Chapter 340: Shameful little boy

  Chapter 340 Shameful boy

  Lin Jinxiao listened to her detailed explanation with relish, and asked with great interest, "What method?"

   "Tell me about these wealthy families. Although they hold tens of millions of wealth in their hands, they are still low-ranking families. What do they want to do most?"

  Chu Nanzhi didn't say anything clearly, but asked back first.

   "Naturally, I want to get rid of the lowly nationality and become a noble family. It is also the wish of all the children of poor families to seek official positions."

  Lin Jinxiao was understood by her, and Mao Sai smiled suddenly: "Do you want me to use the promotion of an official position in exchange for the concessions of these gentry?"

"good."

  Chu Nanzhi expressed his relief, this guy is indeed smart, and then continued to speak eloquently:

"Now that you are the magistrate of the six counties, you have the right to recommend talents to the imperial court. The Eastern Coastal Defense District has just been established, and many places need to employ people. If these gentry are willing to respond to the policy order, you may wish to consider giving them some places. In order to let them choose some virtuous and upright people from the clan to stay in the county to serve or recommend them to the court,

This not only solves the problem of employing people in the county, but whether the students who are promoted to the imperial court will be finally hired depends on His Majesty's decision. If you fail to meet the standards expected by His Majesty, you will not be held accountable. "

   This is the drawback revealed by the procuratorate system, so over the years, many wealthy and dignitaries have bribed local officials with money to recommend talents to the imperial court, and many of them were hired in the end.

  As for Lin Jinxiao, she also knows him quite well, and she would never do things like betraying officials for the sake of vulgar gain.

  In any case, it is necessary to recommend talents to enter the court, so it is better to take what they need.

  It was a very bold proposal, but Wen Wen, who thought Lin Jinxiao thought so, laughed:

"Your method is really good. Those wealthy and dignitaries are self-sufficient. They may dream of entering the palace for a lifetime, so I gave them this opportunity. I really should recommend more talents for the court when I take office. Tomorrow I will Make a policy question and send it to the county, and all Confucian scholars who can pass the policy question can be recommended as Xiaolian to enter the court."

   "No filtering?"

  Chu Nanzhi asked in surprise.

   "Nature is to be screened."

  Lin Jinxiao answered casually, but then changed the topic: "However, only those students who have no problem with their reputation as you said just now will be screened out, and then they will go to Jingling City to take the exam together with the candidates recommended by the major gentry and gentry."

   "That doesn't mean there must be a lot of people. Isn't this beyond the quota limited by the imperial court?"

  Chu Nanzhi looked at him worriedly.

  She remembered that in the past, every year, a large county like Pingning County could only produce more than 200 filial pieties into the Lang's Office, so I am afraid that there will be many more.

Lin Jinxiao waved his hand very calmly: "It's okay, the six counties in the east, except Haikang County, the rest of the counties are all large counties, with Luyan Port and Tong County being the most, the reputation is the same and the strategy can be completed. There must be at least three to five hundred people who asked."

   "Tong County?"

  Hearing about Tong County, Chu Nanzhi is very sensitive now, but he didn't know that this county was also included in the six eastern counties.

  Lin Jinxiao didn't know why she was so surprised by Tong County, instead of being surprised by the number of candidates, so he could only patiently explain:

   "Tong County borders Sanghai in the east and Donghua River in the north. It is the largest sea port in our dynasty. Although it is not as prosperous as Luyan Port, it is also an extremely important county."

  Chu Nanzhi was not curious about the strategic location of Tong County, but felt that Tong County was out of the control of Pingning County. Would it be easier for her to investigate the matter entrusted by Mr. Zhao?

  As for Luyan Port, its geographical location is actually not too different from the ancient Hangzhou in her world. The reason for its prosperity is naturally the construction of the Jinglu Canal leading to Jingling City in Kyoto.

After a few digressions, Lin Jinxiao turned the topic back to the main topic: "This year is the first year for the establishment of the Eastern Coastal Defense District, and no edict has been issued regarding the number of nominations for the six counties. There are no more than a hundred people together, and this has to count the officials who fill the vacancies in the counties. If I enter the court with a filial piety, the court will not have any objections."

   "Could it be that you still want the court to have objections?"

  Chu Nanzhi was confused by his words.

   "Yes, I just want to make the court aware of the strangeness."

Under the dim light, a cunning gradually appeared in Lin Jinxiao's eyes: "Nowadays, land annexation in various places is serious, and the imperial court doesn't care about it, but it keeps raising taxes and taxes, making people's livelihood difficult. Now, in order to let the people have land to cultivate, It is necessary to use the number of officials as an exchange condition, so it is natural to find a way to make the court aware of this."

  Chu Nanzhi roughly understood what he meant: "So you don't want to be selected into Xiaolian and send all the places to the imperial court"

   "Bullshit."

  Lin Jinxiao interrupted her angrily: "Why didn't you make a selection, and answered all the policy questions completely, and there is no problem with the reputation review."

   As for talent and learning, let His Majesty take it easy.

  Chu Nanzhi frowned: "But you're not worried about being called lazy by ginseng?"

   "Send so many people to Beijing at once, I'm afraid some people will think that I accept bribes wantonly and sell officials and nobles."

  Lin Jinxiao showed a look of indifference: "In this way, His Majesty will definitely send imperial envoys to investigate, and the whole story will be conveyed to His Majesty's ears."

   "You are such a cunt"

  Chu Nanzhi held the last word in his heart and didn't dare to say it. Seeing the sinister eyes projected from him, he quickly changed his words: "What a clever ghost."

  Since this is the case, His Majesty and the officials who have been screened and assessed will have a headache.

Lin Jinxiao enjoyed her words of praise very much, and said with a satisfied smile: "What you said just now also reminded me that if you want those wealthy gentry to lower land rent willingly, and lose a lot of money in vain every year, it is natural to give them some sweetness It’s not a big deal to give the children of their clan a few reputations of filial piety and scholarly talent, as for whether they can be appointed in the end, it depends on their good fortune.”

   It really is a little. Yin. Forceful.

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't laugh or cry, this little boy has really grown up, and he is more and more able to play tricks.

   Although the Dahe Empire did not have a complete imperial examination system for selecting officials, no matter if it was a Xiaolian or a scholar who was recommended to the court, they had to first enter the Lang Office as a Lang official, assume the role of the palace guard, and further examine their personal abilities.

  Before Lin Jinxiao got married, he first promoted Xiaolian to Beijing and worked as a Lang Guan for a year before he got the official position of meritorious Cao Xiaoli.

  According to his practice of recommending talents in the past few times, if he comes in a regular manner, the princess Jinshu from Jingling City will definitely try to fulfill his wish for him.

  However, he recommends talents in this way without revealing any problems on the surface. The smart Princess Jinshu will definitely notice that he is deliberately perfunctory, and all students waiting to enter Beijing will undergo the most stringent assessment.

   Cough, I'm afraid I can only return to the original place if I don't have some outstanding points.

  After all, in ancient times, they were selected as scholars at a young age, and there were not a few people who had never been an official in their lives.

   "I really can't play with this ugly little boy."

  Chu Nanzhi couldn't help sighing secretly.
