Yang Gengai decided to get back on the field.

How do you swallow this breath?

The brain is running, and I am thinking of countermeasures.

Suddenly, I saw a lot of notebooks on the desk, and one of them was opened. The neat writing on it made Yang Reform's heart moved.

Yang felt that he had found a weapon to "fight back" against this group of NPCs.

"Who wrote this book? Why is it so verbose? Didn't I say that? Don't write anything irlevant, be concise, clear, and explain the problem in the shortest words......"

Yang reformed for no reason and became angry. said that he was scolding the person who wrote this book, but in fact, the group of people in the main hall all scolded it.

Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know that the emperor is crazy again.

……

"The ministers know their mistakes, and Your Majesty has to teach them a lesson...... These ministers also simply admitted their mistakes directly, so that the emperor's fire had nowhere to go.

After scolding, Yang Gaixin said: You NPCs, if you still want to fight with me, you know that you have this hand. I don't admit the battle I just lost.

Yang Gai said: "Ladies and gentlemen, look at it, this is too economical...... Back then, in order to save expenses, Zhang Juzheng even cut down a lot of the candles of my ancestor Emperor Wanli, and it was a waste to light one more...... It is also to support the government ...... of my Ming Dynasty, today, I feel that this Zhang Juzheng has taught a great lesson, my Ming Dynasty, at present, is also internal and external difficulties, and the income is frequently urgent, and we should also carry forward the spirit of thrift and thrift, save some of the province, save some ...... of the economy, for example, today this fold, such a large fold, it cost so much paper, but only wrote a few dozen words. I think that this is too extravagant and wasteful, and it should be saved, and I think that in the future, everyone should not write this word too much, which is not good, and it should be saved...... It is best to write as small as possible, so that the same piece of paper, you can write more words, and the documents that cost a lot of paper can also be reduced to a piece of paper, so that you can save a little a day, and a year down, you can also save a lot of expenses for my Ming Dynasty, what do you think? ”

Yang Reform said a lot in one breath, the reason is to be economical, and called on everyone to replace the brush words with "fountain pen words". This is purely fighting with this group of ministers, and if you blackmail me for money, I will make you uncomfortable.

The ministers were stunned to watch His Majesty the Emperor's speech foaming at the mouth, saying that they should be economical, that they should change the big characters to the small ones, and that they would gather the words of several pieces of paper into one piece of paper in the future...... this group of ministers was dizzy, and when did the country of all states become called the country of flowers? It's a bit too picky, isn't it? Oops, the old Zhu family is a monster again.

At that moment, one of them came out to object, saying: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks it's inappropriate." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks, how can I lose the face of my dynasty for a few pieces of paper? So that I swept the floor in the face? "This person is very reasonable, the issue of face has always been the glorious tradition of our Heavenly Empire, how can it be said that if you don't want it, you don't want it?

But Yang Gai's reason for refuting him was also very simple, asking: "Is the Hubu Shangshu available?" ”

"The minister is here." An old man immediately stood up and agreed, it should be the head of the household. However, Yang Reform did not know.

"Do you still have any money? How much has it been lost this year? "Yang Gengai's question was very direct.

“…… Your Majesty, there is no silver in the household department now,...... As for the shortfall, I'm afraid there will be three or four million taels this year......" This old courtier is estimated to be in a hurry, his hair is gray, and his brows are furrowed when he speaks, and what he says also makes many ministers who are ready to come out and say something shut up.

"Very good, just now the household department Shangshu also said, the household has no silver, and there is still a deficit of three or four million taels, don't you think Aiqing should be saved? Well......? Yang Reform said, and deliberately stared at the person who said the big truth just now.

When the man saw that the emperor had used a "killer move" and lacked silver, he would no longer be able to say anything about the Celestial Empire. At that time, there is only one way to hang yourself.

……

The ministers were silent for a while, no one answered, the emperor should be diligent and thrifty, this thing is new, it has always been the ministers who persuade the emperor to save, and there is no emperor himself who asks for saving, this group of ministers is estimated to be the first time to encounter, their thinking is confused, and they have not been able to turn around.

This topic, it's really hard to refuse, the emperor asks for savings, is it not the minister's disagreement and insists on being lavish? If this is said, I am afraid that someone will immediately write it in the history books with a pen, "leaving a name in history".

Also, now that the household department is in deficit, if anyone disagrees, the emperor will definitely send him to raise silver, then it will be a tragedy, let a good official not be right, to raise silver?

Therefore, all the ministers also used their brains to think about countermeasures for this matter.

After thinking about it for a long time, someone finally came out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to know how small the request of His Majesty is, how small it should be?" How many sheets of paper do you want to aggregate into one? ”

This man got to the point.

"This, this ......" Yang Reform actually wanted to say that it was as small as when he was studying for nine years of compulsory education. But that's impossible, now there is no printer, no pen, relying on a brush to write that kind of words, how many people in the world want to commit suicide?

Yang Reform couldn't say the specific size for a while, and those ministers thought that since the emperor couldn't say anything, then, even if it was in the past, even if the emperor said anything more, it would be a little smaller to deal with it.

……

Just when the ministers thought they were breathing a sigh of relief.

Yang Gai looked at his hand and said, "Then take my fingernail cover as the limit, big, don't overdo my thumb cover, small, don't be too small than my little finger nail cover......" Yang Gai looked at the well-maintained, very bright nail cover, and said quite proudly.

Yang Reform is happy in his heart! Such a small word, those ministers are all old, and they have to look at such a small word, haha, that is really torturing them!

When the ministers heard it, the nails of the thumb were no bigger, and the nails of the little fingers were smaller, and they all compared their hands with their own hands, some of them were bigger, and they thought it was okay, although they were much smaller, but they could still do it, and some people's hands were relatively weak, and when they looked at their hands, their hearts were suddenly half cold, such a small word? How to write? Kill you!

Immediately, someone jumped out to object: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks it's inappropriate." ”

"What's wrong? Tell me? ”

"Your Majesty, this word is too small, many of you are elderly, how can you see such a small handwriting? What if this delays state affairs? ...... "This person's worries are also reasonable, it is reasonable, the ministers are all old, how can they see the words if they are too small?" Who is responsible for the delay?

"This? Can't see clearly? Yang reformed after thinking for a while, and then said: "This, it all depends on your Aiqing to overcome, I will lead by example, and I also hope that you Aiqing will lead by example, take the lead in reducing this handwriting, save paper, save expenses." My Ming Dynasty consumes countless papers every day, and writes countless official documents, if all of them are changed to small characters to write, how much silver will be saved? This is a good thing to throttle, do you think I'm playing? Play? Are you kidding? The country is not rich, and even the silver for disaster relief cannot be issued, and now you only ask Aiqing to write a little smaller and save a little paper, do you Aiqing find it very difficult? I don't think the homeless people can't even eat......"

Yang reformed the head of the Tao and said.

Some of the ministers below couldn't stand it, jumped out, and objected: "Your Majesty, the ministers oppose this matter." ”

"What's the matter? Let's talk about it. Yang was impatient to be interrupted.

"Your Majesty, this from ancient times to the present, has never reduced the font to say, Your Majesty is limited to fingernails, this is also ridiculous, the brush and the size of a finger, how to write such a small print? This is called how the people of heaven write? Your Majesty is just fooling around! This person is also relatively powerful, and he sharply criticized Yang Reform when he came up.

There was silence in the hall! All watched how the emperor responded to this man's provocation.

Yang Gai was also angry in his heart, and said, "Fooling around? Do you mean I'm full and have nothing to do, kidding you? ”

The man was also more direct, and continued: "Exactly." The voice was impassioned, ready to die, with an expression that I was not afraid of.

"You ......" Yang Gai was furious, so angry that he couldn't speak, and his lungs hurt.
