A new round of auctions has started outside. This time it is still some small salt farms. Qi You promptly presented the brochure and looked through it. Zhu Youtang nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a smile: "It's done."

Yes, very detailed. I heard that your Salt and Iron Department has set up new salt officers in every salt field?"

"Your Majesty, the original management team and salt field ambassador have been adjusted." Qi You explained quickly.

Setting up a new Salt Officer, not to mention the Minister of Household Affairs who is in charge of the Salt and Iron Division, even the cabinet does not have the courage. This is the authority of the emperor. What qualifications do you have to do this? You are seeking death.

After listening to Qi You's words, Zhu Youtang smiled, waved his hand and said: "I'm going out on patrol incognito. This is not for the emperor. There's no need to be so formal. I just want to know how you manage it. Let's talk about it!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Qi You quickly agreed.

Zhu Houzhao was watching the excitement and saw that Qi You was still not slacking off, so he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. Although his father said that he went on patrol incognito and there was no need to be cautious, but if Qi You really took it seriously, then he would be a fool.

Yes. How many leaders in later generations have said this: This is in private, not in the workplace. We are all friends, so relax.

Anyone who believes this is a fool. What you say will be brought to the boss to talk to the boss later, and he will definitely take it to heart. If you give your opinion, he will definitely remember it and even give you some shoes.

A leader who really wants to listen will not say such words or ask questions like this. He will listen with actions rather than in this way.

Qi You naturally understood in his heart. After working hard in the officialdom for so many years, Qi You could not climb to the position he is today, let alone curry favor with Shouning Hou.

If you are in a high position, you must have special skills. Maybe your professional ability is not good, but he will definitely be a good person in terms of flattery and interpersonal relationships.

People like Qi You who are capable, can handle interpersonal relationships, and can flatter people have a bright future.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen has divided the salt fields. Each large salt field has an ambassador, and each small salt field has a management library." Qi You said with a smile: "The management library is responsible for coordinating the salt merchants and kitchen household production teams.

, the transaction between the salt dealer and the production team requires full supervision by the warehouse. If the transaction does not go through the warehouse, it is selling private salt."

"If there is corruption in the management warehouse, kitchen households and salt merchants can report to the Salt and Iron Department. I have already promoted secret reporting within the Salt and Iron Department."

"Treasurers and ambassadors, salt merchants and kitchen households can all report secretly to the Salt and Iron Department. The Salt and Iron Cleaning Department is responsible for this matter. In addition, the imperial salt inspection censor is also watching, no matter where there are people

The Salt and Iron Department can detect corruption immediately." Qi You said with a smile: "The Salt and Iron Department manages all the salt fields of the imperial court to ensure the orderly operation of the salt administration."

"His Royal Highness the Prince's production team system ensures that the kitchen households have profits. Every time they dry out a piece of rock salt, they will all get money. The more they dry out, the more they earn. This money will be uniformly distributed to the management warehouse by the Salt and Iron Department.

In the hands, the treasury will be distributed uniformly. If the treasury is corrupt, the kitchen households can report it secretly. This will increase the enthusiasm of the kitchen households. The method of drying salt promoted by His Highness the Prince has greatly increased the salt production.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made a great contribution."

Qi You did not flatter Zhu Youtang, but instead flattered Zhu Houzhao vigorously. The knowledge in this was great.

Flattering the prince is equivalent to flattering the emperor. If both of them are present, it is equivalent to flattering two people together. What Qi You did is called familiarity.

In addition, in this paragraph of Qi You's speech, he brought up the secret memorial, which was obviously to support Shen Lu, the General Secretary. Zhu Houzhao glanced at Qi You, this person is interesting, he is really going to A group has been formed around Zhang Heling. The main members of this group are Qi You and Shen Lu, and they will probably win over others.

Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything. He really needed someone to support his restructuring. If they could do it, that would be great.

Having more power is not a bad thing. As long as you can stand upright and do things, then you are a good official. Being an official is an official. Now that you are an official, it is not a bad thing to want to be a high official, as long as you don't go astray. For the time being, you can take a look and observe it.

After hearing Qi You's words, Zhu Youtang smiled brightly, stroking his beard and asked: "Is the secret reporting system effective?"

"Your Majesty, it's very effective. The secret reporting system has been implemented for more than three months. The Salt and Iron Division has found 30 treasuries and two ambassadors, all of whom are corrupt people." Qi You nodded, his face He said solemnly: "I originally wanted to report this matter to you after the auction of the salt farm management rights is completed. I ask your Majesty to severely punish these people to serve as a warning to others."

After listening to Qi You's words, Zhu Youtang took a deep look at him, then nodded and said: "They should be severely punished. These people are so bold and reckless. Come back and come back to the last question book!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Qi You agreed quickly, secretly happy in his heart. Once this was done, the prestige of the Salt and Iron Division would be completely established, and by then his own prestige would also be completely established.

"It's time to tell some people that the salt field is no longer a place where they can reach out." Zhu Youtang said with a serious face: "Why is it so lively outside?"

Qi You glanced outside, and then reported: "Your Majesty, the bidding for the Lianghuai Salt Farm has begun."

This is destined to be a big fight for the Lianghuai Salt Fields, not only because the output of the Lianghuai Salt Fields is the highest among all salt fields, but also because the transportation of the Lianghuai Salt Fields is convenient and the transportation cost is low. You can go south by the Huai River and north by the canal. , taking the Yellow River to the northwest, it is very convenient to transport, with wide coverage, fast transport speed, and you can make money even while lying down.

"Is the Lianghuai Salt Field the last salt field?" Zhu Youtang fanned his fan and asked with a smile.

Qi You nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is the last salt field."

"How much money did you spend earlier?" Zhu Houzhao asked at the side. He knew that his father wanted to ask this, but he was still a little embarrassed.

"I'll go out and take a look!" Qi You agreed and then turned around and went out, and soon came back from the outside: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, the auction that has been completed previously, the total amount was 436 More than ten thousand taels of silver."
Chapter completed!
