Chapter 366: Ten Years of Jianwen

When time marched into the tenth year of Jianwen with an unstoppable pace, and when the loud bell rang at the turn of the year, the entire Ming monarch and ministers ushered in the most crucial year.

"Your Majesty has been in power for ten years, and it coincides with the end of the first five-year period, from the center to the locality, you must show your heart and congratulatory gifts."

Not to mention anything else, just the local report auspicious book, the General Administration Department received nearly a hundred!

Not to mention anything like the Wanmin umbrella and the Wanmin Book, after all, as long as it requires the signature of the people, it is the cheapest and least valuable.

How many are genuinely self-organized?

This thing is the same as the happiness of street visits, the answer is good to send bags of rice, and the answer is not good, cut it directly.

"If organized by the local grain chief, each household will send ten catties of brown rice."

A letter from Jin Yiwei made Zhu Yunwen suddenly feel that the so-called Wanmin umbrella in front of him had lost its value.

Compared with these, on the contrary, those auspicious Rui seem to be a little sincere.

After all, it's a lot of investment.

Quanzhou newspaper fishermen saw the 'dragon', salvaged up is really a huge volume, head and tail nearly three feet long, orange red shiny arowana, then sent people into Nanjing overnight, in order to ensure that the time is still alive, Quanzhou government also built a water wheel, every three hours to change the water.

What is written in the book is that the fishermen watched the so-called 'dragon' take on the shape of a fish when it fell into the water.

In fact, it was bought back from Nanyang by Quanzhou maritime merchants for tens of thousands of taels of silver, and in order to get such a fish back to life, they hired hundreds of experienced and water-based fishermen in Nanyang to go to the sea to fish.

"This fish is so beautiful."

To be honest, this is the first time Zhu Yunwen has seen this so-called red arowana in his two lives, and even he can't take his eyes off it, so it's no wonder that Xiao Wenqi was greatly admired.

"Beautiful, of course beautiful, dozens of fish dyed red with human lives, can they not be beautiful?"

In order to go to the sea to catch this fish, Quanzhou maritime merchants opened an astronomical amount of hanging red, and some of them were Nanyang fishermen who were not afraid of death and took risks.

"The fish will be sent to the Shangshan Bureau to be killed, try to see if it can be eaten, and by the way, take out 50,000 taels and send it to the Quanzhou maritime merchants."

Remind the place, don't take the emperor for a fool.

Shuangxi responded, and he understood in his heart that although the emperor did not find out about this matter, as soon as the silver arrived in Quanzhou, the official who wrote this auspicious recital had to commit suicide in fear!

"What is good at the top will be very bad at the bottom.

If I take this 'auspicious rui' as a treasure, the local people will rush to the mountains to dig up those natural treasures, and it is the Nanyang people who die now, and the mountain hunters in the future will die. ”

Fifty thousand taels of fish were killed and eaten like this, Zhu Yunwen was distressed, and after moving two chopsticks, his whole face was tangled together.

"The slave and maid turned around and sent someone to say hello to the Quanzhou Shipping Division, and added a tax to the group of maritime merchants."

Shuangxi, who saw that Zhu Yunwen was distressed, made a suggestion, but reprimanded him in exchange.

"Nonsense."

Zhu Yunwen was very dissatisfied and said: "This matter ends here, and you are not allowed to make claims without permission." ”

People were also kind enough to give him a congratulatory gift to the emperor, and Zhu Yunwen's return of the silver was enough for the group of businessmen to be scared, and they couldn't live in fear, so they turned their heads and raised taxes, but it seemed that the emperor was narrow-minded.

"There are so many auspicious things in the world, they are all a group of people who play the piano indiscriminately."

As the sycophant of the first son of heaven, the official Shangshu Xu Buji sneered at this matter when he was eating at home.

"We are today, but we never believe in what the cow ghost snake god said, it's not that we don't like to slander and flatter, but you have to do what he likes, what the emperor likes, is to be obedient in the place, work seriously, and be consistent with the central government in thought.

It's not like Quanzhou, it's a typical fool, it's good, the horse's fart is slapped on the horse's leg. ”

When it comes to sycophancy, Xu Buji has a lot of right to speak.

Whether it is in the court or on official business, you have to take the "Collection of Quotations of Emperor Jianwen" wherever you go, in his words, that is, you must learn at all times, arm yourself with the spirit of the emperor, and remind yourself that you can't slack off on state affairs.

An attitude of dedication and national affairs makes people unappetizing.

"But it's true that there are a lot of things this year."

Although it is said that it is by patting sycophants that he has reached a high level in the temple, Xu Buji has been quite mature in this position over the years, and he is also very orderly when talking about state affairs in the Wenhua Palace.

"The Ministry of Officials has a big inspection this year to clean up the redundancy of officials in various provinces and counties across the country, and also to evaluate whether the provincial examination mechanism of each province can be connected with the provincial government yamen, so as to ensure that the officials admitted every year can fully supplement those positions who have retired beyond the age line."

The Wenhua Hall is the place where the cabinet and the ten books of the court discuss state affairs, and there is no day when there is a big court meeting, and the daily deliberations here are equivalent to the court meeting.

As the leader of the ministry, Xu Buji is reporting his work to the cabinet.

"The Ministry of Officials plans to send an inspection team to the provinces, and I hope that the cabinet will approve a note, so that the local political envoys can fully cooperate, and by the way, approve 100,000 taels of funds."

Xia Yuanji didn't even hesitate at all, and didn't even raise his head, so he replied directly.

"Batch."

As long as we ensure the full implementation of the "Regulations on the Application of Imperial Court Officials, Ding Wei, Suspension, and Expulsion", even if there are flaws in some places, they can be covered, unlike several other departments, which are all hard indicators.

"This year, the household department will convene the household owners of each province and ask them to bring the survey and books of each province to summarize, and also send Du Zhilang to each province to check the official warehouses of each province and count the actual number of silver and grain in the warehouse."

Xia Yuanji emphasized the work of the household department and gave instructions to the new household department Shangshu Qi.

The latter was the left squire of the household department earlier, but he has always been a lazy lord, belonging to the type of not seeking merit but seeking no fault, this kind of official has few benefits, but there are relatively few disadvantages.

Work hard, be honest, not greedy, and do it for a few years to be honored.

"What about the Ministry of Works?"

Wei Jun puffed up his chest and proudly stood up to ask for credit: "The plan formulated by the cabinet for the Ministry of Industry was fully implemented by the Ministry of Industry at the end of last year. ”

After speaking, Wei Jun looked smug and waited for the cabinet's commendation.

However, in exchange for the angry glares of several members of the cabinet.

You just completed the plan, and rushed to repair the embankment?

The First Five-Year Plan is completed, who dares to guarantee that there is no Second Five-Year Plan?

Now the emperor looks at it, good guy, your cabinet is so capable, just right, increase the workload during the second and fifth years.

Not alive yet!

"The Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Industry is really a bunch of capable officials."

Xie Jin gritted his teeth and said: "I think Wei Butang shouldn't be in the Ministry of Industry, he should go to the Ministry of Household to pick up the beams, maybe he will work for ten years, and our Daming Dingkou will be able to break 10,000." ”

Wei Jun was confused when he said this, and he thought that Xie Jin was planning to promote him, so he waved his hand hurriedly.

"The elder of the pavilion praised it, the lower officials are powerful, and they can't give birth to tens of millions of children in ten years, and the lower officials' body can't bear it."

Good fellow, he thinks beautifully.
