After the three of Lu Yijian instructed Kou Ji, they left Daxiangguo Temple.
The money piled up in the Daxiangguo monastery is certainly attractive, but the destination has already been decided. Kou Ji is not letting go, and the three of Lu Yijian can't grab it.
Before Zhao Zhen ascended the throne, if the three of them had encountered such astonishing wealth, they would probably be stubbornly reluctant to leave, and they would have to get a share of it.
But after Zhao Zhen ascended the throne, he tried his best to govern, and the ruling and opposition parties worked together to push the Song Dynasty in the direction of prosperity.
With the continuous rise of the Great Song Dynasty, the money in the national treasury also continued to increase.
The former treasury was empty and could run mice. Today, the treasury is full of tens of millions of copper coins.
Among such amazing savings, part is tax and silver, part is income from salt and iron business, part is seized income, and part is produced by prisoners, prisoners, and civilians in Hexi, Xingqing and other places. Food, cattle, sheep and horse sales, and a small part of the income from the tribute of the tribes.
If the court wanted to accumulate wealth, the only means available was to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
In terms of throttling, the Song Dynasty has done a good job in recent years. Ninety percent of the imperial relatives and 60% of the martial arts were cleared, and a large area of land and real estate was cleared. After the land and real estate were sold off, the harvest was much money. Up to tens of millions.
In addition, after the titles and official positions of the royal relatives and Lord Wu were dismissed, they also saved a lot of money, rice, and money for the court.
The titles and official positions of the relatives of the imperial family and Lord Wu are almost all high, and there are many people in the family who have titles and official positions.
Therefore, after they were deposed and cleaned up, the salaries and other money they saved was also a huge number.
In addition to the relatives and relatives of the emperor, a large number of officials, soldiers and horses, and idle yamen were abolished, which also saved the court a lot of salary.
Nowadays, there is no bloated officials in the Song Dynasty.
In today's Song Dynasty, officials are not only not bloated, they are even a little insufficient.
As a result, there are no officials to send in some places in Xinde, and military control can only be temporarily implemented.
The Song Dynasty has now achieved the ultimate feudal dynasty's throttling.
I dare not say in the future, and counting forward, all dynasties and dynasties are no longer comparable to the Song Dynasty in terms of throttling.
In terms of open source, Dasong has done better in recent years. Hexi’s food, cattle and sheep, Xingqing’s food, cattle and sheep, the war dividends obtained from fighting in the Quartet, and the rapid development of commerce and handicrafts driven by Yizijiaozipu, Agriculture, with the help of farm tools promoted by the Ministry of Industry and the Forging Workshop, brought great income to the Song Dynasty.
In addition, after the Song Dynasty cancelled the generous gifts to the vassals, not only did it no longer need to give the vassals a generous return, but also made a fortune from the tributes sent by the vassals.
This is not counting the original sea trade of the Song Dynasty, the income from the official salt and iron business, and the high tax that Yizijiaozipu charges into the national treasury every year.
In terms of expenditure, the most money spent by the imperial court in recent years is the three major projects of armament replacement, building official roads, and promoting Mongolian education.
The money for the replacement of armaments was obtained by the black-hearted Kou Ji through trade in the old.
Kou Ji sold Da Song's old armaments through some means at a high price, and the money he got was enough to replace the armament, but he actually had a lot of surplus.
The money used to promote education is collected by the soldiers in front from outside the territory through their fight.
Among the money collected by the soldiers in front, cattle, sheep, horses, minerals, timber, and fur belong to the court.
Copper coins, as well as gold and silver circulating in the market, are used to promote education.
Jewelry, jade, and the like belong to them, and they are the dividends of their war.
The imperial court will give them corresponding money according to the value of the jewels and jade.
Therefore, in the two major projects of replacing armaments and promoting Mongolian education, not only did it not cost money, but also earned money.
The only place where the imperial court spent money was to build official roads.
However, the official roads in most parts of the imperial court have already been built. In recent years, the government roads in Hexi and Xingqing have been built.
To build official roads for Hexi, Xingqing and other places, the imperial court only needs to pay a part of the material and food.
Those who build official roads are not prisoners and criminals, but the military controls the people.
All of them are accepting the imperial court’s labor reform.
Reform through labor is a very glorious thing, how can it be measured by money
Good performance will be rewarded by the Book of Songs.
For them, can money have the fragrance of Song books
With the books of the Great Song Dynasty, in Hexi, Xingqing and other places, can you become a master, be nourished and comfortable.
It was under this situation of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, and under the control of Lu Yijian and the three of them, that the court of the Song Dynasty had accumulated 10,000 copper coins in just a few years.
It stands to reason that the Song Dynasty had already stored so much money, and the three of Lu Yijian shouldn't be thinking about the money Kou Ji had stolen from the Daxiangguo Temple.
But after they learned that Kou Ji had confiscated a huge sum of money in Daxiangguo Temple, they rushed over and thought about the money.
They do this because they are unwilling to easily use the 10,000 yuan saved in the treasury.
They want to keep the money and ask Yan Yun to use it.
Yan Yun is the devil in their hearts, and also the devil in the hearts of Song people.
When Song Lei was weak, they could only think about it.
The Song Dynasty is now strong, attacking cities and plundering land everywhere, and the soldiers are invincible.
In this case, they don't have to think about it anymore.
They must take action to help Da Song get back Yan Yun.
Only by taking down Yan Yun, can Da Song be ashamed.
Only by taking down Yanyun can the Song Dynasty be regarded as a complete and powerful celestial empire.
Only when Yan Yun is taken back can they live up to the officials and the people.
For this, they can pay any price.
Kou Ji knew that they were guarding the money in the treasury.
Because Zhao Zhen is similar to their thoughts.
They guarded the national treasury, and Zhao Zhen guarded Yizi Jiaozipu and his own small treasury.
Zhao Zhen's small vault has been expanded six times, and the money in it has already been piled up like a mountain.
Except for a part of the promotion of Mongolian education, the remaining penny was not abused.
He guarded the money and saved the money, also for Yan Yun.
They feel that as long as they have enough money, even if they spend money, they can return to Yanyun Sixteen Prefecture.
Kou Ji understood their thoughts, but did not approve of their behavior.
But Koj did not admonish them.
Because Kou Ji discovered that they were guarding the money and refused to use it, Da Song not only did not fall into the predicament of no money available, but continued to force Da Song's various ministries and offices to continue to open source.
For example, the Ministry of Industry, in the past, after the construction of the project designated by the court, it fell into a state of salted fish.
Today's Ministry of Industry, in spare time, actually began to take care of work.
At the beginning of the year, Kou Zhun cut the Wenchang Academy again.
On the basis of Wenchang Mongolian School and Wenchang School, another Wenchang School was cut out.
Wenchang Mongolian learning is equivalent to elementary school, Wenchang learning is equivalent to a collection of middle and high schools, and Wenchang Academy is equivalent to a university.
After Wenchang School was cut out, Kou Zhun chose another piece of land to build a school building for Wenchang School.
The Ministry of Engineering unceremoniously took over the project.
Unofficial nature.
Although other yamen do not have the convenience of the Ministry of Industry, they cannot do business.
But they also more or less figured out some ways to help the court open source.
In short, everything in the Song Dynasty is flourishing, but some cancers still exist.
After Kou Ji sent away the three of Lu Yijian, the people from Kaifeng Mansion rushed to Daxiangguo Temple shortly after waiting.
The official and judge of Kaifeng Mansion held a stack of files in each hand.
"I have seen Shu Mi..."
Kou Ji looked at the two of them holding a pile of copywriting, bowed to himself, and said, "You are an official at any rate, and there is no entourage by your side? How about pretending to be in front of me?"
I'm not a philanthropist at the same school, and I'm no longer an official secretary, so I can't promote you. "
The Kaifeng government official and judge still had a bright smile upon hearing this.
They did have an idea to show in front of Kou Ji.
Although everyone lives in Bianjing City on weekdays, the chances of seeing Kou Ji are very small based on their official positions and status.
Kou Ji ordered something to send directly to the Kaifeng prefect, and would not talk to them at all.
Now being criticized by Kou Ji, they don't care.
For them, they are not afraid of Kou Ji criticizing them, they are afraid that Kou Ji will not remember them.
As for Kou Ji's two sentences criticizing them today, they can take them out and tell people that they have been mentioned by Kou Ji.
Kou Ji would not care about such trivial matters with them.
Kou Ji saw where the two were just giggling, without saying a word, so he asked, "What is it in his hand?"
The judge of Kaifeng Palace hurriedly said: "The Hui Kou Secretaries are all monks from the Daxiangguo Temple. In recent years, they have collected debts and wounded and harmed others."
Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, "How long has it been since?"
Kou Ji just asked the people in Kaifeng Prefecture to check if there was any evil in Daxiangguo Temple's release of the seal money in recent years. The Kaifeng government official and judge brought a bunch of files over.
Obviously, Kaifeng Mansion had already investigated the evil things the monks of Daxiangguo Temple did when they put the stamp money, and they had control of certain evidence.
"Hui Kou's secret secretary, from the beginning of the Daxiangguo Temple to release the seal money, as long as evil things are done, Kaifeng Mansion has a record."
The Kaifeng government official said with a smile.
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
None of the people who put money in stamps are kind.
After all, most of the behavior of printing money is illegal.
How many good things can someone who dare to break the law have
So when you put money in stamps, you will definitely do evil when you are forcing debts.
Daxiangguo Temple has kept the stamp money for many years. If there is no evil, it is a strange thing.
"Since you have controlled the evidence of evil in Daxiangguo Temple, why don't you report it to the court in the morning?"
Kou Ji asked.
A wry smile appeared on the face of the judge of Kaifeng Mansion, "Private Kou Mi, Daxiangguo Temple is a national temple, protected by Emperor Taizong's will, who dares to embarrass them. In addition, there are many pilgrims in Daxiangguo Temple, among which are rich or noble. There are quite a few.
Some empresses in the palace are also pilgrims from Daxiangguo Temple.
Even if the lower officials and others were holding the evidence of evil in Daxiangguo Temple in their hands, they did not dare to speak out.
If you hadn't checked the Daxiangguo Temple this time, these things would probably have to be accumulated from generation to generation. "
Kou Ji's face became cold, and he yelled, "I have to participate in the book of the prefect of Fengfu Quan when I look back. The officials who preside over justice are afraid of a group of villains?!
Even if his Daxiangguo Temple has a huge backing, it is not as big as the law of the country. "
The judge of Kaifeng Mansion and the official Tui looked at each other, with a wry smile on their faces.
They felt that Kou Ji obviously couldn't talk while standing.
There are many noble female pilgrims in Daxiangguo Temple. The three of the inner courts may not be able to bear the pillow breeze of those female pilgrims, let alone the prefect of Kaifeng Palace.
In today's Song Dynasty, only Kou Ji is not afraid of those pillow winds.
After Kou Ji finished speaking, he actually felt the same as them.
But he had said all the righteous Ling Ran had said, so it was naturally impossible to take it back.
Kou Ji instructed the judge and judge of Kaifeng Mansion: "Take your files, take your people, and give it to me one by one. All monks who have done evil will be escorted back to Kaifeng Mansion. , Punishment according to the law.
Any homicide case, or involving the sale of people in the city, should be sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. "
"Hey..."
The Kaifeng government judge and the push officer agreed and hurried to do it.
They had just walked two steps before they heard Kou Ji's voice sounded again, "They may not do it themselves, it is possible that they have raised a group of green skin gangsters outside the Daxiangguo Temple. Those green skin gangsters will also count on them. "
The two agreed again, and they got busy with the file and got into the crowd of monks.
Kou Ji waited quietly, waiting for them to discern what had done evil among the monks.
After their interrogation and interrogation, there were no clean monks in Daxiangguo Temple.
There are not many who have big evils on their bodies, but there are so many small evils on their bodies.
What's more, they lied to the female pilgrim to deceive people in the name of consecration.
Kou Ji waved his hand and asked the Kaifeng government officials to send them all to the cell.
After the batch of green skin gangsters raised in Daxiangguo Temple were arrested, the Kaifeng Mansion would make the final settlement with them.
Since the monks didn't do any evil, the green skin gangsters they raised must have done a lot of evil.
Homicide cases are absolutely indispensable.
The easiest thing to force debt is human life.
After the officials of Kaifeng Mansion escorted the guilty monks away, the number of monks in Daxiangguo Temple dropped by 90%.
The rest are mostly old monks, or monks who are not valued in Daxiangguo Temple, and some young children.
They are called monks, but they have lived in Daxiangguo Temple like handymen and servants.
Kou Ji stared at them for a round, his eyes fell on the old monk who was pretending to be compassionate with his eyes closed.
"Old monk, this is what you call a place of purity in Buddhism."
Kou Ji sneered.
The old monk folded his hands and stood motionless and did not speak.
Kou Ji snorted coldly: "I think it's a place where dirt is hidden."
The old monk still did not speak, as if he had accepted his fate.
Kou Ji told the people behind him: "Send the old monk to the north to blow the cold wind, so that the old monk is sober and sober. By the way, tell Wang Kai to entertain the old monk well."
Kou Ji's voice fell to the ground, and two soldiers jumped out from behind Kou Ji and grabbed the old monk.
The old monk suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "The poor monk is the presiding officer of the Daxiangguo Temple, which is pro-approved by the official family. Who dares to touch the poor monk?"
Kou Ji sneered: "Now that the matter is, you still have the face to mention the official family? If the official family knows that he has sealed you such a thing as the host of the Daxiangguo Temple, you will not be angry with you."
"Bring it down!"
The two soldiers rushed to the old monk's side and took the old monk.
The old monk shouted sharply: "The poor monk wants to see the official family! The poor monk wants to see the empress dowager!"
Kou Ji said contemptuously: "Old monk, you really have survived to the belly of a dog."
"Shut up his mouth and take it down."
The two soldiers immediately blocked the old monk's mouth, and left the Daxiangguo Temple with the old monk.
After the old monk was taken away, Kou Ji's eyes fell on Master Chen.
Kou Ji stared at Master Chen with a smile, "Master Lie, how does it feel to be used by others?"
Master Liechen sighed with complicated expression.
Master Liaochen is a member of the Duan clan in Dali, the emperor of the Duan clan in Dali, who likes to abdicate and become a virtuous monk.
Therefore, the Duan family in Dali is very kind to Buddhism.
Although Master Liaochen was in and out of Buddhism, he had a good impression of Buddhism after being nurtured by several of his elders.
So when I entered the Daxiangguo Temple and learned that Daxiangguo Temple had difficulties, I did not hesitate to come forward.
It was only after the various evils of Daxiangguo Temple were exposed that he discovered that he was being used by others.
Now that he was so faceless and speechless, he could only let out a long sigh.
Kou Ji saw this and said to Master Chen: "After Master Chen, stay in Daxiangguo Temple to study the Dharma. Just leave it alone."
Hearing the words, Master Liechen closed his eyes, announced the Buddha's horn, bowed slightly to give salutes, and left the front of the Daxiong Hall.
After Master Chen left, Kou Ji's eyes fell on the remaining monks in Daxiangguo Temple.
Kou Ji's gaze swept around the monks of Daxiangguo Temple, and his gaze fell on an elderly monk.
"Law name?!"
Kou Ji stared at the elderly monk.
The monk performed a Buddhist ceremony and said: "The little monk knows it."
Kou Ji asked: "What did you do in Daxiangguo Temple before?"
The monk replied: "Wipe the Buddha case."
Kou Ji nodded slowly, "From then on you will be the host of Daxiangguo Temple."
The monk was stunned, and the other monks were also stunned.
Just now Kou Ji yelled at the monks in Daxiangguo Temple, but they were shocked to hear.
They originally thought that Kou Ji would impose a small punishment on them, but they did not expect that Kou Ji not only failed to punish them, but also elected the new host of Daxiangguo Temple on the spot.
After a daze, the monk hesitated to Kou Ji: "The little monk has a shallow relationship with the Buddha, and I am afraid it will be difficult for him to hold the post of the presiding officer of the Daxiangguo Temple."
Kou Ji said indifferently: "Being obedient..."
The monk stared slightly, and after taking two breaths, he took a deep breath and saluted Kou Ji, "Amitabha..."
Although he didn't say anything clearly, he made a statement to Kou Ji.
Seeing this, Kou Ji nodded in satisfaction and said: "The Daxiangguo Temple will probably decline a lot after this incident. The monks who were taken away did a lot of evil, and the court subsequently punished it.
If you don't report it, you have to bear the consequences.
Afterwards, the rumors and rumors in the city of Bianjing, as well as the condemnation of the people in the city of Bianjing, must be blocked by yourself, and the court will not stand up for you.
If it can survive, Daxiangguo Temple will still be Daxiangguo Temple.
If it can't survive, the Daxiangguo Temple will perish.
Whether Daxiangguo Temple can survive or not depends on you.
Later, I will take away all the goods in the Daxiangguo Temple, leaving you only some food, as well as firewood, rice, oil and salt.
In addition, I will leave some fields for you to cultivate.
The term is five years.
After five years, the court will take it back.
From now on, Daxiangguo Temple is no longer allowed to own land.
I believe that as long as you can survive, the sesame oil money offered by the pilgrims will be enough for you to survive for a lifetime. "
The monks heard the words and looked at the elderly monk together.
The elderly monk gave a salute to Kou Ji, and the monks hurriedly followed the salute.
They had a bitter life in the Daxiangguo Temple before. After the incident at the Daxiangguo Temple, Kou Ji did not take them away, but gave them food and land to earn a living, which was considered very good.
They have no dissatisfaction, and they dare not dissatisfied.
Kou Ji told the elderly monk after the monks gave the salute, and then someone would go to the Daxiangguo Temple to record their names and give them a reward.
The old monk agreed.
Kou Ji stopped paying attention to them.
Kou Ji ordered the people to check out the property and grain of the Daxiangguo Temple, and then loaded them together in the car and pulled it out of the Daxiangguo Temple.
The periphery of Daxiangguo Temple is full of people.
After seeing the huge amount of money in Daxiangguo Temple, they were all startled and speechless.
There is no need for Kou Ji to tell them what virtues the Daxiangguo Temple is. They can intuitively see the virtues of the Daxiangguo Temple from the money.
Kou Ji ordered the people to take money and grain to walk around the city of Bianjing.
After letting everyone in Bianjing see the wealth of Daxiangguo Temple, they transported the money to the treasury specially prepared by the imperial court for enlightenment.
The grain was delivered to the granary in the city of Bianjing.
Afterwards, Kou Ji sent people to investigate all the industries and all the fields in the Daxiangguo Temple.
After the people were dispatched, Kou Ji took a carriage to Jin Ming Chi.
When Kou Ji arrived at Jinmingchi, Queen Mother Li and Queen Cao had been sent back to the palace by Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen stood alone on the dragon boat and admired the scenery of Jinming Lake.
After Kou Ji boarded the ship, Zhao Zhen turned around and said, "Four brothers, I thought I managed the Great Song Dynasty very well... But I did not expect that after the money from Daxiangguo Temple was found out, I found out, My Da Song is still full of holes."
Kou Ji withdrew the hand he was preparing to give the ceremony, and said in deep thought, "The official found that there are still many places to be governed by the Song Dynasty, so fear was born?"
Zhao Zhen slowly shook his head, "Why am I afraid? I only discovered now that the road to go under my feet is very long, and I don't know if I can finish this life."
Kou Ji laughed and said with emotion: "This is a road with no end. It is impossible for us to reach the end, and no one can reach the end.
When Taizu was in the dynasty, he established many ancestral systems. For the original Song Dynasty, it was good governance.
But for the current Da Song, it doesn't apply, and it will bind you and my hands and feet.
Why does this problem occur
It is because the Song Dynasty is changing.
The officials of the Song Dynasty are changing, the officials of the Song Dynasty are changing, the people of the Song Dynasty are changing, and everything in the Song Dynasty is also changing.
Everything in the world is always changing, so in the constant change, many bad things will always be born.
So we can't finish it, and no one can finish it.
So this road has no end. "
