Number of People

  Chapter 436 C-character volume compiled from the sixth grade

   "Bo Xiao and Daofu have both summoned you?" Qi Yongtai looked at his proud student in front of him with warm eyes, but his heart grew more and more appreciative and joyful.

  He was not afraid of how much Zheng Jizhi and Li Sancai valued wooing. This teacher-student friendship is there. Except for Qiao Yingjia who can compete with him, even Guan Yingzhen, who has been with him for a longer time, cannot compare with him.

  No way, Qiao Yingjia was the first to take a fancy to this boy and personally recommended him to himself. Without Qiao Yingjia's handwritten letter, Qingtan Academy would definitely not accept a Wu Xun student who has no foundation.

  Both Feng Ziying himself and Qi Yongtai himself have to admit that Qiao Yingjia can be regarded as Feng Ziying's benefactor and sponsor.

Guan Yingzhen was the teacher who had been with Feng Ziying the longest, but he was a step behind him, so he couldn't get past him no matter what. Zhen is from Huguang.

"Returning to Master Qi, Lord Zheng recruited his disciples to talk about the collection of sea tax rates after the establishment of the Shibo Department. In addition, he also asked about the scale of royalties and the conditions for granting franchises to merchants. My disciples feel that Master Zheng is more active than before. Too many." Feng Ziying knew that the relationship between Qi Yongtai and Zheng Jizhi was not too close.

"Well, Bo Xiao still wants to do something, but the situation is not good. He is also a smart woman who can't live without rice. The situation of arrears in Jiubian is serious, but Bo Xiao can't be completely blamed on Bo Xiao." Qi Yongtai also sighed. One sound.

  Although he has a normal relationship with Zheng Jizhi, and also believes that Zheng Jizhi must be duty-bound as the Minister of the Ministry of Finance due to the financial constraints of the imperial court, but it is not fair to attribute all the responsibility to the other party.

"If Mr. Zheng maintains this momentum, I feel that the situation can still improve." Feng Ziying nodded, "Maritime trade may drive the development of many industries in the future and provide more opportunities for the coastal people to make a living. It depends on the court and the local government. Can you seize such an opportunity?"

   "So that's why you want to go south to Nanzhili and Fujian and Zhejiang?" Qi Yongtai's opinion of Feng Ziying became better and better, and this down-to-earth style is exactly what Qi Yongtai admired.

"Well, my disciples think that Fujian, Zhejiang and Nanzhili are the main production areas of future sea trade and export goods, such as silk, tea, porcelain, paper and medicinal materials, from planting mulberry and silkworm to reeling silk and weaving silk, from planting tea From making tea to opening kilns and firing porcelain, these can bring about the livelihood of many people, it is worth investigating and understanding, and it can also make an assessment of the scale of future maritime trade.”

Qi Yongtai has always known that this disciple is very good at the current policy theory, but the current policy theory is more of a strategic layout plan, and those mentioned just now are the ways of managing the world and benefiting the people. Unexpectedly, this student is also So familiar, and seems interested too.

   Does this kid seem to be going in the direction of the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry in the future?

   But this kid has just made great achievements in military affairs. In his letter to the cabinet, Chai Ke also praised this boy as a natural handsome talent, especially specialized in military affairs.

   "According to your tone, it is not limited to Ningbo, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, but also to visit other places?" Qi Yongtai was very interested.

   "Well, such as Linqing and Dongchang Prefecture, such as Yangzhou and Jinling, as well as Suzhou, Hangzhou and Jingdezhen." Feng Ziying thought that since she was going south, she would naturally take this opportunity to take a good look around.

   "Oh? Is this Daofu's opinion?" Qi Yongtai laughed.

  Li Sancai and Qiao Yingjia are not on the right track, but they still maintain a relatively harmonious relationship with Qi Yongtai. They are both scholars from the North, but there are also closeness among scholars from the North.

Li Sancai has always had a close relationship with the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, especially the scholars in Nanzhili and Zhejiang who praised Li Sancai's performance as the governor of the water transport. People, but they are very respected in Jiangnan.

"Master Li didn't say it clearly, but he took the "Internal Reference" and talked with his disciples for a long time. He felt that Master Li was very interested in the maritime trade industry proposed by his disciples. In the industries of silk weaving, porcelain and tea making, if we can open up the situation on the sea trade road, then these industries will be able to develop greatly and absorb a large number of people to make a living."

Qi Yongtai couldn't help frowning at Feng Ziying's words, "Ziying, the south of the Yangtze River is rich, but the land is narrow and densely populated, but as long as it is a normal year, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, but our north is different. It’s right to consider the livelihood of the people in our northern regions. The porcelain industry in Jingdezhen is prosperous, but the porcelain industry in Handan, Guangping Prefecture is not bad. Don’t put your mind on Jiangnan.”

  Feng Ziying laughed, this is Master Qi reminding her of her roots.

"I understand, but after opening the sea, the sea trade that we are facing now is mainly based on Fujian and Zhejiang, so the top priority must be focused. As for the Northland side, the disciple is also thinking about how to come to Denglai and open the sea. Planning the sea trade between the Northland and Liaodong, Japan, and North Korea still needs to be carefully considered."

"Well, I would like to remind you as a teacher. Some people already feel that you are turning your elbows. If the debt proceeds are not mainly used for the defense of the Nine Frontiers and Liaodong, some people may want to clamor and criticize you." Qi Yongtai Nod.

"Master Qi, that's not enough. The disciple hasn't been formally appointed as an official yet, so he is just a good man." Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Even if I have more contact with Jiangnan, Fujian and Zhejiang, that is due to the special nature of Kaihai borrowing." The decision is not the disciple's intention to do so."

   "There are hundreds of people, all kinds of people. You are too popular now. Naturally, some people will be jealous and dissatisfied. This is inevitable. Tomorrow, the Ministry of Officials will have a text to award you to the Imperial Academy."

   "Qi Yongtai's calm words made Feng Ziying startled, "Revised? Master Qi, is there..."

  Qi Yongtai laughed, "Why, do you feel that you can't afford it, or are you flattered?"

   "Uh, indeed, the disciple was a little surprised, this compilation..." Feng Ziying found it hard to accept for a while.

He always thought that he might be dismissed from the Hanlin Academy editor. This is a regular seventh-rank official, but he has already left the hall a year and a half earlier than other Shujishi, which can be said to be a big advantage. He did not expect to be dismissed. Compiled, this really surpasses Yang Sichang and Huang Zunsu, and is only slightly inferior to the number one scholar Lian Guoshi who was dismissed a year and a half earlier.

This is really an exceptional promotion. If the removal of the official editor is just to take advantage of the shortened time, the editor is directly promoted to a level, and this level is now the second best in the same subject as him. Neither Huang Zunsu nor Yang Sichang could surpass it.

   "Originally, as a teacher, I didn't really want you to get rid of the official to edit and write. Editing and editing are enough. You have already attracted the attention of everyone. If you go too far, I'm afraid you will be hated by others."

  Qi Yongtai sighed, as if he was considering something.

My own disciple started from the Chunwei Grand Competition, and he would try the palace test and the museum selection. Every wave caused a lot of controversy, and then he made great achievements in the Western Expedition to suppress the rebellion. This is nothing to say. The imperial court has always been quite generous in military achievements Especially the military merits made by civil servants are paid more attention to.

  However, Feng Ziying was responsible for the strategy of opening up the sea to raise debt. Qi Yongtai was really worried that it would be too much to focus on him alone.

"However, the emperor thinks that you have made great contributions to your advice and suggestions on opening up the sea to raise debts. The first and second assistants also like you to remove the official and edit it, so this matter is settled. Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of War, Mr. Zheng from the Ministry of Households, and Li from the Ministry of Rites My lord, Mr. Li from the Ministry of Industry and other people all agreed, but opposed it for the teacher, so that Mr. Zhang of the Metropolitan Procuratorate said that as a teacher, you should recruit talents and not avoid relatives, and you don't have to be too rigid,..."

Qi Yongtai shook his head while sighing, obviously he felt that his disciple was too popular now, so it would be good to let him go out for a few months, to avoid the limelight, at least it would give people the feeling that this disciple was not promoted because of being valued by the court. Pull out and forget about it.

  Originally, like a sixth-rank official, there is no need to bring it to the court for discussion. According to the usual practice, officials below the fourth rank will be reported to the cabinet after being agreed by the officials. The cabinet will sign the opinion and then report to the emperor for approval.

But this was proposed by the emperor during the court meeting, which caught Qi Yongtai by surprise. The first assistant, second assistant, and several other ministers agreed. I just hope that my disciple won't get carried away because of this.

  But based on my understanding of this disciple, it is not enough, but it is true that it will inevitably attract the jealousy of many people.

   "Master Qi, does the disciple need to resign...?" Feng Ziying naturally understood Qi Yongtai's kindness, but Qi Yongtai felt a little uneasy because of his dazzling performance over the past year.

Qi Yongtai couldn't help laughing, "It's not a joke for you to play resignation from the sixth rank? Well, just go and thank you generously, but you said you want to go south to Jiangnan to be a teacher, so you still feel a little bit reluctant , but now I feel that it is just right to stay in Jiangnan for a few months and do everything you want to do. Presumably half a year can make the rumors here subside a lot."

  Feng Ziying was overjoyed, then this is a stable sixth-rank official.

To be honest, although this is a idle job from the Imperial Academy of the Sixth Rank, but it has pulled me up all of a sudden in the Pinyi. In the future, it may be transferred to the Sixth Metropolitan Procuratorate and the General Secretary of the Dali Temple, or it may be released to other places. This is a rare breakthrough, and it is even higher than the Shujishi of the same discipline or even the second place in the list.

  Of course, Master Qi also said that there will definitely be some side effects. There will be many people who are jealous, jealous, dissatisfied and criticized, so even Master Qi suggested that he go to Jiangnan as soon as possible to avoid the limelight.

   A bit late, keep up the good work! Ask for 200 votes!
