In fact, Apocalypse has long known that some people are dissatisfied with reality, and he feels that it is normal to be dissatisfied with reality, and the status quo is not worth making a fuss about. If one day everyone is very satisfied with the reality, people are content with the status quo and do not want to forge ahead, it means that the society has lost the momentum to move forward, which is not necessarily a good thing.

Among these dissatisfied people, there are mainly large households who had to sell their surplus land under the pressure of the imperial court, officials who were about to be promoted by seniority but were intercepted by people favored by the apocalypse, and even people from the North and South Chamber of Commerce who cooperated with the imperial court to do business. The big families are dissatisfied because the apocalypse has cut off their channels for increasing wealth, the officials are dissatisfied because they feel that they have been treated unfairly, and the people of the North and South Chamber of Commerce are dissatisfied because of the cap ♀ of 20% of the profits of the Apocalypse, who is the person who writes the street tabloids, and the apocalypse does not know and is not interested in knowing, he only knows that if the problem of these three parts of the people is solved, then everything will settle down.

Apocalypse looked at the seemingly loyal officials below, and couldn't help but feel a little amused, the degree of hypocrisy of officials at any time was higher than that of others. Perhaps the people who wrote the tabloids were among these people, but everyone tried their best to be loyal and honest, whether they were pretending to be stupid or treating the emperor as a fool, only the person concerned knew best.

Tianqi first asked Zhu Yanxi: "Master Zhu, I remember that you promised to rush ahead and never give up, and you also had to make a plan to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to make trouble, now can you tell me where your plan is?" How are you going to find out who wrote this tabloid and kill him for you as you promised? ”

Zhu Yanxi bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the minister failed to prevent such a thing from happening in advance, but when the minister goes back, he will let the criminal department solve the case within a time limit according to the emperor's will, and this person must be arrested and punished." ”

Tianqi thought for a while and said: "Actually, this kind of thing may not be effective if it is handled by the Criminal Department, if I really want to hold me accountable, it would be better for the internal guards and Jinyi guards to handle it." I'm not afraid to tell you, yesterday there was already a brocade guard according to the handwriting, paper, tabloid appearance of the order of the general scope of activities of these people, ready to continue to the local people door-to-door investigation was stopped by me∞, I think this is not a person or a very small number of people's radical practice, it can be said that a considerable number of people have accumulated a lot of grievances for a long time, this grievance is like water can not be blocked, only find the gap and accurately cut the grievance to eliminate the grievance, is the way to long-term peace and stability. ”

Zhu Yanxi asked: "The emperor is merciful, but is it really just a matter of letting them go?" ”

Apocalypse shook his head and said, "Even if someone is caught, locked up or killed, these people's resentment will also exist, and others will also feel the same way when they encounter what happened to them. Instead of forcibly grabbing people and blocking their mouths, it is better to reason with them and attack their hearts to solve the problem fundamentally. Speaking of which, this is also my fault, a while ago, due to the urgency of time, I did many things first and then said, and even did not say or explain them, so it is inevitable that there will be unequal, unfair, and slightly rough places. Although the internal situation has not been fully resolved, it has at least eased compared to last year, and the border defense has stabilized, so I have decided to make up for this mistake, which is why I am not prepared to investigate these people deeply. ”

Zhu Yanxi nodded and said, "Since the emperor has already made up his mind, then please ask the emperor to show his subordinates what to do." ”

Tianqi said: "I say three points, one is to consider how to be fair and reasonable in the arrangement of officials, not only to make the officials in each position the most suitable person, but also to convince the vast majority of people to be convinced ♀ of him, the issue is to be considered by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, you might as well make a general plan privately, and then widely solicit opinions among the officials, if there are different opinions, you can go to the Holy Academy to ask the opinions of the old ministers, or debate with each other in the Holy Academy∞ the purpose is to prefer lack to abuse, If you can't find a perfect plan for a while, you also need the consent of the vast majority of people, and don't consider things that are evenly matched and disputed for the time being, Liu Zongzhou and Lord Liu also want your people to use their brains. ”

Liu Zongzhou and Gao Panlong said in unison: "Honorable Minister! ”

Tianqi nodded and said: "The second thing is the consideration of large private households, who originally bought land and land when they had extra silver, and obtained more profits by collecting land rent or planting cash crops. Since I want to take the land out to grow food, and let the landless people own the land again, I have to force the big households to sell the land, so that they have more money in their hands, but there are no investment channels, no one will believe that ♀ there is no grievance, it is the matter of the Government Council, the main thing is that the pre-government department should be attentive, you have to consider how to give the big families a reasonable and orderly investment channel, only the big families have a place to make money through investment, and the ordinary people can follow closely and achieve common prosperity. ”

At this time, King Xin came out and said: "May I ask the emperor, the investment channels of these big families should be different from the prosperity paths of ordinary people, how should the government affairs yuan distinguish the relationship between this aspect?" Why do you want to put the big families before the people? The younger brother also discussed with other adults a while ago whether to set up workshops, dig mines and other investment output matters, but also because they did not solve the problem of how to introduce private funds and delayed for a long time. ”

Tianqi nodded and said: "King Xin's hard work makes my brother very pleased, first the big family and then the ordinary people are taken for granted, because I think this is like building a road, first move the big stones away and then talk about leveling the land, if the big stones are not moved away, I am afraid that they will get in the way." Of course, you can ignore my words, and listen to whoever says it right, and in this regard, the Son of Heaven is not necessarily much smarter than ordinary people who farm and do business. If you have any questions, you can go to the Bo College and ask those who are knowledgeable, Xu Guangqi Xu should also let your people come out to solve practical problems, the sage also said, 'If you learn without thinking, you will be reckless, and if you don't learn, you will die', even if you believe in that Jesus, you are still a disciple of the saint, so do what the sage says. ”

Xu Guangqi and King Xin also said yes again and again after hearing the words of the apocalypse.

Tianqi glanced at the ministers, and then said to Liu Yixie, the assistant minister of the Government Council: "Third, Lord Liu, you are in charge of the affairs of Qian Zhuang and the Road Merchants Bureau in the Government Council. They complained that I set a limit of 20% of the sealed profits, hindering the speed of their wealth, and complaining while making a fortune, is it considered to pick up the bowl to eat meat and put down the bowl to scold the mother? You have to explain this matter to them clearly, if I relax the restrictions and do not restrain them, then they will definitely hurt the interests of ordinary people driven by greed, he will sell two yuan for one penny, and he will charge five taels for three taels, and in the long run, it will inevitably violate the law, and no one will be able to save them at that time. ”

Liu Yixiao said: "Merchants are profit-seeking, and they occasionally complain that the minister has heard of it, but to say that they are so mad that they try to attack the emperor, do the ministers think that some plants and trees are all soldiers?" After all, they all have interests in it. ”

Apocalypse sneered and said, "It's not a big mistake to take a little more precautions, ordinary people won't rebel as long as they have food to eat, because they don't have the guts and expectations that are enough to make them crazy." But the major shareholders in these chambers of commerce are different, the interests in their eyes are magnified by several times, and when it is really crazy, don't say that they have two percent of the profits, even if they are given twice the profits, they will be too little. Once they decide to take risks driven by huge interests, they will ask for money, money, power, and power, and who can stand in their way under the combined force of power and money? ”

Liu Yixiao thought for a while and said: "The emperor's worries are not unreasonable, so what should the emperor do when he comes to see the ministers?" ”

Tianqi said: "You tell them that restricting the capped profits is not a suppression of them but a protection for them, and if they don't need this protection, they can withdraw at any time, but if the court finds out that they have done something that harms the people, then no one can save them." I would like to remind you here that all officials should keep a sufficient distance from these merchants, and if I find out that they have power to trade for money, then be prepared to be buried alive. ”
