Sure enough, Yun Lan shook her head and sighed: "According to your estimate, after you carry out the large-scale...industrial reform, there will be many miners who have nothing to do, leading to 'laid off', and then triggering a series of problems.
,Yeah?"
Yunzheng nodded and said: "Right now, our family has too much mining, and we use the most primitive mining and smelting methods. Not to mention the low efficiency, but the human resources used are very huge. According to my son's knowledge, there are hundreds of thousands of miners.
, after my son carries out reforms and adopts new equipment, there will be no need for so many people. There will definitely be a large number of people who have nothing to do. This group of people will have nothing to do, but they still have to eat. If they rely on the family to support them,
So, wouldn't it make no difference whether to reform or not? Of course, there is no way to make arrangements. For example, we can expand the mining area and the smelting industry will also expand, but this will take time. How can it be done in a short time? That's why my son thinks this
It’s a problem”
Yun Lan smiled: "I don't know what you think, father. The ideas mentioned in your letter seem to be quite reasonable, but now that you are worried, I am really confused about where all these people are.
, those who can work as miners are all young and strong laborers, and you are actually worried that they will have nothing to do? You, you... didn’t you say that you think our official roads in northern Xinjiang are not spacious and smooth enough? Didn’t you say that our northern Xinjiang still has nothing to do?
Is there a lot of wasteland suitable for reclamation? Didn’t you say that we need to build one or two very large docks to trade directly with other countries without relying on the imperial court? Didn’t you say that we should also talk about peaceful coexistence with the Liao Kingdom and even talk about peaceful coexistence with the Liao Kingdom?
Should we open several large-scale trade bazaars on the border?... To realize these ideas, don't we need manpower? If the reform of your mining area cannot change so many people, then we still have to do the above construction.
Think of ways to make it happen, wouldn't it be just right now? Those people you laid off can just join your newly planned projects, and there are also benefits: they were originally dismissed because they "did not do well"
If they are laid off, then they will definitely worry about having no place to live in the future, but you have found something new for them to do so that they can continue to use their salary to support their families (the Yun family is actually responsible for the staple food). Not only do you not have to worry about them
They may be dissatisfied, but they can still be grateful, so why worry?”
Yun Zheng was stunned. His father, a world-famous general, could actually do this. I have to say that Yun Lan's considerations are indeed correct. According to this idea, these people are not only not troublesome, but also the main force in the construction of another batch of projects.
"Father, it's my son's fault for not thinking carefully." Yun Zheng looked surprised.
Yun Lan waved her hand: "Are you praising your father like them?" He stopped Yun Zheng from explaining, pointed to the chair next to him and asked Yun Zheng to sit down. He also sat down on the main seat and pondered for a moment.
, Cai Dao: "The reform plans you mentioned are the so-called joint-stock system. My father and your uncle have already exchanged opinions. Although this idea has never appeared in our government, it is actually traceable. In the final analysis,
It's nothing more than privatizing the family industry and mobilizing the enthusiasm of the participants... According to your uncle's words, you are betting on 'human nature is inherently evil', or 'human nature is inherently selfish', but as a father you don't care about it, just like fighting a war.
As long as the battle can be won, does it matter what method is used? Whether human nature is inherently good or inherently evil, these are things that Confucian scholars love to discuss. From my father's point of view, it is all bullshit and not practical at all.
It has no effect! Therefore, I have no prejudice against the methods you have thought of. As long as they can indeed play the role you expected, I will give you enough support here!"
Yun Zheng was shocked when he heard Yun Lan say that human nature is inherently evil. This view is contrary to that of Yasheng Mencius. If his father was also very particular about Confucian ethics, he might have died in his cradle.
Unexpectedly, there is no way out, and there is a bright future in the village. Dad actually doesn't care about it at all! But when I think about it, I feel relieved. How can a famous general be so rigid? Naturally, he is a white cat and a black cat. He can catch mice.
What a good cat
"With the support of his father, the son's confidence will be much stronger," Yun Zheng said with a smile.
What Yun Lan admires about her son recently is that he dares to laugh and talk in front of her without any scruples. Apart from his mother, there is no other person in Yanjing who can do this.
Looking at the world, it should be added that Emperor Wanchang and Shui Youhan are both sons. Yunjun and Yun Gang are much more "honest" in front of him than Yun Zheng. Basically, they will do whatever Yun Lan says.
, I have to think about it for a while before I answer a word, for fear that if I answer it wrong, my father will be unhappy. Why is Yun Zheng so casual? What's more important is that Yun Zheng's casualness will not make him feel that he is being underestimated.
Majesty, but everywhere revealed a sense of closeness. It was the closeness between father and son, the feeling of blood connection, which doubled his affection for Yun Zheng.
Yun Lan also gave a rare smile: "Back to the original body, my father said that your worries are in the wrong place. It is easy to resettle the so-called laid-off miners, but the really difficult things still exist. You
Do you know?"
"Father please show me"
"What are you going to tell me? You should think about it yourself first. Once you have thought about it, tell me." Yun Lan glared at Yun Zheng and said.
Yun Zheng choked, thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "Father, are you talking about the equity distribution?"
Yun Lan nodded: "This is one of them"
Yun Zheng was stunned again, and after thinking hard for a while, he tentatively asked: "Announcement of accounts?"
Yun Lan nodded appreciatively: "Yes, it's exactly these two points." He took a sip of tea and said: "The trouble in equity distribution is so big. As a father, I feel that you haven't even thought about the nominal value of these industries now."
It belongs to the entire family, and the family is the master of the father, so these properties belong to the whole family in name, but in fact they should be controlled by the father. But in fact, under the father, that is, each mining area has its own
Leader, don’t think that because the appointment of these leaders requires the father’s nod, they are all fathers. In fact, this is not the case. Their appointments are actually decided by the clan assembly. The father nominally has decision-making power, but in fact he only has veto power.
Right, it is the clan assembly that really decides who is in charge of a mine. So according to your plan, our mining area will carry out joint-stock reform in the future. Here comes a question: How many shares should our clan master’s family hold? The original responsible person
How many shares should a person hold? Finally, how many shares should each miner hold? How to arrange this share will not make our family lose control of various industries, but will not let the people in charge oppose the radical and cause the clan meeting to cause trouble.
This is a big problem. You have to know that those responsible persons can be appointed by the clan assembly to serve in the mining area, which means that their connections in the assembly are now losing money in the mining area. You suspect that there are "shuo rats", but in fact these giants
It is very possible that the rats are these people, but because of their connections in the clan meeting, even if we are the clan leader's family, we cannot easily touch them. You must know that the reason why our Yun family has today's power is not just the clan clan master's family.
, there are at least dozens of "Yun Family Generals" in Northern Xinjiang, and they are all above the fifth rank, and even lower ones are even more. These people are the ones we control over 200,000 troops in Northern Xinjiang and more than 600,000
The foundation of the reserve army. If the internal conflicts within our Yun family are buried or intensified due to this shareholding system, not only you, but also your father will become the sinner of our Yun family."
When Yun Lan said this, her words became a bit heavy. Yun Zheng became solemn when he heard it, and frowned: "My father's concerns are very true, but my son still thinks too simply."
Yun Lan ignored him and continued: "As for the implementation of the joint-stock system, according to your plan, every miner, from the family of our sect leader to the smallest miner, all owns shares. It's just that the sizes vary greatly, but in fact
They are all 'owners' of the mining area. You mean that this can stimulate the motivation of the miners. My father can understand this, but this requires the accounts to be made public so that every miner knows how much ore is produced every month.
, how much money was sold, and how much they can share in proportion...right?"
Yunzheng nodded: "That's it. When every miner's income is linked to the mining area, they have to work harder, because it is not only related to our Yun family's income, but also to himself.
How much salary can you get every month? But the supervision mechanism is very important. My son has always had a point of view. The reason why corrupt officials are corrupt is not that he is the first problem, but that there is a problem with the system, especially the supervision system. If the supervision system
Perfect, corrupt officials cannot be greedy for money at all. That is how to fundamentally prevent the emergence of corrupt officials. As for hoping that all officials will obey the teachings of saints...then sows can climb trees."
Yun Lan was a little stunned, frowned and said: "My father heard that you said, 'You are a scornful servant, and only Nishan is left alone'." It seems that you still obeyed Kong Sheng. Today, it seems that you are not even Confucius.
See it in your eyes”
Yun Zheng said with a smile: "Well... Anyway, what my son means is that we will formulate rules and regulations in the future. The first thing that needs to be changed is: we cannot assume that all the people we use are good people and upright officials. We must first assume that the people we use are good people and honest officials."
All people are corrupt officials. Under this assumption, when we formulate laws and regulations, we must reach a state where no matter how corrupt you are, under our system, you will not be able to corrupt anything. My son thinks
Such laws and regulations are rigorous and fair, so the role of accounting disclosure is also here, letting everyone know the profit and loss of income and expenditure, and how much money each person can take. This is fair and equitable, and can reduce or even avoid "rats"
'The presence"
Yun Lan frowned: "But have you ever thought about it, if your reform is really successful and its income reaches the level predicted in your letter, such data will be published and reach the ears of the person in Luoyang
, will there be any consequences?”
Yunzheng was stunned immediately
Yun Lan glanced at him and said calmly: "You are the eldest son of my Yun family. The things you have to take care of in the future are not just the things you have to deal with now. Stand tall and not only have to see far, but also see far.
"Dequan." Although he spoke in an indifferent tone, his eyes were looking at Yunzheng very seriously, watching his every move.
Yunzheng pondered for a moment, and suddenly said firmly: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will consider this matter carefully and try to find a way to get the best of both worlds."
Yun Lan smiled and waved her hand: "Okay, you go first."
----------------------------------------After Yun Zheng left, Yun Lan suddenly said:
"Madam, what do you think?" As if speaking to the air
But suddenly a graceful figure walked out of the lounge behind the study. It was Ning Wanting.
Ning Wanting looked a little confused: "How come Zheng'er's martial arts has improved so quickly recently? If I hadn't gone all out, I might have been noticed by him just now."
Yun Lan smiled brightly: "When he walked to the door, before you paid attention to him, he noticed it at that time. My husband could see it clearly. When he came in, he looked at the small door pretending to be casual.
Take a look"
Ning Wanting's face turned red: "I really didn't expect that he has made such great progress. It seems that he has already broken through to the seventh level of the health master. If this is true, at his current age, he is probably even worse than Brother Ding back then."
Progressed very quickly”
Yun Lan thought for a while: "Brother Xiaohan couldn't find anyone for so long, but last time he suddenly asked Zheng'er to send a letter about Yueyang Junshan. Could it be that he secretly followed Zheng'er and took advantage of Zheng'er being stabbed twice to force him
Lift up Zheng'er's inner strength?"
Ning Wanting frowned and said, "He is so elusive anyway, who knows where he is?"
Yun Lan smiled bitterly: "What happened back then actually had nothing to do with Brother Xiaohan. He couldn't bear any responsibility. Why are you still like this after so many years? If the eldest sister saw it in the sky, wouldn't she be in trouble too?"
Ning Wanting just didn't say anything, and Yun Lan had no choice but to change the topic back and said: "Zheng'er's martial arts is being watched by Brother Xiaohan, so nothing will happen to him. Let's talk about whether the other ladies feel that Zheng'er's martial arts has been so bad in the past six months.
Is the progress too much?"
Ning Wanting was obviously also a little confused: "When he suddenly started to care about some things in the family and the court a few years ago, I was quite happy. I felt that my son had finally figured it out. He knew that he was the heir, and these things could not go away.
You need to know, but then he suddenly became full of literary talents. Even so many ministers and writers were impressed by him. Even his uncle's letter praised him as much as Hua'er, so I felt a little strange to talk about Zheng'er's martial arts skills.
I can understand that he is making rapid progress. After all, his master is great and he is also extremely hard-working. It is not surprising that he is good at the art of war. He has a family background, but his literary talent... I really can’t understand it. When I taught him how to read in Luoyang, he
Those assignments are often ghostwritten by Lin Xi and Yan'er. How come it turned out to be Li Bai's reincarnation and Du Fu's rebirth in a blink of an eye? But it can also be said that he hid his clumsiness in the past, but it was only later that he could no longer hide it and showed it.
Where did the ability come from? Husband, look here: 'Fourth, establish a new industrial system to achieve clear property rights, clear rights and responsibilities, separation of government and mining, scientific management, and improve the decision-making, execution and supervision system, so that mining can become an independent operation.
I can generally understand the meaning of "legal entities and market entities that are responsible for their own profits and losses," but these words... "science," "legal entity," and "market entity," where did they come from?"
Yun Lan spread her hands and smiled bitterly: "You take care of more children than my husband does. You don't even know about it. How can I know about it?"
Ning Wanting rolled her eyes at her husband, thought about it, and felt relieved: "No matter how strange it is, it is still her own child. It is always a good thing that the child has become smarter and more capable. Why bother with so much?"
Yun Lan glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, and finally said slowly: "My husband is worried that this child has high ambitions."
"What's wrong with having a high ambition?" Ning Wanting said with a smile, but her laughter suddenly stopped and her face turned pale: "You mean he has a plan... for a great cause?"
"My husband doesn't know." Yun Lan sighed: "But everything he did was to vigorously strengthen the basic strength of our Yun family. If we follow the plan in his letter, it will only take five years for our Yun family to
Not only does his military strength continue to grow, but it is also possible that the economic strength of just two provinces can catch up with the imperial court and strengthen the Yun family. This is not surprising, but he also plans to operate overseas. According to the "Ten Thousand Miles of Sea Territory Map" he submitted to his husband,
It means that if his plan is completed, the Yun family will semi-surround the Wei Dynasty from overseas. By then, if he really has something on his mind..."
Ning Wanting's face was pale and she was speechless for a long time. Seeing that her husband was a little worried, Ning Wanting forced a smile and said: "These are troubled times. Isn't it a blessing for the Yun family that Zheng'er is so capable? Husband, don't worry, just discipline him more in the future.
"
The couple each had their own thoughts and stopped talking.
After a while, Ning Wanting couldn't sit still anymore and said: "Husband, I want to go to Heyuan to hear what I have to say. It seems that there are many things about Zheng'er that we don't know yet.
