Datang: My Peerless Talent Has Been Exposed

But what he saw just now, and after asking Ma Zhou, he was sure that it was either a county near Pyongyang that was blessed by Pyongyang, or an ordinary county in the interior.

The only difference from before is that the merchants of Datang have settled in, reclaiming wasteland on a large scale, and hiring people for planting and breeding.

Could it be that the state capital under my rule is not as good as an ordinary county government under Zhang Nuo?

When Li Shimin thought of this, his complexion suddenly became a little ugly. If this is the case, then he has to think carefully about whether those governors and long historians still need to stay in that seat.

Chapter 601 Li Shimin's Reflection

Li Shimin's exclamation was not random. For Datang, the most basic scope of governance is the county government, and the village and town level basically rely on local autonomy. The county magistrate has means and ability, and the local folk customs are relatively simple. , that's okay.

But if the local clan is relatively powerful, then the county magistrate will basically have a prestige in the county.

But that's all. After all, the previous dynasty was like this, but the role played by the county government on Pyongyang Road is not comparable to that of the county government in the pass that does not go to the countryside.

On the side of Pyongyang Road, every order of the county magistrate must be implemented in place as long as it is within its own jurisdiction. This must be guaranteed no matter what.

After all, if the county government's decree can't be passed, doesn't it mean that Zhang Nuo's government decree can't be passed either?This is not a joke, Zhang Nuo absolutely does not allow such a situation to happen.

Zhang Nuo took advantage of Koryo to subjugate the country, and at the same time the entire Koryo was designated as a special zone in Pyongyang Road. All the policies were formulated by himself, and the entire Pyongyang Road was broken and restarted almost instantly.

Although Goryeo, as a country that has always admired the civilization of the Central Plains, has always had many local clan forces at work, but under Zhang Nuo's destructive force, all clans in any place have to leave.

Especially in many places, Zhang Nuo directly killed chickens and monkeys, and struck out with heavy blows. After a few times, everyone became honest. After all, even King Rongliu of Korea and the entire royal family said that they would be gone. The local clan power is nothing. Is Datang's knife bad?Or are they hard-headed?

It was Zhang Nuo's tough method that forced the entire Pyongyang Dao to truly do what he ordered from Qin Wang Zhang Nuo, and the entire Pyongyang Dao would not dare to refuse.

With such conditions as a basis, it is not surprising that Zhang Nuo can produce household registration information and local information as accurate as later generations.

As for the problem of information transmission, this is simpler. It is nothing more than a problem of personal labor costs. It is easy to say anything if you are willing to spend money.

After all, Zhang Nuo is very clear that the reason why some things are not done well is not because the people below are not dedicated, but because the above wants to do things well and spend less money. Isn't this embarrassing?

Naturally, Zhang Nuo would not do such a thing. Before the railway has completely covered the entire area, the staff allowances, board and lodging subsidies, etc. that should be given will all be paid for by the city lord's mansion on his side.

In this way, no matter how remote the place is, you only need to send people to submit the official documents on time, and all the expenses of the people are borne by the above, so what reason can there be at this time?

Zhang Nuo literally used money to create a data collection and reporting system.

After Li Shimin communicated with Ma Zhou, he finally understood the twists and turns, but when he turned his head and thought about it for a while, he took a deep breath.

It seems that he can't do this in the customs for the time being.

Judging from Zhang Nuo's approach, there are mainly two aspects of effort. One is to eliminate the local clan forces, bring all townships and villages into the scope of management, and truly cover all government orders. Only in this way can the accuracy of the information collected by the county government be guaranteed. Timeliness.

Another method is to spend an extra sum of money dedicated to the related expenses of data reporting.

It is these two points that ensure Zhang Nuo's complete control over Pyongyang Road!

But after Li Shimin cleared up the thoughts in his mind, he really couldn't do anything except take a breath of air-conditioning.

First of all, clearing up the local clan forces is an impossible task. It can even be said that Zhang Nuo's side would not have been able to complete it in normal times if they hadn't taken advantage of the opportunity of the subjugation of Korea.

After all, the concept of clan has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Compared with the officials sent by the top who will leave after a few years, the local people still have more trust in the clan elders of the same root and race.

If this is the case in Goryeo, let alone the Central Plains where clan culture prevails.

It can even be said that if Li Shimin dared to clean up the local clan forces, the court would be in chaos as soon as this order was passed out.

Because at present, all the officials in the court, even if they come from poor families, can actually be regarded as members of the clan power in the local area, but some families have developed better, so they are regarded as gentry or rich families, and some are not so well-developed and have great influence. Not that big.

Even if it is a so-called poor family, those who can actually let their children go to school have a little reputation and prestige in the local area!

This kind of phenomenon is not to mention the current Tang Dynasty. Even in the modern times thousands of years later, clan forces are deeply intertwined and stubborn in many places. Village officials are clan elders, and even the county magistrate often has to salute when he comes.

What policy needs to be discussed, otherwise, these clan elders can pull up a team of hundreds or thousands of people to make trouble with a single call.

And there is another problem in the middle, that is, the clan power does not necessarily oppose the government. In many cases, there are quite a lot of humane ideas in it. For example, because everyone has the same surname, which one really came out? If there is an accident or a disaster, other families will help raise the children, provide relief to the widows and so on.

It can even be said that the reason why many children from poor families in the court opposed the decision to eliminate local forces was often because they were also helped by the clan at the beginning, so they could concentrate on studying honestly and honestly.

Now that they are already in the temple, are they going to attack those clans who have helped and helped them?

Therefore, the first condition Li Shimin was a little bit unable to handle in the Central Plains, or it was impossible to start at all.

Of course, it's not that there's no way at all, it's just that Zhang Nuo's tough and direct approach, like flipping a table, is absolutely impossible.

But if you switch to Huairou or other methods, maybe it will have a miraculous effect.”

Li Shimin is still thinking about this point, and even plans to think about it after he goes back. Now that the empire is in a state of waste and waiting for a new take-off, there must be some new changes.

As for Zhang Nuo’s second method, directly throwing money at people and reimbursing all expenses, this is nothing to Li Shimin. After all, the old Li is no longer the poor and white old Li who just came to the throne. , but at least it can be said that the family background is rich.

But there is also a problem in the middle. The farthest place on the Koryo side is only half a month away from Pyongyang City, but Datang is different. It takes several months to go far away!

Do these people go back and forth once a year?

Chapter 602 Ma Zhou's Adventure

Li Shimin originally thought that he could get some inspiration from Zhang Nuo's New Deal, or he could simply move it back when he saw a good thing and follow it.

But I didn't expect to think about it carefully and found that it is not used at all, which is a bit embarrassing.

However, this can't stop his heart from getting hot, because he clearly knows that these policies are really working for the better in Pyongyang at least for now.

So if these policies can be implemented on the land of the Central Plains, there will inevitably be a good result, but the method of implementation still needs to be considered.

And just when Li Shimin was about to put the official document in his hand aside, Ma Zhou, who had been observing for a long time, finally seized the opportunity to speak.
