Poor family mother and son

During the reign of Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty, there was such a stalk: why not eat minced meat.

Emperor Hui of Jin refers to Sima Zhong, the second emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, the great-grandson of Sima Yi of the Three Kingdoms.

Probably because his father, Sima Yan, likes to engage in the "Yangche Wangxing" thing too much, and can't do prenatal and postnatal care, which makes Sima Zhong a little mentally handicapped.

But the child is the legitimate son, the legal heir to the royal family, and he is studious, inquiring, and kind.

Hearing the cry of frogs, he would ask: "Why do they call?" Hearing that someone died of starvation, he was shocked and pityed: "There is no food to eat, why don't you eat meat porridge?"

Can you call him "Versailles"?cannot!Because he doesn't smell like he has a good life.

Can you say he has malice?cannot!Because he sympathized with the starving people, he just proposed a solution.

You can say he has mental problems, but you can't doubt his motives.

Furthermore, no one took him to see how the common people live. He has no experience in this area, so how can he be expected to speak the right words?

What can children understand if adults don't teach them.

People of different classes have different concerns and see different worlds, so the direction of thinking about problems is naturally different, which may have limitations or deviations.

If the fourth prince came here to talk to the emperor today, Liu Ju-neng, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, reminded him that the emperor would probably beat the fourth prince again.

Not to mention whether the shepherds in Voss have the economic strength to carry wheat seeds with them, even if they do, will they bring wheat seeds instead of wheat cakes;

Just talking about the meaning of the word "barren land", I ask you, the emperor and his son, can you think about it?If crops can be grown in the jade mine, can the mining team of the Chu family be idle?

They are all trying to grow vegetables on the Gobi Desert. If it is possible, can they not plant all the crops on Yujing Mountain?
Wouldn't it be better to harvest jade while harvesting?
It's a pity that today is a father and son chatting, and there are no outsiders around.

Therefore, the emperor has been pondering the feasibility of using the power of seeds to mine jade.

The more I think about it, the more feasible it becomes. Moso bamboo can break through green bricks and grow out. Why can't we use this method to pick jade?
The emperor even felt that it was the end of the year, and he could see something that would make him happy again!

The next day, the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

Although there is no court meeting, but in order to show enthusiasm for work, the high-ranking officials from various ministries still came to have a look. What if the emperor also came?

You have to let the leader see what you do, otherwise who will you show it to?
So the content of today's unofficial court meeting is basically that the emperor wishes everyone an early year in advance, praises the hard work of the courtiers for a year, and encourages them to continue to work hard in the coming year.

Zheng Chunqiu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry who licked Chu Qing's body like a leech to suck blood for extra money, heard that the emperor ordered the ministers of various ministries to work hard, but he ignored it when he came to him, and felt a little unbalanced.

Six Shangshu, boasting five, but missing yourself?Your majesty, you can't miss this honest man who is hard-working and hard-working!

"Your Majesty!" Zheng Chunqiu straddled the line and reported: "After the summary and settlement, this year the Ministry of Industry, under the leadership of the Minister, has been working step by step, and there have been new updates, so that all the progress of the Ministry of Industry has been improved in an orderly manner. It's just... "

Zheng Chunqiu showed hesitation and shame: "It's just that the Ministry of Industry Counselor knew that Chu Qing had no communication with the minister, so that under the premise of such a good expansion of the jade mine, he didn't produce anything. The minister is really ashamed!"

The jade mine was not established by Daxuan, but the four princes of Voss compensated Chu Qing with the three-year exploitation right of the jade mine. It had nothing to do with the imperial court or the Ministry of Industry.

But Zheng Chunqiu chose to assign this matter to the Ministry of Industry, which is equivalent to assigning it to the Daxuan Kingdom.

It must also say "nothing comes out" and directly annihilate the jade shipped back from Voss this year.

It even brought out Chu Qing's status as a consultant of the Ministry of Industry, saying that Chu Qing had no communication and report with the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Industry was unable to guide and control his work.

A leech is just a leech, not afraid of being strangled to death, but afraid of not being able to suck blood.

Yesterday, the fourth prince talked about the method of using the power of seeds to mine jade. Today, the minister of the Ministry of Industry happened to mention jade mines. The emperor could not help but sit up straight, waiting for the next article.

"Your Majesty, now the Yushi River Beach has extended fifteen miles downstream, and the mine has doubled in size along the snow line, and the height has not yet been capped..." Zheng Chunqiu said while gesticulating, reminding everyone how big the area is.

"Such a large area, since Chu Qing can't make full use of it by himself, it's better for the Ministry of Industry to send craftsmen to dig it. After all, there are specialties in the art industry, and only by using the right talents can we get twice the result with half the effort."

Get twice the result with half the effort!yes!

The emperor wanted to describe the mining method mentioned by the fourth prince yesterday, but there was a word on his lips, but he couldn't remember it.
If there is a method, there are experienced talents, and the mining area has expanded, how can we not get more jade?

The emperor felt more and more that this method was feasible, so he wanted to speak.

"I object!" The voice of Liu Ju, Minister of the Household Department, sounded: "Your Majesty, I object! Master Chu has invested 6000 people in the jade mine, all of which are funded by herself, and this jade mine is not owned by the imperial court. I think this is not right. Sure!"

"Hmm..." The emperor hesitated for a moment, Liu Ju was right, but there was only more than a year left, if he couldn't produce more jade, the opportunity would be missed!

Although there will be a lot of jade flowing into the national treasury if the Ministry of Industry sends people, it will also make a lot of money, which is better than the private treasury with little income and the national treasury with no income, right?
Whether it's the national treasury or private treasury, it's all mine!

Time was running out, and the emperor felt that the most important thing was to harvest more jade, so he asked, "Zheng Aiqing, if the Ministry of Industry sends people, how much will it cost?"

expenditure?Zheng Chunqiu looked at Liu Ju.

Liu Jusu had a serious face, every wrinkle on his face said "no money", and the drooping corners of his mouth showed his resistance to the emperor's permission of such a proposal.

Public is public, private is private.

As the finance minister of a country, he can naturally guess that the emperor has an interest relationship with the Chu family, and he can even guess the proportion of the emperor's share.

But that is the emperor's private matter, how can it be confused with the treasury revenue and expenditure? !

But he couldn't tell.

The emperor is the one who rules the world, not him.

Zheng Chunqiu glanced at Liu Ju from the corner of his eye, thinking that that stingy old guy didn't know how much he had benefited from Chu Qing, and he always vented his anger with Chu Qing.

At this time, if the account is paid and how much money is required, the old man will definitely jump out and say that he has no money, and the emperor may not be willing to pay the money.

After thinking about it, Zheng Chunqiu replied: "Your Majesty, there is no need for expenses, this is just a normal job of the officials of the Ministry of Industry, they receive the imperial salary, how can they need other money?
What I mean is that it is enough for the Ministry of Industry to send experienced and well-educated people to assist Chu Qing. What Lao Shangshu said is that it is Chu Qing's business after all, but it is also related to the court's face;
Being able to mine more jade is only beneficial to me and has no disadvantages;
And since Chu Qing is a counselor of our Ministry of Industry, even though she never reports to the minister on official matters, since the minister is her official, he should still help and correct me;
The minister just said to send a few people to guide. At most, Chu Qing helped arrange meals, and it didn't cost her a few coins, after all, they were paid by the imperial court;

Besides, if Chu Qing were to pay their salaries, wouldn't they be hired by Chu Qing?Chen didn't mean that. "

That's a beautiful statement.

Zheng Chunqiu stated that he had no intention of coveting Chuqing's private property, and promoted himself to the level of a leader helping his subordinates. This is Shangguan's care and love for his subordinates.

At the same time, it was also to contribute to making more profits for the Daxuan court, not to say that since it was a clear business, the Ministry of Industry would ignore it.

Chu Qing could ignore Shangguan, but Zheng Chunqiu wanted to think about the interests of the court and the country.

He, Zheng Chunqiu, always starts from the overall situation, as long as it is beneficial to the country, he doesn't care about personal gains or losses.

This is Master Zheng's pattern, and this is Master Zheng's patriotic feelings.

Obtaining more jade is not only beneficial to Chu Qing, but also beneficial to the country. Even if Chu Qing is narrow and selfish, Zheng Chunqiu has no past suspicions and no selfishness. He only wants to get things done and run well.
