Who would have thought that in this understatement, the fat house dropped another bombshell.

The significance of the imperial examination to the Ming Dynasty is really far from being comparable to that of the Tang and Song dynasties.

This is the belief of the world's scholars, and it is also the only way to rise from the cold.

Therefore, no one dares to move the imperial examination easily, which is generally a small repair and small reform, but the general direction is more and more conservative.

This suddenly has to add a new exam, and what kind of economics is it, this "economics" is defined by Guo Dan businessman, and in the eyes of many people, this is learning to do business.

This is undoubtedly subversive.

If it had been before, it would have exploded again, but at the moment, they were really suppressed by Wanli.

Wang Jiaping said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination is a big matter!" ”

Without waiting for him to finish, Wanli said, "When did I ask you how many concubines you had?" ”

“！”

Wang Jiaping was immediately stunned.

This mouth is really poisonous!

But it makes sense, I'm the emperor, and if I talk about things, it must be a big matter, otherwise, do I need to care?

The Ministry of Industry has one less toilet paper, and I have to ask?

Chen Younian said very cautiously: "But Your Majesty, is this likely to cause opposition from the world's scholars?" ”

"Why?"

Wanli asked.

Chen Younian said: "They have studied the Four Books and Five Classics since they were children, and suddenly added one more exam, and they have not studied it, although this is not unfair, but this will make their grades full of uncertainty, but when the results come out, they will have complaints." ”

Wanli waved his hand and said: "This is not a conflict, the results of this exam are only for my reference, and the main results are still determined by you." ”

And that's not a conflict yet.

The emperor's reading is better than all the achievements!

Li Sancai said: "Your Majesty, if you mark the papers in person, it will still affect the candidates' scores, and who doesn't want to be a protégé of the Son of Heaven." ”

Wanli said: "Then be a little more angry, now there are too many people in the court who talk about it, and there are too few people to solve problems, I hope to be able to select some capable people, who can help me, instead of reciting the 'Analects' and the 'Emperor's ancestral teachings' in front of me every day, others don't know, and they think that I haven't read a book." If the imperial examination can't get the talent I want, then what's the point of the imperial examination? ”

It's really uncomfortable to have a gun and a stick between sentences!

Li Sancai said: "But what kind of economics is it, it is difficult to wait for the hall of elegance." ”

"Aiqing is right!"

Wanli nodded, and said: "In this case, I will contract this exam to Yinuo Academy, anyway, it will be difficult for them to wait for the Hall of Elegance, so this is the end of today's meeting." ”

With that, he got up and went back.

Leave behind a group of stunned ministers.

Can this also be contracted?

Is there no limit to contracting?

"Prime minister, you must not do this, if Yinuo University sets up another examination, then the imperial examination will definitely be hit hard."

Wang Jiaping is really anxious!

The emperor opened another imperial examination, and over time, who would come to participate in the imperial examination.

Everyone knows that only from the dragon can you get ahead in these years!

Zhang Cheng smiled and said: "It's useless for you to look for our family, Your Majesty has already made it clear, this imperial examination must be the talent that the emperor wants, otherwise, it won't make any sense, don't you even understand this?" Is this imperial examination the talent you want, or the talent that Your Majesty wants? Alas, the opportunity was given to you, and you didn't grasp it yourself, and our family couldn't help it. ”

With that, he sighed and left.

The truth is still the same truth.

Who has the final say?

In Wanli's view, this emperor is the emperor you hope for, and the talent is the talent you hope for, is it for decoration?

In fact, at this meeting, Wanli was testing their attitude, and his words were full of the meaning of the emperor's respect, but the ministers' answers made him very disappointed, and he still didn't change his mind, but Wanli didn't care very much, if you don't do it, I will contract it out, and I am now rich and have soldiers.

When they got downstairs, Shen Shixing, Wang Xijue, Xu Guo, and Shen Yi left by themselves.

Fang Feng disappeared quietly.

In fact, they have all heard the sound of the strings, and they support the emperor in their hearts, the emperor has done things in the past two years, and they can really be regarded as great achievements, and the facts are in front of them, and they can't always talk nonsense with their eyes open.

Including the increase in scientific research, they also agreed, and they also saw Guo Dan's set, which was indeed a bit perverted, and many affairs of the household department gradually relied on Yinuo Yaxing.

There is no way, the financial report given by Yinuoya can indeed reflect the problem, but they never say it.

And Cao Ke and Wang Heng entered the Senate, which means that the emperor still values them very much, does not abandon them, and understands their hardships and allows them to participate in court politics in this way.

This must be reciprocated.

It's just that if they say it, it will be the same as before, everyone will quarrel around, and then Wanli and Guo Dan will discuss national affairs over there, which is very embarrassing when they look back, and they are too lazy to make a sound, Wang Xijue didn't say a word today.

After going back, they immediately drafted the purpose, after all, Wanli now cares very much about efficiency, and they can't be lazy anymore, they made a summary of what has happened in the past two years.

Four big characters--- Wenzhi martial arts!

They finally came to their senses and began to boast about the emperor.

Pingbozhou, extinguishing Ningxia, providing relief to disaster victims, reducing taxes, building water conservancy, and so on.

Of course, they didn't mention Guo Dan, and all the credit went to the emperor.

At the same time, it was announced to the world that Jinyiwei had taken Luzon Island from the hands of the Francos, and Luzon Island was officially included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty and temporarily assigned to the Luwang Mansion, and at the same time cancelled all taxes from the Luwang Mansion in the Central Plains.

and will send troops to Dongwu, determined to solve the war with Dongwu that has lasted for more than ten years.

It's really been a blockbuster for three years.

Immediately there was an uproar!

What's the situation?

When did my Ming send troops to Luzon?

How can we, the ministers, know nothing about such a big matter?

And send troops to Dongwu?

So decided?

No one has asked us!

They hurried to the cabinet to ask and understand, Shen Shixing just said a word, and we all listened to what His Majesty said.

This!

Speechless!

At the same time, under the arrangement of the cabinet, the six ministries also made a series of adjustments, among which the Liaodong Army will successively replace the firearms in the Grand Canyon, and the Ministry of Industry will be weakened on a large scale, and the resources occupied will be directly cut in half, and half of the destiny will be lost in an instant. Pi Phi Reading.com

The officials of the Ministry of Industry are very depressed, and this reduction in resources means that their power will also be reduced by half.

The problem is that Shi Xing, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is not in the court, and has been taking the money from the money outside to govern the river, and the Ministry of Industry is a group of dragons without a leader, and it is powerless to resist.

However, the ministers didn't care about any of this anymore, because news had come out about the imperial examination contract.

The ministers are going crazy!

Can this imperial examination be contracted?

Then why don't you contract us all, we are all from the imperial examination.

They went crazy and were adamantly against it.

It's the emperor's ancestral training again, and it's a century-old foundation!

Oppose it from all angles.

And then the egg!

Wanli is a repeat of the old trick, and the edict is published in the daily life, directly announcing to the world.

In fact, even Guo Dan didn't know about this, the reason was because Wanli knew very well what he wanted to think, that is, fresh blood, those old men would hang up sooner or later, but if he didn't start with the imperial examination, it would be like this from generation to generation, he had to change the imperial examination and choose some of the talents he wanted.

Radically weaken the bureaucracy.

He didn't write down his words to the ministers, he still clung to the fallen scholars.

He repeatedly said that he attaches great importance to those who have fallen off the list, not that their talents are not enough, it may just be that they do not play well for a while, or that their talent is not in this, some of the people and tributes in the Senate have proved this, their ability is enough to enter the ranks, this natural talent will be useful, I want to give them another chance to share their worries for the king.

Then he expounded his views on finance, and "the prosperity of the country and the well-being of the people" officially became his political manifesto.

In fact, it is "money".

He really thinks that this problem is all about poverty, and as long as there is money, then everything will be fine.

So based on this, Wanli announced that in the name of the Son of Heaven in Yinuo Academy, an additional Enke --- economics would be opened, which had nothing to do with the imperial court, but at least he had to obtain the status of a lifter first.

Basically, it's for those who have fallen off the list.

A no-tooth line!

Conference room.

"Not bad! For the time being, I will take charge of Luzon. ”

Under the expectation of a group of businessmen, Guo Dan nodded and admitted.

The merchants smiled greedily.

You know that's the case.

Zhou Feng hurriedly asked, "I wonder how Advisor Guo plans to manage Luzon Island?" ”

Guo Dan said: "I will build Luzon Island into a free trade zone, where I do business, basically do not have to pay any taxes, at most I will charge some management fees, and I will set aside a large agricultural area there, all of which are fertile land, and the price is about one penny per acre of land." ”

"How much?"

Zhou Feng's tongue was not straight.

"About a minute!"

Guo Dan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Therefore, investing in restaurants, hotels and agriculture over there will definitely make money." ”

Zhou Feng's waist straightened, and it was finally my turn to play.

This restaurant, hotel, and agriculture are all what he is good at, he used to be a big landlord, Zhou Feng said with tears and snot: "Consultant Guo, I was the first to cooperate with you, Qin Zhuang and Chen Ping are all behind me, but now they all want a joint-stock system, and I am not fair!" ”

Seeing this situation, Cao Da hurriedly burst out tears and snot, and even wanted to fart to let Guo Dan smell himself!

One acre of land, what's the difference between this and giving away.

Guo Dan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Don't be like this, I haven't drawn up a contract yet, this is something that can be repented, and then discuss it specifically when the contract comes out." ”

At this time, Xiao An ran in, "Uncle! They have to see you, and I can't stop them. ”

Guo Dan said unhappily: "You should make it clear, who wants to see me." ”

"It's those who read."

"Oh my God!"

Guo Dan rubbed his forehead and said, "You guys should go back first, and we'll talk about it after I'm sure, I still have something to do, so I'll be out of company first." ”

So saying, he got up and went out.

Cao Da muttered: "I don't know when this promise education will be a joint-stock system!" ”

All the merchants present looked at him.

Cao Da was stunned, and suddenly his intestines were repentant, oops! Exposed!

The hall is already crowded, and they are all unsuccessful scholars!

"Advisor Guo is here."

"Consultant Guo, I don't know how to study at Shangnuo Academy?"

"Consultant Guo, do you think I can do it?"

Can you? I'm not choosing a model, and if you choose a model, you won't be able to choose it. Guo Dan said depressedly: "Everyone, this is Yinuo Yaxing, not Yinuo Academy, you can go to Yinuo Academy to register!" ”

"But I've heard that there are restrictions on your school."

"Advisor Guo, Your Majesty wants to increase Enke, but you restrict us, this is against the holy will!"

"Wow! You are a scholar when you say this! Now there's no limit, it's okay. ”

"You're too perfunctory, this is Enko, how can you perfunctory us."

"Wow! There are restrictions, you are not happy, I cancel the restrictions, you are not happy, you are here to find fault. ”

"Consultant Guo, don't be angry first, I heard that those who are admitted to Yinuo University not only don't have to pay tuition, but also have money."

"It's just been canceled."

"Why canceled?"

"Because I took the money before, and now it's Enke, why should I pay, so the previous genius plan has been canceled, and it has been changed to His Majesty's Maxima Plan, and I still have money to get if I pass the exam, but this money is from His Majesty."

"Your Majesty values you so much, you repay Your Majesty like this, and you actually ask Your Majesty to pay, it is really unreasonable."

"Your Majesty values me, what does it have to do with me to see that you are unhappy, you have blocked the door and scolded me several times before, and I have also helped you pay for it, how lacking I am! If it weren't for His Majesty's mighty grace, I wouldn't have let them sign up with familiar faces. ”

In an instant, many people covered their faces.

Let's ask who has never scolded the people who read in the world.

Guo Dan said: "I advise you not to come to me, go and sign up yourself, if I recognize it, my character will be retribution, which will make you and me very embarrassed, do I retaliate or not." ”

With a whoosh, the hall was empty!
