Chapter Eighty-Three: Re-opening the Green Seedlings Money
Zhao Ran lived in the Jade Emperor Pavilion for a few days, fished with Dongfang Li a few times, and finally waited until the Great Elder Dongfang Ming had leisure, so he got a meeting.
Dongfang Ming kindly said a few words to Zhao Ran, and asked Jiang Tenghe about his current situation, and Zhao Ran answered as concisely as possible.
Zhao Ran didn't have the idea of needing to ask Ken Dongfang Ming to do something, in front of this Heavenly Master of the Void Refining Realm, he felt an indescribable coercion, which made him a little restless.
Dongfang Ming also saw Zhao Ran's discomfort, and said apologetically: "I have recently practiced a Dao method, this is because the Dao method has not yet been harmonized, so don't be surprised." ”
How dare Zhao Ran be an apology for a Heavenly Master, he hurriedly got up and said, "Master Dongfang, don't say that, it's because the disciple doesn't practice enough. After a few years, when the disciple concludes the golden pill, when he comes to visit the master again, I am afraid it will be better. However, when I think that at that time, the Dao of Shi Bo was even higher, and these concerns would not exist. ”
In a few words, Zhao Ran found a reason for himself to come back next time, or make an appointment.
Dongfang Li was also polite, talked a few words, and saw that Zhao Ran really didn't ask for anything, so he served tea and sent it off.
Coming out of the Jade Emperor Palace, Zhao Ran suddenly sweated profusely, and he was really relieved.
Dongfang Li sent Zhao Ran out of Qingyun Peak, shook his hand and handed over a bamboo basket, which was neatly stacked with Fengxiang three tea cakes.
Zhao Ran took it and smiled: "Thank you Senior Brother Li, this kind of cake in your Jade Emperor Pavilion is really delicious, my third senior brother is the best bite, with this basket of cakes, the Jade Emperor Pavilion and his party will be worthwhile." ”
Dongfang Li smiled: "It turns out that I can't be a basket of Fengxiang three tea cakes after working hard these days, it's really frustrating, haha." ”
Hearing Zhao Ran say that he wanted to go to Xuanyuan Temple, which was in the same mountain, Dongfang Li asked, "Do you have something to do with Xuanyuan Temple?"
Zhao Ran said: "It's nothing, since I've come here, I just want to go to Prison Li to pay a visit." ”
Dongfang Li said: "Then you are going to be disappointed, Li Yunhe is not in Xuanyuan Temple, he has gone to the capital." Xingwang was killed, and Jian Lonely Guan recruited the provincial prisons of the ten jungles to enter Beijing to worship for King Xing. ”
Seeing that Zhao Ran didn't quite understand, he explained: "King Xing is the biological father of the Son of Heaven. ”
Zhao Ran understood now. When today's son is not the son of the first emperor Wuzong, but the nephew of the first emperor, this matter is known to the world. It's just that Zhao Ran hadn't paid attention to it before, which vassal king his biological father was, and at this moment, after listening to Dongfang Li's introduction, he knew that it was King Xing. When the Son of Heaven dies and sacrifices with great gifts, it is normal.
Since Supervisor Li was not there, Zhao Ran didn't bother to go to Xuanyuan Temple. Coming down from Qingcheng Mountain, the donkey Jun galloped quickly, looking at the direction of Jun Mountain.
Zhao Ran tasted the harvest of this trip to Qingcheng Mountain, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. There are three rewards for Dongfang Li, one is to join the Sanqing Pavilion, the second is to find opportunities to help him improve the Taoist position of the Ten Directions Jungle in the future, and the third is to solve the trouble for himself as much as possible. But then again, he became a subordinate of Dongfang Li, and the second and third articles were not what Dongfang Li should have done as a matter of course as a superior? Doesn't it have anything to do with remuneration? As for the first one, how did he suddenly become a member of the Sanqing Pavilion?
Zhao Ran, who came to his senses, couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was still young......
After arriving at Junshan, Zhao Ran saw that the autumn harvest of late rice was going on in an orderly manner, so he no longer bothered, and urged the old donkey to rush back to Wuji Courtyard.
As the abbot of Wuji Academy, although most of the daily affairs are handed over to Liu Zhiguang, he must go back at least every month to have a look, otherwise after a long time, a lot of information is not well-informed, the situation is not familiar, and it is easy to lose proportion when making decisions.
Back in the abbot's courtyard, Liu Zhiguang, who learned the news, came in with a large stack of official documents. Zhao Ran didn't say a word, took it over and looked at it one by one, and looked at Liu Zhiguang's approval opinions, as long as there was nothing too out of line, he didn't speak, and all nodded in agreement.
After reading the official document, he asked Liu Zhiguang: "Is there any other major event?"
Liu Zhiguang replied: "I have been preparing for the abbot's explanation during this time, and I want to touch with the abbot to see if there is anything wrong." ”
Before Zhao Ran was promoted to abbot, he talked with Liu Zhiguang about the three major plans of Guyang County, one is the promotion of charity funds in the county, the second is the preparation of the Huimin Ji Medical Hall, and the third is the reorganization and repair of the county's official roads and canals.
These three major policies are the main matters for Zhao Ran to obtain the merits of the people of the county, so to speak, how long will it take for him to complete the cultivation of the Huangguan Realm and make the transition to the conclusion of the Golden Pill, mainly counting on these three major policies.
I heard Liu Zhiguang say: "Let's talk about the charity fund system first. I have already talked to Steward Li and am going to do it in two steps. The first step was carried out in the Junshan Special Evangelization Area, which accounts for 30% of the county's arable land and 40% of the population, because it is adjacent to Junshan, and has a higher understanding and acceptance of the charity fund system. This area is planned to be implemented for half a year, and within half a year, we will see if there are any difficulties and loopholes, and if there are, adjust them at any time. ”
Zhao Ran calculated, half a year, it was more pertinent, so he nodded.
Liu Zhiguang continued: "The second step, if it is successfully implemented in the Junshan Special Evangelism Area, will be promoted and implemented in the whole county after March next year. In general, the charity fund system has been implemented in Guyang County, although it has been interrupted in recent years, but the people of the county, the gentry, and the wealthy businessmen are more aware of it, and the resistance to recovery will not be too great. ”
Zhao Ran nodded, and shook his head again: "You still have to think about the difficulties enough, make adequate preparations, and don't be careless." ”
Liu Zhiguang said: "The abbot said yes. Therefore, after discussing it with Steward Li, I had a small idea, and I don't know if the abbot thinks it is okay. ”
"Say it. ”
"The green seedling money system implemented by the abbot in the Junshan area is based on the interest of more than 20,000 acres of land contracted in the Junshan area, which is actually equivalent to the abbot subsidizing the farmers with his own silver. Isn't it?"
Zhao Ran nodded: "Indeed." ”
At present, there are two sets of seedling money systems in Guyang County, one is the seedling money system operated by the government, and the annual interest rate approved by the imperial court is four percent. Although the annual interest rate was low, the peasants could not borrow it, and the money was borrowed by the gentry and wealthy merchants at high interest rates. After the gentry and wealthy merchants borrowed the green seedling money, they in turn relented it to the peasant households at an interest rate of 30% or more, and the difference between the price was divided equally with the county government and the provincial court. This is the biggest problem with the current Seedlings Money.
The other set is Zhao Ran's "Charity Fund", called "Charity Fund", but in fact it is still Seedlings Money. Zhao Ran also borrowed a sum of high-interest seedling money from the county government, but only lent it to farmers at an annual interest rate of 8 percent.
Because of Zhao Ran's intervention, the entire Guyang County's green seedling money system was restored to its true character, and farmers had a channel to borrow "cheap money", where would they borrow "expensive money" again?
The gentry and wealthy businessmen in Guyang County couldn't borrow "expensive money", so naturally they wouldn't "borrow" Qingmiao money from the county government, and the county government's Qingmiao money was left, and Zhao Ran could "borrow" more Qingmiao money.
Therefore, Zhao Ran is equivalent to snatching food from the mouths of the gentry and wealthy businessmen in the county, which will inevitably provoke the counterattack of these people. It's a pity that before Zhang Yunzhao planned to implement it in the whole government, the vigorous reform of Qingmiaoqian came to an abrupt end with his own assassination.
Afterwards, Zhao Ran himself secretly summed up, feeling that his steps were too fast and too big, and he said that he crossed the river by feeling the stones, but the result was that the stones were not touched, and he stepped directly into the pit.
Later, Zhao Ran only implemented it in the Junshan area, which was his territory, the farmers were all his tenants, and the land was contracted under his name, and there were no gentry and wealthy businessmen in it, so the implementation was very smooth. Now if you want to promote it in the whole county, you naturally can't act like you did back then.
Therefore, Liu Zhiguang said that he discussed with the charity fund Manager Li, but in fact, many of Manager Li's insights came from Zhao Ran's reflection.
I heard Liu Zhiguang say: "I thought it was okay in Junshan, but if it was promoted in the whole county, it would be very inappropriate for the abbot to make up the money and interest from his own pocket." First, I am afraid that people with ulterior motives will accuse the abbot of inviting people to buy people's hearts, and second, how can the abbot afford to subsidize the interest of several thousand taels a year? Even if the abbot can afford it, how can it be promoted to other places in the future? How many people in other places think about the people and donate generously like the abbot?"
Zhao Ran nodded and said, "Then what is the method you discussed?"
