Chapter 13 Hongwu's officials and dogs are not appropriate
After some discussion with the ministers of the cabinet, Yan Chenhao quickly drafted a new regulation of Yulu.
First of all, the most significant point is that forty percent of the physical objects have been removed, and all of them have been changed to Lu rice.
This is also what the cabinet leaders strongly demand.
Although in fact, their families themselves are all big landlords, and even if the court does not pay money, they can live well, but if they make a little money, it is not a little bit after all?
And every time the imperial court sends down forty percent of the real thing, if the cloth or something is better, although it is quite good to make good money into this thing, but it is good that your family can still use it, if you send down some spices and dyes or something, it is really not used at home.
Take it out and sell it, the dignified court officials go to sell things, even if it is just the subordinates under their hands, they feel a little embarrassed.
If some officials in the family are well-off, they can still get by, but there are also a lot of scholars born in poor families in the court.
Sometimes on the street, you can really see officials from poor families selling things bitterly, not to mention anything else, the face of the court is also lost. What should the people think when they see this? The lord of the imperial court, who looks like this now, doesn't look as good as us.
Is your Ming Dynasty no longer good?
The key is that the price set by the imperial court for Lu Mi is generally lower than the market price, resulting in fewer things exchanged for real goods, which is equivalent to losing part of it for nothing, which is really a cheat.
That's it, Yan Chenhao, who has a good temper, wants to scold his mother.
It's really a bitter thing for a long time! Therefore, it is not easy for the emperor to be willing to change the Yulu system, so it must be changed!
As for the rice, although it is also in kind, in fact, when it is distributed, it is half of the two, and part of the rice is converted into silver, which is also convenient - anyway, even if it is all silver, you have to buy rice.
Fortunately, the original treasure money in history did not appear in this era - this is a big storm caused by a certain Fengshen pterosaur, before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Yan Ling told him directly in front of Zhu Yuanzhang: Money is not as much as you want to print, you don't have a reserve of silver taels, you are waste paper.
Emperor Hongwu also understood a little, so after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang basically did not print the "famous" Ming treasure banknotes, and naturally there would be no more headaches for officials like Lu rice and treasure banknotes.
Then, Yan Chenhao raised the official's salary again.
From not entering the stream, to from the fourth grade, the emperor in this interval didn't care about their life or death at all, and gave the least amount of money, Yan Chenhao basically doubled, plus that thirty or forty stones, such as five hundred stones from the fourth grade, in the price situation at that time, it should have been able to live quite comfortably.
is more than four grades, it was okay to give it, but it is also not much, Yan Chenhao raised their income by three to four hundred stones.
For example, the salary of Zhengyipin reached 1,500 stones, and under the price at that time, he could already live quite well.
This adjustment table was unanimously approved by the cabinet ministers, and it was successfully submitted.
When Zhu Changxun saw this, he was so distressed that he finally persuaded himself to agree, and suddenly regretted it a little. Because according to this increase, the money he spends on the salaries of court officials in the future will be several times the original, and he can no longer fool people with those rags.
And this thing is still long-lasting, and it will be given every year in the future.
He also wants to save more money to achieve his great achievements.
In Zhu Changxun's eyes, the Ming officials have been living for two hundred years with that salary, so why should he give more money? Why can't everyone learn from Yu Qian and Hai Rui?
His mind raced for a moment, and he really came up with an idea.
"My teacher, why bother. If I want them to stay clean, I have a way. ”
"How about restoring the law of Hongwu? Those who embezzle more than 60 taels will be killed! If there is torture such as picking up skin and grass, as long as a group is killed, and then there are brocade guards to monitor the world, it will definitely ensure that officials will not dare to be corrupt. ”
The emperor's face showed a murderous aura, which showed that he was not joking, and he even said with a little smugness:
"When Taizu was in his time, weren't the officials in the court very honest? They can also use this money to live well! ”
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Yan Chenhao, only to find that his teacher had completely stayed in place.
Yan Chenhao was shocked by Zhu Changxun's thoughts.
Just kidding, restoring the old Hongwu system, Yan Chenhao didn't even dare to think about it!
You must know that even he, after reading the history books, came to the conclusion that it was also an official of Hongwu, it was really inappropriate.
Wait, I'm not scolding anyone.
Yan Chenhao scratched his head.
Forget it, I can't remember, I don't care about him.
Anyway, if this is really done, the Ming Dynasty will have to be completely chaotic.
Restoring Zhu Yuanzhang's system at that time would only have one result - the officials either chose to leave their posts because of extremely high pressure, treating the court as a beast, or they were separated from the court.
When the time comes, the world will be in chaos!
The Hongwu period can be done like this, because Emperor Hongwu himself is the founder of the country, eloquent and strategic, and the world has just experienced a reshuffle, so it can be suppressed, but it does not mean that the Ming Dynasty, who has gone through two hundred years now, and the Wuxing Emperor, who grew up in the deep palace, can be suppressed!
"Your Majesty, by no means! Please put this thought out sooner! Yan Chenhao blocked his disciple's method with a single sentence.
Then, he explained to Zhu Changxun why he couldn't do this.
However, this effect is not significant.
Because no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang is, he is also the ancestor of this dynasty, even if his system has drawbacks, there are some things that he can't say. And there are a lot of things under the table, and they can't be brought to the stage, so they can only realize that no matter how master and apprentice the two are, they are now also monarchs and ministers.
This caused Zhu Changxun to fully understand what Yan Chenhao meant and realized the seriousness of the matter.
His face was very ugly, and he thought it was not in line with the teacher's wishes before he was rejected.
Obviously, he thinks this method is very good, didn't he use this to deal with those disobedient landlords before? The end result is immediate!
He suddenly felt a burst of decadence - everything was vetoed by the teacher, and he was in charge, so what was the use of ascending to the throne by himself?
He waved his hand, no longer entangled, and directly agreed to Yan Chenhao's suggestion.
Yan Chenhao was also shocked by what he had just said, and failed to notice his disciple's reaction, and after getting permission, he left in a hurry.
And Zhu Changxun, he stared at Yan Chenhao's departing back, and did not say anything for a long time.
