Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

"One million? This goal is not too big."

"Just take your time...Speaking of it, my lord, if our navy can move its main force to Dengzhou Water City, and trade with Lushun, it will be very convenient to ship directly from Shuiguan."

"Let's wait for it...the time is not yet."

This time Zhang Shouren used thunderous means in the Zhaoyuan Gold Mine incident, he did not hesitate to kill and set fire, and he also forced Liu Jingyao's military sect to endorse him. I always feel like a foreign nouveau riche, and now it is more of a combination of civil and military forces. I am very dissatisfied with Zhang Shouren, and I am very intent on boycotting him.

In addition, Chen Bingbei was also very dissatisfied with this matter, and he announced that he wanted to rectify the military discipline of the battalion. Now it seems that Dengzhou City is not so easy to go to. [

Zhong Xian, as the head of the staff, of course understood this truth very well, so he immediately bowed his head and drank his tea.

At this moment, the clerk had already brought the enveloped official document, Zhang Shouren opened it and looked at it, pushed the official document away with a cup of tea, and said powerlessly: "The world is so big, is there any smart and upright magistrate?" Half of them? Why do they all look like this? Will you die if you don’t mess with me?”

Zhong Xian also said from the bottom of his heart: "The upper officials are more confused and do less work. If they don't make trouble for the subordinates, they are good officials."

The situation in Laiwu was that the county magistrate named Xu Zhen intentionally made trouble and invited the name. This person was born in Donglin, but he was just a juren.He was selected from the Ministry of Officials to become the magistrate. It is a dream to be promoted through the normal way. After ten officials, he can only be the magistrate until he dies of old age. To be a poor magistrate in a remote place like Yunnan, Guizhou or Hainan, don't think about other benefits.However, he was born in the Donglin Party in Xuzhi County, and his ideas are also ingenious. Simply put, the current approach is to invite fame directly.

The background of the Laiwu Iron Mine is Zhang Shouren. Everyone in the world knows it. The land belongs to the Jinan Prefecture. Except for some local gentry families, no outsiders have reached out to it. Now the Xuzhi County is forcibly prohibiting the mines from recruiting more miners under the pretext that there may be accidents due to excessive mining. Up to now, the Laiwu Iron Mine has less than 2000 employees.

"Did you give this guy a gift?"

"At most 1 taels can be given at one time, but this Xu Zhen is only in his forties. He is considered a young man in the prime of life in Datiao County magistrate. He is full of enthusiasm for being an official, and he only wants to seek fame without money. The most important thing is that the rumors spread. He is afraid. After the money was collected, the matter was revealed, and those Donglin comrades will not let him go."

"Then think of another way..."

Members of the Donglin Party can't be lured, and certainly can't be threatened.To provoke one is to poke a hornet's nest... Zhang Shouren tapped his finger on the table, muttering nonstop.

"My lord, the method of assassination and other methods can never be repeated."

As a staff member, Zhong Xian couldn't avoid some things. He said in a straightforward manner: "Two officials died in Zhaoyuan and Denglai, and there were four or five other officials. They should be blamed on thieves and thieves. Those who are interested know that we did it. This is already very taboo, and assassinating Zhengyin officials in Jinan Prefecture is no different from rebellion, and the court will not tolerate it."

Zhang Shouren gave a dry laugh, gave up the bloody scene in his mind, and turned to Zhong Xian, "How is Laiwu?"

"Laiwu is located at an important point, with many mountains, iron, coal, and merchants. Not counting the prosperous places like Jining and Jinan, the territory is also considered peaceful. As an official here, I am honest and cautious, and the worst evaluation is middle school."

"There won't be any treason or incest cases in Laiwu recently..."

Zhong Xian had a half-smile on his face, shook his head and said: "The imperial court now ranks first in the examination of money and grain, unlike before, when he committed treason or incest, he would definitely be dismissed from office. Besides, he is from Donglin..."

"That can't be helped... I will ask Chen Wozi to write a book to read. The people in Donglin Fushe also have different opinions on the mining. Chen Zilong is always more open-minded, and he has a bigger name. I hope he can bluff Let's stay..."

……

……

A few days later, Xu Zhixian, who had received the letter, pulled back and began to write vigorously. [

"My elder brother is a great talent, how could he condescend to do things with a good body? I don't know what I know now. The saying that mining is beneficial and harmless is absurd and ridiculous. It's purely for others to talk about..."

After criticizing Chen Zilong, Xu Zhi County was satisfied and asked someone to copy more than a dozen copies of the letter and reply letter, and then sent someone to send them to the south of the Yangtze River on a fast horse.

"Hmph, Chen Zilong thought he was a great talent in Fushe. He got mixed up with Zhang Shouren in Jiaodong, and Jiangnan scholars have long been dissatisfied with him. This time, I will give him a good touch, and with Zhang Shouren, it is strictly forbidden to open mines." Putting together several things together, Zhang Tianru will definitely appreciate me. With him lobbying and bragging, it is not impossible for him to get Zhuo Yi after three years of exams and be promoted to a fellow student..."

Zhang Shouren's actions in the Jiaolai area have been fermented by distorted and distorted transmissions by those with a heart, and his reputation in Shilin in the south of the Yangtze River has already been extremely bad.

Zhang Pu was very dissatisfied with Liu Zeqing because of his affairs, and Wu Weiye gave a lot of memorials to the emperor last month, and one of them was strict military laws to prevent military generals from being domineering and lawless. It was almost clearly aimed at Zhang Shouren .

In the Denglai area, there was no superficial resistance, but there were many private discussions and letters to the outside world, expressing dissatisfaction with Zhang Shouren.

It is a very taboo thing for a warrior to control the place, to set up the shogunate to consult, to set up military forts and farmland, and to have all the financial power, military power and regime in his hands. What is even more taboo is that Zhang Shouren has not yet attached himself to any powerful civil servant Under the group!

Xue Guoguan is no good, he has no party affiliation, and neither is Liu Jingyao. He is a northern scholar-bureaucrat. In the early years of Chongzhen, the northern scholar-bureaucrats were defeated by the Donglin Party.

The pattern of gentlemen being noble and military being inferior has been broken, but many scholars are still trapped in the old dream and cannot get out.

"Well, this Xu Zhen has done a good job."

In a manor outside Wuxi City, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the spring scenery is very pleasant.This is a typical southern garden for the scholar-bureaucrats to play and rest. It is not like the majestic atmosphere in the north, but has nine twists and turns.

On the side of the water bank, five or six literati sat leaning against the pavilion, each with a fishing rod in his hand. After fishing, he ate carambola and green plums, accompanied by fine wine. Xiaoxiao is unrestrained and unrestrained, all of them are as graceful as a fairy.
