Chapter 248: Fluctuations
The investigation has not yet ended, but another matter has been done in a hurry.
It is a top priority that has to be carried out after all the Beijing inspection plans, well, it is the top priority of the world's scholars - Kaienke.
Of course, this kind of thing is not necessary, but any emperor who has a little skill will usually do this once after the Jingcha plan.
Why should this kind of basic exercise be taken in advance, because there are really emperors who have not opened Enke.
Who can't even be called a "slightly skilled emperor", everyone in the world understands it in their hearts.
From the Ming generation to the present, the only one who does not open Enke to harvest people's hearts after the Jingcha plan is Zhu Qizhen, a stupid pig.
Judging from the current skills of the current Emperor Jingtai, it is necessary to open Enke after the Jingcha plan, but no one thought that so many people would be directly dismissed.
At the beginning, many people outside the powerful Jingcha, that is, to make a show, at most a dozen or so people, it was already a great thing.
But no one expected that nearly 900 people would be dismissed. 、
Let's take an analogy.
Later generations of civil servants are recruited every year, that is, there are so many people, it seems to be a lot, and when converted to the region, that is, hundreds or thousands of people are scrambling for a place.
Some single moves are still high in standard thieves, and they are not for recruiting people at all, they understand everything.
Now that there is such an opportunity, there are suddenly vacant seats that are dozens or hundreds of times the number of recruits in the past, and those who want to take the test can't help but shine in their eyes?
I'm so excited that I can't sleep!
Such a great opportunity, I would never dare to dream of it!
The current situation is still different from the expansion of civil servants in later generations, the Ming Imperial Examination, and the last people who can give officials are those who are the last to enter the ranks and ranks.
In addition, most of the tribute students under the Jinshi have to wait for the officials.
What is a supplementary officer?
is to wait for there to be a vacancy above, and still in the absence of insiders to occupy it, to make up for those who have meritorious fame but no official work.
The system is good, the question is, what are the chances?
It can only be said that it is re-recorded to your head, which is about the same as the probability of winning the 5 million lottery, and for the average reader, it is infinitely close to zero.
Once there is a vacancy, the priority is to choose people in the system, this is also the rule, it is possible that you have waited for ten years, and the children of other officials and eunuchs will go up with a word.
That's the difference.
Even many Jinshi can't make up for it, not to mention those Jinshi in the world who can't get in?
It's the same as "Fan Jinzhongju".
In fact, Fan Jin was in high school in his later years, and he was directly an official to do it, which was already a rare existence, don't look at the crazy appearance after the middle lift, but from that moment on, he was already an official who many people couldn't envy.
It is a fact that many people, even if they have fame, will not be able to wait for a supplementary quota in their lifetime.
When Jingtai made a grand plan in the second year of Jingtai, the news that Jingshi had cleared nearly 900 officials spread to the locality, what did it mean to the world's scholars?
That's a miracle that you can't wait for in a lifetime, ten lifetimes, and you can't necessarily wait for!
According to Emperor Jingtai's skills in recent years, the next step is almost to open Enke, because Jingcha is the last presiding officer of Yu Qian's military department, the chance of being directly occupied by the children of the official eunuchs in the system is even more minimal.
First of all, as the emperor, Zhu Di would not allow such a thing to happen under his nose.
If these people are dismissed with great effort, one is relaxed, and it is occupied by the rest of the eunuchs, and the new blood is not enriched, and a group of people are replaced, and they are still corrupt and form a party.
So what are you busy with?
What's the point of all this?
The issue of whether the imperial court can open Enke is still being discussed, and the students who have received the news in the world have begun to gather in the Beijing like a storm.
In order to arrive early so as to seize the opportunity.
No one doesn't want to be an official, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Every time the news spreads to a place, a phenomenon will occur, and the local students will almost unanimously begin to enter Beijing.
However, now is not the time to open the imperial examination at all, and the Jingshi has not conducted any examinations, so there is no doubt about what they are here to do.
It's a spectacular phenomenon, and it's probably the most pomp and circumstance ever.
Among the scholars in the world, there are those who have the heart to serve the country, those who want to be officials to change the fate of their families, and those who are for fame and profit.
】
No matter what the purpose, whether it is a talent or an accompaniment, the three teachings and nine streams are all pouring into Beijing, like a tide.
The first reaction to this extremely abnormal phenomenon was not the government, but the major inns and restaurants in Beijing.
These business people, with a wide range of sources, will not miss any opportunity to make money, as soon as they hear that the limelight is not right, the entire inns and restaurants in Jingshi almost immediately began to increase in price.
An inn that used to cost only seven pieces of silver to stay in for one night may now cost more than one or two pieces of silver.
This is still the news that the imperial court has not officially decentralized, and most of the scholars have not yet arrived in Beijing, and if the news is confirmed, the price of the inn will rise wildly.
Even, the prices of the entire Jingshi are almost rising wildly.
After the trade, the government soon discovered this phenomenon, but because it was a general price increase, it was inconvenient for the government to deal with it, so it had to be reported to the imperial court.
In response, an emergency meeting is being held at the Ministry of Households.
"The price of accommodation in Kyoto has tripled in the last seven days, and it continues!" ”
"If you don't stop this kind of almost crazy thing as soon as possible, the market in Jingshi will be hit hard!"
A squire also stood up and said, "What Lord Song said is very true, I went to the West Market the day before yesterday and learned that many rice merchants, noodle merchants, and even cloth merchants are secretly plotting to raise prices. ”
"They must be stopped!" Hubu Shangshu Jin Lian slammed up.
Jin Lian is a jealous and hateful person, and he is also a loyal supporter of Yu Qian.
"If these people who like to accumulate money are allowed to increase prices unscrupulously, all localities will compete to follow suit, and in case a wave spreads to the whole country, it will be too late to stop it!"
Someone said: "Lord Ministry, Xia Guan came back from Tongzhou yesterday and found that Tongzhou had been affected. ”
"The inn in Tongzhou originally only cost three dollars of silver, but now the cheapest night costs five yuan, and the rest of the goods have also risen."
After the official finished speaking, he sat down, and the rest of the household officials were all talking.
"How's that okay?"
"Yes, Enko's official document has not yet reached the place, and it has become the current situation?"
An official stood up and said, "Why don't we wait for the news of the lack of Enke first, and wait for the market price to stabilize, and then secretly distribute the news to the state capitals and counties." ”
"This is not the right way!" Jin Lian said directly: "How many students from poor families have come here for this opportunity, pouring out their family wealth or borrowing money?" ”
"Now that you are coming back from the uproar, it is bound to be chilling to the court, and it is not good for Your Majesty, not to mention the decree of the court, how can the decree be changed overnight!"
