Zhu Xu put down the teacup, and from his gaze, he could see most of Bi Ziyan's side face.
Cold, indifferent.
Bi Ziyan looked down at the 'manuscript' in his hand, and his brows never relaxed.
The rest of the big people are also waiting, waiting for the 'business' plan of the cabinet.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has established a strict commercial law, in which restrictions, discrimination, and harshness are unprecedented, even if at this time, the national government is corrupt, and many laws and disciplines are abolished, which is virtually useless, but the discrimination against businessmen has been deeply rooted, and businessmen are still the lowest group of people, even craftsmen are not as good!
In the past few years, in order to obtain the normal status of the imperial examination, the big salt merchants in various places made a lot of noise, and the imperial court had no choice but to give a 'quota', and the huge system of harsh laws has never changed.
However, today's emperor and the imperial court are determined to reform, and commercial law must be the top priority!
Elder Bi Ge, how will he speak?
Everyone is watching and waiting.
Bi Ziyan has been talking for more than two hours, although he doesn't feel soreness, he feels really uncomfortable.
He took a sip of tea, lifted his spirits, and said: "Commerce is the oldest kind of business, it has been exercised for more than 2,000 years, there was a heavy business, there was a harsh business, at the beginning of the establishment of our dynasty, there were many regulations on commerce, to this day, it is deserted, the imperial court after many discussions, decided to formulate a more feasible, prudent, perfect, covering all aspects, meticulous commercial law, from the government management, the scope of business, types, taxes, regions, prices, etc., to make it compliant and legal, effective and sustainable......"
Everyone listened silently, and their hearts were secretly relieved.
Bi Ziyan is talking about 'building from a high vantage,' but the actual content is completely absent, and the specific measures are still in the future, 'to be discussed.'"
Zhu Xu picked up the teacup, blinked, and looked calm.
Bi Ziyan continued: "The cabinet will establish a commercial management department directly under it to ensure the stable development of commerce, the State Administration of Taxation is responsible for all commercial taxes, and the separation of tax administration is the consistent principle of the imperial court, and the local government shall not be subordinate to ......."
"Discriminatory regulations on the clothing, food, housing and transportation of merchants will be abolished, especially the imperial examinations, and there will be no more restrictions......
Speaking of this, Bi Ziyan frowned slightly and paused.
The adults in the hall couldn't help but look at each other left and right, with a sad expression.
Who is a businessman?
Seeing profit and forgetting righteousness, buying low and selling high, they are all extremely unbearable people in terms of law and etiquette, will they stand with such people in the court in the future?
A copper stink, full of dirty!
Bi Ziyan continued, Zhu Xu's gaze swept over everyone in the hall calmly, and he could read one or two of their expressions, eyes, and deep thoughts.
"The end."
After a long time, Bi Ziyan looked at everyone, his face was as usual, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He didn't move, according to the established agenda, the next thing is the time for the officials to 'question' him, he has to answer well, and then conduct a 'vote of confidence' in the cabinet, and less than half of them will be automatically removed from office, and they will not be allowed to serve again in the future!
The officials also knew that when they looked at the paper in front of them, they looked up at Bi Ziyan, and then turned to Zhu Xu, all of them with slightly condensed expressions.
Bi Ziyan's 'draft' must have passed through the emperor, and if they oppose it, wouldn't it be tantamount to opposing the emperor?
Sun Chuanting looked around, glanced at Zhu Xu, and was about to speak, when Zhu Xu suddenly coughed and said, "I will add two words." ” Everyone looked slightly shocked, some people habitually stood up, and even Bi Ziyan turned around and looked at Zhu Xu with a slight gaze.
Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "Sit down, I will say a few words casually." ” The officials in the hall looked very calm, their hearts were uneasy, and they looked at Zhu Xu worriedly, and they didn't dare to breathe.
Zhu Xu sat there, not angry and arrogant, and said: "The first point is about the 'New Deal'......
It's not my business alone, and it's not something I'm doing alone.
This is the reality of the situation, all the Ming people look forward to and desire in their hearts.
From the beginning of Zhang Juzheng's reform, it means that I need to change, and it is urgent!
I am entrusted by all the people to rule the whole world, I want to do things for the common people, for the community, and do things that others dare not do!
The ancestors and ancestors are in front, and the annals of history are behind, all staring at us, we have no second way to go except for 'determined not to change' and 'indomitable'!
I must not allow the 'New Deal' to be discounted, let alone go backwards!
Whoever dares to oppose me on the 'New Deal' is to put all the people in the world to death, I will never agree, all the officials of my Ming Dynasty will not agree, and my Ming army's two million troops will not agree either!
” Zhu Xu's words landed soundly, sonorous and powerful, echoing endlessly throughout the hall.
Everyone was silent, the emperor was warning and swearing, expressing his firm attitude to all officials in the world.
Zhu Xu didn't care what they thought, and said: "The second point is the law, the chaos of my Ming Dynasty in the past hundred years is because of the lack of law and the lack of discipline, I hope that everyone here can keep their hearts, not be tempted, know where the road is, and which direction should their feet go!"
I and the imperial court will establish a more comprehensive and strict inspection system to crack down on all unscrupulous, corrupt officials and corrupt officials!
At this point, the local government must be absolutely consistent with the imperial court, and no exceptions are allowed!
” The pin drop can be heard in the hall, and the emperor rarely speaks in front of everyone, but once he says it, no one can ignore it, otherwise he will be unlucky!
"The third point," Zhu Xu paused for a moment and said: "'Agricultural Administration' is the foundation of my Ming Dynasty, in the reform involving 'Agricultural Administration', the local government should rush to the forefront, it is not me and the imperial court that force you, you are willing to do things, the imperial court uses very much force, you only do three points, and even, the imperial court has made a plan, you are still shouting that this is not good, that is not appropriate, is there a problem with the imperial court's 'agricultural policy', or are you not willing to touch it at all, do it?"
I put this sentence here, before you leave Beijing, you all write a notebook to me, the writing is not good, not profound, just stay in the capital, I personally teach it stroke by stroke!

” A cold sweat broke out on everyone's heads, and sure enough, as they guessed, the emperor was angry!
In the hall, there was not even a loud pant, and a cold flowed.
"Fourth," Zhu Xu paused for a long time this time, and said: "Shinong industry and commerce are the first indispensable part of my Ming Dynasty, and every part has contributed to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, and these cannot be erased."
Now, I need the efforts and support of all people in Daming, and I have abolished the lowly status, which is to release the craftsmen and release their energy.
The enactment of the 'Commercial Law' is to give freedom to merchants, and now my annual commercial tax in the Ming Dynasty adds up to nearly 10 million taels of silver in all aspects, which accounts for more than one-third of the national treasury, have you ever thought about what this means to the imperial court?
Without this part, how serious are the consequences?
” "In addition to the commercial law, I have also decided to fully open the sea ban from this year and encourage business at sea, which is a national policy, and no one is allowed to obstruct or restrict policy, governance, or even words......
The locality must be completely consistent with the policy of the imperial court, but anyone who dares to confront the imperial court and me will be disciplined like iron and the law will not be merciful!
” The hall was quiet and my heart was beating like thunder.
The emperor is not untargeted, he is coldly warning them!
