Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 888 Golden Ideas

It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

Fang Jun just pondered for a while, and then said: "Benhou can ask the Royal Bank to provide a loan for the people of Guixian County, settle at the lowest interest rate, and then order a batch of new fishing boats from Benhou's Jiangnan Shipyard. But there is one requirement, The county magistrate Sun will use your county's financial revenue as a guarantee, and if the people default or are unable to repay, the financial revenue of your county will repay the debt."

Funding hundreds of small fishing boats in a poor county is not difficult for Fang Jun's financial resources.But he didn't want to be so direct. Rich people can and must do good deeds, but they must have a limit. If they do too many good deeds, they will become a handle and a stain, especially in ancient times when the monarchy was supreme.

The human heart is a very important thing, for the emperor, it is extremely sensitive...

That being the case, why not experiment with a model based on this matter, a new poverty alleviation model in which the royal bank lends, the county government guarantees, and the people benefit, similar to the "green crop method" of the Song Dynasty.

The county government collects taxes instead of the state, and part of it will be withheld when the taxes are paid. This is the funding of the county government at the first level, and it is fiscal revenue. The state will not give other financial allocations to the county.

There is a guarantee from the county government, which can avoid disputes between the people and the bank.Of course, there will also be illegal income such as extra remuneration for the county government to raise interest rates, but in terms of the income of most people, the advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

The benefits of the "Youth Law" are unquestionable, but he gave the county government a similar mandatory "number" limit, which in disguise turned a good policy into a means for the local tyrants and evil gentry to exploit the people.

Fang Jun was an official in his previous life, so he understands the helplessness and meaning of the phrase "there is never a perfect policy" best.

No matter how good the policy is, there will be disadvantages of one kind or another, and there will be bad people who seek profit from it.It is a good policy if the advantages outweigh the disadvantages during the implementation of a policy. You cannot seize the shortcomings just because of some flaws and attack and annihilate them indefinitely...

Reform is always accompanied by labor pains, both ancient and modern.

Sun Chengen was taken aback for a moment, then ecstatically, but still asked cautiously: "Dare to ask Lord Hou, what is the amount of this loan...?"

"Theoretically, it can be unlimited. But one principle must be followed, that is, voluntariness. In this matter, the role of the county government is to bridge the gap and provide guarantees, but it has no benefits and is not allowed to have benefits. You can clear?"

The county government has no income, but it has political points. The state government can see it, the governor can see it, and the emperor can see it.If the county government has profits, it means that the people have been exploited from it, which is a serious crime.

Sun Chengen was so excited that he stood up and did not perform the official etiquette. Instead, he bowed deeply and said in admiration: "I have heard that Lord Hou has the talent of heaven, and he can come up with a benefit in such a short period of time. I sincerely admire Yu Wanmin's good method. But what I admire even more is Hou Ye's dedication to the welfare of the people, please be respected by Sun!"

Yi Yi to the ground.

Fang Jun hurriedly got up and pulled Sun Chengen up. He also admired this official who can ignore his own political achievements and seek for the real welfare of the people, and said with a smile: "Not only that, this Marquis also has a sharp weapon for fishing , County Magistrate Sun, please wait a moment, Ben Hou will draw out the drawings, and you can ask the craftsmen of my Fangjia iron factory to help make a batch."

Fang Jun's knowledge of things, his strange skills and ingenuity are unrivaled in the world, even the most ignorant people will have heard of it, Sun Chengen was surprised and delighted: "How can you be a lower official, the Marquis loves you so much!"

"It's not for you, it's for the people. I hope fishermen all over the world will benefit from this thing."

Fang Jun said, and ordered someone to bring a pen and ink, and write and draw immediately.

The drawing looks messy and complicated, but to put it bluntly, it is a netting machine composed of a pulley block.Several sets of pulleys and several gears form a device similar to the winch that opens the drawbridge of the city gate. One person can easily turn the winch to drag fishing nets weighing several hundred catties onto the boat.

The reason why the current fishing industry is so backward is the simplicity of the fishing boats, but the bigger reason is the backwardness of the nets.Fang Jun, a light and tough chemical material like nylon, can't make it, so he has to rely on fishing nets made of hemp rope, but the strength of this kind of fishing net is not bad. The biggest disadvantage is that the weight increases after being wet. Even a dozen strong men may not be able to catch the fish...

As long as there is this net pulling machine, small-scale fishing operations for each family can be easily done.Guarding the natural cornucopia of "Lusi Bathing Beach", if the people in Rudong County can't get enough to eat, Fang Jun may consider leading an army to kill them all. It's so stupid, or it's a waste of food...

Several people came together to see it, which felt very novel.

Liu Renyuan rubbed his chin and asked in doubt: "This thing...why does it look like a winch on the city gate?"

Xue Rengui also nodded and said: "It's really similar, but there are a few slightly different things, but it's basically the same thing."

Sun Chengen is obviously also a person with strong comprehension ability. Looking at it, he suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted: "Wizard! Master Hou is really a genius! This thing is just like what the two generals said. With a winch, two soldiers guarding the city can lift a suspension bridge weighing a thousand catties by turning the winch, let alone a fishing net that weighs only a few hundred catties?"

Fang Jun was somewhat modest: "That's right, this thing is improved from the winch of the suspension bridge, with only a few minor changes, it is more suitable for use on fishing boats. Therefore, the praise of 'Wizard' in your mouth, This Marquis is ashamed and dare not take it for granted, this is the creation of the predecessors, and this Marquis is just picking up the wisdom of others."

On the steamships of later generations, the net puller driven by the motor can pull tens of thousands of kilograms of fishing nets onto the ship. Now, if the capstan is turned by manpower, it can be said that as long as it is within the bearing force of the fishing net, there is no problem at all.

Hearing Fang Jun's self-effacement, Sun admitted that Su Rong shook his head and said: "Master Hou's words are wrong. The winch was invented by our ancestors for many years. Countless people have seen and used it, but who would have thought about it?" It can be transplanted to a fishing boat, and it can easily be lifted by a single person with hundreds of catties of fishing nets? Hou Ye has a quick mind, and there is no second person in the world!"

He not only admired Fang Jun's intelligence, but also admired Fang Jun's heart!
As a first-class noble family in the Tang Dynasty, he was promoted to the Marquis at a young age by virtue of his talent, he was granted the title of chief officer of the Canghai Road Marching, and he is also the son-in-law of the emperor. Who else in the world can be more noble and beautiful than Fang Jun future?

But it is such a low-ranking and high-ranking son of honor, when facing himself as a small seventh-rank county magistrate, he didn't treat him in the slightest or disdain him. He made excessive requests. Instead of being patient, he pointed out two clever strategies in succession.

Talent can be learned, but this kind of heart for the well-being of the people cannot be learned!

Liu Renyuan looked at Sun Chengen, who was flushed with excitement, and said in surprise: "Someone thought that the county magistrate Sun was just an upright person, an upright official who worked for the people, but he didn't know that his ability to flatter and flatter is not weak at all, disrespectful and disrespectful." .”

Sun Chengen rolled his eyes and turned back without hesitation: "How dare you take this general's compliment? Every word of this officer is sincere and sincere. How could there be any flattery? If the general thinks that this officer's words are wrong, please point out."

Liu Renyuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "My good fellow, this mouth is sharper than a knife, even if there is one, do you dare to say it? Haha, it's amazing!"

What a joke, saying that what Sun Chengen said was wrong, wouldn't it mean that Fang Jun did not do a good enough job and should not be praised?

This person is articulate and quick-witted, it's really hard to imagine that this age is just a county magistrate from the seventh rank, but I think this is also related to his background from a poor family.No background, no family background, just relying on talent and a heart for the people, it is not easy to get promoted.

The reason why the aristocratic family needs to be eliminated does not mean that the aristocratic family has no talents, but it naturally monopolizes the power class and blocks the way for too many talents to advance.

　The tickets for the past few days are very good. It’s the end of the month. I hope everyone will continue to work hard and encourage a lot. The younger brother will never be lazy, and work hard to repay everyone’s friendship!
