The literary giants of the late Ming Dynasty began by copying books

When the literati hired by the landlords scolded the Trinity Church for its disaster relief actions in newspapers, no one dared to refute it. The battle had been going on for a long time, and these guys seemed to feel that they were on the righteous side. When Wang Wenlong stood up and refuted it, he immediately caused a stir. They resent.

Although Wang Wenlong did not use his real name, everyone knew that "Xundao" was controlled by Wang Wenlong. Without his approval, such content would definitely not be published.

Fang Kezhuang directly wrote an article in response: "Wang Wenlong is just trying to gain fame. Last year, he took advantage of a major disaster and claimed to be a famine-rescuing immortal. He fooled the people and took credit for the court's disaster relief in order to gain glory for himself. Now he is colluding with the demon of the Trinity Cult. I think it is There is a big adultery..."

"We are all disciples of Cheng Zhu, and we have always learned the rules of etiquette and justice since childhood. Wang Wenlong, a returnee from the West, does not know Chinese etiquette and law. We have no roots and bottom. Whether he is a Chinese person or not is unclear... I am lucky enough to donate a prison student. It suddenly dawned on me that Confucianism is ridiculous, how can it dare to talk about morality with people like us from the Confucian sect?"

Fang Kezhuang did not debate Wang Wenlong head-on at all, but singled out Wang Wenlong's background for personal attacks. He felt that he had the honor of being a civil servant anyway, and Wang Wenlong was a supervisor, so he could not cause trouble to him even if he was scolded.

This was because he had just arrived in Fujian from Shandong this year, and he didn't know what Wang Jianyang was capable of on the ground in Fujian.

Wang Wenlong was stunned for a long time after reading the article, feeling as if he had been bitten by a dog. He was just trying to balance public opinion, but he was still criticized?

Then Wang Wenlong sneered, isn't it just a scolding war, who is afraid of whom?

In his previous life, he was also involved in the new media circle, and he is absolutely familiar with online writing.

He did not rush to write, but first sent people to investigate Fang Kezhuang's information.

It was also due to the fact that he was not very aware of the protection of private information at this time. Wang Wenlong found out Fang Kezhuang's experience with almost no difficulty. This guy was really not a good guy. After coming to Fuzhou Guesthouse, he did not feel at ease teaching him. Students, instead, they act as traitors everywhere and use their pen and ink to blackmail others.

What's more important is that Wang Wenlong found out who commissioned Fang Kezhuang to write an article and publish a newspaper to denounce the Trinity Church.

Wang Wenlong looked at the evidence in his hand and couldn't help but smile scornfully. Suddenly he felt that he really thought highly of Fang Kezhuang. How dare he start a fight with someone with such a background?

Wang Wenlong is a famous official in Fuzhou, and now he is involved in the Trinity Church. This controversy has already aroused public discussion in Fuzhou literary circles, and many people want to see how Wang Wenlong will respond.

In the next issue of "Xun Bao", Wang Wenlong did write an article, but it was not a theory with Fang Kezhuang. His article was called "Wang Wenlong's Statement of Complaint."

"I think Mr. Fang Kezhuang was originally a guest from Shandong. He came from a poor family and was only able to get married last year. Now he has married three wives and three concubines. He also has a two-floor, two-floor mansion in Bingbusi Lane, complete with children and servants. This newspaper is curious about his identity. The source of the funds was carefully investigated and listed below: one of the concubines was obtained by blackmailing the Zhang family of Lehu, and was sitting in the home of the rich Li family. Tong Sheng, a descendant of the Li family, was unable to test it, and was forced to ask for more than fifty taels of silver. There was also a landlord. Wang asked him to write a confession and slander him, and offered him more than a hundred taels of silver."

"As for the reason why he slandered Wang Jianyang, after investigation, it was found that he received twenty taels of gift from the landlord Wang Dahu, and he also heard that Wang Dahu said, 'It is bad luck to kill those Trinity people!' So it was written in three articles, and I refuted it in the newspaper. Therefore, you are slandering me, making slanderous remarks, and ruining my reputation."

"I am asking for information. I am aggrieved and helpless. The press is not outside the law. I have sent a petition to the Houguan County Government. I will resolutely safeguard my reputation and hold accountable to the end..."

Readers were stunned.

I have seen many literati fight with each other, but this is the first time I have seen someone sue the official if they disagree with me.

Not only were the readers dumbfounded, Fang Kezhuang was also confused after seeing the reply in the newspaper, and then people from the county government came to his door.

Fang Kezhuang quickly sent someone to clear things up, and then he realized who he had offended - Wang Wenlong was Xu Xueju's staff. He went to various government offices in Fuzhou on weekdays and was familiar with all the officials in Fuzhou.

Wang Wenlong had always had a relationship with Shen, the biggest boss of the Zhejiang Party. The first-ranking governor of Fujian, Jin Xuecheng, was a member of the Zhejiang Party, and the second-ranking governor, Xu Xueju, was a member of the Zhejiang Party... They were all Wang Wenlong's people from top to bottom, and Wang Wenlong's evidence was conclusive. How can Fang Kezhuang fight this lawsuit?

Fang Kezhuang lost his temper at that time and secretly wrote a letter to Wang Wenlong to intercede. Wang Wenlong directly wrote back the original letter. Fang Kezhuang was forced to find Wang Wenlong's home in Liwenfang. No one knew what he said specifically. Anyway, a few days later Fang Kezhuang went so far as to publish an article in "Cangshan Poems" praising Wang Wenlong's high moral integrity, and then packed up his parcel and left Fujian in despair.    …

The Chief Envoy Si Yamen, Xu Xueju had a "Xun Bao" in his left hand and a "Cangshan Poetry Collection" in his right hand. He couldn't help but laugh when he compared the articles written by Wang Wenlong and Fang Kezhuang.

"Jianyang is really good at keeping this house in good order."

Jin Xuezeng will retire in the next two years, and has reached an alliance agreement with Xu Xueju. If there is a major disaster in Fujian this year, Jin Xuezeng will definitely be reprimanded for it, and the political team he left behind for Xu Xueju will definitely be damaged. They all supported Wang Wenlong and the Trinity Church's disaster relief activities. Wang Wenlong's move this time directly suppressed the public opinion that criticized the Trinity Church, which made Xu Xueju breath a sigh of relief.

"This person is so talkative that he will definitely write articles and scold me again after leaving Fujian. This relationship is finally settled."

Wang Wenlong's tone was quite helpless, but he was not very afraid in his heart. His relationship with the Donglin Party was much better than that of Fang Kezhuang. People like Fang Kezhuang bullied the weak and feared the strong. Even though he hated him deeply, after joining the Donglin Party, he knew that he With such strength, I won’t mess with you even if I have nothing to do.

Xu Xueju said: "Jianyang has contributed so much, but the disaster relief work of Trinity Church may be able to make up for it for a while, but it seems that it still cannot alleviate this year's disaster."

The time has come to April, and everyone with eyes knows that this year will definitely be a disaster year. In previous years, you can still wear jackets during the season when you have to wear a veil. It is already summer, and the late spring cold has come late. The yield of rice fields in Fujian has been reduced by at least 30%. Even if sweet potatoes, pumpkins and other cereals are supplemented, life will be difficult this year.

Wang Wenlong nodded and said: "Fujian is a small place with a large population, so we have to eat all the food on weekdays. This year's weather is abnormal. Relief alone is not the answer. We have to find ways to disperse the victims."

"Do you have any ideas?" Xu Xueju asked.

Wang Wenlong said: "The fundamental way to solve the famine in Fujian is immigration."

As soon as this issue was mentioned, Xu Xueju felt dizzy and shook his head directly: "Immigration and development are really prone to trouble. The conflicts between the Fujian people are too sharp."

Successive Fujian officials have never thought about immigration to alleviate the population problem along the coast of southern Fujian. The direction of immigration is also very simple, towards western and central Fujian.

However, the geographical conditions in Fujian are too difficult. There are eight mountains, one water and one farmland. Even the destination of immigrants has a very harsh natural environment. Although places such as Sanming Longyan in western Fujian still have incompletely cultivated land, they are basically deep mountains. Lao Lin, the Fujian government also tried to immigrate, but the life of the previous generations who immigrated was even worse than begging for food in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou.

In addition, the conflict between Fujian natives and tourists is serious. Immigrants who move from the coast to the inland will be squeezed out by the local people. In order to protect themselves, the local natives often form a group, the Hakkas form a group, and the Hokkien, Fuzhou, and Xianyou people who immigrated to the past If they join another group and are beaten to death at every turn, most immigrants will simply not be able to stand.

Officials in Fujian have a headache when it comes to immigration.

Wang Wenlong also knew about this. He was from northern Fujian in his previous life. He knew that although there was some land in northern and western Fujian for reclamation, immigrants from previous dynasties could not be retained. Many of the uncles and uncles around Wang Wenlong when he was a child in his previous life were still there. Immigrants from other places were all the children of factories and mines who moved to the mountains of northern Fujian and western Fujian one after another during the third-line construction period. The development of northern Fujian and western Fujian was barely completed until after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The population density was still not high until Wang Wenlong crossed over.

Wang Wenlong said: “It is not feasible to migrate inland and we should turn to other directions.”

"Is there any other direction?" Xu Xueju was puzzled.

Wang Wenlong pointed to the east: "Overseas Dayuan Island is vast and sparsely populated, and can accommodate the population of Fujian. If you want to immigrate Dayuan, you must first set up a base on the coast of Fujian. You can attract people to build Xiamen City first, and introduce private funds to provide work relief." , firstly, it can alleviate the disaster, secondly, it can reduce the possibility of refugees' uprising, and thirdly, if Dayuan Island can attract immigrants, Xiamen's investment in construction will be benefited a hundred times. With these three benefits, why not do it?"
