Chapter 150 Make something big! Here we come!

Chapter 150 Big trouble! (Coming!)

Since he planned to start something big, Zhang Heng immediately started making preparations.

Zhang Heng is a person with great execution ability. He leaves all the matters of the three divisions to his subordinates to complete. He only focuses on the account books and urges the internal bank to raise money quickly, and devotes the rest of his time to the things he is planning.

Hide in the small building and become one, regardless of winter, summer, spring and autumn.

This is just the self-comfort of the literati.

As an official, there is no way to hide.

Shi Jie can't even hide from death.

In July, Shi Jie died of illness at home at the age of forty-one.

However, even if he died, he still could not escape the turmoil in the world.

In November, Kong Zhiwen in Xuzhou was involved in a rebellion. After it was discovered, his home was confiscated, and the letters Shi Jie had exchanged with Kong Zhiwen in the past were also confiscated.

Xia Song used this to make a big fuss, telling Zhao Zhen that Shi Jie was not actually dead, but had been sent to Khitan by Fu Bi to borrow troops, with Fu Bi acting as internal support.

This move was indeed extremely vicious, so Zhao Zhen sent officials to deliver the coffin and conduct an autopsy.

To be honest, Zhang Heng didn't have a good impression of this Shi Jie. He was a bit talkative and almost always called "Tao". "The Tao of Yao, Shun, Tang, Civil and Military" arranged a much more detailed Confucianism than Han Yu's.

The list of "Tao Tong" includes "sages" such as Fu Xi, Shen Nong, Huang Di, Shaohao, Zhuan Xu, Tang Yao, Yu Shun, Xia Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, Zhou Gong, and Confucius. He is a staunch Confucianist.

So it seems a bit extreme.

But Zhang Heng still admires him. He is a very determined educator.

He spent most of his life engaged in educational activities, running academies, presiding over local academic officials, and spared no effort throughout his life.

He promoted Yingtianfu Academy and built an academy in Berlin in the southeast corner of Dongyue Temple. During his period of mourning in Culai Mountain, he founded the "Culai Academy" in the Changchun Ridge of Culai Mountain. Later, he entered the Imperial Academy to teach directly, and Taixue flourished.

At this point, Shi Jie can still be regarded as Zhang Heng's teacher.

Hearing that Zhao Zhen actually sent someone to release the coffin for autopsy, Zhang Heng was stunned at the time. Fortunately, Du Yan, who knew Yanzhou, reminded Lu Jujian and Gong Dingchen from Jingdong Prison to have insurance, so he was spared the release of the coffin.

For the first time, Zhang Heng felt creepy about Xia Song, the instigator of this incident.

Some people blame Xia Song for the failure of the Qingli New Deal. They say that Xia Song continued to murder and exclude Fan Zhongyan and others, which led to the failure of the New Deal. However, in Zhang Heng's view, Xia Song only represented the counterattack of the old forces. The Qingli New Deal

The reason for the failure was the lack of fighting experience of Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others who were in charge. The reason still lies with Fan Zhongyan and Zhao Zhen.

But this time Xia Song refused to let go of even a dead person like Shi Jie, which really made Zhang Heng feel horrified.

Zhang Heng made up his mind that if one day he had a conflict with this Xia Song, he would not hesitate to put him to death and not give him a chance to counterattack, otherwise he would easily be killed.

This matter made a big fuss, but it had nothing to do with Zhang Heng. He just felt a little emotional and then immersed himself in preparing for the big event.

But on this day, while Zhang Heng was still writing and drawing, someone rushed into Zhang Heng's mansion shouting.

Zhang Heng was awakened by the noise in his own world, and then saw the road-level official he saw that day. The old man was quarreling with Ding Shougong, shouting loudly: "What are you doing? I'm not looking for trouble, am I?"

When I get the money, I just go to your chief to thank you, what are you doing!"

Zhang Heng smiled and stopped Ding Shougong: "Ding Kongmu, go ahead and do your business."

When the old man saw Zhang Heng, he exclaimed: "Aren't you the young man I saw that day? Why are you here? You couldn't be... Hey, you are Zhang Heng!"

Zhang Heng smiled and said: "I am Zhang Heng. The superior officer came to look for me. Didn't he get the money?"

The old man smiled and said: "I got it, I got it. I asked Ding Kongmu and found out that Judge Zhang had solved this big problem as soon as he came. So I was very happy and wanted to thank you."

Zhang Heng waved his hands repeatedly and said: "This is all business, this is all business, there is no need for old Shangguan to be so polite."

The old man shook his head and said: "If everyone were like you, things would be easy. Alas, I am the transport envoy of Chengdu. Alas, Chengdu is in trouble this year. People are suffering from disasters and thieves. Refugees are one of them.

Wave after wave came, but the relief food never arrived!

I was so worried that I had to come to Bianjing myself. If Yan Guan found out, he would have to give me a break saying that I had left my post without permission.

Humph, I don’t want to be an official anymore, and there’s no point in being a pissing official! Even a third-level subordinate dares to look down on me... Ahem, Judge Zhang, I’m not here to complain to you, but to complain to you.

You are thanking me, if the Third Division had an officer like you, why would it be like this!"

Zhang Heng also had a look of helplessness on his face. He couldn't agree with these words casually, and quickly explained: "Shangguan, there is no way to do this. It's difficult for the Third Division. I still have to raise the money everywhere. The Third Division is now

If you really don’t have money, you still have to wait for the rice to be put into the pot. That’s right, this year’s taxes on Chengdu Fulu...”

When the leader heard this, he immediately handed over and said goodbye: "Um... I still have something to do, so I won't stay any longer, so I say goodbye!"

He ran away in a flash, for fear of being caught by Zhang Heng.

Ding Shougong came in from outside and said with a wry smile: "Judge Zhang, this old man didn't disturb you, did he?"

Zhang Heng asked curiously: "Who is this person?"

Ding Shougong said: "This person is Wei Zushun, the transfer envoy of Chengdu Fulu Road."

Zhang Heng smiled and nodded: "I've never heard of it. As soon as I mentioned this year's taxes, he ran away..."

Ding Shougong said: "Chengdu Fulu suffered a disaster this year, and I'm afraid the tax collection won't be able to raise it. Whatever there is, it has been intercepted and used for disaster relief. It is probably not enough, so I come here every day."

Zhang Heng exclaimed: "This man is so bold that he dares to withhold taxes. He really doesn't want to be an official anymore."

Ding Shougong smiled bitterly and said: "This man is a piece of meat. If we really get rid of him, Chengdu Fulu will rebel next year. It will probably be difficult."

Zhang Heng nodded: "Then let's not count the taxes on Chengdu Fulu for a few years now. We probably won't be able to collect them. Tax collection is not our responsibility, but we have to be prepared if the money is not in place."

Ding Shougong was not very concerned and said: "This has already been planned. Every year, there are always a few roads that are hit by disasters and cannot collect taxes. But as long as the Jiangnan side is okay, the problem will not be too big. Just demolish the east wall to make up for it."

The matter of the Western Wall is our basic skill."

Zhang Heng smiled and nodded: "I am planning to start a big project. Once this project is started, I will probably not be short of money in the future."

Ding Shougong's eyes lit up: "Is it a big project like the coal mine you built for Kaifeng Prefecture, or are you planning to open a large shopping mall? Don't worry, Neizangku will not dare to have any objections. What the Third Division has to do,

Even the officials can’t stop it!”

Zhang Heng looked at Ding Shougong in surprise and asked, "Are you a little crazy?"

Ding Shougong said with a smile: "The existence of the internal storage library is unreasonable. The Third Division has been eyeing it for a long time. It is good if it is not swallowed up directly. What will happen if it robs it of some business!"

Zhang Heng was really impressed by someone like Sansi. They had just borrowed the money, and Sansi's goons immediately started thinking about their shopping mall business again. No wonder they didn't want to deal with Sansi.

Pooh!

Despicable.

But from the perspective of Sansi, there is nothing wrong with it.

It is said that all the wealth in the world belongs to Sansi. If every piece of wealth is not managed by Sansi, Sansi will feel uncomfortable. This is why Sansi can expand into the monster it is today. It is because Sansi is enough.

of greed.

Of course, the internal treasury is not a fun thing. This thing was originally an institution used by the clan to make money. It was used to satisfy the desires of the emperor, clan, and relatives. Sansi saw that such a huge wealth was beyond his control.

Of course, it feels like a thorn in the flesh every day.

Zhang Heng didn't have any ideas. On the contrary, he wanted to cooperate with Neizangku.

However, before cooperation, he had to promote it within the Third Division. After all, what he wanted to do was so big that it would not be successful without the support of the Third Division envoy.

Even the support of the three ministers may not be successful. In the end, it must be supported by the political hall, the Privy Council and the officials.

Thinking of this, Zhang Heng rekindled his passion.

This is his normal work routine.

He is a person who is not afraid of challenges. The bigger the project, not only will he not be afraid of difficulties, but he will also become more passionate.

To promote such a big project, there are so many joints involved, and the people who need to be persuaded are many and high-status. If he were an ordinary person, he might have backed down before it even started. After all, given his current official position, he has to promote this matter.

, just like an earthworm shaking a tree.

But Zhang Heng's passion was like winter weeds tainted with sparks, and in an instant it became a prairie fire.

Zhang Heng found Wang Gongchen, the envoy of the Third Division, and explained the matter.

Wang Gongchen looked confused: "Bank? What is this for?"

Zhang Heng quickly explained: "It is a bank. Of course, the operation is definitely different, but the wealth that can be gathered is not at the same level. Let's put it this way, as long as this bank is established, the court will not be short of it in the future.

Money spent!”

After hearing this, Wang Gongchen suddenly became shrewd: "Where does the money come from?"

Zhang Heng said: "As for how to absorb the savings from the people, we will encourage them by providing interest, so that we will not have to worry about the problem of absorbing savings."

Wang Gongchen was shocked when he heard this: "I help them save their money and also pay interest!"

Zhang Heng smiled bitterly.

Well, in this era, if you deposit money into a bank, not only will you not be given interest, but you will also be charged storage fees. In other words, if you deposit a sum of money into a bank and forget about it, after a certain number of years, not only will your money be gone,

I still owe a large amount of storage fees. I wonder if you are surprised or not!
