Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 332 Voting Posts
After finishing the glass workshop, it can be considered as a temporary solution to the problem of capital turnover in the Ordnance Institute. Liu Hongjian felt a little more at ease.

In the next few days, Liu Hongjian excused himself to study wedding etiquette at home, and spent every day in the Duke's mansion with his two wives.

Although Sun Xiuxiu gave birth to Yang Xue and became pregnant, Liu Hongjian always found a way to get them to help him solve his personal problems.

In his previous life, he was a student who had never even held a girl's hand, so how could he know what sex in bed is.

Now that you have tasted all the spring colors in the world, you will know the true qualities of a hero.

Alas, there is no way, it is the time when he is young and energetic, and he doesn't want to make mistakes in the red light district!

It was late that day, Liu Hongjian was in the study, already thinking about where to sleep tonight, when suddenly the housekeeper Niu Danian came to report.

It is said that an adult who claimed to be surnamed Han came to visit and asked if he had seen him.

Liu Hongjian muttered, we have always been generous in the imperial court, and those civil servants looked like gods hiding from the plague when they saw me.

What's the matter, is there something you can't think of?Come up by yourself?
"Bring him to the study!" Liu Hongjian told Niu Danian.

Forget about him, if he doesn't look like he's shameful, these rotten scholars.

A moment later, there was the sound of walking outside the study, and an old man opened the curtain and came in.

"My lord, Han Yu, the censor of Youqian Capital of the Inspectorate, has seen your lord!" The man came in and bowed to salute.

What the hell?Inspectorate?Why did the keyboard man come to him?Do you still feel that he has been treated lightly?

A lot of question marks appeared on Liu Hongjian's head.

"Your name is Han Yu? Why does it sound so familiar to me?"

"My lord, the lower official's name is indeed Han Yu! It's just Lush Yu, not the one from the Tang Dynasty!" Standing in front of the hall, this man also looked embarrassed.

It was the first time for him to visit others without even giving up a seat, and now it was embarrassing.

"Well, Mr. Han came to look for this officer late at night, why is it?

Oh, sit down, sit down wherever you want, you're welcome! Seeing that the old man didn't seem to be spraying him, but was still standing there stupidly, Liu Hongjian reminded.

In order to increase the brightness of the light in the room, Liu Hongjian lit a total of six candles, one, two, three, and four, in the study, illuminating the whole room brightly.

Anyway, these candles don't cost money, and he got them from Uncle Chongzhen.

This is Han Yu, about 60 years old, dressed in a gray robe, tall and thin, and looks exceptionally capable.

"Your Excellency is now an extremely powerful official, and plays a very important role in Daming. It is no exaggeration to say that your every move affects the well-being of the entire Daming.

Therefore, I want to come here to ask you how your lord plans to help His Majesty rectify Daming! "Having said this, Han Yu's eyes lit up.

Although Han Yu is in the Procuratorate, he is not as pedantic and narrow-minded as his fellow censors around him. Although he is over sixty and most of his hair is gray, his enthusiasm for fame and fortune has not diminished at all.

The young man in front of him now is a red and purple figure in front of His Majesty, and he has long wanted to make friends.

However, not only his official position is low, but his status as a censor has brought the two of them to opposite sides.

"Hey, it seems that he is still a censor who cares about the country and the people, so rare!" Liu Hongjian became interested in this old censor.

"Then tell me how to remedy the current situation of Ming Dynasty?" The servant brought tea, and Liu Hongjian signaled Han Yu to use the tea, and by the way, led an army.

Where did you come from, you let the Duke of the country talk about good policies for governing the country, and the Duke of the country has to say it?Isn't that embarrassing?
What's more, he doesn't know what is a good strategy for governing the country.

"The lower officials think that Ming Dynasty's bad government can be summed up in sixteen words!" This Han Yu was not polite, he knew that if he wanted to join the sect, he must have the ability to show it.

"Oh? Which sixteen words?" Liu Hongjian basically seldom had contact with the ministers in the court, and usually he would directly talk to Chongzhen when he had any ideas.

"The taxation is disordered, the land is annexed, the clan is complicated, and the tail is too big." Han Yu's voice is calm. If these words are spread outside, his colleagues will probably say that he is shocking.

But this is in An Guogong's mansion, if it is about shocking the world, the young people in front of him will only be worse than him.

Liu Hongjian stroked his chin that had just stubbled out, pondering over what the old man in front of him said.

The disorder of taxation means that the court puts the focus of taxation on the people, not on the merchants?Well, that's a pretty good point.

Not to mention land annexation, just look at why the peasant army rebelled. The common people have no land, and you still go to collect taxes from others.
What the hell is this complex clan?Liu Hongjian was a little puzzled.

"Well, the first two sentences are quite interesting, what's the explanation for the last two sentences?" Asking without shame has always been a rare virtue in Liu Hongjian.

"My lord, the Ming Dynasty has been passed down for nearly 300 years. Do you know how many clan members there are in the Ming Dynasty?" Han Yu asked back.

Liu Hongjian shook his head like a rattle.

"My lord, there are now more than 32 royal family members in Ming Dynasty!" Han Yu's voice trembled with excitement when he said this.

Perhaps Comrade Zhu Chongba suffered too much when he was young. While hating corrupt officials, he gave special preferential treatment to his children and grandchildren.

The Ming Zu system stipulated that the prince would receive [-] shi annually, the county king would receive [-] shi, and the general of Zhenguo would receive [-] shi. By analogy, the lowest Fengguo lieutenant also received [-] shi.

And an ordinary person who studied hard for ten years, passed the entrance examination and became a county magistrate of the seventh rank, and his annual salary was only ninety shi, a typical era of fighting for fathers!

At the beginning of the Hongwu Dynasty, there were 58 members of the clan, but I didn't think it was a big deal.

But these clans can neither be engaged in scholastic, agricultural, industrial, commercial, nor official and military. The only thing they can do is to marry a wife and have children!

It is said that some vassal kings even compared each other to see who had more sons. King Qingcheng Zhu Jixuan alone gave birth to [-] sons, not counting daughters.

From the moment these sons were born, the Ming court will start to distribute their salaries. Although all sons except the eldest son will be demoted, there are too many people!

In addition, in addition to the high salary for free, the court allocates money for marriage, building a house, dependents, and funerals without spending wages. Isn't it too cool?
So much so that in the financial expenditure of the imperial court in the late Ming Dynasty, only members of the clan accounted for one-third...

"There are so many..." After listening to Han Yu's explanation, Liu Hongjian had a deep understanding of Uncle Zhu's "big family".

It turned out that part of the reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty was that he was eaten to death by his own descendants. I wonder if Comrade Zhu Zhongba knew it and would regret it...

"Well, according to what you said, it made me stand up, but..." Liu Hongjian and Han Yu looked at each other, as if they could see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

That's right, this is a family matter of the old Zhu's family, it's not easy to handle!

"My lord is not sticking to one pattern, but he hits the nail on the head. He has brought Daming back to life in the past year. He is really a great talent in managing the world. I came here to vote for the name, hoping to help my lord in the same boat and tide over the difficulties.

I also hope that the adults can give me this opportunity! Seeing Liu Hongjian pondering, Han Yu stood up and saluted again, waiting for Liu Hongjian's reply.
