Chapter 801 But do good deeds, don't ask about the future

Guide to the government of the German government.

The officials below were all sweating.

Because the eldest master and the second master had a dispute again.

In the past, when Su Yan sat in the Guide Mansion, he had always been a word, but now that Lin Yanchao knows the same thing, there is finally someone to object.

But seeing Lin Yanchao said: "I thought that this time the chaotic people who followed the thieves had to be coerced by the thieves, and they were also forced by hunger and cold, if they were suppressed by thunder, I am afraid they would lose the hearts of the people." It is better to give amnesty to the people, and those who return to the land do not ask, and those who re-offend will be pardoned, thinking that it is a policy of leniency. ”

Su Yan said unhappily: "Sima has given birth to the benevolence of a woman again, this chaotic people will not be investigated, and they will rebel again in the future, how is it good, the only way is to kill a hundred and deter these small people." ”

After Lin Yanchao finished speaking, the next head of the mansion patrol was also embarrassed and said: "Master Futai, this time the rebellion and rebellion of the people involves a lot, if you forcibly go to the people to arrest it, I am afraid it will provoke a civil uprising." ”

Su Yan reprimanded: "That's your business, not the matter that this government cares about." ”

The patrol was embarrassed and said: "Lord Nafutai, I implore you to mobilize the officers and soldiers to assist in the arrest and arrest, so as not to disturb the people's livelihood." He asked the government to allocate 100 officers and soldiers to help. ”

Su Yan's eyes widened and said: "Patrol Lu, tell you not to settle accounts with this mansion, otherwise this mansion will find you to settle accounts in the future!" ”

At the moment, Lu Xun was sweating profusely, and the rest of the officials seemed to be breathing badly in the main hall just now, and only stood there outside the hall for a long breath.

Lin Yanchao in the hall shook his head, he was under Su Yan and others as the second official, it was really a complete decoration.

However, why did Lin Yanchao speak out against it even though he knew that his opposition was invalid, of course, it was to leave a way out for himself.

In case Su Yan dies in the future, it will provoke a popular uprising again. Lin Yanchao will also be exempted from responsibility because he said this sentence when he was discussing politics. If Lin Yanchao doesn't say a word, it will be like acquiescing in this matter, and in the future, the Guide Mansion will stir up a civil uprising for the second time, and as a second official, he will have to take the blame with Su Yan again.

Lin Yanchao really didn't want to retreat from the city again, his life couldn't always be so big.

Therefore, it is better to offend Su Yan in the court, but also to express his opinions clearly, otherwise he will be like the other three general sentences, and he and Su Yan will become grasshoppers on the same rope.

But Su Yan has never heard a word of the suggestions he has made since he became an official in the Defu Mansion, and his power is not even as good as the three general judgments, and he at least has the power to divide the affairs in his hands, which makes Lin Yanchao inevitably unhappy.

A husband can't be without power for a day!

Lin Yanchao sighed in his heart, and was about to get up, when Su Yan said on the side: "Lin Sima, please stay." ”

Lin Yanchao stopped, and Su Yan said softly: "Lin Sima is sitting here." ”

Lin Yanchao nodded, sat down next to Su Yan's case and asked, "What are the instructions of the Futai?" ”

Both of them have a very tacit understanding, just now there was a dispute in the court, and it is still okay for everyone to have a personal relationship, and it can be regarded as not 'bad for business'.

Su Yan took two ingots of silver from the box and put them on the case, Lin Yanchao saw that these two ingots of silver were about the same size as the treasury silver, but the only thing was that there was no mark of the treasury on the silver ingots.

Su Yan said: "Sima must not be rich when he first arrives. ”

"Futai ......"

Su Yan smiled and said: "Lin Sima seems to have misunderstood, this mansion is an honest official, how can he be a bribe." This is two hundred taels of envy silver, Sima is the same as the government, and one thousand two hundred taels can be spent from the consumption of silver a year. ”

What is Silver?

The term has only been around for a short time.

But when it comes to envy, you know.

This is a bad rule for thousands of years, in the Han Dynasty, every stone of grain paid, the officials said that in order to avoid being stolen by the finch and rat to eat and lose, let the common people add two buckets, these two buckets are called finch and rat consumption.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty and the middle of the Ming Dynasty, when the people paid for grain, there was a drenching kick.

What is a drenched kick?

That is, when the officials collect grain, they use the Hu to load the grain, and the common people fill the Hu with the grain.

The official kicked Hu, and the grain on the top of the hun fell outside the hu, and then the grain that fell out of the hu went to the official.

In addition, there are various names such as downwind rice, raised rice, rat consumption rice, etc.

Well, now Zhang Juzheng is engaged in a whip change, and the common people do not pay rice and grain, but pay silver.

Zhang Juzheng thought that the officials had no way to engage in the trick of drenching and kicking, but he didn't expect that the wisdom of officials' corruption was infinite.

In addition to the actual fire consumption, the rest of the fire consumption levied by the government and one county is divided by the officials themselves.

Generally, fire consumption is two to fifty percent of the regular taxes paid by the common people, whether it is two or five, one looks at the local wealth and poverty, and the other depends on the conscience of officials.

In the face of this consumption of envy silver, Lin Yanchao did not take it.

First of all, is this corruption? Count, this is Lin Yanchao's income outside of his official salary.

But can this really be considered corruption? , The meager official income of the officials of the Ming Dynasty is well known, if Lin Yanchao really relies on the official salary, he can only barely eat and drink with his family, as for the master, the entourage, and the officialdom is impossible to talk about.

Therefore, the officials all acquiesced to the income of consuming envy of silver, and as officials in the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that there are few people who do not collect envy of silver.

Even the unspoken rule of consuming envy silver, in the Qing Dynasty, the imperial court also legalized him.

This is the famous system of returning fire consumption to the public and raising incorruptible silver. That is, the imperial court will consume envy silver, regard it as a positive tax, set a standard, and prohibit officials from collecting it indiscriminately. Then a part of the collected envy silver was distributed as the official maintenance silver, and the remaining part was called the envy surplus and handed over to the feudal treasury.

The reason why Lin Yanchao hesitated was not whether to accept these two ingots of silver, but because he was thinking about the intention behind Su Yan.

Lin Yanchao said: "Isn't this envy silver distributed by the household?" How can Lao Futai personally send it, this official really doesn't dare to be it. ”

Su Yan saw through Lin Yanchao's intentions after seeing through his move, and said with a smile: "Lin Sima knows that he is in charge of the river work, and the clan has already made a decision. ”

Lin Yanchao said in his heart that Su Yan really had someone in the domain, and he knew in advance that the official document of the domain had not been moved down.

Su Yan said: "It is a routine for the feudal division to return to virtue and know that the river workers are in charge, and it is not ordinary and cannot be changed. ”

Lin Yanchao knew that Su Yan must squeeze himself into the position of Guan He Tongzhi, lest he be in charge of the government in the future, and Lin Yanchao would oppose it.

Lin Yanchao asked, "What about the invitation to set up a hall?" ”

Su Yan said expressionlessly: "The feudal division let the mansion decide for itself. ”

Lin Yanchao smiled in his heart when he heard this, and when the political secretary said this, he acquiesced. Of course, this matter made Su Yan very unhappy.

But seeing Su Yan said: "The branch hall looks at things, so there are two yamen, as the so-called sky has no two days, and the people have no two masters, this government thinks this move is inappropriate." ”

Lin Yanchao said in his heart, Su Yan is so big, the prefect of this mansion actually gave you the emperor's foot.

"If Lin Sima does not divide the hall to look at things, then there will always be a place for Sima to do things in this mansion, and this envy of the silver mansion can be the master, and Sima will be increased to two thousand taels a year. If Lin Sima insists on his own opinion, that is, he wants to start anew, although the government does not approve, but he can only wish Sima to do good things, and do not ask about the future.
