The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

The literary conference of the 17th year of Wanli finally concluded successfully. This will definitely be a colorful scene in the history of Ming literature!

However, Lin Tailai, the legal successor to the leader of the New Literary and Art League and the first deputy leader, could not lie down because the autumn harvest in the Jiangnan area was also over.

According to the practice of this era, most official projects were started during the slack time after the autumn harvest to facilitate recruitment and recruitment of manpower.

Therefore, in Songjiang Prefecture, the dredging project of the old lower reaches of Wusong River has officially started in several areas.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the construction and follow-up related matters, it is necessary for Lin Daguan to tour eastward and visit Songjiang Prefecture for the purpose of good neighborliness and friendship.

So after the literary conference, Lin Daguan began to prepare for the trip non-stop.

Feng Shike, secretary-general of the New Literary League and president of the Restoration School Research Association, serves as the middleman of friendship between Lin Daguan and Songjiang Prefecture. He must accompany him throughout the whole process and be responsible for the specific itinerary arrangements.

In addition, Lin Daguan will also bring his guest Gu Bingqian to help share the stress of socializing.

After all, Gu Bingqian is from Kunshan, near Songjiang Prefecture, and is familiar with the situation in Songjiang Prefecture. He himself is famous for his success, and his appearance can be maintained.

Wen Yuanfa, who received the news of the Jiuyuan True Immortal's eastward patrol, immediately sent Wen Zhenmeng to the Lin Mansion and said, "Let the dog serve Jiuyuan Lord and listen to the teacher's teachings morning and night."

Wen Yuanfa knew very well that during Lin Jiuyuan's visit to Songjiang Mansion next door, he would definitely meet with top-notch country officials, and he would definitely make in-depth friendships with them.

Having your son serve and bear witness next to you will definitely be of great benefit to cultivating your son’s connections.

Although the old writers have failed in the imperial examinations for generations, and three generations have persisted in taking fifty provincial examinations, they can still maintain half of the Suzhou literary world. They rely on their acumen and judgment in the social field!

Official Lin couldn't help but sigh. In the words of Chicken Soup Wen Pian Tang, this means that vision determines the upper limit.

In contrast, Feng Menglong was also a 16-year-old "genius boy", and his father, Dr. Feng, did not have this awareness.

It can be seen from this why in the original history, the development paths of Feng Menglong and Wen Zhenmeng were so different.

After everything was prepared and Feng Shike had communicated with Songjiang Mansion, Lin Daguan and his crew set off on the Divine Power Fiery Water.

Today, Songjiang Prefecture has three counties, Huating County and Shanghai County, which are traditional strong counties, as well as Qingpu County, which was newly established during the Jiajing period and reestablished in the early Wanli year.

Although most of the projects are within Shanghai County, Lin Tailai plans to visit mainly in Huating County.

First, Huating County is the capital of Songjiang Prefecture and the main county of Songjiang Prefecture; second, the prominent families in Huating County of Songjiang Prefecture are the most powerful, and their influence is enough to cover the entire Songjiang Prefecture.

Feng Shi can arrange everything, and Lin Daguan doesn't worry much.

Just when passing by Qingpu County, Lin Daguan said inexplicably: "In the future, Hengtang College can open a branch in Qingpu County, and it will be called Qingpu Class."

After finishing speaking, Lin Daguan laughed a few times in amusement, but the entourage on his left and right had no idea what the point of his laughter was, so they could only giggle on the surface.

After entering Huating County, Feng Shike reported the finalized itinerary plan to Lin Daguan like a secretary-general.

"After entering Songjiang Prefecture, go to Fu Xue Ming Lun Hall"

"Wait!" Lin Tailai raised his hand to interrupt, "My visit to Songjiang Prefecture this time is a pragmatic trip, and the focus of my work is on prominent township officials.

Although the government education is very important to the local area, does it have any practical significance for me to go to the government school? "

Feng Shike explained: “The school was originally intended to be a place for moral enlightenment, but what was special about our dynasty was that the school system was completely tied to the imperial examination system.

Therefore, the phenomenon of scholars using schools to gather together arose. In recent decades, the meaning of schools has gradually changed.

After all, the number of scholars is increasing, but the channels for advancement are still limited. Therefore, scholars can only devote more energy and enthusiasm to local affairs.

In our Songjiang Prefecture, Fuxue Minglun Hall is a place where local scholars actively participate in local affairs, and it is also the center of public opinion on local affairs. "

After listening to Feng Shike's explanation, Lin Daguan asked: "Why is this not the case in Suzhou?

I really haven’t seen many scholars participating in and handling local affairs in Suzhou Fuxue. "

Feng Shike: ""

Regarding the reason why Suzhou Fuxue has no local affairs processing function, why don’t you, Lin Tailai, look in the mirror?

Local affairs in Suzhou City are firmly controlled by your Lin Group in all aspects, and others are even involved!

"I have no doubts about going to Songjiang Mansion to study. You can continue talking!" Lin Tailai urged.

Feng Shike then reported: "As for the official families in Songjiang Prefecture, the first person to contact must be Taishi Xu's family."

Xu Taishi's family is the Xu family of Xu Jie, the original chief assistant. After Xu Jie passed away six years ago, he was posthumously awarded the title of Taishi by the imperial court.

Therefore, at this time, the people of Songjiang Mansion began to call Xu Jie as Taishi Xu, and the Xu Mansion was also respectfully called Taishi Mansion verbally.

Today, the Xu family is still the largest family in Songjiang Prefecture, bar none.

Feng Shike said: "Your friendship with the Xu family is also well established. After all, when you were in the capital, you avenged Taishi Xu's great-grandson."

What is said here is that when Xu Youqing, the great-grandson of Xu Jie, was a minor official in Enyin, the capital, he was bullied by Xing Shangzhi, the steward of Zhang Jing, the admiral of Dongchang.

Xu Jie had passed away at that time, and Xu Jie's eldest son and eldest grandson had already served in their hometown, but Xu Youqing, his great-grandson, was just a young official with a strong sense of kindness, and his connections could not help Zhang Jing, the admiral of Dongchang.

??????55.??????

Then Lin Tailai directly killed Xing Shangzhi in the "Night of Mingdi" in the first half of this year to avenge Xu Youqing and help the Xu family regain their face.

Although Lin Tailai was asking Xu Youqing to help contact Wang Yi'e, the Minister of War, but isn't friendship only forged through mutual help?

Feng Shike added: "Also, the Xu family is planning to move Taishi Xu's Chong'enfang, and would like to ask you to preside over the ceremony and compose poems to commemorate it.

This is treating you as a top celebrity. Not everyone is qualified to be treated with such courtesy by Taishi Xu's family. "

Seeing Feng Shike's expression of extreme envy and admiration for the Xu family, Lin Daguan was very dissatisfied.

After returning to Songjiang Mansion, Feng Shike's attitude was a bit inappropriate.

Thinking of this, Lin Daguan snorted coldly: "What's so great about being posthumously awarded the title of Grand Master? I have also been called a Grand Master before!

Besides, it is their Xu family’s honor to give them the platform as the Nine Yuan True Immortal, not mine! "

"Ah, yes, everything you said is right!" Feng Shike was experienced in the world and was very considerate of young people's tempers.

Then he continued: "The second person we must contact is the Gu family in Chedun, the eastern suburbs of Fucheng."

Chedun and the Gu family? Lin Tailai, who loved reading movies in his previous life, was only familiar with the first two words, but not the last two words.

The most famous Gu family in Jiangnan are all in Kunshan. The Gu family in Chedun has never been seen in historical materials.

"What kind of big shot of third rank or above has come out of this Gu family? Is it worthy of me to meet him in the second place?" Lin Tailai felt that he had encountered a blind spot in knowledge.

Feng Shike replied: "There were two Jinshis in the previous generation, and they were in charge of the Nanjing Criminal Department. The current head of the family is just a supervisor."

Lin Daguan felt that he had discovered the truth: "So the Gu family are relatives? Or are they the Chedun film and television tycoons?"

It's a pity that the second half of the joke is so cold that no one can understand it in this era.

Feng Shike quickly replied: "Gu Zhengxin, the current head of the Gu family, once did something big back then!

He lamented that the people of Songjiang Prefecture were heavily taxed, so he donated 100,000 taels to purchase tens of thousands of acres of land in various counties of Songjiang Prefecture, and then used it as charity land!

And all the proceeds from the righteous fields are used to help the people offset taxes, so as to reduce the burden on the people in the government! "

Damn it! Lin Daguan, who had seen all the prosperity of the world, was also shocked. This was a great thing.

He, Lin Tailai, only knew how to work hard in the club back then, and he had never thought of such a way to control the place!

Of course, it's useless to know because he doesn't have one hundred thousand taels of silver.

The Gu family is really rich! He, Lin Tailai, can't even get 100,000 in cash without resorting to borrowing and misappropriation!

Feng Shike felt that it was not easy to impress Lin Tailai once, and said with a smile: "So Chedun and the Gu family are very important, but the Gu family also wants something from you.

He hopes that you can help their Gu family become famous, a literary name like the Scholarly Family. "

Official Lin frowned slightly and said a little unhappily: "The Xu family asked me to stand up, and the Gu family wants to use me to become famous. I feel like my reputation is being bullied!

You know, in the past few years, I have always been the one trying to gain reputation by trying to gain my reputation! "

Feng Shike said with relief: "Today is different from the past, just get used to it! At least you still have the value of being rubbed."

"Is there anyone else?" Lin Daguan asked again without worrying about whether he was being rubbed.

Feng Shike continued: "The third person who must be contacted is Lin Jingyang, the old lady of the Lin family.

This man reached the third rank of Nanjing Taipu Temple Minister. After returning to his hometown, he was enthusiastic about public welfare and actively participated in local affairs. He was very influential. "

Lin Daguan immediately understood that this was an old cadre who always wanted to use his spare energy after retirement.

Feng Shike warned: "You must not underestimate Taigong Lin. Back then, there was a governor who wanted to collect one tael of silver for every seventy acres in Songjiang Prefecture, but he gave up due to the opposition led by Taigong Lin.

Another time, the imperial court considered changing Jinshanwei in Songjiang Prefecture to Jinshan Prefecture.

Lin Taigong believed that this would lead to an increase in the number of yamen and officials, which would increase the burden on the people of the government, and he fiercely opposed it. In the end, the matter of Jinshan Wei's change to the state was abandoned.

I heard that Taigong Lin also opposed the dredging project of the old Wusong River this time. "

Retired veteran cadres who are always opposed? Lin Tailai sneered: "It doesn't matter if he opposes, the key is whether he simply opposes, or does he want to gain benefits through opposition?"

"How can outsiders know?" Feng Shike couldn't say.

Lin Tailai turned to his left and right guardian Zhang brothers and ordered: "Immediately send someone to the residence of Taigong Lin to survey the terrain and the layout of his house near his home!"

Feng Shike was shocked and stopped him quickly: "No! Don't! Taigong Lin and Xu Fan, the eldest son of Taishi Xu, are related to each other. In other words, his only son married Taishi Xu's granddaughter!"

For people like this who have a strong network of connections, we cannot engage in beheading operations or physical removal!

After thinking about it for a while, Officer Lin still ordered his subordinates: "Go and survey first, so that you are prepared!"

Even if you hold a carrot in one hand, you can't put down the stick with the other hand.
