Accompanied by Ma Jun, Yuan Qi inspected the results of the last six months of the prison. www.biquge.info In addition to those weapons and armor that have long been finalized, armor and related agricultural tools for Guang, Ming and Tongzhou, the development of new warships and Tiannu Sanhua has also begun to take shape, and what particularly surprised Yuan Qi is that although the new warship has not yet been manufactured, the lever has been developed in advance.

Yuan Qi was also fortunate enough to witness the power of the clap stick. This kind of water warfare is a big killer, by Wang Yezi and Ma Jun perfect in advance, by two huge logs seven zhang long combination, one log straight on the ground, play a fixed and supporting role, the other log is and the log between the log there is a very small angle of acute angle, between the two logs by the cow tendon and other things that are not afraid of water to form a rope linked. The tendon passes through the pulley on the first log, restraining the second log from hanging in the air.

The first trial, as the impact on the second log, did not tie anything. When Ma Jun loosened the rope at the bottom of the first log, the second log responsible for the impact fell from the sky with huge inertia, and the ground trembled. Subsequently, Ma Jun asked several craftsmen to work together to carry over a large grinding disc weighing fifty catties, tie the grinding disc to the top of the second log, and then everyone worked together to pull the fallen log back into the air through the rope on the fixed pole. Prepare for a second trial.

This time, because of the fifty pounds of weight tied to the top of the impact bar, the impact bar descended faster, and the power emitted was naturally greater. With a loud bang, the ramming rod slammed to the ground, and the grinding disc tied to its top smashed a five-step square pit on the ground.

After two tests, Yuan Qi was very satisfied with the results of Ma Jun and others, and once such a clap pole was equipped on a new warship. It is bound to bring the combat power of Gan Jing's Qilin Naval Army to a new level. Moreover, the use of the lever is very simple, and it is also very easy to maintain, as long as it is checked regularly to ensure that there are no cracks on the fixed rod and the body of the impact rod, and that the pulley on it is not damaged. This is not a problem for the Kirin elite.

According to Ma Jun, every time they make a racket stick, they also make related accessories. Provide it to the sailors so that they can change it at any time. As for the main body of the two logs, they are made of sturdy wood, which can last for a year at the shortest.

Several other new technologies were inspected. Yuan Qi made some comments on the development of the Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers and new warships. Experience and knowledge in the afterlife. Helped Wang Yezi and Ma Jun overcome several problems. After that, Yuan Qi walked out of the prison, and on the way back, the matter of the official's corruption and perversion of the law always lingered in Yuan Qi's mind and lingered.

Return to the Metropolitan Governor's Palace. Yuan Qi immediately summoned all his subordinates to discuss and strive to nip things like corruption in the bud to the greatest extent. When everyone heard that there were officials who had corrupted the law, their hearts were full of anger. Most of these people have the experience of being alone with Yuan Qi, or have been born and died on the battlefield with Yuan Qi, and their loyalty to Yuan Qi is undoubted, and the phenomenon of corruption is naturally not what they want to see, so they have expressed their opinions and put forward various effective methods.

After some discussion, Yuan Qi finally decided to take a two-pronged approach, on the one hand, to increase the salary of all officials in the five northern states, and according to the previous system of Yulu, in the corresponding ranks, Yuan Qi would increase the amount of Yulu to them. Even for the lowest official position, Yulu has also received an increase of 30 stones, and the heads of civil and military affairs like Zhuge Liang and Qi Tian have increased their salaries by 200 stones, and according to the size of the position and the amount of contribution, the increase in Yulu for officials at each level is different.

On the other hand, it is the establishment of the Ombudsman. As the name suggests, the Supervision Department is responsible for supervising those illegal things in the civil and military official system. Unlike Qianlong in terms of its responsibilities, the Ombudsman only has the power to supervise corruption, while Qianlong has all-round supervision. The specific responsibility of the Supervision Department is to supervise and inspect economic cases that have occurred in the past or are occurring, and at the same time be responsible for the supervision and implementation of the use of each sum of money and grain, to ensure that there will be no deficit during the period, and to ensure that every copper plate is spent in the corresponding place.

The definition of the Supervision Department, Yuan Qi was modeled after the later Independent Commission Against Corruption to establish, the first person to serve as the chief officer of the Supervision Department, Yuan Qi has also made a decision, he decided to let the upright Tian Feng to take the responsibility. With Tian Feng's character, even if someone only embezzles half of the copper plate, Tian Feng will definitely find him out. Let the finance be transparent and rational in the process of operation, Yuan Qi believes that Tian Feng is the most suitable candidate.

Regarding Yuan Qi's appointment, Tian Feng agreed. His own job is to admonish, but as Yuan Qi becomes more and more mature, it is rare to make wrong decisions, which makes Tian Feng once think that he has been reduced to an idle position, of course, this is the situation he wants to see, the lord does not make mistakes or makes fewer mistakes, which is Tian Feng's original intention to serve Yuan Qi. As for the position of the director of supervision, Tian Feng once again felt the importance of Yuan Qi to himself, so he worked tirelessly and held two positions.

In any organization, there is no way that only the chief exists, otherwise he will be a veritable commander of the light pole. In the Supervision Department, Yuan Qi also had to allocate a considerable number of personnel to Tian Feng in order to play the role of supervising the five northern states. For this reason, Yuan Qi and his generals once again discussed the candidates, except for the commanders of the four elite troops who were not transferred, the rest of the generals recommended those loyal men under their command to Yuan Qi. In the end, according to the list recommended by the generals, Yuan Qi transferred 200 people from the Qianlong members in charge of Li Ru, and then drew up a list of the initial directors of the Supervision Department, a total of 1,000 and 9 people. These people will be led by Tian Fenglai in the future, and they will take Yanjing as the center and gradually spread around, first controlling all the money and food in Youzhou within their sight. Then the personnel expansion was carried out, spreading to the entire five northern states.

The establishment of the Supervision Department can be regarded as a solution to a problem in Yuanqi's heart. Once a corrupt atmosphere is formed, it will not be so easy to control it, and the establishment of the Supervision Department is timely at a time when only a very small number of officials are corrupt and pervert the law. In fact, Yuan Qi is not worried that his old subordinates and old brothers will have similar problems, and even for more than 95% of the officials under his command, Yuan Qi does not have this kind of worry, because these people have followed Yuan Qi all the way together, and witnessed the rise of the five northern states, and the sense of achievement of opening up and expanding the territory is incomparable to the officials of other states and counties, and they are willing to take the five northern states as their own home to build, this sense of identity and belonging cannot be described in words.

But Yuan Qi does not dare to guarantee everyone's sense of identity and belonging, and will restrain their selfishness, after all, in the face of a large amount of money, there will still be people who are tempted for various reasons. Moreover, in the future, Yuan Qi will march into the Central Plains, sweep Xiliang, and capture Sichuan Yizhou...... With the expansion of the territory, there will only be more and more officials under their command, for these latecomers, the sense of belonging and identity in their hearts can never be as strong as the current officials, the further south, the more people value money, the long-term affluent life, has made them accustomed to the big fish and meat of every meal, and not as bitter as the north. At that time, it is inevitable that some people will enrich their own pockets and suffer a deficit. Therefore, it is very necessary for the establishment of the Supervision Department, whether it is based on the present or with an eye to the future, and it is an important institution to ensure political integrity.

As soon as the Inspectorate was established, it had an immediate effect. Three officials were found out by Tian Feng and were regarded as negative examples. Of the three, the one who embezzled the most had embezzled 200,000 yuan in three years, while the one with the least embezzled only once, and the amount was only 50 copper coins. But no matter how many there are, since they have been found out, they should be done officially. According to the provisions of the Yanjing Law, the person who embezzled the most money was executed in public, while the person who embezzled the least only needed to make up the fifty copper coins for embezzlement and then be dismissed.

Intimidated by the prestige and grace of the Yuan Qi, as well as the vigorous and resolute actions of the Supervision Department, the four officials took the initiative to surrender themselves to the Supervision Department, confessed the cause and effect of their greed for ink, and took the initiative to hand over the money they had embezzled. Yuan Qi did not punish these four officials, but only dismissed them from their posts after some earnest teaching.

In the process, Yuan Qi and the Supervision Department imposed capital punishment on those who refused to admit their mistakes, and imposed benevolent governance on those who took the initiative to admit their mistakes and handed over the greedy ink, which had a great shock to other officials, and the officials in Yanjing were all taken as a warning, and for a while, a wind of honesty quietly arose in Yanjing.
