Chapter 603: Weighing Technique
Above the jade steps.
Zhou Qian enjoyed such a solitary atmosphere.
He is about to forget that once upon a time, he also said the same thing in the court, since the war subsided, he was old, and after the establishment of a crown prince, the hearts of the people in the court showed signs of dissipation.
Many decrees were not delivered, and what he said was thrown around as a burden, and eventually fell to the ground.
Therefore, what he valued Ning Wuxian was not only the benefits of burning glaze, but that he urgently needed a young and promising minister who could deter this group of loyal ministers who planned to be the old courtiers of the current dynasty to impact the alliance of these people and disintegrate the many factions.
So far, the effect is very significant.
Ning Wuxian had not yet entered the court, and the things he invented and manufactured brought him great deterrent.
There is no doubt that what he says today about the increase in armaments is what he says.
"Ji Aiqing is reasonable, I am approved, this matter will be handed over to you to deal with, if the military needs cannot be taken by the household department, I will come out of the private treasury."
The military expenses from the private treasury are raised by soldiers and horses loyal to the imperial power.
Zhou Qian had been waiting for this day for a long time, and in addition, he had other ideas for this batch of newly added soldiers and horses.
"The newly sent soldiers and horses will implement the policy of Jinling Mansion's cantonment of soldiers and tuntian, if you fight, you will be soldiers, if you don't fight, you will recuperate and train diligently, Ji Aiqing, do you understand?"
Ji Shangshu and Zhou Qian are monarchs and ministers who wear a pair of pants.
The content of today's court discussion, as early as last night, was confirmed by the palace guards in a private message.
Hearing Zhou Qian's words, Ji Shangshu bowed his hand.
"The minister understands His Majesty's intentions, the Jinling Mansion's policy of garrisoning troops and tuntian, can indeed reduce military needs, and can also meet the needs of foreign soldiers stationed at the border with peace of mind, I believe that this increase in troops will bring a number of new military households to Daxing."
What?
In Daxing over the years, the number of military households has been decreasing, and at this time it is necessary to add more?
There is also the strategy of Jinling Mansion to garrison the tuntian...... I seem to have heard of it, but there are a total of 500 soldiers stationed in Jinling Mansion, and there are only 2,000 people in the upper and lower counties, so no one cares about it.
At this time, hearing the conversation between Zhou Qian and Ji Shangshu, some people subconsciously opened their mouths and wanted to ask rhetorically, what is the effect of this new strategy.
But seeing that the colleagues around him were silent, he couldn't help flashing a tongue and quickly closed his mouth.
And finally realized a reality.
The direction of the wind in the court seems to have changed.
The courtiers who usually talked about the military arrangements and opened their mouths to oppose them today are like leaving their mouths at home, and no one opens their mouths.
It seems that in the future, this court will become the hall of words of the main battle faction.
"Your Majesty, Erchen believes that in addition to increasing troops on the border, the militia in various places should also be trained more......
"Ahem!"
Zhou Qian coughed heavily, interrupting King Kang's words.
King Kang raised his head and looked at his father on the jade steps in confusion.
It is rare that when my father carried out military orders, there was no resistance, shouldn't we make persistent efforts to further increase the military and national defense forces at this time?
The number of soldiers registered in Daxing has been reduced from 800,000 soldiers to less than 500,000 today.
That's it, which also includes government soldiers from all over the country.
If there is really a war, shouldn't you prepare for war in advance?
"Old Fourteen, you didn't have breakfast this morning, did you?"
"Back to my father, I really didn't eat."
"Then you have a slower breakfast, and you can't eat hot tofu if you're in a hurry."
“……”
King Kang looked at his father's helpless appearance, and finally realized that he was too anxious.
Looking at the courtiers of the Jin Dynasty, who were ready to attack him with words at any time, he thought that if he lost this battle with a stupid mouth, he might even have to nullify his father's plan to increase troops to the border.
He took a playful step back and stood back in the line, not speaking again.
Seeing this, Zhou Qian was secretly satisfied: Fourteen, this old boy has lived for half his life, and finally knows how to advance and retreat, and it is not in vain the experience of many days.
"Ji Shangshu is in charge of the increase of troops on the border, and the matter of training militias in various places will be discussed later, who will have something to do?"
Zhou Qian said, looking at Qin Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.
Qin Shangshu, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came out of the queue.
"Your Majesty, the Royal Glass Workshop has been completed, and the day before yesterday, the stoves located in the Xian County Lord's Mansion were moved to the Imperial Glass Workshop, last night, the first batch of glazed bowls has been successfully fired and can be sold, many shops have submitted their complaints to the Ministry of Households, hoping to be able to undertake the first batch of royal glazed cups, the pricing is very considerable, it is expected that the first batch of glazed cups, at least one million taels of income into the private treasury."
One million taels of income into the private treasury, that is pure earning!
If you sell it by reselling it, you can start with at least 100,000 taels!
The courtiers present could not help but be moved by anyone who heard this number.
In particular, the courtiers of the family who had already sent the name of the shop to the household department for examination of the qualifications of the property were all eagerly awaiting, waiting for His Majesty's favor.
Only the An family members are all drooping their heads, waiting for the sky to change.
No way.
Who called the person who cooperated with Ning Wuxian to fire the glass was Zhou Jingxian, and Zhou Jingxian was the daughter of King Kang.
They settled down this time, and even if they handed over the name card to the household department, it is estimated that they can only run away.
I don't know if there is any property in the name of King Kang in those famous posts, if there is, then Your Majesty doesn't have to think about it at all, of course, the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders.
Just when a lot of people think so.
Zhou Qian's eyes fell on Emperor An's brother.
"I remember An Baolou, which has always been famous for selling glass cups in the capital, this time the first batch of glass cups will be sampled by An Baolou, Uncle An Guo, are you willing to work for me?"
Uncle An Guo raised his head and looked at Zhou Qian above in shock.
I always feel like a pie in the sky has fallen on my head, and the filling in this pie is still gold.
"Why, Uncle An Guo is unwilling?"
When Zhou Qian saw Uncle An's reaction, he knew that his move was unexpected, and he caught many people off guard.
Uncle An Guo opened his mouth, simply knelt on the ground directly, and saluted Zhou Qian non-stop.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Wechen is happy! Wechen is very happy! ”
"It's cold on the ground, get up, be careful to break your head again, and turn around to make people think that I punished you."
Zhou Qian laughed.
Uncle An Guo also smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he glanced at King Kang beautifully, with a smug look on his face.
And those who are still ready, if His Majesty hand-picks the property of the courtiers of the King Kang faction, they will attack it in groups, seeing such a result, they are not only happy for the Jin Palace, but also faintly envious.
But no matter what.
There is no need for them to open their mouths in this matter.
As for those courtiers who were dissatisfied with this result, how dare they be tough with the supporters of the Jin King faction, and they can only hold back if they are not convinced.
Then.
Zhou Qian's eyes fell on Xie Chang'an, who had just stepped down from the post of secretary of the Ministry of Industry not long ago and was still familiar with the process of the Ministry of Officials.
After the happy thing was finished, it also succeeded in blocking the mouths of those courtiers who usually liked to talk nonsense.
Next.
It's time to talk about the not-so-happy things.
"Everyone, Aiqing, who still has this music?"
"Your Majesty, the minister has a book! The minister wants to expose the household department Ge Shilang for using power for personal gain! He used his authority to revise the merit evaluation for five officials in the capital, and intercepted the report submitted by the prefecture and county for the seven officials outside Beijing, and deceived the superiors and subordinates, which was a heinous crime! Not to be tolerated! ”
