Chapter 430: For myself and the people

The court gave soldiers very good treatment, with little arrears of wages and food, and family members also had preferential policies. Not to mention officers of Kong Youde's level, even ordinary soldiers, they would not be afraid to support their families.

The court certainly hoped that the soldiers would take root on the spot, but they greatly encouraged the enthusiasm of the soldiers.

If you work hard for a year in the border guard, you can get at least a dozen acres, from several years of exemption from taxes to now giving it to individuals, which is very attractive.

Just say that Kong Youde had already had nearly a hundred acres of land after less than two years of settlement and guarding the border.

Although it is still a number and has to wait until retirement or personal requests to be assigned, the little landlord who has no worries about life in the second half of his life.

The key is that Kong Youde doesn't care about that little land, he doesn't embezzle or deduct money, he still eats enough money, and can save a lot, even if he likes to smoke not cheap cigars and drinks Erguotou, which was sold by the capital.

He has been promoted to deputy general. If he cannot even meet this amount of consumption, wouldn’t the emperor’s increase in military treatment be empty?

The army is the army of the country. If the country comes to support it, there is no need for generals and officers to deduct military pay to support private soldiers or other private soldiers.

The proportion of military officers from martial arts is getting higher and higher, and there are relatively independent military law and salary guarantors. If you want to gain a self-respecting force, where do you get your loyal close confidants?

The same is true for changing to a civil servant. It is not corruption or illegal, and your salary will still make you live a prosperous life. You can still receive a pension if you retire normally and you don’t worry about life problems.

But if you are ungrateful, the emperor has a very good ears and eyes and ears, and his knife is fast. Not only will it defeat your future, but your whole family will also be punished.

Strict supervision and constraints, a complete reward and punishment system, and the use of kindness and power over the past few years, the political and military appearance of the Ming Dynasty was not only completely renewed, but also smooth government orders and clear government affairs.

No one is not afraid of death, it depends on whether the law is strict and the supervision system is strict. When the cost of illegality is too high, it will naturally curb its illegal thoughts in the bud.

The so-called "highest people have something to do," and the lower people must do it. The tendency shown by the emperor will inevitably become a weather vane for officials' guidance.

To improve the treatment and status of military generals, you like officials with practical abilities, regardless of your background or the way to join the officialdom, you only look at your work ability.

To put it simply, as long as you do your job well, satisfy the emperor, and make the long live long-awaited person happy, and promotion and wealth will naturally come naturally.

But if you can't even do your job well, you can't starve to go home and live with rice.

Moreover, as long as the court's policies are implemented in place and more serious and responsible, there will be no high requirements. What's the point of not being able to keep you?

"What's the point of keeping him?" Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, interrupted the chief clerk's resignation, and said slowly: "This county has newly established. Although everything is complicated, there are still laws to follow. Now it's harder, and when the work is smoothed, it will naturally be easier."

Lu Xiaobu suddenly raised his voice, "But he is fine, he is perfunctory. If the measurement of the land is not accurate, will something happen in the future? If the dispute is filed, isn't it because the county government dereliction of duty?"

The Lord Bo smiled bitterly and bowed, "What the Lord said is very true."

Alas, the Lord sighed and said with emotion: "If you fail the imperial examination, you will finally be able to transfer the official position. Why don't you cherish it?"

Lu Xiaobu snorted and said, "This is the problem of many scholars. They are delicate and expensive. They still feel that they are more knowledgeable and superior, and they are unwilling to calm down and work hard. I think he feels wronged when he takes the path of becoming an official!"

The chief clerk agreed and sighed and turned away.

He was demoted by the Shangguan and was reasonable and compliant, which was caused by his own negligence. He was not allowed to be an official within three years and was not allowed to participate in the imperial examination.

For many scholars, such a blow is not bad. Don’t think that it is easy to go to the path of becoming an official. There is still supervision and rewards and punishments, not to let you get involved.

The court not only severely punished officials' illegality, but also did not tolerate clerks.

Mekong Province, Dongban, Hainan and Liaodong are all short of immigration, and the punishment for clerks is also exiled to the whole family. Many clerks are originally local tyrants, and they have a very poor reputation.

Just as the system of officials being transferred to officials was improved and introduced, severe punishment for illegal officials was also carried out.

The court's approach was simple and rough. Those who were guilty of being beheaded, and the rest were exiled, which not only rectified the political climate of local governments, but also provided manpower for the development of new land.

In addition to clerks, there are also gangsters who commit crimes in the country. These people have no serious crimes, but they are a disaster to the local government. If they are locked up and released, they will be locked up and then locked up. The local government will also have a headache.

Now, exile has become the mainstream of punishment, the prison is empty, and local people applaud.

Lu Xiaobu has come to this point step by step, thanks to the good grasp of the court's policies, and the expansion of the country's territory and the significant increase in the position of officials.

As a magistrate of several newly established counties in Jilin Prefecture, Lu Xiaobu could not imagine that he was a scholar who fell into the restaurant and became an accountant, and he would have the seventh-rank official rank today.

Of course, Lu Xiaobu will definitely cherish the opportunity in front of him. It is Xinxian that can show his strength and show his abilities.

After dealing with his lazy and irresponsible subordinates, Lu Xiaobu came up with the plans he had formulated and continued to improve them.

The plan included his own ideas and suggestions from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to local governments. It was called the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, but it included agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishery and other aspects.

Agricultural cultivation is naturally the top priority, but it seems a bit insufficient to make people rich by farming or to make their lives better.

Therefore, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has given various methods based on the soil, climate and other conditions in various places. In the words of later generations, it is to operate a variety of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline fishery and other operations and develop comprehensively.

Lu Xiaobu was optimistic about it, including digging soil and burning bricks, and digging soil pits to store water and cultivate aquatic products.

Is it a higher level to build mud houses in other counties? Raising fish in ponds can not only increase the income of the people, but also serve as a cheap substitute for meat, and can also store water and resist drought.

There are also trees on both sides of the road, which was proposed by the court, but not much can be done.

In Lu Xiaobu's guess, it is probably because he wants to come to Liaodong for a visit. Even further north, he may have to go to Liaodong to visit him.

As for time, it can be as long as five years, as low as three years. It is estimated that when all the remnants of Jiannu were eliminated, the emperor would have to go through a ceremony, and his reputation will be marked in history and his achievements will surpass Taizu and Chengzu.

Regardless of whether the emperor will pass by the county or not, it is always right to be prepared. Moreover, good governance is also the performance of the Ministry of Personnel’s assessment. If you can evaluate it, it will be easier to be promoted.
