This book is set during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty and focuses on the reform process of official Shen Yanzhi. When the Zhejiang Salt Tax Deficit Case broke out, Shen Yanzhi conducted an in-depth investigation. He not only uncovered the shocking shady story of salt merchant Wang Hu's liaison with Japanese pirates and bribery of the Yan Party, but also exposed the corruption crimes committed by Yan Song and his son and harmed the country, and finally brought all the criminals to justice.
Later, Shen Yanzhi discovered that land annexation at the grassroots level was serious, and bad policies such as "paying taxes without land" and "spreading acres of land" were rampant, making the people miserable. He fought against all opinions to implement land clearing in the province. In the face of numerous crises such as joint obstruction by the gentry and anonymous intimidation, he always adhered to his original intention, established a standardized clearing process, innovated the tax system reform, and promoted the implementation of the "One Whip Law" pilot.
From investigating corruption and fighting against Japanese invaders to clearing land and promoting reforms, Shen Yanzhi used his upright character and excellent governance wisdom to resolve the contradiction between imperial power and people's livelihood, injecting vitality into the Ming Dynasty. He vividly reproduced the official ecology and people's lives in the Ming Dynasty, and composed a song of family and country that petitioned for orders for the people and was determined to innovate.
