Chapter 480: A Brief Conflict (Part I)

After the first patient was successfully cured, all doubts disappeared. Big belly disease is a terminal disease of this era, a terminal disease that cannot be cured at all. But in this hospital, there are really cured patients. Actions speak louder than words!

Jiangnan is a high-incidence area of big belly disease, and there is an endless stream of patients who follow. But the vast majority were closed to the concierge because of the limited number of beds in the hospital, which could only accept 30 patients at a time. These 30 people are not admitting patients until they are discharged. At this time, the patient's family panicked, and those who had demonized the hospital became the target of the family's attack.

Fortunately, after a period of time, a new rule came out of the hospital, patients who are not in strict condition, after being diagnosed, can go to the hospital to purchase some medicines to take, may not be able to be cured quickly, but according to the doctor's instructions to treat, the possibility of cure is very great, because of the storage of this hospital, many people's living habits have been slowly affected. Pay attention to hygiene in life, do not drink raw water, wash hands before eating and after using the toilet, etc.

More than a month after coming to Jiangnan to take office, Chen Xie has not made a clear decision, and the newspaper war is still going on, but it is not as intense as before. Ruan Dacheng, who has repeatedly written articles in newspapers, feels that his expression is not bad, and he has the courage to ask to see Chen Xie, accompanied by his brother Yang Wencong.

Ruan Dacheng didn't wait too long, but after a cup of tea, he was led into Chen Xie's study. I didn't see the princess this time, only Chen Xie was alone in the study. Seeing the two of them coming in, Chen Xie smiled and said, "Yuanhai." I thought you should have come early, but I didn't want to wait until today. Ruan Dacheng blushed a little when he said this, he actually wanted to come a long time ago, and Yang Wencong persuaded him.

These two are really working hard, in order to help Chen Xie and win over a group of literati, some articles come out in every issue of the newspaper, and they sing against those people in the Fushe. In addition, in the Jiangnan literary scene over the years, because of the relationship of interests, Shilin is not monolithic. There are also many literati who are dissatisfied with the Donglin Restoration Society. Historically, Shilin held high the banner of the Restoration Society. Now the influence is far less than it used to be.

The two of them were a little nervous, waiting for Chen Xie's next words, and they didn't dare to ask for benefits. Chen Xie looked at them and said with a smile: "Okay." I know what you're here for. Something is ready for you. Round sea. Songjiang Prefect, Longyou, Huating Prefect. Let's go back and get ready to take office. The official document from Jingshi arrived three days ago, and I don't have time to deal with it here. ”

Chen Xie said this, and they listened to it like this. In fact, it is a matter of Chen Xie's words, and it is not difficult to send someone to call it. When Ruan Dacheng heard this, he was stunned, he didn't expect the reward to come so quickly, this thigh is too powerful. Not only was his own matter solved, but Yang Longyou's matter was also solved. This efficiency is really high, it's only been a few days. He didn't know that after the last time he saw him, Chen Xie went to operate this matter. I sent a letter to the emperor of Kyoshi, reporting what I wanted to do and where I needed it. Zhu Youzhen was very face-saving and agreed to everything. The reply also told him that the current secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu was the result of Yang Tinglin's appointment and Zhu Youzhen's exception. Zhu Youzhen also said in the letter that because of the effective relief, the northwest and the Central Plains have gradually settled down, and although there are still some thieves making trouble, it is no longer enough to cause trouble. Only Sichuan's Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai are still making trouble, although Hong Chengchou is also very capable, but after all, he is not as efficient as Chen Xielai.

Chen Xie replied that it was enough to have Hong Chengchou, and the key was relief. As long as there is food to eat, the people will not rebel. So, the key issue is still the financial issue. In order to solve the financial problem, it is unrealistic to rely on land alone, and it is necessary to change this single model, lest a natural disaster strike, and the warehouses of the household department can run away with mice.

Chen Xie paid money to help the emperor to help the victims, which seems to be a very stupid thing today. After all, everyone knows Shen Wansan's story, but that's what Chen Xie did. The reason is naturally Zhu Youzhen's trust, thinking that Chen Xie will not and cannot seek the Ming Dynasty, Chen Xie's strength is enough, but there is no time to go against the emperor's will. Such a courtier, if you suspect him again, then this emperor will be too much of a failure. Therefore, as long as Chen Xie's impeachment was played, the emperor basically replied to the vote, and then sarcastically said: "When Jiannu ravaged Jingshi and thieves were rampant in the Central Plains, where was Qing?" ”

Zhu Youzhen, who was in a good mood, didn't plan to be angry with these people. With one mind to cooperate with Chen Xie, to change the state of Daming's finances, he has to wait for the essential change of this matter, and then he can promote other innovations. If you want to talk about this commercial tax, according to Chen Xie's meaning, 30 taxes and one is a joke, and the commercial tax in Jiangnan and other three provinces will implement a new regulation of 10 taxes and 1 tax.

When the results of the trial in the three provinces south of the Yangtze River are good, it is not too late to promote it nationwide.

Ruan Dacheng and Yang Yuncong didn't know these things, they only knew that Chen Xie had solved their future problems, so they were naturally overjoyed. Thank you again and again, Chen Xie accepted it calmly, it is useless for this kind of person to tell them anything else, and he is not at ease if you don't accept it.

Before leaving, Chen Xie explained: "When you take office, you can put other things aside first, and it is necessary to cooperate with the Ship Department to do things well." Of all the things in Jiangnan, only this matter has the fastest effect, and His Majesty is also the most concerned. ”

With these words at the bottom, both of them know what's going on. This is a help to the Emperor's inner library. Zhu Youzhen has also learned badly now, and the tariffs of Fujian and Shandong will not go to the household department, and will go directly to their own internal treasury. This is actually not a good phenomenon, but it can only be like this at this stage, Chen Xie didn't say anything about it. Zhu Youzhen pursues efficiency, and the efficiency of doing so is indeed higher.

After a series of wars both externally and internally, Zhu Youzhen's basic trust in Wenchen has collapsed. There is no doubt that this is a comparison, especially after Ding Qirui took over Chen Xie's position, the situation of suppressing thieves has undergone new changes, which makes Zhu Youzhen very annoyed. Tiqi directly gave Shao Chunjie to take it down, and went to Beijing to ask for the guilt. Cleaning up Wenchen, Zhu Youzhen is not soft at all. To deal with military generals, there is Chen Xie, an evil god, and the current military generals are also very honest. Zuo Liangyu is so good, he has been killed, who else dares to mess around?

After a period of public opinion, the new commercial tax system and the advisory bureau system were officially promulgated and published in full in Ming Pao. The new tax amount is 10 taxes and 20 silver dollars per year, and those who are eligible to participate in the election of the Consultative Council are eligible to participate in the election of the Consultative Council. Under the election system of the councillor, one out of 100 people who meet the criteria is elected, and if the annual business tax amount reaches 10,000 silver yuan, they are automatically qualified as members of the local council. In order to punish a member of the council, he must first produce evidence and submit it to the provincial advisory bureau for examination and approval, and only after confirming that the disqualification of the councillor is correct can he be punished. After the new regulations were introduced, the whole Jiangnan was a sensation. Other rights may not be very attractive to parliamentarians, and people may not take these words seriously to monitor the government. But this legal privilege is too attractive for the average businessman. According to this new regulation, after obtaining the qualifications of local councilors, they will participate in the election of provincial councilors, and once they have obtained the qualifications of provincial councilors, the emperor must send factory guards to investigate the case if they are convicted.

Almost overnight, the entire Jiangnan topic was this advisory board. People in the business world are going crazy with excitement, and they can't wait for the election to start tomorrow. The people in the officialdom panicked, and according to the statute of this advisory bureau, in the future, if the local officials were not satisfied with what they had done, the advisory bureau would discuss it at a meeting, and after the majority of the people had reached the agreement, the local advisory bureaus could impeach the local officials. Of course, the premise is that there is evidence, and without clear evidence, impeachment is invalid.

In fact, the problem of this evidence is not too difficult to solve. The reason is very simple, the power of the grassroots level of government at all levels in the Ming Dynasty was actually in the hands of the Xu officials, the gentry group and the clans. Officials rely on these people to do things. At this time, it is not difficult to see that the vast majority of businessmen in the Ming Dynasty have a gentry background. Therefore, if you want to engage in capitalism, you still have to see these people make trouble. They have culture, capital, and social influence.

If these people are dealt with by pure violence, who will do business in the end? You can only coerce and lure together, and stick and carrot together. There is another way, that is, to engage in state capitalism, and history has proved that there are many problems with how to do this. When the management of an enterprise becomes a bureaucrat, the enterprise deteriorates quickly.

Now Chen Xie can't manage so much for the time being, let's do things first and then talk about anything else. After the official introduction of the advisory bureau system, the entire Jiangnan literary circle was angry and dumb. It took ten years of hard study for a scholar to gain social status, but he was easily seized by a group of businessmen. How can they endure this? After a short silence, I was surprised to find that only a small part of the reading was really noisy, and more than 100 people ran to the door of Ming Pao to block the door.

As a result, Tang Mu, the person in charge of Ming Pao, came out, this guy is no longer a knife and pen clerk, and is now the deputy editor-in-chief of Ming Pao. As soon as he stopped at the door, Tang Mu said: "If you want to contribute, you are welcome to do so, and if you have a reason, you will see it in the newspaper." But if you want to make trouble, you have to ask Daming if the law agrees. A student of the Restoration Society stood up and said loudly: "Chen Sihua is a businessman, corrupting Gangchang, and Ming Pao is Chen Sihua's mouthpiece, everyone rushed in and smashed this newspaper that speaks for the unscrupulous." ”

A group of soldiers appeared in time to block the door. The scholars were blocked outside, and they couldn't rush in. Someone in the crowd shouted: "Shi, you must not be Hongyi, there is a long way to go." Jiangnan scholars, for the Ming Dynasty, for the etiquette, for the Gangchang, everyone rushed in. Smash the heads of these dog thieves! ”

This time, this group of scholars went crazy, and shouted hoarsely and everything, "For the sake of the saints, continue to learn, and open peace for all generations...... All kinds of slogans were mixed together, and everyone rushed forward together, without noticing at all, at this time, a group of people with scarves rushed diagonally opposite, and there were many people dressed as ordinary market people.
