After reading the memorial, Zhao Xu had a very strange expression on his face.

Wen Yanbo was curious about what Wang Ju wrote, which made the emperor look like this. Not only Wen Yanbo was curious, but Wang Anshi and others were also curious.

Zhao Xu handed the memorial to Wen Yanbo, not that Lao Wen had a higher official position than Wang Anshi, but that Lao Wen had the most qualifications.

Comrade Lao Wen finished reading it, his expression was also very strange.

Wang Anshi couldn't help but become even more curious.

Wang Ju is about to leave the capital and go to the front line. He wrote the divine horse, which made the two of them look like this.

Although Lao Wen was dissatisfied with Wang Anshi, he had to do what he had to do on the surface. Seeing that Wang Anshi was curious, he handed it to Wang Anshi again.

Wang Anshi was looking at it, and Zhao Xu had already started asking: "Wang Qing, does it really work?"

Wang Ju wrote about smallpox.

The four major harms in ancient times were smallpox, malaria, tuberculosis, and blood-sucking worms.

Plague was not harmful in ancient China. Most of the plagues that have occurred in the past dynasties were fierce malaria, which is disease 2. As for the word cancer, it has not yet appeared, but this disease has occurred. Although there was no serious industrial pollution in this era, most ordinary people use pickles as the main dish, and this salt has not been processed with toxic "natural salt", so the proportion of cancer is even small. However, cancer is called malignant and toxic carbuncle at this time, so how many people die of cancer cannot be counted.

Among them, Tianhua is the first of the four evils, and many children die under smallpox every year.

So Wang Ju deliberately wrote a memorial before leaving, saying that he was smallpox.

In the memorial, Wang Ju first talked about the human body's self-healing function and self-immune function.

After cutting the earthworm lees into several segments, they will not die, and they will even grow new earthworm lees quickly. Due to different evolution directions, people will not be able to do it. Put people in the waist in two segments. You will immediately see the King of Yama. However, people also have a self-repair function. For a simple example, if you cut a hole in your hand, as long as it is not a serious infection, it will heal itself. However, this speed is relatively slow.

The same is true for immune function. For example, some people suffer from severe wind and cold, and they will not be easily infected with this malignant wind and cold after recovery.

It is precisely these two principles that vaccination with cowpox can be used to avoid infection with smallpox.

Wang Ju explained cowpox in the memorial, but did not explain what evolution is.

Anyway, with this basis, it can be promoted to avoid many people dying from smallpox every year.

If there is no accident, in fact, if you want to say cruelly, you will die. Anyway, the population has gradually become the most serious crisis in the Song Dynasty.

However, Wang Ju now has other plans. As long as this plan is successful, the increasing number of people will not only be a crisis, but an opportunity.

This is from the public standpoint.

In terms of selfishness, this morning, Wang Ju was about to leave. He heard that a neighbor had a child who had smallpox. The family cried so hard that he cried like rain, which made Wang Ju worry too. It was nothing else, and he had children, how could he not worry?

If you have nothing to do with yourself, just take it as a stubborn person. If you have nothing to do with yourself, can you still hold it?

So before leaving the capital, I snatched some time to write this memorial.

Wang Ju said: "Your Majesty, it works."

"You have so many strange knowledge?"

"Look more and listen more and think more." Wang Ju replied, and said again: "Your Majesty, I'm leaving."

After saying that, I turned on the horse, because of my skillful movements and flexible body, the posture of riding the horse was very free and easy, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Zhao Xu turned his head and whispered to Wang Anshi: "The northwest is full of worries."

It has nothing to do with Wang Ju's action of getting on the horse, but this memorial, Wang Ju is about to go to the northwest, and he still has the mood to care about smallpox, which shows that Wang Ju is confident in dealing with this crisis.

As Wang Ju left, the people in the capital were worried and expectant.

In fact, Wang Ju's profession was even more serious than he thought. If he won, the Song people would gradually pick up their lost confidence. If he lost, he might even be able to drag down Wang Shao's Hehuang Kaibing.

…………

Wang Ju came to Luoyang. Xiao Su immediately met with Xichen for Wang Ju, but Xiao Su took Wang Ju to a grass market outside the city.

The reform of Fangchang Hedu is to place some small and medium-sized grass markets, non-strategic river markets, as well as workshops, mining, etc. that have poor management and deficits, after a special person's valuation, the merchant will pay a deposit and conduct an anonymous auction after the higher price.

But this grass market does not include those super-large grass markets that are deviating from market towns. Those grass markets cannot be played like this, and they involve too many people and interests.

These small and medium-sized grass markets are actually the farmers' markets in Wang Ju's previous life. Every episode every three or five days, the surrounding people bring fruits, vegetables and specialties, and small vendors also bring daily necessities to the grass market, either buying, selling or trading with each other.

After the merchants were auctioned, they sent their servants to manage and collect taxes. However, if there were di stores and restaurants in Caoshi, merchants were not allowed to collect taxes and continued to be managed and collected by the state.

After the implementation of this reform, many people agreed.

The reason is simple. Before the reform, the court also collected taxes. It was sent to collect taxes. Not all clerks would be harsh on the people. However, because of the chaos of taxation, 90% of the income from taxation was entered into the pockets of various clerks. After the reform, you clerks were liberated from then on. As the law of exemption was gradually implemented, the benefits would be greater, because every reduction of clerks would be equivalent to saving a expenditure for the country.

When it comes to private operations, there will be harsh conditions.

So when the execution was first performed, there were still many opposition voices. However, it gradually disappeared.

The reason is still very simple. These people who come to trade are ordinary people and small merchants. Just like Wang Jucai comes to Wangjiazhai, a penny is good. You can charge randomly, but I can not come. Some people even would rather go for more than ten miles than pay a few cents of tax. No one comes to trade, so where can they get taxes?

This forced all businessmen to collect taxes reasonably, and some smart businessmen even came up with some names to attract everyone to trade.

Don’t underestimate the income from these grass market auctions. Often, a small grass market auction only earns only a few hundred guan, or even only one or two hundred guan. Those grass markets with a large scale only a few thousand guan.

However, how many grass markets existed in the entire Song Dynasty? A small amount of grass market accumulated into a large amount. Sands gathered into towers. The income from the auction of this grass market alone accounted for half of the Fangchang Hedu revenue.

However, the Fangchang Hedu reform is not a complete reform.

The most serious one is the valuation process. Often, due to the chaos in the original assets and accounts management, the valuation cannot be valuated fairly. Even the powerful and the valuation clerks join forces to deceive officials. The valuation is seriously too low and the actual property of the court is transferred.

This is also inevitable. Not to mention these state-owned assets, even Wang Ju's bamboo paper workshop has grown larger and larger, and there has been serious chaos in management and accounts last year, so Li Zhen deliberately came to the capital this spring to ask Wang Ju about the solution.

After Li Zhen returned, he immediately rectified it. But now it cannot be said that it has been completely solved, so it can only be said that it has not been expanded.

It turned out that Wang Ju also proposed that the dock in Qianzhou, which was the largest inland river dock in the Song Dynasty. It was the largest inland river dock in terms of scale, the most advanced technology, and the largest number of craftsmen. However, it was a state-owned dock, which specialized inland river ships for the imperial court to transport.

Therefore, when you are busy, you can't breathe, and you can spend several months in your spare time. If you also reform, for example, when you are free, you can get private work in this dock. First, you can increase the treatment of craftsmen, and second, you can also bring some income to the country.

However, in that case, management and accounts will inevitably cause serious chaos, so Wang Ju did not mention it.

Also, 90% of the reason why these prison pits and mines are deficient is that the clerks are corrupt and have nothing to do with these clerks after the auction. So can these clerks be happy? So they also make trouble and protest below.

However, their voice is very small, and it was implemented before Wang Anshi's reform, which was equivalent to cutting off relations with Wang Anshi's reform, so these people have never been a climax. However, they gave many craftsmen a chance, which should be consistent with the "benevolence and humanity" policy of the Song Dynasty.

Furthermore, it will be executed before the Immunity Law is implemented, otherwise it will create a large number of "laid-off workers", which will cause controversy.

It should be a successful reform, whether it is below or in the upper class public opinion, more praise or less oppose it.

Walking in the bustling grass market, Xiao Su said with emotion: "Zi'an, this is the real reform. I am not against reform. If it is like this, why should I oppose it?"

Wang Ju really smiled bitterly.

How many "reforms" can be found?

Xiao Su said again: "Look at Kapok again, and lay off troops. These benign reforms are not made by Zi'an. If the hero does not ask the source, why does the officials not value it?"

Wang Ju expressed his shame: "Ziyou, it was not my suggestion that I would dare to greedy for this merit. As for Kapok, it was introduced by the ancients to Lingnan. His Royal Highness the eldest princess thought of Libu, and then I noticed Kapok, and then Mr. Jiefu expanded it to benefit the country and the people. I dare not greedy for this merit."

However, Wang Ju was secretly happy in his heart. With Xiao Su, the "opposition" who advocated him, he would win over more people in the future. Without anyone to support him and without many people to support him, can he reform safely and smoothly?

The two returned to Luoyang City.

Looking at the Luoyang city gate, Wang Ju sighed slightly in his heart.

He also had a crazy idea to move the capital!

In order to erase the power of his second brother in Kaifeng City, Zhao Kuangyin deliberately sent Zhao Defang's father-in-law Jiao Jixun to stay in Luoyang and rebuild Luoyang City. Then, under the name of returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he took his ministers to Luoyang and proposed to move the capital in Luoyang.

Unfortunately, Zhao Kuangyi used the saying that the country is in virtue but not in danger of stopping it. Then Zhao Kuangyin went to the third family three times. When Zhao Kuangyi saw that it was not good, he used his ultimate move, the candlelight and axe shadow!

But now this capital has a useful function.

In the entire capital, there are many powerful and wealthy people colluding with powerful scholars and officials. Once the capital is moved, a major purge will inevitably be carried out on these forces, which is very beneficial to the country.

Of course, it is impossible to move the capital to Chang'an. Whether it is Sanmenxia or the deteriorating Weishui, it seriously affects the canal transportation. However, there is no problem in moving the capital to Luoyang. Re-compile the Luoshui River, bypass Kaifeng City, dig a new canal, communicate with the old Bian River, or communicate directly with Luoyang, will not affect the canal transportation.

Moreover, Luoyang has the danger of Hulao Pass, which is closer to Shaanxi. Even if it does not change, when the Jin people head south, they will be guarded by Hulao Pass and can quickly transfer the powerful Western army to Luoyang to participate in the battle. The Northern Song Dynasty will not go to an end, at least it will not destroy the Jin people.

But the circle of interests involved was too large, so Fan Zhongyan and others also proposed to move the capital to Luoyang, but failed.

Therefore, many times Wang Ju is helpless, and some can see it, but cannot achieve it.

He sighed and then entered the city.

Zhang Feng happened to arrive.

Then discuss it immediately.

Zhang Feng was still very happy. Wang Ju did not forget his old friend. After a while, he was not very polite and went straight to the point.

"Zi'an, this trip to the west may not be so dangerous. In my opinion, Zi'an must have two reliances in his heart."

"Tell me, look."

"The Xinjiang Ball Fort has become the Anjiang Fort of our dynasty. The two gates are equal to closing them all, which is a favorable side to our dynasty."

"Well said, what about the other reliance?"

"Dong Jie."

Dong Wen, this is Wang Ju’s biggest trump card! (To be continued...)
