When Bailang returned to the court, the first thing he did was to say that I wanted to hire Enke. At that moment, all the ministers shouted that the emperor is wise. As a result, the next sentence of this person was, "Just use half the number of soldiers for Enke. That's it."
Only four provinces are allowed to take the exam - to put it simply, the number of places remains unchanged from the beginning of the boy's exam to the end of the exam, and the number of Jinshi is reduced by half."
At that moment, about half of the ministers were in an uproar - they were southerners, and northerners were quite normal. These southerners did not dare to say that this kind of enke was not good. They just begged the emperor that since he was granting enke, it might as well benefit the scholars all over the world. Why do you think so?
I am deeply kind but only to these four provinces? "Because they have completed the clearing of the fields according to my wishes and divided the acres into acres to pay for the food." Bailang answered easily, "Don't treat them preferentially? Do you want to treat the southern provinces preferentially?
?”
The southern provinces, especially those bounded by the Huaihe River, are basically full of people who work hard and work hard. Especially in the Jiangnan area, the degree of fooling you is even higher than that of Yunnan and Guizhou - who knows that there are so many scholars there.
If you can't take action to deal with them now, let's leave it alone. Enke will have nothing to do with them this time.
Bai Lang wanted to start with the arrears of taxes and water transportation. The arrears of taxes would destroy the reputation of those scholars - do they have the guts to rebel? With the way they are, it is not Bai Lang who underestimates these scholars. It is impossible for them to rebel.
He is not a scholar of the Han and Tang Dynasties. If the world is destroyed, Bai Lang thinks that there should be many scholars who can become righteous men and just rebel? Let's forget it.
"From the Pacific Ocean to the Neva River" Bai Lang hummed a ditty. This time he would not go to court again. "From today on, I will be Wanli and be a man who will not go to court." Bai Lang was happily lazing around in Xiyuan. Of course, other things
The gardens are also under construction one after another - the Yuyuantan side is a comprehensive water conservancy project, and the Bailang garden is planned to be built so that people in the capital can enjoy it at will.
So there are no man-made buildings, it is all natural scenery - the excavated soil is piled up to form a ridge, and the surrounding areas are ready to be sold, but there is a prerequisite that it will be made into a public place to allow tourists to walk. As for the purchase and later used as a restaurant or brothel, that is
It is the buyer's own business. The places where the Old Summer Palace and the Summer Palace were later located were all included this time to prepare for the construction of the palace.
This time, more than one million taels of silver were allocated, and masters from the north and south were invited to create the landscape. At least the picture on the drawing was very beautiful - a large area of waterscape, which is rare in Jiangnan gardens. Bai Lang was quite satisfied.
, the officials didn’t have much to say - they used the internal funds from his commission. Although most of it went into the treasury, a lot of the proportional commission also went into Bailang’s internal funds.
Wanli used money from internal funds to build his own garden, so no one can say anything. It is better than his grandfather Jiajing who used money from the treasury to cultivate Taoism. Jiajing's Taoism practice embezzled the treasury, which makes him look ugly. Wanli is already considered a rare example of the Ming Dynasty.
The treasury is a wise man.
"Well, I can't be too busy lately. It will take at least three years to deal with the problems in the south. The four northern provinces have just been transformed. It will take at least these years to consolidate the results. I have to go out often.
Inspection. That's one thing that wasn't good about ancient society. The efficiency of governance was actually quite poor." Bai Lang was also a little helpless. Even though he was the best in martial arts at the time, he still couldn't do what he should not be able to do, and like this
There are too many things.
He himself is the world's leading military expert, and he personally leads thousands of invincible characters. However, if he is asked to study and improve steam engines, he is still a little lacking - so what if he can write down the mathematical principles of natural philosophy?
The soil in the Ming Dynasty is not thick enough now.
This matter must be left to Xu Guangqi - this guy is about the same age as Wanli, but he has to be in his forties before he can be admitted to the Jinshi. Anyway, Wanli has plenty of time, so there is no need to rush. In the past three years, he has been practicing his internal skills hard, and of course he has to clean up the Jiubian.
In terms of military strength, there is no need to retain many military positions, and there is no need for many senior generals.
"There's no use guarding against the Mongols all day long! Taking the initiative to attack and clearing holes is the right way to go!" This is Bailang's point of view. Let alone the Mongols, the Ming Dynasty equipped tens of thousands of cavalry and dispatched tens of millions of people every time.
Carrying out raids on the grasslands will severely weaken the Mongols in a few years. The most important thing is to take over the grasslands outside the mouth and directly bypass the mountains and enter Liaodong to raid the Jurchens.
Bailang planned to use the heads of some Mongolians and some Jurchens to build Jingguan. He planned to move all the rest of the Jurchens into the pass, or throw them to the south. It didn't matter how many died, but they had to be given Chinese names.
Han customs, hair accessories, and clothing are all Han. If not, then the skull will be left behind.
Bailang is not just targeting the Jurchens, he is going to do this to all foreigners - he has no interest in ethnic customs and clothing. He gives me a Han name and wears Han clothes to adapt to Han customs. Otherwise, I have to do it.
My species must go through the knife again and again.
Chieftain? I don’t allow anyone as awesome as me, Wanli, to exist in the territory of the Ming Dynasty!
Let Southeast let them jump first, but the people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei can be sent out first - what are they going to do? Of course they are asking for payment of outstanding debts, and they are also conducting supervision work. Everyone knows that this is basically formalism, but formalism
Doctrine is also useful, at least it can beat local bureaucrats, and it is not impossible to take people.
Of course, the governor must also be sent, this is all Bailang's method. Originally, these large-scale dispatches of Jin Yiwei would be criticized by the "world", but now the focus is not on this aspect, the focus is on Enke this time! Damn Bailang let the north
The four provinces plus Enke are not given to other provinces. What good is there? The whole world (except the four provinces) is scolded.
As for those who are quick-thinking, they are already thinking about whether they can register in those four provinces to participate in Enko, while other scholars are scolding them. The question is, so what if they are scolded? Does this person care today?
Are you guys yelling at each other? "There is still a chance to deal with them! They will cry bitterly when the time comes! I may not have many other scholars, but there are not many scholars who want to be officials?"
As for the rebellion? Rebellion for Enke? That's not impossible. Enke was used to be an official, not to rebel. At this time, Jiangnan could still collect a lot of business taxes, but Bailang wanted more.
So we must transport by sea, and water transport must be suppressed. It is better to transport a large amount of money and food by sea - silver is transported by water, and grain is transported by sea. Don't have any conscience towards the officials of the Ming Dynasty. If you use sea transport, Bailang is sure that these gangs
People dare to lose more than half of their silver
