"Your Majesty, Lord Xu Guangqi Xu asks to see you."

Just as Zhu Youxiao was working hard to select suitable people, Liu Ruoyu's voice sounded softly.

"Xu Guangqi? What did he come to me for? Could it be that something happened to the Tiangong workshop? Zhu Youxiao muttered in his heart. Still, he said, "Xuan! ”

Soon, Xu Guangqi walked in under the guidance of the eunuch in Tsing Yi, Zhu Youxiao folded the information, and then said with a smile, "Put Xu Aiqing on a chair." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After some courtesy, Xu Guangqi sat down peacefully.

"Aiqing came to look for me, could it be that there is a change in the Heavenly Palace workshop?" Zhu Youxiao asked with concern, why he didn't care, the Tiangong Workshop was his industrial base, and it was the guarantee for him to change the world.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, everything is fine in the Tiangong Workshop, all the current generation is on the right track, and the production capacity is increasing day by day. Some of the things and techniques that His Majesty conceived were also experimented with under the hands of skilled craftsmen. Xu Guangqi did not directly say his intention, but first roughly explained the situation of the Tiangong workshop.

Zhu Youxiao didn't urge, listened carefully, and asked one or two questions from time to time.

After about a quarter of an hour, Xu Guangqi stopped, took a sip of tea, and asked, "Your Majesty is interested in the old minister taking charge of the Inner Mansion?" ”

"Oh, how can Aiqing see it?" Zhu Youxiao asked strangely, he had never said this idea to anyone, and Xu Guangqi's title of Inner Governor was the same as Wang Wenyan's, and there was nothing special about it.

"It's already done." Xu Guangqi said with a smile, "The ministers look at the various technologies in His Majesty's shipyard, salt works, and Tiangong workshops, as well as some of the symbols used, all of which are similar to the West, and in Western knowledge, no one can be left and right by the ministers. ”

"Aiqing is really discerning." Zhu Youxiao praised, of course, this is somewhat contingency, in fact, this is not difficult to participate, looking at the composition of his inner house, there are almost few civil officials, Xu Guangqi can be said to be the first, and then there are Song Yingxing and Sun Yuanhua, but these two are now his students, and it is impossible to compete with him for positions, so the candidate in charge of the inner government is obvious.

"The old minister has a word, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Xu Guangqi smiled and did not continue the topic, but changed his head.

"Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." Zhu Youxiao bowed his head and signaled the other party to rest assured and said boldly.

"Your Majesty's talent is heavenly, and with the blessing of the heavens, you have a lot of unspeakable knowledge." Speaking of this, Xu Guangqi paused and glanced at Zhu Youxiao strangely. This is the reason he found for Zhu Youxiao, otherwise he would not be able to explain how these things came about.

"In this effect, in terms of knowledge that is beneficial to the country and the people, the old minister cannot teach His Majesty. However, His Majesty is still young, and there are many omissions in the internal government system, and there is nothing to do at present, but it is not conducive to the future. ”

"Oh, what is Aiqing referring to?" Zhu Youxiao asked curiously, the inner mansion was completely created by him, and there was no object for reference at all, so it was normal for mistakes and omissions, but he didn't expect that the first one to be proposed was Xu Guangqi.

He thought it would be Wang Wenyan.

"The mistake is on the envoy of the inner governor." Xu Guangqi pointed to himself, the problem was on this title

"Your Majesty's intentions, the old minister vainly estimated. The inner government was restructured for the inner court, and it did not use eunuchs, but private individuals. It can not only avoid the suspicion of eunuchs interfering in politics, but also take private talents. And His Majesty does not set a grade, which naturally means to indicate that this is not a public weapon, but a private property. This is so natural that it can be changed at will without restrictions. ”

"Your Majesty is too high in the cabinet, re-established the prime minister, and later re-established the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and collected all the military power in the world. However, the matter of the soldiers, the place of life and death, the slightest carelessness, will be a catastrophe, so His Majesty set up an inner government, to private practice, the wealth obtained by the army, to the real army, in order to balance the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. I don't know what the old minister thinks, but there are mistakes and omissions. ”

Xu Guangqi said a lot of words, and guessed Zhu Youchu's plan not bad at all. Zhu Youxiao was only slightly surprised at the beginning, and then returned to normal. He did not hide these things, and it is not surprising that the elites of this era can see it.

"What Aiqing said is what I think in my heart." Zhu Youxiao replied lightly, saying that until now, he still hasn't seen through what Xu Guangqi said.

"Those who make mistakes are private." Xu Guangqi smiled and spit out a sentence.

"Private?" Zhu Youxiao asked rhetorically.

"However, although it is convenient for private individuals, their essence is still a white body, without grade, and they kneel when they see officials, and they can't resist. There is a saying in Confucianism, everything is inferior, only reading is high, and the minister thinks that everything is inferior, only to be an official! If you don't give an official body, your personal mind will be uneasy, and your heart will be uneasy, and disaster will be born. Xu Guangqi described the problems he saw in a few words.

"Everything is inferior, only to be an official!" Zhu Youxiao muttered a sentence, carefully thinking about the deep meaning underneath.

China has been an official-based society since ancient times, and since the emergence of bureaucracy, it has rapidly become the mainstream, and it has never withdrawn. Even in later generations, various professions have risen and their status has risen, and the thinking of being an official is still strong. A very clear example of this is among his former colleagues.

That colleague is quite capable, he struggled to become a manager, with a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, but his family was not satisfied, so he was forced to take the civil service exam, and finally became a prison guard, only three or four thousand a month, far less than at the beginning.

This shows the strong degree of the Chinese official-oriented thinking, which is still in the modern era of great ideological emancipation. In today's feudal dynasty, such ideas will only become stronger, not less.

Just look at those clerical officials who have been honest and diligent recently, just a rumor of the integration of officials and officials, let them be cautious and strive to go to Bo Na with a glimmer of hope.

If the Inner Mansion really achieves Zhu Youxiao's goal and becomes another pillar, and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the Cabinet are three-legged, then those who start from the end of the day and are only satisfied with the rich material life will really have strange thoughts.

If their own system remains unchanged, and someone allows them to be official, what will be the consequences.......

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and the fine beads of sweat suddenly dissatisfied his forehead.

"Thank you for the reminder, I almost missed a big thing." Zhu Youxiao thanked Xu Guangqi. He made the mistake of dogmatism, thinking that like many people in later generations, giving a company executive position could leave talents to appease, but times have changed, and what people need has also changed. In the eyes of the people of this era, the company's executives are a fart, even if they are state-owned enterprises, they are not a shopkeeper, they are errands, and they can't glorify their ancestors, earn their lives, and shade their descendants.

"The old minister is ashamed, Your Majesty is talented, even if there is no reminder from the old minister, Your Majesty should be able to wake up." Xu Guangqi returned the salute and said modestly.
