Chapter 100 The National Policy of the Holy Word
to the sanctuary.
Following the sound of Emperor Yongsheng's voice, the place became extremely quiet for a while.
But who would have thought that Emperor Yongsheng would appear at this time?
At this time, outside the school, a few figures appeared. They were the figures of Emperor Yongsheng, Wei Xian, and Liu Yan. Two eunuchs stood behind, and Emperor Yongsheng stood with his hands behind his back. .
"Students pay homage to the sage, may the sage live long and live long."
In an instant, everyone stood up and saluted. They had no official positions, but they were students of Daxia Academy. They could be regarded as disciples of the Son of Heaven.
Even Gu Jinnian couldn't help standing up to salute at this moment.
But for Gu Jinnian, it was.
What a coincidence.
As soon as I pretended to beep and said a word, the emperor appeared.
And the most important thing is that the second half of the sentence was not spoken.
"Jinnian, tell me, let me see how simple your method is."
Emperor Yongsheng said expressionlessly.
"My lord, the student still hasn't finished speaking."
Gu Jinnian looked a little embarrassed.
"What?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
"There's an easier way, but I don't know how to do it."
Gu Jinnian lowered his head and made a sound, and the students in the hall couldn't help lowering their heads and holding back their laughter.
But Emperor Yongsheng was a little angry.
But he knew Gu Jinnian well, this kid was cautious, there was really no way and it was impossible for him to talk nonsense.
It's just that I don't want to say it.
"come out."
Emperor Yongsheng shouted angrily.
At that moment, Gu Jinnian walked out without saying a word.
After walking for about a stick of incense, when they came to a quiet place, the voice of the old uncle could not help but sound.
"In the future, you must be cautious when speaking outside. Don't say anything outside. Once you say something wrong, it will be recorded by someone. Sooner or later, something will happen. You are the son of the world, and you are my nephew. How many people are staring at you? Are you not sure?" number?"
Pulling Gu Jinnian out, Emperor Yongsheng's first words were a lesson.
He wasn't afraid that Gu Jinnian would cause some trouble, but he was worried that Gu Jinnian's nonsense would easily cause trouble.
"Enenn."
"Uncle taught me that."
Gu Jinnian nodded.
Seeing Gu Jinnian's performance, Emperor Yongsheng was actually very happy in his heart. For some reason, he was in a good mood seeing Gu Jinnian, but he was still a little angry, so he took this opportunity to beat his nephew.
"I heard that you built some kind of Qilin Pavilion. You should carefully consider this matter yourself, and don't make it into a clique for personal gain. Otherwise, uncle will not be able to help you."
Emperor Yongsheng continued to speak, mentioning this matter.
Hearing this, Gu Jinnian couldn't help frowning.
"Uncle, the purpose of my Qilin Pavilion is to help each other and learn from each other, and the members of the cabinet are not allowed to use family power. It is completely to grow each other, and I hope that one day I can contribute to the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Who told you about this? This person has a bad mind. He just wants to provoke the relationship between our uncle and nephew. Please tell me who told me, uncle. Don't worry, I will say that it was Eunuch Wei Xian who told me. I promise not to give it to you." You're causing trouble."
Gu Jinnian has a righteous face, good guy, we have a traitor in our midst?
I am a group of ignorant urchins, if I come up with something casually, the emperor will know about it, and someone must have said it secretly.
But when Gu Jinnian said this, Eunuch Wei Xian was stunned, and the gentle smile on his face froze instantly.
Good guy, if you don't cause trouble for His Majesty, just cause trouble for the miscellaneous family?You are really a good nephew of His Majesty.
"Hmph, do you still need someone else to sue? Your people joined this Qilin Pavilion, and ran home happily, threatening to sever ties with their biological father, saying that they would not rely on family power."
"Being whipped hard by his father, I probably didn't tell you about it, so it got to my ears."
"Jinnian, you are still young, I don't care how you mess around, but when you come out of the academy, you are going to be crowned and a marquis, you are mature, I know, you are full of the Gu family, and you can't hide it I."
"Now you can talk about your age, but you won't be able to in the future. After all, I am the emperor. Even if I want to favor you, I must have a reasonable excuse. Otherwise, I will forcibly favor you, which is not good for you."
"do you understand?"
Emperor Yongsheng was a little too earnest.
Maybe in another seven or eight months, Gu Jinnian will take the imperial examination after graduating from Daxia Academy. Once the imperial examination is over, there is no need to say anything, he must be the number one scholar.
Then he will enter the court and become an official.
It doesn't matter how noisy you are now, you are young.
But if you can be crowned as a marquis, gain fame in the examination, and become an official in the court, then you can't joke about it.
Why is no one bothering Gu Jinnian now?Even if you are looking for trouble, are you looking for trouble for the Gu family?
It's because Gu Jinnian was a child and didn't reach the crown.
But when Gu Jinnian really reached the crown and became an official in the court, every move, every word and deed on weekdays may become a point of attack for others in the court tomorrow.
So he had to pave the way in advance to avoid any accidents.
"Nephew understands, please rest assured uncle."
What I have to say is that these words are indeed from the heart, Gu Jinnian understands, so he didn't play sloppy.
Speaking of here.
Emperor Yongsheng glanced at the surrounding scenery, and then spoke slowly.
"Jin Nian, what do you think about the resignation of the officials?"
Emperor Yongsheng opened his mouth and asked like this.
As soon as he said this, Gu Jinnian immediately showed an angry expression.
"It should be killed."
"These bastards eat the king's salary one by one, but they don't share the worries for the king, but provoke you, uncle."
"Everyone deserves to be killed."
"Isn't this group of people just relying on uncle, you want to be a wise king, so they act recklessly and recklessly?"
"If you don't kill their vigor, how can you let them know that this Great Xia belongs to you, Uncle?"
When Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, what he said almost reached Emperor Yongsheng's heart.
But Emperor Yongsheng knew that these were just good words.
Pure flattery.
So my heart is happy. After all, my nephew is my nephew, and I know that I love my uncle.
But the serious thing still has to be said.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense here, and tell me your opinion."
Emperor Yongsheng said, this kind of flattery, just listen to a few words, the main thing is to hear what Gu Jinnian thinks.
"Huh? What's your opinion?"
Gu Jinnian looked at Emperor Yongsheng and asked.
"Don't pretend to be confused, your brain is indeed flexible, just like our Li family, if you have an idea, just say it, don't pretend here."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke directly and asked Gu Jinnian to express his inner thoughts.
now.
Above the court, the matter of dismissing officials was very rigid. Emperor Yongsheng knew in his heart that if the disturbance continued, there would be big troubles, but if he let himself take a step back, he would be unwilling to live or die.
But let Baiguan take a step back, and he can see that this group of people will not back down.
After all, once they quit, Daxia and the literati will definitely scold them bloody. Isn't the literati most concerned about their reputation?
These officials also care. For them, it is impossible to advance or retreat.
As far as the emperor himself is concerned, it is impossible to advance or retreat.
So he really wanted to hear what Gu Jinnian had to say. Of course, he didn't have much hope, but thought that Gu Jinnian was so talented that he might be able to give him some ideas.
As for Gu Jinnian.
Seeing his old uncle asking like this, he didn't continue to hide it.
"Since this is the case, if you talk about political affairs, your nephew should call himself a student."
Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, talking about political affairs, Gu Jinnian must come up with this sentence.
Although this sentence feels meaningless, it hides a university question.
Well said, if you compliment me a few words, it doesn't matter if I am a student or your nephew.
It's not good to say, I'm just a student of the emperor, not your nephew, you can have an opinion on me, but you can't have an opinion on your nephew, and you asked me to say it.
It was just right.
"Say, stop talking nonsense."
Emperor Yongsheng was laughed angrily by Gu Jinnian, why does this guy feel like he is always on guard against himself, he cares too much about the will of the emperor and his ministers.
But he understands it's a good thing.
From ancient times to modern times, how many dignitaries and princes have died in "arbitrary".
I always feel that I have made great contributions back then, and I always feel that the emperor is still the good brother he was back then.
"Holy."
"Students believe that governing a big country is like cooking small fish."
Gu Jinnian stopped joking and said with an extremely serious expression.
This is his idea.
"Oh?"
"what for?"
When Emperor Yongsheng heard this, he immediately became interested.
Think of governing the country as a small dish?This is really the first time I heard it.
interesting.
"Your Majesty, the Daxia Dynasty has a very large population. In a county, a mansion, a county, even a village, the forces within it are intricate and bottomless."
"The court is a centralized place to manage the world, and every decree is extremely heavy."
"It's like offering delicacies to His Majesty every year. If His Majesty likes a certain kind of fruit, it seems like a trivial matter, but in order to honor His Majesty, court officials will definitely order the local area to plant such fruits."
"And because it is a tribute, it is selected layer by layer. It may be only a hundred or so fruits that are paid for tribute, but each fruit is most likely selected from tens of thousands of fruits."
"In this way, if the imperial court wants to do things, it must not be drastic. It must be like cooking small fresh food. It must be unfolded slowly. What is important is the way of warm water. Under the subtle influence, it will be changed slowly. It will take ten years, 20 years, or even 30 years. The timing is perfect."
"In this way, it will not attract backlash, or even if it attracts backlash, it can be controlled."
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
What he said is actually the words of a sage, and it is also a Confucian classic.
When a country is extremely large, it must not act indiscriminately. It is better to stay still than move. No matter what happens, it must be paved three to fifty years in advance.
Toss little by little, absolutely can't say what I thought of, just do it immediately.
Thousands of people have thousands of faces, it's good for you to think, but it's because you think about it from your perspective, which is a good thing.
It's like the precious banknotes promoted during the Taizu period of the Great Xia Dynasty.
It is a good thing for the economy and a good thing for the country to replace the copper coin trade with paper money, not only to reduce the cost of minting coins, but also to facilitate circulation.
Have you considered the thoughts of the people?Have you considered the issue of currency devaluation?Have you considered the issue of other countries doing things?
I may have considered it, but I will always use a kind of thinking of "should", "maybe" and "maybe" to weaken it. After all, the idea is thought out, you think it is good, you will have a first impression, and you will convince yourself.
However, when it is actually implemented, what is the result?
There was almost a big incident.
In the end, it was implemented for three and a half years. Not only did it not make the country's economy develop, but it went back a few years, and it even caused a lot of trouble. Is this a loss?
Don't be in a hurry.
be slow.
And it must be done bit by bit, because a small decision by the imperial court will be a big deal for all villages, counties and prefectures after it is implemented.
"You mean to say."
"I set up the East Factory, a little too hastily?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked with a calm expression.
"Back to Your Majesty, a little bit."
Gu Jinnian was a little tactful.
Because it is really urgent, there may be a war here soon, the national fortune has just increased, and these ministers are still the ministers of the dragon.
If you're in such a hurry, it's no wonder people don't turn their backs on you.
At least you wait for a group of people to retreat to the second line, or half of them die, it doesn't matter if you take this out again.
To put it bluntly, I still return to the previous statement.
It’s not that they don’t have self-knowledge, but that they accompany you to fight together. As a result, everyone works hard together, and they also treat you respectfully and politely.
It's no wonder it doesn't make trouble.
"Humph."
"If you have no guilt in your heart, why are you afraid of the establishment of the East Factory? In my eyes, they are all thieves with a guilty conscience."
Emperor Yongsheng was a little angry.
What do you mean by half a day, that you are at fault?
Gu Jinnian stopped talking, just shut up honestly.
He didn't need to say anything in anger.
Sure enough, seeing that Gu Jinnian had stopped talking, Emperor Yongsheng remained silent.
"You keep talking."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, looking a little depressed.
"It's true that all the court officials are wrong."
"They did things too badly and disobeyed His Majesty in public."
"However, the matter to be done now, I think it should be to resolve the conflict, not to argue about who is at fault and who is not."
"Therefore, I hope Your Majesty will calm down first. You are the Ninth Five-Year Lord, and these civil servants are watching Your Majesty for making mistakes. If you make mistakes, they will be famous forever."
Gu Jinnian also comforted Emperor Yongsheng.
"Makes sense."
"Then how to resolve this contradiction?"
"But let's say it in advance, Jin Nian, I will not back down."
Emperor Yongsheng opened his mouth, but he still made it clear in advance that if Gu Jinnian came here to be a lobbyist, it would be impossible for him to regress.
"His Majesty."
"Actually, I think that you are not wrong, and neither are the officials. The whole thing is actually a mistake in understanding."
Gu Jinnian nodded, it is unrealistic for the emperor to admit his mistake, but it is also impossible for the officials to admit their mistake.
So Gu Jinnian changed his concept.
"Misunderstanding?"
"What does that mean?"
This time, not only Emperor Yongsheng was curious, but also the two eunuchs.
They also witnessed this incident with their own eyes.
There is nothing wrong with understanding.
The emperor wanted to supervise them.
Baiguan refused to supervise.
It's that simple, what else is there to understand?
Sensing the curious gazes of the three, Gu Jinnian said in a calm manner.
"May I ask Your Majesty, is the intention of setting up the East Factory just to better supervise the officials, grasp the information, wipe out the criminals, rectify the government, and return the world to a bright future?"
Gu Jinnian opened his mouth and asked.
"Correct."
Emperor Yongsheng nodded directly, that's what he thought.
"Then I would like to ask Your Majesty, the reason why the officials refused to agree is that it is really nondescript to let the eunuchs take power, and the eunuchs will deceive the superiors and deceive the inferiors, so as to harm the country and the emperor?"
Gu Jinnian continued to ask.
"Yes."
Emperor Yongsheng nodded, that was indeed the case, there was no problem at all.
"That's a good solution."
Gu Jinnian nodded.
Then he spoke.
"I suggest to Your Majesty that power should be divided in a factory and controlled according to the individual. After all, blocking is worse than sparse."
Gu Jinnian expressed his thoughts.
"Decentralization of power in one factory? Control by person?"
Emperor Yongsheng frowned a little.
"Your Majesty, first of all, don't set up the East Factory, and change the name, for example, the Inspectorate."
"The name is changed, so that these ministers don't have any calculations in their minds. Then His Majesty wants to give Dongchang the power to supervise, review, arrest, finalize the case, and dispatch, right?"
Gu Jinnian guessed.
Although he didn't know the specific situation, the organization of Dongchang should be the merger of the Xuandeng Department and the Zhenfu Department.
"No mistake."
Emperor Yongsheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise, he didn't expect Gu Jinnian to guess so perfectly.
At the same time, he became more and more interested in the strategy proposed by Gu Jinnian.
"Since this is the case, ministers don't want eunuchs to hold power, so let's delegate power."
Gu Jinnian was very straightforward.
"Delegation?"
Emperor Yongsheng frowned.
If he could delegate power, he would have done so long ago. It was because he didn't want to delegate power that he had such a big conflict with the officials.
Gu Jinnian should understand?
Why empower yourself?
"Correct."
"Let go of power."
"Put some power that seems important, but in fact doesn't matter at all."
"Your Majesty, listen to me."
Gu Jinnian knew that Emperor Yongsheng was very confused, but this matter must be made clear, otherwise it would be a bit foggy.
"Supervision, review, apprehension, conviction, dispatch."
"In the eyes of ordinary people, arrest and dispatch are the most powerful."
"But actually, it's not."
"Your Majesty, who do you think is the one who really decides a person's life and death in the Ministry of Punishment?"
Gu Jinnian asked Emperor Yongsheng back.
After saying this, Emperor Yongsheng frowned, he was deep in thought.
On the other hand, Wei Xian and Liu Yan frowned even more.
The person who decides whether a person is alive or dead is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice?Who else.
However, the next moment, Emperor Yongsheng's answer made the two of them stunned.
"The head of the criminal department."
Emperor Yongsheng gave the answer.
Let the two of them be stunned.
Head of the criminal department?A mere sixth-rank official?More powerful than the Minister of the Ministry of Justice?Isn't this bullshit?
However, the emperor said these words, how dare they refute them?
"Your Majesty is wise."
"It's the head of the criminal department."
"Any case in any place must be submitted to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and the first person to handle it is the head of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. If he thinks there is a problem with the case, he can call it back directly, and the various places will supplement the dossier materials, so as to re-determine."
"In other words, if you bribe a criminal department chief, a homicide case can be postponed for as long as possible, and if the criminal department chief is not afraid of taking responsibility, he can completely influence the judgement process of the officials above."
"Of course, Your Majesty, this is just an assumption by the minister. The system of the Ministry of Punishment is extremely strict. Basically, this kind of thing will never happen. Major cases must be handed over to Yuanwailang for handling within fifteen days."
In the process of explaining the logic, Gu Jinnian also added a sentence, lest the emperor think that he was implying that there was a problem with the Ministry of Punishment and causing any trouble to the Ministry of Punishment, that would be bad.
Then Gu Jinnian continued to speak.
"Whether it's the East Factory or the Procuratorate, it's not the Ministry of Punishment, but an institution that reports to Your Majesty alone."
"So the most important power is not to apprehend, nor to decide, nor to dispatch."
"It's monitoring, reviewing, and drafting."
Gu Jinnian spoke up, and his words completely awakened Emperor Yongsheng.
In an instant.
Emperor Yongsheng froze in place.
His eyes were full of astonishment.
Gu Jinnian's words gave him a feeling of enlightenment, not that Gu Jinnian had great political ability, but that Gu Jinnian's thinking ability was too terrifying.
Just take one thing apart, find out the key, and then change everything invisibly.
This is where Emperor Yongsheng was shocked.
He was shocked before because Gu Jinnian was so talented that he was shocked in front of the vision of heaven and earth.
But this moment.
Emperor Yongsheng's political ability shocked Gu Jinnian. This kind of thing was not brought by Confucianism, but a person's innate wisdom.
is true wisdom.
"Separation of powers."
"Supervisory power, drafting power, and review power are in the hands of eunuchs."
"The right to dispatch, arrest, and convict is in the hands of the Great Confucianism."
"In this way, they supervise the Great Xia Dynasty for me. If they find any problem, they can directly draft a proposal, and then go to investigate and interrogate. After the interrogation, if there is no problem, then let it go. If there is a problem."
"Directly handed over to the Procuratorate, the evidence of the crime, the witnesses and the physical evidence are in front of them. Even if these great scholars want to protect these officials, they dare not mess around. So on the surface, they have the right to dispatch, arrest, and convict."
"But it's actually nothing more than the ultimate executor."
"It's just a good name for being unselfish."
"wonderful."
"wonderful."
"It's really wonderful."
Emperor Yongsheng was very smart. After all, the emperor of a country, Gu Jinnian simply stated the logic, and he guessed everything by himself.
Yes.
This is Gu Jinnian's solution.
What was the emperor's purpose in establishing the East Factory?
Supervise the officials, let them know something in their own minds, and at the same time obtain information. Of course, the last point is to strengthen the imperial power.
And what is the reason why the officials did not agree?I don't want to have a sword on my head, not to say that I don't want someone to supervise.
If you really don't want to, what does the Department of Xuandeng and the Department of the Town House do?
It's just that you asked your people to supervise me, we naturally don't agree, it's normal.
So let the great Confucianism take care of it.
Why let the Confucianism take care of it?
Although a great Confucian should uphold his conscience, at least who is a great Confucian?He is a literati, and there are aristocratic families behind him.
To put it bluntly, let's forget about small cases, it's just bad luck to catch whoever.
But if you really come across a big case, it doesn't mean that you are going to lie and give me time to act and operate. It's okay, right?
Anyway, let the great Confucianism come, what can be guaranteed is that he will not favor the emperor, and he does not need to favor his own people too much.
It would not work to let the eunuch come, it is purely partial to the emperor.
Then Gu Jinnian's method is much simpler.
It is not good to call Dongchang a new organization directly, after all, all officials already have an innate aversion to this organization.
Change it to the Inspectorate, and then split the power.
Drafting power, supervision power, review power, let the eunuch come.
Why?
It's very simple, these are the things that servants do, it's hard work.
As for the power of dispatch, the power of arrest, and the power of conviction, would it be nice to let the great Confucians take it?
Is there a feeling that I can determine life and death with a single sentence?
That's right.
But the problem is that the right to draft seems to be in the hands of the eunuch, but in fact it is in the hands of the emperor.
Once the case is drafted, it is considered to be on file. Once the case is on file, the eunuch will investigate. After the investigation is clear, the person will be arrested and interrogated. During the interrogation process, the undercover investigation will be placed in front of you.
You don't have to panic.
Tell me honestly.
Okay, all the witnesses and material evidence are here, and I have pleaded guilty, so let's hand it over to the Procuratorate.
After reading the personal and physical evidence, the Confucian of the Procuratorate read the criminal's confession.
What else do you want me to do?
Follow the procedure to arrest and convict him.
What?Do you want to delay for a while?
Damn it, there are all the witnesses and evidence, delay?Do you think you have a long life?
Witness testimony is complete.
Examination of physical evidence is completed.
The criminal pleaded guilty.
My Supervisor of the Inspectorate does not agree, why do not agree?I'm out of my mind and I just don't agree.
Look what's going on, I think my life is too long, hey, I want the emperor to look at my head, am I skinny?
and so.
The Great Confucianism of the Procuratorate is the emperor's knife, and it is the kind of obedient one who will get a good reputation, and who is not obedient will die together or bear the end of infamy.
Isn't this perfectly in line with Emperor Yongsheng's purpose of establishing the East Factory?
Of course, Gu Jinnian deliberately kept it in mind, and there was another reason for the separation.
That is, the eunuch's family cannot be allowed to dominate.
It is no problem for eunuchs to be in charge of drafting and supervising and reviewing powers, but ironclad evidence must be obtained in order for the Inspectorate to become a knife.
To put it bluntly, there is no hard evidence, and the Inspectorate actually has room to maneuver.
This can be regarded as leaving a way out, otherwise the disaster of the eunuch is not a trivial matter.
Anyway, balance is king.
In fact, Gu Jinnian just took out the logic of the procuratorate and the court. The ancient powers like to be packaged, such as the Ministry of Punishment, the Department of Hanging Lanterns, and the Department of Township. In fact, they all have the same power, but they just control what they do.
This is not good.
It is definitely not possible for one family to dominate, and the separation of powers is the kingly way.
As for whether there are loopholes?
There must be.
Is there anything in this world that has no loopholes?
Who can guarantee that the eunuchs will be obedient?
And who can guarantee that a great Confucianism must be a good person?
Unsure of something.
"Your Majesty is overrated."
Gu Jinnian smiled slightly.
But he kept talking.
"Your Majesty, there is no problem with the power of supervision being held by eunuchs, but the power of drafting must be assisted by a group of people."
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
In fact, the greatest power is the right to draft. If you don’t draft, you will have nothing to do. Regardless of whether you have committed a crime or not, you have been locked anyway.
Therefore, the most powerful is this.
"Oh? Who will assist you?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
"Children from poor families."
Gu Jinnian spoke lightly.
At the end, I added another sentence.
"A humble kid who wants to get ahead."
"Students, but those who don't have an official position, the family is poor, it's better not to be elected."
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
This drafting right must be for the children of poor families, and it must be the kind that has no official position and has not been elected.
Otherwise, if you pass the exam, you will get to know some people more or less.
The most important thing is that scholars who are related must have complex thoughts, and it doesn't matter if they are from poor families, they all want to stand out and do things seriously, and because they have no background, they can open it whenever they want.
It's the bottom one anyway.
Although the power is great, people who are slightly higher than them can be directly expelled.
Form a perfect closed loop.
"it is good."
Emperor Yongsheng instantly understood what Gu Jinnian meant, and he directly agreed.
Afterwards, Emperor Yongsheng swept away his depression and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
"Jinnian, I never thought that you could help me solve such a big problem, okay, okay, okay."
"However, I still have to test you."
"The establishment of the East Factory, what do I want most, and what is the most difficult thing to achieve?"
Emperor Yongsheng was very happy.
Gu Jinnian's words resolved a huge contradiction.
But he still wanted to test Gu Jinnian.
Let's see if Gu Jinnian can guess it.
"Return to Your Majesty, it should be."
"intelligence."
"Manpower."
Gu Jinnian answered almost without thinking.
The establishment of the East Factory is not only for officials, but for intelligence.
And it is all the information of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
The Hanging Lantern Division is also an intelligence agency.
The town government department is also an intelligence agency.
But actually?These two places have long been institutions of powerful families.
Many things, the emperor really did not know.
But after the East Factory was established, the emperor knew everything.
This is the reason why Emperor Yongsheng had to set up the East Factory.
Is it really aimed at officials?
These officials can be removed if they want to be removed, and they need to set up a special organization to remove them?Isn't this superfluous?
Is there any problem with that official?
To put it bluntly, even if you are fine, what about your family?The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister.
Can you control yourself, can you control others?
It's not hard to find trouble.
Depends if you want to or not.
Therefore, it is not important to target officials.
Strengthening the imperial power is not the biggest core.
intelligence.
is the core.
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yongsheng was completely silent.
Things that the civil and military forces of the whole dynasty can't see through.
He didn't expect that Gu Jinnian could see through it.
Of course, some of the officials may have seen through it, so they are so resolutely opposed.
But Gu Jinnian could see through it, which was something he really couldn't think of.
this moment.
Emperor Yongsheng really couldn't look at Gu Jinnian with the same eyes he used to look at him.
My own nephew.
Really incredible.
"In terms of manpower, do you have a good plan?"
After calming down, Emperor Yongsheng asked this question.
Dongchang's biggest problem.
In fact, it is not about implementation.
Sooner or later it will be established.
It's a big deal to wait for the civil and military elders of the Manchu Dynasty to grow old and die, and they can figure it out by themselves.
But the real problem lies in manpower.
Relying on eunuchs is definitely not enough, how many can you send out?
But if you hire people, the cost is too high, so big that the national treasury may not be able to support it.
This is what bothers him.
If this problem can be solved, yesterday he would really kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys, and even directly change a group of ministers, so what's the matter?
Otherwise, if he didn't kill yesterday, would he really be considered bloodless?
What a joke.
"Students don't."
Gu Jinnian shook his head.
"You have."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke directly.
"Not really."
Gu Jinnian still answered like this.
"Don't fool me, just say it."
Emperor Yongsheng actually had no idea, but he thought that Gu Jinnian likes to hide things, so he tried to deceive Gu Jinnian.
Speaking of here.
Gu Jinnian was a little reluctant.
"Actually, it's not that there is no such thing. It's just that the cost is a bit high. I'm afraid that your Majesty will not be able to spend so much money."
When Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, his uncle had already talked about this.
It's not good to say no.
However, Emperor Yongsheng's face was calm, but he couldn't help being shocked in his heart.
Good guy, really?
"How many?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
He had calculated before that if he wanted his intelligence agency to involve the entire Great Xia Dynasty, he would need at least 500 million taels of gold a year.
is the least.
Absolutely nothing more.
So he was curious how much gold Gu Jinnian wanted.
"Say less than 20 taels of gold a year."
"However, it takes a long time. It will take about three years when it involves the Great Xia Dynasty."
"It will take three to five years to control Donghuang."
"For about ten years, it should not be lower than 20 taels of gold per year. There is a possibility that it will exceed the standard, but the probability will not be very high."
Gu Jinnian made a calculation in his mind, and then came up with a relatively conservative estimate.
If you are not conservative, 10 taels of gold is enough.
Of course, you must expand the budget. If it is not enough, you can make it up yourself?Impossible.
"20 taels of gold?"
"Control the Eastern Wilderness?"
At this moment, Emperor Yongsheng couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up directly, and looked at Gu Jinnian with incredulous eyes.
My own budget is 500 million taels of gold a year.
And it was only the Great Xia Dynasty.
Gu Jinnian's goal is to control Donghuang?
How can this prevent Yongsheng from losing his composure?
How the fuck is this possible?
Gu Jinnian wanted to do this, so he directly crowned Gu Jinnian king.
In the future, whoever dared to look at Gu Jinnian in the capital would roll up his sleeves, mount his horse, and slap him twice, and then ask Gu Jinnian if he was angry, or let all the civil and military officials give him two slaps.
Not for anything else, just for Jinnian to be happy.
Silver is not a problem now.
It is to control the information of the Eastern Wilderness.
What is this concept?
Emperor Yongsheng's heart was beating.
If someone else said this, Emperor Yongsheng would have slapped him twice, but Gu Jinnian is different.
The more he got in touch with Gu Jinnian, the more he realized that Gu Jinnian was truly talented and unfathomable, he was a fucking genius.
It's so similar to Yongsheng.
They are all peerless geniuses.
Seeing Emperor Yongsheng's reaction like this, Gu Jinnian frowned a little.
20 taels of gold sounds like a lot.
But how important information is, anyone who is an emperor knows it.
There's no need for this reaction, is there?
A bit of a pattern, okay?
For a big country, intelligence is the most valuable, and it cannot be measured by money.
"His Majesty."
"20 taels of gold a year is really indispensable. No matter how few students there are, there will be no way out."
Gu Jinnian answered.
20 taels of gold, that's the price.
"How to do it?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked directly.
"I can't tell. It takes a month to write an article. The process is very complicated, and it's all in the mind of the minister. If His Majesty wants to know, he can only wait for the students to write slowly."
Gu Jinnian shook his head, he might not be able to tell for a while, really can't tell, this time it's not about hiding something.
"To put it simply."
Emperor Yongsheng was a little anxious.
He doesn't need to know how the process is, he just wants to know a rough idea, a rough idea that can convince himself.
"Chamber of Commerce."
"Establish a chamber of commerce, in the form of a chamber of commerce, to form a huge intelligence network."
"Hey and prosperous in the world, it's all for Lilai."
"The world is full of hustle and bustle, all for the sake of profit."
Gu Jinnian said the key words.
Chamber of Commerce.
Yes.
This seems to be a thing that must be mentioned in some online novels.
Inquire about the news must go to the restaurant.
Although it seems a little mentally retarded, it is actually true. A lot of news is made up by a group of people.
True and false blenders.
For example, the Minister of Rites favored that concubine today, everyone must not know, but the butler must know, right?
The butler kept his mouth shut.
But I can't stand the servant who came with me.
Even if you don't bring slaves, the concubine's maid will always know, right?Do you know what to do when you put on makeup at night?
After the concubine's maid finds out, it's not too much to say a word to her lover, right?
Xianghao went to other places to do errands, and heard everyone talking nonsense, so it's not too much to follow along, right?
As for whether it is true or not, everyone doesn't care, just have fun.
It's just that those who are interested hear it, and it's different.
And what if this caring person belongs to the shopkeeper?
Many things, if you dig deep, you will find that it is not difficult to know the news, it is just that you cannot touch it.
"Do you mean that the establishment of a chamber of commerce is to cover up people's eyes and ears? On the surface, it's doing business, but it's actually collecting intelligence?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
"Returning to Your Majesty, it is really business. When doing business, collect information by the way."
"Specializing in intelligence gathering, wouldn't that cost money to support them? Then who can afford it?"
"Their main job is to do business to make money, but they just record the news they hear and report it to the capital. At that time, scholars and eunuchs will sort out and study it."
"If you find something wrong, just investigate it immediately."
Gu Jinnian shook his head.
Do a good job in the chamber of commerce, everyone makes money, and it is the responsibility of the higher level to let the lower level pay attention to the news. If you don’t pay attention to the news, I will change the shopkeeper to see if you are comfortable or I am comfortable.
Moreover, inquiring about information seems to be very advanced, and it sounds like it is very powerful.
What is it actually?
In fact, it’s not just listening to people’s nonsense, leaving the news that you think is useful, going back to check it, finding out it’s true, and keeping it on file.
If it is found to be fake, then let it go.
The group of eunuchs in the palace and those scholars are responsible for categorizing information, gathering pieces of seemingly useless information together, and then letting these poor families who want to get ahead to study carefully.
If you find a problem, or think of something, report it quickly, and credit you for a credit, how much credit you have accumulated, and let you go to a certain place to be a county magistrate, which is also your blessing.
Is it reasonable or not?
"I understand."
"I understand."
"Setting up a chamber of commerce and doing business transactions, although you won't earn much money, you can still earn some money as a subsidy, plus a yearly 20 taels of gold subsidy from the imperial court. In this way, manpower will be available, and a lot of money will be saved. Expenditure, is that what you mean?"
Emperor Yongsheng had completely figured it out.
But he was wrong about one thing.
Who said you can't make money?
But Gu Jinnian didn't say that, it's meaningless to talk about it.
Wait.
For a moment Gu Jinnian frowned, looked at Emperor Yongsheng and said.
"Your Majesty, that's not what you mean?"
Gu Jinnian instantly realized that there was a problem. The Emperor Ganqing's idea was to ask someone for information?
Made, hasty.
Then it shouldn't be 20 taels of gold, it should be 50 taels of gold.
No, 100 million taels will do.
This time it was sloppy.
"Of course I think so, I was just testing you just now."
"Cough cough."
"it is good."
"Gu Jinnian listens to the order."
Emperor Yongsheng coughed, a little embarrassed, but immediately looked serious, and he was going to announce the decree.
"Students accept the order."
Gu Jinnian immediately got up to salute.
"I will entrust you with full responsibility for Daxia's information. I will allocate a fixed amount of 20 taels of gold every year. If you have special needs, you can apply for additional money from me."
"If this matter is handled properly, I promise you to be the head of the Great Xia's officials if you can grasp the information of Daxia within ten years. If you can grasp the information of the Eastern Wilderness within 30 years, I will make you king. If I am no longer in this world, I will leave a legacy , Er can rest assured."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, and the benefits he promised made the hearts of the two eunuchs jump.
Mastering the information of Daxia within ten years, and being the leader of the officials, isn't that the prime minister of the dynasty?
In 30 years, be able to control the intelligence of the Eastern Wilderness and be crowned king?
Da Xia has never been named a king with a different surname since the Great Ancestor.
This...is a great gift from heaven.
No, it is no longer a gift.
It is unspeakable love.
It simply means that Gu Jinnian is not the prince. If this is the prince, the prince should stop arguing with His Royal Highness Qin Wang, otherwise it will be embarrassing.
However, Gu Jinnian seemed very calm.
Maybe it's because the time traveler is too used to the boss painting cakes.
So I really don't feel much. Of course, there is another reason. I am a super powerful, nothing more than a super super super super super super.
It is not meaningful.
But thanks anyway.
"The minister leads the decree, thank you Your Majesty."
For this errand, Gu Jinnian did not choose to refuse, because there were so many preparations, he just wanted to take it down.
This is of great benefit to me.
Great Xia Official Chamber of Commerce.
It is a great artifact for him to control the world's public opinion in the future.
"Your Majesty, I have two requests."
Gu Jinnian continued to speak.
"You said."
Emperor Yongsheng was in a boundless mood and asked directly.
"First, build a place in the capital, preferably near Daxia Academy, covering an area of at least [-] acres, and the student's father will dispatch soldiers to guard it. Except for His Majesty, no one else is allowed to enter without the student's permission. , and asked the Ministry of Industry to send [-] outstanding craftsmen to cooperate with the students."
"At least 500 must be under the age of 25."
This was Gu Jinnian's first request.
"allow."
Emperor Yongsheng directly agreed, this is not a problem at all.
"Secondly, this chamber of commerce must be crowned with the name of the royal family. Your majesty can't mind it. Of course, the students will not do anything out of the ordinary, and they will trade normally. What's more, if the chamber of commerce earns money in the future, it will belong to me."
This is the second point.
Since the chamber of commerce is established, the royal family must be involved, otherwise it will be difficult to start a chamber of commerce from scratch.
"It doesn't matter, I will allow your Chamber of Commerce to be tax-free for another ten years."
Emperor Yongsheng praised Haikou.
Whether it is a chamber of commerce or not, what he values is intelligence.
To put it bluntly, how much money can Gu Jinnian make in business?
As long as the annual gold expenditure of 20 taels is guaranteed, don't exceed too much, and Emperor Yongsheng will be very happy.
As for how much to earn?
He didn't think he could make money.
I really earned it, how much can I have?
1000 taels? 1 taels? 10 taels?So what if you can hold on to 100 taels a year?
It can be regarded as making Gu Jinnian happier, directly exempting from tax.
What a money junkie.
"Okay, Your Majesty, then you can write it in the imperial decree and get it stamped."
Gu Jinnian smiled.
duty free?
Thank you then.
"Okay, I'm afraid that I will go back on my word."
"It's just earning some money, no matter how much you earn, I won't care about it."
"You look down on me."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, a little annoyed, is he that kind of person?
Just a little money?
Ha ha.
"Okay, Jinnian, I still have something to do, so I'll go back to the palace first."
"Your matter, I will arrange for you next month. If you move too much, it will attract some attention. Take your time."
Emperor Yongsheng said that he was going back to the palace.
As for things, indeed, you can't act too hastily, take your time, and don't rush this month.
"Long live Your Majesty."
Gu Jinnian smiled.
And Wei Xian immediately took out 1000 silver notes, worth [-] taels of gold, in a thick stack.
After accepting it, Gu Jinnian felt even happier.
It feels like the future is getting better and better.
in this way.
Emperor Yongsheng left.
With Wei Xian and Liu Yan.
After walking out of Daxia Academy, Emperor Yongsheng couldn't help smiling even more.
"Wei Xian, Liu Yan."
"Did you find out?"
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, smiling.
Seeing the emperor so happy, the two felt very happy.
It's just that they didn't find anything.
So no answer.
"It's Jinnian."
"It looks more and more like me."
"Hahahahaha."
Emperor Yongsheng laughed out loud.
Very hearty.
Wei Xian and Liu Yan were slightly silent, but immediately smiled.
Boldly said.
"exactly."
"Your Majesty is right."
-
Add updates for the leader Lin Tianyu!
Eleven thousand five hundred words.
There is still today, but the old rules, it is estimated to be around 11.55 in the evening.
There are still a few chapters left, I forgot, and I will ask Wu Ya later.
Brothers, ask for a monthly pass! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Ask for a monthly pass! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
(End of this chapter)
to the sanctuary.
Following the sound of Emperor Yongsheng's voice, the place became extremely quiet for a while.
But who would have thought that Emperor Yongsheng would appear at this time?
At this time, outside the school, a few figures appeared. They were the figures of Emperor Yongsheng, Wei Xian, and Liu Yan. Two eunuchs stood behind, and Emperor Yongsheng stood with his hands behind his back. .
"Students pay homage to the sage, may the sage live long and live long."
In an instant, everyone stood up and saluted. They had no official positions, but they were students of Daxia Academy. They could be regarded as disciples of the Son of Heaven.
Even Gu Jinnian couldn't help standing up to salute at this moment.
But for Gu Jinnian, it was.
What a coincidence.
As soon as I pretended to beep and said a word, the emperor appeared.
And the most important thing is that the second half of the sentence was not spoken.
"Jinnian, tell me, let me see how simple your method is."
Emperor Yongsheng said expressionlessly.
"My lord, the student still hasn't finished speaking."
Gu Jinnian looked a little embarrassed.
"What?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
"There's an easier way, but I don't know how to do it."
Gu Jinnian lowered his head and made a sound, and the students in the hall couldn't help lowering their heads and holding back their laughter.
But Emperor Yongsheng was a little angry.
But he knew Gu Jinnian well, this kid was cautious, there was really no way and it was impossible for him to talk nonsense.
It's just that I don't want to say it.
"come out."
Emperor Yongsheng shouted angrily.
At that moment, Gu Jinnian walked out without saying a word.
After walking for about a stick of incense, when they came to a quiet place, the voice of the old uncle could not help but sound.
"In the future, you must be cautious when speaking outside. Don't say anything outside. Once you say something wrong, it will be recorded by someone. Sooner or later, something will happen. You are the son of the world, and you are my nephew. How many people are staring at you? Are you not sure?" number?"
Pulling Gu Jinnian out, Emperor Yongsheng's first words were a lesson.
He wasn't afraid that Gu Jinnian would cause some trouble, but he was worried that Gu Jinnian's nonsense would easily cause trouble.
"Enenn."
"Uncle taught me that."
Gu Jinnian nodded.
Seeing Gu Jinnian's performance, Emperor Yongsheng was actually very happy in his heart. For some reason, he was in a good mood seeing Gu Jinnian, but he was still a little angry, so he took this opportunity to beat his nephew.
"I heard that you built some kind of Qilin Pavilion. You should carefully consider this matter yourself, and don't make it into a clique for personal gain. Otherwise, uncle will not be able to help you."
Emperor Yongsheng continued to speak, mentioning this matter.
Hearing this, Gu Jinnian couldn't help frowning.
"Uncle, the purpose of my Qilin Pavilion is to help each other and learn from each other, and the members of the cabinet are not allowed to use family power. It is completely to grow each other, and I hope that one day I can contribute to the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Who told you about this? This person has a bad mind. He just wants to provoke the relationship between our uncle and nephew. Please tell me who told me, uncle. Don't worry, I will say that it was Eunuch Wei Xian who told me. I promise not to give it to you." You're causing trouble."
Gu Jinnian has a righteous face, good guy, we have a traitor in our midst?
I am a group of ignorant urchins, if I come up with something casually, the emperor will know about it, and someone must have said it secretly.
But when Gu Jinnian said this, Eunuch Wei Xian was stunned, and the gentle smile on his face froze instantly.
Good guy, if you don't cause trouble for His Majesty, just cause trouble for the miscellaneous family?You are really a good nephew of His Majesty.
"Hmph, do you still need someone else to sue? Your people joined this Qilin Pavilion, and ran home happily, threatening to sever ties with their biological father, saying that they would not rely on family power."
"Being whipped hard by his father, I probably didn't tell you about it, so it got to my ears."
"Jinnian, you are still young, I don't care how you mess around, but when you come out of the academy, you are going to be crowned and a marquis, you are mature, I know, you are full of the Gu family, and you can't hide it I."
"Now you can talk about your age, but you won't be able to in the future. After all, I am the emperor. Even if I want to favor you, I must have a reasonable excuse. Otherwise, I will forcibly favor you, which is not good for you."
"do you understand?"
Emperor Yongsheng was a little too earnest.
Maybe in another seven or eight months, Gu Jinnian will take the imperial examination after graduating from Daxia Academy. Once the imperial examination is over, there is no need to say anything, he must be the number one scholar.
Then he will enter the court and become an official.
It doesn't matter how noisy you are now, you are young.
But if you can be crowned as a marquis, gain fame in the examination, and become an official in the court, then you can't joke about it.
Why is no one bothering Gu Jinnian now?Even if you are looking for trouble, are you looking for trouble for the Gu family?
It's because Gu Jinnian was a child and didn't reach the crown.
But when Gu Jinnian really reached the crown and became an official in the court, every move, every word and deed on weekdays may become a point of attack for others in the court tomorrow.
So he had to pave the way in advance to avoid any accidents.
"Nephew understands, please rest assured uncle."
What I have to say is that these words are indeed from the heart, Gu Jinnian understands, so he didn't play sloppy.
Speaking of here.
Emperor Yongsheng glanced at the surrounding scenery, and then spoke slowly.
"Jin Nian, what do you think about the resignation of the officials?"
Emperor Yongsheng opened his mouth and asked like this.
As soon as he said this, Gu Jinnian immediately showed an angry expression.
"It should be killed."
"These bastards eat the king's salary one by one, but they don't share the worries for the king, but provoke you, uncle."
"Everyone deserves to be killed."
"Isn't this group of people just relying on uncle, you want to be a wise king, so they act recklessly and recklessly?"
"If you don't kill their vigor, how can you let them know that this Great Xia belongs to you, Uncle?"
When Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, what he said almost reached Emperor Yongsheng's heart.
But Emperor Yongsheng knew that these were just good words.
Pure flattery.
So my heart is happy. After all, my nephew is my nephew, and I know that I love my uncle.
But the serious thing still has to be said.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense here, and tell me your opinion."
Emperor Yongsheng said, this kind of flattery, just listen to a few words, the main thing is to hear what Gu Jinnian thinks.
"Huh? What's your opinion?"
Gu Jinnian looked at Emperor Yongsheng and asked.
"Don't pretend to be confused, your brain is indeed flexible, just like our Li family, if you have an idea, just say it, don't pretend here."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke directly and asked Gu Jinnian to express his inner thoughts.
now.
Above the court, the matter of dismissing officials was very rigid. Emperor Yongsheng knew in his heart that if the disturbance continued, there would be big troubles, but if he let himself take a step back, he would be unwilling to live or die.
But let Baiguan take a step back, and he can see that this group of people will not back down.
After all, once they quit, Daxia and the literati will definitely scold them bloody. Isn't the literati most concerned about their reputation?
These officials also care. For them, it is impossible to advance or retreat.
As far as the emperor himself is concerned, it is impossible to advance or retreat.
So he really wanted to hear what Gu Jinnian had to say. Of course, he didn't have much hope, but thought that Gu Jinnian was so talented that he might be able to give him some ideas.
As for Gu Jinnian.
Seeing his old uncle asking like this, he didn't continue to hide it.
"Since this is the case, if you talk about political affairs, your nephew should call himself a student."
Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, talking about political affairs, Gu Jinnian must come up with this sentence.
Although this sentence feels meaningless, it hides a university question.
Well said, if you compliment me a few words, it doesn't matter if I am a student or your nephew.
It's not good to say, I'm just a student of the emperor, not your nephew, you can have an opinion on me, but you can't have an opinion on your nephew, and you asked me to say it.
It was just right.
"Say, stop talking nonsense."
Emperor Yongsheng was laughed angrily by Gu Jinnian, why does this guy feel like he is always on guard against himself, he cares too much about the will of the emperor and his ministers.
But he understands it's a good thing.
From ancient times to modern times, how many dignitaries and princes have died in "arbitrary".
I always feel that I have made great contributions back then, and I always feel that the emperor is still the good brother he was back then.
"Holy."
"Students believe that governing a big country is like cooking small fish."
Gu Jinnian stopped joking and said with an extremely serious expression.
This is his idea.
"Oh?"
"what for?"
When Emperor Yongsheng heard this, he immediately became interested.
Think of governing the country as a small dish?This is really the first time I heard it.
interesting.
"Your Majesty, the Daxia Dynasty has a very large population. In a county, a mansion, a county, even a village, the forces within it are intricate and bottomless."
"The court is a centralized place to manage the world, and every decree is extremely heavy."
"It's like offering delicacies to His Majesty every year. If His Majesty likes a certain kind of fruit, it seems like a trivial matter, but in order to honor His Majesty, court officials will definitely order the local area to plant such fruits."
"And because it is a tribute, it is selected layer by layer. It may be only a hundred or so fruits that are paid for tribute, but each fruit is most likely selected from tens of thousands of fruits."
"In this way, if the imperial court wants to do things, it must not be drastic. It must be like cooking small fresh food. It must be unfolded slowly. What is important is the way of warm water. Under the subtle influence, it will be changed slowly. It will take ten years, 20 years, or even 30 years. The timing is perfect."
"In this way, it will not attract backlash, or even if it attracts backlash, it can be controlled."
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
What he said is actually the words of a sage, and it is also a Confucian classic.
When a country is extremely large, it must not act indiscriminately. It is better to stay still than move. No matter what happens, it must be paved three to fifty years in advance.
Toss little by little, absolutely can't say what I thought of, just do it immediately.
Thousands of people have thousands of faces, it's good for you to think, but it's because you think about it from your perspective, which is a good thing.
It's like the precious banknotes promoted during the Taizu period of the Great Xia Dynasty.
It is a good thing for the economy and a good thing for the country to replace the copper coin trade with paper money, not only to reduce the cost of minting coins, but also to facilitate circulation.
Have you considered the thoughts of the people?Have you considered the issue of currency devaluation?Have you considered the issue of other countries doing things?
I may have considered it, but I will always use a kind of thinking of "should", "maybe" and "maybe" to weaken it. After all, the idea is thought out, you think it is good, you will have a first impression, and you will convince yourself.
However, when it is actually implemented, what is the result?
There was almost a big incident.
In the end, it was implemented for three and a half years. Not only did it not make the country's economy develop, but it went back a few years, and it even caused a lot of trouble. Is this a loss?
Don't be in a hurry.
be slow.
And it must be done bit by bit, because a small decision by the imperial court will be a big deal for all villages, counties and prefectures after it is implemented.
"You mean to say."
"I set up the East Factory, a little too hastily?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked with a calm expression.
"Back to Your Majesty, a little bit."
Gu Jinnian was a little tactful.
Because it is really urgent, there may be a war here soon, the national fortune has just increased, and these ministers are still the ministers of the dragon.
If you're in such a hurry, it's no wonder people don't turn their backs on you.
At least you wait for a group of people to retreat to the second line, or half of them die, it doesn't matter if you take this out again.
To put it bluntly, I still return to the previous statement.
It’s not that they don’t have self-knowledge, but that they accompany you to fight together. As a result, everyone works hard together, and they also treat you respectfully and politely.
It's no wonder it doesn't make trouble.
"Humph."
"If you have no guilt in your heart, why are you afraid of the establishment of the East Factory? In my eyes, they are all thieves with a guilty conscience."
Emperor Yongsheng was a little angry.
What do you mean by half a day, that you are at fault?
Gu Jinnian stopped talking, just shut up honestly.
He didn't need to say anything in anger.
Sure enough, seeing that Gu Jinnian had stopped talking, Emperor Yongsheng remained silent.
"You keep talking."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, looking a little depressed.
"It's true that all the court officials are wrong."
"They did things too badly and disobeyed His Majesty in public."
"However, the matter to be done now, I think it should be to resolve the conflict, not to argue about who is at fault and who is not."
"Therefore, I hope Your Majesty will calm down first. You are the Ninth Five-Year Lord, and these civil servants are watching Your Majesty for making mistakes. If you make mistakes, they will be famous forever."
Gu Jinnian also comforted Emperor Yongsheng.
"Makes sense."
"Then how to resolve this contradiction?"
"But let's say it in advance, Jin Nian, I will not back down."
Emperor Yongsheng opened his mouth, but he still made it clear in advance that if Gu Jinnian came here to be a lobbyist, it would be impossible for him to regress.
"His Majesty."
"Actually, I think that you are not wrong, and neither are the officials. The whole thing is actually a mistake in understanding."
Gu Jinnian nodded, it is unrealistic for the emperor to admit his mistake, but it is also impossible for the officials to admit their mistake.
So Gu Jinnian changed his concept.
"Misunderstanding?"
"What does that mean?"
This time, not only Emperor Yongsheng was curious, but also the two eunuchs.
They also witnessed this incident with their own eyes.
There is nothing wrong with understanding.
The emperor wanted to supervise them.
Baiguan refused to supervise.
It's that simple, what else is there to understand?
Sensing the curious gazes of the three, Gu Jinnian said in a calm manner.
"May I ask Your Majesty, is the intention of setting up the East Factory just to better supervise the officials, grasp the information, wipe out the criminals, rectify the government, and return the world to a bright future?"
Gu Jinnian opened his mouth and asked.
"Correct."
Emperor Yongsheng nodded directly, that's what he thought.
"Then I would like to ask Your Majesty, the reason why the officials refused to agree is that it is really nondescript to let the eunuchs take power, and the eunuchs will deceive the superiors and deceive the inferiors, so as to harm the country and the emperor?"
Gu Jinnian continued to ask.
"Yes."
Emperor Yongsheng nodded, that was indeed the case, there was no problem at all.
"That's a good solution."
Gu Jinnian nodded.
Then he spoke.
"I suggest to Your Majesty that power should be divided in a factory and controlled according to the individual. After all, blocking is worse than sparse."
Gu Jinnian expressed his thoughts.
"Decentralization of power in one factory? Control by person?"
Emperor Yongsheng frowned a little.
"Your Majesty, first of all, don't set up the East Factory, and change the name, for example, the Inspectorate."
"The name is changed, so that these ministers don't have any calculations in their minds. Then His Majesty wants to give Dongchang the power to supervise, review, arrest, finalize the case, and dispatch, right?"
Gu Jinnian guessed.
Although he didn't know the specific situation, the organization of Dongchang should be the merger of the Xuandeng Department and the Zhenfu Department.
"No mistake."
Emperor Yongsheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise, he didn't expect Gu Jinnian to guess so perfectly.
At the same time, he became more and more interested in the strategy proposed by Gu Jinnian.
"Since this is the case, ministers don't want eunuchs to hold power, so let's delegate power."
Gu Jinnian was very straightforward.
"Delegation?"
Emperor Yongsheng frowned.
If he could delegate power, he would have done so long ago. It was because he didn't want to delegate power that he had such a big conflict with the officials.
Gu Jinnian should understand?
Why empower yourself?
"Correct."
"Let go of power."
"Put some power that seems important, but in fact doesn't matter at all."
"Your Majesty, listen to me."
Gu Jinnian knew that Emperor Yongsheng was very confused, but this matter must be made clear, otherwise it would be a bit foggy.
"Supervision, review, apprehension, conviction, dispatch."
"In the eyes of ordinary people, arrest and dispatch are the most powerful."
"But actually, it's not."
"Your Majesty, who do you think is the one who really decides a person's life and death in the Ministry of Punishment?"
Gu Jinnian asked Emperor Yongsheng back.
After saying this, Emperor Yongsheng frowned, he was deep in thought.
On the other hand, Wei Xian and Liu Yan frowned even more.
The person who decides whether a person is alive or dead is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice?Who else.
However, the next moment, Emperor Yongsheng's answer made the two of them stunned.
"The head of the criminal department."
Emperor Yongsheng gave the answer.
Let the two of them be stunned.
Head of the criminal department?A mere sixth-rank official?More powerful than the Minister of the Ministry of Justice?Isn't this bullshit?
However, the emperor said these words, how dare they refute them?
"Your Majesty is wise."
"It's the head of the criminal department."
"Any case in any place must be submitted to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and the first person to handle it is the head of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. If he thinks there is a problem with the case, he can call it back directly, and the various places will supplement the dossier materials, so as to re-determine."
"In other words, if you bribe a criminal department chief, a homicide case can be postponed for as long as possible, and if the criminal department chief is not afraid of taking responsibility, he can completely influence the judgement process of the officials above."
"Of course, Your Majesty, this is just an assumption by the minister. The system of the Ministry of Punishment is extremely strict. Basically, this kind of thing will never happen. Major cases must be handed over to Yuanwailang for handling within fifteen days."
In the process of explaining the logic, Gu Jinnian also added a sentence, lest the emperor think that he was implying that there was a problem with the Ministry of Punishment and causing any trouble to the Ministry of Punishment, that would be bad.
Then Gu Jinnian continued to speak.
"Whether it's the East Factory or the Procuratorate, it's not the Ministry of Punishment, but an institution that reports to Your Majesty alone."
"So the most important power is not to apprehend, nor to decide, nor to dispatch."
"It's monitoring, reviewing, and drafting."
Gu Jinnian spoke up, and his words completely awakened Emperor Yongsheng.
In an instant.
Emperor Yongsheng froze in place.
His eyes were full of astonishment.
Gu Jinnian's words gave him a feeling of enlightenment, not that Gu Jinnian had great political ability, but that Gu Jinnian's thinking ability was too terrifying.
Just take one thing apart, find out the key, and then change everything invisibly.
This is where Emperor Yongsheng was shocked.
He was shocked before because Gu Jinnian was so talented that he was shocked in front of the vision of heaven and earth.
But this moment.
Emperor Yongsheng's political ability shocked Gu Jinnian. This kind of thing was not brought by Confucianism, but a person's innate wisdom.
is true wisdom.
"Separation of powers."
"Supervisory power, drafting power, and review power are in the hands of eunuchs."
"The right to dispatch, arrest, and convict is in the hands of the Great Confucianism."
"In this way, they supervise the Great Xia Dynasty for me. If they find any problem, they can directly draft a proposal, and then go to investigate and interrogate. After the interrogation, if there is no problem, then let it go. If there is a problem."
"Directly handed over to the Procuratorate, the evidence of the crime, the witnesses and the physical evidence are in front of them. Even if these great scholars want to protect these officials, they dare not mess around. So on the surface, they have the right to dispatch, arrest, and convict."
"But it's actually nothing more than the ultimate executor."
"It's just a good name for being unselfish."
"wonderful."
"wonderful."
"It's really wonderful."
Emperor Yongsheng was very smart. After all, the emperor of a country, Gu Jinnian simply stated the logic, and he guessed everything by himself.
Yes.
This is Gu Jinnian's solution.
What was the emperor's purpose in establishing the East Factory?
Supervise the officials, let them know something in their own minds, and at the same time obtain information. Of course, the last point is to strengthen the imperial power.
And what is the reason why the officials did not agree?I don't want to have a sword on my head, not to say that I don't want someone to supervise.
If you really don't want to, what does the Department of Xuandeng and the Department of the Town House do?
It's just that you asked your people to supervise me, we naturally don't agree, it's normal.
So let the great Confucianism take care of it.
Why let the Confucianism take care of it?
Although a great Confucian should uphold his conscience, at least who is a great Confucian?He is a literati, and there are aristocratic families behind him.
To put it bluntly, let's forget about small cases, it's just bad luck to catch whoever.
But if you really come across a big case, it doesn't mean that you are going to lie and give me time to act and operate. It's okay, right?
Anyway, let the great Confucianism come, what can be guaranteed is that he will not favor the emperor, and he does not need to favor his own people too much.
It would not work to let the eunuch come, it is purely partial to the emperor.
Then Gu Jinnian's method is much simpler.
It is not good to call Dongchang a new organization directly, after all, all officials already have an innate aversion to this organization.
Change it to the Inspectorate, and then split the power.
Drafting power, supervision power, review power, let the eunuch come.
Why?
It's very simple, these are the things that servants do, it's hard work.
As for the power of dispatch, the power of arrest, and the power of conviction, would it be nice to let the great Confucians take it?
Is there a feeling that I can determine life and death with a single sentence?
That's right.
But the problem is that the right to draft seems to be in the hands of the eunuch, but in fact it is in the hands of the emperor.
Once the case is drafted, it is considered to be on file. Once the case is on file, the eunuch will investigate. After the investigation is clear, the person will be arrested and interrogated. During the interrogation process, the undercover investigation will be placed in front of you.
You don't have to panic.
Tell me honestly.
Okay, all the witnesses and material evidence are here, and I have pleaded guilty, so let's hand it over to the Procuratorate.
After reading the personal and physical evidence, the Confucian of the Procuratorate read the criminal's confession.
What else do you want me to do?
Follow the procedure to arrest and convict him.
What?Do you want to delay for a while?
Damn it, there are all the witnesses and evidence, delay?Do you think you have a long life?
Witness testimony is complete.
Examination of physical evidence is completed.
The criminal pleaded guilty.
My Supervisor of the Inspectorate does not agree, why do not agree?I'm out of my mind and I just don't agree.
Look what's going on, I think my life is too long, hey, I want the emperor to look at my head, am I skinny?
and so.
The Great Confucianism of the Procuratorate is the emperor's knife, and it is the kind of obedient one who will get a good reputation, and who is not obedient will die together or bear the end of infamy.
Isn't this perfectly in line with Emperor Yongsheng's purpose of establishing the East Factory?
Of course, Gu Jinnian deliberately kept it in mind, and there was another reason for the separation.
That is, the eunuch's family cannot be allowed to dominate.
It is no problem for eunuchs to be in charge of drafting and supervising and reviewing powers, but ironclad evidence must be obtained in order for the Inspectorate to become a knife.
To put it bluntly, there is no hard evidence, and the Inspectorate actually has room to maneuver.
This can be regarded as leaving a way out, otherwise the disaster of the eunuch is not a trivial matter.
Anyway, balance is king.
In fact, Gu Jinnian just took out the logic of the procuratorate and the court. The ancient powers like to be packaged, such as the Ministry of Punishment, the Department of Hanging Lanterns, and the Department of Township. In fact, they all have the same power, but they just control what they do.
This is not good.
It is definitely not possible for one family to dominate, and the separation of powers is the kingly way.
As for whether there are loopholes?
There must be.
Is there anything in this world that has no loopholes?
Who can guarantee that the eunuchs will be obedient?
And who can guarantee that a great Confucianism must be a good person?
Unsure of something.
"Your Majesty is overrated."
Gu Jinnian smiled slightly.
But he kept talking.
"Your Majesty, there is no problem with the power of supervision being held by eunuchs, but the power of drafting must be assisted by a group of people."
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
In fact, the greatest power is the right to draft. If you don’t draft, you will have nothing to do. Regardless of whether you have committed a crime or not, you have been locked anyway.
Therefore, the most powerful is this.
"Oh? Who will assist you?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
"Children from poor families."
Gu Jinnian spoke lightly.
At the end, I added another sentence.
"A humble kid who wants to get ahead."
"Students, but those who don't have an official position, the family is poor, it's better not to be elected."
Gu Jinnian spoke up.
This drafting right must be for the children of poor families, and it must be the kind that has no official position and has not been elected.
Otherwise, if you pass the exam, you will get to know some people more or less.
The most important thing is that scholars who are related must have complex thoughts, and it doesn't matter if they are from poor families, they all want to stand out and do things seriously, and because they have no background, they can open it whenever they want.
It's the bottom one anyway.
Although the power is great, people who are slightly higher than them can be directly expelled.
Form a perfect closed loop.
"it is good."
Emperor Yongsheng instantly understood what Gu Jinnian meant, and he directly agreed.
Afterwards, Emperor Yongsheng swept away his depression and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
"Jinnian, I never thought that you could help me solve such a big problem, okay, okay, okay."
"However, I still have to test you."
"The establishment of the East Factory, what do I want most, and what is the most difficult thing to achieve?"
Emperor Yongsheng was very happy.
Gu Jinnian's words resolved a huge contradiction.
But he still wanted to test Gu Jinnian.
Let's see if Gu Jinnian can guess it.
"Return to Your Majesty, it should be."
"intelligence."
"Manpower."
Gu Jinnian answered almost without thinking.
The establishment of the East Factory is not only for officials, but for intelligence.
And it is all the information of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
The Hanging Lantern Division is also an intelligence agency.
The town government department is also an intelligence agency.
But actually?These two places have long been institutions of powerful families.
Many things, the emperor really did not know.
But after the East Factory was established, the emperor knew everything.
This is the reason why Emperor Yongsheng had to set up the East Factory.
Is it really aimed at officials?
These officials can be removed if they want to be removed, and they need to set up a special organization to remove them?Isn't this superfluous?
Is there any problem with that official?
To put it bluntly, even if you are fine, what about your family?The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister.
Can you control yourself, can you control others?
It's not hard to find trouble.
Depends if you want to or not.
Therefore, it is not important to target officials.
Strengthening the imperial power is not the biggest core.
intelligence.
is the core.
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yongsheng was completely silent.
Things that the civil and military forces of the whole dynasty can't see through.
He didn't expect that Gu Jinnian could see through it.
Of course, some of the officials may have seen through it, so they are so resolutely opposed.
But Gu Jinnian could see through it, which was something he really couldn't think of.
this moment.
Emperor Yongsheng really couldn't look at Gu Jinnian with the same eyes he used to look at him.
My own nephew.
Really incredible.
"In terms of manpower, do you have a good plan?"
After calming down, Emperor Yongsheng asked this question.
Dongchang's biggest problem.
In fact, it is not about implementation.
Sooner or later it will be established.
It's a big deal to wait for the civil and military elders of the Manchu Dynasty to grow old and die, and they can figure it out by themselves.
But the real problem lies in manpower.
Relying on eunuchs is definitely not enough, how many can you send out?
But if you hire people, the cost is too high, so big that the national treasury may not be able to support it.
This is what bothers him.
If this problem can be solved, yesterday he would really kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys, and even directly change a group of ministers, so what's the matter?
Otherwise, if he didn't kill yesterday, would he really be considered bloodless?
What a joke.
"Students don't."
Gu Jinnian shook his head.
"You have."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke directly.
"Not really."
Gu Jinnian still answered like this.
"Don't fool me, just say it."
Emperor Yongsheng actually had no idea, but he thought that Gu Jinnian likes to hide things, so he tried to deceive Gu Jinnian.
Speaking of here.
Gu Jinnian was a little reluctant.
"Actually, it's not that there is no such thing. It's just that the cost is a bit high. I'm afraid that your Majesty will not be able to spend so much money."
When Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, his uncle had already talked about this.
It's not good to say no.
However, Emperor Yongsheng's face was calm, but he couldn't help being shocked in his heart.
Good guy, really?
"How many?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
He had calculated before that if he wanted his intelligence agency to involve the entire Great Xia Dynasty, he would need at least 500 million taels of gold a year.
is the least.
Absolutely nothing more.
So he was curious how much gold Gu Jinnian wanted.
"Say less than 20 taels of gold a year."
"However, it takes a long time. It will take about three years when it involves the Great Xia Dynasty."
"It will take three to five years to control Donghuang."
"For about ten years, it should not be lower than 20 taels of gold per year. There is a possibility that it will exceed the standard, but the probability will not be very high."
Gu Jinnian made a calculation in his mind, and then came up with a relatively conservative estimate.
If you are not conservative, 10 taels of gold is enough.
Of course, you must expand the budget. If it is not enough, you can make it up yourself?Impossible.
"20 taels of gold?"
"Control the Eastern Wilderness?"
At this moment, Emperor Yongsheng couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up directly, and looked at Gu Jinnian with incredulous eyes.
My own budget is 500 million taels of gold a year.
And it was only the Great Xia Dynasty.
Gu Jinnian's goal is to control Donghuang?
How can this prevent Yongsheng from losing his composure?
How the fuck is this possible?
Gu Jinnian wanted to do this, so he directly crowned Gu Jinnian king.
In the future, whoever dared to look at Gu Jinnian in the capital would roll up his sleeves, mount his horse, and slap him twice, and then ask Gu Jinnian if he was angry, or let all the civil and military officials give him two slaps.
Not for anything else, just for Jinnian to be happy.
Silver is not a problem now.
It is to control the information of the Eastern Wilderness.
What is this concept?
Emperor Yongsheng's heart was beating.
If someone else said this, Emperor Yongsheng would have slapped him twice, but Gu Jinnian is different.
The more he got in touch with Gu Jinnian, the more he realized that Gu Jinnian was truly talented and unfathomable, he was a fucking genius.
It's so similar to Yongsheng.
They are all peerless geniuses.
Seeing Emperor Yongsheng's reaction like this, Gu Jinnian frowned a little.
20 taels of gold sounds like a lot.
But how important information is, anyone who is an emperor knows it.
There's no need for this reaction, is there?
A bit of a pattern, okay?
For a big country, intelligence is the most valuable, and it cannot be measured by money.
"His Majesty."
"20 taels of gold a year is really indispensable. No matter how few students there are, there will be no way out."
Gu Jinnian answered.
20 taels of gold, that's the price.
"How to do it?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked directly.
"I can't tell. It takes a month to write an article. The process is very complicated, and it's all in the mind of the minister. If His Majesty wants to know, he can only wait for the students to write slowly."
Gu Jinnian shook his head, he might not be able to tell for a while, really can't tell, this time it's not about hiding something.
"To put it simply."
Emperor Yongsheng was a little anxious.
He doesn't need to know how the process is, he just wants to know a rough idea, a rough idea that can convince himself.
"Chamber of Commerce."
"Establish a chamber of commerce, in the form of a chamber of commerce, to form a huge intelligence network."
"Hey and prosperous in the world, it's all for Lilai."
"The world is full of hustle and bustle, all for the sake of profit."
Gu Jinnian said the key words.
Chamber of Commerce.
Yes.
This seems to be a thing that must be mentioned in some online novels.
Inquire about the news must go to the restaurant.
Although it seems a little mentally retarded, it is actually true. A lot of news is made up by a group of people.
True and false blenders.
For example, the Minister of Rites favored that concubine today, everyone must not know, but the butler must know, right?
The butler kept his mouth shut.
But I can't stand the servant who came with me.
Even if you don't bring slaves, the concubine's maid will always know, right?Do you know what to do when you put on makeup at night?
After the concubine's maid finds out, it's not too much to say a word to her lover, right?
Xianghao went to other places to do errands, and heard everyone talking nonsense, so it's not too much to follow along, right?
As for whether it is true or not, everyone doesn't care, just have fun.
It's just that those who are interested hear it, and it's different.
And what if this caring person belongs to the shopkeeper?
Many things, if you dig deep, you will find that it is not difficult to know the news, it is just that you cannot touch it.
"Do you mean that the establishment of a chamber of commerce is to cover up people's eyes and ears? On the surface, it's doing business, but it's actually collecting intelligence?"
Emperor Yongsheng asked.
"Returning to Your Majesty, it is really business. When doing business, collect information by the way."
"Specializing in intelligence gathering, wouldn't that cost money to support them? Then who can afford it?"
"Their main job is to do business to make money, but they just record the news they hear and report it to the capital. At that time, scholars and eunuchs will sort out and study it."
"If you find something wrong, just investigate it immediately."
Gu Jinnian shook his head.
Do a good job in the chamber of commerce, everyone makes money, and it is the responsibility of the higher level to let the lower level pay attention to the news. If you don’t pay attention to the news, I will change the shopkeeper to see if you are comfortable or I am comfortable.
Moreover, inquiring about information seems to be very advanced, and it sounds like it is very powerful.
What is it actually?
In fact, it’s not just listening to people’s nonsense, leaving the news that you think is useful, going back to check it, finding out it’s true, and keeping it on file.
If it is found to be fake, then let it go.
The group of eunuchs in the palace and those scholars are responsible for categorizing information, gathering pieces of seemingly useless information together, and then letting these poor families who want to get ahead to study carefully.
If you find a problem, or think of something, report it quickly, and credit you for a credit, how much credit you have accumulated, and let you go to a certain place to be a county magistrate, which is also your blessing.
Is it reasonable or not?
"I understand."
"I understand."
"Setting up a chamber of commerce and doing business transactions, although you won't earn much money, you can still earn some money as a subsidy, plus a yearly 20 taels of gold subsidy from the imperial court. In this way, manpower will be available, and a lot of money will be saved. Expenditure, is that what you mean?"
Emperor Yongsheng had completely figured it out.
But he was wrong about one thing.
Who said you can't make money?
But Gu Jinnian didn't say that, it's meaningless to talk about it.
Wait.
For a moment Gu Jinnian frowned, looked at Emperor Yongsheng and said.
"Your Majesty, that's not what you mean?"
Gu Jinnian instantly realized that there was a problem. The Emperor Ganqing's idea was to ask someone for information?
Made, hasty.
Then it shouldn't be 20 taels of gold, it should be 50 taels of gold.
No, 100 million taels will do.
This time it was sloppy.
"Of course I think so, I was just testing you just now."
"Cough cough."
"it is good."
"Gu Jinnian listens to the order."
Emperor Yongsheng coughed, a little embarrassed, but immediately looked serious, and he was going to announce the decree.
"Students accept the order."
Gu Jinnian immediately got up to salute.
"I will entrust you with full responsibility for Daxia's information. I will allocate a fixed amount of 20 taels of gold every year. If you have special needs, you can apply for additional money from me."
"If this matter is handled properly, I promise you to be the head of the Great Xia's officials if you can grasp the information of Daxia within ten years. If you can grasp the information of the Eastern Wilderness within 30 years, I will make you king. If I am no longer in this world, I will leave a legacy , Er can rest assured."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, and the benefits he promised made the hearts of the two eunuchs jump.
Mastering the information of Daxia within ten years, and being the leader of the officials, isn't that the prime minister of the dynasty?
In 30 years, be able to control the intelligence of the Eastern Wilderness and be crowned king?
Da Xia has never been named a king with a different surname since the Great Ancestor.
This...is a great gift from heaven.
No, it is no longer a gift.
It is unspeakable love.
It simply means that Gu Jinnian is not the prince. If this is the prince, the prince should stop arguing with His Royal Highness Qin Wang, otherwise it will be embarrassing.
However, Gu Jinnian seemed very calm.
Maybe it's because the time traveler is too used to the boss painting cakes.
So I really don't feel much. Of course, there is another reason. I am a super powerful, nothing more than a super super super super super super.
It is not meaningful.
But thanks anyway.
"The minister leads the decree, thank you Your Majesty."
For this errand, Gu Jinnian did not choose to refuse, because there were so many preparations, he just wanted to take it down.
This is of great benefit to me.
Great Xia Official Chamber of Commerce.
It is a great artifact for him to control the world's public opinion in the future.
"Your Majesty, I have two requests."
Gu Jinnian continued to speak.
"You said."
Emperor Yongsheng was in a boundless mood and asked directly.
"First, build a place in the capital, preferably near Daxia Academy, covering an area of at least [-] acres, and the student's father will dispatch soldiers to guard it. Except for His Majesty, no one else is allowed to enter without the student's permission. , and asked the Ministry of Industry to send [-] outstanding craftsmen to cooperate with the students."
"At least 500 must be under the age of 25."
This was Gu Jinnian's first request.
"allow."
Emperor Yongsheng directly agreed, this is not a problem at all.
"Secondly, this chamber of commerce must be crowned with the name of the royal family. Your majesty can't mind it. Of course, the students will not do anything out of the ordinary, and they will trade normally. What's more, if the chamber of commerce earns money in the future, it will belong to me."
This is the second point.
Since the chamber of commerce is established, the royal family must be involved, otherwise it will be difficult to start a chamber of commerce from scratch.
"It doesn't matter, I will allow your Chamber of Commerce to be tax-free for another ten years."
Emperor Yongsheng praised Haikou.
Whether it is a chamber of commerce or not, what he values is intelligence.
To put it bluntly, how much money can Gu Jinnian make in business?
As long as the annual gold expenditure of 20 taels is guaranteed, don't exceed too much, and Emperor Yongsheng will be very happy.
As for how much to earn?
He didn't think he could make money.
I really earned it, how much can I have?
1000 taels? 1 taels? 10 taels?So what if you can hold on to 100 taels a year?
It can be regarded as making Gu Jinnian happier, directly exempting from tax.
What a money junkie.
"Okay, Your Majesty, then you can write it in the imperial decree and get it stamped."
Gu Jinnian smiled.
duty free?
Thank you then.
"Okay, I'm afraid that I will go back on my word."
"It's just earning some money, no matter how much you earn, I won't care about it."
"You look down on me."
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, a little annoyed, is he that kind of person?
Just a little money?
Ha ha.
"Okay, Jinnian, I still have something to do, so I'll go back to the palace first."
"Your matter, I will arrange for you next month. If you move too much, it will attract some attention. Take your time."
Emperor Yongsheng said that he was going back to the palace.
As for things, indeed, you can't act too hastily, take your time, and don't rush this month.
"Long live Your Majesty."
Gu Jinnian smiled.
And Wei Xian immediately took out 1000 silver notes, worth [-] taels of gold, in a thick stack.
After accepting it, Gu Jinnian felt even happier.
It feels like the future is getting better and better.
in this way.
Emperor Yongsheng left.
With Wei Xian and Liu Yan.
After walking out of Daxia Academy, Emperor Yongsheng couldn't help smiling even more.
"Wei Xian, Liu Yan."
"Did you find out?"
Emperor Yongsheng spoke, smiling.
Seeing the emperor so happy, the two felt very happy.
It's just that they didn't find anything.
So no answer.
"It's Jinnian."
"It looks more and more like me."
"Hahahahaha."
Emperor Yongsheng laughed out loud.
Very hearty.
Wei Xian and Liu Yan were slightly silent, but immediately smiled.
Boldly said.
"exactly."
"Your Majesty is right."
