But he couldn't get his head around it.

At this time, Chen Tong spoke.

Facing Li Caoyuan's doubts, Chen Tong said that there was no pressure.

Chen Tong:

“Actually, that’s exactly what I want to talk about.

Many people did not have an overall and comprehensive understanding of the social ills in the last years of the Ming Dynasty.

Do you think that Chongzhen has mastered Jinyiwei and Dongchang, so he can be the same as Emperor Hongwu and Zhu Di at that time,

How about using Jinyiwei and Dongchang to check and balance civil servants?

This is totally overthinking!

Why are Jinyiwei and Dongchang basically trash in the hands of Chongzhen?

That's because Chongzhen has no money! "

………………

what! ?

Yue Fei was stunned at this moment, is the answer so simple?

bristle:

"That's it?"

"Is it because Chongzhen has no money that Dongchang and Jinyiwei have become like trash?"

"Isn't this answer a bit too unbelievable?"

........................

At this moment, Li Shimin felt like waking up from a dream. He slapped his head and hated himself for not thinking of the economic dimension.

Qiangu Li Er (the ruler of the Ming Dynasty and the sinner):

"Is the answer that simple?"

"How can you do things without money?"

………………

Li Zicheng did not expect Tang Taizong to agree with this statement.

He couldn't help cursing inwardly, could it be that Li Shimin was also fooled by Chen Tong at this moment?

If you don’t believe this view, you deserve to be hated by your own son.

You are out of your mind!

The people do not pay:

"It's the funniest joke I've ever heard, bar none."

"Is it because Chongzhen has no money, so Jinyiwei and Dongchang can't play their roles?"

"Jinyiwei and Dongchang are bureaucratic organizations, does this have anything to do with money?"

"That statement is sheer nonsense."

"How many of you still believe in this?"

………………

Wu Zetian and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty shook their heads again and again.

They have all used the cruel staff system, so of course they understand what this spy-like agency needs.

Heart of the Illusory Sea (Eternal Emperor, World Overlord):

"Chen Tong, teach him well."

"Otherwise, this guy really won't understand for the rest of his life."

………………

Of course, Chen Tong wasn't polite. He had already disliked Li Grassland.

And the most ridiculous thing is that they always fail to find a place.

Chen Tong:

"Li Grassland, do you think it's ridiculous to say that Jinyiwei and Dongchang's strength has been greatly damaged because of lack of money?

This is because you don't understand the operating logic of Dongchang and Jinyiwei at all.

What are Dongchang and Jinyiwei?

That's the secret service.

What is the most important function of the secret service?

First, pass on information,

Second, engage in assassinations and assassinations and various spy operations.

But to realize these two functions, secret service agencies need to build a very large network.

You could call it an information intelligence network.

In ancient times, how was this kind of information and intelligence network structured?

That depends on people!

It takes money to train a spy to go undercover.

And this spy collects his own intelligence and uploads it to the higher-level department, which also requires money.

And the information was passed through layers, and when it reached the hands of the emperor, it required a huge amount of expense.

Every year, you need to support so many people to make this intelligence network play its true role. How much do you calculate?

Not to mention that you have to play the second function of spy intelligence and engage in various assassinations and assassinations, which is another huge expense.

If you don't have money, you can't even lay the basic structure of Jinyiwei and Dongchangyun.

How else do you use the functions of Jinyiwei and Dongchang?

Think about it, how much effort would it take for a piece of information to be transmitted from the emperor to the lowest-level Jinyiwei spies?

You still have to carry out the so-called secrecy, how much will it cost?

It can be said that this kind of spy agency is indeed a sharp sword of the night.

However, if you want to keep this sword extremely sharp, it also requires money to maintain it.

The reason why Chongzhen was unable to use the functions of Jinyiwei and Dongchang was because he had no money.

What is the result of having no money?

That means the intelligence network of Jinyiwei and Dongchang was completely paralyzed!

There is no basic funding for war operations.

Are you still kidding? "

………………

Chongzhen's eyes widened, and only now did he understand why Jinyiwei and Dongchang were so useless in his hands?

It turned out that the real reason was that he was poor!

It turns out that poverty is the original sin of everything.

It turns out that people are really poor and short-sighted.

Even when the emperor is poor, you cannot escape this law.

………………

Cao Cao laughed out loud, this is absolutely correct.

Friends of wives:

"Li Grassland, now I understand!"

"Chongzhen didn't abolish Jinyiwei, Chongzhen just passively castrated Jinyiwei's functions because he had no money."

"Jin Yiwei was so poor that he didn't even have any pants to wear. Can it still fulfill the function of transmitting information?"

"Can he still complete the function of monitoring the minister?"

"Can he still carry out assassination assassinations?"

"During the period of Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, that would allow Jin Yiwei to infiltrate the Mongols."

"But in the hands of Chongzhen, Jin Yiwei is estimated to be basically abolished after leaving the capital."

…………

Yang Guang was happy at this time.

Infrastructure Maniac (Eternal Ruthless Lord):

"So, if you want to be a good emperor, if you want to achieve something, you must learn the ways of miscellaneous families."

"If you don't have money, no matter how good your idea is, it won't be implemented in the end."

"Are you talking about your dreams with those spies from Jinyiwei?"

"Are you asking those fans from the East Factory to work for you for nothing?"

"Chongzhen couldn't even afford to pay others, so who would work hard for Chongzhen?"

"Although these establishments exist, who do the Jinyiwei in various places listen to in the end? Of course, whoever pays them will listen to them."

"Jin Yiwei is also human, so he has to eat!"

………………

Yue Fei's eyes widened, feeling that his three views had been refreshed.

He used to think that the most important thing to be an emperor was to be diligent in governing and caring for the people.
