Chapter 165: Huaishang (3)

"Yes, Lord Yan, when you come to Qingjiang next time, I will definitely bring you some tobacco seeds...... Never ask for money! ”

"The father laughed, how can this official ask for the people's things at will."

When the two answered, the rest of the crowd was also discussing.

"Public Security Division? It seems to be a card just hung a few days ago, I heard that it is to pick up officials in the local area, and then set up subdivisions in various places, and the former government service or anything is not wanted, all of them are used as soldiers and simple old Chengren as patrol police, patrolling and arresting in sections, and when encountering big and small things, they are all in charge. ”

"I know this lord surnamed Yan...... It is the classic history of our Jiangyin, capable and capable! Soon after taking office, he trained a team of soldiers, and he personally led and suppressed a group of river bandits of several hundred people, who could shoot bows on the boat and fire left and right volleys...... Tsk, that majesty, that awesomeness! ”

"No wonder, no wonder. Our side is safe and secure to be protected by him, and this time it is really reassuring. ”

"That's right, the crown prince can use this person, and he still really knows people."

"Although the money is collected ruthlessly, but if we can do this, our money is not in vain."

"I heard that His Highness is still going to train a new army...... Speaking of which, when Emperor Chongzhen increased his salary, he said that he would train two million elite soldiers, and the thieves and the thieves could not be destroyed...... This practice has come and gone, there are not many soldiers, but Tian Fu has added a lot, and now that His Royal Highness the Prince is in charge here, will he also be added? ”

"Well, it's hard to say."

"There are more and more soldiers, why are there more and more thieves? What kind of newspaper does the news department read, Dongyu is not a good stubble, why is it so difficult for our people to come over? ”

"Alas, be cautious, be cautious."

"I'm afraid of what, now there is no Dongchang and Jinyi Wei Captain!"

………… Yan Yingyuan didn't hear this, he was the deputy director of the Public Security Division, and the main secretary of the fourth grade was the original governor of Caoyun, but now all the affairs of Huaishang are under the management of the generalissimo's office, and the governor of Huai'an has withdrawn and no longer sends people, that is, the official seals of the prefectures and counties are still retained, and the matter of cleaning up the account books with money and grain is handed over to them, and the three classes of officials under the bottom are also all abolished, and none are left, just this good governance, I don't know how much Yan Yingyuan admires!

In the area south of the Yangtze River, when it comes to income and land production, it is not said that as long as the people are willing to do it, there is no problem with food and clothing at the end of the day. No matter how much income you have, you can't resist the wolves to bite you, in a county, there are only a few dozen servants in the serious economic team, but there are some helpers or something, in a county in Jiangyin alone, there must be a small 2,000 people!

So many people, what to eat and what to chew? It's not all on the heads of the people!

When the tax is collected, these guys just wrap up the forehead and turn it down layer by layer, and there are countless tricks to harm the people, and an acre of land is given more than one or two taels of silver a year, and these bastards can receive ten taels!

The abolition of the official servants, leaving only some settling masters and forced laborers, and the people pay grain and taxes, and there is no explanation for the time being, but the original public security and the prison where the guards are in charge have been taken over by the Public Security Division. Although Yan Yingyuan is the deputy secretary, there is no official seal above, and now he is the deputy director in charge of the two states and nine counties of Huai'an Prefecture, and everything big and small is also in his hands.

Yan Yingyuan is not a good official, a small history, commonly known as the "four masters" in the county, in fact, the county order is also a little more authoritative than the four masters, he is just good at doing his own thing, so whether it is in Jiangyin or Qingjiang, it is nothing more than doing his own things well.

It is also a matter of duty to appease people's hearts and make the upper and lower levels harmonious and auspicious.

After he talked and laughed with everyone for a while, he took his subordinates and escorted people away. Now the manpower of the Public Security Department is actually far from sufficient, Huai'an is very important here, Yan Yingyuan also brought more than 100 subordinates who he is used to working on, and the rest of the manpower is the suitable manpower selected from the local people in Huai'an and the army of Liu Konghe and other generals.

Say appropriate, there is no way, can only pick some shrewd and not slippery, the locals pick the old into reliable, good reputation, outsiders, pick a clever point to do important errands, check and balance each other, at present, new people and new atmosphere, whether it is good to do things, or to the people, can do polite and polite, do not accept bribes, the whole Qingjiang, is also in his hands, gradually become safe.

For Yan Yingyuan, this is enough.

Before leaving, several figures flashed in the crowd, Yan Yingyuan looked at it and seemed familiar, but the other party walked away in an instant, since he couldn't recognize it, it was just that.

"It's a bit like the prince?" He thought so, but laughed to himself.

This little history of his own is like a small history, it seems that because of the suppression of the Jiang bandits, his reputation actually reached the ears of the prince, and after an edict, he went from a non-mainstream classic history to suddenly became the deputy director of the five products!

When he set off, the magistrate of Jiangyin and a large group of miscellaneous officials saw him off together, and the envy of everyone was not mentioned.

is the county, although he was polite in the past, but after all, he was a miscellaneous history, and he couldn't get on the stage, and he was promoted all of a sudden.

Coupled with the congratulations and congratulations of relatives and friends, the happiness of the family is naturally like drinking ice in summer, very happy.

"The more this is the case, the more we must do things well, so as to live up to the kindness of the king."

The smile on the corner of Yan Yingyuan's mouth was a matter of blink of an eye, he actually didn't know that Zhu Cihong's expectations for him were far more than the deputy director of the Public Security Department in one place!

………… Zhu Cihong is in the crowd, from the moment he heard the businessman talking about the gold, he in a green coat and a small hat, dressed as a rich and noble man, he has been listening attentively.

After all, many political, financial, and military initiatives were created by themselves, and as far as this centigold is concerned, it was also moved from later generations, and there is no precedent to follow at this time node.

Now it seems that because of the special reasons of a specific period, Li Jin has resentment among ordinary merchants, but it is also acceptable. As for whether or not to increase the land endowment, this is a very important measure and cannot be shaken.

Further actions after the abolition of government officials should also be carried out as soon as possible.

As for the big businessmen in the Jiangnan area, the movements of the gentry and landlords are, of course, extremely important.

It was as if a great storm had formed in his mind, blowing so hard that even he was about to lose control of it.

He knows very well that a huge turmoil is about to break out in about a month.

In the Jiangnan area, rice is about to ripen.

And in the Jiangbei area, the wheat is already about to be harvested!

At this time, the wheat varieties are relatively late-ripening, and if they are in later generations, I am afraid that this time is already golden everywhere. Even if it is late to mature, at most half a month, Jiangnan and Jiangbei will use the knife to open the sickle, and before and after the sickle, that is, when the imperial court collects taxes.

Of course, it is the time for the big businessmen and gentry to join hands to control grain prices, collude with the central and local officials, and take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.

At this time, in the south of the Yangtze River, I am afraid that there will be more than one million silver, millions of stone rice and grain hoarding.

With so much grain, of course, the businessmen will not stay in their hands, and what is needed for capital operation is profit! In the past, the price of grain in the area of Beijing has always been high, although the transportation of the imperial court will not make the Beijing lack of grain, but the bulk of the grain is for military and official use, and the grain of the common people sometimes has to rely on merchants to transport it continuously from the Haidao Canal.

The silver in Shanhaiguan is as much as water, and the price of grain has always been very high.

In the northern realm, in which year has there been no famine in these years? Large families can barely survive, and small people, if there is no grain transport from the south, it will be even more unbearable.

Even in the local area, the people will not have any savings in their hands, and the grain stocks are limited and tight. In particular, the state collects silver and copper money, and when the grain is collected, the people have to sell it to the merchants at a low price, pay taxes after the grain is finished, and then after a while, the limited grain stock will be eaten, and when the time comes, they will work hard and buy back the grain they grow at a high price...... The most unreasonable thing in the world is probably like this.

At this time, I don't know how many people are secretly colluding, discussing, and resisting the Lijin system in the Jiangbei area. Such a system is not a commercial tax, but it is a serious commercial tax. It's just that a name for persuasion was added, and it was not a door-to-door collection, but a card collection was set up in the area of Huai'an Qingjiang, which is the main road along the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and the north and south of the world.

Now that I think about it, I can get Huai'an to do development, it's really God's favor!

"Come on...... Fight your mother! ”

Zhu Cihong pulled his little hat a little irritably, and in his heart, for a while, his confidence was not enough.

To be honest, he stayed in Nanjing for so long, except for seeing one live drama after another, he didn't feel that he had much to gain at all.

The imperial court structure team, he helped Chongzhen set up, but the important person who does things, let alone the military affairs department, what about the military aircraft department?

There was no massacre and suppression by the Manchus at the beginning of the country, and there was no tool for the Eight Banners to suppress the gentry when the Manchus and Han were opposed, and now at this time, to talk about the comprehensive suppression of the gentry, with the experience of the Qing Dynasty to be used in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, I feel that between the feelings, that is, to improve some administrative efficiency, the real core, he has not touched!

How to disintegrate an army, attack the enemy army, and even fight in and out of a horse, it is all possible for Zhu Cihong.

But how can the confrontation of a stratum, especially a huge stratum of interests parasitic in one's own body, disintegrate the main body of a state...... When I said this, I didn't think I was crazy.

Looking at this great river and mountain from afar, millions of people have already worked hard for his goal, and for him, it is really a long way to go......
