Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 334

For Zong Ze, he has given up on the affairs of the court and just wants to tell his old man to return to his hometown, so it doesn't matter if Sun Xinzao doesn't rebel now.

He naturally knew that Sun Xin was not as vulgar and uneducated as Zhao Wangso in front of him thought. On the contrary, he had been observing how Sun Xin ran the Dengzhou Supervisory Committee this year. The more he understood, the more surprised he was. Frankly speaking In his heart, he had already determined that Sun Xin was definitely the leader of the future rebellion, and if the situation changed, he would be regarded as a monster.

But to be honest, he liked Sun Xin a lot before, at least the people in Dengzhou under this guy are really happy, everyone has a career, and all businesses are prosperous.

Zong Ze had no way to deal with someone as powerful as Sun Xin, and he had no intention of intervening in this matter when he was about to retire.

After Sun Xin established the Protection Party, all this changed.

Seeing that Sun Xin used lightning methods to rectify the big landlords in the Supervisory Committee and established a party that he said was unambiguous, Zong Ze felt more and more that he and Sun Xin had different ideas.

Zong Ze believed that the ideal way for the world should be for the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats to share the world, but Sun Xin went to the next level. What he wanted to unite was not the landlords who could be called the scholar-bureaucrats, but the rich peasants and businessmen who only had small industries. It is the lowest level of the people.

This difference may seem small at the moment, but it is frightening in the long run.

Zongze has a long-term vision. He can see that with the development of Sun Xin's supervisory committee, their factories will slowly disappear and disintegrate those big landlords who have cultivated and studied their families. The living space of a set of scholar-bureaucrat class and Confucian scholars in the system will also disappear.

Don't you see the voices of scholars in today's Supervisory Committee?

In a society without Confucian scholars, Zong Ze feels fear in his heart when he thinks about it.

Scholars pay attention to the continuation of life and death, but no one mentions it in Sun Xin's Dengzhou to the sage.

And what scares him even more is that it is such a place that no one mentions about going to the Holy Juxue, and the people's lives are getting better and better!

What does this mean?Could it be that the Confucian set of things is completely useless?Even if Confucian scholars are not used to govern the country, can the country be peaceful and peaceful, and the people happy?

The more I thought about Zongze, the more frightened I felt.

After seeing this layer, his nature and experience made him think that such an organization should not continue to exist.

He didn't want Sun Xin to die, but he wanted to try to change Sun Xin's behavior. If Sun Xin could disband the Mutual Insurance Party, then everything would be fine.

Zhao Wang, who was in front of him, was still talking endlessly about Sun Xin's mistakes, and there was almost nothing right in what he said, but Zong Ze smiled at him.

"Zhao Wang, what you said is reasonable. Now that the imperial court is employing people, the people of Dengzhou are rich and have produced many heroes. I am thinking of recruiting some people to award the rank. join hands."

Zhao Wang's eyes became brighter as he heard this. Before this Dengzhou, their family was just a rich landlord. They worked together with Sun Xin in the factory for two years before they rose rapidly, but they have always lacked recognition in the officialdom.

Zhao De has been reluctant to contact the Yamen in Dengzhou for a long time, and he just thinks that it is enough to curry favor with the Supervisory Council on the ten-mile card, because his contempt for the relationship with the Yamen has made Zhao Wang useless. This time, the Zhao family was forced to give up a large part of the factory shares. On the other hand, Zong Ze actually said that he was willing to let the Zhao family get official protection in Dengzhou. Wouldn't this increase his status in the family? increase?
After Sun Xin returned to Shili Pai, he was still thinking about the way Zong Ze walked away when he was talking to him. He could realize that Zong Ze had a fundamental conflict with his own ideas, and it was difficult to reconcile this conflict, even if he thought about it from the bottom of his heart. It's not enough to respect Zongze very much.

"It seems that Master Zong is drifting away from me, the rebel."

While Sun Xin was talking to himself, he saw Le He hurried over outside.

"What's the rush?"

Le He handed over a notice: "Look at this."

Sun Xin unfolded the notice and frowned soon after seeing it.

"Why do you want to recommend Baozheng again? Isn't the matter of Baozheng always controlled by big households? What's the matter with the court?"

What was written in the notice was a notice that the Terengganu government announced that all the villages under its jurisdiction should re-elect Baozheng.

Le He nodded and said: "That's exactly the reason. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, this guarantee is indeed changed every few years, but this kind of law has never been practiced since I can remember. Anyone who has money and power can always Be Zhuang Zhongbaozheng for a long time."

Sun Xin frowned and thought about it, and then asked: "Now in our supervisory committee, the supervisors of our supervisory committee are responsible for maintaining the integrity of each village, right?"

Le He nodded: "It's more than [-]%. In the past, the insurance in the village was a very important name. It can not only train the Zhuang Ding, but also often pay taxes. Only big households can do it. But since each village has a supervisory committee , in Zhuangzi with the supervisory committee, it is just a vain job to keep upright, and whoever loves to do it should do it."

"In the past, there were also some big households who were long Baozheng and continued to use their name, and some simply let Baozheng's name hang on the supervisor's head whoever was elected as a supervisor. In short, it is already a vain name."

Sun Xin understood instantly, and took a closer look at the notice, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I knew this Zongze would not let us go."

Now Sun Xin's Supervisory Committee and the government office in Dengzhou City maintain a relationship where well water does not interfere with river water. The government acquiesces in their power to rule in the village, and Sun Xin's Supervisory Committee is still due to pay taxes. All corvee service is served, but the meaning of this step in Dengzhou Mansion is a bit vicious.

However, Sun Xin didn't care much about it. Apparently, these Danzhou officials still don't know how much power they have over the land under their rule.

Sun Xin asked someone to call Wu Song, and showed him the notice. Wu Song paid attention to it, and Sun Xin said: "Pay attention to the latest trends, and then go to Dengzhou Mansion to check carefully and find out the ins and outs of this matter." Find out later."

Wu Song nodded and took the order and went.

The supervisory committee itself is much more tightly organized than the imperial government's yamen, not to mention the government's access to households, at least to the village level.After the establishment of the protection party, the capillaries of the entire information were opened up, and the efficiency of handling affairs was much higher than that of the Dengzhou government office.

Soon Wu Song found out the cause and effect of the matter clearly. Zong Ze took the lead to send out the notice, and they had already encouraged some people in many villages to do the maintenance.

The title of Baozheng should have been selected by the imperial court, and there was no need to discuss it with the people in the village. Whoever the imperial court designated was whoever it was.

As for the new Baozheng appointed by Zongze, most of them are big households in the village who have lost a lot of benefits after the Protection Party came to power.

There are also some people who are even big landlords who are unwilling to cooperate with Sun Xin. Under the attack of the supervisory committee, their status in the village has been greatly damaged. They must be happy to accept such a title given by the court.

The Board of Supervisors originally maintained a close relationship with the court, but now the court has directly handed over Baozheng's name. According to the court, these people are the real managers of village affairs. Once these people conflict with the Board of Supervisors, the Board of Supervisors will position would be a little embarrassing.

"Some villages have become chaotic, especially around a few private schools, Duozhuangzi. Those who have studied before are discussing the rights and wrongs of our supervisory committee, and some people are planning to use money to build Zhuangding Baojia. .”

Although Wu Song was serious when he said this, he didn't show any expression of fear, and Sun Xin didn't take it seriously:
"Is anyone in the factory allied with them?"

"No," Pei Xuan said, "our protection party members in several large factories said that these things basically have no interference with the operation of the factory."

Sun News said that he was completely relieved, what would the corrupt scholars and landlords who had been squeezed to the edge in the competition have no ability to control the financial power.

Just because these people still want to overthrow his rule in the Supervisory Committee, Zong Ze is really dreaming.

"However, a few big households responded."

Only then did Sun Xin pay attention: "Who is it?"

"One is Zhao De from Zhaojiazhuang."

"There is also Lingzhou. I don't know if Zongze also went to the letter to re-elect Baozheng. There were several Zhuangzi under Zengtou City, and now there are three Zhuangzi who also said that they have been replaced by the new Baozheng."

Sun Xin frowned. Zong Ze's method had no effect on most of the Chuang Tzus who had been firmly controlled by the Supervisory Committee. The real threat was the power that he had squeezed out of the Supervisory Committee in the previous struggle.

These people may be integrated under Zong Ze's call. If these cases can really join forces to resist the reform led by Sun Xin, it may really cause a lot of trouble.

This Zhao De is the one who jumped out from his end, and Zengtou City...

"Who sent the news from Zengtou City?"

"Shi Wengong, according to him, this seems to be their family's Zeng Suo's idea."

"It's all out!" Xiao Leng looked at Wu Song who was on the side and said, "Look for all the new Baozhengs in Dengzhou, and let everyone pass the customs. If the attitude is not honest, use the means of the Supervisory Committee and the Protection Party , Let them go bankrupt. They can't move a single soldier."

Le He didn't think that these people might turn Sun's family upside down, so he wasn't very nervous just now, but he was still shocked when he heard that Sun Xin was going to use such a thunderous method.

"If that's the case, we and Zong Ze will have a big relationship. We have always had a good relationship with the government..."

Sun Xin shook his head and said to Le He very seriously: "Brother, you must not be confused about this matter. What will people think of us if the meat we have eaten is dug out again?"

"The supervisory committee will take one step back, and it will take ten steps back in the future."

"Now they just cut off his fingers. They didn't dare to move after they knew the pain. This can also make the two sides not too teary. But if they don't fight, let them go further. In the future we will When you want to make a move, the injury will only be deeper, and then it is really possible to get the fish killed and the net broken!"

When these words were spoken, several people present looked pensive, and Pei Xuan agreed: "The owner is right."

Le He thought for a while, then nodded.

Zong Ze just wanted to try to get Sun Xin to disband the Protection Party, but he didn't expect that this would be a setback for Sun Xin.
