Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 422 Another Magical Brush
There is not enough talent, so we can only find a way in education. There is nothing wrong with the saying that education is the foundation of a century-old plan.
This year, there will be a large number of children who have completed basic literacy teaching in the land of Shanyang. Sun Xiangfu really wants to quickly establish law schools, economics schools, agricultural schools, engineering schools, etc. Of course, this matter is not Today I will talk about the topic in the hall.

After Li Shimin and the officials realized the importance of Qianzhuang and Changpingcang, Sun Xiangfu said again, "The common people are suffering from disasters and cannot survive, so they choose to go to extremes. In fact, there is another reason, that is, the information is closed.

For example, after the beginning of the new year, factories in Guanzhong have been opened one after another, and there is a huge labor shortage for workers. If the people in some places are affected by disasters or have a hard time, knowing that they can find a job that can earn money in Guanzhong can completely solve their problems. question.

Therefore, I believe that it is also very important to inform the common people of the country's laws, policies, and various information.

The minister suggested assigning tasks to the Ministry of Justice to disseminate these policy information to the common people, because the officials of the Ministry of Justice do not have cases tried every day in the localities, so what do they do when there are no cases to be tried?

Go down to the villages, gather the people from one village to another, preach the laws of the country, tell them what can and cannot be done, and how to deal with suspected illegal things.

Of course, the law does not need to be taught every day, two or three times a year is enough, and when there are new policies, it is good to make up for it. Most of the time, they can read Chang'an newspapers to the common people. There is a shortage of labor in Guanzhong. What kind of talents are needed, what kind of work are they going to do, how much is the monthly salary, the proprietors of the factory only need to publish the news in the newspaper, and the news can be passed on to the people all over the country. If these conditions are met, they will naturally Find a way.

In addition, if the relevant factories want to produce more products, they need a large amount of raw materials. What price to buy, what kind of quality goods are needed, and how much quantity, also need to spread the news widely. The common people, after the merchants know about it, they happen to have local output and can provide it, then they will find a way to organize it and transport it to make money..."

Sun Xiangfu talked a lot, but they were all about the ways and means of people's livelihood development. They were easy to understand and operable, and they greatly inspired the ministers in the court. It turns out that the country can still be governed in this way.

From the beginning to the end, he basically didn't mention how to deal with the Jingzhou tyrants who forced those people to become bandits. This greatly relieved some courtiers who were related to those families. To improve the economy and people's livelihood, Datang also needs internal stability. This article should have been turned over.

What they don't know is that Sun Xiangfu seems to only talk about politics and people's livelihood. In fact, he is already planning to deal with them. Lin Bao and the others have turned into tainted witnesses. Completely break them up, so they can't even be aware of the urgency that can't be expressed.

Didn't they just take a lot of land and need to cultivate it by hand?
Once officials from the Ministry of Justice began to go to the countryside to preach, the common people soon knew what rights they had.

Once the information in the newspaper is known to the people, the people will no longer be willing to contribute their labor just for two meals.

For example, in the Shannan Road area, there will be a Yangtze River Waterway Transshipment Company, recruiting a large number of workers to build docks, and the news of sailing to receive goods, and the news of recruiting workers in Guanzhong will be overwhelming.

Unless these companies can offer better treatment than the factories in Guanzhong or the waterway transfer companies, not only will they not be able to find anyone to cultivate the fields for them, but even some of the people who originally helped them cultivate the fields will not be able to afford it. Unable to resist the temptation, he went to Guanzhong to work.

If the local tyrants want to cultivate all the land they have obtained, the price they want to spend will inevitably be very high, because after the development of information, there will always be people who want to get rid of the fate of poverty and choose to go out. When people get better, they will drive more people to go out and form a trend. This trend cannot be blocked by anyone who says it is. There are laws as a guarantee. Unless the local tyrants rebel, there is no solution.

Of course, even if they rebel, there will be very few people who respond to them. Who will not live a good life, and who will accompany you to die?
This is just the first step. In fact, it did not bring much loss to these local tyrants. The worst thing they can do is return some of the endless fields and plant trees that don't require too many people to take care of them. .

What really impacted their foundation was the impact on their own people after the ordinary people who went out became rich.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, even those powerful children of the clan used to be able to eat well and dress decently, but when everyone eats better than them, dresses more decently, and lives more luxuriously, they They will definitely want to change. In this process, more explicit, covert, and economic means are needed to widen the gap between them and those who have gone out. Once a trend is formed, it will be time for the local powerful forces to be completely eradicated. .

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling only understood Sun Xiangfu's whole plan after watching Sun Xiangfu's secret performance. In Li Shimin's original words at the time, "This policy is rightly clarified. What a stroke of genius!"

"Your Majesty, the veteran believes that the Ministry of Justice can take on this task."

Wei Zheng was the first to jump out and voiced his support. In fact, he was also worried that the officials of the Ministry of Justice were too idle in the local area, because in one year of the Tang Dynasty, all the lawsuits that were punished were only two to three thousand cases. If the Ministry of Justice If the framework is comprehensive and perfect, then there are more than 1000 judges at or above the county level. On average, each person may only be sentenced to about two cases per year. Moreover, the security situation may be even better in the future. It would be a joke if the officials of the Ministry of Justice were all on dry food.

For such a thing, basically no one has found any suitable reason to oppose it. On the contrary, there are many seconders. At least the Ministry of Law, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Rites, and many other departments have taken the lead in expressing their approval. So many people have expressed their agreement. If people objected, Li Shimin naturally announced that it was passed.

Moreover, Li Shimin also made some explanations about specific affairs. Judges not only have to preach laws and court policies in the local area, and publish some instant messages, but also organize local people to vote for interns and even officials in power. .

The results of public opinion votes are handed over to the Ministry of Officials and included in one of the performance evaluations of officials. Although the proportion is not large, it still has a proportion. No one dared to object if it was proposed. The emperor wanted to use the people to supervise officials. If you refuse to supervise, are you committing crimes?

Of course, there is another reason why they don't object, that is, the clan of officials in the aristocratic family is extremely large, and in the territory they control, this public opinion vote is entirely for their bonus points!Of course they won't object, and this may allow them to control the place better!

But they didn't think that Li Shimin will definitely promote them and transfer them out if they have high public opinion points and high political achievements. If you go to other places, it will be difficult if you want to maintain the support of public opinion. You have to do practical things.

Compared with the past, the evaluation system of the Ministry of Officials has also undergone huge changes. If their performance is not good, they will be demoted. Once these people are demoted, there may not be too many people who want to be officials in their original places. It's going to a remote place.

After Sun Xiangfu’s pit was dug out, the matter was not over yet. He also publicly talked about the stimulation of the local economy after the establishment of the waterway transfer company, which was basically the same as what he said with Lin Bao and Samurai Xun. , It took almost an hour to finish.

Then, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were a little surprised. After the agreed waterway transfer company was established, all these profitable projects belonged to the three of us!You said everything in the court at once, what kind of fine ministers, after going down, can they not act?

Therefore, Sun Xiangfu was detained by Li Shimin again. In the imperial study room, Fang Xuanling and eldest grandson Wuji were also there.

Naturally, Li Shimin was embarrassed to directly tell Sun Xiangfu that these transactions should be left to me, so he signaled Fang Xuanling with his eyes, and he asked first, "Zhengming will tell all these businessable projects in public. What is the intention, old man, I still can't figure it out for a while!"

"Hehe, Mr. Fang, I don't know if you have tens of thousands of hands who are proficient in trading and making a living, and can manage the entire business chain in hundreds of docks and dozens of industries?"

"This······"

Li Shimin and the others immediately understood what Sun Xiangfu meant. This piece of cake was too big, and even they couldn't eat it in one bite. With the huge shortage of court officials, they had to get these people to run the business. Only by getting everyone involved can the whole scene be activated at once, and it can also make the cake more nutritious.

"Your Majesty, if we have mastered water transportation, we have mastered the source. No matter what business they do to make a living, the court collects their taxes, and we collect their transportation fees. This profit is big enough. If you want a hundred flowers to flourish in business, you still need everyone. It’s good to come together, if you give them a monopoly, not only will it be useless to the people, but those who can’t eat meat will try their best to oppose and screw up this matter.”

If there is only one merchant in a place who collects aquatic products, then the price of aquatic products in this place is determined by this merchant. If the people want to sell local aquatic products to make money, they will have no choice but to sell them to this merchant. Merchants, then, this merchant can suppress the prices of ordinary people at will, so that ordinary people suffer.

However, if there are many merchants in this place who accept aquatic products, then they will compete with each other. In order to receive more aquatic products to sell for profit, the merchants will try to raise the price as much as possible, which will make the common people Profit.

Moreover, this has another advantage, which is to increase the enthusiasm of officials for infrastructure construction such as docks and storage, and quickly promote the entire project.

I believe that some people with foresight will soon start planning to build their own warehouses and shops on the wharf, so that it will be very convenient to receive and deliver goods.

The series of things Sun Xiangfu did was to make the people rich, because he knew that the country would be richer when the people became richer, so he only suggested that the profit point of this waterway transfer company should be put aside. It’s good in the shipping business. As long as you monopolize the shipping business, you can already strangle many people in the channel. Stop and go, and whether to deliver goods to you are all in the hands of the transshipment company. superior.

You can’t earn enough money. You don’t have enough manpower, so you don’t have to let others earn it. Moreover, only when they earn money can you earn their money.

　Thank you Mr. Saded for the reward. For the few days at the end of the month, please vote for the monthly ticket and the recommended ticket. Starting from May [-]st, there will be three changes every day, one in the morning and two in the afternoon. I wish all friends a happy holiday in advance!
