Chapter 284 Zhu Youwen Makes Great Contributions(1/2)

Jinyiwei's reform is from the inside out.

The first step is to amend the internal laws.

Formulate new regulations on rewards and punishments.

Moreover, Guo Tianyi also promulgated a reporting system.

The former Jinyiwei were close ministers of the emperor and had too much power.

This resulted in many Jin Yiwei being able to deceive the superiors and deceive the inferiors, and form cliques to cause harm to one party.

What's more, they even colluded with local officials.

It is human nature for officials to be corrupted. People are greedy, and Jinyiwei is no exception.

Therefore, the reporting system emerged.

Anyone can report anonymously.

The supervisory censors under the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple can form a check and balance with the Jinyiwei.

As long as there is an anonymous reporting letter, you can report it.

If he is found guilty after investigation, he will be severely punished.

The promotion rules within Jinyiwei have also been changed.

Originally, Jin Yiwei's salary was very high.

For example, although Cai Xuan is only of the second rank, his salary and status combined are no different from those of Jiu Qing.

Jinyiwei's internal regulations require that arresting corrupt officials and criminals accumulate performance points, and a new duty report is added once a year.

The world's best guards.

You need to go to Beijing once a year to report on your work.

If the work report link is not consistent with the political performance, or if they act recklessly in the local area, no one will be able to escape.

All new rules were formulated by Wang Yuan and other Legalist leaders after Guo Tianyi authorized them.

At the same time, the imperial court also added new financial laws.

There are laws targeting various financial crimes, illegal financing, and illegal loan sharking.

As soon as the new law came out, the wealthy and landlord class started to complain.

Some nobles even went to the homes of high-ranking officials to complain.

"Prime Minister, you have to make the decision. With just one word from His Majesty, many debts can be canceled..."

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, we are old acquaintances. You have to advise His Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister..."

"..."

The threshold of Yuwen Yuanzhen's mansion was almost broken by people.

In addition to Yuwen Yuanzhen's mansion, the mansions of other officials also have such a scene.

Unfortunately, no one was willing to speak.

After a few days, Yuwen Yuanzhen and others even closed the door and stopped seeing guests.

Everyone knows that the new laws promulgated by Guo Tianyi may affect the interests of some people.

However, in the long run, the new law will definitely be a good thing for the country and the people.

There are too many people who cannot live because of exploitation.

With the new law, at least they don't have to work long hours for one landlord for several generations.

Without such despicable and despicable methods of exploitation, landlords can only pay wages normally.

because....

Just days after the financial law was enacted, the labor law was also enacted.

Legalist leaders from Wang Yuan's faction were overjoyed.

As Legalists, their philosophy is to govern the country according to law and safeguard imperial power.

The new legal concept proposed by Guo Tianyi suddenly made them enlightened.

It turns out that the law can still be customized in this way?

The introduction of the new labor law stipulates that even slaves' wages must not be less than the minimum basic wage in various places.

The landowners were completely dumbfounded.

In the past, they used to keep shouting that the emperor loves his people as his sons.

But now that many new laws have been promulgated, they have realized what it means to truly love the people as children.

the other side.

It has been a long time since Guo Tianyi sent people to find the cow dung country.

During this period, many merchants went to the southern Yi countries.

On the one hand, the money here is so good.

Wude Tongbao is a hard currency, and you can earn a lot of money just by transporting goods from the Central Plains.

Secondly...

It’s about finding the route to cow dung country.

His Majesty has said that anyone who finds clues will be rewarded heavily, and if he can find the route, he can be made a marquis.

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.

Among them, wealthy people like Zhu Youwen were the first to set out.

Zhu Youwen is indeed a genius in business, and he became the largest businessman in the Southern Yi countries in just half a year.

Just for his previous tax donation, Zhu Youwen was extremely generous and donated 200 million yuan.

Not only did he take the lead, he also set an example for businessmen all over the world.

What's more, he was Guo Tianyi's future father-in-law.

In just a few years, Zhu Tingting, a talented woman, enters the palace, and Zhu Youwen becomes a relative of the emperor.

In the blink of an eye.

Winter has arrived.

"Master, Master..." A servant ran into Zhu Youwen's mansion in the Nanyi Kingdom and said, "We found a strange-looking man, and we couldn't understand the bird language he spoke.

Maybe they are from the cow dung country..."

"What?"

Zhu Youwen, who was leisurely sipping tea, stood up with a "ru" sound and said excitedly, "Bring it up quickly."

"Yes, sir."

After a while, a servant came in with a dark-skinned man.

This man is seven feet tall and looks dirty.

But the silk and satin he wore represented that his identity was not simple.

It can be seen that this man was able to travel to the Southern Yi countries and suffered a lot.

However, an embarrassing scene occurred.

Because of the language barrier, Zhu Youwen and this man were unable to communicate.

Zhu Youwen could only stare blankly, and first settled the man and several of his accompanying servants in the house.

"Quickly, go find someone who understands the language of cow dung."

"Yes, sir."

...........

After two days of searching.

Finally I found a translator who understands the Chinese language of cow dung.

After the exchange through the translator, Zhu Youwen was shocked.

The dark-skinned man in front of me is actually a prince from the Cow Dung Kingdom?

The vassal king of the Cow Dung Kingdom is different from the vassal king of Da Feng.

In the Cow Dung Kingdom, they are called Tubang Kings, and the connections between the various vassal states are not close.

The man's name was Su Diba, and he was the eldest prince of Gampo Kingdom.

His father died of illness not long ago, but he was framed by his younger brother and had to escape from death.
