Chapter 300 Personnel Arrangements

The farce of the school boycott and the market boycott subsided quickly, and the large-scale arrest and closure of shops by the officers and men of the New Army lasted only one day, and when the panicked people hiding in the house went out the next morning, peace had been restored to the entire Qingzhou capital city. The streets and alleys have become clean, even the garbage has been swept away, and the blood stains on the ground have been cleaned.

If it weren't for the fact that there were still soldiers and soldiers of the New Army patrolling the streets, many people would have felt that yesterday's events were a dream.

To the delight of local residents, there is still a steady stream of vehicles entering the city at this time, and these vehicles from Jimo Yingcheng, Laizhou Prefecture, are loaded with grain, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea and other goods.

A guy even shouted directly on the side of the road: "Buy grain, buy grain, everyone come and buy grain, this is the rice noodles in the Wangjia grain shop in Lingshan Weiwangjiazhuang, that is the grain shop of Lao Taishan, the chief soldier of Qinglai Town, the price of grain is three percent lower than in the past, the price is cheap, and the goods are worth it!" ”

The surrounding people smiled when they heard this, and they called their friends to spread the word, and everyone flocked to buy food and goods.

The prefect Wang Congyi walked into the street, followed by the same governor Guo Mintai and the general judge Han Jinchu, and more than a dozen officials followed.

At this time, the three of them saw that the market had been restored to peace, and they could see soldiers and civilians queuing up to buy grain everywhere, all of whom were behaving in a proper manner, and did not dare to fight or rob. You can also see the soldiers of the new family patrolling the streets and alleys, and they are in good order.

"Lord Futai, it seems that Mr. Liu's methods are really amazing, he stabilized the situation in one day, and by the way, he eradicated the opposition forces in Qingzhou Mansion in one fell swoop, and this skill is unique in Shandong!"

Wang Congyi looked at Han Jinchu who was speaking, and nodded, which can be regarded as agreement.

"My lord, where are we going now?"

"Let's go."

Wang Congyi said: "Let's go to the General Soldier's Mansion to see General Liu, there has been chaos in the city for a while, and there must be an explanation at the beginning and end." ”

Han Jinchu and Guo Mintai glanced at each other, both of them were a little afraid, but after thinking about it, they didn't do anything, so they nodded in agreement.

At this time, Liu Yan was arranging his subordinates in the General Army's Mansion, and the three commanders of Qingzhou Left Guard, Qingzhou Central Guard, and Qingzhou Right Guard were finished, which meant that these three positions were vacant.

Liu Yan directly appointed Zhang Yichong, the commander of the left battalion, as the commander of the left guard of Qingzhou, Wang Bo, the commander of the right battalion, as the commander of the right guard of Qingzhou, and Shen Tuochong, the commander of the middle battalion, as the commander of the middle guard.

"The three of you will take office today, and the first thing is to rectify the soldiers of the three guards in Qingzhou, eliminate the old and weak, the military oil, and the ruffians, and reorganize the available people into the battalions, just to fill the shortages of the battalions."

"In addition, the town decided to move the Qingzhou Left Guard to Boxing County in the northwest, the Qingzhou Zhongwei to Shouguang County in the northeast, and the Qingzhou Right Guard to Zhucheng County in the southwest.

Wang Bo, Zhang Yi, and Shen Tuo received the order.

Liu Yan continued: "Zhang Lei, the official in charge of tun, is in full charge of the grain affairs and field tax collection of Qingzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion, and Yue Ming, the money and grain official, and Zhao Min, the administrative officer, take over the corresponding affairs of Qingzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion. ”

"The commander Tian Huixu can recruit the sons of good families as soldiers in the prefectures and counties of Qingzhou Prefecture and Laizhou Prefecture, and the recruited people will be turned into military households, and the corresponding cultivated land will be distributed.

"Yes!"

After Liu Yan completed the personnel arrangement, he suddenly heard that Wang Congyi, the prefect of Qingzhou, Guo Mintai, and Han Jinchu, the general judge, were visiting, so he smiled and said to his subordinates: "It seems that the prefect can't sit still. ”

The crowd laughed.

"Alright, let's go and get busy."

"Yes, Lord Lord."

A moment later, Wang Congyi, Guo Mintai, and Han Jinchu came to the main hall, and Liu Yan smiled and beckoned the three to sit down.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, which can be described as a group of harmony, and after touting each other for a long time, Wang Congyi talked about the turmoil in Qingzhou Mansion.

Liu Yan immediately took out the confessions of the surprise interrogation of Huang Mingde, Zhao Wei, Cai Yingwen, Pan Tu and other officials.

"Three adults, take a look, this town has been transferred from various camps to interrogate the prisoners in prison overnight, and these are the final case files of all of them!"

"In addition, the town has ordered that the family property of all the prisoners be allocated to Yue Ming, the money and food officer, for disposal, and the families of all the prisoners will be detained in the barracks for care, waiting for disposal."

Liu Yan looked at Wang Congyi, Guo Mintai, and Han Jinchu, who were frowning and looking through the case file, and continued: "I don't know if it's appropriate for this town to deal with it like this, and I ask the three adults to consider it together." ”

After Wang Congyi read a few case files, he said bitterly: "These thieves are full of the favor of the imperial court, and they don't want to repay the service, but they do such a thing to bring disaster to the country and the people, it is really the ambition of the wolf. ”

He scolded for a while, and then said to Liu Yan: "But this time there is chaos, the relevant people are guilty, I don't know how the chief soldier is going to deal with it?" ”

Liu Yan said: "This time the chaos is so big that the town thinks that all the criminals and all the case files should be handed over to the Governor's Palace, and Governor Lu will report to the three divisions of the imperial court for trial and ask for a ruling. ”

For Huang Mingde and other scholars, civil officials, etc., Liu Yan, as the chief military officer of Qinglai Town, has no right to dispose of it, and the captured commanders such as Zhao Wei, Cai Yingwen, and Pan Tu also need to be asked to be issued according to the law of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, Liu Yan has already obtained the result he wants, not only completely controlling the military power of Qingzhou Mansion, but also dealing a heavy blow to the local forces, and now there is no need to cook for him, that would be too domineering.

As for the relevant criminals, Liu Yan is already ready to be handed over to Wang Congyi, the prefect of Qingzhou Prefecture.

Wang Congyi admired Liu Yan's attitude, at least on the surface, Liu Yan, the chief military officer, still respected himself very much. Of course, the more this is the case, the more Wang Congyi feels that Liu Yan is not simple. knows how to stop in moderation, even if he is an old official in the sea for many years, he does not necessarily have Liu Yan's scheming.

Now that so many civil officials and military generals in Qingzhou Mansion have been taken down, Liu Yan will definitely take action against the squires everywhere in the future, and it is expected that this matter will definitely cause a stir in the court.

But it has happened, and the most important thing is to deal with the aftermath. How to make the funeral a happy event is a challenge for the prefect Wang Congyi.

Liu Yan has already set a tone, that is, the opposition forces in Qingzhou Mansion must be uprooted, whether it is a squire, a military general, a civil official, or a scholar, as long as they oppose Liu Yan's rectification of the military and government, they will all be eliminated.

After some turmoil, at least 80 merchants, more than 30 gentry, and dozens of civil and military officials inside and outside Qingzhou Mansion were overthrown by Liu Yan.

Wang Congyi, Guo Mintai, and Han Jinchu all together on the way over, and after Liu Yan confiscated the property of these people, he could at least win more than 100,000 acres of fertile land and more than one million taels of assets!

Although the three did not encroach on the farmland of the military households, it did not mean that the three were not greedy for money, so they also expressed their desire to share the profits.

Liu Yan smiled, and immediately expressed his willingness to pay the money, and Liu Yan paid all the taxes payable in the next five years in Qingzhou Mansion. In addition, Liu Yan also gave Wang Congyi, Guo Mintai, and Han Jinchu a big gift each, and the specific amount was enough to make the three of them happy.

As a result, the two sides reached an agreement: Liu Yan continued to arrange the personnel arrangements for the garrisons and relevant officials in various parts of Qingzhou Prefecture, Wang Congyi was responsible for reporting the chaos to the imperial court, and Guo Mintai and Han Jinchu fully cooperated with Liu Yan's new policy.

After sending Wang Congyi and the three of them away, Liu Yan also began to think about the future business development, and with the intervention of the Chamber of Commerce, I believe that the businessmen of Qingzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion will be much more honest.

In fact, since Liu Yan came to this era, he has always been wary of businessmen in the late Ming Dynasty. This is not only because merchants in the late Ming Dynasty generally had various vices such as hoarding and price gouging. Moreover, because most of the businessmen at this time were circulation-type businessmen, not production-oriented businessmen in later generations, it was difficult to create value for the whole society.

To open a factory like a businessman in later generations, it is necessary to recruit a large number of workers, and on a large scale, it can even solve the employment problem of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people. And they produce goods and create value. At this time, the merchant only kept the goods in circulation, and had the function of purchasing and transporting.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Liu Yan also made up his mind that in the future, in Qingzhou and Laizhou, merchants should be encouraged to open factories and set up workshops, which can promote employment and enrich the people on the one hand, and increase their own strength on the other hand.

As for the confiscated cultivated land this time, Liu Yan is ready to hand it over to Zhang Lei, the official of Guantun, and the next step is to recruit civilians in Qingzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion to turn them into military households, and these cultivated land, together with the wasteland to be reclaimed in the future, will be the ration field for the new military households.

And the confiscated money is the capital for the next stage of development.

On the same day, Liu Yan and Wang Congyi jointly wrote an official document to report the cause and effect of the incident to the Governor's Yamen and the Governor's Yamen.

At the same time, Liu Yan and Wang Congyi also went to King Heng's mansion to report the chaos, which was regarded as an explanation to King Heng Zhu Youdi.

In the Governor's Palace, Lu Xiangsheng kept shaking his head when he looked at the official document, and General Lu Huaiying shouted beside him: "Liu Yan's temper and courage are really amazing!" This time, he lifted three commanders in one go, as well as so many civil officials, military generals, gentry, and so many student businessmen, this is ...... daring."

Lu Huaiying didn't know how to describe it halfway through, and then he said to Lu Xiangsheng: "Governor, there will definitely be some waves in the court when this matter is caused by the court, and the governor has to help." ”

Lu Xiangsheng sighed and said: "This matter is too big, it still depends on the meaning of Governor Yan, but don't worry, judging from the current situation, I am afraid that no one in the court will dare to touch Liu Yan, that kid, even I am a little afraid now." ”

At this point, Lu Xiangsheng's expression was solemn, and he didn't know what he remembered.

In the governor's yamen, Yan Jizu looked at this joint official document, and his first reaction was to be startled, but looking at Wang Congyi's name on the official document, Yan Jizu was relieved a lot, with Wang Congyi's joint name, he also shared a lot of firepower for Liu Yan.

Looking at the official document carefully, Yan Jizu was even more relieved, as soon as the big hat of this slave thief and thief and the enemy was buttoned down, who could say anything against it, the only thing that could make people sick was that Liu Yan's methods were too rough, but this was already a minutiae, and it was reasonable to say that he was a martial artist.

Later, Lu Xiangsheng discussed with Yan Jizu, and also jointly wrote a letter to the imperial court, which "ended" the chaos in Qingzhou's capital city.

Some people died, but not completely......
