727 Carry on the great cause of river repair
At the beginning of April, Gao Cuifeng had not returned with the dowry to marry Wang San, and Queen Pang's secret envoy arrived. Li Zhonggui secretly slipped from Yingtianfu to Yangzi Town, and revealed a court secret to Hong Tao in person: Wang Anshi wrote to the emperor that he should let King Liang serve as the envoy of the system of repairing the river along the river.
The reason is very strong, since the spring flood, the Yangtze River and its tributaries have been flooded in many places, causing great economic losses to the local area.
Then why did you let King Liang go? Wang Anshi's reasons are more sufficient. First, the Huaishui embankment is obvious to all, and the water superintendent sent someone to inspect it and couldn't help but sigh in the recital, if the embankment can be built like this, the Great Song Dynasty can protect it from floods for a hundred years.
Second, King Liang wrote a letter to the imperial court last year about the Yangtze River embankment and water conditions, citing several more dangerous places, and two of them were unfortunately stated.
The report is clear-worded, data-rich, and forward-looking. After reading it, the officials who were also the water supervisors of the capital replied that King Liang knew the Yangtze River well, and the whole Song Dynasty was unsurpassed.
Since King Liang repaired the river embankment so professionally and understood the Yangtze River so thoroughly, why not make the best use of it and let him play more.
More than half of the locks on the canal have been replaced, and the dredging effect is very obvious. The remaining locks can be replaced slowly, and compared with the flooding of the Yangtze River, several locks are obviously much lighter.
"Instead of treating it every year and failing to treat it every year, it is better to hand it over to King Liang to dispose of it and ensure that it is safe to repair one place!" This was Wang Anshi's point of view, and it was also endorsed by the Manchu civil and military forces.
Neither the reformers nor the conservatives are much divided on the issue of repairing the river, and no one wants to see floods happen every year. As long as the credit can be counted on your side and the responsibility is borne by the other party, you should support it.
snatch the credit from King Liang first, and easily buckle the black cauldron, this idea will be hopeless for everyone. This man is a madman, and he can do anything in a hurry.
Retreat and secondly, the credit is neither a reform nor a conservative, and the responsibility must be borne by King Liang himself. No, there is also a Wang Anshi, who made him the recommender.
So it was said that there was a strange phenomenon in the court, and the suggestions put forward by Wang Anshi were strongly supported by the reformers, which was too rare.
These are just superficial appearances, since Wang Anshi dares to propose new official appointments and dismissals, he must have passed the wind with the emperor in private, but the rhetoric is not so conclusive.
In the past two years, due to the large amount of investment in Youzhou Road, the state treasury has been empty, and the funds that should have been used to repair the river embankment and control the flood have also been misappropriated, and it will not be completely made up for a while. If there is really a large-scale flood, once it is investigated, the emperor and Wang Anshi will have to bear the black cauldron.
Let King Liang serve as the envoy of the system of repairing rivers along the river, not only can show the determination of the court to control the flood to appease the people, but also use the financial resources of King Liang to alleviate the big hole of special funds. As long as it can be delayed for half a year, no one will be able to see it after the summer tax and autumn tax are put into storage.
Before King Liang was appointed as the envoy of the system of repairing the river along the river, it was not discussed in the court, and Queen Pang got the news. She didn't know that Wang Anshi had privately written a letter to King Liang to ask for peace, and she didn't know King Liang's plans, thinking that someone in the court was calculating her good brother-in-law, so she didn't dare to delay for a day, and immediately wrote to Ying Tianfu's Li Zhonggui.
This queen is greedy for money and likes power, but she is still a good person, at least trustworthy. As long as King Liang guarantees the interests of her family according to the original agreement, she will immediately resolve the things that are unfavorable to her brother-in-law in the court, and whether she can resolve it is another matter.
In the past two years, the Chuzhou fertilizer factory has created profits for her family, and the Dabao cosmetics chain store has also opened in several major cities, and the profit momentum is faster than that of the fertilizer factory.
A few years ago, my brother-in-law wrote to mention a new fortune project, planning to use the Huangzhuang in Dengzhou to prepare for the establishment of the White Stack Flower Cooperative, organize local farmers who have no land or have little land to collectively plant White Stack Flower in a large area, and build a factory and a wharf nearby.
It will not take two or three years to let the imitation cotton cloth enter the market and fight with the traditional linen cloth and satin, and the cloth market is second only to the salt and iron business, and the profits are extremely lucrative.
Imitation cotton is what the queen of color has personally experienced, it feels really good, although it is not as gorgeous as satin, but it is warmer to wear as a small coat, especially in winter.
Those sets of obscene clothes and pants sent to the palace by Li Zhonggui are said to have been designed by her brother-in-law himself, and sometimes the queen blushes a little when she thinks about it, and she is a little jealous. I am jealous that my sister-in-law has a good husband, not only can she fight and earn money, but she also understands the fun of boudoir so well.
With so many common interests, what Queen Pang needs to do is to try her best to keep her brother-in-law's current official position stable, and she can't work for a few years because of the transfer of her position that affects her earning money.
It's not that the emperor doesn't know anything about these things, and pretending not to know is an attitude in itself. Who has a grudge against money, especially when you are not very rich.
"Please return to the honor, they are all envoys of the river repair system, as long as they are not involved in court battles, this king will have leisure time to tinker with some small business, it doesn't matter. These pearls and corals are all from Goryeo, and there is still a gap between them and the tribute, so I hope that the nobles will not shirk. ”
This is the second time Hong Tao has seen Li Zhonggui, this eunuch must have a close relationship with Queen Pang's family, and he is her clansman, otherwise he would not have handed over such a confidential matter to him for specific handling. If you want to say that the ancients worked hard enough for the interests of the family, they were stunned to let out the little JJ.
No matter how much others look down on people like eunuchs, Hong Tao himself does not discriminate against them much, especially in this calendar, the nobles cannot be despised and must be willing to give up small favors if they can have a good relationship.
Sometimes the bad things are bad for the little people, they don't have to deliberately stumble, they just need to say more or less words at the critical moment, and they can make Queen Pang their enemy.
"The master of the horse can take the opportunity to ask the court for governance, county governance and state governance are common practices, and with the help of the mother, you will not get nothing." Li Zhonggui smiled at the soft leather bag after a little excuse, and leaned in front of Hong Tao to remind him in a whisper before saying goodbye.
This is called the current newspaper, a few pearls, a coral, a little folding fan lacquer box, in Hong Tao's eyes bullshit is worthless, the warehouse is almost unable to put down, but when the gift is given to the right person, it is a lot of income.
How much money is still a small section, what is the most lacking in people like Gui in the calendar? Respect, respect from others, this can be seen from the Wasps. They don't need a lot of money, you just treat them as ordinary people and respect them, and they will be happy to serve you, even their lives.
However, Hong Tao can only ignore this intention of the noble, the meaning of county governance and state governance is that the system envoy usually has to concurrently serve as the local governor of a state and county, such as the two Huai Xiuhe system envoy Zhiyangzhou.
On the other hand, it is also true that the imperial court sometimes has local officials with higher qualifications and higher positions acting as envoys, so that it is easier to work and not waste time and local officials to deal with relations from scratch.
But this kind of convenience becomes a trouble when you put it on yourself, and it is easy to be impeached by the imperial historian to govern a state and county, especially if you don't follow the usual path. So don't ask for it, sometimes rights are a good thing, sometimes it's a burden.
Well, Yangzi Town is very good. Through the unremitting efforts of the past two years, he has a good mass base in Yangzi Town, is deeply loved by the local people, and has no conflict with the gentry and landlords.
After the construction of Yangtze University, Yangzi Town, Guazhou Town and even Yangzhou City will benefit. The time and place are favorable, and he has two of them at once, so what more can he ask for.
And his own house is in Yangzi Town, no matter how rich he is, he can't say that he will throw it away, and no one is willing to sell it, and the prayer tower that the eldest princess repaired for the Queen Mother has not yet been built, who wants to spend money to buy a yard, and then have to help others build the tower? Or do you dare to demolish it!
The geographical location here is also suitable, and it can be attacked and defended. Guarding the canal and the Yangtze River, you can go north and south at any time, and you can go in and out of the east at any time, which is most suitable for people like you who get on the boat and have fun.
As for whether the court allows Hong Tao to be fine, he doesn't think about it, with Wang Anshi and Queen Pang working hard, and it is not an important position, there should be no accidents, and now what needs to be worried about is the marriage of Wang San and Gao Cuifeng.
