Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 61 Fight for power!

Politics is inherently high-end bargaining.

Compared with the gentry who pays for the mu, the gentry pays food as a errand

Returning consumption to the public is the most acceptable strategy for the cabinet.

The essence of the so-called return of consumption and envy to the public is to increase taxes. Could it be that local officials will not continue to search for money just because your court has returned the consumption and envy to the public?No, they will still search for money quickly.

If you raise a little tax today, the local dog officials will dare to increase it by [-]%.

Ye Xianggao's proposal to return consumption and envy to the public was intentional, and let this policy go to waste, and even arouse popular uprisings, thus forming a backlash.

When the time comes, who will carry the big black pot, not Zhang Haogu?
During the Zhengde period, Liu Jin also pondered about reforms, and finally made herself Ling Chi.

Do you really think you are Zhang Juzheng?

Zhang Haogu's plan to return to the public is bound to fail.

The reason is also very simple, Ye Xianggao knows exactly what these dog officials are.

However, what Ye Xianggao didn't expect was that Zhang Haogu actually applied a patch.

One is to raise money, and the other is to make up for it immediately!

In an instant, Ye Xianggao understood the strategy of the imperial court. Simply put, all future consumption and income will be supplemented by the Ministry of Households, and then the Ministry of Households will distribute the money to all officials.

One of the first problems to eliminate is the problem of random apportionment. However, the money still has to be given to civil and military officials, but how much and how to give depends on the court's mind.

In this way, the resistance is naturally much smaller.

To give a popular example, in the past, your salary was directly transferred to your card every month, but now the salary is transferred to your wife's card first, and then your wife will transfer it to you.

Although there may be a lot of points at the beginning, but after this?
It's not the court that has the final say.

The essence of returning consumption and envy to the public is to increase taxes, and the essence of raising a clean bank is to increase the salaries of civil and military officials, and instant compensation is to strictly prevent you from keeping an eye on whether you have increased the apportionment, and prevent you from playing the New Deal too big , and eventually backfired to the court.

Ye Xianggao is now more and more sure.

Emperor Tianqi's New Deal was most likely created by Zhang Haogu.

I know what a local dog official is, and Zhang Haogu knows it too.

The support Lianyin shuts up the mouths of you bastards, and the real-time compensation is to see if you dog officials continue to apportion.

If the apportionment is changed, the data will be killed if it is huge.

Return consumption to the public, raise money, and immediately make up for these three tricks. There is also a hidden new policy-normalized anti-corruption!

Although he is young, his methods are quite sophisticated, he doesn't look like a fledgling in the political arena, nor does he look like a veteran, but he really looks like Zhang Juzheng - the benefits he wants are not lost, but, yes From the bottom of my heart, I really want to change the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, this is just Ye Xianggao's wishful thinking.

Zhang Haogu's idea was simpler, since Daming was only a few days away anyway, he could make a fuss, and if he was successful, he would renew his life, and if he was not good enough, he would think about going home to rebel.

The three essential treasures for travelers are firmly imprinted in my mind.

It is impossible for him to devote himself to death like Zhang Juzheng.

Lao Tzu devoted himself to Daming and died, and Da Ming wanted to liquidate Lao Tzu. Is this something a human can do?
In short, Zhang Haogu's meaning is very obvious.

There is no need to be so anxious to pay for the income of the people, but the cabinet must agree to return the waste to the public, raise the clean bank, set up a statistics office, and make up for it in real time.

Especially the statistics office.

This is Zhang Haogu's desire to increase the authority of the Ministry of Households. Simply put, it is equivalent to the price bureau of later generations. It is necessary to count the prices of all major regions of the country to prevent the underlings from cheating.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of the country's territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries, and all financial matters. Naturally, prices are also in charge. However, the price statistics are not sent by the Ministry of Households to investigate, but are reported to the Ministry of Households by the local government.

Think about it, if civil and military officials dare to fool the emperor, do local officials dare to fool the Ministry of Household Affairs?
It's not impossible.

The main reason is that I can't trust these bastards.

The powers of the household department will be increased.

Zhang Haogu also had a fierce quarrel with Ye Xianggao. In short, both sides were bargaining. One thing to say, the influence of Daming's ministers in Zhu Youxiao's generation has been growing.

Immediately filling this policy must be approved by the cabinet, but Ye Xianggao wants to completely control this group of alternate officials, the reason is that these people must be under the control of the Ministry of Officials.

Let the Ministry of Officials choose alternate officials.

What Zhang Haogu meant was to set up a special investigation team, and simply merge this investigation team into his own statistical office, that is to say, they are all members of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

It is directly authorized by the emperor, and cannot be handled by the Ministry of Officials. If it is really handled by the Ministry of Officials, it is inevitable to blackmail this group of alternate officials.

In short, what Zhang Haogu meant was to set up a new stove, and let this group of alternate officials be directly responsible to the emperor. Ye Xianggao meant that the officials had to be in charge. Said to be a kind of destruction.

However, Zhang Haogu also understands that it is really impossible to let the official department manage it. Once it is really handed over to the official department, they will have a hundred ways to make instant supplies for you to complete a joke.

Of course, it is not impossible to hand it over to the Ministry of Officials.

Let Zhang Haogu come to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Otherwise, don't talk about it!
Obviously, it is impossible for Zhang Haogu to hold three ministers concurrently.

Ye Xianggao also talked tremblingly.

This bastard has a criminal record, so if he can't say it, he will do it.

Fortunately, Zhang Haogu did not hit anyone.

As long as everyone sits down to discuss policies, don't fucking say that I have a bad character or that my character is inferior.

If you dare to scold me, I will show you my poor character.

Sometimes Zhang Haogu felt that he was at a disadvantage.

He scolded the neighbor next door, these bastards always like to quote scriptures, beat around the bush, and scold themselves with all kinds of spring and autumn styles in a weird way.

The point is, I don't understand.

The number one scholar, the second-rank official of the imperial court, and the Minister of the Household Department, don't you understand when others scold you?Doesn't this show that there is a problem?
Therefore, once there is a quarrel, when someone gives an example, when they say that they are like something, Zhang Haogu will directly attack personally.

I don't know what you scolded me for, but if you scold me, I'll beat you straight away.

The most unlucky one was Yang Lian.

He always said something that Zhang Haogu couldn't understand in a weird way, who would he beat him?
At this moment, Ye Xianggao didn't say anything, and he didn't directly attack Zhang Haogu's character. Instead, he just talked about the matter.

In addition, Zhang Haogu still tried to find a way to transfer Zhang Ruitu, the ultimate tool man, to his side. Once someone started to say something he didn't understand, he would quietly ask Zhang Ruitu what the doggy meant, so that Zhang Ruitu translated for himself.

After Zhang Ruitu, there is Wang Zhijian.

Zhang Ruitu is the servant of the Ministry of Rites. Not long ago, Wang Zhijian was also promoted to be the servant of the household department to work with Zhang Haogu.

The quarrel between Zhang Haogu and Ye Xianggao was, in the final analysis, two words to seize power.

If this group of alternate officials is dominated by the Ministry of Officials, then even the members of the Ministry of Officials are about equal to those of the Donglin Party.

If a brand-new group was specially established, it would be equivalent to Zhang Haogu's people, who belonged to Zhang Haogu's party.

In short, both sides need to seize power around this point.

Zhang Haogu showed his super fighting power, young and energetic, and he squeezed his fists from time to time to deter him with force, and gained the upper hand during the negotiation process.

Although Lao Tzu's Confucian classics can't argue with you, but Lao Tzu has a louder voice and more energy than you, so I just bully you, a bad old man.

In the end, Ye Xianggao was defeated.

There is no way, once the stalemate is reached, Zhang Haogu spread his hands and said directly, then let’s not talk about it, you just let the emperor’s ancestral system to toss you slowly, if the cabinet is not obedient, then let Dagao take it easy Deal with it, and replace it with an obedient cabinet.

Ye Xianggao gritted his teeth, and then gave in.

The Ministry of Households took out a sum of money to support this group of alternate officials. For the time being, these alternate officials were temporarily incorporated into the newly established statistics department of the Ministry of Households.

That's the end of it.

After the negotiation was settled, Zhang Haogu immediately asked Wang Zhijian to write a memorial and submit it to the cabinet.
