Chapter 335: The buttocks of the C scroll are not sit

  Chapter 335 Scroll C The buttocks are not sitting crookedly

   "Not delivered yet?" Emperor Yonglong waited so urgently for a rare time, tapping his fingers lightly on the imperial case in the East Study Room.

  The two goldfishes in the sauce-colored glazed bowl next to them swayed leisurely and swayed back and forth. In the past, they could attract his attention and let him have a rest, but today they lost interest.

  " Back to Your Majesty, someone has already been arranged to pick it up. The Imperial Academy said that it might take a little later because there are too many copies printed, so it will be delivered as soon as it comes out." The servant said softly.

   "Well, did they say how many copies they want to print this time?" Zhang Shen's facial expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously picked up the "Internal Reference" with the code number 001.

  The serial number actually uses two kinds of characters, one is naturally zero and one, and the other is actually 001. At that time, Emperor Yonglong was very surprised and didn't know what this symbol meant.

  After inquiring, I found out that this should be from Tianzhu and Tianfang, which is specially used for counting. Later, Emperor Yonglong specially asked his servant to go to the Imperial Academy to ask Feng Ziying about this situation, and finally brought back a handwritten pamphlet.

   Zhang Shen is naturally not very interested in learning arithmetic, and he doesn't have that much energy to learn it, but the things in the handwritten booklet still interest him.

  In his opinion, this seems to be able to achieve some relatively simple calculations more easily and easily.

As an emperor, he also needs to deal with some numbers, such as population, wealth income, disaster relief expenses, water conservancy road consumption, military expenditure, and even the income and expenditure of the internal treasury. It is necessary to compare with previous years and balance other items. So this counting method seems to be really useful.

   "It is said that about 100 copies may be printed." The servant obviously made preparations in advance. If the emperor asks a question but fails to answer, maybe you won't have the chance next time.

   "Oh? Doubled in size?" Emperor Yonglong was surprised in a low voice.

"However, I heard from the Imperial Academy that it may not be expanded much. They mean that they will be controlled above the fourth-rank officials in Beijing for the time being. We will look at it in the next step, but they may also give some scholars in Beijing famous Confucianism." The meticulous and thoughtful answer finally made Emperor Yonglong take another look at him, "Well, it's almost there."

  There are naturally many fourth-rank officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty, far more than a hundred, but there are almost as many in Beijing, and some idle positions may not necessarily require reading these.

  As for the mention of famous scholar scholars, it generally refers to those famous scholar scholars who have held the fourth rank or above but are temporarily out of the field, such as Guan Yingzhen and Wang Yongguang.

It is said that the first copy of "Internal Reference" caused a sensation among the officials. Xiao Daheng was furious and smashed a lot of things. Shen Yiguan was even more exaggerated. , Could it be said that Da Zhou's first assistant is so fragile?

  Emperor Yonglong read those three articles several times. There must be some new ideas, but it’s hard to say how exciting they are.

  The only thing that might be a little exaggerated is the worry about the military situation in the northwest, that is, the chaos in Ningxia Town, but Emperor Yonglong didn't take it seriously.

The bad situation of Ningxia Town and Gansu Town has not been a year or two, and even the guarding general of Ningxia Town was hand-picked by his father. It is said that even Feng Tang had to bow his head to Wang Ziteng in order to seek the guarding general of Yulin Town .

The northwest is not a quiet place, but the Tatars have passed away long ago. They can bring trouble to Dazhou, but they are not fatal, at least not in the three sides and four towns, but the Mongolian left wing side?

  Thinking of this, Emperor Yonglong's face became a little colder, and he tried his best not to think about some things, but he still couldn't bear it in his heart.

  I am the emperor, but why is my decision-making power not as good as that of a martial artist? Of course, he also knew that behind these warriors was the father.

It's okay if it's the father, Zhang Shen can accept it, but if this power and resources are to be handed over to someone other than himself, then he can't accept it. Don't be confused.

  Was thinking about it, there was the sound of trotting footsteps outside the door, and a little servant who was sweating profusely came in with something in his hand.

   "Your Majesty, here we come."

  The close servant took the book and nodded, "Your Majesty."

  Emperor Yonglong looked at it without raising his head.

  As soon as he got it, he knew that it was much thicker, at least half more than the previous one.

   Looking at the catalog, Emperor Yonglong was attracted by the title.

In addition to the three columns last time, two new columns, "Wind Constitution Warning" and "Extraterritorial Tales", were added, and one of these two articles was written anonymously, but Emperor Yonglong knew at a glance that this should be It was written by the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Yang He is most likely, one was written by Feng Ziying.

   These two are considered to be the figures that Emperor Yonglong is very concerned about.

   Abandoning the first three articles, Emperor Yonglong first read Yang He's "Analysis of the Disadvantages of Salt Affairs in Two Zhejiang Provinces"

What interested Emperor Yonglong was that Yang He didn't write too many specific details of the investigation and supervision of the case, but more from the causes and consequences of the involvement of several officials involved in the case and why the top and bottom found out and how to cover up each other's supervision issues, um. , which is tracing the source.

There are also some insights and suggestions of Yang He in the process of handling the case, many of which cannot be written in official court documents and memorials, and even include some private discussions, which also involve officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The selection and the salt affairs system of the Ministry of Households, and even the morality and education of officials from the Ministry of Rites are very interesting.

   It took Emperor Yonglong half an hour to read this article twice.

This kind of article, which is completely different from the memorial official document, is very interesting to read. It is not as complicated as the memorial, and it also lacks a lot of formalities. It is not as arbitrary as ordinary articles, but focuses on this one. In terms of affairs, there are things to talk about, rich in content but clear in order, allowing people to find things of interest at once.

In the last paragraph, he even analyzed the final psychological monologue of two of the offending officials. There are not many words, but the words are thrilling. Emperor Yonglong felt that this article was worth reading for the prefects, prefects, and counties of Dazhou. .

  With a mentality of unfinished business, Emperor Yonglong finally read the last column "Strange Tales from Outside Territories", written by Feng Ziying.

  Emperor Yonglong knew that this guy had average literary talent, but he had something to say, but after reading this article, he really felt what it means to be shallow in literature and science, but with something to say.

  The article is very short, and it is described with some experience, but it can make many people feel excited.

The gold mines, silver mines, and copper mines on Luzon Island, as well as the spices and the people of the Great Zhou who came out of the sea, Emperor Yonglong was a little complicated in his heart, and the Frangji people occupied such a place with only a few hundred people. The places equivalent to Fujian and even Southern Zhili have seized countless wealth, which is even more difficult for Emperor Yonglong to accept. Now even the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty who have never returned from the sea surrender to the feet of these Xiyi people and contribute wealth, which makes it even more difficult. Emperor Yonglong couldn't sit still.

Emperor Yonglong did not have the mentality of his father, who does not occupy land and does not confiscate a state. He himself was facing the attack from the Jurchens and Tatars in the north and could not hold on due to lack of money and food. If there was someone who could provide Gold, silver, copper, and food don't need to cost a lot of opportunities, so he is certainly willing to take risks.

   Even mine supervisors and tax supervisors dare to do things that offend countless people, as long as they can get back the money to fill the needs of the north and nine sides, let alone these?

  Emperor Yonglong certainly knew who was behind this article. Feng Ziying was a student who was only fifteen years old. How could he know so much about Luzon overseas?

   But this is not important. Feng Ziying's willingness to write such an article represents a lot, and it is also in line with his own appetite, which is enough.

For Emperor Yonglong, he is willing to try anything that can bring money, and he can even bear certain risks, because he firmly believes that no risk comes from the invasion of the Tatars and Jurchens and the risk of army rebellion. , just like what he deeply felt now, the troops of Jingying, Xuanda, and Jiliao, the five towns, were all under the control of his father, so no matter what he could do, he could only bear it.

A Luzon can't represent anything, but Feng Ziying summed up one point in the final conclusion, if you dare not find and try new income, then you are doomed to be trapped in the existing limited income, and it will be difficult for Dazhou to get rid of this kind of income. A tight situation.

Emperor Yonglong felt that these words expressed his heart, without money and food, it is difficult to support all of this, and now it seems that all this has reached the extreme in Da Zhou, he feels that his dreams every night are full of money and food, Without money and food, the army from the Nine Sides and the Tatar Jurchens could roar in at any time, no matter what it was, he couldn't accept it.

  Compared to that, Xiao Daheng’s apology should have some value, and the suggestion and warning about reforming the Southwest to return to the local people brought Yonglong more sighs, why didn’t he want to? Why doesn't he know that there are hidden dangers in the southwest as well, but the food has to be eaten one bite at a time, how can these things be done all at once?

"A Preliminary Exploration of the People's Livelihood" focuses on the problems brought about by the heavy taxes in several prefectures in Nanzhili. Emperor Yonglong read it patiently, or the same sentence, these are all problems, he knows, but there is no way, Don't you raise taxes in your southern Zhili prefectures, and go to Shaanxi and Beizhi to increase taxes? Do you really want another larger rebellion or a civil uprising?

  Emperor Yonglong sneered, and looked at the signatures. The top three Jinshi Cai Maode and Guanzhenghubu, no need to ask, knew that they should be Jiangnan scholars, and their buttocks were not crooked.
