Chapter 558: The First Battle of the Three Redundancies (Eleven)
Judicial reform is born out of new laws. Without new laws, judicial reform cannot exist.
It can even be said that Sima Guang may not necessarily give such great support, or even not support it at all.
In this case, we should find a way to get things back on track. There is no room for two tigers in this mountain.
Let the two tigers fight to the death.
Because the tone set by the imperial court will inevitably affect the implementation of the new law.
These officials are not stupid. Wang Anshi's new law is to pursue super centralization, use power to monopolize, and then make money.
This is why officials always give the Public Security Bureau a certain amount of room for survival, because the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate can check and balance this power.
Nowadays, the government is being tormented by the Public Security Bureau, Procuratorate, and the Law. Can you make sense if you don’t try to mess with the new law?
Of course, this is also based on the fact that officials failed miserably on the issue of military spending.
A very complete loss.
What he designed was to use finances to put pressure on the court.
However, they did not expect that the imperial court would put pressure on them to solve the problem.
This is really speechless.
They really don't have the courage to go against the imperial court for the time being. Moreover, instead of charging into battle and fighting with the public prosecutor and the law, it is better to sow discord in the middle.
This is exactly the same as the thoughts of those ministers in the DPRK.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether they want to reduce interest rates or not. They still have to lobby the big landowners.
Procuratorate!
"Does the imperial court support the new law or oppose the new law?"
Chen Qi was like a two-foot-long monk, confused.
Originally, when they heard the news that the imperial court was going to improve loan sharking, they thought it was paving the way for the Young Seedlings Law. But now that they learned the specific content, they thought it was restricting the Young Seedlings Law.
It is very important that the official and the private are the same.
Su Che frowned and stared at the notice. He frowned and said nothing. He was also thinking in his heart, which side did he belong to? Why did it seem like he was playing fifty-fifty every time?
The success is all due to him! Is such legislation really beneficial to the Qingmiao Law? Moreover, he did not mention the Chang Ping Cang Law?
"Prosecutor General?"
"ah?"
Su Che was slightly startled, glanced at Chen Qi, and said casually: "What are you guessing? He is now the president of the imperial court. Of course he only supports the public prosecutor."
As soon as the words came out, he was stunned, yes! Maybe maybe he is his own school?
At this time, there was really a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere inside the imperial court.
After this battle, the Imperial Court has finally established a firm foothold in Hezhong Mansion. No one dares to despise the Imperial Court anymore, mainly the old men.
If the army can be reduced, will it still be difficult to serve as a local official like you?
The most important point is that the imperial court has won over the soldiers. Before Zhang Fei came, he was afraid that the soldiers would use mutiny to deal with him.
This is the most taboo thing for the imperial court and the most taboo thing for the law.
Therefore, when the case of Zhong'e was not being tried, he kept a very low profile and ignored the person. He knew clearly that the salt officials were tampering with them, but he did not say that he would punish them, let alone improve the loan regulations. If it were normal, there would be no doubt that
Just want to break up with the big landowners.
This is their core interest!
"Cai Jing! What's going on outside?"
Zhang Fei leaned casually on his desk, folded his arms and asked Cai Jing.
Cai Jing said with a smile: "The students don't know what they said in private. Anyway, the students didn't hear any objections."
Ye Zuqia said proudly: "At this moment, who dares to disobey the laws of our imperial court."
Zhang Fei glanced at him and said, "Don't think so. It's not our decree, but the legal judgment of our imperial court. In fact, there are complete lending regulations in the Song Dynasty Xingtong, but no one usually takes these regulations seriously.
"
Shangguan Jun said: "Teacher, this tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Should we just close it when it is good?"
Ye Zuqia said excitedly: "How can you increase the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige? Of course you have to take advantage of the victory and pursue it."
The two men also have completely different personalities. Ye Zuqia is a bit arrogant and focuses more on gains and losses, while Shangguanjun is introverted and focuses on morality.
"You two, stop fighting!"
Zhang Fei said: "Actually, both of you are right. Since you want to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, you also want to stop when it's good."
After hearing this, the two of them were stunned at the same time.
"Can these two be done at the same time?"
"Then what's going on?"
Cai Jing said suddenly.
Zhang Fei turned his head and looked at Cai Jing, "For example?"
Cai Jing said: "The season of collecting autumn taxes will soon come."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Keep talking!"
Cai Jing knew that he had guessed correctly, and immediately said: "There are a lot of tricks in this tax collection. We can secretly let out the news. If the conversion method also applies to the autumn tax, many people will not dare to mess around."
Cai Bian's eyes lit up, "Brother, what you said makes sense. This is something that will benefit the country and the people. It can not only increase the revenue of the state treasury, but also reduce the burden on the people. It can also win the goodwill of the people for our imperial court."
"It would be too obvious to release the news."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "We just need to ask the police station to go to the government and ask if they want help. After all, many government officials have been transferred to the police station before, and tax collection requires manpower."
Cai Jing said: "It seems that the teacher has already thought of it."
Zhang Fei chuckled, "I'll leave this matter to you. Whether we can have a good harvest this autumn depends entirely on you."
Cai Jing cupped his hands and said, "Students will never let their teachers down."
Zhang Fei then said to the other three people: "You three, don't be idle. Now our imperial court is in full swing. Please recruit all the people from the law school."
"yes."
At this time, Xu Zhiqian on the side suddenly handed over several copies of the copy.
Zhang Fei took it and threw it on the table, "Admissions Program. Take a good look at it yourself."
Then he and Xu Zhiqian went out.
Shangguan Jun picked up a copy and whispered: "If you just look at the teacher's behavior, he really doesn't look like a teacher. We don't have that ability, so don't go to school. Don't make trouble in the law school."
joke."
The other three nodded in unison.
Suddenly a figure came in. The four of them were startled and turned their heads to look, only to see Zhang Fei appear at the door again.
"Shangguan, I forgot to tell you that the lady cleaning today is a little unwell, so I will leave this conference room to you."
"is teacher."
Shangguan Jun stood up quickly and responded.
"Good work!"
Zhang Fei nodded and left again.
After a long silence, and after confirming that Zhang Fei was really gone, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Shangguan Jun said: "Teacher, did you hear it?"
"It goes without saying."
Ye Zuqia laughed and said, "I just saw the aunt cleaning the table in the front hall."
Shangguan Jun slapped his mouth hard, "What a mouth!"
"Giggle!"
After leaving the small courtyard of the conference room, Xu Zhiqian couldn't help but laugh, "You! You are so narrow-minded!"
Zhang Fei put his arm around him: "I thought you would praise me for my sensitive hearing."
"go!"
Xu Zhiqian twisted his hand away and said, "Shangguan Jun is right, you don't look like a teacher."
Zhang Fei shrugged and said, "So I didn't say he was wrong!"
Xu Zhiqian secretly rolled her eyes and said, "But this Cai Jing really has some tricks up his sleeve. He can actually guess your next plan."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "You are joking, can my student be a good person?"
"That's true." Xu Zhiqian pursed her lips and smiled, and then said: "But can your method really make them afraid to exploit the people and make the big landowners pay taxes?"
Zhang Fei said: "It will be more or less effective. After all, they are also thinking in their hearts. It is still unknown whether we will be there next year. They don't want to be caught by us on the cusp of the storm. This is what I give to Xuesi Yuan and the others.
It’s a small gift, after all, the government is really short of money now.”
Suddenly I heard someone in front say: "Why are you back?"
Looking up, I saw Gao Wenyin holding a small basin and standing on the edge of the path.
"Have a holiday!"
Zhang Fei stepped forward and gently hugged Gao Wenyin, "That's why I'll come back early to stay with you."
Xu Zhiqian rolled her eyes and said, "It's not a holiday, it's just laziness."
Gao Wenyin immediately said: "Then don't talk about accompanying me, I can't bear this responsibility."
Zhang Fei was surprised and said: "When did Madam become so humorous?"
Xu Zhiqian smiled and said: "Didn't I learn this from you? If your students are not good people, then your wife!"
After saying this, she immediately shut up and remained silent.
Zhang Fei chuckled: "You have a very clear understanding of yourself!"
Compared to the leisure time in the Imperial Court, everyone in the Transportation Department is so busy that their heads are spinning.
Now the pressure is on the transshipment department.
Almost everyone, including Cai Yanqing, is counting on Yuan Jiang.
They are helpless.
This military expenditure is very complicated. It needs to come in here, it needs to go out there, it needs to be saved here, and it needs to be spent there.
It's terrible!
"It seems that we can only repeat the same old tricks."
Yuan Jiang sighed and said: "Dividing the debt into monthly expenditures and giving it to those soldiers can also reduce the burden of disarmament. If the laid-off soldiers happen to be in the process of claiming compensation, at least they can still receive monthly payments.
We will repay the money accordingly so that our livelihood will not be cut off at once.”
Cai Yanqing's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought to himself, I know you have already planned this.
Tang Zhongwen said: "Currently there are only five hundred people, but we may not be able to do so in the future. Our annual financial income is only so much. Unless the court allocates funds, it will be difficult to cope with it!"
Yuan Jiang said: "Therefore, we have to find ways to save money and make money."
"save money?"
All the officials were shocked. Is this to reduce the expenditure of our officials?
Yuan Jiang said directly: "Don't worry, your salary and treatment will not be reduced."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief immediately.
Yuan Jiang said: "I have carefully looked at the accounts of the three divisions in recent years and found that they were in such confusion that the transshipment division could not clearly understand the situation inside the warehouse.
The rags that were distributed to soldiers before were born from this.
Therefore, first of all, we need to re-plan the accounting statistics of the entire transportation department. For example, money, silk, salt, iron, tea, and grain must be reported to the transportation department. However, such as post materials, yard debts, repairs, bamboo and wood, sundries, and boats
, firewood, river construction materials, Shili bridge boat materials, carts, donkeys and grass, there is no need to report to the transportation department and they are classified as local finance."
Wei Yingfang asked: "Can we make the decision here?"
Financial power is very important to the imperial court. Can our little transportation department make the decision?
Yuan Jiang suddenly burst out: "Then the court will need someone else!"
Wei Yingfang was startled, and then he thought that Bachelor Yuan was still holding back a breath of resentment!
Now that things have happened, do you still want to act? Cai Yanqing hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Bachelor Yuan, please be a little angry."
"I'm fine!" Yuan Jiang waved her hands in annoyance, took a deep breath, and said: "In this way, the Third Division will be able to accurately know the specific situation of relatively large quantities of goods. It just so happens that the imperial court has just promulgated the equalization law, and we can also
By this method, you can buy cheap and sell dear, which will not only make a profit, but also reduce expenses and consumption."
The officials present nodded their heads.
Why those cloths have accumulated so much is because the transshipment department does not know the specific situation. The accounts are too complicated and it is difficult to know clearly. If it is those bulk commodities, adjustments will be made quickly so that this situation will not happen again.
Yuan Jiang added: "In addition, we decided to issue salt debts and salt banknotes before. In addition, the imperial court asked me to take charge of Changpingcang and preside over the Qingmiao Law. I plan to integrate these together to use salt banknotes and salt debts.
Changpingcang is the principal, which is used for lending and buying and selling goods to earn profits, which can be used to pay the money owed and the interest to be paid on the salt debt."
This time Cai Yanqing was stupid. If you put all this together, it would be a super financial system.
Is this really possible?
Even if he did this, Wei Yingfang was even more dumbfounded. This was even more terrifying than the account just now, and he asked blankly: "Scholar Yuan, is this possible?"
Yuan Jiang became excited again, "Then let the court change people. This is the only way I can do it. I just took office and they gave me such a huge debt. If this doesn't work, that doesn't work either, then I might as well go home and retire.
"
Cai Yanqing suddenly woke up and thought to himself, what a wonderful move! He first used the arrears of military expenses to get the court to order to put pressure on us, and then used this matter to threaten the court in turn. What a master!
He was so excited that he almost shouted!
Wei Yingfang also reacted, but in their opinion, Yuan Jiang is using your strength to fight. If you throw such a big debt to me, then I want power!
If you don't give me a replacement, let's see who dares to take over.
high!
They even forgot that they planned to use the Public Security Bureau to deal with Qingmiao Law!
Wei Yingfang and the others raised their hands and said, "Scholar Yuan's move is really brilliant!"
