Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 285 Benefits
There are two sets of rules in the Ming Dynasty. One is on the surface. It is beautiful and positive, and it is widely publicized by the government.

Just like Liaodong, which experienced the baptism of war. Although the Liaozuo area was destroyed by the war, countless soldiers and civilians were killed and injured, and people fled everywhere in southern and western Liaoning. Only those who have experienced it know best what will happen during this period. However, in Under the halo of Liao Zuo's victory, all these sufferings were covered up.

In the past, the people in the capital and the capital would inevitably panic due to the influence of the Liao Affairs Bureau. However, with the widespread spread of Liao Zuo's victory, confidence returned again, and the people in the capital and the capital regained their vitality, and business exchanges became closer. This is the boosting effect on a large scale.

Everything seems to be getting better.

But has Liaodong’s suffering been resolved?
Is there no suffering in the capital and Gyeonggi?
In addition to the above-mentioned places, what experiences did we experience in other places in the Ming Dynasty, such as the hinterland of the Central Plains, such as the southeastern zone, such as the southwest border, such as the northwest plateau, are they really as good as what Yousi reported?
So the other set of rules is practical. People's hearts are like a steelyard. Good is good and bad is bad. This cannot be mixed with any false things.

"Brother, this is really strange."

Zhu Youjian stopped and looked back and forth, frowning slightly, "As we walked along, I noticed that there seemed to be no beggars on the street. Last time I went out with my brother, there were many beggars in the streets of Nancheng. I I still remember that there are many poor people with no fixed homes in the suburbs of Beijing."

"They were all recruited by the recruiters of Shuntian Government Office."

Zhu Youxiao clapped his hands, saw a teahouse in front of him, and walked towards the teahouse, "If you want to maintain good public security in the capital, you must control the idle groups. I had discussed this matter with Sun Chuanting, and also raised it with the young master. After this matter, let them do a good job in division of labor and coordination, and gather all the beggars, poor people and other groups under the rule of the capital. At this time, they should disperse and work in various places."

"I see."

Zhu Youjian nodded and said, but did not ask anything else. In his understanding, if he could work, he could fill his stomach, and if he was lucky, he could even get a profitable job.

The only thing Zhu Youjian didn't know was that the beggars and poor people in various places inside and outside the capital were gone. But at the same time, there were also the local ruffians. There were too many scandalous things mixed in with them, such as raking in prostitutes and loan sharking. Stealing, killing, abducting and selling women, etc. Even during the screening and examination, many beggars and poor people were found to be accomplices.

If the matter ends at this point, Zhu Youxiao will continue to talk according to what Zhu Youjian asked, but the matter is very complicated.

For example, the gangsters who were arrested were all young minions with no background. The gangsters with a little background ran away after hearing the news very early.

For example, among those who are willing to be accomplices, some of them are still victims. There are even many people who are still burdened with great grievances and have nowhere to redress their grievances. In order to survive, they finally embark on this path.

For example, during the investigation, some clues were found that led directly to Shuntian Government Office, Liangyi Guojing County, Wucheng Military and Horse Division and other government agencies. The complexity of the case and the outrageous things made Shuntian Government Yin Sun Chuanting had a headache...

The various situations that Zhu Youxiao knew made him deeply aware of the suffering of the lower class. This was still under the feet of the emperor, and it was only limited to the capital. So many things could happen, and what would happen in places far away from the capital? What happens?

Zhu Youxiao didn't dare to think about it further.

I can't think about it.

There are scenes of cannibalism everywhere, and as the great emperor of tomorrow, there is no other good way to do it except to solve it slowly.

Because of official corruption and endless party fighting, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was seriously corrupted, and the trend of bullying the superiors and suppressing the subordinates was prevalent. Zhu Youxiao was able to introduce a series of policies. The original intention was to solve practical problems and reduce the burden on the bottom. But the key to the problem was to think To do these things, you still need to rely on people to do them.

By whom?

Rely on those officials?

I'm afraid that if we do this, no matter how good the policy is, it will eventually turn into a bad government that harms the people. Faced with this reality, Zhu Youxiao would rather narrow the scope than make any openings to the local government.

Now the only thing Zhu Youxiao hopes for is to cultivate a group of young officials based on his strategy of governing and developing Beizhili. Taking advantage of their short time to enter the official career, he can let them do more things and eliminate problems. solve the real problem.

As for whether anyone will choose to be complicit in this process, this is something Zhu Youxiao cannot predict.

What Zhu Youxiao can do is to continue to solve the problem while maintaining a strict investigation of officialdom. As the old saying goes, don't call it discovered. As long as you are discovered, you will be arrested, your home will be ransacked, and your head will be chopped off. It is inevitable, and even if the circumstances are serious, then peeling off the skin and replacing the grass, and strictly rectifying the officialdom is the only right way.

"Masters, what would you like to drink?"

Walking into this teahouse, the waiter saw a few people walking in. The two leaders were very young and looked like they were children of a wealthy family. He immediately stepped forward with a smile. "Prepare some pastries and snacks."

Luo Sigong, who had been silent all the time, stepped forward to stop the waiter, frowning slightly and said: "We have some tea leaves with us. Let's iron some tea sets."

"Brother, I have a question."

While Luo Sigong was busy with these things, Zhu Youjian followed Zhu Youxiao and walked towards the tea table by the window, "Since the capital has done so many preferential policies, why not choose to implement them in other places as well?"

The teahouse was very lively. Since Zhu Youxiao and his entourage came in with few people, they did not attract much attention. These days, it is normal for children from rich families to go out with their entourage.

"Huizheng?"

Zhu Youxiao put down the bamboo fan he was holding, lifted up his robe and sat on the wooden stool that Han Zanzhou had wiped. He looked at Zhu Youjian and said, "You can be called Huizheng in the capital, but it won't necessarily be called Huizheng in other places."

"Why did brother say that?"

Zhu Youjian said a little doubtfully.

"As far as I know, Shuntian Prefecture is clearly doing a lot of major work in various places inside and outside the capital."

Zhu Youxiao said leisurely: "It's like cleaning and widening the moat, repairing the walls of the capital, repairing the Tonghui River in sections, repairing the streets in Nancheng, etc."

"It's just that there is a premise for the above. The money is raised by the government itself, and no fees are allocated to the local government. The Shuntian government office is indeed doing things, and Sun Chuanting, the Shuntian government official, is indeed responsible."

"So many people gather in the capital city. Through their hard work, they can not only eat two full meals a day, but also receive a batch of food stamps on a monthly basis."

"Food stamps?"

Zhu Youjian frowned slightly.

"Yes, food stamps."

Zhu Youxiao said with determination in his eyes: "The purpose of Shuntian Prefecture issuing food stamps is to avoid embezzlement, corruption and other phenomena. The food stamps issued can be collected directly from the convenience community."

"Can it still be like this?"

Zhu Youjian said in surprise.

In a special period, we must have special policies. If we want to develop the "Greater Capital Strategy" concept and develop Beizhili, Zhu Youxiao must solve the corruption problem and also take into account overall planning, coordination, distribution, and food preparation. and many other matters.

After all, if you want to build an intensive handmade manufacturing industry chain and build infrastructure such as water conservancy and roads, you will inevitably gather a large number of people. With so many off-the-job groups scattered in various places, it is definitely not possible to rely on conscription of corvee. Although it can save a lot of expenses, but There are also many hidden dangers.

Zhu Youxiao never wanted to spend countless efforts and ruin a large-scale construction with a huge amount of gold and silver, only to be destroyed by a group of people who accumulated countless grievances. That would be too unworthy.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao's idea is to adopt a work-for-relief transition strategy. First, gather people together and let them work in different places. When they adapt to this model, they will continue to make adjustments and clarify the settlement of bills. Wages were paid mainly in the form of food stamps in the early stage, and in the later period they were mainly paid in banknotes, which were paid to Convenient Society and Huahui Bank respectively. At that time, all you had to do was to pay with the check.

Once this overall context has been clarified, and the specific processes and frameworks have been summarized and clarified, a number of new occupations will appear in Beizhili in the future, and some industries will be derived along the way.

However, as the above-mentioned things are carried out in an orderly manner, a serious challenge will inevitably arise, that is, the problem of food supply security in the northern Zhili border. For this reason, Zhu Youxiao must find a way to solve it, and cannot pin his hopes on one point. He must open up There are multiple grain supply and transportation channels, otherwise once there is a grain shortage in Beizhili, it will be a joke in the end in terms of the best strategic concept.

Even if it is an intensive handmade manufacturing industry, if it wants to nurture the Ming Dynasty under the small-scale peasant economy, it is by no means as simple as lip service and lip service. Any problem in any link may cause irreparable damage!
