The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism
Chapter 920 Killing Three Birds with One Stone
Chapter 920 If you don’t see the rabbit, don’t let the eagle fly.
The Literary Academy in Ning'an County is a larger building complex than the county government office, and this is the case everywhere in the human race, because the Literary Academy not only has a holy temple, which is responsible for various sacrificial ceremonies, but also has tens of thousands of examination rooms, as well as schools and residences. .
The square in front of the temple is very wide and can accommodate more than 100,000 people.
Starting from early morning, scholars from all over Ning'an County came in one after another. More than 60,000 people from Mengtong to Jinshi came. There were also many non-scholars standing outside the liberal arts academy, hoping to gain some talent by listening to Fang Yun's lectures.
The group of people at the entrance of the liberal arts college was the most special. There were a large number of women standing there, and every woman had a big belly. Some women were chanting silently.
"Please ask Saint Fang Xu to bless me and give birth to a son who can become a master of Juren and bring glory to my ancestors."
"Sage Fang Xu has mercy and bless me to have a son who is the number one scholar!"
Around these pregnant women, there are many married women. Like the pregnant women, they also come to get their talents, hoping that the children they will give birth to will be smarter in the future.
Around the married woman, there were many parents with children no older than five or six years old, and some even held babies a few months old. They have not yet officially entered elementary school, but in the opinion of their parents, being able to hear Xu Sheng's lectures is of great help to them.
Fang's luck has not yet arrived, and everyone is talking in low voices.
"I heard that food prices have skyrocketed today!"
"It's like this during lean times. My family has already bought 400 kilograms of grain, which is enough to eat until the winter wheat matures."
"Your family bought it, but mine didn't. In Ning'an City, there are at least tens of thousands of families who only buy food for more than ten days at a time. We are not as rich as you!"
"Don't worry, no matter how powerful those grain dealers are, they can't beat Fang Xusheng's official authority! As long as Fang Xusheng gives the order, the grain shops will definitely reduce their prices."
"Those small grain shops are just that. How can any of the big grain shops be easy to get along with? They are either wealthy or aristocratic families. Even the court can't do anything to them."
"Stop arguing, the time is coming, and Fang Xusheng will give a lecture soon. Let's talk about food prices after the lecture is over!"
Fang Xusheng was walking in the academy, but he was thinking about the price of food.
"It's easy to solve the food price problem and it's easy to help the victims, but it's difficult to ensure that the rating doesn't drop during the solution process." Fang Yun thought as he walked away.
Ao Huang said in a low voice: "If you are lucky, it is better to kill the fish and break the net. You incite the people to rob the big households. Anyway, your people's livelihood cannot be high anymore, so you might as well let those grain stores suffer as well."
Fang Yun shook his head and said: "That's nonsense. Mobilizing the people has been the most taboo thing in all countries since ancient times. Back then, an elder was killed in a battle with the barbarians, and his faction was immediately attacked by hostile factions. One of them The nephew of the elder is Hanlin, who serves as the state pastor and is in charge of the state. In the end, he tried his best to use the people to build momentum, hoping to gain public support by promoting his political achievements, forcing the cabinet and the royal family to fight for a state prince and cabinet councilor to protect his faction. Unfortunately, he was dismissed by the cabinet and the royal family. After losing his official position, he died of depression within a few years."
Ao Huang said: "Why don't you just let me help the people of Ning'an County in the name of Dragon Palace?"
Fang Yun said: "Even you can think of it, but I, as the county magistrate in charge, can't think of it? It's not that it can't be done, but that this kind of thing cannot be solved with the ability of 'Fang County Magistrate'. According to the usual practice, the rating will be lowered." . Don’t use it until the last moment. If you really can’t think of a better strategy, you can use this method.”
"Oh, yes, it is easy to help the people, but it is too difficult to get the best of both worlds. Couldn't the Holy Court kill Zhibai?" Ao Huang frowned.
"This is Jingguo's internal affairs and a struggle among Jingguo's internal officials. As long as Ji Zhibai doesn't kill me, the Holy Court will naturally not interfere. However, it is not appropriate to mobilize the people, but you can mobilize the scholars to target the grain merchants. What's more, Ning'an County is the pilot site of the Xingdian, and I can crack down on the grain merchants," Fang Yun said.
Ao Huang's eyes lit up and he said: "Yes, what you are talking about...about war?"
“The war of public opinion.”
"Yes, yes..."
Fang Yun soon saw the Temple Square, with a large crowd of people standing in front of it.
Tens of thousands of people looked at Fang Yun.
Fang Yun smiled and nodded. After taking a few steps, a majestic voice descended from the sky, roaring loudly.
"Recently, the barbarians have been mobilizing frequently. They want to invade our Mizhou and deceive the human race to cause trouble to various places. In order to protect the peace of the surrounding areas, I will announce that all areas starting from Ning'an in the north and Yuyang Pass in the south have entered the temporary combat preparation stage. By Ying Yang The army will take over all checkpoints and key points for fifteen days!”
Fang Yun's heart skipped a beat. In Mizhou, there were only a few people who had the power to unleash spring thunder throughout the territory, and there was only one person who could declare military control of the Yingyang Army.
Bachelor of Arts, Cabinet Councilor, General Hou, Marquis of Jingguozhou, General Yingyang, and Zuotong's disciple Lan Xungu.
On the way to the liberal arts college, Fang Yun had already planned to read Lan Xungu's book first to prevent him from assisting the Transshipment Department to block grain transportation. However, he did not expect that Lan Xungu had already made a plan and directly declared a state of war readiness and military control of Qingwu Mansion. .
Qingwu Mansion is under the jurisdiction of Yingyang Army. As long as the governor of the state does not object, Lan Xungu has the right to initiate military control.
"We can only write to the Marshal's Mansion and order Lan Xungu to abandon military control as soon as possible, but the whole process will take at least ten days to resolve. That will be after April. It is too late."
Fang Yun was thinking in his heart when Lan Xungu's voice sounded again.
"In order to resist the barbarians, the Ministry of War has mobilized a large number of soldiers from all over the country. The first batch of one million new soldiers has begun training, and the second batch of one million new soldiers are arriving in Mizhou one after another. They are in urgent need of food and grass, so we will requisition food from all over Qingwu Prefecture. The day before yesterday, grain merchants from all over the country donated food and grass enthusiastically, showing loyalty and righteousness, and setting an example for merchants. In order to prevent the barbarians from destroying military supplies and food and grass, the Yingyang Army will protect grain merchants and grain transportation from all over the country until the end of military control."
Fang Yun was stunned in place, and then looked at Ao Huang. It was obvious that Lan Xungu had already thought of ways to protect the grain store, and Fang Yun's previous plans were all resolved.
"As expected of a university scholar, his methods are amazing." Ao Huang whispered.
Fang Yun was silent. Since Lan Xungu personally said "protecting grain transportation", it means that if it is not the grain from Qingyuan Grain Store, not a single grain can be transported into Ning'an County.
This means that, not to mention that grain stores outside the province cannot sell grain in Ning'an County without Ning'an County grain cards, even if they can sell grain in Ning'an County, the grain will be seized by the Yingyang Army outside Ning'an City.
However, Fang Yun's mouth showed a barely detectable arc, and he smiled and said, "Well, a general under Liu Shan finally jumped out, very good."
Ao Huang complained, "What's good about it? I suspect that it may be Ji Zhibai who came up with the idea, but it is very likely that Lan Xungu laid out the entire Mizhou. When you were studying the forces in Mizhou, you also said that although Lan Xungu was not a famous general, he was also a powerful veteran known for his calmness. Since he personally participated in this "grain disaster", it is impossible for him to give you any chance."
"This is a good thing. I'm not happy if he doesn't leave! Come on, follow me to give a lecture." Fang Yun seemed to be full of strength, and his steps became more determined.
Ao Huang was stunned and was about to laugh, but quickly suppressed the remaining smile. His eyes sparkled and he thought to himself that killing three birds with one stone was a good thing. Fang Yun was not going to release the eagle until he saw the rabbit. Even if he had not thought of a perfect response plan, he should have had some breakthrough.
