Chapter 1090: Talents are Rare
(Thank you for voting my precious monthly ticket on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and thank you for not choosing the middle route and the reward of the Demon Thieves Group, thank you.) )
The situation in the capital, Su Tiancheng can still know a little, this stems from the dark line established by Qu Qingze in the capital, and also thanks to some of the relationships left by Zhu Xianxuan in the capital, Dengzhou is not particularly far away from the capital, and the time to get the news is also very fast, so most of the movements in the capital, Su Tiancheng can grasp it.
After Zhu Xianxuan, Lu Shanji, Xu Eryi and others were successively forced to be under house arrest, Su Tiancheng fully understood, Zhu Youzhen began to do it, that is, at this time, Su Tiancheng specifically asked Qu Qingze to strengthen the dark line operation in the capital, and he must master a lot of information, as for later, in front of Hong Chengchou, Qu Qingze and others, after understanding his ambition, Qu Qingze naturally understood the importance of intelligence in the capital.
If you want to overthrow the dynasty of the Zhu family, if you want to make the Ming Dynasty truly revitalize, it is indispensable to have talents, which is an indestructible truth, but in this regard, Su Tiancheng's operation is not particularly successful, and he once set up the Zhongxing Society, but unfortunately later because of the death of Sun Chengzong, the scale of the society slowly shrank, so that the rise of Donglin Academy, coupled with Su Tiancheng's busy conquest, almost no time to care about the affairs of the Zhongxing Society, besides, at that time, Su Tiancheng did not think of subverting the dynasty of the Zhu family, I just want to be able to revitalize the Ming Dynasty.
After clarifying the ambition, the talent issue is put on the table.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty in history, it was not that there were no talents, it was precisely that Zhu Youzhen and the imperial court could not use these talents well, and the imperial court fell into party strife, and the rising Donglin Academy did not understand the way to govern the country at all. Advocating Qing talk and Qing Gao, and being obsessed with fighting for power and profit, led to the Ming Dynasty, which was already full of holes, fell in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen.
Su Tiancheng will not continue on this path, he needs talents, real talents. In the final analysis, the fundamental way to recognize and employ people is still in the ruler himself, which has been said for thousands of years, and the ruler can figure out the law of historical development, and if he can grasp the rudder, he will be able to control the civil and military ministers below. If you can't identify the general direction, can't have accurate judgments, and can't make the best use of your talents, the ruler is just tired to death, and it doesn't have much effect.
There is a lot of controversy about the system and mechanism after hundreds of years, and Su Tiancheng doesn't think about so many things for the time being, his main goal. It is to establish a dynasty of basic equality, harmonious development and rapid economic development, and this dynasty needs to use institutions to exercise power. Try to eliminate the phenomenon of personal preferences in decision-making.
Su Tiancheng is not an idealist, let alone a utopian, some beautiful ideals, even if they have not been able to achieve it after hundreds of years, he will not have such high requirements, Wang Mang in history is a good example. The typical idealist has a very tragic ending.
In terms of how to use and attract talents, Su Tiancheng has his own feelings, Lu Shanji, Xu Eryi and others are all talents. They all have to be fought for, these people realized the chronic diseases in the court, but it was the rigid thinking that made them choose foolishness, as long as they can see the facts clearly, it is still possible to win over, of course, for those who desperately want to maintain the Zhu dynasty, Su Tiancheng will not be reluctant.
Building momentum is very important, and Su Tiancheng is very clear about this, so the first thing he noticed was Yang Sichang.
Yang Sichang in history has mixed reviews, but in actual contact, Su Tiancheng clearly felt that Yang Sichang is indeed a talent, at least he knows how to maintain the overall situation, and knows what is the most important thing.
What happened in the capital, Su Tiancheng knew the truth, the imperial court's mansion would still come to the governor's mansion, Yang Sichang was suddenly removed from the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, which was expected by Su Tiancheng, but Su Tiancheng did not expect that Zhu Youzhen's actions were so fast, but he looked like a person who did big things.
Yang Sichang's situation is very bad, staying in the capital has almost no effect, all the cabinet chiefs who were forced to give office during the Chongzhen period have almost all returned to their hometowns, it should be said that Yang Sichang is no exception, this is Su Tiancheng's opportunity, he has to do everything he can, this won Yang Sichang, it is conceivable that the former cabinet chief assistant took refuge in him Su Tiancheng, and the impact on all parts of Daming will be huge.
If you want to win Yang Sichang, the difficulty is also huge, so Su Tiancheng wrote a letter to Lu Shanji, clarifying a lot of truths, hoping that Lu Shanji will look at Sun Chengzong's face and come to Dengzhou to help him, and at the same time, Su Tiancheng mentioned Yang Sichang euphemistically in the letter, after all, Yang Sichang is the first assistant of the cabinet recommended by Sun Chengzong.
When Zhu Xianxuan entered the wing, Su Tiancheng was still thinking about Yang Sichang.
Although the time to Dengzhou is not long, but the situation in Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou is still beyond Zhu Xianxuan's expectations, he did not expect that the small Dengzhou and other places are so rich, through the sea income of Weihaiwei Wharf, trade and taxation, Quanzhou and other places, the silver that can enter the Governor's Mansion in a year is more than 20 million taels, close to 30 million taels, which is almost equivalent to all the income of the imperial court in a year, but the expenses are too big, The expenses for the arsenal alone reached more than three million taels of silver per year, not to mention the expenses of the Jiangning battalion.
After Zhu Xianxuan was in charge of the daily affairs of the Governor's Mansion, Su Tiancheng's main energy turned to thinking about big things, and some small things were not asked at all, Zhu Xianxuan would never have imagined that after he was in charge of the daily affairs of the Governor's Mansion, he was so busy that he was dizzy.
There is a reason why Zhu Xianxuan is so busy, in the past, almost all of the affairs of the Governor's Mansion were responsible for each other, and there was no need to think about it so much, but after Su Tiancheng made his ambition clear, he had to start to coordinate as a whole, for example, the expenses of Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou in many prefectures and counties must be determined according to the new standards, and the amount of silver taken from the Governor's Mansion each year needs to be explained in detail, and the income and expenditure of arsenals, shipyards, docks and other places should be focused on, just to manage business transactions. It will require a lot of manpower.
Zhu Xianxuan's identity is very special, everyone knows that Zhu Xianxuan is completely able to represent Su Tiancheng, in the past, the affairs of the Governor's Mansion were responsible for Su Ertong and Su Jun and others, their identities were not enough, and some things were impossible to speak, but Zhu Xianxuan was different, he could ask for it at any time, and he could ask for what to do next, and it was precisely for these reasons that Zhu Xianxuan was very busy.
When he was the deputy assistant to the cabinet, Zhu Xianxuan thought that he was already very busy, but unfortunately compared to here, it used to be easy.
Looking at Zhu Xianxuan, who came in in a hurry, Su Tiancheng's face showed a smile, he was very pleased, Zhu Xianxuan's ability is indeed very strong, he has adapted to the affairs of the Governor's Mansion as quickly as possible, and he is also able to work hard.
"His Royal Highness King Jin, this time has been very hard."
Zhu Xianxuan waved his hand and spoke helplessly.
"There are too many things, I really didn't expect it, I still have to straighten out a lot of things as soon as possible, by the way, there are some things, I still have to report to you."
Su Tiancheng hurriedly waved his hand.
"The matter of the Governor's Mansion, don't report it, I said it a long time ago, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is in charge, I don't care about those things, I'm thinking about the cabinet change now, whether we can do anything from it."
Zhu Xianxuan's attention quickly focused, and he also knew that Su Tiancheng was thinking about big things.
"Kun Yuan, what have you thought of?"
"Two things, the first thing, the cabinet has been adjusted, the original first assistant Yang Sichang has nothing to do, I'm afraid he won't stay in the capital, Yang Sichang is a native of Wuling County, Huguang, and he must return to his hometown, I think about it, whether to invite Yang Sichang to Dengzhou, even if he doesn't do things for us for the time being, as long as he can come to Dengzhou, the impact will be not small."
Zhu Xianxuan's eyes lit up, the impact of this can be imagined, but if you want Yang Sichang to come to Dengzhou, I am afraid there will be a certain degree of difficulty.
"Kun Yuan, what do you mean, do you mean that I am asked to do something in this matter?"
Su Tiancheng nodded.
"Yes, when Yang Sichang was the first assistant of the cabinet, His Royal Highness King Jin was the second assistant of the cabinet, you know each other very well, and you can talk casually, I don't have a lot of contact with Yang Sichang, and I am not particularly familiar with it, I think that after Yang Sichang comes to Dengzhou, he can participate in our later expeditions."
"Kun Yuan, this matter, I am duty-bound, if Yang Sichang can come to Dengzhou, the impact is extraordinary, you think very well, this matter must be done, in case it doesn't work, I will go to Huguang in person."
"That's not necessary, I've asked someone to do this, I believe it won't be long before Yang Sichang is going to come to Dengzhou, the key is how to express his stance after Yang Sichang comes to Dengzhou, after all, I am still the Jiliao Governor, Yang Sichang came to Dengzhou to take a look, it's not a big deal, only Yang Sichang is really willing to do things for us, our goal can be achieved."
Zhu Xianxuan nodded again and again.
"Kun Yuan, what you think of is really a big thing, if this thing is done well, it is estimated that the capital will be shaken."
Su Tiancheng has full confidence that Yang Sichang will definitely come to Dengzhou, because he wrote a letter to Yang Sichang, and Yang Sichang also lost the position of the first assistant of the cabinet because of this letter, which caused Zhu Youzhen's dissatisfaction, but the matter of losing the position of the first assistant to the cabinet will be the same sooner or later, even if Yang Sichang is not because of the matter of peace negotiated by the Houjin Tartars, but because of other things, he will lose Zhu Youzhen's trust, which is the so-called character determines fate.
