Chapter 92: Zhu Qizhen's fear
Orthodoxy eleventh spring.
When Liu Dingyi arrived in Beijing, Zhu Qizhen immediately summoned him. didn't ask him about Yan Zheng first, but took out all Guo Deng's secret folds and let Liu Dingzhi see it.
Zhu Qizhen asked: "Guo Deng said, you persuade him to stay measured?" Look, is this situation in Fujian okay? ”
Liu Dingzhi said: "The minister still thinks so, and it is really because of the Fujian Health Institute that it is even more necessary to leave a sense of proportion." Your Majesty's ministers said a polite word, except for the southwest of the nine sides, all the guards in the world are generally like this, but they are the same but the same, such a big lid, does Your Majesty dare to lift it? ”
Zhu Qizhen was stunned for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't dare." ”
Yes, even if Zhu Qizhen is the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, he doesn't dare to do such a thing.
There are more than 300 guards in the world, and there are all the guards? Zhu Qizhen didn't dare to say that there was, maybe a few of them were probably Zhu Qizhen's pro-military guards.
How about a meeting about this one?
Does the court deal with it or not?
If you don't deal with it, where will the prestige of the imperial court go, deal with it, how to deal with it, will this large number of officials of the guard be disposed of?
Not to mention pushing people to the end, will they jump over the wall in a hurry.
Although these guards are unbearable, they are still the force of the Ming Dynasty, and if they make trouble, they can directly shake the authority of the imperial court.
Now that the tile is on the side, does Zhu Qizhen dare to make such a big mess?
Even these guards were loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, loyal to the imperial court, loyal to the point that the imperial court deprived them of their family property (mainly because they encroached on the land of the guard).
But where did Zhu Qizhen find so many officers to make up for the gap for a while, with martial arts students, don't forget, even martial arts students are rooted in this system.
Zhu Qizhen has expected this for a long time, why for so many years, on top of other things, Zhu Qizhen can do one thing after another, but in this one thing, there has never been thunder and rain, no, even thunder does not dare to have it.
It's just a tricky question.
It's so tricky that Zhu Qizhen knows how to start, but he can't think of how to end.
The biggest problem with the health system is land allocation, and the issue of land distribution is too sensitive. The state is said to be the state, and for many officers, it is theirs that their family has been occupied like this for two generations.
If this problem is not solved, the system of defense cannot be revived at all, and to solve this problem, it is necessary to use a knife, either to counterbalance the rebellion, or to make a major case.
But it is not possible to do neither.
In the late Ming Dynasty, the land and property account books of this guard did not exist in the account books of the military department, and the land of the guard house, which occupied one-eighth of the cultivated land of the imperial court, was so unclear
The white one disappeared from the government data.
The emperors of all dynasties thought that they didn't know, and they knew how tricky this problem was, so tricky that all emperors were unwilling to solve it head-on.
Now Zhu Qizhen just poked it tentatively, and found that the problem was more serious and tricky than he imagined. Zhu Qizhen can only give up the solution now and drag this matter down.
There is no way to do it.
The emperor was also unhappy.
Liu Dingzhi said: "General Guo's superiors are all secret folds, and this is the reason why I think so. Your Majesty knows what it means, and now it's just a matter of giving it a try. ”
Zhu Qizhen actually has nowhere to vent in one breath. Where is the meaning of trying Liu Dingzhi. But Liu Dingzhi said so, and Zhu Qizhen went downhill.
With this breath out, Zhu Qizhen was ready to deal with the aftermath of Guo Deng, and decided to communicate with Yang Pu and Zhang Fu tomorrow, and posthumously sealed the Fujian officers who died in Ye Liuzong's rebellion.
Regardless of whether they are stupid or idiots, whether they fall to death and crash to death, all officials who died in the Yeliuzong Rebellion will be given a generous pension. Added posthumous fame.
This is to show the attitude of the imperial court.
Fujian is just one example.
All the news about the Fujian Guard Center is going to be flooded in the DPRK. Hopefully, everyone in the world hasn't noticed this.
"This may be what Yang Pu and Zhang Fu want." Zhu Qizhen smiled bitterly in his heart. He calmed down and said: "It seems that a lot of salt in the Fujian Salt Transportation Division has been sold to maritime merchants, and to what extent have these maritime merchants bought it? ”
Liu Dingzhi took a breath at this time, his heart was in his stomach, he just said those words in front of Zhu Qizhen, and he was also very worried in his heart.
However, he guessed Zhu Qizhen's thoughts.
Zhu Qizhen will not blame the person who speaks in front of him and tells the truth, even if it is a little ugly. Zhu Qizhen doesn't care about some whitewashed words, but he hates people who refuse to tell the truth and can't even tell lies.
It's purely a matter of competence. If you can't do things well, you can't even say beautiful words, what's the use of you?
So Liu Dingzhi played the role of Geng Zhi in front of Zhu Qizhen, and it seems that the effect is good.
Liu Dingzhi said: "The minister has asked carefully, mainly Korea, Japan, and Vietnam. ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "Aren't these three countries producing salt? ”
Liu Dingzhi said: "The minister inquired that the three countries all produce salt, but there is not much salt, so that the price of salt is very high, so that the whole country of Japan eats lightly. And the North Korean people eat pickled vegetables for food and do not dare to use salt. ”
Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "This is to charge two more provinces for salt taxes." He then asked, "Can salt be sold in other places besides these three countries?" ”
Liu Dingzhi said: "The minister also asked, but the maritime merchants felt that the price of salt was a bit high and it was not cost-effective. ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "You."
At what price were they given. ”
Liu Dingzhi said: "It is the local salt price in Fujian, which is the lowest salt price set by the imperial court, and the ministers dare not go against the will of the imperial court." ”
Zhu Qizhen remembered that when Zhou Chen formulated the salt law, he set a minimum salt price in order to ensure the salt tax, and also set a maximum salt price in order to ensure that the people could eat salt.
But even with the lowest salt price, the imperial court can guarantee profit margins. After changing to the salt drying method, the profit margin will only be greater.
In other words, there is still room for price reduction.
Zhu Qizhen's breathing was slightly short, and he seemed to see that the Ming maritime merchants could sell salt in large quantities overseas, and let overseas countries pay salt taxes to the imperial court.
Zhu Qizhen decided to include salt in the tributary trade.
Even if the Watts were willing to trade their horses for salt, he agreed.
It's just that Zhu Qizhen doesn't know now, in fact, the tile spur is a salt lake, and they can produce salt by themselves. Of course, if the salt was cheap enough to make the Watters feel that it was not worth mining.
It's just that this is the price of a large industrial production, but I don't know if the salt industry in the Ming Dynasty can reach it.
Zhu Qizhen said: "The matter of the salt law, you sort it out, He Wenyuan will come to Beijing to report in the past few days." You have a good talk with him, and this matter will be left to him in the future. There is a more important thing to be left to you to do. ”
Liu Dingzhi's eyes twitched slightly, and he secretly wondered what new errand he would have. said: "Wechen obeys. ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "You don't want to know, what do I want you to do?" ”
Liu Dingzhi said: "No matter what His Majesty tells the minister to do, the minister will definitely do a good job." ”
"Okay." Zhu Qizhen said: "Some things can be done in the palace, but they are responsible for specific affairs, they always can't do well, I am going to gather some factories and mines in the palace and set up a yamen, just call it Shaofu, and in the future, all the factories and mines in the palace will be in charge of you." ”
When Liu Dingyi heard this, his face couldn't hold back, and he said, "In the palace." ”
Zhu Qizhen suddenly joked and said, "Yes, you can enter the palace." ”
Liu Dingyi sweated profusely for a while, opened his mouth, and said: "Your Majesty----, minister ------."
How can Liu Dingzhi say that he is also a champion, how can he be willing to enter the palace? It's just that I couldn't accept it for a while, and I couldn't say anything.
Zhu Qizhen said: "Don't worry, it's just to let you be in charge of Shaofu, the yamen of Shaofu, I am ready, with Guanglu Temple, not for you to enter the harem." ”
"You're my humerus, how can I do this?"
Although Guanglu Temple is in the palace city, it is outside the imperial city, on the side of the road where civil officials go to court every day. It's not a harem forbidden place.
Liu Dingzhi breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and immediately said: "Your Majesty is like this, it is a loss of respect for the Son of Heaven." ”
