Chapter 643 Manchu Civil and Military Affairs
all dead?
This was beyond Jiang Chen's expectation.
He originally planned to pick out a few veterans who had abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, and asked them to help him continue to manage the affairs of the gymnasium, but he did not expect that they were all dead.
Jiang Chen glanced at Chen Ling meaningfully.
That half-smile expression made Chen Ling dare not look up at him.
"Mr. Chen is decisive in killing, and his methods are good."
Cold sweat ran across his forehead, Chen Ling said submissively.
"Don't dare."
"Okay, let's die if you die." Jiang Chen waved his hand.
Hearing what Jiang Chen said, Chen Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was his petty idea to kill all the elders and emperors of the previous dynasty. His importance can only be highlighted when the high-ranking officials of the empire are motivated. The only thing he was worried about was Jiang Chen's opinion on his actions, but now it seems that although the na's marshal has seen through his little thoughts, he doesn't care.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen asked casually.
"What is the population of this imperial capital?"
"The resident population is 43,510, and the floating population is more than 3,000." Chen Ling replied immediately.
"Fiscal surplus last month?"
"Ninety thousand sub-crystals."
"I can't tell, you're quite familiar with the situation in the empire. It's not a temporary trick, right?" Jiang Chen glanced at him unexpectedly.
Chen Ling chuckled, and said in a flattering tone, "How dare I lie to you."
"Very well, it seems that you are not an idiot." Jiang Chen nodded with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "If that's the case, are you interested in doing things for me?"
Hearing this, Chen Ling was overjoyed, and immediately kowtowed his thanks regardless of other people's gazes.
"Don't rush to be happy." Jiang Chen didn't get him up, and looked down at him with a smile, "I know all about your little cleverness. You should also know that if you use those little cleverness where it shouldn't be used, it will be a mess." What's the end?"
Hear Jiang Chen's words. Chen Ling immediately pressed his forehead to the ground to show his loyalty.
"If Chen Ling dares to have the slightest disagreement,
Willing to suffer the punishment of Ling Chi! "
Looking at Chen Ling who bowed his head and bowed his head, Jiang Chen said softly.
"Remember what you said today. Get up."
"Thank you Marshal!"
...
Although Chen Ling's character was questionable, he still had management talents. Jiang Chen sent someone to check the empire's household register and treasury accounts, and the data on it were almost the same as what he said.
As long as the dog is on the leash, it doesn't hurt for such a person to use it.
After all, it is not a moral model.
On the way from the square to the palace, Chen Ling gave full play to his doggy talent. Nodding and bowing, he followed behind Jiang Chen. However, Jiang Chen was not interested in his compliments or flattery, he simply asked a few words about the empire's general situation, and then told the guy to shut up.
Stepping into the palace with one foot, I saw that the officials of the empire had already crowded the palace.
Looking at these dutiful officials, Jiang Chen frowned slightly, tilted his head, and asked Chen Ling, "How many officials are there in this empire?"
"Return to Marshal...official ranks from one to five ranks, each rank is divided into five ranks, a total of 527 officials."
Dry! There are so many?
Jiang Chen estimated that one out of every one hundred people in this empire is an official. This is not counting some petty officials.
Sensing the puzzled look on Jiang Chen's face, Chen Ling hurried forward, leaned closer and whispered.
"The imperial bureaucracy is huge, and the Senate has had a lot of headaches about it before. However, these people are more or less related to the Senate, and no one looks up and down, and no one is ashamed to mention layoffs. So there are more and more officials in this empire, and many things are divided into five pieces and distributed to ten people..."
"There are too many people, cut a batch." Jiang Chen waved his hand and said impatiently.
Unlike Chen Ling's cautiousness, Jiang Chen didn't control the volume at all when he spoke. It is precisely because of this. After hearing what he said clearly, the faces of the officials in the palace froze immediately, and their dissatisfaction was written all over their faces.
Chen Ling secretly smiled wryly, but Jiang Chen didn't care about their petty thoughts. He walked directly to the seat directly in front of the hall.
Sitting down on the dragon chair, Jiang Chen felt the feeling of being an emperor for a while, then looked at the officials and said.
"I'm sitting here, is anyone dissatisfied?"
Bullshit, there is dissatisfaction, who dares to speak out?
All the officials bowed their heads obediently and did not speak. In my heart, I sent the most vicious curse.
"Very good, it seems that no one is dissatisfied." Jiang Chen leaned back on the chair and narrowed his eyes as he watched the officials under the stage.
The emperor of this empire will indeed enjoy it.
Not to mention that this dragon chair is much more comfortable than the wooden chair in his marshal's office, overlooking the ministers with such a high posture, the taste of power is indeed intoxicating.
Clearing his throat, Jiang Chen spoke.
"Chen Ling, the list of officials."
Chen Ling hurried forward and respectfully handed out the tablet in his hand.
Although the empire's technology is backward, it has achieved information management at any rate. The names and ranks of all officials are registered on the server of the palace, which is the responsibility of those who have obtained management authority. Under normal circumstances, this person is the emperor. If the emperor dies, it will be postponed to the second-ranked elder.
The emperor was dead, and Chen Ling was the only elder left, so the management authority of the server data naturally fell into Chen Ling's hands.
Now that Jiang Chen asked for it, Chen Ling naturally offered it with both hands.
After taking the tablet, Jiang Chen saw that the roster had been opened on the main interface, so he flipped through it casually.
"Yang Liang."
"Yes." An old-fashioned official stood out of the queue and bowed to Jiang Chen.
"You are in charge of the city gate tax, right?"
"Exactly." Yang Liang said reassuringly.
"From now on, the Qingshan Stadium will not charge the city gate tax, so you can go home." Jiang Chen said casually.
With a plop, the half-old Yang Liang knelt down on the ground, tears welling up all at once.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The management of the city gate tax is a fat job. Every day, hundreds of people from the empire enter and leave the city gate, and everyone who enters the city has to be scraped. 2 Although there are not many subcrystals, there are at least two or three thousand subcrystals in the account this day.
Scrape one or two hundred crystals from it to subsidize the family, no one will pay attention at all.
Jiang Chen's actions like this simply cut off his source of income.
"What's your name, Your Majesty? Marshal." Jiang Chen said impatiently, and didn't bother to listen to his complaints. With a swipe of his finger, he continued to call out the next name, "Lu Guangyuan."
"Here." Lu Guangyuan stepped out tremblingly, swallowed, and waited for Jiang Chen's fate.
"Market Regulation Department, what is this department?"
"Stable prices, promote economic development, improve"
"Then what is the price department? Wang Qiangping, tell me."
"Hey! Here, here." Wang Qiangping hurried forward, answering in cold sweat.
Jiang Chen signaled him to speak with his eyes.
"Stabilizing prices, promoting economic development, and coordinating"
"There's a hairy difference." Jiang Chen said impatiently.
"This...Marshal, listen carefully, the last two words are different..." Wang Qiangping said submissively with his small eyes staring at the ground.
Jiang Chen didn't talk nonsense, and drew two lines on the screen with his fingers.
"The two departments are abolished, and the tax rate is unified by the newly established Ministry of the Interior, which is formulated after studying the relationship between supply and demand. You can go home first."
After two plops, Lu Guangyuan and Wang Qiangping knelt down on the ground at the same time, with expressions of wanting to cry but not tears.
If it is said that the person who manages the city gate tax is just a piece of fat, then these two departments are like a whole pig, with countless fat hanging around. How could they be willing to withdraw them now!
"Marshal, you, you can't act like this."
"No"
A chill ran up his forehead along with goosebumps, and the tablet in his hand almost hung on the ground.
Hiss, it's really disgusting, don't make people outside who don't understand think that I have done something to them.
Holding the tablet steady, Jiang Chen glared at the two of them viciously, and then at the soldier wearing the exoskeleton next to him, "Take it out."
As the ministers watched tremblingly, the three officials kneeling on the ground were forcibly dragged out by the arms of the soldiers.
dissatisfied?
Everyone will be dissatisfied!
The cake was robbed. For these people, it was a robbery!
But facing the black muzzle of the gun, no one dared to say no. (To be continued.) To find this site, please search for "" or enter the URL:
