In the past few days, everyone in Shatian County has been discussing one thing, and that is about the school donations in Shatian County.
At the main entrance of the county school, Master Lu has asked someone to prepare a stone monument that is more than ten feet high. This stone monument is called the Aid-study Merit Monument. Anyone who donates to Shatian County’s schools must leave their name on the stone tablet. The most eye-catching piece has a total of one hundred names, the donor first, and the first place. For these one hundred names, the donation amount requires at least one hundred taels of silver.
Donated more than five hundred taels of silver. Good scholars can recommend a child to the county school. The most striking thing is that Wanhelou shopkeeper Ren Jiagen donated one thousand taels of silver. His name is engraved in the front position, and his son Ren Yuequan is also eligible to study in the county.
At this time, Shatian County became lively. Although Shatian County did not have a strong style of study, there were many businesses. Although the people were poor, there were many rich people.
If Ren Jiagen can afford to donate silver, is it possible that Boss Wang of the Western Sichuan Chamber of Commerce lacks silver? In the eyes of a big business owner like Boss Wang, what is Ren Jiagen a restaurant owner?
Therefore, boss Wang also generously donated one thousand taels of silver, and then several other bosses donated five hundred taels of silver, unwilling to be left behind. These bosses arranged for their children to study in the county.
Shatian County and even Liangzhou as a whole are not prosperous, but for businessmen, their desire to change their low status is the most urgent!
The Dakang dynasty scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, were ranked last, and naturally the lowest position. Merchants who had money were not allowed to wear silk or satin, nor could they take a sedan chair when they were rich, or wear boots when they were rich. If in Jiangnan, the businessmen can't do anything about it, it is difficult for them to change their origins.
But in places like Liangzhou, merchants can change their nationality. Here the power is in power, the emperor is high in mountains, and the Dakang law is in name only. Besides, most of the merchants in Longyou come from other places. They go back three generations, almost There are no locals.
Many of his business records are already untestable. Longyou is very poor and lacks money. Money can make the ghosts grind, and the business uses silver to open the way, even if it is a problem like changing his birth, he can do no harm.
However, for businessmen, even though they have changed their backgrounds, they cannot truly become the masters in the eyes of others. Many businessmen have no other craftsmanship in this life besides being in business.
Therefore, their generation is not going to succeed, and hope is all pinned on the next generation. The so-called so-called inferior quality, only the high school, iron **** like Ren Jiagen, is very stingy with other things, only the son is studying and studying. He can do anything at all costs.
There are many people who share the same thoughts as Ren Jiagen. They have become the objects of Lu Zheng's unity. No, Lu Zheng is just a clever trick to let these big shopkeepers, merchants, who are difficult to deal with on weekdays. Line up one by one to give money!
At this moment, it happened that Wang Wenyuan asked the people below to rigorously investigate the businesses in the county. These businessmen were even more scrambling, lest the money be delivered late.
How can business people stand up to the investigation these years? Longyou, a place with poor mountains and bad waters, if you don’t pay attention to the trade with the north, how could there be so many companies nesting here?
Therefore, businessmen are like stepping on a tightrope, always cautiously, like walking on thin ice. Over time, these businessmen also realized a way to deal with officials.
As it is now, the towering stone stele at the entrance of the county school can be engraved with their names. This matter will surely be passed on by the people of the county. According to Lu Zheng, these people are all great people who are dedicated to helping students. How can they communicate privately with the barbarians of the northern Turks?
Dian Shi Wei Qing is also embarrassed, and the head catcher Ban Biao feels even more headache. In this situation, all the gangs in the county government are very tight on hand. Kou Xiangwen draws their salaries from the bottom of their heads, and they can still remain loyal to the master of the county.
Because they can more or less think of some ways, they mingled on the street and found these merchants. Can the bosses of these shopkeepers not honor them?
Cannibalism and short hands. At this time, Wang Wenyuan asked them to stab the merchants’ dens and turn their faces with the merchants. It was indeed difficult to do so, but it was hard to violate their fate. People like Wen Qing and Ban Biao pointed to the county lord to reward Eat it!
Since then, they tried to find a way, and it happened that Lu Zheng had committed such a thing at this time, and they just reported the matter to the host of the county.
Lu Zheng’s county studies rely on the help of businessmen. Wang Wenyuan prides himself on attaching importance to enlightenment. This matter affects his whole body, so he can’t help but observe!
The merchants just donated silver, and their names are still engraved on the stone tablets. The people of the county are praising them. At this time, they have done too much. Is this appropriate?
...
In the back house of the county government office, the weather gradually started to get hot. There was little rain in the north, and the weather was dull. Wang Wenyuan was holding a fan in his hand, feeling quite agitated.
Master Chen Xiaojing stood next to his head and did not speak, but occasionally glanced at Wang Wenyuan with his eyes. For Chen Xiaojing, he was very entangled recently. His first entanglement was the matter of the five aunts in the back house of the county office. This woman became more and more courageous. , Sooner or later something will happen like this.
Even if Wang Wenyuan trusted Chen Xiaojing again, he could not tolerate Chen Xiaojing wearing a big green hat on him. Chen Xiaojing is now suffering from this incident.
In addition, at the moment Lu Zheng is infiltrating more and more in Shatian County. Originally, Wang Wenyuan thought that he was the county prince. He sat firmly on the high platform and asked Lu Zheng and Kou Xiangwen to pinch each other, and he was in the middle of balance.
But the immediate result is that the contradiction between Wang Wenyuan and Kou Xiangwen has intensified, and the fight between the two who used to hide in the dark is now becoming more explicit.
However, Lu Zheng was very clever about getting along with him. Not only did the two adults get along well with him, but also the county officials and the officials at all levels got along well with him. Chen Xiaojing is still holding that red banknote in his arms!
When Wang Wenyuan is old, it is like the sun at five or six o'clock in the afternoon, the sun sets in the mountains, and the rivers go down. Even if he can die without being stiff, he can't stand the test of time.
And Lu Zheng, like the rising sun, is already terrific right now. Wang Wenyuan and Kou Xiangwen have fallen in the fight against him. Over time, Lu Zheng will only get stronger and stronger.
People go to high places and water flows to low places. Chen Xiaojing's ambition is not too big, but he is also rational enough. He wants to take advantage of the recent opportunity to be able to invest in Lu Zheng's door, so that he can sit back and relax for the rest of his life. .
"Honorable, why don't you speak? Are you thinking about something?" Wang Wenyuan suddenly said.
"Uh...ah..." Chen Xiaojing went completely sleepwalking, and was awakened by Wang Wenyuan, only to realize that he had lost his mind. He paused, organizing words and saying:
"Master, Master Lu has such a beautiful hand. It really kills three birds with one stone! Who would have thought that running a county and school would be difficult for us to do before, and Master Lu would be able to solve it with a single stone?
I have to take this matter, and I am really convinced. "
Wang Wenyuan closed the folding fan and said, "Hey, filial piety, I didn't let you slap a horse, what should I do about this situation now? Lord Lu, his prestige in the county is growing day by day, I am afraid that the people of Shatian County will continue to do so. There is only Lord Lu in my eyes, Lord Wang will never be there again!"
Chen Xiaojing was taken aback for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Master, you are a smorgasbord! Master, in fact, you are the least emotional at this time. The more you are at this time, the more important it is.
The situation in Shatian County is getting better and better this year. This is like a peach tree that we have raised for many years. This year it finally blooms and bears fruit. It seems that the fruit is about to mature, but who can pick it?
Lord, Master Lu was able to go so smoothly because both you and Master Kou wanted to pick peaches, but Master Lu was so good at it, he dismissed it.
And things in the world are often so strange, the more you want in your heart, the less you can get it. And unintentionally inserting willows to make a shadow,"
Wang Wenyuan frowned deeply. He knew what Chen Xiaojing said was reasonable, but for him, patience was really painful.
Politics is patience. Wang Wenyuan has not learned anything else in his entire life. He has only learned patience. It took him more than 20 years to get a chance to become an official. He has served in the county seat for a few years, and now it’s time to Time for patience.
There are many people in this world who know how to show strength, and there are few people who can show weakness. Wang Wenyuan is a master in this area, but today, he is a little emotionally unstable, and he said:
"Do you really do nothing? Wait quietly, plainly?"
Chen Xiaojing said: "Master, you can also do something, such as going to the county school again to see the progress of the new school. There is no inscription on the plaque of the new school. The master of the county is qualified to leave the calligraphy to Shatian County in the future. Learned students.
In addition, those merchants donated silver and became popular, but they still owe a fire. The so-called finishing touch. If the adults can hold a banquet in Wanhe Building, they will all invite all these merchants to have a banquet. This thing is done more flawlessly! "
"I..." Wang Wenyuan took a deep breath, his mood suddenly became bad, Chen Xiaojing said: "The county lord, don't forget, you are the county lord in Shatian County, you are the county lord, Lord Lu, or Lord Kou, they are all yours. Right man and right arm.
Lord Kou has done a great job, and our county’s tax money and food are unprecedentedly plentiful. This is your deed. Master Lu has made our county reborn in the education and education of the county. This is also your deeds, Master County. If you don't show up at the critical moment, who can remember that you are the county chief? "Chen Xiaojing said word by word.
Wang Wenyuan's face was uncertain. What did he do for the Shatian county magistrate? Why is he so keen on promotion? Is it just for the sake of being an official?
Obviously not. Wang Wenyuan likes the taste of holding power in his hand. Holding power in his hand seems to be able to control everything. That kind of feeling is intoxicating and difficult to extricate. Now in Shatian County, Wang Wenyuan is more and more unable to control Lu Zheng and Kou Xiangwen... …
