Just hearing the sound of "boom", the last battle came to an end, but Danmu hit Wanqiu on the chest with a hammer, sending Wanqiu flying backwards a foot away, and fell firmly to the ground. On a big rock.
??Wanqiu pointed at the red wood, blood surged from his mouth, and said, "Treachery"
Dan Mu said fiercely: "Fight against the Taoist sect and the Ming Dynasty, you will deserve to die!"
Wanqiu managed to raise a finger and pointed at Danmu. He wanted to open his mouth to argue, but he could only breathe out, unable to breathe in: "You are talking nonsense"
Danmu took out a sheepskin from his arms, placed it on Wanqiu's face, and shouted loudly: "Am I talking nonsense? This is the evidence of your rebellion! The thief actually wants to recruit me into his gang. Don't you know that I, Danmu, have always been loyal to the Taoist sect? I was just making excuses with you that day!"
Wanqiu was so angry that his eyes turned black, he immediately held his breath and died.
Danmu threw away the hammer in his hand, walked up to Qu Fenghe, and said with a flattering smile: "Master Quxian, we're done, the thief has been killed, thank you Master Xian for your help!"
In the White Horse Courtyard, Yuan Hao, the supervisor, Gu Tengfeng, the governor, Lei Shan, the cook, and Li Zhining, the new governor (formerly known as Zhike), were all beaming with joy. The three issues that had troubled Hongyuan for six years have now been settled. The hospital has more than 60,000 people in three departments, and the population under its rule has exceeded 130,000!
Zhao Ran looked at the danmu kneeling at his feet and felt very emotional for a moment. He thought that the bloodline really had its origin, and it was not groundless. Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice's children can dig holes. More than forty years ago, Danmu's father led the Dangxiang people into the mountains to eliminate the Chama tribe. Today, more than forty years later, Danmu inherited his father's legacy and introduced the Taoist sect into the mountains to eliminate the Chama tribe. It is indeed the same tradition.
"I originally thought that Mei Si of the Qionghe tribe was the most aware of current affairs. He was the first among the three tribes to surrender, cooperate with the Taoist sect, and abolish the backward tribal system. Therefore, I planned to give him the best preferential treatment, and I also gave him The best conditions. I didn¡¯t expect that you Dan Mu also had this determination and insight, and you also did an excellent job, making the first contribution to Hongyuan¡¯s eternal peace. Our Taoist sect does not hesitate to reward, and we treat Meisi preferentially. The same applies to you.¡±
Danmu was overjoyed. He decisively did such a big thing and gave the Chama Department to Baimayuan just for this treatment. Now with Zhao Ran's promise, he can ensure that his descendants will have enough food and clothing.
"Thank you, abbot! Danmu was shattered into pieces and cannot repay the abbot's great kindness. From now on, the abbot is my master and my father. Danmu plans to change his surname to Zhao, please give me a name from the abbot!"
Zhao Ran was a little bit dumbfounded. He had heard that these tribal leaders would change their surname to the strong at every turn. It seemed to be a custom. Danmu's father, Danzhu, changed his surname to Guo Li when the Dangxiang people ruled Hongyuan. Now Danmu I also made this request, but I didn¡¯t expect that it would be my turn.
After thinking about it, Zhao Ran decided to refuse: "It's against the rules. You can call yourself whatever you want. You don't have to change your surname after me. Even if you don't change your surname, as long as you abide by the rules of the Ming Dynasty and the laws of the White Horse Court, the White Horse Court will also look after you. , I won¡¯t let you suffer any loss.¡±
But Dan Mu had a determined look on his face: "The villain really admires the abbot and is impressed by the abbot's magnanimity. This is a private matter of the villain and has nothing to do with others or the Longbai Department. The villain has decided that from now on his surname will be Zhao. , if the abbot doesn¡¯t give me a name, I¡¯ll just call him Zhao Dan, with a passionate heart dedicated to the abbot.¡±
Zhao Ran tried to persuade him a few times, but he didn't listen. Zhao Ran had no choice but to let him do what he wanted.
Yuan Hao said: "Zhebo Mountain and Yanggong Mountain, how much property there is in these two mountains, all belong to him. Well, at least half of them belong to him. What a good life."
Zhao Ran said: "He sacrificed all his troops, so we can't be too stingy. Besides, this was an agreement before. Now that he has settled the matter, we can't break our promise, right? It's just two mountains, and the letter from the Taoist sect." No comparison is worth mentioning."
Looking at the set of knives in his hand, Zhao Ranfei Fu Dongfangli said: "Senior Brother Li, I found a set of magic weapons in the Chama Department. I wonder if it will be helpful to your investigation?"
After a long time, Dongfang Li replied: "I know, I'll go to Songfan later. I'm in Zhejiang right now and can't spare any time."
Zhao Ran was a little surprised. For such a big case, Dongfang Li actually said that he was unavailable for the time being and didn't know what he was busy with. But it was difficult to ask, so he had to give up.
After solving the three problems, the follow-up matters are still very arduous and cumbersome, such as registering for naturalization, allocating pastures, issuing charity loans, establishing Baojia settlements, organizing the supply of cattle and sheep farm tools, etc. It will take less than half a year to settle down. Yes, it can be expected that until the end of this year, the people in Baimayuan will be busy.
At the same time, Charity Fund Manager Li also came over to sound the alarm to Zhao Ran. So far, Charity Fund has handled a loan in Hongyuan.There were more than 10,000 loans, totaling 130,000 taels of silver. However, after the Longbai and Chama tribesmen came down from the mountain, they could not cope with less than 100,000 taels.
In Long'an Mansion, the total loan amount of charity funds has been maintained at around 100,000 taels all year round. With the wealth of charity funds, it is beyond the power to spend more than 300,000 taels of silver.
As a last resort, Zhao Ran could only add an additional 50,000 taels of silver to make up for the shortage of stubs. Fortunately, this was Zhao Ran's own "sole proprietorship" industry and he did not carry out large-scale savings business. Otherwise, when the depositors heard the news, they would be If there is a trend of bank runs, charity funds will not be able to continue.
Taking advantage of the craze for "liberating the slaves" in Hongyuan, Zhao Ran held two large-scale fasting festivals in Baima Yuan and Xiaojie Temple in June.
On June 6th, the day when Nandou Xingjun descended, the Nandou Xingshou Lantern Ceremony was held in the Xiaojie Temple. On June 19th, the day when Master Cihang became enlightened, a more solemn invitation ceremony was held in Baima Yuan.
The holding of the two rituals gathered many tribal believers, and at the same time allowed more tribesmen to understand the efficacy and magic of Taoist rituals. Of course, it is a long-term process for people to truly convert, but with a large base of believers, Zhao Ran believes that Hongyuan's credibility will jump to a higher level every year.
As the top abbot of a place, Zhao Ran needs to steer the ship and steer the ship in Hongyuan. What is helming? In other words, there is a clear long-, medium- and short-term plan. What goals should be achieved within three years, what goals should be achieved within one year, what goals should be achieved within six months, and what goals should be achieved within three months? You must have a clear understanding and follow the set goals. Goals, mobilize human and financial resources to achieve them, and focus energy on these goals. This is steering, otherwise you will be trapped in endless routine work.
The short-term goal of Zhao Ran¡¯s plan in Baimayuan is to solve the problem of farmland and pasture. He has completed this goal in the first half of the year.
The mid-term goal is to form a virtuous cycle of substantial growth in Hongyuan's credibility, reaching a higher level every year. He achieved this goal within two years.
The long-term goal is to solve the problem of the three tribes. Once this problem is solved, his term as abbot will be considered complete. The next six months will be to consolidate this goal, that is, to resettle the tribesmen who have come down the mountain and let them gradually live a normal life. , providing credibility to Taoism.
Therefore, the next six months were Zhao Ran's period of "ruling by inaction" as the abbot, leaving administrative work to Yuan Hao and other subordinates of the Supervisory Academy. He tried not to give orders or point fingers, and tried to avoid interference with administrative work.
Zhao Ran remembered that Qu Fenghe had mentioned his qualified younger brother. After thinking about it, he decided to go to the Qu family in Guyang County to investigate this disciple.
