Chapter 446 The Hot Potato ([-])
The Ministry of Industry has not changed much in the past year, only that Shen He was transferred back to the Ministry of Industry to take up the position of the right servant. In addition, Sun Dongfang, the former head of the Ministry of Shuiqing, released Hubei Chengtai, and Li Shuangchun took over again. After taking charge of the department, Dai Duo, the doctor of the manufacturing library, has not been promoted in his position, but has been added the title of minister of the Ministry of Industry, ranking above all doctors. .All the people are old workers from the Ministry of Industry, and they are very familiar with Hongqing's work habits. No one dares to neglect this urgent order. All the personnel have arrived at the lobby, waiting for the arrival of Hong Qing and Hong Li, the two assistants, Longsun.

"Qing Baylor is here!"

Although the participants were of different camps, they were colleagues for many years after all, and they were all on good terms. Although they didn't know the purpose of Hongqing's urgent gathering, it didn't prevent everyone from chatting and laughing easily. Suddenly, in the midst of harmony, Hong Qing, who was dressed in a neat court uniform, walked out slowly when he suddenly heard a loud shout from the back hall.

"The officials and others have met Qing Baylor, and have seen Hongli's son."

Seeing the Hongqing brothers coming hand in hand, all the officials did not dare to be careless, they hurriedly suppressed the smiles on their faces, and paid homage in unison.

"All gentlemen, please take your seats."

Hong Qing walked slowly to the back of the copywriting in the middle, lifted the hem of her robe, and sat down, looked around solemnly at the officials of all sizes who were kneeling all over the floor, then raised her hand in a vacuous voice, her voice was slightly cold cried out.

"Thank you, Belle Long."

Hearing Hong Qing's voice was slightly cold, all the officials couldn't help but murmured in their hearts, but at this moment, no one dared to talk nonsense, so they could only suppress the curiosity in their hearts. , thanked in unison, and then sat back to their original positions.

"I invite you to come here today because I have something to discuss with you. After all, my current money law is full of flaws, and it has come to a time when I have to make changes. Today, Minister Shen He I have already entered this chapter and decided to do this. After discussing with Lidi, Ben Baylor also felt that it is urgent to make it easier. Lidi should take charge of the overall situation of Yu Heng's Qing Dynasty and cooperate with Shen Langzhong to make every effort to establish a new money law to restore the current unfavorable situation. Next, Shen Shilang will first explain the necessity of making money easier."

After everyone was seated, Hong Qing didn't talk nonsense, and stated the theme of the discussion in a straightforward manner.

"Om..."

What Hong Qing said was not too long, but the content was very rich, and there was something shocking about it. All the officials immediately became confused. Although the company is considered a major event, it is not worth mentioning compared to the reform of the money law. All the officials are old officials, and many of them have been local officials. There are flaws in the law, and we know that such flaws are extremely harmful to the country, but it involves too much, but no one dares to mention it, probably because if we really want to change the law of money, it will be with the entire bureaucracy. Hierarchy is against each other, and the pressure and hardships are beyond the reach of human beings.

"Everyone has invited you. I have used copper, six lead and four as a rule in the money law, so that money is expensive and silver is cheap. According to the law, one tael of silver is worth one thousand Wen, but in fact, one tael of silver is only worth seven hundred Wen in the market. Today The taxes of counties and governments are always based on silver, but why do the ordinary people get a lot of silver? They generally pay taxes with money. , changing hands more than [-] times the profit, the feeling is shocking, and the method of changing the money is urgent, there are two strategies: one, take four coppers and six lead, the surface of the cast money is slightly dark, but it is still recognizable, or It can balance the exchange ratio of silver and money; secondly, there should be an organization that is solely responsible for cracking down on illegal businessmen who melt money and cast utensils, so that there will be no risk of loss of coins that are commonly used in the market, as I heard above."

Shen He didn't pay attention to the chaos of the crowd, reached out his hand and took out the copybook from the wide sleeve, then cleared his throat slightly, and the master announced.

Dead silence, a whole dead silence, as soon as Shen He's voice fell, all the officials who had been murmuring and discussing in private immediately fell silent, and there was a dead silence in the hall instantly, nothing else, Qian Fa reform is A hot potato will inevitably get burned if you put it in anyone's arms. At this critical juncture, it is better to have more than less.

Although Shen He said that there are only two ways to change, it seems very simple, as long as the court meeting is passed, the old man can immediately put in place in one step with an order, but in reality it is far from that simple, not to mention that once the matter is mentioned, How difficult it is to go to the parliament, just to say that it is not so easy to carry out the implementation. You must know that this has cut off the wealth of countless officials. It is the same crime as digging people's ancestors. Strange thing, even with the tough attitude of the old man to suppress it, those local officials dare not oppose it on the surface, but in private, how can they not change their methods and play tricks, and it is really going to cause the price to skyrocket, so the person who proposed this move Nine out of ten people will be punished. Moreover, the so-called dictatorship obviously involves the four major yamen of workers, households, criminals, and officials. Who will be in charge is itself a problem, even if the old man has a decision, But it is absolutely impossible to avoid the possibility of each other's buck-passing. If this is the case, it is hard to say how efficient this type of organization will be. If you go to this institution, you will definitely end up in bad luck.

"Do you have any objections to this, gentlemen? If not, then this matter is settled."

Hong Qing was too clear about the psychology of the officials, and she didn't bother to tell the truth. Seeing that all the officials were silent, and Hong Qing didn't explain, she was about to make a decision rather domineeringly.

"Qing Baylor, I think you need to be more cautious about this matter."

Others have nothing to do with themselves, so they can hold it high, but Qi Dazuo obviously does not have such a blessing, not for anything else, just because as the doctor in charge of Yu Hengqing's official department, he is absolutely impossible to get rid of this matter. Seeing that Hong Qing was about to make a decision, her eyes turned red on the spot, and she interrupted her without hesitation.

"Careful? How to be cautious, huh?"

Hong Qing had long expected that Qi Dazuo would jump out and sing the opposite tune, so she didn't take it seriously in her heart, but her face darkened in an instant, and she squeezed out a sentence from her teeth in a gloomy manner.

"Ah, this, this..., hehe, Qingbeiler, you know that although our Ministry of Industry has the right to mint money, the amount of money minted is only [-]% of that of the Ministry of Households. It should be raised by the household department. If we mention this, it seems inevitable that we will be overstepping. If there is a lawsuit at the household department, the consequences will not be fun. Qingbeiler, you see Should we talk to the head of the household department about this matter first, and it won’t be too late to go to the book after we reach a consensus.”

This matter is really too serious. Although he was frightened by Hong Qing's gloomy tone, Qi Dazuo refused to give in just like that. After the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, he insisted on raising Dissenting opinion.

"That's right, Qing Bei Le, the lower officials also think that this matter must be handled with caution, and suddenly bringing up this chapter, on the one hand, it may annoy all the officials in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and on the other hand, it is also easy to be punished by the local bastards." Contradictions, I am afraid that there is something wrong with the Ministry of Industry, according to the officials, it is better to delay the discussion."

Chen Busi had always advanced and retreated with Qi Dazuo, and now that Qi Dazuo took the lead, he himself became energetic, so he echoed a sentence with a smile on his face.

"Absurd, you eat the king's salary, but you don't want to serve the court. If you get merit, you will grab it, and if you get trouble, you will hide. What's the use of such a waste like you? If you don't want to be an official, Ben Baylor will fulfill you Wait, without Butcher Zhang, is it really possible to eat hairy pigs? If you don’t want to do it, then Baylor will find someone who wants to do it, and you can submit your resignation.”

Hong Qing has made up her mind, how could she be mixed up by Qi and Chen, her face darkened, she reprimanded them mercilessly, and finally forced them to resign and leave with scathing words .

Resign?Qi and Chen are naturally unwilling to do such things. Although the two of them were able to climb to the current position, although they mainly relied on the recommendation of their respective masters, they themselves spent a lot of money. How could they be willing? Letting people know the position under the buttocks for no reason. After hearing Hong Qing's words to such an extent, the two immediately fell silent after they looked at each other.

"Do you have any comments, gentlemen, huh?"

Seeing that Qi and Chen were silent, Hong Qing would not be too selfish, she didn't even look at them any more, and asked another question with a straight face.

Among the many officials here, except for Qi and Chen who are staunch opponents, the rest are either Hong Qing's direct descendants or allies. Although they have other ideas in their hearts, they dare not discuss matters in this court. There was a conflict with Hong Qing under the circumstances, so the whole hall fell silent.

"Well, since all the princes have no objection, then the matter is settled like this. Tomorrow, Brother Lao Li and Shen Shilang will jointly sign this chapter, and let's see how the court decides. The meeting will be adjourned!"

Since everyone remained silent, Hong Qing logically acquiesced in the silence on the spot, waved her hand, and made a bold decision. In the end, without giving them any more chances to speak, she got up and went to the back office. Church is gone.

"Ugh……"

"This……"

"call……"

……

After Hongqing left like this, the discussion naturally couldn't go on. All the officials laughed wryly, and they either showed great enthusiasm, or shook their heads and sighed, nothing else. Being the target of public criticism, no one wants to stay out of it, so few people can be happy...
