Chapter 1019: Congratulations
Outstanding political achievements.
These four words cannot express Liu Jian's mood.
Therefore, he used two political achievements.
But immediately, Liu Jian came back to his senses.
That's not right......
He said solemnly: "This is a big matter, dozens of sergeants, escorting more than 800,000 taels of silver, if there is a loss, what should I do?" And what if...... What should a sergeant do if he is interested in his interests and runs away with money? This is the lifeblood of the country and the foundation of the imperial court. ”
The lifeblood and the roots, there is nothing wrong with what this is saying.
After all, this wealth alone is enough to reverse the financial situation of the entire Ming Dynasty.
It's sad to say it, this folk super-rich person is like a carp crossing the river, but the income of the treasury is shabby.
This is also a stubborn disease in the Ming Dynasty.
The propertied had almost no to pay taxes, but the commoners at the bottom had to bear heavy taxes, which they could maintain when the country was founded, after all, at that time, there were many small families, and few gentry and large families.
But it is precisely because of this privilege that the gentry have more and more land, and their wealth is more and more concentrated, and countless small peasants have gone bankrupt and become vagrants, and as a result, the tax revenue of the state has become less and less, and now, it has reached the point where it is difficult to maintain.
Now, the big guys are all pointing to Dingxing County for the New Year.
Just one county, it's terrible to think about, if there are ten such counties in the Ming Dynasty, the tax and silver can be as much as 10 million, what if there are 100? What about three hundred?
Wang Ao's heart was shocked at this time.
He followed Fang Jifan's 'nonsense', and he didn't think much of Fang Jifan's many ridiculous things, but now that he looks back and thinks about it carefully, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that something is wrong.
Behind the seemingly absurd, to a certain extent, is it really Fang Jifan's absurdity? It's more like there are too many absurd and bizarre things in this world, but it sets off Fang Jifan's normality.
Liu Jian Zhengse said: "Immediately hurry up and go to Dingxing County, let Dingxing County not escort the silver into Beijing for the time being, but nothing will happen, the imperial court should transfer a battalion of people to go." ”
"Liu Gong, transfer troops...... 'M afraid...... His Majesty's will is required. ”
"Then please." Liu Jian's eyes lit up.
The others also danced with their eyebrows, as if it was already the New Year.
Rich people celebrate the New Year every day.
The poor eggs pointed to the two days of the Spring Festival.
Look at that Fang Jifan, I heard that he wanted a cow for a meal, isn't this just celebrating the New Year all day long?
But...... Why is it that no matter what the happy event is, as long as he thinks of Fang Jifan, he suddenly feels bored.
Liu Jian cheered up and waved his sleeves: "See!" ”
"Let's go, see you."
Li Dongyang's heart was put down.
He, who was also the head of the household, suddenly had a terrible thought.
What if the whole world implemented a new tax law?
What if the whole world implemented the new New Deal?
The thought came to me like Pandora's box, a little too much to cover.
Not...... Too presumptuous.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh.
Everyone returned to the Fengtian Temple.
……
Emperor Hongzhi was relieved, and said that his silver was saved.
I almost relented.
I've always been too soft-hearted.
But just when he was just relieved, he looked down at the book on the case, Xiao Jing hurriedly raised his thumb: "Your Majesty's book, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, charming but not vulgar, and has deep attainments, it really has the true biography of Wang Youjun, this king-style calligraphy is like Wang Youjun possessed, and the slave admires it; Admire! ”
Emperor Hongji's face fell.
"I, this is a thin gold body imitating Song Huizong."
Xiao Jing: "......"
Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Xiao Jing with a look of disgust: "What's more, I am only able to write, I am impetuous, how can I be charming and vulgar, and my attainments are very profound?" ”
Xiao Jing: "......"
Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "You, learn from Fang Jifan." ”
Xiao Jing suddenly thought in his heart, he should learn from it, why does that kid always slap on the idea?
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Learn from his loyalty, instead of being in front of me all day, slapping horses without stopping!" ”
Xiao Jing: "......"
A terrible thought popped up in Xiao Jing's heart, has this Fang Jifan's whiskers and horses reached the point of being invisible and untraceable?
Your Majesty, the slave has something to say.
After all, he didn't dare to talk back, and said with a smile: "The crime of death for slaves and maids, I must learn from Fang Duwei in the future." ”
Emperor Hongji's jaw.
But the next moment.
Emperor Hongji's face changed.
He saw that outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the black pressure people were coming towards the Fengtian Temple.
"Here it is again, didn't I say, I have no money, I am very poor, I am full of calculations, and it is only 41,263,221 taels of silver, what are they going to do, do they want to force the palace? I'm not a bully! ”
Although he said this, Emperor Hongzhi was a little panicked in his heart.
He couldn't stand the bitter talk of the ministers, and they all looked sad.
Sure enough, the eunuch came in and reported.
Emperor Hongzhi bit his lip: "Didn't you say that I was tired?" ”
"Yes, they said, there is something important to see."
Emperor Hongzhi sighed bitterly and put aside the pen in his hand: "Announce them in." ”
…………
Liu Jian and others entered the hall, saluted, and shouted long live.
Emperor Hongzhi put his hands behind his back and looked at them with an iron face: "Why are you so hard to force each other, I will say it again, I have never touched ......"
"Your Majesty!" Liu Jian actually interrupted Emperor Hongzhi's words: "Ministers, I ask Your Majesty to give an order." ”
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "What is the purpose?" ”
"Please give an order to your Majesty, transfer a military horse, go to Dingxing County as soon as possible, and escort the money and grain into Beijing!"
Emperor Hongzhi was so surprised that he was almost speechless: "What, the money and grain books from Dingxing County were delivered?" ”
"It's exactly ......" Speaking of this, Li Dongyang couldn't help it, and was moved. Money, money...... Since he has served as the head of the household, he has not had a good life, and today ...... Finally had plenty of money, he said: "This year, Dingxing County paid 820,000 taels of silver, this is an astronomical amount, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, this Ouyang Zhi, is really and amazing talent, it can be said that it is through the heavens and latitudes, there are no ancients before, and there is no one after them." ”
Everyone nodded with smiles on their faces.
Ouyang Zhi is really a talent, steady, loyal, has the style of a general, and acts decisively, but he didn't expect that there would be such achievements in governing the place.
Such a shining pearl, even if it is covered with dust, cannot hide his brilliance.
This person is bound to go down in history in the future and become a famous minister of the Ming Dynasty.
When Emperor Hongji heard this......
He suddenly thought of what Fang Jifan had said to him at the beginning.
Dingxing County ......
All of a sudden, Emperor Hongzhi had a feeling of relief, and he couldn't help but tears in his eyes, after all, he ...... I don't have to worry about the thief.
Eight hundred and twenty thousand taels, just one county, this is definitely not a small amount.
Emperor Hongzhi shook his spirits and said in surprise: "Oh? Is it? Only silver tax? He subconsciously felt that this was not necessarily a good thing, and he had collected too much silver, so he was not expropriating and expropriating: "I have collected so much silver, I am afraid that the people will ......."
"Your Majesty." Li Dongyang shook his head: "The population of Dingxing County has increased by 80,000 households, more than 200,000 people, if it is a wanton expropriation, why are so many displaced people settling down one after another, if the people can't survive, it's too late to escape, how can they have a reason to join in?" ”
Emperor Hongji's eyes lit up.
Really...... It is worthy of Ouyang Zhi.
Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while: "Only collect silver tax, but I am afraid that as the Qing family said, this will prosper industry and commerce, and the people have no intention of farming, will it hurt the peasants?" ”
"Your Majesty......" Li Dongyang couldn't cry or laugh, he felt that his old face was very red, because ...... This is what he said, Emperor Hongzhi is just a parrot: "This year, the grain production of Dingxing County has also increased greatly, compared with other counties, it can be said to be unique!" ”
Emperor Hongji gasped.
Perfect!
It's so beautifully done.
"Your Majesty, Ouyang Zhi is a person who has the talent to be strategic, this person ...... It can be of great use! Liu Jian did not hesitate to praise words.
He even thought that he was getting older, and in three or five years, or ten years, who would be able to replace him?
Thinking about it, Ouyang Zhi, a young man, is enough to take on a big responsibility.
It is necessary for an excellent Zaifu to assist the king in handling national affairs prudently, and it is also natural to recommend talents for the emperor.
In the past, I always felt that this son still needed to be sharpened, but now it seems that the old man is not as good as him.
Wang Ao also said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the future is terrifying, the old minister, I also think that Ouyang Zhi has the magnanimity, wisdom and courage, and has become a pillar." ”
The ministers nodded their heads.
If there is a person above the temple who can get everyone's nod and approval, I want to come...... There is only Ouyang Zhi.
This is like, the aunts of the square dance, they are not used to seeing young people horizontally and vertically, but there is a young man, who is very good at jumping, and he still drills into the square every day, chats and laughs with the aunts, and can also show his singing voice and sing an excellent "The Most Dazzling National Style".
Such a young man, he can go on a blind date 1,095 times a year.
Liu Jian hurriedly presented the book.
Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head and looked carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.
"This is a model of governing the world, I'm afraid that Yao Shun is alive, and under his rule, it can't reach Dingxing County."
What is the ...... It's a bit of an insult to the Holy Emperor.
But...... What does it matter? Not to be more serious, Yao Shun's world, no one has seen it anyway.
In the Fengtian Temple, it suddenly became cheerful.
Emperor Hongzhi then said: "This is the credit of Fang Jifan, I think at the beginning, it was Fang Jifan who asked for a new policy, and I was still wavering at the beginning, so he proposed to let Ouyang Zhi try it, if all the prefectures and counties in the world can be like Dingxing County, then the Ming Dynasty is not far away from the great governance of the world." ”
It's Fang Jifan again.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "Fang Jifan is my son-in-law and the commander of the Ming Dynasty, such a great achievement, I have to reward him this time!" ”
………………
Chapter 6, I'm a little tired, from morning to now, I haven't stopped for a moment, my arms are sore, my waist muscles are sore, but it's ...... There's one more chapter, well, there's really more! Man......
