Chapter 282 This woman should only be found in the sky
The crowd pushed and shoved to the side of the road to see the current situation where the master of the Taoist was sent to him. Most of the people here had a good reputation, "to the south of the Huai River, to the north of Yang, to the thousands of miles of marches." This is the current situation after the Yellow River seized the Huai River. The flooding range is Huaiyin Qizhou County, Shanyang, Yancheng, Gaoyou, Baoying, Jiangdu, Taizhou, and Xinghua, which is also in the Huaiyang area, and the disaster situation is no less than that in Henan.
"It's not that I don't report it. The time has not arrived. It's still the censor who takes effect quickly..." Amid their scolding, the escort team headed north and walked straight to the canal to Qingjiangpu. From below the Qinghe River, the canal was not heavily blocked. These imperial envoys wearing flying fish wearing embroidered spring swords were upright on the deck, but Yu Biao's group.
On the four floors of the tower several feet across the bank, Jia Cong stood by the window, looking down and looking out, the canals that run north and south and the Yellow River that run east and west are all at the end of the plain, with vast smoke and waves. In the south section, there were only official boats, and no merchants were seen, but the north was to the west, until the invisible Taoyuan Suqian, there were countless river work along the bank, and the sunset gradually approached the west mountain, and there were no acres of fertile land.
To this day, the work of lifting the case files of Huai'an Prefecture has been basically completed. Except for Wu Zhou, there are no major cases. In order to improve efficiency, he ordered the case files of the prefectures and counties where our prefectures are located to be moved to the government office to brush them. There are two employees of Guan Chaosheng and Miaoyu, Jia Cong's workload has been greatly reduced. Before the Jinyiwei arrived, he was able to inspect the embankment of the Zhongjiazhuangjia in Qinghe.
"Congratulations to Brother Shanhai, Brother Shanhai for helping our family. Huai'an is just around the corner, and this is our contribution." Liu Zhiyuan took the credit with great pride and pointed out to Jiangshan: "Brother Shanhai is good at everything, and his official career is unlimited. Master Zhang doesn't deal with you. Our family knows that this matter is indispensable to the help of Godfather, but... the money for governing the river is not enough..."
Jia Congchun used his first half as farts. When he heard the back, he thought tone: "Silver... Could it be that the emperor's palace needs to be overhauled?"
"Hehe..." Liu Zhiyuan didn't speak perfunctorily.
Jia Cong's heart was calm. That letter was probably a temporary change. He sent Liu Zhiyuan to come down, and in addition to supervising him, he might have made money. To say that the emperor was simple to become stupid, how many emperors could restrain millions of squandering?
"What my father-in-law said is very good, I dare not take on your old credit..." Jia Cong said in a difficult situation: "I have a good word to remind my father-in-law not to arouse public anger, otherwise the road below will be difficult, and there are a group of officials calling out..."
Liu Zhiyuan looked straight, waved his sleeves and sat down, making a gesture of invitation. The tower was four floors and one room, quiet and elegant, and the height was extremely cold. He asked, "What kind of recipe does Brother Shan Hai have to cure this disease?"
Whether it is knowledge, methods of doing things, or the intention of preparing for the future, Liu Zhiyuan admires Jia Cong a little.
"This is a good prescription for treating diseases. No matter whether you look, listen, ask, or feel, or have a large or small oral pulse, there are masters and assistants, and there are kings and ministers. The masters and ministers should be assisted, and the medicine can only take effect if the kings and ministers assist each other."
"Now Qingjiangpu is a small number of people, so collecting taxes here is just a supplement. In addition, the river work has not been completed, and the merchants can only escape. The real master is in Yangzhou below, Lianghuai Salt Tax. A big salt merchant can just pick a little, and a hundred thousand is a small amount..."
Eunuch Liu narrowed his eyes. He was not stupid. If the salt tax was so easy to collect, why didn’t Jia Cong take it? This matter involves too much and is too complicated. "Haha... don’t hurry, take it slowly. Our family is also hard. The emperor has to do it, and we can’t offend everyone to death. It depends on what His Majesty meant..."
"Eunuch Liu misunderstood. This is why you don't understand many methods of civil servants..." Jia Cong came up with ideas one by one: "Now the salt introduction is called the gang salt. It has been done for hundreds of years, with many loopholes and many disadvantages. According to my method, if it is replaced with the citation salt system, it can always be collected. If the troops are not bloody, they will have no merits or demerits..."
Jia Cong said this and said this. Liu Zhiyuan's eyes lit up when he heard it. He thought that what was feasible. He said that this person also castrated himself in Beijing, but his luck was much better than the top martial arts scholar. The court severely punished the man who castrated himself at that time, but he had just met Emperor Yongle ascended the throne and was able to pardon and participated in the selection. Because he was proficient in poetry and books, he survived to the Imperial Horse Prison and the Sili Prison.
Not only are they born as gangsters at the bottom, they are not in the normal track of society, but also in the pathological condition and psychological perversion after cerebralization. What this kind of eunuch most hopes for is the respect of others and their own dignity. This is also their reverse scale. Ordinary officials are trembling when they see the emperor and polite superiors, and they can not respect themselves when necessary. The eunuchs come out but want to be face-saving. Typical characteristics include being petty, greedy for money, comparing, collecting treasures, and being art-like. Liu Zhiyuan is all in it.
Jia Cong had an equal relationship with him. Now this sounds really "heartfelt". Liu Zhiyuan was very happy. Jia Cong breathed a sigh of relief and finally drove Liu Zhiyuan out of Huaian again!
Jia Cong did this, first of all, didn't want him to interfere in his inspection of the river. What kind of knowledge can the eunuch in the deep palace have about the river? Leaving him is just a mess. Secondly, his acceptance of bribes has already had an impact on his previous reputation. Although now the salt of the two Huaihe River patrols is empty and the governor is in charge, he can also write a letter to propose to allocate a payment from there, but the blame will be given to Liu Zhiyuan. After all, the heavens are angry and people are resentful? Liu Zhiyuan is the best candidate to take the blame for him.
First, Liu Zhiyuan would not have any trouble. Wanli's tax and mining supervision made the world uneasy, the people cursed, officials were angry, and even the eunuchs paid only one-tenth of the money they collected. The emperor was kept in the dark, but there was nothing wrong with these eunuchs returning to the palace. In terms of theory and official rules, there was only eunuchs.
Secondly, even if Liu Zhiyuan was greedy, as long as he was allocated a small amount here, Yangzhou salt merchants who were comparable to the storage capacity of the imperial treasury, would not have left the Huaiyang River channel short.
This was the only compromise that Jia Cong thought of. He had planned it for a long time. After all, he was a civil servant and was very scheming. But at this time, Liu Zhiyuan probably still regarded him as a good friend, and he would not have thought about how many twists Jia Cong's intestines had turned.
Having settled half of the money raising, Jia Cong returned to the tower to listen to the report from Zhihe.
...
Qingjiangpu and Qinghe were only a few hours away. Outside Qinghe County, hundreds of acres of fertile land became curved shoals after the flood receded.
The Huai'an prefect took charge. After several days of porridge and labor-for-relief, hundreds of thousands of refugees were placed. However, all this still made Lu Lianxian feel very upset. A few days ago, he wrote a letter with Jia Cong and asked for another 800,000 yuan. If this money was missing, Lu Lianxian was really afraid of the riots of these 100,000 refugees and the River Trade Union.
Human resources, material resources, financial resources, and on-site investigation are a long-term job involving all aspects. According to his and Jia Cong's estimates, it will take at least one year, otherwise the river from Luoma Lake to Hongze Lake will not be cured at all.
It was very tired on this day. When I returned to the city to rest, General Lu changed into casual clothes and called his followers to visit the Longwang Temple temple fair in a private room. However, I saw that there were few people and the common people, so there was no prosperity in the past.
"In half a month, we can't think of going on the waterway. The canal transportation has been blocked, and only official ships are allowed to travel..." Baozhu sighed.
Ruizhu said: "I heard it was an order issued by the Hedaoya. Grandma, the people here are still rumored. Mr. Cong became the living Baolong map. The previous dynasty Haigang Peak was the one who handled the case, and the one who handled the case was elusive..."
Qin Keqing entered the temple gracefully without saying a word.
