255 Big Iron Evergreen (Medium)

No matter what kind of cooperation, the focus is to pay attention to the distribution of interests, and the big iron company will take away the official land and military land, and although the tax and land rent will not be less, the interests of those officers who deduct military rations and officials who exploit the common people and other vested interests will lose too much under the new form. Although their original interests cannot be clearly stated, but hundreds of years of habits have made them think that they deserve it, but they are a little less justified ‰ remember the URL of this site:. Cai Fuyi knew that he couldn't hide it now, if he was polite to the court, there would be generals who would be unkind to him in the future, which would be irresponsible to himself.

Seeing Cai Fuyi ask like this, Chrome couldn't help but shake his head, he first had the idea of competing for the throne with Emperor Taichang, the father of Tianqi, and then went to Henan honestly without winning, and after a few years after Tianqi succeeded to the throne, he agreed to go back to Beijing to live, and there was also the confidence not to regard him as a threat. Although Chromium had extinguished his unrealistic thoughts, he was still a little uncomfortable with the fact that Apocalypse did not see himself as a threat, but he later saw that Apocalypse had a high prestige among the ministers and secretly admired it, and he knew that this prestige was not that Apocalypse was the emperor, but that he could convince people with reason.

However, Cai Fuyi's question exposed the true thoughts of these courtiers, even if they already had some interests in the big iron company, they still remembered the benefits they originally possessed, which proved that no loyalty and love were the most important. The most important thing for these officials is to see and touch the real money, not the ethereal loyalty, thousands of miles to be an official just for money, this is not just talking, they are always not forgotten and practiced, chromium can only shake his head about this, thinking that the two hundred years of government rule since Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang is considered to be in vain.

Cai Fu saw what Chromium meant, and he immediately explained: "I don't ask this for all of you here, including ourselves, from the system we are all the emperor's courtiers, and we must unconditionally obey all the emperor's orders." Logically speaking, we also have shares in the big iron company, and we also have benefits when the company is developed, and we have no reason to elbow outward in public or private. It's just that those middle- and lower-ranking officers in the army are not easy to talk and admit to death, and if the distribution plan is not satisfactory to them, I am afraid that something will go wrong. ”

Liu Qiao smiled and said: "Lord Cai, I actually don't say that I know, because we Jinyiwei are also soldiers, and we know those things in the barracks≠ before the emperor once said that everything is difficult at the beginning, and although it is only a nominal occupation of the field and the shop, it will not affect the original user's hoeing property and operation, but it will definitely touch the interests of some people." The emperor allowed us to mobilize up to 400,000 stone grain and 400,000 taels of silver for the early start, but this is a loan rather than an allocation that needs to be returned in the future, Lord Gao is probably not very aware of it not long after he came, Lord Cai and Lord Zhu should know the details for many years, so let's talk about how much subsidies should be given to those officers? ”

Liu Qiao's question was very interesting, he did not say that he would not compensate those officers, but even said the maximum amount of compensation money and food, which could not be described as insincere, but it was precisely because of this that Cai Fuyi and Zhu Xieyuan felt inexplicably uneasy. The so-called compensation means that the officers can no longer drink the blood of the soldiers, and can no longer treat the military land as their own private land to collect rent in disguise, and they can't say it explicitly when they ask for benefits, but in the name of redistribution, and now Liu Qiao wants Cai Fuyi to say the specific amount, and Cai Fuyi is not easy to say, because as long as you say more, it proves that you have embezzled a lot before, and Jinyiwei is in charge of these things.

Seeing that Cai Fuyi and Zhu Xieyuan looked at each other but didn't speak, Gao Di just drank tea and didn't even look at it, Chrome squinted his eyes as if he was dozing off and seemed to be smiling, Liu Qiao smiled and said: "I know what the two adults are worried about, since it is inconvenient for you to say it, I will say it for you, I don't know what the two adults think?" ”

Zhu Xieyuan sighed and said: "There are some things that cannot be said, and some things that cannot be done, if it is our own business, what can we say?" But when it comes to many middle and lower-level officers, we are not good at pressing, they are all unreasonable rough people, it is said that they are reasonable with knives whenever they are wrong□ since you know the joints, we don't say much, everything is arranged by the prince and Lord Liu. ”

Chromium originally had nothing to do with himself, but when he heard Zhu Xieyuan mention him, he hurriedly said: "Lord Liu is following the emperor's will and this king doesn't know about it, so this king has no arrangements and doesn't dare to make arrangements, so it's up to Lord Liu to say it." ”

Liu Qiao said: "According to the emperor's will, whether it is a military field or an official field, it will all be included in the big iron company in the future, and the benefits that the previous officials have received in it will be gone." Although the benefits they got in the past were not glorious, it was also because the court had too little money, so the emperor did not blame it. However, the emperor hated those who were too ruthless and could be too fierce, and ordered us to check by the way, if there are officials who are shameless and crazy to exploit the people and soldiers, no matter who they are, no matter how much ability and merit they have, they will all be arrested and punished according to the law! ”

Sure enough, it lured the snake out of the hole! Cai Fuyi admired his keen sense of smell a little, he nodded and said: "We all hate those shameless and insatiable people, and we will never be kind to them." However, the original benefits of ordinary officials are gone, and Lord Liu began to say that it is because there are too few Yulu and it is a problem left over from history, and it needs to be subsidized by other names, so how much is it better to set a specific number? ”

Liu Qiao said: "I don't know how much I have lost, I believe that Lord Cai and Lord Zhu will not be able to say the specific amount for a while, but we can use the standards of other things to compare." Since the beginning of the previous year, the imperial court has stipulated that the tax on acres of land is one percent and the land rent is two percent, which is the highest limit, and it is also a regulation on the premise of ensuring the livelihood of the people, and the profits of ordinary merchants are also limited to two percent, and the interest on loans of all money banks is also limited to one cent of interest, and only the income of new industries such as mining and construction is allowed to be 50 percent, but two must be temporarily withheld to become a guarantee, so the subsidies for officials should be between 10 and 20 percent. ”

Gao Di didn't want to talk much about whether to give subsidies or not, but since he had decided to give subsidies only to discuss how much, he knew that he should say a few words, otherwise he would be looked down upon for his five provincial strategies. "Subsidies to officials are not one-time but long-term, so as to prevent their greed from harming the whole system, that is, to limit human greed to a controllable range," Gaudí said. However, what Mr. Liu said about between one and two percent refers to things and things rather than people, if one to two percent of the income on this thing is exchanged for people, how much should it be? ”

Liu Qiao said: "This is also a saying, last year the imperial court to the provinces and counties to share a part of the tax, from the county to the province to the province of the ratio is fifty into three into two percent of the relationship, the number below but only one county and the number of above is small but many counties handed over, so that everyone feels acceptable, I believe that the subsidy is similar." As for the specific number of people, I'll see, well, it's increased by half. ”

Liu Qiao's words were all memorized in advance, and when he couldn't remember it halfway through, he took out a piece of paper and looked at it, and the others originally thought it was strange how a rough man who was a soldier could suddenly talk eloquently, but now they knew that he was reading from the book.

Zhu Xieyuan said with a smile: "There is still a draft of what Lord Liu said, I don't know who wrote it to Lord Liu?" Or did Lord Liu hire a senior staff member? ”

Liu Qiao said: "Let everyone laugh, Liu is afraid that he will not be able to remember or say the wrong thing and delay things, so he asked Lord Yang Lianyang of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to write something in advance according to the emperor's ideas." ”

Zhu Xieyuan said with a smile: "It turns out that Lord Liu and Yang Yushi still have this friendship, one is in charge of the officials and the other is in charge of the soldiers, and the civil and military are enviable!" ”

Zhu Xieyuan's words seemed to be a joke, but everyone listened to it with a pang in their hearts, this Yang Lian is an important minister in the court, and his status in the Imperial Procuratorate is second only to Gao Panlong, but he has a lot of friendship with the officials of Jinyiwei in private, which is a taboo thing no matter how you say it. Tianqi said the year before last that there can be no friendship between eunuchs and courtiers, and courtiers and border generals are not allowed to communicate privately, although Jinyiwei does not guard the border pass and does not belong to the border generals, but they protect the safety of the emperor and its special cannot be ignored, this Yang Lian and Liu Qiao have a shallow friendship in private, so they are not afraid of taboos?

Everyone was there, but Liu Qiao didn't care at all, he said: "I used to have an old relationship with Lord Yang because of official business, the emperor knows about this matter, there is no taboo, and since he served in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, we have never had any contact ♀, and the emperor has also seen the idea that Lord Yang came up with for me, so you don't have to have any ideas." ”

Zhu Xieyuan also felt guilty for the beginning of the questioning, and then he sighed and said: "Since the emperor agrees to let Lord Liu announce it, it is equivalent to announcing the emperor's will, why should Lord Liu hide and hide, just read it directly." ”

Liu Qiao said: "What is wrong with Lord Zhu's words! The decree is something that has already been decided, and since it has been decided, what should it be discussed? The emperor said that these can only be suggestions and not decisions, and the actual situation in various localities cannot be generalized. Anyway, the key to the proposal is to subsidize half, if you have any opinions to say, you can also ask those middle and lower-level officials, and everyone can discuss an acceptable plan. ”

Zhu Xieyuan nodded and said, "In that case, let's first ask the opinions of the people below, do the emperor and Lord Yang have any suggestions that Lord Liu needs to announce?" ”

Liu Qiao took it out and looked at it and said: "As long as the military field is converted into an official field, the rest is to hand over the official shop and retired personnel in the official field to the big iron company, and the big iron company is in charge of the local officials and people, so the big man and the two governors should inform the governors of the five provinces that since the governors don't care about military affairs after the restructuring, their attention should be turned to civil affairs." ”

Gao Di said: "This is no problem and it should have been like this a long time ago, the army is a war, you can't take care of anything else, you want people to ask for food, you can reach out to the governor for food, soldiers are going to retire, just push them to the governor, you can do the same thing well, and if you want to manage everything, the consequence is that you can't manage anything well." ”

In the next few days, when the imperial court's proposal was announced to all the officers, big and small, they asked if they had any opinions, and asked if they had any opinions on the fact that a piece of military land would be taken away but would increase the income of each officer by half.
