"Lin Jieyuan! I just went to the grain department of the government office and grabbed this year's account books and seals from Jinongcang in two counties in Suzhou City!
Now I will give the things to you, Lin Jieyuan, and ask Lin Jieyuan to deliver them to the county government.
In addition, I have also arranged for soldiers to guard Jinongcang in the two counties, and I promise to only listen to your orders, the high official!"
Lin Tailai: "."
General Manager Nian was also a talented person. He even tried to use coercion and inducement to prefect Zhu to put the Jinong warehouse under the jurisdiction of the county government. However, General Manager Nian had already used the simplest and crudest practical actions to get everything done.
"Will the government's grain department seal the account books to you?" Lin Daguan said still very suspiciously.
Mr. Nian said wittily: "When I got there, I said I was here to do something for Lin Jieyuan! They naturally cooperated."
This can be regarded as opportunistic. Without Lin Daguan's name, even if surrounded by officers and soldiers, the government grain department would not be able to hand over everything so happily.
In fact, as a military attache, he must have taken a lot of risks by acting so violently in other yamen.
But President Nian Ba ​​has no choice. As long as Lin Tailai walks out of the government office like this, he will never be able to take off his hat as Zhang Siwei's minion.
All he had to do was to do something in the government office area as soon as possible to make Lin Tailai forgive himself.
So Nian Baizong thought of Jinongcang, which Lin Daguan had been thinking about for a long time.
Sure enough, I heard Lin Tailai: "These account books are closely related to the seal. I don't feel confident holding them. You officers and soldiers will continue to help escort me."
President Nian was relieved. He almost fell into the abyss today, but fortunately he was decisive and climbed out again.
Lin Daguan took the account books and related seals, and after coming out of the government office, he first went to the Changzhou County government office.
After meeting Yuan Hongdao, Lin Tailai said directly: "The obstacles have been cleared, and the Sanjiangkou dredging project can be approved."
Yuan Hongdao looked at the account books and seals of the county's Jinongcang, and said happily: "Very good! I have even written an article about Sanjiangkou's antiquity, and I am just waiting for the construction to start and be completed."
Once the funds are in place and the project is launched, he, the county magistrate, will be one of the biggest beneficiaries. How can he not be happy about it?
Although he has no intention of making money from this project, the biggest reward is to be able to leave his name for future generations with the help of the project.
Lin Tailai added: "In order to prevent the government government from taking back the Jinongcang again, I still have some ideas about the management of the Jinongcang and I want to discuss it with the county magistrate."
Yuan Hongdao said doubtfully: "What do you think? You can do all the projects, what else is there?"
Lin Tailai replied: "I have verified that in the Xuande Dynasty, when counties in Jiangnan began to build agricultural warehouses, they adopted a system of joint management by the government and the people.
Warehousing and cashiers are jointly supervised by the government, local gentry, and local representatives.
But later on, as the government gradually became stronger, the Jinongcang became completely managed and managed by the government, and the local gentry and people had no way to intervene."
Although Yuan Hongdao was not very interested in being an official or government affairs, he was definitely a smart man and he immediately understood what Lin Tailai meant.
He took the initiative and asked: "Do you want to restore the old system?"
Lin Tailai said: "Following precedent is justifiable, so why not?"
There was a rule in the official circles of the Ming Dynasty. When encountering government affairs that you didn't know how to make a decision, you would often look at whether there was a precedent. If there was a precedent, you would act in accordance with the precedent.
As long as there is precedent, it is a kind of natural political correctness.
Yuan Hongdao hesitated and said: "But there is still a problem."
Then Lin Tailai hurriedly said: "What other problems are there? The restoration of public and private co-management of Jinongcang is definitely a striking political achievement of the county, and it will be appreciated by the local people!"
Yuan Hongdao said helplessly: "What this county means is that you are not a citizen of Changzhou County. Even if the government and the people manage it jointly, it is not your turn to intervene."
Lin Tailai could only say: "We can settle the matter first and think about the selection slowly."
Yuan Hongdao asked again: "The two counties are one city, and many systems often need to be synchronized. So regarding Wuxian County, haven't you discussed it with Mr. Deng County?"
Lin Tailai replied decisively: "There is no need to discuss with him! I only recognize Yuan Xianzun in the official circles of Suzhou City!"
"By the way, there is another thing." Yuan Hongdao then added: "Wujiang County sent people to the county government to protest, saying that according to ancient book research, Sanjiangkou should be in Wujiang, not Changzhou County."
Lin Daguan replied nonchalantly: "So what are the records in the ancient books? Can their reputation in Wujiang County compare to you, the county magistrate, and our Xinxin Society?"
We say that the ancient Sanjiangkou was in Changzhou County, then it was in Changzhou County."
Today's status is not good at all. It's hard to update again. I hope it will be better tomorrow.
