Regarding Li Hongfei's plan to circle money, Zhu Youzhen not only agreed to it in full, but also implemented it in Jinling City at the same time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Of course, Li Hongfei doesn't know these things for the time being, but today Li Hongfei slept until noon, and also explained to Guo Sheng, no one should disturb him.

And in just one morning, the entire city of Suzhou was boiling.

First of all, early in the morning, the officers and soldiers who were newly transferred to the city arrested people everywhere in the city....... No, it should be said that it was an invitation.

The newly appointed prefect and Wu Hao, the same governor, took a team of officers to the major gambling houses, brothels, restaurants, and these consumption places early in the morning, and invited the shopkeeper or steward inside.

After that, Zhou Furen, the richest man in Suzhou, Cao Hong, the owner of Suzhou's largest cloth village, and Su Dinghe, the owner of the largest rice shop, were also invited to the prefect's yamen.

In short, as long as they are doing big business and making a lot of money in Suzhou City, they have been invited by Wu Hao one by one.

Just when the people were talking, the notices posted everywhere in the city once again attracted the attention of the people.

"In order to resist the Manchu bandits going south, Suzhou City will enter a state of war from now on, and the prefect yamen will recruit a large number of military talents, including: military doctors, blacksmiths, miners, firearms manufacturing talents, cloth textile talents, agricultural production talents, businessmen who know how to operate, etc., once hired, double the salary, and can also enter the court as an official, and the official position ranges from nine to six grades." A literate man read aloud to the notice.

"Double the wages? Is this true? But what is a talent, and how can you be hired? ”

This is what most people think, and it seems that the attraction of money is still great.

"The prefect is recruiting professional talents, such as this agricultural production talent, that is, farmers who can farm the land, as long as the same land, your harvest is better than others, then it is considered a talent." The officers and soldiers who were responsible for maintaining order on the side explained.

Li Hongfei was afraid that ordinary people would not understand the content of the notice, so he deliberately arranged personnel to explain it to each place where the notice was posted.

"Is it true that you can still be an official? Can you be an official if you can't read? "Some people are concerned about whether they can become officials.

After all, the officials of the Ming Dynasty basically had to be scholars who participated in the imperial examination and gained fame, and now suddenly a farmer who farmed the land could also become an official, and no one would believe it!

"Of course, you can be an official, the so-called three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion, the prefect has to add a lot of new departments, the officials of these departments can be illiterate, but they must be the top talents in various industries, the best, and they can even be the highest officials of the new department, and the official position is six grades." The soldier came down with another dose of fierce medicine.

This is also a helpless thing, Li Hongfei after learning about the six parts of the Ming Dynasty, found that there is no department, is professional management of talents from all walks of life, among which the Ministry of Industry is a little side, but it is a pity that the officials inside, in addition to the people who know, do not understand any professional knowledge.

Laymen guide insiders, and in such a situation, it is strange that those technicians can innovate.

In addition, there are indeed a lot of talents from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty, but these people are not taken seriously.

What is reading for? Naturally, it is for the sake of being an official.

Now Li Hongfei is ready to classify according to the departments behind him, in these new departments, you don't need to be highly educated to be an official, which is equivalent to opening a road to heaven for those professionals.

For a while, many people with a skill have become active.........

And when these people really become officials, they will find that this is simply a big pit, good technology can indeed be an official, but if you want to be a big official, you must have excellent professional knowledge, those who don't know a few big words, how to explain the truth contained in those professional knowledge?

Of course, those guys who work hard to supplement cultural knowledge in order to be promoted, and who are simply harder than scholars, what do they think in their hearts, this is a matter for the future.

Now the prefect's yamen has been surrounded by soldiers brought by Guo Sheng.

"I said, little general, tell me, what is this prefect going to do? The concubine is a businessman who does her duty, and the prefect arrested us to the yamen like this, shouldn't we give an explanation? "A brothel bustard who was invited early in the morning began to sit still when he saw that it was noon and the prefect had not yet appeared.

"Humph! Knowing that you are a businessman in your own right, and everyone here is also a businessman, don't worry, Mr. Li is just inviting everyone to drink tea and talk about something by the way. Guo Sheng said coldly.

For the word duty, he deliberately said very seriously, a brothel boss, where can he do his duty?

As for the casino shopkeeper, he originally wanted to say something, but after listening to Guo Sheng's words, he obediently shut up and saved his head.

"I've drunk seven or eight cups of tea, and I'm not allowed to go to the thatched house, when will your family come, even if the prefect is not available now, this Lu Tong sentenced, why didn't they show up after Zhao experience?" The owner of Hongde Restaurant said.

Others don't dare to speak, he is not afraid, Suzhou Tong sentenced Lu Youcai to be his cousin, and their Lu family is in Suzhou, and they are also considered a big family, as long as they don't break the law, the prefect doesn't dare to do anything to him.

"Don't worry, the prefect is chatting with Zhou Yuanwai, Cao Yuanwai, and Su Yuanwai, and it won't be long before I come to see you. And we didn't say that we wouldn't let you go to the thatched house, but there was a secret meeting going on in this yamen, and there was no soldier to lead the way, so it would be troublesome if you were injured by mistake. Wu Hao walked in from the outside at this time. Said with a smile.

Brothels, gambling houses, and restaurants belong to luxury consumption places, so they naturally have to be distinguished from those who deal in the necessities of life such as cloth farms and grain stores.

As for sending someone to follow when going to the toilet, this is Li Hongfei's coercive policy, first let this group of people feel the tense atmosphere and disrupt their position, and then when talking about conditions, they may be able to achieve unexpected results.

And this group of people who drank tea and drank until they had to go to the toilet were not the saddest, the saddest thing was the group of officials who went to the General's Mansion yesterday to catch the wind.

"Master Li said that there is an important meeting in the prefect's yamen today, except for the invitees, but those who do not have identity tokens will not be allowed to enter." The guards kept a group of officials out of the yamen.

"We are the officials of the imperial court, and this prefect's yamen is our official place, why don't we enter?" Lu Youcai said angrily.

"I'm sorry, I only recognize tokens, not people. Moreover, Master Li has explained that now that the war in the north continues, in order to prevent the intrusion of the fine work, in the future, identity tokens will be required to enter and exit the prefect's yamen. "The soldiers guarding the gate don't get in with oil and salt.

The so-called prefect's yamen is actually a comprehensive office for local officials, and the people who work here are the heads of various departments.

The daily work of the prefect is to convene a meeting of these responsible persons every day to collect various information conveyed by the officials below and give instructions in a timely manner.

Therefore, the prefect himself does not need to personally hold a trial to avenge the people's grievances, even if the yamen is closed for a month, the following government agencies can still operate as usual, even if there are major cases that need to be tried by Li Hongfei in person, it will also make Li Hongfei move to the local county yashengtang, after all, outside the prefect's yamen, there is not even a drum of grievances.

"But what is the identity token you are talking about, and where should we get it?" Lu Youcai asked anxiously.

If these officials learned that they couldn't go in, they would probably have sneaked home and slept a lot, and they didn't plan to report any work to the newly appointed prefect anyway.

But today is different, early this morning, these officials were woken up by the seven aunts and eight aunts in the family, saying that the prefect sent troops to arrest whom, and hoped to go to the yamen to help inquire about the situation.

No, in the name of reporting work, a group of people came together to find out the truth.

"The identity token issued by Lord Li yesterday afternoon, by the way, that's it." The soldier handed his identity token to the officials for a look.

A palm-sized wooden plaque, with only a name written on it and stamped with the prefect's special official seal, became an identity tag.

The wooden card is very rough, it is obvious that it is in a hurry, and the name on it is also crooked, comparable to a child's graffiti, needless to say, this must be from the hand of Li Hongfei, ordinary people want to imitate, really can't imitate, and then cooperate with the prefect's official seal, which is also a relatively advanced anti-counterfeiting technology.

"Little brother, can you help inform me and tell Master Li that we didn't come yesterday, so we haven't received the identity token yet, can we reapply for it now?"

Xiucai can't tell the soldiers reasonably, anyway, the other party only recognizes the token, so find a way to get the token first.

"Didn't come yesterday? Aren't you officials of the Yamen? Didn't you have to work yesterday? It doesn't matter if you neglect your duties, I'm just a small soldier, my duty is to guard the gate, the identity token thing, when I change the guard in the afternoon, I can go in and help you pass it on! The soldier didn't give any face, and by the way, he also insinuated that the other party was derelict in his duties.

Even if you go to the palace to go to the court, if there is really a last resort, then you can still ask for leave, a prefect yamen, absent from work for half a day, how can it be considered dereliction of duty.

Now, all the officials have also understood, this Li Menghui is deliberately disgusting them, isn't it that he didn't come to the yamen for half a day? Is this a dereliction of duty?

"He Li Menghui is really too deceitful, I have to go in today, I want to see what he can do to me!" Lu Youcai relied on his old qualifications and wanted to break through.

The rest of the people had taken the lead, and naturally they also flocked to get in.

"Choke!"

The four soldiers at the door drew their sabers and said loudly: "If you dare to take a step forward, it will be regarded as a rebellion, and you will be killed on the spot!" ”

When the soldiers in the yamen heard the movement, they rushed out at once more than 20 musketeers armed with bird guns, and this battle was no joke at first glance.

"It is said that the new official took office with three fires, and this Li Menghui burned a little too much........."

Now in this situation, everyone naturally does not dare to go in again, so they can only talk at the door.

"Humph! The old man went back to write a book, and everyone jointly signed a book to refer to him. "An older official began to encourage everyone to make trouble.

"Then we won't be here in the afternoon?" Someone asked.

After all, the soldier had said before that he would help with the transmission in the afternoon.

"Of course I'm coming, I'll see what tricks he can play in the afternoon!" Lu Youcai said through gritted teeth.
