Chapter 450 Five-Year Plan
Zhu Qiyu really wanted to go see the people, but he didn't dare to disturb them. Now, he was still worried that the governance of the Ming Dynasty was not as good as the ministers said. If he went to see it, the people would scold him!

Of course, Zhu Qiyu did not tell anyone about this reason!

Then Zhu Qiyu and Lin Cunde continued to chat, including Lin Cunde handing two other memorials he had written to Zhu Qiyu!

Zhu Qiyu is very satisfied with Luanzhou’s one-year plan and five-year plan!

Especially when it comes to the five-year plan of the navy, Zhu Qiyu is even more satisfied. Zhu Qiyu knows that these warships will be used to expand territory in the future, so more need to be built. In this case, the Ming Dynasty's navy can also control more ships. land!

"The six departments and the two capitals and thirteen provinces all need to write five-year plans and one-year plans. When the time comes, you will participate in the review and revision. In addition, this year I will summon eight vassal kings back to Beijing to also participate in the review. Those vassal kings are still very important this year. If they cooperate, I also need to give them some sweet dates, otherwise, they should have objections!" Zhu Qiyu closed the memorial and said with a smile to Lin Cunde!

"Yes, we can also let them know what Ming Dynasty needs to do in the next few years? Is there anything that they need to do? In addition, the income of several workshops also needs to be calculated by them. Every year, a group of vassal kings can be summoned to return Jing, audit those accounts so that other vassal kings can rest assured!" Lin Cunde nodded to Zhu Qiyu and said!
"Well, the queen means the same thing. Since it is said that part of the income from those workshops is for the lord, it needs to be calculated. This is what needs to be done. When the time comes, it will be distributed to them! It will also make them feel at ease. Now There are basically no refugees in Ming Dynasty, and there are also land crops. This year we have a bumper harvest. The key is that the several rivers built last year and the several river embankments built this year have no problems, so that the people along the banks can The people are saved from floods!" Zhu Qiyu said with great satisfaction!
There were still floods this year, but they were only in a very small area. The Chaotang provided disaster relief very quickly. Although people died, they were the fewest in recent years. Moreover, the Chaotang also quickly arranged for reproduction to reduce the number of people as much as possible. loss!

For this reason, several officials who worked hard in disaster relief were also credited by the court, and they will be promoted when there is an opportunity!

This also makes the officials below pay attention to disaster relief!

The cabinet has also been changed a lot by Zhu Qiyu. They only have the power to discuss and make suggestions, and have no other powers. They have completely become the emperor's secretarial department!

Of course, Chen Xun, Gao Gu, and Jiang Yuan still have influence over other departments, so they still have some invisible power, but their actual power is no longer very big!

They were all ignored by Zhu Qiyu!
If Zhu Qiyu wants to take charge, they will have no choice!
Moreover, the six ministers also hope to report directly to Zhu Qiyu, so that the problem can be solved faster than reporting to the cabinet!
Moreover, in terms of rank, the ministers of the six ministries are inherently higher in rank than the cabinet ministers, and they have to manage more things!

Just because Chen Xun is now of high rank and serves as the chief minister of the cabinet, everyone will respect Chen Xun instead of respecting the cabinet!
"I want to come back, but if we can all return to the capital, in fact, just now, the five-year plan will be reviewed this year. At that time, the vassal kings will be brought back and let them participate in the review. After the review, they will have the power to write secrets. For the local The implementation of the five-year plan can be fed back in real time, which will be more helpful for His Majesty to understand local affairs!" Lin Cunde thought for a while and said!
After hearing this, Zhu Qiyu hesitated for a moment and asked: "All come back? They all came back last year, and they are asked to come back this year. Do they dare to come back? I guess they are worried that I want to deal with them again, which is not good. What if I take risks? ?”

Lin Cunde laughed after hearing this and said: "Your Majesty can write them a letter to let them know the intention of returning to Beijing, with a more sincere tone. I believe they will be relieved and happy after receiving your Majesty's letter. In fact, they also want to Participate in politics, so they will come back very actively this time!”

"Well, that makes sense. I have written to them. If they still don't believe it, there is nothing we can do. Forget it, let's write an imperial edict so that the world can know that I sincerely invite them to come back!" After hearing this, Zhu Qiyu , thought for a while, nodded, and said with a smile!
"Yes, from now on, they will come back every five years. After five years, they need to come back early. One is to review the implementation of the five-year plan, and the other is the layout of the next five-year plan. For them, they Yes! At the same time, you can also mention that in the next five years, the Ming Dynasty needs to do two things. One is to defeat the Japanese country, and the other is to deal with the Oara!
Don't give Wala too much time. If we can't fight in this five years, we will definitely fight in the next five years. There can't be any enemies around the Ming Dynasty. As long as they exist, they need to be killed!
In addition, those who participated in the review include officials from the six ministries and above, as well as local officials' left and right chief envoys. Some outstanding ones may be promoted to the capital as ministers or left and right chief envoys in the next five years. Councilors, as well as the prefect and others!
Among the other six departments, officials who may be promoted to the rank of minister in the next five years also need to participate!
When reviewing the five-year plan, we need to consider inheritance issues and future talent training plans!

It can be said that as long as officials are qualified to participate in the review plan, they are all officials that the court needs to reuse in the next five years! Those who participate in the review every year, except for the vassal king, are fixed, and other personnel are not fixed, and they all need to be named by Your Majesty yourself!

This is a signal to the people and officials all over the world. These officials need to be promoted in the next five years!

Moreover, during the review, unless they are deposed officials or deceased officials, the officials reviewed will still be these people. Of course, there are also some officials who need to be promoted in the next five years!

Since then, the promotion of important officials in the court has been firmly controlled by His Majesty!
In addition, the same is true for the army. His Majesty decides who can participate and who is not qualified to participate. It does not mean that he can participate because he is a marquis, nor that he cannot participate because he is Qianhu!
On the contrary, participating in the review has nothing to do with status, but with the implementation of the plan for the next five years!
For example, if the admiral of the Shenji Battalion is old and the new admiral is now a commander, then the admiral does not need to participate, but the commander must participate, because in the next five years, this commander will serve as the admiral. This commander is needed to execute the court's plan! Lin Cunde suggested to Zhu Qiyu!
Zhu Qiyu stood up at this moment and began to walk around the imperial study room. Lin Cunde would definitely give a lot of suggestions every time he came back. This is why Zhu Qiyu dismissed everyone today. They were the only ones left in the imperial study room. Besides, there was no big event today. Who could Not seen either!

At this moment, outside the imperial study, Chen Xun, Wang Zhi, Gao Gu, Yu Qian, Yu Shiyue and others were waiting. The purpose of their coming here was for some court matters!

They originally thought that an hour would be enough for Zhu Qiyu to see Lin Cunde, but now an hour has passed, and the imperial study room door has not been opened yet!
Cheng Jing and Wang Cheng have been waiting outside and dare not open the door and go in!
Zhu Qiyu had already given the order. No one was allowed to enter without Zhu Qiyu's order!

"Well, that makes sense. From now on, I am the official who controls the entire core of the Ming Dynasty, and will be the official in the future!" Zhu Qiyu nodded and said!

After hearing this, Lin Cunde continued: "In addition, the prince must be present. Although the prince is young now, a rule needs to be established. The prince must attend, and it is also a legacy!"

"Well, there's no problem with that. Although the prince is young, I also hope to train him well. He won't be like me, who didn't know anything when he ascended the throne. This won't work!" Zhu Qiyu nodded in agreement!
"In this meeting, we can also discuss the arrangements for officials, that is, the promotion of important officials. For example, now that Wang Zhi, the Minister of Civil Affairs, is old and can step down at any time, then we can decide at the meeting who the official who will succeed Wang Zhi is. Who, who will be the main assistant to Wang Zhi? After Wang Zhi takes office, if there are no major changes, this official will need to be replaced. In this way, the inheritance can be guaranteed, and His Majesty will have greater initiative!
Moreover, once the five-year plan is approved, His Majesty will not be so busy in the future. Many things can be handled by the six ministries. Your Majesty is just coordinating everything, and there is no need for them to report everything and execute it according to the plan!

If there is a sudden change, such as a major earthquake, severe drought, flood, or snowstorm, the Ministry of Household Affairs also needs to make a plan. Where the disaster will occur and where to mobilize food, all need to be determined! "Lin Cunde continued to talk about his thoughts!
Zhu Qiyu put his hands behind his back and nodded!

"At the same time, the Ministry of War and the Fifth Military Governor's Office need to formulate plans for wars that may occur in the next five years, which are mainly divided into internal and external wars, including the upgrade of the army. How much money does the Ministry of Revenue need to spend every year to maintain military expenses? The cost is fixed, and those who fight will be charged separately!

This requires the Fifth Army Governor's Office and the Ministry of War to calculate together!
For example, what are the annual expenses of the Fifth Military Camp? These expenses need to be broken down. Which expenses are used for salary, which expenses are used for purchasing weapons and equipment, which expenses are used for training, and which expenses are reserved for the Ministry of War. Wait, and some of the money needs to be spent and handed over to the Ministry of Industry, so that the Ministry of Industry can develop better weapons! '

The Ming Dynasty's army must constantly improve the performance of weapons and equipment, including firearms. There may be no progress in three to five years, but after a few years of technology accumulation, new equipment will be developed. Through the control of the Fifth Army Governor's Office and the Ministry of War, After inspection, you can equip the army! "Lin Cunde continued to talk about the army. This is also the key!

There has never been a plan to specifically develop Ming equipment before, but now Lin Cunde wants to join in!
