Therefore, after Sima Guang's death, most of the prime ministers were selected from people who were close to Sima Guang.

Even Su Che benefited from this and became a prime minister.

Now, she would not treat a "loyal veteran" like Han Jiang badly.

Han Jiang held the potion in her hand to express her gratitude: "The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager trusted the old minister, and the old minister burst into tears with gratitude."

"It's just that the old minister is not only lax in running the family and employing people improperly, but also has many omissions in the laws he enforces..."

This is what he really wanted to say.

That is his real purpose.

Over the past year, the review of military service laws has continued, but during the review and practice process, too many problems have emerged.

The same goes for the green seedling method.

The more you practice, the more problems you will find.

If Han Jiang were ten years younger, he would definitely die without exposing these problems.

Maybe they will try their best to whitewash it and cover up the problem.

But he will retire soon.

Once he takes office, the problems he covered up will immediately explode.

Expect his successor to clean up his mess?

What are you thinking!

Han Jiang has been an official for decades, does he know very well what his colleagues are like?

Expect them to wipe their own butts and clean up their mess?

Don't even think about it.

It is already a great honor to avoid adding insult to injury.

Of course, there is another factor that influenced Han Jiang to make this decision.

That is the existence of the Detective Department and Bianjing Newspaper.

Bianjing Xinbao can even track and calculate the prices in Bianjing city.

Don't they know what happened in the Xiangfang and Luli?

The two palaces in the curtain couldn't help but sit up straight.

"My lord, haven't we always said that the review of the military service law and the revision of the young crop law are appropriate?" asked the Empress Dowager.

Han Jiang held the fluorene and bowed: "This is my sin."

"Since the review of the Service Law, it has been decreed that for households below the third class, the amount of service/exemption paid will be reduced or exempted. For the third class households, the fee will be reduced by half. For the first and second class households, the payment will be as normal."

"Since various regulations were implemented in the counties and towns of Kaifeng Prefecture, households below the third level all say: Merciful Saint, Kindness, Son of Heaven, Holy Might..."

"Even third-class households receive preferential treatment and are always grateful."

"However, love problems are also constantly appearing."

With that said, Han Jiang introduced to Zhao Xu and the two palaces the problems faced in the implementation of the new military regulations.

First of all, when it comes to hiring people to serve, prices in Bianjing are high and labor is also high.

A lot of Yaqian transportation work requires hiring people at a high price.

In the past, because of the Baojia Law, local officials could save money by relying on the labor force of Baojia households for free.

Such as water conservancy repairs, road construction, etc.

In the past, local governments recruited Baojia households, under the guise of training and review, and asked Baojia households to bring their own dry food to help with the work.

For example, when the late emperor built the city of Bianjing, a large number of Baojia households participated in it.

But now that the Baojia Law has been abolished, local officials suddenly no longer have free prostitute labor, and they can only use the exemption money to hire people.

But the wages in Bianjing City are too high - in Bianjing City, a young man can earn at least 100 yuan a day.

In Kaifeng Mansion, wages are at least seventy or eighty yuan a day.

As a result, the number of people the government can hire begins to decrease, and many things begin to be short of money.

If that's all, then that's it.

The key lies in the guarantee.

When the government hires people to do work, it must be guaranteed by someone.

who?

Situation household!

Because only these people can provide sufficient collateral and guarantees.

This has caused local power to expand in many places.

Because they brought those who served the government into their own hands by providing mortgages and guarantees.

Those who eat are soft-mouthed and those who take advantage of others are short-handed.

If things go on like this, these families may evolve into the aristocratic families of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

All in all, it's a lot of trouble.

Over at Qingmiao Law, the situation is similar.

For example, the new convenient low-interest loans have abolished the performance assessment requirements of the past Youth Law.

The Changping officials were all lying down.

People borrow money, whether they like it or not, and they don't do performance evaluation anyway.

How was the constant liquidation method corrupted in the past? Today's convenient and low-interest loans are also running in the direction of the constant liquidation method.

What's even worse is that the new regulations on the exemption law have given local households a great opportunity.

These guys took the opportunity to take advantage of the network they had mastered and built, and began to act like rats.

The principal of the convenient low-interest loan in Changpingcang was borrowed by these people.

When they turned around, they gave the money to the people outside.

The interest rate is 30%, 40%, nine out and thirteen out.

That’s it, still in Kaifeng Mansion!

There are countless eyes staring at the place. If you go to the local level, you can't imagine what the bureaucrats will do with convenient low-interest loans.

Of course, these new regulations are not entirely problematic.

At least, the new labor law has reduced the burden on people from third-class households and below.

In Kaifeng Prefecture alone, it has benefited more than one million people.

Convenient and low-interest loans are even more popular in Bianjing City.

Now it has surpassed all major quality warehouses and has become a well-known and trustworthy business!

Yes!

This is indeed a deal!

Even in modern times, countless people want to get a business loan with an annual interest rate of two cents.

How much more so in this day and age?

If Zhao Xu had not intervened and stipulated a new low-interest loan for the public, each household could only borrow a maximum of 100 yuan, and collateral was required.

I'm afraid that all the wool in Changping Warehouse in Kaifeng Prefecture will be harvested.

Relying on this convenient and low-interest loan, the small handicraft industry, small workshops and small business groups in Bianjing City have flourished.

But, as long as you leave Bianjing City.

It's just another scene.

Convenience and low-interest loans are either waiting to rot in the government treasury, or they flow into the hands of local households.

These middlemen took government loans with an annual interest rate of two cents and gave them to farmers, earning more than double the profits.

no way!

This is the current situation of the Song Dynasty.

Outside Bianjing City, even in the vast rural areas within Kaifeng Prefecture, the average per capita enrollment in prenatal education is limited.

The people were trapped on the land, and most of them had never even been to Bianjing in their entire lives.
Chapter completed!
