I am the king of the dead

Chapter 531 Labor makes people free, work grants human rights

In fact, Zhu Qiyu likes people like Shi Pu very much. He doesn't talk much, works hard, and is busy all day long in order to build a new Ming Dynasty.

He hoped that people like Shi Pu could have a few complaints, but unfortunately, the group of craftsmen of Ming Dynasty represented by Shi Pu rarely seemed willing to speak out, and His Majesty took as much as he gave.

In fact, Zhu Qiyu was thinking wrong here. The main reason for not complaining is that the Emperor Daming gave too much!
"I remember that there is a stone inscription on Yashan, saying: Zhang Hongfan, the great general of Zhenguo, destroyed the Song Dynasty here."

"Civilization is not impossible to perish, just like today's Rome, past Tang and Song Dynasties, today are all ancient, and Hu Yuan entered the Central Plains." Zhu Qiyu opened his mouth to talk about the past, causing the officials in the Juxian Pavilion to fall into silence .

During the sea battle on Yashan, Song Prime Minister Lu Xiufu committed suicide by jumping into the sea with the young emperor on his back. Hundreds of thousands of people died together.

Since then, the Song Dynasty was destroyed, and Hu Yuan entered China for a hundred years and stole the artifact.

Even though Zhu Yuanzhang pinched his nose and recognized Hu Yuan's Zhengshuo, in Daming, the debate between Hua and Yi was still the mainstream. Yuan commensurate.

Zhu Qiyu then said: "At that time when the Song Dynasty died, the Chinese people had to go to these Hu people's homes to cut vegetables at home, because they didn't have kitchen knives at home. Under such hardships, our Ming Dynasty came into being."

"We haven't fully learned the historical lessons of the fall of the Song Dynasty. Now, Rome, which has been passed down for thousands of years, has come to an end, melting like snow in spring."

"Some people always say that our old Zhu's family is an upstart. This is true, and I will not deny it. But what about China? What about Daming? Is it also an upstart?"

"So, I hope everyone can forge ahead, even for the sake of Daming."

In this capital city where the emperor and ministers have been honored for thousands of years, these words seem strange, but this sentence was spread by the Confucian family, and many people agree with it from the bottom of their hearts.

"I would like to abide by the sacred instructions." Many courtiers trembled in shock, and no one has confronted the emperor recently. What His Majesty said is really outrageous!

Stopping offerings was a trend that brazenly existed from the beginning of Ming Dynasty to the end of Ming Dynasty.

How many people are afraid of this kind of social atmosphere, and when they do things in the court, they are timid. For example, everyone ridiculed and flattered Hu Min. No one even knew that Hu Changxiang, the son of Hu Min, was working in the Imperial Hospital. Hu Changxiang was Hu Min's only one. son.

Hu Changxiang felt that talking about "My Father of the Ministry of Rites" was a shameful thing.

Now Zhu Qiyu has given everyone a step up. He has changed his way of speaking. Since he can't shout this slogan for His Majesty, then for Daming, he won't lose his reputation, right?
Is Daming also an upstart?Would it be embarrassing to be a courtier of Daming?
"Let's start today's salt and iron meeting." Zhu Qiyu stopped thinking about the demise of Rome, but continued to discuss Daming's financial affairs.

Xia Heng, minister of Taipusi, is in charge of Ma Zheng.

He sat up straight and said, "Your Majesty, there are now 11 good horses in the court. Although it cannot be compared with the 60 horses in the Yongle period, the horse administration of the Ming Dynasty is gradually recovering."

"These 11 horses are all middle and high-grade horses. Even among the Hu people, they are used as war horses, mainly for the Beijing camp."

What Xia Heng was talking about was the restoration of the horse administration in the Ming Dynasty, not the restoration of the horse breeding orders in the Hongwu and Yongle years.

At that time, the population of Daming was small, and a lot of land could be used as pastures. However, as the population multiplied and increased, within the [-] mm rainfall line, there was no pasture for grazing in the Ming Dynasty.

The places suitable for grazing are now planted with crops.

Outside the [-]mm rainfall line, it is not suitable for farming, but it is suitable for grazing, so the Gong City in Xuanfu has become the most important source of horses for the Ming Dynasty to a large extent.

Of course, there are also military horse farms in Ming Dynasty, one is in Fengshengchuan Military Horse Farm, and the other is in Shaanxi Xingdusi. The scale of these two military horse farms is [-] horses.

Without horses, there can be no attack.

Daming's current horse administration is a mess, which is one of the important achievements of the 24-year prosperity of Wen and Wu.

Raw horses and stage horses are not included in the statistics of the imperial court.

But BMW, in the statistical category.

The stage horse ran for five years. If it was still alive, it would be kept in the stage and called BMW, and these BMWs were also counted.

Hu Wei looked around and said: "Your Majesty, the Khan of the Tatar tribe, Tuotuobuhua has recently reported that he wants to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and discuss the matter of the tribute market."

"Your Majesty, the opportunity has arrived."

What Hu Wei was talking about seemed to have nothing to do with Xia Heng and Ma Zheng, but in fact these two things were closely linked.

The opportunity Hu Wei mentioned was the almost cruel financial affairs policy of Ming Dynasty on the grassland.

Daming put money in the grassland, silver coins, Jingtai Tongbao, poured into the whole grassland like a tsunami, and the Tartar kings on the grassland exchanged their cattle and sheep for these exquisite coins instead of necessities such as tea, iron, salt, etc. .

Tutuobuhua, as the Khan of the Tatars, finally couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to enter the Ming Dynasty as a tribute.

At the beginning, Tuotuobuhua wanted the Emperor of Ming Dynasty to go outside Beigukou to discuss the alliance.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty was in troubled times, and Zhu Qiyu didn't want to cause trouble. The Tatar army was just outside the city. Zhu Qiyu ordered Yang Hong to let Fangtuobuhua withdraw his troops. Wala people.

Nowadays, Tuotuobuhua takes the initiative to pay tribute to the court.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and asked: "Let's wait for another three years before agreeing to his request to enter the customs as a tribute."

If you want to pay tribute, let you pay tribute?

In Zhu Qiyu's study room of Juxian Pavilion, there is a spiritual tablet, which is the token of the civil war in the civil castle, and the token of the soldiers who died in battle for this purpose, and it is also a gully in Zhu Qiyu's heart that cannot be healed.

He always remembered the humiliation of the siege at the beginning. He watched the recruits of Daming go out to fight amidst the people singing the red scarf song. He watched Yu Qian, Shi Heng and others personally lead the troops to charge and dismount to fight to the death.

Like a tortoise, he stayed in the tortoise shell formed by the soldiers and courtiers of the Ming Dynasty. Finally, when King Jili was the vanguard of the siege, he finally couldn't help himself and led someone to snatch King Jili's dragon banner.

He remembered the humiliation at the beginning, so he had to wait a little longer.

"Three years?" Jin Lian asked with wide-eyed surprise.

The grassland's financial system has completely collapsed, the people are in dire straits, and the border people are pitiful.

A Tatar woman can be married with half a bag of rice, but if she is willing to add half a bag of salt, she will be dead set.

Cooking white meat in a cowhide bag is a true portrayal of the grassland today.

Your Majesty is really too ruthless.

Wait for another three years, and such a tragedy will happen for another three years.

Human purgatory.

Yu Qian looked around, and immediately said: "I think it's okay to wait a little longer. Three years is not too much, and five years is not too little. Even if we continue to wait like this, ten years, 20 years, 50 years, it's okay." Not impossible."

"Right now, there are a lot of people fleeing from Tatar who have entered the farm law in the Jining and Hetao areas of the Ming Dynasty. If we stop setting fires on the grasslands at night and stop releasing silver coins in Gongshi, we have to appease these people."

"Secondly, it is not enough to boil the eagle and beat it. Today the Ming Dynasty is strong, and he is obedient. In the future, the Ming Dynasty will decline and fall, and the robbers of the other side. Now promise to get rid of the flowers and pay tribute to the court, and there will be great disasters in the future."

"For the long-term plan of the two clans, when there are no more swords and soldiers facing each other, we should wait."

Yu Qian is the leader of the civil servants, the Marquis of Wen'an, the minister of military meritorious service, and the spokesperson of the honored officials of the Ming Dynasty.

His attitude is the attitude of Jingying.

Yu Qian, who has always advised His Majesty the way of benevolence and forgiveness, still takes the way of Daren.

If Daming's heart softened at this time, when the Tatars regained their strength and Daming entered the sequence of autumn and winter, there would be another disturbance.

The greatest danger in the world is not natural disasters, but military disasters. Iron hoofs go south, people are devastated, people are displaced, people die in foreign lands, freeze to death on the roadside, when rituals collapse, bandits rise together, and people's livelihood withers.

In order to prevent another sword attack, wait a little longer, let the Tatars have a long memory, and prevent military disasters, it is Daren.

How to prevent military disasters?When the enemy is too weak to walk, you can prevent military disasters.

"Then wait a little longer." Hu Wei thought for a while and agreed with Yu Qian's words.

His original plan was that Honglu Temple would negotiate with Tatar King Tutuobuhua and give the officials grace, and Daming would establish countless official ranches in the Tatar pastures, which were the same in nature as official factories and directly belonged to the imperial court.

These official pastures are the nails that Ming buried in the tribes of Tatar.

Both Yu Qian and His Majesty thought it was okay to wait, and Hu Wei did not object. Now that the negotiations start, His Majesty can leave a reputation of benevolence and righteousness. Since His Majesty does not want this good reputation, he will not work hard in this useless direction.

Hu Wei picked up his old business and said with a smile: "Your Majesty treats everyone equally. The Ming Dynasty uses silver coins, and the Tatars also use silver coins; the Ming Dynasty uses Jingtai Tongbao, and the Tatars also use Jingtai Tongbao; Your Majesty, as the Holy Son of Heaven, unifies the world." Your majesty, this is His Majesty's generosity."

Your Majesty is lenient, Your Majesty is loving, and Your Majesty can do no wrong.

Li Binyan and the others looked at Hu Wei with dumbstruck eyes. Everyone understood what Daming's economic policy on the grassland had turned into.
However, what Hu Shangshu said was so reasonable that he could not refute it.

Discussing etiquette with Minister of Rites is asking for humiliation.

Wang Hu, a doctor in the Du branch, glanced at Zhang Feng, his supervisor, and said helplessly: "The Labor Insurance Bureau has calculated all the accounts of last year and sent them to Tai'an Palace. Last year, the Labor Insurance Bureau coordinated and compensated nearly 72 people. Ten thousand silver coins."

"Among them, 240 were mediated, [-] were ordered to rectify, and more than [-] were related to security."

Labor Insurance Bureau is the abbreviation of labor protection.

This involves a topic of financial affairs that Zhu Qiyu has always wanted to talk about, but has never discussed in general, distribution.

The distribution method determines the social system, and the social system is determined by the distribution method.

Zhu Qiyu has not discussed too much in this regard, it's not that there is no opportunity, but the timing is not ripe, but since Wang Hu mentioned this matter today, Zhu Qiyu intends to talk about it.

He thought carefully for a while and said, "Wang Mang, at the beginning we wanted to implement the well field system. The ancients used three hundred steps as a distance, and it was called well field."

"The well field system is not what Fang Xiaoru said. The land is owned by the public, but privately owned. "Gu Liang Biography" says: There are [-] mu of well fields, and one public land.

"The tribute, assistance, and thoroughness of Jingtian are all owned by the lord, which has the typical characteristics of distribution according to capital."

Capital distributed according to capital is the meaning of capital of production means.

"In addition to distribution according to salary, the current Ming Dynasty also has distribution according to work. Work points are calculated according to the amount of labor, and then the labor results produced by the labor are distributed."

"Distribution according to work is actually not fair." Zhu Qiyu released a violent theory that distribution according to work is unfair.

Wu Jingman, the head of the Imperial Academy, asked suspiciously: "Distribution according to work is not fair?!"

The farm method adopts distribution according to work and calculating work points, which is one of the achievements of bypassing degrees. Even so, is it unfair?

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "Wu Zhangyuan, I asked you a question back then. Do you remember your answer if a person's knowledge and technology count as a person's fixed assets, current assets, or reserved assets?"

Wu Jing nodded and said: "Remember, one's knowledge and skills are one's fixed assets. Studying in private schools, government schools, and social schools is also an investment in oneself, which is the growth of personal fixed assets."

Zhu Qiyu looked at Wu Jing and said, "Of course."

Wu Jing frowned, and after thinking for a long time, he relaxed his brows.

The premise of distribution according to work is the division of labor. As long as there is division of labor, there will inevitably be differences between types of work, so the distribution of technical posts and management posts will be much stronger than that of poor coolies.

Technical posts and management posts are naturally due to their own fixed assets.

Therefore, distribution according to work is essentially a way of distributing one's own fixed assets.

Wu Jing understood why His Majesty said that distribution according to work is relatively fair.

Zhu Qiyu asked in memory: "Wang Shangshu, if there is no bureaucracy in this world, what would the officialdom look like?"

"Isn't that a direct mess?" Wang Zhi replied immediately.

The bureaucratic system of officials has been the tradition of the Central Plains Dynasty since ancient times. Although Wang Zhi didn't know why His Majesty asked this question, he answered it immediately.

Wang Zhi couldn't even imagine a Ming Dynasty without bureaucracy, even if it wasn't a subjugated country.

When Zhu Qiyu asked, he just set up questions, and he already had the answer in his heart.

"Therefore, distribution according to work will also have layers of management. Then collective organizations such as officialdom and workshops, bureaucracy will inevitably emerge as the times require. Then the system of distribution according to work is inherently expropriating."

"So distribution according to work is not absolutely fair."

Zhu Qiyu's words caused a lot of discussion among the officials. As long as there is a bureaucracy, there must be top-down deprivation. This is beyond dispute.

There are four grades and sixteen levels of craftsmen, and the basic labor remuneration for each level is different. If there is a bureaucracy, there will inevitably be deprivation.

"Governor Li, let me ask you again, you have handled the case of abnormal female households with Li Xian in Jiangnan. Some of these abnormal female households are only five or six years old, and they have no productive capacity. What is the social root cause of the abnormal female households? "Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Binyan and talked about the big case of abnormal female households.

To this day, this case is still being handled, and the tragic situation of those women who were sent to the capital to die is shocking.

"Because they have no place to work, no labor, and naturally no fruits of labor." Li Binyan answered this question after serious thinking.

What is the reason for the existence of abnormal female households?
"Work makes people free, and work bestows human rights." Zhu Qiyu said helplessly: "If distribution is based on work, those who have lost their labor force and those who have no labor force will starve to death."

"As far as I know, many veterans of the Beijing camp were wounded on the battlefield. They threw their heads and blood for Ming Dynasty, regardless of life and death, and did not care about their own lives. As a result, they lost their ability to work, so do they also need to be distributed according to their work?"

"I can't be cold-blooded and ruthless, because they died for me, so I raised these wounded veterans. Before the Chinese New Year, I went to Daxing specially."

Daxing County is a gathering place for Ye Bu Shou’s family members to move inland. Zhu Qiyu goes there every year to visit and condolences to Ye Bu Shou’s family members. There are a lot of widows there. Every time Zhu Qi Yu goes, he will stay for a long time to listen to their stories .

Before Chen Yi returned to Beijing from Zhang Qiu's flood control, he also accompanied the magistrate of Daxing County once.

Jiang Yuan looked thoughtful, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "I heard that Roman soldiers fought on the battlefield. After returning home, not only did their own homes change owners, but if they survived by luck, some of them would starve to death when they returned home injured."

"So their army, after capturing the city, will start looting the local area, and they can earn a little bit."

"Since then, the Romans lost their intention to join the army, and even fled every time they fought, and because of poor military discipline and random looting, the conflict between Rome and the barbarians deepened."

"The Romans lost their shield and sword, and Rome lost its people who were loyal to it."

Zhu Qiyu thought of the end of the Ming Dynasty, when Li Zicheng rebelled for more than ten years, he was always a rogue, he was beaten by Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, and Lu Xiangsheng, and he was always in trouble.

In the ninth year of Chongzhen, a severe drought occurred in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia region. The Ming court had been in arrears of payment since the Wanli period. This coupled with the severe drought caused the low-level military officers on the three sides to join the camp of the rebel army.

Li Zicheng's strength is like riding a rocket, straight to the blue sky.

If the food and salary are enough, the gods will be broken.

Jin Lian asked in confusion: "Then, Your Majesty, what distribution system is fair? What distribution system is reasonable?"

　Recommend a book, "I Am a Good Man in the Red Mansion",
　　Introduction: Thank you for the invitation, I have traveled through time, and I just want to live a normal life, but the hero will worship me when he sees me.

　　Wu Song: My brother is the most righteous Bo Yuntian I have ever seen;
