Chapter 538 Where's My Bonus?
At this moment, Zhang Hao was handing over some confessions to Jiajing. Jiajing sat there and watched. Now he was angry that he could not speak. For Jiajing, these people were private. They actually got so much money from the court and were corrupt.
"Find it all. No matter who he is, he will die. Who will come to catch people? Tell me, do you think he has the right to catch people?" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao with a dark face at this moment.
"Yes, the emperor, but now there is no need to continue to investigate. The house is searched, and all the property in their house has come out. If the investigation continues, it will only increase the workload, but they still deserve to die, but there are some fish that have missed the net.
We don’t have that much energy to deal with those fish that have missed the net now, but I believe they will jump out sooner or later, so don’t worry about dealing with them!” Zhang Hao sat there and said to Jiajing.
Jiajing nodded when he heard this and said, "The officials above have been packed up, and it's time to pack up the places. You will do it next year. You can clean up one place at a time. Officials who have not been checked cannot be transferred. I won't believe it. This Ming Dynasty cannot be clean!"
When Zhang Hao heard this, he looked at Jiajing depressedly.
"If you have time next year, go check it. If you take someone to check it, don't you let you do everything by yourself. Now you arrest and interrogate people, don't you have to do it yourself? There is no way to check the accounts, you can only come. If the others come, I'm not relieved. Who knows what they will do!" Jiajing immediately explained to Zhang Hao.
At this time, Lu Fang came in from outside and bowed to Jiajing and said, "Your Majesty, Taiyuan Prefect, Salt Affairs Supervisor Hu Zongxian, and Yanfu Deputy Supervisor Zhang Juzheng have returned to Beijing to report their duties. Now they are on the Ministry of Personnel! However, there seems to be no one on the Ministry of Personnel, so they need to wait, so they went outside Yuxi Palace and wanted to see Your Majesty!"
"Oh, let them come in!" Jiajing said with a smile when he heard this.
"It's been back. I thought they wouldn't come back for the New Year!" Zhang Hao also said with a smile.
"Well, you can listen to it later. You are in charge of those things. Although they will report to you, you still have to listen to it now. These two people have done a good job. I don't plan to mobilize Hu Zongxian now and let him stay in Taiyuan for a while. If possible, if he doesn't make mistakes, he will of course be in a few years. What are your considerations about Shanxi governor Zhang Juzheng?" Jiajing asked Zhang Hao.
"What am I thinking about? What does it have to do with me? I am not the Minister of Personnel!" Zhang Hao immediately looked at Zhang Hao depressedly and said.
"You boy, they are your people!" Jiajing continued to stare at Zhang Hao.
"Don't talk nonsense, my people, they are from the court, the emperor, your people, the people of the world. I just teach them how to do things, but no matter what official they are!" Zhang Hao immediately said to Jiajing seriously.
"You, lazy! Did you forget what I told you before?" Jiajing looked at Zhang Hao and said helplessly.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Hao asked inexplicably.
"I just knew you had forgotten that you needed to train some people. When you have any problems in the future, you don't have to argue with the ministers yourself. Do you lose the price so much?" Jiajing continued to look at Zhang Hao.
"Then I don't do it. I have to hammer them to death myself, so I'll be satisfied!" Zhang Hao immediately said with a blank look. When Jiajing heard this, he was speechless to Zhang Hao. Why is this kid still in this kind of virtue now? He just wants to hammer someone to death?
"Okay, you have to pay more attention to their growth anyway, do you know? If they have any difficulties, you can help me, don't ignore anything. After all, they are also brought by you!" Jiajing continued to teach Zhang Hao and said,
Zhang Hao nodded and then said, "If it's a crime, then I can't spare them. If it's not a crime and I want to ask me for help, then I can consider it!"
"Well, that's it!" Jiajing pointed a little,
Hu Zongxian and Zhang Juzheng at the gate of Yuxi Palace were also very nervous. They had just gone to the Ministry of Personnel to report their duties, but there was no one in the Ministry of Personnel. Now the Ministry of Personnel is too busy, so they made an appointment for them. They would come here the morning after tomorrow to report their duties.
Now many officials of the Ministry of Personnel have been arrested. They want to go to the Jinyiwei to find Zhang Hao, but learned that Zhang Hao was not in the Jinyiwei, but came to the Danfang, so the two of them mustered up the courage to come to Yuxi Palace and find the above positions of the emperor. After all, their previous memorials were submitted directly to Jiajing. Zhang Hao asked them to report to Jiajing directly.
"Two sirs, Your Majesty summons you in the alchemy room!" At this time, a eunuch came over and said to the two of them.
"Oh, okay, thank you, my father-in-law!" Hu Zongxian and Zhang Juzheng immediately bowed and said, and the two of them followed the eunuch to the side of the alchemy room.
"I wonder if Mr. Lu An is here too?" Hu Zongxian asked carefully from behind.
"Here, as long as Mr. Lu An has no errands, he is basically in the Danfang. The emperor also has many things to tell him. If nothing is wrong, Mr. Lu An is also sleeping and resting in the Danfang, or just drinking tea!" The eunuch said respectfully immediately.
That eunuch dared not offend Zhang Hao, and he couldn't afford to offend him. However, Zhang Hao was very easy to talk to and never made things difficult for the eunuchs. On the contrary, he respected them very much. Even their ancestors liked Zhang Hao very much. Soon, the eunuch took them outside the alchemy room.
"Old ancestor, the person has been brought here!" The eunuch saw Lu Fang standing at the door waiting, immediately rushed over and saluted Lu Fang.
"Yes!" Lu Fang nodded.
"I have met Eunuch Lu!" Hu Zongxian was also very respectful when he didn't see Lu Fang.
"Well, Your Majesty and Mr. Lu An are looking forward to your return. Now you are inside. Don't forget the rules. Although Mr. Lu An and Mr. Lu An value you very much, don't cause trouble to Mr. Lu An, right?" Lu Fang stood there and said to the two of them.
"Thank you, Eunuch Lu, for your reminder!" the two of them hurriedly bowed.
"Well, follow me!" Lu Fang said and walked inside. When they got inside, the two of them immediately saluted Jiajing.
"Well, no gift, it looks much more mature, right, barbarian?" Jiajing sat there, smiling and asked Zhang Hao.
"It's a bit mature!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.
"Come here and sit down. There are only a few of us here. Let's have tea and chat, and talk about the matter on salt!" Jiajing greeted them with a smile.
"This? Your Majesty!"
"It's okay, come and sit down, come!" Jiajing said with a smile.
"Yes. I've passed the test and forgive me!" Hu Zongxian and the others hurriedly bowed, then sat down carefully, not daring to make a porcelain stoneware at all.
"You two have done well. I have told the barbarians that you two are still very steady in Shanxi. I feel relieved to give the salt to you two!" Jiajing sat there and said.
"Thank you, the emperor, for your mission. I only try my best to do my best and dare not let down the holy grace!" Hu Zongxian immediately bowed and said.
"Well, let's talk about what you do with salt. As for your work in Taiyuan, you can go to the Ministry of Personnel to report your duties and ask them to comment!" Jiajing said with a smile.
"Yes, the emperor!" the two of them stood up and bowed.
"Sit down and say, sit down and say!" Jiajing said with a smile. After a while, the two of them began to report on the work they did in salt, mainly building the entire sales system.
In terms of procurement, they gave the salt owners a better price so that they could get good salt. Jiajing listened to their report for half an hour and was very satisfied. After they finished reporting, Jiajing nodded and said, "No, this thing is good, stinky brat, look, the system you made is good!"
"I'm just lazy. I'm thinking that if there is so much money, if there is no complete system, I don't know whose pocket the money will be!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.
"Lu Fang, come here to get 15,000 taels of silver!" Jiajing said to Lu Fang behind him.
"Yes!" Lu Fang went out immediately, and after a while, he came with the silver notes.
"Come on, Hu Zongxian, you, ten thousand taels, Zhang Juzheng, you five thousand taels!" Jiajing put the silver notes in front of them.
"This, Your Majesty, I dare not!" The two of them immediately knelt down.
"Get up, I reward you. You are all talents of my Ming Dynasty. I know that poor can force people to be greedy. I don't want you to be poor, nor do I want you to go to the wrong path. If you are short of money, you can tell me, but don't take what you shouldn't take.
It is not easy for you to keep your original intentions with so much money. I don’t want a stingy emperor, nor an emperor who doesn’t understand the sufferings of the world. Take this money and spend a good New Year. I will prepare files for the Ministry of Personnel at that time. Don’t worry about spending it!" Jiajing sat there and said to the two of them.
"I, thank you Your Majesty!" The two of them immediately kowtowed.
"Okay, get up, have a tea, it's good, it's good!" Jiajing said with a smile at this moment.
"Emperor, where are me?" Zhang Hao immediately stared at Jiajing and asked.
"What?" Jiajing looked at Zhang Hao without understanding.
"Do I have no bonus? I have done a lot of things too!" Zhang Hao continued to ask.
"Get out, bastard, you can get more than one million taels of dividend this year. You also asked me if I wanted the money. Do you believe it or not? I will find a way to deduct your money?" Jiajing immediately pointed at Zhang Hao threateningly and shouted.
"Stingy!" Zhang Hao immediately said to Jiajing with contempt.
"I'm still stingy, hey, you bastard, you're unreasonable!" Jiajing was speechless at this moment. He didn't have the idea to make money this year.
