"Although the first thing will encounter resistance, it is not particularly difficult to handle. As long as Longtuge draws up the corresponding laws and regulations, and then the Dali Yuan and the Ministry of Education will strictly implement them, even if you encounter opposition The voice can also be suppressed forcibly by relying on the power of the court."

"But the key lies in the second point, how to recover the large amount of land that has been merged. If the government buys the land according to the current land price, I roughly estimate that it will cost more than one billion taels of silver, which is completely unaffordable by the current treasury. Even if it can be afforded one day in the future, this kind of practice will seriously damage the national finances, which is really inappropriate."

"However, if the funds are not funded by the government, but are forcibly withdrawn through government orders, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the world. Your Majesty's new laws and taxes have greatly touched the interests of these landlords and gentry. If you do this again, it will be equivalent to making these People are roasting on the stove, so there is no guarantee that they will not jump over the wall in a hurry."

"But now that the feudal town has been initially established, all industries are flourishing, and the country's economy is developing well, if we continue to suffer from this unstable fluctuation, the gain will outweigh the gain!" Fan Li rationally analyzed.

Yan Hao nodded. In fact, he also knew that this matter was not easy to deal with. Otherwise, the land annexation issue would have been resolved during the New Deal, and it would not have been left until now.

But this problem is like a thorn in his throat, and it will always make Yan Hao uncomfortable, so it is better to solve it sooner than later, but if even Fan Li can't think of a good solution for a while, who else can he trust?

At this time, a person suddenly flashed in Yan Hao's mind.

This person is not a historical genius, nor is he an important cabinet minister, but just a very ordinary local official—Mu Yuqi of Jizhou Prefecture!

The reason why Yan Hao thought of him was precisely because during the conversation that day, Yu Qi proposed to Yan Hao the idea of ​​"high salary to support honesty", which fully demonstrated that this person has extraordinary knowledge.In addition, this person has worked in the local area for a long time, and has more dealings with local gentry and landlords than the central bureaucrats. He must also know more about the practice in this area, and he may have some good suggestions.

So Yan Hao asked Yu Xinghuai who was also in charge of personnel affairs: "Yu Aiqing, did Jizhou Zhou Mu give a memorial to the court before?"

Yu Xinghuai said: "Yes! Your Majesty, I was just about to tell you about this person. Mr. Yu Shitai Di Gang has been struggling with how to better curb corruption, and Yu Qi's opinion opened our hearts all at once. Ideas! His memorial was approved by the cabinet half a month ago after we discussed it. This man has extraordinary knowledge, and I was just about to ask His Majesty how to use him."

Yan Hao said: "That's very good, then I'll refer him to the Sinon Mansion as a servant first. In addition, Yu Qilai will assist Fan Li's Aiqing to complete the reform of the land annexation issue. If he can make a contribution this time, I must use him again!"

"In that case, I have no objection." Yu Xinghuai agreed.

"Oh, by the way, do you have anyone for the position of governor of Lingling County?" Speaking of Yu Qi, Yan Hao thought of something again.

Yu Xinghuai replied: "Your Majesty, Lingling County belongs to a sensitive area where a rebellion has just occurred, and the post of governor is very important, so there has not been a consensus on the official department."

Yan Hao said: "Yu Aiqing, I want to recommend one person to you. Mr. He Mu, the dean of Yuelu Academy in Lingling County. This person is highly respected and full of true knowledge and insight. This person can keep this place safe as the governor of Lingling."

Yu Xinghuai said: "Since you have His Majesty's opinion, I will naturally obey it!"

Yan Hao said: "In this way, to curb the annexation of land, first, Fan Aiqing and the Dali Yuan will formulate laws and regulations. After Yu Qi arrives in Beijing, you will work together to see if you can come up with a good way to reclaim the land. Come!"

"I obey the order!" Fan Li bowed his head.

Chapter 247

"Then now it's the turn to reform and select scholars, Yu Aiqing, what's your opinion on this?"

Yu Xinghuai apparently had no idea about this question, but Yan Hao asked him, and he couldn't answer anything, so he was stunned for a long time before saying:

"Your Majesty, I think that maybe we can change the traditional stereotyped method of selecting scholars, and change it to a method that combines examinations and recommendations from the local government. This way, we may be able to select talents who have both ability and political integrity, and who have a certain reputation in the local area..."

"Stop, stop." Yan Hao quickly stopped when he heard that Yu Xinghuai's words were getting more and more outrageous.

"Yu Aiqing, you are trying to go the opposite direction!"

What Yu Xinghuai said was the Jiupin Zhongzheng system in the Wei and Jin Dynasties in history!This method sounds nice, and when the local government recommends outstanding talents, in fact, these opportunities finally fall into the hands of aristocratic families, forming the so-called "high-rank no poor family, low-rank no noble family", which completely violates Yan Hao's rationality of talent selection original intention.

We must know that the emergence of the imperial examination system in history was a subversion of the nine-rank Zhongzheng system, which greatly improved the efficiency of the selection of officials in the ancient feudal dynasty, and also gave more opportunities for the poor and poor scholars to enter official careers.If there is any system in ancient China that is ahead of the world, then the imperial examination system is definitely worth mentioning.

After all, the modern civil servant selection system, to put it bluntly, is also a variant of the imperial examination system!Therefore, the examination system itself is a very fair and reasonable system, and it should not be changed substantially at all, but some fine-tuning should be made on its specific content.

So Yan Hao taught Yu Xinghuai: "Xinghuai, your way of thinking is outrageous."

"There is nothing wrong with the imperial examination system itself. The key lies in the form of the examination. How can we make some small innovations. I can give you some suggestions, such as adding some subjects such as arithmetic, philosophy, and administrative simulation. For example, in addition to the competition In addition, set up an interview link to examine the overall quality of officials."

When Yu Xinghuai heard this, his eyes lit up, and he was very inspired and said: "Wonderful, Your Majesty's opinion! I will go back and make a plan according to Your Majesty's opinion."

Yan Hao waved his hand and said: "Go, go, then I will leave this matter to you."

"As for the management of Jianghu affairs." Yan Hao glanced at Xu Kun, the general manager of the East Factory, "There is no problem with the people and supplies of the imperial court. The Jinyiwei of the East Factory is a ready candidate."

Xu Kun followed Yan Hao's words and said: "The key point is that we don't have ready-made martial arts skills at hand, so we can't cultivate martial arts masters belonging to the imperial court."

In fact, it is not that there are no martial arts props in the system mall. On the contrary, there are corresponding martial arts and natural treasures for cultivating martial arts masters, including some first-class weapons.However, these also require a large number of points to redeem.

So after all, how to increase points is the top priority.After all, Yan Hao can get to where he is today. If he relied on his own talents, it would be a compliment. It wouldn't be because of the invincible Great Faint Lord System, which would allow him to do the foolish things comfortably and make the country grow stronger. !

At this time, a deep voice came from below. It turned out to be Li Jing, who had been listening to the cabinet discussions below, saying, "Your Majesty, the last general has an idea."

"General Li, please tell me."

"Your Majesty, I don't know anything about Jianghu, but I also know that this is a group of people who practice martial arts. I guess, since they are people who practice martial arts, they must have a competitive heart, and they may disagree with the government's decree." Listen, but if His Majesty announces a competition for martial arts masters in the world, and at the same time promises great rewards, people in the martial arts world will definitely participate enthusiastically."

"At that time, our imperial court can take this opportunity to discuss with the various sects. With His Majesty's imperial decree and rewards from the imperial court, they will definitely not be as rebellious and disobedient as before!"

"Well, this method is fine!" Yan Hao glanced at Li Jing appreciatively, he didn't expect Li Jing to be so wise in handling these matters as a warrior.

Isn't the plan proposed by Li Jing the "No. [-] Martial Arts Association in the World" that appeared in many novels and also in the comic "Dragon Ball"!This kind of grand gathering of martial artists from all over the world is indeed an excellent way to gather martial arts forces for negotiation and rectification.

So Yan Hao immediately decided: "Okay, then this matter will be handled according to what General Li said. The martial arts conference will be led by the military department, and you will be led by General Li. The military department will be responsible for the security and order at that time, and the treasury will be responsible for funding. As for the task of notifying the various sects and idle warriors, it will be handed over to Dongchang, and it must be done as soon as possible."

Li Jing, Fan Li and Xu Kun each led the decree.

Of course, cooperating with Zhengdao sects to build martial arts strength is only a temporary solution. The fundamental solution is to form the imperial court's own team of martial arts masters, which requires Yan Hao to earn more points to exchange for corresponding props.

Thinking of this, Yan Hao said: "In this way, the four main directions of the court's work in the future will be determined in this way. I also ask you to work together."

"The matter of the imperial court is finished, so let me talk about some private matters. After traveling in the south, I deeply feel that the world is big and wonderful, but I am really bored living in the capital for a long time. If I am bored, it will not be conducive to handling political affairs. .”

"So I want to build a large forest garden in the suburbs of Beijing, imitating the ancient kings, and put all kinds of birds and beasts in it. Not only can the royal family visit it in their spare time, but it can also be used as a place for hunting and playing. Wouldn't it be fun?"

When the ministers heard it, co-authoring our emperor is both political affairs and entertainment. After talking about political affairs, he immediately thought about how to have fun?So they all smiled wryly.

Chapter 248 Perfect Reason

Ge Jianzhang tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know the scale of the 'Shanglin Garden' you mentioned?"

Yan Hao then recounted to everyone the scene of the extremely luxurious Shanglin Garden built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in history. Of course, the basis is mainly from Sima Xiangru's famous work "Shanglin Fu", which mentioned "Shark Dragon The sights of "red Chi" and "the sound of fish and turtles" really shocked readers of all ages.

Therefore, since the task proposed by the system is called "Shanglin Safari", instead of asking him to build a zoo casually, the scale must reach the same level as the real Shanglin Garden in history, otherwise it may be just a waste of work. Can't complete the task.

After listening to Yan Hao's description, everyone was dumbfounded.

Ge Jianzhang said: "The Shanglin Garden mentioned by your Majesty is the second most expensive construction project. The key is that these rare and exotic animals are difficult to buy with money. You need to send people to the mountains, rivers and swamps of the world to search and catch them. I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent in this way."

"Since His Majesty intends to use force against the Western Regions, the next military expenditure may not be small, and if such a large project is launched at the same time, I am afraid that the treasury will not be able to bear it."

Yan Hao said dissatisfiedly after hearing this: "Ge Aiqing, you are serious. We fought a battle with tens of thousands of people last year. Is the military expenditure of these 10 people still unclear? 5 million taels of silver It can definitely be done within the country. Now that the national inventory of silver exceeds 2000 million, why is it that this money is not willing to be given to me?"

"This..." Ge Jianzhang lowered his head and dared not respond.

"My dear friends." Yan Hao raised his voice, "It's not that you don't know my character. When it's time to worry about the country and the people, I won't neglect political affairs, but I still can't afford to enjoy things like this. Otherwise, I would like this Isn’t it a pity that you are still as tired as a dog every day in the world?”

All the ministers were helpless after hearing this, Yan Hao had already said it so bluntly: I just want to build a zoo for fun, I am happy.What can they do?I had no choice but to follow orders.
