Returning to the house from Liangxiang, Yan Chengjin sat in the main hall of the old courtyard and did not return to the new courtyard.

He Neng smiled flatteringly: "Young master, dinner is ready, you can go to the new courtyard to eat." ”

"Young Master Ben and the others, warm up first."

After Liu Jian heard Liu Lai's report, he would come to him in public and private.

Afraid of being beaten, he ordered someone to invite the Jinyi guard Qianhu Ye Zhun outside the door to enter the hospital.

At this time, Liu Jian was sitting in a jujube red sedan chair and rushed towards the western district.

staggered all the way, which annoyed him: "Haven't you arrived yet?" ”

"Come on, sir!" The butler urged the porter to go faster.

After a while, the sedan chair stopped in front of the gate of Yanfu, and the housekeeper lightly buckled the door.

Liu Jian knew that he couldn't match Yan Chengjin's inhuman secret words, and shouted: "Old man cabinet Liu Jian, open the door quickly!" ”

Menzi looked through the roster and found the portrait of the old man in the ranks of exemptions.

With a squeak, the door opened.

"Liu Yuanmi, please, my young master is in the main hall."

Liu Jian looked at the green melons and fruits in the garden, and had no intention of appreciating them, so he walked straight through the courtyard and came to the main hall: "You want to set up four divisions in the Metropolitan Procuratorate?!" ”

"What Liu Gong said is true, tomorrow morning, the lower officials will ask His Majesty for advice together with the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate." Yan Chengjin Road.

The establishment of the four divisions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is an unprecedented move in a century.

Liu Jian glared at him angrily: "The old man doesn't approve!" His Majesty will not approve of it, and the hundred officials will not approve of it! ”

"Therefore, the key to whether or not the four divisions can be set up lies in Liu Gong, and I also ask Liu Gong to advise His Majesty." Yan Chengjin looked at Liu Jian.

Liu Jian was stunned, you kid is stupid, right?

The old man is here to teach you, not to help you.

He was angry, but he smiled and said: "Haha, you kid is really interesting, even if the old man dies, he will not approve, are you afraid that you don't know the old man's temper?" ”

It's because I know the temper of your bad old man that I look for you.

Yan Chengjin took out the economic theory that he had prepared from his cuffs and handed it to Liu Jian.

"What is this?!"

"The book of economics written by the lower officials is vulgar, but it is reasonable, but it is clear."

Liu Jian didn't raise his eyelids, and snorted coldly: "The old man doesn't look at it." ”

Yan Chengjin thought about it carefully: "Dare to ask Liu Gong, is it different from three years ago today?" ”

"Naturally, the northwest switch, the silk price trade is prosperous, businessmen from all over the world come to Liangxiang to do business, businessmen pay taxes, and the treasury is becoming more and more full......" Liu Jian stopped abruptly and looked at Yan Chengjin vigilantly: "What are you asking for?" ”

Yan Chengjin's calm gaze and Liu Jian's fierce gaze fenced each other.

"Presumably Your Majesty and the princes have always been curious, where did the lower officials get these wonderful ideas? Today, I will hand it over to Liu Gong. ”

Liu Jianjian's body shook and stared at the book with burning eyes: "You mean, it's all in the book?" ”

Yan Chengjin nodded, "Among the three cabinet members, Liu Gong is the most decisive, and he can premeditate the direction of the situation and make a ruling for His Majesty. ”

The Ming Dynasty went from the middle to the decline, largely due to the economic collapse, which provoked later generations to discuss, whether Wanli spent all the silver, or Chongzhen did not give power.

Nowadays, the economy of the Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more prosperous, but the imperial court has no means to regulate the economy.

In the afterlife, there will be a big invisible hand that will regulate the economy.

When the economy is sluggish, the government buys its own goods and reduces taxes to boost the economy.

When the economy is overheated, more taxes are collected to cool the economy.

The Lingguo family has always maintained a relatively stable state of economy.

The establishment of the Economic Department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is acting as this big hand to control the economy of the Ming Dynasty through the Ministry of Households and Liangxiang.

But in a word, Liu Jian couldn't understand it, and it was better for him to read the book.

After Liu Jian got the book, he was a little angry.

Yan Chengjin persuaded: "Liu Gong might as well take it back to the house to see, the lower officials are going to eat, I haven't prepared Liu Gong's share, next time I want to eat, please let me know in advance." ”

"Humph! The old man can't eat the rice in your house! Liu Jian took the book and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard.

Ye Zhun was a little confused when he heard it, and there was a lot of information, but he grabbed a key piece of news.

Yan Chengjin wants to set up four divisions in the Metropolitan Procuratorate!

Tell your majesty!

After he left the Yan Mansion, he rode the horse that had been prepared long ago and rushed to the noon gate.

Panting and running to the Fengtian Temple, he asked the door supervisor, "Your Majesty is inside?" ”

"Who? Come on in! Emperor Hongji's angry voice came out.

Ye Zhun cautiously walked into the hall: "Your Majesty, Yan Chengjin will be in the court tomorrow morning, and he will advise the Metropolitan Procuratorate to set up four divisions." ”

Emperor Hongzhi was slightly stunned.

The staffing of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the capital, only the Imperial History of the Imperial Prefecture and the Imperial History of the Left and Right Cities, and the rest, all in Kedao.

If the four divisions are set up, wouldn't it be the same as the six divisions?

"What did he say?!"

Ye Zhun nodded heavily: "Just now, Duke Liu went to the Yan Mansion to question, and Yan Chengjin asked his subordinates to testify, and he heard it clearly. ”

Xiao Jing was also stunned, and Yan Chengjin could come up with it.

After the establishment of the four divisions, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will become seven departments, plus it has the privilege of picketing hundreds of officials.

It's comparable to the Ministry of Officials.

Emperor Hongzhi reacted from his surprise: "The dynasty is in chaos, the official position is in chaos, I don't allow it!" ”

……

Outside the palace, Liu's house.

On the way back, Liu Jian couldn't wait to read the book, but it was dark in the sedan chair, and his old eyes were dizzy, so he couldn't see clearly.

In front of Liu's mansion, after Liu came to see the sedan chair, he anxiously greeted him: "How is Lord Yan, Dad?" ”

"Get out of the way, the old man doesn't have time to teach you a lesson."

Liu Jian bypassed him and came to the study in a hurry, and the maid held the lamp.

After being a gentry in Shanxi, his great-grandfather was a secretary in the late Yuan Dynasty.

Father's official to the three hara.

The family also runs a huge business, and Liu Jian can understand the economy.

Yan Chengjin is not an economist, and his writing is very simple.

In the middle of the night, Liu Jian was still in the study, and he couldn't understand something, so he flipped through the book to find annotations.

The sky was gray and bright, and he finally finished reading it.

"How can this son understand so many truths without business?"

It was getting dark.

Yan Chengjin got off the bed, opened his hands, and let Chunxiao dress.

Today, I want to advise Emperor Hongzhi to dress low-key, and after running fifty laps, wash up and change into a unicorn suit.

In front of the noon gate, Liu Lai and Jiang Wen looked around.

When I saw the tattered sedan chair, I hurried up to meet it.

"I'll go to court with my lords."

provoked the surrounding officials to look over, Yan Chengjin reprimanded: "Be quieter." ”

Jiang Wen and the others bowed their heads in shame.

Lined up on the left and right doors, Li Dongyang looked at Xie Qian: "Why don't you see Liu Gong?" ”

"Gong Liu has always been punctual, did he take leave from His Majesty?"

It's normal to take leave, but when you're old, there are many problems.

When the golden bell rang, Yan Chengjin saw Liu Jian coming, and accompanied the hundred officials across the Jinshui Bridge and into the Fengtian Palace.

Emperor Hongzhi sat upright on the main hall.

The Cabinet began to report, followed by six ministries.

Half an hour later, I finally arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Yan Chengjin took a step and was about to walk to the center of the main hall, but Emperor Hongzhi looked at him: "There is no need for the Metropolitan Procuratorate to report." ”

Sensing His Majesty's displeasure, the hundred officials turned their heads to look at Yan Chengjin, not knowing what had happened.

Li Dongyang fell into deep thought, Your Majesty is like this, could it be that Yan Chengjin is planning something, and His Majesty knows about it?

The minister prepared the manuscript overnight, and you actually ......

Let it be stillborn.

Yan Chengjin thought about it carefully and said, "Your Majesty doesn't let the ministers report, and the ministers don't report it, but it's just ...... This matter may be related to the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty, if you don't report it......"

Emperor Hongzhi's face was cold, and his eyes showed a little anger, I won't let you report it, you just say that it is related to the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty to threaten me?

He smiled narrowly: "Then you say, I want to see what will be related to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

The hundred officials showed a suspicious look, if it is peaceful today, except for the northern Tatars, how can there be any major events?
