Chapter 346 Reconstruction Conference

Zheng Yongtu, the governor of Cangzhou, has introduced his historical experience. Now that he has returned to Cangzhou to rebuild the King Kong Temple, the reconstruction conference of the King Kong Temple is in progress. Why should Zheng Yongtu rebuild the King Kong Temple? In fact, there are some reasons. Cangzhou has been a prosperous town since ancient times, not only a military fortress, but also an important city in Zhili, so it tends to build more. There is such a construction tendency, so no matter who is in power, Cangzhou is a prosperous place. Then Li Zhe has Death, Mei Youqian, the former magistrate, did not order to deal with it. Zheng Yongtu came to Cangzhou and saw that there were many temples here, and the incense was very strong. When he came here, he inquired about it. The King Kong Temple was destroyed by a fire because of Li Zhe. Zheng Yongtu felt very sorry! But you can't delay the business because of this matter. The first thing he did when he came to Cangzhou was to rectify the governance of officials. First, he gathered all the local officials and everyone began to discuss. By the way, he also visited a lot of places in plain clothes. The so-called three fires of new officials took office is true at all. When he comes, he has to kill chickens first. He set an example, killed a hundred, and investigated some corrupt officials. He had the right to handle this matter. After a period of time, Zheng Yongtu's reputation spread in Cangzhou City. People said that this Master Zheng was a good official for the people, so they all supported him. Zheng Yongtu was not so excited and calm. Because he knows that as long as the people say good things, it is a good thing to do, and it is not a good thing to do what the people don't agree with, so he understands this truth very well. As for the reconstruction of the King Kong Temple this time, he also solicited public opinion, and the people feel sorry for the Great Fire. Later, according to the opinions of the people, Zheng Yongtu held a meeting with officials in Cangzhou and finally decided to rebuild the King Kong Temple, so this move is naturally not small, because Zheng Yongtu knew through a series of investigations that the King Kong Temple was the largest ancient temple in Cangzhou. In the past, the incense was extremely strong, but now it does not exist, making The locals in Cangzhou are also very frustrated. In addition, many tourists from other places are also very disappointed. This measure is actually developing the local economy, so Zheng Yongtu decided to rebuild the King Kong Temple. So such a huge project is naturally undertaken by the direct supervision of the government, and the local rich businessmen are also generous. Of course, there are also rich businessmen who don't care about this matter at all. It's impossible to think about the interests of the left-hand fisherman. Zheng Yongtu explored and negotiated again and again. In the end, these people saw that Zheng Yongtu was not easy to deal with, so they agreed to take out the money. In fact, the government's own money was taken by Li Zhe. The treasury has long been empty. In this way, not to mention rebuilding the King Kong Temple, you can't afford to repair several bridges casually, so it's very difficult! With such enthusiastic donations from these rich businessmen, the motivation came, and the money also came. Finally, he collected 800,000 taels of silver. Zheng Yongtu carefully calculated that the cost of rebuilding the King Kong Temple must be saved. Otherwise, these 800,000 taels of silver would be fleeting and could not be careless at all. Finally, Zheng Yongtu and all the buildings The construction talents continued to negotiate together, and finally reduced the cost to a minimum of 500,000 taels of silver, so the remaining 300,000 taels of silver as the inventory of the treasury, who knows where to need money! So 500,000 taels of silver is enough? If it is calculated according to such a huge project, it is not enough. It is just that people eat horses, and the daily cost of people is a high number! What's more? Zheng Yongtu had a way. In Cangzhou, that was in power, that is, when Li Zhe was in power, it was very chaotic. Many innocent people were sentenced to death or could not be released from prison for life. Zheng Yongtu investigated a lot and found that some of these people actually had minor problems and were caught by Li Zhe to make mistakes and brought in. If the case is overturned now, how much effort will it really take? Therefore, Zheng Yongtu decided to give these prisoners a chance to provide free labor and hand over the task of rebuilding the King Kong Temple to them, and promise to pardon them all innocence after reconstruction! As soon as the news came out, the whole city was shocked. When the news was transmitted to the cell, these people were very happy. They all knelt down to thank God and thank the new magistrate Zheng Yongtu. In this way, the cost was relatively low, but the food expenses were still needed. The prisoners were also human and worked every day. I have to eat. Zheng Yongtu thought, how can this cost be reduced or not? Later, Zheng Yongtu came up with a way and decided to draw an area after the reconstruction of the King Kong Temple as a special food area. If anyone can provide free food support during the reconstruction, then after the reconstruction, this area is also known as a restaurant in a prime location, all of which he controls. This is also to complete the current task with the help of future promises. Even so, many rich people are willing to do so. Although they are now paying their own money, the money earned in the future is several times or even more than ten times or dozens of times more likely. Naturally, this needs to be written with the government as evidence! This problem has also been solved. Zheng Yongtu is really not simple. After thinking about it, he controlled all the money that should be controlled. Naturally, the government can't let go of this main economic lifeline, that is, the material of basic construction. Finally, he considered who can run this huge King Kong Temple after the reconstruction. It's really big! Finally, it was decided to pass the selection and finally decide who would be the abbot of the King Kong Temple, so there are many conditions. First, it must be a highly valued monk, second, good martial arts, and so on. Wouldn't the common people suffer losses? No, there is a rule that common people can also participate in this competition, but after the final victory, they must convert to Buddhism. After learning, they can serve as abbot, so today they not only say a few words casually, but also have to compete in civil and martial arts!
