Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 142 The First Step of Changing the Great Song Dynasty

Zhao Ji was overjoyed, what he saw was a huge fortune, not to mention anything else, the Shibosi alone could retain more than two million guan.

Although he, as the son of heaven, can be said to be a rich man, but the son of heaven also has his dark side!No one thinks too little of money.What suits his mind the most is that Wang Xiu proposed to set up the Prime Minister's Office of State Affairs, which has the air of a heavenly dynasty.

Seeing the demeanor of Shangguo and hearing the sound of Qian Chuanzi, he can't wait to implement it in all parts of the country immediately.But he is not an idiot, he understands that offending people is a step-by-step process, and Cai Jing has become a gun properly.

Then again, the constant war between the Northwest and the party, the government's finances are tight, and the people are full of complaints. Tang Ge, the always cautious servant of the household department, also began to complain, saying that the treasury of the household department is empty, and the money of the Taifu Temple cannot be used. It's really difficult for him, the second housekeeper of the household department, to be a man.

The Taifu Temple also wrote frequently, saying that the household department was not well managed, and every time the Taifu reserves were embezzled, the Taifu treasury was empty.

The two major central financial yamen dared not say that Zhao Ji was spending money lavishly and wasted money to fish.It has to be said that the imperial court's finances are facing exhaustion, and even the salaries of officials are not paid in a timely manner. There are really many important officials who want to open up money, on the condition that they do not withhold it.

Tang Ge said inappropriately: "Your Majesty, the banks in Wang Xiu's memorial have exploited the interests of the people too much. It seems a bit inappropriate to set up the Prime Minister's Office of State Affairs and separate the power of the Municipal Bureau and the bureaucracy."

Zhao Heng didn't answer, but was aloof, with the air of a Taoist ruler who ruled the world, well, he is the Son of Heaven, His Majesty the Changsheng Emperor.

Cai Jing frowned slightly, glanced at Tang Ge dissatisfiedly, and said indifferently: "Wang Xiu's memorials and articles are all good ways to open up sources of income. As for the bureau and bureaucracy, it should be rectified and rectified."

Everyone's heart trembled, and there are a few people who have ghosts in their hearts, so they can't help kicking, such a big benefit, those bureaucrats and bureaucrats who play tricks can't be filial, unless you don't want to mess around, there is no bird in the world who eats alone.

"Wang Xiu's method is not bad. It is a wonderful pen under the hands of the Qing family." Zhao Ji lightly mentioned Wang Xiu, and by the way, he also annoyed Cai Jing. Even Cai Jing, a high-ranking and powerful veteran of the four dynasties, could not escape his control.

How could Cai Jing not understand Zhao Ji's intentions, favors are not dedicated to others, this is the consistent way of the Zhao family, the credit cannot be obtained by him alone, and said immediately: "Your Majesty is wise, the minister and Wang Xiu are just thinking about the Song Dynasty."

It made sense for Wang Xiu to get a share of the pie, after all, it was Wang Xiu's first song, and besides, he admired Wang Xiu very much, so he took advantage of the situation to make a good fortune.

"Your family cares about the country, and I am very relieved. The establishment of the prime minister's office of national affairs, unified jurisdiction over foreign trade and industrial and commercial bank affairs, what do you think of the family?" Zhao Ji said very gently, but his attitude was very clear, that is, I have already It's decided, gentlemen, give me face, otherwise I won't give you face either.

Which of the old foxes present didn't know it well, especially Cai Jing's confidantes such as Wu Min and Zhao Ye repeatedly agreed.

Once the official position of the prime minister is established, the status of Kuotian Institute in Xicheng will inevitably be lowered. It is not so glorious to just seize the people's land, and it will not last long.

At this appropriate time, Wang Xiu's memorial was approved by Zhao Ji. He established a bank and set up the Prime Minister's National Affairs Office, and completely legalized the private legal treasury and illegal underground lending, so that the royal family and the government could buy shares or government-run funds. The most terrible thing is the huge profits in the market and maritime affairs.

This is a great thing!At least for most people, it is a good and profitable thing. The bank is different from Xicheng Kuotian's naked robbery. Although the money it can collect is definitely not lower than Xicheng Kuotian's, it is more secretive and easier to let people know. People accept it, and it will not arouse too much public indignation by putting on a layer of tenderness.

Wang Fu felt that Cai Jing's intentions were deep, and it could even be said that he was reducing his power and increasing the political influence of the Cai family.

However, Zhao Ji's attitude has been very clear, the important ministers are fighting each other, if he strives hard on this matter, it will be in Cai Jing's arms.If it is seconded, Cai Jing's great contribution this day must be more favored by Zhao Ji, and he, who is not as senior and powerful as Cai Jing, will definitely be at a disadvantage again.

But after all, he is a veteran politician who has been in the officialdom. Thousands of thoughts flashed by in an instant, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty, it is very beneficial to open a bank, and private interest is often higher than that of the government. Daxiangguo Temple is a pure place of Buddhism. Also set up the "Longevity Library" for profit, let these profit-minded people do anything wrong, it is better to bring them all under the control of the government. However, the prime minister's affairs of various countries have too much power and have a lot to do with him, so he must use important ministers concurrently. The minister thinks that a scholar Cai can be outstanding, but take on this role."

Speaking of which, the group of old foxes in the hall knew Wang Fu's intentions clearly, and they all cast meaningful and complicated glances at him.Not to mention that this guy turned his face and sold the Buddha, just because of his despicable thoughts of turning his face and denying others, it makes people despise him.

Wang Fu's plan is good!Since you can't confront Cai Jing head-on, let's go with the flow, and before it's too late, take the opportunity to join in and get a share of the pie, it's always better than offending the emperor with emotion.

In fact, recommending Cai You to lead the office is really a wonderful pen of Wang Fu. Although Cai Jing and Cai You are father and son, Cai You's power has risen in recent years, and there is a faint tendency to fight against Cai Jing. The degree of separation between father and son!
The most important reason for Wang Fu to throw out such a sweet bait is that Cai You is doing everything possible to find an opportunity to drive Cai Jing out of the court, and Cai Tao is the first to bear the brunt.

Once Cai You is in charge of the affairs of various countries as the prime minister, his strength and trust can rise rapidly. Although he has the disadvantage of dominating the head, he can fight against Cai Jing and lose both sides, which is exactly what Wang Wei is happy to watch.Second, Wang Fu was the first to advocate the kindness of recommendation, Cai You will definitely accept this favor, and he, Wang Fu, will also slowly accept it in the future.

As for the power to divide the city and play tricks, he didn't mention it. Anyway, the Zhao family has made a decision, so let Cai Jing take responsibility for offending people!

Cai You took a leisurely look at Wang Fu, and understood this guy's intentions, let alone Wang Fu's character, but he was very interested in promoting the Prime Minister's affairs in various countries, even though it was only a trial in some areas, he also saw this Among them, the bright future is better than Shenxiao Shangqing Palace at the worst.

　Strong push for the last day, please support me.please!
