Zhang Yunzhao's first question is whether Zhao Ran has carefully considered the consequences of intervening in Qingmiao's money loan.￥f
Zhao Ran knew that his previous plan of being vague in order to get through was useless. This time he had to explain the matter thoroughly. In fact, if you think about it, it should be clear how could such a powerful person as Zhang Yunzhao possibly do it?
Was he fooled? Therefore, Zhao Ran nodded and said: "Xiaodao has already thought clearly about the consequences of doing this, and I am willing to bear it."
"How can you bear it? In the eleventh year of Zhengde, Miao Chenchun, the prefect of Hangzhou, wanted to abolish Qingmiaoqian, but was impeached by the chief envoy for taking bribes, so he was removed from office; in the sixteenth year of Zhengde, Xu Yun, the supervisor of Fuzhou Xingyun Palace, wanted to change Qingmiaoqian's government and became a gangster.
He was assassinated and killed; in the third year of Jiajing, farmers in Mizhi, Shaanxi rioted because of money for young crops, so the government sent troops to annihilate them; in the seventh year of Jiaqing, scholar Liu Jian wanted to reorganize the world's farmland, so he launched a mass attack on the Imperial Procuratorate, and even resigned from office early..."
Zhao Ran broke into a cold sweat as he listened. Following Zhang Yunzhao's examples one by one, he felt as if he was under huge waves and would be drowned in the unfathomable sea if he wasn't careful.
Zhao Ran sorted out his thoughts, thought for a while, and said: "First, Xiaodao only intervened in the Qingmiao loan issue within Guyang County and did not spread to other counties, and the scope of influence would be much smaller; secondly, Wuji
The Taoist Yuan and the Guyang County Government have also approved Xiaodao's plan. Probably because the Xiaodao will not harm the profits of the Taoist Yuan and the government yamen, the resistance is not that great; thirdly, as long as the Taoist sect is willing to support Xiaodao, Xiaodao is not afraid of those
Even if the wealthy gentry wants to use crooked ways to deal with Xiaodao, Xiaodao is confident that they can handle it. To put it bluntly, the wealthy gentry in a county can always handle it no matter how hard they try."
Zhang Yunzhao was noncommittal about Zhao Ran's answer. After pondering for a moment, he asked the second question: Zhao Ran's plan is completely a loss-making business. How much money can he afford to lose?
Once the specific details of the operation were involved, Zhao Ran felt much more relaxed. He calculated an account in front of Zhang Yunzhao and Jing Zhimo, and finally told them that there would be an interest rate difference of two thousand silver per day in a year, and he had such a loss.
He could last for at least ten years. In addition, he told Zhang Yunzhao and Jing Zhimo that he had already negotiated with the County Magistrate Kong and would contract ten thousand acres west of Jundu Mountain for fifty years, which would not only open up wasteland, but also create a money-making hole.
, so in the long run, you won’t actually lose much. If you operate it properly, you can even make a profit.
Jing Zhimo was more interested in the matter of land reclamation. His question was where did the farmers and common people come from. Zhao Ran then talked about his experiences in Changchong Mountain, saying that there were many people farming in the mountains in Changchong Mountain, and the conditions were not good, and
Out of the government's supervision, he planned to persuade these people to move to the west of Jundu Mountain. He believed that he should be able to do it. After all, the wasteland fields west of Jundu Mountain were relatively fertile, the water sources were sufficient and convenient, and the farming conditions were better.
Much better.
In fact, Zhao Ran's real method of persuading the people of Changchong Mountain to relocate will eventually fall on the golden pheasant spirit demon. As long as he persuades the Five Color Master to move, then the people who accept the blessing of the Five Color Master will not have any problems.
Zhang Yunzhao’s next question was how much financial resources Zhao Ran had. Although Zhao Ran himself said that the hole would not be very big, but with the initial expenditure for land reclamation, the amount of money would probably reach tens of thousands taels. This was a situation that even Zhang Yunzhao felt
Headache numbers.
So Zhao Ran told the story again about how he was kidnapped by Buddhist monks and taken to Xia Realm, and finally escaped after all the hardships. He inevitably added some jokes about stealing sheep and causing harm to the temple. He also stuffed the source of his property into it. Anyway,
He has been through the Taoist investigation, and with Pei Zhongze standing in the way, he can say whatever he wants.
Zhang Yunzhao's last question was why Zhao Ran paid such a high price.
Zhao Ran was also unambiguous, and said with awe and dignity: "Although Xiaodao is small in power and low in position, he is worried about the great Ming Dynasty and has always taken the mission of blessing the people. I think this should be the awareness and responsibility that every one of us in the Taoist sect should have!
Money for young crops may seem like a small thing, but its impact is extremely bad. As the saying goes, a thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an ant nest. Xiaodao really can't bear to see the great Ming Dynasty under the protection of my Taoist gate destroyed in just one day. Xiaodao can't do anything big.
I have no choice but to start from small things, start from the side, try to bring more blessings to the people around me, try to make the people appreciate the kindness of Taoism, and let our Taoism faith be passed down forever!"
The loud and clear words were thrown out, and the hall fell silent. Zhang Yunzhao and Jing Zhimo both stared at Zhao Ran's eyes and remained silent for a long time. Zhao Ran gritted his teeth and looked at each other with the two big men, his eyes unblinking.
, I don’t know how long it took, Zhang Yunzhao nodded slowly, and said solemnly: "What a 'consciousness and responsibility', what a 'start from small things, start from the side'... Since you are a small person in the Taoist Academy,
All the Fang Masters have this intention, and I, Zhang Yunzhao, can only do my best to support it."
Zhang Yunzhao was a resolute person, so he immediately told Jing Zhimo to draft an official document allowing Zhao Ran to get involved in Qingmiao's money loan, then stamped it and delivered it to Zhao Ran.
Zhao Ran was overjoyed, holding the official document in his hand and reading it several times, imagining countless merits flying into his own Qi sea.
After thanking Zhang Yunzhao and Jing Zhimo, Zhao Ran was about to stand up and leave, but was stopped by Zhang Yunzhao: "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
"Despite the orders from the prison, Zhao Ran will do his best."
"You must start this matter as soon as possible and strive to roll it out in Guyang County within three months."
"Just don't worry about the prison."
"The process must be recorded in its entirety, and the difficulties encountered must also be written down, including which wealthy gentry and large households are obstructing you, and who are the people in Wujiyuan and the government who are stumbling upon you. Tell me all of them. Any good experiences you have had?
, tell me if there are any lessons that need to be paid attention to, and they cannot be omitted or ignored."
"yes."
"In the past three months, Zhao Zhiran has been responsible for this matter in Guyang County. Zhimo went to Pingwu, Shiquan, and Jiangyou counties to get familiar with the situation in each county. You should communicate more with each other. Once Guyang County
If the green crop money project is successful, it will be implemented throughout the government!"
Zhao Ran was startled, and then he was overjoyed. If Zhang Yunzhao really followed his method to implement the youth money reform in the whole government, he, Zhao Ran, would definitely get involved. Who knows how much merit he would be able to earn by then!
Compared with Zhao Ran's surprise, Jing Zhimo was much more hesitant. He wanted to dissuade him but didn't know what to say. He just said: "Prison Court..."
Zhang Yunzhao sighed and said to Jing Zhimo: "Zhao Zhiran is right, the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by ant nests. Since our Dao Sect has protected the Ming Dynasty for so many years, we cannot just watch the world gradually collapse. In the past few years, you have also
We have seen that people everywhere are becoming more and more miserable. They cannot survive, so they have to resort to crooked ways. Why are those 'Eight Immortals Sect', 'Five Directions Sect' and 'Three Puritans Sect' springing up like mushrooms after a rain? Why are there so many people?
Many people are bewitched by it because they really can’t survive. If we want to rectify our roots and protect the rule of our Taoism, we must let the people have enough to eat, wear warm clothes, and let them have fields to cultivate and houses to rest. Money for young crops is not
The culprit of all problems, but it is definitely one of them. I feel that I need to cheer up every day, so I will take this as a way to cheer up!"
Jing Zhimo still shook his head: "The obstacles in the prison hospital are too big to be easy to deal with. You are almost sixty. If things don't work out, won't your life be ruined?"
Zhang Yunzhao smiled: "We who belong to the Taoist sect should take the Taoist sect as our top priority. How can we regret our own lives when things happen to us? Zhimo, I know you have good intentions, but I have made up my mind. I must do this. If I can't do it, Just keep doing it, and if you still fail, let Zhao Zhiran do it!"
Jing Zhimo couldn't persuade Zhang Yunzhao, so he had to sigh secretly. After bidding farewell to Zhao, he returned to the office where he temporarily lived, thinking about it and sighing until night. At three o'clock in the morning, Jing Zhimo still couldn't fall asleep, so he got up and put on his clothes He put on his clothes, came to the courtyard, and walked back and forth under the moonlight.
After another half an hour, Jing Zhimo finally stopped, returned to the room, held an oil lamp, polished his pen, and wrote a letter home on paper. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
