"very good!"
The empress closed the memorial with one hand, raised her eyes and looked at Old Man Xia, "Pass the news on, and record the credit afterward!"
Since the beginning of the war, the empress has not left the Records Department.
After the first month of the year, the Documents Department was fully activated, ordinary government affairs were decentralized to six departments, and nearly 70% of the Wu Dynasty's power was poured into the northern and southern fronts.
In the past eight months, it has been too difficult for the Wu Dynasty, which had weak financial and physical reserves. It was really too difficult...
Old Man Xia smiled and said, "This victory is due to Nian Run and Landi. The equation that came up with the strategy can be ranked among the top ten. I think we can definitely increase the number of Jinshi!"
Being a Jinshi is a good starting point for becoming an official in various countries. For example, in the Song Dynasty, being born as a Jinshi could avoid death, in the Ming Dynasty, only those who were Jinshi could move up to the fifth rank, and only those who were Jinshi in the Hanlin Academy could enter the cabinet.
The civilian officialdom of the Wu Dynasty also had corresponding requirements, but don't forget that the Wu Dynasty was based on military merit, and military merit was everything.
The civil servants of the Song Dynasty were extremely accomplished and could be directly awarded the highest military positions and titles.
Similarly, in the Wu Dynasty, if military merit reached the standard, generals could be directly awarded titles such as academic degrees and bachelor's degrees.
It seems to be the opposite, but the literary status of the Wu Dynasty is not very high. It is just that the Song and Ming Dynasties were pragmatic, while the Wu Dynasty was pragmatic. The level of Jinshi in the Wu Dynasty was still on the passing line among the six major dynasties, unlike the self-deception of the Liao Dynasty. It is used to settle the feudal lords, and the gentry's literary position is completely different.
"Okay, the first list is slightly higher, the third list is slightly lower, I think the second list is the best!"
The three rankings of Jinshi are the same in all countries. The difference is in the Wu Dynasty. The Song Dynasty is not limited to one examination for life. If officials who have obtained Jinshi status are not satisfied with their rankings, they can take the examination again and again to constantly refresh their rankings.
Next, let’s make a second list for the equation. In the future, no matter how we think about the equation, whether we can refer to it or not, we will have a basis. In fact, if we grant civil servants official positions, we have solved the problem. Nowadays, the people are not the people, the army is not the army, the officials are not the officials, and the nobles are not the nobles. embarrassing situation.
Hearing this, Old Man Xia nodded, "Okay, after leading the Jurchen to submit the letter of surrender, when the reward is successful, all the credits can be settled first, and he will receive the title of concubine for the time being!"
The military merit system comes with a complete set of military merit titles.
The titles of the Wu Dynasty were based on the military merit titles of the Qin and Han dynasties, and combined the current five levels of lords in Kyushu, leaving behind the viscounts and barons among the five lords. They were divided into eleven levels from top to bottom.
A first-class civil servant, who has retired from the army after nine years, or has actual military merit, is granted the privilege of being exempted from paying taxes after seeing an official.
The second level is built on top, and the second level can be awarded actual military merits. Yongye will be given thirty acres of land, and Yongye will inherit the privileges for three generations.
As we all know, the Yongye fields rewarded by the Wu Dynasty are tax-free. When civilians retire from the army, as long as they get the military title of superiors, they will not only have no worries, but the three generations will also enjoy blessings. As long as the family does not encounter big turmoil and get involved in some bad things. In the incident, he can completely transform into the Wu family and completely change his family status from then on. This is also the result that most of the soldiers dream of.
After Shangzao, there are three levels of official rank, the fourth level of concubine, the fifth level is longer, and the sixth level of dashangzao. Although they are not lords, those who can obtain this fourth-level military merit title are all the mainstays of the Wu Dynasty's army, and they can live without death. It keeps the family prosperous for decades and protects the family for many generations after death.
After that, there are four levels: Bo, Marquis, Duke, and King. Even if they are not hereditary, they cannot escape the fate of being killed in three generations. But Lord is a title after all, which is of great significance.
"Concubine, slightly taller!"
The concubine chief, under the subdivision, is divided into left and right, and the treatment is equal. The only difference is the military merit. But the concubine chief is already very impressive in the local military merits. With the title, he can join the county government as a county captain, and the army as a general.
This is just a basic official position, and it is not difficult to move up.
"Although Fang Fang lacks actual military exploits, his strategy and the future are what we value. If the old minister were not worried about undermining the success of others, with the achievements he has made now, no one can stop him. His Majesty's concern now is just that he is afraid of being It was discovered that Fang Fang was in fear of his life, but gold is gold and cannot be hidden. The futures market incident has brought Fang Fang to the forefront and is known to everyone. Not surprisingly, his reputation is already among the intelligence agencies of various countries."
Women are too emotional, and the empress's current thoughts are somewhat self-deceiving.
The name of the equation has spread throughout the business circles of the Wu Dynasty, and businessmen coming and going are constantly talking about it.
"Instead of hiding it and making people suspicious, it is better to use the title of concubine and military merit to solidify his reputation as a business genius, show to the outside world our attitude of recruiting talents in an eclectic way, and focus on developing the future of business, thus covering up the real need to conceal Something!" Old Man Xia said quickly.
Why hide the equation?
Isn't it just because you are afraid of letting others know that a top counselor has appeared within the Wu Dynasty?
In order to cover up the causes behind the strategic changes of the Wu Dynasty's major policies, work-for-relief, and strategic changes, the Documents Department has thrown out countless fogs, attributed the credit to the three men and the prince, and covered up the equation.
But to be honest, I really can’t hide this for long.
Everyone who should know knows how it happened, and sooner or later those who shouldn't know will also know, it's just a matter of time.
Hearing this, the empress nodded, "It's my fault. Regarding the news about the equation, I will ask the Documents Department to reduce its activities and leave it to him to handle the details!"
Concern leads to chaos!
The merits of the futures market should be heavily rewarded for the financially strapped Wu Dynasty. It is a little taller to give the common people a height, but the meaning is different. On the contrary, it is too tight, which makes people feel wrong.
"I will take care of this matter. Now..." After saying what the empress wanted to hear, Old Man Xia took out a ledger and said, "...based on multiple considerations, I think we should open the treasury!"
There was no money, and the time was delayed until August. The two treasuries of the Wu Dynasty were completely out of money. The practice of demolishing the east wall to pay for the west wall could no longer squeeze out any money.
The proposal to open the packaging library has been the consensus of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. As the Minister of Household Affairs, Old Man Xia had to open it even if he didn't want to.
"open it!"
The empress waved her hand feebly. The situation developed much faster than expected. The budget before Lao Pu left in June had been completely pushed back in August.
Good news continues all over the country, but there is no money to turn back for the time being. There will definitely be no money this year. It will take time to clean up the battlefield in the North. At the same time, the army has to go south to Hexi, and money will be spent everywhere. But this Where does the money come from?
"We will take five million vehicles first. After all the money is spent, taxes on food, salt water and other taxes will almost come in, which will be enough for us to last until next year!"
Whoever gets the money for the packaging library when taking office must make up for it before leaving office.
It’s really just a temporary pleasure to spend money to make up for the crematorium. If possible, Old Man Xia really doesn’t want to open a treasury. He also wants to retire and provide for himself, but he can’t hold back Nian Run. Big Sima, all of them are masters who can spend money. Don't think about this old man.
