Zhang Sheng was silent.
Looking at this contract, maybehe felt a little comfort in his heart.
After allthe ancients valued the most practical things.
For example, there is land at home, such as minerals at home.
A thousand shares is not much, but if there are indeed large veins of mineral veins in the Hexi Corridor, and they are all precious metals, then it will definitely not be a loss.
The land is gone and can be bought back. The Zhang family went from having land at home to having mines at home.
Buthe still felt unsure.
Because the earth is right in front of you, but the mine is far away.
Zhang Sheng stared at Fang Jifan: "Let's open the skylight and speak frankly. You also know about my son's situation. The Zhang family donated these lands. From now on, they will have to drink from the northwest wind. If this is the so-called dividend, it is useless." , Let¡¯s be honest, I plan to sell the house together.¡±
Speaking of this, Zhang Sheng felt very sad.
"Is this thing really profitable?"
If there is income, the Zhang family can still maintain it. If there is no income, how dare they live in this house?
Fang Jifan¡¯s eyes were clear and he smiled at Zhang Sheng: ¡°Whether there is any benefit depends not only on my hard work.¡±
"What do you mean?"
"My nephew and His Highness the Prince have racked their brains to dig out minerals. Once these minerals are excavated, it can be said to benefit the country and the people. I think Zhang Butang knows this better than me."
Zhang Sheng nodded thoughtfully.
Fang Jifan said: "So, whether this mine can be opened, first of all, the safety of Hexi must be ensured, and secondly, the people must be allowed to migrate to Hexi. Only with people can we have wealth, and with wealth can everyone make a fortune together. Now ¡Does Zhang Budang understand?¡±
Zhang Sheng suddenly realized why Fang Jifan was so kind. It turned out that it was for this.
Zhang Sheng said: "As you said, the opening of this mine will indeed be of great benefit to the country and the people, to you and to me, hey"
He shook his head: "Actually, you are right. A gentleman is about righteousness, and a villain is about benefit. I am not a gentleman. After all I have my own selfish motives." He couldn't help but sigh.
He understood the meaning.
Zhang Sheng said: "Since the Zhenguo government wants to open a mine in Hexi, someone must be there. The official document that wants to recruit refugees to Hexi will be issued by His Highness the Prince."
Fang Jifan nodded.
Zhang Sheng stroked his beard: "It's true, but it's very difficult to implement it. Although it's good at the top, it's effective at the bottom"
Fang Jifan continued: "There is another saying, it is said that there are policies from above and countermeasures from below."
"" Zhang Sheng looked at Fang Jifan: "I didn't expect that you actually know a little about local affairs. Yes, it is not easy to promote the decree. Do you know why local officials are most afraid of the migration of the people?"
Fang Jifan thought for a while: "If local officials want to gain a good reputation, they often have to look to the local gentry. Only with the support of the local gentry can they be considered good officials, and there are many gentry who are difficult to mess with."
Zhang Sheng nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's the truth. Therefore, even if there are official documents from the court or the town government, most local officials will be indifferent, and even covertly or covertly still prevent the refugees from leaving the customs. The reason for this is On the head of the gentry, the gentry lived on the land, and the land was in their hands. The larger the local population, the higher the income from renting out their land. But if all the young and strong people were gone, what would they think? If we want to rent this land for farming, we don¡¯t have enough manpower, so the income will be greatly reduced.¡±
Fang Jifan nodded: "I understand this too."
Zhang Sheng stared at Fang Jifan: "Why do you know everything?"
"It's just like a house. Only the population doesn't run away, and even increases. Whoever has more houses will make money. Whether you want to buy a house or rent a house, there are only so many houses. The more people there are, the more profit you will get." It¡¯s the people with many houses.¡±
Zhang Sheng smiled: "That's probably the case, so people are the key. If the population flows out and the gentry suffers, it will inevitably affect the local officials. For the sake of their good reputation in the eyes of the gentry, the local officials want to avoid making enemies. Naturally, the local gentry cannot offend the gentry."
Fang Jifan said: "What kind of gentry is this? He is obviously a local tycoon, he just changed his name."
Zhang Sheng blushed because his ancestor was also a 'local powerful'.
"So, don't rush into this matter. Come on, I will teach you some methods. First of all, the Zhenguo Mansion has issued an official document. It is best to go to your Majesty's place."Uncle Shi, you know so many things, especially how to deal with these powerful people and those that kind of stuff"
Zhang Sheng became so angry that he couldn't help but want to beat someone up: "Because before today, I was just those gentry and whatnot you wanted to scheme against"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Fang Jifan suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten. Sure enough, traitors are the most harmful, because a betrayer knows his original self best.
Fang Jifan actually forgot Zhang Sheng¡¯s origin and almost mistakenly thought that Zhang Sheng was a bourgeois gm who represented advanced productive forces.
"I understand, I understand, just do what Uncle Shi said. What Uncle Shi said really enlightened my nephew, and he suddenly understood the pros and cons."
