Chapter two hundred and sixty eight patrons
Fang Shiyu naturally saw all the reactions of the civil and military officials at this time. Moreover, Fang Shiyu brought these people over and had no intention of letting them go. Therefore, when he heard the proposals of the officials, Fang Shiyu just nodded and agreed that since Fang Shiyu took power, he had accepted a peaceful and prosperous era, so he had always gained a good reputation among the people when he walked after implementing benevolent politics.
Fang Shiyu also knew before that although it was very useful to do this, it was too bloody to understand it. After all, although some corrupt officials or evil people could understand it, it was too bloody to understand it. After all, although some corrupt officials or evil people did some bad things, their families may not necessarily know it.
But this time, after seeing the greedy shadows of these corrupt officials, a very spicy look flashed across his eyes, and he directly announced that all the corrupt officials would behead them and kill the whole family.
When everyone heard this news, they couldn't help but be shocked. After all, Fang Shiyu didn't like to use this method the most in the past, but he also paid attention to seeing this incident that made Fang Shiyu so angry.
Some of them also participated in corruption, but the amount of corruption was relatively small, and Fang Shiyu turned a blind eye to them. They were completely shocked at this time.
After dealing with these matters, Fang Shiyu personally ordered Ping, and then everyone went to copy all the homes of the corrupt officials, and at the same time taught that all the stolen money was taken back to the treasury.
Originally, the money in the treasury that the victims who subsidized Shandong skills this time had already been empty, but I didn't expect that after the corrupt officials who had been dealt with, the money in the treasury would be enriched once, even more than before.
When Fang Shiyu saw the amount of stolen silver collected, he frowned fiercely, and at the same time he directly promulgated the law.
When Fang Shiyu saw the emperor's grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated the method of directly peeling and lighting the sky lanterns by corruption and bribery officials, he felt that it was a bit too cruel. But now Fang Shiyu realized that only the real cruel enough methods could completely make these officials afraid of them and not dare to embezzle and accept bribes.
So soon Fang Shiyu restored the decree that had been abolished by him and also gave the remaining people who had only embezzled a little money before, a warning, "Now, all the issues about corruption in the past have been basically dealt with."
If some people had embezzled them in the past, then taking the initiative to hand over the money can be written off, otherwise it would be the same as those people's fate if they were found out.
After Fang Shiyu released the news this time, there were still some people who thought Fang Shiyu might be cheating them and hoped that they could jump out by themselves, but no one dared to do tricks like the last time.
All the officials who had accepted bribes from the officials below went back to find out the account books, quickly handed over all the money they had embezzled before, and at the same time they knelt outside the palace, begging His Highness for forgiveness.
It is naturally impossible for Fang Shiyu to kill all the officials of the court. After all, the imperial examination year is only held once. Even if the imperial examination mountain is held now, the elected officials may not be so familiar with the country's market conditions, so these officials have to be maintained slowly. However, as long as they can turn from now on, Fang Shiyu is still willing to give them a chance.
Therefore, this time Fang Shiyu really said a lot, and asked Eunuch Xi to collect all the money and books handed over by those people, then burned the money with the books with a torch, and took all the money back to the national treasury. In addition, he also took out a batch of silver, purchased a large amount of grain, and transported it to Jinan, Shandong again.
This time, with so many corrupt officials' homes, Fang Shiyu was even more willing to give up grain for Jinan, Shandong. The drought in Jinan, Shandong was supported by these grains, and the officials sent by Fang Shiyu to specialize in the management, was quickly alleviated.
At this time, Fang Shiyu also asked some officers and soldiers to help the people rebuild their houses and provided a lot of materials. After we received this news, each of them was grateful and began to return to Shandong.
This time, there were many people who received the favor of Fang Shiyu, so many people were very grateful to Fang Shiyu. Some people in the surrounding areas who were not working were all used in Jinan, Shandong at this time to help people from Jinan, Shandong build together.
The local people in Jinan, Shandong, and some officers and soldiers joined the construction, which led to the completion of this construction very quickly.
It was Fang Shiyu who knew that this was just a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause, so he sent some people who specialized in building water conservancy to attract some water from the surrounding areas.
For a moment, the drought in Jinan, Shandong was quickly suppressed with the help of united people.
Fang Shiyu also issued several new regulations, which is to reduce taxes for three years to Jinan, Shandong. Therefore, after they received state subsidies this year, they did not have to pay taxes for three years. For a moment, the people in Jinan, Shandong cheered His Highness for the wise every month.
The rumors about the previous relationship that caused severe drought in Jinan, Tianshan, were self-defeated because His Highness did not recognize it.
After hearing this news, Fang Shiyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, he has been troubled by the drought in Jinan, Shandong these days.
Now that everything has been solved, he is eager to relax in a wheelchair.
Moreover, after the drought in Jinan, Shandong was resolved, the people once again wrote a letter together.
He gave Fang Shiyu a letter to the people. During this time, Fang Shiyu was in office, the second thing was that he was so happy that he lost when he received it outside.
However, Fang Shiyu was always nervous during this period, so after dealing with these things in Jinan, Shandong, Fang Shiyu also decided to take a good vacation to relax.
When Eunuch Xi heard that Fang Shiyu was about to leave the palace again, she subconsciously wanted to arrange someone to protect Fang Shiyu, but this time Fang Shiyu showed a mysterious smile to Eunuch Xi.
When Eunuch Xi saw Fang Shiyu's face melting, her heart immediately skipped a beat, and she had a bad premonition. Sure enough, what Fang Shiyu said successfully made Eunuch Xi's smile break down with joy:
"It's rare that I really feel good today, and now the world is peaceful. If we go out, don't go in so many people. Today, you will accompany me to go shopping together.
During this period, I have been working diligently for this great country, and I just took advantage of this time to go out to see the real great country."
Hearing Fang Shiyu say this, although Eunuch Xi was reluctant, he had to go out with Fang Shiyu.
Fortunately, Eunuch Xi himself would also inform His Highness of some skills. Although he was going out for a private visit, there were always a few comfort stations around him. Although he was still very worried, he made all preparations. At the same time, he prepared two casual clothes for His Highness and himself, and then the two of them left the palace.
After leaving the palace, Eunuch Xi always called Fang Shiyu the Third Master. The two of them walked on the street and saw the bustling scene on the street. Fang Shiyu's mouth unconsciously smiled.
This prosperity and liveliness is enough to comfort Fang Shiyu's hard work during this period. Therefore, Fang Shiyu would try some snacks when he walked on the street, but when Fang Shiyu walked on the street, he inexplicably found that the snacks were very expensive.
Fang Shiyu had a private visit from the palace before. At that time, the price of snacks was less than one-third of the current snacks. Although Fang Shiyu spent a meal on the public, ordinary people could not eat so much for a meal.
While eating, Fang Shiyu also asked the waiter why the food is so expensive now than before. Originally, the waiter was planning to roll his eyes at Fang Shiyu.
But looking at Fang Shiyu's clothes and the demeanor around Fang Shiyu, and the broken silver taken out of Eunuch Xi's hand, the waiter's face changed instantly at this moment. He looked at Fang Shiyu and said respectfully
"You don't know anything, sir."
"Isn't there a drought in Jinan, Shandong before? Then, there must be no grain production in Jinan, Shandong, including within this year and six months. Moreover, Your Highness has been allocating grain to Jinan, Shandong, which has caused the supply of grain here to be in short supply."
Hearing the waiter's words, Fang Shiyu's face changed and she asked directly: "Didn't the above have issued an order saying that the current price of grain has dropped?"
After hearing Fang Shiyu say this, the waiter couldn't help but sigh, and then continued: "Of course you are right. The price of grain has indeed dropped now, but the people have money and cannot buy food, because there are people who are restricting the purchase of grain."
When Fang Shiyu received this news, he was very surprised. After all, the grain prices in the capital had been reduced in total because of its seeds. However, due to the reduced grain prices, the purchase restrictions have been achieved. Is it because of the frequent lack of food?
When Eunuch Xi, who was standing by, saw Fang Shiyu's face changing constantly, actually guessed Fang Shiyu's thoughts. At this time, Eunuch Xi couldn't help feeling a little unlucky. Fang Shiyu was in a very good mood today and finally wanted to leave the palace to relax, but unexpectedly encountered such a thing.
But after all, Eunuch Xi has been with Fang Shiyu for many years. At this time, he naturally understood Fang Shiyu's heart. He turned his eyes slightly and was about to investigate the incident. However, before he could take a step, Fang Shiyu also knew about Eunuch Xi's thoughts, so he reached out to stop him.
Looking at Eunuch Xi's actions, Fang Shiyu shook his head at him, and then spoke:
"Forget it, since I came out today, I'd better go and see some things myself."
But even if it was such a plate, it was too hard for a little eunuch to go there. When Fang Shiyu sent her personal eunuch, she found out that although the food on the market was sold at a fair price, she was also restricted from purchasing.
Because if the people want to buy food, they must first buy food coupons, but the price of food coupons is much more expensive than food.
When he heard this, Fang Shiyu raised his eyebrows slightly. Unexpectedly, these people were really capable and laughed when they were angry.
Because of the previous incident, he specially issued a law that required that all grains be not allowed to increase prices, but now these people have made a time difference, not to raise prices of grains, but only to raise prices of grain tickets.
So what is the difference between the price increase in this way and the original price? It’s not that there is a high price of grain. Fang Shiyu was also a little angry when he thought about it.
I have to say that these people really have policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom, and they are really good at taking advantage of loopholes.
Just as Fang Shiyu was thinking about these questions, he suddenly saw a man wearing gray linen clothes in front of him, holding a stack of tickets in his hand. Then the man came over when he saw Fang Shiyu and the others.
The man lowered a ticket in his hand with a scammer, and his face was filled with smiles and asked:
"Uncle, I see you guys have been shopping on the street for a long time, and every rice shop is watching. Why are you here to buy rice tickets?"
Hearing the vendor's words, Fang Shiyu's mouth tugged stiffly.
Just as Eunuch Xi was about to refuse, Fang Shiyu suddenly glanced at the vendor and then said:
"How many rice tickets do you have here? It's too few, I don't want them. I want a large amount of acquisitions."
When he heard Fang Shiyu's words, the vendor's eyes immediately came out. The thief-eyed mouse light looked at Fang Shiyu's eyes with shiny eyes, as if he had seen a big customer.
The vendor put his head to Fang Shiyu, then lowered his voice and said:
"Uncle, I will have as much as you want in this rice ticket."
"If you want to come with me, can you come and have a look?"
Although the vendor in front of him deliberately cleaned up very neatly, there was still a smell of money on his body. When he approached Fang Shiyu, Fang Shiyu's brows subconsciously frowned, and Eunuch Xi, who was standing beside him, also pushed the man away directly.
However, in order to pretend that he looks more like him, Fang Shiyu gave Eunuch Xi a wink, causing Eunuch Xi to stop the movement in his hand. However, Eunuch Xi looked at the vendor next to him with murderous intent at this time.
At the same time, his right hand was also tightly pinching. Once the vendor did something bad about Fang Shiyu, he would rush up and twist the vendor's neck.
