"The matter of education is indeed urgent...... Not only education, but also governance...... For a long time, especially Fan Xianggong presided over the Ministry of Officials, advocating the use of clean officials and the use of officials. I'm not saying that Fan Xianggong is at fault, it's really that the world is changing too fast, blindly not greedy and not occupying, and doing things honestly, but I don't know that looking up at the changes in the world will be a big deal! ”

Wang Pu hit the nail on the head and said: "During the few years that the old man was in Hedong, he had a deep experience, for example, after some people took office, they only knew how to blindly whitewash the peace and not do practical things. No roads, no education, no encouragement of industry and commerce, and no care for the people. Conservative and insensitive. Such an official, it's better not to! ”

"Some of them have learned the way of Confucius and Mencius, and they can't change it, and some of them are afraid of making a lot of mistakes, so they simply become wood carving clay sculptures, without saying a word, thinking that in this way, they can follow the steps and keep rising to the ranks! Maybe it used to be, but when the old man sat in this position, he categorically wouldn't indulge these people! ”

"Two, those old decays of the corpse and vegetarian meal, all replaced, as for those who still have the heart to do things, but don't know how to do things...... Hire someone to train them! ”

Speaking of this, Wang Pu glanced at Li Shi, "Li Xianggong, what do you think officials have to learn?" ”

Suddenly called Xianggong, Li Shi was still a little uncomfortable, he paused for a moment, and immediately said: "The first is of course to be upright, in the past, we often said that serving as an official will benefit one party, but where is the standard?" What does it mean to be a blessing? If there is no proper evaluation standard, it becomes an empty and useless sentence. I think the key to the so-called benefit of the party is to enrich the people and make the lives of all the people progress......"

Li Shi said, took out a set of proposed standards, and showed Wang Pu.

Wang Pu took a quick look and said happily: "Yes, what Li Xianggong said is deeply in line with the old man's meaning!" ”

"Actually, that's not what I meant." Li Xian said: "This is the proposition of Wang Pu and Wang Xianggong. He has been sorting out the Confucian classics all these years, hoping to complete a new set of studies and achieve the goal of renovating Confucianism...... It's a pity that the prince is ...... Alas! Li Xian said: "I have now taken over the National History Museum, and my idea is to continue to sort out this set of things, and we want to make it clear to officials why they are officials and what they have to do when they become officials...... All officials, not after entering the office, can throw the books aside and enjoy them with peace of mind! The way of Confucius and Mencius cannot become a stepping stone for them to seek wealth! Officials must continue to study, constantly increase their skills, be worthy of the official uniform on their bodies, and be worthy of the people's support! ”

"Well said!"

Wang Pu said happily: "This is what the old man means, righteous people's hearts, new learning, all schools must have the task of training officials...... It is necessary for officials to understand the economy and people's livelihood, civil engineering, farmland and water conservancy, and they are not required to do it, but at least they must understand it...... Also, in terms of budget, it must be strictly managed, and it can't be wasted as before. The old man will go and talk to Li Yu about this! ”

……

Wang Pu's style of acting can be called four words: vigorous and resolute!

This is also related to his experience in Hedong, Wang Pu is extremely intelligent, no worse than Wei Renpu, he is upright, accepted Ye Hua's suggestion, and summed up a set of his own things in Hedong's continuous practice.

When he exerted his fists and kicks and made a bold move, the court and the whole hall were shocked!

Even Ye Hua couldn't help but marvel, Da Zhou got along!

With a capable prime minister, even Ye Hua's task is much lighter.

He is mainly responsible for the financial part, which is nothing more than the two most important things, one is to collect the money, and the other is to spend the money......

In response to the original problem of tax evasion, Ye Hua decided to grasp the big and let go of the small and implement the value-added tax ...... In a certain mountain village, there is a blacksmith shop that sells twenty sickles and five shovels every year...... There is no need to levy taxes in a small workshop like this, and the taxes collected are not enough to pay the small officials!

So Ye Hua set his sights on those big factories and workshops...... Coal mines in Hedong, ironmaking in Youzhou, textiles and shipbuilding in Jiangnan, overseas trade in Lingnan, the Silk Road in Chang'an, and financial markets in Beijing...... This is the direction that Ye Hua is staring at.

Of course, there is a hundred secrets, not to mention that Ye Hua's tax network is not dense, and many commercial houses and workshops can still find ways to escape taxes.

Ye Hua sacrificed the second magic weapon...... Vat!

In any case, bulk commodities must be sold in the market, and if the raw materials in front of them are not taxed, they must be paid in one lump sum when they are sold.

This is a heavy tax that no businessman can afford...... Therefore, among the merchants, supervision and restraint have been formed...... Of course, is this the solution a complete solution? That's absolutely impossible.

Not to mention the management level of Da Zhou, even in the Internet era, there are still so many tax evasion phenomena that cannot be caught.

What Ye Hua can do is to increase taxes as much as possible, and what should be collected must be collected!

Next is the expense part, which is also the worst thing Seo Hyun has done...... Nominally, the imperial court needed to bid for goods from merchants, but as a result, the household department colluded with merchants and used black-box operations to hand over the benefits to specific merchants.

In response to the shortcomings, Ye Hua requires that all purchases, more than 100 times, must be made public...... And how much is spent every year, how many things are done, must be handed over to the audit temple for inspection, and if there is a problem, the corresponding officials will be responsible!

Don't think you can escape the eyes of the world, during the Qin Dynasty, weapon parts could be traced to who the manufacturing craftsman was, and every money spent by the treasury could not be traced, depending on whether it was serious or not.

Moreover, Ye Hua also demanded that every purchase should be publicized through the newspaper and subject to everyone's supervision to avoid black-box operations.

Wang Pu is reshaping the bureaucratic system of the Great Zhou, Li Shi is reshaping the education system, Ye Hua is reshaping the fiscal, taxation and financial system, and Li Yu is doing the audit and supervision system...... Four aspects, together to start, soon saw results.

Chai Rong is undoubtedly lucky, he has too many capable ministers, these people may not be perfect, but they can complete the mission given by the emperor according to the requirements, or even exceed the quota.

Take Li Yu as an example, when the imperial court debt crisis was resolved, he immediately made Xu Xuan's charges public...... It seems that many corrupt officials have special hobbies.

Xu Xuan likes incense and is also a master of incense making.

Especially after Kaifeng became an official, every moonlit night, he sat in the atrium, burned a stick of incense, and accompanied the moon, and he called the incense he made "with the moon".

This moon incense is very precious, and the materials are exquisite.

It must be made of the best sandalwood, guanxiang, Suhexiang, chicken tongue, cardamom, rue, white grass and so on.

The compatibility of moon incense is rigorous, and more attention is paid to the preparation and harmony of incense. Its aroma and fragrance are quiet and elegant, the fragrance is far away, the fragrance is long-lasting, and the cost of a stick with the moon fragrance will be hundreds of runs...... The surname Xu is not lighting incense at all, but burning money!

It's just that Xu Xuan has a different opinion about his hobbies.

"The servant just loves incense and makes incense, compared to many people, the old man is honest and self-controlled, for decades, everyone knows it!"

It's good that he didn't mention it, but when he said this, he found that Li Yu's eyes were red!

"Shameless!"

Li Yu smacked him hard, "Old puppet, you are greedy for ink and mislead the country, and it is because of the corruption and incompetence of hundreds of officials and the corruption of officialdom that the Southern Tang Dynasty ended up ruining the country and ruining the family...... The Holy Son of Heaven gave you the opportunity to let you continue to be officials, but you didn't want to, and you didn't want to repent, but instead intensified and corrupted the rule of the Great Zhou officials. In such a courtier, only by bringing two sins into one can the people's hearts and the law of the country be righteous! ”

Xu Xuan is in Jiangnan, he is indeed a Qing official, a direct minister, and has a good reputation...... It's just that now it seems that it's not how good he is, but the foil of his colleagues!

There's no way, the officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty are too bad.

Li Yu is now a courtier of the Great Zhou, and his special experience has made him more and more aware that the government is not clear, and the country is ruined!

For corrupt officials and corrupt officials, there is only one word: kill!

Seo Hyun, kill and decide!

The household department, the degree branch, and the officials who were implicated in the bribery case, arrested more than 30 people in one go!

And in the process of the inventory, Li Yu made an unexpected discovery!

"Your Majesty, the front is it!"

Li Yu led the way and asked Chai Rong to personally go to a manor outside the city, and the three prime ministers followed, this manor was very well located, not far from Ye Hua's manor.

Outwardly, nothing remarkable, just ordinary.

But after entering, there is no cave.

The interior is lavishly decorated and all good stuff.

"Your Majesty, do you think there's anything wrong with the room?"

Chai Rong looked around and suddenly said, "It seems that the house is a little small!" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Li Yu turned around and pushed open a bookcase, behind the bookcase, the golden light was shining, and the yards were all layers of gold bars!

"Ahh

Chai Rong was shocked, "How can there be so many?" ”

Li Xi turned to a house in the back again, and took off a floor tile, revealing a hole in the black hole, and the same was true in the secret room, with a lot of gold and silver!

With such a scale of gold and silver, Chai Rong has only seen it in one person's house, and that is Li Gu!

At the beginning, the small courtyard in Li Gu was plain on the surface, but there was also a hole in it.

It's just that Li Gu is a dignified prime minister, he can be greedy for ink so much, it's not surprising at all, who is this manor now? It's still built next to Ye Hua's manor, so it won't have anything to do with Ye Hua, right?

Li Shi secretly stabbed Ye Hua, "Senior brother, this is your little vault?" There's a lot of money in the private house, huh? ”

Ye Hua glared at him fiercely, "If you can't speak, just close your mouth, it has nothing to do with me!" ”

At this time, Li Yu smiled, "Master Hou, don't say it, it has something to do with you, this person put the manor near the Ye family's manor just to avoid people's eyes...... Speaking of which, he is not a big official, but a subordinate of the household department, one of the four deputy directors of the warehouse department! ”

"What? Just a deputy director of the warehouse department, can be greedy so much? Chai Rong kept shaking his head, from the head of the household, to the head of the household, Lang Zhong, the outside of the staff, the director, the deputy director...... How many levels is this? Where did he get the ability to be greedy for so much ink?

Li Yu gave Chai Rong the best explanation in one sentence, "Your Majesty, this person is responsible for the acceptance of all the military rations purchased!" ”
