Chapter 34 The Real Hai Rui

Zhu Yijun took the book presented by Zhang Jing and said it was a book, but it was actually two booklets, which looked a bit worn, but Zhu Yijun still put it carefully and then said, "I will definitely study it carefully."

Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Hai Rui smiled and said, "That minister is waiting for the emperor's good news."

After seeing Hai Rui off, Zhu Yijun picked up Hai Rui's book. The first book Zhu Yijun picked up was Hai Rui's "Governor Constitutional Covenant". At the beginning, Hai Rui wrote down his original intention of writing this book.

Zhu Yijun was very stunning. After reading it, Zhu Yijun picked up the brush and put forward a sentence in the blank space of Hai Rui's book.

"Officials do not fear my strictness but my integrity, and the people do not obey my ability but my public. If they are honest, officials dare not be arrogant, and if they are public, the people dare not deceive. Publicity will be bright, and integrity will be powerful."

This sentence is enough to summarize Hai Rui's original intention and also allows Zhu Yijun to understand Hai Rui better.

The main content of this book is rather a rule than a rule. Zhu Yijun smiled as he looked at it. In this era, if Hai Rui's rule was taken out, no wonder he was collectively excluded by officials.

The "Governor-Governor Constitution" stipulates that the governor will go to patrol the local government, prefectures, prefectures, and county officials are not allowed to go out to welcome the city, nor are they allowed to hold banquets.

Considering that the officials of the court may still have to save a little decent, he allowed the working meal to have chicken, fish, and pork, but no geese and rice wine are allowed, and it is not allowed to exceed the food standards. This standard is: where the prices are high, there are three cents of silver, and where the prices are low, and even the expenses of candles, firewood, etc. are within the above amount.

Such a rule is really unacceptable to the current officials, but in Zhu Yijun's opinion, it really doesn't matter how you look at it and how comfortable it is. It also stipulates that there is meat, and Hai Rui is not that rigid!

Later governments have severely cracked down on the issue of officials eating and drinking on public funds. Hai Rui has such a vision, and he really has a great vision. The key is that he has really done it. Although it has not been thoroughly implemented, such an attempt is good and worthy of praise.

Later, Hai Rui wrote about the one-whip method. In fact, when he was the county magistrate, Hai Rui began to implement the one-whip method.

In Hai Rui's whip method, there is already a prototype of digging into the mu.

Hai Rui changed the tax system of taxes and labor service based on land, households and residents in the past to collect money and silver based on land and population. The taxpayer took turns to tax transportation to the government collecting the transportation on its own.

Just the item of luck will reduce a lot of burden to the people.

However, this will definitely increase the burden on subordinate officials, and this is probably also their reason to oppose Hai Rui.

At the same time, land tax, labor and other miscellaneous taxes are combined into one, and the land tax is calculated and collected uniformly. The original method of levying the households is changed to spreading the land acres according to the method of levying the households. This article already means to spread the land acres. If you add a tax on the officials and gentry, it can really be implemented.

Zhu Yijun became more and more excited as he looked at it, and he was very excited. Perhaps no one could understand Hai Rui in this era, or perhaps no one was willing to understand Hai Rui.

Everyone thinks that Hai Rui is an alien and thinks that Hai Rui is not sociable, but no one wants to understand what Hai Rui really thinks. Compared to Zhang Juzheng, the honest officials proposed by Hai Rui, and even used severe punishments to eliminate corruption, although it is difficult, the effect will be better.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Xining is asking for a visit outside!"

Although Zhang Jing was unwilling to disturb Zhu Yijun, he still gritted his teeth and reported.

He frowned slightly, and Zhu Yijun frowned and said with a sneer: "Let him wait outside!"

"Yes, the emperor!" Zhang Jing agreed, turned around and walked out.

Zhu Yijun was interrupted and put down Hai Rui's booklet casually. At this moment, Zhu Yijun remembered Hai Rui's evaluation of Zhang Juzheng, "It is good at planning the country, and it is difficult to plan for the body." Although Zhang Juzheng has suppressed Hai Rui for so many years, Hai Rui still gave such an evaluation, which shows that Hai Rui has a positive attitude towards some of Zhang Juzheng's things.

Hai Rui agreed with Zhang Juzheng's reform, but did not agree with his way of employing people. Hai Rui believed that while reforming, we should rectify the administration of officials.

Zhang Juzheng believed that doing so would not work, because you have to use officials to promote reforms. If you are too strict with them, the reforms will not be carried out. However, in terms of reforms themselves, they are consistent in enriching the country and strengthening the people for the Ming Dynasty.

However, both of them were demonized and were all splashed with dirty water. Many people even used suppression of Hai Rui to attack Zhang Juzheng.

In fact, the two of them were just political disagreements and never spoke harshly. They were many times better than those who often splashed dirty water and had any hats. Zhu Yijun reached out to hit Hai Rui's memorial, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn.

From a realistic perspective, Zhang Juzheng's method is more feasible, but it is not a root cause!

He reached out and opened Hai Rui's "Governor Constitutional Constitution" again, and focused on another thing here, that is, contract. When dealing with contract issues, Hai Rui demanded that the resolution of disputes must be based on written contracts.

If there is no contract, Hairui approved the redemption to only one-twentieth of all detention loan cases.

Later, Hai Rui also emphasized that the people were illiterate and could not enter into a contract, so there should be officials from the court. Anyone who needed to enter into a contract would be the middle-aged person, and the contract should be filed in the yamen.

From this post, Zhu Yijun saw a few points and even wanted to applaud Hai Rui.

If such a contract is signed, the problems of usury, selling children and women will be solved, and even land investment will be solved to a certain extent. If a contract is notarized by the yamen, it will be invalid.

Not only will it establish order, but it can also make many things more standardized.

For example, the land lease contract between a tenant farmer and a landlord can be clearly marked and written on the contract to prevent local tyrants from suppressing the people.

However, Zhu Yijun also knew that as soon as this policy was released, the local tyrants would probably scold Hai Rui's ancestors. Zhu Yijun felt relieved when he looked at it. Sure enough, Hai Rui did not disappoint himself, and this policy was very good.

Zhu Yijun was still unsatisfied with reading it, so he reached out and picked up the "Regulations on the Reform" written by Hai Rui.

This booklet was written when he was a county magistrate. It contains many specific things and also focuses on his case-breaking strategy of "rather than wronging his brother, he would rather wronging his younger brother; rather than wronging his uncle, he would rather wronging his nephew; rather than wronging his poor, he would rather wronging his people are rich; rather than wronging his wronging, he would rather wronging his wronging, he would rather wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, than wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, he would rather be wronging, than wronging, poor and stubborn."

Zhu Yijun shook his head when he saw it, but Zhu Yijun also knew that Hai Rui was not just doing this strategy.

In this era, this is called the etiquette. Many people do this, and it is not so sinful to do this at this time. This is just a dirty water poured on Hai Rui by those who are interested, and it also says that poor households defraud wealthy households.

The person who says this must be a wealthy family. The rich have always bullied the poor. How difficult is the poor to deceive the rich family?

This is just that some people want to arouse the rich family’s disgust towards Hai Rui. Who is the rich family? A gentleman!
