Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 561
When Shen Zhezi informed Tao Hong that the matter had been resolved, Tao Hong was a little dazed.

He also worked under Shen Zhezi's command, and he knew the huge resources that Shen Zhezi could mobilize, so he asked to come here, precisely because this matter was not a big problem for Shen Zhezi.But even so, he never thought that the solution would be so easy and simple. This was considered a difficult problem for his eldest father, but when it fell on this son-in-law, it seemed so easy and freehand with just a few words!

Looking at Tao Hong's astonishment, Shen Zhezi was also full of emotion.The resolution of this matter seems simple, but behind it is the hard work of their Shen family and even the entire Wu people group in the past few years, as well as the considerable progress they have made in the current situation.

This kind of cross-regional allocation of resources is actually very simple. Since I can't do it, I will leave it to someone who can do it.But the question is, even if someone can do it, why should you listen to me?
Originally, it was something that could be solved with just a few words, but the balance of interests and trade-offs contained in it cannot be fully explained in a few words.Even before the confrontation between the Shen family and the Wang family came to fruition, it would take a lot of effort for Shen Zhezi to persuade those Jiangzhou people, and he might not be able to persuade them.

But now, things have become simpler, and the reason is even simpler, that is, people at that time had confidence in him!The same sentence, the same thing, because he is in a different position, when he says it or does it, the meaning will be very different.

Shen Zhezi is not arrogant, Tao Kan can't do this, even Wang Dao can't do it.If it wasn't for him, no one in the situation would be able to do it!This is a staged result of all his past efforts. Those who have attained the Tao will help. Everyone can explain the truth, but what is the "Tao"?And how to get it?

"I have entrusted Jiangzhou's good family to complete this matter. My elder brother is on official business, so it is inconvenient for me to force you to stay. If you are going to leave the capital in the near future and return to Jingzhou, the property should arrive soon, so you can accept it with confidence. The follow-up is up to me to complete.”

Shen Zhezi said with a smile: "It has been more than a year since I left Tao Gong. It is a pity that I have not listened to the teachings of the virtuous elders for a long time. Fortunately, there is no shortage of examples. The martyrs are full of ambition in their old age. What Tao Gong did is what is called body. He is a state official, and he is determined to open up the frontiers and restore the land, and prevent the Hulu from oppressing the Central Plains for a long time! Those with lofty ideals will not do it alone. There are no previous sages, and there are successors. The husband encourages himself, and we will join hands in breaking the thieves in the future!"

Tao Hong was really eager to return to his heart, and he still hesitated to Shen Zhezi's guarantee.In fact, his elder father Tao Kan also negotiated with Jiangzhou people a lot, and the response he got was just a lot of excuses and complaints, which was really not so easy to talk about.

So after two days of interviews with the Jiangzhou family, Shen Zhezi sent Tao Hong away from Jiankang, and at the same time met Tao Kan's other son, Tao Bin.It's just that Tao Bin didn't have a good attitude towards Shen Zhezi. He probably thought that Shen Zhezi didn't want to help, so he just found a perfunctory excuse.

Shen Zhezi didn't explain much about it, and there was no need to explain anything to Tao Bin at all.He has a lot of respect for Tao Kan, but to be honest, he looks down on Tao Kan's sons.Tao Kan grew up from a poor family and became powerful in the world, half in charge of Jiangdong, so he is naturally a remarkable person.However, if power and position are cut off for a lifetime, if it is just because of family background, it is not always the case.

In short, it is a sentence, Lao Tzu is a hero, but a son may not be a hero.The so-called superior blood, or superior family status, is all farting.Regardless of ancient or modern times, everyone's own efforts are the most indelible foundation of a person's standing.

In the follow-up contact with Jiangzhou people, Shen Zhezi also emphasized that he must get the receipt issued by Tao Kan, on the one hand to collect evidence, and on the other hand to leave an IOU.You know, if he compensates at the original price in Jiankang, he also needs to spend real money and food.He is willing to help Tao Kan, but he is also helping the emergency rather than the poor. It is impossible to do good deeds without leaving a name.

Among other things, Tao Kan still refuses to give up on Jiang Xia.So even though Wen Qiao had already negotiated here, Shen Zhezi still couldn't arrange for King Qiao to take up his post because he was worried that Tao Kan would resist.After this incident, he hoped that Tao Kan could reciprocate and show something.

Although this is inevitably suspected of giving and receiving, this is the way things are done in this era.It is naturally politically clear to rely on Taichung to decide everything, but the problem is that Taichung must also have that kind of control.

Another point is that Tao Kan's use of troops in Xiangyang, whether successful or not, is a temptation.Whatever achievements Tao Kan has made, Yu Yi must make some adjustments here.If Tao Kan goes well, then Yuzhou might as well take a bigger step. Even if the old situation cannot be completely restored, if Hefei can be taken back and the defense line will be taken a big step forward, this will actually be even more exciting for Jiankang. In the recovery of Xiangyang.

After all, Yuzhou's defenselessness is always a sharp knife hanging over Jiankang's head, which is painful to the skin.

If Yu Yi advances to Hefei, Jingzhou and Xuzhou must cooperate and make corresponding adjustments.In short, it is impossible for Shen Zhezi to let Tao Kan take the 20 dendrobium grain for nothing.

Moreover, borrowing food this time is also an attempt for Shen Zhezi.His own conception of Dingcang is extremely grand, and he hopes that the existence of Dingcang can replace part or completely replace the imperial court's function of allocating things from all directions.

Of course, it is not accurate to say that. Originally, the court's ability in this area has disappeared, and it is not so much replaced as it is re-established.

Shen Zhezi hopes that Wuzhong's tax package law can be popularized throughout Jiangdong with the help of Dingcang.Dingcang replaces local counties and counties to pay taxes and Taiwan funds, and local counties and counties store this part of expenditure in Dingcang.Let Dingcang act as a bridge between the place and the center, so as to gain a greater mobilization force.

Of course, this idea is too radical, and it must be difficult to implement it.But it is also Shen Zhezi's consistent style of doing things. Regardless of whether it is possible or not, just give it a try and change it if it doesn't work.

On the way home, the more Tao Bin thought about it, the more annoyed he felt, so he called his nephew in front of him, frowned and asked, "Dachang, do you think what that raccoon said is true or false? Could it be that he can't do this? This perfunctory?"

Tao Hong's face darkened slightly when he heard this, and he said in a dull voice: "Uncle's words are biased. I have always known that the son-in-law is a human being. If he can't do it, he won't pretend to be perfunctory, and promises will be fulfilled. "

Tao Bin was a little embarrassed to be confronted by his nephew, but this time he entered the capital and asked many people, he saw that Tao Hong had a lot of connections, so he couldn't really reprimand him as a nephew.After hearing the words, he just said embarrassingly: "I'm not belittling people behind my back, but I always feel that there are too many mysteries in this matter. Earlier, your elder father was trapped by money and food. It's not that he didn't ask those Tuzong in Jiangzhou, but he didn't agree .Even I have been there once, but there is still no result. The raccoon family has indeed been famous for the past two years, but in this land of Jiangxi, can his words be more effective than your elder father?"

The more Tao Bin talked, the more he felt that this matter was not credible, and he was unavoidably worried about gains and losses.You must know that his father has many heirs, and there is no confirmed heir for such a famous noble.Originally, Tao Hong's father, Tao Zhan, had a lot of voices, but Tao Zhan Fuqian died in the military disaster last year.The rest of these sons are naturally eager to move.

Another brother of Tao Bin, Tao Xia, has been an official in Taichung for a long time, but he has not been able to ask his father for an edict for a long time.This time Tao Bin came and got the imperial edict, which was already a good thing.If the problem of food shortage can be solved by taking advantage of the trend, then naturally, he will be able to win his father's favor even more.

But from Shen Zhezi, he got an ambiguous answer, which made him unsure. He had to know that the military was imminent. If he couldn't have a letter of approval, he would report it back like this, but it turned out to be useless.If the military is delayed, even the credit for the previous edict may be erased.

Hearing his uncle's rambling words there, Tao Hong was really annoyed, so he simply retreated.The family affairs are a mess, even his eldest father Tao Kan can't do anything about it, and he himself is caught in the open and secret struggles of several uncles, which is really disturbing.

A group of people went upstream along the river, and there was nothing at first.Soon after passing Liyang, he passed Xunyang again.After passing through Xunyang, Tao Bin became restless. Not only were banners erected on the boat, but also Yubao and other propitious items were displayed on the deck.Moreover, he also distributed posts along the river and summoned the Jingzhou Office to escort them along the river.

Tao Hong was really helpless about this, he understood that this was deliberately done by his uncles in order to increase the prestige in front of the Jingzhou tribe, and as the eldest father got older, it became more and more severe, and he continued to stop.Fortunately, his elder father is indeed of great merit, and he has Yu Bao, who was rewarded by Taichung, advocating and waiting for Yi Jia, otherwise this alone would have caused much trouble for his elder father.

Baling, where Jingzhou is now in town, has arrived after passing through Wuchang.As he approached the base camp, Tao Bin restrained himself again, lest his actions fall into his father's eyes.Because of his ostentation along the way, the trip was delayed for a while, and it was already deep winter when he returned to Baling.

Although it has not yet reached the point where the mountains are covered by heavy snow, the waterways are dry and out of service, and the cold wind is whimpering, which makes Tao Bin even less confident about Shen Zhezi's promise.So I decided in my heart that when I saw my father later, I would only talk about asking for an edict and never ask for food.

However, when they were led into the Jingzhou army base camp, they saw high grain bags piled up in the camp where the supplies were used. Judging from the quantity, there might be tens of thousands of grains.

"Dachang, could it be that the raccoon dog really drove people from Jiangzhou to transport food here?"

Seeing this scene, Tao Bin became uneasy again.

Tao Hong was already unbearably disturbed along the way, and after hearing the words, he just waved his hands and said, "Uncle has his own foresight, so I don't dare to speak lightly to avoid misunderstanding."

After entering the camp, Tao Bin saw his father sitting deep in the soft bed, and first went up to the foreword to talk about the request for an edict in the stage.

Tao Kan was in a pretty good mood, and while listening to his son's report, he nodded with a smile on his face. After the matter was finished, he asked again, "Did you do anything else during this trip besides asking for an edict?"

When Tao Bin heard this, he was very tangled in his heart, not knowing whether he should say it or not.If he said that the outside food was raised by his father from other sources, then he was lying and delusional.If you don't say it, if the food is really sent by Jiangzhou people, you will miss this great achievement in vain.

Seeing that his father's eyes gradually turned sharp, Tao Bin had no choice but to bite the bullet and replied: "After the edict, I had planned to return early. But Dachang still wanted to do something, to visit the Shen family's raccoon family for food... "

"raccoon dog? Ha, don't talk about raccoon dog! After your father returns to the land in the future, your life and death may all depend on Shen Hou's thought!"

The Jiangzhou people delivered the grain to Baling as scheduled, but Tao Kan didn't feel much relaxed in his heart. This time, no matter how he looked at the help, he could see a trace of demonstration.It is still the old land of this town, but the characters are completely different!

As for the reward, it is really not compulsory. . .It’s not a hypocrite to say that. Up to now, there are more and more clues. It’s a bit tiring to read. In fact, it’s also tiring to write.
