Chapter 279: No Salary to Shaofu
Xue Qing now also has a plan to slowly transfer the Heavenly Dao out of Wuling. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info directly use Taoyuan as a base. And the function of training and research should also be preserved in the west.
After all, it is much safer to go abroad than at home.
If you want to talk about the population, where did you get such idle labor in this era, a piece of land and a family, staying there for generations, and the land annexation is not very serious. Although the nobles and the powerful have a lot of land in their hands, after all, the number of nobles is not very large.
The production method is too primitive, not to mention slash-and-burn farming, anyway, there are still many places where farm tools are still wood. It was only after the former prime minister Sun Hong took office that he began to vigorously promote iron farming tools. The mode of production is so backward that the land locks the people up so tightly that there is not much idle labor at all.
Therefore, the emperor wanted to expand the army, to move to Hexi to Shibian, and to build a large number of people. but also officials at all levels. It seems that there is not enough everywhere. Even the imperial court is not enough, and a second-tier organization like Tiandao is even more stretched.
It's not like fighting a war or doing hard labor. Orders have been issued, and everything over the age of fourteen and under the age of sixty will be brought over. After the events of the late Qin Dynasty, the Han court learned lessons and was more cautious about the matter of conscription. If you want to be reckless, you can't be reckless, whether it is the Han army or the conscription, you have to pay money, not only to the salary of the party, but also to the family There are burial expenses.
Therefore, a very important item of the Han Dynasty's recuperation policy was to encourage childbearing, and a non-marriage tax would be levied if they did not marry in their teens. If you have more children, the government will reward them accordingly. In this way, a group of strong laborers can grow in more than ten years.
Xue Qing was in a daze at the Jian Mu sent by Qiu Ping, but Ruhua came over and said, "Your Highness, the Middle Young Mansion is here." ”
Xue Qing frowned, it couldn't be that the Prime Minister's Mansion was making trouble for the Shaofu again. Then he put away all the slips. He sat down behind a few cases and said, "Please come in." ”
Zhongshaofu is equivalent to the deputy of the Shaofu supervisor. At this moment, he ran in in a panic and said, "Your Highness, it's not good, Your Highness." ”
Xue Qing reprimanded: "What are you yelling about, say good things." ”
The head of the middle and young mansion said: "Your Highness, today the next official went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to present this month's report. I called the Prime Minister's Mansion back. ”
Xue Qing was stunned for a moment, she really wanted to cut off her salary. "On what grounds did they reject the report?" ”
Zhong Shaofu hurriedly said: "No, I didn't say anything and came back." I sat there for two hours and no one paid attention. ”
Xue Qing said: "It's okay without his instructions, anyway, the young man's fortune didn't go from the accounts of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but went directly to the inside." Reporting him is only a nominal thing, if he doesn't approve the report, can we still starve to death? ”
Zhong Shaofu hurriedly said: "Your Highness, now that it is an eventful season, if there is such a trouble, his Prime Minister's Mansion just has the truth to attack Shaofu." I'm afraid that even other things will have to be delayed at that time. ”
Xue Qing said: "That's for sure. Do you think he has no truth and will support the issuance of White Deer coins? How can it be. You don't have to worry about this, just withdraw it from the treasury according to the report. When the time comes, he Prime Minister's Mansion will pull the skin and let them come to the palace. You, just get the job done first. Spring ploughing is about to begin. If you miss the day. That's more than worth the loss, you have to concentrate on doing this well. ”
Zhongshaofu wanted to speak and stopped. But Xue Qing asked him to do so, and he couldn't help it.
As soon as the Zhongshaofu left, Ruhua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought His Highness was going to make trouble again." I'm worried about the dead slaves. ”
Xue Qing smiled: "In the future, there will be more confrontation between the Shaofu and the Prime Minister's Mansion, what is this matter." It won't lead to any trouble, just watch. Around the time of the Spring Festival, that's when the real trouble comes. ”
Ruhua sighed and said: "Alas, I really don't know what the emperor thinks, that piece of skin is 400,000 yuan." Isn't this forcing the ministers to go bankrupt? ”
Xue Qing said: "It's a pity that some ministers haven't realized this yet, and when this knife really falls on their heads, they will panic." ”
Don't bother to care about him, Zhuang Qingzhai is so old and stubborn, he can live for a few years, maybe he will be angry with Emperor Wu in a few days. There's no need to be angry with him.
This Huo Qu is sick, so he is naturally unwilling to stay at home, and it seems to be almost a month. The body is slightly better, although the fracture has not healed as before, but it is not interesting to lie at home after all. Then he took a crutch. Step by step, I went to work in the shogunate. He is also ashamed to say that walking around is conducive to recovery. Fortunately, he went, and he could help arrange the infiltration plan by the way.
Whatever, early tomorrow, the White Deer Coin will be on sale, and it depends on whether you are conscious or not. So let Ruhua send someone to Shaofu, and ordered to send official documents to various subordinate officials, even the princes and nobles of the world, and the governors of various places. Generals in the field. Say that starting early tomorrow morning, please go to Shaofu to subscribe for Bailu coins.
If the Prime Minister's Mansion wants to make trouble, it will not run to the Shaofu to make trouble, and when they come to subscribe, they will know how dark the old lady's methods are. The emperor gives you three tasks, and the old lady will add one to you. I don't think the emperor will care. It doesn't matter if you care, you have the ability to change people, and it's the same as who wants to do your job.
Early the next morning. Xue Qing came to Shaofu to guide the issuance of Bailu coins, and entered the gate of Shaofu, which was the issuing office at the edge of the courtyard. Several officials sat by the windows on this side of the courtyard, and the doors were naturally locked. It's like a bank in the future.
Each window has an empty ledger preparation record. There are those who are reviewed, those who are checked, and those who are specially used to withdraw deer coins in the back, and there are those who are specially waiting to collect money. All kinds of weighing, weights. Swing it out. Because there will be a large amount of cash involved. So security inside and outside has been strengthened. At the same time, guards and chariots and horses are also prepared outside, and the cash can be escorted to the provincial treasury at any time. And the treasury has already vacated the treasury, just waiting for the money.
There is also a VIP area next to it, which is specially for those officials who come to handle it in person, with drinks, snacks and fruits. After all, they are all ******, and the counter is for the subordinates who handle it on behalf of the officials.
It opens from early in the morning to noon. Stunned, no one came to buy White Deer coins. A group of guards and officials who seemed to be on the verge of a great enemy were about to doze off.
Xue Qing is not in a hurry, she doesn't care about this side of things at all, but in the office in the back (eh, can you call it an office?) Anyway, it's a meaning. Handle official business. At this time, the workload of Shaofu is indeed huge enough, and there are thousands of things. Fortunately, the people below are quite competent. Xue Qing took control of the accounts and the treasury. There aren't many things that can go wrong. So it's working pretty well. (To be continued.) )
