"So for my father, more than 10,000 mu of fertile land is nothing compared with your future and status?"
"In addition, my father will wake you up. When you become an official, you should be a good official. Don’t violate the law and discipline, especially corruption … Let’s have silver. We don’t need you to corrupt the silver. You know, the bigger your official is, the better your business will become and the more your income will become …"
"So let’s Li Guren officer is not the silver, but the identity and status … If it is the money, then the officer should not go home to help his father do business before it is too late … Is that clear?"
After Li Xinwen’s words, the two sons directly fell into deep thought.
In the end, to their surprise, the two sons not only agreed that Li Xinwen should give fifteen thousand mu of fertile land to the Wangfu, but also decided to add the family precept that officials should not violate the law and discipline and corruption …
Just do it. Early the next morning, they came to Wangfu with fifteen thousand mu of land title deed …
If 15,000 mu of fertile land is converted into silver, it will be 150,000, which is nothing to the wealthy Wangfu nowadays, but for an ordinary businessman, 152,000 silver is definitely a very large sum of silver.
All this was disturbed as soon as Wangfu started to levy a levy.
Especially when he learned that Li Xinwen’s two children had passed the examination, they were going to ask the official news that the defender was looking for a face and showed a look of interest directly. Without thinking, he called the two men into the palace and planned to ask them why they had made so many fertile fields at one time.
Weizheng a pair of clever eyes staring at two people dare not have the slightest hide directly to Li Xinwen reason to say out the night before last.
Then quietly in the lobby of Wangfu with anxiety and full head sweat.
Through their expressions, Wei Zheng affirmed that they were telling the truth. It wasn’t long before a carefree smile came out of Wei Zheng’s mouth and said to the two men, "Very good, very high. You Li family are indeed businessmen from generation to generation who will do business. After listening to your answer, Wang had a little idea of meeting your father …"
In the face of Wei Zheng’s praise, the two men were uneasy and finally calmed down
Calm down first, big boy! Directly a face of gratitude said "report if my father can see report your father will be very happy …"
"Wang Yiding will get a chance to meet your father, because your father is not only a qualified businessman, but also helped Wang Peiyang with two talents …" Two pairs of eyes full of excitement looked at Wei Zhengyi and pointed something. After that, they seemed to think of something and continued.
"As far as the king knows, both of you got good grades in this examination, a comprehensive second place and an arithmetic second place. Since you are here today, the king will tell you your official position and make your father happy when you get back …"
Speaking of which, Wei Zheng’s face was directly covered with seriousness and a face of majesty announced
"The second king in the comprehensive ranking of Li Xin’s Chinese Education Examination decided that you should guarantee that the magistrate is five days … the king will give you five days to prepare, and then the horse will rush to Baoding …"
"Li Xinguang won the second place in arithmetic in the examination, and the king decided to give you six official titles in the North King’s Palace. The specific position was decided by the Prime Minister Zhou Daren and the Deputy Prime Minister Zhou Lao, and they also reported to the Palace five days later …"
Everyone, including Li Xinwen, didn’t expect that the North King’s Palace was really eclectic. Two descendants who had never worked as officials and businessmen became officials with the results of the HKCEE. Not only that, but there was also a magistrate with a heavy hand.
The news of the two positions has just opened in Beijing, but it has become a sensation again in the whole North Zhili.
At the same time, a news spread rapidly in the northern Zhili territory.
There is a very important reason why the Li family’s two CCBA meetings are so well received by Wangfu in North Wang xin besides their good results in the examination. The Li family gave more than 10,000 mu of fertile land in their hands to Wangfu to support the land reform in Wangfu North Zhili.
It is because of these lands that Wangfu made an exception to the Li family.
In the face of these messages, some people believe and some people don’t believe.
But whether they believe it or not, their minds are moved.
In particular, those businessmen whose families passed the examination directly followed suit and gave Juan the fertile land at home.
They are not afraid of 10,000 in their eyes, but they are afraid of 11,000. These rumors are true, but they didn’t go out with their fertile Tian Juan. Didn’t they lose out by passing the examination …
This led to the North Wangfu getting a full 3.95 million mu of fertile land in just five days without spending a silver or two.
In the face of this result, Kelly Y Zhou didn’t know why Weizheng would suddenly give the Li family two sons an office on a whim.
So a trace of emotion directly from Kelly Y Zhou’s mouth …
"Ginger is great …"
Chapter five hundred and ninety-two Three factions separation
Kelly Y Zhou, the Wangfu Council, is reporting to Weizheng with a full face of excitement that Wangfu has harvested in the past few days.
After that, the topic will be directly transferred to the descendants of these businessmen who have passed the examination.
Smiling all over the face, Wei Zheng looked at Kelly Y Zhou’s face and was quickly covered by seriousness. Then he asked Wei Zheng, "Report, now that the whole northern Zhili and Shandong governments at all levels are almost out of service, since the examination has ended, is Wangfu going to let the local governments run quickly …"
"But the sooner the better …" Wei Zheng answered this idea without thinking.
Then Kelly Y Zhou and others continued to add, "Wang Peng Wang Daren, you are responsible for the promotion of all civil and military officials in the North Wangfu. If you put it in the court, it will be the so-called official department. You must take the lead for five days and come up with a specific plan. Of course, if you have any difficulties, report it directly to the Prime Minister or the king. We will definitely cooperate and support you …"
"Please rest assured that I will come up with a specific plan in five days … yes …" Wang Pengda promised that a little hesitation followed to his face at the same time.
Faced with this situation, Wei Zheng directly said, "What is it?"
"Report passed the examination. Most of these people have merchant backgrounds, descendants of businessmen and no official experience. I’m worried that suddenly giving them a commission will cause problems …" Wang Peng asked with a face of concern.
As soon as the voice fell, Wang Yang, the deputy prime minister, added, "Your Majesty, I also have this concern. We all know that businessmen are the most profit-seeking group. Let’s not talk about whether they have this ability. I’m worried that they will put businessmen in the hands of the government to facilitate their own business rather than directly embezzle money …"
"It’s very likely that businessmen can do anything if they want to earn money in their eyes …" In addition to being a businessman, Zhou Changjun and Zhou Lao, including Kelly Y Zhou, all of them are worried about their heavy businessmen rather than directly expressing their opposition.
Seeing this, Wei Zheng’s face directly reveals a meaningful smile.
Because with the strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army getting stronger and stronger, more and more people are occupying the territory, and they are slowly starting to have their own factions.
Just from those words, Wei Zheng clearly felt that these confidants had been divided into three factions …
Zhou Yuanshou has been following his veteran faction …
Wang Pengshou joined officials from the imperial court …
In the last faction, Zhou Lao was the first to promote the status of businessmen, and Wei Zheng specially selected some descendants of businessmen …
Of these three factions, the Yuan-old school of Zhou Yuan is the biggest one because it controls most of the military strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army and many key positions of the Wangfu.
Wang Pengshou, a former court official, is an indispensable and powerful force, although he doesn’t have a good position, because there are too many people and they are all grass-roots and middle-level officials.
Yu Zhou Laoshou’s faction is undoubtedly the weakest of the three factions because of its small number and its success in economy and taxation.
But this situation is obviously about to break at this moment.
Because most of these people have merchant backgrounds after passing the examination, once they are officials and are entrusted by the Wangfu, they will not hesitate to be assigned to Zhou Lao’s school with Zhou Lao.
Under such circumstances, it is suspected that the strength of Zhou Lao’s faction will greatly increase more than that of Wang Pengshou’s faction …
Of course, there is no objection to this situation.
Because of Wei Zheng, I clearly remember that Mao once said that where there are people, there will be struggles. What’s worse, if you are such a big palace, if you really unite and have no struggles, then the person you really have to worry about is yourself.
Thought of here, the thoughtful expression on Wei Zheng’s face was directly covered with laughter.
Glanced at the different expressions in front of him and then asked directly …
"What do you mean is that when businessmen become officials, they will certainly embezzle and make money for themselves … In that case, the king will ask Zhou Lao … As far as the king knows, Zhou Lao is also a businessman. Look at how much money Zhou Lao’s deputy prime minister position has made …"
In the face of Wei Zheng’s bloody questioning, Wang Peng and others showed a very embarrassed expression, because they clearly felt from Wei Zheng’s questioning that Wei Zheng had clearly understood what they had just worried about.
Of course, at this moment, there is no time and opportunity for him to regret.
Zhou Lao Weizheng, who is already white-haired, asked the big answer directly, "Don’t I dare not say it, but one thing I can guarantee is that Zhou Changjun has never taken a silver or two from Wangfu since I was weighed by you. Not only did I not take a silver or two, but I also put almost two thousand silver in it for more than a year …"
"According to the regulations of Wangfu, when I go out to work, all the classics are from the governor’s office, but many times I take my own silver to avoid trouble …"
"It’s even more ridiculous to facilitate the business of Zhoujia. I just want to facilitate the business of Zhoujia outside the control area of Wangfu. There is no way …"
"Finally, I would like to add that the Zhou family can earn less than three hundred and two thousand silver profits from all over the country every year. I have a silver flower root and there is no need to corrupt the Wangfu silver …"
After Zhou Lao finished, Wang Peng and others came to be embarrassed, and his face became even more embarrassing at this moment.
However, giving these people a lesson has further improved the strength of this school of Wangfu in Zhou Lao, and Wei Zheng is not going to let this matter go.
Zhou old saying just finished Wei Zheng interface continued
"Zhou Lao, as far as Wang knows, many people are studying for promotion and making a fortune. Since you are not promoted and making a fortune, what is your purpose as an official?"
Zhou Lao replied without thinking, "Leave a good name for Guangzong Yaozu …"
"Report should know that the tiger and leopard army didn’t come to the big dynasty. Although our businessmen are rich, they are the people with the least status and status. A small chief in the government can bully our businessmen …"
"That’s why we’ve always wanted to be a businessman, but it’s almost impossible because of the imperial system …"
"At this moment, your arrival gave us businessmen a hope that we would have an identity and status and no longer be inferior …"
"So what we do is to be an official. Please leave a good name for the inferior status of businessmen …"
Zhou Lao said that the defender’s eyes were directly transferred to Wang Pengshen.
Regardless of Wang Peng’s increasingly embarrassing face, he directly asked, "Wang Daren, you are in charge of all officials in Wangfu who violate the law and discipline and corruption … it seems that you are in charge of it. Don’t say that the king asked you how many officials you have taken in the past six months … You know that in the past six months, the king has given these officials various salaries that are more than three times that of the court, and it is more than that. It proves that these people want to be officials for promotion and wealth instead of doing things for the people who honor their ancestors …"
After Weizheng finished, Wang Peng directly stared blankly for half a day on the spot and could not speak.
At this time, the voice of Wei Zheng rang again. "Why can’t Wang Daren say anything … or is it because in the past six months, no civil and military officials in the whole Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces have been investigated for corruption?"
