Liu Jian's approval did not make Li Dongyang and Xie Qian relax.

They naturally knew, even if Liu Jian agreed, what?

This is a big deal, not a joke. Mr. Liu has already made plans to be crushed to pieces.

Seeing Liu Jian crawling on the ground, Emperor Hongzhi's eyes were blurred.

In fact, Emperor Hongzhi was also a little undecided.

He knew very well that it would solve the biggest hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty, but...

It is really difficult to do it. Liu Jian will be the first to bear the brunt, because Liu Jian is the chief assistant of the cabinet, and all the pressure will be directed at him.

Fang Jifan said it easily, but the problem is that everyone will not look for him as his prince consort at all.

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian have always been close to each other with Liu Jian, and they couldn't help but hesitate at this time.

Finally, they fell to the ground: "I'm waiting..."

Afterwards, I actually choked up and didn't know what to say.

Fang Jifan stood aside, sighing in his heart.

Liu Jian is still a person with feelings.

As for Liu Dongyang and Xie Qian, they are quite loyal. In history, these three people have no bad reputation. This history may have a bias, but it is probably still a matter of fact. A pure bad person cannot get a good reputation. A pure good person like Fang Jifan will probably be treated gently by Qianqiu Shibi.

Of course, if someone dares to say bad things about Fang Jifan in the Ming Dynasty Records, Fang Jifan promises to kill him.

Even if you wait a hundred years later, anyone will be blind.

What are you afraid of with so many disciples?

Of course, it is indeed difficult to accomplish this feat.

As the end of the day, everyone knew that the current serious land annexation problem was and understood the solution.

But... even when the Ming Dynasty was destroyed and the world was almost destroyed, no one was willing to solve this problem.

However, in the Yongzheng year of the Qing Dynasty, the gentry and gentry were all paid for food.

This is certainly because Yongzheng was a ruthless man, but the fundamental reason is that the Ming Dynasty was a real emperor and literati and officials ruled the world. The basis of the Ming Dynasty's rule was originally something that relied on the gentry and cut down on themselves, and it did not exist.

On the surface, the Qing Dynasty maintained the national policy of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact, Yongzheng's basic foundation came from the Later Jin people. The so-called favored scholars and officials were just outsiders after all. Therefore, Yongzheng could raise the butcher knife to the rebels without hesitation. Whoever did not accept it would kill you and let you shut up, and you had to shut up obediently.

Therefore, playing this in the Ming Dynasty is like playing with fire, which is very risky.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi let out a sigh. He raised his eyes and looked at Fang Jifan and said, "Okay, Fang Qing family, I want to hear how you can pay food together."

Fang Jifan became serious and said, "Your Majesty, why are the gentry unwilling to pay the food?"

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned. He had never thought about this question.

Faced with Emperor Hongzhi's reaction, Fang Jifan seemed to have known it for a long time, and then continued: "This is because the gentry may not be able to benefit themselves after paying food. Therefore, when the gentry in the world heard about paying food, they would inevitably rise up and attack them."

"So to solve the fundamental problem now, they must know that the court takes it from the people and uses it for the people. To do this, they can truly taste the sweetness. At that time, even if there is a prison sentence, their resistance will not be so fierce."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned, thoughtful, and said, "Now, isn't it taken from the people and used for the people?"

Fang Jifan was silent for a long time, and then said, "The son-in-law doesn't want to explore this issue in depth. After all, things can only be solved one by one. What the son-in-law said is to use it for the people lies in the benefits of being visible and touched."

"Okay." Emperor Hongzhi kept frowning: "You keep talking."

"So, we can try it in a county first, at least to minimize resistance. If this gentry collects food together, it can be solved in the county, and then slowly promote it. We might as well call the county a model county."

Model County...

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but be stunned. Fang Jifan could always bring new things to them.

But the most important thing now is that the problem can be solved.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Which county can?"

Fang Jifan thought about it and said, "It is better to start from near, rather than starting from Dingxing County, Baoding Prefecture, which is close enough to the capital. Once something happens, the court can solve it immediately to prevent the situation from escalating."

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "The new city is only a hundred miles away from Dingxing, and it is indeed no problem.

Fang Jifan said again: "In addition, we have to send a brave and knowledgeable person. After thinking about it, it is more suitable for my disciple Ouyang Zhi to go there."

"Ouyang Zhi..."

Everyone looked at each other.

This Fang Jifan really invests in his capital.

My chief disciple was sent there. Isn’t it clear that it was to announce to the people of the world that, yes, this bad idea was made by our Fang Jifan, come and beat me, stupid guys.

Liu Jian and others thought Fang Jifan would be a turtle, but who knew that Fang Jifan was still very responsible?

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows: "Ouyang Zhi is a Hanlin scholar, with a noble status, and only a small county magistrate?"

Fang Jifan said seriously: "He is still a Hanlin scholar. Doing this also shows the court's importance to Dingxing County. In addition, the ministers dared to believe that the gentry could not use food to Dingxing to establish this quotation. It would be better to... find a clear vision first, rather than raising funds."

This is a good idea, at least it won't arouse the gentry's disgust at all.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "What else?"

"And..." Fang Jifan laughed and said, "Also, it depends on Ouyang Zhi, to see if he can withstand the pressure."

"As long as you push it over, the matter will be over. If you can't push it over, you will lose everything. My son will be deemed to be this disciple."

After saying that, Fang Jifan glanced at Liu Jian and others, and then said, "And Liu Gong and others are afraid that the future will not be easy."

Emperor Hongzhi wandered: "Are you sure?"

Fang Jifan said, "Only 30% sure." After taking a deep breath, he said, "But... if it can be done, it will be a good move for thousands of years. Your Majesty, give it a try. Even if you lose, it will be fine."

This means that it is very clear that anyone else dies, even if he sacrifices, he can even dismiss the cabinet's grandson or even dismiss Ouyang Zhi and other culprits to calm the anger of the people of the world.

Fang Jifan obviously wanted to make a desperate bet. He would rather go home and sell sweet potatoes than to become an official than to make decisions for the people.

Letting Ouyang Zhi go obviously represents Fang Jifan's determination. If he can't do it, he will go home and sell the house with him.

Emperor Hongzhi showed a look of shame on his face, and he couldn't help saying, "What are you talking nonsense?"

Fang Jifan was ashamed: "The son died ten thousand times."

Emperor Hongzhi's face turned solemn and said sternly: "I want to try it because I know that once I succeed, this move will benefit the country and the people and benefit the people. If I lose money, I will take this responsibility. My ancestors and clans have not been criticized by others. Do you think I am really seeking fame and just want to be a saint in the eyes of others? There are also many people in my ancestors and clans who are secretly called foolish. They can, but I can do it. You said you are 30% sure..."

Emperor Hongzhi stood up, with his hands behind his back, looking at the floor-to-ceiling glass outside Fengtian Hall, but the light in his eyes seemed to reveal a sense of determination, and his voice trembled: "Try it, Ouyang Zhi is not afraid of being ruined, Liu Qing, Xie Qing, Li Qing is willing to advance and retreat with me, even you Fang Jifan..."

Fang Jifan's face turned red in an instant: "Your Majesty, don't use junctions, this junction sounds a bit cold."

Emperor Hongzhi said seriously: "You Fang Jifan is willing to try it for the people of the world. Okay, then try it, and start with Dingxing County."

Liu Jian and others were thrilled in their hearts, but at this moment, there was nothing else to say, and they said, "My emperor's wise!"

Emperor Hongzhi turned around and smiled at Fang Jifan: "I really want to see what you call taking from the people and using them for the people!"

……………………

Ouyang Zhi was a little confused.

The magistrate of Zhengding County raised funds from the gentry of Zhengding County under the order.

Why do you feel like you are insulting the IQ of the gentry in Zhengding County?

Of course, Ouyang Zhi hadn't reacted yet.

Fang Jifan sat in the hall and looked at Ouyang Zhi.

He likes this guy, just like himself, he is honest and honest. As expected, he teaches any kind of disciple.

Fang Jifan said in a deep tone: "Ouyang Zhi, are you listening?"

“…”

After a long time, Ouyang Zhi said, "Oh, Master, you said."

Fang Jifan said, "I will tell you slowly, you will understand it yourself." He paused: "This matter is important and it is related to the future of my Ming Dynasty. Once you fail, you will be disgraced. From then on, I am afraid that the official will not be able to be successful, so I have to leave a devil for thousands of years and live a miserable life with my teacher. But if I succeed, I will make a contribution to you. This is what I said to Your Majesty, and you must have a great wise and brave person to implement it. Although your IQ is insufficient, your courage is commendable. What I feel most distressed about is you. After thinking about it, I still recommend you to Your Majesty."

Ouyang Zhi understood this time, and he bowed and said, "My teacher has a destiny, and the students go through fire and water, and they will never refuse."

"Okay." Fang Jifan was happy. To be honest, such a person, even if he had no IQ at all, was like a mentally retarded person, and Fang Jifan liked him.
