"Re-measure the number of degrees, and all monks who do not have degrees must return home!"

"And the temples and Taoist temples who pretend to be monks who have no degree to stay and defraud the people of incense money will be punished!"

"Now that the powerful bureaucrats have almost released the slaves, it's time for the Buddhist temples and Taoist temples to release some of the people controlled by them!"

Since Zhang Gui did not plan to continue to be a feudal landlord, he naturally would not let others continue to be feudal landlords.

Even under the guise of Buddhism, it is not possible to be a feudal landlord.

What's more, before Zhang Gui returned to Beijing, when he went to the south to quell the rebellion, he also saw how the monks and Taoists resisted the new policy of changing the law.

This made Zhang Gui determined to rectify the Buddhist temple and Taoism after returning to Beijing.

Because Zhang Gui wanted to make more Han people become free people, and then participate in labor, so as to provide labor resources and consumption for him as a capitalist in the future.

Tianqi is the largest landlord in the Ming Dynasty and the largest boss of the major government-run industries, and he does not want the people who could have brought him taxes to become a monk who is not engaged in production, so he said:

"If you want to rectify it, you can rectify it, I'm too lazy to care, just don't bother me to study new equipment!"

"Yes!"

Tianqiyi really likes to be a scientific research worker, just like Li Yu likes to write lyrics, Song Huizong likes to paint, and Emperor Jiajing likes alchemy, and even more obsessed.

Of course, he has not yet reached the point of abandoning the government;

The second is to deliberately pretend to be a delegation of power that only likes to study skills and does not like to intervene in the government and politics, but also to be able to support the reform of the law and protect themselves, so that the conservatives can focus the main contradictions on the reformist ministers such as Zhang Gui and Han Yi.

That's why Apocalypse said don't bother him to study.

"Destroying the Buddha, and thus releasing more people to increase the money and grain taxes for the imperial court, is naturally the right thing to do. But what if it causes chaos? ”

"Many people are deeply influenced by Buddhism, especially some cults have also formed their own forces in the name of Buddhism or Taoism, and they have used this to manipulate the transportation and salt trafficking."

"Rao is responsible for tax collection, doesn't the West Factory also need to use many non-governmental forces to investigate taxes, and how many of these non-governmental forces are not related to Buddhism?"

And after Zhang Guiyu told the Minister of Policy about his thoughts to the Minister of Planning, Yuan Keli raised his concerns again, and said: "Therefore, the contemptible people are worried, once they start to rectify, they are afraid that they will affect the lotus flower and drive the lotus root, causing the people to revolt." ”

Zhang Gui smiled slightly and asked: "Is Otsuka Zai afraid of the people's upheaval, or does he think that the reform of the law should end here, leaving a pure land for the world's corporal doctors who are unwilling to accept the new policy, and giving them a chance to make a comeback?" ”

Yuan Keli seemed to be grabbed by Zhang Gui's question, and his expression became unnatural for a while, and he said: "I don't mean this, but I don't know whether I should do it or not, Uncle Guo said such a reason now, but I don't think it's enough." ”

"What does it take to be enough?"

Zhang Gui asked.

Yuan Keli said: "At least until the time of urgency." ”

"When it is urgent, there is indeed more motivation to rectify and restructure, such as the recovery of Xianzhou before, the establishment of the city of Yisi to sell Maoshan iron ore stocks, everyone agreed very smoothly, because of the urgent need for the iron ore of Maoshan Iron Mine to save the iron ore shortage of the Industrial Division. Now, there really isn't that sense of urgency. ”

Chen Zizhuang also said at this time.

"The gale begins at the end of the green pings. Those in power should have a long-term measure. ”

"Now is the urgent need to let more Han people come out of the Buddhist temple and Taoism to contribute to the cause of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, but when it is really needed, it will be too late!"

"A year's plan is like a valley of trees; A ten-year plan is like a tree; A lifelong plan is as good as a tree. In the future, in order to maintain the continuous wealth of the entire industrial division, and to let the emergence of new large minerals such as Maoshan Iron Mine in Daming, we must first let more people rely on industry and mining for profit, and rely on the new policy for profit, which will then cause an urgent demand for industrial development and foreign mining! ”

"Otherwise, sooner or later, the Department of Industry will be banned, Xishan will still change from an industrial base with a large number of workshops to a large manor for farming, and the new policy will still be abolished, and everything will still return to the old society of male cultivators and female weavers, monarchs and ministers."

Zhang Gui said and looked at Yuan Keli, Chen Zizhuang and the others: "When the time comes, the reputation of the princes will still be no more similar to Wang Shuwang, or even worse than Wang Shuwang!" In addition, as for the business of the public family, it will naturally turn from the dividends of the Department of Industry and the Maoshan Iron Mine to the land rent of the small people. ”

After saying this, Zhang Gui asked: "Do you have a sense of urgency now?" ”

Yuan Keli, Chen Zizhuang and others looked at each other.

At this time, Wei Zhongxian got up first and said, "At least our family has already felt very urgent!" ”

"Before our family entered the palace, it was an ordinary little people, and the suffering of the people has always been the suffering of our family, and our family can naturally feel how difficult the life of the common people who are controlled by the Buddhist temple and Taoist temple will be, how miserable it will be, and even be bewitched by them into anti-thieves, and end up being cut by the court as a thief, so how can our family endure the persecution of the people by the monks and Taoists in the world?"

Chen Zizhuang glanced at Wei Zhongxian with disdain, and felt that Wei Zhongxian was very shameless!

He wouldn't believe that Wei Zhongxian really cared about the people, obviously, but because he deliberately said this after hearing Uncle Zhang Guo say that if he didn't kill all the forces that wanted to restore the old system, he might lose the interests of the Industrial Department and even the interests of Maoshan Iron Mine, and even couldn't continue to open up new channels of interests.

But disdain is disdain, Chen Zizhuang has to admit that after his uncle Zhang Gui said this, he also felt a trace of unease and urgency, and he was really afraid that if he didn't take the opportunity of destroying the Buddha to cut the roots of the old party, his Chen family could no longer maintain such wealth, not to mention, he would really have a bad reputation and be smeared for eternity.

"Dividends or something are secondary, the interests of the people are the most important thing that should be concerned about as a scholar, Uncle Guo said so, how can the contemptible people not support it because of the people of the world?"

As a result, Chen Zizhuang was still despising Wei Zhongxian's hypocritical and shameless speech one second, and the next second he couldn't help but say high-sounding words.

Rao is he quickly realized that he was obviously hypocritical when he said this, but he was indeed unwilling to admit that he was really afraid that his Chen family's dividends would really disappear in the future, and his reputation would really stink in the future, so he could only follow your uncle all the way to the dark.

It's just that Chen Zizhuang noticed Yuan Keli's eyes looking at him, and lowered his head with guilt for a while, and said in his heart: "I was despised by Yuan Gong, hey!" ”

Let's get off the book

"This reason is enough, for the official, how can he not be the master of the people?!"

Suddenly, Yuan Keli also said such a sentence, and Chen Zizhuang breathed a sigh of relief, with a sense of relaxation that "it turns out that everyone is no longer so simple".
