "The doctors have contributed a lot to the victory over the pests."

"So, the pest plague in Gyeonggi has been lifted?" Lu Dafang asked in disbelief.

"It's not just the insect plagues in Gyeonggi, I'm afraid all the insect plagues in the world will not be feared in the future! Now doctors are studying locust plagues, spraying pesticides on their spawning grounds, and using pesticides to kill them before their larvae become a disaster. Harmful The millennium plague of insects and locusts will no longer threaten Song Dynasty." Fan Zheng said proudly.

All the officials were shocked. For a long time, insect disasters were considered to be natural disasters, but they were warnings from the heavens. This was the first time in the history of human beings to defeat natural disasters, and they relied on doctors!

"Fan Zhengbian's family of forensic medicine has achieved such great prosperity, which will benefit the country and the people; I will not be left behind, and I will definitely reform the law to make it stronger and revitalize the Great Song Dynasty." Zhao Xu said in a high-spirited spirit, expressing his heart.

"Official Shengming!"

This time, all the officials bowed their heads, and no one questioned it.
