The reform measures of the cabinet in northern provinces have made those honest and honest officials who are upright and honest, and after being promoted, they immediately became strong supporters of the cabinet reform plan. They were very concerned about the renovation of local water conservancy and the promotion of the Baojia system.

In the past, these honest and diligent officials did not take them away and then bribed senior officials. Some of them even took the position of county magistrates for more than ten years.

This was the officialdom in the late Ming Dynasty. If you don’t know how to curry favor with Shangguan and are honest and diligent, Shangguan really has no choice but to do anything to them, but it is basically impossible for them to be promoted.

Therefore, many honest and diligent officials are at the grassroots level and are stuck there and can no longer get up, so they can only manage their own acre of land. Other places are powerless, and many things can only be left unrelated to them.

While the cabinet promoted a large number of grassroots officials who were honest and diligent in their grassroots officials, these promoted grassroots officials also received financial support.

Not only did he get promoted, but his income also increased.

In addition, the reform measures of the cabinet are the right medicine. These grassroots officials have rich grassroots administrative experience and agree with these measures of the cabinet. They naturally understand that the purpose of the cabinet to promote them is to allow them to implement these reform measures. Since they enjoy the interests, there are common interests and are also measures to do practical things for the people, so they are naturally very concerned about implementing them.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the reform, Shen Qing quickly suggested that Zhu Youzhai send several governors out to preside over the supervision of the water conservancy repair and baojia implementation work in various provinces.

"It's a good idea to send the governor, but who should I send?" Zhu Youchao asked Shen Qing. Shen Qing replied: "I think Li Jingbai, the director of the Ministry of Rites, can take on this position."

"Why?" Zhu Youxiao asked. He really had no impression of Li Jingbai. Naturally, he had to ask clearly.

"Li Jingbai was competent to serve as the prefect of the Central Committee. He served as the magistrate of Xiajin County. He made many achievements in his post, advising farming and studying, advocating education, promoting water conservancy, and promoting prosperity and prosperity. The people of Xiajin were grateful for the favors of Li County and built a temple for him. This person's background is relatively clean and can be used." Shen Qing replied.

Zhu Youxiao thought about it carefully and then agreed: "Then let this Li Jingbai! Let him govern the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Henan. In addition to repairing water conservancy and promoting Baojia, he also needs to provide timely relief to the affected people and coordinate the encirclement and suppression of bandits."

The appointment of Li Jingbai as the governor of the three provinces was not a threat to Zhu Youxiao in advance. Such a civil servant served as the governor of the three provinces was obviously unlikely to threaten the imperial power.

Governors from all walks of life in Gansu, Shaanxi and Henan Province are obviously mostly people who are busy waiting to die. Since this is the case, it would be good to simply appoint a governor of the three provinces to go there. It can also be regarded as escorting the grassroots officials promoted this time, so that once they have conflicts with those Shangguans who are mixed and waiting to die in the administrative process, there will be a place to appeal.

These three provinces are also areas with serious problems, especially Shaanxi. Secondly, Henan is all areas with more disasters.

Shaanxi is mainly in the Loess Plateau in northern Shaanxi, which has extremely poor disaster resistance. Moreover, there are many border troops in Yansui Town, northern Shaanxi, which are prone to turning into gunpowder barrels.

In Henan, there are many disasters in the Yellow River, and at the same time, locust plagues are frequent. It is just because it is located in the hinterland and is affected by a group of farmers. Unlike border troops, they usually cannot make trouble, but the lower-level people are obviously not having a good life.

The situation in Shanxi is much better. The people in Shanxi are more aware of grain storage and preparatory waste. They usually don’t want to eat a few more bites and hide them in large quantities in the cellar, which has stronger disaster resistance.

First, I will send a reliable governor to focus on sorting out the issues in Shaanxi, Henan and Gansu, which is still very useful for stabilizing the north.

For such considerations, Li Jingbai was soon appointed as the governor of the three provinces.

If a minister jumps to the governor of the three provinces and becomes the highest official of the three provinces, this phenomenon may only occur at this time the court under Zhu Youxiao’s control will appear.

Before Li Jingbai took office, Zhu Youxiao summoned him again with some concern and discussed in depth the issue of peace and security with Li Jingbai. What made Zhu Youxiao very pleased was that Li Jingbai had rich grassroots administrative experience. He said to Zhu Youxiao: "Report to Your Majesty, the method of peace and security can be divided into internal and external sources, expressing itself in relief and suppressing bandits. In order to avoid disaster victims causing local turmoil, and later in order to avoid bandits disrupting production. The inside is about living. If the people want to live in peace, it is nothing more than water conservancy and taxation. If the water conservancy can be smooth, there will be harvests for drought and flood, and the government will no longer charge violent taxes, and the people can live in peace."

"What about the fun of your work?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Uh...this is! The land rent is too heavy." Li Jingbai said tactfully, in fact, saying that the gap between the rich and the poor is too big, the rich are continuous, and the poor are not in a place to stand. People often cannot produce with peace of mind because their production activities cannot exchange for necessary social resources.

"I understand. My dear, I will go to the governor of the three provinces. I will send a thousand Beijing camps to listen to your call. The bandits in northern Shaanxi should pay the attention to the clearance." Zhu Youxiao said to Li Jingbai with satisfaction. Obviously, Li Jingbai is still relatively reliable.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Jingbai thanked him. He was still full of expectations for taking office this time. For an official like him, managing one side in an orderly manner will bring a great sense of accomplishment in his heart. This sense of accomplishment is more attractive than real money. This is a matter of values.

Officials of this era basically believe in that kind of thing, karma and retribution! Accumulate virtue and cultivate oneself! However, some people are willing to do it, while others are unwilling to do it.

There was Wang Yangming's "The Book of the Continents" by Wang Yangming, and in the late Ming Dynasty, there was the "The Book of the Continents of the Continents of the Four Lessons of the Continents of the Continents of Yuan Liaofan, which were all very awesome works. "The Book of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents", while "The Book of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the Continents of the

In addition to the reforms of northern provinces, the reforms of Northern Zhili have obviously not officially begun. However, starting from the first lunar month, Northern Zhili has entered a new climax of construction.

This construction project is road construction, and it is a large-scale road construction activity.

The main roads built are sand and gravel roads. The materials used are basically made of nearby materials, and slag and other things can be used to build roads.

The gravel road is enough to allow heavy carriages to pass through. The cost of laying stone slabs is too high, and the cement road does not seem to be very reliable.

So the road built this time was to first build a layer of Sanhe soil and then lay sand and gravel. Sanhe soil was not made of glutinous rice in the legend, but the effect of repeated compaction. If glutinous rice is used for Sanhe soil, the cost is simply terrifyingly high.

The road construction project of tens of millions of yuan immediately once again drove the economy of the entire Northern Zhili, creating a large number of jobs, and the living standards of ordinary people in Northern Zhili have been greatly improved.

Zhu Youxiao also quickly started the reform of Beizhili. (To be continued...)
