Chapter 170: Inadvertently Unveiled (Asking for Subscription)

Contracted?

Are we having auditory hallucinations?

There is silence in front of the Huangji Gate, and the word contracting, appearing in front of the Huangji Gate, seems a little too abrupt.

After a long time, Li Zhi suddenly shouted angrily: "A bunch of nonsense, this is simply a bunch of nonsense, how can the country's horse politics be contracted to businessmen?" ”

When he shouted, the rest of the people also reacted, and immediately criticized Xu Mengxi, foaming at the mouth, including some neutrals who shook their heads, and Cheng Guogong and others, who had always supported Xu Mengxi, did not dare to help Xu Mengxuan speak, they didn't know about it in advance, and they knew that they could still let him talk nonsense.

It's like rushing to the doctor.

Ma Zheng contracted to a businessman, funny you mean it.

Xu Menghui was in front of Mount Tai, his face did not change, and he asked Li Zhi loudly: "Dare to ask Li Yushi, why not?" ”

Li Zhi said: "Do you still need to ask?" How can the affairs of this state be entrusted to merchants? ”

Xu Mengxi shook his head and said, "I still don't understand, what does Li Yushi mean by this?" Why can't you contract to a businessman, is it because the businessman can't do it, or what, you should give a reason, not because the other party is a businessman, and oppose it. ”

Li Zhi was happy, he had seen a lot of confused people, he had never seen anything like this, this thing was different from the canonization ceremony, after all, the canonization ceremony was the emperor's business, and he only gave some of them to the merchants, which was okay, and didn't King Lu buy jewelry everywhere for his wedding. He said: "If the merchant can do it well, then what do you want us courtiers to do?" ”

Xu Mengxi stroked his beard and smiled: "Then I don't know if Li Yushi has a way to deal with these problems?" Who else has a solution? ”

"I ......."

Li Zhi opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound.

Xu Mengxi snorted: "You people, all day long, you are loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and the country and the society are on your lips, but in fact, you take care of your interests, you have no way to solve it, you only know how to blame others, and for the sake of your own face and power, you are not allowed to solve the problem by others, which is really unreasonable." ”

Wanli couldn't help clapping his hands when he heard it, thinking to himself, this old man is usually silent, but he didn't expect his eloquence to be so good!

Huang Daxiao immediately stood up and snorted: "Then according to Xing Amber's meaning, the merchant can solve it?" ”

"Not bad."

Xu Mengxuan immediately said: "Contracting to businessmen is beneficial and harmless, and all problems will be solved." ”

Shen Shixing, Wang Jiaping and other ministers looked at Xu Mengxi in surprise.

Who gave you courage in this?

It's not that they can't solve it at all, but the interests in it are too complex and not easy to deal with, and no one guarantees that they can solve it.

"Okay, good, I'm willing to hear it." Huang Daxiao was so angry that his head was trembling up and down.

Xu Mengxi said unhurriedly: "Contracted to merchants, first of all, all this can be simplified, which can save a lot of manpower and material resources for the imperial court; Secondly, the imperial court can release a reward list, gather the world's capable people, contracted by the capable, the two sides sign a contract in black and white, how much money the court allocates to him every year, how many horses they raise, including the quality of the horse, all can be written. ”

Huang Daxiao snorted: "This businessman is treacherous, everyone knows it, if they take the money and don't do anything, what will they do?" ”

Xu Mengxi said: "The person who unveils the list must first pay a sufficient deposit, if the task is not completed, the court can deduct the deposit, if all are completed, the court will give bonuses, rewards and punishments are clear, and the court will not lose." This is also the third major advantage of contracting to businessmen, who have a humble status, and can be supervised by officials in the DPRK and China, so as to avoid problems and blame each other and shirk their responsibilities. ”

Wanli nodded and said, "Aiqing is reasonable!" ”

Huang Daxiao said: "Your Majesty, how can this be, the political leaders of the country are actually contracted to businessmen, this is going to be spread, where is the face of the court." ”

Many ministers immediately spoke out and resolutely opposed Xu Mengxi.

Xu Mengxi laughed.

Wanli asked, "Why is Aiqing laughing?" ”

Xu Mengxi said: "Your Majesty has seen it, they only care about their own face and status, not my Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, they impeached the old minister, but also for myself." ”

When Wanli heard this, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes, he had wanted to say this for a long time, what to do, what to do, every day he knows the system, etiquette, respect and humility.

"You... You're spewing blood. ”

Huang Daxiao was so angry that he almost didn't vomit blood.

The officials, who have always been able to speak well, were actually said by Xu Mengxi to be messed up, and they can only blame Xu Mengxuan for not playing cards according to the routine.

Xu Mengxi said: "In addition to face and status, then you should say why you come out, why not contract with businessmen?" Compared to today, what is the difference? ”

Jiang Yinglan, who had been silent, suddenly stood up and said: "Since ancient times, we have respected agriculture as the foundation, and business as the end. ”

This is really to the point, businessmen seek profits, it is nature, businessmen gain a lot of profits, then the interests of the country and the people will naturally be harmed.

Xu Menghui said: "I am not advocating business, I just suggest that the matter of raising horses be contracted to merchants, in fact, in the horse administration, there has always been no shortage of tea and horse trading, there have long been people on the border to borrow the talents of merchants, and the Mongols to trade horses, my suggestion is the same." ”

Wanli saw that the fire was almost over, it was time to say everything, continue to let them fight, no head, after all, the person in power, but he didn't make a sound, suddenly looked at Shen Shixing, who was silent on the side, and asked, "What does Shen Shoufu think?" ”

Shen Shixing arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Xing'anbo's strategy is also a way, but there is no precedent for this kind of thing, and the court still needs to be cautious. ”

Zhang Cheng immediately stood up and said, "The minister agrees." ”

Zhang Jing also hurriedly stood up and made a statement.

The cabinet and the three major power institutions of the ceremonial supervisor and the east factory all agreed, and Wanli had confidence, so he said: "Shen Shoufu's words have won my heart, and this matter will be handed over to Taifu Temple." Retreat. ”

After that, he hurriedly slipped away.

Before the ministers could react, the emperor slipped away.

After half a bang, they came back to their senses, and this time the pot exploded, and the ministers talked about it, all of them were filled with righteous indignation.

They began to point the finger at Shen Shixing, if you don't approve, the emperor can't just go his own way!

"As the head of the cabinet, how can Shen Shoufugui approve of such a ridiculous proposal."

"If this is to be spread, the court will lose face, and the people will laugh at us."

"If you do this, where will you put the civil and military officials of our dynasty?"

.....

Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Everyone, please be calm and listen to me." This is not so easy to do, you may wish to think about it, some pastures that have been abandoned, and the appropriation cannot be higher than the regulations, and you have to raise good horses, and you have to pay enough deposits, which is more difficult than ascending to the sky! If I don't say that, I'm afraid that Xing'anbo will not be convinced. ”

He is an official and a person, and he pays attention to convincing people with virtue, and he has always been with the mud, try to reconcile all parties, and don't let the court split, because once it is divided, then there is nothing to do, and there will be tearing all day long, so he doesn't want to ask Xu Mengxi about it, anyway, he tries to ensure that both sides are not offended.

"Shen Shoufu is reasonable, this matter is not so simple."

"Yes, that's a thankless task."

"I don't think any businessman dares to expose this list."

......

The ministers suddenly realized this problem, even if they can't do this kind of thing, can the businessmen do it well?

Could it be that those who contract to businessmen, those who have vested interests, will be willing to give up the interests in their hands, but they are afraid that they will become even more violent, and by the way, they will blackmail the businessmen again, where will this businessman dare to offend them?

It's just that they are too entangled in this "respect and humility of farmers and businessmen", which leads them to not think of talking about things, of course, this is also their consistent style.

But now that they have calmed down, they are all aware of this problem, including those who speak for themselves.

"I don't believe anyone dares to expose this list." Li Zhi snorted: "If this strategy fails, I want to see what else he has to say?" ”

Sun Rufa, the director of the Criminal Department, said suddenly: "You don't have to forget, that Guo Dan is a person from Xing'anbo, do you think this is ......?" ”

Huang Daxiao immediately said: "If Guo Dan dares to unveil the list, it will be even better, and he can be cleaned up together." ”

......

And Xu Mengxi is not as much as they think now, he has no way back, he can only go all the way to the dark, so when he returned to the Yamen, he immediately ordered people to go to those commercial areas on Mashi Street to post a list and offer a reward.

When this list was posted, it immediately attracted the wealthy businessmen of the entire capital, and there was an uproar in front of each list.

"I heard that these ten pastures have been abandoned for a long time, and the grass is growing taller than people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is wasteland."

"The imperial court spends so much money, and it can't be done, let alone us businessmen."

"Let's not talk about these, the most interesting thing is that you have to pay a deposit of five thousand taels first, not to mention whether the money is more or less, the problem is that the money is handed over, in case they find a reason not to pay us back, what can we do?"

......

Not to mention tempting, these wealthy businessmen are here purely for fun, anyway, it's not a big deal to watch the excitement.

All in all, in a word, whoever exposes who is stupid.

This is obviously what the imperial court used to pit money.

Even the officials who were ordered to come here to see the list felt that this was nonsense, but anyone with a clean mind did not dare to expose the list, because the water in it was too deep, and you were a businessman mixed in, what is the difference between looking for death, so he left two officials to wait on the side, and he ran to the tea shop opposite to sit, and the two officials didn't bother to care, squatting on the side to chat.

"What are you doing, why are you all gathered here, be careful of the crime of this brocade clothes guarding you obstructing the streets, obstructing the city's appearance, and forming gangs."

Hearing a rather arrogant shout, everyone turned their heads to look, only to see Guo Dan, who was dressed in a distinctive uniform, pushed through the crowd and squeezed in.

Which of these rich businessmen doesn't know Guo Dan, and they also know that Guo Dan is joking. Then Qin Zhuang smiled and said: "Guo Xian's nephew, you are really majestic in front of this brocade guard!" ”

"Really? I also think this uniform suits me perfectly, red, like my heart. Guo Dan smiled proudly, and asked again: "It's already dark this day, and there is a curfew soon, why are you still gathered here?" ”

Zhou Feng pointed to the wall and said, "Virtuous nephew, look at the wall, what is it?" ”

Guo Dan turned his head, stared at it, and said word by word: "Bounty list? What's the bounty? ”

He suddenly stretched out his hand to tear off the list, took it to his eyes and looked at it, and sighed: "It turns out that the imperial court is trying to recruit Ma Wen." ”

After that, he looked up at the merchants again, and admonished: "Everyone, don't say that I didn't advise you, impulse is the devil, this matter can not be done, as far as I know, the water is very deep... Hey? Why are you all looking at me like that? ”

I saw a group of wealthy businessmen looking at him blankly.

Qin Zhuang nodded and said, "Virtuous nephew, we know that we can't do this, so we are all far away. ”

"That's good."

Guo Dan nodded.

"But ...... nephew?" Qin Zhuang wanted to speak and stopped.

"How?" Guo Dan looked at him suspiciously.

Zhou Feng slowly raised his hand, pointed to the list in Guo Dan's hand and said, "Xian... Virtuous nephew, why do you want this list to be ripped off? ”

Guo said lightly: "Because I can't see clearly!" Is there anything wrong with this? ”

Zhou Feng swallowed and said, "If you tear off the list, it means that you have unveiled the list." ”

"Rub! Which rascal has the rules. ”

Guo Dan was immediately frightened, and turned around to hang the list back, but he saw two powerful and vicious officials in front of him.

Guo Dan snorted and said: "The two masters, the younger brother passed through here, saw that the list had fallen, and was about to pick it up and hang it back, although it was a righteous and courageous act, but the two of you don't need to praise me." ”

"Nonsense."

One of the officials angrily rebuked, "I saw you tear down this list with my own eyes." ”

You saw it with your own eyes, and you didn't stop me? Guo Dan said excitedly: "As a Jinyi guard, it is my duty to talk nonsense. Ahem, cough, I mean, everyone wears uniforms, and if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, it will be dark and everyone will be dazzled. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the officials grabbed Guo Dan with one hand and said to the tea shop opposite: "My lord, my lord, someone has unveiled the list." ”

"There are really fools who reveal the list." I saw a middle-aged man with a round body and two small beards staggering out, and helped down his black gauze hat, "Which fool is it, cough cough, who?" Who made the list? ”

The official took Guo Dan's hand and raised it high, and said, "It's him." ”

Guo Dan wanted to cry without tears and said: "My lord, this is just a misunderstanding!" ”

"You have the list in your hand, what is the misunderstanding."

The little official jumped up excitedly, and he didn't expect to complete the task on the first day, so he hurriedly said, "Hurry up, take him to see the uncle." Ha ha. ”
