New Bayi Chinese Network - A collection of online novel reading networks
It was in this situation that Qin Shiqi, Luo Yiru, and Meng Mingshi, three Jinshi, met in the same year and went to the Southeast Mansion.
Luo Yiru and Meng Mingshi's experience is similar to Qin Shiqi's, their careers are not very proud, they are all living in Nanjing, they learned the news, sighed for a long time, and thought about countermeasures.
If there is no variable in the southeast province, then they can only go with the flow, and they will not be able to help themselves when the northern captives sweep China in the future.
But they are in Nanjing, they know the Southeast Mansion, they know that the Southeast Mansion vigorously recruits people, and they want both high, medium and low-end, such as the Ming Jinshi class, when they arrive at the Southeast Mansion, they can be awarded the county magistrate after studying.
So you can show your life's strengths!
In recent years, the Southeast Prefecture has increased its attractiveness to the Ming Dynasty, especially favoring the scholar class such as Jinshi and Juren, and absorbing them into the civil service system of the Southeast Prefecture.
In this way, the three came to Kaohsiung.
China is a society of personal feelings, and Sun Chengzong, a former high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty, sat here, of course, he had to visit him in order to advance the road.
Sun Chengzong is very happy, the Jinshi are coming to defect, and more and more Jinshi are coming to defect, which proves that I am not alone!
Since the beginning of this year, including the current three Jinshi, eight Ming Jinshi have defected to the Southeast Mansion within a year!
They are the vested interests of the Ming Dynasty, and even they have run away, which shows that the Ming Dynasty is already stormy and embattled!
Strong winds and waves hit ships at sea, and smart people are the first to flee!
Sun Chengzong gave three tips to the new arrivals:
"Leaders employ people, focus on like-mindedness, agree with their ideas, can be together!" Sun Chengzong said straight to the point.
"Where the leader is, that is, the central government, the provincial, city, county, and township administrations at all levels must maintain a high degree of consistency with the central government. Remember, remember! He said sternly.
"The central government has made long-term, medium- and short-term plans, long-term plans for 10 years or more, medium-term plans for five years, and short-term plans for one year.
"That is, development is the last word, hard work to rejuvenate the country, empty talk misleads the country, rule of law first, pay attention to the development plan, realize the plan, assess various indicators, and the economy is especially important......"
It was rare to have a casual and enthusiastic day, and he explained them one by one, and they quickly understood the main meaning.
This is also the reason why the leader uses the Ming Jinshi, these people are the smartest guys in the Chinese, and they have super comprehension ability, it cannot be said that they are dead and read dead books, but they follow the baton of the Ming college entrance examination, but their quality is there.
Of course, most of the Jinshi have formed their own ideas, such as the ideas of the Donglin Party, and under normal circumstances, they will not change their ways.
However, the Jinshi who came to the Southeast Province had some understanding of the measures of the Southeast Province, and had already initially agreed with the concept of the Southeast Province, and if everyone was out of place, they would not come.
As he said, Sun Chengzong immediately went to test them and asked them to give an example to listen!
"I'll start throwing bricks and stones!" Qin Shiqi arched his hand and said: "Regarding the prosperity of the country through hard work and empty talk about misleading the country, I think it is really insightful!" ”
"Only when it develops, the people can live a decent life, and the imperial court has a strong army and sufficient military salaries, can the society be safe."
"Officials have integrity, but they are incapable, and they are too idealistic, their ideas are unrealistic, and they can't do practical things by talking about morality, however, officials must also be restrained......" Qin Shiqi gushed endlessly.
Sun Chengzong's jaw, although what Qin Shiqi said cannot be completely in tune with the concept of the Southeast Mansion, the general direction is correct, but it can be carried out!
Luo Yiru gave an example: "It's too late to raise taxes!" ”
"In December last year, Emperor Ming issued an edict to increase the tariffs of the world, and the initial tariffs increased by one dollar per two, Chongwenmen, Hexiwu, Linqing, Jiujiang, Hushu, Yangzhou, Beixin, Huai'an eight passes, an increase of 50,000 taels. Soon, two more coins were added. Zheng Sanjun, the secretary of the household department, said that "the tax amount collected by the Xuanjiao Division in Nanjing is 10,000 to 30,000", and Zheng Sanjun, the secretary of the household department in Nanjing, said that "there is not much tax collected by the Xuanjiao, and the tax in Wuhu is requested to offset the increase", and the self-strictness is to discuss "the tax in Wuhu is 30,000, and the tax in the Xuanjiao is still increased by 10,000". Later, the tariff was increased by 200,000 taels, and the merchants and people became increasingly poor. ”
Luo Yiru sighed: "This is a move to hold Buddha's feet in a hurry, at first the people were rich, facing internal thieves and foreign captives, and the tax should have been raised a long time ago, but now natural disasters and man-made disasters in various places, the people are poor, even if the tax increase is not much, the merchants and people are getting poorer and poorer, of course, ......"
When he saw Sun Chengzong paying attention, he gritted his teeth and said: "In the area south of the Yangtze River and the southeast coast, the private business is developed, and a large amount of silver is smuggled from overseas, which can be described as rich, but it can't collect taxes, and it is not even as good as the eunuch party in the court. ”
He analyzed in depth: "There was a big problem in the Ming Dynasty's finances, and the industrial and commercial taxes were not taken, but agricultural taxes were added, and they were doomed!" ”
"No!" Meng Mingshi said to him: "If you want to get industrial and commercial taxes, you must be recognized by officials, but now if officials don't agree, how can they collect it?" ”
"Today's matter is the fault of the Donglin Party!" Luo Yiru retorted.
Qin Shiqi said softly: "This is the importance of keeping in line with the central government!" Understand or not, should be executed. ”
Sun Chengzong nodded and said, "Not bad!" ”
He raised his eyebrows: "The central decision-making of my southeast government cannot be said to be right in everything, but so far, my southeast government has still done a good job, and almost everyone is satisfied, the army is well paid, and the war is constantly won, the businessmen are confident, willing to invest, and the people have money to spare. ”
"However, my tax revenue is 20%, why can the people afford it?" Sun Chengzong took the three Jinshi Dao.
"It's simple." Qin Shiqi said without thinking: "There is a lot of silver from outside!" ”
Sun Chengzong stroked his palms and laughed: "It seems that Gongyong knows a lot about finance!" ”
He sneered: "Don't be a greedy word, now our southeast government controls foreign trade, and there are tens of millions of taels of silver a year, so much money, if you pay taxes, how can the Ming Dynasty have no money." ”
The evaluation is: "The Donglin Party is in the dynasty, but it is a chicken feather!" ”
……
Sun Chengzong talked very happily, and when he saw that the sun was approaching, he left them down to eat.
The dish is simple, it is bitter gourd pork bone soup, fried river shrimp, fried shredded potatoes, fried pumpkin seedlings, and added a hard dish, and temporarily went to the street to buy a hanging barbecued pork, this is Cantonese cuisine, but the southeast mansion is inclusive, eat everything, Sun Chengzong said a little proudly: "Bitter gourd, potatoes and pumpkin are all picked here!" ”
Naturally, it aroused the compliments of the three, but Sun Chengzong said: "There are also problems with the self-sufficient economy!" Hey, don't say so much, eat first! ”
The three Jinshi can also be regarded as having seen the food at the home of the senior members of the Southeast Mansion, not badly, and they eat cleanly, but fortunately, the three of them usually live not very well, otherwise they are really not used to it!
Sun Chengzong was an old man and told them: "Now officials except for the army, all the officials take care of their own food, the government expenditure is strictly audited, everyone eats their own food, as for accepting bribes, once they are caught, they will be held accountable, and they will be put into another nationality, and their descendants and grandchildren will not be allowed to join the army and politics!" ”
The three Jinshi couldn't help but be shocked!
