Volume C, Chapter 140, compiled from the sixth grade
"Boxiao and Daofu have summoned you?" Qi Yongtai looked at his proud disciple in front of him with gentle eyes, but his heart became more and more appreciative and happy.
He was not afraid of how much Zheng Jizhi and Li Sancai valued winning over each other. The teacher-student friendship was there. Except for Qiao Yingjia who could compete with him, even Guan Yingzhen, who had been with them longer, couldn't compare with him.
There was no way, Qiao Yingjia was the first to take a fancy to this son and personally recommended him to him. Without Qiao Yingjia's personal letter, Qingtan Academy would never have accepted a martial arts disciple with no foundation.
At this point, both Feng Ziying and Qi Yongtai have to admit that Qiao Yingjia can be regarded as Feng Ziying's benefactor and sponsor.
Guan Yingzhen is the commander who has been with Feng Ziying for the longest time, but he is one step behind him, so he can't get past him no matter what. Qi Yongtai is also quite proud of this, and Feng Ziying can be regarded as a scholar from the North. Guan Yingzhen
Zhen is from Huguang.
"Back to Qi Shi, Lord Zheng invited his disciples to talk about the sea tax collection rate after the establishment of the Shipping Department. He also asked about the standards for charging royalties and the conditions for granting concessions to merchants. The disciples felt that Master Zheng was more proactive than before.
More." Feng Ziying knew that the relationship between Qi Yongtai and Zheng Jizhi was not very close.
"Well, Bo Xiao still wants to do something, but it turns out that the situation is not good. He is also a clever woman who can't make a living without rice. The situation of Jiubian's salary arrears is serious, so I can't blame Bo Xiao entirely." Qi Yongtai also sighed.
One sound.
Although he had a normal relationship with Zheng Jizhi, and he believed that Zheng Jizhi, as the Minister of Household Affairs, was bound to have unshirkable responsibilities due to the financial constraints of the imperial court, it would not be fair to attribute all the responsibility to the other party.
"If Mr. Zheng keeps this momentum, I think the situation can get better." Feng Ziying nodded, "In the future, sea trade may drive the development of many industries and provide more livelihood opportunities for coastal people. It depends on the imperial court and local officials.
Can you seize such an opportunity?"
"So this is why you want to go south to Zhili and Fujian and Zhejiang?" Qi Yongtai's opinion of Feng Ziying became better and better. This down-to-earth style is what Qi Yongtai admires.
"Well, I believe that Fujian, Zhejiang and South Zhili will be the main production areas for overseas export goods in the future, such as silk, tea, porcelain, paper and medicinal materials, from growing mulberry and raising silkworms to reeling and weaving silk, from growing tea to
From making tea to opening kilns and firing porcelain, these can bring about many people's livelihoods. It is worth investigating and understanding, and it can also be used to evaluate the scale of future sea trade."
Qi Yongtai has always known that this disciple is very good at current policy theory, but current policy theory is more about layout planning from a high position, and the ones mentioned just now are the methods of managing the world and benefiting the people. Unexpectedly, this disciple is also the same
So knowledgeable and seems very interested.
Does it look like this guy will go in the direction of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works in the future?
But it was this boy who made great contributions in military affairs. In his letter to the cabinet, Chai Ke also praised this boy as a naturally handsome man who was particularly proficient in military affairs.
"Then from what you said, you are not just limited to Ningbo, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, but also want to visit other places?" Qi Yongtai was very interested.
"Well, for example, Linqing and Dongchang Prefecture, Yangzhou and Jinling, as well as Suzhou, Hangzhou and Jingdezhen." Feng Ziying thought that since she was going to go south, she would naturally take this opportunity to have a good tour.
"Oh? Is this Daofu's opinion?" Qi Yongtai laughed.
Li Sancai and Qiao Yingjia were not on the same page, but he still maintained a relatively harmonious relationship with Qi Yongtai. They were both Northern scholars, but there were also close ties between Northern scholars.
Li Sancai has always had a close relationship with the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River. Especially the scholars in Southern Zhili and Zhejiang were full of praise for Li Sancai's performance as governor of water transportation. In addition, Li Sancai was known as a literary and scholarly scholar, so although he was also a scholar from the North.
Although he is a very popular person in Jiangnan, he is very popular in Jiangnan.
"Master Li didn't say it clearly, but he talked with his disciple for a long time with the "Internal Reference". He felt that Master Li was very interested in the maritime trade industry proposed by his disciple, and believed that it could alleviate the problem of Jiangnan's narrow land and dense population to a great extent, especially in the south of the Yangtze River.
If the silk weaving, porcelain and tea making industries can open up the sea trade route, then these industries can develop greatly and attract a large number of people to make a living."
Feng Ziying's words made Qi Yongtai frown, "Ziying, Jiangnan is rich, but the land is small and densely populated, but as long as it is a normal year, people have no worries about food and clothing, but we are different in the north. If you are serious, you should do more
It is appropriate to consider the livelihood of the people in our northern region. The porcelain industry in Jingdezhen is booming, but the porcelain industry in Handan, Guangping Prefecture, is not bad either. Don't put all your thoughts on Jiangnan."
Feng Ziying laughed, this was Master Qi reminding him of his foundation.
"Disciple understands, but the sea trade we will face after the opening of the sea will mainly focus on Fujian and Zhejiang, so the top priority must be focused. As for the Northland, the disciples are also thinking about how to proceed with the opening of the sea in Denglai.
Planning the sea trade between the Northland and Liaodong, Japan, and North Korea still needs to be carefully considered."
"Well, I would also like to remind you that some people already think that you are turning your elbows outward. If the debt proceeds are not mainly used for the defense of the Nine Borders and Liaodong, I am afraid that some people will make noises and criticize you." Qi Yongtai
Nod.
"Master Qi, that's not the case. The disciple has not yet been officially awarded an official position, so he is just a commoner." Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Even if we have more contact with Jiangnan, Fujian and Zhejiang, that's because of the special nature of Kaihai's debt-raising.
It’s not the disciple’s worries that make the decision.”
"There are hundreds of people, all kinds of people. You are so popular now. Naturally some people are jealous, jealous and dissatisfied. For one thing or another, tomorrow the Ministry of Officials will have a report and grant you permission to compile it for the Hanlin Academy."
"Qi Yongtai's calm words made Feng Ziying stunned, "Xiu Zhuan? Master Qi, have you..."
Qi Yongtai laughed, "Why, do you think you can't afford it, or are you flattered?"
"Well, indeed, this disciple has some unexpected surprises. This compilation..." Feng Ziying found it difficult to accept it for a while.
He always thought that he was likely to be dismissed from the Hanlin Academy. He was a seventh-grade official. However, he had already left the academy a year and a half earlier than other concubines. This was a huge advantage. He did not expect to be dismissed.
In terms of editing, this really surpasses Yang Sichang and Huang Zunsu, and is only slightly behind the number one scholar who was dismissed from office a year and a half earlier.
This is a truly exceptional promotion. If the editor-in-chief removed himself from the official position, he only took advantage of the shortened time, while the editor-in-chief was directly promoted to a level, and this level is now regarded as the second best in the same subject as himself.
Neither Huang Zunsu nor Yang Sichang could cross it.
"Originally, as a teacher, I didn't really want you to get rid of your official position and edit the book. Editing is enough. You are already in the spotlight. If you go too far, I'm afraid you will be hated by others."
Qi Yongtai sighed and seemed to be considering something.
My disciple started from the Spring Palace Competition, the palace examination and the palace selection, each wave caused a lot of controversy, and then he went to the west to suppress the rebellion and made great achievements. There is nothing to say about this. The imperial court has always been quite generous in terms of military achievements.
In particular, they attach great importance to the military merits achieved by civil servants.
However, this strategy of opening up the sea and borrowing money was attributed to Feng Ziying. Qi Yongtai was really worried that focusing so much attention on him alone would be too much.
"However, the Emperor believes that you have made great contributions to your suggestions and suggestions on opening up the sea and borrowing money. The first and second assistants also favored your removal from office, so the matter was settled. Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of War, Mr. Zheng from the Ministry of Revenue, and Mr. Li from the Ministry of Rites
Your Excellency, Mr. Li from the Ministry of Works and others all agreed, but it was my teacher who objected, which made Mr. Zhang from the Metropolitan Procuratorate say that as a teacher, you should promote talents and not avoid relatives, and you don’t need to be too rigid..."
Qi Yongtai sighed and shook his head. Apparently he also felt that his disciple was too popular now, so he might as well let him go out for a few months to avoid the limelight. At least it would give people the impression that this disciple was not promoted by the imperial court.
Just pull it out and forget about it.
Originally, there was no need for an official from the sixth rank to come to the imperial council for discussion. According to the usual practice, officials from the fourth rank and below were discussed by the Ministry of Personnel and reported to the cabinet. The cabinet signed the opinion and then reported it to the emperor for approval.
However, this was brought up by the emperor temporarily during the court meeting, which caught Qi Yongtai off guard. The First Assistant, Second Assistant and several other ministers agreed that he, the group assistant and the official minister, could not go against the general public.
I just hope that my disciple will not get carried away because of this.
But based on my understanding of this disciple, it's not that bad. It's just that it will inevitably arouse the jealousy of many people.
"Master Qi, does that disciple need to resign...?" Feng Ziying naturally understood Qi Yongtai's good intentions, but his performance over the past year was so dazzling that Qi Yongtai even felt uneasy.
Qi Yongtai burst into laughter, "Isn't it a joke that you have just resigned from the sixth rank? Well, just go and express your gratitude openly, but you said you wanted to go south to Jiangnan to become a teacher, so you were a little reluctant to do so.
, but now I think it’s just right. If you stay in Jiangnan for a few months and do all the things you want to do, I think it will take about half a year to make the rumors here subside a lot."
Feng Ziying felt happy, then she would be a stable official from the sixth rank.
To be honest, although this editor from the Hanlin Academy of the Sixth Rank was a sinecure, he suddenly pulled himself up in Pinyi. In the future, he could be transferred to the Sixth Ministry of Inspectorate and the General Affairs Department of Dali Temple, or he could be transferred to other places.
It is a rare leap, and it is much higher than the Shujishi in the same subject or even the second best.
Of course, Master Qi also said that there would definitely be some side effects, and there would be many people who were jealous, jealous, dissatisfied and criticized, so even Master Qi suggested that he go to Jiangnan as soon as possible to avoid the limelight.
