Among them, the troops stationed in Liaodong were allowed to carry their families and obtain a piece of land. Of course, the land they obtained was not rewarded with fertile grain fields to the Liao army, nor were there so much.

Emperor Chongzhen calculated the time and participated in the recovery of Liaodong's main force, namely the New Army, some Dongjiang Army and some Guanning Army, could arrive at the capital before the New Year. At that time, he would hold a grand military parade. Of course, the naturalized army participating in the war would also participate. However, they were all cavalrymen, and they came and went quickly, so there was no need to worry about time.

The discussion in Wenhua Hall ended, and the ministers retreated, but the only admiral of Dongchang Wang Cheng'en stayed. When the others saw it, they couldn't help but mutter in their hearts, not knowing what secret the boss of Dongchang was going to tell.

They were really right. Wang Chengen was going to report a secret memorial. When there was no one in the hall, he went to the imperial court and presented a memorial. At the same time, he respectfully said: "Your Majesty, the memorial records the details and uses of the dividends of the shares from each company in the past two years. Your Majesty did not expect that, most of the dividends were entered into his personal pocket!"

At that time, the Daming Cement Company, the Road and Bridge Company, the Daming Construction Bank, etc. were established. In order to minimize internal resistance, to make these companies operate as soon as possible, and to allow these companies to drive the Ming economy as soon as possible, Emperor Chongzhen issued an order at the beginning, and took out a portion of the shares and distributed them to six departments.

It is precisely because of this that the establishment and operation of these companies have basically not encountered any resistance, and with the cooperation of the six departments, it can be said that they were established smoothly. In the first two years, either the production was not high, or the outlets were set up across the country. The companies mainly spent money, and naturally used the funds raised from shares. Nowadays, several state-owned companies have been developing for about two years, and it is time to gain. At least the dividends at the end of this year are more than the data that Emperor Chongzhen has already mastered.

Moreover, after the past two years of operation, whether it is cement, construction bank, or road and bridge company, it has been accepted by the Ming Dynasty. These new things have been taken root in the soil of the Ming Dynasty. No matter who it is, even Emperor Chongzhen himself, if he wants to abolish these things, he will not be able to do it by simply giving orders.

By this time, Emperor Chongzhen no longer allowed the six ministries to deal with the big money as if he had let the six ministries handle it themselves. The small treasury of each ministries' yamen could not have a huge amount, otherwise corruption would inevitably breed. So he secretly issued an order to Wang Chengen, the admiral of the East Factory, and began to check the dividends of the six ministries.

It’s true that Emperor Chongzhen opened the memorial and read it. As he expected, as Wang Chengen said, most of the money was put into the pockets of senior officials of the six ministries. In other words, most of the money was distributed by senior officials of the yamen. Among them, the Ministry of Personnel was prominent, while the Ministry of Rites was the least obvious.

Emperor Chongzhen saw that most of the stocks of Xu Guangqi, the Ministry of Rites, were used to promote scientific and technological knowledge and cultivate crops, which was obviously related to the interests and hobbies of the top leaders of the Ministry of Rites. Moreover, Sun Yuanhua, the second-in-chief of the Ministry of Rites, was still a student of Xu Guangqi. Although he was not interested in agricultural affairs, he was also passionate about science and technology.

After reading it, Emperor Chongzhen closed the memorial and sneered: "It seems that the Ministry of Personnel is used to running away from officials, so I am unscrupulous when I put away the money. I have dealt with it once before, but now it seems that I will deal with it again!"

When Wang Chengen heard this, he knew that the emperor was going to take action against the Ministry of Personnel. He couldn't help but feel happy. It seemed that the East Factory had work to do.

In the past two years, there has been a relatively obvious trend, that is, the Jinyiwei will participate more in military-related matters. Just as before, Wang Chengen knew that the people who passed messages from Yunnan through chat groups were the Jinyiwei people. There were wars everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, so the Jinyiwei was extremely active.

On the contrary, there were not many political achievements on the East Factory. Speaking of which, he led the people and copied the Southeast wealthy merchants to calculate one. However, the Jinyiwei had the merit of protecting the emperor, which was even more incomparable.

Now that the emperor is willing to rectify the administration, he will leave it to the East Factory to do more. Obviously, this should be the difference between the East Factory and the Jinyiwei. Since this is the case, if you want to do these responsibilities well, you will become famous and revitalize the Dongchang's reputation, and you will not be suppressed by the Jinyiwei.

At this time, Wang Chengen was still young and was only thinking about these things. But Emperor Chongzhen was different, and he had more considerations.

If it were the past, it would be better to rectify the administration of the six ministries and to be honest, even if the emperor was in charge, it would be hard to be so hard even if the factory guards were in hand.

There is a rule of the game in everything in the world. Even the emperor must follow the rules of the game. If anyone does not follow the rules, he will inevitably be opposed by the crowd. Can the country be governed by killing? This can only be an old farmer who cannot read the word "big" and think about killing corrupt officials and killing, and the world will be peaceful.

However, Emperor Chongzhen now has the capital to rectify the six ministries.

Most of the new policies in China were written by the emperor, or even invented by the emperor. Everyone has seen the benefits that these policies have brought to the Ming country and the Ming people. The earth-shaking changes in the Ming Dynasty in recent years are obvious to all. The emperor's wisdom is beyond doubt!

Foreign wars, such as the collection of Hetao as part of the Ming Dynasty, Dongwu changed his title to Tang State, and even had an imperial commander to personally regain Liaodong, which was helpless in the emperors of the three dynasties, and destroying the fierce Qing Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty is also obvious to all. The emperor's magical martial arts are beyond doubt!

Emperor Chongzhen's reputation at this time can be said to be chasing Taizu Chengzu. At least other emperors of the Ming Dynasty did not have the achievements of Emperor Chongzhen. Moreover, in the current cabinet, only the emperor's leader, the factory guards are loyal to the emperor. By the end of the year, the Liao army will return to the capital. With such evidence, taking six departments will only attract the praise of the people in the capital!

And there is another point that Emperor Chongzhen has always focused on public opinion control. Not to mention the capital. With the development of Luqiao Company in the south and with the popularity of storytelling such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Storyteller interpreted major affairs of the government during the advertising time of storytelling, and became a major source for the people of the Ming Dynasty to understand major affairs of the government. In this way, it can ensure that major affairs of the government will not be distorted, and public opinion will gradually be in control, at least not as controlled by scholars as before.

With all this, Emperor Chongzhen decided to return to the Liao army at the end of the year and after the military parade, he would rectify the administration and take back the shares distributed to the six ministries back to the treasury, and allocate the shares separately to ensure that they are used in practice.

He also decided to carry out the reform of the Salt Administration after the rectification of the Six Ministry, so that it can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Otherwise, without the cooperation of the subordinates, no matter how good the policies are, they will become bad. Just like the reform of Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty, it is a good example.

If Emperor Chongzhen implemented the reform at this time, although it would not be the same as Wang Anshi, the cabinet and factory guards were already in control, but it was still possible for the minor officials to make trouble. Regardless of the degree, it would still be better if something like the impact on innovation would happen less.

After thinking about this, Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts returned to the Annan Rebellion. After all, this involved the issue of the second vassal king. Haha, foreign powers began to intervene in the Ming Dynasty! It's a pity that it is now the Ming Dynasty, not the Qing Dynasty. If you want to intervene, you have to pay the price. At this time, the people sent by Sun Chuanting should also go to Haojingao.

He was right. At this time, the Jinyiwei Xiaoqi Ma San had already conveyed Sun Chuanting's order to the magistrate of Guangzhou Prefecture. At this time, he also accompanied the magistrate of Guangzhou Prefecture to Haojingao.

The prefect's full set of ceremonial wars were arranged, beating drums and drums. Before he could reach the military camp of Folang Jiren, the people of Haojingao had already come out to watch.

Speaking of which, the people of this era lack entertainment activities, and whenever there is a little fun, they like to watch. The rare prefect, who is a rare prefect, actually came to Haojingao, and brought so many yamen runners, making it so formal. This is strange enough. What happened?

They didn't know, but Shivera, the governor of the Folangjiren, probably knew it. However, he didn't expect that Ming Guo would react so quickly. According to the original plan, Ming Guo should have no time to react, right? Or was he wrong?

But no matter what he thought, the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture arrived, this was the most favored person of Folang Jiren, and he did not dare to neglect him and immediately went out to greet him.

"Boom boom boom" a few cannons, and the military camp gate opened wide. Schweila, with his men and translators, quickly came out. He knew that the Ming officials were the most concerned about face. As long as they gave enough face, sometimes, according to their words, if you gave me face, I would give you face, and everything would be easy to negotiate, and there would be a foundation.

However, this time, he seemed to have guessed wrong. Although it was a great gift, the governor of Guangzhou Prefecture was still very good and did not leave the sedan chair first. Instead, he came out of the sedan chair until Shivera and others bowed to him. And when he came out, his face was frozen.

Shi Weila looked up and saw this. Suddenly, she saw a man wearing a black official uniform flashing behind the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture. If he had not recognized this black official uniform before, after the last incident, Yu Xiaoqi and others who came to arrest the Qing envoy Bai Yangcui at that time gave him a deep impression. When he saw this black official uniform, he knew that this was the emperor's personal army and the people from the Jinyiwei also came.

At this moment, Schweila had already confirmed that the magistrate of Guangzhou Prefecture came to Haojingao without having to talk to him, and it was definitely for that matter.

Thinking of this, he quickly accompanied the smile and said to the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture: "The adults took the time to travel to Haojingao in their busy schedule. It is really a rare guest. It just happened that the despicable state-owned ship had just arrived, and there were some specialties from the despicable state. Please also appreciate it..."

To be honest, Shivera is also filial to the governor of Guangzhou Prefecture and Shivera every year. The relationship between the two parties basically maintains a friendly relationship. But at this time, when he said this, the governor of Guangzhou Prefecture had a serious face. Not only did he not take on this topic, he did not even make any politeness. He put on a majestic posture and shouted sternly: "I am hereby the order of the Governor, and there are two things that need to be verified and reported. Please listen..."

He was very rude when he spoke. Even if there were many Folangji soldiers in front of him, it was the same. At least he never thought that these Folangji people would dare to treat him, the Guangzhou parents! Otherwise, these Folangji people would never have a good ending, at least in Haojingao, or in the Ming Dynasty, it would be impossible to gain a foothold. Therefore, he had the confidence to despise these Folangji people and did not have to be polite to them.

When Schweila heard this, she felt something bad in her heart, but she didn't dare to make jokes, let alone change the subject, so she could only listen obediently.

"...First, why has the Nanyang grain that should have arrived last month not arrived yet?"

When Schvira heard this, he felt relieved. The agreed Nanyang food should have arrived, but because the war in Annan was about to begin, a large amount of food was urgently needed. The local Portuguese governor made the decision and intercepted all the food for the Annan Ruan family to attack the Zheng family in the north.

However, after Schvira found out, he had sent people to negotiate. The cold-faced governor of the Ming Dynasty attached great importance to food. With food, it would be easier when traded with the Ming Dynasty; therefore, the food given to the Ming Dynasty should not be deducted.

However, the food had been allocated to the army and could not be collected, so it was inevitable that he would delay it. The excuse he had prepared for saying that he was late because of the influence of the storm at sea, and he could not say it because of the delay.

"Sir, the grains have to be postponed a little because of various reasons." Shivera quickly squeezed her smile and explained to the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture. At the same time, she stared at the Jinyiwei with her eyes. "So, the country decided to spend extra money to buy an extra ship of grain and give it to the Ming Dynasty for free to express her apology. Haha, sir, we Folang Ji people are the most trustworthy..."

According to his idea, if he turned around and gave him an extra ship of food, it would not cost much anyway, so Ming Guo had an explanation.

The people watching not far away saw the governor of Folang Jiren, who was so servile to the prefect, smiled and pointed at the prefect. Thinking that these foreigners were really good at giving face to the adults, they could get the inner world.

But who knew that before Schvira finished speaking, he heard the angrily shouting from the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture: "All reasons? But because you, the Folang Jimen, intercepted the food of our official because they intervened in the local affairs of our Ming Dynasty and helped the rebel thief Annan Ruan family?"

The food from Nanyang was handed over here, which belonged to the affairs of the Guangzhou Prefecture and was also an important matter for the Guangzhou Prefecture. I was not happy with the delay, but I followed the explanation from Schweila. But unexpectedly, the Governor's Office actually sent the Jinyiwei here, so he had to pretend that he was not clear before and asked for a statement with righteousness.
