Dress as a villain

It made these county magistrates ashamed.Zhang Changle not only unsealed the script, but also specially rewarded the students who dared to sue the county magistrate.

The imperial court dredges the local propaganda to guide the righteous way.This move immediately aroused a good reputation among the people.Of course, there are also ignorant people who think that the court will temporarily compromise for the sake of face.

This statement was quickly criticized by the local learned elders, who also educated the common people to eliminate illiteracy. There has never been a dynasty in which the common people can speak out boldly and dare to improve boldly.

This dynasty must be the most lenient and loving court in all dynasties.

So the three scripts aimed at the Southern Central Plains became a bridge between the common people and the imperial court.

Diners in teahouses, restaurants, and even roadside stalls all over the place will take the time to talk: "Have you watched Dou E's injustice today?"

"Look, the men, women and children in the family are all crying."

"No, I heard that opera was sung earlier, but I didn't expect Hu Xiong to adapt it. After watching it, it makes people feel that the court is really dark."

"Shhh, let me tell you, are you not getting enough to eat or not warm enough to arrange the court here?"

"What are you afraid of? Your Highness is a lord of benevolence who is rare in thousands of years. She loves the people like a child. She won't blame us if you say a few words."

"The children in the family have to be careful, don't let them talk nonsense."

Although everyone is apprehensive, they still have a sense of proportion.At the same time, Si Qitong ordered the establishment of a people's livelihood appeal box.Collect the needs of people's livelihood in various places.

The county government began to set up a complaint box and sent officials to publicize it. At first, no common people dared to vote, thinking it was just a display.

County magistrates from all over the country wait nervously every day, for fear that the people's livelihood demands too much, and His Highness will think that they are incapable of governing.As a result, the people's livelihood appeal box was not trusted by the people at first, and then it caused panic among the county officials.

Si Qitong specially sent people from Xiwei to appease the county magistrates from all over the country, and even asked people to cross out the place names in the appeal box, only looking at the appeal, not the place names.

The county magistrates were immediately relieved. They sent people to guide those in need to drop in boxes, and sent teachers to write appeals for the people.

At the beginning, the common people just had the mentality of giving it a try. Most of their appeals were for the peace and security of the people, to have enough food and clothing, and then to be able to go to school, or hope to have more fields to grow food.After that, there are various appeals from other thoughtful people.

The people's livelihood appeal box was sent to Tianjing, and the Military Machine Pavilion became very busy. It began to sort out various appeals, and then reported them to Si Qitong.

Si Qitong and Xie Lanzhi looked at the statistics in the appeal box, and they still ranked first in food and clothing for people's livelihood.That is to want to eat rice.

Xie Lanzhi thought about it, logically speaking, the total amount of grain produced last year and this year is enough for the common people to have thirty meals of white rice a month, why are there still some common people who seldom eat rice?

Could it be that the distribution is uneven and has been corrupted?With this idea, the two thought of going together.

Si Qitong ordered Zhang Changle to report all the corrupt officials from all over the place.

In the end, it was discovered that there was indeed corruption, but those who were corrupted were all precious peanuts, which were sold to merchants for extra money, and no one dared to think about food.

The two quickly turned their attention to the grain fields in various places.

Si Qitong ordered the Secretary of Agriculture to send someone to the bottom to count the grain fields that can be planted, and the grain fields that are not suitable for planting, what are suitable for planting?It is best to adapt to local conditions.

She allocated 100 taels to the secretary of agriculture, and asked all the secretary of agriculture to go to the countryside with all their strength, and began to analyze the soil and climate of various places. What is suitable for planting?

Xie Lanzhi said: "I will send out Xie's merchants, and they will open up the agricultural trade economy in various places."

Si Qitong said: "We really need to rectify the folks."

It used to be to increase food production capacity, but now that the weather is good and there is a large granary in the Southern Region, the food is enough to distribute per capita.However, there are natural differences in food in different environments.

Now there are many places where you can get enough to eat, but there are also many places where you can't get enough to eat.

It's almost the end of the year, so that everyone can have a good year, Si Qitong originally wanted to order the grain merchants to sell grain at a low price during the Chinese New Year, but the current grain price has been controlled by her and has not risen again.The grain merchants earned a guaranteed reserve price for the court.The shipping fee was paid by the imperial court itself.

Xie Lanzhi thought of a way for her: Let the private businessmen participate in the economic flow, share a certain share for the private businessmen to do business, and reduce the cost of the court.Moreover, it is temporarily stipulated how many civilian merchants will be sent out in which town, and then the nearby villages will only come to the town to work.Then it is up to the government to guide the laborers and stipulate the monthly salary.

Moreover, civilians and merchants must hire a certain number of migrant workers, and the imperial court will subsidize civilians and merchants, or reduce taxes.

It has only been more than a year since the commercial tax was implemented, and the two states in the southern and central plains have implemented it thoroughly. Except for the Si family, the fourth-rank officials, and the following are basically forced to collect taxes.And supervised by Xiwei.

Xie Lanzhi decided to use road construction to increase jobs.After all, food is abundant now, and there is food pressure. As long as many things are controlled well, success can be achieved smoothly.

After Si Qitong issued the new order, officials from all over the country have already operated proficiently. As long as they operate according to order, they don't need to share the risk.Everyone is satisfied with this mature mechanism, and it doesn't take too much effort to implement it.

Because the folk tales were still being discussed for a long time, the governments around the country soon posted a list of private and commercial companies, and the private and commercial companies spent money with the government to obtain channels, and obtained road construction rights from the Ministry of Industry, as well as a large amount of cement dust.The imperial court gave money to the civilian merchants, and the civilian merchants hired migrant workers to build roads for two dollars a month.Now the price of rice is five jin a catty, one qian is equal to one hundred wen, and two qian is equal to forty catties of rice a month.Sweet potatoes cost one penny and three catties.

Civilians and merchants hire people to build roads. After the roads are built, they will be rewarded by the court. After they hire people, the people will spend money if they have money, and the consumption can pay taxes to the court.

Since it is still an agricultural society, at most the agricultural trade economy can be developed, so we can only start with crops, basic necessities of life, and transportation.

Soon, civilians and merchants hired a large number of people to build roads everywhere, and the canal repair diverted everyone's attention.

Later, the government released the fourth story of the Grand Duke’s Judgment Case. The folks basically had the money to buy books to read at home, and they could show off to their neighbors. Those who could not read, the libraries everywhere drew pictures, and all versions were sold out among the folks.

Support many writers.

Hu Xiong thought that his words of exposing the darkness of the Southern Central Plains court in the past could influence the people, and he also saw that the government's interference aroused public opinion's resentment, but it stopped after a while.

The monarch on the other side actually set up a people's livelihood appeal box to collect the appeals of the people.The nobles of Hu Xiong all laughed at Si Qitong's act of overreaching in order to buy the low-level people.

He thinks that Si Qitong spends huge sums of money to the people in order to publicize his image as a Mingjun. If he is so profligate, he believes that the treasury of the Southern Central Plains will soon be wiped out by a woman.

It is estimated that the [-] million taels of inheritance left by Emperor Xicheng will be squandered in a few years.

The nobles of Huxiong were all watching the jokes, but the people of Huxiong didn't think so. They didn't understand any profound truths, but their hearts were made of flesh. They knew who was good to the people and who was not good to the people.

Even though the monarchs of the Southern Central Plains are putting on a show, they do contribute money and efforts for the people, and do their best, unlike the nobles here who only know how to ask and ignore the people's livelihood.

Just as the nobles of the Hu and Hungarians laughed, they waited to see the scene of the lack of state treasury in the Southern Central Plains.The people of Hu Xiong began to complain in private that the nobles didn't care about people's livelihood at all. Compared with the southern Central Plains, it was a world of difference.

Even the Central Plains people with Hu Xionguo couldn't help being envious.The life of the people in the Central Plains was as difficult as that of the low-level Hu Huns. Although the grain production in the north was sufficient every year, it all went into the treasury, and most of it was supplied to the nobles and the army.Sixty percent of the taxes were collected.The remaining [-]% and at least [-]% will go to the cruel officials from all over the country.Twenty percent of them can't support their family members at all, and everyone has to go to the town to work after busy farming, or drive cattle and horses for the nobles, and grow vegetables, so that they can barely have a stutter.

The Hu Xiong people are used to being cows and horses.Soon on the [-]th day of the new year, when the people of Hu and Xiong heard that the people's livelihood appeal box in the South Central Plains had played a good role, and the people there hoped to have enough to eat, the monarch of the South Central Plains spent money to hire civilians and businessmen, through which they hired People built roads, so that many people earned a fortune and went back to the village to celebrate the New Year.

There is a boom in buying New Year’s goods in various towns and cities. This year’s New Year’s goods are of a single type, sweet potatoes are enough, and pork is fifteen cents a catty. Transported back to the village.

A large number of food sweet potatoes were purchased and transported back to the village, which met the needs of the people's livelihood.

At least ten days during the Chinese New Year, you can live comfortably without worrying about daily necessities.

Dredging farmers in various places, buying manpower to work, keeping food down, and dredging the economy through businessmen running around, has indeed received great results.It also relieves the pressure on places that cannot grow food and lack food.

The South Central Plains lived this year happily, with plenty of food and clothing.The people of Hu Xiong are far away, and they didn't know how the New Year in the Southern Central Plains was going to be.Until the merchants who came back from the Southern Central Plains told others what they saw about how the people in the Southern Central Plains celebrated the New Year.There are fish, meat and rice.

Hu Xiong people suddenly exploded.The most they can eat during the Chinese New Year is millet, which is not considered rice in the Southern Central Plains, but porridge at most.

The news that the people in the Southern Central Plains can feast on fish and meat made the Huxiong people extremely unbalanced. Usually, Hu Xiongguo publicized how well the Huxiong people were living.At that time, the Hu Xiong people were proud of their mother country.

In just two years now, the South Central Plains has overtaken the North.Everyone is unbalanced.This year, some people even refused to hand in the food, wanting to have a good year.

This is something that has never happened before.The nobles from all over the country were shocked and angry, and one or two ordinary people could do this, at least they could solve it by force.

Unexpectedly, several difficult counties could not pay the food, so they cooked it overnight.The nobles couldn't receive the food, and they had to be punished severely. This group of people wanted to fight them like dead pigs who were not afraid of boiling water.Some people followed suit at the beginning, which caused the nobles a headache.

Anshan heard that the people at the bottom were so sad by the southern Central Plains that they didn't want to pay any more food this year.He immediately sent someone to kill chickens and monkeys.

Aqina stopped Anshan, but asked Anshan to waive the winter grain.

The people of Hu Xiong were very happy to be exempted from the winter grain, and they were ordered to replenish the winter grain next year.Some of the common people of Hu Xiong formed a team to attack the local officials, but they were directly suppressed by the Aqina faction.I couldn't help but killed him directly.A good year has seen blood instead.The people at the bottom of Hu Xiong were so panicked that they dared not mention the matter of food reduction or exemption.

Thousands of miles away, the Southern Central Plains didn't know about this, and the people everywhere enjoyed themselves happily, and the number of people who starved to death every day gradually decreased. Perhaps it was because this year was too rich, and it was once known as the prosperity of Xiaoyuan among the people.

Lanzhang Palace was also beaming.

Xie Shangguang, Qiqi, Si Qinian, the two parents gathered around a table for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Xie Lanzhi allowed the three children to drink some rice wine today, and she even made a special toast to her brother-in-law.

She hadn't seen this brother-in-law for a long time, and now that he was tanned and his body was strong, she couldn't help but sigh that time makes people grow.

"Xi Nian, are you still used to being in Bingzhou?"

Si Xinian put down his chopsticks and said, "Marshal, I'm fine, and I've built three roads in Bingzhou, each of which leads to Tianjing."

"Tianjing's material resources are continuously transported to various places, and many of them pass through Bingzhou. For this reason, Bingzhou attracts businessmen from all over the world, creating a prosperous scene."

Xie Lanzhi nodded and praised him: "Bingzhou is the bridge between the land of Jiujin and Tianjing. As long as you repair the road, why not worry about people coming?"

"It's all thanks to my sister who guides the grassroots to build roads every day, which brings me thinking." Si Qinian never thought that building a road can make the people prosperous.When the road is good, people will naturally pass by. As long as the local catering is just right, many people can be supported by growing vegetables and raising pigs.

What's more, Si Qitong has appointed Bingzhou to open a large pig farm by name, and the pigs raised in Bingzhou will be sold to various places in the future.Si Xinian didn't expect that after he finished planting sweet potatoes, he would soon raise pigs.

And it's a lucrative job.
