Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

In terms of military power, the military power directly or indirectly held by Donggong now exceeds one-third of that of Datang.Originally, the Palace of the Prince of Qin was convenient for civil servants in the imperial court, and it was almost blank. Even Chu Suiliang, Chu Liang, and others were just a small secretary, the Secret Pavilion, and other personnel's attitudes were vacillating. .

What ideals, what benefit the world, what restore the country, what for the common people of the world, these are all imaginary.Only tangible benefits, this is the most real thing.Without enough interests, the hearts of the entire group and organization will be scattered. Similarly, if the hearts of the people are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt even more miserable.

Although it was unreasonable for Confucius to punish Shaozhengmao, his tactics were treacherous, but because of this sword, the officials in power were afraid, and the market was safe.Now Li Yuan wants to imitate the sages, practice power and hegemony, kill Ling Jing to frighten Dou Jiande, and disperse the hearts of civil and military people in Hebei.

Of course, it is inevitable that people in the world will be dissatisfied with being executed without guilt, so Li Yuan set up such a situation.It is true that Ling Jing knew the Turks and wanted to conspire against him. Once Li Shimin cooperates and asks Chu Liang to imitate Ling Jing's handwriting, don't say that Ling Jing can't explain it, and he will die, even Dou Jiande will not be spared.

Although I understand the truth, Chu Liang is not the only one who is good at imitating other people's handwriting. Yu Shinan in the secret pavilion is also good at imitating other people's handwriting. However, once Chu Liang did not cooperate under Li Shimin's instruction, Li Yuan could go to Yu Shinan. In this case, Yu Shinan might take Ling Jing's head to show his sincerity.

Seeing that Li Yuan didn't agree at all, Li Shimin really didn't know what to do.

If Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie were hidden in the snow, whether they would have any complaints in their hearts, whether they would have any ideas, Li Shimin was not sure, the key was that this would send a signal to the generals of the Qin Palace, and Li Shimin's future was bleak.

Officialdom is actually like the stock market in later generations.Everyone seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages.Once there is any disturbance, it will cause a lot of panic.As long as the emperor shows his favor to a minister, he will be very popular immediately, and if a minister is degraded, he will become very popular.

The reality is so cruel.

Speaking of which, it's not that Li Shimin has never been defeated, nor has he been on the bench. The key point is that when he was on the bench before, his Qin Palace was full of the original team. Everyone knew the bottom line and had absolute confidence in him.

However, the key is that he has not known Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, Xie Yingdeng, and Niu Junda for a long time now. Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, and them all have "convictions". Immediately drop the pick and quit.Now, Li Shimin can't even give them a thousand soldiers, what will happen to them?I really can't tell.

To say that Wei Zheng of the East Palace is trusted by Li Jiancheng, and he is also Li Mi's confidant. He used to be the brains of the Wagang generals, but now Li Shimin is most worried that Wei Zheng will come forward and pull Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, and Xie Yingdeng into the East Palace camp. Go, that would be a fatal blow to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin drank the grape wine in his arms, but felt extremely bitter, and his head was even more empty.

In a daze, I don't know where my soul is, and I don't know how long I sat there.

Li Shimin finally came to his senses, he asked the eunuch who was serving beside him, "Where is the father now?"

The eunuch bowed and said, "Reporting to His Royal Highness King Qin, Your Majesty is currently meeting Chen Consort Chen at the Linchao Pavilion!"

"Send a word for Gu, King Qin will live up to his father's entrustment!" At this time Li Shimin has turned the corner, everything is false, and now he only needs to play one role well, and that is the most obedient son.

……

In the Linchao Pavilion of Ganquan Palace, Li Yuan took Pei Ji, a warrior from the Ministry of Industry, to discuss with Chen Ying about the issue of Chen's steel workshop.To put it simply, Li Yuan wanted to hear Chen Ying's opinion on whether to hang his steel, Jiafang, and Nufang under the Weapons Supervisor, or under the Ministry of Industry.In fact, whether it is the weapons supervisor or the Ministry of Industry, they all want to win this golden rooster that can only lay eggs.

Because the annual profit of these steel workshops is as high as more than one million guan, which is almost equivalent to one-third of Datang's treasury revenue.No matter who it is, if they get these properties, even if it's just for business operation, they can achieve success and get promoted and make a fortune.After some disputes, Li Yuan still prefers Chen Ying's cheap cousin-in-law, Li Yuan's old friend, Shangshu samurai Xun of the Ministry of Industry.However, now Li Yuan still needs to listen to the expert Chen Ying's opinion before making a final decision.

Chen Ying heard why Li Yuan called him here, thought for a while, looked at the warrior and asked, "Wu Shangshu, if all these workshops are placed in the Ministry of Industry, what disadvantages will the Ministry of Industry have?"

When Chen Ying asked Samurai this, it was actually not embarrassing him, but to see if Samurai was the right candidate. He must not make a great leap forward in industry. In terms of the times, it is still the advanced technology of the times.

If the work model of the Ministry of Industry is followed, it is very likely that good things will be turned into bad things. At least the two blast furnaces of Chen Ying may not be able to exert their original efficiency at all.

The samurai thought for a while and said: "The biggest disadvantage of the Ministry of Industry is that our Ministry of Industry has a weak base of experience in large-scale production. The skills of the craftsmen in the existing workshops are not high. After taking over, they may face the lack of high-level Artisan's obstacle."

You know how to do it, Chen Ying said in his heart.But his face remained calm, and he said: "So, Wu Shangshu knows the craftsmen's skills in the Ministry of Industry quite well?"

"I once observed several workshops in the Ministry of Industry for more than three months." Samurai Xun said proudly.

"So that's the case." Chen Ying nodded again, and said, "Then tell me, how should we solve this problem?"

Hearing Chen Ying's question, and seeing Li Yuan's expectant eyes, the warrior said with eloquence, "I think there are several ways. First, retain all the craftsmen in the original workshop and improve their salary... ..."

Before the samurai could finish speaking, Chen Ying interrupted: "I'm afraid it will be a bit embarrassing to promote their treatment!"

"Embarrassment?" Li Yuan asked very curiously: "What's so embarrassing about this? Each of their workshops, what you call the factory director, is directly appointed as the official seventh-rank order, and the second is from the seventh-rank. Managers and craftsmen at all levels And so on."

Chen Ying suddenly said without surprise: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not enough. When I established the workshop, I divided the craftsmen into three classes and nine classes. The third class is the lowest, and they are craftsmen. The three-month apprenticeship period is over. , automatically become a third-class craftsman, after one year, he will be promoted to a second-class craftsman, and for more than three years, he will be promoted to a first-class craftsman. , second-class craftsman, first-class craftsman, the highest level is a craftsman, and the first-class craftsman is the highest. The salary I give them is that the annual salary of a first-class craftsman is [-] guan."

"What salary is six hundred guan?" Not to mention the dumbfounded warrior, even Li Yuan was shocked.

With the official position of a warrior, his monthly salary is actually 370 renminbi, or 240 guan. After a year, plus the salary of 6000 shi, plus [-] acres of land, in fact, all his legal income is also It's only [-] coins, but the money of the Tang Dynasty is much more valuable than the renminbi of later generations. The salary of third-rank officials is about [-] yuan compared to renminbi.

However, Chen Ying actually gave the first-class craftsman a salary of 250 guan, which is equivalent to 240 million yuan in later generations (the calculation in this article uses the average value of the forum, that is, during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, copper coins were guan, which is about [-] yuan [-] eight pieces).

It is actually very reasonable for Chen Ying to offer such a high salary to the craftsmen.Because the price of steel in this era is too high. A catty of high-carbon steel can be sold for two hundred yuan, which is about 800 yuan. The price of steel in this era is frighteningly high.There is nothing wrong with offering such a high salary, because the salaries of employees in monopoly industries are already high.

Calculated based on the salaries of employees in China's financial industry, their average salary is really not high, about 8000 yuan, but they can't stand the high bonuses, with an annual income of 20+.

Hearing this, Li Yuan didn't know what to say to Chen Ying.

You, a craftsman, offers a salary that is twice as high as the salary of a first-rank official in the dynasty. If the news is really spread, won't there be a stir in the sky?

PS: I'm sorry, it's a bit late, it's too late, as I was writing, Lao Cheng fell asleep.I just wrote it now, so sorry!

Chapter 20 Consort Chen's Confucian Confucianism (One more update)

Chapter 20 Consort Chen's Confucian Confucianism (One more update)

Those who stand at the top of the pyramid will always be the ones with the highest income.In Chen Ying's original workshop, six first-class craftsmen each received an annual salary of 47 guan, [-] second-class craftsmen had an annual salary of [-] guan, and [-] third-class craftsmen received an annual salary of [-] guan.

With 66 of them, they can get 8000 and [-] guan.

The annual salary of first-class craftsmen is [-] guan, the annual salary of second-class craftsman is [-] guan, and the annual salary of third-class craftsman is [-] guan.The annual salary of first-class craftsmen is [-] guan, and the annual salary of second-class craftsman is [-] guan.The third-class craftsman has an annual salary of only ten guan.

However, there are more than [-] general workers, and their annual salary is almost [-] yuan. The gap is not usually small.At this time, Li Yuan felt that Chen Ying's steel industry was a bit hot.

Scholars studied hard for several years and worked as officials in the palace or prefectures and counties for several years before they had the chance to be appointed as magistrates. It took more than ten years.However, as the magistrate of Qipin County, all the salaries, salaries, employees, servants' money and various benefits for a year are all added together. If they are not corrupt and accept bribes, the salary they can get is equivalent to about 35 yuan, which is about the RMB of later generations. Around 15.

This income level must not be considered low in the Tang Dynasty.But the salary of an imposing seventh-rank magistrate is only equal to that of a first-class craftsman.An illiterate rough man who has worked diligently in the workshop for three years, as long as he does not make serious mistakes, can be promoted to a first-class craftsman. Even if it is done every three years, each evaluation is excellent, and each time you can be promoted to a higher level, but it will take 33 years to be promoted from the ninth rank to the seventh rank.

In other words, the official career of many officials will stop at the level of Zheng Qipin.

A craftsman can actually get so much money, and they can get wages on a monthly basis when officials' salaries cannot be paid in full on schedule, which can't help but make scholars angry.If these industries are included in the imperial court system, I am afraid that the officials in the palace and the various governments will definitely be extremely dissatisfied with this and complain a lot.

As a private person, no matter how much salary Chen Ying pays to the craftsmen, no one will say anything. However, as the imperial court, there is a system to follow. Rice grain, this is a rule that has been formed since the Qin and Han Dynasties.

Chen Ying can do it, can the court do it?Can the samurai Xun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, bear such pressure from public opinion?

Listening to Chen Ying's eloquence, the warrior Xun remained silent for a long time.Although he is not from the family, he knows how powerful the family is and how powerful the public opinion is.

Is Yang Guang really stupid?There must be a conclusion in later generations, this girl is a fool.But the samurai Xun was born in this era, so he knows more.If someone would ask, the warrior Xun would definitely say with mixed feelings: "Yang Guang is a fool!"

But he would definitely add two words in his heart: "It's strange."

However, because Yang Guang adopted the imperial examination system and used the imperial examination to select officials, he offended all the powerful families in the world, so the direction of public opinion changed overnight.

This is true for Yang Guang, but does the warrior Xun really dare to do this?Once he does this, the entire public opinion will soon turn around, and he will bear the brunt of it and become the target of public criticism. ,

A samurai can not care about his own reputation, but he cannot ignore the consequences.The aristocrats used public opinion and conspiracy to defeat the Sui Dynasty. If there is another attack, the Tang Dynasty will be over by itself.

After a long time, the warrior Xun looked at Chen Ying and said with a wry smile: "Chen Yingma, I am the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, but I am sitting on top of the accumulated salary."

Chen Ying said with a smile: "If it is not Duke Ying, who can take on this great task? His Majesty knows the hardships of Duke Ying, and His Majesty will not treat Duke Ying badly."
