"It is really a helpless move to borrow money from large households. If there is no other way out, how can ordinary people borrow loan sharks at usury?" In fact, 90% of the people who borrowed usury were farmers with their own farmland. They used their land as collateral to borrow money from large households. In the end, they were unable to repay the land. The land was occupied by large households, and they became tenant farmers, or directly sold themselves to become farmers. A servant of a wealthy family. It can be said that usury was one of the important factors causing land annexation in this era.
Does the court have a solution to this? The answer is yes! The solution is the green crop warehouses set up by local governments. But the problem now is that, whether due to natural disasters or man-made disasters, when farmers have difficulties and apply for green crop loans from the government, it is always difficult to get what they want. Either they get a very small amount, which cannot solve the actual problem, or they simply delay it. , Far water cannot quench near thirst.
This is what Zhao Ran wants to do, to see if it is possible to solve the shortcomings of the payment of young crops money, not only in Long'an Mansion, but at least in Guyang County, to put an end to this situation.
If this thing is done, it will definitely be a good deed that will benefit tens of thousands of farmers in Guyang County. Zhao Ran seems to have seen the bright future of explosive growth in the power of merit in his own Qi sea!
Zhao Ran invited Guanshi Li into the public room of Charity Hall, and then kept tinkering with money from his arms. In a short time, the table in the public office was filled with white silver ingots, and Guanshi Li was stunned. It's all straight¡ª¡ªit's not just that Zhao Ran has money, but the way he looks penniless but keeps taking out money is so cool. Manager Li has never seen this before, and he respects Zhao Ran like a god from now on.
Showing such a hand can be regarded as strengthening Manager Li's confidence in continuing to do a good job in Charity Hall, otherwise he would not be able to find a suitable candidate who is both educated and ideal and who is also one of his own.
After discussing the many details of establishing the charity fund with Manager Li, Zhao Ran hurried back to Wuji Mountain without stopping.
Song Zhiyuan, the Prison Warder, is handling official documents in the Prison Ward. Ever since he became the Prison Warder, he has fallen in love with this simple and elegant courtyard. He almost never wants to return home. He rarely returns to the luxurious manor that his family bought at the foot of the mountain. After seeing Zhao Ran, he cordially called Zhao Ran in: "Junior brother Zhao, why are you here? Sit down first. After I finish processing these official documents, senior brother, we can talk."
Zhao Ran came to this prison many times. He was just as casual and unceremonious as visiting his own square hall. He made a cup of tea by himself and refilled Song Zhiyuan's teacup with water. While drinking tea, he looked at Song Zhiyuan's collection. Various gadgets on the pineapple shelf.
After Song Zhiyuan finished processing several official documents on the case, he called Zhao Ran to sit down. Zhao Ran saw the smile that could not be suppressed on Song Zhiyuan's face and couldn't help but ask: "Why is Brother Supervisor laughing? Is there some happy event?"
Song Zhiyuan leaned back in his chair, laughing and shaking his head: "There is no happy event, I just read an interesting story."
"Oh? I would like to hear the details."
"It's not a big deal" Song Zhiyuan pointed to an official document on the case and said: "The old teacher of the county school ordered him to become an official, and the seat was vacant. Kong County Zun reported a candidate to be appointed as deputy envoy of the school, but it was Familiar."
After the county's unsatisfactory official, after the nomination of the county, if unexpectedly, the adults of the scholarship will generally approve the consent, and then the teaching will take office. Of course, the matter involves a county's education, and the most important link is that the county's recommendation must first be reported to the Taoist Academy for review. Only after the Taoist Academy has no objection can it be reported to the province.
So Song Zhiyuan explained: "This person's name is Zhang Mengchun. Senior brother, I had not entered Taoism when I was young, and I was studying in a private school at that time. This Zhang Mengchun is greedy and greedy, and I can't stand it, senior brother. In addition to normal tying and etiquette, He never offered any money, so Meng Chun always punished me in publicI heard that he has been making no progress since he was selected as a scholar. I didn't expect to get news about him today."
Oh, I see, Zhao Ran understood. Regardless of whether it was the reason Song Zhiyuan said, in short, this teacher Zhang left a deep imprint on Song Zhiyuan's young mind. He did not expect retribution to come now. The smile on the face of the Song Dynasty Supervisor was definitely not a funny "smile", but a mocking "smile". It stands to reason that a veteran like Song Zhiyuan would not talk about such things easily, but the joy of getting his "big revenge" was avenged. He couldn't help but share it with others, or show off with him. Zhao Ran, who has a deep relationship, is naturally the best listener.
Zhao Ran quickly joined in the fun: "In this case, this Zhang Xiucai has a poor character and it is difficult for him to be a good example to others. Senior Brother Zhao must pay attention to it and must not abandon his official career for personal reasons because of old feelings."
Song Zhiyuan was very satisfied, nodded and said: "In addition, when Zhang Mengchun was teaching, he focused on Confucianism, but he was not interested in my Taoist sect.The classics are rarely touched upon, and there seems to be criticism. Therefore, I should reject the county government and propose another proposal. "
?? Confucianism is the political thought of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, some of its content has been revised by Taoism. What should Zhang Xiucai teach if he does not talk about Confucianism? But when Song Zhiyuan said this, he was charged with an unfounded crime, so Zhang Xiucai was finished. The causes that were sown unintentionally decades ago will reap the fruits decades later. It is truly a cycle of cause and effect, and God will not deceive me!
Two people decide the life of a certain scholar with a few words, and then start talking about the next thing very nonchalantly.
"Junior Brother Zhao, I have an official document here that needs you to handle." After saying that, Song Zhiyuan handed the official document to Zhao Ran.
Zhao Ran opened it and saw that it was also transferred from the county government, but it was an application for handling a case. There was a wealthy man named Zong Weiwu who set up a Taoist altar in his manor and preached the new meaning of the Three Pure Taoist Patriarchs, saying that endless catastrophes would occur and the universe would be destroyed. This person also claimed that he was a disciple of Lu Xianzuo, who came down to earth to save the world. Only by believing in him can the world survive the disaster safely. The county government has received concrete information and is preparing to search for it in the near future. It has asked the Wuji Academy to send relevant personnel to take charge of the matter.
Zhao Ran couldn't help but smile after seeing this. This Zong Weiwu was so obsessed that he was really seeking his own death. This kind of case is handled by the Fangtang, which is Zhao Ran's job. It's just that he hasn't encountered one in three to five years. He didn't expect that he would run into it just after he became the head of the party.
After Song Zhiyuan finished talking about official matters, he gave Zhao Ran a few more words, and then asked: "Junior brother Zhao is here, what's the matter?"
Zhao Ran then told what happened today when the Pingwu County police officers broke into the charity hall to arrest people. Of course, the people who were angered and beat the police officers were not concealed either. After finishing speaking, Zhao Ran asked: "Brother from the Supervisory Academy, did Senior Brother know in advance that Pingwu County officers crossed the border to take people? Is there any official document from Zhongyang Academy informing our Wuji Academy?"
Song Zhiyuan shook his head and frowned. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Junior Brother Zhao, have you offended anyone?"
Zhao Ran said with a bitter face: "After much thought, it seems that only Du, the abbot of Xizhenwu Palace, can do it."
Song Zhiyuan comforted him: "If he takes action, it is somewhat possible, but don't be afraid. I have already inquired about it. This Du Neng is an outsider, does not understand the rules, and is unpopular in Xizhenwu Palace. Zhang Jianyuan is not interested in him. He was also very dissatisfied, he wanted to cause trouble, but Zhang Jianyuan was the first one not to agree."
After hearing Song Zhiyuan's comfort, Zhao Ran felt slightly relieved, and then asked: "Brother from the Supervisory Academy, what kind of background is the new Zhao Zhixing?"
Song Zhiyuan asked curiously: "Do you think he is suspicious? No way, this person came to Wujiyuan to experience, there is no need to embarrass you." After thinking about it, he still shook his head and said: "I heard that he was abandoned in Xuanxuan. The orphan outside Yuanyuan Temple was adopted by a layman who was a fire worker in the temple. He grew up in Xuanyuan Temple since he was a child. Later, because of his talent and intelligence and his ability to read scriptures well, he was granted an ultimatum as an exception. Perhaps because of his birth background. , he has always been self-effacing and rarely interacts with outsiders, and he will not have any conflicts with you. I think you should not be suspicious. "
??Well, Zhao Ran hopes that he is overthinking. Following what he just said, he mentioned the matter of Qingmiao Cang.
"Brother from the Supervisory Hospital, I have set up a charity fund, and I plan to invest a thousand taels, specifically to help poor people who have borrowed money and are unable to repay" Zhao Ran explained in detail how he set up the charity fund, and asked: "Brother, what do you think? , is that good?"
"It's very good. Junior brother is merciful. This is a good deed."
"Senior brother, I think this is not a long-term solution. Well, I don't know what the details are about the green seedling warehouse. Can you clarify my doubts for me?"
Song Zhiyuan was startled, hesitated for a moment and said, "Some things are better not to be taken too seriously."
