Nature hates vacuums.

In Zhejiang, although a group of merchant families such as Qian, Xu, and Song were forcibly arrested, after they left, it did not mean that no one did these businesses. How many small and medium-sized businessmen are waiting to eat away at these gaps.

And Zhejiang is going to change from chaos to governance, Wang Hua, the governor, has the heaviest burden on his shoulders, and he can also listen to the opinions of Zhang Yong, Mei Kejia and others. But the life of the people does not depend on the court to run eucalyptus, the fields have to be planted, the silk has to be woven, and all civil affairs have to be back on track, so he, the governor, can also explain to the court.

And Wang Hua is a person from Zhan Shifu, as early as the twelfth year of Hongzhi, he knew that the prince was the most practical, so after batches of prisoners set off for Beijing, he also began to clean up this mess.

As the old saying goes, there is no stability without agriculture, and there is no wealth without business.

Although the status of merchants is not high, the circulation of goods still depends on them. And business is first and foremost in a stable social environment.

So Wang Hua did two things, one is to rectify the public security situation in various prefectures and prefectures in Zhejiang, and to eliminate the influence of eucalyptus as soon as possible.

Second, the government strongly advocates the resumption of commercial activities in the past, and the business activities of the people are relaxed to a certain extent, and the stores that used to belong to a certain industry should be reopened as soon as possible, and the ownership rights will be recorded under the governor's yamen first.

Mainly some silk weaving workshops, because of the large number of people involved, each family almost has dozens of large and small workshops, and now the number of looms stored together has reached more than 12,000.

Silk is Mei Ke's main business, and Mei Kejia doesn't care about it, he just wants to unify this silk workshop. Unified production, unified management, and unified sales, of course, sales are still smuggling.

However, according to Wang Hua's general style, he didn't dare to make his own decisions about a major event involving two millions of silver like this, and Mei Kejia's suggestion was not feasible, and he still had to implement it after making it clear to the prince.

But in any case, the survival of the people is a natural driving force, not to mention that a few businessmen are gone, that is, the emperor is gone, what should be done or what to do.

As long as there is an army to maintain order, Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Huzhou and other places are basically in order, and the current economic model itself is also a small-scale peasant economy, although daily life will be a little inconvenient, but as long as the impact is controllable, it does not matter.

In addition, it is the end of the year, and next year's spring ploughing must not be delayed.

With so many of the above affairs, it is okay to rely on the governor's yamen to support it in a short period of time, but it is not good for a long time, so Wang Hua also made it clear in the recital of the Beijing division that after the Spring Festival at the latest, the vacant official vacancies must be filled.

The East Palace and the cabinet no longer care about who they arrested as before, and now the key is that after arresting people, Zhejiang must also be managed. Therefore, there have been frequent exchanges between Zhejiang and Beijing recently, and most of them are to ask the prince for these things.

Zhu Houzhao opened up an office space for himself, and there were books in the room, which were all for his "secretaries", like Feng Xi and Jin Gui, because of the lack of manpower, and asked Wang Wei to recommend two people, both of whom are more talented people who pay more attention to the theory of applying the world, one is Wang Xian, who is the 15th of the second class of the Yiwei department, and Guo Shangli, who is the 75th of the second class of the nonxu department. ….

These people are simple secretaries, and their job is to convert Zhu Houzhao's spoken language into written language. And the various types of documents are classified according to the method mentioned by the prince, so that they can be easily consulted.

Zhejiang's affairs have official positions and money, and if you don't set up a special class to supervise it, the efficiency is really unacceptable to Zhu Houzhao, a modern person.

However, it was the ministers of the court who really discussed countermeasures with the crown prince.

The first thing is two things, one is that the list of officials in Zhejiang is going to come out, and the other is those merchants...... After raiding their homes, their property is not all cash, and there are also many shops, if the family is okay and the number is large, there must be special management.

"After the chaos, there must be great governance, and the people and officials must see that Zhejiang has a new look after the rectification, otherwise others will not think that we people are really tossing." This is Zhu Houzhao's general request, so he has always emphasized this sentence, "Zhejiang Governor Wang Hua has carried out the initiative

To recognise that he has been working hard lately, Mr. Wang, you can give him a certain amount of praise as appropriate."

"Yes. Wechen understands." Wang Wei replied.

"The question of the selection of political envoys and envoys according to the procurators......" Zhu Hou took care of everyone as his own people, "I said it clearly, it is not appropriate for Zhejiang to appoint officials who can only study and have no experience in government affairs at this time."

This is a clear request made by the prince, including Liu Gelao, as well as several Shangshu and Shilang, it is difficult to say anything.

Zhu Houzhao was still reviewing an excerpt a few days ago, he touched his forehead and recalled, "Henan political envoy Wang Qiong, this palace remembers that he used to be quite effective in governing the river?"

This person was first mentioned by Wang Wei to Zhu Houzhao.

"Back to Your Highness, there is indeed such a person, he is a capable official."

Yes, it's capable.

"Transfer him to be the political envoy of Zhejiang."

"Yes."

Wang Qiong is still relatively capable, and he can be regarded as a generation of celebrities. In fact, in Zhu Houzhao's heart, Wang Hua probably won't be the governor for long after Zhejiang, so Wang Qiong is going to take over.

But the adjustment of personnel should pay attention to a rhythm, Wang Hua is still trying to sort out Zhejiang, and Wang Qiong has to start from scratch after changing people halfway, which is too worthwhile.

"What about the messenger?"

Min Jue suddenly spoke, "Your Highness, I would like to recommend Peng Ze, the head of the Criminal Department."

Zhu Houzhao had never heard of this name, so he only asked, "Do you have any experience in local government affairs?"

"Yes, Peng Ze was transferred from the Huizhou prefect to the head of the Criminal Department."

"Okay, after going down, the officials will check the performance appraisal of the officer, and if it is the first or second class, he will be transferred to the Zhejiang Inspectorate."

Min Jue rarely takes the initiative to recommend officials, and once in a while, Zhu Houzhao will agree. And Min Shangshu is also the kind of upright character, if ordinary officials are not bold enough, or hypocrites, they can't get into his eyes.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked, 'If you have experience in local government affairs, you are quite particular. Speaking of which, changing the atmosphere of officialdom and turning it in a pragmatic direction is a long-term process, and it is by no means something that can be done by a holy decree.

It is necessary to emphasize the importance of practical work experience again and again in the process of promoting officials, so that civil officials will put their minds to the localities. Let those officials who only know the difference between gentlemen and villains every day not be popular, this is the goal that Zhu Houzhao wants to achieve. ….

After the provincial officials are decided, the prefects must also choose carefully. In fact, to a certain extent, the prefects at the grass-roots level are more important than the provincial-level officials, and the political envoys and the procurators cannot touch very detailed things, so the prefects cannot engage in exaggeration.

In Zhejiang, a province with large taxes, Zhu Houzhao was unwilling to adopt the method of 'retreating after winning the war, so he called Wang Wei and said, "These people will be handed over to the officials to draw up first."

Generally, when the prince says this, Wang Wei, the official of the ministry, understands.

And Min Jue, who had just retreated, thought about it for a while, and still came out and said, "Your Highness, do you think that some officials who are not from the academy should also be selected and trained?"

[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books at present, @

Liu Jian observed the look of the prince just now, and he didn't dare to say more in his heart, so he said: "The officials appointed by the imperial court are based on whether they are concerned about the situation in Zhejiang, and the officials of the academy and the officials of the non-academy are all officials of the imperial court, and they are also the officials of His Royal Highness, how can you distinguish them?"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but chuckle, this old fox.

"Archmaster, you hear me. Let's listen to the elder of the pavilion and give priority to the benefits of Zhejiang's situation."

Min Jue mentioned it like this, whether it can be done depends on His Highness. These issues are not a big deal, and if you don't agree, you won't chase it.

"Obey the Prince's orders."

Zhu Houzhao touched his chin, "Since it's decided, then let's do it accordingly." Next year, the Cabinet will take the opportunity to send officials to Zhejiang to inspect and see how the local social environment is being restored and whether the lives of ordinary people and businessmen are in order. If there is any problem, report it and solve it. When the time comes, you send the officials into the palace, and the palace will still have an explanation."

When the cabinet officials and ministers heard the prince's words, they all agreed with each other.

Although the prince's rule is a little different from these people, he does things from beginning to end, and tries to be as thoughtful as possible. No matter what it is, as long as it passes through his hand, it will never be thrown away. For example, some of them didn't consider the situation after going to Zhejiang to inspect the eucalyptus.

"Yes." Liu, Li and Xie have no opinion on this arrangement.

"In addition, ......" arranged people, and it was the turn of 'wealth,' Zhu Houzhao picked up another notebook, "This time many merchants' homes in Zhejiang were confiscated, so in addition to silver taels, there are many shops, houses, and workshops...... Because of the large number, Zhejiang is also asking the imperial court to give a solution. So, let's talk about it."

Normally, all the property of the convict is confiscated and returned to the state treasury. However, it is not enough to sell all of these things, and a fire sale will not only sell assets cheaply, but also breed secondary corruption.

More importantly, Zhu Houzhao also has other ideas, such as nationalization, but this requires a special management of a department similar to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. The construction of a big ship mentioned by Mei Kejia is about to come out of this, so Zhu Houzhao is not willing to let go of this opportunity.

It's just that he didn't dare to mention the business of the imperial court in the ten years of Hongzhi, and even if he was already fledgling at this time, it was not so easy to implement, and it couldn't be said that it would be another bloody storm.
