Chapter 415 The people-oriented Da Ming, big cases are frequent

After the imperial court took the Banzhou Xuanwei Division, it was changed to Banzhou Mansion and included in Guizhou.

There are only six prefectures in Chongqing Province, Chongqing Prefecture, Kuizhou Prefecture, Baoning Prefecture, Shunqing Prefecture, Luzhou Prefecture and Xuzhou Prefecture, and the Yongning Xuanwei Division has been included in Luzhou Prefecture.

The area is vast, but apart from Chongqing, there are really not many rich places.

For example, Kuizhou Mansion in the north was deeply affected by the flooding of the Yangtze River, resulting in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, but it was unable to use the Yangtze River capacity to transport things overseas.

The Ministry of Water Resources has proposed the construction of the Three Gorges Project.

But the pros and cons are very large, the main disadvantage is that the river water will swallow a large area of cultivated land, and after the low tide, it will lead to the mud ponding and salinization of cultivated land, and it is expected that 100,000 mu of cultivated land will be lost, and there will continue to be losses in the future, and millions of acres of fertile land may be lost.

The second is serious soil erosion, which washes the downstream sediment into the sea, and loses the downstream sediment in vain, resulting in the downstream economy being damaged.

The benefits are also huge, such as effective flood prevention and disaster prevention, smooth sailing of river boats, and effective power generation.

There are pros and cons to everything.

From the perspective of transportation capacity, the advantages will definitely outweigh the disadvantages, and Chongqing will also become a giant city in the mainland because of the Three Gorges Project.

The imperial court has been discussing for more than 20 years, and there is still no conclusion, mainly because of the distress of fertile land, there are many port cities in Daming, and there is no shortage of Chongqing, but there is not much arable land.

With a population of nearly four billion, eating is a huge headache.

In Daming, food must not be wasted.

In the 39th year of Jingtai, Daming established the Thrift Department to manage the problem of civil waste, and the waste of food and water resources was subject to fines and detention.

All restaurants in Daming have to submit a report on the CD-ROM operation every month, and occasionally there will be random inspections by investigators from the Thrift Division.

Every year, the imperial court will call on the people of the whole world to cherish food and save water.

Including the royal family, the old emperor never wasted food, eight small dishes and one soup for one meal, two meals a day, three simple meals, such as breakfast, afternoon tea, and supper are simple meals, and they eat more casually.

The emperor has eight small bowls of dishes, the concubines have six dishes, the princes, grandsons and ministers are all four dishes, and the canteens in the palace are all of uniform standards.

The emperor could not eat more than eight dishes, if he was in deliberation, he would give them to the ministers, and if he was working alone, he would give them to the palace people.

This kind of gift is not given to whom the emperor has leftovers, but directly to him, and the emperor does not move.

The palace takes the lead, does not waste food, and the officials in the court must also work up and down.

In the forty-second year of Jingtai, there were officials who knowingly found a large amount of food from the dirty bucket, and the old emperor was directly dismissed from his official position and never hired, and his family was exiled to a bitter cold place.

Therefore, the culture of economy was established from that time.

Daming is a country that is extremely lacking in arable land, food, and even water, and the limit of this land to support the population is 2.5 billion, but Daming exceeds the red line of 1.5 billion people.

While it is possible to maintain a steady increase in housing prices, the disadvantage is that there is simply not enough food to eat.

As the population of the vassal kingdom grew, less and less grain was exported, and more and more grain was imported and more and more meat was just needed.

And the real big food eaters are not people, but animals, animals grow up eating grain, and people eat meat and become fat.

In the 60th year of Jingtai, Zhu Jianqi took the lead in eating fish, encouraging people to eat more fish and replace livestock meat with fish.

Little effect.

Although the Ming Dynasty is coastal, it is not a maritime country, a standard continental country, and has a natural resistance and fear of marine life.

Wild seafood, people don't like to eat it.

But the cultivated seafood, but the common people gladly accepted it, because the heavy smell was removed.

Many sea fish do not sell well on the mainland, and the people in the coastal cities like it, but the people in the inland cities don't like it.

Daming has the world's largest natural fishing ground, the Hokkaido Fishing Grounds.

As long as you are willing to catch it, it is enough to supply the whole country with sea fish.

But the people don't like to eat and don't buy it, the merchants can't make money, the sea fishing industry can't be developed, but the aquaculture industry is more popular.

Don't look at the people in the mainland who don't like to eat sea fish, but they are willing to eat crabs and prawns, so there are river crabs such as Dongting Lake hairy crabs, Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, Poyang Lake hairy crabs, etc., and the hottest aquaculture industry is shrimp farming.

The Ming people can consume 170 million kilograms of crab aquatic products and 1.2 billion kilograms of shrimp aquatic products every day, while the consumption of marine fish is only 120 million kilograms.

Some people will say that you can use chicken and duck meat instead of animal meat?

In fact, the ecology is to achieve a balance, chickens and ducks will raise more chicken and duck plague, if you want to change the ecological balance, you have to go to science and technology.

People in these years are still relatively simple, and they have not yet reached the point of risking everything for money.

But there have been drugs such as meat accelerators and clenbuterol, but now they are still used on a small scale, and the people who use them are still trembling, and they are still secretly fed.

In a few years, you will find that there is hard work everywhere.

In fact, the imperial court is working hard in research and development, and it is forced, there is not enough food to eat, and there is not enough meat to eat, and if you don't want to find another way, four billion people will have to go hungry, and someone will have to rebel.

In the forty-seventh year of Jingtai, the old emperor will develop characteristic agriculture, which is the first strategic national policy of the Ming Dynasty, and will not waver within a hundred years.

Since the beginning of the 48th year of Jingtai, there have been agricultural research institutes in many cities, and it is said that the central palace has invested more than one billion yuan in research and development.

Compared to being hungry, health problems are put on the back burner.

In the sixty-third year of Jingtai, the imperial court launched a new chicken seedling, called white feather chicken, a new variety that grew into six months, the chicken portion was large enough, the meat was tender and delicious, and a chicken could grow to sixteen or seventeen catties after adulthood.

Subsequently, in the sixty-fourth year of Jingtai, the Cherry Valley duck was launched, the maturity period of the breeding duck was 182 days, and the average annual egg production of the parent generation was 210~220, and the egg weight was 75 grams.

The introduction of science and technology into agriculture is no longer hidden, and it has begun to be justified.

Not only in animal husbandry, but also in the cultivation of grain, fruits and vegetables, technology is also being used on a large scale.

Every year, the imperial court will invest more than a billion yuan into the research institute for updating and iteration.

Before Jingtai, the yield of grain per mu in Daming was 350 catties, and Jingtai Dynasty introduced new rice varieties, constantly hybridized, researched new rice varieties, and used pesticides and fertilizers, and the yield per mu was steadily increased every year.

In the sixty-fourth year of Jingtai, Chongqing Province, Kuizhou Mansion, the annual output of one mu of rice field is about 760 catties, which has more than doubled.

The government not only grows rice, but also wheat, corn, cassava, barley, sorghum, etc.

Now the people have oil in their stomachs, and they don't eat as much food as before, and with a lot of fruits, vegetables and meat, they can save some food.

Although no one starved to death in the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court still regarded food security as the first strategy.

We must ensure a stable supply of grain, we must ensure that grain prices do not rise or fall, and we must ensure that the peasants have something to rely on for their labor.

As industrialization is in full swing, more and more young people are leaving the countryside and are reluctant to farm.

But the land can't be taken back by the imperial court.

When it was taken back and fell into the hands of capital, the emperor couldn't sleep.

Therefore, in the 53rd year of Jingtai, the social security and medical insurance were covered in the entire rural area, and by the 63rd year of Jingtai, all farmers had been covered.

Farmers who farm at home pay social security and send medical insurance, while migrant workers do not have this preferential policy, because the benefits are paid by the factory and must be paid by the factory.

This is also one of the reasons for the increase in labor costs.

Farmers don't have to pay taxes or social security, and the imperial court really has no choice but to give welfare policies, send them medical insurance, and let them take the initiative to pay the money.

Of course, it is also to ensure that more people farm in rural areas.

From the fifteenth year of Jingtai, when the Ming Dynasty entered the period of slow industry, it promulgated a policy that the land was not allowed to be barren, and once it was verified, the land was confiscated and the whole family was exiled.

Don't look at the huge land area of the Ming Dynasty, but there are many people, after the average, there are many people and few places, the living space is narrow, and even oxygen is not enough.

Daming is a country that is desperately short of land, resources, food and water resources.

There are eight major rivers in the Ming Dynasty, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Heilongjiang River, the Lena River, the Yenisei River, the Ob River, the Zhonghua River, and the Lancang River, but it is still a water-poor country.

With the start of the North Water South Project, it may be that after 30 years, there will be no shortage of water in the north of Daming.

Daming coal and iron resources seem to be a lot, but are buried in the permafrost area, in addition to the mainland, can be mined in addition to the mainland, is the Altai Mountains, Sakhalin, Borneo mineral resources, such as Laos, Myanmar have minerals, but mining is difficult, the cost is too high.

It can be said that more than a dozen large oil mines have been detected in the permafrost area, but how to mine them?

Judging from the resource map, Daming is rich in resources.

But when it is really used, it becomes a resource-poor country.

Zhu Houlang came out of Chongqing, entered Qutang Pass in Kuizhou Prefecture, entered the first gorge of the Three Gorges, and only heard the sound of flowing water, he knew that the waves were magnificent.

But this small city is also very magnificent.

When he entered the small town, someone stopped him and sued him, a real estate developer, who sued the Qutang County Ya for arrears of 100 million yuan to the company, and he did not pay it back.

After understanding, he sent someone to visit the site and found that the owners of the community were also suing, suing the black-hearted developer, the community has not been able to pay the house capital for ten years, and the property in the community does not care about anything except collecting money, and they cannot be replaced.

And the developer immediately had something to say, saying that the county government owed him the project money, and the house capital was mortgaged in the bank, and he had no money to pay back to the bank, so he could not get the house book, and he could not issue the house book to the residents of the community.

Zhu Houlang Zhao came to the county, but the county said that this was a mess left by the previous county, and it had nothing to do with him, and the money was repaid in the public account of the county government, as for the owners of the community who asked to change the property, the county also sent people, but the property and the developer were in the same group, so they relied in the community, driving the people to sue the county government, and they were embarrassed.

made Zhu Houlang angry: "Lone asks you, what did the court ask you to be the magistrate of the county?" ”

"Nature is the governance of the place." The magistrate said calmly.

"So have you managed the place?" Zhu Houlang asked rhetorically.

"It's well governed, the bridge toll was unreasonable before, after Wechen took office, the bridge toll was canceled, and vehicles were allowed to pass freely, and there were several unfinished buildings in the local area, and it was also with the efforts of Wechen that the people lived in the house."

Zhixian said: "This is all a mess left by the previous magistrate, Weichen is indeed a county parent, but he is not a fairy, he can manage everything." ”

Zhu Houlang couldn't hold his handle yet, and he put the responsibility on the head of the previous magistrate.

But if he follows his rhythm, Zhu Houlang will still be a thousand-year-old master.

"The problem of the previous magistrate of the county, he had his own officials to investigate, and he only asked Ling one thing, are you a local county official?" Zhu Houlang asked.

"Yes!"

"Then you should take care of it! If you can't manage it, go home and eat rice! Don't eat a vegetarian meal here! Zhu Houlang's face was fierce.

The magistrate didn't dare to keep his mouth shut, but he was still not convinced.

"Announce that real estate developer, ask him alone, how big the project is, and I can owe him 100 million!" Zhu Houlang knows very well how real estate developers and officials collude, and the water is too deep.

The real estate developer calculated an account for him and explained the arrears one by one.

"You are very powerful, take so much money to advance money and lend it to the county government?"

Zhu Houlang stared at him: "The county government owes you money, so you let the tens of thousands of people in the entire community suffer with you, you know how to operate power very well, and you dare to stop the lonely driver, you are not simple." ”

"The villain doesn't dare, the villain doesn't dare!" The real estate developer knelt on the ground.

"Get up, Daming has already abolished the kneeling ceremony, you don't need to kneel when you see Lonely, get up quickly, you didn't make a mistake, what are you kneeling for."

Zhu Houlang smiled: "Let's talk about it, who taught you?" ”

"Nobody teaches villains." Real estate developers sweat like rain.

"Take my Ming people as bargaining chips, if you are uncomfortable, let everyone accompany you to be uncomfortable, if you are unhappy, let everyone accompany you to suffer, you are bad enough, you are a developer, how did you do it to the property company?"

"The villain has a property company."

"Oh!"

Zhu Houlang suddenly said: "So you didn't have the consent of the owner and settled in the community directly, and you didn't follow the rules and regulations." ”

"Chitose Lord, the owner of the community agrees!"

"Fart!"

Zhu Houlang shouted: "If you agree, why do you want to sue this black-hearted property?" ”

"Come on, drag it out and fight!"

"Lonely to see, who gave him such courage! What is he hiding! ”

Subsequently, Zhu Houlang looked at the magistrate with sharp eyes: "Sing a good double reed, the lonely patrol of the counties, the county officials are afraid of the lonely, worried about what the lonely sees, back to the center, the local officials can't eat and walk around." ”

"You Qutang County is very interesting, you are not afraid of loneliness at all, and you take the initiative to find the lonely ballast."

"Lord Zhixian, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd!"

Zhixian hesitated slightly, and knelt directly on the ground: "Please Chitose be the master of Weichen!" ”

Sure enough, something happened.

Wherever Zhu Houlang went, officials from all over the country avoided him, fearing that he would be targeted, so he hit the muzzle of the gun here.

"Say!" Zhu Houlang sat on the chair: "Lone doesn't like to listen to nonsense, and he hates to be played as a fool!" ”

"His Highness Chitose."

"Weichen reported that last year, Jingcha, Zhongjing Guiwen accepted bribes!"

"Wechen's political performance is excellent every year, but he has been stumbling in this small Qutang County for seven years, watching those officials whose political performance is not as good as Weichen go up, and Weichen is obviously doing very well, but he has not been promoted."

"Last year, Jing Guiwen, the merit examiner, openly asked Weichen for bribes, and Weichen refused to give him gifts, so he gave Weichen a bad evaluation, which led to Weichen's seven-year meritorious career, which was ruined."

After listening to him, Zhu Houlang frowned: "It's over?" ”

"Wechen only knows this, please Your Highness return to the center, please Your Majesty investigate, and avenge Wechen." Zhixian Road.

Zhu Houlang was happy: "Jing Guiwen asked for a bribe in the merit test, you have excellent merit, but you can't get promoted, that's it, right?" ”

The magistrate nodded again and again.

"If this palace is a meritorious candidate, not only will it not let you be promoted, but it will also give you a very poor evaluation and let you get out of the bureaucratic team!"

Zhu Houlang sighed: "Is the injustice in the merit examination an excuse for you to be lazy and slack off on government and not to be the master of the people?" ”

"The court chose you as a local parent to benefit the local community! It is for the people to be the masters of their own affairs! ”

"It's not for you to be promoted and rich!"

"The central government examines the merits of Jingcha every year, not to let anyone be promoted, but to see whose political achievements are not good, get out of the court!"

"You don't even know basic common sense, and you're still going around in circles with loneliness!"

"Lone still thinks that you want to be the master of the people, what is the big thing to report to Lone, Lone thinks that it is the flood in Qutang Gorge, which has caused the displacement of the people, and the above does not report it? I think that the interests of the local people have been damaged, and you have to speak up for them! ”

"The result is a big thing about your promotion and getting rich!"

"Compared with the interests of thousands of people, your personal interests are a fart!"

"What are you doing with an official like you?"

"Tell the people of the world, does the court use a dog official like you? Or do you want everyone in the world to learn from you, with your eyes only staring at the buttocks of the people above, and not looking at the voices of the people? ”

"Lone tells you, a bastard like you, Lone sees one and catches another! Check every day, every month, every year, and find out an official fan like you! ”

"Someone!"

"Drag it out and kill it with a cane!"

Zhu Houlang was furious, he grew up listening to his great-grandfather's deeds, in his impression, Daming is a politically clear, smooth up and down, political harmony, and a hundred flowers blooming in the country.

But he really came to Daming, and when he went to the grassroots level, he realized that it was completely two worlds from his imagination.

He knew that this was a chaos that only appeared after the abolition of the crown prince.

Otherwise, his grandfather and father would not always talk about the good of the Ming Dynasty, and his father also went out to Beijing to inspect when he was young, and he had seen the people.

"Chitose, you don't have the authority to dispose of officials!" The magistrate was terrified.

He thinks that Jingcha is unfair, so he can't get promoted, and now that the emperor's great-grandson is here, and the future emperor is here, he wants to appeal and avenge his grievances, what's wrong?

Do you have to pretend to be the people?

That's all lies!

There are hundreds of thousands of officials in the world, who is the master of the people? Who isn't doing it for their own money bag and for their little family?

Just a few fools in the royal family still believe it, what age is it, who would be that kind of fool!

But why not let people tell the truth?

Didn't the imperial court let the people tell the truth? Do you have to tell lies when you are an official? What logic!

"Lone really doesn't have the power to dispose of you, but Lone has the power to kill you!" Zhu Houlang let people fight.

But there was already a close attendant to advise, Zhu Houlang knew it, so he scared and scared him, he didn't have the power to deal with local officials, even his father.

He asked people to send a telegram to Donggong, and then wait for the call back.

This kind of small county does not have a telephone, either go to Chongqing to make a call, or just shoot a telegram, and Zhu Houlang carries a radio station with him.

Even if there is no electricity in the local area, you can take it to a nearby place where there is electricity to take a telegram.

Wait until after the echo.

He just left Qutang Gorge, and this time he inspected the whole train, not by steamer.

Zhu Jianyu personally replied that the magistrate of the county seized his post for investigation, checked the accounts of the previous magistrate, and arrested and tried the real estate developer.

It also set off a vigorous Jingtai 66-year Jingcha case.

The imperial court directly arrested Jing Guiwen, and Zhu Jianlu reused the East Factory, used the East Factory to interrogate Jing Guiwen, and implicated in a big case.

And Zhu Houlang passed by Dongxiang to go to Boryeong Mansion.

Dongxiang is poorer than Qutang.

But in the records of the household department, Dongxiang has a population of 6 million, is a medium-level city, and is a strong county in Kuizhou.

may have known in advance that Zhu Houlang was coming, and many roads in Dongxiang have been fenced, and it seems that road construction is underway.

Zhu Houlang sent people down to take a look, the construction site was full of workers, very busy construction, one by one workers were full of smiles, and they were in full swing.

Zhu Houlang sat on the sedan chair, pushed open the window and looked at it for a long time, and smiled.

On both sides of the road, there were spontaneous welcoming crowds, who were stopped outside the sidewalk, all cheering at Zhu Houlang.

"See the people on the construction site?"

Zhu Houlang closed the window and chatted with the attendants: "There are a few people who don't know how to use shovels, and they are still shoveling the ground there; There was a person who obviously couldn't stand the smell of earth, so he turned around and secretly wiped his hands with a tissue, but he was reluctant to use a tissue; There is another one who has been smiling at me, his face is quite dark, and he looks like he has been sunburned, but his teeth are too white, and he brushes them eight times a day, right? Have bad breath after sitting too much and brush your teeth every day? ”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but laugh himself.

"Your Highness is really a good eye."

"The cheering crowds on both sides of the road are also arranged, and if you look at their little faces, you can know that they have not been exposed to the wind and sun."

"The weather in this place, I've been tanned after a few trips outside, why are they so white?"

"This place is not big, and the demon wind is not small."

Zhu Houlang laughed.

Outside, I heard Chitose Ye's hearty laughter, and I thought the Sacred Heart was happy.

Zhu Houlang had to sit in a sedan chair, and the rickshaw was not covered, so in case he was assassinated, there was nowhere to hide.

"Chitose, the slave sent someone to ask the people?"

"Don't be busy in vain, you can't find it, our routines have been figured out, it is estimated that there are no real people on these streets, and you can't ask anything."

Zhu Houlang smiled: "It's also happy, sleep well, and talk about it tomorrow." ”

In the evening, Zhu Houlang was hungry and asked people to go out to buy some dinner.

Everything in the hotel is ready, but Zhu Houlang doesn't want to eat it, he wants to eat some folk fireworks.

Wait for the stuff to be bought.

He touched it with his hand and was happy: "This thing is probably made from another place, and then sent to the store where you bought it, and finally sent it here, for forty minutes, and it was heated in the middle." ”

"Doesn't this mean that the original owner of the store is not there, let's buy it, they have to buy it from somewhere else, and then send it over non-stop." The attendant didn't dare to give Zhu Houlang to eat directly, and he had to go through several rounds of poison tests.

I stayed in Dongxiang for three days, and all I saw was a fake face and a fake smile.

Wherever you go, it's all arranged, it's boring.

On the third day after Zhu Houlang left Dongxiang, he sent people to sneak into Dongxiang quietly and visited for two days before catching up with the big team.

The guards around him are sent by the imperial court at any time, rotated irregularly, or rotated randomly, these guards are drawn from the vassal state, some are palace guards, and those from the border armies also have local guards, all of which are randomly selected.

When they are on duty, they will receive a reward from the imperial court, and then they will go back to their respective homes, and the content of the mission will be kept secret.

If Zhu Houlang has always been surrounded by a group of guards, it is very likely that he will be corrupted, on the one hand, it is difficult to see the true appearance of the place, and on the other hand, his safety cannot be guaranteed.

Only the eunuchs and palace maids, imperial doctors, guards with knives, and a few henchmen around him are constant, and the others are randomly rotated.

Some border troops don't know what task they want to perform, and when they arrive at the station, they are told the content of the mission, and the time of the mission is also random, and it all depends on how the center is deployed.

At this time, Zhu Houlang was in Bazhou.

The situation in Dongxiang was summarized in his hands.

"No wonder I don't dare to let Lone see the truth." Zhu Houlang sneered.

The Ming Dynasty is an infrastructure maniac, infrastructure is an important indicator to examine the performance of local officials, and the imperial court will spend a large amount of money every year to invest in local infrastructure.

This place in Dongxiang is different.

Every year, the construction is invested in a few fixed roads, which are repaired almost every year, and the roads in question are regarded as invisible.

Let's not talk about how much money was made out of it.

Let's just say that people commute to work, is it inconvenient? Roads are closed at every turn, and after a year or two, all the shops on both sides of the road have closed down, and people have to sell their houses cheaply.

And then, the officials here are climbing.

Because the roads are well built.

As long as you check it above, you will find that this road is the best in the country.

Nonsense, it's a good road, and it's not good to have diamonds on it?

Is the history of surveillance blind? Or is Goshi blind?

How is it checked?

Why does the imperial court approve it every year? Don't you know that the same road is being built?

There is a way in the place, change the name of the street, the person who inspects it can't find it, and the person who approves the strips on it will approve the strips of hundreds of cities in one go, who will check the streets one by one?

As for the supervision history and the imperial history, they have all collected money.

Officials are evaluated as excellent every year, the highest class, and then, this road becomes a national model road, so that people all over the world can learn from it.

Do you build a road if you learn from them?

Or do you want to learn from them?

"Chi Qianwang Baduo." Zhu Houlang's eyes were gloomy: "Send the report." ”

This Da Ming was ruined by these people.

The resources of a city are all concentrated on a few roads, and relying on these roads, the official position is rising steadily.

If everyone follows the example, who will govern the place well?

Some of the roads that have not been repaired have been muddy and difficult to walk, some are overcrowded and have car accidents every day, and some have been built indiscriminately, resulting in poor traffic, and there are all kinds of problems, but no one cares.

Anyway, as long as you keep an eye on these roads, you will be promoted, who will look elsewhere?

As long as the people do not rebel, they are good people.

The people who do not cause trouble are good people.

"The Supervision Division, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Beizhen Fu Division, and the West Factory are all rotten!"

Zhu Houlang sighed faintly: "A raccoon dog, it's really just a lie to the people of the old Zhu family." ”

Bavaria is not much better.

There are unfinished buildings everywhere, and as soon as you enter the city, you will see the unfinished buildings of a community and a community.

There are also unwiped complaint banners on the wall, all of which say that the local county government is inactive, and the unfinished building does not care.

At a glance, I knew that I had wiped it dozens of times, but I didn't get it clean.

It is estimated that knowing that Zhu Houlang will come to Bazhou, he will start to remove the traces in advance and disperse those who complained.

It turned out that it hasn't been cleaned up yet, which is really interesting.

"It's all deception."

Zhu Houlang shook his head: "You don't need to check, just look at how many unfinished buildings there are in this city, this place is rotten." ”

Is it possible to find a place that doesn't rot?

A big city like Chongqing is just a city that covers hell, and a city like that is half heaven and half hell, and sooner or later hell will swallow heaven.

A small city like this can't be hidden, how can you hide it at a glance?

On the contrary, in such a city, the harbinger of the demise of a dynasty can be seen.

It's just that the supervision history, imperial history, factory guards, and guards sent down before have all been bought, and they won't go back to tell the truth at all.

Anyway, people like the old Zhu family will not come to such a small city, and they will not do it for the rest of their lives.

So, you can cheat as much as you want.

In this world, everyone is racking their brains to deceive the old emperor, as long as he fools him, all that is left is the carnival, promotion and fortune, both.

In the past, Zhu Jianqi didn't do anything, and waited to see what Zhu Jianqi would do.

Zhu Houlang still came to the local county magistrate to ask.

"It's all those damn real estate developers."

"They're fraudsters!"

The magistrate said: "They don't have the strength to develop a community at all, relying on loans and borrowing to develop, as long as there is a wind and grass, the capital chain will be broken, and a good community will be unfinished." ”

"What about the people who buy houses?" Zhu Houlang asked.

"What can be done? can only arrest people and sentence, and the people consider themselves unlucky. ”

Zhixian said: "Weichen also wants to give the people a house to live in, the problem is that the developer owes a lot of debts, this house is still a dispute, no one knows the house capital, and the county government can't pay for the top account, right?" The key is not the account of one family, there are dozens of accounts every day, and I don't know how it is mortgaged? ”

"Then the people have to admit that they have suffered a loss?" Zhu Houlang was dissatisfied with his attitude.

"Chitose, you said it lightly, how can the people who suffer a loss admit it? I come to sue every day, so that we don't dare to show up. ”

The magistrate said: "Tell me, this is a sin created by the developer, what should the county government do?" And the person has been arrested, his money has been squandered, and there is only one rotten life left, you say to be executed, who will pay the money? Let him live, the common people hate it, and even hate us officials. ”

"It's not our fault that we are incompetent, okay, incompetent, but we can't block our house, let our family also jump and live in peace?"

It's a dead knot indeed.

"If it's one or two unfinished buildings, it's just that, so many unfinished buildings, are they all the responsibility of the developer?" Zhu Houlang was too lazy to listen to his complaints.

"Chitose, you don't know, there are only three developers in our county, and all three of them have been arrested, so a total of 4,700 buildings have been unfinished in the county."

"Such a big county, only three developers?" Zhu Houlang didn't believe it, but the accounts that came from the investigation were indeed like this.

"Are they all your local developers?"

The magistrate nodded: "Your Highness, the problem here, Weichen doesn't know, it's a matter when the last magistrate was in office." ”

"What about the others?" Zhu Houlang asked.

"Beheaded."

It's another headless case.

"This is the fifty-eighth year of Jingtai, and it was a sensation across the country at that time."

"In the fifty-ninth year of Jingtai, His Majesty personally issued an order to kill the criminal officials and their families, as well as more than 200 people involved in the case, all of them were executed, and the whole family was exiled to Lena Province, and they were not allowed to return to the mainland for the rest of their lives."

Well done!

Zhu Houlang was excited: "Then what? ”

"Your Majesty will take out all the proceeds of the house and put it into the unfinished building, and the court has allocated some money so that the people can live in the house."

"Huh? What about the house? Zhu Houlang wondered.

"The building is collapsing!"

Zhixian said: "On the seventh day of moving in, a building collapsed, killing more than 700 people, and since then, this large building has been completely unfinished." ”

Zhu Houlang understood that the old emperor was tricked, and the magistrate who was killed was just a substitute for the dead, in order to cover up more crimes, they collapsed the building and put all the blame on the old emperor.

"And then?"

"Chitose, there's no more." Zhixian Road.

"Your Majesty will not care?" Zhu Houlang didn't believe it.

"What can Your Majesty do? How much will it cost if I rebuild a new building? Besides, this money shouldn't be paid by His Majesty! If Your Majesty comes up with this money, won't you let all the real estate developers in the world take advantage of this loophole? Hasn't it become that Your Majesty is raising the people of the world? ”

Zhixian said: "However, in the fifty-ninth year of Jingtai, His Majesty was furious and dragged the beheaded prisoner out, Ling Chi, all family members, Ling Chi!" The entire Bavarian state officials, all of them are late! ”

"Prefect of Boryeong Prefecture, Ling Chi; Baoning Prefecture is in charge of Bazhou officials, all of them are late! Chongqing Provincial Political Envoy, beheaded; Patrol the envoy, beheading; According to the inspector, beheading; Guarding the eunuch, Ling Chi; The officials in charge of Boryeong Mansion were all beheaded! ”

"All the officials involved in the case, the family property was confiscated, the immediate family members were exiled to Lena Province, and the nine clans were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, engage in politics, or engage in business."

"At that time, the entire Chongqing court was killed, and people were panicked."

"In the court, many officials, such as the Baoju officials, the investigation officials, the meritorious examination officials, and the officials of the Qing Officials' Division, were either belittled or beheaded, and it is said that dozens of people were executed, more than 100 people were degraded, and more than 100 people were exiled."

Zhu Houlang saw it this time, and the old emperor really didn't blink an eye when he killed people.

"But no matter how many people are killed, they can't compensate for the losses of the people." Zhixian Road.

"Even though they didn't compensate for the losses, Your Majesty took a bad breath for them! It also tells me that Daming, people-oriented, people-oriented! Zhu Houlang felt that he had done the right thing.

"The problem should be solved, right? How should the people be settled? It's been a few years, and I still can't settle it. ”

All the income from the seizure of the house has been compensated to the people, and the benevolence and righteousness have been exhausted, and there will definitely be no more if you want to ask for it.

"Why don't you demolish these unfinished buildings?"

"Your Highness, who dares to demolish it? It's all people's, and it's not the county government's if it's unfinished, besides, is it demolished for people to rebuild? If you can't rebuild, can the people do it? ”

Zhu Houlang said: "Standing here like this, how can the appearance of the city be maintained?" ”

"What if you don't stand?"

The magistrate said helplessly: "It's still developing, outsiders are worried that this city is a ghost town at a glance, who dares to come in and take a look?" ”

When Zhu Houlang found out about this county, he was not afraid of the powerful, and dared to speak out, so he asked his name.

Na Zhixian rolled his eyes, and he didn't know what my name was after chatting for so long: "Weichen's name is Tang Gao, a new branch jinshi, and he has just been an official here for less than three months. ”

"What are your plans for this state?" Zhu Houlang: This is the school examination.

"You have to use money for planning, where can Weichen get money? Want it from the court? The imperial court knew that this place was full of unfinished buildings, how could it give money to Weichen? If you don't have money, how can you talk about development? ”

"Then you're going to get by like this as an official?" Zhu Houlang hates Tang Gao's attitude, which is too realistic.

"It's better to die than to live, you want to belittle Weichen, or report to the center, let Weichen be a clerk, anyway, Weichen can only say three words, no way." Tang Gao said it very clearly.

A new branch jinshi, the normal channel for entering the office, is to first observe the government in the Hanlin Academy, and then devolve to the locality, starting from the section chief, but this kind of jinshi from the grassroots rise is a formality, and soon can enter the core official position in the county government, and will sit on the county magistrate in six years at most.

But this Tang Gao, the new science and technology jinshi, sat on the magistrate of the county, either because he was bribed, or because he was talented and was specially promoted.

Obviously, like the former.

Zhu Houlang's evaluation of him is talented but not virtuous, and cannot be reused.

"Tang Zhixian, don't you know the identity of Lone? Dare to speak like this in front of Lonely? ”

"Naturally, I know, but Weichen won't lie, and Weichen will speak like this in front of His Majesty."

Tang Gao saw through Zhu Houlang's mind and explained: "Weichen is not bribing the superior. ”

"Instead, the Ministry of Officials divides the counties of the world into 369 and so on, like Langzhong and Nanchong are all high-class counties, and they are excellent third-class counties, and this Bazhou, although it is strategically located, is inferior and inferior because of the large number of unfinished buildings."

"A new champion like Weichen can stay in the center to observe politics, but Weichen wants to come to the local experience, so he is arranged to be a magistrate in a ninth-class county."

"You're the new champion?" Zhu Houlang really didn't see it, this guy's ghost appearance can be admitted to the top prize?

Tang Gao rolled his eyes again, I look ugly, but I am very gentle.

"And such a county, if it wants to rise again, it must either invest a huge amount of money and demolish the unfinished houses, or it will have to get by, live one day at a time, no money, and it is useless for the gods to come."

It's the truth.

But no one wants to listen to the truth, like Zhu Houlang, who is somewhat happy, he likes to listen to rhetoric, regardless of whether he can do it or not, anyway, it is very credible.

On the contrary, an honest person like Tang Gao is not suitable for the current officialdom.

"Go down." Although Zhu Houlang admires Tang Gao's talent, he has thorns and is not easy to submit.

"Wechen retired." Tang Gao did not hesitate at all.

Even if there is wealth in front of him, he doesn't care.

If he cares, he can stay in the center to watch the government, and with his champion qualifications, he will stay up for twenty years, and he will be the next king.

But he is not without support, he and Yang Shen are friends, and Yang Tinghe is his teacher.

But he didn't use Yang Tinghe's power.

He is conceited and talented, and if he is given a platform, he can show his talents, but when he is assigned to this kind of ghost place, he simply lies flat.

But he forgot that when he was the champion in high school, he wrote "Song of Persuasion" with emotion:

Life is seventy years old, first except for the young and then the old.

When there are not many things in the middle, there are more heat and troubles.

There are too many officials in the court to do, and there is no way to make more money in the world.

The official has a lot of money, and he has a lot of worries, and he ends up in vain.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is not clear, and the flowers are not good after the Qingming Festival.

The moon is under the moon before the flowers, and the gold bottle is poured down in time.

Please check the people in front of you and bury the grass several times a year.

The grass is high and low, the old and new graves, and the poor cold food is not swept away.
