The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 191 Mr. Ye is more than ten thousand times more noble than the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang is a black-hearted boss!

In Ye Qing's playful gaze, although Mr. Guo in front of him did not appear to be angry, the rise and fall of his chest became particularly obvious.

If he only wore a wide robe and long sleeves, it wouldn't look very obvious. The key is that he is now wearing a tailor-made purple flower hood.

The ups and downs of the armor are really visible to the naked eye!
There are such fluctuations, either because you have exercised too much, or because the air in your chest is too much!
It was obvious that Mr. Guo, who was a huge fan of Zhu Yuanzhang, was extremely angry in his chest because of Ye Qing's words.

Looking at this scene, the amusement in Ye Qing's eyes became even stronger than before.

This is the effect he wants, as long as he doesn't get angry to death, as long as he keeps Mr. Guo alive and goes back to Beijing to accuse him of Ye Qing's black case.

Although compared with the crime of "every man is not guilty, but the crime of having a jade" he is planning, and the crime of "gluttony on agricultural taxes" that he will definitely commit after the war, this crime of "offending the power of God" is not a big crime. .

But it’s still the old saying, there are too many sins to bear, and the fly is still flesh no matter how small it is!

As long as it can offend Zhu Yuanzhang, he will definitely do whatever comes to his mind!
Anyway, just one sentence, either he will make Zhu Yuanzhang angry to death, or Zhu Yuanzhang will kill him!

While Ye Qing was making such calculations, Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, which was almost exploding with rage, was not idle.

"Others spend money to find happiness, but you are spending money to find death!"

"If I hadn't promised you to do a good job with this general, I would have done it now."

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed his breath again.

Because he knew that even if he gave up his job, he would only have to wait until after the war to settle the accounts with Ye Qing.

It is easy to kill a weak scholar, but it is a big problem to kill this scholar and mess up the morale of the military and the people.

After Zhu Yuanzhang recovered, although he was not ready to quarrel now, he could not let himself be wronged.

He must have a good break with Ye Qing!
He must teach Ye Qing well that he cannot solve everything with money!
Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly: "Master Ye, what you said is wrong. Why does Your Majesty want the horse to run away again and not let the horse eat grass?"

"Let's not talk about the merits and honors of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty has also given the current officials of the Ming Dynasty a salary that is enough for people to have no worries about food and clothing!"

"Since you can eat the emperor's salary, you must be loyal to the emperor!"

"The same goes for our followers. We gave them enough monthly money. Now that we are the general of Yanmen County, it is right for them to arrest people!"

"Besides, with their martial arts skills, wouldn't it be easy to catch a few people?"

"You give them 150 taels of gold for a simple effort. You are nurturing their greed to reward them for their work. Once they develop this habit, how can they get away with it?"

"Young people, you can't just focus on money!"

"Young people, you must first speak of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness!"

Listening to these remarks, Ye Qing suddenly remembered his previous life in the city before he activated the golden finger and started reincarnation for ten lives.

At that time, he graduated from an ordinary university and his professional salary was very average, so he became one of the many "[-] workers" who were cruelly squeezed by capital.

He still remembers what his boss has said to them for a long time: "It's for your own good that I don't offer you high wages. Young people, don't focus on money!"

"The salary is too high, which is not conducive to the struggle of you young people. I will lower the salary so that you young people will continue to struggle and truly realize the value of life. You will thank me in the future!"

"When you get my salary, you have to do things for me, not just things within the scope of your responsibilities, but everything I ask you to do. You must be on 24 hours a day. It's a good thing for young people to do more!"

"You already know this skill. If you know it, you should work overtime to help. Are you talking about overtime pay?"

"."

Ye Qing thought of the disgusting words said by those black-hearted bosses in his previous life, and when he looked at the big boss of the Royal Merchant in front of him, he felt that all bosses were virtuous.

Although these remarks from the boss are hundreds of years apart, except for the different expressions, they all have the same meaning.

In short, it's just a sentence: 'I want you to be like a cow or a horse, but I don't want to give you too much treatment. Not only can you not blame me, you also have to thank me.'

This is what Mr. Guo is like!
Master Guo’s boss, Zhu Yuanzhang, is even more of a typical black-hearted boss!

When he thought of this, Ye Qing suddenly became serious.

This time, he was not only seeking death from Zhu Yuanzhang through Mr. Guo, who was a part-time imperial envoy, but he was also helping all the workers in the world to give the black-hearted boss a resounding slap!

After Ye Qing came up with such a plan, he firmly grasped the shoulders of Mr. Guo in front of him and helped him stand upright: "Mr. Guo, stand still!"

"What are you doing?"

Ye Qing smiled lightly and said: "They say you should stand at attention when you are being beaten. I am asking you to stand at attention and receive a lesson!"

Before the wide-eyed Zhu Yuanzhang could get angry, Ye Qing immediately educated him: "I will tell you what is ideal and what is reality."

"The ideal is, when I come to the human world, I want to shine brightly!"

"The reality is, who knows what people in the world are like, just for a few taels of silver!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this sentence, although his anger did not diminish, he also felt that it was somewhat interesting.

Yes!

How many people inspired to become Kunpeng when they were young, but ended up heartbroken over a few taels of silver. If their family had had those few taels of silver, he probably wouldn't have been able to sit on the throne.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was deep in thought, Ye Qing put his hands behind his back and said: "It is difficult for people to live in this world without money. Buying clothes requires money, buying food requires money, seeing a doctor and taking medicine requires money. Even if you don't have money, You are not qualified to wipe your butt with straw paper!" "Mr. Guo, am I right?"

Because this sentence was said by Ye Qing, he instinctively wanted to say it was wrong, but as far as this sentence was concerned, it was absolutely right.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Yes!"

After Ye Qing nodded, he continued to teach: "I ask you again, why do all the officials in the world study so hard?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even think about it and replied directly: "Of course I am loyal to the emperor, work for the benefit of the people, and gain a good reputation for myself after death!"

"It's a pity that there are so many corrupt officials in the world, but honest officials are as rare as a phoenix!"

Ye Qing did not want to scold him for being naive, but continued to ask: "Then why are there so many corrupt officials in the world, but so few honest officials?"

"This"

When Ye Qing saw that Mr. Guo couldn't explain it in front of him, he didn't continue to hold it in his mind and directly gave him a generous lesson: "Because you can't even understand why the world's elite study!"

"I'm here to tell you that among a hundred scholars, at most one person only wants to serve the emperor, benefit the people, and gain a posthumous name for himself."

"The thoughts of 99 people are to return home in fine clothes and to live a better life for themselves and their family."

“If you work as a farmer digging the fields and you can eat meat once a year, then studying hard to gain fame is just so you can eat meat every day.”

"Eating meat every day is a bit exaggerated. Eating meat three times a month is always necessary!"

"Being an official has to do so many things, use so much brain, and bear so many responsibilities, but you can't eat meat three times a month, and your life is even worse than that of farmers."

"Are you willing to be this official?"

"Of a hundred people, only one is willing to be a saint, but there are absolutely 99 lay people who are not willing to be!"

"You risk being beheaded by the emperor to become an official, but your life is worse than that of a farmer digging the ground. You have to study hard for ten years and have a headache and thorns in your buttocks?"

"You are a businessman. Tell me, are you so stupid? Do you want to do this loss-making business?"

"Instead of doing this, why not dig the ground at home?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard these words, he still instinctively wanted to dissent from Ye Qing, but he immediately swallowed the words when they came to his lips, because he really had no way to refute.

After Ye Qing met Mr. Guo in front of him and agreed, he continued: "So, whether you, the boss, treats the people below you, or the emperor treats the officials below, you can't just talk about ideals, you have to talk about reality."

“Only when the people doing things have enough food can they have the strength to do things!”

"People who are doing things don't have enough to eat, so they will naturally find ways to make themselves full while doing things!"

Zhu Yuanzhang still didn't speak, but he did take in these words.

He began to consider whether the salary of officials other than the nobility should be appropriately increased. After all, the salary of the Ming Dynasty was indeed the lowest in the history of the dynasty.

The reason why he set such a low salary was mainly because the current national strength was not enough to provide the high salary of the Fu Song Dynasty.

At the same time, he also wanted to promote the integrity and simplicity of officials through low salaries, so as to achieve the effect of low salaries producing good officials.

But I never expected that it would lead to a situation where "corrupt officials are killed all the time, and the spring breeze will bring them back to life".

Thinking of this, he immediately began to reflect seriously!

And at this moment,
Ye Qing saw Mr. Guo frowning and said nothing, knowing that he had listened to what he said.

Therefore, after the class education is over, the official start of slapping the face of the evil boss on behalf of the workers all over the world.

"Greed and desire are human nature!"

"Anything that is divorced from human nature is just empty talk that we take for granted!"

"I can freely admit that I am such a greedy, lustful, vulgar, vulgar person, but I, as a person, am more than ten thousand times more noble than you black-hearted bosses!"

"I, a seventh-grade county magistrate, am a million times more noble than His Majesty the Emperor!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately stopped reflecting because he was too angry to think.

Yes,

What Ye Qing said before was all right, and he also listened to it.

But at most, we can only say that Zhu Yuanzhang did bad things with good intentions. How can we say that he, a county magistrate who was greedy for money and lust, was nobler than an emperor who got up early and was greedy for work?
A million times more noble?
This is not the fault of the following, this is simply stepping on the emperor's face!
If he, Ye Qing, doesn't tell the truth, this matter will definitely not go through!
In the eyes of everyone present,

Mr. Guo, who was wearing armor, could not see any anger in his body. His expression was very calm, which could be said to be as calm as water.

But they didn't know that this was the sign that the Emperor, who bore the title of Mr. Guo, really had murderous intentions.

As long as Ye Qing refuses to convince him, after this battle is over, he, Ye Qing, will not even have the chance to interfere with the agricultural tax.

"Master Ye, please enlighten me!"

"We would like to hear how you, a greedy and lustful county magistrate, are a hundred times more noble than His Majesty the Emperor?"
