Chen Zongli was squeezed by Zhu Yunxi for a while, and his face was a little unbearable.

No matter what he says, he is still a household minister, and in front of so many court officials, King Wu dares to be so ruthless to him, if he makes this person the emperor in the future, then he must be like the old emperor, and he will be pushed out and cut down without saying a word!

Other civil officials were also a little no, feeling that King Wu was too arrogant and had no respect for the courtiers at all.

Even if the old emperor is so brutal, when he uses someone, he has to pretend to say Aiqing, so as to coax someone to work hard for him.

His Royal Highness King Wu is down, this is not polite at all!

"Wu Wangdian, what you said is not right. The old man is also for the imperial court examination, for the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Society Examination, as a Ming Domain, how can you do everything for the purpose of making money? ”

"The farm tools made by the imperial court are indeed not as good as the ones you produce, and the price is a little more expensive. But this matter is related to the basic state of the Ming Dynasty, the artisan household is responsible for the construction work, the farmer is responsible for farming, the military household is responsible for protecting the family, and the merchant is responsible for the goods to the world......"

"Whoever does what is already determined to be dead in the household register."

"You sell agriculture privately, resulting in a backlog of goods in government-run workshops in various places, and the government has no money to pay for craftsmen, so how can the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of artisan households in the Ming Dynasty be maintained?"

As soon as Chen Zongli said this, the officials in the hall all nodded together, and some of them were young and vigorous and applauded on the spot.

"Master Chen is right!"

"Since ancient times, agriculture and industry have their own shares, His Royal Highness King Wu, as the emperor, has a noble status, how can he do that thing to fight with the people and the country!"

When Chen Zongli heard that everyone unanimously supported him, he was even more courageous.

"Besides, Wu Wangdian, you are too unkind in this matter, right?"

"The imperial court purchased the water power in the southern suburbs of the city, but it cost a full 600,000 taels of silver!"

"In order to make up for this, the entire Yingtian, as well as the officials in Beijing, only took half of it this month!"

"However, the imperial court paid such a big generation, you actually sold the imperial court an unusable work, not to mention that there are often problems with machinery, and the level of craftsmen is not, and the production is all defective, not to mention that compared to your supervision, it is the same as the past weapons bureau, which is a big difference!"

When the officials in the main hall heard this, they blew up on the spot, you must know that the silver that bought the workshop was deducted from their salaries!

And at that time, the head of the household department promised that when he bought the work, the court would earn it in the future, and not only would he make up for the salaries owed to them, but he would also pay them an extra few months......

Now, as soon as they heard that the new workshop could not even produce decent farm tools and weapons, they were so anxious that their eyes were red.

"Wu Wangdian, you are going too far!"

"The imperial court bought your workshop but it was nothing, how can you hide it, and keep a hand when you are gone!"

"Your Majesty, please order His Royal Highness King Wu to hand over the secret of the new workshop, otherwise the 600,000 taels of silver in the court will be wasted......"

Lao Zhu listened to the angry voices of the crowd below, and his face was red with embarrassment.

Because he also has a vested interest in this deal......

The imperial court spent a total of 600,000 taels of silver on the acquisition of the workshop, of which 300,000 taels were pulled into the palace by Guo Hui's mother-in-law!

Lao Zhu has been able to do and sit all his life, so he dares to face hundreds and is not afraid of anyone's gossip.

However, the 300,000 taels of silver in the palace this time made him feel as if he had been pricked with a thorn in his heart, and his heart was faintly empty.

Otherwise, if an official dared to interrogate himself in court, he would have ordered someone to drag him out to play the board!

"Ahem......"

"Great, you come to explain to everyone, did you hide your privacy when you sold the workshop?"

When Zhu Yunxi heard Lao Zhu Fa, he shook his head firmly on the spot.

"Nope!"

"Even the craftsmen are carefully selected by their grandchildren, and they are definitely competent in the work of a hydraulic workshop, and they can also deal with general mechanical problems......"

Zhu Yunxi also had a snack when he said this, the craftsmen were indeed carefully selected by him, but he carefully selected the rest before leaving it to the imperial court.

The real good craftsman let him be bound as a guest of Wu Wangfu, and no one wants to take it away from him!

But even then, the rest of the people are more than enough to cope. _o_m

。

After all, this is just a hydraulic work, all the transmission parts are visible to the naked eye, nothing more than replacing a tooth, or adjusting the transmission rod, and you can learn it by just grabbing two people in the workshop for a month.

Shang Shuru of the Ministry of War often heard Zhu Yunxi like this, and jumped out of the crowd on the spot.

"You talk nonsense!"

"The old man took over the new workshop for half a month, and he stayed in the workshop every day, but he didn't produce a suitable weapon!"

"And those machines are stuck at every turn, and one link is stuck and all the bottom has to stop, which is slower than the old workshop!"

This is the key to the production of hydraulic workshops, one link is linked, one link is asked, it will lead to serious efficiency, not as fast as the traditional production method.

"The old man now seriously doubts the property of His Royal Highness King Wu during the supervision period, should you take it from elsewhere and sell it to the court, saying that you produced it yourself, right?"

When the others heard this, they exploded directly, and one after another accused Zhu Yunxi of being unkind and deliberately deceiving the court.

However, in the face of everyone's fingers, Zhu Yunxi just asked a question.

"Ru Changshang, I ask you, have you paid the craftsmen?"

"Send money?"

When Ru Chang heard this, he immediately asked inexplicably.

"Why send money?"

"It is only natural for craftsmen to work for the imperial court, why did the old man give them money!"

Ru Chang's words involve the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty, according to the Ming system, the artisan household has to work for the court three times a year, or every three, for the court to do a year's work for the court as a tax.

Because, whether it was the central court or the magistrate, the Ming Dynasty recruited craftsmen to work, not to mention giving them money, sometimes they even had to bring their own rations.

Only a small number of very good craftsmen will be treated favorably by the imperial court. Meals are provided free of charge and a small amount of extra money is added each month.

This is also the biggest drawback of the Ming craftsman registration system, which can be said to minimize the enthusiasm of craftsmen to work, making the military products of the Ming Dynasty inferior to the next generation.

At the beginning of the dynasty, it could also be suppressed by the authority of the founding king. After several generations of emperors, this system is bound to be difficult to maintain. If it is forcibly maintained, the result will be civil engineering, as well as various other forms of loss of power and humiliation of the country.

Take the firearms of the Ming Dynasty, and in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the border army basically gave up the use of firearms such as firearms.

Because this thing not only fires, but also often blows up, injuring its own people.

As a result, the quality of Daming's military products has declined much more seriously.

Zhu Yunxi didn't understand this, but he understood that if he wanted the horses to run, he had to give the horses grass.

You can't even fool a child just by painting cakes, how can you fool those low-level craftsmen who hide in the dust and face reality?

Zhu Yunxi heard Ru Chang say this confidently, and he only felt that his lungs were about to explode.

Although he knew that he couldn't blame Ru entirely, he had to blame his own bad old man, but he still went up with a mouth in a rage.

"Ru Chang!"

"Are you talking about human words?"

"I only ask you one, if the imperial grandfather doesn't give you a salary, and still lets you do it every day, are you willing to do it in your heart!"

When Ru Chang heard this, he suddenly said for a while, thinking that this is not nonsense, who will give your old Zhu family life if you don't give it to Yulu!

But this kind of thing can only be thought in the heart, or spit out in private, but I dare not say it to my face.

After all, they are all court officials, so they still have to talk about dignity and face......

"We are for the country, even if there is no ...... for us"

Ru Chang wanted to sing high, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Chen Zongli on the side. Error-free updates @

He knows the old emperor's temper too well, if the old emperor really believes it, he really dares not to give money to the court officials!

"Wu Wang Palace, how can we scholars be compared to craftsmen?"

"Craftsmen work in government-run workshops in their spare time to compensate for their contributions, and they can still rely on making farm tools and other things to support their families......"

"You know, craftsmen usually earn money by working, but the court has confiscated a penny of silver from them. Let them work instead of them, which is also the grace that Your Majesty specially gave them for fear of increasing the burden on the craftsmen......"

Old.

Zongli shut up when he said this, because he really couldn't make it up.

As a household minister, it is impossible for him to be completely ignorant of the drawbacks of the Ming household registration system. But the old emperor regarded this as the fundamental system of the Ming Empire, and no one could have more, even if he could only barely maintain it in this system.

When Zhu Yunxi heard Chen Zongli's words, he went back without thinking about it.

"Lord Chen's words are not right, in my opinion, this is not necessarily a favor, but it increases the burden of the craftsmen at the bottom. _o_m ”

"There is no distinction between craftsmen and farmers, and there is no specific distinction between idle and busy. It may not be opened in March, but it can be opened for half a year. ”

"Again, a certain craftsman has rested for most of the time, and finally took over a big one, which can let him work for two or three months."

Then at this time, the court recruited him to work in the government, so he could only push this job and work for the court. When he finishes working for the court and returns to his workshop, there may be no more work, so how can you let him live as a family? ”

When Chen Zongli heard this, his heart beat with a "bang", and he exclaimed in his heart Zhu Yunxi, isn't it the biggest drawback of the Ming craftsman system?

In fact, this kind of question can be seen by any official in the DPRK and the central government, but no one dares, let alone says it in front of the emperor!

Now that Zhu Yunxi has poked this layer of window paper, then don't blame the official for being unkind!

"Dare to ask Wu Wangdian, what do you think the imperial court needs to do to fundamentally solve this shortcoming?"

Chen Zongli's words were obviously digging for Zhu Yunxi, but Zhu Yunxi was already on the top, where could he still think of this.

"It's easy!"

"The annual taxes that artisan households need to pay are converted into copper, and those who don't want to work for the imperial court will be exempted from labor, and those who don't want to pay money will go to the government-run workshops to work in lieu of taxes."

"In this way, no one will be delayed, won't it be convenient for the government and craftsmen?"

Chen Zongli was shocked when he heard this, isn't this what the old man has always wanted to say but didn't dare to say?

Since His Royal Highness King Wu said it for the old man, the old man is not welcome!

"The minister is Your Majesty, and he is congratulated by King Wu!"

"His Royal Highness King Wu is a young man, and he can say that such an old man is seeking the country, which is really a blessing for the Ming Dynasty!"
