Chapter 175: Watching Season Jackie Chan's Silver Ticket)
Throughout the morning, Tang Ji followed Chen Zehan around the Ministry of Works, met many officials, and gained a basic understanding of the Ministry of Works.
The Ministry of Industry is one of the six ministries, and it has four branches: the first is the Ministry of Industry, which is in charge of construction and craftsman standards; the second is the Tuntian, which is in charge of farmland, professional fields and public fields; the third is the Yubu, which is in charge of mountain and forest miscellaneous products;
The fourth is the Ministry of Water, which is in charge of water conservancy.
However, this also made Tang Ji feel very confused.
Because this agricultural reform is related to the country's land and farmers, and the Ministry of Industry is in charge of the world's land, but the Ministry of Household Affairs. He can only think that the emperor thought he wanted to build new agricultural production tools, so he was placed in the Ministry of Industry.
But if you think about it carefully, if you want to invent the curved shaft plow and the bobbin cart yourself, it would be better to let him be the director of the Ministry of Industry.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help turning his head and asked Chen Zehan: "Mr. Chen, shouldn't this agricultural reform be led by the Ministry of Household Affairs?"
Hearing this, Chen Zehan, who was sitting at another table, put down the brush in his hand, sighed, and explained: "Actually, starting from two years ago, the imperial court has successively begun to carry out agricultural reforms, but they have all failed.
Later, some officials proposed to replace the equalization of farmland with farming, which caused a dispute between the ministers of the DPRK and China. As time went by, the matter became longer and longer, and the burden gradually shifted to the Ministry of Industry. This agricultural reform was led by the Ministry of Industry, and the household
You see, most of the memorials I am writing now are actually the work of the Ministry of Finance."
"What? Replacing equalized land with farming?" Tang Ji was slightly surprised. Although he was a science student, he also knew that the evolution of the ancient land system was very complicated. The farming system appeared earlier than the equalizing system. Wouldn't it make history worse to replace equalizing land with farming?
fall back?
Seeing his reaction, Chen Zehan raised his hand and waved: "Don't be nervous, the two prime ministers are strongly opposed to this matter. Previously they delayed it because they had nothing to do. Now with Mr. Tang's strategies and methods, we will definitely be able to make it happen."
This land reform was successful!”
Tang Ji curled his lips. What he proposed were all methods of later generations, and he made adjustments based on Ning Guo's national conditions. They are definitely advanced for today.
It didn't take long for Chen Zehan to complete the memorial to be submitted to Emperor Ning. He raised his eyes and glanced at Tang Ji. Once these methods started to be implemented and used, this boy would definitely have the greatest contribution. He might jump from the ninth rank to the main position.
Position, the key is that Tang Ji is only eighteen this year. Of course he can't let go of such a capable person. If he leaves a good impression on the other party now, he may be able to rely on him to climb up in a few years.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but giggle, but found that Tang Ji was staring at him. He quickly raised his hand, put it to his lips and coughed twice: "Well, Mr. Tang, I was reckless this morning and said some unpleasant words.
I hope Master Tang will not mind."
There was a suspicious look in Tang Ji's eyes. He just smiled stupidly and didn't know what he was planning in his heart. Now he actually apologized to himself, but he was his boss after all, so he couldn't help but give him face. He smiled and said: "How could that be?
?What happened in the morning? I have even forgotten it!"
"Hahaha, Master Tang is indeed a sensible person. I like it, I like it. It's getting late now, so why don't we go have lunch!" Chen Zehan touched his belly and stood up slowly.
I don't know why, but when the other party said "I like it", Tang Ji felt a chill on his back, coughed twice, and stood up: "Please, sir."
The two walked out of the government office and walked into the side courtyard from the side path. There was a dining hall specially provided for officials to eat. At this time, there were already a few officials dining in it.
Tang Ji had not eaten in a canteen for a long time. He thought that since this was an official canteen, the food would not be too bad. When he passed by, he saw an official gnawing on chicken legs. He couldn't wait to get two to fill his stomach.
After all, he was really hungry after a busy morning, but when he saw the food placed on the long table in front of him, his eyes widened.
There were a total of five large wooden basins in front of him, containing steamed buns, cabbage, two unknown green vegetables, and a roasted chicken with beans full of beans. Tang Ji couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
His grandma’s. No wonder there were always corrupt officials in ancient times. Just this food, it’s impossible not to be greedy!
Chen Zehan glanced at him and quickly saw that Tang Ji was not satisfied with the food. He sighed and explained: "This is pretty good. Sometimes there is no meat at all. Come on, Mr. Tang, I will give you two more pieces of chicken!"
"No need, I'll do it myself." Tang Ji scooped a spoonful of rice from the iron bucket on the side, and randomly picked up two vegetables. He suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the fat man in the distance:
"Master Chen, why does that master eat so well?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu's family is doing business, so he has no shortage of money, and he brings his own food." Chen Zehan explained with a smile.
Tang Ji raised his eyebrows slightly: "Can you still bring your own food?"
"Of course you can." Chen Zehan nodded.
Tang Ji lowered his head to look at the food in the bowl, then glanced at the fat officials in the distance who were eating haphazardly, and decided in his heart that he would also bring his own food starting tomorrow.
Just at this moment, a figure wearing a light yellow dress suddenly broke in. After glancing around, he greeted in the direction of Tang Ji: "Tang Ji!"
Immediately, the officials present recognized her identity, put down their bowls and chopsticks, stood up and saluted: "See Princess Zhaoyang."
"Oh, no courtesy, no courtesy, you can continue to eat." Li Yue waved his hand casually, walked straight to Tang Ji, stretched out his hand and said, "Where are my things?"
"What?" Tang Ji asked, pretending to be confused.
Hearing this, Li Yue frowned and reminded softly: "It's the book you promised to write to me when I saved you last time!"
Tang Jizhen didn't know how she had the nerve to come to him to ask for a book. She almost killed him last time, but with so many people present, he couldn't continue to pretend to be stupid. He handed over his hand and said: "Princess Qi, I'm the official
Today came in a hurry, and I left the books at home."
"Okay, remember to bring it tomorrow." Li Yue swung his sleeves, looked at the food in his bowl, and shook his head: "Just eat this. Come on, I'll take you to another place to eat!"
Tang Ji didn't want to be misunderstood that he was having an affair with the princess, so he waved his hand quickly: "No, it's enough for me to eat whatever I want."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Li Yue had already snatched his bowls and chopsticks and placed them on the table beside him: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in you, the emperor is here, he just wants to hear the last story!
"
Before Tang Ji could reply, she was already dragging her out of the dining hall.
Looking at this scene, Chen Zehan was speechless with excitement. He is a young talent with outstanding abilities, and now he is valued by the princess. This Mr. Xiao Tang is destined to have a bright future, and he must rely on this thigh!
Tang Ji, Tang Ji, don’t live up to my expectations of you!
The other officials didn't know what he was thinking about looking forward to Ji Chenglong. Instead, they whispered about the relationship between Tang Ji and the princess.
