Chapter 531 Crazy political hall

Wang Ning'an did not do it himself in the implementation of the Qingmiao Law on Qinfeng Road. With his status, he could send his disciples. Sima Guang took over as the transfer envoy of Qinfeng Road, and Zeng Bu and Er Su were transferred to his subordinates to be responsible for the new law.

In addition, in terms of Royal Bank, Wang Ning'an sent Wang Anguo to assert the Royal Bank Jingzhao Branch, who is fully responsible for the Royal Bank in the Northwest.

This arrangement was unexpected. It is true that Wang Anguo is an old man from the Royal Bank, but he is Wang Anshi's younger brother. Everyone knows that his brother is fighting with Wang Ning'an and asking him to do it. Isn't this a dilemma!

But Wang Anguo didn't think so much. He has been with Royal Bank for many years and knows the power of the banking system. Although he is the main agent, he can only act according to the rules.

Moreover, he is in charge of the affairs of the northwest and can also give the elder brother some convenience.

Wang Anguo instinctively felt that Wang Anshi would definitely make a big fuss, but it was hard to say how old he was.

...

Since Sima Guang arrived at Qinfeng Road, he has adopted the most down-to-earth approach, first sending a large number of people to understand the situation of Qinfeng Road.

The land in the northwest is poor and suffering from war and people's livelihood is declining. Sima Guang believes that simply borrowing money from Qingmiao will make many people unable to repay it, which will cause serious bad debts and bad debts. If you just pursue it, you will aggravate the bankruptcy of the people.

This is a dilemma, which happened when Wang Anshi implemented the Qingmiao Method.

In order to achieve performance and to recover loans, officials from all over the country forced the wealthy people in the city to borrow money from Qingmiao, making a huge joke, which also became one of the reasons why the Qingmiao Law was criticized.

After discussing, Sima Guang, Su Shi, Su Zhe and others changed their original ideas.

They believe that borrowing money cannot simply help the people overcome difficulties, because many people have difficulties every year and life is very difficult.

They advocated that they should borrow money from a village or a village.

And you can't just hand over the money to the people.

For example, some villages lack water sources, reduce production and even lose harvests.

If you can provide a sum of money for green seedlings, you can rebuild the canal and dig the well.

After the water source is available, the fields are harvested, and the people naturally have the ability to repay.

This suggestion was delivered to Wang Ning'an, and of course he received praise from Wang Ning'an. The money for green seedlings was quickly divided into three levels.

The most basic thing is to target ordinary people, with good reputation and certain property mortgages. You can also find two guarantees for two households, and you can get a 2-cent annual interest rate and get the money for the green rice.

Then for villages and towns, special loans for roads, canals and wells can be provided, with interest ranging from 25% to 50%.

The third level is for counties, prefectures, military, prefectures, and government agencies at all levels that need to come forward, and the amount of loans that can be borrowed has been greatly increased, mainly to support infrastructure construction and also to open up trade routes. Wang Ning'an even encouraged the people in the northwest to raise cattle and sheep and develop wool spinning.

You should know that although he took Youzhou back, he had a falling out with Liao Kingdom. Yelu Hongji had already restricted trade between the two sides, and the wool textile industry in Hebei was in a serious lack of raw materials.

If a raw material base in the northwest can be developed, it will be a blessing for the wool spinning in Hebei!

Since Wang Ning'an proposed the idea, he should have a businessman covered in silk and fat heads and ears, and ran to Qinfeng Road to set up a cargo station and purchase local products. For a moment, the remote Qinfeng Road actually had a prosperous taste.

Obviously, Wang Ning'an did not simply implement the Qingmiao Method.

He packed many things into the local infrastructure, industrial transformation, currency promotion... and put them all into a basket and smashed them all!

Wang Ning'an's approach immediately received a strong response.

Don’t think that people in the northwest are simple and do not know how to do business. Don’t forget that, in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the merchants in Chang’an entered the desert west and went east to the ocean, and were the best people in the world who were good at doing business.

It was only when the Silk Road was cut off, the capital of the Song Dynasty moved, and the northwest declined.

The commercial cells remaining in the people's bodies are rapidly activated, and Wang Ning'an is actively guiding Qingtang and opening up the Silk Road is just around the corner.

Savvy businessmen can certainly see opportunities.

Therefore, shortly after the Qingmiao Law was implemented, books of the people appeared in various parts of Qinfeng Road. Thanks to the new laws of the court, and many scholars jointly praised Sima Guang and others for their outstanding political achievements.

All these things were sent to the Political Affairs Hall!

"Absurd, damn!"

Wen Yanbo slapped the table, "Give him two taels of color, and actually opened a dyeing workshop! What are you doing? Does Qingmiao Fa have road construction? Is there a water well digging? It's just a mess!"

Jia Changchao also echoed: "Wang Erlang is indeed too much. We don't know these things, so he did it. I thought we should write a letter immediately!"

Wang Gongchen, who was standing beside him, said angrily: "What kind of book should I go directly to His Majesty, and let Wang Ning'an explain clearly in front of the saint, what is he trying to do? Are he going to usurp the throne?"

These people were furious.

In the last position, Tang Jie sat, and the old master was dark and didn't say anything.

Tang Jie is in poor health and has been sick for several months.

Ouyang Xiu suffered from diabetes and had faded out of the court and focused on his academic career.

Bao Zheng fainted once a few days ago due to overwork.

Their generation of old people have begun to wither.

Tang Jie could not resist the erosion of time. His eyebrows were white and his face was full of wrinkles, which could not hide his oldness. However, Tang Jie was of Jiang Gui's nature, and he became even more stingy. He was even more radical than when he was young.

He slapped the table and said angrily: "Building bridges and roads, digging canals to divert water, this is a good thing! Shouldn't it be done?"

Wang Gongchen said bluntly: "It should be done, but it shouldn't be done by Wang Ning'an! Mr. Tang, have you become Wang Ning'an's person?"

"What!"

Tang Jie suddenly stood up, pointed at Wang Gongchen, and angrily shouted: "I am not anyone else! I don't like Wang Ning'an! There are many things that you don't like! You put together, there are not as many bullet stamps as me as me! But as the magistrate, Your Majesty has entrusted us with important tasks, so you should really care about people's livelihood, interests and diseases, and just discuss things! You can't just say something to others or make trouble for others! I see that the Qingmiao Law this time is very good. In the past, the Royal Bank will pay for money and benefit the people. Isn't that great! I can't figure out why you object?"

Wang Gongchen was speechless when he was spoken.

Han Qi sighed, "Brother Zifang, you only know one thing but not the other."

Tang Jie said in a muffled voice: "I wish to hear high opinions!"

"That's right, the loans from Royal Bank are all paid by the people."

"It's a joke if you don't return it!" Tang Jie replied.

Han Qi is very arrogant and can only explain patiently at this moment.

"Brother Zifang, you need to be able to repay the money. Royal Bank borrowed the money. I heard that many places, those who are good at ease and are used to speculation, all jumped out and got a lot of loans. On the contrary, those gentry who are honest and well-off in farming and have family wealth were left aside."

"What's there? The gentry's family has money, and they don't need to borrow money!"

Tang Jie pondered for a moment and said loudly: "Grandpa Han, may you say that these people cannot borrow money? Royal Bank cut off their financial path, so they all jumped out and opposed it?"

Han Qi almost choked to death, thinking to himself, when did you become so smart? Did you even understand this?

"Grandpa Tang, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and scholars are the fundamentals of the imperial court. You won't even understand this, right? According to Wang Ning'an, the place has fallen into the hands of cunning merchants, and the world is not in chaos? We shoulder the foundation of our ancestors and the hope of the people, and we can never sit idly by."

Tang Jie opened his mouth and didn't say anything more.

Tang Jie was not convinced at this moment, but remembered a long night chat with Ouyang Xiu not long ago.

The two old friends were heart-warming and without any concealment.

Ouyang Xiu threw out all his thoughts.

He believed that there was no perfect three generations of rule, and the path he took now was likely to be fundamentally wrong... The court recruited scholars, valued literary talent, valued character, but not practical ability.

It is precisely because of the lack of professional and conscience that many laws that truly benefit the country and the people cannot be implemented. On the contrary, some people do selfish business under the banner of the people, which is really despised!

Ouyang Xiu scolded him from beginning to end. He told Tang Jie that he was focused on writing books and was responsible for teaching and educating people, hoping to completely reverse the trend of the Shilin people and correct the source. If he did not do it, the Song Dynasty would be destroyed! They had lost one opportunity and could never lose the second time!

Tang Jie was confused before his eyes. He thought of the Qingli New Policy. That's right, he was also a passionate young man back then. In order to reform, he waved flags and shouted and charged in the battle, wishing he could spread all his passion!

But over the years, he has also changed. He tried not to say many things he didn't like, but also learned to protect the interests of the scholar group... But today, Tang Jie felt more and more shameful!

It is obvious that a very good decree was deprecated to be worthless!

The people all agreed that the officials below could do their best!

But they are these noble men, the so-called great men who are both virtuous and capable, and who are expected by the scholars, are determined to abolish the Qingmiao Law.

Are you ashamed?

Tang Jie stood up, his eyes turned dark and he almost fainted. He reached out and grabbed the handrail, calming his mind.

"What do you think? Just do it. I'm sick for a long time and I can't accompany you!"

After saying that, Tang Jie swayed and left the Political Affairs Hall, giving the others a big back.

Jia Changchao, Wen Yanbo, Han Qi and others looked at each other, and were all unhappy. They had originally expected Tang Jie to go to fight against Wang Ning'an, and they just shook the flag and shouted.

Who knows, before the fire was opened, I had a breakup with them first. If Tang Jie wrote a letter and impeached them all, it would be a lot of fun!

Wen Yanbo hesitated and said, "Brother Ziming, do you think you still want to go to the official family?"

Jia Changchao grinned. People kept complaining to him these days, and they were talking about Qingmiao Fa. He was under great pressure, but he didn't have the courage to fight with Wang Ning'an.

"Or, wait..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch Su Gui came and bowed to all the husbands.
Chapter completed!
