Chapter 1280 The advent of the era of editing by Xiao Feng after Yongping Prefecture of Gengzi Volume
"Ziying, you are getting married in the capital. You and I cannot be absent at the same time, so I have to ask someone to bring you a gift to express your happiness. Congratulations." Seeing Feng Ziying coming to the door, Zhu Zhiren smiled brightly.
He has received reliable news from Beijing. Although Zheng Jizhi, his great backer, has taken office, he still recommended him before taking office. If nothing unexpected happens, he will go to Beijing to take office in March at the latest.
It’s just that the issue of position has not been decided yet. It is impossible to be the Minister of Taichang Temple. That is the third rank. The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple is the fourth rank, which is considered average. Or the minister of Honglu Temple is also the fourth rank, but he is better than the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. After all, being in charge of sacrifices, court meetings, and banquets is also very glamorous.
There are two other positions, Taipu Temple Minister and Guanglu Temple Minister, but these two positions are from the third rank, which means that you must be promoted to one level to be eligible to sit in this position.
It turned out that Zhu Zhiren had also had extravagant hopes, but soon the people from Huguang Township in DPRK gave up his hope.
As a local official in Beijing, unless you have made outstanding achievements or made great contributions, it is very rare for you to be assigned a position at the same level. This is because of Zheng Jizhi's strong recommendation before he took office. If there is anything else, A little out of touch with current affairs.
So the most likely possibility is that he is the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple or the Minister of Honglu Temple, but no matter which position, Zhu Zhiren is satisfied.
As long as he can leave the local area and go to Beijing to serve as a Beijing official, he has no shortage of money, but he lacks the qualifications for a Beijing official.
Even if you become an official in three to five years, it would be great whether you stay in Beijing and become a rich man, or you return to your hometown and become a country squire.
Zhu Zhiren also vaguely received some news, saying that the big bosses in Beijing were also very satisfied with Feng Ziying's performance in Yongping Mansion, especially the performance of Yongping Pingzhuang in the battle of Qian'an compared with the disastrous defeat of Jingying, which made the emperor appreciate it very much. Maybe this The boy was about to be promoted after being dissatisfied with his work for three years, which made Zhu Zhiren sigh with emotion but also with envy.
However, he is not jealous. He achieved this feat based on his ability and bravery, and he even benefited a lot from it. What else is there to say? I am almost sixty years old, how can I still compete with a twenty-year-old junior?
For young people with a bright future like this, it is wisest to make good friends and leave some incestuous feelings, so he also gave Feng Ziying a generous gift when he got married.
"Thank you, Mr. Fu, for your thoughtfulness." Feng Ziying bowed her arms and thanked her solemnly. Zhu Zhiren stroked his beard with satisfaction, "Hey, why do you and I have to be so polite? Sit down, sit down!"
Feng Ziying also briefly talked about the situation in the capital city during this period, and inevitably also talked about the upcoming "Beijing inspection", "big plan" and the changes that may bring to the entire court situation.
“It is said that the DPRK and the Central Committee of the ‘Beijing Cha’ and ‘Daji’ have given clear instructions that those who are promoted must have actual performance, and the actual performance must be verified from several aspects,…”
Zhu Zhiren listened very carefully.
Local officials like him seem to be supreme in the government and have all the power. However, because he has been a local official for a long time, intelligence information is not smooth enough, and the news can only be conveyed through the correspondence of some township parties and the same year.
For example, when Feng Ziying returned to the capital city and caught up with the "Beijing Investigation" and "big plan", he must have got a lot of inside information, so of course Zhu Zhiren would not let it go.
Zhu Zhiren needs to compare the new policies of "Beijing Inspection" and "Big Plan" mentioned by Feng Ziying against his own work performance in the past two years to see what aspects he can make up for and improve in order to be more effective in the official department and the capital. When the procuratorate comes to inspect, I will be able to hand in a more beautiful answer sheet.
Hearing Feng Ziying’s introduction, Zhu Zhiren’s brows slowly relaxed.
Obviously, this new "big plan" policy is extremely beneficial to Yongping Mansion.
For example, among the listed items, one is to solve the problem of displacement caused by disasters.
Yongping Prefecture not only successfully resolved the refugees caused by the "military disaster" caused by the Mongolian invasion, but also assisted Shuntian Prefecture in solving the livelihood problems of nearly 100,000 refugees, which is undoubtedly a big plus.
Another example is the issue of tax revenue increase mentioned in the new policy.
Although Yongping Prefecture's summer and autumn taxes have not changed much, and have even declined due to the impact of the Mongolian invasion, the mining tax and commercial tax, which are required to be paid into the Ministry of Industry's Jieshen treasury, have increased significantly. This is unprecedented and far exceeds the decline in summer and autumn taxes, which is another huge plus point.
With these two aspects alone, Zhu Zhiren felt that he was fully qualified to obtain a good position, not counting the achievements in public security, the Qing army, and the successful defeat of the Mongolian invasion.
Calculating it this way, Zhu Zhiren feels more and more that his prospects are very bright.
However, Zhu Zhiren is very tolerant. If you want to achieve political achievements, you will inevitably have conflicts with the local gentry. This is to be expected.
And now Feng Ziying is using mining, building roads and building roads to attract businessmen from Shanxi and Shaanxi, creating a huge interest. This not only suppresses the local gentry and merchants, but also attracts a group of flexible gentry and merchants to start to move closer to him.
This is a good change. No one can refuse the benefits. If you want to join and get a share of the pie, you have to be submissive and obedient.
During this spring break, the number of local gentry and merchants coming to visit their families for New Year greetings has not decreased but increased compared with previous years. Moreover, many of them used to pay New Year greetings with no more than courtesy, but this year almost all the family heads came in person with gifts, and they also looked for opportunities to grow. After talking about it, Zhu Zhiren was deeply moved by this change.
On the one hand, I admire the shamelessness of these gentry and merchants, and on the other hand, I also have a new feeling for these guys' pursuit of interests. There is really no barrier to turning enemies into friends, shaking hands and talking happily under interests.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi have entered Yongping Prefecture more and more, their presence and influence have become stronger and stronger, and they have a tendency to occupy the magpie's nest and dominate the place.
Although Shanshan and Shaanxi merchants are now gradually at a disadvantage in the duel with Jiangnan merchants, their basic strength is not comparable to these local gentry and merchants. If these Shanshan and Shaanxi merchants are allowed to continue to grow, their real interests will be taken away by them. .
This is certainly unacceptable to the local gentry and merchants.
Since we can't win, we can only cooperate, and we must do so as soon as possible.
In fact, when Feng Ziying got married in the capital city, she also received some congratulatory gifts from the gentry of Yongping Prefecture.
Of course, Feng Ziying would not refuse these gentry who expressed their closeness to them. The gentry in Beizhili were also considered to be the basic base, especially those who had a deep connection with the Qi army and were able to win over and make friends. Feng Ziying did not hesitate to give some benefits.
Because of this, the relationship between Feng Ziying and the gentry in Yongping Mansion also improved rapidly after becoming famous in the Battle of Qian'an, and even improved by leaps and bounds during the spring break, especially in areas such as Qian'an, Funing, Lulong and Luanzhou. The attitude of the gentry in various states and counties was more positive.
For example, Changli and Leting maintained a state of neither salty nor light because Feng Ziying's work focus was mainly on the other four states and counties this year.
"Ziying, everything you brought back is good news." After listening to Feng Ziying's introduction, Zhu Zhiren was overjoyed, rubbing his hands with a smile on his face, "I know that you have contributed a lot to the success of Yongping Mansion. No, don’t worry, when people from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate come, I will tell you the truth about your achievements..."
Feng Ziying also laughed. Zhu Zhiren was afraid that he might leave before him, but he could only express his gratitude at this time.
After talking for a while, he quickly returned to the official business of Yongping Mansion. The problem of Huimin Salt Field was imminent. Originally, Zhu Zhiren had "voluntarily asked Ying" to handle the matter personally. He only needed Feng Ziying to help him contact Denglai Navy. , I didn’t expect that the situation had changed.
Recently, not only have Changli and Leting become more peaceful, but the key is that there is no trace of the Japanese pirates on Xiangyun Island and they have disappeared into the vast sea. This makes Zhu Zhiren anxious and embarrassed. He originally hoped to use this matter to make a real difference. His political achievements have been greatly enhanced, but he did not expect to encounter such a troublesome matter.
Fortunately, the news Feng Ziying brought back this time was very happy, which diluted Zhu Zhiren's sense of loss.
"Sir, since the Japanese pirates are temporarily missing, we don't have to force it for a while. What's more important for you now is to seek stability and survive the inspections of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Now there is no need for you to care about this city or place. I can just go to Beijing and take up my post with peace of mind."
Feng Ziying's relief made Zhu Zhiren even more grateful, but he didn't know Feng Ziying's inner thoughts.
In Feng Ziying's view, there is no need for Zhu Zhiren to earn this credit. Since Lian Guoshi is coming to Yongping Mansion soon, why not put it aside for a while, and wait until the time is right for Lian Guoshi to defeat these Japanese pirates in one fell swoop. Eradicate it, and also clean up the powerful and evil gentry in Changli and Leting?
This can kill two birds with one stone. It can not only help strengthen national affairs and establish prestige, but also eradicate Japanese pirates to please the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Huimin Salt Field is affiliated to the Changludu Salt Transport Department, and is under the dual management of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. As long as the Huimin Salt Field is restored, it will definitely make Minister Lian Guo look good.
Even Huang Ruliang and Zhang Jingqiu cannot bury this great contribution to practicing state affairs.
For Feng Ziying, within the next two months he needs to plan for the "post-Xiao Feng Xiu Zhuan era" of Yongping Mansion.
Although he left, he left a deep imprint of his own in Yongping Mansion this year. He did not want this imprint to be blurred or disappear when he left, so he strongly recommended people with the same concept and excellent personal friendship. Practice national affairs to take over your own class to ensure that your efforts do not go to waste halfway.
So in order to strengthen the voice and influence of practicing state affairs, necessary help and preparation are necessary.
Let’s make up for it first.
