Basically all the enthusiastic supervising students signed up for the recruitment of the supervising division Yamen. In the end, it was Zhu Youjian who came out and organized an exam to control the number of students. The final recruitment of the supervising division Yamen totaled four
One hundred and fifty people, including 80 official officials in the main hall, 260 official officials in the Engineering Supervision Office, and 110 official officials in the Financial Supervision Office. The Supervision Department has a director-general, and the salary is based on the fifth-grade officials.
, the six deputy directors are treated according to the salary of regular sixth-grade officials, while other officials range from sixth-grade to eighth-grade. There are two deputy directors who concurrently serve as the director of the Works Supervision Department and the director of the Financial Supervision Department.
At present, these officials are temporarily deputized by those who have excelled in the examination. They are evaluated every six months. Those who have completed the evaluation tasks are transferred from temporary deputies to formal posts. Those who fail the evaluation are demoted to the eighth rank and start from the grassroots level again. This grading evaluation will all
It is a practical content, mainly involving some common knowledge and standards of construction and basic financial knowledge. Either the supervisors who are interested in clerical matters or the supervisors who are just dawdling will be able to pass it.
"The Supervision Department Yamen is still in its infancy stage. Everything has just begun. Even the scale and grade are far from reaching the purpose of setting up this Yamen. There will be considerable room for development in the future. Don't make the mistake of yourself. Don't think this time is temporary either.
Take the assigned grade seriously, do your job well, and it will be officially appointed one year later. This yamen belongs to neither the outer court nor the inner court. I don’t want you to be tainted with their bad habits.
With the new atmosphere of the new yamen, a new situation has been opened up. My message to you is not to ignore the small things, not to underestimate yourself because of your background, to seize the glory from the real, empty talk to harm the country, and to work hard to prosper.
Bang. You must understand these few words thoroughly and understand the truth. Only in this way can you truly appreciate my painstaking efforts and truly understand where your future lies."
Empty talk will harm the country, but hard work will prosper it? Your Majesty, you are not saying that those who came from the imperial examination can only write splendid articles. The ones who can really prosper the country are us, the doers who were born in the imperial examination, right? In the minds of the imperial examination students who listened to the emperor's instructions.
As I was thinking about it, I felt that the future of people like me suddenly became brighter.
After the mobilization meeting, Zhu Youjian was busy working with these supervisory students to determine the organizational structure of the supervision department, the division of personnel responsibilities, and the main work direction and content. Even though they are all a bunch of people who spent a lot of money to go to college.
They are self-financing students, and after mobilizing their enthusiasm for work, they still look like they are doing their jobs, and they don't seem to have insufficient IQ.
The emperor and a group of supervising students were fighting fiercely and were busy building new yamen, but the outer court was thinking of finding trouble for them.
Zhou Yanru and the others naturally heard about the private establishment of the Supervision Department Yamen! The cabinet and the six ministries had considerable objections to the emperor's style of handling matters without consulting them. Although the establishment of this Yamen basically did not involve any external matters,
But they smelled that the emperor wanted to get rid of the outer court and run a separate team.
In order to prevent the emperor from acting alone, cabinet ministers such as Zhou Yanru and Chen Yan, and six ministers came to the palace to seek an explanation.
"Grand Master, why are you free to come to the inner palace today? Is there anything else for the court to do?" When Zhu Youjian saw these people entering the palace together, he knew what they were doing, so he teased these people angrily.
We have nothing to do? What are we doing in the palace when we have nothing to do? Zhou Yanru cursed a few times in his heart, and then said: "Your Majesty, I came to the palace this time to give advice. I hope that Your Majesty will put the country first and not act recklessly.
, destroying the country’s foundation.”
"Destroying the foundation of the country? I haven't even gone to court these days, so where can I go to undermine the foundation of the country? My ministers, please don't talk nonsense."
"Your Majesty, I am admonishing your Majesty not to compete with the people for profit. The country's finances are tight. However, your Majesty does not take state affairs as a priority and allows your servants to do business. You also use your own funds to build factories, which is extravagant and useless.
Road: Misuse of personnel, setting up private bureaucracies, ministers and others are admonishing them for the sake of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhou Yanru and others took out all the things the emperor had done recently as evidence, which meant that these recent things did not pass through them, which was very inconsistent with the rules. The most important thing is that they felt that their own interests were seriously threatened. Just now
At first, he set up an enamel factory in the palace and went out to sell things. These people didn't take it seriously, but recently I heard that the emperor actually sold an enamel factory and made a net profit of more than one million silver. He also wanted to use this money to make a fortune
It is unbearable to open factories or build railways. What is even more outrageous is to use the supervisors to create a yamen that is not controlled by any department. Where do you put them?
"Competing with the people for profit? Have I recently levied an additional tax on the common people? Or have the servants gone out to steal the money? Where are the people? The interests of the people of the Ming Dynasty have probably been eliminated, right? How can we still compete for higher profits?
Speak well to me when you talk about things, and don't mention the words "competing with the people for profit" easily. The country's tax revenue is one to twenty million taels a year, how much of this money do I take? How much is distributed to the palace?
And the dawn of the world has received so many blessings because of paying taxes! Raising soldiers, the soldiers can't fight! Raising officials, the officials can't do anything! I can't support the noble clan, but I can't worry about the country. I spent my personal savings, built factories, repaired national roads,
You have your opinion on using goods to colonize the people and benefit the country. Do you still have the dignity of being an important minister of the country? Let me ask you, is letting the palace run some business and factories, is it selling by force? Is it committing an act of rape?
People's money? What reason do you have for saying that I am competing with the people for profit!"
Faced with the emperor's rebuke, many unprofessional officials were speechless. However, there were still some who knew how to refute. At this time, Fu Shuxun, the Minister of Revenue, showed his professionalism and retorted: "Your Majesty, the wealth of the world is certain.
, there are more businesses in the palace, and wealth is gathered! The people in the world have less wealth, and their livelihood becomes more difficult. This is not competing with the people for profit."
"Whether the world's wealth has a fixed amount is difficult to test, and you can't test it clearly. But even if the world's wealth has a fixed amount, it cannot be equally distributed. Isn't the wealth distributed to every common person a fixed amount? It should be distributed to each province.
, the wealth of all prefectures and counties is not equal, right? Situ, do you think what I said is right?"
"The wealth in the world is unevenly distributed. Some places are rich and some are poor."
"Uneven distribution requires the government's fiscal and taxation and the allocation of goods and crops, so that all people can share the wealth of the world. If the capital and Zhili did not have the tribute from the court's taxes, they would be at most a medium-sized province! I asked the palace to do some factory work.
The purpose is to increase the production of the capital, through the production and trade of goods, and to allow the wealth of the rich land to flow into the capital to make up for the insufficient fiscal and taxation of the imperial court. With large production in the capital, it can reduce the burden of other provinces to support the capital, and also reduce the local tax burden.
Do you understand that the officials are trying to exploit the burden of the people to enter the capital? Is this using skill to govern the country? Did I keep any of the money collected in the palace? Didn’t I use it all to raise soldiers? I used it to build roads and build factories so that the money could be profited.
In the hands of the common people? This time the railway is being built and the factories are being built. The number of employees is nearly 100,000. Will these 100,000 people not have to worry about food rations? Also, there is a certain amount of wealth in the world, but the Ming Dynasty is not the whole world, right? Donglu doesn't need it
Enamel? Western reds don’t use enamel? The Tatars in the north don’t use enamel? This is just enamel, and the capital will produce more in the future. You don’t have to worry about it, you can see the wealth of the world entering the capital.
Wouldn’t it cause less harm to the people than increasing taxes?”
For professional people, you must use professional principles to explain things thoroughly, so that these people will not always find trouble and blame them.
