Chapter 997

"Yes, of course. If there are villains, there are good people." Xu Youzhen then said: "Similarly, some people take everything for granted and others know how to be grateful. For example, those who think that everything they get is given by the emperor will be grateful. They are like officials promoted by the emperor, and like Duke Jin and others who are lucky to serve you every day. We all know that everything is given by the emperor If the emperor is gone one day, everything we have will be gone. For this reason, we are willing to give everything to you. No matter what decision you make, we will unconditionally support and do it. Because in a sense, when we help the emperor, we are thinking about our own future. "

This time, the first reaction was Jin Ying standing next to Zhu Qiyu.

As eunuchs, because of their own limitations, they can only rely on and must rely on the emperor. As long as they are recognized by the emperor, their future will be easy and smooth. For example, they are a group of moths parasitic on the main body. If they want to live comfortably, they need the main body to be strong enough.

It is precisely because of these reasons that when Xu Youzhen said this, Jin Ying felt the same and showed gratitude. This is tantamount to Xu Youzhen reminding the emperor that he is a trustworthy person. Of course, he should make good friends with ministers who are willing to speak for him.

Zhu Qiyu doesn't feel the same way as Jin Ying, but he knows that there is some truth in this statement. Just like it is often said in historical books that once the emperor is a courtier, there is often a cooperative relationship between courtiers and the emperor. Of course, there will be non cooperative ones if there is cooperation. For example, some people are good at accidents and are good at compiling their own network, no matter what happens above Such a person is the most terrible and hateful, because he can't really give his heart to any master.

While Zhu Qiyu was still considering the profound meaning of this remark, Jin Ying on one side knew that the time for his first knife had come, so he knelt down in the tunnel: "emperor, Xu Shangshu's words are the words of the heart. There are many people in the imperial court who are not determined, and those people are untrustworthy."

Jin Ying's words completely relieved Zhu Qiyu of his worries and figured out everything. When he looked at Xu Youzhen, he sighed with a look, "Xu Aiqing is really my humerus, and what he said hit the key of the imperial court."

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it." Xu Youzhen said repeatedly.

"In Xu Aiqing's opinion, this bank must be in my hands? If so, who can save money?" Zhu Qiyu asked the biggest question in his heart, which was also what he was most worried about.

Not only Zhu Qiyu, but Jin Ying, who was kneeling on the ground, also looked up at Xu Youzhen. In his opinion, there are many diehards in the imperial court and many people who think of themselves. If the bank is owned by the emperor, they will want to find trouble in it. Not only can they not deposit the bank, but they are afraid to tell others not to deposit the bank. In that way, they will If so, isn't a bank without silver meaningless?

Xu Youzhen, who had been prepared for this for a long time, kept his face unchanged and his voice was still sonorous and powerful. "Emperor, this is not difficult to solve. As Chen said just now, the emperor always thinks of his ministers, but how many ministers are sincere for the emperor? I think the establishment of this bank can play the best exploratory role."

"How to test?" Zhu Qiyu asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty, my humble opinion, in the future, the salaries of the ministers can be claimed by the bank. In order to support the bank, that is, to support the money and food of the northern Ming Dynasty, all ministers have to hand over 50% of their salaries to the bank every month for deposit. Once the northern Ming Dynasty unifies the world, all the deposited silver can be taken out. In this way, it will not be in the bank More money and silver is also related to their own interests, so they don't have to do their best when they encounter things. This is true not only for ministers, but also for businessmen who are engaged in business in the northern Ming Dynasty. The amount of money they deposit for any large transaction can also be called a deposit to prevent them from doing anything that hurts the interests of the northern Ming Dynasty. Once they are found, the deposit will be confiscated. In this way, it is the same In order to get their own silver back, they must also fully cooperate with all the actions of the emperor. At that time, people all over the world will be united. Why can't they do it?

In her generous words, Xu Youzhen finally touched a pain point of Zhu Qiyu and said: "in my opinion, the bank can be named Zhujia bank, which will be passed down from generation to generation. During the introduction, the wise actions of the emperor will be passed down to future generations and will be glorious forever."

"Zhu's Bank will be handed down to future generations and will be glorious forever..." Zhu Qiyu read silently in his heart, then raised his right fist, then suddenly fell down and shouted, "well, Xu Aiqing's words are very much in line with my wishes. It is also a good policy to stabilize the country. Great talent, great talent."

"Yes, Xu Shangshu is so considerate of the emperor that he should be rewarded." Jin Ying began to mend his sword. He had a feeling that once the emperor approved the establishment of the Zhu Bank, it was likely that the job would eventually fall on him, and his power would increase greatly. All these were suggestions put forward by Xu Youzhen. He had to stand up and say something for the other party at this moment.

As soon as Jin Ying's praise came out, Zhu Qiyu also felt that he deserved it. "Well, well, Xu Aiqing really introduced me as a good minister. That is, he immediately issued an order to appoint Xu Aiqing as the young Fu of the crown prince, the grand bachelor and the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment."

This is the direct seal from the first and second grade to the first grade official. When talking about these suggestions in Shicheng, Yang Chendong once asserted that Xu Youzhen would be promoted. He didn't expect to have the results so soon. As expected, he was promoted one level. After the Ming Dynasty divided the north and the south, there was no cabinet for a long time. The civil service reached the top, that is, the second grade. Xu Youzhen stood out and became below one person and above ten thousand people. At present, he knelt down to thank you.

"Ha ha, Xu Aiqing, please get up. The suggestion just now is very good. But I think the bank only withholds 30% of the minister's salary. They also work for me, and I have to think more about them." Zhu Qiyu said in a good mood.

"The emperor sympathizes with his ministers. It should be the blessing of his ministers. Here, on behalf of all his ministers, he thanks the emperor." Xu Youzhen kneels down again, looking convinced.

Zhu Qiyu burst into a hearty laugh. Then the three decided the matter of Zhu's bank together. Finally, Zhu Qiyu really handed it over to Jin Ying, and made it clear that if any minister made trouble because of this matter, if he didn't cooperate, he would find a reason to catch it. This is clearly not to support their great cause. They even have to make irresponsible remarks about deducting some money, and point to their willingness to fight for their lives at the critical time?

So it was settled. Xu Youzhen successfully completed the task assigned to him by Yang Chendong, and pushed the regime of Beiming Dynasty to the edge of the cliff.

Generally speaking, the salaries of officials in the Ming Dynasty were not high, especially in the Taizu period of the Ming Dynasty. Even after the rule of benevolence, although the salary has been improved to a certain extent, the monthly combination is only 30%. Now all these 30% have been deducted by Zhu Qiyu, that is to say, it will be difficult for ordinary officials to have any savings. This involves their own problems. Naturally, many people will stand up and react, can't be solved, and have to press it hard by means of coercion, which will only attract greater resistance and inner dissatisfaction.

Once the people are dissatisfied, the behemoth of Beiming is not far away from the moment of collapse. This is Yang Chendong's trick to solve the Daming problem by means of "peace". Now, Zhu Qiyu has been recruited.

Maybe it will take some time, or a long time to take effect. But the first step is to go out after all, isn't it?

Xu Youzhen left and did not return to the mansion. Instead, she went directly to the Yangjia bank in the capital, which explained the meaning of the emperor of the northern Ming Dynasty. Soon, the site selection of Zhu's Bank and the establishment of corresponding equipment were on the right track. The next thing to consider is to issue an imperial edict to make Yang Chendong king of Wunan.

......

On the grassland, all reports from Xu Youzhen came from the Security Bureau. Yang Chendong was overjoyed and the event was settled. The next step is to smooth out the grassland.

The time has come to October 1455. Sooner or later, the weather began to cool obviously, and the grassland after the war was about to enter a relatively peaceful period of development.

Hundreds of thousands of people sent by chixian City successively arrived at Shajing city and Jingzhou City, which greatly increased the popularity of the city. At the same time, the expansion of the city also accelerated with the arrival of hundreds of thousands of people.

In this way, there are Mobei city in the northwest, Shajing city and Jingzhou City in the south. Shicheng as the center will be safer. They can also expand the scale again on the basis of the original cultivated land. This time, Yang Chendong asked to open at least one million hectares of good land to achieve self-sufficiency. At the same time, they can also support the third division of the land to the North belia grassland.

Building a city not only means possession and existence, but also how to develop here and let the people live a richer life is Yang Chendong's ultimate goal. He firmly believes that as long as people's life is better, a country will become more stable and powerful. In order to protect their hard won fruits of victory, more people will be willing to do more things for this force or country.
