Chapter 467: Night market will be developed
"Haha..." Feng Quji laughed, "I really didn't ask this question at that time. We were asking about the chaos in the night market.
The gentleman is just telling everyone that since the night market can make so much money for the court, then it should not matter if the court spends a little money to recruit more officials. "
"Increase manpower?" Gan Luo was surprised. Why hadn't he thought of such a simple thing?
Not only Gan Luo didn't think about it, but Ying Zheng and others didn't think about it. For them, this was a trivial matter and not qualified for them to manage.
"Not only to increase manpower, but also to recruit people from all walks of life in the city as official servants."
"Why?" Gan Luo asked, "If these groups of three religions and nine streams enter the official ranks, won't they bring other official servants into trouble?"
"Then it depends on whether anyone among the officials can restrain them. But that's not the point. The point is to set the rules.
Officials belong to the lowest level of the government, but whether it is the imperial court or local officials, they basically ignore them and allow them to develop.
This is not a good thing for the court or local officials. "Feng Quji said.
Gan Luo frowned slightly and said, "Why do you say that? It has been like this from ancient times to the present. Why did it become a bad thing when it came to Sir's mouth?"
Feng Quji and others on the side looked at each other and smiled. They thought so at the time and had no idea about it.
Gan Luo looked at their smiles and thought they were laughing at him, and felt a trace of anger in his heart.
"Prime Minister Feng, did I say something wrong?"
Feng Quji shook his head and said, "You're right, we thought so too at the time. But do you know what the teacher said?"
"What did you say?" Gan Luo asked.
"At that time, my husband told us that the bottom class is treating the bottom class, and the officials at the bottom class are good to the people, which can better reflect the benevolent government of the court.
However, both the imperial court and local officials regarded official servants as having a lowly duty and no status. "Feng Quji said.
"Whatever identity they need, it is their blessing to be used by the court." Gan Luo said disdainfully.
Feng Quji sighed and said, "Yes, it's not just you who thinks so, everyone around the world thinks so.
But the husband doesn't think so. He thinks that the government can have official servants, but they can only protect the yamen and cannot do some criminal affairs to deal with the people.
In simple terms, what sir means is to divide the place into four parts. One is in charge of the army. One is in charge of political affairs, one is in charge of reviewing cases, and the other is in charge of public security.
Those who manage the army are called generals, those who manage political affairs are called county magistrates, those who hear cases are called judges, and those who manage public security are called policemen. "
"The imperial court only managed local political affairs and military affairs separately. A county magistrate had to do many things, including trial cases and local security management.
Wouldn't it be better to do this? The court does not need to add more manpower. Gan Luo said.
"So we haven't spoken out about your proposal, but as long as Da Qin becomes prosperous and strong in the future and there are sufficient talents, what you said will definitely happen.
As long as the power of the county magistrate is split, the people can live a better life, and the court can achieve eternal prosperity.
To put it bluntly, Da Qin is the foundation of China, and Sir is the future of China. After Da Qin lays a more solid foundation, it will be able to present the future of China.
Everything your Majesty is doing now is to allow Great Qin to present a vision of the future.
This Zhaojiacun is Daqin's pilot project. So far, everything is going very well. The services here have exceeded His Majesty's and our expectations.
Have you noticed that today’s Xianyang City is very much like Zhaojia Village, with cement roads, bicycles, four treasures of the study, and salt-making workshops? Maybe you have been pretending to be crazy, but you may not know that Xianyang City is actually preparing for a night market. However, for safety reasons, the night market was arranged outside the city.
The main reason for doing this is still worried that the remnants of the Six Kingdoms will sneak into the palace in the night market and do harm to His Majesty. "Feng Quji said.
Gan Luo said: "That's it. No wonder so many houses were built outside the city. The imperial court sold these houses. It is estimated that they can make a lot of money."
"Sell it?" Feng Quji looked at Gan Luo like a fool, "Do you think it's more cost-effective to earn more by selling it, or by collecting rent every month?"
Gan Luo was startled and said, "Isn't the imperial court competing for benefits with the people by doing this? How will the imperial court's face be affected if we tell you this?"
Feng Quji smiled and said: "It's even simpler. Just tell the people that this is just a pilot project. In the future, everything outside the city can be handled by the imperial merchants, which is what Mr. Wang calls state-owned enterprises."
Gan Luo couldn't help but give Feng Quji a thumbs up and said: "I admire it, I really admire it. In this way, the court not only collects taxes, but also rents. I'm afraid there are other items that can be collected. This city The night market outside is a good way to make money.
There's just one thing I'm very curious about: why doesn't everyone win such a good project? I'm afraid His Majesty will definitely let it go. "
Feng Quji and others laughed and said nothing, you said you made money, why should I give it to you? His Majesty the First Emperor is so easy to talk to.
What's more, do they have a big enough reputation to open a night market? Can it be opened?
Only by telling everyone that everything outside the city belongs to the First Emperor will the people be willing and confident to rent those houses to open shops in the night market.
Zhang Han said: "It's getting late, let's go to the bar."
"Okay, I haven't seen a bar yet, so I don't know how to relieve stress." Li Si said with a smile.
"Decompressing is a good place to relieve stress, but I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it." Zhang Han said with a smile.
Meng Yi nodded and said, "That's true. If you can't let go, the bar will only become the dirty place you think it is."
Feng Quji and Li Si immediately thought of a brothel. Could this bar be a brothel?
At the same time, a fire appeared in their hearts. After arriving in the village, they became like eunuchs, and their lives lost a little fun.
Now that they heard that there was a bar they needed, their eyes lit up.
"Come on, hurry up. General Zhang, take us there quickly." Li Si said impatiently.
Feng Quji was a little older and not as restless as Li Si. He said slowly: "General Zhang, you underestimate us. Please lead the way."
Zhang Han was stunned by their enthusiasm, but he quickly reacted and made a gesture of invitation with a smile.
"There is one over here."
After Gan Luo saw everyone leaving, a look of disdain appeared on his lips, and then he followed them.
"Dong dong dong..."
After everyone arrived at the bar, they heard the noise.
Li Si frowned slightly and said, "General Zhang, why is it so noisy inside?"
"This is the specialty of the bar. Three adults, let's go in." Zhang Han said with a smile.
