Zhu Gaochi looked at Jin Zhong and others leaving, frowned slightly, waved, called the guards not far away, and ordered: "Go and investigate why Jin Zhong appeared here."
Will Zhu Gaoxu buy farmland?
If Jin Zhong came to rob farmland, Zhu Gaochi could understand.
Buy with money?
Zhu Gaochi didn't believe it at all. He knew his brother's character very well.
It is his body that is fat, and his legs and feet that are disabled, but Zhu Gaochi is not stupid at all. Behind his rich face, there is wisdom and agility hidden.
The guards took the order and left. Zhu Gaochi bent down and looked at the wheat ears in the field. Although it was only mid-March, it showed that the wheat seedlings were growing well. If they were bought, a good harvest would not be a problem.
When the imperial court sells farmland, it sells this year's wheat seedlings together.
Although this increases the purchase cost for merchants, it also makes it convenient for merchants. The fat and thin status of all farmland can be seen at a glance. There is no need to worry about it. You only need to discuss the amount of money with the guard sergeant, and then go to the Agricultural Tax Department together to wait for approval. After the approval is passed, the delivery Money and taxes, land deeds signed.
Zhu Gaochi was very supportive of commercial sales of farmland, which not only helped to eliminate the weak and retain the strong, strengthen the army, but also helped to revitalize farmland and increase grain production.
Since this move is good for the court, good for the businessmen, and good for the soldiers, there is no reason not to let the Yan Palace reap some benefits.
The Yan Palace wants all the 56,000 acres of farmland in Baiyangkou Guard Station.
Zhu Gaochi walked out of the field, sat on the ridge, looked at the returning guards, glanced at the sergeant behind the guards, and asked, "How is it?"
"Your Majesty, something is a little unusual." The guard hesitated for a moment, then said something, then stepped aside and said to Wang Eryue: "This man is the eldest son of King Yan, so I am still not polite."
"The villain king pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince in February."
Wang Eryue knelt down quickly.
Zhu Gaochi looked at Wang Eryue and said in a deep voice, "Go ahead."
Wang Eryue did not dare to get up, so he took out the treasure banknotes, lowered his head and said: "That Mr. Jin said that the imperial court was recruiting new army secret guards, and gave the villain ten guan banknotes..."
"New army secret guards?"
Zhu Gaochi frowned and looked at the guard.
The guard leaned back and said, "Your Majesty, according to the current news, Jin Zhong brought people to Baiyangkou not to purchase farmland, but to recruit people in the name of the new army."
Zhu Gaochi's face suddenly turned cold.
Recruiting people?
Or in the name of the New Army?
Zhu Gaoxu, even if you want to die, there is no need to drag everyone in the Yan Palace to be buried with you!
Once this matter comes to the attention of the imperial court, the Ping'an army can completely defeat the Yan Palace.
No one will say a word for you!
Recruiting warriors and training private armed forces is a grave sin that can wipe out entire families!
"Go and call Jin Zhong!"
Zhu Gaochi stood up with a cold expression on his face.
When Jin Zhong saw the kneeling Wang Eryue, he already understood that the matter had been revealed. He walked a few steps and knelt in front of Zhu Gaochi, crying and shouting: "Your Majesty, I, Jin Zhong, have been held hostage. There is also Gaoyang County in this team." The king's guards, if I don't obey, they will not only kill me, but also my whole family..."
Zhu Gaochi took a look, and sure enough, four of them were Zhu Gaoxu's guards.
The four people came out, kneeling on the ground and shivering, not daring to speak.
"How many people did you recruit?"
Zhu Gaochi asked sharply.
Jin Zhong said uneasily: "Yes, there are seventy-six people."
Zhu Gaochi looked sad and said: "This Baiyangkou Station only has more than 1,100 soldiers, but you have recruited so many. You are quite capable."
Jin Zhong trembled all over and kowtowed quickly: "Your Majesty, spare your life!"
Zhu Gaochi looked at Jin Zhong coldly, his flash of murderous intent was finally covered by the kindness in his heart. He turned his eyes to the endless Qingtian and said in a deep voice: "Each person will leave five taels of silver and will not leave Baiyangkou until death. Yan The palace will send your family here so you can take care of yourself."
Jin Zhong's face was full of pain, he kowtowed heavily and shouted: "Thank you for not killing me, Your Majesty!"
I can’t go back to Beiping Mansion!
In the years to come, I will be like a prisoner, forever imprisoned in this white sheep's mouth.
Oh, that’s fine too.
There is no need to worry about Zhu Gaoxu's coercion, or being attacked by the imperial army in the future, and then in a certain battle, his head will be hung on the flagpole.
Calculating destiny and measuring human life, in the end, they fooled themselves.
Everything is unpredictable.
Zhu Yunwen, who was in the capital, could not hear Jin Zhong's sigh, and his ears were filled with the buzzing sounds of ministers.
Although Beiping Prefecture obtained permission from the cabinet, internal affairs and the emperor to sell farmland, it did not obtain the consent of all officials.
Yes, the officials have no decision-making power in this matter, but it does not mean that they have no right to impeach, no right to speak, no right to protest.
Twenty-six people including Yin Changlong and Huang Kai, the censors of the Ministry of War, Pan Xing, a doctor in the Ministry of War, Shi Pu, a member of the Ministry of War, Huang Guan, a minister in the Ministry of Rites, and Qiu Xiang, a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs, all wrote letters to impeach the merchants.
Each one of them stood on the moral high ground, accusing merchants of selling farmland, talking about the harm of abolishing the guard system, and threatening that if the emperor did not stop the merchants of Beiping Prefecture from selling farmland, all the guards in the Ming Dynasty would fall apart, and the country would be in chaos. No country.
Zhu Yunwen didn't understand why the salivary system of the ancients was so developed. He could talk for three or four hours in a row and still be eloquent and salivate. It was obviously not scientific.
Correct
Wait until the sun rises to three poles, then clock in and get off work.
Zhu Yunwen adopted a strategy to deal with officials who opposed the commercial sale of farmland:
drag.
After the Peiping government has sold out all the fields, they will collect the money and come up with the data, and then they can argue with these ministers.
After dealing with officials a lot, Zhu Yunwen gradually discovered that almost all officials have a common characteristic, that is:
Emotional.
When people die in an earthquake, they will mourn, and then write poems and songs to express their feelings.
If a corrupt official is found in their yamen, they will be angry and demand severe punishment from the emperor. After all, this guy lives alone and is unpopular.
When they get their salary, they will be excited. Then they will take the newly received money and go to the flower house to take care of the tertiary industry.
to be honest.
These people look at problems and things without rational analysis and cognition, and only speak and do things based on feelings and feelings.
Regarding the commercial sale of farmland, the officials felt that it was not good to do so, that it was wrong, and that it would be harmful. Then, they lit a small candle at night, wrote a three-thousand-word memorial, and handed it over the next morning.
If the emperor doesn't approve or ignores it, that doesn't matter.
You can hide from the first grade of junior high school, but you can't hide from the fifteenth grade. The emperor still has to go to court for two days every month. If you tell it to your face, you can't escape.
They have no data awareness, lack enough rationality, and have too much subjectivity and emotion. As a result, their views may seem correct, but if you investigate carefully, you will find that they are not the same thing at all.
Countless unjust, false and wrongful convictions, random killings, impeachments and impeachments are all based on emotions.
Anything that is intentional or unfounded is too low-level. When people speak, they directly ignore the intentional and unfounded. They skip guessing and tell you for sure:
This is not right!
This person deserves to be killed!
This battle must not be fought without success.
After all, you can't blame them. It's normal to be emotional because of your liberal arts background.
The key is that if Ming Dynasty wants to be strong, it cannot be all liberal arts officials.
As for those powerful arithmetic masters, I am ashamed to say that they are not private businessmen, and there are only a few people in the household department...
Shabby.
Zhu Yunwen returned to Wuying Hall, washed his face, and prepared to continue writing "Elementary Mathematics". If he did not innovate arithmetic, did not introduce deductive logic, and simply relied on a group of emotional people, what kind of prosperity would he have?
