Win the Ding 1617

"Brother Hong, Brother Hong! When will the regulations be implemented? I can hand over the money and food as soon as possible?!"

Hong Yilin was very busy here, while Huzai and others over there were still chasing after his ass to ask about money and food.

"He Dianshi, please, carefully copy their money, grain and tax figures, affix them with the county's customs seal, and hand them over to them. If their property and fields do not increase in the future, they will pay taxes according to this figure."

"Brother Hong! It's not enough just to stamp the seal of Dongguan County! Your work team's customs defense must also be stamped! That's how it counts!"

Everyone watching this scene couldn't help but smile bitterly. Usually, there is a special term for collecting grain and taxes, "reminder." It means that if you don't urge these taxes, no one is willing to pay them in full and on time.

Everything here was soon reported to Guangzhou by Hong Yilin, who was temporarily in Kuo County.

However, the same incidents of agricultural payment and tax resistance are spreading and playing out in different forms in various parts of the Pearl River Delta.

It can be said that Hong Yilin's report came at the right time.

"Decree! In the name of the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, the official document is issued. The former magistrate of Dongguan, Wang, escaped with excuses in advance. He seems to be suspected of communicating with rioters. Now he is removed from the post of county magistrate and ordered Yousina to interrogate him. The post of magistrate of Dongguan is temporary. Acted by Hong Yilin."

Those gentry painstakingly organized a vigorous farce involving tens of thousands of people, but they didn't expect to get involved in a county magistrate. Instead of mentioning it, Hong Yilin was fulfilled, and he took over the seal of Dongguan County in a grandiose manner.This has also made Dongguan the first county in the Pearl River Delta region that is truly fully and legally controlled by the Southern Guangdong Army.

"After this letter of appointment goes down, tell that guy Hong Yilin. Let me loose your guts and hands and feet! If you have any experience and practices, whether they are successful or failed, report them as soon as possible! Benbo will also tell him what he did. Promote it to the whole of Guangdong!"

Taking advantage of his power to control the money and food of the Guangdong and Guangxi armies, and having such a good reason, he helped Hong Yilin to the position of county magistrate, and Shou Han naturally wanted to get some interest back from him.

He gave instructions to several officials in the office, as if he didn't see Jiang Yihong's face at all.

"Mr. Wu Xiang, your mixed brigade did a good job this time. You used the communication between the soldiers and their families to ease the turmoil. At the same time, you actively traveled around the defense area to deter treacherous villains. Those with ulterior motives naturally dare not make mistakes!"

Everyone was thinking about it, but they couldn't figure out why the lord saw Wu Liuqi, the brigade commander of the first mixed brigade every time.He was either called the Iron Beggar or the Fragrance Master. Iron Beggar is better to say, when Wu Liuqi was walking on the rivers and lakes, he was known as the Iron Beggar.But this incense master.Obviously, it is a name between gangs in the rivers and lakes.But where did the master come from?

Wu Liuqi also had a bright face.He ordered his officers and soldiers to write letters to their relatives and clansmen at home, explaining their interests and interests, and the violence that started in Dongguan was the surface.In Chaozhou, Meixian and other places, the turmoil centered on tax resistance was silent.

"I would like to share my worries with my lord!"

Straightening out his chest, Wu Liuqi uttered a thunderous roar with his deep chest resonance.

"Brother Jiang, in the name of the envoy of Guangdong and Guangxi and the acting governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, you have issued official documents to various state governments. Those who collude with each other overtly and covertly shall be handled in accordance with the affairs of Dongguan!"

Hearing Shou Han's words, Jiang Yihong's body trembled slightly, and he immediately bowed to salute, singing promises in his mouth.

"I don't know what new tricks that guy Hong Yilin has come up with now. This guy, this move is very beautiful, and the tens of thousands of people who attacked the city immediately turned against each other."

"He is settling accounts for the people of the four villages in Dongguan."…

A sentry officer of Wu Liuqi's No. [-] Mixed Brigade happened to pass by Dongguan because he was on vacation to get married. After returning to the barracks yesterday, he reported what he saw and heard to Wu Liuqi.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the Office of the Office of the Household Office of the Government Office of Dongguan County quietly fled out of the city with a family, ledgers, fish scale albums and other things, including gold, silver and other things that they had accumulated over the years.Unexpectedly, after being discovered by a few apprentices and helpers, you were very upset. At this time, you ran away with your wife, children, gold, silver, soft things, etc. What should you do if you leave us?

Fortresses are the easiest to breach from the inside.

Immediately these few people rang the gong loudly to gather the crowd, and at the same time they flew to the county government office to report.

After Hong Yilin ordered people to capture the household book, he checked the harvest and analyzed the seized ledgers, fish scale albums, etc.

"Hong Yilin is a bit of a ghost! He asked those apprentices to check the accounts, and deciphered this heavenly book-like fish-scale album for him. Those guys are eager to perform crimes and make meritorious deeds, so how can they not work hard? ?”

"However, I don't know if I don't know, I was shocked. The gold and silver seized from this book office alone amounted to more than [-] yuan, and they were all our Nanzhong silver dollars! Damn! One household book can There is so much private wealth!"

"Brigade Commander Wu, you don't know that most of the book offices and other positions in the state and county yamen are hereditary positions passed down from father to son. Although there are no express regulations, a lot of inside information is kept in their heads and they are never published Writing. Many people may have held the post of book office since the beginning of the kingdom. After several generations of accumulation, hundreds of thousands of net worth are also in love. But this person has so much gold and silver, it is really impressive. Ben Fu is a little ashamed." Jiang Yihong smiled at Wu Liuqi with some embarrassment, because the local officials under him had such a character, his face was naturally not bright.

Things will be easier if someone leads the way.With the full help of the dozen or so apprentices and accomplices who tried to commit crimes and perform meritorious service, Hong Yilin quickly deciphered Dongguan County's fish-scale albums and ledgers of overcharging.

At the moment, Hong Yilin ordered someone to copy out the fifteen typical figures of money and food taxes payable according to the new tax rules in his hand, as well as the figures of money and food they paid in the past few years or even decades, and then wrote it into a notice. It is posted on the door and in various villages and towns.The most vicious move.Hong Yilin also attached such a paragraph at the back of the notice.

"This Hong Yilin, he sprinkled the money, grain and taxes on the heads of the fifteen people he had chosen. The amount was also copied on it, so that the people of the four villages would know who was bearing the royal grain and national taxes on their heads! "Wu Liuqi's face was flushed with excitement, and it could be seen that he was very proud of the current embarrassment of those gentlemen.

"Oh! Does it indicate who these taxes are for?".Shou Han is also very interested in Hong Yilin's genius.If it is clearly stated above that ordinary people pay the taxes, money and food that should belong to them to the supervisors and students, the emotions will definitely be further aroused.

In this way, no matter whether it is the implementation of compulsory education, or the implementation of policies such as the integration of officials and gentry on errands to pay food, and the sharing of rations into the mu, the resistance encountered will be much smaller.

"That's not true. Hong Yilin was probably also worried that those sons of bitches would jump over the wall and cause more trouble. He just used the name of a certain church in the notice instead of naming them by name. But the eyes of the people in the four townships It’s very bright, look at the hall name, and then look at the location of the nearby fields. You can probably guess which gentry this certain hall is!”

Reasonable and beneficial.On the one hand, it hit those gentry who were still lucky.On the one hand, leave room for them.Shou Han was very satisfied with Hong Yilin's grasp of the rhythm and heat of the matter.

"Hongzhi County has left some face for the gentlemen from all over the country by doing this. The next official is here to thank the lord on their behalf!" Jiang Yihong also let out a sigh of relief.If Hong Yilin really made this account book public indiscriminately, then it would be no wonder that the people everywhere didn't call the gentry a thief!

Here Jiang Yihong felt uneasy, wondering how the lord in front of him planned to implement his own taxation system by means of thunderbolt, while Wu Liuqi stared unblinkingly at the guard who was pacing back and forth in the study.

Finally, Shou Han stopped his pace.

"Tie Gai, how is the morale of your troops?"

"Brothers are eager to do meritorious service, please give me a chance!"

"Okay! You take your first mixed brigade, and I will order the second and fourth security brigades stationed in Jiangmen, Panyu, Jiangmen, Huaxian, Bao'an, etc. to be dispatched by you. You will start to mobilize your troops now. The soldiers and horses of the various towns and associations in Guangdong stationed everywhere will carry out forcible inspections, and those who resist the inspections will be disarmed immediately!"

The purpose of Shou Han's action is very clear, first to deal with the old officials and troops everywhere, and to prevent them from rebelling with the officials and gentry everywhere.

Hearing Wu Liuqi's shouting orders excitedly, Jiang Yihong couldn't help laughing bitterly in his heart. How could the corrupt and weak battalion combat power of officers and soldiers from Guangdong and Guangxi be able to deal with the three wolves and tigers of the Southern Guangdong Army?What's more, the leading coach is the iron beggar Wu Liuqi, who is well-known in Guangdong?

If Wu Liuqi's banner appeared outside the gates of the military camps in various towns in Guangdong, the soldiers in the camps would not even dare to move!

Jiang Yihong and Wu Liuqi got up and left respectively. Inside the two gates guarding the Han Xingyuan, Wu Liuqi, who was rough on the outside and shrewd on the inside, saw Jiang Yihong's worried and absent-minded look, and his heart suddenly became clear. He understood very well that Jiang Yihong is now In a dilemma of choice.

One is to completely fall to the Southern Guangdong Army system headed by Li Shouhan, and hand over his wealth, life, poverty, wealth and status to this system.But in this way, it is bound to take the interests of the scholars in Guangdong and the gentlemen in the country as a name, and in this way, they will become enemies with the gentlemen in Guangdong. The bullshit scolded by these people on the Internet is no longer.

But if you can't work together with the Southern Guangdong Army, then your fate will be even worse!

"Master Jiang, why is your face so sad?"

Although Wu Liuqi is a general, his political sensitivity and intuition are much stronger than that of an official of literati background like Jiang Yihong. Otherwise, he would not have been in Guangdong for many years, and his descendants would be the deputy generals of the general army for generations.

"Hey! General Wu, Jue Shuai's enthusiasm is certainly for the sake of the country, increasing taxes and resting the people. However, in this officialdom, among the scholars, interests are intertwined. There are also the same clan, same clan, and in-laws, how can this carry out the intention of Jue Shuai?"

"Master Jiang! This is the problem of you scholars! You always think too much about everything! You see, Hong Yilin, a mere work captain, can turn Dongguan upside down. Who dares to say that those noble families and powerful families What? If they dare to make a mistake, there is no need for the lord to send troops. I am afraid that the people of Dongguan will rush into their deep house and compound, and get back the interest on their properties that have been looted for decades!"

Hearing Wu Liuqi's murderous words, Jiang Yihong couldn't help but feel a chill run down his back, and his already drenched underwear felt even colder.

Although these scholars have always shown contempt for the role and power of the common people, they are very fearful in their hearts. One of their sages, Lao Tzu, who advocates quietness and inaction, has not long taught, "The people are not How can you be afraid of death?" Ordinary people are not even afraid of death, so how can you threaten him with death?If the common people know at this time that they can obtain huge material benefits through this action of overturning the original order, you can see what kind of means they will use!

That became the words of the famous wise and powerful Mingjun Tang Taizong.Water can carry a boat and capsize it!

"Master Jiang, do you want to play leaf cards when you are free at home?" Wu Liuqi suddenly said this out of nowhere.

"I also watch bamboo in my spare time." Although Jiang Yihong despised Wu Liuqi's lack of education, he still answered him very politely.

However, in the end it was from two Jinshi.Playing mahjong bucket leaf cards are all replaced by a very elegant word.Look at bamboo.Probably because most mahjong tiles are made of bamboo?many words

"Now all the cards are in the hands of the lord. Even the Emperor Chongzhen in Beijing can't take the lord. It doesn't matter if the imperial decree in Beijing is a military order. If there is no lord's approval, what can be done in this area of ​​Lingnan and Fujian?" I'm afraid it's too hard to wipe your ass!" Wu Liuqi's words were vulgar and blatant, and his tone was like that of an old man in the Southern Guangdong Army. He only knew about Li Shouhan, but he didn't know about the Ming Emperor.

Jiang Yihong heard this, but he was helpless.

yes!Now in the direction of Liaodong, Hong Chengchou leads eight generals with more than [-] troops to confront Jiannu on the front line of Jinzhou and Songshan. Almost every month, letters or official documents come to ask for assistance in food, grass, arms, gunpowder and other things, and he is known as Yanmei Admiral Yang Sichang, a supervisor and assistant minister, is dealing with the exile Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan, and he also wants to buy military armor and other things.

These two battlefields are where Daming's greatest energy is currently involved. How can the emperor still have spare energy to take care of Lingnan and Fujian?

Jiang Yihong, who is familiar with history books, couldn't say that he didn't have the answer to Jue Shuai's actions, but he didn't dare to think about it.However, rogue bandits, local bandits, horse thieves, and poles are surging everywhere in the Central Plains. Wherever the officers and soldiers of the bandits go, they slaughter and loot.And Hong Chengchou led the troops in the Songjin area, I am afraid that he was wasting his military salary, and it is not known what will happen in the end.

Just as Jiang Yihong was thinking wildly, Wu Liuqi took out something from the armor.

It was a shiny new silver dollar.

"Master Jiang, this is the military salary I just received from the lord. Let me ask you, how much military salary will Chongzhen children give you after your one month? Salary?"

When talking about his salary, Jiang Yihong suddenly had a wry smile on his face.

The thinness of the official salary in the Ming Dynasty is well-known in history. Ming Yu Shenxing’s "Gushan Bichen" Volume 9 "Official Salary" records: The monthly salary of the prime minister in the Five Dynasties and the Northern Han Dynasty was only "[-] coins" (one thread is [-] coins), "Compared to the end of the Tang Dynasty, it has been too reduced", and the Ming Dynasty "is the prosperity of today's unification, and the monthly salary of the prime minister is still not half of this, so the salary in modern times can be said to be extremely thin.

According to the 25th year of Hongwu, the annual salary system for civil and military officials at home and abroad was stipulated: one thousand and 44 shi.From Yipin, 880 eight stones.Positive second grade, 730 two stones.From the second product, 570 six stones.Zheng Sanpin, 420 shi.From the third product, 310 two stones.It is the fourth grade, 280 eight stones.From the fourth grade, 250 two stones.Positive fifth grade, 190 two stones.From the fifth grade, 160 eight stones.The sixth grade, 120 stones.From the sixth grade, 96 stones.Seven grades, ninety stones.From Qipin, 84 stones.It is the eighth grade, 78 stones.From the eighth grade, 72 stones.Zhengjiupin, 66 stones.From nine grades, sixty stones.Uninfluential, 36 stone.Jumi banknotes are folded and supported.

So if so much grain is roughly converted into the money commonly used in the market today, how much is it?

During the Hongwu period, officials' salaries were all distributed to rice, and occasionally to money.It will be issued at the price of one thousand coins and one stone of grain and rice.Officials with high ranks receive four to five tenths of rice, those with low ranks receive seventy-eight outs of ten, and those below nine ranks receive all rice.Later, the banknote folder gave ten strings of banknotes per stone per meter.In addition, for the color salary, banknotes are given in the first half of the year, and sumu pepper is given in the second half of the year.

In the seventh year of Chenghua, there were few banknotes in the household department, so it was estimated by the ministry, and a piece of cloth was given as two hundred guan in banknotes.At that time, banknotes were always only worth two or three Wen, but ten coins per stone were worth only twenty or thirty Wen.A piece of cloth is only worth two or three hundred renminbi, and a piece of rice is only worth [-] or [-] renminbi. "

In other words, the official salary in the Ming Dynasty was only one meter and one stone, which is called true color.The rest are converted with cloth and banknotes, which is called color folding.The part of the folded color is not given in kind, but only a voucher, which can be freely circulated.

During the reign of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, a certificate of one stone of Lumi could only be exchanged for one or two silver coins. Compared with the official exchange standard at the founding of the country: one stone of rice was worth one or two silver, the value has depreciated a lot, and its value is only [-] to [-]% of the original value.During the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, a piece of cloth was only equivalent to two hundred guan of banknotes. At that time, banknotes were always equivalent to only two or three Wen of money. It is only worth two or three hundred Wen, a piece of cloth can be equivalent to twenty Shimi, and a Shimi is only worth [-] or [-] Wen.

Calculated according to this price, Jiang Yihong, the acting governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, the political envoy of Guangdong and Guangxi and the governor of Guangdong, is a second-rank official, and his annual salary is only a few dozen taels of silver.

If there is no corruption and no bribes, it is impossible to support a family and maintain the dignity of an official.You can't ask all the officials to have the compulsive awareness of Hai Rui's personality, can you?What's more, even Hai Rui has to support his wives and concubines. (Huh? How did a beggar ever have a second wife? Could it be that Hai Rui, a clean and honest man with the reputation of Qingtian, has other ways to get money? No! It must be that I opened it in the wrong way!)

After obtaining the military and political power in Guangdong and Guangxi in keeping with the name of the Han Dynasty, the salary system of officials at all levels was reformed first. The officials at all levels of government offices were no longer paid by officials, but were paid by Ningyuan Bofu according to their rank and seniority. Moreover, there is room for improvement in the five-year assessment.

Officials, on the other hand, distribute money to support honesty according to their rank, yamen, and location, but the premise is that you cannot embezzle.There are officials of all levels.From a low-ranking ninth-rank official to him, Jiang Yihong, a second-rank official, he could find the amount of money he could get according to his rank.

In addition to grades, there is also a regional subsidy, which is probably more for poor, remote and difficult areas, such as the various yamen in Guangzhou, so don't think about it.

"General Wu, every year in Futai, Meng Jueshuai is kind and generous, and gives more than 4 yuan of money to support Lian, and another [-] yuan in office expenses can be used for expenses." Jiang Yihong is not secretive when talking about his own money, he knows, Even if he didn't say it himself, I'm afraid Brigadier Wu is very clear about the situation in front of him.

"Well, Mr. Jiang, there is a saying in our country that you can't eat noodles with the bottom of the bowl turned upside down. We are holding a rice bowl in our hands and silver dollars in our pockets. We should not listen to it." His greeting?"

After finishing his words with obvious warning meaning, Wu Liuqi gave Jiang Yihong the shiny and dazzling silver dollar, left this big man in Guangdong official circles, and walked away by himself.
