Suzhou City is different from other cities. The outside of the city, especially the west part of the city, is too developed. This has resulted in huge traffic and congestion at Changmen and Xumen in the west city.
In the original historical time and space, during the Qing Dynasty, a new city gate was opened between Changmen and Xumen.
It can be seen that the idea of opening a new city gate is very reasonable and has practical needs.
Lin Tailai only expressed this idea a hundred or two hundred years in advance.
Another purpose is to find something for Shen Yongjia to do, so as to prevent him from thinking about things he shouldn't think about every day.
And this is also to give full play to the specialties of Mr. Shen. For the top second generation, isn't the best thing to do is running projects?
So Lin Tailai encouraged and said: "In short, I will leave this matter to you, Mr. Er, to apply first. The entire update society is your strong support!
If it is done, the success will be in the present generation and the benefit will be in the future!”
Shen Yongjia thought about it for a while and felt that it had many benefits and was definitely worth investing his energy in.
"Okay! I'll go talk to the government!" Shen Yongjia agreed.
In this way, Lin Daguan spent a lot of efforts to finally put an end to Mr. Shen, the biggest destabilizing factor in the society.
There is no way, whoever wants Mr. Shen to have a good father must be the leader of the alliance to support him.
Once the benefits reach a certain level, Lin Daguan's current reputation and strength alone cannot stop him.
Even if you can make friends with one or two officials, the tenure of officials generally does not last very long and they will eventually leave. You can't just go through a collapse and reorganization every time you change an official, right?
Therefore, we still need a temporarily stable local sign like Mr. Shen to protect us from wind and rain, attract firepower, or carry thunder.
After taking care of Second Master Shen, Lin Daguan, who returned to Gengxin Academy, just wanted to lie down and rest. He would have to rush to Mudu Port tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Previously, Yuan Zhixian of Changzhou County was fooled into dredging the river at the mouth of the ancient Sanjiang River. Today, he persuaded Mr. Shen to apply for the construction of a new city gate.
In this way, there are two engineering projects waiting to be launched this year. As a training stage, it is enough for the time being.
No matter how much or how big it is, I'm afraid that my own strength will be too much, or that I won't be able to bear it.
Official Lin was making some calculations in his mind when he met Zhang Youyu who was refusing to leave in the hall.
Thinking of the old man's bill problem again, he said:
"I have already tried to find a way to help you settle Li Pianpian's debt. I have wiped out all the debts you owe her family, so you don't have to hide here anymore!"
Zhang Youyu said in surprise: "Is the original bill really gone? Then I will pay a few more bills, and I will go tonight."
Lin Tailai: "."
The purpose of telling Zhang Youyu that the account had been settled was to let Zhang Youyu go home. Unexpectedly, Zhang Youyu's first reaction was to go to Li Pianpian to settle the account again.
"Can you be a human being like me?" Lin Daguan couldn't bear it anymore and scolded him righteously.
Zhang Youyu patted his forehead and said, "It's true that I was negligent and forgot to thank you!
Even if you pass the apprenticeship test this time, I will give you something!"
With that said, Zhang Youyu returned to the room, took out another book and handed it to Lin Tailai. There were four big characters on the book "Reading the Book of Changes".
"Don't say that I don't know how to be a good person. This is my experience in treating the "Book of Changes" and I will pass it on to you today!"
In addition to the Four Books, if scholars want to make progress in the imperial examination, they must also choose one from the Five Classics: Poems, Books, Rites, Yi, and Spring and Autumn to cope with higher-level examinations.
However, the Five Classics are often passed down from family to family and rarely passed on to the outside world. Zhang Youyu was able to give Lin Tailai his knowledge of the Yi Jing, which was very rare.
Lin Tailai took the "Reading of Yi Jiwen" and opened it to see that it was full of handwriting.
After reading a few more paragraphs, Lin Tailai raised his head in surprise, and then asked Zhang Youyu: "Is this really written by you? I don't think it looks like it?"
Zhang Youyu scolded: "Huangkou kid is talking nonsense! If I didn't write it, who could it be? Am I not able to interpret the Bible?"
Lin Tailai still didn't believe it and retorted: "I'm not a non-student, so how can I not see it?
The words in this book are peaceful, sincere and simple, and are completely different from your madness. How could it be written by you?"
Zhang Youyu angrily defended: "This is something I wrote more than 20 years ago. Of course it was different then!"
For some reason, the atmosphere suddenly became sad.
Lin Daguan sighed, this old man was able to write a book about the I Ching more than 20 years ago, but after all the hard work, he still couldn't use it in the end.
After that, Lin Tailai put the book away and said, "This is a very meaningful book."
Zhang Youyu seemed to feel the long-lost respect, and said proudly: "Of course, after all, this is a masterpiece of Confucian classics written by the number one scholar in Suzhou City!"
Lin Tailai replied: "In fact, the greatest significance of this book is that it can always remind me that I must strive to make progress as a person. I must not be like you now in twenty years."
Zhang Youyu: "."
In the evening, Mrs. Fan, who is in charge of the Xinwulian franchise business, came from Mudu Town to collect grain.
After collecting the grain, Mrs. Fan asked: "All the five ministers on the east bank of Taihu Lake agreed to form an alliance, why did you delay in holding back your troops?
If you don't give me an accurate answer, I won't know how to deal with them."
Lin Tailai replied: "Previously, these churches were reluctant, so why did they all suddenly agree?
I suspect there is some fraud involved, but I can’t see through it yet.”
Madam Fan sighed: "Although your concerns are reasonable, there is a problem now. The alliance request was made by us on our own initiative.
If the other party agrees to everything but we dare not accept it, our prestige will be ruined and we will be laughed at!"
Madam Fan's worry is not unreasonable.
In the Tangkou community industry, you still have to pay attention to the word "brave". If you appear too timid, you will really be looked down upon.
Lin Tailai made up his mind and said: "In three days, we will have an alliance with them in Mudu Town! I want to see what they have in mind!"
Then he added: "When we meet for alliance, let our leader take the lead position. If something unexpected happens, there will be an extra buffer."
The next day, the chief planner of Mudu Port came to report again that the preparations for the customs separation of Mudu Port were basically completed.
As long as it is approved by the Xushuguan General Administration, it can be switched on and off immediately.
Lin Daguan planned to go to Xushuguan, report the situation to the royal tax envoy of the royal capital, and apply for a switch.
But before leaving, Magistrate Yuan of Changzhou County suddenly sent another government official to invite people, saying that they had something important to discuss.
The incompetent Lin official had no choice but to go to the city and go to the Changzhou County government office.
When Yuan Zhixian saw Lin Tailai, he said distressedly: "The dredging project at the mouth of the ancient Sanjiang River was rejected by the government!"
Official Lin really wanted to say that since the government office did not agree, it was better to fight based on the reasons. Why did he call him a martial arts officer from Wu County to come over?
After all, you, Yuan Zhixian, are also a famous writer, with a good reputation in the country. If you want to fight hard, the government will not dare to risk your life.
