Chongzhen Chat Group
Chapter 359 Clearing the Land
The nationwide land surveying campaign known as the "Wanli Qingzhang" in history was finally successful and gave Zhang Juzheng a basis for subsequent reforms. With such an example, if Wen Tiren tries it again, he will naturally become familiar with it.
Speaking of which, Wanli Qingzhang at that time did not expect Zhang Juzheng to succeed at first. His initial plan was only to measure the imperial estates in some areas. Unexpectedly, the land surveying in Fujian went extremely smoothly. This gave Zhang Juzheng confidence, and he finally summarized the successful experience of surveying in Fujian and the experience of previous surveying, and promoted it nationwide.
Wen Tiren did not need to ask any more questions from Emperor Chongzhen and reported in detail: "I just thought that it would be best to use Fujian as a pilot for this matter, so it would be better to let the governor of Fujian be busy with this matter..."
Speaking of this, there was a hint of meaning in his eyes. Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, then realized that Wen Tiren felt that the governor of Fujian was now Zheng Zhilong's backer. Now that the imperial court wants to deal with Zheng Zhilong, it is necessary to impose a sea ban. It is indeed a good strategy to allow the Fujian governor to busy himself with other things.
Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood the meaning. However, he was still a little puzzled and asked Wen Tiren: "Since Wanli Qingzhang has been used as a basis, why not promote it to the whole country together, or use a pilot project? ?”
Even if it is promoted nationwide, the Fujian governor will still be responsible for it, and he will still be busy with it.
Wen Tiren smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this pilot is not the other pilot!"
"What do you mean?" Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused.
I only heard Wen Tiren explain: "Your Majesty, although the Wanli Qingzhang Regulations have many benefits, it also exposed many problems in its measurement. The experiment I conducted was to improve on the eight articles of the "Qingzhang Regulations" during the Wanli Period. Then we will conduct a pilot project first, and after confirming that it is possible, we will try two more sites, four more sites... and then expand it to the whole country. This matter of clearing the father-in-law cannot be rushed!"
"In the process of clearing land, it is inevitable for the powerful clan to obstruct it, so the court must severely punish them, and local officials must also have clear rewards and punishments for their work. However, we do not insist on the number of new acres, and the reasons for the increase and the lack must be reported truthfully. And then Let people verify it. After confirming that it is correct, the performance will be determined. If this method is promoted nationwide, I am afraid it will not be taken care of!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen nodded. This time, I have gained experience. If those clan powerful men use the previous methods to obstruct them again, they will have experience in dealing with them, whether openly or secretly. And doing so can also prevent local officials from falsely reporting the number of acres for performance during the Wanli period, which is what later generations called satellite release.
It can be said that Wen Tiren's measure is a prudent approach.
During the Ming Dynasty, the land was cleared after the Hongwu period and then the Wanli period. It has only been a few years since the land was cleared again, which is a big advantage. With reference to the fish scale books from the Wanli period, we can better understand the land situation in the country.
Emperor Chongzhen looked a little serious and said to Wen Tiren seriously: "You can just do this, I'm here, you don't have to worry about anything!"
He said this just to give Wen Tiren a reassurance. When Zhang Juzheng cleared the land in Wanli, he offended countless people. In the reckoning after his death, there was no revenge on him for this matter.
However, this time is different from the Wanli period. For example, Wanli was young and did not hold power at that time. It was carried out with the support of the Queen Mother. Once Wanli himself came into power, this situation changed.
But this time, Emperor Chongzhen was in his prime, and he supported it. At least in the foreseeable future, Emperor Chongzhen still has many years to be in power, but Wen Tiren is already old. When Emperor Chongzhen dies and a new person comes to power, those who want to take revenge on Wen Tiren will probably have gone underground. .
Emperor Chongzhen knew this better than others, because with the chat group system, if nothing else, he could add fifty years to his life, and he didn't know how many generations it would kill. Emperor Chongzhen himself will become a generation of old monsters!
Wen Tiren didn't think so much. When he proposed his innovative strategy in the morning meeting, he had already put aside his personal honor and disgrace. However, he could feel the emperor's love and care for him, and he couldn't help but feel grateful. After thanking him, he left the palace.
Two major events came to light in a row. Emperor Chongzhen bent over and prepared to lie down on the dragon chair for a while. When the chamberlain on the side saw it, he quickly came forward to serve him, put pillows on his head, and made the emperor lie down comfortably.
After Emperor Chongzhen lay down comfortably, he consciously entered the chat group to check out the situation. What he didn't expect was that the group was actually criticizing the government. After climbing up the stairs, I found that the rhythm was actually set by that little brat Zhang Dingguo.
It should be that Hong Chengchou led his troops to pursue them so closely that Zhang Dingguo and the others had no chance to breathe. When they finally got the chance, they started complaining in the group. Those words are nothing more than corrupt officials running rampant, and the words that the King of Hell will not give him a way to survive, and he will take revenge sooner or later.
Later, several scholars from Jiangnan also joined in. However, although they also trolled court officials, they were more focused on a certain issue.
For example, what they are complaining about right now is the matter of Daming Construction Bank.
"The government has opened a bank, haha, I thought I would not know if I changed the name. It also prohibits others from opening a bank. This is competing with the people for profit!"
"Yes, the traitorous officials in the imperial court are in charge. They don't think about how to plead for the people, but they only focus on making money. They are really in trouble!"
"No, since he became the chief minister, he has never done anything good. He just thinks about how to steal from the people. Song Dynasty has so much money, but it is not a country that has perished. When my Ming Dynasty encounters such a chief minister, it is a plague! "
"..."
When Emperor Chongzhen saw this, he couldn't help but look at Wen Tiren's profile picture. These people were scolding him. I wonder what he thought when he saw it? After the land clearing is implemented, there will probably be more people scolding me!
In this group, they themselves have said that they have freedom of speech, so no one comes forward to reprimand them. Haha, if I knew who there were in this group, I wonder if these people would be able to complain.
Emperor Chongzhen was in a good mood at this time, but he had the mood to interrupt and said: "Do you know the importance of money banks to the Ming Dynasty? Don't do everything to compete with the people for profit. Ordinary people can open banks? Is it because you didn't buy it? Daming Construction Bank’s shares, right?”
His words, or the identity of the group leader, were a bit intimidating, making these people quiet for a while.
"The leader of the group is right. Also, why did you take advantage of the plunder? The imperial court has to collect taxes. This is a matter of course. Do you know that the Ming army is at war with the Jianlu, but their military pay cannot be paid, and they are all starving. Belly?" Ruhua interjected.
