The reason why this matter has never been brought up in court is that there is no suitable entry point.
Now, in the remarks of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...
Everyone was excited now. As for Cui Langzhong's flushed face, no one cared.
Even Fu Bi didn't care what happened to Langzhong Cui. He was thinking about Zhao Xi's words...
From the moment Zhao Xi opened his mouth with a mocking tone, Fu Bi began to think about it.
Who is His Highness the Crown Prince? He knows it too well. He never plays tricks and prefers to go straight. If he plays tricks... he will definitely be ready to bury someone again.
"Your Majesty, what His Royal Highness the Prince said is absolutely true! If you want to do something well, you must first sharpen your tools. The saint will never deceive me."
"We saw the changes in Gongfang City, so we thought about the current government of the country. For officials to govern, the conditions of the government are also their tools!"
"An old official in the Ministry of Personnel fell ill because of the ground in his office, and the office in the Ministry of Husband discarded documents due to flooding. It is indeed a disadvantage to his tools."
"Now, seeing the state of Gongfang City, there is a huge surplus from the imperial tax revenue. Why is it not a good tool for officials to govern?"
"I also hope that the imperial court will grant permission and the general will be the supervisor to repair the palace!"
That's right. Zhao Xi couldn't help but raise his lips...but Fu Bi saw clearly.
"Your Majesty, ministers and ministers, the tools for officials to govern are public servants, while the tools for soldiers to defend the country are armaments and border walls and forts..."
Yes, that’s right!
Fu Bi already understood at this time.
It sounds like a bastard. A prince, repairing and renovating the border walls for the country, actually has to play tricks in the court!
Fu Bi really felt a little emotional, not only for the court, but also for His Highness the Crown Prince.
It's not easy, it's really not easy, and it's really hard for him.
"Your Majesty, I believe that if it is feasible for the imperial court to establish a branch, the side walls should be reinforced with cement and the renovation of the palace should be carried out at the same time!"
If he didn't push it at this time, Fu Bi would feel depressed.
I am not fighting alone... The moment Fu Bi spoke, Zhao Xi had such emotion.
It would be unfair to say that all the ministers and ministers of the country are bastards; but to say that they all care about the country and the people is also nonsense.
The recruitment of scholars by the dynasty, regardless of birth, formed the so-called governance of poor families.
In Zhao Xi's view, the scholar-bureaucrats of the imperial dynasty cannot be called a poor family, or the concept of this poor family has different reference.
As far as the current literacy rate of the country is concerned, it is impossible to talk about the imperial examination for a purely poor family. The so-called poor family is only relative to the wealthy families of the previous dynasty.
There is a saying in later generations: the butt determines the head. The same applies to this era.
Everyone has his own position and his own interests.
The current scholar-bureaucrat class in the country is better said to be the political power of the landlord class. In terms of vision and knowledge, they cannot compare with the aristocratic families, but their pursuit of interests is even greater than that of the aristocratic families.
It seems that they are missing one thing: the attitude of being a master of their family, country, and world.
In the previous dynasties, or even further back, the so-called emperors were just spokespersons elected by powerful families. It would be more appropriate to say they were Daitian herdsmen, or Daitian herdsmen.
To a certain extent, the interests of the emperor and the aristocratic family, that is, the ministers, are the same.
But the dynasty...the officials and workers only used sharing the world as an excuse to ask for more rights and benefits, but did not really relate the world to their own family.
This is not a theory of origin, it is a fact.
It may also be the state of mind of being suddenly rich, or that you are accustomed to it after being a scholar for hundreds of years. Once you become a scholar-official, you will be keen on rights and enjoyment, as well as seeking benefits for your own family or your own class and group...
Zhao Xi saw it very clearly, which was why he had been recruiting some people to get involved in various industries.
"Your Majesty, I second the proposal of the rich prime minister!"
Here comes another one! Seeking benefit for oneself is not scary, but what is scary is thinking only about seeking benefit for oneself.
I hope that on the basis of seeking my own benefit, I can take into account the interests of the people and the country... With this in mind, it is not too cowardly.
"I second the proposal of a wealthy prime minister. However, the imperial court's financial resources are limited, so it will inevitably return to the old way of eating Yin and Mao grain..."
Is it very expensive? Maybe! It’s just that I can’t wrap my head around it.
"Your Majesty, dear ministers, cement is a new product and has not yet been included in the court's tax revenue. Now that the public buildings are being repaired and the side walls are renovated, the tax revenue on cement will inevitably increase."
"The imperial court will support peace until there is no cement tax revenue. Therefore, Xi suggested that the imperial court can use the cement tax revenue in the future to pay and buy cement for the expenditure of the border wall."
"In other words, the imperial court only needs to pay for the cost of repairing and renovating the public buildings, temporarily exempting cement from taxes, and using future cement tax revenue to offset the cost of repairing and renovating the side walls."
"Nowadays, the imperial court has a commissioner responsible for the tax revenue of Gongfang City. It doesn't matter how much the tax revenue is, how much it is spent, when it will be equalized, etc."
This... okay. That's it.
For the bastard courtiers, as long as they can transform the public house into an environment like a workshop city... As for whether to repair the border wall or not, the court doesn't have to worry about it.
For those who are concerned about the country and the people, this is also a good way to improve the border wall... It does not cause trouble, does not increase expenditures, and solves the problem of public housing and the border wall at the same time, which is very good.
Zhao Xi really didn't want to make money, he just wanted to push the cement away... This was not just a public house and a side wall, but also a major change in the entire building materials.
Then came city walls, dams, and even civil buildings...
"In addition, we kindly request the imperial court to transfer the imperial army to the civilian army so that there are enough personnel for cement manufacturing, transportation and construction."
…
The court's agreement spread quickly, not in the marketplace, but among officials at all levels in the court.
Everyone knows that this court meeting will bring about a very large expansion of the cement industry...
The question is, which should be mixed with track or cement? Both should be profitable businesses.
"Duanyan, stop what you're doing. My father doesn't agree with this."
"Dad, His Highness the Crown Prince's orbital transport capacity has been demonstrated. Now the country and the dynasty are in charge of the orbital business..."
"You also know that the track belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince? Now you want to leave His Highness the Crown Prince... Do you really think that you are also His Highness and have the abilities of His Highness? What a bunch of idiots!"
"No more words! Get up and go to Bianliang tomorrow. Except for leaving some daily expenses at home, take the rest to Bianliang."
"You go and contact that Zhao Qin, and you will bring a letter from your father to Your Highness. The Han family's assets are all at Your Highness's disposal, whether it is tracks or cement, it is up to Your Highness to decide how to spend them!"
Several times, Han Qi became more and more unable to see through His Highness, but he knew that the one who had the last laugh would always be His Highness. This time, the whole court was busy on the same track.
He finally made up his mind.
Sigh... Being far away from the court is a bit delayed. Many things can only be obtained from the arrival report and the market.
While the courtiers were laying tracks on a large scale, His Highness the Crown Prince laid out cement and once again eliminated two groups of soldiers.
He has no specific experience and cannot see the detailed situation, but Han Qi understands very well...His Royal Highness is holding back his ultimate move again, otherwise he would not be able to use so many soldiers.
