Chapter 327 East, West

Once in Datang, the most lucrative position was undoubtedly the eunuch.

I believe that the charcoal seller has read it all, but the charcoal seller in reality is not much worse than the one in the poem.

In the past year, these eunuchs have hit hardest on the two women.

For one thing, you have to be hardworking yourself to forge iron. You are surrounded by corrupt officials, so how can you ask other officials to be honest.

Secondly, using the most severe measures to attack the eunuchs around him can also achieve the effect of killing a chicken for the monkey to see.

For this reason, as long as there are eunuchs involved in corruption inside and outside the palace, neither of the two women will show mercy.

That's why the two women were immediately loved by so many people when they arrived in the East and West cities of Chang'an.

Because the people who usually oppressed them are gone now.

Since the two new majesties came to Datang, it seems that no one has come to bully the poor.

You said, can such two girls not be loved by others?

Except for some officials who don't like it, there is probably no one in the world who doesn't like them.

However, on the official side, there is nothing you can do if you don't like it.

Because now there are two people in power.

As for the eunuch...

To be honest, there is no right to speak.

During this year, the number of officials giving gifts to each other has even decreased.

because……

Maybe at some point, you will be considered to have accepted bribes from others.

During this process, officials from the two places, obviously, also had sufficient 'communication'.

He said, "Is it the same on your side?"

While saying, "Basic operation, our corrupt officials have killed 10,000+."

This made the officials of Datang take a deep breath.

after all……

Whoever is an official is not corrupt.

Even if he is the prime minister of the dynasty, he is also greedy, but at their level, they will not show greed to you. Generally, they use more advanced methods. Even if they are greedy, you will not be able to tell. Is he greedy or not?

can only say……

In the future, being an official may no longer be a favorite.

On the contrary, it may become a reminder.

……

Big River State.

In Xunxing's palace.

Even Li Xueyan had to point out whether Wei Yan's route was wrong.

You know, if you don't get close to officials, but get close to the people, who will work with you in the future.

of course!

This is pure chatter.

The girls were eating lychees, a specialty picked from Lingnan.

Hearing Li Xueyan's words, Wei Yan felt something was wrong.

He replied: "Why, it seems that if I leave them, there will be no one to help me govern the country? If you want to find officials, there are many in this world. If they are not satisfied, they don't have to be officials."

"Look, I only said one sentence, and he said several sentences."

Li Xueyan said conveniently.

"Sister Xizi and Wu Cairen are really busy now, do you want to leave some lychees for them?"

Changshan Road.

"No, I've already asked someone to save it for them. This one is delicious! This one has small seeds."

With that said, Wei Yan handed the litchi to Chang Shan's mouth.

"Your Majesty, I want too."

New Town Access Road.

"You won't peel yourself."

Just when Xincheng was about to lose his temper, Wei Yan immediately said, "Just kidding, just kidding, all of them."

"Wouldn't it taste better if I put it in the refrigerator for a while?"

Cheng Yang thought of a good idea.

Then he ordered people to do it.

Wei Yan also said: "You can't freeze it for too long, and don't be able to bite it when the time comes."

"This one has worms on it."

After Gao Yang just peeled off one, he also said.

"Normal, that's why I told you to look carefully before eating."

In this era of complete absence of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, bugs are inevitable, but as long as there are not too many, and you can’t eat them all, then there is no problem.

Wei Yan took a rough look and found that there were bugs in at most two out of ten, which was not bad.

This year, let's just make do with it. Next year, when the Lingnan palace is built, you can take them directly up the tree to pick it.

of course!

What Li Xueyan said was not without reason.

therefore……

In addition to eating by himself, Wei Yan then bought a large number of lychees from Lingnan, ranging from first-grade to fifth-grade lychees.

As for the fifth grade and below, since there are too many, there is no way.

However, this reminded Wei Yan of slightly adjusting the salaries of officials.

It's time to set a relatively appropriate standard.

Moreover, since he was working for himself, he naturally couldn't treat him too badly.

This time, the salaries of most officials should be able to get a certain increase.

As this wave of lychees went on, incidentally, there were also certain adjustments to official salaries, including almost doubling the salary of even ninth-grade officials.

It was Wei Yan who had to bleed some blood, after all, the money must come from what he earned.

When Wei Yan mentioned the salary, the lower-level officials applauded.

after all……

There are still many officials at the grassroots level, and some officials don't even have the money to rent a house in Chang'an City.

After learning about this, Wei Yan ordered relevant officials to build a house in Dahe Prefecture.

Because there is really no place to build in Chang'an.

Then set up a door.

In this way, the residence problem of low-level officials has also been perfectly solved.

of course!

Given so many benefits, the requirements will naturally not be low.

and……

In the next few years, Wei Yan has already made up his mind to abolish at least 30.00% of the officials.

Of course!
It is estimated that the name is definitely not directly abolished.

Anyway...

There will still be a lot of corrupt elements who do not know whether they are alive or dead. Wei Yan only needs to eliminate these people and not set up more establishments.

from now on……

The number of all official positions in China must be set according to the number planned by the imperial court.

The local government cannot increase the establishment without authorization.

Not to mention empty pay.

Local people may think that Wei Yan doesn't know at all, anyway, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and they check one by one, can Wei Yan check it out?However, if there is, Wu Cairen only needs to check it on the computer.

and so……

If Wei Yan wants to punish someone, it depends on whether he is willing or not. As long as he is willing, none of those corrupt officials can escape.

For example, small officials in some places specialize in bullying and dominating the market. They seem to ask for cards when they see people setting up stalls. It can be said that such people abound in every state and county.

This is also the target that Wei Yan made up his mind to resolutely attack.

Especially for some remote areas, this phenomenon is more common.

Anyway...

If you have time, let's clean it up.

It would definitely be a little unrealistic to clean up all at once, but the feasibility of replacing people step by step is still very high.

to this end……

After another year of rectification, these petty officials who bully and dominate the market seem to be slowly restraining themselves.

no way.

Tens of thousands of petty officials were exiled a year, and this normal person would know it was abnormal after thinking about it.

At this time, if you don't shrink back, someone will put you on the sword.

And the ministers also began to pay attention.

Who told His Majesty the news, and how did His Majesty know about it?
Therefore, many people suspected that although Wei Yan did not handle government affairs normally in the court, he might have spent most of his time on inspections.

In addition...

From the mouth of the officials of the Great Wei, it seems that this has been confirmed.

have to say.

His Majesty is still very dedicated.

In fact, Wei Yancai is not so dedicated.

He just sent the task down, and Wu Cairen would deal with it when he was free.

He usually plays with other concubines in the palace.

There is no time to look around.

But even so, Wei Yan is still very clear about the sufferings of the people.

It is the third year of integration with Datang.

Wei Yancai thought of the development of science and technology in the West, which cannot be ignored.

Now Datang was virtually strangled by himself.

But the West must also be strangled.

then……

In order to maintain his rule, Wei Yan launched an assassination plan against Western craftsmen.

To be honest, there is no burden.

after all……

None of them are our own.

in fact……

Now the West also belongs to the dark age, the people live a very depressed life, everyone must believe in the church, the pope is more like an actual emperor.

Of course, Wei Yan welcomes things like the Pope very much.

and……

They killed each other, and he was watching the show, so why not do it.

During this period, all creativity was suppressed by the church.

but!

But don't underestimate this depression.

Because the greater the depression, the greater the rebound.

Wei Yan knew very well that sooner or later, the pope would not be able to suppress the justice and anger in the hearts of the people.

to this end!

so what should I do now?
That's right!

Those who have smart brains, who like to write and tell stories, are also killed.

Anyway...

That is, whoever is the most famous among the people will die.

You can't go wrong with that.

of course!

Killing one or two people will definitely not be suspected by others. If a large number of people die for no reason, it is very suspicious.

At the beginning, Wei Yan also thought about whether to hide it, for example, arrange a love vendetta for them or something.

But then I feel...

It seems that there is no need for this at all.

after all……

No one else knew he did it.

even……

No matter how smart people are to investigate, they probably don't know that he killed them, and you have to pay attention to the motive for killing people. Who would have thought that an emperor in the far east would kill them because he didn't want to see the development of Western technology? All the wise men were killed.

They will just blame the Pope.

And the pope, of course, will not take the blame, they will definitely investigate, but even so, it is still difficult for them to wash away their grievances, and they can only be forced to fight with the new faction.

For some time to come, it may be difficult for Wei Yan to obtain huge returns from these places. After all, they may fall into war in the future.

For this reason, while doing this, Wei Yan also had to think in advance whether doing so would have any impact on his income, and if so, how he would get through it.

After some calculations.

I can only say that it's okay, anyway, in fact, the combined taxes of Datang and Wei are enough to support him and everyone else.

then……

Wei Yan started a plan to bring the West back to the Stone Age.

All blacksmiths, all artists, and all court painters were all brutally murdered by Wei Yan.

In addition...

The library is also the key object of Wei Yan's care. If this one is not on fire today, it will be that one tomorrow.

For the craftsmen who existed in the army, there was not a single one left alive.

During this period of time, almost all craftsmen were in danger.

The church is not as passive as Wei Yan imagined, they attribute all this to God's will.

Moreover, some artists, writers, and thinkers who often liked to oppose sects were called pagans.

The reason why they all died strangely was because God was angry.

For this reason, a ceremony was held, and a maiden was presented to appease the gods.

however……

The girl didn't offer it to Wei Yan at all, Wei Yandang even spat on the Pope.

Shameless!

Obviously dedicated to the Pope himself.

However, in order to let the situation go down as soon as possible, after a period of time after the pope held the ceremony, the situation of the dead person really seemed to disappear.

This also made many people believe in the Pope's words even more.

The Pope, a 60-year-old man weighing [-] pounds, suddenly felt like he was floating. This was God's will.

Of course, the Pope is not stupid, which makes him even more eager to know what's going on.

until a few years later.

Only then did a piece of news come from the east, saying that Datang seems to have been annexed by a country called Huaxia, and this Huaxia is said to be the former Great Wei.

and……

Their Majesty is said to be an immortal.

Regardless of whether the pope can understand what is called a fairy.

To be honest, when he heard the news, the Pope realized that he seemed to be a frog in a well.

The Great Wei of the East has become stronger and stronger.

of course!

It's not that they haven't attacked the East before, it's just that they just hit Persia and were beaten back.

With the support of Wei's strong military and economic strength, they have not expanded eastward for 300 years.

now……

Hearing such news again, wouldn't the Pope feel a little uneasy?

Dawei seems to have started to make a move?

It's hard to guarantee that one day it will expand to his own head. For this reason, he had to send envoys to Persia to ask for friendly exchanges.

Received a letter from the Pope, as well as cordial greetings.

Wei Yan didn't know what the other party meant, so he asked Sizi to write a letter, saying, I am not interested in the West, you will be your pope in the West, and I will be my emperor in the East, and we will not interfere.

The meaning of these words is already very straightforward. Although the Pope was very upset about getting such an impolite reply, as if he humbly begged the other party in exchange for peace, but, anyway, after reading His Majesty Huaxia After reading this letter, his heart finally felt a lot more at ease.

of course!

It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no mutual interference.

After all... Persia is the main distribution center of trade in the Western world.

This place is plundering the wealth of the West every day, which makes people jealous.

300 years ago, because of this, they launched the Crusades and were beaten into dogs by the Persians.

After being beaten up, they slowly became honest.

The pope looked deeply at the east, or...

But soon he shook his head again, after all, he didn't have a few years left to live, so why bother.

But I heard that the emperor of China lived to be [-] years old.

You said, do you want to ask him for a elixir?
Pooh!I am a believer in God.

But it seems that the so-called immortals are gods.
