I am the king of the dead

Chapter 950
You can't blame Yu Qian for persuading Renshu not to work hard, Yu Qian has done his best, and you can't blame His Majesty for being partial, it is entirely the civil servants who shattered His Majesty's beautiful vision for scholars bit by bit.

On this day, Shijingchang was uneasy, and the Beijing officials were even more uneasy. They were held on their necks with knives, and they stayed like this for a day. If Shijingchang was really ordered by someone, His Majesty will make a big fuss , not even an intercessor.

Fortunately, the performance of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Industry in his rich years has saved a lot of face for the ministers of the Ming Dynasty!

At least when the Gunpowder Department was in danger of explosion, the craftsmen were working hard to put out the fire. Chen Youde, the general manager of Shijing Factory, and Liu Changshun, the director of the Gunpowder Department, died trying to escape the danger, while Daming Tiqi was maintaining order. The husband entered the Gunpowder Division for the second time and ruled out all risks.

The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, seeing what Yu Qian, a civil servant, can say, Yu Shaobao and I are both civil servants of the Ming Dynasty!
The next day, Zhu Qiyu specifically ordered to cancel the daily court meeting, and today the emperor was going to visit the families of the heroes.

Zhu Qiyu told Hu Wei that no one should make a fuss about heroes, not only giving instructions, but also expressing his position with practical actions, but all the officials and powerful officials in the capital who have eyes clearly understand what His Majesty means, Dougui Dou, don't engage in stigmatization tricks.

In fact, Zhu Qiyu expected the scene of condolences. He went to Daxing Shihaizi more than once to condolences to the family members who did not accept them at night. Apart from sadness, these family members were more grateful for the grace of God. Zhu Qiyu actually did not know whether these family members were really I am thanking the Holy Grace, but Daming's pensions for heroes and martyrs are particularly preferential, and the pensions alone exceed a hundred silver.

Zhu Qiyu is just an ordinary person. At least, these family members said in private that this hundred silver was considered a relatively good money for hard work during the Jingtai period.

The big driver Yuren drove back to the lecture hall slowly. After Zhu Qiyu finished his lunch, he squinted for a while, then picked up the memorandum, took the question book, and came to the Yantie Conference Hall of Juxian Pavilion. There will be a salt and iron meeting in the afternoon.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty bows to you." All the officials saluted.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Chen Youde's position without saying a word, and said after a long time: "Chen Youde invented the hydraulic screw press, which greatly accelerated the embossing of the imperial silver coins of the Ming Dynasty, and made the imperial silver coins more exquisite, so He won the first miraculous achievement card, and I still remember how he explained the mystery to me while holding a palm-sized model in the Shijingchang military battle."

"High spirits."

"In the past few years since he was transferred from the Military Bureau to the Shijing Factory as the general manager, Chen Youde has worked hard, and he has always been bullied by the Shuntian government office. He either borrowed money or took points, holding so much coal and iron, and holding so much power. , can still be bullied like this, is he weak? I don't think, in fact, he is not weak at all. "

"In all these years, I have never heard of Chen Youde being reported by the craftsmen of Shijing Factory."

"Yesterday, in order to avoid danger, 28 firemen including Chen Youde and Liu Changshun, the commissioner of the Gunpowder Department, went into the Gunpowder Bureau, and then they couldn't get out again."

"He knew the danger, but he went in anyway. He didn't regard himself as an official from the beginning to the end, but as a craftsman. The two brothers Shen Bigui and Shen Bifu were the same at the beginning. This kind of daring to be the first and not forgetting the original intention People are well-deserved heroes and well-deserved backbones."

"The Ministry of Industry proposed that Chen Qingyi, the general office of the Charcoal Division, be the general office of the Shijing Factory. When he was disposed of by the Gunpowder Division, he entered the Gunpowder Division for the second batch to eliminate risks."

"If there is any objection, write a memorial and send it to Wenyuan Pavilion before the end of the month."

Zhu Qiyu recalled Chen Youde's life. He was a simple, down-to-earth and capable craftsman. He was like this, and he was still able to go all out in a dangerous situation.

It is this kind of people who support Shijing Factory and Zhu Qiyu's new government factory policy.

The emperor also announced a personnel appointment, if there is any objection, you can ask questions.

The ministers look at you, I look at you, no one intends to refute the emperor's decision in the end, the general office of Shijingchang controls the energy supply of the capital, the military equipment of the capital, including the supply of gunpowder. The importance of the military-industrial complex based on the combined transportation of steel is self-evident, but no one dares to touch this bad luck at this time.

Mainly Chen Qingyi, really suitable, he himself is the office of the Charcoal Division, just one step away from the general office, this time the Shijing factory caught fire, Chen Qingyi performed very well, the most important thing is that Chen Qingyi, like Chen Youde, is a A typical craftsman, talk less and do more, will not affect the balance of all parties.

Zhu Qiyu opened the memo and said: "This morning, I didn't have a court meeting. There is one thing that I need to talk about."

"A few days ago, Empress Dowager Sun, who worshiped the Buddha, suddenly sent the eunuch of the Palace of Compassion and Ning to complain to me, saying that she saw some strange things in the palace."

"When the imperial court is resting, there are always cars driving into the palace. They enter through the Xihua Gate, pass through the Imperial Wine Room, and arrive at the Palace of Compassion and Ning. The car wobbles, stops at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and then enters the Yeting Court."

"The Empress Dowager Sun is a little strange, because the nobles in the palace are all driven by sedan chairs. This car is unheard of, because who doesn't know that driving in the palace is equivalent to conspiracy? Court, stay at Qianqing Palace, then go to Kunning Palace, and finally pass through Qin'an Palace, exit Xuanwu Gate, and leave the palace through Xi'an Gate."

"The Empress Dowager Sun has been in the palace for so many years, and has never seen a car driver. She specially asked the eunuch to come here to ask about the situation, so as to avoid misunderstanding."

"Is Queen Mother Sun asking what's going on? That's hitting me in the face!"

After saying this, the salt and iron meeting hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard. This kind of thing!Some time ago, Mrs. Liu was knocking on the Dengwen drum, and His Majesty was looking at the officials who were not pleasing to the eyes. If you do this kind of thing at this time, you are courting death!
No wonder His Majesty reacted so violently yesterday, it turned out there was a reason for it!
Zhu Qiyu continued: "I asked Xing'an to investigate. I thought someone was going to enter the palace, take my bird seat, and become the emperor myself! After thinking about choosing me, this is wrong. I am in Tai'an Palace, and he entered the palace. Go, you can't take the bird seat, can you?"

"Xing'an inquired, this car is full of literati, and they are not allowed to get out of the car along the road. They just want to see what the palace looks like, so Xing'an sent someone to ask, how is this palace? This literati Say, but that's all."

"I'm just wondering, why did this car drive around in the Daming Palace in such a grand manner, whose credit card did they take?"

"This case is not difficult to investigate. It is the credit card of Sanqi Sheren, and it is the name of the Ministry of Industry to repair the palace. The eunuch of the imperial wine room is leading the way, and the Xunwei is guarding the city gate."

"Xunwei is the son of the hero. The imperial wine room is the eunuch's internal department. The name and the origin come from the Ministry of Industry. The people who do this business are actually the secretary of each ministry. Everyone has a share. Don't blame anyone. Just for the sake of The sightseeing fee of three hundred silver for one person."

"Thanks to the fact that I live in Tai'an Palace, not the Imperial Palace, otherwise, in the middle of the night, someone took my head and I don't know who did it."

Wang Zhi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, never expected that such a thing would happen to him when he was about to retire. When he stood up, he would kneel down and plead guilty: "I'm guilty..."

"Stop, stop." Zhu Qiyu signaled Wang Cheng not to kneel, just sit down, and continued: "I know, but I don't live in the palace, and the power of the palace in the various ministries has plummeted, so there is a gap, the palace, the emperor Wherever you live, there is the imperial palace, apart from the city gate, the Nanjing Imperial Palace is almost haunted."

The prime meridian in the Jingtai period was based on the central axis of Tai'an Palace as zero degrees, and all maps with latitude and longitude are marked in this way.

The dragon bed of Zhu Qiyu's Tai'an Palace is on the zero-degree line. He can flip from the eastern hemisphere to the western hemisphere by turning over. The emperor doesn't live in the palace, and the palace is in the hearts of all ministries.

When Zhu Qiyu personally fought against the rebellion, he stayed in the palace for a few nights. Chen Wanniang was waiting for her bedtime attendant. Seeing Zhu Qiyu's figure, she thought it was haunted.

Seeking truth from facts, not only Zhu Qiyu's request to the courtiers, but also his request to himself. It is no wonder that the courtiers did not take the imperial palace seriously. The emperor even approved the repair of the glazed tiles of Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace.

Zhu Qiyu knocked on the table and said: "I can see the big from the small, but if there is a crack, just drill in, and you can always get some money. Our Daming is powerful and the beasts in the right clothes, especially Good at seeing stitches."

"I've made this matter clear today. These cavaliers and guards will be exiled to the old port to guard the border. These officials will go to Hara and Lin to find Yang Hanying. They will herd sheep for three years before returning."

How to deal with the eunuchs in the royal wine room?Xing'an sank them all.

Eunuchs are internal officials, and internal officials are the emperor's domestic slaves. Domestic slaves do not suffer from illness. If something happens, there is only one end, and that is death.

If Xing'an didn't sink them into the well, the eunuchs in Tai'an Palace would follow suit.

"Your Majesty is lenient." Hearing his Majesty's opinion, Yu Qian bowed his head and said, this is the scope of punishment. If His Majesty follows the theory of treason, it is not impossible, but His Majesty obviously did not raise the butcher's knife.

He Lin Ku, He Lin Lei, but all the ministers went to He Lin to herd sheep for three years, and they can still return to Daming. When Sanqi Sheren and Xun Wei arrived in Jiugang, they are the masters, masters, and Li Chengwu, the consolation envoy of Jiugang Dare to be arrogant to these honorable queens?
"Okay, let's start the salt and iron meeting." Zhu Qiyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, and began to answer the questions from the courtiers about industry and vain industry. Homework, answer it with ease.

"Your Majesty, can the interest rate of the Baoyuan Bureau be lowered, and this vain money is just given to them for nothing?" Shen Yi, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, raised an issue about the deposit interest of the Baoyuan Bureau.

The Baoyuan Bureau, Baochao Bureau, and Bingzhan Bureau were merged into Daming Yinzhuang, which was jointly managed by the Ministry of Accounting and the Ministry of Finance. Under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry, this kind of cross-management is a normal state, artificially sacrificing efficiency to create rigidity, in order to ensure supervision.

The deposit interest of Baoyuan Bureau was set at 3% per annum in order to attract savings. This interest seems not high, only [-]%. However, under the premise of issuing a large number of imperial silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao, there is still no inflation. On the contrary, due to the increase in productivity and the inherent lag of the distribution system, a certain degree of deflation has appeared.

Shen Yi looked at the title book in his hand and said: "When His Majesty talked about profits, he said that the deposit interest does not only depend on the deposit interest, the actual interest rate is about the same as the deposit interest minus the inflation rate, which is the actual interest rate , so the actual interest rate of Daming Yinzhuang should be between [-]% and [-]% per annum."

"If this interest rate is converted into the bad debt rate of private lending, at some point, it will exceed the income of the yellow rice money."

Putting money in yellow rice is not a steady income. Although the interest rate is as high as one cent per year, the interest will be discounted after bad debts. After calculations by Ji Shenghai, it is found that depositing money in Daming Yinzhuang is cheaper than putting money in yellow rice. Money returns are even higher.

The deposit interest of Daming Yinzhuang is all white money, and it is so sinful that it is given to the powerful and powerful!

Lin Xiu, the eunuch of the internal funds, also quite recognized it and said: "Baoyuan Bureau's absorption of deposits was originally intended to attract private deposits of silver and ensure the imprinting of Ming imperial silver coins when the amount of Japanese silver entering the Ming Dynasty was insufficient. Under Yuan Gongfang’s coercion and lure, the Warring States Warring States daimyo guardians had a stable and sufficient supply of silver.”

Zhu Qiyu heard the opinions of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, nodded and said: "It can be lowered a bit, the annual interest rate is [-]%, and the annual interest rate is fixed every year."

"Thank you to the daimyos of the Wa country for doing all they can to strip down and provide silver to ensure the healthy operation of Daming's financial affairs. Thanks to the daimyos of the Wa country for trying their best to strip down and provide Japanese women to make millions of bachelors in Daming Got a wife."

"If there is a silver deficit after the interest rate cut, then Japan will suffer even more."

Yu Qian immediately bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

The officials who wanted to say something had no choice but to bow their heads and say, "Your Majesty is wise."

There are all scholars of Confucianism in the court, and there are bound to be some courtiers who hold the idea of ​​advocating Confucianism and advocating the ancients, and admonish the people from Rouyuan. As for the people from Rouyuan, or for Baiyin?Or oppose for the sake of opposing?This is unknown.

But the political correctness of the Ming court, speaking for the country of Japan, is tantamount to communicating with the Japanese, and cursing people in the Ming Dynasty to understand the Japanese is a vicious curse that will never die.

Zhu Qiyu knocked on the table and said: "Cutting interest rates will increase the circulation of money, stimulate the economy, and ensure the development of industries, but we must be vigilant against the flow of money to places that the court and the people do not want to flow to."

"Which places?" Yu Qian asked along the way.

　It's a bit late to come back today, ask for a monthly ticket, woo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
