Zhu Yijun gave up his previous idea. It would be good to let Shen Shixing, who was born in Nanzhili, take the initiative in this matter. In this way, the resistance from Nanzhili would naturally be much smaller, but it would lose its grandeur.

He frankly confessed that opening up China and France was what he wanted to do. He was concerned about national policy, so the emperor should take the stand.

If we want to curb the excesses of the township party, we have to start from the emperor and make a statement that the whole country is a game of chess.

The overall situation and trend cannot always be followed. When appropriate, we should lead the trend.

Half a year after taking the throne, Zhu Yijun's mentality finally took a step further and he gained the consciousness of being the core.

Although the ministers didn't know what the emperor was thinking.

But this majestic atmosphere and powerful presentation can't help but make people praise him - Shizong's method of letting his ministers take the blame, although it is called clever, it is difficult for his ministers to agree.

On the contrary, the current young king, who is willing to inherit the country's taint, almost looks like a saint king.

Shen Shixing looked at the emperor who showed his interest and showed no shyness, and suddenly understood why this man, who was only eleven years old, could make many courtiers obey him.

Knows the pros and cons, and has the courage to do so!

Treating each other so honestly, this is how a king behaves!

Shen Shixing was stunned for a moment, then stood up, prostrated himself in the snow, and gave a big salute: "Your Majesty, I have been adopted since I was a child. My successor is the magistrate, and I have grown up in the government office."

"What I eat is the government's food, and what I receive is the kindness of the Ming Dynasty."

"I am at the center of studying classics and history, and I understand what the north and the south are as one!"

"Even if I like my relatives and my fellow villagers, I would never dare to use small favors to overturn great righteousness!"

"Now, Your Majesty has the ambition to mix up the north and the south. How dare I go against it because of my parents' petty differences?"

"I am willing to stand in front of Your Majesty to reconcile the affairs of the Central Government and the Southern Ministers!"

Shen Shixing was the first to be pressured by the emperor's words, and he had to express his stance immediately.

Even though on weekdays, there is a slight inclination towards Nan Zhili in terms of people's feelings or promotions, there is always a certain degree of restraint.

At least it cannot be contrary to the national policy, otherwise it will mean ostracizing oneself from the officialdom.

After Shen Shixing, Yang Bo did not shy away and sang praises loudly.

He stood up directly and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty is indeed a man of pure talent and perfect virtue!"

"This proposal is in harmony with heaven and will be carried out in accordance with the law! If the Kaizhong method is restarted, His Majesty's holy virtues and magical achievements will surely be remembered in history!"

It was the first time that Zhu Yijun saw Yang Bo flattering him so much. Compared to Li Zaiting, he was much more blunt.

Although he knew that this move was in the interests of the Northerners and it was normal to have such a reaction, Zhu Yijun still couldn't help but get goosebumps and quickly asked Yang Bo to sit down.

Subsequently, several cabinet ministers and Wang Guoguang also expressed their stance.

Although Yu Youding didn't know what he was here for, he still saluted with everyone.

Seeing that a consensus had been reached, Zhu Yijun couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

However, although the general direction has been set, there are still many areas for discussion.

Lu Tiaoyang reminded cautiously: "Your Majesty, although it is true that the Chinese and French systems are established, it is a matter of great righteousness."

"However, after the Kaizhong method was corrupted, it was restarted many times, including Yang Yiqing during Jiajing and Wang Chonggu during Longqing, but they could not be brought back to life."

"At that time, Pang Shangpeng was also in charge of the nine-border garrison affairs, and he neglected to list twenty matters related to the salt administration. He concentrated on re-establishing the merchant garrison. In the end, he still regretfully reported that, 'Unfortunately, it has been ruined for a long time, and it is difficult to achieve practical results.'"

"If His Majesty wants to restart the Open China Law, I'm afraid it will need to be discussed in detail."

Yan Yin's credibility has been ruined. No matter how much you shout, it will be useless. If you can't change the salt, you won't be able to change the salt.

However, if a businessman can't exchange money, who cares about what you do to benefit the country and the people?

Therefore, in addition to the central policy, it must also be implemented in practice.

Zhu Yijun nodded and said sincerely: "This matter will be discussed in detail at the cabinet meeting. I have some suggestions. You may wish to refer to it."

The emperor said this, and his ministers have no reason not to refer to it.

I saw Zhu Yijun raising his palm, sometimes holding it in vain, sometimes pointing: "I have sorted out the gains and losses of my predecessors, and I have some insights."

"The Kaizhong method cannot be repeated. In the final analysis, the salt merchants still cannot exchange salt."

"If it cannot make traders profitable, the central government's policies are just groundless duckweeds."

"The prerequisite for salt merchants to exchange for salt is that each transshipment department has salt and is willing to exchange it for small salt merchants."

According to today's general contracting method of chambers of commerce, it is strange that small salt merchants can exchange salt.

Zhang Juzheng knew that the emperor was selling salt again in the Dian Transfer Department.

He immediately expressed his position: "Your Majesty, several big salt merchants in the Chamber of Commerce have had their homes confiscated by Yushi Hai, so it's time to show off."

According to the news from North and South Zhili, the normal journey takes twenty days, and the expedited journey takes fifteen days. If you want to go any faster, you will have to kill several horses.

Matters in Lianghuai were dealt with urgently, so fifteen days ago, that is, on December 8, Hai Rui had already sent Shen Chuanyin to a group of salt merchants to ransack their homes.

Zhu Yijun nodded and dismissed the matter.

How to change it specifically depends on how far Hai Rui can go, so we can only wait until then.

He continued: "At the same time, in order for the salt guide to remain effective, the salt guide must not be distributed indiscriminately, otherwise it will become waste paper."

"So the distribution rights of this salt should be transferred from the six transshipment departments to one place."

"The source has a hole, which facilitates overall planning and can also be traced back to the center."

This kind of financial currency to a certain extent cannot leave the right to issue it locally.

Gao Yi thought about these words in his mind, and felt that they made sense, and couldn't help but secretly praise them.

He opened his mouth and asked: "So your Majesty wants to set up a salt class office to coordinate this matter?"

Zhu Yijun nodded: "The quota, production and sales of salt are all in Gyeonggi Province. The Salt Department is responsible for coordinating the transportation of salt and the distribution of salt. A separate Yamen will be established."

"Some of the functions and powers of several transportation departments and lifting departments can be appropriately restored."

Zhang Juzheng leads the world's civil servants, and it is time for him to answer the question.

He looked around at several ministers.

Yang Bo fully supported it, Gao Yi thought it was feasible, and Lu Tiaoyang was just afraid of being too radical, but did not object.

After Zhang Juzheng knew what he was doing, he didn't hesitate: "Your Majesty has great ambitions for the world, and all the ministers admire him."

"The cabinet understands the Holy Will and understands the Holy Heart, and will discuss this matter with all the courtiers tomorrow."

"However...the specific regulations of government agencies, official grades, powers and responsibilities are not something that can be accomplished in a day."

The general direction has been set, but the specifics still need to be discussed and drafted.

This matter involves the north and south, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Household Affairs, water transportation, and the salt department. There will always be wrangling for a period of time. It is not that the emperor can just talk and things will go unimpeded.

If the cabinet wants to implement this matter, it will inevitably expend a lot of energy.

Now that the New Year is approaching, everything is busy.

The Ministry of Household Affairs needs accountants, and the Ministry of Personnel needs to pass the examination, not to mention that the autumn grain has not yet arrived in Beijing, and Xuanda and Ningxia are already waiting for food.

The more things you have to do, the slower they will be processed.

Since it would take a lot of time, Zhang Juzheng naturally had to make an agreement with the emperor first.

Otherwise, the emperor will feel that the cabinet is not on his side, and will be angry and say things like conquering the world again - it will be difficult not to remember what happened last time.

Zhu Yijun understood why the old man said this, and nodded gently in agreement: "This is natural."

"There is no result yet on the Lianghuai matter. We just want the central government to prepare first so as not to have trouble cleaning up the mess in Lianghuai."

"It's just the turn of spring and summer!"

"It will also help the salt merchants catch up with the ripening of summer grain."

Zhang Juzheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the emperor did not press for a result immediately.

However, when it comes to the establishment of a new yamen, everyone finally knows why the emperor called Yu Youding, a member of the economic bureau, for what purpose.

This is an internal decision.

Yu Youding was a Sandingjia, a Hanlin editor, and had a higher background than several cabinet ministers today. For example, Zhang Juzheng was only a Shujishi of the Erjia.

There is also a day when officials are appointed, and based on the qualifications of a banquet official, someone from the third rank will be assigned to someone else.

But... the transfer envoy is already a third-grade official.

If the new yamen wants to coordinate six transportation departments and seven lifting departments, it must at least have the same regulations as a water transportation yamen, starting from the second level.

Yu Youding is not quite qualified.

Thinking of this, Lu Tiaoyang couldn't help but remind him: "The chief officer of Yanzheng Yamen must be at least the second grade to be able to regulate. Does your Majesty have someone to choose?"

Zhu Yijun knew what everyone was thinking when he saw their expressions.

He couldn't help but smile: "Of course there is, I'll check with you for details."

"What do you think of the great scholar of Wuyingdian before the restoration, and the Shaobao Yin Shidan?"

Everyone's expressions changed.

In the 26th year of Jiajing's reign, he was a Jinshi and was born as a scholar. He also served as an official in the late emperor's residence.

After the late emperor succeeded to the throne, he entered the cabinet only one step slower than Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong.

At first there was disagreement with Gao Gong in the cabinet.

The two had a fight, but Yin Shidan was defeated by Gao Gong and resigned.

Now the emperor wants to revive this person?
To be continued...
