Chapter 715: Do it yourself
"Why not?" Zhang Minghuang heard Gu Qianyu have this question, he thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, this official doesn't want you to take any credit." ”
Gu Qianyu said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the Holy Dragon Yan Dayue will give me a three-grade Hubu Shangshu, wouldn't that be a matter of offending people?" ”
Zhang Minghuang had a black line, "I don't think the emperor is so generous, right?" ”
Gu Yuqiao and Ning Shu on the side glanced at each other, snickered and lowered their heads to drink tea.
Gu Qianyu laughed before saying: "I'm joking, I'm afraid that there will be too much content in the report at one time, and not every measure to increase production can be implemented at that time." ”
"Yes." Zhang Minghuang thought so.
Just like when he presented the new type of farm tools to the emperor, after the emperor rewarded him and Lord An, he asked the Ministry of Industry to take charge of this matter.
But now, months have passed, and the government-run Iron Tool Department has been completed, and new agricultural tools and molds have been made. However, after the Ministry of Industry made the first batch, no one was responsible for selling this piece, and it was directly sold by Buddhism.
A few months later, the Ministry of Industry made a compromise, saying that the cost of this farm tool was too high, no one wanted to buy it, it was unrealistic, and it was a waste of state funds, and the Iron Weapons Department should be withdrawn.
For this reason, the emperor also issued an edict to reprimand Zhang Minghuang, almost dismissing him from office, but fortunately, someone said good things for him.
These are all recent events.
Thinking that he almost lost his position, Zhang Minghuang was still a little afraid.
Although he doesn't really want to be an official, but if he is reprimanded and removed by the emperor, he will lose face and will never be able to turn over!
Thinking of this, Zhang Minghuang looked at Gu Yuqiao with a smile and said to Gu Qianyu: "Your sister has the most ideas, why don't you ask her what she means?" ”
Gu Qianyu also smiled as a fox and looked at his sister: "That's right, sister, you have the right idea, how do you say I should report?" ”
Gu Yuqiao finished drinking the cup of tea, glanced at Ning Shu, and then asked slowly: "Judging from the matter of farm tools, there should be a partisan dispute in the court, and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu is definitely not the same as Lord An." ”
Zhang Minghuang said: "It should be like this, the one who helped me intercede is probably their opponent." ”
Gu Yuqiao pondered for a while, "In this way, if my brother reports this time, if the emperor rewards you with the Dragon's Heart Dayue, how will he distribute these measures next?" ”
Zhang Minghuang said: "It should be possible to let the household department follow up on this matter." But who knows if the specific household department will handle this matter well? Isn't this the lesson for me? ”
Gu Qianyu had a headache, "This place is far away in the sky, we are soft-spoken, and we are helpless about the partisan disputes in the court, but it is a pity that so many good measures to benefit the people cannot be implemented because of the struggle for the rights of those people." ”
Zhang Minghuang and Gu Qianyu were both very worried.
Gu Yuqiao said: "Then don't get involved with them, do it yourself." ”
The two of them were stunned, "Do it yourself?" ”
"What do you mean?"
Gu Yuqiao said with a smile: "I don't understand the government and politics, but I know that in the past ten years since the emperor unified the Nanzhu Continent, he has reformed many old systems very boldly. For example, the abolition of salt households, allowing salt to be bought and sold privately, and the taxation of merchants to 10% of income. ”
Zhang Minghuang was puzzled, "What are you talking about?" ”
Gu Qianyu raised his eyebrows and smiled, and lowered his voice, "Quietly say something disrespectful, although the emperor has this courage, isn't the matter of farm tools still foolish?" ”
