Chapter 505: Time is running out, kill and open the way! (Ask for subscription)
The crowd was silent.
Although they didn't like Ji Heng's words, they also knew that this was probably the best way Ji Heng could give.
It's better to replace people directly.
They don't get any benefit.
Although there are a lot of benefits at the moment, at least he can land safely, his family can also get a certain amount of continuity, and he has also given certain preferential treatment to court officials.
It's very forgiving in comparison.
Ji Heng also gave them great respect, but after all, the affairs of the world are not only related to China, but also related to the East, they can agree, but this move has a great impact on the Kanto region.
How does Ji Heng want to deal with it?
Zhang Cangdao: "There is a problem with the lower officials, in the opinion of Mr., redefining the order of the world and fixing the annual salary, which will definitely reduce the income of most of the low-level officials, and will also cause great dissatisfaction at the bottom." ”
"What should I do with the gentleman?"
"In addition."
"And the change of the fields."
"In the world of great disputes, land mergers are serious, and many fields are occupied by local clans."
"Although the fields have been released to a certain extent after a turmoil, there are still many in the hands of local powerful families."
"This move could cause unrest in the region."
"The last point is that it will take at least ten years or more for these policies to be implemented, and during this time, is Daqin really ready? Can you really afford that kind of expense? ”
"With Mr. Yi's suggestion, the expenses that the imperial court needs to increase over the years are too much, even if there are so-called officials and gentry who pay food in one piece, but it still can't be filled."
"What should you do, sir?"
"There is no small matter in the world, even if it seems easy, it is likely to become a far-reaching event in the end."
"I have to check it."
"I have to be cautious."
Zhang Cang brought out the confusion in his heart one by one, and did not turn a blind eye to it because he was in the reform mansion, and even deliberately let it go.
It is true that he is an official of the Restructuring Mansion, but he is also a Daqin official.
The other courtiers bowed their heads.
Even if they agreed, they would not necessarily be able to convince other officials, especially those in the Kanto region, and these unspoken rules were of little use to local officials.
And the local officials suffered a great loss.
Not to mention that you can't hold office all the time, you still have to pay taxes, and you have to accept a certain degree of demotion in rank, which may cause many officials to be dissatisfied.
At that time, those policies may not be implemented.
And.
And most importantly, where the money comes from.
If you want to reform the system, you must throw a lot of money into it, especially Ji Heng is very ambitious, there are many aspects to change, and the investment in money and food is even more massive.
There is no money.
Everything is rice-free cooking.
Ji Heng laughed, a touch of shrewdness and cunning flashed in his eyes, the attitude at the bottom is indeed important, but to some extent, it is not important.
The policies he introduced will not be achieved overnight, but will give the local government a certain amount of time, during which the local officials will slowly accept it.
Overall.
It is a screening of officials in the Great Qin system.
The capable go up, and the mediocre go down.
Ji Heng smiled and said, "Time is the antidote to all problems. ”
"Once these policies are announced, they will indeed cause a lot of sensation and shock in the local area, but these policies are actually just blowing the wind and will not be implemented in a hurry."
"When it is really implemented, it will be at least more than ten or even decades later, at that time, whether it is the official gentry who pay food in one piece, or reduce the annual rank of officials, it has long been imperceptibly accepted by the world."
"Again."
"The imperial court has been giving them opportunities."
"The change of the official system will provide a lot of room for promotion at the bottom, and in the past ten or so decades, if the officials who are currently serving cannot seize the opportunity, it can only prove one thing."
"It's that they don't have enough power."
"If you don't have enough power, how can you have more benefits?"
"In the next ten years, it will be a gladiatorial arena for officials all over the world to compete with each other, and during this time, more and more talented officials will rise to higher positions."
"Some people may be directly promoted because of the increase in the population under their rule, or they may be favored by the court because of the improvement of economic production under their rule, or they may be promoted because the speed of resuming production is far better than others."
"It's the best of times."
"It's going to be the worst time in the world."
"Many people at the bottom will rise in the wind and become the tide makers of the world, soaring, and there will be more people who will be knocked down under this big wave of sand and completely lost to everyone."
"This wave swept not only the officials, but also the local people, and this is an era when the gap between the bottom is gradually widening."
"It is also the era of Great Qin's take-off."
Hear the words.
Everyone's eyes sank.
They could already feel a rushing pressure, this is a torrent of the times, in Ji Heng's hands, like the wind in the valley, constantly accumulating strength, and finally turning into a storm.
Take the world by storm!
Ji Heng smiled and said, "As for Zhang Shaofu's worries, I can actually answer them. ”
"There is no doubt that the emergence of the Minjue will inevitably lead to a decrease in the annual rank of local officials, otherwise such a huge system will not be able to support it at all."
"This is why I propose that the officials and gentry pay for food in one piece, also to reduce the burden on the court, but you seem to have thought of one thing wrong."
"The world is dynamic."
"With the increase in population, the increase in productivity, and the continuous casting of Qin Banliang, the world's gross domestic product is increasing, and the world's money and grain are also constantly improving."
"Therefore, the money and grain that Daqin can collect will also increase, in this case, the current annual reduction rank will not actually be implemented, but will depreciate over time."
"The officials at the lowest level are still of this age, but with the development of the world, coins are no longer as valuable as they used to be."
"And with the rise of official positions, other salaries are improving, but at the beginning, the scope of tax payment is higher, but with the promotion of income, more and more people have reached this line."
"It's been a slow acceptance process."
"In an era that conforms to the development of the times and the trend of history is constantly advancing, they will indeed have objections at first, but seeing that it will not affect them now, so there will not be so many controversies in comparison."
"In addition, the court provides a lot of opportunities, which will also make these people very encouraged, and they will even think that they will one day be able to pay taxes for the court."
"To show that you have reached a certain status and identity."
"Time has erased all these controversies."
"And with the premise of this salary cut, it will also motivate the low-level officials to continue to work hard, and then further promote the development and rest of the world."
"Overall."
"This is just a deliberately released message to stir up the situation at the bottom, so that the officials at the bottom have to work hard."
For Ji Heng's words, others were still a little confused, but Zhang Cang, who was in charge of the economy, understood, and Ji Heng made a bold assumption.
That is, the world will make great progress.
In the case of this development, Daqin will be significantly improved in all aspects, and correspondingly, it is the promotion of officials, and he did spread the estimate of paying taxes and reducing salaries, but in fact, under more than ten years of development.
'Salary cuts' are just standing still, and the higher level of tax payment will gradually become a point sought after by the world.
Ji Heng is to eliminate the negative impact through the development of the times, and even use it as an incentive to the world.
And these ideas are very bold.
After the world settles down, it will indeed make great progress, there is no doubt about it, but there is no one in the world who is afraid that Ji Heng is so confident, and he dares to directly bet that the world will be greatly improved.
All of Ji Heng's ideas are based on the rapid development of the world, which is actually something that many officials dare not think about at all.
Come to think of this.
Zhang Cang suddenly understood.
Why did Ji Heng bring Li Erlang, Gongyi and others into the restructuring mansion this time, and he has always emphasized improving the status of hundreds of schools such as the Mo family.
Herein lies the reason.
He wanted to make the most of the skills and experience he had accumulated in the world of controversy, and then promote the rapid development of the whole world, not only agriculture, but also handicrafts, and then extended to commerce.
Let it feed back to the court.
Then to achieve a more positive promotion, through the past ten years or even longer, let the world digest this change.
Smooth and stable transitions.
This is an extremely bold prediction, only with great confidence in Daqin would he dare to do such a thing, and Ji Heng is such a person.
Zhang Cang smiled bitterly.
He didn't know what to say.
This kind of unprecedented confidence in Daqin, I am afraid that Fusu himself is not so convinced, but Ji Heng dares, not only dares, but also dares to use it as a cornerstone to make a big bet on the world.
If you win, it will be an unprecedented prosperity.
If you lose, you will be ruined, and you will be discredited for a long time.
This kind of courage and courage is rare in the world.
Zhang Cang faced Ji Heng and arched his hand slightly: "Mr. is righteous, Zhang Cang admires." ”
Ji Heng laughed.
Zhang Cang can perceive it, he is not surprised, as the best economic manager of our time, Zhang Cang is indeed more likely to perceive the key than others.
Looked at.
The other important ministers looked at each other with a slight difference.
They looked at Zhang Cang, and then at Ji Heng, their brows furrowed slightly, and they already knew in their hearts that Zhang Cang probably saw the deeper meaning in it.
They were silent.
Just frowned and pondered.
Gradually, I also thought of some aura, a different color flashed in my eyes, and after a long time, someone spoke softly, and the eyes that looked at Ji Heng were full of complexity and solemnity.
Ji Heng's face was calm.
He gave everyone a little time to digest, and then said slowly: "As for the field, this is a must, since ancient times, the field has been the most important resource in the world. ”
"The vast majority of people in the world rely on the fields to survive, if the vitality of the fields is not stimulated, the world will still be lifeless and will not be greatly improved."
"With the development of time, land annexation will deteriorate further, and the big clans lying on the fields will only continue to squeeze the development potential of the world, which is absolutely unacceptable."
"It's going to be very controversial."
"But what?"
"The world belongs to Daqin, and the land is also owned by the imperial court, how can we tolerate the long-term theft of the local clans? Or even for yourself? ”
"There is no bloodless change in the world."
"Daqin will give the officials in the system a certain amount of tolerance, and will also give them a certain amount of time to adapt to adjustment, and then they will be screened one after another."
"But that's only within the system."
"As for the agriculture and industry outside the Great Qin system, as well as some 'scholars', Daqin doesn't care about their thoughts and feelings at all."
"There's only one attitude."
"If you go with it, you will prosper, and if you go against it, you will die!"
"If someone doesn't want to, then kill him."
"If you can't kill one person, then kill ten, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, and kill these people in the local area, and these people who kill them dare not easily disobey the imperial decrees, let alone steal the land."
Hear the words.
Everyone's hearts were in shock.
Ji Heng finally showed his fangs.
His restructuring has such a great impact on the world, how can it be so peaceful, it will definitely breed a lot of turmoil and unrest.
And Ji Heng obviously took it into account.
His solution is very simple and clear, that is, by killing, relying on force, to force the people of the world to surrender and recognize.
This is indeed the cheapest method.
Ji Heng's eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "The vitality of the field must be stimulated, and the enthusiasm of the people cannot be curbed or even consumed because of the field. ”
"That's the bottom line!"
"Anyone who wants to provoke or challenge has to ask their own heads, whether they have the stakes of Daqin's sword, and whether they can withstand ten thousand arrows piercing their hearts."
"What Great Qin needs is not to bargain with the locality, but to make the local obey orders, and this is what you have to do."
"I want to inform you of the Chamber of Commerce this time, and now that Great Qin has embarked on a new journey, this is a time when the whole empire needs full support, and you may be dissatisfied."
"But the compromises that the court can do have been given, and if you are not satisfied, then you can only prepare for the worst."
"Time is running out."
"The world has been in turmoil for too long, and in order to avoid falling into long-term turmoil again, and in order to create a more peaceful and peaceful environment for the world, reform is imperative."
"This is the desire of the people."
After speaking.
Ji Heng bowed his hand slightly towards Meng Tian and the others, and then left the main hall with a step.
He's done with everything he can say.
As for how Meng Tian and the others will choose, it is no longer up to him, and he believes that Meng Tian and the others are all smart people, and they will not let themselves be the target of public criticism for the sake of immediate benefits.
Everyone watched Ji Heng leave, and their hearts couldn't calm down for a long time.
There was no one in the hall who said a word.
They are all thinking about the benefits and harms of the changes promoted by Ji Heng, and they are also thinking about what choices they should make, and how they should deal with them under the choice.
This is no small matter.
It's just that the more they think about it, the more they have to admit that at the moment, they have been framed, and they can't escape at all, so they can only choose one of the two.
And once nodding.
The trend of the world has nothing to do with them at all, all of them will fall under the leadership of Ji Heng, and they will all become executors.
The difference is huge.
Half a day.
Everyone moved their eyes to Zhang Cang.
Seeing this, Zhang Cang's face changed slightly, and he scolded secretly in his heart, in the end, how could it still be his business? (End of chapter)
