Chapter 20 Talent and Development (4)

"Lord Tobe Zhu, do you think Lord Han and Lord Zhao's method will work?" Zhu Youxiao turned his head and asked Zhu Guozuo, the head of the household.

"Absolutely not. The addition of summer and autumn taxes will inevitably cause unrest in the country, and I ask Your Majesty that they must not be levied. Last year, there was a severe drought in Shaanxi and Gansu, and grain production was reduced, so disaster relief was needed. The locust plague in Henan and Shandong needs to be reduced. Zhu Guozuo replied without hesitation.

"Lord Han, how many sons-in-law and concubines do you have?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has two sons-in-law and one concubine. Ignorance...... Han Yi asked hesitantly.

"I ask you, how are you going to divide the family property after a hundred years, the two sisters-in-law will be divided in half, and the concubines will be divided in half?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Nope." Han Yi said directly.

"So, if you are old, do you need your concubine to be filial to you? Do you need him to be filial? Zhu Youxiao then asked.

"That is necessary, every son must be filial, it is the virtue of our nation." Han Yi replied.

"Our Ming Dynasty is based on agriculture, the summer tax and the autumn tax are my two sons, and the mine tax is also my son, and they are concubines, they are all cared for by the Ming Dynasty and enjoy the same blessings, why is the country, that is, their parents in trouble, he can not be filial?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

For such a debate, not to mention Han Yi, even those arrogant officials are not as good as Zhu Youxiao, the debates of later generations are gone, even if Zhu Youxiao has not participated, he has seen a lot, what is the concept of stealing, paradoxes and other debate skills are very familiar, seeing that the opponents are no longer able to refute, Zhu Youxiao knows that this matter has succeeded.

"Zuo Guangdou, I have awarded you the title of Director of the Tax Department of the Ministry of Households, awarded the title of three ranks, and reorganized the Tax Department on behalf of me, which is divided into mineral tax and commercial tax, and the mineral tax is only levied on those who excavate mines and smelt ores. The commercial tax is 30 taxes per one, which is reported by the businessman, and the penalty for tax evasion is doubled, and the meritorious name is removed, and these two taxes belong to the household department. Are you willing to contribute to the country? Zhu Youxiao stared at Zuo Guangdou and asked.

"Minister, Zuo Guangdou obeys the holy decree!" Zuo Guangdou did not hesitate.

There was no opposition above the main hall, so the sign of "Daming Royal Trading Company" was hung up outside the front gate of Beijing, and Niu Jinxing, a young man, took office.

The official school of the Ming Dynasty officially opened, the school site is next to the official department, the word hanging on the top is Zhu Youxiao asked Sun Chengzong to write "Ming official school", the school according to Zhu Youxiao's idea according to the modern school management method, every six people live in a dormitory, with a public canteen, these more than 400 people in addition to more than half of the more than 30 years old more than 200 people, there are 200 people organized into four classes, each class of 50 people, every day to participate in military training, the content of the training is running, fighting, queue, shooting. And those over thirty years old are organized into four classes, they can only run four miles every morning, Zhu Youxiao means to exercise their bodies, so that they can develop good living habits in the future.

This time, the champion is still the same as in history, but only a year in advance, the champion is Wen Zhenmeng, although Wen Zhenmeng is nearly fifty years old, but his health is okay, and the article is also very good, Sun Ruyou, who presided over the exam, ignored Zhu Youxiao's suggestion and insisted on choosing. The name of the list is Fu Guan, this person is only twenty-seven years old, he is a good object to cultivate, and this person is simple. Tanhua Chen Renxi, a good person, answered correctly and decently. Zhu Youxiao didn't pay much attention to these false names, combined with the comments of Sun Ruyou and Zhou Jiamo, he casually ordered these three people. Zhu Youxiao values the young talents behind him more, such as Lu Xiangsheng, Ni Yunlu, Jiang Dejing, Zhu Shen and other people who are only in their twenties, and this time the squad leader has set Lu Xiangsheng, Fu Guan, Ni Yunlu, and Jiang Dejing, which will be Zhu Youxiao's hardcore people in the future.

The opening ceremony officially began, and the new Jinshi and Junshi all sat on the newly built playground, waiting for the arrival of the Emperor of the Apocalypse. Because everyone has heard of Zhu Youxiao's "Edict of Chengtianmen", the Jinshi and Junshi, who are more important than those scholars, are now looking forward to the heavier grace of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Slowly walked up to the podium, accompanied by Zhou Jiamo, the secretary of the ministry, and just sat on the chair, Zhou Jiamo shouted: "The emperor has arrived." ”

Everyone below: "Meet Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" Hooray! ”

"I, the great son of tomorrow, Zhu Youxiao." Zhu Youxiao said, "In the future, I will be the principal of the 'Daming Official School', and when you see me in the future, as long as you are not in the Taiji Palace, you only call the principal, and bow to the principal, so as not to restrain our speech."

Zi said: For politics and morality, such as Beichen, live in its place and all the stars are together. Everyone will be officials of the Ming Dynasty in the future, as an official, what is the most important thing? I think that not only to have virtue, but also to have the ability, this is what we need officials with both ability and political integrity, virtue can only ensure that you do not make mistakes, talent can ensure that your subordinates do not make mistakes, in order to ensure that you contribute to the common people and the Ming Dynasty. Virtue is only the basic bottom line of your official life, and talent is the basic foundation of your official life, everyone may have encountered or heard of unjust prisons, in fact, sometimes the prison breakers themselves are not at fault, and their morals are also very noble, but their ability is not good, which causes unjust cases.

"Also, for example, the enemy army is attacking the city, you only have virtue, and the people are willing to help you defend the city, but because of your limited ability and command errors, the city is lost, even if you are martyred for this, but for the loss of the country, what is the meaning of the lives of the people, the lost city can be recaptured, what to do with the lost lives?

This requires everyone to continue to learn and think. Learn not only from teachers, but also from colleagues, subordinates, and even our enemies.

"Now that corrupt officials are everywhere, officials protect each other, and officials and rich people collude to oppress the people, what should we do, we can't kill all these people at once. My current idea is to replace them in batches and pay a high salary. First of all, those of you over the age of 30 here today will go through half a year of training, mainly ability training, and then you will take over a county government office in a group of four, and according to the results of your training, you will be awarded the county order, the county commander, the lord of the book, and the canonical history, you are all my students, do not disappoint my hopes, manage the people well, develop the economy well, and make sure that the people have little support and the old have some trust. For those under the age of 30, they are trained for two years and then appointed separately according to their talents. When you first take office, you may encounter exclusion or persecution from the old bureaucrats because your actions have harmed their interests. In this regard, I also make a promise, as long as you sit upright, I will make decisions for you.

Finally, I wish everyone to study hard here, strive for good results, and contribute to the country and the people. ”

After explaining and comforting these future elites, Zhu Youxiao left the Daming Official School.

Zhu Youxiao knows that the Western countries have begun to establish a modern banking system, and that it is far from enough to have a money bank, and the development of the modern capitalist economy is based on the developed modern banks, and the development of mines and factories are all based on bank loans represented by capital agglomeration. "Capital" is the basis of the economy.
