Chapter 466: Heads Rolling
The capital after the autumn is full of slaughter. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Of the more than 2,300 people detained in the prison, only more than 100 did not pass the review, and the evidence of these more than 100 people is not so conclusive, so they continue to be detained. The others were all pulled to the entrance of the vegetable market, and within a day they were killed with rivers of blood and heads.
The ordinary people in the capital are talking about it again, and this phenomenon has become more and more common in recent years.
"The last time this scene was when I asked those Jiangnan businessmen and the Donglin Party! More kills than this time. ”
"All of them should be killed!"
"It's not that the time hasn't come!"
This time, it was not only those corrupt officials who were beheaded, but also those military attaches in Liaodong Town, as well as some dog-legged family members. A large number of people were killed, and a large number of people were not killed, and all of them were exiled to Heilongjiang for labor reform.
For the people of the capital, it is no surprise that the emperor killed some people.
Zhu Youxiao's behavior is not good, that is, he has subverted the national system of a country and created a new dynastic system.
The original Ming Dynasty was a feudal dynasty that represented the interests of the landlord class. Although the interests of the common people were taken into account at the beginning, they essentially relied on the landlords to maintain their rule. Zhu Youxiao, on the other hand, betrayed the interests of the landlord class, and at the same time attacked the private capitalist class and developed the state-owned capital system.
The Ming Dynasty, which basically completed the reform, only put on the previous shell, and the internal system was already completely different. Vested interests have also been radically subverted, reversing the problem of insufficient state finances.
The current imperial court is really rich, especially after the seizure of those Jiangnan financial oligarchs. The financial oligarchs in Jiangnan have accumulated wealth for two hundred years, and all of them have been collected by the imperial court. At the same time, the state-owned capital consortium has also taken over the plate of these Jiangnan financial oligarchs, and the profits created every year are extremely terrifying.
In the fifteenth year of the Apocalypse, the largest expenditure is still on infrastructure and education.
Water conservancy construction, road construction, and school construction, the imperial court is willing to spend money. After so many years of development, the scale of the Normal College established by Zhu Youxiao has become very large, and primary and secondary school teachers have been trained in batches.
Six-year compulsory education is being spread throughout the country, and primary schools are being built one after the other.
A country will never say that it is poor because of education, so Zhu Youxiao is also very concerned about the development of education, especially basic primary education.
Moreover, this is compulsory education, and it is a social obligation that every child of Ming age must undertake. Compulsory education is also mandatory, and if you don't come to school, you can pay a fine, and you must pay a fine of one yuan. At the same time, both men and women are required to attend school.
At the same time, the cost of education was paid for by the imperial court.
The primary school teachers are well paid, with a salary of 10 silver dollars per month, and housing is guaranteed by the Ministry of Education.
Although the salary is good, the graduation requirements of the normal college are relatively high.
The Chinese language must first pass the test, and at the same time, it has been instilled for a long time in terms of ideology, and those chaotic ideas cannot be brought into the primary school.
In terms of educational materials, Confucianism has not been completely abandoned.
In the future, Confucianism will still have to govern the country, but in the compulsory education system, Confucianism no longer enjoys priority. The national imperial examination is still held every three years, but it has little to do with public schools. To participate in the imperial examination, after the end of the six-year compulsory education, go to a private school.
You can also become an official through the imperial examination, but the number of admissions has not changed. However, in the Ming Dynasty at this time, the number of civil servants had increased exponentially. After all, the Ming Dynasty in the past adopted a model of local autonomy, and there may only be a dozen civil servants in a county. Nowadays, there are not only county governments, but also township governments, and village committees at the village level. At the same time, there are various departments in a county, such as the police station, the civil affairs bureau, the industrial and commercial bureau, the national taxation bureau, the local taxation bureau, the education bureau, the water conservancy bureau, the forestry bureau, and so on.
Most of the civil servants were created from the new public education system. However, Confucianism does have a strong social education significance, so the imperial examination was not abolished, but was still held every three years, and some Confucian literati were admitted to specialize in education.
But those imperial examination officials, many departments are not allowed to enter. For example, the management departments in charge of economics and industry are entrusted to professionals.
There are also court officials, who are not selected from among Confucianism.
Today, the education system established by Zhu Youxiao not only provides free education for six years, but also sets up many scholarships for middle schools and universities. Although the cost is relatively large, the imperial court still has money for education. In particular, the raiding activities got a lot of money, so that Zhu Youxiao had enough money to engage in education.
Secondary schools and universities are fee-free, and teachers' colleges are tuition-free, and there is also a living allowance, so that those students who cannot afford to pay the tuition fees can also have a good choice.
In the 15 years of the Apocalypse, the water conservancy construction activities have reached the largest scale in the history, and the state finance has invested 600 million silver dollars, and at the same time, the local government has also invested a lot of money.
The results are still very remarkable, and the agricultural production conditions in the various reform provinces have been markedly improved. Although natural disasters continue and the climate continues to cool down, the resistance of agricultural production activities to natural disasters has been greatly enhanced.
At the same time, water conservancy construction has also increased employment and promoted the development of the local economy.
In these years, there is no problem of foreign investment in China. There is no capital flight, and this money is still circulating internally.
In the past, in the era of agricultural globalization, China continued to obtain gold from all over the world, but after death, a large amount of gold was brought underground, causing the problem of deflation.
Under the economic deflation, the industry of tomb robbers was stimulated to dig up the gold underground to solve the problem of deflation. In Europe, spices were used as currency, and the reduction of spices stimulated piracy. Chinese tomb robbers had the same financial function as European pirates.
Now the problem of deflation in the Ming Dynasty has been solved by Zhu Youxiao, because Zhu Youxiao issued the Apocalypse Treasure Banknote. The Apocalypse Treasure Banknote is a banknote that is pegged to silver, but is not exchanged for circulation. It can be exchanged externally, but the Ming Dynasty is also a trade surplus country, and the annual inflow of silver far exceeds the amount of silver exchanged.
In addition, in those provinces that have not been reformed, it can also be exchanged, but there are not many people who will go to the southwest to exchange silver dollars in large quantities.
At this time, the central government's finances are good, so naturally it will not print money like crazy, and the Apocalypse Treasure Bank is very strong. Although the issuance of Apocalypse Treasure Banknotes has not reached the state of crazy inflation, it is a piece of cake to solve deflation.
In the fifteenth year of the Apocalypse, the imperial court asked the Central Bank of the Ming Dynasty to adopt a monetary easing policy, and the Apocalypse Treasure Bank entered the category of acceptable inflation and began to issue a large number of loans to the people.
This has brought the economic development of the 15 years of the Apocalypse to prosperity, and not only the state capital is investing a lot, but also the private capital is also investing a lot.
A lot of investment has led to a lot of jobs, and the labor force has been continuously released from the countryside. The growth of industry has become the main force of economic growth.
In such an economic environment, ordinary people don't have to worry about not having enough to eat. And it has also become much freer, unlike before, you had to pay land taxes, serve forced labor, and travel to prove it. Nowadays, the flow of population can be relatively smooth, but the hukou system is still not so easy to settle in different places, and you must work in one place for more than three years to settle down. If it's an area where immigration is encouraged, settling down is very simple. The situation in each province is different, and if the household registration is completely opened, the country will fall into chaos.
The reform has also brought a strong impetus to economic development, first of all, the change of the system is also conducive to the development of industry and commerce, and at the same time, there is no resistance to the release of the population from the countryside. In addition, the progress of technology has given economic development something to develop.
Railways are a hot spot for investment, and railway investment is being hotly discussed everywhere at this time.
The railway network in the north has been built a lot, and a network has been formed. The railway network in the south has also begun to enter the stage of large-scale exploration and construction.
Zhu Youxiao had just copied the military attaches in Liaodong Town, and as Fujian, Guangdong, and other places entered the stage of reform, the pig killing activities against those maritime merchants also began.
After years of covert investigation, the factory guards have locked up hundreds of large families that have been engaged in smuggling activities for a long time, which will all be on the pig killing list.
