Although due to Chen Yonghua's repeated advice, Feng Xifan's case was not too widely involved in the end, Zheng Kezang's series of actions still shook the political scene in Dongning. biquge.info In order to appease people's hearts, under the construction of Zheng Xingying, Zheng Kezhang worshiped Zheng Cong as the auxiliary general, and Zheng Ming as the general Kuang Zheng, these two people naturally understood Zheng Kezang's intentions, so they took the encounters of Zheng Wen, Zheng Kuan, and Zheng Zhi as a warning, except for occasionally acting as a door god at the court meeting, Zheng Kezhang did not go to court even if he was summoned.

In addition to appointing the Zheng clan relatives and auxiliary ministers, Zheng Kezhang also made changes to the current title system in Dongning, in addition to the original three princes, marquis, and uncles of the Ming system, according to the system of the commander of the Wei Shiguan system, the commander of the same knowledge, the commander of the servant, the main thousand households, the deputy thousand households, the Wei Zhenfu, the hundred households, the trial hundred households, the Zhenfu and other nine knights.

Among them, the third rank of the prince and the uncle are all lords, and the commander makes the following nine ranks as lords, and the lords inherit and honor the lords. In addition to the marquis and earl who have been granted before, in the future, if you want to confer a knighthood, you must first start from the suppression, and pass it to the lord one by one, and the lord is not an absolute heir or a major crime, and it will always be the barrier of Dongning.

Although all the lords of Dongning do not grant land, since the suppression of the above is only according to the number of food and euphemism received by each lord level to convert the salary (note: the Song system, a household is actually sealed 300 wen a year), but because Zheng Kezhang announced that he is now facing off with the Qing captives across the sea, so the civil affairs and taxation are also considered military merits, so this time since Chen Yonghua and Zheng Xingying, a total of 132 dignitaries including two commanders, eleven commanders and envoys, and eighteen commanders and envoys have been canonized. This made the officials, who had no hope of becoming a lord, have a lot of hope for the future.

However, as a result, the official system of the guard that had been used in the Boy Scouts needed to be changed. Therefore, Zheng Kezhang took advantage of the situation to recruit the generals from Chaopin, and set up a general including the first grade, the general from the first grade, the deputy general from the second grade, the light car captain from the second grade, the cavalry captain from the third grade, the flying cavalry captain from the third grade, the cloud cavalry lieutenant from the fourth grade, the military cavalry captain from the fifth grade, the Zhaoxin captain from the fifth grade, the Chengxin captain from the sixth grade, the loyal military captain from the sixth grade, the loyal military captain from the seventh grade, the guard captain from the seventh grade, and the Xiuwu captain from the eighth grade. From the eighth rank of the Baoyi school captain, the ninth rank of the Jinyi school captain, from the ninth grade of the Dunwu school captain and other new military ranks. For example, Liu Guoxuan, if his official title is used in a new way, he will become General Jinwu (Ming Zheng Zheng Yipin military attache rank), Houjun Governor Fu Zuo Du Governor (Ming Dynasty Zheng Yipin military attache rank), Governor of the Water and Land Division (actual dispatch), Wuping Earl (title).

Since only the change in the name of the military rank did not affect Zheng Jun's old system of town generals, co-commanders, and foremen, this reform was carried out very smoothly, even if there were a few dissenting ones, when the eyes of the bigwigs were red by the new jue law, they quickly fell silent.

However, what made the civil and military forces of Taiwan even more exciting was that Zheng Kezhang announced that the civil and military official fields originally allocated to various families would be privately owned, at the cost that the tenants who originally rented the official land would be uniformly granted land by the officials and sent to Fengshan and Zhuluo to colonize, and the resulting labor gap would be made up by the officials with cheaper black slaves.

Of course, in this case, the officials would have to pay an extra salary of 100 officials, but Zheng Kezhang made up for it by charging a very small employment fee compared to the hired tenants on the pretext of renting black slaves - although some wealthy officials wanted to buy it out at once, because Zheng Kezhang hoped to use this as the first step to break the practice of the gentry not paying taxes, he naturally would not allow it - as for the shortcomings, Zheng Kezhang decided to make up for it by touching his pocket

"This year's drought is very severe." After finally pacifying the people of Dongning, Zheng Kezhang threw himself into the anti-drought work non-stop, knowing that the three-year drought that had spread throughout Taiwan, Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangxi, and southern Zhejiang since the 35th year of Yongli had been a natural killer that destroyed the last foundation of the Ming and Zheng regimes in a different time and space, so he could never take it lightly. "From now on, the whole Taiwan must be urgently mobilized, and all Wei towns and all departments of the water division should immediately go out to help the prefectures and counties build canals and dig deep wells, and the slave labor team under the Ministry of Industry should also put down the project of Fuzhou County Road first, and build dams and embankments to divert water into the canals in the large and small rivers such as Rapids Creek, Bazhang Creek, Turbidity Creek, Da Belly Creek, and Dagou Creek.

The officials of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Household nodded one after another, and Zheng Kezang's matter of abolishing the division of the six officials had already been boiling, and at this moment when it was related to his own future, no one wanted to leave a bad impression on Zheng Kezang.

"Is the household department ready to halve the silver this year and apportionment into the mu next year?"

Zheng Kezhang asked, at this time Yang Ying has been sent to the Chayan Division, and Hong Lei, the senator who is temporarily in charge of the household department and is responsible for the restructuring of the household department, naturally knows the reason for Yang Ying's bad luck, so he is busy reporting: "Qi to the grandson, the household department has done a good job of revising the fish scale book with the states and counties, and the tax can be collected according to the new regulations next year." ”

Zheng Kezhang breathed a sigh of relief, population is his first concern now, and eliminating Ding Yin and reducing hidden households is just the first step: "Since it is done, let's tell the whole Taiwan, after so many years of suffering, it is time to let the people take a breath." ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Kezang frowned and remembered a previous negligence: "Hong Qing, how much grain is stored in the Taifu Temple Warehouse and Taichang Temple Warehouse, is it enough for the officials, if it is necessary to release relief and peace after the catastrophe, is this food enough?" ”

Hong Lei's eyelids jumped wildly, Zheng Kezang's words made it difficult for him to parry, after all, he had only taken over not long ago, and some of the numbers had not yet been implemented, so he had to use his eyes to signal the officials behind him, and Cai Ji, a member of the outer Lang, stepped forward: "Shisun, Taifu Sicang and Taichang Sicang attacked and stored 85,120 stones, which can supply nearly 50,000 troops of the domain for half a year, but if it is released and leveled, I am afraid that it will not be enough, and it is necessary to immediately import grain from Siam, Annam and other places." ”

"Qing is the son of the first assistant official Cai Gonggong?" Zheng Kezhang asked, Cai Ji answered yes, and Zheng Kezhang nodded with satisfaction. "Sure enough, it's a family history." The officials on the side glanced at Cai Ji jealously, knowing that the other party had to decide on this lottery, so they listened to Zheng Kezang ask again. "Cai Qing, Qing thinks that if it is a relief, how much food needs to be prepared."

Cai Ji wrenched his fingers: "In fact, the immigrants who entered Taiwan last year and the people who moved to Tuntun had more or less a season's harvest, and the tenants of the original families also had some grain reserves, which could last until the summer and autumn harvests, so the key is the use of the armies of the domain." ”

Cai Ji means that the common people can survive the drought to some extent, and the key is that there is not much grain that can be handed over for sale, so it is not the most important thing to release relief and flatten the rice: "If the drought lasts until after the autumn harvest, then at least 200,000 stone rice noodles must be imported from overseas in case of emergency." ”

200,000 stones, this amount is obviously very large, but in fact it is far from enough in the face of three years of drought, even if the army is mobilized to help fight the drought and rush to plant drought-tolerant crops, this number still needs to be magnified several times before it is feasible, but it is obviously impossible to do this by relying on the empty household treasury.

"Then allocate 30,000 taels from the Limin Treasury to buy it first." After thinking about it, Zheng Kezhang could only dig money from his own pocket, but Rao was like this, and he couldn't fill this bottomless pit. "In addition, the army and civilians are called on to donate grain, and those who donate ten stones of grain will be sealed and pacified, and those who donate thirty stones of grain will be sealed to test 100 households, and those below 100 stones will be 100 households."

During the Han Dynasty, it was a common practice for the people to get officials, but in the Han Dynasty, there were people and officials, so Ke Ping on the side advised: "Shisun, those who are for the country are cautious and famous, if they just pay for food, they will be awarded to the lord, I am afraid that it will make the people happy in their lives, and second, it will also make the civil and military fall into the feeling of service, so how about changing it to commendation?" ”

"Ke Qing's words are the words of Lao Cheng Mouguo, which is very good." Zheng Kezhang hurriedly retracted his immature remarks, and then had a new idea in the blink of an eye. "Then use the Boy Scout as an example to cast silver and bronze second-class medals to protect the people's loyalty, where more than 10 stone and less than 50 stone will be awarded bronze medals, see the seven grades below the chamber to resist the ceremony, 50 stones and more than 100 stones below the silver medal, five grades below the praise and do not worship, officials will be given medals if they pay food, and those who meet the same product and wear the medal will be seated first."

"It's too grand." Zheng Xingying, who had been closing his eyes and playing soy sauce, suddenly spoke. "In this way, with a little financial resources, you can confront the government, I'm afraid it may not be a good thing, and I ask the grandson to consider it."

Zheng Xingying obviously felt that Zheng Kezhang was making a fuss, but Zheng Kezhang understood the importance of this drought-fighting campaign, in the case of the lack of financial resources of the Dongning regime, these rich grains of the people may be the last filth of land in the mountains of ten thousand people, but this will not be explained to Zheng Xingying and the officials, so Zheng Kezhang just smiled: "Participating in politics is serious, not to mention how many people can get the medal in the end, even if someone can get it, How many of them are new immigrants from Fujian and Yueqiong, and how many are old heroes who followed their ancestors back then? ”

Zheng Xingying's heart moved, and suddenly understood Zheng Kezang's abacus, it turned out that the people of Dongning were not rich, and there were not too many people who could donate ten stones of grain at once, let alone donate fifty stones at once, in this case, then Zheng Kezang's idea hit whose head was it, naturally it was the wealthy officials of Dongning, so the last of Zheng Kezang's previous promises was the real key.

Now that he understands Zheng Kezang's thoughts, Zheng Xingying naturally no longer persuades, but if he doesn't speak, it doesn't mean that others haven't figured out Zheng Kezang's thoughts, among which Zheng Bin, who was once implicated in the Zhu Jinzhen turmoil, is one: "Shisun, Dongning is the foundation of the revival of the Ming Dynasty, and this clan has always been kind to the clan. ”

"No need." Although Zheng Kezhang understood that Zheng Bin was taking revenge, Zheng Kezhang was unwilling to let the influence of the Ming family spread in Dongning. "Things haven't reached the point where they are out of control, and this clan is just taking precautions, so don't alarm the Ming Chamber for the time being." However, Zheng Bin's words reminded Zheng Kezang that one day Zheng Rou and a few of them were not well-behaved, so they had to use this excuse to teach a lesson or two. "But the rice shops everywhere still have to be calm," Zheng Kezhang commanded. "The price of rice may be slightly raised, but the supply must be open to avoid swaying people's will."

"The grandson said this very much." Zheng Kezang's cousin Zheng Yingping spoke as a member of the criminal department. "But you also need to be a little bit of a hoarder."

Zheng Kezhang sneered: "It depends on the means of the Inspection Division"
