Zhu Youxiao finally came out for a private interview in private, but was slapped by Jin Yiwei.
This is not to despise one's own longevity, what is this?
Jiang Wenlong cried.
His head hit the ground hard: "Your Majesty, this is a villain who has blind eyes and cannot see Mount Tai!"
Zhu Youxiao stood up, and the crowd around him suddenly woke up from a dream, and all knelt on the ground: "Long live my emperor!"
Zhu Youxiao said calmly: "Go back to the palace!"
What happened to Jiang Wenlong? In fact, it was no longer necessary for Zhu Youxiao to say it himself.
Eunuch Wei and Ke Guangxian will naturally handle this matter properly and strictly.
Xiyuan
Zhang Haogu got a basin of cold water and gave Zhu Youxiao an ice compress.
The cold feeling stimulated Zhu Youxiao to make a hissing sound, while Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, how do you feel?"
"so far so good!"
Zhu Youxiao covered his cheek and couldn't help but said: "This Jiang Wenlong is really ruthless!"
"Your Majesty, you still have to take care of your dragon body!" Zhang Haogu smiled and said, "This Jiang Wenlong is a pure accident!"
Zhu Youxiao raised his head and looked at Zhang Haogu: "Master, I really don't understand. Is it Jin Yiwei who likes to bully the market and bully merchants so much on weekdays? If I hadn't stopped him today, wouldn't he be the shopkeeper of Ruyi Cloth Shop?
Are you about to be arrested and sent to prison?”
What surprised Zhang Haogu was that Zhu Youxiao was not angry because he was beaten.
"emperor!"
Zhang Haogu nodded: "That's right!"
Zhu Youxiao pondered for a moment, and then said with great seriousness: "Master, if this is really the case, isn't this Jin Yiwei trying to ruin my reputation?"
"Jin Yiwei is very serious in handling cases and collecting intelligence!" Zhang Haogu didn't want to belittle Jin Yiwei too much.
Although he does many immoral things, there is one thing that Jin Yiwei is serious about.
"emperor!"
Zhang Haogu coughed, then said with a smile: "Have you ever thought that among them there are Jin Yiwei like Jiang Wenlong who bully men, dominate women, and humiliate the people, but there are also some Jin Yiwei who really want to have enough food and clothing?"
"kindness?"
Zhu Youxiao couldn't help being slightly stunned: "No money?"
"This is the same as the corruption of some officials, who have no money in their hands!" Zhang Haogu smiled and said: "Has the emperor ever thought that maybe the salary of the Jinyiwei may not be enough for their own expenses, so they have to blackmail the merchants?
They don’t have the money to rip off the store, but they have the power in their hands!”
"Their salary is not enough, but they have the power in their hands. If they have the power, they can make money for themselves!" While talking, Zhang Haogu changed another towel for Zhu Youxiao.
The little eunuchs on the side felt that they were redundant and wanted to serve the emperor, but there seemed to be no room for intervention.
"Master, what you mean is that Jin Yiwei should also be given a piece of silver to support his integrity?" Zhu Youxiao was stunned and couldn't help asking.
"That's not true!"
Zhang Haogu smiled, and then slowly said: "What I mean is to collect taxes!"
"Collecting taxes, whose taxes are collected?" Zhu Youxiao was stunned.
"Of course it's the taxes of these merchants!"
Zhang Haogu smiled and continued: "Has the Emperor ever thought about this question? Jin Yiwei exploits these merchants so much, why are these merchants still willing to continue Jin Yiwei's money? Moreover, they can still open stores for such a long time? What does this mean?
"
"What does it mean?"
Zhu Youxiao was stunned.
Zhang Haogu said: "They still make some money. In addition to these people, there are also some officials and nobles' shops. They don't have to pay taxes. My great ancestor, Emperor Gao, is still kind-hearted. I pay thirty taxes per one. I think that
, we might as well increase taxes at this time, and with the extra money collected, we can pay more wages to the royal guards!"
Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but said: "Is this okay?"
"Why not?"
Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, whether these shops or hawkers, they all want to calm down troubles. They are either ruffians, guards, or servants of the yamen. They all have to be dealt with.
, so it forms an unspoken rule! "
"In other words, whether the people or businessmen recognize the power of Jin Yiwei, they are willing to hand over money to Jin Yiwei so that Jin Yiwei will not cause trouble to them, and Jin Yiwei and these local ruffians also understand that they cannot
They will also let these traders make money based on the principle of fishing from the lake!"
Zhu Youxiao followed Zhang Haogu's train of thought, thought for a moment, and then nodded: "What the master said makes sense, so what the master means is that the money collected from this member should be treated as tax revenue for the imperial court. If the imperial court
We have formed laws and regulations here, and given Jinyiwei a sum of money to support their integrity. If they dare to continue to act recklessly, the court will punish them!"
This set of ideas is basically the idea of raising honest banks, and Zhu Youxiao is no stranger to it.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, this is just one of them. Your Majesty, please don't forget that there are some ruffians, and they also want to collect money. We can also collect their share!"
Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "Collect two cents and pay a salary. What businessmen long for is nothing more than a business environment where they can do business seriously. They might as well give it directly to the court and let the court protect their business environment.
!”
"It's just that after the Jinyiwei took the money, they have to do something!" Zhang Haogu paused slightly when he said this, and continued: "Your Majesty, these Jinyiwei are the eyes and ears of the emperor. I think we need to let them more
Do something, give them some tasks, such as cracking down on crime, cracking down on evil, etc."
"What about cracking down on crime? What about cracking down hard?" Zhu Youxiao asked.
Zhang Haogu said: "The natural thing is to crack down on these local gangsters and eliminate them so that businessmen can have a normal business environment. The second step is to give full play to their intelligence expertise and let them catch criminals part-time and let them actually handle cases.
Doing something for the common people can somewhat change their image in the hearts of the common people!"
Zhu Youxiao nodded: "What the master said is quite interesting. Then the candidate for the commander of the Jinyi Guards is the most important thing!"
"It cannot be a powerful person, otherwise it will only maintain its own interests. If you give this person an order, he will faithfully execute it. He must also have some means to suppress his subordinates!" Zhang Haogu added.
road.
Zhu Youxiao's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "Master, what do you think of Zhao Tiejun?"
"he?"
Zhang Haogu couldn't help being slightly stunned, thinking of this big man like an iron tower, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "If the emperor really thinks he can do it, then let him come!"
