Chapter 174: Shao Yongshan, do you still have any questions now?
Fengtian Temple.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon chair, absentmindedly listening to the reports of the officials below, but he was thinking about another thing in his mind, that is, how to increase the revenue of the treasury.
In fact, it's not a secret.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knew that the Ming Dynasty was short of money, and His Majesty the Emperor was short of money.
Based on this, when Huang Zicheng drafted the exam questions, he would add the topic of "making money".
Zhu Yuanzhang really got on the set, and when he saw this topic, he couldn't move his eyes, and he immediately designated this topic.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang never expected the group of bastards in the big hall to write anything useful, and Zhu Yunxi's article was purely an accident.
"Your Majesty?"
"Huh?"
Lao Zhu heard the voice of the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and his mind was immediately clear.
"What did you just say?"
"Your Majesty, Weichen just said that the repair of the imperial mausoleum requires money for the construction of the central capital, is it necessary to suspend a ......?"
Lao Zhu heard the answer of the Ministry of Works, thought for a while, and said the suggestion made by the eldest grandson before.
"Shao Yongshan, someone suggested to us before, let us hand over the government-run workshop to the private sector, and the court only needs a fixed percentage of the commission, do you think this method is feasible?"
Shao Yongshan frowned when he heard this, he heard Qin Kui, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, say that this proposal was clearly proposed by His Royal Highness King Wu, and it had already been scolded back by Qin Shangshu, why did His Majesty bring it up again?
"Your Majesty, this method does seem to work."
"According to Weichen, this method has several drawbacks."
"First of all, the equipment of the government-run workshops is outdated, the craftsmen are lazy, and it seems that it is difficult to simply let the people manage it."
"Secondly, how to ensure the quality?"
"Now that the workshop is under the management of the government, and the craftsmen are still cheating, once they are allowed to run their own business, won't the weapons and farm tools they have created be even more useless?"
"Moreover, the production of weapons is related to the safety of the country, how to prevent craftsmen from building privately, and how to control the flow of weapons is a very heavy work."
"Judging from the number of officials in the Ministry of Industry, it is impossible to manage it at all......"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to listen to it anymore when he heard this, because Shao Yongshan made it clear that he didn't approve of this matter, and if he listened to it again, it was nothing more than all kinds of prevarications and excuses.
But Zhu Yuanzhang wants to do this very much, firstly, it is really feasible, and secondly, there is really no other way to make money.
Whether it is a proposal to print more treasure money or a proposal to raise the commercial tax, there are many drawbacks.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not understand the laws of the market economy in later generations, he also knew that treasure banknotes could not be printed indiscriminately from the simple cognition of an ordinary peasant. If you print it again, it will really be a butt wipe.
Lao Zhu listened to Shao Yongshan's complaint for a while, and then whispered to Qin Deshun on the side.
"Go to the main hall and call our eldest grandson and his three masters."
"No!"
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished saying this, when he looked at the officials below, there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Of course, he knew what these officials were against, and if this suggestion was made by Zhu Yunwen or other civilian officials, then they would definitely raise their hands in favor of it.
Now they are so opposed because the person who made the suggestion is not right.
Lao Zhu couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this, feeling that his stupid grandson had been involved in the dispute between the prince in a daze.
It's just that the kid really can't be blamed for this, the main thing is that he never gave the kid a word of accuracy, which made the kid misunderstand.
Hum!
Since you look down on our eldest grandson, let you see the three masters of our eldest grandson's new worship!
Lao Zhu's idea is more or less a bit of a show-off element, showing off their royal face and showing off his eldest grandson's great ability.
Not long after, Zhu Yunxi came up to the hall with a worried heart.
On the way to the Fengtian Temple, the three old men explained to him the etiquette of His Majesty's meeting and instructed him to do so.
Zhu Yunxi walked up to the main hall and immediately bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang as the three masters taught.
"Sun Chen Zhu Yunxi visited his grandfather and grandfather, long live the imperial grandfather, long live the imperial grandfather!"
Lao Zhu sat on the dragon chair, and when he saw that the eldest grandson was polite and had a clear appearance, he was so happy that he couldn't wait to stretch out two slaps and applaud the eldest grandson.
My eldest grandson has really picked up a treasure, just worshiped three masters, there is such a great growth, and the future is unlimited!
Since the eldest grandson is satisfied with etiquette, he can't fool around.
"Love Sun Pingshen!"
After Lao Zhu said this, he hurriedly looked behind the eldest grandson, and deliberately asked as if he had seen it for the first time.
"Huh!"
"Love Sun Pingshen!"
"Who are the three cloth men behind you, why don't you hurry up and introduce us?"
Zhu Yunxi's eyes widened when he heard this, if he remembered correctly, he had already told this old man when he was having breakfast, right?
Zhu Yunxi was stunned, and the three old men kneeling behind him understood in seconds.
What have they not experienced and who have not seen anything they have lived for most of their lives?
Although Zhu Yuanzhang is an emperor, he is also a person after all, and he has vanity.
"Back to Your Majesty, Caomin Songjiang Yang Xinlu!"
"Back to Your Majesty, grass people Songjiang Qin Hengbo!"
"Back to Your Majesty, the contemptible Suzhou is smart!"
In fact, even if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't pretend to be surprised, the civil and military officials in the hall also noticed the three old men.
In the main hall of the emperor's last dynasty, three old men in cloth clothes suddenly appeared, which was a great spectacle.
The three of them also followed Zhu Yunxi into the hall together, which naturally attracted everyone's attention.
However, after hearing the self-introduction of the three people, the military generals did not react much, but the civilian officials were collectively fryers.
This is Yang Xinlu, the son of Yang Weizhen?
Jiangnan contemporary literary and poetry leaders?
That Qin Hengbo was also a bull, don't look at his reputation, but he was indeed a famous Confucian at that time. I just don't like fame, I just like to travel in the mountains and rivers, and visit all the famous mountains and rivers.
As for that Gao Ming, he is even more powerful, he is the younger brother of Gao Qi, one of the four heroes of Wuzhong, and has a very high reputation in Suzhou Mansion.
All officials from Suzhou, even if they are not from their disciples, are extremely praised for their knowledge and character.
Therefore, when all the civil officials heard that it was these three great gods, they were all shocked and dumbfounded.
Just when everyone was surprised and inexplicable, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke again.
"It turned out to be the three great sages, I don't know why the three great sages followed behind our eldest grandson?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people and the other three people are impressed by the sincerity of His Royal Highness the Three Emperors and Suns, and they are kind and filial, and they have accepted his apprenticeship and officially become his master."
If it is said that the three people went up to the temple, everyone was surprised enough. But when the three of them said that they had become Zhu Yunxi's master, the civil officials were collectively dumbfounded.
At this time, there is only one thought in their hearts, and that is to change the sky!
These three people may not have much influence on the six bigwigs in the DPRK, but they have an extremely powerful influence on the middle and lower-level officials in the DPRK.
Many of them come directly or indirectly from the trio.
Zhao Mian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, changed his face on the spot, and even fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Qin Kui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, was even more heartbroken, and secretly thought of a possibility, that is, whether the article written by Zhu Yunxi would come from these three people?
Otherwise, at Zhu Yunxi's age, how could he come up with such an ingenious solution?
You must know that ordinary princes and grandsons have never even been out of the palace gate, and even if they have been out of the palace gate, they are still dazzled by the world of flowers outside, how can they pay attention to the affairs of the government-run workshop?
Shao Yongshan, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, was the most embarrassed, he came directly from Qin Hengbo's disciples, and in his early years, he had studied art articles under his disciples, and had received a lot of guidance from Qin Hengbo.
If the proposal of public-private partnership came from Master Qin, then he was suspected of deceiving his teacher and destroying his ancestors just now.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, when Qin Shi was young, he had the legacy of Ji Kang, and liked to mingle with craftsmen and study some strange things.
If he wrote such articles for Zhu Yunxi, it would really be normal.
Lao Zhu sat on a high place, taking in all the expressions of the people below, and when he saw that the officials below were almost surprised, he immediately looked at the eldest grandson and said.
"Aison, the Ministry of Workers has some doubts about the public-private partnership you proposed, I wonder if you can personally solve your doubts?"
When Zhu Yunxi heard this, his hanging heart completely let go.
This matter is too simple, but he has hundreds of years of advanced experience beyond Daming.
What is state-run, private, or public-private partnership, this is all a routine!
Zhu Yunxi looked at the crowd, and then his eyes fell on an official in a red robe standing under Lao Zhu, and secretly said in his heart that the so-called squire should be him.
"Dare to ask this squire, if you have any questions, just ask!"
Shao Yongshan looked at Zhu Yunxi, and then at the three people behind Zhu Yunxi, and there was a drum beating in his heart.
But I have just said it, and there is no possibility of taking it back at this time, so I can only repeat it head-on.
"Dare to ask His Royal Highness King Wu, can the public-private partnership you proposed have specific regulations, and what are your thoughts on the selection criteria for daily operations?"
"In addition, how to ensure the quality of weapons, and prevent craftsmen from building weapons without permission, which hinders the safety of the country?"
Zhu Yunxi said lightly when he heard this.
"Is that all there are two questions?"
"That's all for now!"
"Good!"
Zhu Yunxi said with a slight sigh.
"The selection of people is easy to do, and the person who is responsible for the daily operation must know how to produce. Secondly, the person who operates must know how to operate and have a certain management ability. ”
"For the selection of people, I recommend selecting from the craftsmen."
"Even if they are not very proficient in business, at least they can keep one head, and that is to know how to produce."
"As for supervision, I suggest the adoption of the director and deputy director system."
"The director is responsible for production, operation, management and other affairs. The deputy director shall be appointed by the Ministry of Industry or the local government, but shall not meddle in any management matters in the workshop, and shall only have the right to audit and supervise. ”
"If one is not enough, you can also set up a few more, for example, someone full-time audit accounts, someone full-time supervision of quality, and so on."
"Supervise each other, contain each other!"
When the civil and military officials above the court heard this, they were all shocked by Zhu Yunxi's clear and logical reasoning. Especially for the words of mutual supervision and mutual containment that they said at the end, it was even more shocking.
How old is this son, and he can know how to contain it!
Relatively speaking, the officials' reaction was good, after all, some of them already had a preconceived idea that this was the answer that Yang Xinlu and the other three had written for Zhu Yunxi a long time ago, and he just had to read it from the book.
Lao Zhu's reaction was an exaggeration, and he was so excited that he stood up directly from the dragon chair.
Lao Zhu, as Zhu Yunxi's grandfather, knows the details of this grandson too well, he only climbed down from the dragon bed in the Qianqing Palace yesterday, and he didn't have time to discuss with these three people at all.
Moreover, when he wrote that article, he had not yet worshipped these three people as teachers, and it was impossible for them to be selected by them.
Therefore, what the eldest grandson said in the court today is completely from this grandson's own thoughts!
At this moment, Lao Zhu's heart was full of pride and pride, and even gave birth to a sigh of grandeur, what more could the husband ask for!
"Shao Yongshan, do you still have any questions now?"
