Chapter 20: Chen Ju's Horse Tongue Battle Group Confucianism (1st Update)

The people who stand at the top of the pyramid will always be the ones with the highest income. In Chen Ying's original workshop, each of the six first-class craftsmen earned 600 yuan per year, the thirteen second-class craftsmen earned 400 yuan per year, and the third-class craftsmen received 47 craftsmen with an annual income of 200 yuan.

Sixty-six of them will receive 18,200 yuan.

The first-class craftsman earns 100 yuan per year, the second-class craftsman earns 80 yuan, and the third-class craftsman earns 50 yuan. The first-class craftsman earns 30 times a year, and the second-class craftsman earns 20 times a year. Third-class craftsmen, the annual salary is only ten.

However, there are more than 4,300 generals and laborers, and the annual income is almost 43,000 yuan, and the gap is not ordinarily small. At this time, Li Yuan felt that Chen Ying's steel industry was a little hot.

It takes more than ten years for a scholar to study hard and work as a magistrate in the palace or in the state and county for a few years before he has the opportunity to be appointed as the county magistrate. However, according to the Qipin County Decree, all the salaries, materials, workers, errand money and various benefits for a year are all added together, and if they are not corrupt and bribed, they can get about 35 yuan, which is about 150,000 yuan in later generations.

This level of income was definitely not low in the Tang Dynasty. is a dignified and upright seven-grade county magistrate, and he is only on par with a first-class craftsman. An illiterate rough man, who has worked diligently in the workshop for three years, as long as he does not make a big mistake, can be promoted to a first-class craftsman, but from the ninth rank of the soldier, if you want to be promoted to the seventh grade of the court, even if every three years is a grind, every evaluation is excellent, every time you can be promoted to a level, but from the ninth grade, to the seventh grade of the court, it takes thirty-three years.

It is also said that the career of many officials will stop at the level of Zhengqipin.

The fact that a craftsman can get so much money, and that they can get their monthly wages when the officials are unable to pay them in full on time, cannot but make the scholars indignant. If these industries are incorporated into the imperial court system, I am afraid that when the time comes, the officials in the palace and various prefectures will definitely be extremely dissatisfied with this and complain a lot.

Chen Ying, in his private capacity, no matter how much salary he gave to the craftsmen, no one would say anything, but as a court, there was a system to be found, what level to enjoy what kind of car, how much money to get, and how much rice grain, this is the rule formed since the Qin and Han dynasties.

Chen Ying can, can the imperial court? Can the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Samurai Tong withstand such pressure of public opinion?

Listening to Chen Ying's eloquent words, the warrior Tong was silent for a long time. Although he is not a family of the world, he knows the power of the family and knows how powerful public opinion is.

Is Yang Guang really mediocre? There will definitely be a conclusion in the future generations, and this girl is a faint king. But Samurai was born in this era, and he knew better. If someone would ask, Wu Shi Tong must have said in his heart: "Yang Guang is a faint king!" ”

But he will definitely add two words in his heart: "weird".

However, because Yang Guang proposed the imperial examination system, used the imperial examination to select officials, and offended all the lords of the world, so overnight, the direction of public opinion changed, and Yang Guang was also a saint of the century, and immediately transformed into a faint monarch.

This is still true for Yang Guang, but does Wu Shi Tong really dare to do this? Once he does this, the whole public opinion will soon turn, and he will bear the brunt of the criticism of the public. 、

Samurai Tong can not care about his reputation, but he can't ignore the consequences. The clan gate lord used public opinion and conspiracy, and the two-pronged approach has already defeated the Great Sui, if it happens again, without the Turks or Xiao Milling, the Tang Dynasty will be finished by itself.

After a long time, Wu Shi Tong looked at Chen Ying and smiled bitterly: "Chen Yuma, I, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, am sitting on top of the accumulated salary." ”

Chen Ying smiled and said: "If it is not Ying Guogong, who is worthy of this great responsibility?" Your Majesty knows the hardships of Ying Guogong, and Your Majesty will not treat Ying Guogong badly. ”

Li Yuan smiled bitterly and waved his hand, stretched out his hand and pointed at Chen Yingdao: "Do you have any good ideas, let's talk about it together." ”

Chen Ying smiled and said: "It's not difficult to say, you can follow the story of the Lord of Su Bai and replace the income with a knight." What people want, but the word rich. Ministers can make them rich, but they can't make them expensive, let them be noble, this is a privilege that only the imperial court has, the former dynasty Yu Wenkai, in fact, can be regarded as a master craftsman, for the way of the official, he is still too far away, but he can still be crowned a duke, ranked in the six ministries of the Ministry of Shangshu, for craftsmen who do not need to socialize, ten times the money is enough to worry about food and clothing, and there is not much meaning in adding two or three hundred runs, it is not as attractive as the title. ”

"The official is the inscription of the country, how can it be lightly awarded!" After hearing this, Li Yuan shook his head and said, "This method is not appropriate!" ”

Chen Ying nodded and said: "The Tang Dynasty established the country with military force and set up twelve military achievements, thanks to this, the Tang Dynasty soldiers sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, went forward one after another, served the court, and were loyal to Your Majesty." Your Majesty, why not create a set of civil lords as well? Used to reward the ministers? For example, if a county decree increases the population by 10% and taxes by 10% under its rule, it can be converted to a military merit and a civil officer can be moved to a higher level? ”

Chen Ying also had this idea out of the blue. People need to walk on two legs, but the Tang Dynasty's martial arts are great, and the four Yi surrender are thanks to the twelve turns of the Tang Dynasty's military merits, as long as they obtain military merits, they can be promoted and make a fortune, so this is the only way for the Han family and the Shu clan to advance.

In the same way, because Datang attaches too much importance to martial arts, it turns out that Datang does not do a very good job in internal governance. The civil and military generals all hope to open up territory for the imperial court. Because of military merit, they can be promoted, and for them, this is the biggest benefit. However, the method of promotion of civil officials, the evaluation is too complicated. The Tang Dynasty divided the civil and prose officials into twenty-nine levels, according to the principle of one evaluation every three years, theoretically speaking, from the ninth grade, to the first grade, it takes seventy-two years, and almost no one can do it.

If you are like a military officer, each battle can be used as a rating. Of course, Wenzhi cannot be like the official examination, but the principle of annual evaluation can be adopted, and the standards adopted will be clear at a glance.

How much new arable land, how much food is produced, and how much new population is added to a county, this is like the GDP of later generations. Not only can you assess the county magistrate, but also the imperial history, how many people you have impeached, how many corruption you have not reported, this is a political achievement.

For example, three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five supervisors, these are the twenty ministerial-level departments of the Tang Dynasty, how many of them are because there is no evaluation?

As soon as Chen Ying said this, Li Yuan suddenly came to his senses. This method is actually not the first to be created by Chen Ying, but the twentieth rank lord system of the Qin State founded by Shang Ying Shang Jun, the twentieth rank of the Qin State, this is not only a war to get a knighthood, but a farmer farming, as long as you produce more food than others, or the craftsman has a major invention, what new medicine the doctor invented, how many casualties can be reduced, this is all credit.

Qin Jue's twentieth rank is a big basket, and anything can be put into it.

Li Yuanneng is really the founder of the country, and he must have something unique. When it was discovered that Chen Ying's proposal had an effective method, Li Yuan immediately transformed the original special small-scale negotiation into a small court meeting, and the left servant of Shangshu shot Pei Lian, Zhongshu Shizhong Chen Shuda, Guanglu Dafu, Tongzhongshu Menxia, Xiaoyu, the civil secretary, Zhongshu Lang Yu Wenshi, Yang Gongren, the Huangmen waiter, Feng Deyi, the palace supervisor, Feng Deyi, and the crown prince Li Jiancheng were all invited to Ganquan Palace.

Li Jiancheng was the first to come, and he was still inexplicably wonderful, but when he saw Chen Ying here, Li Jiancheng walked up to Chen Ying and asked, "Chen Ying, what is the important matter for my father to discuss this year?" ”

Chen Ying told Li Jiancheng about the things that Li Yuan called over today.

After hearing this, Li Jiancheng thought for a while, and then complained: "Since you have such a major proposal, why don't you go to the East Palace to discuss with the main palace?" ”

Chen Ying sighed helplessly and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister is in a hurry, unintentionally mistaken, who would have thought that things would make such a big fuss." ”

Li Jiancheng smiled bitterly: "You have to be prepared, I am afraid that this restructuring will be opposed by many people." ”

Chen Ying felt puzzled, in history, the Tang Dynasty fought down a huge territory, all the way to the Caspian Sea, this was the most powerful time in Chinese history to expand the territory, but because of the Battle of Talas, the territory of 3,500 li was lost at once, and only the four towns of Anxi were rebuilt four times before and after.

This reason, in addition to the population, is that Datang does not pay enough attention to cultural governance.

To put it bluntly, it is because Datang is too heavy on military force in terms of national policy, and it does not have enough benefits for civilian officials.

However, once the interests are tilted to the civil officials, they will be like the Song Dynasty, and the civil officials will not want to make progress.

Chen Ying's idea is to neutralize the interests of all parties and balance all parties.

Then, it is possible to motivate both the generals and the ministers. This is a good prescription for governing the world, how can there be countless people who oppose it?

However, after an hour, all the inviting ministers were ordered to arrive at the Ganquan Palace, after the salute. An old man with gray hair and a trembling beard fired at Chen Ying: "Chen Yuma, the gentleman is in righteousness, the villain is in profit, you are here." is talking a lot, but it's all about profit, how heartfelt? ”

"Hold the grass, Lao Tzu will be shot while lying down!" Chen Ying looked at the old master with a little eyes, and said puzzledly: "Who is here?" ”

The old master said lightly: "Old man Kong Yingda! "Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself? You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
