The earthquake will not be until August, when the restructuring has already produced positive results. If we don't cut troops, we will be able to turn around our finances this year. In fact, in this restructuring, the names of officials have not changed, the names of officials in the past are still used, and the system has not changed, only the responsibilities of each official have been clarified, and the overlap has been reduced by ninety. But that's reform.

If there is no overlap of government decrees, it will be smooth, unnecessary waste will be reduced, and we will not dare to fail to act and shirk responsibility.

In May, Cai Shuibian No. 1 Steel Plant was established.

Zheng Lang saw many problems, but others didn't know, and all he saw was sharper iron, tougher steel, and low cost, and they were all happy. did not break his promise, and then divided the 300,000 small shares.

And the reasons for the division are clearly marked.

There are still half of them unassigned, and if you want to get them, you have to learn from these people.

Then the second prison was established.

Zheng Lang can't predict this prison, and he doesn't know how much the final income will be. It's the dart supervisor, the history of the real dart game is very late, there was no before, or the post station has some similar functions. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that there was a dart game.

The Song Dynasty also asked for care, often valuables hired veterans or strong people to escort, but it has been not standardized, some people usually fly high, and when the thieves come, they will immediately flee. Others colluded with thieves to rob the Lord's property.

It's chaotic, and the government doesn't care about it. It's all spontaneous behavior.

This time, Zheng Lang proposed to become a dart supervisor, and I don't know what the effect will be in the end. The first is to solve the problem of the settlement of some veterans, and the soldiers will be laid off soon. Even though these soldiers are old, weak, sick, disabled and cowardly, they have undergone some training, especially some remnants who have retreated from actual combat on the battlefield. As long as there is no severe disability. Their combat effectiveness is still far superior to that of ordinary people. If it is unified. No matter how advanced the training is, it is the best bodyguard. Killing two birds with one stone is not only a business, but also a good governance.

The second is to solve some redundant politics for the imperial court.

For example, escorting money and materials. In the past, the imperial court used regular soldiers to escort them, or hired people's husbands, and under the layers of deductions, the waste was extremely serious. For example, Song Huizong is believed to have transported a stone. It costs 300,000 yuan from Jiangnan to the capital. At this time, the transportation was very clumsy, but how did a stone cost 300,000 yuan? How much does this cost, into copper coins, a whole 300 million. That is, it is wasted. Another is to reduce the pressure on the people.

In addition to the soldiers, there are also a large number of people, but there are good names, van soldiers, strong men, etc., the court paid the money, and worried the people. It's not a forbidden soldier after all. If the treatment is relatively poor, the family still has to cultivate before harvesting. This side is robbing, and the officials over there are coming, go, and carry things for the court, can you not miss something?

The establishment of the dart store partially replaced the work of these soldiers and errands, further reducing the burden on the imperial court, and some unnecessary waste, relieving the pressure on the people.

Therefore, its income is also very expensive, and since its establishment, Zheng Lang has announced another edict to cut the errand service, but this time it has nothing to do with the small officials, but the strong men and other coolies. There is no hurry, and we will lay off about 50,000 people one after another after all the dart supervisors are established.

It will continue to save 200 to 3 million exemption from military service, and it is even more invisible, and the exemption money will still be paid, but the 2 million to 3 million exemption money will be allocated to the income of the dart superintendent. Later, depending on the situation, gradually increase.

This is the big head, how much will the country spend on freight in a year? National, private, simply cannot be calculated.

Getting a 10% out of it will also generate amazing profits.

And the cost of this prison is surprisingly low, it is a dartman, and it is also solved by the imperial court.

Helplessly, it is better to hand over half of the deed shares to private individuals, and not to let the state monopolize it, otherwise sooner or later it will be like tea, hundreds of millions of catties of tea, the result of the imperial court monopoly, be cautious, and the profit cannot exceed one million. The main thing is the cost, almost like the money you picked up.

The imperial court may not get much benefit, but it can further loosen the pressure of the people, and the various deed shares are happy. When thieves rob darts, they consider not facing the anger of a family, but the anger of many powerful people in the world, and even the local people who know that their roots are strong and powerful in it, so they have to think about it.

One arrow N eagles.

In fact, this is an enlarged version of Blackwater Security.

After Zheng Lang revealed the truth, everyone first looked at each other, and then felt ashamed of themselves one by one. This has nothing to do with Gewuxue, but is just a whimsical idea generated by the system of the Song Dynasty. Why didn't anyone think of it before?

The second prison still released 50% of the share deed, leaving half of it to be distributed again as appropriate.

By this time, the opposition had become much quieter again.

One prison after another kept coming out, and they didn't know how many prisons Zheng Lang still had in his mind. Zheng Lang faced a problem, either he couldn't get used to being a high-minded hermit, or he threw himself into it and put himself on the side of the powerful to change them. But these people are now also facing a problem, either resist to the bottom, or go along with it, although the flesh hurts, but from the other side to make up for it, maybe the compensation is far greater than their own losses.

How to choose?

Even the opposition of some officials has weakened, at least Zheng Lang has put his mind to it and made more humility.

saw more of these, but Zheng Lang said another role in the palace, to Gao Tao and Zhao Ji. Jin Daxia praised Gao Tao incomparably, but in fact, compared with Liu E, Gao Taotao's political methods are much worse.

There was no need to explain to Zhao Zhen before, Zhao Zhen would understand, but Gao Taotao and Zhao Ji had to be explained: "Now the six prison deed shares are implicated in more than 1.2 million households, more than sixty percent of the third-class households, and even many fourth-class households, as well as a very small number of fifth-class households who have entered the province of boiling and eating. In the future, the bank supervision will expand its shares, and the two supervisors will continue to focus on the negative accounts, so these second, third, and fourth accounts with less power will be given a greater opportunity. A few years later, almost all households above the third class, as well as a large number of fourth-class households, entered the sixth prison. As they become more profitable, they will be tied to the state. The country is glorious, they are glorious, the country is dead, they are not. ”

This significance will be very important to the Zhao and Song royal families.

However, Zhao Ji asked a question that Zheng Lang couldn't answer: "Zheng Gong." If there are no such deed constraints. What will the restructuring be? ”

For most of the day, Zheng Lang sighed: "I can't imagine it." It will even ...... Fail! ”

Zhao Ji looked at Zheng Lang's embarrassed appearance, smiled dumbly, and then felt fortunate that there were a total of thirteen newspapers at this time. Soon after Zheng Lang entered the Chinese book, all the newspapers talked about the evils of the times. However, after the real restructuring, most of the public opinion that supported it disappeared, and the rest were all opposing voices. Or to euphemistically criticize the imperial court for being too aggressive. Looking at the direction of the newspaper, you can imagine the controversy and commotion below. This is especially true in the court, where opposition is getting stronger. Even after Tang Jie arrived in Zhongshu, when the restructuring was about to end, Tang Jie still euphemistically criticized the reform.

He felt the same pressure in the palace.

Zheng Lang sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you still have to stay up, at least until next autumn, I hope the controversy will subside at the end of next year." Otherwise, if it goes on like this, I can also be like Zhuge Wuhou. ”

Exhausted to death.

"With tea. with tea," Zhao said.

What he appreciates most about Zheng Lang is that he is more conscientious. I was a little bitter, as long as I stayed up all night in Zhongshu, the eunuch immediately brought a big bowl of soup, the soup material has a century-old ginseng from Goryeo, shark fin from the South China Sea, and a special bird's nest from Liangguang, so I am afraid that I will be tired.

In June, the sky turned upside down, and the Yellow River swelled with heavy rains.

Zheng Lang immediately ordered the officials of the capital water supervision to go down to check.

Not only the Yellow River, but also the waters of the Taihang Mountains in Hebei Province have also soared, and some areas have burst embankments.

It has nothing to do with the Yellow River, the northeast flow of the Yellow River has been completely closed from Lanzhou, and it is several tributaries of the Taihang Mountains that have occurred in the disaster, of course, there is no invasion of the Yellow River, and the harm is not great. Actually, these rivers also have to be managed, but the country doesn't have that economy at all. When the river was working, he was also trapped in economic pressure, and Zheng Lang only cured some rivers roughly, but the effect was not great. But the Yellow River is the most worried.

After the officials made their rounds, they saw that the river was constantly surging, and although the embankment is now theoretically a golden pond, they were still very worried, and suggested that some flood discharge areas be opened to release water to relieve the pressure on the river. These flood discharge areas are also planned in advance. However, to open a flood area, it is necessary to settle a place for the people, and it costs a lot of money.

Zheng Lang looked at the folds, and then looked at the torrential rain outside, and wanted to go up to the river embankment to check, couldn't he even stop such a flood? So what a 100-year plan?

After thinking about it, I finally agreed.

However, despite the heavy rains this year, there was no major disaster, let alone the phenomenon of the Yellow River bursting.

After more than half a year of turmoil, the country finally calmed down.

However, one wave has not settled, another wave has risen, and there are things in the northwest. This time happened in Qinzhou, after the Western Xia captured the Niche Valley, the western side of Qinzhou became very chaotic, some fell to the Song Dynasty, some fell to the Tubo, and some fell to the Western Xia.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that such and such things happened in Western Xia, they would have been able to invade the Minzhou area.

The sphere of influence here is very complicated, called Qinzhou, in fact, west of Qinzhou and southwest of the Deshun army, the Song Dynasty's control ability is very weak. If there is no Shuiluo City, the entire southern part of the Deshun Army is a place of restraint. The Shuiluo City incident has passed in the past, and it has been repaired, and no one mentions it anymore. Later, in order to strengthen his control over the west side of Qinzhou and contact with the Deshun army, Guo Kui built Jichuan Han and Zhiping Zhai on the west side of the Wating River, at the junction of the Deshun army and Qinzhou, and included many cooked Fan cages.

In fact, the Qinzhou households had the most favorable impression of the Song Dynasty, and most of them wanted to be attached to the Song Dynasty. It's just that the Song Dynasty didn't have a cold on them, they didn't catch a cold, and they wouldn't reach out to help when something happened. Therefore, he was forced to fall to Western Xia or Tibet. Guo Kui repaired two villages, which can only be said to include some Tibetan households, and cannot effectively protect the Tibetan households on the west side of Qinzhou. Therefore, the familiar households on the west side of Qinfeng Road are often invaded by Westerners, and this Westerner mostly refers to the Fan households and Qiang households in the west, and some of them come to invade spontaneously. The Fan households here live well, and when they have a good temperament, they will be soft, and the buddies over there will be poor, and they will be fierce when they are poor. This is only part of it, and there is also the instruction of Western Xia.

Before Han Qi arrived in Shaanxi, he repeatedly warned that when the country was in emergency, Shaanxi was embarrassed and could not make trouble. He came by himself, but he didn't think so.

Hearing that Qinzhou had been repeatedly plundered, he once served as the envoy of Qinfenglu's pacification strategy, and he was very familiar with it, more or less emotional, and personally came to Qinzhou from Jingzhao Mansion to inspect.

And Li Liangzuo died, and the orphans and widows of Western Xia were still arrogant, which made him unable to do this.

After turning around for a few days, I saw a dangerous place, Dagangukou. Therefore, the book was written to build a city at the mouth of the valley. It is called the Castle of the Heavens. It is also called Gangu City.

It has nothing to do with Zheng Lang, but a matter of Xifu.

Zheng Lang can also lead the affairs of Xifu and is more expert than other ministers. However, the system was set by him, and he had to take the lead in following it. After the division of labor is clear. The edict clearly stated that no one was allowed to take charge of both the east and the west until the arrival of the war, so as not to produce powerful ministers.

It is only a border walled city. Xifu will not ask Zheng Lang again. So what's the use of them?

After seeing Han Qi's folding, he replied that the bamboo basket is a familiar household land in Qinzhou, and one or two places will be built in the future.

This refers to the Xiang Bao incident four years ago, Xiang Bao threatened to attack the Western Envoy City of Tubo (now Gongmajing, Yuzhong), and Zang Hua Ma will not be able to hold on. In a fit of rage, he dedicated the Western Envoy City and a large area of surrounding land to Western Xia. As a result, the Western Xia expanded its sphere of influence southward to Guweizhou (present-day Longxi).

After all, Han Qi still has a certain identity, and wrote a more detailed reply, what is a familiar household in Xifan, you can't take it seriously, they use them as familiar households, and they don't levy tax labor, just let them be the fence of the Han family. It cannot be blamed that Fu Bi, Han Jiang, Lu Gongbi and others were conservative in their thinking, and they were harmed by the Anshi Rebellion, and in the Song Dynasty, some xenophobic ideas had faintly appeared. If there is a thief, then the Han soldiers will be the front, and the familiar households will be sheltered, and the Han will have the strength to spare, but when the country is in trouble, it will waste its internal affairs in the outside world, and it is not calculated. Therefore, there are ministers before and after, but they have not carried it out, and they also ask the public to listen carefully.

Han Qi repeated, the ancestors of the Xiongnu, suffering from its connection with the Western States, so the table of the river counties, cut off the right arm of the Xiongnu, and isolated the Southern Qiang. Today's Western Xia is based on, mostly the hometown of the Huns, in the past to take a temporary plan, abandon the Lingzhou, since the loss of the momentum of the broken arm, so Deming Yuanhao unscrupulous, to devour the Western Tibet, so as to get the sweet melon Su counties. So the momentum is great, and at the beginning of the treasure yuan, he dared to make a name. At the beginning of the Chen Qing calendar, he knew Qinzhou, at that time, Yongning, Anyuan (west of Qinzhou, south of Gangu City) stretched one or two hundred miles away, all of them were familiar households in Xifan, during which there were also raw households and familiar households to live, a total of fences, so Qinzhou was the strongest fence. Later, the Westerners took Kou as a matter, and saw that Qin Wei and Xifan were the most prosperous, and they offered it to our people (that is, traitors, Han people who defected to Western Xia), thinking that the counties in the western realm were widely available, and they could first take Xifan, and then use soldiers to focus on the key points, and then the counties of Xichuan would all get it. So he repeatedly attacked and threatened Qinwei Zhufan, and now most of it belongs to it, and it has approached the walled city of Qinzhou West Road. Compared with the Qing calendar, the fence is weaker. The Westerners also repaired the Xishi City (西車城, Han Qi wrote a typo) and built it as a Baotai army. The proximity of going to the Han realm has never been before.

And Mu Zheng, blind medicine and the Qing Tang clan knotted together, sought to establish grammar, went to the west boundary to build the west city is very close, Yin and Xia people to pay money. If it is gradually lured by the Western Xia, not only is Guwei lonely, but the Qinzhou West Road is also forced by thieves, then Dong Yu will be blocked from returning to the Huihui Society. Qinzhou horses have also been scarce since then, which can be described as a great disaster in Qinzhou. When he was in Qinzhou 267 years ago, the side affairs were completely different. Therefore, those who have been in the west for a long time and know the border affairs all say that the city can become a foreign force with Jichuan and Guwei, and isolate the Westerners from swallowing the Zhufan in the Guwei area and the blind medicine, Muzheng, and Qingtang Dynasty.

The minister saw that there was a pearl in Jingyuan Road and Yuanzhou to destroy the three clans of Zang and Kangnu, repeatedly killed officials and soldiers, and went in and out of the western realm to buy and sell, unscrupulous. In the Qingli, every Westerner enters the Kou, then the former is the township guide, and the same is robbery. Fan Zhong drowned in the north of the three tribes, repaired the two villages of Suining in Jingjing, and then placed the two forts of Pingping and Ercheng, and the three tribes of the pearl did not dare to do it, and obeyed the imperial court.

It is not a good thing for Jinchen to beg for the city. The people of the West and the imperial court have not yet fully agreed on the room, so they can take the city. If it is said that after repairing the city, the cost of accumulating troops and accumulating grain, the minister thinks otherwise, the city is both a city, then Qinzhou Sanyang, Fuqiang, Yongning, Laiyuan, Ningyuan (all in the west of Qinzhou, Gangu City) all the villages are in the vicinity, can evenly reduce the soldiers of the village, to the other Tunbo, and create a liquor tax field to both. There is a gap near the side of the city, and seven or eight hundred archers can be recruited, so that the defense can be known. The ministers today painted the border city along the Yanyan, Huanqing, and Jingyuan roads to the west boundary of the small paper map adhered to the back, His Majesty looked at it, then you can see the roads of today, for example, the city is surrounded by familiar households, not a lie. I hope to deliberate with the ministers of the second government.

Excited and angry, this memora is written in a mess (I see that I have compiled it).

I was a little depressed in my heart, I was still in charge of the world the year before last, and now I am even building a small city, and I still have to ask for consent again and again, how did I fall to this point.

thought that someone in Xifu deliberately restrained him, and deliberately asked Zhao Ji and Zheng Lang to watch it together. Rich brothers. You don't understand. Let's leave it to an insider to deliberate. But Han Qi was very worried, the Song Dynasty was now widely spread in the Western Xia, and the same was true of the Western Xia, and he did not consider this if he did not come to the northwest. Here it is. Thinking of the past, often before the imperial court made a decision, the Tangut people learned the news and defended in advance.

Therefore, on the side of the edict. While transferring Yang Wenguang, a brave general from the northwest, to prepare to supervise his service, Yang Wenguang came to Qinzhou, claiming that the city was spraying pearls and gathering soldiers. Then he led the crowd to quickly sneak to Gangu, and when he arrived at the city, it was already dusk, and he immediately set up camp.

At dawn the next day, the Xia soldiers heard that the Song army had come to Gangu, and the army arrived. Fighting with Yang Wenguang, he has not yet arrived in front of Dazhai. After a random shot of bows and arrows, more than a dozen artillery pieces were brought in and fired. The Western Xia formation was in chaos, and Yang Wenguang led the army to take advantage of the situation. The Xia army was defeated, and after the defeat and fled, he was angry and said to Yang Wenguang: "We should tell the lord of the country to chase you with tens of thousands of fine horsemen." ”

I'm defeated, it's okay, go home and call my dad Li Gang to deal with you.

The song folded to the imperial court.

Fu Bi thought about it again and again, and finally handed it to Zhao Ji. Zhao Ji called Zheng Lang again.

Zheng Lang said: "Your Majesty, Mu Zheng is not married to Western Xia, but has surrendered to Western Xia, and the two are related. If the imperial court is not vigilant, the power of Western Xia will spread to the south, and the Taozhou Zhufan will be the first on both sides of our court. If you ignore it and let the Western Xia recover, the border line with the Western Xia will be extended by seven or eight hundred miles, and how many garrisons will have to be added at that time to defend the security of the Western Xinjiang? ”

Saying that, let the eunuch bring the map, and the heyday was when Zheng Lang was on Jingyuan Road, at least the nominal Song Dynasty territory was close to Lanzhou for a time. But now Nanhuizhou, all of Lanzhou, and a large area north of Guweicheng are owned by Western Xia.

He also said: "It's still not terrible now, the Tibetan people are strong in combat, and the Western Xia has not really subdued it." If it is really collected for its own use, how many strong soldiers will be brought to Western Xia in this large area. They were also familiar with the terrain of the two states of Qin and Min, and once they invaded, the danger was far greater than that of the soldiers of Western Xia. Yes, Yokoyama Qiangbo was born in the West also. ”

Everyone looked at each other.

As far as matters are concerned, no matter what the festival is with Han Qi, what is right must be supported, and what is wrong must be opposed. He also said: "The imperial court not only has to agree, but also approves, there are still many gaps between the city and the ancient Weizhou, and just one city is still not enough to protect itself." Let Han Qi think carefully. ”

After Han Qi received the recital, he didn't feel it in his heart, what we said didn't make sense, why let Zheng Lang forgive?

At this point, Han Qi was finally a little disheartened.

But the will of the imperial court to obey, looked at it, so in the west of the Gangu found a place, the Zhu Valley, so the book said that you can build a big fort in the Zhu Valley, begging to abolish Nami, Danshan, vegetable garden, Baishi, the five forts behind the bell, so that the garrison is stationed in the new fort.

This fort is the later Tongwei Fort, and later changed to Tongwei Village.

The locations of the two castles were extremely important, and Zheng Lang sighed deeply after seeing Han Qi's performance.

As the prime minister, Han Qi has done a mess, but for the military, Han Qi is definitely not a layman, but it is a pity that his strong personality is daunting, otherwise he is recommended to return to Xifu, which is a unique candidate.

Tongwei Fort has not yet been repaired, and the first one to be repaired is Gangu City.

Including Zhao Ji, he didn't care too much, all he thought was that after increasing the fort, there would be more garrisons, and the further west he went, the higher the cost of transporting grain, and how much silk would be used in a year. But he didn't expect Western Xia to fight back. The first is that the situation in Western Xia is not very good now, and the people are embarrassed, and the second is that Li Liangzuo is newly mourned, orphans and widows, and the Liang family is a Han person, as a Han person, he should be close to the Song Dynasty.

But it's wrong, this Liang is a very crazy Han man!

Han Qi also thought wrongly, Xifu was not embarrassed for him, but Fu Bi didn't understand military affairs, on the contrary, he knew civil affairs very well, so as the governor of Xifu, he was thinking about national finance.

It was not Zheng Lang who really did it to him, nor Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, nor Fu Bi.

It's a different person.

Zhao Ji's questioning made Wen Yanbo uncomfortable.

The position of participating in the governor's affairs is very delicate, and it is easy to go up and down. Zheng Lang silently hinted at something, but did not say it explicitly. And he was suspicious that Tang Jie had said bad things about himself in front of the emperor behind his back. After thinking about it, I had no choice but to submit my name to Zheng Lang and Zhao Ji.

After Fu Bi left, he took over Xifu, knowing how redundant this soldier was.

Han Qi snatched a lot of rights in Xifu, Wen Yanbo smelled that Han Qi did this, and there must be a time to settle accounts after the autumn, so he secretly assisted Han Qi, but he never made a public statement, and he was relatively clear about all kinds of inside stories. Therefore, in the time of embarrassment, he wrote a letter and suggested that the imperial court should drastically reduce the number of soldiers, otherwise the finances would still not be able to turn around. and faintly wrote about Han Qi's arrogance in the past few years. The redundancy of troops again has nothing to do with me, but the East Mansion has taken over the power of the West Mansion.

The news soon spread to Shaanxi.

Han Qi was originally unhappy, but after hearing this, he was furious, and almost had a white head like Zheng Lang. (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
