Chapter 308: Meet the Hundred Officials, It's About to Succeed!

Nanjing City, Fengtian Temple.

"See the National Teacher!"

Hundreds of officials worshipped, and their voices were uniform.

After these days, Li Xiao has come up with various means, and he has already obeyed the officials of the Nanjing City Imperial Court, and he is happy and convinced.

Who would have thought that in less than a year, Nanjing has really changed.

The strong and the soft, the people handed over the land, the housing area blossomed and bore fruit, and the villages were all over the village, and they had begun to take over the management of each staggered area, forming a system.

I have to say that the dormitory area that the national teacher came up with is really perfect, and it completely solves the last step of the full landing of imperial power.

Although the expenditure is very large, the upfront investment is also very large.

But it seems that when the village enterprises are gradually built, they will be able to be self-sufficient.

Even if there are no village enterprises in some villages, they can be self-sufficient, because all the land belongs to the imperial court, and the villagers rent land and need to go to the dormitory to rent it.

The rent is given first, and those rents are equal to taxes, which are enough to run the operation of the dormitory, and many more can be handed over to the court as taxes.

In other words, the work of asking the squires to help collect taxes has become a thing of the past.

Everything was done by the imperial court, and the imperial court no longer needed to rely on the local squires to solve it.

The 14 Prefectures of Nanzhili are the richest places in the world, belonging to the plain production area, and after the complete success of the reform, the remaining places will naturally come into being, and the heroes and powers in other places are far less than here, and it is easier to promote the implementation of national policies.

Moreover, I heard that the Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang has also arranged for the vassal kings in various places to learn from the national teacher Li Xiao in accordance with the policy of Beiping, so that the vassal kings can implement the new national policy locally.

The feudal kings who were idle all over the country finally found something to do.

Before, they were constantly stripped of their authority, and they were all about to become wasters.

And Zhu Yuanzhang made the change smooth, this time the net, re-let each vassal king master the three guards, the Ming Dynasty military system, one guard is 5,000 people, and the three guards are 15,000 troops.

With the escort army, these vassal kings once again had the strength to weigh the local officials, so they rushed to change the law in their territories and show it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Because they seem to have heard some rumors, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang plans to expand his territory, and these vassal kings will go to war, conquer more territories, and seal them to other places.

The vassal kings are naturally willing to stay in the land of the Ming Dynasty, and there are emperors like the fourth brother Zhu Di who constantly weaken their authority and guard against them.

When the time comes, after Zhu Yuanzhang dies, won't they become pigs in captivity, and it is better to go to other places to be the overlord of the soil.

Zhu Di also has no opinion on his younger brothers regaining the army.

They really need to have some strength, so as not to seal the territory of other countries and not be able to control the situation when the time comes.

For various reasons, in addition to Nanjing, in fact, changes have begun to take place in all parts of the country.

Zhu Gaochi also supported in all aspects, and state-owned enterprises are now under the control of the imperial court, which can give more agency power to various localities

Li Xiao naturally got the news.

It turns out that the eldest brother Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be recuperating in Nanjing, but in fact, he is not idle, and he is laying out the world.

As for his father-in-law Zhu Di and brother-in-law Zhu Gaoxu, they have not been idle during this time.

They are also getting rid of those disobedient families in the Wa Kingdom, and Yao Guangxiao is over there, and they are also carrying out changes, intending to completely turn the Wa Kingdom into the appearance of the Ming Dynasty.

I heard that half of the people of the Wa Kingdom have been killed, and in order to get rid of those strange customs, such as the language and writing of the Wa Kingdom, as well as the temples, and believe in these messy things, there are many people of the Wa Kingdom who have resisted.

How could Zhu Di get used to it, he directly began to slaughter, and there was no grass everywhere he went.

The history is known as "Yongdi sweeping the widows", and the resisters cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Although this sweep swept away sixty percent of the people in the Japanese Kingdom, Zhu Di didn't care at all, because these were not the people of the Ming Dynasty.

And the rest of the people are cowardly and dare not resist, for such people, Zhu Di did not kill them all, and kept them as slaves for the people of the Ming Dynasty.

To develop the Japanese state, labor is also needed, and these are the best livestock.

Just when Li Xiao's reform in Nanjing was about to end, the reform of the Wa Kingdom was also coming to an end, and it became a silver mine and shipyard in the Ming Dynasty.

Yao Guangxiao had already established several large shipyards in the Wa Kingdom, and most of the local residents of the Wa Kingdom went to mining or to work as drudgers in the shipyards.

After learning about the situation in the Wa Kingdom, Li Xiao admired his father-in-law Zhu Di very much.

I silently praised my father-in-law in my heart: Well done!

In addition, Li Xiao also wrote a letter to his father-in-law overnight, asking him to issue an order that the people of the Ming Dynasty who moved to Donghai Province were not allowed to intermarry with the local people there.

so that the blood does not become polluted.

Li Xiao specially emphasized, father-in-law, you are the true dragon emperor, and the people of the Ming Dynasty are the descendants of the dragon, but don't let the messy bloodline pollute the bloodline of the people of Yan and Huang.

Zhu Di thought about it and felt that it made sense, and then replied with one word: Accurate!

As a result, the people of Donghai Mansion, which was originally the Wa Kingdom, were completely reduced to slaves, and the hardest and most tiring work was handed over to them.

It is estimated that in another hundred years, these natives will be completely extinct, and Donghai Mansion will be completely in the shape of the Ming Dynasty, and the people in it will also be Han Chinese.

At this time, the civil and military officials of Fengtian Hall stood left and right, waiting for Li Xiao to speak.

It's a routine morning pilgrimage, and they have to come here every day to report on the situation.

Li Xiao bowed slightly, saying that it was okay, quite an emperor's taste.

At this time, except that Li Xiao did not sit on the dragon chair, his authority and power were no different from those of the emperor.

The eunuch shouted: "Something to start, nothing to retreat from-"

All the officials in the hall are here, after all, even if they don't do anything every day, they can get a full attendance, and they don't dare not come, the most common sentence of the national teacher is: It is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes if you are not an official for the people.

For those officials who do not act, the national teacher is very unkind.

But fortunately, the national teacher's handling method is softer than Zhu Yuanzhang's.

The way the national teacher deals with people is to directly dismiss them and demote them to the common people.

And Zhu Yuanzhang's way of dealing with it is to click it directly, and he won't tell you so many big truths.

In comparison, everyone is gradually able to accept the national teacher.

But at this juncture, no one wants to be dismissed.

Because I seem to have heard that the national teacher is going to divide the room for the officials.

At this time, Yu Shi, the right attendant of the household department, walked out.

Today's Yu Shi has been promoted from a petty official to Li Xiao.

The original right waiter was demoted to the Ministry of Industry by Li Xiao. When he arrived at Shilang, because the entire ministry was Li Xiao's decision, he would promote whoever he wanted

Yu Shi, the left attendant of the household department, arched his hand and said: "National teacher, the minister reported on the recent reform of the law, according to the statistics of the household department, after the Beiping mobile film team came, the enthusiasm of the people to hand over the land was high, and the handover has reached ninety percent.

Nanzhili has a total of 280 million mu of cultivated land, of which 200 million mu is occupied by the people, including the land handed over by the nobles before, and now 200 million mu has been handed over, and the compensation amount is 4 billion taels of silver, and all transactions have been completed.

Our dynasty has recovered most of the land, leaving only large households and a small number of ordinary people with land that has not yet been handed over, and there are 80 million mu remaining. ”

The voice fell.

The officials of the entire imperial court were shocked.

They originally thought that the idea of the national teacher using money to take back the land was simply a fantasy.

But now, the national teacher has really done it.

Spending four billion taels of silver, where did this money come from, it's terrifying!

I heard that the land handed over by the people was all traded in cash and silver, and four billion taels of silver were not as high as a mountain? Where did you get so much silver?

In fact, these officials were right.

It is true that the imperial court does not have so much money.

It is true that the imperial court does not have so much money.

The current treasury of the imperial court is only 100 million taels of silver.

But don't forget, there are also the national bonds that were collected before.

But even the addition of national debt is not enough.

It was Li Xiao who embezzled the bank treasury of Damin Bank.

The silver standard, the UnionUnion Federal Reserve, the silver in it cannot be used, but in extraordinary times, it is treated very much, and Li Xiao, as the direct controller of Daming Bank, secretly moved.

But in fact, the real cash silver is only one billion taels, which is still not enough.

So Li Xiao asked the people to deposit their money in Daming Bank.

Because there is interest, the people must be willing to save.

Many people suddenly get a few hundred taels of silver, put it at home for fear of being robbed, and the money is reluctant to pay management fees, but it is stored in the Daming Bank opened by the imperial court, which is both safe and has interest, why not do it?

In this way, silver becomes the number in the passbook.

Under recycling, four billion taels of silver will be paid.

But obviously, these operations are difficult, and only the mature Daming Bank can complete such operations.

"The national teacher is really a man of God."

"The pillar of the country, the cornerstone of the Ming Dynasty."

"I admire the national teacher."

Hundreds of officials patted their sycophants and congratulated them on such an achievement.

In addition to being domineering, the national teacher has done everything he said, and he asked himself, if he were them, he wouldn't be able to finish it even if he was stupid.

Li Xiao nodded and said, "Well, Yu Shi, the statistics are good, and the follow-up data will continue to be reported in detail." ”

"Yes, National Teacher."

Yu Shi bowed his hand, and then retreated to his position.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jinglong walked out and reported: "The national division, the last general has already dealt with all the cases accumulated by the Law Reform Division. Among them, there are 230 cases of compulsory demolition of buildings, all of which have been forcibly demolished and resolved, and now all the housing areas have been landed. In addition, there were 80 cases of obstruction of the execution of the power of the district chiefs, which were also resolved by force, and the district chiefs in various places were able to carry out the national policy, and now as long as the decree issued by the imperial court was issued, it could be transmitted to every common person in the village. ”

During this time, Li Jinglong was very busy, and when Li Xiao went out to solve the rebellion, Li Jinglong was in Nanzhili to deal with the official business of Haoqiang and trouble.

Those who refuse to sell the land, the forced demolition that should be demolished, do not make so much sense.

Li Jinglong has more than 30,000 troops in his hands, and there are many capable generals, plus he is familiar with the situation here, although it is a little tricky, but most of them rely on his ability, and things are also handy.

"Okay, good job." Li Xiao said with a smile: "Cao Guogong has contributed to the country, and his contribution is indispensable, and after returning to Beijing, I will definitely report to the saint." ”

"Xie Guoshi." Li Jinglong bowed his hand and retreated.

Then, many officials reported on various things.

The reform involves a wide range of things, and there are many things that are ridiculous and prevaricated.

For example, when it comes to unfair land distribution, the historical problem of Chen Liu, and the issue of land ownership, many people see money and lie about the land area, and there is also the problem that the county governor cooperates with the people, cheats, and thinks more about compensation.

There are a lot of small problems, and Li Xiao can't take care of these small problems at all.

It is impossible for one person to do everything, which is why officials are needed.

Fortunately, now the officials of the Nanjing Imperial Court don't need Li Xiao to say more, they are also trying to solve it in their own ways, and they have reported one after another, all of them are here to ask for credit.

Li Xiao also nodded one by one, expressing his recognition of their merits and promising that he would not treat them badly in the future.

At the end of the early dynasty, the president of the Nanjing branch of the Daming Bank reported: "Yu Guoshi, the total amount of compensation issued this time is 4 billion taels of silver, but the deposit received by the Daming Bank is only 3.3 billion silver, and 700 million silver should be left behind. ”

Hearing this, Li Xiao frowned slightly, and said: "That's not good, raise the interest by another one percentage point, print newspapers, increase the publicity of the benefits of Daming Bank, and let the people deposit their money in the bank." It's not that the national division has to ask them to save money, the problem is that the Baixin people have just sold their land, and suddenly get a large amount of money, and the incident of indiscriminate use of it has led to the destruction of the family, and if you really look at such a thing, it will lead to an increase in the crime rate. ”

The president arched his hand and said: "It's the national teacher, I will do this immediately, and when the interest rate is raised by one point, the deposit rate should rise sharply." ”

Li Xiao nodded, "Hurry up." ”

At this time, an imperial historian walked out and reported: "The national teacher, the minister found that the gambling houses that the national teachers had knocked out before are now showing signs of resurgence, and many small gambling houses are secretly set up among the people, or hidden in the homes of people, or hidden in the mountains, and they pull the people to go to gamble."

"What, and what?" Li Xiao's face changed.

Because I had just returned to Nanjing from other places, I had just heard about it.

Before, Li Xiao hit a number of gambling houses, as long as it was a gambling house, all of them were eliminated, Li Xiao strictly stipulated that he didn't want to see the existence of any gambling house anywhere in Daming.

The intensity of the blow was very large, and it directly let Li Jinglong's Qianhu named Zao Wou-Ki lead an army of 1,000 people to attack.

This Zao Wou-Ki is very fierce, and he wiped out all the gambling houses in one go, but he didn't expect that now these people see that the people are rich, and they will resurrect it.

Is this worth it?

Those gambling houses are good at killing pigs, and there are many masters of thousands of arts, what thousands of doors and eight generals are positive, mentioning, anti, off, wind, fire, removal, rumors, under some operation, where can the people play with them, in the end can only be ruined, and all the money just arrived is thrown into the water.

"Li Jinglong."

"The end will be."

"I order you to immediately send capable generals to investigate this matter, no matter how hidden the gambling house is, all of them will be captured, and those who set up the gambling house will not change their ways, this time you don't need to show mercy to your subordinates, and directly exterminate them."

"The last general commands."

"Green Dragon."

"The end will be."

"Beizhen Fusi fully cooperates with Li Jinglong, investigates this matter, and treats it as a top priority."

"The last general commands."

Li Xiao kept giving orders and sent his most confidant to solve the matter.

Scourges such as gambling and drugs must not appear in the land of China.

Seeing this, the hundred officials saw that the national teacher's tolerance for the gambling house was almost zero.

After giving these instructions, Li Xiao arranged for officials to prepare for a conference.

A meeting for all the Haoqiang families, there are not many people, but there is a lot of land in hand, a total of nearly 50 million acres.

On average, every large household has tens of thousands of acres of land in their hands, and many even reach more than 100,000 acres.

Most of these lands are tax-free, which is why the Ming Dynasty had so little tax revenue.

You must know that in the Song Dynasty, the tax was more than 100 million taels of silver, but in the Ming Dynasty, it was only 20 million taels, because there were too many Xiucai accumulated and too much tax-free land was sheltered.

And now, Xiucai Tax Exemption has been abolished by Li Xiao, and these lands will naturally be in the hands of the imperial court, and after these families are resolved, the land annexation problem can be completely solved.

In this way, Nanjing's reform can be regarded as a successful landing.

When everything was over, Li Xiao waved his sleeve robe and turned to leave.

Today's Li Xiao can also experience it, when Zhu Yuanzhang feels, he doesn't have to say hello when he leaves.

"Retreatβ€”" the eunuch shouted.

"Congratulations to the national teacherβ€”"

Hundreds of officials bowed down to send off, and the cards were full.

It seems that the days in Nanjing are coming to an end-

(ps: This plot in Nanjing was not written well, and it was originally intended to reproduce the process of changing the law omitted in Beiping, reflecting Li Xiao's ingenuity.) When I started writing, the author found that the knot, such a plot, is really difficult to write. Writing and writing, even the protagonist writes invisibly, not enough, and what is written is always not the right appetite. But there is no way, at the beginning, I have to finish writing it, and I write it here, and the Nanjing plot is about to end. After this plot ends, the author will start writing a new plot, the new plot is to return to Beiping, continue to develop the story with Lao Zhu's family, and there are some absolutely new plots. Before writing,The author will make an outline of a volume.,I hope to write the next plot more exciting.。。。 In addition, at the end of the month, ask for a monthly pass. (End of chapter)
