I really just want to lose my fortune

Zhang Juzheng said straight to the point: "My lord, I would like to ask you, how does your lord plan to govern Zhao Guojun?"

"The governance of Zhao Guojun is not up to my discretion, but to the officials appointed by the court." Qin Ge replied tactfully.

"Master Li." Zhang Juzheng's eyes were on Li Ru.

"Now that the entire Zhao State County is governed by officials, the most urgent task is to select famous people to fill up the vacancies, so that Zhao State County can quickly restore order." Li Rudao.

Zhang Juzheng wanted to complain.

They have all been killed, but the government is clear?

"Although Zhao Guojun is like a blank sheet of paper now, according to Yichen, if things go on like this, new forces will gradually breed, and history will fall into a kind of reincarnation." Zhang Juzheng said: "The family is still the family, and the people are still the people."

Qin Ge became interested.

Indeed, even if he overthrew the current dynasty and established a new dynasty, this history may repeat itself.

It cannot be guaranteed that every emperor is a Mingjun. Zhu Zhanji gave birth to Zhu Qizhen, which is already a big problem.

If the emperor is absurd, even if I create a prosperous Tang Dynasty, I will fall into reincarnation sooner or later.

but……

Hammer sickle and so on, now the wisdom of the people is not developed, the timing is wrong, the productivity is not enough, and there is no excessive capital, there is no way to start!

The Industrial Revolution?

In this land, basically don't even think about it...

At least, Qin Ge thought he was not capable of that.

"That's right, ten years can see the coming and going of spring and autumn, a hundred years can see birth, old age, sickness and death, a thousand years can be a sigh of dynastic rise and fall, and ten thousand years can see the change of stars." Qin Ge nodded: "If it continues, I'm afraid there will be more reincarnation."

"Oh?" Zhang Juzheng's eyes lit up, this prince is very knowledgeable, he didn't talk about people like Daqin Wannian.

"Then, what does the prince think, how to change the status quo?" Zhang Juzheng tentatively asked.

"political reform!"

Chapter 99

Under the current system, it is simply impossible to make the country progress. The legal system is the same as before, and it will definitely fall into a cycle. This is the historical cycle, and it can only be changed through reform.

There are many things in Qin Ge's mind, but he knows that his ideas can't be implemented at all!

He doesn't know anything about reforms, and it would be a disaster to introduce modern things into this era.

If you want to change the law, you still have to let capable people in this era come.

"My lord, do you have any ideas about the reform?" Zhang Juzheng's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, I was right, the prince's ambition is the same as mine!

Li Ru remained silent, and he was not very clear about the reform. He and Jia Xu were both the type who could calculate, but their political line was not so outstanding.

If he doesn't understand, he just doesn't understand. He doesn't intend to talk too much about it, he just needs to see what Zhang Juzheng is thinking and whether the law he wants to change is effective.

A smile appeared on the corner of Cai Wenji's mouth.

She felt that reform was indeed the only way to change. She herself had many wonderful ideas, which were all denied by Qin Ge. It seemed that he still approved of my ideas, but he just didn't say anything about them.

"Not yet..." Qin Ge let out a long sigh.

Zhang Juzheng continued Daming's life, could it be through reform?

No, I can't just say nothing, or I'll look stupid.

"If you want to reform, it is not advisable to make drastic changes, otherwise it may intensify class conflicts and cause class antagonism. If one is not good, there will be chaos in the world. If Zhao Guojun has not suffered from natural disasters, it is okay to use Zhao Guojun as a pilot, even if the reform If there is a problem, it can be found in time, and the loss is also within the controllable range. However, the situation is different now, Zhao Guojun and even the whole of Daqin can't stand the toss." Qin Ge threw the ball back with a serious face: "Master Zhang have a thought?"

"The lower official has some ideas, and wants to borrow a place from the prince's Zhao Guojun." Zhang Juzheng said with a smile.

The more he watched Qin Ge now, the more he liked it.

The meaning of the prince is very clear, he has an idea, but this idea cannot be implemented, it may affect the interests of the family, and finally the government will force the people to rebel.

Moreover, the pilot project he mentioned, the current situation in Zhao Guojun, and the losses caused by the reform are all on the point.

It can be seen that King Zhao himself has certain political ability.

"Tell me first." Qin Ge said.

"First: to get the law through examination." Zhang Juzheng began his explanation: "Now the bureaucrats are thinking about fighting for power all day long, often neglect their duties, and the corruption is serious. In a word, the government is not clear!"

"Although Jin Yiwei investigates corrupt officials, it doesn't have a detailed charter."

"I feel that it is possible to set up a special department to supervise the six departments. Under the supervision of the six departments, there must also be a complete supervision system..."

Listening to Zhang Juzheng's explanation, Qin Ge looked at Zhang Juzheng in a daze.

To put it simply, he is trying to get a Procuratorate Disciplinary Committee to come out!

And his reward and punishment system is completely a performance appraisal.

Qin Ge is no stranger to performance appraisal. Did the complete performance appraisal system exist in the Ming Dynasty?

What Zhang Juzheng said was very detailed and very feasible, Qin Ge was a little tempted after listening to it.

Qin Ge knows that this system is inevitable, as long as there is a knife hanging, those officials who want to fish the common people have to think carefully, this will reduce the probability of corruption.

And Qin Ge's performance appraisal is too easy to understand. Although relying on data and political achievements alone will slip through the net, after all, many people can do anything to get promoted or keep their hats, even in modern times, but his ideas are absolutely Much better than the current situation.

"Master Zhang, great talent!" Qin Ge said excitedly.

"and many more."

At this moment, Li Ru suddenly spoke up.

"Master Li, what advice do you have?" Zhang Juzheng's eyes were on Li Ru.

"Does this department have too much power?" Li Ru sneered, "Is it His Majesty who will be in power at the end of this reform?"

"Hmm..." Zhang Juzheng frowned slightly.

The power of this department is indeed very great, but if there is no weight of power, many things cannot be implemented at all.

"It's good that Mr. Zhang has no selfish intentions. If Mr. Zhang has the power, even if he wants to rebel, it will be easy." Li Ru gave Zhang Juzheng a deep look.

He is Qin Ge's counselor, after all, he will think of everything for Qin Ge's sake.

Qin Ge couldn't hear the disadvantages of this system, but Li Ru could.

"Even if Mr. Zhang is noble and dedicated to serving the country and the people, who can guarantee the future?" Li Ru continued: "Mr. Zhang, please give me an explanation."

"This still needs a lot of consideration..." Zhang Juzheng raised his eyebrows, this Li Ru is not simple.

At present, the imperial court does not have a mature cabinet system like the Ming Dynasty, so if you want to build a cabinet system, you need the strong support of the emperor.

"We'll discuss this later. Zhao Guojun can be used as a pilot for the time being. In short, the original intention of this assessment system and this inspection system is correct." Qin Ge said, in fact, he himself also wants to limit the imperial power...

How to reach the level of later generations is a science.

Moreover, if you want to implement better inspections, transportation and communication are also very important factors.

Not to mention anything else, when the Internet was underdeveloped, many dark things happened in China. It was only after the Internet developed and a series of reforms that it began to change for the better. At least some things will be exposed to the sun.

"Thank you, my lord." Zhang Juzheng heaved a sigh of relief.

Although Li Ru is the nominal top manager of Zhao Guojun in politics, if this matter is to be carried out, it still needs the support of a prince.

Again, the prince is orthodox.

Moreover, there is no crown prince now, and the prince will be the new monarch with full wings in the future.

"Well, I will keep a close eye on this matter." Li Ru said indifferently: "As long as it is for the benefit of the country and the people, I will definitely not create trouble for Mr. Zhang, but if Mr. Zhang has selfish intentions, I can't turn a blind eye to it. .”

Zhang Juzheng smiled slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Any other reform ideas?" Qin Ge asked Zhang Juzheng.

"Tax reform!" Zhang Juzheng said decisively: "Now the imperial court's tax is not low, but why is the national treasury empty? It's because most of the goods are in the hands of officials."

"Everyone pays in kind, the farmers pay the food, and the weavers pay the cloth."

"The value of the real object often varies greatly. If the official says your item is valuable, then you can pay less. If the official says it's worthless, you have to pay more."

"The lower official suggested that all taxes, including regular tax, additional tax, tribute, and various funds needed, as well as all corvees, should be uniformly distributed and consolidated into one item, which is always one item of income. Land tax can be divided into summer grain and autumn grain. There are various titles, which are very troublesome, and if they are collected uniformly, it can prevent officials from being corrupted."

"Furthermore, when the land is checked, the rich have land but don't pay it, the poor are tired of losing, and the poor flee, so the amount is reduced..."

Listening to Zhang Juzheng's words, Qin Ge's mouth twitched.

Grass, did this system not continue in the late Ming Dynasty?

From these two systems alone, it can be seen that this guy is definitely a great talent!

Unified taxation, everyone pays money instead of goods, this is something that only later generations have.

"This method is very good." Li Ru nodded: "However, this has violated the interests of many people."

"What does your lord think?" Zhang Juzheng said to Qin Ge.

"It's feasible." Qin Ge said decisively: "Anyway, in Zhao Guojun... no one's interests can be offended."

"As long as taxes are raised, facts can speak."

"Thank you, my lord." Zhang Juzheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words.

"Is it just these two?" Qin Ge continued.

"This... going on, it might be a bit outrageous." Zhang Juzheng hesitated.

"Say." Qin Ge said.

"The lower officials feel that it is not advisable to emphasize agriculture and suppress business. It should be expropriated by the province to benefit business by favoring agriculture; despise the city and benefit agriculture by favoring business..." Zhang Juzheng continued: "In my opinion, shipping, The Silk Road is very important, we can enhance trade with other countries...and so on, and improve the development of commerce."

He still has a lot of ideas, not just his own. He has a friend named Wang Anshi. The two share the same goals and discuss this all day long.

"Master Zhang...the talent of the prime minister." Qin Ge took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed deeply to Zhang Juzheng: "I wonder if this king will be lucky enough to help Master Zhang...realize his ambition?"

Chapter 100 new journey

Zhang Juzheng stood up solemnly, bowed to Qin Ge, and said in a deep voice: "My lord is the most willing to listen to my ministers in the world today. I am willing to help my lord to create a peaceful and prosperous world."

The two straightened up, looked at each other and smiled.

Qin Ge said, I'm really a waste system at the beginning of the game, and civil servants rely on picking it up!

I have to say that the identity of prince is really easy to use, especially in the absence of a prince.

If I were the leader of an insurgent army, such a person might not be convinced by me.

"Congratulations, my lord." Li Ru also got up to congratulate.

With his congratulations, he recognized Zhang Juzheng's ability.

Moreover, some words Zhang Juzheng said made him temporarily dispel his doubts about Zhang Juzheng's intentions.

Without him, anyone with insight can see Zhang Juzheng's ambition.

Just the tax reform and land inspection, it was already doomed that he, like Qin Ge, would stand on the opposite side of a class.

Even, maybe even His Majesty will not be able to accommodate these two people in the future.

Li Ru was planning secretly in his heart, originally he wanted the prince to make great achievements and succeed to the throne safely.

It can be seen that the prince has such ambitions, and he has obtained such a reformer...

Huh, get ready for the Emperor Qing's side.

Dong Zhuo, King Yan, and many rebels...

Who can be used and who cannot be used must be clearly understood.

Now Li Ru suddenly felt like he was walking a tightrope. Although it was not a killing on the battlefield, it made him boil inexplicably.

On the side of the Qing emperor, from the power of the dragon...

No, it's not the right time to let the blood down for the time being, the prince's foundation is too shallow.

Even if Zhang Jiao really defected, it would take some time to digest.

Fighting a war is not just about having soldiers, logistics and so on have to keep up.

The disaster has just been lifted, and with the prince's current background, a war with a scale of a thousand people cannot be fought.
