In a pavilion near Haizhou Bay, several scribes with light robes and slow belts were all placed on the second floor of the pavilion. On the first floor of the pavilion, they were all brought by people, either warming wine, roasting meat, or cutting fish sashimi. They kept delivering these fresh foods. There were also string music from silk and bamboo on the second floor of the pavilion. A few old scribes sat next to them, picking up food and pouring wine. Several other female scribes were singing Su Dongpo's famous work "The Head of Water Melody. When will the Moon Come?"

This scene is really a scene of corrupt and degenerate feudalism.

However, the scholars in the pavilion were all famous scholars with excellent official reputations. They were Su Shi, Su Che's brothers, Zeng Zhao, the magistrate of Haizhou, and Su Dongpo's four disciples, Chen Shidao, Li Xiao, Li Xi and Dong Rong.

Su Dongpo and the others knew that Wu Haogu and Huang Tingjian were going to Haizhou recently, and Wu Haogu and Huang Tingjian came out of Yuzhou Island both had official positions. Although they took leave this time, they still used post tickets (that was the reward for Wu Haogu’s horse offering), so a post station reported to Haizhou. Zeng Zhao calculated the date and informed Su Shi and Su Zhe on Yuzhou Island.

Er Su was a little panicked when he stayed on the island, so he simply brought four disciples to Qushan County. Zeng Zhaoze served in Wangxian Pavilion outside Qushan County and used official crafts to entertain the women who were singing and dancing to entertain and accompanying the wine. They were all miserable Haizhou officials.

Although Zeng Zhao was in Haizhou, he had always been paying attention to the changes in the city. Naturally, he also heard that Wu Haogu's name "evil Confucianism" was a comment made by Hou Zhongliang to Wu Haogu.

It probably means the bad guys among great Confucians... People are definitely bad, and the unscrupulous businessman is lucky! But Confucians are also great, because Wu Haogu could accurately understand Confucius's way and know that Confucius' way is a problem, not an ultimate answer!

In addition, Wu Haogu also gave a way to realize Confucian political ambitions, that is, to realize the "world is for the public, select the wise and capable". He also put forward the ideal of "world preaching", to imitate the ancestors and spread Confucian truth to the outside world.

Moreover, Wu Haogu not only proposed the route and ideals, but also spent money and effort to realize it, which greatly exceeded those Confucian scholars who were not even talking about empty talk.

Therefore, all great scholars now recognize Wu Haogu. However, some scholars who have not yet reached the level of great scholars are very disdainful of Wu Dalang, who was a businessman, and followed Hou Zhongliang to cheer, calling Wu Haogu a scum of the Confucian school...

"…Uncle Cheng Zheng's disciples are all corrupt scholars, and now another evil scholar has emerged..."

Su Dongpo gently shook a small porcelain wine glass in his hand, "It seems that my Confucian Sect will eventually lead to a breakthrough and then establish!"

"Breaking and standing?" Zeng Zhao, who had a gray beard with a big beard with high cheekbones and dark skin, frowned and asked, "Does Wu Haogu?"

"Isn't Uncle Cheng Zheng a stolen person in this Confucian change?" Su Dongpo asked with a smile, "Although the Neo-Confucianism he summarized... was exposed by the 'evil Confucianism', the 'evil Confucianism' gave Neo-Confucianism a chance to carry forward."

"Promote?" Zeng Zhao asked, "How to carry forward?"

"It's been spread outside!" Su Che said, "Uncle Zheng's approach is to change learning into teaching, take the principles of heaven as gods and Buddhas, and to enter the principles of heaven from morality, and to produce all things from Taoist Tai Chi Yin and Yang. Now there is a Pure Land and a Avici Hell."

Su Che is indeed a scholar of a generation. He has a very thorough understanding of Cheng Yi's plan and understands the reason for the establishment of Neo-Confucianism. In fact, the father and son of the Su family also want to integrate the three religions (Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism), but their brain-study ability is not as good as Cheng Yi's school. In other words, the scholar of the Su family cannot reach the state of changing Confucianism into famous religion like Cheng Yi. In their minds, they finally adhere to the true nature of Confucianism.

And Cheng Yi’s line... is actually no longer a true Confucianism!

However, when the famous teachings were spread, Neo-Confucianism was more useful than the true Confucianism. After all, there are many ignorant women and children among the four barbarians! The barbarian who knows that "the great way cannot be heard, can only be pursued" is definitely not a barbarian, but a knowledgeable and thoughtful barbarian, and is definitely not the object of the spread of famous teachings.

Therefore, once the Famous Church establishes the goal of external genre, Neo-Confucianism will inevitably become the main body of external genre. Otherwise, what will be passed on? Do you tell the barbarians to believe in science and oppose feudal superstition?

Therefore, the external biography of Confucianism that Wu Haogu strongly promoted will inevitably lead to the early prosperity of Neo-Confucianism, which is probably unexpected by Wu Haogu!

In Haizhou, there was another thing that Wu Haogu, the evil scholar, had unexpectedly expected, that was that his distant seventh uncle Wu Chengchang led a group of rural bullies from Baiboyimen to contract land.

Well, this is the main reason why Wu Chengchang traveled all the way to Haizhou and said bad things about his father is just by the way.

"Ah?" Wu Haogu was resting in Linhai Village and heard Wu Chengchang and Ximen Qing mention this matter.

"Uncle Qi, do you have to contract thousands of acres of paddy fields?" Wu Haogu asked, "Can you grow so many?"

"How could I not grow it?" Wu Chengchang smiled and pointed at his nose and said, "Look at me, I should know that I am facing the loess and facing the sky... My father knew that I had been studying hard, and I was not in charge of farming at home? That was the same as thousands of people who farmed together!"

Baibo Yimenwu is not the Yimen who collects rent, but the Yimen who farms... Nearly 100,000 acres of land, including dry land, paddy fields (very few), terraced fields, and rotten fields filled with stones, all have to be arranged. The skill in this is not easier than reading the Five Classics to the window.

In the words of Jiang Taigong, this old man (he is only over 30 years old) is a "big farmer". Although Bai Bo Yimen Wu is still in decline under his leadership, he must not think that he cannot farm.

There are many reasons for the decline of the Baibo Yimen Wu. The population is growing more and more numerous but the land cannot increase, and the "big pot rice system" of Yimen are all big pits.

Wu Chengchang, who has been in charge of Baibo Yimen Martial Arts for many years, knows better than anyone else that Baibo Yimen Martial Arts has no way out! Even if he has an old Jinshi and a rich relative of the Kaifeng Wu family can support him, it cannot change the trend of family decline.

Moreover, even if the Baibo Yimen can maintain it, Wu Chengchang's own interests cannot be guaranteed in the Baibo Yimen Wu's pit.

Because the pride of the Yisect is ultimately the talented people who are likely to be a high school Jinshi, rather than a "big farmer" like Wu Chengchang.

Therefore, the signs of the revival of the Baibo Wu family as a Jinshi in Wu Zhongyi’s high school will not only not bring benefits to Wu Chengchang, especially when Wu Zhongyi may have a son in old age, but will also reduce Wu Chengchang’s status in the family.

Because the temporary revival of the Baibo Yimen Wu will allow more talented men from the martial arts family to receive a good education, and then go to the imperial examination to participate in the imperial examination... they are the proud sons!

By then, Wu Chengchang, the old farmer, will become less and less popular!

So he had the idea of ​​bringing a group of "big farmers" from his tribe to Haizhou to help Wuhao's ancient farming.

"There are customers growing the 60,000 acres of land now?" Wu Haogu asked Ximen Qing.

Ximen Qing nodded and said, "If you want to withdraw your tenant, you will have to spend a lot of money... Most tenants have given a deposit. Although the Wu family collects the deposit, we should refund the deposit as usual."

In most cases, land transactions in the Song Dynasty were sold for ownership, so when the land had been rented out, there was no need to refund the tenant. The deposit of the tenant was actually included in the land price. If the land without a deposit was collected, the price would be a little more expensive than the land with a deposit.

"Brother, you have to help me!" Wu Chengchang looked at Wu Haogu pitifully, and two lines of tears suddenly flowed down, "Now my father has a little mother, and he is about to give birth to a son again, and he doesn't want me, the old son... I don't know how to study, so I will make land. By the way, I am still the manager of Bai Bowu's family. If you want to help me, I will allocate the strongest Dingkou in the family to Haizhou."

He paused and stretched out three fingers: "Give me 3,000 acres of continuous paddy fields, and I will give me 3 years of rent. I will borrow 5,000 yuan in more money. How about I repay you 10,000 yuan in three years?"

Wu Chengchang is really sure! These days he was in Haizhou. In addition to complaining to Ximen Qing about his own father, he was wandering around and inspecting the more than 60,000 acres of paddy fields in the Wu family in Haizhou.

That's all good fields! The fields in Baibo, Luoyang are incomparable at all. However, those fields were not well organized and water conservancy was not repaired much (who would buy them one by one?), and there are many places where mulberry trees, tea trees, and fruit trees can be planted (the belongings of those places are unknown), and there are not even a few water trucks, so there is room for improvement!

Wu Haogu looked at Ximen Qing again. Ximen Qing frowned and thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Officials, it is necessary to withdraw some tenants... Otherwise, the rest is not easy to fiddle with, so it is better to rent it to Uncle Qi 3,000 acres."

Wu Haogu gave more than 60,000 acres of Haizhou to Ximen Qing to manage it to "maintain customers". Paddy fields can support people than dry land, and 60,000 acres can support 1,500-2,000 households. However, what Wu Haogu wants to raise is a strong customer, and each can produce at least one guaranteed person.

Therefore, it is necessary to withdraw some of the tenants... If you want to rent 3,000 acres of land to Wu Chengchang, it is just to withdraw more tenants.

"Okay!" Wu Haogu thought for a while and nodded, "Uncle Qi, I can promise you. But I said that it was the first thing I said, and I must talk about business in business. If you can't afford ten thousand coins in three years, then I don't recognize you, Uncle Qi!"

"Okay! One word is determined!"

While the uncle and nephew of the Wu family were discussing business, the voice of the Arhat maid suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, Mr. Huang has rested. Please prepare and visit the state yamen together."
