Chapter 29 High Salaries and Honest Pensions

The ministers in the court were not stupid, and they all saw that Emperor Hongzhi was really distressed.

Therefore, after the next dynasty, Li Dongyang was surrounded.

"Gong Li, dare to ask Ling Lang if he can sell some shares to me in advance."

"Binzhi, I'll go to your house to find you later."

……

Similar words emerge endlessly.

And Li Dongyang agreed one by one.

Because this is a matter that he has long been angry with Emperor Hongzhi and Li Zhaotong.

At that time, in order to be more convincing, Li Zhaotong tied the ministers to the chariot, and he put forward a word: high salary and honesty!

This word touched Emperor Hongzhi deeply.

Emperor Hongzhi is a Ming monarch, of course he is aware of the problem of corruption among officials, and he also realized that it is actually a problem for Emperor Taizu Gao to set the official salary very low, like there are some honest officials in the imperial court, in fact, there are certain problems in clothing, food, housing and transportation.

For example, the late Pavilion Lao Qiu Jun.

So, in this case, it is really extremely difficult to get officials to be honest.

After all, my family can't even eat, and you still expect me to resist the temptation to be honest?

Emperor Hongzhi thought that he could not do it himself.

However, knowing that there is such a serious situation, but Emperor Hongzhi really does not have a very good solution, because the treasury has no money, once the official salary is raised, it is a big matter that affects the whole body, and the expenditure will inevitably not be small.

What's more, this move also violates the ancestral system!

Therefore, when Li Zhaotong proposed a high salary and a low salary, and also proposed it in this unique way, it immediately made Emperor Hongzhi's eyes shine.

He has already asked Jinyiwei and Dongchang to investigate, and for those Qing officials who are really honest enough to have problems with food and clothing, he is ready to reward dozens to hundreds of stocks.

For example, Chen Shou, the Qing of Nanjing Honglu Temple, Emperor Hongzhi had long known that this was a Qing official, and he was ready to give a reward.

Who is Chen Shou?

This may be the Qing officials of the Ming generation who are not inferior to Hai Jui.

His ancestral home is Jiangxi, but he was born in Liaoning, and his family is a soldier who has guarded the frontier for generations.

He was the first student from a military household in the Ming Dynasty to gain fame in history.

As early as the Chenghua period when Emperor Hongzhi and his father Zhu Jianshen were emperors, this old brother became famous.

He didn't have a backstage, and at that time, he dared to impeach Emperor Chenghua, Wan Guifei, Demon Monk Jixiao, Eunuch Liang Fang, Papier Paste Pavilion Lao Wan'an, Liu Jue, Liu Ji and others.

In short, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, as long as there was a problem, were almost offended by him.

He also went to prison because of this, but after he went in, he scolded those corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

Emperor Hongzhi's benefactor, a good eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, and after the eunuch Huai'en rescued him, he still did not repent and continued to scold!

In the end, Chenghua Emperor Zhu Jianshen couldn't help him, so he let him stay in the position of the household department for more than ten years.

After Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne, Huai En strongly recommended him, and Wang Shu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites at that time, also had a blue eye for him and recommended him to be a Dali Temple.

It's a pity that Liu Ji, the old man of his papier-mâché pavilion, was the first assistant at that time, and he must strongly oppose it.

Another pavilion elder, Xu Pu, who gave the "Qingming Riverside Map" to Li Dongyang, also objected.

The reason Xu Pu gave was that although Chen Shou was honest and virtuous, he had no work experience.

Indeed, Xu Pu is not wrong, Chen Shou has no practical work experience.

He was pressed by Emperor Chenghua in the position of the household department for more than ten years, and his usual work is to settle accounts, and by the way, he scolds and scolds, where does he get practical work experience!

Dali Temple is going to judge the case!

Honesty alone will not do!

But you can't help but promote!

Rectify the rule of officials, such a Qing official should be praised, so, Emperor Hongzhi had no choice but to throw him to Nanjing to be the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, and later changed to Honglu Temple Qing, Zheng Sipin.

The grade is very high, but everyone knows that this is a position for the elderly.

In this way, Chen Shou has been working for more than ten years, usually writing chapters and reading books.

If there is no variable of Li Zhaotong, in the future, Chen Shouhui was recommended by Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, that is, in 1500 AD, and at the age of sixty, he was sent to Yansui as the governor, and was the second product to prevent the invasion of Tatar Dayan Khan.

Born in the military, he has some experience in the military, and he really defended it and made Yansui a solid business.

Two years later, he returned to Beijing and was promoted to the right deputy capital of Nanjing.

After that, Emperor Hongzhi died, Zhu Houzhao came to power, Liu Jin was in turmoil, he fought with Liu Jin, was dismissed and investigated, almost died, and later Liu Jin was reactivated after the fall, until the official to the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu, died in the first year of Jiajing, at the age of eighty-two.

When he died, his family was poor and white, the house was rented, and his family didn't even have the money to buy him a coffin.

Of course, at this time, it was only the eleventh year of Hongzhi, and it was still early for these things to happen, and with the variable of Li Zhaotong, it would not necessarily happen, but at this time, Chen Shou was already a Qing official with a name and surname.

As for why he became a Honglu Siqing in Nanjing, it may be because this old brother's mouth cannon ability is too strong!

Have a fight with Wang Shu, who was ousted by the cautious Qiu Jun!

Therefore, Emperor Hongzhi may not want to find unpleasantness for himself, so he selectively forgets him, but when it comes to Qing officials, Emperor Hongzhi must remember him.

……

Reward the clean officials who have no money, other officials can't ignore it, high salaries and honesty, the most important thing is to be honest with these people, after all, officials like Chen Shou are actually rich or not, and people's moral standards are enough to restrain themselves.

Therefore, at the instigation of Li Zhaotong, Emperor Hongzhi referred to Li Zhaotong's method of pulling Xungui on the chariot to sell pig iron, so he brought these civil servants and some military generals with him, and also sold stocks to them in advance.

He made a decision that all officials in Beijing could go to Li Zhaotong to buy the original shares of Xishan Coal and Miyun Mining in advance.

Of course, depending on the rank of officer, the quantity purchased is different.

Therefore, these people looked for Li Dongyang, and Li Dongyang agreed one by one.

……

There is no leaky wall in the world, and the news that the civil and military officials and nobles in the capital are rushing to buy the shares of Xishan Coal Industry and Miyun Mining quickly spread.

Of course, it is inevitable that Li Zhaotong will send people to add fuel to the fire and publicize it widely.

Therefore, everyone knows that Xishan Coal Industry and Miyun Mining will be very profitable!

I also know that on March 15, at the headquarters of the former West Factory and the current Daming Royal Stock Exchange, stock trading will be opened, and everyone will be able to buy and sell stocks at that time.

And then there's all the news to popularize stocks.

Knowing this, ordinary people may just think that selling such cheap honeycomb coal is so profitable, and it has become a topic of conversation after dinner.

Because of the stock of one or two pieces of silver, they did not dare to buy it.

But for those businessmen and squires, this Ming Royal Stock Exchange is of great significance!

This place must be profitable!

Especially those businessmen who lack money to expand their business, their eyes are even greener, and they are hungry wolf-like light!

Merchants and squires, gear up for the arrival of March 15th!
