Chapter 411 The first day

It was relatively happy to be an official in the Song Dynasty, and it may be a bit annoying to the morning dynasty. In fact, it was not that serious. One was the grand dynasty, that is, the first and fifteenth dynasties. But it was not necessarily the case. Sometimes the emperor felt uncomfortable and sent eunuchs to the wait-out court to inform them, and everyone had to go back to work in various departments, especially when Zhao Zhen and Zhao Shu were in his later years.

Another one is the dynasty, also called the Living Day, which may be three or four days, but it may not be possible. When the emperor thought of a big event, he asked the eunuch to lead the guards to ring the bell of the Drum Tower, and the officials would enter the hall to discuss matters. However, not every official in this dynasty is qualified. He must be an official at the level of the Living Day at the Secretariat or above in the Junxia Provincial Department of the People. Now Wang Ju is not allowed. Later, Wang Anshi changed it, and it became a five-day ceremonial, but it was not decided. Later, it was constantly changing, such as Song Xiaozong had a Living Day every day.

The two court meetings were not in the same place. The front was in the Chuigong Hall and the back was in the Changchun Hall. There was another form. The emperor summoned ministers to discuss matters alone, sometimes to the Political Affairs Hall, sometimes in the Outside Hall. For example, Zhao Xuxi summoned ordinary ministers in the Outside Hall of Yanhe Hall, and if he was an important minister, he was in the Inside Hall of Yanhe Hall.

This is morning court. Although it is a bit painful, it is not often the same. For officials like Wang Ju, they only need to get up twice a month.

Then go to work.

First of all, there are holidays. There are so many holidays in the Song Dynasty, as many as cows, so this one has to be on holiday.

In addition to holidays, there are also rotation breaks. In fact, officials work less than half of their working hours every year, and they are playing the rest. It is during this working hours that they go to work in the department department at dawn. The sun is still hanging high in the sky of the West Mountain, and they get off work.

Qiong Niang carefully sorted out the official uniform for Wang Ju.

The crispy hands are as cool as jade, with a little coolness.

"I'll do it myself." Wang Ju said.

"Let Madam Qiong come," said Fei'er. This was her first time working in Beijing, and Li Fei'er was very nervous.

"Are you very proud?" Wang Ju asked Qiong Niang, and Li Fei'er must not understand.

"I can still help. Don't compare me to those officials," said Qiong Niang dissatisfied.

"Let's go," Wang Ju didn't want to talk to her. He said, and went to the Sansi Regulation Department.

The later generations may not understand this institution. It is gradually replacing the three departments, but not the three departments. It can be said that it is the National Development and Reform Commission, but it is not the National Development and Reform Commission. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it, just treat it as the National Development and Reform Commission.

Strictly speaking, Sima Guang and others have not understood it now. They originally planned to be under the Secretariat. However, since Wang Anshi and Chen Xu both served as both governments seemed to have the right to govern.

As for the officials, two, Xiao Su and Lu Huiqing, there are only a dozen officials left.

If you ask what you are doing, you can't tell me.

Therefore, Sima Guang had no choice but to say that the Regulations Department used redundantness to increase redundancy, increased financial expenses, infringement of the Secretary of the Central Committee, transfer luck, and increase the power of the prison and prefectures and counties.

OK, the latter one hits the core point.

It seems that it has no power, but the power play is not there. It can interfere with all economic affairs of the three departments and various prefectures and counties. For example, the equal-to-date method is issued under the name of the Regulation Department. For example, Dacheng and eight others went down to investigate, and they were inspected by officials under the Regulation Department. Of course, when they returned to the capital, they were all under their jurisdiction, but they still did not belong to the management of the Regulation Department.

So what kind of institution is it?

One is the link between the two governments and the three departments, and the other is the Development and Reform Commission. The annual export law, the Qingmiao Law, the Exemption Law of the Farmland Water Conservancy Law were all issued from the Regulations Department. Specific rights: formulate and issue new laws, and have the right to request envoys to inspect and investigate the implementation of relevant reforms. The three departments have the power to control the financial power and have the right to impeach dissident officials.

So it seems that there is no power or no one, but in fact its power is not in place. It has touched many ministries, including the Secretariat and Privy Council, a large number of legislative powers, administrative powers and supervisory powers.

It is not a separate organization. It is controlled by Wang Anshi and Chen Xu in front of it. Soon Chen Shengzhi felt something was wrong. After resigning, he transferred to Wang Anshi and Han Jiang's hands. In fact, it became Wang Anshi's biggest assistant to the reform, and through it, Wang Anshi expanded his power in disguise.

Although the reform is good, the Regulation Department has become Wang Anshi's shield, think tank, thug and advocate. Or it seems to be developing towards Wang Anshi's private organization, so by next year more and more ministers attacked it, so they were incorporated into the Secretariat and finally disappeared. But it doesn't matter, Wang Anshi introduced the Sinong Temple and the Secretariat's Regulation Department...

So there was a scene that Wang Ju saw when he came to the Registration Department.

In a simple institution, Xiao Su is busy looking through the official documents. God knows what he is looking at?

Lu Huiqing was talking to Zhang Dun, while the remaining officials were having tea and chatting together.

But Zhang Dun is in charge of the Kapok Division, and the Kapok Division is under the jurisdiction of the Three Divisions. It is no wonder that the Regulation Department has the right to inquire about the situation of the three divisions and departments!

Even no matter how you look at it, it is not like a unit of work!

Seeing Wang Ju, Xiao Su put down the official document in his hand and said, "Zi'an, we're finally here."

On the other hand, Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun also came up and chatted with Wang Juhan. Xiao Su immediately sat back. Wang Ju touched his nose. It turned out that this was the enemy of life and death.

"Brother Zihou, how do you come to the Registration Department?"

"Brother Jifu wants to know about the situation of Kapok Sin."

Su Che snorted coldly again on the side. Did he feel embarrassed to bring up Kapok? The real master is the one in front of him!

Wang Ju touched his nose again.

If you talk about plagiarism, you are the biggest plagiarist.

He opened his mouth and said, "The old saying goes, "The way of the Tao is different and does not plan for each other, but what is the way of the minister? It is to enrich the people and strengthen the country!"

Everyone is kind-hearted, but their own methods are different. Why do you have to make it so incompatible? Or whoever thinks it is all for the country, and no one is competing for this position, so why bother to worry about it?

"Brother Zihou, how is that Kapok?"

"It's not as good as the inner warehouse. The inner warehouse is carried by your lord and Su Lishe. The area of ​​kapok planting reaches 4,000 hectares, and only a few hundred hectares belonging to the Kapok Branch. However, Mr. Jiefu ordered the official relocation, and the scale will be expanded rapidly next year. What will be the merits of your lord?"

"He is now a commoner. Just grab it. Whether it is the Three Divisions or the Inner Treasury, it is for the court to make profits. Why does it mean to grab it or not? But the court ordered the forced relocation of the people, which would be a commotion?"

"Slightly commotion. But not very big," Zhang Dun said.

In fact, this is Cheng Shi Meng’s merit. One came spontaneously and the other moved by force. The situation was eventually different. The coming came with hope, and the latter may also be a poor person, but it will be dissatisfied.

Moreover, the forced relocation was not enough time. Some people were moved over without any arrangements for what happened next. They were moved over without having anything. After all, all these people were gone. They lacked cheap tenant farmers, and the clerks on the road also had some illegal acts. There were many people and improper arrangements. Also, they started to make money now. A large number of people came and they could not arrange them well. The weather was hot, the crowds were dense, and there were no malaria, but hundreds of people died. There were still some later. Yes, there were many primitive places in Guangdong and Guangxi that were not developed, but the court wanted to make contributions immediately. It was unlikely to develop them by relocating for a autumn and winter. Labor must be organized from the local area, so the local people invisibly added a lot of labor...etc.

There were many problems, and the court also received some impeachments from the following areas, especially those areas where the relocation was ruthless, and the powerful protested one by one. Cheng Shimeng saw that it was not good, so he hurried to the front line and made careful arrangements. He was so tired that he could barely settle the migrants one by one. Then he wrote memorials and let the court slowly. Fortunately, there was a comparison between the inner warehouse. The officials were forced to do nothing, so there was no major problem.

In short, there was a lot of resentment, but after being controlled by Cheng Shi Meng, the resentment did not expand, which was better than what Wang Ju thought.

Unfortunately, no one in the court could see Cheng Shimeng’s efforts.

Wang Ju didn't expect it, so he murmured: "Isn't it big?"

"The country's financial difficulties are in poverty, so Duke Jiefu has to do it." Lu Huiqing said.

After hearing this, Wang Ju stopped making a sound. Lu Huiqing's words were very clear. Now he is just to make money, and even the method of equal savings has come out, and it is cotton. Wang Anshi's intention of doing this is nothing more than to reverse the country's financial situation in a very short time. If the finances are improved, all the opposition will be clouds.

But is it true?

Lu Huiqing asked the officials to brew tea and said, "If kapok planting can reach 20,000 hectares next year, the benefits will be unimaginable."

"Brother Ji Fu, things are precious because they are rare. Once there are too many, their profits will not be as good as they are now," Wang Ju said. If you plant 30,000 hectares of cotton, can you still expect a quilt worth more than 20 chunks like last year?

Of course, the more you plant in these ten years, the higher the benefits the court will be.

"I wonder if Brother Zi'an has any other open source strategy?" Zhang Dun asked again.

Su Che also put down the official documents and listened to Wang Anshi's open source is not called open source, cotton is the real open source. There are several major things to make up for, and with the reduction of expenditure, the national finance will immediately become full of health.

"Brother Zihou, you really look down on me. There are small open source sources, such as shojiu, will you be interested?"

Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun laughed together. Soup wine is also good, but in a country, its profit is too little, or it cannot save the current urgent matter.

But Wang Ju would not be able to hand it over to the court. As Zhang Yue thought, it would be very convenient to operate in his own hands. There was no way to use sugar, otherwise Wang Ju would not let the warehouse participate. However, he did not dare to enter cotton. This scale was too large, and food, clothing, housing and transportation were the first priority. Moreover, the labor required was a lot of labor, and it was not something that could be operated by individuals.

However, he was reluctant to hand over the sugar to Sansi. God knows what he finally brought out?

In fact, besides sugar, there is another thing, but he doesn't plan to take action on that thing for the time being, because it will kill people...

"Brother Jifu, I'm here to the Regulation Department, what do I have to do?"

"There is really one thing, but it will take a few days." Lu Huiqing said.

Wang Ju felt bitter in his heart. I understand, Xiao Su is not easy to say. He must wait until Xiao Su is exiled before he is put on the agenda. Qingmiao Law!

However, Wang Ju didn't sit for long. After a while, the secretary of the Zhongshu came over and conveyed Wang Anshi's order to go to the Sozao County to see how the water was drained from the Horizon dike.

A very normal order, Wang Ju was surprised and said, "There is no Horidius yet?"

This is not a joke. Relatively speaking, the rain is relatively abundant this year. Although Wang Ju knew every edict from the capital, he vaguely knew that the court seemed to have restrained the flowing water in the north and led all the water of the Yellow River to the east.

Isn’t it fucking if the rivers and embankments flowing eastwards pour out the water of the Yellow River?

Nothing happened now, but don’t make a mistake. This water does not flow to the Bohai Sea at once. The river water seen from Kaifeng will take at least several days to enter the sea.

This is really a big deal. Once the Yellow River breaks its dam again, it will be gone at least a few million or even tens of millions of yuan. How many quilts will have to be sold?

It also refers to the losses of the court, taxes, and disaster relief. If it includes the losses of the people, it is even more incalculable.

"Brother Jifu, brother Zihou, brother Ziyou, then I'll go down first. You guys can chat slowly. Remember my words, don't always think about the problem from your own perspective, and think from the other party's perspective appropriately. Then there will be no so many contradictions and hatred."

Actually, it’s for Xiao Su to listen to.

You are not a "Shuo" person, but a Sichuanese person, so there is no need to learn to be Song Can.

After Wang Ju finished speaking, he immediately left the Regulation Department and went home. The whole family was surprised. Fei'er asked, "Why are you back so soon?"

"The Secretariat asked me to go to the Yellow River for something."

"How about the regulations?" Qiong Niang asked.

"Want to listen to the truth or to lie?"

“Huh?”

"Like lies is very happy, basically doing nothing, the truth is just a mess!" (To be continued)
