Chapter 231: One Beginning, Two Outcomes?

Yang Reform is now completely aware of how tragic his own coinage is.

Our traversers are all living Lei Feng.

Yang Gai was secretly sad, and in the future, he should not be too hasty about what he was not clear about, and he should discuss it with his henchmen more.

"Alas...... Forget it, this matter, in general, I am also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also my obligation as an emperor to seek benefits for the people, which can be regarded as a good thing that I have done for the people of the world. Yang Reform still decided to face the reality, in any case, this productivity is progress, Yang Reform can only comfort himself from this point.

"Your Ministers obey." Bi Ziyan had no choice but to agree.

However, Bi Ziyan followed up and asked: "Your Majesty, what about the casting?" ”

Yang Gengai really wants to pull his hair, and the landlord's family has no surplus grain, what can he do! His own internal money has really bottomed out.

"I will find a way to do this then, and it shouldn't be difficult to let the household department pay some more." Yang Reform can only say this, take one step at a time.

…… Yang Reform was "in pain", his mind was in chaos, he still had something to do, but now he was in no mood because of this. hurriedly let a few of his henchmen thank him, and Yang Gengai locked himself on the platform alone, ready to make his head sober and sober.

platform.

The emperor sat alone on the chair, and no one, even Wang Chengen, was kicked out by the emperor and could only stay outside the door.

Yang Reform was very chaotic, and wrote down everything that emerged from his mind on paper one by one, in order to vent himself and organize his thinking.

Immigration, Disaster Relief, Migration, Qincha, Xu Guangqi, River, Grain, Transportation, Wai Hu, Field, Yutian, Minting, Minting, Post Station, Post Pawn, Li Zicheng, Paper Money, Paper, Cotton, Wool, Textile, Sheep Eating Man, Glass, Liulizhai, New Army, Training, Sun Chengzong, Musket, Cannon, Battleship, Fleet, Wild Boar Skin, Liaodong, Korea, Grenade, Zheng Zhilong, Taiwan, Customs, Mongolia, Shanxi, Salt, Yueben, Eunuch, Donglin Party, Coal Mountain...... A table of paper was written densely, and the ground also fell to the ground.

Yang Gengai finally wrote "money" on the paper, such a big word.

The core of all these things has only one word, that is, money, you can do anything with money, and you can't do anything without money, Yang Reform suddenly understood.

Although all things are complicated, there is always a word for money. Yang Reform faced this money word, looked at it again and again, and his heart began to settle down, and the original negative emotions such as anger, unwillingness, chagrin, frustration, and complaining began to dissipate.

Yang Gai picked up the piece of paper full of the word "money", looked at it, looked at it, looked at it. Although there are thousands of clues, as long as you always grasp one keyword "money", you can unlock all the sections.

Not bad, not bad...... Yang Gai understood, and in his mind, he also had a relatively clear context, and he knew what he should do.

Yang Gai neatly cleaned up the papers scattered on the table and on the ground. Put the word "money" on the top.

"Big companion, big companion...... "Yang Gengai called out loudly.

"Your Majesty, the slave is here, the slave is here, the slave is in the ......" Wang Chengen has been staying at the door, listening carefully to the movement through the door, for fear that something will happen to the emperor, then something will happen, hearing the emperor's call, he immediately agreed loudly and ran in. When he saw an emperor who was full of energy and spirit, Wang Chengen breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the emperor was fine.

"Ome, burn this stack of paper in my hand." Yang Gengai realized in his heart that all complicated things are appearances, and the real problem is money.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave will let people burn it." Wang Chengen agreed.

"No, just burn it here, I'm going to watch it burn to ashes for myself." Yang Gai insisted, these things are the secrets in his heart, related to his future fate, if they are taken by someone who cares, it will be a big trouble, this thing is not allowed to be seen by others. It can only be burned.

Although Wang Chengen was very strange, he still agreed, and then asked the two little eunuchs to carry a brazier and burn the thick stack of paper in front of the emperor.

Seeing that the stack of papers full of secrets in his heart turned into ashes, Yang Gai was satisfied.

"Otomo, how is the Inner Study Hall now?" After burning his troubles, Yang began to deal with the problem with a hundred times the spirit of reform. And all the problems can't get around a money word, so naturally we have to work hard from the money word.

"Back to Your Majesty, everything is fine, the boys in the inner study hall are studying hard, in order to hope that one day they can serve Your Majesty." Wang Chengen was puzzled for a moment, and then explained to the emperor.

"Yes, you sent someone to inform the inner study hall, and said that I will hold an exam in the near future, select all kinds of talented and loyal people, and give me errands, so that they can study hard and strive to pass the examination." Yang Gai decided to pass the examination to select the eunuch accountants in the inner study hall. This immigrant Qincha needs a large number of eunuchs to act as accountants to monitor the use of silver money in the immigration process, and the eunuch accountants are needed everywhere they use silver money, such as customs.

"The slave and maid obey, and then send someone to deliver the order." Wang Chengen agreed.

"No, wait, I still have something to do, let's go together, Xiao Shunzi, Erxizi are still studying in the inner study hall, right? Send for them together, for I have something to command. "Eunuch accounting is very important, there is a more important thing, the coinage has to send reliable people to manage and monitor, Yang Reform can trust now, not much, ready to let these two people go.

"The slave and maid obey the order, and then send someone to do it." Wang Chengen agreed, but he didn't go out immediately, ready to wait and see what else the emperor had to say.

Yang Gengai saw that Wang Chengen didn't react for a long time, and urged again: "Go quickly, go quickly." I'm waiting here. ”

Yang Reform figured out the key words involved in all the problems, that is, money, since it involves money, then first manage and supervise the accountants who use money, and then do a good job first.

Wang Chengen went out for a while and soon came back.

"Your Majesty, Master Xu has brought Zhang Jiude and Zhou Yanru to thank you!"

"Shane?"

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, thank you......" Wang Chengen saw that the emperor looked confused, and it is estimated that the emperor still does not understand the rules. So, he reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what do you have to say to the Qincha alone?" Now you can explain, so that the envoys can go down on an errand according to Your Majesty's wishes, and besides, Your Majesty will give a holy decree in person? Or Shang Fang's sword, or the addition of an official rank or something, you can do it now, otherwise, I'm afraid it's not easy to get out......"

It turns out that there is such a thing.

"Then I'll see you right away."

...... "The minister knocks to see Your Majesty." Three men came in and prostrated themselves.

"Master Xu, several, get up." After the salute, Yang Gengai called them up.

These few people can be regarded as the cooperation of the old, middle, and young people. Xu Guangqi is the oldest, Zhang Jiude is the middle-aged, and the youngest is Zhou Yanru, who is only in his thirties, but has more than ten years of experience as an official.

"Master Xu, a few of you, are about to go to the front line of disaster relief, I have nothing to send you, only a hope for you, my hope is that this immigration can be done well, can reduce the impact of natural disasters on my Ming Dynasty, so that my people can suffer less from natural disasters, if the disaster relief goes well, then I will prosper; If disaster relief fails, then we will decline,...... The matter of reviving the Ming Dynasty depends on the three of you. ”

"The ministers will live up to His Majesty's hopes, and they will do a good job and revive the Ming ......," several people said in unison.

"Zhang Jiude, I know that you have gradually risen through hard work, this is not easy, I hope that you can continue to carry forward your style, in this immigration process, more assistance to Master Xu, the river, the transportation of grain, the transportation of people, management, this immigration, is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, I will be recited for the people in the future, for a hundred generations, I hope you will not live up to me, I am optimistic about you, understand?" Yang began to give political lessons to these people.

Zhang Jiude's experience, Yang Reform roughly knows, listen to Wang Chengen said, this guy is from the river repair, this is not easy, from the river to the river governor, this, without a little ability to work hard, it is impossible to rise, but also to do the Ministry of Industry Shangshu, this, more than this person, there are a few brushes, Yang Reform is full of expectations for this person to join the immigration plan.

"Minister Zhang Jiude thanks His Majesty for his trust, and the minister must remember His Majesty's instructions, devote himself to the people, and assist Xu Ge Lao in handling the immigration matter." Zhang Jiude was very excited, and promised to live up to the emperor's trust, in fact, Zhang Jiude originally wanted to resign, people like him can do it to the Ministry of Industry, it can only be said that it is a miracle, and then stay in this position, it is very unsuitable, it is inevitable to be down, it is better to walk by yourself, ready to resign and go home, and enjoy the blessings, but now he was selected by the emperor to be a deputy minister in charge of the river, and Xu Guangqi cooperated, this, Zhang Jiude felt that he did it, it was very suitable for him, and he simply agreed to the emperor.

"Well, that's good. I am optimistic about you. ”

"Zhou Yanru, do you know what your biggest advantage is?" Yang Reform in turn gave Zhou Yanru a political lesson.

"The minister is stupid, please give your majesty advice." Zhou Yanru is not unaware of his advantages, that is, he is young, but he still has to say this, if he knows it, then how can the emperor continue to say it?

"Okay, don't be stupid, your biggest advantage is that you are young, you have countless time to study, this immigration process, I estimate, not a year or two can be completed, it may take a long time, Master Xu is not in good health, you are a young man, you have to help Master Xu more, you have to work harder, your biggest advantage, but also your biggest disadvantage, too young to be an official, has always been in the upper echelons, the general public, for the grassroots understanding is not enough, this will be a big obstacle for you to become an official, I sent you down this time, There is also a meaning, that is, I hope you exercise more, understand more about the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the low-level people, understand their lives, be able to integrate into the people, think more from the perspective of the people, consider the problem, in this regard, you have to learn from Master Xu, and Zhang Jiude, they have done a better job than you in this regard, and when you have laid a good foundation, with your age and qualifications, it will hardly be a problem to enter the cabinet in the future, you understand, don't let me down, understand? "Yang Reform knows the history of this person, this guy, not to mention that he will enter the cabinet after the future, or the first assistant for the perennial years, so Yang Reform does not intend to rewrite history on this issue, and is ready to "respect" history, so that this guy will become the cabinet or become the first assistant in the future. This is what Yang Reform said just now, do it well, have more contact with the grassroots, learn more about the life of the grassroots, and don't say that you will come up with some ideas that are too cold to be in high places.

Zhou Yanru didn't know what to say when he got the emperor's words, he was very excited, what does this mean? Does that mean that as long as you do a good job, it will be ironclad to enter the cabinet later? Isn't this the emperor cultivating himself? At that moment, he was moved to tears, and whimpered: "The minister has nothing to thank Your Majesty, but to follow Your Majesty's instructions, learn from Master Xu and Master Zhang, and have more contact with the people, so that you can serve Your Majesty in the future." ”

"Well, good, good, good job." Yang Reform praised a few more words.

"Master Xu, the responsibility of this immigration is huge, I won't say much, in the process of immigration, everything is for immigration, everything that is conducive to immigration and disaster relief, you can deal with it on my behalf, all local officials, vassal royal clans have the courage to obstruct, delay, bad things, or ineffective, I give you the sword of Shang Fang, when necessary, act for the king, kill those who should be killed, and fight those who should be beaten......"

The emperor's words made several people below exclaim, this emperor is really different from Xu Guangqi, such a big power, even the vassal king is also fighting.

“…… I know that when you handle immigration, many of them involve the household department, and for the convenience of immigration, I specially add Xu Guangqi as the secretary of the household department......"

Everyone took another breath, this power, this right of immigrants, is really not ordinarily big.

“…… Send another Jinyi Wei Qianhu to lead a thousand elites, and be responsible for the safety of the Qincha full-time ......"

Oh...... Zhang Jiude and Zhou Yanru both exclaimed in unison, this treatment, it's too good, it's too good, there are a thousand people to protect it? Is this going to war? is also secretly proud, this is the light! The emperor said to protect the Qincha, let's be a Qincha anyway, although it is a vice. That is, we are also protected.

Although Yang Reform gave a very high salary, which made the other two deputy ministers exclaim, but Xu Guangqi was very calm, Xu Guangqi was different from the two deputies, he knew and participated in the secrets of many emperors, knew what the emperor wanted, and knew what he wanted to do, everything was silent.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, you will definitely live up to your trust." Xu Guangqi just said very calmly. It didn't seem like there was much fluctuation in his expression.

Not long after, the holy decree of Qin Cha, Shang Fang's sword, was brought, and it was given to Xu Guangqi in person, and Xu Guangqi thanked him again. Didn't say much.

Yang Reform didn't say anything to Xu Guangqi too much, it has reached this level, everything is not in the word, and now he can only look at the curative effect, not the advertisement.

The three of them thanked and went out.

Yang Gengai remembered something again, and said to Wang Chengen: "Big companion, by the way, send that secret box to Master Xu, and explain the purpose." "Yang reformed this kind of secret box, this time, it was sent out the second one. The first one, which was given to Mao Wenlong, this kind of general who led the troops, was too far away and inconvenient to control, so he had to strengthen the connection through this kind of secret box, and it also became a link between a party and the emperor.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave will do it." Wang Chengen promised to do this kind of thing in person.

Yang Gengai sat on the dragon chair alone, thinking about whether he had made a mistake on this issue just now. On the issue of immigration, Xu Guangqi must be unconditionally supported, no matter who or what happens, it must be overcome. If someone blocks it and spoils his own business, Yang Reform doesn't mind going on a killing spree, this thing of immigration is too important to him, and the importance is far greater than the threat brought by the wild boar skin.

Yang Gengai kept tapping his fingers on the table rhythmically, while thinking about the problems that may arise in immigration and the impact on himself.

After a short time, Wang Chengen came back and said, "Your Majesty, everything has been explained. ”

"Well, that's good. I hope Master Xu won't let me down! Shh......hh Now Wang Chengen and himself are the two of them, in terms of trust, Wang Chengen surpasses Xu Guangqi and belongs to the most trusted person, so Yang Reform is not worried about Wang Chengen's stubbornness or emotion.

"Your Majesty, if the slave maid says something that shouldn't be said, is the authority that Your Majesty gave to Master Xu too heavy? and tens of millions of silver...... "Wang Chengen was also shocked when he heard the words that the emperor gave to Xu Guangqi. Generally, the emperor gave Shang Fang the sword, that is just to control the people below, there is like the emperor, ** naked directly say or fight or kill, and there are a thousand brocade guards to guard, the most important thing, Xu Guangqi in his hands, controls the use of millions of taels of silver, this, power, wealth, are there, very dangerous.

"Hehe, I believe that I have done nothing wrong in this matter, and I can trust Master Xu's character." Yang Gai is full of confidence in this.

Yang Reform is very confident in this matter, and he can't help but laugh at himself in his heart, as soon as Chongzhen came to power in history, he also did a similar thing to himself, that is, he believed that a big fool could calm Liao in five years, and then mobilized the power of the country to support him, and also made up millions of taels of silver for him to use, but the final result was a failure, that one, also gave Shang Fang the sword, added the title of Shangshu, and also used the Shang Fang sword to kill a first-class master, and the hands were also millions of taels of silver, and there were hundreds of thousands of troops under his hands, but, even so, It has not reached the point of rebellion, and Yang Reform is not even worried that Xu Guangqi will rebel.

As soon as he came to power, he did his best to raise millions of taels of silver to support one person to do one thing...... In history, that Chongzhen chose Yuan Chonghuan, and he ran the military Pingliao, and he was outside; And he chose Xu Guangqi, who was an internal immigrant. What I did was completely opposite to that Chongzhen in history, and I also hoped that I would have a completely opposite result.

Yang Gengai prayed secretly.
