I am the king of the dead

Chapter 428 Some Tips for Meetings

Zhu Zhanqian agreed to keep it for the local area, and it was [-]%, but why did he give the real thing from the mainland?

Because it is difficult to realize.

There is not much money on the ground in Guizhou, especially big money, that is, expensive money, which is imperial silver coins.

At the time of King Jing of Zhou, King Jing of Zhou felt that people's money was light and worthless, and the price of goods was soaring. He wanted to abolish light money and make heavy money.

At this time, Shan Mugong remonstrated, saying: "Nowadays, the king abolishes the light but the heavy, and the people lose their resources. How can there be no shortage?"
This is the allusion in "Zhou Yu·下".

Shan Mugong meant that light money cannot be abolished and only heavy money should be used.

There are three grades of money in the Ming Dynasty, the first grade is imperial silver coins made by your majesty, which are precious money, the second grade is heavy money made by Baoyuan Bureau, the third grade is Jingtai Tongbao, the fourth grade is flying money, and the money left over from the former Song Dynasty is light. money.

One imperial silver coin is equal to seven hundred pieces of heavy money such as Yongle Tongbao, and roughly equal to two thousand pieces of light money such as Jingtai Tongbao.

If light money is abolished and only heavy money is used, will the common people live without the money they can use?

Shan Mugong's remonstrance was adopted by King Jing of Zhou, and he used both light and heavy money.

Why did the Ming Dynasty have a lot of silver because of sea trade, and silver was gradually accepted and became the hard currency of the Ming Dynasty. Why did no one remind the emperor to mint silver coins?

When King Jing of Zhou received the envoy of the Jin State, he asked the envoy of the Jin State Xun Zhi why the Jin State did not pay tribute to the Emperor of Zhou?

The envoy of the Jin State, Xun Li, didn't know how to answer. The deputy envoy said: "The ancestors have never received rewards, so the State of Jin does not have to offer treasures to return to the emperor of Zhou."

King Jing of Zhou scolded Ji Tan and said: "The ancestor of the state of Jin is the brother of King Cheng of Zhou. How could he not have been rewarded? You scholar-bureaucrats quote scriptures all day long, but you don't know anything about your own allusions. You simply forget your ancestors!"

Jitan is the department of the Jin State, and the official in charge of the state's classics is roughly equivalent to the function of the Ministry of Rites.

King Jing of Zhou scolded the Jin State Department for forgetting his ancestors because he knew that his power as the emperor of Zhou was no longer there.

Forgetting the ancestors after counting the classics, usually scolding people for forgetting the origin, and not giving advice to the emperor, it is naturally forgetting the origin.

Moreover, the Imperial Examinations of the Ming Dynasty did not test Guanzi, nor did they test Zhouyu.

On the land of Guizhou, there are not many imperial silver coins, and some only have flying coins. These coins are extremely valuable in Guizhou, but they are very common in the interior.

Zhu Zhanqian gave them what they needed in Guizhou from the inland. Even if they were corrupt, they couldn't exchange it for a lot of money.

It's useless to exchange a pile of flying money.

Since he dared to use the sharp handle and sent it to the capital to win the headlines of the Ming emperor's residence newspaper, he naturally had a whole set of ideas about the use of the sharp handle.

Zhu Zhanqian represented the imperial court and His Majesty, and was discussing with them, but they could not say in a high-sounding manner: the real things from the mainland cannot be realized such absurd words.

Dong He stopped Jia Quan who was about to speak. This was a very formal sincere talk. If something was wrong, Zhu Zhanqian could take their words and go to the court to sue them.

With the way of the people, also treat the body of the people.

Other than being inconvenient for corruption, the goods from the inland are beneficial and harmless, because they are urgently needed in Guizhou.

If you really want to eat and get what you want, you have to replace it with Guizhou special products before shipping it out. Among them, you have to go through the dredging department and the wharf.

Corruption is a secret thing, and it is a one-shot deal. The more people involved, the easier it is to be exposed, and it is easy to hand it over to others.

Everyone is an old fritter, so why bother to make yourself unhappy?
Dong He, Jia Quan and others were looking for Zhu Zhanqian's loopholes and forced Zhu Zhanqian to submit. Why didn't Zhu Zhanqian want to seize their handles, use their heads to sacrifice to heaven, and push the administrative order?

Dong He finally said: "Your Highness is really talented, beautiful and intelligent."

Dong He thought he was facing a stupid pig, but he didn't realize that he was facing such a dragon crossing the river.

Zhu Zhanqian said helplessly: "Gu used to be fat, so I won't talk about Xiuwai."

As for Huizhong...everyone in Ming Dynasty knows it, King Xiang, I understand it!
"There is one more thing." Dong He said helplessly: "Beijing officials give silver coins as salaries, don't we Guizhou officials also give silver coins?"

Beijing officials give silver coins, and local officials implement the old system, which can be regarded as a limitation of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Zhanqian said with a smile: "Starting from April this year, the salary has been suspended. Your Majesty does not want to owe the salary, but before the end of the year, all the salary for this year will be distributed in full. We in Guizhou, with outstanding people, naturally have a real salary."

"In the future, the real salary will be paid as usual, at least in Jingtai Dynasty."

Your Majesty does not play with discounting banknotes or discounting things now, but actually gives silver coins as salaries.

"Don't worry about it, I promised to increase my salary by [-]%." Zhu Zhanqian continued.

In order to encourage people to come to Guizhou to serve as officials, Daming increased the local salary in Guizhou by [-]% for a period of five years.

Although there are hundreds of thousands of mountains here, it is not poor mountains and bad waters. On the contrary, there are outstanding people, and [-]% is already very high.

"Relax." Zhu Zhanqian signaled them to be reassured, Daming is the imperial court, not a thief who came to Guizhou to rob money, food, women, and run away after the robbing.

Dong He and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were a lot of silver coins, Daming needed more silver coins. They were far away from the border, so they thought they would not enjoy this kind of preferential reward policy.

"Your Majesty is lenient." Dong He bowed his head and said.

Zhu Zhanqian nodded and said, "Excuse me, is there anything else?"

This is a secret battle where you come and go, but you can't see any swords and swords. This kind of sincere discussion began in the Hongwu period. It was called Zhao Dui at first, and then it gradually appeared in all aspects of the Ming Dynasty.

For example, the court meeting under the court meeting, the ministerial meeting under the court meeting, the ministerial meeting under the ministerial meeting, the communication and discussion between the governor and local officials, the sincere talks between local governments and business leaders, and so on.

Dong He and others had a friendly and long-term communication with Zhu Zhanqian. The two sides fully exchanged opinions, understood each other's demands, and reached an agreement on the good operation of the official factory and the dredging department.

However, Zhu Zhanqian expressed firm opposition to some official factory affairs proposed by Dong He, and took out His Majesty's strong veto.

During the whole process, there was a verbal battle, and Zhu Zhanqian was well-founded, sticking to the bottom line, and responding flexibly. After an hour-long talk, the two sides ended the talk in a good atmosphere.

Zhu Zhanqian leaned back in his chair, looked at the ceiling dully and said, "Luo Changshi, intrigue with them is more tiring than building a shipyard."

"I miss those singers in Prince Xiang's Mansion, and I don't know if they were injured when they made trouble in Nan Ya."

Luo Bingzhong thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, I can only think about it. They will not accompany His Highness here to suffer."

Bustards love banknotes, girls love beauty, in this place of Guizhou, those watery girls in Xiangyang Mansion, who is willing to suffer this?
Zhu Zhanqian said with a smile: "Add money alone."

Luo Bingzhong nodded heavily and said, "Okay! That's great!"

For a time, the whole side hall was filled with joyful atmosphere.

Guo Yan was also helpless, this pair of master and servant was really interesting, and he couldn't stop laughing as soon as he opened his mouth.

Zhu Zhanqian sat up straight and said: "Before the sincere talk, you must first know the purpose of this sincere talk, otherwise you will be led by the nose if you are not prepared."

"Then you know who came and who didn't, who should have come but didn't come, and who shouldn't have come but came. For example, Dong He seemed to accept his fate and prepare to retire, but he came."

Luo Bingzhong said suddenly, "He shouldn't have come."

Zhu Zhanqian looked at the backs of those people leaving, and said in a daze: "But he is still here."

"This is before the meeting. You must be fully prepared, otherwise you will be overwhelmed by the fierce pursuit of these officials."

"They are much easier to deal with than the group of masters in the capital."

"The masters of the capital are fundamentally different from the masters of Guizhou. If you want to be convinced by the masters of the capital, you have to be like your majesty, paying equal attention to civil and martial arts."

"That's the real master, the sharp handle is not easy to use."

"Masters in Guizhou only need a sharp handle to handle it."

Luo Bingzhong suddenly realized: "Your Highness... High opinion."

Zhu Zhanqian took a sip of tea and said, "When you are having a sincere conversation, you must grasp the bottom line. This cannot be changed."

"When they touch the bottom line, they must immediately look hideous. They must not have the slightest bit of patience and directly fight back seriously, otherwise they will push forward. This is the most important point."

Luo Bingzhong agreed in retrospect.

When King Xiang rejected the list, he didn't hesitate at all. When he saw the Chieftain, he immediately refused.

He hurriedly said: "Your Highness is wise."

Zhu Zhanxi continued: "Of course, we must also pay attention to everyone's reaction, such as Fan Li, who has been hesitating."

"You have to find their leader and pay attention to observation, otherwise it will be a waste of effort to talk to a duck."

"For example, their leader is Dong He. It seems that he was not exposed until the key issues were discussed."

"Actually, it's not the case. Before the first question was discussed, Gu could already confirm that Dong He took the lead."

Luo Bingzhong thought about it seriously, bowed his head and said, "Your Highness is really insightful."

Zhu Zhanqian's complexion became strange, and he shivered and said: "The masters in the capital are always closely united, you don't know who is the leader at all, it seems that everyone is the leader, It doesn't seem to be either."

"It's hard to figure it out, Chaotang, they are all human beings."

A Jinshi can directly serve as a Beijing official after passing the Hanlin examination, but then he has to go to a local area to become a promoted official. When can he become a Beijing official?
Returning to the court after the nine-year period expires is the bottom line, but in most cases, after returning to the court, he will once again hang the official seal of the capital and serve as a local.

Yu Qian spent 19 years in the exam, Wang Wen spent 18 years in it, and Wang Ao only entered Beijing after 25 years because of a little friction with Yang Shiqi.

As far as the masters in the capital are concerned, is there anyone who is easy to deal with?

Zhu Zhanqian has been intriguing with them for several months, and they have lost thirty catties, and they are even more tiring.

The weight he lost was all weighed down for Daming.

This Dong He, a Jinshi in the second year of Yongle, has been an official and is still hanging around in the local area. How can it be so easy to get in as a Beijing official?

"The place is good, but the place is rather stupid." Zhu Zhanqian said sincerely.

"After the meeting, make a good summary after the meeting. You can get in touch with Fan Li later. I feel that he should not be of the same mind with these local officials. There is no harm in contacting."

Luo Bingzhong kept blinking and said, "Didn't he hand in the list?"

Zhu Zhanqian looked at Luo Bingzhong for a long time and said: "On weekdays, you are very clever. You are good at dredging, building, communicating, and adjusting relationships. Why don't you have talent for such intrigue? "

"Because he handed it in, Gu let you get in touch."

Luo Bingzhong asked suspiciously: "Ah? Why?"

Zhu Zhanqian smacked his lips and explained: "He wrote that because he knew he would be rejected, so you understand."

Luo Bingzhong thought about it seriously for a long time before he said convincingly: "Your Highness knows people well, and his eyes are like torches!"

Fan Li is not stupid, why submit a list that will inevitably be rejected?

It is a national policy to reform the land and return it to the natives, and it cannot be violated at all. He actually wrote the name of the chieftain official.

If you really want to pass, why not write about the relatives of the Chieftain Shiguan?Or simply write the name of the broker-comprador on behalf of the holder?

Just for this list, it will not be passed.

That's why Zhu Zhanyan asked Luo Bingzhong to contact Fan Li, to see if Fan Li was really stupid, or just testing.

Zhu Zhanqian looked at Luo Bingzhong's appearance, and said helplessly: "Luo Changshi, learn from Gu for a few more years. Although Gu is not as brave and diligent as you, you have seen a lot of Gu."

He watched with his own eyes the emperor's uncle, the king of Han, Zhu Gaoxu. During the four years in Xuande, his whole family was roasted to death. If he didn't grow a delicate heart, he wouldn't be alive now.

Luo Bingzhong said with a smile: "The minister will check for omissions and fill vacancies here for a few more years, Your Highness."

"Okay, let's go." Zhu Zhanqian waved his hand, signaling Luo Bingzhong to do something.

Guo Yan was about to get up and leave, but Zhu Zhanqian stopped Guo Yan.

"Gu also knows about you, His Majesty told Gu." The reason why Zhu Zhanqian kept Guo Yan by his side was to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.

The court is sorry for Guo Yan.

Where was Guizhou before?It is a barren land, almost equivalent to a place of exile.

In the inconspicuous civil unrest in the tenth year of Zhengtong, all the ships built by Guo Yanti in the eight prefectures were destroyed.

Guo Yan himself was thrown into Sizhou Prefecture, Guizhou, and became the magistrate.

Guo Yan was taken aback for a moment, bowed his head with a sad expression and said, "Thank you...Your Majesty is concerned."

There are so many Juren and Scholars in the world, and how many can His Majesty remember?

Guo Yan was a little resentful at first, but it disappeared immediately.

Zhu Zhanqian continued: "Wang Ji is dead."

In the tenth year of orthodoxy, Yang Shiqi was already dead, and the one who made the fake hand artifact was Wang Zhen, who waited for Jiang Gui in Dingxi, and after returning from the southern expedition to Luchuan, he said a very strange thing to his son Jiang Wan.

Wang Ji uses Wang Zhen, not Wang Zhen uses Wang Ji.

Guo Yan’s misfortune began when he served the emperor to establish a navy going south to the West. He pursed his lips, and he naturally knew what he meant. He pursed his lips and said: "I...knew it early in the morning, and happily drank half a pot of wine. The minister is not good at drinking."

Zhu Zhanqian thought for a long time and said, "Do you have any request?"

Guo Yan hurriedly bowed his head and said, "I don't dare, it's fine now."

Zhu Zhanqian's meaning was very clear, that is, the court was full of smog, which caused Guo Yan to be treated so poorly for so many years. Guo Yan could make some unreasonable demands, such as becoming an official in Beijing, returning to his hometown with honor, and asking for some rewards.

He thought for a while and said, "You have to know that His Majesty has a lot of things to do every day, and he will think of you next time if he doesn't see you. If you don't mention it this time, there will be no next time. It's like a gust of wind, blowing by."

Guo Yan said with a smile: "I have already thought about it a long time ago. I have been favored by the emperor for many years, so I dare not have any unreasonable thoughts."

Guo Yan was just a Jinshi. If he didn't mention it at this time, His Majesty would really forget him, but Zhu Zhanqian made it clear, and Guo Yan still didn't mention anything.

Zhu Zhanqian nodded and said: "Do things well, the court will not treat any meritorious officials badly."

Zhu Zhanqian looked at Guo Yan's back and remained silent.

Guo Yan should not be here, this strange world.
