"So, there are still sensible people in the court." Zhao Hao smiled and gave Hai Rui more tea.
"Aren't you the one causing trouble behind my back?" Hai Rui understood very well. Xu Jie was treated so badly by him. Although he deserved it, the Ming Dynasty was very considerate of his heart and not his deeds.
Even if the evidence is conclusive, the government and the public cannot directly complain about Mr. Xu Ge, but they can accuse Hai Rui of being ungrateful and disrespectful for sneaking a surprise attack on a sixty-seven-year-old man. In addition, he offended too many people by clearing the lawsuit and clearing his father-in-law's land. There are indeed countless people who want him to get out.
"How can I have that ability?" Zhao Hao quickly clarified: "In this three-acre land in the south of the Yangtze River, we still have to rely on the Zhongcheng to protect us. Can I in turn protect the Zhongcheng? Isn't that a M?bius strip? "
"What the hell is that?" Hai Rui was used to it, so he was stunned for a moment and then said indifferently: "It's really not you?"
"That's not true." Zhao Hao nodded. Of course, he couldn't let Hai Rui know that he had made a dirty deal with Gao Gong.
"Okay, just pretend it's not you." Hai Rui looked at him deeply, stopped dwelling on the issue and said, "But no matter what, I can only serve for one full term at most, which is less than two years. In these two years If they can be honest here, once I leave, I'm afraid their true colors will be revealed again."
"Alas, treating the symptoms but not the root cause is ultimately in vain." Hai Rui said sadly: "If you want to prevent people from taking political risks, it depends on the people. Unfortunately, I, as the governor, cannot change everyone - Especially those clerks who have been handed down from generation to generation, they are like mosquitoes and flies, they hide in winter and come out to suck blood and eat shit when the temperature returns the next year.¡±
"Ahem" Zhao Hao almost choked, and helplessly took out his handkerchief to wipe his mouth and said: "This is indeed a problem. Our group is also worried that the biggest risk in the future lies in the attitude of the government."
"You really need to think about it sooner." Hai Rui nodded. This was exactly what he wanted to tell Zhao Hao. "The things you did in Jiangnan, to be honest, were good or bad, but they were too exaggerated. I was lucky enough to meet Lin Zhongcheng and me. They turned a blind eye and let you do whatever they wanted. What about a new governor who doesn't agree with your behavior in the future?" When you feel uncomfortable."
"Yeah." Zhao Hao nodded, thinking that he could only fast forward to the next one. Of course, these words would never be uttered.
"Besides, your method of using interests to bind officials and gentry has its own problems." Hai Rui said to Zhao Hao seriously: "First of all, it can only be used in Jiangnan, because this is a land of plenty. As long as you straighten out the relationship, there will always be enough Benefit distribution. But what about other places? In places where one acre of land only produces five, six, or seven or eight dou, can your development company make money? How do you distribute it? How do you satisfy everyone? "
"Yes." Zhao Hao nodded convinced and said: "Zhong Cheng saw it very accurately. This kind of development model of 'projects for land' can only be carried out in the Jiangnan area. If you try it elsewhere, you will be blind."
Before the rise of modern agriculture, farmland yields depended entirely on land and climate conditions. With good conditions, the yield per mu could be five or six times higher than in places with poor conditions. Otherwise, Suzhou would not account for one-eighth of the country's tax revenue.
This is also the reason why Zhao Hao is determined not to set up a development company outside the ten prefectures in Jiangnan. How to do a losing business?
"If you can't generalize, there will be a big problem - the gap between the rich and the poor in Jiangnan and other places will further widen." Hai Rui said with a stern face: "Jiangnan will become a magnet, strongly attracting all provinces The refugees are coming in droves! What will we do then?¡±
"This is a good thing. Population is productivity." Zhao Hao smiled carelessly. Before Hai Rui got angry, he quickly changed his words and said, "This is not what I said. It was your idol who said it in "University" It¡¯s said in Yanyi Supplement.¡±
"You" Hai Rui was furious, glared at him and said, "Even if it is a good thing in the short term, if so many refugees come in in the long term, there will definitely be trouble!"
"I want as many refugees as I want. If Jiangnan can't support them, I will find a place overseas to resettle them." Zhao Hao also became serious and said categorically: "Zhongcheng is right, I want to turn Jiangnan into a magnet, attracting more and more refugees." The better the people are!¡±
"What do you mean?" Hai Rui frowned.
Zhao Hao let out a long sigh and said, "Zhongcheng, remember I told you that the Little Ice Age is coming!"
"Are you talking about the extreme cold that lasts for hundreds of years?" Hai Rui said with a serious expression.
"Yeah." Zhao Hao nodded heavily.
??~~
The two of them have been together for many years They have had countless verbal exchanges with each other, from Beijing to Nanjing.
That was back in Beijing. When the two were discussing the reasons for the change of dynasties, Zhao Hao told Hai Rui that many times the great turmoil that led to the collapse of rule was not entirely caused by the failure of official governance, but was closely related to the Little Glacier Cycle.
Since Xia and Shang Dynasties, things have happenedIn Beijing, the North Canal's ice period was only three months a year, but now it basically freezes for four months"
Hai Rui nodded. People of his age naturally feel the same way. Asked Zhao Hao a sharp question: "The Han and Tang Dynasties were unable to overcome the difficulties. Do you think you can lead the Ming Dynasty to overcome them?"
"Do your best and obey fate." Zhao Hao smiled lightly and said, "At least I can come up with a solution, right?"
"Move the people from the north to overseas?" Hai Rui sneered. He had been arguing with Zhao Hao for a long time, and naturally he knew that this guy had been advocating that there was ten times more fertile land overseas than the Ming Dynasty. , you must take the blame!
"This is just one of them." Zhao Hao raised three fingers and said word by word: "The promotion of drought-resistant and high-yielding crops, large-scale immigration to the south, and the reduction of vassals. These are the three axes of my master. Very simple, right?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
