"It's time to draw the prizes. It's ten coins per draw. It's a lawsuit fund. If you don't have the money to file a lawsuit in the future, the fund will pay you to find a lawsuit master."
The Li Family Zhuangzi started to take action when the Honglu Temple still didn't know about Moxi's death.
Boxes for drawing prizes were placed everywhere in the Governor's Office.
The normal prizes were a bar of soap, a few pieces of fermented bean curd, a box of mosquito repellent incense …
The ten coins would be returned to the people who drew the prizes two years later.
It was equivalent to the people who drew the prizes using the ten coins interest to buy something. It was a good deal.
The Li Family Zhuangzi would use the money from the fund to invest. If anyone wanted to file a lawsuit, the Li Family Zhuangzi would help them find a lawsuit master.
The Li Family Zhuangzi released a total of 1,000 boxes. Each box contained 2,000 pieces of paper.
If all 2,000,000 pieces of paper were sold, they would get 20,000 coins.
Many people would draw one coin at a time. If they had money, they wouldn't have to pay and would get a bunch of daily necessities.
The officials of the Ministry of Justice were nervous. The number of people who would file a lawsuit in the Governor's Office would increase.
Normally, if there were any disputes, the district head of each district in Chang 'an would mediate. People didn't have to go to the Governor's Office.
The situation in the county was easier. A village could find the village head to mediate.
If the people didn't have the money to file a lawsuit, they might not be professional.
Now, if there were any problems, they could go directly to the people arranged by the Li Family Zhuangzi.
The Li Family Zhuangzi was buying houses in each county. They bought a house with a courtyard.
They also bought two houses in Chang 'an near the East and West Districts.
They were going to use the houses to hire a lawsuit master to intimidate the people with power. If they wanted to bully the honest people, the honest people would find a lawsuit master. The lawsuit master wouldn't be honest.
The candidates for the lawsuit master were the students who didn't pass the exam and lived in the houses of the migrant workers.
A large group of students was called to the big square of the Li Family Zhuangzi. Li Yi held a loudspeaker.
"Even if you pass the exam and become an official, you will still be asked to answer a question."
Li Yi started to talk about the process of the imperial examination.
The students whispered to each other. They didn't understand why they were called here today.
"The lawsuit fund has been established, but it lacks manpower. Based on the principle of voluntary participation, is there anyone who doesn't want to help the people solve their problems? Please raise your hand. "
Li Yi revealed the reason why he had gathered a group of people here.
The students looked at each other. They didn't want to be litigation masters. A litigation master's job wasn't for good people.
Just as someone was about to raise his hand, Li Yi's voice sounded again.
"Everyone, please don't have any misgivings. Just follow your hearts and raise your hands. I will definitely not take revenge. You can't say that you can't be a good official just because you don't want to help the people."
The student who almost raised his hand shivered in fright. That was close. Luckily, he didn't raise his hand.
"As expected, you're all people who serve the people wholeheartedly. This Li admires you greatly. Next, everyone, sign up. You'll be paid 50 yuan per person a day. "
Li Yi said that because of the high salary, the students needed to buy paper and candles to study.
The ink was easy to deal with. The Li Family Zhuangzi gave away the ink that was not made into ink blocks for free.
When the students heard that the salary was so high, they felt much better. Wasn't it just being a litigation master? They could even take the imperial examinations next year.
This wasn't considered a profession. It was a free service, the kind that didn't require any money.
The students went to the side to register and received an advance payment. They went to each county to choose a leader to manage the office funds.
The first batch of students took their luggage and went to various places in carriages.
The other students waited. They rotated once a month to earn the 50 yuan.
At the same time, they could also use their official position to study. There was also paper for office use.
In the Imperial City, Song Jing was busy.
When Bi Goo came back to be the Minister of Revenue, Li Yi gave him taxes as a gift.
When Song Jing came back to be the Minister of Justice, Li Yi gave him litigation master as a gift.
After arranging the work for them, none of them should think about being idle.
When Song Jing was working, Li Longji strolled in with his hands behind his back.
"Your Majesty." "Your Majesty!" The others hurriedly greeted.
Song Jing raised his head and stood up, "Your Majesty is here."
"How are you feeling?" Li Longji was concerned.
"My gastrointestinal tract isn't very good. I just need to recuperate for a few days this year and next year. I will be fine. Doctor Li's medical skills are good."
Song Jing was very grateful to Li Yi for not needing to take laxatives. The Imperial Physician had his ways, but it was uncomfortable to use them.
"Criminal cases are no small matter. The people depend on someone to help them seek justice. Li Yi has settled the litigation master's matter. The Ministry of Justice will be busy in the early stages. "
Li Longji encouraged Song Jing.
Song Jing brewed tea and poured it over, "Your Majesty is right. When the litigation master is out, the people will have to bring up old matters. When the case is settled, they will restrain themselves."
"Some of the minor officials who are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice have made small mistakes. Take a look at the minor ones and make a list."
Li Longji instructed a few things.
"Your subject obeys." Song Jing understood. His Majesty wanted a general pardon.
Li Longji took a sip of tea and prepared to leave.
Song Jing hurriedly said, "Your subject has overstepped his boundaries. The Turks are in internal strife. We should take this opportunity to weaken them."
"I know. Li Yi is in charge of this matter. He has been holding back for many days. It turns out that he is waiting for Moxie to die."
Li Longji said these words and left with his hands behind his back.
Song Jing wanted to ask Li Longji again. How did Li Yi know who would die? Could he predict?
Yesterday he asked Li Yi, and Li Yi said he dreamed of it. This …
At night, Li Longji's family of three went to Li Family Zhuangzi.
The people in the manor were busy packing the goods, packing the boxes and putting the bags in.
Soap, soap, toilet water, glycerin, and so on. Naturally, there was a kerosene lamp and a thermos bottle.
These were also under warranty. They were slightly more expensive and had to be shipped.
The kerosene lamp was 200 Jin, and the thermos bottle was 400 Jin.
"Brother Yi, where are you sending this to?" Li Longji asked curiously as he looked at the busy farmer.
"Moxie is dead. The Khitans and Turks have promised to build a good relationship with the Tang dynasty. They will send people to both sides and sell them to the Bohai Sea."
Li Yi gave the answer. He could start working now.
"It is not safe there. The tribes are fighting with each other. The Bohai Sea … the Bohai Sea is hiding its strength. "
Li Longji knew everything, including the Bohai Sea. He just did not have enough manpower.
Li Yi smiled and nodded, "Those who are obedient, trade well and change slowly. Those who are disobedient, kill them!"
Li Yi said these words without any anger. It was as if he was talking about what to eat for dinner.
"There are kerosene lamps and thermos bottles. How much are they?" Li Longji was in a good mood as he thought about making money from others.
"Two hundred, four hundred." Li Yi reported two numbers.
"The Khitans and Turks can't afford them. Only a few leaders can buy them. You have prepared too much."
Li Longji knew how poor others were.
"You are allowed to pay in installments, just like buying clothes. It can be divided into 30 installments, one installment per month. You can pay with things."
Li Yi helped others think of how to buy. He was not afraid of not having money. He could do it bit by bit.
"There are many problems, such as people dying, not paying for the next purchase, or being robbed by others."
Li Longji thought of the things that the Khitans and Turks would do. Those people were basically unreasonable.
Even if they agreed on a business deal, they would directly attack you when they saw that you were not strong enough.
Some would even kill people with long-term business relationships. Anyway, they should not be given any chance.
"There are ways to deal with it." Li Yi was still smiling.
