Chapter 305: The Foundation of the Great Song Dynasty (10 for the Sect Leader's Silver Alliance)
"Weng Weng, are you okay today?"
Zhao Zhongjun entered the room and saw that Zhao Yunrang was reading a book, so he saluted.
Zhao Yunrang looked up and saw that he was wearing civilian clothes, so he said, "It's all right, are you going out?" ”
"Yes, my grandson wants to go to Taixue to have a look."
Zhao Yunrang nodded and said, "There are some homeless people in the city, be careful." ”
After Zhao Zhongjun left, the old servant said: "Ah Lang, Xiao Langjun looks depressed!" ”
Zhao Yunrang sneered: "Those brutes ......"
Zhao Yunrang came back to life, and Zhao Zhen in the palace reacted very interestingly, and even sent a lot of delicacies, which made the children and grandchildren in the county king's mansion feel that something was wrong.
If you are really concerned, then the one from the palace should be the imperial doctor, preferably a permanent doctor.
Deliver a gourmet ......
Is this a ridicule of Zhao Yunrang's inability to eat?
The atmosphere in the house is not quite right recently, and those children and grandchildren often come and stop talking.
Is this ...... Is there no drama in our house?
No one dared to ask this, for fear of being beaten and scolded by Zhao Yunrang.
But Zhao Zongshi's side gradually became less and less crowded, and some people were snubbed in front of the door.
What does this mean, Zhao Zhongjun is very clear.
He walked through the streets, watching the pedestrians weaving, and the mist coming out one after another, which was very interesting.
He gradually walked to the side street, and saw that there were many ragged people inside, and they were all with their families, so he walked along the side.
Most of these people were hungry, but they had smiles on their faces.
He didn't walk until he walked outside the gate of Taixue before he saw the steaming scene.
"Get out of the way!"
There are two tables at the entrance of Taixue, on which are stacked tall steamers.
There was a shout from inside, and a stack of steaming steamers was carried out.
Two students went over to help unload the steamer, and the people began to rush forward.
"Don't squeeze it, it's all there, today's steamed buns are enough!"
A familiar voice came, and Zhao Zhongyan followed the sound to look, but it was Wang Yan.
At this moment, Wang Yan was standing on the side, with a folding fan inserted in his waist, shouting hoarsely.
"Okay, enough is enough."
At the front of the line was an old man, holding a child, smiling and waiting.
The steamer was unveiled, and suddenly a smell came.
"It's a meat bun! It's a meat steamed bun! ”
There were children in the crowd shouting.
"Yes, it's meat steamed buns."
Shen An came out, and he was also carrying a three-layer steamer.
Zhao Zhongjun went over to help, and the two put the steamer on the table, and then the students began to shout: "Come one by one, there is hot tea on the side, there is medicine in the tea, and drinking it can prevent the disease." ”
On the table next to it was a large jar, on which the steaming was steaming, and the smell of medicinal herbs was strong.
When the steamed buns arrived, the people squatted along the wall, and those who had children took care of their children first.
"It smells so good!"
Take a bite of the meat steamed bun, the noodles are soft, and there is juice inside, the fragrance is so strong that people can't stop eating it.
"Delicious!"
A woman ate a few bites, and then went to the side to make tea and drink it with a bamboo tube, and then she hiccuped.
"This Taixue steamed bun is really delicious!"
"Yes, Taixue steamed buns are really delicious."
"Than ...... It's better than the steamed buns that I ate in Pan Lou that year. ”
"You've also been to Pan Lou?"
"That's not ...... There is a steamed bun seller outside Fanlou, which is delicious. ”
A big man clasped his hands in his sleeves, licked his lips, and sniffed: "So-and-so was also rich back then, but later...... I had no choice but to sell the land and later help people farm...... It's down. ”
"That's the fragility of homesteaders."
Shen An was speaking in a low voice: "They don't have much savings, once they encounter a natural and man-made disaster, breaking the family is just an ordinary ......"
Zhao Zhongjun nodded, with some sadness in his eyes: "Great Song ...... Last time I saw that family in Zhuangshang, not to mention natural disasters and man-made disasters, even if I had a few more children, I am afraid that I will not be able to support them. ”
Homesteaders are the foundation, but the Great Song Dynasty can't protect its own foundation.
"Those rebels ......"
Shen An hesitated for a moment, and finally expressed his opinion: "The tax is too heavy, they can't survive, so they will naturally find a way...... Most of the rebellions are to attract attention and then ...... Isn't it ridiculous to kill people and set fires to be recruited? ”
This era is really strange, Bianliang City is prosperous everywhere, but if you go to the slums and the countryside, you will know that the peasants of this era are still unchanged and are still struggling to survive.
The prosperity is full of brilliance, but there is often darkness underneath.
Later, the Seedlings Law had the aspect of the government's profit-making, but it also had the concerns of the people that life was difficult when the youth was not working.
Wang Anshi thought that the world would be safe and perfect, and he would live up to it. The low interest rate of the government-run seedling money can be regarded as helping to reduce the burden on the people, but the method and implementation have become problems.
In this era, as long as anything is hung up with the official sign, it almost means that it is up and down, and it also means that there is only one chicken feather left in the end.
Zhao Zhongjun nodded, and Shen An continued: "And what is the reason for the heavy tax? ”
"It's too expensive, three redundant."
"Pretty much the same, now the DPRK and China will not be able to make ends meet every year, so it must be reformed."
If you play deficit every year, you will go bankrupt if you continue to play, and you will have to raise taxes in the end.
"Open source and reduce expenditure."
Shen An felt that these four words really fulfilled the true meaning of national financial management.
"Throttling is to start with the three redundancies, and then reduce taxes so that the people can recuperate...... But the key is the rule of officials. ”
Zhao Zhongjun praised: "If the government is not clear, no matter how good the innovation is, it will become harmful to the people and disturb the people." ”
Shen An patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are still young, don't stay at home in a daze all day, go inside and see the vitality of those students." ”
The two entered Taixue and could meet students along the way.
The students were fiddling with their tents in the open space, and they discussed with each other what they didn't understand.
"The victims will stay here for a few days, and then go back to rebuild their homes when the DPRK and China get results."
"Not the Xiang Army?"
Zhao Zhongjun said with a smile: "Yes, now priority is given to local placement." ”
"Brother Anbei, you were so bold at that time, now that I think about it, if the Zaifu had a tougher attitude, I am afraid you would have ......"
Zhao Zhongjun felt that Shen An's courage was really big, including this Fuzhou campaign, and he also tried many times in forbidden areas, such as Zhujingguan.
Shen An said lightly: "If you want to do something this year, you can't do it without the guts, and you can't do it with the wrong method." If you don't have the guts, you will give up halfway, and the wrong method will be contrary to the original intention. ”
Zhao Zhongjun thought for a moment, and then asked, "Qingli New Deal?" ”
Isn't that the typical example of a daring person?
Shen An nodded, but refused to say the wrong example.
Wang Anshi will come once in the future, and then it will trigger a fierce party dispute, and finally a vigorous reform will become endless internal friction, exhausting the last trace of vitality of the Great Song Dynasty.
Taixue's kitchen was in front, and at this time, people were coming in and out from time to time, and the white mist was bubbling out.
"Su Yan, go and carry firewood!"
"Good!"
A student ran out, his face a little gray, mostly burning a fire.
He ran to the side and struggled to pick up a bundle of wood and fire.
"Su Yan, there's no water."
The student went to fetch water with a bucket again.
When he came back from panting and carrying water, someone shouted, "Su Yan, the wheat flour is gone, go get some." ”
"Good!"
The student went to carry the wheat flour again.
"Su Yan, come and ...... fire"
"Su Yan ......"
Shen An and Zhao Zhongjun stood on the side of the room stacked with miscellaneous items, watching this scene with cold eyes.
"Why do those students love to instruct the person while they stand by? The man didn't even know how to resist. ”
Zhao Zhongjun thought this was really incredible.
In his world, such a situation is deliberately bullying people, and he should resist.
Su Yan actually went along with it, and Zhao Zhongjun didn't like this character.
He even went with a smile.
Zhao Zhongjun really couldn't understand this state of mind.
"That's because he doesn't think that's the bottom line."
Shen An explained to him: "Su Yan's mother was struck by lightning and died, so her reputation is not very good. The family background is not very good, the key is that he is a little stupid, so the students ...... It is instinct to bully the weak, if he resists, then he will not be able to study with peace of mind, so compared to learning, as long as it does not touch his bottom line, he is willing to accept it. ”
Zhao Zhongjun's gaze followed Su Yan and turned, gradually realizing it.
"People have to have goals, and they can be patient for the sake of goals...... Can't be decadent. ”
There was more excitement between his eyebrows, and Shen An said with relief: "That's right, people say long and short in this life." What is your goal in this life, what are you willing to pay for it, think clearly, and you will naturally understand what trade-offs you should make. ”
He turned around and said, "Thank you Brother Anbei for your explanation." ”
Because of Zhao Zhen's change in attitude, Zhao Zongshi's family's life in the county king's mansion suddenly became a little lonely.
From popular to unpopular, this kind of psychological gap is not something that a teenager can bear, so Shen An deliberately enlightened him.
How did Zhao Zongshi become what he is now, and the suffering under that gap is indispensable.
Seeing that he was rejuvenated, Shen Anxin was overjoyed, so he shouted: "Someone! ”
"Waiting for the edict!"
A group of students on duty appeared.
Shen An pointed to the students who were standing and not working, and said: "The victims of the disaster must take a bath and change their clothes, which requires a lot of hot water, let them do it, and it can't be done...... When to do it and when to eat. ”
"Yes."
These students on duty are the backbone of Taixue, and they immediately rushed over.
"Wait for the edict to make you wait to boil water!"
"What? What kind of water to boil? ”
After a period of urging, these students couldn't help but turn pale with earth, and some people shouted: "So many people, how long do you have to boil water and bathe them?" Let's not talk about it, we have to eat tomorrow night. ”
"That's right! Don't talk about it, don't give it a meal...... To be edicted ......"
Shen An walked out from the side, and the students saluted one after another.
"I'll go now, right away."
A group of students who had just been indignant just now behaved like rabbits, and immediately ran to carry firewood and fetch water to boil water.
"Waiting for the edict! To be edicted ......"
A student ran up from outside and said, "The official family is here......
Shen An had already seen Zhao Zhen coming in plain clothes.
……
The fourth watch is delivered, good night everyone.
