After ordering in the morning, Li Buqi did not ask everyone to do their own errands as usual, but called all the secretaries and craftsmen. In front of everyone, he first ordered the chief in charge of the accounts and the public officials to make public the accounts of the minister's money from now on, and today he first announced the amount of the minister's money.

Now all the officials are stupid - this Judge Li really wants to be a clean official, but poor them, these people can't get oil and water from the minister's money.

But then Li Buqi announced the use of the minister's money, in addition to the indispensable purpose of ushering in the food of the officials, but also to subsidize the public officials who did not have a salary, the life of the errand servants, and the reward and punishment of laziness. This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief: it turned out that this Shangguan did not want to spend the minister's money, but to spend the minister's money in a clear place, and everyone still had equal interests. On the contrary, some public officials and clerks who usually receive the least benefit from the minister's money are more supportive of this.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Li Buqi announced that the ordnance workshop began to implement the laws of Taizu and Taizong sorted out by Cheng Jun. In the future, the production in the workshop should be planned, everything should be carried out in accordance with the law, and the first-in-command responsibility system should be implemented. At the same time, personnel adjustments were announced, with some public officials and craftsmen as the leaders of the workshop, and a planning and scheduling department was also set up to assign Cheng Jun to be responsible for the formulation of monthly production plans and manpower transfer.

A civil official asked: "Judge Li, according to what you said, the Planning and Dispatch Department is the center of the ordnance workshop, but I'm afraid that Cheng Duguan may not be able to take this responsibility." ”

Alas, these civil officials still look down on the little officials. Li Buqi glanced at him: "In the final analysis, planning and scheduling is still the authority of the official, and the minister of planning and scheduling is only assisting the official, and Cheng Duguan is competent enough." ”

No one is talking about it now. Li Buqi also announced that the bow and crossbow workshop would be used as a pilot, and the craftsmen of the royal test site would be transferred to demonstrate, and assembly lines and standardized production should be implemented, and the inspection system should be strictly enforced.

After saying that, Li Buqi ordered the secretary office to copy the Taizu Taizong system and the implementation measures written by himself and post them in various workshops, and asked officials at all levels to preach in detail to the craftsmen.

In fact, Li Buqi, who has been implementing the Taizu Taizong system and assembly lines and standardized production for a month, has been blowing the wind for a month, and has also discussed with officials and craftsmen many times. At this time, Li Buqi took out another tie: "In the past, if there were any problems in the workshops, everyone was sure to know what was going on, and whether the money spent could be saved, everyone must be clear." Yesterday I wrote a tie, please allocate five-sixths of each product last month, spend more money, everyone compensates, and the money spent is saved, as a reward for everyone. There are benefits, there are risks, and are there any objections? ”

Hearing this, several civil officials couldn't help but be confused, but the eyes of several principals and public officials who had been in the workshop for many years and who spoke effectively were obviously shining, and they all shouted for support. They all know that the cat in the workshop is tired, and they have Cheng Junlu's tone, and they already understand that this matter is profitable, so they naturally support it. When the public officials and clerks who did not know what was going on saw that they all supported it, they did not oppose it.

Several officials who didn't know anything about the workshop were afraid that they would be pitted by Li Buqi, and they were very opposed, but they originally wanted the officials to rush to the front to complain, but now they saw that the officials did not oppose it, but supported Li Buqi, so they had to stand up themselves. "Judge Li, is this matter too rash?"

Li Buqi said generously: "If you think it is not suitable, as long as you sign and draw a pledge, you can not participate in this matter." I will write in the tie that if you lose money, you don't want to make up for it, but if you save money, there will be no reward for you. ”

In the end, these people really wrote a statement that they disagreed with Li Buqi's opinion, and signed it. Li Buqi immediately added two sentences behind the tie, and then said: "Everyone understands and will go back on an errand." In the afternoon, I will also check the work. ”

Since Li Buqi, an expert, came to the case, from the principal to the craftsman, he obviously felt that he couldn't make a living. In the past, even if those officials stared at them, they still dared to fool them, but no one dared to abandon Li Buqi, this is the difference between knowing and not knowing, so when Li Buqi met the inspection work, it was Alexander. Hearing that Li Buqi was going to conduct a spot check in the afternoon, they hurriedly went to do their own errands, for fear that something would go wrong.

When everyone dispersed, Li Buqi asked Liu Xiang, the deputy envoy of salt and iron, who happened to be in the office of the Third Division today, and personally asked to see Liu Xiang and handed over the book. After looking at it, Liu Xiang groaned for a while and said: "Your strict system and what assembly line and standardization, this official supports." However, the distribution of the remaining money to the officials and craftsmen was not in accordance with the law. ”

Li Buqi just said: "But the lower officials think that only in this way can they save money for the imperial court as soon as possible, and one province is tens of thousands of guan." If this first step is completed, the cost of the product can be reduced again, and it is not a problem to save millions a year. ”

"Millions?" This number made Liu Xiang's mood feel like he couldn't go up or down.

Save millions a year, this is a great credit! Although this is the credit of Li Buqi, as his top boss, he must share a part of the profits, and he can't run away from the excellent performance evaluation. And has Li Buqi's plan been approved by the emperor? He couldn't afford to worry about it. If the emperor knew that he had delayed his plan to save money for the imperial court, he was afraid that he would lose a lot of points in the emperor's heart, which would have an impact on his future career.

But if he agrees to Li Buqi's plan, he will have to take responsibility, and maybe someone with no brains will impeach himself and Li Buqi for colluding in corrupting the law and committing fraud for personal gain.

He couldn't make a decision in his heart for a while, so he could only use the procrastination trick and wave his hand: "The old man has to think about this matter again, and you go back to listen to my news." ”

Li Buqi did not leave immediately like others, but asked: "This matter should not be delayed for a long time, I don't know when the deputy envoy will be able to decide?" ”

Liu Xiang said impatiently: "Tomorrow." ”

Li Buqi said: "Okay, the lower officials will come again tomorrow to ask for instructions." ”

After Li Buqi withdrew, Liu Xiang couldn't help but hesitate. He has no doubt that Li Buqi will reduce the cost of the weapons workshop by one-sixth and make money, because Li Buqi, who has a bit of a reputation for turning stone into gold, will never smash his own brand, so on the one hand, it is a temptation of great merit, and on the other hand, it is the possibility of impeachment for the imperial history, which is not easy to decide.

When he was hesitating, an errand officer outside called softly: "Deputy Envoy Liu, the little one has an urgent report." ”

He heard that it was one of his henchmen who had been sent to investigate the news of the case, and hurriedly called in. After listening to the man's report, Liu Xiang took a breath of cold air: You are ruthless, you dare to publish the minister's money account!

This is a great disapproval of the world, only the official family will like it, and the people who are officials have to hate Li to death. However, it is difficult to catch Li Buqi's pigtails from the minister's money now, so now the only major crime that can bring down Li Buqi is "colluding with petty officials to embezzle and misappropriate materials". However, although the matter of the small officials has been arranged to investigate, there is no clear result, and Liu Xiang does not dare to guarantee that this matter will be confirmed 100%. So it's always good for Li not to give up one more crime.

Thinking of this, he finally made up his mind, Li Buqi, didn't you clear up the matter of the minister's money, but as long as you send money to the person who was involved in the case, you will have a handle to arrest. In this way, he can also persuade his colleagues to let them rest easy-agreeing to Li Buqi's plan is to give Li Buqi a chance to make mistakes-as long as the majority of the speech officials form a united front, they are not afraid of one or two people making mistakes.

As for the last person who caught Li Buqi as the incriminating evidence, of course, it should be him, Liu Xiang. In this way, he not only got the credit for saving money for the imperial court, but also gained another reputation for discernment, only benefits. If someone accuses him of Li Buqi in the future, it is very simple for him to clear it up - he agreed to let Li Buqi flexibly control some of the money for the sake of the overall situation of the imperial court, but he did not allow Li Buqi to be corrupt, and in the end, Li Buqi's crime was exposed by him, how can you blame him. I believe that no one can say anything else.

So he made up his mind to agree to Li Buren's request, but before that, he had to bring Wang Gongchen and Zhang Yaozuo in, especially to unify his voice with Wang Gongchen, so as not to be able to trap the fox and cause a commotion.
