Chapter 815: Enthroned to accumulate wealth

When Song Wu was in the village, he was on a business trip under the command of Lao Ma, and he could write. Lu Si's famous Wenzong was recorded in the roster by Song Wu.

This has the basic conditions for being a prime minister.

However, Song Wu was a little embarrassed because after the Canal was launched, Song Wu and Jiang Kui were always in charge of the old camp with Lu Wenliang, settled the family in the family and never stood alone.

Later, when the Huai Army captured Yangzhou and Huai'an was established, Song Wu was unable to have a place in the Huai Army because he had no military achievements. Lu Si asked him to serve as the magistrate of Shanyang and became a civil servant.

When Jiangbei Province was established, Song Wu was promoted to the magistrate of Huai'an Prefecture as the magistrate of the county magistrate, and was mainly responsible for assisting the magistrate of Huai'an Prefecture Zheng Biao to handle grain, salt, oil and oil in the prefecture and the transportation of the city and ships in the prefecture.

To put it in the words of Lu Si’s previous life, Song Wu is roughly equivalent to the director of the Municipal Commerce Bureau.

Therefore, it was a bit shocking to promote Song Wu, who was only the sixth rank, to be the prime minister of the central government of the first rank.

But this is exactly where Lu Si uses people in a non-constrained manner, and it is also the special thing about the appointment of an official in the new dynasty of Dashun.

In his official position, Song Wu could not convince the public, but Song Wu could also convince the public.

This subdue to the public is not those who came from Lao Shunying and Xiying, but can subdue the Lao Huai Army, which is the backbone of the Dashun New Dynasty.

Whether it is the governor of Lu Si, the Xia Dajun, Zuo Dazhu, Lu Wenliang, Cheng Lin, Jiang Kui, Xu Monk, or Xie Jinsheng, Shen Blind, Yang Xiang, Ma San, and Sun Wu, they are convinced by Song Wu.

Because, the origin of the above statement, Song Wu is the head of their group.

Song Wu's character is even more trustworthy.

The person who can take back many of the people who come with him at the risk of losing his life is rare in the world. After joining the Huai Army, he always puts the interests of his fellow villagers first and never fears. He has never had any disagreement because he was once a "official family member". He also highly praised Lu Si, a young neighbor, and his loyalty is worthy of Lu Si's recognition.

Therefore, after repeated thinking, Lu Si issued an instructor to Huai'an Prefecture to dismiss the position of Tongzong of the Huai'an, and received the instructor to go to Beijing immediately, and the central government would apply for another appointment.

The only person who knew that the governor transferred a sixth-rank official to Beijing as deputy prime minister was the only one who joined the army in the camp and Jia Hanfu, the assistant minister of the military government.

Before further figuring out that Song Youfu was just a village servant who ran errands for the village chief before becoming the magistrate of Huai'an, Jia Hanfu was even more shocked and couldn't stop his confusion. He asked the governor why he was like this, and said that since ancient times, the prime minister has never been promoted from the peasants.

"Why can't old peasants be prime ministers? Prime Ministers are the ones who govern the country. Those who govern the country are the first to govern the people, and those who govern the people are the first to govern the people. How can there be more knowledgeable to the people in the world than old peasants?"

Lu Si lit a cigarette and said to Jia Hanfu, who was a "bureaucrat": "I don't care whether there were old farmers who were prime ministers in the past, but my old farmers in the Dashun Dynasty could be prime ministers. Jiaohou should know one thing, that is, my Dashun Dynasty was not only different from any dynasty in the previous dynasty. Our officials were not only scholars, but also people from all walks of life. For example, carpenters could be ministers, weavers could be ministers, porters could be marshals, and vegetable farmers could be chief assistants."

After a moment of pause, he said: "In short, the scholars must not be made a family of scholars in the court. In my grand court, there should be representatives from all walks of life to take action. If scholars still occupy the court as before, decades later, the famous national tools will be owned by scholars, generation after generation, deeply rooted, forming a group of interests that are incompatible. In the end, the officials will regard the people as lowly species and ants, and will re-take the old path of the Ming Dynasty."

Lu Si told Jia Hanfu frankly that not only the central government should have a background in all walks of life as "high-ranking officials", but also local governments should do so. At least one-third of the appointments of officials in the future must be simply eliminated by the people.

"Only in this way can we ensure that the country we have built by bleeding and sacrifice will not change color, and my descendants will not go to the coal mountain like Chongzhen."

Lu Si has a meaningful meaning

In Beijing, after the letter related to the throne ceremony was approved by the camp order, Zuo Gu Junen ordered Feng Quan, the assistant minister who was temporarily in charge of the government affairs, to start the deployment.

Feng Quan first communicated with Gao Qifeng, the governor of the Palace Department, to clean up and rectify the imperial city on a large scale. For this reason, Fang Dayou, the governor of Shuntian, organized thousands of people to enter the imperial city to clean and redecorate it. All gates and main streets in Beijing were also deployed on a large scale, without any outside, and they were decorated with lights and colors to create joy.

It was Lantern Festival, and with the support of the quasi-eunuch Li Cuiwei, Shuntian Prefecture organized fireworks at the capital. The Li government even paid 100,000 taels of deposited silver from Manchu to purchase various goods and distributed them to the people in Beijing for free. This made the soldiers and civilians in Beijing happy. Many people gathered at the city gate when they had nothing to do, just to see Long Yan, the new emperor who returned triumphantly in the northwest.

The etiquette of the throne can be customized in the first year of Yongchang. The main "undertaker" Feng Quan is also skilled in the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, so he will not make too many mistakes.

In order to leave a deep impression in the hearts of the supervisor that Mr. Feng was particularly capable of doing things, Feng Quan placed the throne ceremony at Shuntian Gate (original Chengtian Gate).

Because Mr. Feng remembered that when the governor came to Beijing, he stayed at Shuntian Gate for a long time.

"First ascend the throne, make the world clear. Then parade the military and promote the world of martial arts."

Feng Quan's plan was generally approved by Gu Junen, so the Shuntian Gate also began to make major arrangements, and the square under the city tower was also cleared out by a large number of soldiers for the ascension ceremony and subsequent military parades.

Feng Quan, who always keeps the teachings of the supervisor of "spend less money and do more work" in mind, has officially implemented the plan he had already thought of.

That is, he wrote in various places in the name of the central government and "invited" local wise men and wealthy people to come to Beijing to watch the ceremony.

The "gift ticket" is divided into four grades, A, B, C, and D, ranging from 1,000 to 50,000 taels.

The more donations you have, the closer the seats are to the city tower.

Ten places were given above the city tower, worth 100,000 taels.

Feng Quan claimed that anyone who purchases gift tickets on this city tower can not only see the emperor's face up close, but also be summoned by the emperor for good luck.

As a result, news came out and the rush to buy, causing the price of ten seats on the city tower to skyrocket every day.

The Confucius family in Shandong was fighting for seats on the city tower because after his ex-president Yan Shenggong was killed, the Dashun Dynasty has been delaying in the new Yan Shenggong, and there are even rumors that the Dashun Dynasty wants to abolish Yan Shenggong.

Therefore, in order to enable the family to continue to enjoy wealth in Dashunbao, the current leaders of the Kong family tried their best to compete for the seats on the city tower.

Because, in this way, the Kong family can attract the attention of Dashun Xinjun again.

Otherwise, Dashun would really abolish Yan Shenggong, and the Kong family would inevitably lose their family.

Lu Si received a lot of bullets about Feng Quan's ascension to the throne by the ruling state to make money. The one who was on the way was Liu Bao, the left censor of the Censorate of the Censorate, wrote a letter to him.

However, what Liu Bao didn't know was that Feng Quan was able to make money so freely, but the tacit consent of the state.

In this way, no matter how many people are on the screen, they will be left to the sea without being released.

"Those who are kings should be close to the people and have fun with them."

In a private message to his wife Li Cuiwei, Lu Si explained this way why the throne ceremony was actually linked to making money.

"This silver, if you don't think of a solution, it won't come. If you think of it, it will come. Are you wondering? So, although our central government is so poor, the north is also very ruined, but it contains countless wealth. As long as you are willing to use your brain, the total source of wealth will be constantly, taken from the people and used for the people, it is no better than letting the silver not see the light of day in the cellar."
