"There is nothing to dare or not, Aiqing is the first assistant of the cabinet, I also know that Aiqing represents the interests of officials in the world, and there are many things that are also timid, the reason why I say this is just to let you know that since I did not let you resign from the position of the head of the household department, then Aiqing is still the Minister of Finance of the Ming Dynasty, so it is necessary to make his own contribution to the wealth of the country and the people."

Minister of Finance...... What a fresh term, Yang Yiqing smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty said that these old ministers know, but how to do it, please show Your Majesty."

"The business route lies in the rapid circulation of goods, the faster the circulation of goods, the faster the production capacity will naturally develop, then the first thing to do is to build roads, road repair, convenient transportation can naturally promote the transfer and circulation of goods, many transshipment costs are huge, so that the gains outweigh the losses of goods can also flow quickly."

"The minister understands, and in the future, he will allocate some silver to the Ministry of Industry every year to let the Ministry of Industry ......."

Zhu Houwei shook his head and said: "It's not impossible for officials of the Ministry of Industry to supervise the construction of official roads, but I feel that it is a little slow, my original plan for the road is to carry out a major repair of the official roads between all the prefectures in the world, and abandon the original potholed dirt roads and replace them with cement roads or asphalt roads!"

Yang Yiqing gasped!

The emperor's breath is loud and can break through the sky!

All the official roads between Fuzhou and Prefecture have been rebuilt, and cement is still used!

What kind of asphalt road Yang Yiqing doesn't understand, but listening to the emperor's tone, the cost of this asphalt road will definitely not be cheaper than the cement road, to put it simply, how much silver does it cost?

It is estimated that even if you sell the household for decades, it may not be enough, right?

Where is this a loser, this is already a loser......

"Does Yang Aiqing think it's too expensive?"

Yang Yiqing smiled bitterly: "Don't Your Majesty think it's big?" The minister knows His Majesty's ambitions, but Your Majesty, he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, how can he achieve it overnight? ”

"When did I say I was going to do it overnight?" Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "Building roads and learning is a hundred-year plan, but it is not something that can be done with a hot head, as for the price is indeed larger, but I feel that with the national strength of today's Ming Dynasty, it can be bearable, and I have also said that the long-term vision should be long-term, and the price of everything done today is for the future harvest, this is urgent, but if you don't do anything, you are doomed to achieve nothing, just like farmers farming, the fundamental purpose of their work in the field is also to harvest, there is no essential difference between the two."

Yang Yiqing was silent, no matter how reasonable the emperor said, no matter how big the pie was, he couldn't be moved by it, the poor man's thinking was the poor man's thinking, or that sentence, since he was still the head of the household department, then he couldn't let the household finance fall into crisis again not long after it had just improved.

"So be it." Zhu Houwei also knew that it was not so easy to let Yang Yiqing pluck his hair, so he smiled and said: "It is unrealistic to let the household department repair the official road in the world by itself, and Yang Aiqing will not be willing, so how about I make a bet with Yang Aiqing?"

"How to bet?" Yang Yiqing was about to say that he would not gamble, because he felt that this was the emperor digging a pit for himself again, but the reader had the arrogance of the reader, but the words changed when they came to his mouth.

"Simple! In the Ming Dynasty, Yang Aiqing can choose a place at will and hand it over to the Ministry of Industry to supervise the repair, and I will also choose a place, and we will build the road together to see if I repair it quickly or Yang Aiqing repairs it well. ”

Yang Yiqing was about to vomit depressed, where is this bet, this is clearly the emperor's other way to let the household pay money to build the road, and he didn't even need to ask to know that he was going to lose.

are all bureaucrats, Yang Yiqing has been rolling in the officialdom all his life, and he knows better than anyone else about the filth in the officialdom......

Of course, this is absolutely not to say that the officials of the Ministry of Industry are a group of corrupt officials from top to bottom, in fact, they are as black as crows in the world......

Officials are greedy for ink, and they have not been cut off since ancient times, and the emperor wants to pay a high salary to support his integrity, which is purely in vain in Yang Yiqing's opinion, but he can't question this kind of thing, otherwise he will be sprayed into a sieve with saliva.

For the cabinet, Emperor Jiajing did not trust officials from the bottom of his bones, but Emperor Jiajing was an extremely smart emperor, he knew how to avoid the important and light, and he knew how to fight against foreign officials.

This is the most terrible place, Emperor Jiajing grasped military power and financial power but did not restrict the rights of officials themselves, so that officials in the world are like frogs in warm water, although uncomfortable but not unbearable.

The most uncomfortable thing in the Manchu Dynasty is the imperial history of the six branches and thirteen provinces, in the Ming Dynasty official news, no matter who is impeached, whether it is right or wrong, they can rush up and spray wildly regardless of it, because it is political qualifications!

Therefore, the Yanguan is humble and powerful, and there is even a saying that he will not change the waiter, because even the Shangshu of the various ministries will not give color to the affairs of each department, and the Yanguan has also become one of the fastest official positions to climb the Qingyun Road.

However, in the Jiajing Dynasty, the speech official was completely planted, because Emperor Jiajing adopted an attitude of not arguing and completely ignoring the demands of the speech official, and ignoring the excerpts of the speech official whether it was right or wrong, you sprayed on the main hall, no matter what you sprayed, Emperor Jiajing should not have heard it......

The emperor has to rely on civil officials to govern the world, and officials also need the emperor to realize their political demands, and the relationship between the two is complementary to each other.

Now the emperor treats the Yanguan as a fart, how can the Yanguan not despair, the current situation is that Hanlin does not want to become a Yanguan after leaving the Hanlin Academy, and the Yanguan has begun to actively seek release or prepare for promotion, and then break away from the group of Yanguan......

Now that the emperor proposed a gambling contract between the royal family and the household processing department, it was obvious that he clearly told him that Yang Yiqing was counting on the Ministry of Industry to supervise and repair the official road, and in the end it must be rampant corruption, what will happen then?

With the emperor's temperament of punishing the big and letting go of the small greed, it is estimated that the heads of another group of officials will become sacrifices.

But what did the emperor know about the consequences? Why?

Compassion is not in charge of the army, righteousness is not in charge of wealth, in fact, it can be said that benevolence is not in charge of the country, but the officials all hope that the emperor they serve is Song Renzong, because only a benevolent emperor like Song Renzong is the prosperous age of literati.

The emperor who made the hundred officials go to the court like the execution ground like the Hongwu Emperor is definitely not the holy monarch in the eyes of the officials, but the Hongwu Emperor expelled the Tartars and restored the Hanjia rivers and mountains, even if the officials no longer liked it, they could not deny the merits of the Hongwu Emperor.

"If I say that the profits that can be generated by this tobacco are enough to build all the roads under the Great Tomorrow, Yang Aiqing can be trusted?"

Yang Yiqing was speechless, I believe you are a ghost......
