Chapter 556.

Zhu Di at this time also just a cold snort, looking at these weak-minded Hanlin, to this point, in fact, the teeth cold has been talked about.

After all, Zhu Di is not the original Zhu Yunzhu, not to these so-called readers from the Hanlin have too high expectations, just see these people’s scandal, the end can not help but have a few points of anger.

Naturally, the most angry Zhu Di, in fact, not only in this, but in the area of a Jiangxi Buzhengji, hidden households are rampant to such a point, if even the household Qimin can not be true, then the entire foundation of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, but empty talk.

The fundamentals of mastering the household register lie in the taxes and corv茅e, and even include the status of the fields and acres mastered against the household register, not to mention, the recruitment of the soldiers.

That is to say, all the court’s decrees, in essence, in fact, is based on the situation of the household to develop, and once even this foundation is not deep, then the so-called governance is simply empty talk.

Hidden households, do not have to accept any obligations, and do not need to pay taxes, it is inevitable, these obligations and taxes, they will be imposed on the court in the possession of the household registration of the head of the people, naturally, not only will increase its burden, in a sense, will also make more people tend to exile.

And the more terrible is not here, but in, hide the account of such a thing, by no means ordinary people can do, up to the local government, down to the local bao long and a long, this up and down all the people, in essence, any link, are bound to be a part of it.

Even in the temple, there are only a number of people who are well aware of such a situation.

But it is ……… these things …… are actually airtight, everyone knows, but no one is willing to say, and no one dares to say.

Zhu is of course clear, in this, may not be everyone to get the benefits, but also not everyone is not aware of the harm of this matter, but even high in the temple of the people, but also do not dare to talk about this matter, then …… they are afraid of what?

What other power is there that is more terrifying than Zhu Di, the son of heaven?

Even holy orders cannot be honored in such a way that everyone dares to honor them.

Even if it was Zhu Di’s decree, there were still people who dared to seal the deal, and even dared to refute it righteously.

But it’s amazing how everyone has become blind and deaf to this obvious phenomenon.

Zhu Di at this time, gave birth to a strong sense of boredom.

He had been tugging at these people for many years and his heart was tired.

Looking at this one Hanlin, he dismissed these people, preferably for the rest of his life, and he didn’t want to see them again!

But …… it is easy to kick these people out, how to solve the affairs of the moment has become the urgent matter of the moment.

Zhu Di sat down, his face was gloomy, and then he looked up at Dajin and the others.

He also has quite a complaint against Xie Jin and others, because these Wen Yuan Ge University scholar, also dare not mention this matter.

And, on the other hand, Xie Jin and do not talk about it, but at least Yang Rong people, he has been considered loyal, but also never mentioned to him.

If not his grandson in Jiangxi Province, because the operation of the railroad, touching on this matter, so that Zhu Di realized that the problem of hidden households is serious to such a point, I’m afraid that now Zhu Di, still think that this is just a scab, hidden hidden households, but the world’s account of one of the ten or two it.

Zhu Di the more he thinks about actually feel worse, he pursed his lips, silent for a long time, before slowly said: “The problem of hidden households, is actually horrible as such, what do the ministers have to see the play?”

Xie Jin has obviously realized the mood of His Majesty at this time, looking at His Majesty’s gloomy face, it is impossible for them not to have a little uneasiness and fear inside.

To be honest, in his place Xie Jin was fooled in this way, I’m afraid that also want to turn over the sky, after all, already very mature, at this time, actually did not want to kill, but patiently inquire about the situation, visible His Majesty with the growth of age, has been enough patience.

Xie Jin tried to calm his nerves, panicked, said: “Your Majesty, I was in Java, also encountered such a situation, there are many people arrived in Java, there are also many people, hide their own household registration, but the good thing about Java is that it is only an island, and surrounded by the barbarians, if you hide their own household registration, not subject to His Majesty the King of Zhao’s jurisdiction, in the midst of the natives, it is difficult to maintain a living. But even so, there are still people who take the risk!”

“In the face of such a situation, Zhao Wangfu Household Division, there are specialized officials, responsible for the situation of the household register, every three to five, to carry out an inventory, to ensure that nothing is wrong …… I thought that …… may as well take advantage of the opportunity, first for the provinces. Carry out a large inventory, first figure out the general situation and then say.”

Zhu Di pondered for a moment, he frowned, seems to be thinking and weighing what, but think carefully, at the moment can only temporarily take the first solution to solve the Jin.

He closed his eyes, and then continued to slowly said: “the first under a stern decree, reprimanding the world’s government officials, especially the provinces and counties, the three divisions, more serious reprimand, the first to let them be born out of fear of the heart, and then ordered the provinces as well as the county, to carry out a rigorous investigation of the world’s officials, the Yongle dynasty than the high emperor of the Great Ancestor, the treacherous more than the … … …”

Many people could not help but shiver in their hearts when Zhu talked about Emperor Tai Zu Gao.

In this context, talked about Zhu Di his dear and favorite dad, which is actually a naked threat.

In the crowd more and more uneasy time, Zhu Di continued: “But since I ascended the throne, I killed the officials, far less than Emperor Taizu also. I can see that I treat the ministers and workers, has more than a heart of appeasement. I am so generous, how do you Secretary to report to me? How to deceive the top and bottom, so that the household registration system is corrupted to this point. From today onwards, the world officials immediately start to check the household register of the county people, if there is slack, will not be forgiven.”

Xie Jinyin and others have honestly written down.

Zhu Di also said: “This matter, to do it urgently, not only to the decree, and the Ministry of mandarins, the Academy should also be sent to the world of all provinces and counties to check, I want to ensure that nothing is wrong.”

Xie Jin and the others said, “Obey the decree.”

Zhu Di took a deep breath, he has been very patient today, after all, today’s income, although the news that he was furious, but also from his grandson’s good news.

But at this time, he really didn’t have the mood to continue to these people who made him feel bad. So Zhu Di immediately said, “Stand down.”

One by one, the university professors were silenced and retired, and returned to the Wen Yuan Pavilion, and all of them sighed with sighs of relief.

Zhang Anshi is okay, this has nothing to do with himself, how to settle accounts, but also can not be counted on their heads, but others, has begun to prepare to draft the decree.

His Majesty’s tone is so severe, then this decree, must also be with the aura of killing, and to show His Majesty’s determination to break the boat, after all, every word of the holy decree, are trying to be precise, otherwise, the lower three divisions and the state and counties can not penetrate the meaning of the decree.

Thus the text of the holy decree, both the requirements of the euphemism, after all, the emperor’s will, always not good on the face of the shouting and killing, but also to let people penetrate the true meaning of it, know the awesome, then …… it is imperative that to be imperial edicts of the Hanlin, as well as the university doctors to accurately grasp, a little bit of carelessness, even if it is the difference of a word, may appear ambiguous.

In general, is to be imperial edict of the Hanlin first roughly draft a decree, and then sent to the Grand Maestro, the Grand Maestro after a few deletions, and then submitted to the palace seal, which is promulgated through the Chief Secretary of the world.

Zhang Anshi can not understand, why the head of the Wen Yuan Pavilion for the drafting of the decree so important, he looked at the decree, only look at the literal meaning, as for the penetration of the decree in the intention, this is really too difficult for him.

Therefore, a full day, Zhang Anshi are just lonely himself to the Wen Yuan Pavilion of the bookstore to drink tea, but Zhang Anshi himself, but not without thinking about things, because he himself is blindly pondered a thing to, immediately, after the next duty, Zhang Anshi will hastily hit the road back to the house, but also ordered the escort Zhang San: “Go to the postal department of the …. . that Hu Mu called.”

It’s rude to call people by their first names.

But if it’s Chang An-shi, then it has nothing to do with politeness.

Hu Mu will occasionally go to the royal residence to report some matters to Zhang Anshi, so now and Zhang Anshi has been familiar with.

Many times, in the work to promote the encountered problems, Zhang Anshi can always occasionally issued a shocking words, but can let Hu Mu eyes brightly, quite a mountain of doubt, dark flowers and a sense of the village.

As a result, Hu Mu now admired Zhang Anshi to the core.

The most important thing is that he has now devoted himself to the affairs of the Postal Service, personnel, finance, rewards and punishments, business, these many things are all from scratch, little by little to accumulate experience.

Good in the matter of the advancement, is also smooth, this postal division up and down, in general treatment as well as rewards and punishment system proposed after, we are also willing to concentrate on life, so although occasionally some omissions, overall, has been satisfactory.

Hearing Zhang Anshi summoned, Hu Mu where dare to slow down, busy is to put down the work at hand, hurried to the king’s residence.

Although he was acquainted, Hu Mu still bowed respectfully when he saw Zhang Anshi, “Your Highness.”

Zhang Anshi glanced at him, “You are aware that this king has never been fond of false courtesy and politeness, there is no need to be polite, come, sit down and talk.”

Zhang Anshi then smiled and said, “Pour him tea.”

Zhang San on the side hurriedly poured tea for Hu Mu.

Zhang Anshi’s attitude came across as relaxed, but Hu Mu was not at all relaxed.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Has the …… business started on the Postal Division side?”

“Has begun.” Hu Mu paused, and then said: “Now the world more than three thousand post stations, almost has been cleaned up, the personnel has also been ready, and then there is the railroad division side, has also been contacted, in addition to this, there are all the waterways, all the passes, has also been sorted out, according to the command of His Highness, the township pavilion level, also set up the post box, and the flower stamps, has also begun to print! …… And then there is each post station, under the head and set up a number of newsstand, has also begun to properly.”

After thinking about it, he then said: “As for the state capitals …… required by the postal remittance, but also need some some days, but the official thought, this is not in a hurry, the so-called people do not have faith is not standing, this remittance after all, involves money, want to let people believe in the remittance of the credit, is not three or two days can be resolved. Need to start from the letter, and so people believe that the credit of the postal service, before someone is willing to send parcels, and wait until the parcels can also do a foolproof time, the bill of exchange business, before you can start, so the focus of the official now, is the business of the letter, which is to get the people’s trust in the foundation.”

Zhang Anshi said, “There are priorities, your thinking is not wrong, the world’s military and civilian people, especially in the remote countryside, they are cautious and conservative, careful in every way, want to win their trust, how difficult it is also, start with the letter, even if the initial period of the temporary purpose of not to win big profits, but as long as there is a credit, then … . it will be unfavorable.”

Hu Mu smiled and said, “There are also kiosks, kiosks deep into the countryside, both selling Di newspaper, but also responsible for the liaison of the post, but also allows people to conveniently deliver letterheads, but …… the next official is of the opinion that this kiosk in the sale of Di newspaper, whether it is too singular, if there are other books and books, or more favorable some. ”

Zhang Anshi lowered his eyes and contemplated for a moment, before saying: “This is the truth, the di newspaper readers will see, but for the ordinary only barely literate people, I’m afraid that the daily look at this di newspaper, but it is difficult to bring up the interest, and now outside, are not popular in all kinds of opera? With the opera, there are people writing books, these people …… may be available, might as well lend them a hand, can write some scripts or plays, take the rough paper printing, take out the sale as a supplement how?”

Hu Mu froze, and then his eyes brightened, and his mind, immediately thought of someone to come, and then said, “This …… sold out?”

Zhang Anshi laughed: “If it is selling serious stories, it may be difficult to say, but the sale is some time ago, I heard all the gentlemen in the Wen Yuan Pavilion talk about the story, I think it is not worried about selling.”

Hu Mu then said, “I wonder what the story is?”

Zhang Anshi said, “I don’t remember very well, but it’s probably that a young master had an affair with his maid, and then with his stepmother, and then with the groom, and then with the maid’s daughter, and so on, and you know it, and I’m not interested in it.”

Humu: “……”

Zhang Anshi looked at Hu Mu’s somewhat strange expression and said, “Why don’t you say anything?”

Hu Mu said: “may wish the next official first find someone about a draft to try to see, first try to print some, and then sent to the various newsstands …… to teach them to first trafficking to see.”

Zhang Anshi said: ”And remember, do not have to print into a book, but with the method of serialization, but also with the format of the Di Di newspaper, the first printing of a few chapters, in this way, just a few chapters, very cheap, like the Di Di newspaper, sold a three or five wen, it is enough. Not as expensive as books. On the other hand, with serialization, naturally someone who reads the front, will be eager to read the back, and the sales in the future, will also be guaranteed.”

After a pause, Zhang Anshi added: “In addition, this serialized long story, but also can then ask people to embellish some small stories, interspersed among them …… This paper, can be shoddy some, but …… must be sturdy. ”

Hu Mu was stunned again, the first words, he understood well, but the latter words, he was a bit puzzled, so he said, “What is the reason for this?”

Is it hard to believe that there’s a special use for it?

Zhang Anshi laughed: “After people read it, there is always a need to make this newspaper still have value , e.g. …… for toilet use.”

Humu: “……”

Well, with that answer, he had nothing to say.

In this day and age, using paper to go to the toilet is considered a luxury.

However, when you pay for a newspaper, enjoy reading the stories in it, take it to waste, may be for many people, but not a loss, after all, …… paper is costly.

Hu Mu is a real person, and did not explore more here, thought about it and said, “Pricing how much is good?”

“The cheaper the better.” Zhang Anshi laughed, “Thin profit, just make sure you don’t lose money.”

Hu Mu said with slight surprise, “Not earning silver on this?”

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “If you can really sell it and sell it well, do you still worry that you won’t make a lot of money?”

Humu: “……”

Hu Mu would like to continue to ask for advice, but afraid that Zhang Anshi is too long-winded, but he is somewhat unable to understand, this back to earn a lot of money in the end is how to mean.

Just as he hesitated, Zhang Anshi was the one who slammed his face and said, “There is one thing that I would like to explain to you.”

Hu Mu immediately dismissed the thoughts of the party, and looking at Zhang Anshi’s serious face, he also subconsciously sat upright and said, “I also ask for Your Highness’s advice.”

Zhang Anshi said, “The lower end of the stagecoach, newsstand, and those running errands of the stagecoach pawns, newsstand personnel, to the king to keep an eye, within the scope of their business, the county, the township, as well as wandering within the villages, the number of this manpower, to the king to count, remember, make sure to be accurate.”

Hu Mu said, “Oh, my humble servant understands.”

Zhang Anshi froze and said, “Understood, what did you understand?”

“This is the negligence of the next official.” Hu Mu said with a ashamed face, “I actually forgot about this, right now our postal division business, this is to seek to do to benefit all the military and civilian people in the world, if it is the people everywhere, do not know the geometry, then …… inevitably there will be a deviation.”

“I heard that the Qixia merchant bank to do business, there is a thing called market research, to sell a thing, it is necessary to first let the bottom, the market and how many merchant banks in the sale of this thing, how many people have a demand for this thing, the various prefectures and counties can sell this thing store situation, in this way, can be the pricing of the thing has a prediction, and to the future sales of this thing have a grasp. ”

Hu Mu smiled bitterly: “from the Qixia merchant bank side, allocated to the postal department of many backbone, each time to talk about the Qixia merchant bank of these experiences, are taught to people thought-provoking, just the next official, just the left ear into the right ear out, even this, did not do to reflect on the three, and now also need Your Highness deliberately to remind, is really a shame, the next official to go back, and then immediately mobilize the postal department of the up and down, the This matter is done well, with these numbers, not only to be gathered together for the Postal Service reference.”

After a pause, he went on to say, “For the prefectures, counties, villages of the postal staff, with the address and the name of the personnel, which sends a letter, it can also be done foolproof, and more quickly, I’m afraid that …… can have a miraculous effect!”

This time …… is Zhang Anshi s turn to be dumbfounded.

……………

I wrote a chapter yesterday, felt unsatisfied with it, and deleted it.

Stayed up late rewriting, here’s yesterday’s, and there’s more tonight.
