Chapter 582: Money and Butcher's Knife

"After this period of contact, everyone should understand the rules of our Youzhou officialdom, in general, my Youzhou officialdom is the officialdom of carrots and sticks butcher knives." In the face of the demoted officials below, when he said this, Lu Peng did not have the same high-sounding things as possible like those scholars, tried to say things as implicitly as possible, and tried to make everyone acceptable. But Lu Peng said that this matter was very secondary. And this kind of sub-fruit fruit in his mouth is so light and light, so open and natural.

"Carrots, that is, according to the rules of our court officials, everyone has a salary, of course, we have all the money here, including the money of your subordinates, you don't have to work hard to collect it from the people in person, you just need to do your own thing, you and your money will be distributed on time by the Youzhou Household Department."

This rule is clear, and there is still a whisper underneath.

Lu Peng stopped his words with slanted eyes, took a sip of tea from the teacup, moistened his throat, waited for everyone to finish talking, and then continued again.

The overall planning of wages, which was self-financed by the Han Dynasty and turned to the unified payment by the treasury, was another great progress of the times.

The disadvantages of self-financing and self-support are huge, and it will make people who do things with peace of mind have to worry about salary expenses, which is very energy-intensive. It will also give people with ulterior motives a legal cloak of exploiting the people and setting up a name, which is a disadvantage. Now, Lu Peng wants to nip all the drawbacks in the bud, since he is an emerging force, then all the obsolete things will be eliminated in the bud, and truly be a brand-new force with infinite vitality and development.

For Lu Peng's method, the following people who are accustomed to the Han court's legal greed and exploitation of their officials, some of them vomit bitterness, and some of them are relaxed.

In this era, all people, especially those who rely on themselves as aristocrats, have no carriages, enter no Huatang, eat no delicacies, sleep without beauties, or eat abalone and fight for wealth, is life still called life?

If you count on the little money set by the imperial court, let alone such a life, even if the life is difficult to maintain, then how can everyone maintain the dignity of the nobility? How else can the superiority of the nobility be shown?

Seeing that the voices below were getting louder and louder, Lu Peng had to knock on the table with the startling wood in his hand: "I will give everyone a chance to discuss, but not now, you still have to listen to me now." ”

After the voices below calmed down, as the food and clothing parents of all officials, Mi Zhu of the household department came to power happily and began to announce the benefits of officials at all levels.

The welfare of officials in Youzhou is simply outrageous, in addition to the normal officials at all levels according to the provisions of the Han Dynasty, there is also a sum of money twice as high as the maintenance money, of course, this money is not allocated by the Ministry of Households, but by the government to invest in the profits of the shares of the factory, so this money is up and down, but according to the current development of the entire market, this money can only float upward, and definitely not downward.

If a person can earn more than three wages, it is not a good day for a well-off, but a day of great prosperity, and a day when the whole family is well-off.

In fact, what is well-off, what is Dakang, of course everyone doesn't understand, in fact, Lu Peng doesn't understand either, anyway, it's just a slogan, a slogan, then shout with the earth-shattering sound of the cloud and mountain fog cover.

The result is not over, Mi Zhu and his fingers are counted with everyone all kinds of benefits, there are annual examples for the New Year, red envelopes for various festivals, charcoal money in winter, ice money in summer, wine money in spring, fruit money in autumn, office office money, commuting car and horse money, and fixed money for entertaining guests every month, of course, you can spend this money, or you can not spend it stingily, anyway, there is a hospitality fee allocated according to the level, you are willing to spend it or not, you spend more and you pay it out of your own pocket, and the balance is even if it is in your pocket.

Oh yes, due to the vast territory and more and more officials, in order to facilitate everyone to see at a glance who is the official and who is the people, Lu Peng decided to abolish the original Han only tied a ribbon around the waist as a symbol, and prepared to implement a unified work uniform system throughout Youzhou at the beginning of the year, that is, every official will get four work clothes in spring, summer, autumn and winter every year.

In the end, Mi Zhu stood on the stage, calculated and calculated, and counted himself as confused, so he could only knock on the table and concluded: "For example, I finally got five times the amount of money I officially paid. ”

There was a burst of foaming and spitting in the audience, snorting and snorting, oh my God, what kind of generous reward this is, this is simply a lucrative reward that makes people crazy.

So Lu Peng concluded: "Therefore, I use the most generous money to support the officials, so that you can be honest, and do things for the people instead of exploiting the people." Here you have a choice, whether you are ready to give up this bounty and embezzle the very dangerous, dirty money, or enjoy the insane benefits with peace of mind, and this choice is up to you. Then he solemnly introduced to these officials: "With good welfare, we need everyone to be honest and treat the people well." If anyone is still greedy enough to stretch out his filthy claws to the people, then I will not only chop off his paws, but also his head, and at the same time I will not spare their property, I will never let me die, and the situation of the happy whole family will appear in my place, and I will let you die, and your whole family will continue to suffer in this world to pay for your sins. ”

When he said this, Lu Peng was talking about murderous spirits and gritting his teeth.

After listening attentively again, Lu Peng began to solemnly state his supervision mechanism for officials. So, Xu Jie, who was the first to come forward to explain the functions of the entire Jinyiwei, came up, his face was pale, like the white impermanence in hell, drooping his eyelids, his face was expressionless, and he said the things he was responsible for in Jinyiwei without any expression.

Then, in order to deepen everyone's impression, Xu Jie also gave a few vivid examples here, such as a certain person who wanted to rebel, but after telling his concubine about it at night, the next day, Jin Yiwei recorded what they said word for word, and in order to make this official feel that this is indeed a, a real confession, and specially added one, physical evidence - his concubine's underwear.

For example, a person is also afraid that after being caught for corruption, the family property will not make his family suffer, so he buried a large amount of illegal income in various places, and as a result, the East Window incident, this guy should be beheaded according to the crime, and the family property was confiscated according to the rules, but because this guy buried a lot of money, he was still proud, thinking of sacrificing me and making the whole family happy, no, it was three generations of the happy family.

As a result, on the day of the execution, Jin Yiwei buried boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as a large number of steel coins, all of them, and then put them in front of him for checking.

It turned out that in only half an hour, it was found in a mouse hole, because the mouse looked at the bright and dazzling steel coins, and felt amused, and moved to its house.

Then Xu Jie also calmly introduced to everyone the recent situation of the family of the prisoner, because of corruption and mistreatment of the people, no one accepted them to work, and became beggars, but according to the rules of Youzhou, those who are strong and have sound limbs cannot beg, so they were forcibly escorted to the Savage Valley mine to dig stones, and the woman could not live, so she had to enter the prostitution and become a prostitute. However, because everyone hates corrupt officials, they all want to ride the old lady and daughter of a corrupt official to vent their anger, but the business is booming. Xu Jie also took great pains to recommend their addresses to the demoted officials below and solicited business for them.

Just this vivid introduction, it simply made those guys who were still a little careful feel the sweat hair stand on end, and involuntarily urinate, please if the toilet is one after another.

After Xu Jie made a serious report, the secretary of the Criminal Department reviewed the matching, strode onto the rostrum, and solemnly introduced the functions of his Criminal Department.

In fact, he doesn't need to say what the Criminal Department does anymore, because the people who are here, including the trial, are all the former Yuan Shao's colleagues, and these people know the character of the trial, and at this time he is in control of the Youzhou Prison, and everyone knows that he will be sad in the future.

Then Xi Zhen stepped forward to say the truth, so that the punishment received after the mountain thinking of the little warlord that he almost got out at the beginning was said in one hundred and fifty ten, and what he said was words of blood and tears, unforgettable, and the people below him were pale and drenched in cold sweat.

Gui is the first cronie of Lin Pan, made a mistake that seems to be not a mistake in this era, and as a result, he was punished so severely, not only from the captain directly demoted to a small soldier, but also hit three hundred whips, one time can not finish the next beating, Xi Zhen, who beat directly, did not lie down and sleep for two years, in order to prove that what he said was true, he also deliberately stripped naked in front of everyone, showing everyone the terrifying whip marks behind him. Such cruel methods are simply not drenched in cold sweat, they are simply cruel and outrageous.

Now it seems that this piece of high-welfare scenery and decent Yulu is not so delicious.

In the end, Wu Tao, the secretary of the ministry, stood up and began to show the officials the way - everyone should not expect to be an official to make a fortune, the lord benevolence has prepared a lot of money for everyone, a large area of grassland land, everyone still takes the rich money given by the lord, and the considerable amount of land on the grassland, and be a prince of a place. When it comes to your own one-acre and three-point land, as long as you pay a pitiful ten catties of grain to the Youzhou household department every year, as long as you don't shout out the rebellion against Youzhou without fanfare, as long as you don't kill the slaves and herdsmen under your command for no reason, of course, except for those Tartars, you can govern your land how you like, and you are willing to plant beans, melons, horses, or five acres of rape flowers, it's all up to you.

There is no risk in making a fortune, and the children and grandchildren will prolong their lives together, and in the end, Wu Tao said this sentence that can only be said by supporters, expressing what a good prospect this is.

Of course, Wu Tao didn't forget to give everyone a little reminder - in that grassland, once you have a talented descendant in the future, maybe you can also create a 10,000-year foundation, but the premise is still that sentence, you don't rebel, Han? You pay tribute and pay grain every year, what do I call you yourself? The prince and uncle, even the prince, even what? You can do whatever you love.

This agitation has simply provoked everyone's ambitions, yes, the Han Dynasty has never classified that territory into the territory of the Han Dynasty, so that place, in the habit, no longer abide by the rules of the Central Plains, so, as long as you follow the path drawn by Lu Peng, you can do what you like, if you really make a great cause and become a generation of founding kings, it is a hundred times stronger than trembling and kowtowing to others to be an official.

More than 500 civil officials, including more than 400 people, chose to go to the grassland to be Robinson, ready to start from scratch with their children and grandchildren, and finally achieve an imperial foundation.

Of course, there are also those who can calculate, first resign here, get the generous compensation promised by Lu Peng, and the grassland that makes the children and grandchildren worry-free, and then recommend themselves to be officials in other places, anyway, education in this era is a patent controlled by the family, and people who are literate are rare, as long as they are literate, they can mix a bowl of rice with any prince.

Of course, Lu Peng didn't take it to heart about such a person at all, the benefits were still issued, and the land was given, just as he bought a foreshadowing favor when he killed them in the future, after all, they knew their own arrangements, maybe they would sell that master to themselves in order to be able to "cheat" a generous welfare and a vast piece of land from their own hands.

The remaining hundred or so people, of course, have their own thoughts, among which Lu Peng found that Wu Qiang willingly stayed, according to his level, according to Lu Peng's rules this time, it will become the Taishou of Guangping County.

Seeing such a result, Lu Peng could only whisper in Xu Jie's ear: "This is really what should be gone, what shouldn't be gone, now you have to keep an eye on this Wu Qiang for me, I don't think he is a good cake, don't spoil my good soup in the future." ”

Xu Jie was expressionless and noncommittal.

The arrangement of the generals is much easier, there are many people who are echoing the voice, if you can get a settlement fee, who is willing to carry their heads to sell their lives? And there are some ambitious ones, Lu Peng sent them to the Savage Valley, returned to the furnace for training, and then assigned them to his own armies at all levels to be promoted to a general colonel, so that they can accumulate military merits little by little and realize their ambitions of being a marquis.

Lu Peng is not afraid of them rebelling with the army at all, because Lu Peng's army is different from other warlords, Lu Peng's army is uniformly trained and educated, and there is no such concept as private soldiers, now you don't say that you are an outsider who wants to lead them to rebel, it is estimated that even the fourth general wants to take his 50,000 cavalry to rebel against Lu Peng, maybe in the blink of an eye, he will become a bare-bones commander.
