Yang Reform was ready to add an official to Xu Guangqi, but unfortunately, Yang Reform never understood the ancient official positions, ranks, rules, etc., so he had to find Wang Chengen for help.

Wang Chengen is a eunuch, if it is an ordinary matter, it will be approved on behalf of the emperor, but this matter involves the emperor Xu Guangqi, this, if he still talks too much, it is not suitable.

Wang Chengen was so abrasive by the emperor that he couldn't help it, so he whispered: "Your Majesty, Master Xu is now ranked as a young protector, isn't Your Majesty going to change the cabinet now?" You can add the title of a scholar, such as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, or if Master Xu goes to disaster relief, he needs the cooperation of the household department, etc., or he can hang the title of a household scholar...... "Wang Chengen felt that he was forced. Since the emperor must say it himself, then he will say it himself.

"Tobe Shangshu? If you become the head of the household, won't you be able to go out of Beijing? Could it be that the household department has not moved out of Beijing? Yang Gengai asked puzzledly, isn't there only one secretary of the household department? It's not impossible for Xu Guangqi to be the secretary of the household department, but Xu Guangqi is going to go out for disaster relief, so wouldn't the household department have to go out with him, otherwise wouldn't this household department have no chief official?

Wang Chengen was dumbfounded, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this is just an increase in title and concurrently, and it is not actually working in the household department, just to facilitate the handling of official affairs during disaster relief." Wang Chengen burst into tears, the emperor still couldn't figure this out.

Yes! Can this household secretary still work part-time? Yang reformed and figured out some ancient rules.

"Well, just a scholar of Gawen Yuange." Yang Reform said that he wanted to increase the official, so he would add it, and as for the title of the head of the household department, Yang Reform still had to consider, whether to let Xu Guangqi go out for disaster relief, this had to be considered.

Xu Guangqi originally wanted to excuse himself, but Wang Chengen came out and said: "Master Xu, Your Majesty's golden mouth, since the words have been spoken, there is no reason to regret it, Master Xu is still grateful." ”

Xu Guangqi paused for a moment, and didn't think much about it, thanksgiving. This time, Xu Guangqi officially has the title of university scholar and officially becomes an auxiliary minister, which is much more upright than before, when he used to participate in state affairs in the identity of Shaobao.

"Master Xu, in this immigration process, how did you defend against the plague and get sick?"

"This? Returning to Your Majesty, this, there are military doctors or Langzhong, and there are Huimin pharmacies and medical officers in the locality, which is enough to ensure the safety of immigrants and avoid large-scale epidemics. Xu Guangqi explained.

"This can't work, I am now immigrants in the millions, not more than thousands and hundreds, so, I feel that we should think of a simple, feasible, convenient, easy-to-do, cheap way to prevent large-scale epidemic outbreaks, this, my companion, send a message to the Tai Hospital, let them quickly think of a way, in the process of immigration, how to simple, convenient, feasible, and cheap to prevent the occurrence of epidemics, and send it to me tomorrow morning before the meeting."

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

For the emperor's arbitrariness, several other people have no opinions, after all, the plague or something, everyone does not want to happen, although it did not happen before, but it does not mean that it will not happen now, after all, it is different from the immigration in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is a million immigrants in a short period of time, which is different from the long-lasting period of the year.

"When Master Xu said this, I have more confidence in this immigration, and this mood is much more cheerful, hehe, Master Xu, do you really want to do this immigration in person? Can't there be someone else in place? "Yang Gengai saw that Xu Guangqi wanted to do this immigration thing in person, and he was very reluctant, he was above the court, and he had one less helper!

"Back to Your Majesty, this immigration involves millions of immigrants, it is related to the peace of my dynasty, there can be no negligence, the minister is most familiar with this immigration plan, the most understanding of this immigration policy, and the minister is the most suitable." Xu Guanqi still insisted on going in person.

Oh, yes! Xu Guangqi was responsible for drafting this plan, and he formulated it, those places are more important, there are needs to be paid attention to, how to deal with problems encountered, and this master who is afraid of himself already has a bottom in his heart. Indeed, it is the most suitable candidate.

"Master Xu, let's draw up this disaster relief plan first, and tomorrow I will convene the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to discuss the disaster relief in the Wenhua Palace, and then talk about it." Yang Gai was still very hesitant, he really had no one available.

"Yes." Xu Guangqi said.

Suddenly, in this Wenhua Palace, there was silence again.

Xu Guangqi seemed to remember something, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister still has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

"If you have anything, just say it." Yang Gai said.

"Your Majesty, the minister's recruitment plan is related to the recruitment of new troops on the Zhizhi side, and the minister thinks that it can be expanded? Recruit more new troops? Xu Guangqi also has an understanding of the military, and has also done the training of the new army, and knows many of the emperor's secret things, knowing that the emperor is recruiting peasants from Shaanxi and training the new army, which is also a good way to solve natural disasters. If you take three taels of silver to Shaanxi to hire peasants, I am afraid that you will need as much as you want.

Expansion? Yang Gengai pondered, he would spend more than 2 million taels to train 20,000 elite new troops, and he would expand his recruitment, and he also wanted to recruit more people, but unfortunately, this silver was a bit short of money, and he couldn't afford to recruit it!

"This, I'm not suspicious, it's just that I have limited financial resources, and I can't afford to raise too many recruits! These 20,000 elite new troops cost me 2 million taels, and if we expand the recruitment, I'm afraid I can't afford to recruit them! "Yang Gengai told the truth. For these henchmen of their own, there is nothing to say.

Xu Guangqi said: "Your Majesty, I heard that Your Majesty intends to divide the army into several ladders, with three levels?" The first level is the elite of death battle, which requires that you can fight in the field with the enemy, and even if you kill the last person, you are not allowed to retreat? The second level is the defensive army, which generally does not conduct field battles, but only defends the city? The third category is the township soldiers, the militia, who train in their leisure time and work in agriculture in peacetime, which is the reserve of the first two? ”

"This, indeed, now, in my new army, this is how it is carried out, the 20,000 new army I am talking about is the first category, those who require death fighting, and when the time comes, I will fight against the Eastern Prisoners, I am afraid that it will depend on these elites."

"Your Majesty, the minister heard that the selection of this elite soldier is very strict, and the training is even more strict, usually, one of several alternative soldiers can be selected, and the minister means that the proportion of this candidate soldier can be increased a little, for example, it was originally one of the three alternative soldiers, can it be increased to five and one person, so that many more alternative soldiers can be recruited...... As for whether they can enter the first level and become elites, this, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that the minister heard that the treatment of this candidate soldier and the first type of elite soldier is very different...... The reserve soldiers can basically only eat their stomachs, ...... the minister's meaning, I don't know if Your Majesty understands? Xu Guangqi explained.

Oh? What does Xu Guangqi mean? Is it to allow yourself to expand the base of this candidate soldier a little? Use elite treatment to attract others to be soldiers, of course, whether you can become elite is another matter, which can not only recruit more people but also save a lot of money, this, may be a good way.

"Master Sun, look, is Master Xu's method okay?" For military matters, Yang Reform still has to ask Sun Chengzong to see what Sun Chengzong says.

Sun Chengzong thought for a while and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this elite soldier was originally selected among many alternative soldiers, and this candidate soldier recruited a little more, this, there is no problem, indeed, the treatment of this candidate soldier and elite soldier, the gap between food and salary is very large, and it is not a problem to recruit more candidate soldiers, as for whether he can become an elite, this, depends on his own efforts and training." Sun Chengzong agreed with Xu Guangqi's method, this catastrophe is coming, there will definitely be peasant rebellion, this extraction of local youth, indeed, for reducing the power of peasant rebellion, great help, this earlier, Sun Chengzong and the emperor have discussed, now, has always supported this road.

"Well, since Master Sun also said that there is no problem, then, the matter is decided, Master Sun can reliably send people to the poorest counties in Shaanxi to recruit more candidate soldiers, is the amount? Let's double the current one. "Yang reformed this matter.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Sun Chengzong agreed.

"Uh...... By the way, the opening of the Yellow River and the irrigation of the Jing River into the fields were also merged into the resettlement disaster relief, and Master Xu also wrote about this matter in the plan. Yang Gai remembered this matter of Yutian, which had to be merged with immigration.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xu Guangqi agreed.

"Well, I look at this immigration matter, that's roughly it, the rest, it depends on how Master Xu arranges, I will summon the relevant ministers to Wenhua Hall to discuss this matter, this matter, as soon as possible, Master Xu will work hard." This matter is almost over, Yang reform is over, and the rest depends on Xu Guangqi and tomorrow to discuss with the ministers.

"The minister commands." Xu Guangqi agreed again.

…… A few henchmen left.

Wang Chengen saw that this business was finally over, so he cautiously said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this lunch has been delayed again, Your Majesty should eat something quickly, the queen should scold the slave again." ”

Speaking of eating, Yang Reform's stomach immediately growled, and Yang Reform realized that it was time to eat dinner, and this time was too busy.

Yang Reform ate dim sum indiscriminately, thinking, tomorrow he will have to decide with the ministers about the immigration, the matter of immigration, and after the end, he will have to talk to the ministers about the minting of silver coins.

Yang Gai, who was still gobbling up, immediately shouted: "Big companion, send someone to call the manager of the Baoquan Bureau, I have something to ask." "I thought of doing it immediately, Yang Reform was resolute and resolute, and he didn't want to delay it at all.

Wang Chengen was startled by the emperor's shout, and when he heard what the emperor said, he immediately agreed: "Obey, Your Majesty, the slave will send someone." ”

Sending someone to call the people from the Baoquan Bureau, Yang Gai calmed down again, thinking about what he still had to do.

"Companion, you say, I borrowed money from those princes, those who can borrow it, and those who can't pull it out?" The matter of this silver coin is related to silver, thinking of silver, Yang Reform remembered that he was ready to borrow reserve silver from his own princes and princes, this matter, it had to be done, the traffic of the Ming Dynasty, even if it was eight hundred miles urgent, to send his letter of borrowing money to the princes everywhere, it would take a while, a round trip, a month or two passed.

Wang Chengen was stumped by the emperor's question, this emperor was asking himself some things that he shouldn't say or couldn't say, either asking himself to add an official to Xu Guangqi, one of the three lessers, or asking himself how to borrow money from those princes. However, Wang Chengen quickly abandoned these thoughts, Wang Chengen has always been the emperor first in his heart, and others can only be behind, arrange the princes, as long as it is beneficial to the emperor, it is what he can do.

"Back to Your Majesty, this, it's not easy to say that the slave maid is not good, this arrangement of the vassal king, but it is a capital crime." After all, however, it is still necessary to give the emperor a preventive shot in advance.

"It's okay, just say it, I have something to bear for you." Yang Gengai wanted to hear what Wang Chengen, a native of the Ming Dynasty, thought of the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, and he had a bottom in his heart.

"The slave and maid said it, but what the slave and maid said is also a rumor in the market, if it is not true, Your Majesty should just listen to it casually."

"Well, let's talk about it, say it quickly." Yang urged the reform.

“…… Your Majesty, the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, this ...... How can I say it, if Your Majesty wants to borrow money from these vassal kings, no, Your Majesty, it seems that it should be said that it is a ...... of absorbing the prince" Wang Chengen just started and found that he seemed to have used the wrong word.

"Yes, that's right, big companion, it's not borrowing money, it's absorbing savings......" Yang Reform blamed himself, when he thought of those princes of the Ming Dynasty, he thought of fat pigs, thought of fat flowing oil, thought of making money, and forgot that he was a normal sucking of savings, which is essentially different from borrowing money.

“…… Your Majesty, since this is the case, the slave maid thinks that it is better to do this, and it is guaranteed that His Majesty can absorb a lot of money. Wang Chengen thought for a while before giving the emperor an idea, how to get the money of the princes.

“…… Say it. "Yang Reform has no impression of the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, let alone any connection, and there is no intersection, for these people, there are only some vague memories that can no longer be blurred, and the understanding of them, that is, the understanding of the 21st century, the first is fat, and the second is still fat............ Your Majesty, the slave maid thinks that Your Majesty can first write a letter, saying that now the imperial court is making a big effort to provide disaster relief, and the finances are tight! The treasury is short of silver, and I want the vassal kings to contribute some silver to the treasury, to save the difficulties of the Ming Dynasty and solve the hardships of the people in the world as the main point, and the silver is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, and the silver is not out of the silver, all of which are disregarding the safety of the people of the Zhu family and the Ming Dynasty, regardless of the Zhu family and the Ming Society, this, you have to write more strictly, the amount of the contribution of silver, can be written larger...... after the contribution of silver, the people of the world will definitely thank Yunyun...... "Wang Chengen arranged these princes of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also not ambiguous at all, This is to peel the skin of those princes and eat meat!

"And then?"

“…… Your Majesty, then, the slaves and maids thought that these princes would cry to Your Majesty that there was not much food left at home, and that there was no silver, or only a small part of the silver......

"This is absolutely certain, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to ask those princes for silver and ask them to donate money than to kill them, but here, I am afraid that there are still some wise princes, I am afraid that they will take the silver out......" Yang Gai concluded.

“…… Exactly, Your Majesty, there are indeed a few princes who have always had good names, such as King Zhou, King Tang, these few, if Your Majesty wants to ask them to raise tens of thousands of taels, it is estimated that there is no big problem,...... The slave and maid want to talk about this, it is very difficult to ask the vassal kings to raise donations, and the effect is not great, however, Your Majesty, you can write another letter at the same time, and tell the benefits of saving the silver in the bank, Your Majesty only needs to hint that as long as you save a sum of money in the bank, you can not donate the silver, and you can receive the interest on time in the future, presumably, these princes will definitely deposit the silver in your Majesty's bank. Wang Chengen's idea is very bad, to give the princes two ways, one is to accept the apportionment, the other is to deposit a sum of money to the emperor's bank, this count, no matter what, it is also cost-effective to save the money in the emperor's bank, in this way, the reserve silver of the emperor's bank, is considered to be there.

Yang Gengai thought for a while and said, "What if someone doesn't donate money and doesn't save money?" So what to do? "This is indeed a problem, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, don't expect to be so enlightened.

"This ...... Your Majesty, there is nothing, Your Majesty only needs to use this plan, I believe that most of the vassal kings understand what Your Majesty means, they will save money, or donate, it is not a problem to make up a million, and the rest, seeing Your Majesty's money bank, the money is really interested, and it will definitely rush to it, and there is no need for Your Majesty to urge, I believe that in Your Majesty's money bank, there will be more and more people saving money. Wang Chengen concluded that Wang Chengen had been involved in most of the emperor's secret deliberations, and knew everything about the emperor's money, so he had this idea.

Yang Reform thought about it for a while, and felt that it made sense, he didn't expect all the princes to donate or save money, just have most of them, as long as the first batch of people who saved money got the interest, presumably, the latter ones don't have to worry about themselves, put it in the cellar of his own house The silver will grow moldy, and put it in the emperor's bank, the silver will give birth to silver, and it will double in ten years, this attraction is not something that ordinary people can refuse.

"Well, that's right, Omemate, it's a really high idea, it's really good, so let's do it, and then it's time to write to my uncles, uncles, brothers, and brothers. Hahaha...... "Yang Reform is very happy, now, he can get a lot of money, and he can put the blood of the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty."
