From this, Zhu Yijun also saw one point, that is, the weakening of the power of traditional cultivation and reading heirlooms, which is probably an important reason why they can't beat the Donglin Party in the party struggle, after all, who doesn't want money.

Most of the traditional farming and heirloom gentry began to turn to business because of the attraction of profits, and they were also a shrewd part of it.

The rest are conservative and conservative old-fashioned schools, and it is strange that they can win the war when the quality and quantity are not as good. As for those who are born in poverty, the road is about to be blocked, and they have no right to speak.

Under these circumstances, it is normal for the country to be controlled by officials and businessmen.

Coupled with the work of science, these have become one thing in front and one thing in the back, and they are conservative to the outside world, without the slightest bit of capitalist aggression. Because these people are not capitalist at all, at most bureaucratic capitalism.

With a sigh, Zhu Yijun put down the information in his hand and rubbed his head with a headache.

I am now on the cusp of this change, and how to guide and limit it has become the most important thing. Zhu Yijun pondered for a long time, constantly pondering in his heart, pondering a complete big plan.

Northwest, Datong Province.

For Zeng Xingwu, this place in the northwest is still a little cold, although the capital is not warm now, but it is still much better than the northwest. The wind was blowing, so that Zeng Xingwu's face was blown apart as soon as he went out.

It was better to smear some marmot oil for the past two days, and when there was nothing to do, he didn't go out of the house.

"My lord, Gonggong Zhang, the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and Mr. Li, the manager of the inner factory, are here!"

Hearing the report of his subordinates, Zeng Xingwu was not surprised, he had been in the northwest these days, and he had dealt with these two the most. Although he also has something to do, Zeng Xingwu clearly knows that the things he wants to do must wait for their affairs to be done well.

Seeing the two people walking in, Zeng Xingwu was not polite, pointed to the stool and said: Sit! ”

The three of them see each other eight times a day, and if they come and go politely, many things don't have to be done. Coupled with Zeng Xingwu's status, treating it like this will not make people feel rude, but will make people feel kind.

Zhang Cheng and Li Zhongxing were not polite, the two of them sat down with a smile, stretched out their hands and roasted them on the charcoal basin.

"What's the good news for you two today?" Zeng Xingwu raised his head and looked at the two people, and spoke.

"Good news!" Li Zhongxing smiled and handed a package to Zeng Xingwu: "Adults, please look, woolen coats, this has been made, this one is the best in this batch, keep adults warm." ”

Zeng Xingwu suddenly became interested, reached out to unfold the woolen coat, reached out and touched it, and said with a smile: "Very good, thick, warm, good thing!" As he spoke, he put it on his body.

"My lord, look at this!" Li Zhongxing took a ball of thread, and there were two pieces of clothing behind it.

"This is wool, this is a sweater and sweaters!" Li Zhongxing said while showing Zeng Xingwu: "Thick, warm, put on this set of sweaters and pants, and put on a woolen coat outside, it's not cold at all." ”

Zeng Xingwu hurriedly took it and looked at it, and then his face frowned.

These things are trouser legs and pullovers, which have nothing to do with the large sleeves of civil officials' robes, but look more like profane pants. But thinking that it was worn inside, Zeng Shengwu could understand.

"To match it, we at the Ministry of Internal Affairs have also designed new outerpants."

It was a set of gray pants that looked similar to the shape of woolen pants, with a black belt on it and a buckle at the front. It's just that unlike the commonly used belts, this one is not a jade buckle, but an iron one.

Zeng Xingwu looked at the pants and belt, and asked with some hesitation, "Does anyone buy this?" ”

Li Zhongxing didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "This is not for Confucianism, it is for sale to generals and ordinary people." Speaking of this, Li Zhongxing stopped talking and did not continue.

Although Li Zhongxing didn't say anything, Zeng Xingwu certainly heard the meaning of the words.

You civil officials dislike it, then don't wear it, the long robe with big sleeves continues, anyway, it can't be exposed inside, and no one cares if it's naked. But for ordinary people and warriors, it is necessary to wear outer pants.

Zeng Xingwu didn't dwell on this issue, anyway, it's not his business if he can't sell it, as long as the Internal Affairs Office likes it.

"Is everything ready for the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Zeng Xingwu looked at Li Zhongxing and asked.

Li Zhongxing nodded: "I have made an appointment with the stewards of ten firms, and we will discuss the matter tomorrow." Speaking of this, Li Zhongxing turned his head to look at Zhang Cheng, and then asked, "Father-in-law Zhang, your affairs are almost ready, right?" ”

Since the last time he followed Qi Jiguang to Datong Mansion, the father-in-law Zhang of the Imperial Horse Supervisor has not left.

Those who knew that he was supervising the army with the army, and those who didn't know thought that he was going to be a supervisor in the northwest. It's just that Zeng Xingwu and Li Zhongxing knew that this Gonggong Zhang came to the northwest, and he definitely didn't come here to drink the northwest wind.

"Ready!" Zhang Cheng looked at Zeng Xingwu: "Lord Zeng, I have brought all the documents, and I will ask Lord Zeng to take a look at them later." ”

Zeng Xingwu nodded, his face became serious, he knew that his next test was coming.

There was no need for Li Zhongxing to stay here, he got up and left, he knew that the next words were not something he could hear. Zeng Xingwu and Zhang Cheng also knew this, so they didn't keep it.

The fire in the room was burning very strongly, Zhang Cheng was sitting quietly, and Zeng Xingwu was constantly looking at the information.

"Father-in-law Zhang, is this a bit excessive?" Zeng Xingwu put down the paperwork in his hand and said with some hesitation.

In Zhang Cheng's documents, among the people who want to clean up this time, there are two deputy chief soldiers, four commanders under the deputy chief soldiers, and even more in the thousands and hundreds of households below, adding up to dozens of people.

Coupled with the civilian officials in the army, there are more than 100 people, and it is easy to get into chaos if you take out so many people at one time!

Zhang Cheng was unmoved: "Lord Zeng, you should have seen the sins on this." ”

Zeng Xingwu sighed, of course he saw it, embezzling military salaries, storing private troops, reselling ordnance, and bullying men and women are all petty crimes. The key is that the evidence is conclusive, this is going to be fatal, if these charges are confirmed, these people are estimated to not be alive.

Seeing that Zeng Xingwu was still hesitant, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "What is Lord Zeng worried about?" ”

Zeng Xingwu was a little helpless, obviously the big victory in the northwest gave many people confidence, and this Zhang Gonggong should be one of them. However, Zeng Xingwu also knew that this was indeed the best opportunity to reorganize the Northwest Army.

There was no war on the frontier, and there was no threat from foreign enemies, so Zeng Xingwu nodded and said, "Okay! ”
