"The Military Affairs Department and the Ministry of Personnel have organized a specific charter together. In addition, the Ministry of Revenue needs to inform you and hand it over after it is done." Zhu Yicheng said this. Although he had no objection to the general direction of this matter, he still needs to carefully consider how to implement it.

Furthermore, this matter not only involves the Ministry of Personnel, but also involves the Ministry of Revenue. Although Xinming has different localities and the rights of the Governor's yamen are greater than that of the local ban, the salaries of officials, etc., from the beginning, Zhu Yicheng restricted them from being directly distributed through the Governor's yamen, and must be dealt with by the central government's yamen. This is to avoid the excessive rights of the Governor's yamen, especially in this way to master the entire finance of Xinming, and to privately give favors or block the salaries of Xinming officials.

Zhu Yicheng has never believed in the so-called rule of man. In his opinion, it is rare for honest officials, but honest officials are not necessarily good official officials. In history, many honest officials only leave their reputation for being honest, but have no practical achievements in government affairs.

On the contrary, there are many so-called corrupt officials, among which there are many capable officials. Of course, Zhu Yicheng's attitude is not to let corrupt officials go, otherwise the Fujian case would not have been so big. In recent years, the Ming Dynasty has been very strict with the administration of officials, and its purpose is to avoid corruption.

In the final analysis, Zhu Yicheng wanted to use the law to bind it, and in the words of later generations, it was the legal system. The implementation of the system is long-term, not to mention that as an emperor, he must look to the future.

Everyone in this world will never escape death, and Zhu Yicheng is the same as the emperor. The so-called long live does not exist at all. There are very few emperors in history who can survive more than 70, and Zhu Yicheng has to consider the future.

Although the current prince satisfies Zhu Yicheng in terms of character and education, and he has also formulated a future royal children education system, everything in the world cannot be covered. Even if Zhu Yicheng is so wise and powerful, who can guarantee what will happen in the future after he dies?

Therefore, establishing a system and improving the concept of the legal system, especially some necessary procedures, is necessary. This is the basis for ensuring the future development of the Ming Dynasty. It can also prevent the Ming Dynasty from moving forward with the inertia of sound system rather than a cliff-like collapse.

"I understand that after communicating with the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue, it sorted out the provisions to inherit from the Emperor."

"The matter of officials is settled for the time being. What do you think about immigration?" Zhu Yicheng nodded and asked Wang Dong's question of continuing to increase immigration.

"This..." Jiang Jin hesitated for a moment and replied softly: "Go back to the emperor, Liaodong is now in a shortage of people. Although the population of North Korea is filled, my Ming people are the foundation. This has been reported to the emperor before."

"I know that the immigration to Liaodong cannot be reduced, but on the contrary, I need strong support. I am asking whether the amount of immigration to Xinming can be increased without affecting Liaodong."

Jiang Jin frowned and thought for a moment, shook his head slightly and said, "Emperor, now our Ming Dynasty has entered a prosperous era. People in Jiangnan, Zhili, Guangdong and Guangxi, Huguang, Central Plains, even the southwest, northwest and other places live and work in peace and contentment, and all praise the emperor's kindness..."

"Before, the imperial court immigrated to Xinming, and most of the elected people were war-torn refugees or lost people. These people went overseas for their livelihoods. But now they are different from the past. The people have lived a lot better. In addition, in recent years, the development of industry and commerce has made ordinary people the ability to rely on industry and commerce to support their families even if they do not farm. The people of Ming Dynasty have always been attached to their hometowns. It may not be easy to let them leave their hometowns and go abroad. Besides, in Liaodong... I am frightened, and I can't think of any good way for a while, so I ask the emperor to punish him."

Waving his hand, Zhu Yicheng stopped Jiang Jin and continued to speak, sitting in his seat and pondering silently.

Jiang Jin's words are not unreasonable, and what he said is true. Although the Ming Dynasty seems to be strong now, the population in the country is not very large. According to He Xianzu's previous report to Zhu Yicheng, the yellow book registration statistics record is recorded, and the national population, including North Korea, is less than 40 million.

The population of 40 million is not included in Xinming. This amount seems to be quite large, but in fact, the population amount is far from enough for the expansion of Daming.

According to the documents sent by the Military Affairs Office before, at least about 3 million immigrated to Liaodong alone. With such a vast area of ​​Liaodong, the immigration of 3 million is just southern Liaoning, and this number will continue to increase in the future.

At present, the immigration of Liaodong is strategically based on some immigration from North Korea to Liaodong. In a sense, although it was the Ming Dynasty's way of completely controlling North Korea and reducing class confrontation within North Korea. On the other hand, it was also the helplessness of the Ming Dynasty, because the rapid development of the Ming Dynasty in China has made people's lives better and better. The people have land to farm, work, and can support their families, and naturally they are unwilling to leave their hometowns and travel thousands or even thousands of miles away.

Moreover, the total population of North Korea is not large at present. According to Lee's statistics, the entire population of North Korea is only 2 million. Don't forget that North Korea has a 3,000-mile territory. This shows that the fundamental problem of North Korea is actually the previous class contradiction, not the population.

The two million North Koreans are still insufficient even if they move all of these people to Liaodong. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty would not do so. According to statistics from the Military Affairs Office, the maximum number of North Korean immigrants is only 120,000, or about 500,000 to 600,000.

It can be seen from this that the court has already put a lot of pressure on immigration to Liaodong, let alone continue to immigrate to Xinming? This is also the main reason for the sharp decline in the number of immigration to Xinming.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yicheng couldn't help but envy the huge population of China in later generations. Even the 400 million population in the late Qing Dynasty was fine! No matter how bad it was, as long as the Ming Dynasty had a population of 200 million, these problems could be solved. But now the population base is here, and the population growth is not like a hen laying eggs, which can be transformed into a spring and autumn.

According to what Zhu Yicheng and He Xianzu said before, the Ming Dynasty needed to double its population in ten years, but now it has only been less than a year, so this is a long-term task that cannot be solved in a short period of time.

Zhu Yicheng thought, but Jiang Jin didn't say anything, waiting quietly for Zhu Yicheng to speak.

After a long time, Zhu Yicheng said: "Immigration work must be carried out in Xinming. In addition, let the Ministry of Justice discuss that any criminal who is not guilty of death will be sent overseas according to the severity of his sentence to be used as the number of immigrants."

"Your Majesty, this is not right. These prisoners are not good people. What if something happens overseas before?" Jiang Jin frowned and thought for a while.

"Let these people be kept under strict supervision from overseas, and first restrain them by labor reform, and wait until the sentence expires before they are placed one by one." Zhu Yicheng added, and Jiang Jin reluctantly agreed.

Seeing Jiang Jin's expression, Zhu Yicheng knew what he was worried about, but now there is only one way. In fact, it is not only the Ming Dynasty, but also the whole world today. In order to control overseas territories or colonies, Western countries also use criminals as immigrants to deport criminals.
