Chapter 365 The Truth Within the Truth

Zhang Anshi couldn’t help himself.

Joyful.

There is no greater joy in life, is there?

And the people in the court, with hindsight, seem to be slowly starting to come around.

Many people’s faces changed slightly.

Zhu was a bit puzzled instead.

He gazed at Zhang Anshi: “What is the reason for this, Zhang Qing ……?”

Zhang Anshi said: “Yes, I actually at first, I also feel puzzled, how to come to acquire land in such a good way? Your majesty is aware of, since the new policy of Taipingfu, divided the land, this land price is already worthless, but the price of land such a rise, really let a person feel unthinkable, so I ordered the绶归獞to investigate in detail.”

“Good lord, this is not a good idea until you look into it.”

“One of the minister specifically learned that a person surnamed Wang, Wang Mou this person, is also considered a local family origin, he is lifted, living in the capital, this is for the imperial examinations to study. Since the Xia Gong, Jin Gong since the incident, this Wang Mou also for the great anger, follow the broken mouth.”

The silence in the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and many of the ministers who had already come to their senses, by and large, looked as if they were dead mothers.

Zhang Anshi then cheerfully continued, “This person scolded, naturally, when I forced the sale of land to the Xia Gong people, etc., but scolded, only to find that the original problem is not in the sale of land to the Xia Gong and Jin Gong, but in the Xia Gong and Jin Gong because of the rise in the price of the land, the minister and he signed the original price to recover the land of the deed.”

Actually, this is understandable. If you want to scold Zhang Anshi, you have to admit in the first place that the sale of land in the first place didn’t screw people like Ha Yuanji.

Since there is no pit, then an acre of land five hundred taels of grain silver, actually increased the price, this originally unthinkable thing, if you do not believe, then again scold Zhang Anshi is not reasonable.

That is to say, you have to recognize the value of the land first, and decided that this thing it is worth this price, Zhang Anshi is in the pit, you can be righteous indignation.

You could say …… this one really hits the nail on the head.

At this time, Zhang Anshi continued: “Later, this Wang Mou heart muttered, what land, actually so valuable, so even Xia Gong and Jin Gong and other public officials, even for it and the ministers to turn against each other? The streets and alleys are talking about, around many of the lifers and friends and relatives are also talking about it, this Wang Mou since he wants to scold, naturally, but also to have a target, can not help but understand some of the situation of the station, but also roughly know why this land rose.”

“Cursing, Wang Mou cursed more and more, the deeper the understanding, and realized that the station land has a huge commercial use, the price is not expensive, but once the land is purchased, it can be passed on to the children and grandchildren, as …… as …… as this The countryside to purchase land, to tenant farmers to rent the same. Now, after the new policy, Zhili has begun to divide the land, the other state capitals, many of the gentry are also towards the end of the day, this Wang Mou’s land is not in Zhili, but can not help but worry about it ……”

“So, he could not help but want to understand the movement of the land, after this go to view, only to know, like him, there are quite a few people. The price of this land, even in just a few days, and rose some, such as a profitable business, of course, Wang Mou is refused, he is a man of honor, this is disdainful, denounced those who scramble to buy the shameless, but go back a few days later, the heart is difficult to calm, these days concerned about the summer public people and so on quite a lot of time, the more attention, the more in the heart of the heart of the land, and then learned that even went up, the price is up to a thousand taels. ”

Zhang Anshi colorful, said Zhang Anshi blood, Zhu Di urged: “What else, what else?”

So Zhang Anshi then hastened to continue: “Watching people earn silver, they clearly have the opportunity to buy, but did not make up his mind, which can be more difficult than their own loss of money. So wang mou toss and turn all day long, several days did not sleep well, and then also finally made up his mind, actually also go to buy land.”

“His family is a local family, and there are many relatives for the government, such as his credit people, the bank is the favorite, when he loaned thousands of taels of silver, to purchase seven or eight acres of land. Just this time, he couldn’t help but beat his chest, hated himself for being too late, if it was purchased earlier, I’m afraid the same price, but can buy a dozen acres of land.”

Zhu Di heard, can not help but laugh: “so, you mean …… now will this land bought to go, actually are Wang someone and so on?”

“Eight or nine is not very close to it.” Zhang Anshi said seriously, “And I found out that those who purchased the land were mostly scholars, and there were even quite a number of official family members, as well as the sons and daughters of some of the local big clans.”

This was really out of Zhu Di’s expectation, he said with a surprised face, “What is the reason for this?”

Zhang Anshi then said: “The price of land is too high, just one mu, the average citizen may save up a lifetime of silver can not buy. And merchants have silver, but the vast majority of merchants, at least the minister in the right governor’s office this side of the understanding, these years because of the construction of railroads, the market demand is too great, and therefore a lot of merchants will be almost all the family are invested in the production!”

“It’s not like they have any land to pledge to the money changers, and even if they did, they’ve long since mortgaged it in expanding their production, and really don’t have any extra silver to put back into the store.”

Zhu was surprised to say, “It is so, so that …… the land of the various stations in Taipingfu, all sold?”

“Yes, all of them were sold, sold out.” Zhang Anshi said.

Zhu Di did not ask how much silver, because this is confidential, to ask is also to ask later in private.

But now he could not help but be shaken, and at this time refreshed, so that, when the debt was raised, nine times out of ten, the silver of this railroad is not only not lost, but earned back.

Just see Zhang Anshi and said: “I think about it, this is Xia Gong and other people support, if not Xia Gong, there is no minister today. This time the head of the credit belongs to Xia Gong, Jin Gong and other public officials, Your Majesty …… Xia Gong for the construction of railroads, for my new policy to open up the situation, set up a sweatshooting, his day if the new policy can be a great success, Xia Gong and others, it is really not to be credited.”

Natsubara Yoshi’s face suddenly changed when he heard that.

Golden Pure: “……”

Compared to Jin Chun and the others, Xia Yuanji, as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, clearly understood the joints better than they did.

After all, it is a person who deals with money and grain, although he is not familiar with Zhang Anshi’s various routines, but like him such a supremely intelligent person, in fact, only need a little bit of enlightenment, will immediately know the original reason.

It’s over.

His face shifted.

In the process, he actually went off the gun.

This made the whole world know about it and allowed Zhang Anshi to take advantage of the opportunity to sell all those lands.

What does it mean to sell at a high price?

It means that Zhang Anshi has cleared out his own risks, which, in turn, are transferred to the buyer.

The people who bought the land, according to Zhang Anshi’s analysis, were mostly government dependents, scholars, and gentry, and all of them purchased at high prices, and were burdened with loans from the money changers, and in nine out of ten cases, even mortgaged what they could.

It also means that if the price of this land goes wrong, I don’t know how many people will have to perish and break their families.

It can be said that this time, in the process of snatching, it was carried out under a completely irrational situation.

Because many people, in order to deplore Zhang Anshi, who had preconceived ideas, had already overvalued the land continuously.

This is actually understandable, the higher the price estimate, the more it seems that Zhang Anshi original price buy back hateful, and the hall Shangshu and the dynastic princes, actually in order to fight for the land, and the Jin Yiwei commanding officer to turn against each other, which in itself also proves that the land is extremely high value.

The horror of the human heart lies in this, because many times, people simply do not care about the facts, he only speaks of the position, once on the opposite side of Zhang Anshi, in order to denounce Zhang Anshi, then those who oppose Zhang Anshi’s that circle of people, almost everyone will be unanimous, biting the value of the land is not very high.

In addition to personal emotional judgment, when your close friends and relatives, your colleagues, fellow students, fellow townspeople, old friends, every one of them seems to parrot the general, cartwheel like repeatedly read this land is good, this land is too good, worth a lot of money, this kind of land, Zhang Anshi even want to buy back five hundred taels, this is the beginning of derangement.

In fact, at this time, all mouths speak, three people become a tiger, even if at first they can not accept such a super-high price of people, at this time will be thumped.

Not to mention the fact that this was widely publicized and precisely placed against the group that opposed Zhang Anshi, which happened to be the group that was originally keen on relying on the land to make profits, and most importantly, they still had the silver, and they had the pledged land.

It’s a precision strike. They won’t spare a single one.

Yoshi Natsubara: “……”

At the thought of this, Xia Yuanji only felt like a man in the back, because …… in the whole process, he was used as a gun.

Now that the mystery is revealed, it would be fine if the land prices can still be maintained, but what if they cannot be maintained in the future?

He, Natsubara Yoshi, then really became a great contributor to the New Deal, because the first reaction of those who were angry was ……

Is this a setup by Ha Won Gil and Kim Chun Ren together with Jang An-shi!

This is actually understandable. Zhang Anshi has land, and Xia Yuanji and others also have land in their hands, so in order to speculate on the value of the land, they deliberately make trouble to attract people to buy it, which is not tantamount to digging a good fire pit so as to teach people to jump into this fire pit.

At that time, it must be that Natsubara Yoshito and the others could not wash away even if they jumped into the Yellow River.

It is important to realize that Natsubara Yoshi, the man, has managed to keep his mouth shut in the midst of the New Deal.

On the one hand, he was inwardly recognizing the great benefits of the New Deal for the country.

On the other hand, as a scholar and a representative of the old officials, he knew that if the New Deal continued in this way, it would be a devastating blow to the gentry.

Personal feelings mingled with the greater good of the country, so that all he could do was to be silent and to try desperately to level the playing field.

But now …… everything is empty, and he feels as if he has been tied to a chariot by Zhang Anshi all of a sudden.

And where this chariot would go, he himself did not know, and whether he would be ruined or not, he could not see.

The only thing he knew was that he had been completely tied up, the doors welded shut, and he couldn’t get out of the car.

At this moment, many people’s gazes subconsciously looked towards Natsubara Ji.

Many of the eyes, they looked extraordinarily odd.

Xia Yuanji like awn in the back, hanging his head down, silent, he did not know whether to cry or laugh, as a matter of fact, the land to come back, it seems to have earned a lot, but …… why he wanted to cry?

Good for you Zhang Anshi ……

Xia Yuanji couldn’t help but silently gnash his teeth, but when he looked up at Zhang Anshi, his hateful gaze, again, dissolved like ice.

For reason told him that at this time, he must not countermand.

The cost of the counterprogramming is too great, not because of who Anshi Zhang is, but because ……

By now, the only thing you can do is smile and show that you are wise and have everything under control.

If he flipped out at this time, his confidence was shattered, and then any bad news came out, which then led to the plummeting of land prices, I am afraid that Zhang Anshi would not have to make a move, and those who had gone crazy and grabbed the land, would have to bury him alive.

So Natsubara Yoshi face smile, a look of success does not have to be in my expression, eyes in the flash of wise luster, the corners of the mouth slightly hooked up seemingly shallow smile.

Zhu Di at this time apparently in a good mood, laughing: “good, Xia Qing, Jin Qing and other ministers, is also a credit! This is right, national governance, the top and bottom of the same desire. Well, Xia Qing, you just said you want to play the matter of Zhang Qing, what else to add and report?”

What else could Xia Yuanji say at this point but, “Your Majesty, I have nothing more to say.”

Zhu Di then smiled and nodded: “I am most worried about the ah, is the generals do not get along, the other day, I also heard some rumors, now realize that this is just a misunderstanding, the two Secretary is my Lin Xiangru and Lian Po also.”

Yoshi Natsubara: “……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Your Majesty is well versed in literature and history, and allusions are made with ease; I must read more in the future and be like Your Majesty.”

Zhu Di looked deeply at Zhang Anshi, who was full of thoughts about silver at this time.

But still had to be patient: “What else do the Secretaries want to play? Alas …… this day this day to court discussion, but because of this matter, delayed a lot of time, I these days, a big illness first healed ……”

That’s close to just telling them to fuck off.

The ministers were very discerning and had to say, “I have nothing to say. ”

Zhu Di was very satisfied, busy saying, “In that case, then …… strike the dynasty.”

Zhu Di said, secretly giving Zhang Anshi a wink.

This monarch and ministers since early tacit understanding, Zhang Anshi immediately understand, standing in place motionless.

The rest of the group filed out in twos and threes.

Natsuwonji’s feet were more like a small motor, and he left in a flurry of wind.

Some people still want to talk with them on foot, but Natsubara Ji also seems to be blind, a smoke will be sprinting away.

Among the hundred officials, many of them took a deep breath. This court meeting was too much information.

Many people were pondering, so much so that their expressions couldn’t help but carry a bit of worry.

Jinchung is very spirited.

He shuttled in the crowd of the retreating dynasty, as if the striking one of the flower butterfly, a moment to the side of this person, asked in a low voice: “Liu Gong, you say …… Zhang Anshi said that Wang Mou, is not you?”

“Hey …… Jin Gong, don’t ask, don’t ask.”

“You’re still really Wang?”

“Hey …… small talk, small talk.”

Jin Zhong ran to the side of another person, “Li Gong ……”

The man’s expression was solemn, and he hastily said, “I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave.”

Jin Zhong could only sigh and couldn’t help but murmur, “No wonder the old man pinched his fingers and counted, when he entered the hall just now, he saw that this hall was filled with black gas and seemed to have a demonic aura in the sky, no wonder, no wonder.”

“The Golden Duke ……”

Instead, someone paced at that moment, calling out to Jin Zhong as he did so.

Jin Zhong stopped and looked back, but it was Yang Rong and Hu Guang.

Jin Zhong smiled and said, “Duke Yang and Duke Hu, do you think that the Wang Mou that Zhang Anshi spoke of is you?”

Yang Rong look still calm, a slight smile said, “seven hundred taels of silver did Wang Mou, and then saw one thousand one hundred and fifty taels, felt wrong, then sold off, of course, I said not me, is my son Yang Gong.”

Jin Zhong was surprised and said, “Yang Gong’s son, if I remember well, should only be eight years old, a small age has such economic talent, really teach people to admire.”

Yang Rong calmly said, “It’s just karma, I realized something was wrong when I saw everyone talking about it.”

Jin Zhong, however, turned his eyes and landed on Hu Guang’s body, saying, “Where is Mr. Hu, is Mr. Hu ever that Wang Mou?”

Hu Guang didn’t have Yang Rong’s composure and laughed bitterly, “I haven’t reacted yet, I don’t know what happened yet, and this land is sold out.”

Jin Zhong then said with emotion, “Hu Gong is better than me.”

Instead, it was Hu Guang who had a tone of getting to the bottom of the matter, “Did Jin Gong also do this Wang Mou?”

Jin Zhong shook his head.

Hu Guang breathed a sigh of relief, “People say that Jin Gong has many plans, it seems… it’s the same as me.”

Jin Zhong laughed, “Yet there is a difference, and Jin has made a judgment.”

Hu Guang then curiously said, “Then why don’t you follow the example of Lord Yang?”

“Nothing.” Jin Zhong stroked his beard and said slowly, “Poorer.”

Hu Guang: “……”

Well, he was powerless to refute it!

The three of them walked side by side while you talked.

After a pause, Hu Guangzhe could not help but say, “Zhang Anshi this kid, really bad, Xia Gong and Jin Department Hall, this time only to be bad, good, was placed in deep water and fire ……”

Jin Zhong, however, laughed, “This hand is very much in the shadow of Monk Yao, truly worthy of being Monk Yao’s successor.”

Yang Rong pursed his lips, paused for a moment, and said, “Let’s wait and see what happens again, the next thing in this matter will not be simple.”

…………

Except for Zhang Anshi, the other courtiers have gone clear.

Zhu Di sat comfortably on the dragon chair, and then had Zhang Anshi given a seat.

After Zhang Anshi took his seat, Yiluoha personally poured tea up, the atmosphere is seemingly relaxed.

Zhang Anshi only gently sipped his tea.

Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi fixedly and said, “Tell the truth to me, is this something you arranged a long time ago?”

Zhu’s tone carried a bit of certainty, as if he was already sure.

Zhang Anshi didn’t make any excuses and said truthfully, “I don’t dare to hide it from your majesty, it was indeed premeditated.”

Zhu Di then smiled and said, “Then you will be honest with me, how much did the merchant bank earn this time?”

Well, that was the point of his mind.

“I …… didn’t calculate the detailed account, however, the pure profit of fifteen million taels of grain silver up and down is still there …… Of course, it may not be accurate, we have to wait for the actual account to come out.” Zhang Anshi carefully said.

Chu: “……”
