Fu Song

Chapter 437 What a terrible word

Cen Zhong left Dushan with a feeling of loss.

He has always felt that he is a benchmark in the world who can read well and do things well.

He not only looks down on those reckless and idiots who don't read books, but also looks down on those who are stupid enough to read books and only know the meaning, and only know poetry and songs.

Because most uneducated fools know that they are stupid, and they are still willing to obey the leader and obey the command.But those guys who read the book stupidly think that God is the first and he is the second. It is obvious that they are not good enough, but they still refuse to admit it. Once they do something wrong, it is the problem of others.

It's good for such a person not to do anything, at least he can only harm the people around him, but once he becomes an official and takes charge of one side, the harm will be the people of one side.

There are still quite a few people who are born like this.

Cen Zhong has always looked down on such a guy from a high position, without saying anything, but his heart is full of contempt.

Until he met Xiao Cheng.

A scholar who is as good at reading as he is or even better than him.

On this point, his old master Cen made an explanation, and Cen Zhong had to accept it.Because he himself was taught by Old Master Cen.

But at the same time, Xiao Cheng is still a person who is better than him.

Maybe it will win by several chips.

But Cen Zhong's self-esteem does not allow him to think that he is too far behind Xiao Cheng.

Compared with Cen Zhong, when Xiao Cheng came to the Southwest, he really started from nothing.

When Cen Chong came back, Xiao Cheng had already opened up the situation. The three thousand soldiers and horses he started with were given to him by Xiao Cheng.

But now, every time Cen Zhong comes to Guizhou Road, he can always see many new changes here.

Let's not talk about him about the army.

Cen Zhong felt that there was no comparison with Xiao Cheng in this direction, and he was regarded as a family source.

But he also lost to Xiao Cheng in civil affairs, which really made Cen Zhong feel ashamed.

A land contract to each household will change the old appearance of Guizhou Road.

But when I started to promote it on Guangnan West Road, I was blocked everywhere, and the promotion was extremely difficult.

The combination of taxes and fees and the increase in business taxes made Xiao Cheng's reputation among the people of Guizhou Road soar, and those who do business actually shut up and paid taxes honestly.

And when I was learning to walk in Handan, Guangnan West Road, countless people immediately jumped out, saying that I was a corrupt official who took profits from the people. It was an extreme event in which landlords and officials forced those small merchants and peddlers to death.

God is sorry, the target people who promote these policies are these small merchants, obviously those big merchants, okay?

After a long talk with Xiao Cheng, Cen Zhong understood the key point here.

Policies are good, but what matters more is the people who implement them.

No ruler wants the people under his rule to live in poverty, without food and clothing.

Even the stinking guy who didn't eat minced meat, deep down in his heart, might be full of sympathy and love for the poor people.

Policies are easy to formulate, but the process of implementation is the biggest problem.

The biggest difference between the two places is here.

Understand the key point, but Cen Zhong is still at a loss as to how to do it.

Although he is now a pacifier, he is not like Xiao Cheng who has absolute authority on Guizhou Road, and most of the officials under his rule are influenced by him or afraid of his reputation, and basically dare not mess around.

Therefore, in the process of implementing the policy, although it is sometimes out of shape, it is generally maintained within a tolerable range.

But I can't do it on Guangnan West Road.

To put it bluntly, Xiao Cheng started anew on Guizhou Road and rebuilt a building on top of the ruins.

As for myself, I was just tinkering in the original house. Although I dared to replace some columns that had been emptied by termites, the more rafters and purlins were basically left unchanged.

If you move, you will hurt your muscles and bones.

Revolution is not a dinner party!

Cen Zhong still recalled in his mind the words Xiao Cheng said to him with a half-smile before leaving.

It's only eight words, but it contains incomparable blood and violence.

After all, Cen Zhong is still a scholar-bureaucrat, after all, he still can't make up his mind like Xiao Cheng, dare to overthrow everything in the past and rebuild.

But he dared to overturn everything that stood in his way.

It's just that the rhythm of his overturning is extremely well grasped, keeping things completely within a controllable range every time.

Now, this guy is going to overthrow some of the stubborn illnesses under his treatment. When he cures these stubborn illnesses, Guizhou Road will definitely rise to a new level.

Once a place is out of the right track and a good cycle is formed, its development speed will make other places dumbfounded.

At that time, Guangnan West Road will not be able to compare with Guizhou Road.

So Cen Zhong set a time point for himself. When Xiao Cheng wins Dali, he will establish a good order in Dali. If he has not sorted out Guangnan West Road, then he will admit defeat.

From then on, he willingly lived under Xiao Cheng.

I really hope that I won't lose again in this competition.

Anyway, save a little face!

For Cen Zhong's careful thought, Xiao Cheng smiled and said nothing, but Old Master Cen snorted.

The old master thought that his son had no chance of winning.

Now the old master is no longer a private school teacher. Under Xiao Cheng's repeated pleas, the old master came out of the mountain at the age of seventy and became a tutor on Guizhou Road, in charge of supervising the school administration along the way.

Xiao Cheng tried his best to lure the old master out of the mountain, let him give up drinking and see the beautiful days of Nanshan leisurely under the eastern fence, naturally he has no good intentions.

For one thing, although this old master has never passed the Jinshi examination in his life, his knowledge level is top-notch, he is an expert, and he can educate a practical man like Cen Zhong, so how can he be poor in his own work?
Secondly, the old master has been teaching for a lifetime, and there are peach gifts all over the world, let alone nearly twenty Jinshi. It is unlikely that Xiao Cheng would fool around with these people, but the old master still has more students, none of whom have passed the Jinshi exam. Then you can make up your mind!

Mr. Gui is studying all the way, maybe some former students come here to seek a way out.

Now on the road in Guizhou, there are only scholars, and what is even worse are scholars with some skills.

Even those guys who are stupid to read books can get it to enlighten the dolls on Guizhou Road, right?
Moreover, these guys who can afford to read are usually from rich families, at least from a well-to-do family, otherwise they would not be able to hire Mr. Cen who is more expensive. When these people come, they can also pull them in disguise. Consumption on Guizhou Road!
Of course, the old master is still an enthusiastic person with the world in mind. In the past, he couldn't pass the Jinshi exam or become a high-ranking official. This enthusiasm has nowhere to be released. Now that his students have given such an opportunity, the old master is full of energy.

In the past two years, the style of study on Guizhou Road has flourished, and private schools can be seen everywhere, which can be described as the sound of reading, because the old gentleman spared no effort to promote it.

A servant, a donkey, and two guards. The old man wandered around Guizhou Road. Everywhere he went, he asked for money to build a school, looking for him.

The old master’s identity is aloof, when he reaches out his hand, whether it’s from the local government or the rich and gentry, everyone responds positively, asking for money for money, for things for things, for houses for houses, within a short period of time, Guizhou Road School The museum is everywhere, the key is that it didn't cost the government a lot of money.

Regarding Cen Zhong's idea of ​​taking the old master to Guangnan West Road to enjoy happiness, the old man just rolled his eyes at him.

Cen Zhong couldn't give his father the seat of Guangnan West Road, so he could only watch his junior brother fool his father to work happily for him.

Of course, the old master also enjoyed it, and his spirit was much better than before, which made Cen Zhong very happy.This time, I even sent a bed warming girl for the old master.

This move left Xiao Cheng stunned for a while, seeing Old Master Cen's reserved but satisfied look, he immediately understood that he seemed to be doing a poor job in this matter.

After all, I am not really a scholar-bureaucrat in the true sense of this era.

But Xiao Cheng also thought maliciously, seeing old master Cen's energetic appearance now, maybe he would add a little brother or a little sister to Cen Zhong, haha, when the time comes, Cen Zhong's sons and daughters who will not be much younger than himself , the face looks good.

Eighteen brides Yasujiro,
Pale hair against red makeup.

The mandarin ducks are covered in double nights,
A tree of pear blossoms pressed begonia.

Xiao Cheng wrote such a poem to his wife as a prank. He originally wanted to tease the teacher, but old master Cen was proud of it, and proudly showed off the poem to his relatives, friends and disciples, which made Xiao Cheng It's dumbfounding.

There are proud ones, and naturally there are also frustrated ones.

Somewhat different from Cen Zhong's disappointment, Hu Yi, a third-rank official who arrived on Guizhou Road three years ago with full of malice, is now worn out by life and has no temper at all.

The violent attacks on the dignified third-rank officials from all walks of life on Guizhou Road made Hu Yi live like a walking dead.

It was Hu Yi's strategy to choose the best location for the transshipment envoy to be located in Suiyang.

Suiyang belongs to Zunyi Prefecture and is connected to Sizhou.

Hu Yi doesn't think that Bozhou and Sizhou can go the same way with Xiao Cheng to the end.

Xiao Cheng's approach will inevitably touch the bottom line of the two places in the end, and the two sides will definitely turn their heads because of the different interests and demands.

I have to say that although Hu Yi is unreliable in doing things, he is still a Jinshi after all, and he still has his own way of thinking about problems.

Now Zunyi Prefecture and Qianxi Prefecture are controlled by the Yang family and the Tian family. Compared with Tongren, Bijie, Qiannan and other places in terms of economic development, it is indeed because of these two places. The reason why the package of policies such as land contracting, tax and fee integration, and business tax increase is not effective.

Hu Yi really wanted to make trouble.

But the problem is that although there are many conflicts between the two places, no one dares to collude with Hu Yi to cause trouble.

Although the magistrate of Zunyi is still Yang Qing, Yang Qing is already old, and now he only has one name, and the real person in charge has become Yang Quan.And Yang Quan was one of the first few people who followed Xiao Cheng.

And Qiandongnan is controlled by Tian Chou. The Tian family was purged three years ago after the Luo family's ghost country incident, and the blood has not completely dried up. Who dares to jump out and make trouble?

It is one thing to do things poorly and to implement policies poorly. There are thousands of reasons to explain such problems, but collusion with outsiders is another problem of its nature.

Of course, the mainstream of the two places does not want to have any relationship with Hu Yi, but there are always some guys who have suffered major losses and have nowhere to go. Dead horses are regarded as living horse doctors, and Hu Yi is regarded as a life-saving straw. , doing something sneaky.

It is estimated that Hu Yi may be the worst transit envoy in Song Dynasty.

A two-story blue brick and tile house is his transfer envoy's yamen. It is located in the most remote street in Suiyang City. According to rumors, this house is still a ghost house and has been unable to rent out.

The reason for renting this house is because Hu Yi is poor and has no money to rent a better house.

Although the accompanying guards were afraid, they couldn't hold Hu Yi in, so they could only follow in fearfully.

It seems that Hu Yi's purple-robed official uniform and big seal are really powerful. Anyway, after everyone moved in, they didn't encounter any weird things.

However, this does not help the situation of these people.

The appeasement made Yamen turn a blind eye to Hu Yi.

There are schools at all levels of government below.

Asking for money?No!VIP?No!
Want to serve in vain?

What are you kidding?There is no such thing as white labor on Guizhou Road. If you want it, you can go to the pacifier and tell the appeasement envoy yourself.

It's a pity that after living in this green brick and tile house for three years, it was either broken here or leaked there, and Hu Yi didn't even have the money to repair it.

Even the living expenses of these people, Liu Fengkui saw that they were too pitiful. Every once in a while, he asked his subordinates to bring back the salaries of these people from Bianliang.

That's right, the salaries of these people are paid by Bianliang.

Including Hu Yi and his guards and officials.

Because Guizhou Road does not pay these people salaries, as for the envoy's money, don't even think about it.

Such a tragic transfer of fortune is really unprecedented, and I am afraid that there will be no one in the future.

Hu Yi has no way to perform his duties at all.

He could go to Guiyang Mansion and come and go freely in the yamen of the appeasement envoy, but in Suiyang, he couldn't even enter the magistrate's yamen.

The guards at the gate ignored him. Those Banzhi who could call the wind and rain in Bianliang City, if they dared to be shy in Suiyang, these yamen guards really dared to beat them with big sticks.

Who doesn't know that you are here to embarrass Xiao Futai, such a person, Xiao Futai allows you to live, that is because there are a lot of adults, and the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, but we small people can't tolerate overnight hatred .

If it were another person, I'm afraid he would have packed up his bed and gone back to Bianliang in despair.

But Hu Yi is a stickler, the more he is like this, the more he will get into a fight with Xiao Cheng, and he just won't leave.

And these people under him are really fighting against each other now!

When did you get so angry?

Since Xiao Cheng is determined not to slaughter them, then make every effort to make Xiao Cheng unhappy!

With one heart and one mind, there is aspiration to be together, and Xiao Cheng will never be exhausted.
