"My name is Lin Pingchang, and my nickname is Hu Niu!"

The words were blown into the ears of everyone around them by the wind. When they heard this answer, they seemed to have been suddenly bumped into their hearts.

Everyone may not have seen the little girl who punished evil and promoted good in Beijing, or they may be unfamiliar with Lin Pingchang's name, but they know that Lin Qingtian, the former governor of Shuntian, had a sister who was willing to stand up for justice, so they were called Hu Niu.

It was Hu Niu who led the constable to rectify the public security in Beijing and severely cracked down on the arrogance of the gangsters in Beijing, which led to the current appearance of everyone in Beijing obeying the law and discipline.

That?

County Chief Cao, who was originally laughing at Lin Weiran, was stunned. The cute decimal dimples had disappeared and his mouth was wide open.

However, his eyes had moved from Lin Pingchang to Lin Weiran. Looking at the young official of the Ministry of Revenue, the answer was about to come out.

Lin Xuran knew that Zhang Dashan wanted to take revenge on their brother and sister, and his heart sank slightly, and responded with a blank expression: "My name is Lin Xuran, and his name is Ruoyu!"

The matter involved revenge on Hu Niu, but it was not said that there was only a small local rich man. Even Zhang Shouzhi, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, or even Xu Jie, the chief assistant of the dynasty, Lin Qiran was not afraid of the other party at all.

Ah? Isn’t this Lin Wenkui?

Zhang Dashan just thought Hu Niu's name was familiar, but now when he heard Lin Weiran's self-reported name, his eyes couldn't help but glar, and an identity exploded in his mind.

Although his clan uncle has been transferred to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Works and is responsible for the Xianling project that the emperor attaches great importance to, compared with Lin Weiran, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he is no longer on the same level.

Especially in October last year, Lin Weiran received the first-rank title of "Prince Taibao". He was only a short distance from the cabinet. I am afraid he will be the cabinet master of the Ming Dynasty in a few years.

As soon as he thought of this, he saw Lin Weiran's eyes, and his legs suddenly lost support. He fell to the ground with his butt, and a smell of urine spread in the air.

"Meet Lord Lin!"

"Greetings to Lord Shangshu!"

"Greetings to Master Qingtian!"

...

When the small vendors and people around learned about Lin Weiran's identity, they suddenly fell to a large area and worshiped the Minister of Revenue, who was once named as the Blue Sky.

Lin Qingran sighed inwardly and said to everyone at home: "You don't need to be polite, fellow villagers!" After a pause, he said seriously: "You must be aware of today's affairs! Those who break their legs must not grow this wind, and they cannot tolerate it! Although I am no longer the prefect of Shuntian, I, Lin, will definitely be a pity for justice in this case!"

"Sir, I am really Master Qingtian!"

"It's my blessing to have this kind of lord!"

"There are many Lord Shangshu, and we, the grass-rooted people, have a support!"

...

The old villager standing in front knelt down again, moved by Lin Junran’s actions today and worried about the injustice of the world in the early years, but sighed with tears.

"I'm so serious, please get up quickly!" Lin Qingran looked at these touched old men, and his heart was also full of flesh. He personally stepped forward to help up a sad old man, and called on other old men who insisted on kneeling.

The old man who was helped up was moved and cried bitterly. But Lin Fu was loyal to Lin Qingran's side? He even found the right time to support Lin Qingran's "old man who was hitting the car".

"The lower-ranking official, the county magistrate of Wanping, Zhu Miaoshui, paid homage to the Secretary of the Shangshu!" Magistrate Cao was on the ground, like the humble servant, and kneeled down to Lin Qingran.

Lin Junran's heart was hardened. Knowing how humble the official was in front of him, he would be more arrogant in front of the people. He said coldly: "Cao County Magistrate? Since you insist on bringing him back to Wanping County Office for trial? Then your Wanping County Office will have to give the people of the world a fair judgment. If you dare to protect the evil people? Although this official does not care about the criminal case, he will also personally hold the Wanping County Office accountable!"

"Remember, please remember!" The great knight of the county magistrate Cao was rising and responded with a gritty look.

He knew that his future was already dim. Although this case had nothing to do with him, because of his competition, it was already a disaster.

All this officialdom is smart? Naturally, everyone knows that he has taken the case into the Wanping County Government's mind? And what future can a Wanping County Magistrate who wants to shelter the evil people?

Lin Qingran didn't want to talk too much? He waved his hand at Lin Fu and turned around and left here.

The constable from Wanping County Government stepped forward with tactfulness? Zhang Dashan, who had peed his pants, put on shackles and was about to send the person back to Wanping County Government for trial.

Wu Qiuyu and Hua Yingrong walked out of Dajue Temple together? They followed the brother and sister who happened to be coming over? The family returned to Beijing in a mighty manner.

On the way back, Lin Weiran's heart was always heavy.

As early as when he was an official in Guangdong, he realized the harm of usury, which is a major disaster for social unrest and even the main factor of a dynasty.

But after he further understood, he knew that this stubborn disease could not be touched. This was not the lending of each household, but the officials and gentry in the world were lending, and the lending people also included the chief minister of the dynasty.

When Yan Song's property was searched last year, in addition to collecting 2 million taels of kiln silver from Yan's mansion, there were actually more than 100,000 taels of "debt silver" loaned to local people by the Yan family.

Xu Jie was able to own hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land in the wealthy southeast, which was not achieved by just embezzlement. He was probably also involved in local lending.

People are usually selfish. Although the Ming Dynasty had abolished slavery, they firmly controlled the local people through their fields and debts to create wealth for them.

For example, it is Zhang Dashan who is lending now, but Zhang Shouzhi, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, is probably the real person behind the scenes and the biggest beneficiary of usury.

It was because of knowing that usury involved high-ranking officials in the court that Lin Qingran knew that usury could not be easily touched at that time, and the United Money Bank had also been cautious in its development over the years.

In fact, this problem has long been realized by people of knowledge. The famous reformer Wang Anshi proposed the famous "Qingmiao Law" based on this.

All the roads are based on the 15 million stones of money from Guanghui Warehouse. If grains are exchanged with the Transportation Department for cash, they can be used to lend them to rural households. If there is any surplus, they can also lend them to urban households. When the households are loaned, five or ten households must be settled into one insurance policy, and the upper third-class households will be guaranteed. Summer materials will be loaned before the 30th of the first lunar month every year, and autumn materials will be loaned before the 30th of May. Summer materials and autumn materials will be repaid in May and October respectively, and interest will be collected by two cents.

It can be seen from this that the starting point of the Qingmiao Law is actually good. The court replaced the lender status of usury local rich man and gave the people a "lower" loan interest.

But unfortunately, this Qingmiao method failed in the end, and the most important reason for the failure was that "the dragon-slaying boy became an evil dragon."
