Chapter 190: Conscription
In this book, Zhu Yijun also saw a problem, that is, the problem of businessmen.
These people have all gone to do business, and it is obvious that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has still brought a wave of business fever, and it is estimated that there will soon be a rush of gold rush in the grasslands. It's not that there's gold there, it's that there's riches.
They are willing to let the officials and gentry pay the money for grain, and they are afraid that it will be troublesome to collect business taxes in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yijun remembered the things in the northwest again, and he didn't know what was going on over there.
Glancing up at Zhang Whale, Zhu Yijun opened his mouth and asked, "Is there a twist and turn in the northwest?" ”
"Emperor Hui, Lord Zeng, the governor of Xuanda, has an excerpt, just below!" Zhang Whale hurriedly spoke.
Zhu Yijun flipped down, and sure enough, he found a note, Zeng Xingwu had already given himself a note two days ago, but that note was to ask for guilt, and then introduced some of his own experiences in the northwest, as well as his determination for the next step.
Obviously, if he asked Zhang Weixian to bring it, it had an effect, Zhu Yijun had to sigh, appeasing the minister is also a technical job, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister is really similar to that of husband and wife. opened the fold and took a look, Zhu Yijun found that it was about buying land.
Of course he knew about it, and it was something he had done himself.
Zhu Yijun doesn't care about what Zeng Xingwu thinks, after all, it is an excerpt, his attitude has been shown, the key is what other people think. Flipping through the cabinet votes at the back, Zhu Yijun suddenly had a smile on his face.
The Cabinet's vote is very simple, it is recommended to be implemented, and this is sufficient.
Zhu Yijun folded the piece, then picked up the red pen and drew a red circle on it.
Here, Zhu Yijun has already approved the purchase of land, and the fold has not yet been returned to the governor's yamen, and Datong Mansion is actually already busy. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has already taken people to measure the land, and Li Zhongxing has begun to preside over the distribution of land.
In fact, for Li Zhongxing, the businessman did not dare to offend, but he also scolded in his heart.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has found a good deal for everyone, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs has to take a bite of everything, which makes people unhappy, but it is still a big mouthful. But it's not okay if you don't let the Internal Affairs Office bite this bite, people hold power.
Who came up with the business certificate, it's too bad and vicious.
If you can't get a business license, you are not allowed to do it, which is similar to the previous salt introduction, and if you do it, the crime will be big. can only beg the Ministry of Internal Affairs, let the Ministry of Internal Affairs take a bite, and even if you go to the lawsuit, you can't win the lawsuit.
Some time ago, the vigorous anti-internal affairs government, the impeachment twists and turns are about to drown the palace, what is the result?
Li Zhongxing doesn't care what others think, he is now looking forward to how to make money and how to complete the things explained by the emperor. Seeing that the people were almost there, Li Zhongxing deliberately glanced at the person below.
The man was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a thin build, a beard, and no expression on his face.
His name is Jin He, he is a native of Nanzhili, to be precise, a native of Songjiang, in the auction of the last place a few days ago, it was he who bought 370,000 taels of silver and auctioned the last place, which can be said to be menacing.
According to the investigation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Jin family is famous in Nanzhili, let alone in Songjiang.
The famous Songjiang cloth, seven out of ten achievements are from the Jin family, and the legend has something to do with the officialdom in Jiangnan. However, Li Zhongxing knew that this was not a legend, and if it didn't matter, the Jin family wouldn't dare to intervene here.
Li Zhongxing smiled and said, "Now that the people are here, let's talk about the land." ”
"As you know, this official received a piece of land from the governor's yamen for the purpose of building a textile factory."
"This is what the official wants to talk about today, these lands are there now, let's talk about it, whoever wants which piece is here." Following Li Zhongxing's words, a map was hung up behind him.
After measuring the land, Li Zhongxing divided the plot into ten pieces according to the different locations.
The ten people looked at the map, and then looked at Li Zhongxing, how could they not understand what Li Zhongxing meant, this was clearly to let them spend more money to buy land. It is simply impossible to get the land that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has to pay for the land that the Governor's Yamen has.
Obviously, this is a big pit, and look at these ten pieces of land, how big is this!
Li Zhongxing obviously didn't want to take out all the land he got from the governor's yamen to his own people, he wanted to keep some of it in his hands, and then wait for the price to be higher before selling. It's so bad that I don't know what to say.
It's a little cold for a while, and the appearance of the Internal Affairs Office is too ugly, right?
These people obviously haven't seen the sale of approval slips in later generations, otherwise they wouldn't think so.
However, Li Zhongxing also knew that he couldn't push them too hard, otherwise things would become very troublesome, so Li Zhongxing said with a smile: "After you buy these lands, each family can get 500 acres of 5,000 acres of barren mountains, and this is free of money." ”
"It is up to you to build a storehouse or a house for a craftsman, and you can't build a shop."
When everyone heard this, the expression on their faces was a little better, and it was about the same. After receiving this news, everyone turned their eyes from the ten fields to the new, and this look was different.
It is obvious on the map that there are docks and roads, so that the price of land next to the roads and docks is naturally better than in other places. Everyone wants a good piece of land, and no one wants a bad one.
What's more, the size of these lands is not the same, because these lands are not regular, and after they are divided, they are big and small.
Some are long, some are square, and everyone wants good terrain.
"Okay, after everyone is optimistic, let's start shooting the ground!" Li Zhongxing said with a smile: "Plot No. 1, the closest to the wharf, four hundred and thirty-six acres, the terrain is flat, the starting price is one hundred and twenty taels per mu, everyone can bid." ”
The Governor's Palace.
Zeng Xingwu has been very busy these days, and the Internal Affairs Office is a demon, and he has no mind and energy to take care of it. In the past few days, Zeng Xingwu has been busy with the trial of cases, and he has gone to several places to try cases.
Although the public trial conference is very troublesome, after gaining experience, it is much easier to do.
Sitting on the chair, Zeng Xingwu took a breath, the past two days have really exhausted him. However, Zhang Cheng and Ma Gui next to him didn't feel anything, and in comparison, Zeng Xingwu's health was the worst.
"Lord Zeng, the charges have been decided, the sentence is over, and the rest will be handed over to you."
Zhang Cheng looked at Zeng Xingwu and said.
Zeng Xingwu nodded: "Okay, this official will play the court as soon as possible, and when the palindrome of the court arrives, the head of the person who should be beheaded will be beheaded, and the army will be filled with the army." ”
"Lord Zeng, this time I have arrested so many people, although the morale of the army is still stable, but without so many generals, sooner or later there will be trouble." At this time, Ma Gui said on the side: "It's better to appoint generals as soon as possible!" ”
Compared with others, Ma Gui is most worried about this matter, and a little carelessness will cause problems.
Zeng Xingwu glanced at Ma Lu, in fact, at this time, it was not suitable to hide Ma Lu, after a moment of silence, Zeng Xingwu slowly said: "General Ma, what this official is going to say next, out of this room, you can't mention it to others." ”
Ma Lu was stunned for a moment, didn't he just say that he was appointing generals, why did he suddenly make it so serious?
However, seeing Zeng Shengwu's expression, Ma Lu hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, my lord!" ”
Nodding, Zeng Xingwu said slowly: "In fact, this official came to Xuanda this time with the emperor's order. The imperial court was ready to abolish the cantonment system and change the guard to recruit soldiers, and the first place to reform the system was Datong. ”
"The imperial court will not appoint new officers, and even if they are appointed, they will be after the reform."
Ma Lu listened to Zeng Xingwu's words, and was stunned for a moment, restructuring? Abolish the military household system and directly change it to a conscription system?
As for the matter of the conscription system and the military household system, of course Ma Lu knows it, and he knows it very well. He also knew that the court had been arguing about this matter, but the most intense time of the quarrel had long passed, because the court had no money.
Not to mention the conscription system, the imperial court did not have the money to issue silver to the guards.
The current recruits can't get their salaries a lot of the time, and someone has already written to dismiss them, but now it's the other way around, and they want to abolish the guards and change to a conscription system, and Ma Lu knows that the matter is big.
Looking at Zhang Cheng, who was with the old god on the side, Ma Lu finally understood why this time the purge was.
It looks like these people are committing crimes, but they are all preparing for recruitment. Recruitment can only proceed if these moths are removed. Otherwise, once the recruitment is adopted, these people will inevitably make a fuss.
Seeing that Ma Lu was silent and did not speak, Zeng Xingwu looked at Ma Lu and said, "Mr. Ma, do you have anything to say?" ”
Ma Lu hurriedly raised his head: "Lord Hui, there will be no general, the court will do whatever you want!" ”
At this time, Ma Lu also reacted, he couldn't let people misunderstand his opposition to the conscription system, especially in this case.
Hearing what Ma Lu said, Zeng Xingwu nodded: "That's good, General Ma, what you have to do is to stabilize the morale of the army, and when the documents of the imperial court arrive, this matter will begin, do it well, and then the official will ask for credit to the imperial court for you." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, the last general will understand!" Ma Lu agreed and spoke.
When Ma Lu and Zhang Cheng left, Zeng Xingwu sighed, his big thing was coming.
Two days later, the palindrome from the capital arrived, both addressed to the governor's yamen. One was a palindrome about the sale of land, and the court agreed. The second is a decree on abolishing the military household system and changing the guard office to a conscription system.
The first message is for merchants, and the latter is for military towns. Originally, the news in front could scare many people, but the appearance of the news in the back overshadowed the news in front.
