Chapter 588 Two idiots (1)

Wang Ju and officials of all sizes from Qingzhou looked at the imperial decree in their hands. They were not happy even if they were happy, and they were not worried even if they were worried.

The money for exemption from work was distributed.

Huanzhou and Qingzhou shared a total of nearly 50,000 jin of exemption, plus nearly 15,000 jin of leftover money.

After the war, Wang Ju got a lot of official positions, including Zhongsan Doctor, Prince Zhongyun, Hanlin Bachelor, etc. Wang Ju really didn't care much about these officials. At most, he said that his current official uniform has changed from green to scarlet, and finally entered the ranks of middle and high-level officials.

The power in his hand is still a lie, and the Shaanxi Pacifier must have been removed, but the Huanqing Road Pacifier Strategy Recruitment still remains.

However, in peacetime, it is not that important to have this pacification strategy or recruitment.

No, the Gyeongju Prefecture also has a part of the right to interfere in the affairs of the military forces of several other states. There is also only the right to intervene and cannot interfere in all.

Only when you say that you have it, you will be more correct when asking about it.

However, the Gyeongzhou magistrate should have stricter control over Huanzhou, just like Yanzhou magistrate against the Security Army. Because Huanzhou itself is a military state and is mostly served by military generals, its government capabilities may be limited, so the Gyeongzhou magistrate can intervene more deeply.

Besides, Yao Yi has taken over Huanzhou again.

Zeng Bu also knew about this, so when he calculated the levy at Sinong Temple, he put the two prefectures together and sent them to Qingzhou City.

*But this number is not too much. In history, before and after the implementation of the Immunity Law, the number of officers and yamen was reduced by 80,000 to 90,000 people. Why? It used to be that there was no need to pay salaries, and officials didn’t care. Now they have to pay wages. Officials have started to send people to settle accounts. If they can be reduced, they will be exempted so as to reduce the levy. In addition, the staff members who were exempted from Fangchang Hedu system were combined, and 80,000 to 90,000 people were exempted at once.

It's Wang Ju's turn to this situation soon.

He also wanted to send people to calculate the number of servants in Huanqing Prefectures and try to reduce the number of exemptions in order to reduce the levy.

Compared with the nine years of Xining, the service fee is 6.5 million, and the remaining money is nearly 4 million. Not only will the actual levy be distributed, but officials must also make a little profit. Add this number to be calculated based on guan and guan, which is more expensive than guan. Therefore, the number is above guan, so the actual levy of the people may be between 15 million and 20 million guan. The accurate number cannot be calculated.

The service is divided into short-term service and long service, and each has different treatments, so it is evenly distributed. The salary of a long service is about 25 knots per year. According to the average price of various places in the Song Dynasty, it can only barely maintain the family's life. However, if the wife does some work, the family can still maintain food and clothing. Of course, it is definitely not enough in the capital, Hangzhou, and the amount paid in these areas will be more.

But this is not surprising. Since Wang Anshi has implemented the exemption law, he must send someone to investigate, repeatedly argue, and then verify the numbers.

It's basically the same, but the Song Dynasty is so big that there are some areas where the levies are unfair, which has caused many problems.

But it has nothing to do with Wang Ju, and what Wang Ju cares about is Qingzhou.

There are more than 20,000 people in front of various servants in Huanqing Prefectures. This number can be cut a little. If you deduct short-term service, a long-term service can be distributed to about 25 stakes.

With the prices in Huanqing and the two states, the whole family can almost be confused.

The proportion of levying money in the entire Song Dynasty was considered to be of medium proportion.

This shows that Zeng Bu also gave some care and did not calculate the green salt money obtained by the people of the two states in their income.

Therefore, it is not much to say, and it is even nearly 10,000 yuan lower than Wang Ju and Zhang Jing’s budget.

However, this was finally more than 60,000 yuan, and it was still a huge amount.

Don't say anything, let's share...

Wang Ju took out a stack of files and said, "You can share them according to them."

Everyone took these files and took them over and saw them, which was a bit stupid.

In fact, Wang Ju had expected this day because he secretly used his power to let the front-line officers and soldiers organize a Baishang Army. However, this Baishang Army had to go to Xixia to spy on military information, and returned to Huanzhou and two states to spy on the economy of third-class and above households, including movable property and real estate, and then made an assessment.

But this is also training.

A real spy not only needs to spy on the enemy's marches, but also has a lot of things to spy on, food and grass logistics, as well as the people's sentiments and economy behind the enemy.

It may still have serious errors, but it is definitely much more accurate than the information in the hands of the government.

All officials started to pay tribute according to the information, and there were still many things. Since they were exempted from service, those who were unwilling to take on the job can now be released. However, these servants are still indispensable, so they have to hire people again.

In fact, this process will cause serious problems. If the exemption money is paid, not all officials will want to make a little profit, mainly the clerks.

What really harms the people is not the clerks, but the hard work of the yamen and the servants. Can clerks harm the people?

What is a clerk? It is all the remaining official positions in a county except the county magistrate, county party secretary, and public security bureau chief.

Just getting the benefits is enough to fatten them.

Therefore, most of the clerks are top-notch local tyrants, otherwise many incompetent officials would not be overthrown.

After this exemption from the military service, more than 90% of the clerks rarely moved.

The longest way to reach out is these clerks. If the officials are incompetent, they will pay more. Then when they actually pay the salary to the servants, they will reach out and deduct it again. Originally, the court was planning to go, and their income was barely allowed to make a living for their family. If they deduct it another way, how to support their family. Therefore, many people are still unwilling to go on business trips, but for the sake of the local servants, the government had to forcibly levy them again.

As well as other messy things, coupled with this slack and surplus money, it still makes me mess when the exemption law is enforced.

However, it also depends on the officials. Wang Ju is in charge of Qingzhou, and no one dares to move. Wang Ju really knows how to kill people. Just like that Yao Dachuan, the court ruled that the clever word was sensible, and he was very serious. Wang Ju still disagreed and made three comments in succession.

Just as Yang Hui went down, the Censorate was afraid of Wang Ju, so he finally agreed to Wang Ju's verdict. As soon as autumn arrived, Wang Ju sent the executioner to take him to kill him.

Therefore, some clerks with poor performance should go all the way. Some of the clerks in Qingzhou are scholars and some are poor scholars. Although some clerks with good performance will continue to retain them, less than half of them are.

The pressure on officials in Gyeongju can be imagined.

But Wang Ju had already prepared for this day. With the order issued, a team of officers and soldiers retreated from the front line and entered various cities and towns.

But it was inevitable that there was a commotion in Gyeongju.

These high-quality households are not unreasonable. Not only are the two prefectures in Huanqing, but other prefectures are also gradually implementing the exemption law, but these prefectures are entrusted more widely and entrusted more widely, which means that the number of people entrusted will be reduced.

However, in Huanzhou, Qingzhou, no matter whether the Qingmiao loan or exemption money is paid, Wang Ju will not be entrusted to the fifth-class household. The fourth-class household must also deduct good households, widowed households, widowed households, female households, martyrs, filial sons, and the remaining entrusted proportion is smaller than that of the fourth-class households in other prefectures.

If you don’t have poverty, you will have scarce weight. That’s all. We are not resisting and causing trouble, but you should also reason.

Wang Ju summoned everyone and said, "If you want to be reasonable, I will be reasonable. According to the imperial edict of the court, don't talk about the fifth-class households, even the fourth-class households. Do you want to implement the service? Does the exemption money from the edict of the Secretariat have said that it will be distributed to the fifth-class households?"

"But other prefectures..." a gentry said boldly, but Wang Ju interrupted him: "The other prefectures are not doing this, right? The others are others, I am me. In fact, it is nothing more than you levy more money. I just want to say two things. The first is that when the rich and poor are serious inequality, the world will be in chaos. Once that time comes, you will lose any wealth. The second is that I am also trying to find a way to solve it, and I can't do it. But if you find a way to reduce the amount of money for exemption, you will also pay less."

"What can this be reduced?" said another squire.

The background of this sentence is related to Fu Bi.

Fu Bi was in Bozhou, and the Qingmiao loan was borrowed by the court. The county officials issued Qingmiao loan. As a result, Fu Bi was arrested one by one and taken to Bozhou City, and all of them were severely beaten. He also asked the Guan Juguan Xu Gonggu to issue Lubu documents in various counties in Bozhou, and each county was not allowed to implement the imperial edict. I am asking the emperor for all the reasons. This edict is wrong.

After hearing this, Wang Anshi used Fu Bi to kill Ji Jie and asked Deng Wan to come down to investigate.

Some officials of the Song Dynasty did not take the imperial edict seriously, such as Wang Ju. But at most they were slanderous and would not confront each other as publicly as Fu Bi.

Fu Bi must have made a serious mistake, so he begged to sit alone. I will come to our province and not disperse the money and hu. I am willing to punish the other county officials below Xu Gonggu, hoping that the sages and charity will be given to you.

So he dismissed his position as Fu Bi and asked him to return to Luoyang to retire.

In addition to Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu was the same, but he was not as brave as Fu Bi. He was no longer as brave. However, he repeatedly wrote letters to oppose him and asked Wang Anshi to let him retire and retire.

As soon as the two fell, the rest did not dare to let go.

So everyone doubted what Wang Ju said.

Wang Ju smiled and pointed to the surplus money, saying, "Don't think about the money for exemption, but this money can be fought for everyone."

When these gentry's eyes lit up, they had a lot of money left, more than 10,000 yuan. In fact, after Wang Ju transported salt, there were not many fifth-class households in Huanqing Prefectures. Even if they were asked to pay, they could not pay so much money.

Wang Ju clearly used this to make concessions. If Wang Ju gives in, they also want to give in.

Then they dispersed one by one.

In fact, these people are a few people. As long as they are fair in the rank of second and third-class households, they are most eager to do so. The previous servants have made them suffer.

However, this is the most contradictory part of the reform.

For example, if this exemption law is implemented well, it is indeed a good law. What will happen if it is in Wang Ju's previous life that Ma Yun did not run his Taobao, but instead served as a mayor, or even a worker in a state-owned coal mine without paying him a salary?

However, because Zhao Xu and Wang Anshi valued wealth, their positive side was weakened.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, just like the two tax laws of the Tang Dynasty, which were picked up by the Song Dynasty and became a good law. But how many people conflicted when the Tang Dynasty began to implement it?

Originally, the powerful people from all over the country were a group of superiors, but now they are suddenly responsible for the most stakes. With these shortcomings, how can the opposition be voiced? In fact, this is the real reason for the opposition. However, because of the previous wealth accumulation, many descendants were confused, and the later they went, the less enlightened they became than the Song Dynasty, and there was no such thing as Qi people. Therefore, Wang Anshi was defeated by the traitor, thinking that Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu and others were virtuous ministers... Well, they were so virtuous.

However, Wang Ju never made any statement. He sent away the powerful and began to write memorials, saying that Qingzhou was very opposed, and in recent years, Xixia repeatedly invaded Qingzhou. Not only did the people suffer, but many people died. It was approaching the front line, and Hengshan was newly attached. If the levy was too heavy, it would change. Therefore, I beg the court to exempt the levy and surplus money. If Song Xia was peaceful, after a few years of rest and restoration, he could also re-execute the levy and surplus money.

Indeed, many young and strong people died in the two prefectures of Huanqing. Not only were there foreign households, but some were Han households.

And this section of Hengshan is indeed too important.

For example, in the past, the Song Dynasty could only inquire about the Xia army on Hengshan, but now because of this section of Hengshan, some clever scouts could even find out about Yanzhou and Lingzhou. This was unimaginable in the past.

Wang Ju wrote the memorial and sent someone to the capital, and then waited for news from the capital.

But as soon as the memorial was sent away, the court sent a central envoy to Qingzhou. The central envoy was Qian Dongchun, who was also a eunuch, but Wang Ju didn't know him.

Whether he knew him or not, Wang Ju would be polite to treat him. He warmly welcomed Qian Dongchun into the prefecture yard and asked what he had come.

Qian Dongchun expressed his intention.

Wang Ju brought more than 3.8 million stones of green salt from Yanzhou. Not only did the four prefectures on the front line, but also the people of the three prefectures in the rear rushed over to transport salt. Therefore, the merchants lacked labor at the time and only transported part of them back for sale.

At the end of the war, Wang Ju withdrew his troops from Yanzhou. Although he knew that Wang Ju would not be greedy for this green salt, everyone was worried about putting the green salt in several forts and forts. Therefore, they transported it back one after another.

With such a large number, because of the best-selling of Qingyan, the areas affected are very wide, including Hedong Road, where merchants transported Qingyan from Yanzhou back to the northeastern part of the Hebei region. In fact, the southern part of Hedong Road and Jingji West Road were also seriously affected.

Although the cost is increased due to the freight problem, the green and salt tastes delicious and the selling price is higher.

Therefore, over the past six months, the sales of salt have dropped sharply.

Seeing this situation, Wang Anli wrote to the court, saying that Wang Ju did this was wrong, which was equivalent to using the national salt profit in disguise to win people's hearts.

It is the heart of the people, not the heart of the people, because it is not only the heart of the people, but also the heart of the army.

After a few months, the influence of the Qingzhou victory gradually faded, and it was time to take action. After seeing Wang Anli's memorial, many ministers wrote letters to impeach Wang Ju.

Zhao Xu was furious because of a quarrel, so he asked Zhong Zhi to come down to ask. Asking for a question is a polite statement, but it is actually investigating this matter... (To be continued...) i1292
