"The most important thing I am most concerned about is not the problem of borrowing."

"With regard to borrowing, it is sufficient to add an item to the borrowing rules that it shall not be used for commercial purposes."

"I think that business will develop rapidly in the future, and I have founded too many industries, such as soap, hot springs, textiles, etc., which are developing very rapidly.

As the emperor, I had to abolish the monopoly and let all the merchants intervene.

After so much time, I still don't see any competitors, and I am very pleased that these industries have been imitated and never surpassed.

However, this should not be overlooked.

The bigger and stronger you are, the more careful you have to be.

I want someone to be in charge of all the property, you are a talent, and I want you to be in charge. ”

Li Xingchen said in a deep voice.

This was the main reason for his visit.

After all, talents who do business are hard to come by, and after the prime minister focused on the imperial court, the newspaper developed better and better in the short term, and Li Xingchen knew that there were high-ranking people around the prime minister.

After asking, I learned that he handed over the newspaper to Qian Mingyue to deal with, and he was immediately overjoyed and came to find someone with the prime minister.

It's just that he didn't expect that Qian Mingyue was the beggar he gave him a meal at the beginning.

Qian Mingyue's eyes widened, and she was shocked for a while.

She couldn't believe that Li Xingchen would suddenly give her such an important job.

"How?" Li Xingchen smiled, "I don't want to take on this heavy responsibility." ”

"No, no, no, I was so shocked that I didn't react for a while. Your Majesty, are you serious? Qian Mingyue hesitated.

"Do you think I have the time to joster with you?" Li Xingchen said with a smile.

"Grass people, thank your majesty for the opportunity."

Qian Mingyue is a decisive person who disdains to pretend to shirk.

Listening to the prime minister's courage in front of him, a group of people can't compare at all, which is why Li Xingchen can't wait to come to her, through the exchange just now and her performance, Li Xingchen is very sure that the other party can take on this important task.

"Very well, I'm looking forward to your performance." Li Xingchen nodded in satisfaction.

Although Qin Mingyue is very confident in taking on this important task, there is also a trace of lack of confidence in her heart, and there are many places to learn.

But she was willing to do her best for Li Xingchen's trust, and after her death, she secretly decided in her heart that she would never let His Majesty down.

After chatting about business, the three of them ate pastries, drank tea, and chatted a few more words casually before Li Xingchen and the prime minister left.

As the days passed, everything went on in an orderly manner.

Early that day, Li Xingchen raised the issue of the construction of the farming institute.

You must know that all dynasties have always divided the people into four levels with scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants.

Scholars are almost all hereditary, and farmers are ranked before workers, while merchants have greatly improved their status in recent times, and workers are virtually ranked last.

In the system of three provinces and six ministries that is now being implemented, the six ministries do not have the Ministry of Agriculture but only the Ministry of Industry, and the situation formed is that the peasants are dependent on the workers.

Rather than this, it is better to integrate agriculture and industry together, so that the status of the agricultural institute is under the Ministry of Works, but above the various servants.

Only in this way can the resources of the entire Ministry of Industry be integrated to serve the agricultural institute, and the two will eventually complement each other.

After all, once the balance is broken, something new must mediate it, otherwise there will be turmoil.

Therefore, in view of the large number of agricultural workers flocking to business, the nationalization of land by opening agricultural institutes became an urgent matter.

After explaining the general idea, Li Xingchen asked in a deep voice: "I want to set up a farming institute in the Ministry of Industry, what do you think Aiqing?" ”

The prime minister hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, your idea is good, but now the six ministries are complete and the officials are complete.

There are a total of twenty-four Cao and thirty-six squires in the six departments, and the addition of a farming institute in the Ministry of Industry alone, the status is second only to Shangshu, and it is still above the squire, which will break the balance of the six departments. ”

Li Xingchen frowned slightly, he really didn't consider this problem.

The ministers of civil and military affairs also looked at each other, Li Xingchen's mention was very good, but it just broke the balance of officialdom.

Originally, the six ministries were tied, but now the Ministry of Industry has an extra freak of a farming institute, wouldn't it make the Ministry of Industry jump above the six departments all of a sudden?

Except for the Ministry of Works, who was secretly happy, the rest of the people were silent.

Looking at Li Xingchen's inevitable posture, no one dared to boldly oppose his proposal, for fear of causing his displeasure.

Seeing that the ministers were reluctant to speak, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites said: "Back to Your Majesty, the establishment of a farming institute to nationalize the land, and the act of replacing agriculture with officials is really smart, but it is not appropriate to rashly increase the official position in the Ministry of Industry!" ”

Li Xingchen was silent for a moment, and then said: "What the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Rites said, I understand that it is just that the Farming Academy has a great relationship with the current development of Great Wei, and it must be set up. ”

For the establishment of a farming yard, Li Xingchen is indeed imperative.

But I have to admit that the prime minister is right, it is easy to break the balance of the six parts!

The way of the emperor, the key is balance, the three provinces and six ministries system is to eliminate the power set and proud move, must not be broken, let one dominate.

The agricultural institute must be set up, and the Ministry of Industry needs to cooperate, which is difficult.

After thinking for a while, Li Xingchen smiled and said: "It's better to do this, I will set up the farming institute under the imperial court, not under any department, and directly under the imperial court."

What do you think of the establishment of the Farming Institute as the president and vice president, the president is from the third grade, and the vice president is the fourth grade? ”

The Shangshu of each department is the third grade, the waiter below is the fourth grade, and the dean of the Farming Institute is the third grade, which happens to be involved between the Shangshu and the waiter, Li Xingchen feels that they should have nothing to say now.

And this is equivalent to one's own direct jurisdiction.

The Farm Institute is related to the country's social affairs, and it is better to completely pinch it in your own hands.

"Your Majesty is wise."

The ministers agreed.

Anyway, if you don't break the balance and don't endanger your position, the emperor has no opinion on how he wants to play the six parts.

What's more, since this farming institute was proposed by the emperor himself, it is not necessary for him to personally manage it.

Li Xingchen nodded in satisfaction.

"I have my own arrangements for the dean's candidates, do you have any candidates for the vice president?"

Hearing what the emperor meant, the director of the Agricultural Academy did not seem to be ready to be selected in the imperial court, and everyone's faces were slightly disappointed.

Although there is no shadow of the farming institute at the moment, it is directly under the emperor and is a high-ranking official from the third grade.

Everyone wants to be able to raise talents for the country and win this position for their family, but the emperor obviously has no intention of selecting people internally, so everyone has to dismiss the idea.

However, the position of vice president is full of excitement again, and it is not bad to be able to compete for a high-ranking official of the fourth grade.

The secretary of the Ministry of Industry took the lead and said: "The minister thinks that Lu Gui, the envoy of the capital water, is proficient in water conservancy and can serve as the vice president. ”

The envoy of Dushui is from the fifth grade, and there is a difference of two levels from the fourth grade, and the official department can't help frowning, and the Ministry of Industry still has to intervene.
