It can only be said that Wang Wenshan does not understand Wang Anshi, or that he cannot understand Wang Anshi at all based on his level.
Wang Anshi is determined for the country and the country and does not care about these things at all.
Of course, this is also one of the reasons why Wang Anshi’s final reform failed.
This court is not about fighting and killing, but about humaneness and sophistication!
But then again, does Wang Anshi have a low emotional intelligence, or can he just pretend not to understand?
The suffering of a man is not enough for outsiders to understand.
After getting Zhang Fei's contract template, Wang Anshi was not in a hurry to issue a decree, but went to find Song Shenzong.
"Your Majesty, I have been busy with the house tax issue recently. I found that the previous miscellaneous taxes actually involved more than a dozen yamen, so that people were overwhelmed. There were even several yamen collecting several taxes from one household. This shows the disaster of redundant officials.
, it not only endangers the finances, but also endangers the stability of the world!"
Song Shenzong frowned, "I wonder if you have any good ideas?"
Wang Anshi said: "Since miscellaneous taxes are unified, I think that personnel should also be unified, so I suggest setting up a new yamen to handle all taxes in the city."
Zhang Fei's plan only elaborated on the unification of tax types, but Zhang Fei didn't mention much about the department. He didn't understand the key. The administrative structure of the Northern Song Dynasty was really a mess. It was so complicated that it was not a history major.
I just can’t figure it out.
For example, Xu Zun.
When he was appointed as the magistrate of Dengzhou, his official position was actually the official of Dali Temple. To put it simply, the magistrate of the state means temporary management and is an errand.
Now he has returned to Dali Temple, but his official official position has become the governor of Dengzhou. The title of governor is a false title, but his power is to judge the affairs of Dali Temple, which also means temporary management.
No matter what kind of official you are, you will never do what this official should do.
No dynasty was worse than the Northern Song Dynasty.
It can only be said that the Zhao family, who have experienced the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, are as afraid of this as a tiger!
But now this has seriously affected the operation of the country.
It's time to make a change.
Lu Huiqing is an expert in this field. Since taxes are unified, personnel should also be unified. If personnel are unified, power will be formed.
To change the law, you must have power.
It's just that he took a two-step approach. He first unified miscellaneous taxes and saw the reaction of the ministers. After passing it, he then used this as an excuse to propose the unification of personnel.
The taxes are all covered, but if people don’t agree, it doesn’t make sense!
The ambitious Song Shenzong would not stick to this and immediately agreed.
Although the two are monarchs and ministers, they are also masters and disciples, and even better friends. They have long cherished each other, and they have discussed many times about the shortcomings of people being too busy.
Overstaffing was also a major problem in the Song Dynasty system.
If they are unified under one department, the responsibilities will be clearly divided and efficiency will be significantly improved.
In the future, the reform will definitely take this step, otherwise, this decree will not make sense and will be changed!
Wang Anshi also used this matter to practice his skills.
After getting Song Shenzong's consent, Wang Anshi returned the favor and handed over the new yamen to Lu Huiqing, giving him some merit and laying the foundation for the future.
You can also use this to tell others that if you follow me, I won’t treat you badly.
.....
Ma family.
"Ouch...Liu Dianshi, I am really unjust. You said that I am a small businessman. I don't know what is going on in the court. The reason why I agreed to that kid was just to make money and nothing else.
."
Ma Tianhao regretted his mistake and spoke to the middle-aged man sitting next to him with fear.
This middle-aged man is Liu Shiping, the official of Sinong Temple, and his responsibility is to manage Changpingcang.
The relationship between Changpingcang and the pawn shop is also very close, and they have many business contacts, just like the relationship between the housekeeper and the dental shop.
Liu Shiping said: "Whether you know it or not, it doesn't matter. The key is that you'd better not interact with Zhang San again in the future."
Ma Tianhao immediately said: "Even if Liu Dianshi doesn't tell me, I will never associate with him again."
Liu Shiping couldn't help but be stunned when he saw his answer so simply, "What about your mortgage business?"
Ma Tianhao immediately said: "Liu Dian didn't know anything. I just bought him a contract, but I didn't hire him or cooperate with him."
Liu Shiping asked: "Buy a contract?"
Ma Tianhao nodded, "He said that this contract can be guaranteed by the court, so as long as the court orders it, I will have nothing to do with him."
Liu Shiping asked again: "I wonder how much this contract costs?"
"Five hundred strings!"
"Five hundred strings?"
Liu Shiping was shocked and said: "Executive member, did you drink his ecstasy soup?"
Ma Tianhao said: "Liu Dianshi, think about it, if you can get the support of the imperial court, a mere five hundred guan will mean nothing."
Liu Shiping has a headache!
Earn another five hundred dollars?
This makes their encirclement and suppression seem so ridiculous.
But there is no other way. The cooperation between both parties has ended, what else can he ask for?
Liu Shiping could only return without success.
But as soon as he left, someone walked out of the back room, and it wasn't Zhang Fei.
He just gave the contract template to Ma Tianhao today, and happened to meet Liu Shiping.
Ma Tianhao looked at Zhang Fei and said with a smile: "It is really dangerous to cooperate with you. Even before I made any announcement, the other party has already come to the door. You, an Erbi person, have offended so many officials. I really don't know how you can do it."
It can be done."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Please rest assured, members, this matter will be resolved soon. We will have many opportunities to cooperate in the future."
Ma Tianhao asked: "Is it related to the Fan family?"
Zhang Fei chuckled and said: "Don't worry about it now. The most important thing is to fight the battle in front of you. Soon the imperial court will officially issue a decree. The officials must hurry up and make profits as soon as possible to attract people."
to more merchants to join.”
Ma Tianhao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm already negotiating with Bailunlou about joining the partnership."
"Alum Tower?"
Zhang Fei asked curiously: "Isn't that a restaurant?"
Ma Tianhao said with a smile: "Then you really underestimate Baifanlou. We have two major shopping malls in Bianjing, one is in Xiangguo Temple and the other is in Baifanlou. According to the contract we drafted, if the mortgage is not paid by then, we will have to
I put the house up for purchase, and I used this matter to cooperate with Baifanlou and lobby them to join the group. Mr. Fan was also very interested!"
What a powerful businessman. Zhang Fei smiled and said: "It's really relaxing and pleasant to cooperate with outsiders."
Ma Tianhao chuckled: "It's really scary to work with you!"
"Haha...!"
Having said that, Ma Tianhao is not panicked at all. His contracts can be turned into legal provisions, and the threats from Wang Wenshan and others are just like a joke.
If you are capable, you should threaten Zhang Fei!
If you come to threaten me, doesn't it just prove that you have nothing to do with Zhang Fei?
We should strengthen our relationship with Zhang Fei.
.....
Wangfu.
"That old fox Ma Tianhao is clearly trying to deal with me. What does he do? Don't you know the grudge between me and Zhang San? Okay, don't fall into my hands in the future."
Wang Wenshan slammed the table angrily and cursed.
Chen Yu advised: "There is no need to be angry, mentor. They are all just ordinary people in the market. Not everything they do is fair and upright, and we will catch them sooner or later."
Wang Wenshan said excitedly: "You don't know, today the court has let out the news again, saying that Wang Jiefu will set up a new yamen to take charge of the city's taxation."
"Establish a new Yamen?"
Chen Yu groaned, "This Wang Jiefu really has no good intentions!"
The integration of miscellaneous taxes is a decree, and the integration of personnel is power.
This is a qualitative difference!
There is a saying in the officialdom: Don’t be afraid of the law, just be afraid of power!
If this happens, they will really have to cut the meat!
Once Wang Anshi controls the city's tax revenue, no one can escape.
"This must be Zhang San's idea. He is clearly seeking revenge on us."
Wang Wenshan became more and more angry as he thought about it. Originally, he wanted to find another opportunity to take revenge on Zhang Fei, but unexpectedly, he was bitten by Zhang Fei first, and it was really painful. Once this policy was implemented, he would definitely
Having lost a large amount of income, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, "No, I have to show him some color."
"Teacher, you must not do it. Although Zhang San is nothing to worry about, behind him is Xu Zhongtu. This person is not easy to offend."
As soon as Chen Yu saw Wang Wenshan's expression, he knew what he was planning to do.
Wang Anshi is currently protecting Zhang Fei. Even if they rely on power, they can't do anything to Zhang Fei, so they can only use other means.
This was actually very common in the Northern Song Dynasty. To deal with unruly people, beating them up was the most direct way!
"Is this me easy to mess with?" Wang Wenshan snorted angrily.
Chen Yu frowned and said nothing, obviously disapproving of this.
Wang Wenshan glanced at him and said: "But don't worry, I don't want to hurt his life, I just want to teach him a lesson and let him understand that Bianjing is not a place where he can stay. As long as we are careful and don't leave any
If we provide evidence, he will do nothing for us."
Chen Yu knew that Zhang San had become Wang Wenshan's inner demon. After all, Wang Wenshan came from a family of officials and had been pampered since childhood. Now he has a high status, but he has never been humiliated by ordinary people. If Zhang Fei is not punished severely, he will find it difficult to let go.
I feel so heartbroken and resentful that I even feel ashamed to see others.
Chen Yu frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Actually, it's not impossible to do this."
Wang Wenshan asked: "What do you think?"
Chen Yu said: "If Wang Jiefu really establishes a new yamen, it will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of many ministers in the court. However, since Wang Jiefu is deeply trusted by the officials, this matter may be difficult to change. We can take the opportunity to make them vent their anger on Zhang San.<
/p>
If Zhang San is attacked at this time, many ministers in the court will definitely applaud, but Wang Jiefu may not ignore it. If he takes care of it, then we can focus all the conflicts on Zhang San, and then use the ministers to
We must use our strength to compete with Wang Jiefu, so we may be able to get a chance to win."
Wang Wenshan's eyes lit up, "This is a very clever plan."
This is what they did last time. Regarding the restraint dispute, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang both opposed it, but there was nothing they could do.
As for the housing tax reform, Sima Guang and Chen Shengzhi both supported Wang Anshi. They took advantage of the right time, place and people. It is difficult to reverse this matter, but if Zhang Fei is brought in, the nature will change.
This is actually a common method used by officials.
