Chapter 588: Two Fools (Part I)

Wang Ju and the officials of Gyeongju, large and small, looked at the edict in their hands, although they were happy or unhappy, although they were not worried.

The exemption money was distributed among the remaining money.

Huanju and Gyeongju shared a total of nearly 50,000 guan of exempt money, plus nearly 15,000 guan of surplus money.

After the war, Wang Ju got a lot of official positions, what Zhongsan Doctor, Prince Zhongyun, Hanlin Bachelor, etc., these posts are actually Wang Ju really doesn't care, at most his current official uniform has changed from green to crimson, and finally entered the ranks of middle and high-level officials.

The power in his hands is still bad, and the Shaanxi pacification envoy must have been removed, but the Huanqing Road pacification envoy is still retained.

However, in times of peace, it is not so important whether there is such a pacification strategy to persuade or not.

No, the governor of Gyeongju also has some rights to intervene in the affairs of the armies of other states, and yes, he also only has the right to intervene, and he cannot interfere in all of them.

Only when it is said that there is, it is more correct when asked.

However, the Gyeongju Zhizhou has to be stricter with the control of Huanzhou, which is the same as Yeonju with the security army, because Huanju itself is a military state, and most of them are held by military generals, so the government affairs capacity may be limited, so the Gyeongju Zhizhou can intervene a little deeper.

Moreover, Yao Ji is the new takeover of Huanzhou.

Zeng Bu also knew about this, so when he calculated the apportionment at Sinong Temple, he combined the two states of Huanqing and sent them to Gyeongju City.

However, this number is not too excessive, and before and after the implementation of the exemption law in history, there were 80,000 or 90,000 fewer errand officers and before the implementation of the exemption law. Why? It turned out that there was no need to pay salaries, and officials didn't care, but now they have to pay salaries. Officials are starting to send people to settle accounts. If you can reduce it, you will reduce it. in order to reduce apportionment. In addition to the reduction and exemption of the errand service of the Fangchang River crossing system, the two were combined, and 80,000 or 90,000 people were reduced at once.

Immediately, this situation will also be Wang Ju's turn.

He also had to send someone to calculate the number of errand servants in Huanqing and Qingzhou, and try to reduce the number of servants in order to reduce the apportionment.

Compared with Xining's nine-year service money, the service money is 6.5 million, and the surplus money is nearly 4 million. In fact, the apportionment will not only go down, but the officials will definitely have to make a little money. In addition, this number is calculated in terms of guan and pi, and pi is more expensive than guan, so the number is above guan, then the actual apportionment of the people may be between fifteen million and 20 million guan. Exact numbers can't be calculated.

The service is divided into short service and long service, and their treatment is different, so it is evenly shared, and the annual salary of a long service is about 25 yuan, which can only barely maintain a family to make ends meet with the average price of prices in various parts of the Song Dynasty. However, if the wife does a little more work, the family can still maintain food and clothing. Of course. In the capital of Hangzhou, these places are certainly not enough, but the amount of apportionment in these areas will be even higher.

But that's not surprising. Since Wang Anshi has implemented the law on exemption from military service, he will definitely send someone to investigate, repeatedly demonstrate, and then verify the figures.

It's basically the same, but the Song Dynasty is so big, and there are some areas where the apportionment is unfair, which has caused many problems.

But it has nothing to do with Wang Ju, what Wang Ju cares about is Gyeongju.

There are more than 20,000 people in front of various errand officers in Huanqing and Qingzhou, and this number can be reduced a little, and after deducting short-term service, one long-term service can also be apportioned to about 25 yuan.

With the price of Huanqing Erzhou, it can almost make a family make ends meet.

The proportion of the apportionment of surplus money in the entire Song Dynasty was also considered to be in the middle of the range.

This shows that Zeng Bu also gave some care, and did not count the green salt money obtained by the people of Erzhou in his income.

Therefore, it is not much, and it is even nearly 10,000 yuan lower than the original budget of Wang Ju and Zhang Ji.

However, this is more than 60,000 yuan, which is still a huge amount.

Don't say anything, let's divide it......

Wang Ju took out a stack of dossiers and said, "You will share it according to it." ”

It's a bit silly for everyone to take a look at these files.

In fact, Wang Ju had expected this day, because he secretly used the power in his hands to let the front-line officers and soldiers organize a white army. However, this white army did not go to the Western Xia side to spy on the military situation, but also returned to Huanzhou and the second state, specifically to spy on the economy of households above the third class, including movable and immovable property, and then made an assessment.

But it's also training.

A real spy not only needs to spy on the enemy's march, but also has a lot of things to spy on, such as grain and grass logistics, as well as the people's feelings and economy in the enemy's rear.

It may still have a strict zhòng error, but it is certainly much more accurate than the information in the hands of the government.

The various officials began to apportionment according to the information, and there are still a lot of things, and since they have been exempted from military service, those who are unwilling to take on errands can now be released. However, these errand workers are still indispensable, so they have to be hired again.

In fact, in this process, there will be a problem of strictness. The money for exemption has come down, and not all officials may want to make a little money, mainly Xu officials.

It is not the officials who really harm the people, but the drudgery of the front of the government and the servants, can the officials harm the people?

What is a Xu official, that is, all the remaining official positions in a county except for the county magistrate, the secretary of the county party committee, and the director of the public security bureau.

Just reaping the benefits is enough to fatten them.

Therefore, most of the officials who serve as officials are local first-class heroes, otherwise many incompetent officials will not be put in the air.

After the exemption law, more than ninety percent of the officials rarely moved.

And the ones who stretched out their hands the longest were these officials, and if the officials were incompetent, they would be apportioned more. Then, when it was time to actually pay the servants, the hand reached out again and deducted it again. Originally, the imperial court was calculated, and its income barely allowed his family to make ends meet. Buckle it again, how to support your family. Therefore, many people were still reluctant to travel, but for the sake of local errands, the government had to forcibly apportion them.

and other messy things, coupled with this spare money, when the implementation of the exemption law was implemented, it was still a mess.

However, it also depends on the officials, Wang Ju is sitting in Gyeongju, no one dares to move, Wang Ju can really kill people. Just like that Yao Da worm, after the court verdict, the black character is heavy enough. Wang Ju still disagreed, and connected three concerts.

Just as Yang painted it, Yu Shitai was also afraid of Wang Ju, and finally agreed to Wang Ju's verdict. As soon as autumn arrived, Wang Ju sent an executioner to behead him.

Therefore, some of the officials also went down, and some of them were scholars. Some are poor readers. Although some of the good officials continue to keep it. It's less than half.

The pressure on officials in Gyeongju can be imagined.

But Wang Ju had been preparing for this day for a long time. As the order was given, detachments of officers and men withdrew from the front line and were stationed in the cities and towns.

It was inevitable that there was a commotion in Gyeongju.

These high-class households are not unreasonable, not only the two prefectures of Huanqing, but other state capitals are also implementing the exemption law one after another, but these state capitals are more widely apportioned and apportioned more extensively. This means that the amount of each person's contribution will be reduced.

However, in Gyeongju Huanju, no matter whether it is a green seedling loan or a military exemption money, Wang Ju has no apportionment for households below the fifth class. Fourth-class households are also deducted from good households, widows, female households, martyrs, and filial sons, and the remaining apportionment ratio is also less than that of fourth-class households in other state capitals.

If you don't suffer from poverty, you will suffer from widowhood, and what about this and that? We are not resisting trouble, but Ming Gong, you have to be reasonable.

Wang Ju called everyone together and said, "If you want to reason, I will reason." According to the imperial edict. Don't talk about fifth-class households, even fourth-class households. Do you want to do the errand service? Did the exempt money from the edict of the Chinese book say that it should be apportioned to the fifth-class households? ”

"But the other state capitals ......," said one of the squires boldly. But Wang Ju interrupted him: "Other state capitals don't do this, right?" Others are others, I am me. Actually, it's nothing more than you have apportioned more money. I just want to say two things, the first is that after the wealth and the poor are not equal, the world will be in chaos, and once that happens, you will have no wealth. Second, I am also trying to find a way to solve it, so that I can apportionment it to the fifth-class households who are hungry and hungry, but I really can't do it. However, if you find a way to reduce this exemption money, you will also reduce the apportionment. ”

"Can this be reduced?" Another squire said.

The background of this sentence is related to Fubi.

Fu Bi was in Bozhou, the court Qingmiao loaned down, and the county officials gave Qingmiao a loan, but Fu Bi was arrested one by one, taken to Bozhou City, and all of them were flogged. He also asked Xu Gonggon, the official of the sentence, to issue a document in the counties of Bozhou, and the counties were not allowed to carry out the imperial edicts, and I was begging the emperor to do his best. This edict is wrong.

After Wang Anshi heard this, he used Fu Bi to kill chickens and monkeys, and asked Deng Juan to come down to investigate.

Some officials of the Song Dynasty did not take the edict as a thing, such as Wang Ju. But at most, it will be a violation of yang and yin, and it will not be as openly confrontational as Fu Bi.

Fu Bi must have made a strict mistake, so he sat alone, and the ministers came to Benzhou, not to scatter the money, and was willing to be severely punished, and the rest of the county officials below Xu Gonggon looked at Shengcite and the loan.

So he dismissed Fubi's official position and let him go back to Luoyang for retirement.

In addition to Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu is the same, but he is not as bold as Fu Bi, so he let it go, but he even wrote against it, and let Wang Anshi let him retire.

As soon as the two fell, the rest didn't dare to let go.

So everyone was suspicious of what Wang Ju said.

Wang Ju smiled, pointed to the spare money, and said, "You don't think about the exempt money, but this money can fight for everyone." ”

The eyes of these squires lit up, and there was a lot of money left over from this one, more than 10,000 yuan. In fact, after Wang Ju's salt transportation, there are not many fifth-class households in Huanqing Erzhou, even if they are apportioned, they can't apportionment so much money.

Wang Ju clearly made a concession with this, and if Wang Ju gave in, they would also give in.

Then they dispersed one by one.

In fact, these people are a small number of people after all, real second- and third-class households, as long as the apportionment is fair, they are mostly desperate. The former servants had made them all miserable.

However, this is the most paradoxical part of the change.

For example, this exemption law, if implemented well, is indeed a good law. If Wang Ju was placed in his previous life, Ma Yun was asked not to run his Taobao, but to serve as a town mayor, or even let him work as a worker in a state-owned coal mine, and not give him a salary, what would be the result?

But because Zhao Ji and Wang Anshi valued the accumulation of wealth, its positive side was weakened.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, just like the two tax laws of the Tang Dynasty, which were picked up by the Song Dynasty and became a good law, but how many people resisted when the Tang Dynasty began to implement it?

Originally, the powerful people in various places were a high-ranking group, but now they are suddenly burdened with the most apportionments, coupled with these shortcomings, how can there be no strong opposition? In fact, this is the real reason for opposition, but because of the accumulation of wealth in the front, many descendants are confused, and the later they go, the less enlightened they are in the Song Dynasty, and there is no Qi Min's statement, so Wang Anshi is beaten into the ranks of traitors, thinking that Fubi Ouyang Xiu and others are virtuous ministers...... Well, Taixian.

However, Wang Ju has not expressed his position, he sent Zhu Haoqiang away, and began to write a chapter, saying that Gyeongju has a strong opposition voice, and in recent years, the Western Xia has repeatedly invaded Gyeongju, the people are miserable, and many people have died. It is close to the front line, and Hengshan is newly attached, and if the apportionment is too heavy, it will inevitably change. Therefore, I implore the imperial court to waive the lenient surplus money, and if the Song and Xia Dynasty were peaceful, after a few years of rest and recuperation, after the restoration of the fù, the lenient surplus money could also be re-executed.

It is true that a lot of Ding Zhuang died in Huanqing Erzhou, not only Fan households, but also some Han households.

And this section of Yokoyama is indeed too important.

For example, in the past, the Song Dynasty could only inquire about the situation of the Xia army on the side of Hengshan, but now because of this Hengshan, some clever scouts can even find out the news of Yanzhou and Lingzhou. This was unthinkable before.

Wang Ju wrote the chapter, sent someone to the capital, and then waited for news from the capital.

But as soon as this recital was sent away, the imperial court sent a lieutenant envoy to Gyeongju, the envoy's name was Qian Dongchun, who was also a eunuch, but Wang Ju didn't know him.

Whether he knew him or not, Wang Ju had to be politely entertained, and he warmly welcomed Qian Dongchun into the state government and asked what he was coming to do.

Qian Dongchun said that he meant.

Wang Ju got more than 3.8 million stone blue salt from Yanzhou, not only the four state armies on the front line, but also the people of the three states in the rear also rushed over to transport salt. Therefore, the merchant was short of labor at that time, and only transported part of it back for sale.

At the end of the war, Wang Ju withdrew his troops from Yanzhou, although he knew that Wang Ju would not be greedy for this green salt, but these green salts were placed in a few forts, and everyone was not at ease. Therefore, they were shipped back one after another.

Such a large quantity, and because of the best-selling green salt, it affected a wide area, including Hedong Road, where merchants transported green salt from Yanzhou back to the northeastern part of Hedong. In fact, the southern area of Hadong Road and Gyeonggi West Road have also been affected by Yanzhòng.

Although the cost has increased due to the problem of freight, the green salt is delicious and the selling price is higher.

Therefore, for most of the year, the sales of salt have plummeted.

When Wang Anli saw this situation, he wrote to the court, saying that it was wrong for Wang Ju to do this, which was tantamount to using the country's salt profits in disguise to buy people's hearts.

It is the people's heart, not the people's heart, because there is not only the people's heart, but also the military heart.

After a few months, the impact of the Gyeongju victory gradually faded, and it was time to do it, after seeing Wang Anli's performance, many ministers wrote to impeach Wang Ju.

Zhao Ji was noisy and had a headache, so he asked the lieutenant envoy to come down and ask. To ask is to put it mildly, but it is actually to investigate the matter...... (To be continued......)
