Qianlong's gifts to the ministers could not be considered unkind. On the contrary, the gifts and rewards given by Qianlong could be said to be quite kind.
However…
The premise is that I can give it to you, but you can't take it.
This was crossing the line!
To use a phrase from a movie two hundred years later, what I give you is yours. If I don't give it to you, you can't snatch it.
Qianlong was like this!
He can give you a generous reward, but, but, you can't ask for it casually.
Then, Liu Hao slowly said,""I hope that Your Majesty can arrange for bailiffs to be sent to Tong County. The more refugees there are in Tong County, the more cases of theft will occur. If we can't restrain them, it will be difficult to educate these refugees in the future!”
Oh?
Qianlong raised his eyebrows slightly. He had thought that Liu Hao would take the opportunity to ask for a high official position. He did not expect Liu Hao to make such a request.
"Arrange for bailiffs? Why are there so many sneaky things?”Qianlong asked curiously.
"My Lord, long live these refugees. Their clothes are not enough to cover their bodies, and they do not have enough food to eat!”Liu Hao quickly said," You can say that he's a boorish person. He has never heard of the ways of the saints. Therefore, things like stealing chickens and touching dogs often happen. This is the loss of the Emperor's money. No matter what, he should be cautious." I believe that these refugees should be restrained. If we don't restrain them and don't punish them to make them respect us, how can we help them in the future?!”
Qianlong couldn't help but nod.
That's right, one less chicken, one less chicken, that's my loss.
How could the money of the Internal Affairs Bureau be the same as the money of the Ministry of Revenue?
Later on, when he heard Liu Hao's restraint and enlightenment, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Qianlong nodded and continued,""My dear minister, you're right!"
Liu Hao stole a glance at Qianlong before continuing,""Now, all the income of the chickens and ducks in Tong County has to be handed over to the Internal Affairs Department. If we lose even a little, it will be the Emperor's loss. Therefore, I dare to ask the Emperor to grant us a favor and establish Tong County as a county!“
"Set up a county?" Qianlong's brows relaxed slightly."Why?"
"Your Majesty! " Liu Hao slowly said," This county is bathed in the emperor's grace. This humble subject believes that since this is the case, this county can not set up taxes. All the income in the county can be directly handed over to the Internal Affairs Bureau according to the proportion.“
At this point, Liu Hao paused for a moment before continuing,""I'm afraid we don't have that much money!”
Qianlong couldn't help but nod his head. He was naturally aware of this situation. How could he not know about the corruption of officials? However, in Qianlong's eyes, this was only an individual phenomenon. The entire Qing Dynasty was still very good overall, but there was some corruption in some parts.
It was not a big problem.
As for He Shen, this was just a big gift that Qianlong had raised.
However, Qianlong also understood that it was very different if this money went into the Ministry of State Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
After entering the Internal Affairs Bureau, he could spend whatever he wanted, but after entering the national treasury, it was hard to say.
This money was too much. Twenty thousand taels of silver a month.
In fact, the forms and account books that Liu Hao made were also sent to Qianlong.
Of course, this account book had been tampered with. At the very least, Qianlong could not know how much a chicken and a duck were worth. Otherwise, how could he cheat the money from the Internal Affairs Bureau into his hands?
Even so, Qianlong couldn't understand the first impression he had. However, after he looked through the account book carefully, he realized that the profits were so high.
Such a large sum of money, sent to the Ministry of Revenue, Qianlong was naturally unwilling.
It would only be his after entering the Internal Affairs Office.
He Shen chimed in,"That's right, Your Majesty. If this money goes into the Ministry of Revenue, it won't be entering the Internal Affairs Office. It's better to set this rule as soon as possible. The money will go directly into the Internal Affairs Office.!”
Qianlong laughed,"Heshen, you're right!"”
Liu Hao slowly said," Your Majesty, I think this county should be called Shengen County. It's for these refugees to bathe in the grace of the Emperor and thank His Majesty for his grace. What do you think?"”
Saint Grace County?
Qianlong laughed and said,""This Saint Grace County is too flashy. How about we call it Grace County?”
"En County?" He Shen immediately said,"Good name, really good name!"”
Qianlong was in a good mood at this moment. He glanced at Liu Hao and continued,"Liu Hao, I confer you the title of a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue and give you the position of a thousand households.”
"You can choose the thousand-household soldiers of En County. On one hand, it is to prevent theft from happening. On the other hand, in the future, if En County wants to borrow water transport, it can also be used to transport food!”
"My emperor is wise!" Liu Hao bowed again.
After scolding the person next door, the Qing Dynasty really had a lot of etiquette.
This time, the Emperor had directly promoted himself by one rank, from the sixth rank to the fifth rank. Moreover, he was also a civil and military part-time.
He was a 5th Rank doctor of the Ministry of Revenue and also a 5th Rank thousand household.
The speed of his promotion was also extremely fast. However, He Shen was not worried at all. On one hand, he had already thought of how to rope Liu Hao in. On the other hand, the most crucial point was.
Liu Hao was not a Manchu.
No matter how important Liu Hao was to Qianlong, there was always a limit. He would never let Liu Hao hold too much power.
Qianlong had always had a balance in his heart between Manchu and Han people.
"Liu Hao, go home and wait for the imperial edict!”"Zhen, Heshen has already set up a banquet. Zhen, will not keep you!" Qianlong said slowly.”
Next, it was time to continue the relationship between father and daughter.
"I understand. I'll take my leave!" Liu Hao bowed slightly, but he was thinking about how to expand the influence of En County.
Liu Hao did not care much about being a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue. What he really cared about was his position as a thousand household.
As the name implied, a thousand households had a thousand soldiers under them.
Of course, 9,999 was also a thousand households. However, no one in this world dared to play word games with the emperor.
It would be best if he could make use of this unique advantage to have a personal guard that was completely loyal to him.
