Chapter 395: Another three years of sewing and mending

The days are slowly passing, and February is now only two days away. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

All the environments that can be seen around Jiangzhou City are slowly showing that the breath of spring is coming: dry and active.

In addition to Gao Fangping, many people in the city have changed their heavy cotton jackets and put on their usual clothes. It's not that they're not afraid of the cold, it should be reluctant to wear them.

In the past few days, Gao Fangping has been taking Liang Hongying to visit and observe, the people of Jiangzhou are too different from Tokyo, many people's expressions seem blank, their attitudes seem restrained, and the entire street market is quiet, and there are not too many people talking.

The so-called new three years and old three years, and another three years for sewing and mending.

When he arrived in Jiangzhou, Gao Fangping observed that the patches on the padded jackets of the common people were really varied. At the moment, the temperature is still cold, and most of them have already changed their padded jackets, some say that it is because they want to wear them for three more years, because natural phenomena make them very worried about the cold in the coming year.

They thought that once the only padded jacket was torn, they might not be able to afford it anymore, and they would not be able to face the winter that followed.

Gao Fangping has never experienced such an act, so this is Liang Hongying's judgment, she said that there are many poor people in the people who do not have many clothes at home, and they are reluctant to wear good clothes, and they will not wear them until the New Year. In some people's homes, the whole family only has one or two sets of barely decent clothes, and basically whoever goes out wears them, and usually puts them away.

I don't know if I don't come, but I'm scared when I come. A rich town like Jiangnan, the largest grain tax area in the dynasty, is such a scene.

The Cai Party officials' hands covered the sky, and they were troubled by the big ten dollars before, which almost sucked up all their bone marrow. Now, they are facing the expiration of their tax exemption policy.

At that time, Zhao Ji only agreed to exempt the tax for one year, which was the first year of Cai Jing's restoration of the Daguan last year. And this year's tax will be reinstated, so this year is a big threshold in the southeast region, and if it is not done well, Fang La's Mingjiao power will expand more than ten times in a few months.

The terrible thing about religion is that in addition to gathering people, it provides believers with an invisible thought. In this case, once some of the congregants are armed, the real disaster lies.

It was the same root, and he was too anxious.

This is what the word says about this situation. Armed religious fanatics are not going to kill soldiers. Gao Fangping said a long time ago, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are witty, and the officers and soldiers are really the most difficult to die and the strongest group of hooligans with the strongest ability to resist risks. If you can't beat them, they will run, and they can run faster than thieves without training.

As a result, the miserable people in the occupied areas were persecuted by means three times more powerful than those of the imperial court soldiers and bandits. Officials and soldiers will not be sad, let alone the people rebel, even if the Jin soldiers go south, half of the country falls, the emperor Lao'er changes the capital and still enjoys it, and the officials change places to become officials. After the soldiers changed places, they still ate the imperial food.

And what about the common people?

The sentence "I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled world" is talking about this situation. In any form, in fact, the miserable person can only be worse, not better.

In his heart, Gao Fangping really didn't believe that Fang Latian Hu and these people would be more gentle than Wang Huang and Zhu Mian when exploited.

When thinking about it all the way, Gao Fangping felt that his thinking was slowly beginning to become clear-weapons were the key.

Chen Liu's first battle, Yuncheng's first battle, and Gaotang's first battle. In these three battles with bandits, one thing in common is that the equipment of those grassroots anti-thieves is very worrying, there are weapons, but there are not many of them, and most of them are stick farm tools.

Thinking of this, Gao Fangping felt that he had really taken it for granted before. Lao Chang of Mengzhou and Lao Pei of the big county, there should be some reason why they are so keen on cracking down on black blacksmiths.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Gao Fangping now approves of their policy of cracking down on black blacksmiths. The so-called overkill, if the blow is too strict, and when the control is too strict, the harm is also great, and it will lead to the lack of creative vitality of the people. In fact, the technology and craftsmanship of the leading era of the Great Song Dynasty were gradually formed by relying on such extensive indulgence. This is somewhat similar to Liu Bang's idea of "rule by inaction".

Of course, Lao Liu took the initiative to advocate, while the Great Song Dynasty was passively formed because the government was lazy and cowardly.

Gao Fangping's proposition is not to indulge, nor to be too controlled, and there needs to be a balance between this, that is, to establish a mechanism to encourage the development of metallurgy, but to be monitored by the government.

It's a pity that Gao Fangping can't control these things on the side of national law now. Once there is no relevant national law to rely on, then Gao Fangping can mess around under his own rule, but he can't influence others to mess around.

For example, Gao Fangping does not have the right to govern in Jiangzhou, but if there is a national law to rely on, Gao Fangping can force Cai Qian to enforce it. However, now there is no law to follow, and Gao Fangping can't go to the government, so what to do depends on his Xiao Cai's happiness.

"The whole Jiangnan form is extremely severe, Lao Tzu always has a bad premonition, and even sleeps with a heartbeat." While thinking about this, Gao Fangping muttered to himself: "As a control freak, if you don't control these in your hands, the people in Jiangzhou are so strange, and you don't control the source of weapons, I always feel that something is wrong here." ”

Yan Qing said: "What do you want to do so much, when are you going to see Brother Song Jiang?" ”

Gao Fangping said: "If you don't understand these, don't be blind*** What can you do now if you go to see it, do I still order him to be released?" What should I do if Cai Qian doesn't let me see me? If you don't let Song Jiang go, just to see each other and I don't know what to say, do you think it's cost-effective to tear up Cai Qian for this reason? ”

"You have to count everything, can you also count the moral and emotional problems of being a human being like this?" Yan Qing said unconvinced.

Gao Fangping said with a smile: "The morality in your mouth is a false proposition. Your buddy Song Jiang stabbed a woman, and as soon as he came to Jiangzhou, his other buddy Dai Zong released the murderer from prison, and then drank high in the restaurant and went crazy, so he was arrested and locked up again, which is called morality. Yan Qing, you bad boy, be careful for me, if you think that the guy who stabs someone if he doesn't agree with him should be drunk and crazy in the restaurant to call morality, then you will be caught and locked up by me sooner or later. ”

Lin Chong said embarrassedly: "Adult, you think too much, Yan Xiaoyi, he didn't mean that." ”

Liang Hongying said: "All of you think too much, Xianggong is not what you think, he must have a reason to do things, he has his judgment." ”

Liang Hongying's casual words reminded everyone, so everyone was very speechless and reacted, with the treacherous oil extraction style of the Great Demon King, he would use every event that could be used very obscenely. It seems that the fat man's route was arranged by the Great Demon King early in the morning.

Thinking about it like this, everyone is relieved, including Yan Xiaoyi. He felt that although the Great Demon King was obscene, he would not really pit Brother Song Jiang to death. If Brother Song was really killed by him, it probably meant that Song Jiang had an unknown side and a reason to die.

Duan Jinzhu was that horse thief, in order to save him in Gaotang, the big demon king made concessions to Pei Yancheng in terms of interests, this is a fact, and the big guys see it in their eyes.

"Han Shizhong." Gao Fangping said suddenly.

"The end will be." Xiao Han came out of the column and knelt on the ground.

Lin Chong's apprentice has the highest chance of being ordered recently, so he is very proud to caress his short beard and nod frequently.

Gao Fangping said: "These days, I have been paying attention to the prison records in Jiangzhou, and the result is: Jiangzhou has been arrested very few black blacksmiths, which is obviously different from Tokyo, Mengzhou, and the largest county at that time. In other words, this is extremely abnormal. You are young, your official position is small, and you are not noticeable. I took a few people to change into civilian clothes and scattered in the market to inquire about the news, I want to know how many black blacksmiths there are in Jiangzhou City, and how many controlled weapons have been created. Precise data is not required, but a reasonable estimate is generally required. ”

"Order." Han Shizhong is not the first time to take over this kind of underground work, and he has long been familiar with the road, so he immediately went to select an assistant from the Hutou Battalion.

"What am I waiting for, please be fair?" The rest of the people hugged their fists.

"Nothing. Lin Chong and Liang Hongying followed me to protect me, and the rest went to entertainment by myself, just remember not to get into trouble. Yan Xiaoyi's task is to occupy the Qinglou in Jiangzhou, and to get drunk and dream of death at the same time, I think that kind of place can sometimes summarize a lot of news, and report me if there is something unusual. Gao Fangping waved his hand to disperse these guys.

It may not be useful to make these arrangements, and there may not be progress, but they can only be done step by step in this way, which is basically a mechanism and procedure for Gao Fangping to deal with problems.

The breakthrough point in the Jiangzhou problem is obviously in Hukou County, and the reason why he did not go in time is that Gao Fangping knows that he will not get anything if he goes now. Wong was apparently killed because he had discovered something big, colloquially known as "you know too much." So if some evil forces don't have bad brains, Huang Wenbing should keep a low profile and erase the traces after he is killed.

There is a gap of a few months from the initiation to Gao Fangping's arrival in Jiangzhou, and if you meet a smart person, you can basically cover up all the things that should be covered. Coupled with Cai Qian's ambiguous attitude, Gao Fangping is almost certain that it will be difficult to make a breakthrough for the time being.

This kind of thing can't be rushed, first of all, we have to stabilize the heel of Jiangzhou. Gaining a certain prestige is the capital to do things later.

The common people have been stabilized to the point of insensitivity, without their support, there would be no foundation for the people's war, and the newcomer Gao Fangping may not be able to fight these sharks.

If you want to hunt these powerful sharks, anyone who does it will have quite terrifying sequelae and backlash, and the only thing that can suppress this sequelae is public opinion. Yes, not power but public opinion. For example, when I was in Beijing at that time, there was the support of the people of Donghuamen who wrote tens of thousands of words, so as long as they did not bring troops into the imperial city, they could be suppressed no matter what kind of trouble they caused......
