Chapter 473 Liu Zongzhou of the School Running Party

Lin Qian has already asked about all aspects of the salt class, and Liu Zongzhou has heard it clearly. Today's court meeting failed to prevent the emperor from setting up a salt merchant. This salt merchant is finished. Regarding the salt class, it depends on what the emperor prepared So sufficient, reform is inevitable, even the establishment of salt merchants failed to stop the emperor, let alone the salt class?Once this matter comes to tomorrow, the salt merchants will be criticized by thousands of people and scolded by thousands of people. Changing the salt class is just taking advantage of the trend. The emperor has said so much to himself, and the meaning is clear enough. It is to let himself speak for the emperor and speak for the emperor It's just for changing the eyes of the salt class. The advantage is that there is enough money for running the school, and I have enough status in the running of the school. It is not difficult to leave a name in history in the future.

Liu Zongzhou, who had figured it out, felt a lot of emotion, and after thinking about it again and again, he knew that he had no other way to go except to follow the trend. The emperor had already become a general trend by running a salt merchant, and wanted to prevent the emperor from changing the salt class. ,almost impossible.If I don't follow the trend, besides not being able to stop the emperor, I will also lose my position in the grand events of thousands of years, and miss the opportunity to be famous through the ages, and the emperor is just a different person to do this, which is more important , no more comparisons are needed.

"I want to report to Your Majesty, I bow to you. I fully agree with the reform of the salt class. The salt class has already reached the point where it must be changed. How dare you ask your majesty what you want me to do? Your majesty just orders, and everyone in the world will know the salt merchants." recognize the insatiable greed of salt merchants, and harm the country and the people; recognize that the salt education has reached the point where it must be changed..." Liu Zongzhou thought it through, and felt emotionally, and soon made up his mind that since he could not go against the sky, Then you can only follow the trend.

Lin Qiang glanced at Liu Zongzhou, didn't say anything, just buried his head down, the drama played by the emperor has become more and more exciting, and he recruited a great Confucian from the Donglin Party to deal with those Donglin who had a deep relationship with the salt merchants. Lin Dang, this... is really interesting. Looking at Liu Zongzhou's serious and sincere appearance, Lin Qian, an honest man, couldn't help laughing in his heart.

"Hehehe, the Qing family really understands the general situation. In fact, as the Qing family said, what I want to do is to let the people of the world understand how shameless, greedy, and hateful the salt merchants are. I'm sorry for the ancestors, I'm sorry for the people, the country is about to die, so I will tell the ills in the salt class, the corruption problem, and the inevitable change of the salt class..." Yang Reform said with a smile, this great Confucian, Sure enough, he is a person who "knows the general situation". When it comes to this, he is very obedient and follows the trend.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I understand that I must follow Your Majesty's wishes and reprimand the salt merchants for their greed and shamelessness, so that everyone in the world can recognize the face of the salt merchants, and let everyone in the world know that the salt class must be changed... "Liu Zongzhou has already chosen to take refuge in the emperor, so it doesn't matter. He started to seriously consider the problem from the perspective of doing things for the emperor. After doing things for the emperor, his affairs will be easy to handle. Liu Zongzhou can't help but think about it. Comfort myself, the emperor is actually quite generous in this matter, giving him several million taels of silver every year to buy meritorious deeds.

Yang Reform smiled and nodded.

"My Majesty, in case someone asks how to change the salt class, do you want to tell your Majesty's ticket salt law?" Lin Qian was very serious, and asked the question to the point.

"There is no need for this. You just need to do your best to raise awareness and momentum for this matter. I will arrange other questions..." Yang Reform thought for a while before replying.

"I obey the order." Lin Qian agreed.

"Once this matter is done well, the funds for running the school will be settled. I will never break my promise. I will use 200 million yuan from the salt class to support the running of the school every year, so that there will be no worries about running the school." Yang Reform said with a smile, since The conditions have been agreed, and the promises that should be made must be made.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Liu Zongzhou saw that the emperor had agreed to the money, and his heart fell to the ground. With the money, it will be easy to handle, and the matter of running the school will be settled. With the money, this grand event through the ages will finally come to an end. Let's start, the Japanese must be famous through the ages, the emperor is really generous enough.

"My Majesty, the school has just started and is still in the trial stage. The 200 million taels is enough, but once it is fully rolled out in the future, the 200 million taels may not be enough..." Lin Qian is a real person, He is a person who is serious about running a school, not just for the sake of fame, and he was not dazzled by the 200 million taels of silver, and asked questions about the future of the school.

"Hehehehe..." Yang Reform laughed for a while, and said again: "How about this, I will change the 200 million into 1000% of the salt class, and in the future, 200% of all salt classes will be used to support the school. So that everyone in the world can supervise the salt class. Whoever dares to sell private salt and tamper with the salt class is to become an enemy of the world and steal the wealth of the world's people, so what?... In addition, the salt class next year may be less than 200 million, 400% may be less than [-] million. If there is any shortage, I will make up for it. I believe that in the next year, the year after the old age, the salt class should gradually stabilize, and [-]% and [-] million will basically not be less. This school fund Even if it has stabilized, there is a large part of this salt class, and I will use it to support disaster relief and immigration. After staying for a few years, I will not immigrate, or I don’t need so much money, and I can transfer part of it to the school fund , In this way, the funds for running the school will be more secure... I believe that in a few years, with the joint efforts of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, our dynasty will surely reappear the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and by then, the population will increase again, hehe , if more people eat salt, the salt price will increase accordingly,...hehehe, if there are [-] million people who eat salt, the [-]% of the salt price will be [-] million taels..." Yang Reform laughed Hehe said, met a more serious subordinate, this old foundation has been turned out.

"Your Majesty, I admire you!" After listening to what the emperor said, Lin Qian once again kowtowed to the emperor seriously. In this way, the matter of running the school is really guaranteed, even in the future. With the spread of the area, the money also has a source, and it really moved the emperor's sincere feelings for running a school.

Liu Zongzhou became vigilant, and looked at Lin Qian, an honest man, in his eyes. Lin Qian was just an honest man, but because of his honesty, he was chosen by the emperor to run a school, and it was entirely because he was honest. No matter what he said, he could do whatever he wanted, he was a wooden man, but after listening to Lin Qian’s many words to the emperor today, Liu Zongzhou began to realize that this Lin Qian was not a wooden man like he imagined, he was not the emperor. A puppet in his hand, his talent is higher than his own, and the emperor's care and attention to him is higher than his own. Liu Zongzhou began to realize that the matter of running a school may not be as he imagined. I can replace Lin Qiang and become the No. 1 school.Then, Liu Zongzhou began to worry about the issue of status and reputation in the future.

"Your Majesty, I dare to ask..." Liu Zongzhou became anxious at this moment. Lin Qian was justly appointed to run the school, but what was he?If the name is not correct and the words are not right to meddle in this matter, wouldn't it be a mess in the future?Thank you for your effort?
"Oh, what's the matter?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Mr. Lin is the person appointed by His Majesty to run the school, but my minister..." Liu Zongzhou immediately raised this matter. This is a big question. If you don't raise it now, you will miss this opportunity to bargain. In the future, wouldn't I leave nothing behind?
"Hehehe..." Yang Reform laughed for a while, and said, "I am about to talk about this matter." Yang Reform thought to himself, you knew to ask, but we thought you were in a daze, and even forgot to ask this.

"The matter of running a school was first proposed by Lin Qing's family, and he was appointed by me, so he must be No. 1 in running a school..." Yang Reform said.

The emperor's words completely shattered Liu Zongzhou's hopes. It seemed that it was impossible to become No. 1 in running a school. He felt a bit decadent in an instant, and he lived up to his previous excitement.

Yang Reform glanced at Liu Zongzhou's decadent appearance, and continued without stopping his words.

"... The school running involves millions of taels of silver and involves millions of people. It is no longer the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites. It must be like Master Xu's Secretary of Agriculture. A new yamen will be fully responsible for this matter Maybe it's called the Department of Education, I don't know..." Yang Reform continued.

Sinon?Liu Zongzhou remembered that Xu Guangqi came. Xu Guangqi was named as an imperial envoy in charge of the Sinong Department. He was the No. 1 immigrant. The thing is so similar, it costs a lot of money every year, and it involves a lot of things... The Secretary of Agriculture has two deputy imperial envoys... Thinking of this, Liu Zongzhou began to recover again, the deputy imperial envoy of the Secretary of Agriculture, Donglin Party Zhou Yanru, didn't he do a good job and steal the limelight?Isn't the reputation great now? Although not as good as Xu Zixian, it is not difficult to become famous in the future. Now, the deputy imperial envoy is not trying his best to take over Xu Guangqi's class as an imperial envoy. ?Thinking of this, Liu Zongzhou seemed to have been beaten into chicken blood again, and he started to germinate. Lin Qian took the lead. .1 from the throne, I am afraid it will be difficult, not to mention that the emperor values ​​him so much, it is even more difficult to drive him from the throne of No.1 in running a school. Every year, millions of taels of silver are definitely beyond the control of the Ministry of Rites. This is bound to establish another government office like the Secretary of Agriculture, such as the Education Department mentioned by the emperor. It is very likely that this Education Department will also have a deputy. As an imperial envoy, if you can be a deputy imperial envoy, perhaps, it's not bad, then Zhou Yanru has done it with gusto and enthusiasm, why can't he himself?
Yang Reform was surprised to see Liu Zongzhou's arousal again like a chicken blood, and he was surprised. It seemed that he had a chicken blood again before he said anything?
"May I ask your majesty, does your majesty mean that, just like Si Nongsi, a new yamen will be formed and imperial envoys will be appointed?" Liu Zongzhou asked "excitingly", his eyes were full of expectations.

Sinon?Imperial envoy?Hearing Liu Zongzhou's words, Yang Reform was stunned for a moment. Originally, he planned to rank according to the amount of effort in running the school. In the future, when the Education Department was established, the Education Department would be selected according to this ranking. It was also a kind of fruit distribution. Now, this Liu Zongzhou directly referred to the imperial envoy of Sinong. When it comes to imperial envoys, Yang Reform remembered that there were three imperial envoys in Sinong. One of them, Zhou Yanru, had a good life, and he was considered to be in the limelight, and his reputation spread all over the country. Among the common people, his reputation was extremely good. Could it be that this Liu Zongzhou planned to use Zhou Yanru as an example?Also want to be a deputy imperial envoy?
"...That's right. In the future, when the Department of Education is established, imperial envoys will definitely be selected. Lin Qing's family is the first to create it, and it was hand-picked by me. They must be regular imperial envoys. However, there are still two positions for deputy imperial envoys. I don't know if Qing Does the family intend to condescend?" Yang Reform changed his words temporarily, since this Liu Zongzhou valued the position of deputy imperial envoy, then give him the position of deputy imperial envoy, now, I still need him to make noise for changing the salt class.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I'm willing!" Liu Zongzhou quickly agreed happily, don't even think about running the No.1 position of the school, then he can only learn from Zhou Yanru and get a deputy imperial envoy, although it is worse than No.1, However, it's still not too bad. If you do a little work, it's not too difficult to make a famous name in the future. Alas, why didn't such a good thing as running a school fall on me?Otherwise, wouldn't the title of No. 1 in running a school through the ages belong to me?Life!Liu Zongzhou sighed in his heart again.

"Okay!" Yang Reform looked at Liu Zongzhou, who had regained his blood, and felt a little inconceivable.

Yang Reform was very satisfied, and said, "Liu Qing's family."

"The minister is here." Liu Zongzhou agreed with mixed joy, some helplessness, and some gratification.

"Lin Qing's family is an honest person. This is the consensus of the government and the public. They will always suffer losses when arguing with others. In terms of prestige, they are not as good as the Qing family. In these aspects, the Qing family should contribute more." Yang Reform said again, Liu Zongzhou's role, It lies in his identity, in his ability to talk and fight with others, which is to make the best use of everything. As for doing practical things, Yang Reform does not count on Liu Zongzhou, a person who can only play tricks. The number one in running the school is definitely Lin Qiang.

"Your Majesty accepts the decree! Don't worry, Your Majesty will not let you down." Liu Zongzhou quickly agreed.

"Okay! As for running the school and the salt class, I will leave it to the two of you..." Yang Reform smiled again.

"The minister waits for the order!" The two agreed again.

……

Finally, the school-running party was appeased, and the promise to the school-running party was made. The battle for the salt class is about to start. Although this is a good thing, although it is worth being happy, after the joy, Yang Reform also felt exhausted all over his body. Today, I may have exhausted my energy, I was too "hard" in the performance in the court, and after the battle in the court, I will share the fruits here, and my energy is almost exhausted.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty? Do you want to take a break?" Wang Chengen asked distressedly. Looking at the exhausted emperor, Wang Chengen felt very distressed, but the ministers outside were always missing, so Wang Chengen had to wake up the emperor.

Yang Reform, who was dozing off with his head propped up, was awakened by Wang Chengen. His mind was drowsy, his mouth was dry, he smacked his mouth, and said, "See, who should be next? Uh... get me some tea, I want to refresh myself .” Yang Reform said in a daze.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's still Xiao Jiuqing. After Xiao Jiuqing, there are ministers of various ministries, Shaoqing, and the governor who came to Beijing, and..." Wang Chengen was full of distress, but he had to say it out.

"Well, I got it, see you later, besides, get me some tea..." Yang Reform replied without thinking, reminding himself again to give him a handful of tea.

"The maidservant complies with the order, so I will do it now." Wang Chengen agreed with a heartbroken heart, and went to work.

After a while, Wang Chengen brought in a pot of tea leaves for Yang Reform. Yang Reform knew that drinking strong tea would not do much to refresh his mind, so he served the tea directly. He took the tea pot and poured some tea leaves on his own Crush it in your hand, grind it in the palm of your hand, then pour it into your mouth, and send it to your stomach with the tea.

Wang Chengen watched the emperor eating tea, sweating in anxiety.

"Hehe, it's okay, I just want to refresh myself, this tea can be soaked in water to drink, and it won't kill anyone." Yang Reform said with a smile.

Wang Chengen was speechless, and was about to say something when the ministers outside had already entered, and the interview had to continue.

……

Yang Reform refreshed himself by eating tea directly, and met several batches of ministers before he calmed down a little.All the fruits that should be promised have been promised, and some unknown officials who cannot be named have also gotten to know each other a little bit and become familiar with them.To say a few words about their work is considered to have seen them.

"Big companion, who else is there?" Yang Reform asked again after sending out a group of ministers. Up to now, the rank of officials has been getting lower and lower, and it is estimated that it is almost over.

"Going back to Your Majesty, it's almost time, but I still haven't seen Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Household Department." Wang Chengen reminded that the emperor had informed him earlier and asked Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Household Department, to be the last to see him. Now it's the last time. Wang Chengen reminded.

"See you!" Yang Reform said without hesitation.

Bi Ziyan stood alone outside the Taimiao. Today, I don’t know what happened. He, the minister of the household department, was supposed to meet behind the cabinet. No matter how bad he was, he should have seen him after the nobles had seen him, but the emperor He has not been summoned until now, even the people in the matter have seen him, the emperor still has not summoned him, the sky has already darkened, and he is standing alone outside the Taimiao, in the cold wind, It seems a little lonely.

The officials who had just met the emperor came out, looking at the Minister of the Household Department, the celebrities in front of His Majesty, chatting in low voices, wondering what offended the emperor, so that the emperor did not want to see him so much.

Bi Ziyan turned a blind eye to the passing officials, still standing straight alone, without any messy eyes.
