As a person from the Internal Affairs Office, Huang Changzong's status is not low, and he is responsible for the construction of channels in the entire Internal Affairs Office, so he can be said to be the real power faction of the Internal Affairs Office, and he has done a good job and can gain Zhu Youxiao's trust.

When Huang Changzong got up from the ground, Zhu Youxiao looked him up and down and said, "You can lose weight." ”

In fact, in this day and age, in everyone's mind, being fat is not a bad thing. Fat proves that people's living conditions are good, people eat well, and people are rich, so fat is called rich.

However, this fat has already affected his health, and Zhu Youxiao is still very concerned about the health of his subordinates, after all, this is the person who will do things for himself in the future, don't fall halfway.

Zhu Youxiao said: "After this time, go back to the capital and go to the army to practice." When to lose weight, when to go back. ”

After hearing this, Huang Changzong's face instantly became ugly, and of course he was also embarrassed.

Refutation is not refuted, and refusal is not daring to refuse.

This is given to you by the emperor, you must take it, and if you don't accept it, you don't know how to lift it.

Huang Changzong hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. ”

He had already made up his mind in his heart that he would go back hungry for a few days and lose weight first.

After he lost weight, he didn't have any guilt to bear when he arrived at the pro-army yamen. When you really lose weight, maybe you just need to go over there and go through the process, otherwise I'm afraid it will be bad.

Zhu Youxiao did not continue to dwell on this issue, but turned the topic to business.

Looking at Huang Changzong, Zhu Youxiao said directly: "Are the things you prepared ready?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it's ready." Huang Changzong nodded and said: "We have already found a general agent in each province, and each prefecture has also found a good sub-agent, and the direct stores are also ready." Once you do it here, you can take it over immediately. The manpower has arrived in Yangzhou and is always ready. ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Changzong and nodded with satisfaction.

Such a large-scale personnel transfer, such a large-scale operation, is not a problem here in Huang Changzong. This is the merit of this person, who can do such a thing well, he is a capable person.

Zhu Youxiao's natural need to do is to prepare to take over the salt business as a whole.

For these big salt merchants, Zhu Youxiao is ready to kill them. In addition, Zhu Youxiao is ready to completely abolish the current salt system, which is not necessary to exist at all.

The reason why the previous emperors did not dare to move is very simple, you killed them all, so who will sell you salt?

If no one sells salt, the world will be in chaos.

Zhu Youxiao has no such scruples at all, he has the Internal Affairs Office.

When the Ministry of Internal Affairs takes over the salt business, it will definitely surprise everyone.

Since the establishment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Zhu Youxiao has been letting them expand and expand, and at the same time reach cooperation with some businessmen in various provinces, and also establish various directly-operated stores.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is developing on a large scale and at a very fast pace. After Zhu Youxiao kills these salt merchants, they will take over such an industry in an all-round way and then reorganize it.

The original stove households will also be abolished, and they will be directly transferred to the workers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is not a question of the identity of the ancestors not changing, but whether they can benefit from it?

Zhu Youxiao still remembers that when his father was a worker, it could be passed down from generation to generation. If the juniors in the family are not competitive, they can still return to work in the factory and take over their father's position.

In such a situation, how high the status of the workers is, Zhu Youxiao's heart is very clear. When my father mentioned it, he still missed that era very much.

In Daming, the stove households are just not having a good time. Transforming them into workers in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, just like the employees of state-owned enterprises in later generations, no matter how many people break their heads, they can't squeeze in.

After pacifying the bottom layer, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will take over at the middle level, and Zhu Youxiao will be in charge of the top level, so you can directly make a stable transition without any problems.

Zhu Youxiao has been laying out for so many years, and it is finally time to harvest. Only by laying a solid foundation and doing a good job in the preliminary work; Now there is such a comfortable way to end.

Zhu Youxiao was in a very good mood.

"Then do it. When you get started, it's your turn. Zhu Youxiao nodded and said.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister has already made a full plan." Huang Changzong said: "In addition to taking over, the minister has already made a plan for reform. comprehensively reform the salt farm, change boiled salt to dried salt; reforming the welfare system of salt mills; Increase the production of salt works. ”

"All these things have been formulated in a five-year plan, and I believe that there will be a leap forward in five years."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, put down the teacup in his hand and said, "I can trust you, do it well." When you get this done, I will promote you. I'm not the kind of person who is mean and unkind. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Huang Changzong hurriedly said, but he was a little disappointed in his heart.

He didn't want to show credit to His Majesty, he just wanted to say something to His Majesty.

I'm already so busy, can I not go to the Royal Army to lose weight?

I'm sure I can reduce it myself.

It's a pity that His Majesty didn't hear his subtext.

After the matter was arranged, Zhu Youxiao let Huang Changzong leave.

When Huang Changzong left, Zhu Youxiao also finished eating. Standing up and moving his muscles, he said to the Wei Dynasty beside him: "Let's go, go out for a walk, and go to the Royal Academy in Yangzhou City to have a look." ”

The Royal Academy in Yangzhou City has been established for four years.

Originally, Yangzhou naturally also had academies, but after the reform of the imperial court, there were no other academies here except for the Royal Academy.

After Zhu Youxiao arrived in Yangzhou, he naturally wanted to go to see the Royal Academy.

Originally, the Royal Academy in Nanjing, Zhu Youxiao was also going to go. It's just that the time is tight and the task is heavy, so he didn't go to it.

However, Zhu Youxiao made up his mind, and when he passed through Nanjing on the way back, he must go to see the Royal Academy in Nanjing.

Now, the Royal Academy in Yangzhou can take a good look.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao had already heard that those salt merchants had already put their hands in. The system is there, but the matter is man-made, and in the final analysis, it depends on the people.

Zhu Youxiao really wanted to see how far the Royal Academy in Yangzhou had achieved? To what extent did those merchants infiltrate this place?

It's a very interesting thing to think about.

After changing his clothes, with a jade pendant on his waist and a folding fan in his hand, Zhu Youxiao is a beautiful son.

Zhu Youxiao was followed by more than a dozen guards, with an old slave like the Wei Dynasty by his side, and at the same time a beauty like Chen Yu'er accompanied him.

With this pomp, ordinary people really don't have it.

After going out of the door and getting into the carriage, the group slowly walked to the Royal Academy in Yangzhou.

The place where Zhu Youxiao is going today is the original Ganquan Academy.

Ganquan Academy, one of the ancient academies in Yangzhou, was originally built in Dongguan Street and later moved to Guangling Road.

Jiajing Zhongjian, originally known as Ganquan Academy, also known as Chongya Academy, changed to Meihua Academy in the twelfth year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty.

As the old saying goes: "The prosperity of the Southeast Academy, Yangzhou has three of them." ”

The "three" here refers to the very well-known Anding, Meihua and Guangling academies in Yangzhou.

The two Huai salt merchants are the best in the world, and the number and essence of the academies have also cultivated a large number of talents for ancient Yangzhou.

According to the statistics of the "Ming and Qing Jinshi Ranks", only in the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were 650 people in Yangzhou who passed the imperial examination to enter the Jinshi, including 245 in the Ming Dynasty and 405 in the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, this royal academy in Yangzhou, Zhu Youxiao must go to see it.

This is a typical example of the Ming Dynasty, the best example of collusion between officials and businessmen.

From the beginning of your studies, there are people who sponsor you and train you in various ways. With a little progress, these people will give you a house, a land, a ticket, a woman, you name it.

What will you do when you become an official? How do you repay them?

What's more, before you became an official, they pulled you into their own. There's not necessarily anyone who turns against you, right?

Zhu Youxiao didn't see it in the previous academy, and it's a pity to think about it now. But it's better to take a look at the current Royal Academy and see how they infiltrate.

In fact, the truth is the same, the land is royal, and the academy is royal, but the students are not, right?

Buying students is the same, and if the original way doesn't work, change the way.

When Zhu Youxiao came to Yangzhou Royal Academy, it was already full of people, and it could be seen that many students had just come. Apparently it's back-to-school day.

Zhu Youxiao frowned, because according to the regulations of the Royal Academy, when students came to the academy, they would be alone.

But this scene in front of me is not like this, the traffic is weaving, and the crowd is surging.

The students were all in chariots and servants, and each of them had at least two women around them. Just look at the appearance, these are carefully selected maids, understand, Yangzhou thin horse.

If these people can be admitted to the Royal Academy, they will instantly become the guests of the salt merchants. The imperial court's system of selecting talents has now become a system of selecting talents for salt merchants.

The reason is simpler, originally the salt merchant had to judge according to his own vision, but now he doesn't need to, the one who can be admitted to the Royal Academy is a talent, and direct investment is it.

If you throw a lot of money, it will eventually pay off.

Zhu Youxiao also got off the carriage, also with a maid Chen Yuer.

Chen Yuer's appearance is naturally good, and she can be regarded as glamorous here. Even if there are stunning among the thin horses in Yangzhou, it is not their turn to read.

Many people were immediately attracted by Zhu Youxiao's pomp here.

The carriage, the fan, the clothes on the body, and the jade pendant on the waist know that the identity is extraordinary at a glance.

Of course, the most important thing is the guards behind him, which is not an ordinary person.

Look at the woman accompanying others, this appearance is beautiful and refined, it can be described as the beauty of a sinking fish and a goose; This posture is exquisite, and the bone-eroding ecstasy kung fu must be excellent!
