258. It turns out that the answer is here
Bo Yi found that the disciples of the sect who entered the court as officials were all sitting in a row, and the others were not very suitable for getting along with the disciples of the immortal family.
Because Wen Zhong is a prince and an old minister of the Three Dynasties, this row is full of heavyweight ministers in the court.
But no one in this row was rewarded, and the previous awards were all insignificant petty officials.
This made the ministers a little uncomfortable on their faces, the collection of field taxes for the wax sacrifice is a summary of the year's harvest, and the banquet of the wax sacrifice should also be a summary of the courtiers' administration for a year.
Isn't it true that the more meritorious the courtier, the more he deserves to be rewarded?
Bo Yi couldn't help but think of the legend about Lu Yue that was circulated in the court song.
This unlucky one can't get close.
Fei Zhong on the stage was good at observing words and feelings, saw the reactions of the important ministers in his eyes, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
All the rewards just now were really random, and not a single important minister was rewarded.
Fortunately, His Majesty had already reached this point, and left a secret mark on the bamboo slips of the important ministers, and the richest reward in the banquet must belong to the important ministers.
Soon, Fei Zhong read the reward of Wen Zhong and the others.
The rest days are as little as one month, and as many as half a year, and all of them are sent to vacation.
Boyi's originally frowning brow suddenly relaxed, and sure enough, it was so.
If it is really according to what the king said, this random reward just destroys the main purpose of the change?
The king is wise and powerful, how can he lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot!
So, it's not.
On the surface, it is a random reward like a child's nonsense, each fighting for it according to luck, but in fact, it is secretly controlled.
All the important ministers of the court have been given a longer rest day, which is by no means explained by luck.
That way, everything makes sense.
His Majesty held a banquet and invited three groups, the old ministers, the new ministers and the nobles, in order to make the three groups get along more harmoniously.
As a summary of the year, there will inevitably be a reward, and if the reward is given according to the contribution, it will inevitably chill people's hearts.
Don't think about it at all, at the end of the year, Lao Chen must have contributed the most.
Not long after the new minister took office, it is impossible to have many merits, let alone the nobles, there is no one in the court at all.
However, the strategy of randomly rewarding on the surface and rewarding according to merit on the inside is much better-looking.
The nobles knew that they had merit, but they would not say that they had such a status because of their family background, because of the number of slaves and the number of land, and they would only lament that they had bad luck and failed to receive rewards.
The important ministers are all talented people, as long as they use their brains, they can see the deep meaning of His Majesty, and they can make such a come, that is, while rewarding the ministers, let them not be arrogant.
It is also easy to understand that the important ministers of the court are basically old, and they do need more rest time, and the nobles are not officials at all, which is equivalent to rewarding them in name only.
The name of the king of the Xuan is a random and secretly operated reward, which takes into account the faces of everyone present, making the three groups who have contradictions more harmonious.
Zishou was satisfied, and although he failed to promote the conflict between the three groups, he finally completed the task.
successfully gave the important ministers of the court a holiday, and the old man Wen was even thrown by him to Beihai to see the snow, which was enough to watch for three months and see the early spring.
I see who else in the DPRK and China can get in the way!
By the way, I also observed some aristocracy, although they seemed to be smiling, but they must have scolded in their hearts, who can afford such a high price of charcoal?
The son was excused by the excuse of being sleepy and left the table, allowing the ministers to continue eating, drinking, and merrymaking.
Bo Yi was still thinking, the only thing he didn't understand was why the king of Xuan treated the nobles preferentially.
King Su was obviously hostile to the nobles before, and made things difficult for the nobles in every way, why did he suddenly change his character?
Seeing the king leave the table, he realized that he had forgotten the original intention of coming here to attend the banquet.
In addition to playing music, he wanted to take the opportunity to bring out the flaws in the art of extravagance.
Under the art of extravagance, everyone consumes a lot, the material reserves are insufficient, the price of charcoal disrupts the market, the supply of charcoal exceeds the demand, everyone goes to burn charcoal, and other materials are greatly reduced, which promotes this phenomenon.
Insufficient supplies ....
Bo Yi suddenly realized, it turned out that the answer was here.
It turned out that His Majesty expected all this, and he didn't need to admonish himself at all, His Majesty had already checked and filled in the gaps by himself.
The aristocracy went into business and brought foreign materials into the court, and everything was different.
For example, there are far fewer nobles to consume materials at the mouth of the Guanjiang River and Chentangguan.
There are also the territories of the various princes, although the princes admit that there is a certain reason for the extravagance of governing the country, but there is no doubt that it is easier to build a reputation for frugality.
Just like Ji Fa, the second son of Xibohou, after Xiqi was robbed, everything in Xibohou's mansion was simple, and the materials and grain were distributed to the people, which saved a lot of reputation.
In this way, the aristocracy could fill another gap in the art of extravagance.
Bo Yi held back the advice for a few days, and the fetus was stillborn.
Chonghou Hu ate chicken legs, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Boyi's sudden realization, and spit out a chicken bone.
He nodded again and again, Bo Yi was worthy of being a great sage, and he understood His Majesty's deep meaning so quickly.
The art of extravagance, business is a national policy, this is something he realized after deliberately going to the street to observe it at that time.
........
The next day, while the child was sleeping.
Countless carriages and horses have already taken advantage of the dawn to set off one after another.
The servants of the nobles carried the seal letter or other identity marks, under the banner of the Peng family, the Cao family and other nobles, and a team of chariots and horses, mighty and endless.
With the elite disciples of the clan who returned from Shanglin Yuan to solve their doubts, they have found a bright way out, needless to say, as well as the strong support shown by His Majesty with the Wax Sacrifice Banquet.
On the surface, it seems that the palace bought charcoal at a high price, and after the price of charcoal skyrocketed, it needed to spend more money to keep warm.
It can be calculated carefully, because of the high price of charcoal, the price of all materials has risen, so that the benefits of trading are higher.
The behavior of the nobles did not arouse the idea of the son, and the business was prepared for more than half a year, and only when the nobles began to do business, they could collect huge business taxes and learn from King John.
In terms of timing, it is even just right.
When it comes to the next year, when Li Jing returns, most of these nobles have already traveled several times, regardless of whether he loses or earns, and all of them collect taxes.
The ministers also didn't care about the nobles doing business, these people were not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and their autonomy was quite high, so it would be good not to be dissatisfied and hinder the governance because of the high price of charcoal.
But there was one person who was particularly concerned about it.
Huang Ming is Huang Feihu's general, who came in cloth clothes and appeared in the market.
He inquired about everything in the market, the price of every item, and his shoulders trembled involuntarily.
The King of the Rings has calculated to such an extent!
Everything that the Northwest Protectorate, and even the various small tribes in the north have done so far, has been pushed away by the King of Xu!
His face turned red with excitement, and his body even trembled, making an ahhhh
Your Majesty...... It's really a generation of Ming Monarch Holy Lord.
Although he was only Huang Feihu's general, and he was only an inconspicuous official in the Northwest Protectorate, Huang Ming felt honored for himself as a member of the Great Merchants.
At this time, he already had a premonition that an incomparably powerful country was beckoning to him.
To be able to participate in it, even if it is just to make a contribution, it is worth proudly mentioning to my children and grandchildren a hundred years later, with this peaceful and prosperous world, your grandfather and I have also contributed!
Huang Ming took out a pitch-black stone from his sleeve and walked towards the Xinjia Mansion.
It was Xinjia who pointed out this thing at the beginning, and the Northwest Protectorate found the way forward, and the great grace must be thanked.
