In late spring and March, the drizzle was like smoke, and the rain fell all day. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info couldn't eat all the fish they caught, so they made fish and asked a few young officials to take them back. These tailfish look inconspicuous, and it will cost them a few dollars to buy them.

Everyone returned happily and arrived near the Guozijian in the state bridge and said goodbye.

Xu Ping took Liu Xiaoyi and a few villagers to walk slowly on the avenue, thinking about their thoughts in the misty spring rain. Today's gathering of Jin Mingchi is to contact the lower-level pavilion ministers to get in touch with each other, and the other is to exchange opinions with Fan Zhongyan.

Politics is always about parties, whether they are close or loose. The trend of the times, Lu Yijian's control of the government for many years has become a target, and the middle-level officials cannot form a joint force to confront it for various reasons, so they give the opportunity to the pavilion personnel who have just entered the official career and have a relatively high political status. Fan Zhongyan met by fate and became the co-owner of these people.

Fan Zhongyan does not belong to the private party, and young officials gather around him because they share the same political views, and some are attracted by his personal character. Fan Zhongyan himself was pushed to the position of co-leader.

And because of the relationship between the three departments and the regulations editing office, Xu Ping also gathered a group of young officials around him, and there are still many overlaps between the two people. The reality is that they have to make some things clear.

Xu Ping's political views are unclear, and his attitude seems a little ambiguous, which has caused dissatisfaction among some people around him. But Xu Ping doesn't plan to change, to put it bluntly, whether Lu Yijian falls or not, it has no impact on his political future, why should he jump out and be that villain? Especially when Fan Zhongyan was defeated from the history of his previous life.

What Xu Ping has to do now is to straighten out the social order related to the economy with the help of the three divisions. As long as this is achieved, many problems in the government will not be a problem now.

Financial management, but it is a sensitive issue, Xu Ping can feel it from today's conversation with Fan Zhongyan.

In the final analysis, it is still what Fan Zhongyan said, there are many treasures in the world, but those who are in the government are not in the people, and if the imperial court's financial revenue increases, it will definitely damage the people's livelihood. If this problem is not solved, the deep ideological conflict with Fan Zhongyan will always exist. On the issue of promoting the big farm, Fan Zhongyan is willing to take a step back, because Xu Ping's financial achievements over the years, whether it is the sugar business in Yongzhou, or the new field business and shop opened by the three divisions in the capital, have not harmed the people's livelihood, but also benefited the people's livelihood.

Once something goes wrong at this point, the basis for cooperation between the two sides does not exist.

During the day, by the Jinming Pond, Xu Ping wanted to answer Fan Zhongyan that labor creates value, and all wealth is based on human labor. Since labor can create value and wealth, then the increase in effective labor force and the increase in labor productivity can increase wealth.

This was common sense in Xu Ping's previous life, but not necessarily in this era.

The recognition that wealth can be created is essential for social development, and that subsequent economic development and economic policies are based on this foundation. Only by recognizing this can we move the economic problem away from focusing on the distribution of wealth and towards the expansion of production and the development of productive forces.

Ancient Chinese economists, financial managers, focused on the redistribution of wealth. This is true of the emphasis on agriculture and the suppression of commerce, the suppression of mergers, the same is true of the monopoly of salt and iron, and even more so of the advocacy of light taxation. From Guan Zhong Sang Hongyang to Liu Yan, a financial management minister in the Tang Dynasty, this idea has been inherited unchanged.

They can't answer where the wealth comes from, and the policy loses continuity.

The ideological roots of the torture of "competing with the people" that every fiscal reform has faced are here. It is impossible to answer where the official increase in wealth comes from, and it cannot be clearly stated that it was not stolen from the mouths of the small people, and the reforms will be wiped out.

Labor creates value, this is not just a sentence, but the foundation of the economic system, and a whole set of theories must be developed on the basis of this sentence in order to show the power of this sentence. Clearly explaining the production and multiplication of wealth and making it a social consensus points the way to economic development. Without Xu Ping having to go through any pains to come up with any money-making ideas, other officials could come up with endless ways. They're all good people, but they haven't figured out where they are.

The current Xu Ping does not have the ability to complete this set of theories, no matter what he learned in his previous life, or the study of the classics in this life, Xu Ping's knowledge is not systematic. It's okay to occasionally come up with two sentences that make people unclear, but systematically expounding an academic problem but not being able to grasp it is Xu Ping's helplessness, and sometimes he feels powerless.

Back in front of the small courtyard of his house in the city, Xu Ping said to Liu Xiaoyi: "I'm here today, you go back and tell your family, don't wait for me." ”

Liu Xiaoyi promised and went with a few villagers. He also has to take care of the restaurant outside the city, and he can't always be by Xu Ping's side, today it was because of Zhang Luo, a capable person, that he called him over.

The little guy came out and led the horse, and Xu Ping entered the yard.

After entering the living room and wiping the wet moisture on his face, Xu Ping let out a sigh and sat down on the chair. It's quite intentional to go out in rainy weather, but it's really not very comfortable.

It wasn't until he took a hot shower and changed his clothes that the coldness of his body was swept away, and Xu Ping was really relieved. Jean took a pot of charcoal fire and put it in front of him, Xu Ping roasted the fire, his whole body was warm, and he unconsciously leaned back on the chair and fell asleep.

I don't know when, the sound of footsteps outside the door woke Xu Ping up, and he sat up straight, only to see Li Ji outside at the door.

After seeing the ceremony, Xu Ping asked the little maid to move the chair and let Li Ji sit down opposite him.

After roasting the fire for a while, Xu Ping asked Li Jing: "How do you feel about today's palace test?" ”

Li Jing replied respectfully: "The students themselves feel that although the article is not outstanding, it is not out of line. ”

"Well, just make sure there are no miscellaneous criminals."

"I have taken to heart what my husband has commanded repeatedly. After I finished writing, I checked again and again, and there were no rhymes and typos, and there should be no miscellaneous criminals. ”

Miscellaneous offenders are the first time to participate in the imperial examination of the literati who are prone to make mistakes, rhyme, typo, or write taboo words. Before the marking, these were all picked out in advance, and they were directly dethroned, and there was no chance to participate in the evaluation at all. Li Di's kind of luck, even if he made miscellaneous mistakes, he was the only one in many years.

At this time, it was nearly evening, and the light rain that had been like a thick fog began to be a little heavier, and there was gradually a murmuring sound. Spring is the time when it is warm and cold, and this kind of weather will inevitably have a cold air at this time.

It is precisely because of the cold that the fire on a rainy night is particularly comfortable.

Xu Ping sat on the chair, only feeling warm and bored, and said to Li Jing: "There is nothing to do on the rainy night left and right, you take a pen and paper to write out the article of the palace examination and I will take a look, and I have a bottom in my heart." (To be continued.) )
