Song Zhiyuan thought carefully about Zhao Ran's answer for a long time, and then asked two questions. First, will the benefits obtained by Wujiyuan and Guyang County Government from the loan of Qingmiao money be reduced as a result? Secondly, the wealthy gentry and large households have always provided support for the government to govern the local area. How to convince Kong County Zun to give up the wealthy gentry and choose you, Zhao Ran? Third, Zhao Ran, are you mentally prepared to face the possibility of an attack by the wealthy gentry?
For the first question, Zhao Ran answered decisively: It will never be reduced! The answer to the second question is that there is no need for Mr. Kong to give up the wealthy gentry. All that is needed is to ask Mr. Kong to agree and let Zhao Ran participate. As for the third question, Zhao Ran said that he was mentally prepared for this, but in order to prevent farmers from being displaced, he would rather bear such risks.
Song Zhiyuan was speechless when he saw Zhao Ran's crisp and clear answer, which seemed to have been carefully considered. He didn't know what happened to the junior brother in front of him who always behaved very cleverly. Why did he do such a thankless thing? Well, strictly speaking, it¡¯s not that I¡¯m not trying to please the farmers. I¡¯m trying to please the farmers, but what¡¯s the point of trying to please them? Is this junior brother really a very compassionate person? But according to this junior brother's past behavior style, it really doesn't look like it!
In the end, Song Zhiyuan decided to give limited support to the matter for the sake of Zhao Ran. The so-called limited support actually meant turning a blind eye. Zhao Ran can do whatever he wants. As long as you can ensure that the annual tribute of the Taoist priests in the courtyard is not reduced, I will acquiesce to your approach. However, despite Zhao Ran's persistent pursuit, Song Zhiyuan still gave him something more - a private letter addressed to Mr. Kong. This letter would be forwarded by Zhao Ran to Mr. Kong. This was also the first time Zhao Ran went to see Kong openly. The basis of the county respect.
Zhao Ran is now a figure at the level of the eight deacons of Wujiyuan. Although this status is not on an equal footing with Kong Xianzun, he has enough weight to be treated with courtesy by Kong Xianzun when he pays homage.
Someone had already informed Mr. Kong that the charity hall run by Zhao Ran was raided by Pingwu County officials. Mr. Kong guessed that Zhao Ran came here to talk about this matter, so he was prepared. After Zhao Ran reported the matter, Kong County Zun gave him some comfort and told Zhao Ran that although Pingwu County had transferred the documents related to the arrest, he did not expect that they would dare to go to Wujiyuan to arrest them. , he has already written a letter to the newly appointed Magistrate Dong of Pingwu County about this matter. He also admitted that although what he said in the letter was not meant to blame, it was a reminder and he believed that this kind of thing would not happen again in the future.
The parents in a county personally explained and comforted Zhao Ran, and their gesture was enough. Zhao Ran was not a ungrateful person, so he immediately expressed his gratitude. When the guests and hosts were chatting happily, he finally mentioned the reason for his visit.
"Do you want to join the list of Qingmiaoqian refinancing?" Kong County Zun asked very puzzledly.
"Exactly, this is a letter from the Song Supervisor to the county magistrate. Please read it." Zhao Ran took out Song Zhiyuan's letter and handed it over respectfully.
County Honorable Kong took it and read it quickly, then closed his eyes and said nothing. Zhao Ran knew that the matter involved a lot, so he did not rush it and gave County Magistrate Kong enough time to think.
After a long time, County Magistrate Kong opened his eyes and said: "Zhao Fangzhu, I already understand the meaning of Song Supervisor Yuan, and I will do my best within my ability. However, I don't know what Fangzhu Zhao's plan is to intervene in the re-loan of Qingmiao's money? Can you tell me your true meaning?"
Zhao Ran¡¯s true intention is of course to cultivate a large amount of merit power so that he can enter the realm of a Taoist priest as soon as possible, but this meaning cannot be said out loud. On the way here, Zhao Ran carefully considered how to answer this question. After much deliberation, he could only talk about the common people. Of course, he could also talk about the character issues in his own practice. I hope Kong County Master can be more or less understanding after getting involved in this matter.
"I wonder if the county magistrate has ever heard that Pindao went to Baima Mountain last year. Later, I was given the Taoist holy medicine Sangu Dan, and I participated in the ascension ceremony hosted by the Great Refiner of Yuhuang Pavilion."
Zhao Ran still used the same old method. If he had anything to do, he would first cover himself with a tiger skin coat before talking about it. Sure enough, when County Magistrate Kong heard the keywords "Jade Emperor Pavilion", "Taoist Holy Medicine Sangu Dan" and "Yuan Da Master Refiner", his initially divergent eyes were immediately attracted.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? I am tied up with the general affairs, but I have never heard of it. It turns out that Fangzhu Zhao can win the favor of the immortal masters in the pavilion. It is really a good opportunity! After I heard that I was persuaded by the Sangu Dan, With the qualifications and foundation to practice Taoism, from now on you can learn the immortal skills of heaven and earth"
Zhao Ran sighed: "Senior brother Pindao Yu Zhiyuan, I wonder if the county magistrate is familiar with him? Senior brother Yu has a close relationship with Pindao, and he attended the Shengmen Dharma Altar with Pindao. He is extremely blessed and has straightened his bones. Now he is worshiping. Under the Yuanda Refiner's seat."
County Magistrate Kong said "Ah!" with envy on his face: "Yu Zhike actually entered the immortal way? No wonder, thinking about it carefully, I haven¡¯t seen it in recent years I wonder what Fangzhu Zhao is doing? "
Zhao Ran shook his head: "Pindao had not been able to straighten the bones that day. Master Yuanda said that it is not possible to straighten the bones on the spot, but there is also a chance to show up slowly. Since this year, Pindao seems to have felt something, I just feel that I have made some progress in my practice. Later, I was taught by two masters, Zhuo Tengyun and Zhuo Tengyi, who are walking in the Taoist sect of Huayun Hall, and I was given Xuan Kung by the two masters"
Keywords such as "Huayun Pavilion", "Taomen Walk", "Two Masters Uncle", "Giving Xuan Gong" and so on were once again keenly captured by County Magistrate Kong. The magistrate immediately stood in awe, raised his hands to Zhao Ran and said : "Congratulations to Master Zhao Fang for entering the immortal realm!"
Zhao Ran smiled and waved his hand: "Thank you, Lord County. However, Pindao's practice attaches great importance to the mind. An expert once pointed out that Pindao must do more good deeds and accumulate more merits, otherwise there will be a bottleneck in practice."
County Magistrate Kong suddenly realized: "So, this year, I have often heard that Master Fang was renovating people's residences and taking care of poor farmers in the county. It was actually related to Master Fang's practice. I thought this must be the case when he came to Charity Hall? Master Fang is relieved, I am. If the official association repairs Pingwu County again, it will not cause the Charity Hall to suffer any further setbacks."
Zhao Ran said: "Thank you so much, Lord. Pindao said just now that he wanted to interfere with Qingmiao Money, but that was actually his original intention. Qingmiao Money has become a bad government, and the entanglements involved are not mentioned by Pindao, but the County Lord is also aware of it." The common people often have their families broken up and their families killed, and the situation is unspeakably miserable. If this continues, and the land is in the hands of the gentry, and the common people have nothing to cultivate, it will inevitably lead to great disasters. The poor man cannot bear to see this, so he wants to intervene in it to do everything possible. With my little effort, I hope the county magistrate will take notice."
