Hearing Zhang Yuliang's bid so readily, Yang Fan couldn't help but look at him suspiciously. When did this old man become so generous? How much land does his family have? If you don't even have a hundred dollars, why would you spend money to beg yourself?
After pondering for a moment, Yang Fan said: "Shibo, why are you doing this? So many people with Qianqing cards have not come forward, why do you have to do this? Besides, there are many sons of the Jiangning Jin gentry serving as officials in the court. Why do you need to be so troublesome?"
Zhang Yuliang was entrusted by a group of Jin gentry in Jiangning. He immediately said: "There has to be someone who takes the lead in everything. This is just a suggestion."
Seeing that Zhang Yuliang was tight-lipped, Yang Fan frowned and said, "If it's not up to my nephew, this matter is actually very risky. How about my nephew writing an article explaining that he was killed by a whip?"
"How useful can it be to scratch an itch?" Zhang Yuliang said dissatisfiedly, knowing that he was dissatisfied with the lack of money. He paused slightly and said, "How about my nephew tell me the number."
"Ningbao is now different from what it used to be. There are so many people rushing to treat guests, and a good table now costs dozens of taels." Yang Fan said, then he slapped his head unceremoniously. He said: "Fifty taels, two hundred taels in return. My nephew is fighting for his future and doesn't want to do the World Expo once."
After more than ten years of examination, he was still a poor scholar. What kind of future did he have? Zhang Yuliang secretly despised him, but his face was full of smiles. The wrinkles on his face were as big as a walnut. For the Jin gentry, a few hundred taels of silver was nothing at all. He said cheerfully: "As for my nephew, I want both articles." After saying that, he took out a silver note worth one hundred taels.
The two articles "The Ming Dynasty was destroyed by a whipping method" and "On the Disadvantages of Sharing the Shareholding into the Farm" were quickly placed on the desk of Lang Yanji, the governor of Liangjiang. Lang Yanji read it carefully and picked up the "On I thought about the article "The Disadvantages of Shanxi's New Deal" for a long time, and then said: "It would be better to make a transition. These two articles will come first. 'On the Disadvantages of Shanxi's New Deal' will be postponed for two days."
"The Ming Dynasty was destroyed by a whip" and "On the Disadvantages of Sharing the Farm" were published in the Ning Newspaper, which immediately stirred up waves and aroused huge repercussions. The article "The Ming Dynasty fell due to a whipping method" explains the reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty from the perspective that the one whipping method offended the Jin gentry, causing the Ming Dynasty to lose the majority of the Jin gentry support. And "On the Disadvantages of Sharing the Farmer's Farm" points out pointedly that the "Sharing the Farmer's Farm" is actually a continuation of the whip law, which also infringes the interests of the Jin gentry to enrich the court's tax revenue.
The Jin gentry from Jiangnan, who had already expressed their opinions on the idea of ????letting people into their own families, were so excited when they saw these two articles. No one thought that Ning Bao would be so bold, not only daring to violate the taboos of the court, but also And he even dared to criticize the imperial court's new policy. Overjoyed, many Jin gentry asked the gunman to write articles in support, hoping to make the momentum as big as possible. Not only that, many Jin gentry took the initiative to sponsor Ning Bao to expand its printing scale and strive to have one issue every day.
The great debate between Beijing News and Ning News is getting more and more intense. All the officials and businessmen in Jiangning City are becoming more and more interested in Beijing News and Ning News. They are also paying more and more attention to Beijing News and Ning News. , officials arrive at the office every day. When the merchants and merchants of Jin Dynasty entered the teahouse, the first thing they did was to ask for newspapers.
The imperial court¡¯s decisions have always been unquestionable, and new policies such as the implementation of a new policy such as the allocation of land to land do not tolerate the slightest dissent. The Ning Newspaper dared to openly publish an article questioning the disadvantages of sharing the land. Naturally, everyone couldn't wait to see how the Beijing News would refute it. At the same time, everyone wanted to see how far Ning Bao could go and how this debate would end. Of course, what everyone wanted to know more was what the bottom line of the court's patience was.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Two days later, the Ningbo News published another article on the shortcomings of Shanxi¡¯s new policy. This was nothing short of adding fuel to the fire, and the whole Jiangnan area was in a commotion. Stations in various places became extremely busy, and fast horses and boats delivering Ningbao and Ningbao were constantly shuttled between Beijing and Ningbao at a speed of 600 miles. passed between.
???????? Historically, the scholars and the gentry did not pay for their food. If you do not perform corvee service, as long as you have achieved fame, you can be exempted from all taxes and corvee service. This is the privilege of the gentry, and it is also the dignity and dignity of the gentry. If the imperial court implements the idea that the officials and gentry should be paid as one and serve as errands, wouldn't this mean that the gentry and the common people are treated equally?
Nowadays, the scientific examination is becoming increasingly difficult, and it is even more difficult to become an official. If the tax exemption privilege of the gentry is abolished, what is the use of studying? Although the government and the gentry's unified payment of grain and integrated errand work are currently only tried in Shanxi, and the sharing of land by farmers was only tried in Guangdong before, but it has been popularized in Jiangnan in just two years. How can they not be worried?
But one day, the Beijing News that arrived in Jiangning also published an article about Shanxi's trial implementation of the New Deal, but it was more comprehensive than the one in the Ning Newspaper. The article listed in detail various measures for Shanxi's trial implementation of the New Deal. Working as one unit, abolishing tax collection, and allowing gentry to treat local officials?¡¯s supervisory power and explain them in detail one by one.
The Beijing News' comprehensive introduction to Shanxi's new policy is just a little comfort to a group of officials and gentry. To replace Huan Xian is just to pay 12% less money and food, and to supervise the supervision power of local officials. This thing is too mysterious , I have never heard of it since ancient times. Who knows if it can be implemented in practice. Besides, even if it can be implemented in practice, it can only ensure that they will not pay unjustly.
The Jin gentry were dissatisfied, while the officials were frightened and resentful. When officials from the capital to the localities saw the provision of consumption and envy, they were all frightened, angry and resentful. Without consumption and envy, state and county officials could not legitimately take away people's wealth. County officials have no place to make money, and prefecture officials and local governors naturally have no one to show filial piety. Of course, there is no way to honor officials in the capital, such as ice, charcoal, festival, and so on. What kind of official can you be if you don¡¯t have money? Just relying on the salary increase from the court and overseas subsidies, how much manor can there be?
Articles opposing the New Deal were immediately overwhelming in the Ning Newspaper, and there were also more and more articles opposing the splitting of households between households and households. Each one cited scriptures, from the tax system of Qin and Han Dynasties to the tax system of Shunzhi and Kangxi, and tried their best to refute the criticism of the New Deal. Evil, praising Kangxi's lenient approach to government.
Zhenwu, who had arrived in Baoding Prefecture, couldn't help but smile after seeing the latest Ning News, and then said in a deep voice: "Quick horse pass Qing Beile Yinyun, the Beijing News has temporarily stopped."
Qingbeile Yinyu has been very busy during this period. After receiving Zhenwu's order, he immediately felt relaxed. Zhenwu returned to Beijing, and his hard life was over.
Regarding the new policy being tried out in Shanxi, the officials, gentry and businessmen in the capital also expressed their opposition. They were all waiting to see any rebuttal from the Beijing News. Unexpectedly, there was suddenly no movement from the Beijing News. The officials, gentry and businessmen in the capital could not help but be suspicious. For whatever reason, everyone knows that the Beijing News cannot give in.
Amid the suspicion in the capital, Zhenwu hurried back to Changchun Garden.
After receiving the notification, Prince Lian Yinhu, Yijun Wang Yinxiang, Qingbeile Yinyu, Zhang Penghie, Xiao Yongzao, Song Zhu and others rushed to the front hall of Dan Ningju in Changchun Garden to meet him.
For the big debate between the Jingbao Ning Pao, several people are well known. This is manipulated by Zhenwu. However, several people are a little pondering. Why should Zhenwu do so?
Looking at the current situation, it seems that it is out of control. Both the government and the public, officials, gentlemen and businessmen are strongly opposed to the New Deal. Now it has become a situation where it is difficult to get out of the situation. I don¡¯t know if Zhenwu still has a back-up, or he is no longer able to control it. With such momentum If a huge debate ends in an anticlimactic manner, or if it completely loses control, it will be a big blow to the majesty of the royal family and the reputation of the court. Several people outside the palace are secretly thinking about how to deal with the aftermath and how to deal with it beautifully. Endgame.
Just when everyone was thinking secretly, the eunuch Bao Fuquan, who had been idle for two months, walked out in high spirits, glanced at everyone, and said calmly and calmly: "The emperor has a decree to announce that all of you are here to see him. .¡±
Prince Lian Yinhu hurriedly led everyone in. After entering the main hall, several people knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Yinhu and others, respectfully wish to have His Majesty's peace."
Zhenwu glanced at a few people and said with a smile: "No courtesy, I will give you a seat."
After several people thanked them and sat down, Yinhu smiled and said: "The emperor went on a tour of Shanxi and Shaanxi. He saw that the sky was getting lighter and darker, but he was more energetic."
"I ride on the road every day, and we are more than a hundred miles away. The wind and sun are blowing, and black spots are inevitable." Zhenwu said with a slight smile.
Yinxiang bowed and said: "The emperor has been busy with state affairs. In just two months, he has traveled thousands of miles back and forth. I feel guilty that I can't accompany you. The emperor is a body of gold, so he should put the body of a dragon as the most important thing."
Seeing that the few people who arrived were in a hurry, Zhenwu knew that the next few people would come to give advice, so he waved his hands and said with a smile: "This patrol is in a hurry." After saying that, he asked: "The capital master How is the situation?"
"Go back to the emperor, everything is well." Yinsu hurriedly bowed and said.
Zhenwu nodded slightly and then said: "I have repeatedly ordered not to misappropriate disaster relief money and food, but Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces still turned a deaf ear and misappropriated and deducted disaster relief money and food without authorization for use in rivers. The local deficit is also appalling. In order to prevent local officials from maliciously exploiting the people. In order to fill the deficit, we had no choice but to clear Shanxi's deficit in advance and implement the New Deal, which is also the trend. Now, both the government and the public, officials and the people are strongly opposed to the Shanxi New Deal and Shanxi's New Deal. How do you think we should deal with it?"
After hearing these words, several people secretly slandered them. How should they deal with it? Didn¡¯t you single-handedly plan the great debate between Ning News and Beijing News? It won't end at the end or give up halfway. Zhang Pengye bowed and said: "Back to the emperor, it is really the best policy to guide public opinion positively."
Yinxiang continued: "Your Majesty, I am stupid. Ningbao is also the court's public opinion organization in Jiangnan. Why don't you guide it directly, but do the opposite?"
