Chapter 127 I want to be promoted (1)
Any outstanding emperor needs to grow.
For example, before becoming emperor, Emperor Shizong of the Qing Dynasty, he was a prince for more than 40 years. He had been in charge of various ministries since he was a teenager and knew the shortcomings of the empire.
For example, Emperor Yongle in the original time and space, was a fiefdom in his teens, and he was on horseback and led his troops to govern the people. Behind his outstanding martial arts, he was a skilled master of governing the country. Even in terms of martial arts, Jianwen was as weak as a vanguard in terms of governing the country and power struggles.
It’s like the young man who is just about to be released in the Qinhuai River!
As for Zhu Yunxiu, even though he had the experience of systematically learning imperial government affairs in the past few years, he had good power and ruthless skills. But after all, he had no experience in grassroots practice. To put it nicely, he could plan the overall situation.
To put it bluntly, he is a keyboard warrior at this stage, and at most he is a keyboard warrior with no distortion.
Furthermore, as an emperor, he could not master all levels of the empire.
Now it is not an information society, and the ruling structure is even more different. Everything needs to be reported by people to know. This depends on whether the people below report it or not.
To put it bluntly, even the old man who came from the bottom of the country could not cover everything, and sometimes he felt very powerless.
"You said it well, reminding me that the warehouses and grains in various places are deficient, far more than the governments in various places! Moreover, the governments in various places are all confused." Zhu Yunxiu rubbed his temples, "Officials cleverly used the name of collecting grain to fill their own bags. Or they were just bold and used the old grain as new grain to fill in the amount, and then sold the new grain!"
As he said that, Zhu Yunxi sighed, "I have long wanted to deal with it, but I didn't make any effort for a while. You also know that things need to be done step by step, let's talk about it..."
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu glanced at Li Zhigang, "There is no suitable staff! It's difficult!"
"Isn't this ready-made living person here?"
Li Zhigang shouted silently in his heart, "I am not afraid of offending people, I am not afraid of being difficult to deal with. I just like this feeling of trampling people under my feet to arbitrate the world!"
He not only had to fire at the gentry class, but also at the landlords and at the literati.
You must also fire the corrupt officials in the world! Fire the fire at all the unspoken rules!
"When I first started working in the North, I thought about being loyal to the emperor!" Li Zhigang organized his words carefully and said slowly, "But the more I understand the inside story of the local area, the more I feel that the emperor's new policy is far-sighted!"
Zhu Yun's face turned red and he picked up the teacup.
"Once the new policy is implemented, the middle and lower-class peasants and people will applaud and cheer up!" Li Zhigang shook his head and continued, "The privileges of gentry will not only allow the court to directly grasp the power of money and grain in their hands, but also open up the source of the national treasury. It can also directly place power in the countryside!"
"This person is really... It's a pity to be a cruel official!" Zhu Yunxiu said in his heart.
The idea of the new policy is not a day or two, but among the ministers in the court, there are very few who can understand the last sentence of power in the countryside and order the people.
"The corruption of all dynasties is entirely attributed to the upper class, which is slightly biased!" Li Zhigang looked at Zhu Yunxi's expression and continued, "In my opinion, the biggest reason is that the upper class has lost control of the grassroots and cannot effectively mobilize and control it, which is the basis."
"Hold the lower part tightly, even if the upper part is negligent, it can delay it. If you want food and people, you need people, and even if there is chaos in the world, you are not afraid of it. But if the lower part is rotten, no matter how much you want to recover it, it will be difficult to reach the sky! Because the upper part comes from the lower part, and without the lower part, the upper part is rootless duckweed!"
Zhu Yunyu picked up the tea bowl again, but he just couldn't listen.
But he deeply agreed with Li Zhigang's words. Take the Ming Dynasty in the original time and space for example. Is it because it has no money? Is it because it has no food? Is it because it has no rush to fall out?
There are everything below, but I can only worry about it and can't raise anything. At the end, I can't get anything done!
Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Li Zhigang became a little anxious.
"The emperor's talent is far superior to the kings of all dynasties, and he is more willing to work hard to govern! I eat the wealth of the Ming Dynasty and receive the kindness of the emperor. Although I am not talented, I also have the intention to assist the emperor in making achievements and keep a name in history!" Li Zhigang simply said it out, "And the reason why I raised the drawbacks of the official warehouse is that I think that eliminating this drawback can complement the new policy!"
"In time, I, the Ming Dynasty, had no worries about gentry and no troubles about storage. What a glorious era that would it be!"
"I feel no comfort in my words!" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "Especially your heart that has the heart to leave a name in history, it is enough to comfort me!" Then, a sighed and rubbed his temples, "If everyone is like you, how could I still be so tired?"
As he said that, he sighed again, "Some people cannot see the hidden dangers of the Ming Dynasty, but they are unwilling to say them. They all want to make up for the sewing and whitewash the peace. How can you do this? It's like you, and it's a sharp pain!"
"I'll kill them!"
Li Zhigang shouted in his heart.
But he looked extremely heartbroken, "I am in the north and I am really shocking to see the hidden dangers of Guan Cang! They are digging the roots of my Ming Dynasty!"
"Since you have seen it, let me tell you what to do?" Zhu Yunxi suddenly changed his position and asked.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhigang was delighted, but he looked thoughtful.
"First of all, we must strengthen supervision!" Li Zhigang said slowly, "The Changping Warehouses in various prefectures are managed by the prefecture officials. In my opinion, there are too many things in the hands of local officials, so they are inevitably unable to take care of them, so the minor officials below have an opportunity!"
Zhu Yunxiu frowned slightly, "It's not that they don't know! They pretend not to know!" As he said, he sneered, "I don't need to ask someone to investigate to understand. What they thought was to push it to the people below when something happened, but the money that was deficient in the grain deficit of the Run warehouse was not ruthless at all!"
"The emperor has a clear understanding of thousands of miles, and has insight into people's hearts, and I am impressed by all my strength!" Li Zhigang immediately flattered.
"Stop talking!" Zhu Yunqiu has long been immune to this kind of flattery.
"So, the right to manage the permanent settlement is stripped from the local officials and the Ministry of Revenue will be directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Revenue!" Li Zhigang said, with a hint of hideousness in his eyes, "Or, simply set up a grain yamen, and the emperor will directly manage it!"
"Well!" Zhu Yunxiu frowned, "Will you want to increase your official position again?"
"The censors from all over the country can be appointed!" Li Zhigang said, "The censors are directly selected by the emperor!"
"This guy is so fucking bad!" Zhu Yunxiu said in his heart.
The so-called inspection and censorship are not permanent officials. They are sent by the central government to local governments every year for surprise inspections to see if there are any corruption and bribery, whether there are any favoritism and abuse of power, and whether there are any unjust, false and wrong cases.
The original intention is good, but over time it becomes a matter of face. The people above come down, the people below sit down, and everyone is happy to eat and drink.
As the name suggests, the inspector censor is to inspect. When you report what you see, it is thankless and extremely offensive. But the premise of not wanting to offend people is that you have no right in your hands.
Once the inspector becomes a permanent official position and has authority, the local area will be in chaos.
"Secondly, we will give a clear reward and punishment!" Li Zhigang said again, "The inspection censor once every two years. During his tenure, the accounts were clear. There was no deficit in the warehouse and grain, and there was no oppression of the people. Reward!" As he said that, he paused, "As for how to reward, you must make the decision, the emperor!"
"What about the punishment?" Zhu Yunxi asked immediately.
"I think it is for the crime of corruption!" Li Zhigang was immediately murderous. "Greater is the lifeblood of the country and is related to the people's livelihood of the world. How crucial is it? Anyone who boasts of more than a hundred stones will be killed and imprisoned will not be forgiven!"
"This guy is not only cruel, but also knows how to do things!"
