This is really a situation where people are sitting at home and the pot comes from the sky.

Facing Sima Guang's confident questioning, Zhang Fei was a fool. He really didn't know where this old man got his confidence.

After a moment, he said with great grievance: "Sister Sima, not to mention that I didn't create that police station. Even if it has something to do with me, you can't blame me!"

Sima Guang was already stunned by Wang Anshi. He just wanted to find someone to yell at. He wanted to find Wen Yanbo and the others, so why not yell in pairs? He insisted: "This newspaper is distributed by your bookstore, don't say anything."

, you didn’t know about it beforehand?”

Zhang Fei spread his hands and said, "So what if I knew in advance?"

Sima Guang puffed his beard and stared: "Don't you know how to persuade him?"

"I hope Academician Sima can give me some advice, how should I persuade him?" Zhang Fei immediately humbly asked for advice.

"If I knew, I would still use you.!"

Halfway through, Sima Guang sighed in annoyance: "That's right. If I could persuade him, he wouldn't be Wang Jiefu."

"Bachelor Sima, please take a seat."

"well."

Sima Guang sighed again and sat down.

Zhang Fei poured him another cup of tea and said, "Sister Sima, please have some tea."

Sima Guang took it and poured it into his mouth. He hadn't even drank a glass of water since morning.

Zhang Fei saw that he was drinking in a hurry, so he poured another glass for him.

Sima Guang wanted to pour it into his mouth again, but the teacup was already at his lips. He suddenly glanced at Zhang Fei, took a sip, put down the teacup, and said, "Sit down."

Zhang Fei put down the teapot and sat down.

Sima Guang asked calmly: "What do you think?"

Zhang Fei remained silent.

Sima Guang looked at him suddenly, "What? Do you support this recruitment law?"

Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "I don't know."

"You are usually very insightful." Sima Guang looked at Zhang Fei suspiciously.

Zhang Fei said: "In fact, I think the most beneficial situation for the people is to completely abolish corvee. Without increasing taxes, if the court needs strength, it can only spend money to hire people. After all, the people have already paid taxes."

Sima Guang nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! It should be so."

Zhang Fei said: "But the disaster of three redundancies has taken up most of the imperial government's finances. Where can we get the money? But if we can take the right medicine, we must streamline the officials. During the Qingli period, Fan Gong wanted to do this, but what was the result?"

Sima Guang was silent for a while and slapped his hand heavily on the table.

Zhang Fei added: "It is precisely because the main problem has not been solved that no matter how this law is changed, various problems will arise. The reason is very simple. The court has no money, but people have to do it, so the people can only do it.

Free service."

Sima Guang said: "His recruitment method is to collect all the money from the people first, and then hire the people to serve. What's the point of this? Is he not giving money to the people but giving money to the country?"

"no!"

Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "But what can we do? The financial problem cannot be solved, and the exploitation of the people will inevitably increase day by day. Even if Wang Xueshi's reform is prevented, the situation may not be better than the implementation of the recruitment law.

Unless Bachelor Sima can guarantee to the officials that the three redundant problems can be solved in one fell swoop, then I am willing to take the lead and do my best for Bachelor Sima."

Sima Guang fell silent.

After all, this recruitment law only allows government households to contribute a small amount of money every year. If the number of officials is streamlined, it will directly cut off people's livelihood.

Wang Anshi was so fierce that he didn't dare to do this. How could Sima Guang do it?

Before coming, Sima Guang was angry, but after talking to Zhang Fei, he felt frustrated.

His idea of ​​reducing expenditure is to streamline officials and reduce taxes, but he also knows that he can't do it now.

The problem seems to have become unsolvable.

Zhang Fei glanced at him and said, "If you really want to stop the evil government, you can only protect the people. Otherwise, the recruitment law may hurt the people, but the service law will definitely hurt the people."

Sima Guang said: "The law of legal system?"

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "It also includes judicial reform. On the one hand, the government is responsible for tax collection, but on the other hand, it is responsible for the administration of justice. Will he find himself guilty?

If Academician Sima is really serious about serving the people, he should provide action support and use justice to defend the rights and interests of the people, instead of indulging in verbal disputes with Academician Wang, which is meaningless."

This sentence really woke up the dreamer. Sima Guang opened his eyes. Yes, yes, although this official adopted Wang Jiefu's suggestion, he also entrusted judicial reform to me. Didn't he just hope that I would use justice to check and balance Wang Jiefu? I

I'm so confused that I forgot such an important thing.

But thinking about it, he became depressed again, "This judicial reform is of great importance. It needs to be done slowly and gradually, and it is not advisable to rush it. But Wang Jiefu has made one law after another, and they have not yet been implemented. Here is the recruitment law. I

How can I keep up with this?"

The only martial arts in the world that is fast is unbeatable, but Wang Anshi is too fast.

Sima Guang can't even see the tail lights.

Zhang Fei chuckled: "There's no rush, no rush, Master Wang has just promulgated it, and there's still some time before it's implemented. I think there's still plenty of time."

"With Wang Jiefu's temperament, he won't leave much time for me."

Thinking of this, Sima Guang became restless and said, "Okay, okay, I'll leave first."

He hurriedly walked out the door.

"I'll send it to Bachelor Sima."

After he was sent to the door, Zhang Fei said again: "Bachelor Sima, would you like me to send a carriage to take you back?"

"No!"

Sima Guang waved his hand, "I'm not in a hurry for this moment."

On this warm spring day, he didn't like riding in a carriage.

If nothing unexpected happened, the old man should have gone to find Fu Bi. Zhang Fei smiled and just turned around when he suddenly saw a sneaky figure hiding in the corner over there.

It's not who Wang Anshi is.

Zhang Fei was dumbfounded. Are these two old men playing hide and seek?

Welcome Wang Anshi into the hall.

Wang Anshi laughed and asked: "Is old man Sima here to complain to you, or is he here to ask you for countermeasures, or is he here to vent his anger on you?"

Zhang Fei was immediately happy and said, "All in."

Wang Anshi laughed and asked: "Then how did you respond to him?"

Zhang Fei said: "I suggest that Bachelor Sima quickly complete the judicial reform to check and balance Bachelor Wang."

"Just as I expected."

Wang Anshi said proudly.

Zhang Fei wondered: "Scholar Wang doesn't seem worried at all."

Wang Anshi smiled and said: "I, Wang Anshi, are upright and upright. I am afraid of no one and will not be afraid of the judiciary."

Zhang Fei smiled and nodded, but he knew in his heart that Wang Anshi was not afraid. It did not mean that the judiciary really did not hinder him, but that he firmly believed that the legal system would not succeed.

If those people are willing to accept the rule of law, they will be more willing to accept his New Deal.

"Then what are the orders from Scholar Wang's visit?" Zhang Fei asked curiously.

He had talked with Wang Anshi before, and he didn't have any good suggestions on the recruitment method.

Wang Anshi laughed and said, "I heard that you recently bought a big house."

Zhang Fei's expression changed and he quickly explained: "I can buy it with a loan."

"You must be short of money, right?"

"Can I not be short of it?"

Zhang Fei cried and cried: "Xueshi Wang doesn't know what he is doing. This house has emptied the wallets of all six members of my family!"

Wang Anshi was surprised and asked: "There are six people in your family?"

The corner of Zhang Fei's mouth twitched, "My two ladies, my father-in-law and eldest brother and sister-in-law over there, aren't they exactly six people?"

Who are you looking down on? In a few years, the population of my family will exceed yours.

How could Wang Anshi believe that you were crying in front of me? But he didn't point it out. Instead, he followed Zhang Fei's words and said, "That's good, I'm just here to give you money."

Zhang Fei said in surprise: "Giving money? Are you asking me to file a lawsuit?"

Wang Anshi said: "Does your firm make money from litigation?"

"Well, I can also earn some money."

"The most important thing is to make money?"

"Tax calculation."
