They don't need to worry about this kind of trivial matter, just arrange a cronie.

The next day, the Nancheng Terracotta Division carried out routine extortion of merchants along the street in the name of rectifying the street in Jubaomen Commercial Street......

Say routine because they do it a lot.

After all, they can't control the military households in this city, and the Wutai Mountain gang doesn't dare to manage it, and the artisan households are also under the Ministry of Industry.

The only ones who are really suitable for them to start with are the merchants.

Just now in the capital, commerce can be said to be extremely developed, especially in the Jubaomen this Sanshan Street was originally a commercial street, now it is densely populated with merchants, and even in order to facilitate transportation, a new road with concrete on the bottom stone has been built, and commercial prosperity is of course inevitable street chaos. Most of the terracotta and horses in Nancheng are fishing from this street, street appearance, fire prevention, anti-theft, etc., in short, there are many names, and the merchants have long been about to endure it.

This time, a merchant doubled the fine because of it......

On the birthday of the abbot, the people under him naturally have to prepare a birthday gift, and the money must be stripped from the merchants.

Doubling fines is also routine.

But this time this merchant didn't know who gave him the courage, and he dared to refuse to pay, and he also claimed to go to the Dengwen drum, and the deputy commander of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division, who was enraged, immediately ordered to arrest him back to make him sober up. The latter was so angry that he ordered a beating, but the merchant and his men resisted vigorously, and then the surrounding merchants were angry, and the two sides fought in Sanshan Street, and during the battle, the deputy commander was opened with a big edict in a copper box.

The patrol of the robbery camp immediately rushed to arrest people, and eventually dozens of people were arrested, but immediately after that, all the merchants on Sanshan Street went on strike.

Then I went to beat the drums.

And soon most of the capital joined the strike, after all, this kind of thing is also often done by the soldiers and horses of the other four cities.

For a while, the capital was full of emotion, and there were even people who surrounded the Soldiers and Horses.

"This kind of thing ......"

Yang Feng said with some embarrassment.

Then he also looked at Guozhang, who honestly lowered his head.

"In fact, the key is that the rules have not been established, the development of the capital has been too fast in recent years, but the rules are still old, and they can't keep up, so it is inevitable that some corrupt officials will profit from it.

You can't blame them, after all, there are no rules in themselves, and there are no restrictions on their clever names.

In the same way, because there are no rules and regulations, merchants naturally do not know how to advance and retreat, so the key is to set up the rules.

But the Five Cities Terracotta Division is an official, and it is a principle that the official cannot harm the people, and in the absence of rules, the official cannot set up a name to harm the people, and we can say that the people are not right, but the government does not have a law in this regard, and it is a principle that the law does not prohibit it, so the fault is still in the Five Cities Terracotta Division. But after that, the imperial court can issue special regulations, such as not building indiscriminately, such as not littering, etc., how much can be fined if there is a violation, but the fine cannot be entered into the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.

The Five Cities Terracotta Division can issue invoices.

But you have to go to the bank to pay the money, so the fine and confiscation will be in the department, and the confiscation will be in the department, if the merchant fails to pay within the time limit, then you can be arrested and put in prison. ”

Yang Feng said.

The Five Cities Terracotta Division is now loyal to the Guozhang, because in addition to honoring the Guozhang, the rest are basically privately divided, and this kind of fine was originally set by themselves and has nothing to do with the household department.

But now only fines can be issued, and there is no power to collect money.

That's a fart!

Of course, it is still possible to make money privately.

But this private money is corrupt and perverted.

Patrol the Imperial History......

Finally, it was my turn.

"The one who was caught?"

The Queen Mother said.

"In addition to the one who killed the person, the others are just released, the fine of the Five Cities Terracotta Division is groundless, and it is not that there is no punishment for this kind of infringement of the interests of businessmen, the merchants are indeed inappropriate, but there is no law, they are defending their rights. As for the deputy commander who was killed by mistake in the resistance, this is at most negligent wounding, and he will be hanged according to the brawl and accidentally injuring people, but the person who holds the big edict will be reduced to the next level, with a hundred rods and three thousand miles. ”

Yang Feng said.

And then......

It can be redeemed.

Accidentally injuring a person in a brawl is a hanging, but it is a major punishment.

This system was still enforced until the Jiajing period, and there were still many crimes after the Jiajing period, because there were examples of large reductions in the family.

And when it is reduced to 100 rods and 3,000 li, the law can be paid and exonerated from sin.

So in the end, the merchant paid at most some money, and the deputy conductor who was killed also collected some money at most, and the money collected was to compensate the victims.

The deputy commander of the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is not the commander of the guard, and the deputy commander is a seven-rank officer.

"That's the best."

The Queen Mother said.

How could she know so many things, and besides, Yang Feng's arrangement was completely reasonable and legal, in fact, this kind of thing was handed over to the little princess to deal with, but outside it was beating the drum, and the Wucheng Terracotta Division was her father's subordinate, so she was in charge. She also knows that her father is corrupt and perverts the law, how can there be no one who is not corrupt and perverts the law in this identity, this time it can be said that it aroused public indignation, half of the capital joined the strike, her situation was already unstable, and it all relied on the support of the military and people of the capital to follow Yang Feng and the little princess, but she could not offend the military and the people of the capital.

"The case itself is not important, the important thing is to quickly enact the relevant laws."

Yang Feng said.

"Then there's Aunt Law."

The Queen Mother hurriedly said to her aunt.

Guojo was still silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yang Feng and the little princess left immediately.

"Now I'm afraid that Ying Tianfu will deliberately make an obstacle from it, that is, he is not allowed to redeem it, so as to retaliate against us."

The little princess said.

Redemption is determined by the local officials during the trial, and it does not mean that the standard is met, but in fact the standard is not met but the redemption is awarded, or the standard is met but the redemption is deliberately not awarded.

And the civil officials of the imperial court naturally did not cooperate with them.

"No, they will cooperate very well to redeem it, and then use this to provoke the hatred of the national lord against us, after all, he is disgraced."

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Disgraced? It would be nice not to let his head hit the ground. ”

The little princess sneered.

Of course, the fact is indeed as Yang Feng said, Ying Tianfu was sentenced the next day, and sentenced to death by hanging for accidentally injuring people in a fight, but because there was a big reduction and so on, and then the redemption was allowed, the family of the merchant handed over the money to Ying Tianfu that afternoon, so on the same day, the people returned to their business as if they were heroes in the welcome of gongs, drums and firecrackers from the merchants along the street.

Immediately after that, the soldiers and horses of the five cities all withered.

Even a few commanders, in a panic, began to return the fines to those merchants.

But on the same day, the regulations on the management of industry and commerce, which were formulated as quickly as possible, were also announced to the world in the form of a holy decree.

Not only in the capital, but also in the management of industry and commerce in all cities must be in accordance with this regulation.

This one is easy to solve.

In these years, there is no need to consider whether it is convenient for the people, whether it arouses public opinion opposition, as long as it is formulated, then the people must abide by it, at most if it is found to be unreasonable in the future, and then gradually revise it, but at least before it is modified, no matter what, it must be complied with, even if it is inconvenient. This is actually a law that is specific to urban industry and commerce. In particular, commercial norms are very necessary, just like Yang Feng said, the economic development of the capital is too fast, and the original laws can no longer keep up.

There must be new ones.

Of course, in the eyes of the court officials, this is actually the largest piece of the country's money, which is directly deprived of him.

Who made him talk a lot and ran to say what officials ran out?

That's the price of being talkative.

But......

What a happy event!

This means that Guozhang and Yang Feng have become enemies.

Although everyone also understands that at least for now, Guozhang has no ability to fight against Yang Feng at all, but as long as he is hostile to Yang Feng, it is okay.

The ability can be cultivated slowly, and no one expects to be able to solve Yang Feng now.

So soon the birthday of the abbot will be all over the world, not only the civil and military officials in the capital, but even a few officials who tell the old, the noble generals outside, and even a few vassal kings, all of them either give gifts or personally congratulate their birthdays, in short, just like the Donglin Party to Queen Zhang and her father during the apocalypse, the abbot is fluttering, as if his daughter is really the lord of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, Ambassador Yang directly ignored their behavior, and he didn't have time to deal with these people.

After all, he had to rebuild the court.

Not just to rebuild the imperial court, he had to rebuild the entire ruling system.

At present, the Ming Dynasty is close to the government decree not out of Tianfu, and the vast majority of the orders issued to various places to arrest those criminals have been arrested, that is, they have been arrested in several counties around Tianfu, and not to mention the provinces of Jiangxi, Huguang, even the local officials in Suzhou have not been arrested. In fact, after receiving the order, the prefect of Suzhou immediately resigned and ran away, and although the local garrison began to arrest, they had already gotten the news and ran away, and other places were similar. If the local officials do not arrest them, the guards will be ordered to arrest them, and the people will run away ahead of schedule, and in the end, the number of guards is limited, and it is impossible to complete the arrest task in time.

Even the health centers in provinces like Jiangxi and Huguang are also not sincere in grasping them.

In the end, there are thousands of people on the list of little princesses, and only a few hundred have been arrested so far, and most of them have disappeared.

In fact, the imperial court's control over the localities was largely lost.

This is also an inevitable result, no matter how strong Yang Feng is, he can't be the enemy of the world alone, he gives orders as much as possible in the capital, but he has officials outside the capital to execute it.

People don't do it.

Or drag.

Or the yang is against the yin.

Or deliberately make him bad, some magistrates deliberately implicate themselves by arresting, extorting and extorting, deliberately arousing public anger, so that the criminals who were originally just arresting the rebellion case turned into evil deeds that plagued the local area, so that the local people began to be hostile to the court, and even deliberately spread rumors, saying that Yang Feng was going to usurp the throne, so he took the opportunity to purge loyal ministers, and then manipulated public opinion to make the people turn against Yang.

There are all kinds of means.

They're all masters at playing this.

And most of those who are on the arrest list are actually fleeing south and fleeing to the area controlled by the Jianwen Imperial Court.

Anyway, the two Guangxi and Annan are sparsely populated, especially Guangxi, these people who fled south are all loyal ministers and righteous people who yearn for the light, of course, they have been properly resettled by the Jianwen Dynasty, in short, it is really quite a bit of a taste of the south. At least by the standards of the gentry, Yang Feng, the pseudo-imperial court, already has a bit of a taste of wind and rain, and the imperial court decree can be implemented around the Tianfu, and after Zhenjiang, it will begin to be disobeyed.

What Yang Feng needed to do was not only to rebuild the imperial court, but also to regain local control.

So......

"Is it difficult to be an official?

The key to this question depends on which side of the butt is.

If it is really for the people, then it is not difficult for this official to do, do not bend the law for bribes, do not disturb the people, do what is beneficial to the people, and do not do what is harmful to the people, it's as simple as that. But if it is for his own promotion and making a fortune, then it will be troublesome, he has to think about how to collect money day and night, he has to collude with the local gentry to set up a name, and he has to do everything he can to squeeze every drop of blood and sweat of the people.

I have to talk to my boss, drill the future of the camp, and be afraid of being caught, after all, if I am caught in the hands of Emperor Taizu Gao, I have to peel off the skin.

It can be said that there is intrigue every day, but there is no moment for the sake of the people.

So my request to you is very simple, it is sixteen words, please go elsewhere for promotion and wealth, and do not enter the door if you are greedy for life and fear of death. ”

Ambassador Yang said to their first batch of university students.

This is the result of his partnership with Zhu Yunxi for seven years, these students have been selected from the official schools of various health centers since they became literate, and then studied in Wutai Mountain, in fact, they have graduated last year, after all, the knowledge that needs to be taught to them in this era is not too much. That is, there is a lack of teachers, so it can only be taught by Yang Feng or those students who are smart and make rapid progress, so the teaching speed is limited, but five or six years is enough.

Then I interned in Wutaishan Industrial Park, banks, firms, and even mine sites for more than a year, and then reunited in the capital.

More than 500 people in total.

Not much.

But the good thing is that the education system is complete and working well.

So now the second batch of internships has also begun, and there will be more than 1,000 graduates next fall.

This was originally Zhu Yunxi's plan to use the new imperial examination to stuff into the officialdom and then replace those Confucian officials, but he died too early and didn't wait.

Now it's Yang Feng.

"Enke will start next month, you will all get the status of a lifter, and then participate in the imperial examination, this imperial examination is limited to Ying Tianfu, completely according to the five subjects of the first emperor, except for the liberal arts, the other subject test questions are all from me, so I will give you the answer."

Yang Feng said.

The students burst into laughter.

"Don't laugh, in order to take care of you in addition to these subjects, the test questions are the easiest, it is estimated that most of you will be able to do it in elementary school, so there is no need to worry about this, it is better to give you the answer directly, and don't get all full marks when the time comes. All of you will be admitted, and by the way, you will be admitted to some others, but you must keep in mind my words, if you also become corrupt and pervert the law, then I will really learn from Taizu, as for these days, your main job is to be as close as possible to my righteous daughters, and you will chase whichever you like, and take them all away when you take the exam.

Don't be embarrassed, I know that when you were in school, you actually had a love affair for a long time. ”

Yang Feng said with a smile.

These people have to be firmly in their hands.
