Chapter 1571 - Reward the Heroes

Da Yu'er refused to forgive Zhu Youzhen, and Zhu Youzhen had no choice but to put her under house arrest in Changchun Garden, and Herzhe was responsible for taking care of her. Zhu Youzhen was full of guilt for this kind Mongolian girl: he loved Chongyao and not Da Yu'er back then, but Da Yu'er was willing to sacrifice his happiness and future just because of a promise to Chongyao, but also to protect Zhu Youzhen.

The enemy is far away from the enemy, and the ghost knot is too lonely

In contrast, what did Zhu Youzhen do? When she was forced to marry far away in Shenyang, he couldn't protect himself, and he didn't even have time to think of her; When she was crushed by a man she didn't like every night, he rode her jujube red horse and worked hard for his career; When she finally had a son and finally turned her feelings into maternal love, he killed her husband and son! Since the crossing, the person he thinks he is most sorry for is her!

But Zhu Youzhen had to do it again. Needless to say, killing Emperor Taiji, as for killing Da Yu'er's young son, it was because Zhu Youzhen was familiar with this history and knew that Brother Jiu was the future Emperor of Shunzhi. The Qing army entered the customs to destroy the Ming during the Shunzhi period, although Shunzhi was still a child at that time, and he could not calculate all the accounts on his head, but he was the biggest representative of the Manchu Qing Dynasty after all, and if he killed him, Kangxi, Qianlong, Xianfeng, Xuantong and others in the future will naturally never appear in history again. In this sense, although Zhu Youzhen's move is a little cruel, it will never be troubled in the future, and it is really the greatest responsibility to the people of the world!

The enemy is not far away, not cool, Sun hated Mo coldly, and was lonely

What Zhu Youzhen didn't expect was that history always has its strong inertia, and even if he deliberately changes, the consequences are often unexpected. He originally imagined that if Huang Taiji and Jiu Elder Brother were killed in the "Ploughing Pig" operation, Huang Taiji's eldest son Haoge would definitely be able to succeed to the throne. And Hauge was a brave and unscrupulous man, and he became an "emperor", which was very beneficial to the destruction of the Tartars.

Unexpectedly, the contradictions within the Manchu Qing Dynasty led to Haoge's failure to succeed to the throne, but the eleventh elder brother Bomu Bogol, whom Zhu Youzhen had never heard of, succeeded to the throne, and Dolgon, the most insidious and cunning of the Manchu nobles, still won the position of regent. From another perspective, it has changed a small part of history, but it cannot be said that it has changed the trend of history, and there is still a long way to go.

Therefore, Zhu Youzhen could only put aside the love-hate entanglement with Da Yuer for the time being, and drove back to the Forbidden City. Of course, his secret exit from the palace in the past few days is not all to meet Da Yuer, but more importantly, to meet and reward all the members of the "Ploughing Pig" team.

The "No. 1 operation" was successfully completed, especially the final "pig-splitting" link was a great success, and the Daming Intelligence Department headed by Yanling, Shi Chunhu, and Zhang Fang made great contributions. None of the 50 warriors who went to Shenyang died in the entire operation, and only a few were wounded by arrows in the process of breaking through. After highlighting the city of Shenyang, everyone galloped westward to the Mongolian steppe, and returned to Guannei through the grassland. Because Shi Chunhu was very familiar with the terrain of this area and the activities of the Mongols, he did not encounter any accidents along the way.

For such a national soldier, Zhu Youzhen naturally did not hesitate to reward. Yan Ling, Shi Chunhu, Zhang Fang, and Zhu Youzhen each rewarded 200,000 taels of silver at one time, and the other team members also rewarded each with silver ranging from 1 to 50,000 taels according to the size of their merits. For this alone, Zhu Youzhen spent more than one million taels of silver. But more than one million taels of silver bought Huang Taiji's life, and he also cultivated so many elites of the Ministry of Intelligence, this silver is worth spent!

In addition, Zhu Youzhen also gave everyone iron coupons. However, this iron coupon does not have the function of "avoiding death", but only indicates the great merits made by the team members for the country this time, and their families can be passed down from generation to generation as an honor, which is actually equivalent to the "Order of the Republic". At present, Zhu Youzhen has not yet carried out the reform of the whole team, and after the reform in the future, he will definitely replace the iron coupon system with a medal system.

However, because the Ming Intelligence Department is still a secret agency and does not belong to the existing official system, the heroes cannot be promoted according to the normal procedures. Moreover, the Ministry of Intelligence is still in its infancy, and it is impossible to transfer these backbones.

However, Zhu Youzhen had already prepared a workaround, and although he could not be granted an official position, he could transfer the official product first. For example, Yan Ling was originally a military attache of the second grade, and now he is issued according to the grade of the first grade.

In addition, the Ministry of Intelligence has taken the lead in piloting a system of allowances. Because the level of officials in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is compared with the clan's or the level of social consumption, is too low. Take Zhengyipin as an example, the annual salary is only 1,044 stones, and the monthly salary is 87 stones, and this amount has not changed for more than 200 years since this amount was set in the Hongwu period. And the prince didn't do anything, and he had 10,000 stone a year, not counting the money for his wife and son, and the rewards from time to time.

However, prices have been changing, and the imperial court often plays tricks such as "true color", "folding color", "half of money" and so on, changing the law to deduct officials' money. Officials wield a lot of power, but they are not enough to maintain a decent life, so they give a "reasonable" excuse for power rent-seeking.

Zhu Youzhen knew that it was impossible to expect officials to be like Hai Rui. Although he disagrees with the statement of "high salary and incorruptible", it is a matter of course for people who have contributed a lot to the country to take more money, otherwise who would want to contribute to the country?

Therefore, he is now experimenting with a system of allowances in the Ministry of Intelligence as a supplement to the current system of paying salaries to officials. Still taking Yan Ling as an example, he issued a monthly salary according to the first product, which was eighty-seven stones, but it was subdivided into three parts: moon rice, silk rice, and silver rice. Regardless of the grade or size, the moon rice is one stone; Folding silk rice is to discount rice into silk, one stone of rice into one silk, one silk into six dollars of silver; Folding silver rice is to discount rice into silver, and one stone of rice is converted into six dollars and five cents of silver. In the end, the actual monthly amount of silver in hand was sixty taels.

But even if Zhu Youzhen controls the price of rice again, the price of rice in Jingshi has never fallen to three taels and one stone, and more than sixty taels of silver can buy up to twenty stones of rice. Based on this calculation, the actual salary of the Zhengyi rank official is only a quarter of the nominal one, and the other grades are also similar.

For such an important institution as the Ministry of Intelligence, the allowance set by Zhu Youjian is also very powerful. Yan Ling's allowance is 200 taels per month, which is equivalent to three times the monthly salary; Others have different allowances, but they are all generous. But the allowance is not based on official character, but according to official position, and if you are not in this position, the allowance will naturally change.

Yan Ling has been practicing martial arts with his master Zhou Kui since he was a child, and it is inevitable that he will be the same as his master, and he will be more important to money. This time, I got so many rewards at once, and I will have a high monthly allowance to get in the future, and the snot bubbles are about to come out, and I am even more desperate for Zhu Youzhen. The others were also overjoyed, and they asked Zhu Youzhen for his life, hoping to carry out the next mission as soon as possible. Zhu Youzhen also joked to everyone: "You are all important weapons of the country, and you can't use them lightly, otherwise this bit of my family wealth will be all tossed up in a few days!" ”

In the end, Zhu Youzhen left Shi Chunhu behind and said with a smile: "In order to keep it secret, I issued an edict to let you 'die' at that time, and now you should also 'come back from the dead'." You've all worked hard, I'm giving you a month's vacation, how do you want to spend this holiday? ”

The ground is not cool, Sun Qiu is lonely and strange

Shi Chunhu's face turned red, and he replied shyly: "Holy Lord, the minister just wants to go shopping in Jingshi more..."

"Hehe, it's good to go shopping!" Zhu Youzhen laughed and said, "Maybe I'll go shopping with you!" ”
