A month later, the city of Beijing has not changed much on the surface. Ordinary people can do whatever they want, but if you observe carefully, you will find that there are many arrogant imperial relatives in the capital of Nuoda......

After the loss of these people, the business transactions in Beijing have obviously been greatly affected.

At this moment, Wei Zheng, who had been busy for a month, finally had his free time, planning to take a good look at the Forbidden City, which had gathered the essence of hundreds of years.

Looking at the tall and majestic walls of the Forbidden City in front of him, Wei Zheng wanted to ask Emperor Chongzhen why he liked to lock himself up in the Forbidden City like a prison so much.

Just as Wei Zheng was admiring the various palaces in the Forbidden City all the way, a very rapid footstep sounded directly behind him.

Afterwards, Wei Zheng saw Zhou Shuyuan's slightly excited figure.

In order to restore the prosperity of Beijing City and ensure the stability of Beijing City. As soon as Emperor Chongzhen left the city of Beijing, Zhou Shuyuan and the entire governor's palace of Shanxi, under the order of Wei Zheng, moved to the city of Beijing and took over the city......

In addition, Sun Chengzong, the chief of staff, also rushed to Beijing City to take over the recruitment and training of troops, so that Wei Zheng could be a hands-off shopkeeper and slowly became idle.

Looking at Zhou Shuyuan, who came in a hurry, Wei Zheng asked directly: "Military advisor, what happened?" ...... in such a hurry."

"It's a good thing......" Zhou Shuyuan replied without thinking about it.

"After statistics, the long hair for a month in the relocation of the capital. We are deployed in the Haw Par Army at the major gates of Beijing. A total of 6,850,000 taels of silver were received for leaving the city. Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces sell grain at sky-high prices. also earns almost three and a half million taels of silver......"

"According to statistics, our direct income from the relocation of the capital carried out by the imperial court has exceeded 10 million taels."

"In addition, we have acquired one hundred and sixty-five sets of mansions in Beijing that have been given by the imperial court for hundreds of years...... 5.69 million acres of fertile land abandoned by the emperor's relatives and important ministers in the Beizhili area were recovered...... Of course, there is also a large amount of grain and other materials that cannot be taken away by these imperial relatives and important ministers of the imperial court, and if it is counted as silver, one and a half million taels of silver, it will definitely not be ...... less."

"Lord Wang. This time, our Haw Par Army is making a lot of money again. Not to mention too much, the cash silver that comes from the income is enough to make up for the heavy losses of our Tiger and Leopard Army in the Liaodong battlefield and the Shanxi battlefield, and there is still a lot of surplus? ”

After finally knowing the specific harvest of his trip to Beijing, the smile on Wei Zheng's face became even stronger.

After taking a deep breath, he directly opened his mouth and sighed: "Now it seems that this king's trip to Beijing is not wrong...... Strategist, now that the results have come out. Then our next task is to dispose of these results as much as possible......"

Speaking of which. Wei Zheng's face, which was still shrouded in a smile just now, became stern at this moment.

After taking a deep breath, he continued: "The first thing is to completely take over the Northern Zhili, establish the Northern Zhili Governor's Office, and ensure that all the towns in the Northern Zhili are under the jurisdiction of our Tiger and Leopard Army......"

"Second, immediately dispose of more than 100 sets of mansions vacated in Beijing, after the departure of the imperial relatives and important ministers of the imperial court in the city, the commerce of Beijing has been greatly affected, and the newly established Governor's Mansion of Beizhili must do its best to attract investment...... To put it bluntly, it is to attract all the rich people from all over the world to Beijing City, buy houses, build shops, and promote the development of Beijing City...... In a word, the king must see the results within two months...... "Third, the newly established Governor's Office of the Northern Zhili must distribute all the terra nullius within a month, and increase investment in the construction of water conservancy to ensure that the sowing in a few months will not be affected......

"Fourth, thank you for the completion of the matter, the military advisor must form the structure of the Northern Wang's Mansion within a month, based on the Shanshan Governor's Mansion. Only in this way can the Beiwang Mansion better manage the five provinces of Shanxi, Shaanxi, Shandong, Beizhili and Liaodong. ”

After the orders were finished, although Zhou Shuyuan received the order, he did not leave. Not only that, but the excited face showed a very embarrassed expression.

Seeing this, Wei Zheng's brows furrowed, and he subconsciously asked, "Strategist, are there any difficulties?" ”

Zhou Shuyuan nodded in affirmation: "There must be difficulties, and they are very big...... One of the biggest problems is people. Our original Shanxi Governor's Office, which managed the two provinces of Shanxi and Liaodong, was already very difficult, and there were not many people to manage the two provinces of Beizhili and Shandong......"

"Up to the current position, although the imperial court has already placed the two provinces under the rule of our Tiger and Leopard Army. However, the real administration of the localities, including those prefects and prefectural orders, was still the officials appointed by the imperial court. We just want to replace them, and no one replaces them......"

"Although the imperial court has crowned the prince as the northern king of the Ming Dynasty, he can set up the northern palace on his own, and at a certain time, it has attracted many scholars and low-level officials who have encountered a wall in the imperial court. However, this amount is very rare after all, and in a short period of time, it will not play any role in our takeover of Beizhili and Shandong and the formation of the Beiwangfu. ”

"So if you want to solve the few problems you just raised in a short period of time, we must solve the problem of lack of people in the palace?"

Under Zhou Shuyuan's explanation, Wei Zheng's brows didn't know when they wrinkled into a big Sichuan character.

Under Zhou Shuyuan's gaze, he asked directly: "How many people are you missing, and who are they?" ”

Zhou Shuyuan, who already knew the current situation of the palace well, blurted out without thinking about it: "If you want to change all the civil and military officials above the seventh grade in Beizhili and Shandong provinces, plus the formation of the Beiwang Palace, I need at least 2,000 people here." Of course, even if I don't make a big deal out of the officials of the two provinces and only solve some urgent problems, I will have at least 600 people......"

"As for the people I want, most of them are used to handle copywriting and serve as low-level officials. So, these people must have been educated, and of course, if they have experience as officials, that's even better. ”

"So many ......" Faced with this number, Wei Zheng also began to make difficulties.

Just when Wei Zheng frowned, thinking about a solution. Zhou Shuyuan's voice reached Wei Zheng's ears again.

"Dashuai, to solve this problem, I have a solution here. It's just that this method is very risky, and there are still very big hidden dangers......"

Wei Zheng did not hesitate, and asked directly: "What is the solution, as long as it can solve the problem, it is worth taking the risk." As for the hidden problem, after saying it, this king may have a solution. ”

After getting Wei Zheng's affirmation, Zhou Shuyuan said directly......

"Lord Wang, my solution is to reappoint a large number of low-level officials who are unwilling to move south with the imperial court and still remain in Beijing. It's just that, after all, these officials are all from the imperial court, and we don't know about them. If we rashly reuse them, I am afraid that a large number of idle people will be mixed in with them, and even hidden spies in the imperial court, who will take the opportunity to penetrate into our Haw Par Army......"

Compared with the worry on Zhou Shuyuan's face, Wei Zheng's face quickly flashed with excitement.

Facing Zhou Shuyuan, he asked directly: "How many of these people are there, who are they, and what did they do before the imperial court moved the capital?" ”

Zhou Shuyuan hurriedly replied: "Lord Wang, I remember you said that among all the civil and military officials in our Ming Dynasty, there are two types of officials who are the poorest. One is the military generals of the Ming Dynasty, and the other is these low-level officials who still remain in Beijing. ”

"These people do the most things, but they can only get a very meager income from the imperial court, and there is no other income. In this case, they will have just enough income to support their families......"

"Before the imperial court moved the capital, they could still live a stable life in the capital. However, once they followed the imperial court to Nanjing, they were greeted by a hopeless future. ”

"Because, they can't be like the important ministers of the imperial court, holding a large amount of silver, they can buy a new family business in Nanjing, where every inch of land is valuable......"

"Since it is a hopeless future to go south to Nanjing with the imperial court, these officials can only continue to stay in Beijing. After all, they still have a family business of their own in Beijing, and they still have a future to think about if they stay in Beijing......"

"From what I know, these people do everything. There are those from the six departments of the imperial court, and there are those from various yamen in the capital...... All of them add up, there are definitely thousands of people. ”

"If we can make use of these people, we can definitely solve the current shortage of people. It's just that I haven't thought of a specific solution to the problems and huge hidden dangers here? ”

In Wei Zheng's eyes, these people can definitely be called talents for himself and the Haw Par Army.

Because, they have been low-level officials for several years, or even decades. As long as they have good conduct, have real talents, and give them a development platform, they can definitely soar to the sky.

Because, there are only three kinds of officials who can be at the bottom for such a long time.

One is a person who does nothing, and the other is a type of person who has real talent and real learning, but has no relationship with the above and cannot be promoted. As for the last category, there are people who are mediocre and content with the status quo.

In Wei Zheng's view, among these three kinds of people, except for the first one, the other two kinds of people have a great role for themselves, and the key is how to use them and how to kick out those who are inactive.

As for the hidden dangers mentioned by Zhou Shuyuan, Wei Zheng can be sure that there are absolutely them. However, Wei Zheng has a way to solve these hidden dangers......
