Prime Minister Wen glanced at the headlines of the newspaper and immediately put down the newspaper and searched on the table. After a few strokes, he suddenly remembered that he touched the silk rope hanging around his neck, picked up his glasses and put them on. Nothing could make his vision blur again. Wen Tianxiang carefully looked at the headlines "No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor to educate, no matter how hard you are, you can't be hard to have children. The Zhao Guan family took out 1.8 billion yuan of assets to form the Dasong Education Fund."

After reading it, Wen Tianxiang slapped the table and shouted loudly: "It should be like this! It should be like this!" After walking back and forth several times, Wen Tianxiang sat back in his seat and wrote a letter to Zhao Jiaren. After writing the letter to Zhao Guanjia, he was still unsatisfied, so he sat down and wrote an article to the "Da Song Daily" that firmly supported the complete elimination of illiteracy in the Song Dynasty through compulsory education.

A few days later, Wen Tianxiang waited for the article to be published. It was too easy for the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty to deal with the government affairs of the county. Wen Tianxiang immediately called various units in the county to discuss the work of implementing comprehensive compulsory education in the county. After Wen Tianxiang finished speaking passionately, everyone's eyes fell on the Education Director. The Education Director helped to ask in local dialect in Guangnan West Road: "Prime Minister, I don't know how much money the court can allocate."

Wen Tianxiang looked at the Finance Director with a sharp look. The County Finance Director knew how powerful this prime minister-level magistrate of the Song Dynasty had, so he could only pluck up the courage and said: "Prime Minister, our county has hired a master to help make jasmine tea and built more than a dozen iron chain bridges. The county owed a lot of debts and really had no money to build a school."

Before Wen Tianxiang could ask questions, people rushed in outside to report the message, "Prime Minister, people near the county are going to drive the cows across our bridge, and fight with our people again!"

Wen Tianxiang slapped his head and stood up, but Wen Tianxiang couldn't say anything. Since the iron chain bridge communicated with the transportation of Guangnan West Road, a poor county located in a transportation hub, there have been many such things. As long as you pass the iron chain bridge that is dozens of meters or hundreds of meters, you can save dozens of miles. It is a fool to not walk from here. After thinking about it, Wen Tianxiang sat back in his seat and "invited Liu Magistrate from the next county."

After giving the order, Wen Tianxiang looked at the Finance Director again, "Education is a century-long plan, and there will be a way out after studying. Let's ask each village to build school buildings first, and then we will send teachers there."

"Prime Minister, those who are willing to study have already come to the county to study, and it may not be useful to send people to the village." The Education Director sighed.

"How can you know if you haven't done it?" Wen Tianxiang asked coldly.

The Education Director didn't dare to say anything else, so he could only respond: "I understand."

Just as the matter was assigned here, someone hurriedly came to report, "Prime Minister, something happened. I've beaten to death!" Everyone at the meeting looked over. It was not the first time that someone had died, but dozens of people died within a year were too great to have arisen.

The next morning, Liu Zhixian from the next county, led a group of officials from the county and a group of officials led by Wen Tianxiang to touch their heads by the bridge where the accident happened. Liu Zhixian looked ugly and came up and said, "Prime Minister Wen, how do you plan to report this matter? Do you still have to say that the people here are causing trouble?"

Wen Tianxiang was unhappy. He was always noble and never relied on power to suppress others. But if Wen Tianxiang didn't do this, it doesn't mean that the subordinates didn't do this. The last few times the officials wrote very biasedly and sent the documents to the prefecture of the prefecture. Of course, the prefecture was afraid of Wen Tianxiang, so he ordered to record the two major mistakes to Liu Magistrate on the opposite side. Wen Tianxiang was so angry that he felt that this was successful. Wen Tianxiang himself was a shameless person!

"I will read the report on this incident first and then show it to you." Wen Tianxiang replied.

"I think it's better to ask the Prime Minister to demolish the bridge." County Magistrate Liu directly expressed his opinion.

Wen Tianxiang was very unhappy and said angrily: "What? You gave up on yourself! If you have already written a complaint to the mansion, you should come down soon. If you really cherish your future, get things done! If you give up so much, do you deserve yourself! Are you worthy of your parents who worked hard to support your school!"

When Liu Magistrate dared to get angry with Wen Tianxiang, he felt that he had no future. Two more years of term per term, which was equivalent to announcing the end of Liu Magistrate's path to political work. Even if Wen Tianxiang asked him to appeal to the mansion, Liu Magistrate felt that Wen Tianxiang was just playing tricks. If Liu Magistrate's appeal succeeded, Wen Tianxiang would lose face. Everyone is a political person, and face is something more important than life.

When Liu Zhixian heard Wen Tianxiang say this, he was furious. But to be honest, Wen Tianxiang had already taken the truth. Liu Zhixian's face turned red and finally said loudly: "Prime Minister Wen, there was no such iron chain bridge before, so everyone would have to walk out for a few days, so they would not go out! Now with this bridge, everyone wants to go out. They need to bring objects, and who doesn't want to drive out the animals? If you don't allow the animals to leave, this kind of thing will definitely happen in the future! What do you think you should do?"

"I have thought about it, then let's see if I can build a bridge that can cross the animal. If not, think about whether there is any solution. If you run away when you encounter something, where do you want to escape? What do you want to escape?" Wen Tianxiang couldn't help but scold Liu Magistrate.

If Liu Magistrate had a solution, he would have used it long ago. When he was scolded, he would have just thrown it out. "I am the Magistrate, and you are also the Magistrate. County magistrate Wen might as well tell me how to solve it. I'll listen carefully."

"What are you talking nonsense?" "When will Prime Minister Wen be the magistrate?" The officials and cadres on Wen Tianxiang's side immediately scolded.

Wen Tianxiang turned his head and shouted to his subordinates: "Shut up!"

The people below didn't dare to say anything immediately. Although they felt wronged in their hearts, who is Wen Tianxiang? Everyone's future is in the same thoughts as Wen Tianxiang.

At this moment, some of the cadres in the county opposite came out and spoke in a local dialect that was mixed with Mandarin, saying, "Prime Minister Wen, I saw that this place has been built into such an iron cable bridge, but I don't know if I can repair a smaller cableway next to it."

"What does it mean?" Wen Tianxiang asked.

The cadre immediately explained, and Wen Tianxiang took great effort to understand. It turned out that the local cadre felt that the key to the problem now is that the iron chain bridge has a load-bearing limit. The animal carried heavy objects and passed through the load-bearing limit. However, the objects do not need to be carried by the animal, and it is even more impossible to rely on people. Therefore, it is recommended to build a cableway next to the iron chain bridge to transport objects. If people and goods are separated, many things that could not be passed can pass.

It’s just that this cadre is a local and speaks Mandarin worse than the local ones. Wen Tianxiang only understood after he wasting his old nose. The county magistrate Liu next to him didn’t know what the cadre was saying.

Wen Tianxiang thought this method was feasible, so he asked the cadre, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I said, no one listened. Everyone thinks that Prime Minister, you can spend so much money because the court gives you money. How can we have the money to repair these things in a county?"

Wen Tianxiang sighed in his heart. In the officialdom, he felt that things could only be done by his own people. Wen Tianxiang did not pay for this by himself, nor was the court paying for Wen Tianxiang. He just used the resources that the county could apply for, and these things were solved. The only special thing was probably the experts Wen Tianxiang invited from Zhao Jiaxin to write a letter, but Wen Tianxiang was not planning to hide it. He has not discussed with other counties to do the jasmine tea business together. It was just because Wen Tianxiang himself was worried that this thing would not be able to be done, and forced promotion might cause other magistrates to cheat other magistrates.

After looking at the nervous cadre and then at the nervous and confused magistrate. Wen Tianxiang suddenly remembered something and asked Liu, "Do you understand what this Mo Xizi said?"

County Magistrate Liu was stunned and stopped for a while. He said awkwardly: "I don't understand very much!"

His guess was fulfilled, and Wen Tianxiang was greatly disappointed. It was thanks to his private letter to the mansion, asking the mansion to accept the complaint, and as much as possible, it would be cancelled twice. The magistrate did not even know the local dialect. Even if he was angry, Wen Tianxiang did not have anger. There were many such officials on Guangnan West Road, not only Guangnan West Road, but also on the newly recovered land of the Song Dynasty. Even in Guangnan East Road, which was not lost in the Song Dynasty, and in many places on Sichuan Road, this kind of thing was common. The difference was that the Song Dynasty cleaned the barbarians in other places, so that there was no need to worry about dealing with the barbarians in the local area.

Wen Tianxiang told Liu Magistrate Liu about the suggestion made by Mo Xizi. After hearing this, Liu Magistrate was already excited. He asked uneasy: "Prime Minister Wen, this money..."

"We all write reports to the mansion and keep a close eye on it. If it can be done, these swaying iron cable bridges and cableways will be of greater use. I think if those people drive the big bull, they may not dare to pass this swaying bridge."

Liu Zhixian heard Wen Tianxiang’s simple words and looked unbelievable. It was just that it was possible to fundamentally solve the problem, so he did not dare to act rashly anymore. After a moment, Liu Zhixian asked tentatively: “This is the matter of life.”

"Let the relevant departments on both sides start the investigation." Wen Tianxiang said a few instructions and left.

Along the way, he felt unspeakable. He originally thought that Zhao Jiaren asked these ministers to go to the local area for the last term as a political means, just like the previous rule of the rule, the emperor would deport some officials before he returned to heaven. In the family law of the ancestors, the emperor would both return to heaven and the prime minister and the ruling emperor to resign to be the mountain tomb envoy, so as to facilitate the new king to use talents according to his own ideas.

Now he doesn't think so anymore. When he was the prime minister, he only knew some extraordinary things. But when he really looked at it, he realized that it was not exactly the case. Especially in this era of fierce changes, many things seemed absurd, but in fact they were not. In the past, the Song Dynasty only had this place in name only and did not establish a real government in these counties as it is now. Officials did not know what the locals were saying, and such ridiculous things happened.

After Wen Tianxiang arrived here, he asked locals to teach him local dialect every day, learn four words, and be able to say a word. It took almost a year to barely know what the local dialect was. Wen Tianxiang was going to organize all of these for the court after returning to Beijing. He thought that other senior officials who came to the local area would not pretend not to see the local affairs even for themselves.

Adding a few iron chains and building a few buildings was nothing to the Song Dynasty. Even if you do these things on the desolate Guangnan West Road, it would be possible to handle them with just a few orders.

The focus of the Song Dynasty court at this time was the new moves of the Zhao Guan family. Someone from the Ministry of Finance wrote an article at the right time to publish it. It was about the heavy infrastructure pressure faced by the Song Dynasty. The court was carrying too huge expenditures, and even the Zhao Guan family had to take out all their assets to support compulsory education.

Wen Tianxiang saw that his article that firmly supported compulsory education was not published. This article that most people thought compulsory education should be done but could not be done on such a large scale was published. What does this mean? Can someone sing the opposite tune? Before Prime Minister Wen wrote a letter to the "Da Song Daily" to urge him, a number of articles were published one after another. Wen Tianxiang immediately dispelled the idea of ​​urging him. Most of the articles were sayings that there were various requirements to accelerate external expansion and increase the income of the Song Dynasty. Wen Tianxiang knew that this was not someone sang against him, but someone was leading the rhythm!

Seeing these people leading the rhythm, Zhao Jiaren was unhappy. He called Zhao Qian to ask his opinion first. Zhao Qian quickly replied: "Officials, of course I don't think that war itself can make money. Increased income is achieved by increasing labor efficiency, reducing labor costs, and expanding production scale. If a war does not bring back ten thousand ships of spoils, commercial trade can fill the cargo of 100,000 merchant ships in a year."

After hearing that his son had no intention of being chaotic, Zhao Jiaren asked Zhao Qian to leave. Zhao Qian asked quickly: "Officials, do you want to publish something?"

"No need. Don't take the initiative to say anything yourself." Zhao Jiaren said desperately. He really wanted to see what these guys wanted to do. Since he advocated a tough attitude, he must have a place to settle for his interests. He either expanded his territory or robbed him. Zhao Jiaren really wanted to see how big ivory these people could spit out.

Without Zhao Guanjia speaking, all the people began to get involved in this publication for various purposes. The representatives of Mongolia and Eastern Rome were initially surprised. When they saw that their country's name was mentioned, they were so scared that they quickly conveyed messages to their country while collecting information.

Seeing that it was already the New Year's Day of the 339th year of the Song Dynasty, Sheila was waiting for the news of the invoice in Ankara. At this time, all major forces in Ankara region expressed goodwill to Sheila. Even the Eastern Military Region sent people to make clear hints to Sheila. The legion and the legion's family are now an important vote in Eastern Rome. In addition to the legion, more than half of the eastern nobles sent people to express kindness to Sheila's elders. With these, Sheila only felt very at ease.
