The Little First Grand Secretary in My House - Chapter 246
After listening to Xue Tingyan’s explanation, Chen Jian was so sweaty that he couldn’t calm down for a long time.
Was shocked.
Unexpectedly, in this prosperous world where the song and dance rose, there was such a big crisis that he had no awareness of.
At the same time, he was too disturbed. He and Xue Tingyan had been in contact for many years to understand his character. His character is either not to say or not to do, and since he said it, he must do it.
But once done, it is against the entire Shilin.
This is the most powerful group of people in the world except the emperor, representing all the readers in the world.
Everything is inferior, only reading is high.
Why? it goes without saying.
“Do you really think about it?”
Xue Tingyan slightly said: “Even if I don’t raise it, Your Majesty will do it, but sooner or later. This matter is not too late, I am destined to ask the outer sea to find a new continent suitable for growing grain, but this kind of thing cannot be done overnight.”
“Know that all people from all dynasties and generations, but everyone who implements the New Deal …”
“What is it?” Xue Tingyan looked at Chen Jian and suddenly smiled: “No dead body, infamous, thousands of people refer to it, people die and die, and smell for thousands of years?”
He suddenly sighed and said, “A Jian, to tell you the truth, I am actually hesitant, otherwise I won’t mention it to you today.”
“Did you mention it with the teacher? It’s better to ask the teacher and brainstorm to see if you can find the law of the two perfections.” Chen Jian was also a little confused, and only said so.
Xue Tingyan knew that he shook his head slightly: “Don’t forget the people behind the teacher.”
He is from Beilu Academy.
It was known that Beilu Academy seated nearly half of the land in Futian Township, and the students in the Academy benefited a lot from this, and Xue Tingyan and others did not take it for granted. At this time, I want to come. There are many fields in Beilu Academy, and the fields of the people living nearby will naturally decrease, so the wool is on the sheep, and the people who suffer are still the people below.
“Ting Yan, you still have to slow down, let me think about it.” Chen Jian said.
“A Jian, in fact, I told you this thing today, I didn’t want you to do anything, just …” Xue Tingyan smiled bitterly and said, “It seems that I was wrong, I shouldn’t have said this to you, but I messed you up. Mind. “
“Why did you say so, did you not treat me as a friend, or …” Chen Jian was annoyed.
Xue Tingyan hurriedly said: “Stop and stop, you see, I’m not treating you as a friend, it’s just that this thing is destined to be an enemy of millions of people, and I shouldn’t be involved in you. It’s enough for me to do this alone. It does n’t need you to blend in. “
“I admit that I was a little scared, but my fear is not because of myself, I am afraid of you …”
“Okay, Ajian.” Xue Tingyan stepped forward and patted his shoulder: “I understand what you mean, and I understand that you are worried about me.”
He came to the window and looked out: “Just after I hit the Deng Wen drum, I couldn’t help myself. In fact, I am not a saint, I will also seek for myself, and seek benefits and avoid harm. Including my The idea is not so firm, but there is always a voice telling me-give it a try, maybe?
There was silence in the study, and Chen Jian looked at Xue Tingyan standing in front of the window.
The two intersect in the wild, with the same classmates and classmates, they should have the same subject, but the destiny of Ting Yan is always uneven, so he eventually missed it.
All along, Chen Jian has never regarded himself as the real champion. Every time someone mentions Chen champion, his heart will always say that if that person comes, the champion will not be Chen Huanzhi, but Xue Tingyan.
It was precisely this time that they missed, and the two embarked on a completely different path.
Today, the path he is taking is the one that the champion should really take. Glory, stability, dignity, and decentness, not like the court, every time you climb up, you must fight with the heavens and the earth and the people.
Occasionally outside, I heard someone say that Xue Tingyan is not just a new year, what happens.
He is always particularly excited.
Because only he knows what way Ting Yan has gone.
Alone, vomiting painstakingly, spitting liver and gallbladder.
Maybe one more one will be added afterwards.
“Is it worth it?” In silence, he heard his trembling voice.
Although Chen Jian has been unknown in recent years, he has been watching, knowing the reason why Xue Tingyan was recalled from Guangzhou. This is the greatest sorrow of being a courtier, either drifting with the waves, or setting aside new ideas, but at the same time being afraid of violating the emperor’s taboo.
Xue Tingyan raised his eyebrows and shook his head: “I don’t know. But I know that it’s worth it. It’s not what other people say, but it’s up to you.”
Suddenly, he laughed aloud: “Well, this topic is too heavy, and I am not going to do it now. Let’s say something else. Maybe my thoughts changed, and my mind changed?”
“Good.” In fact, Chen Jian’s mood is quite complicated now.
Until the afternoon, Xue Tingyan took his wife and daughter back to the house.
On the way, Zhaoer told him about Chen Jian’s family affairs.
Xue Tingyan sighed: “It seems that every family has a hard time, and Ajian’s life is not easy.”
“I also blame you for having too few salaries. Look at you. For example, you are a high-ranking official in the second grade, and the salaries in a month are no more than one hundred and fifty-two. These silvers are for ordinary people, so they can naturally live up Half a year later, it can be given to us.
“Look at our family’s servants, carts and horses, human connections, as well as the children’s expenses and your and my expenses, how much money is there for a month. Not to mention Ajian now, he Speaking of nobleness in this official position, it is really clear and expensive, but a month’s salary is only fifty-two salaries. There is always a delay in the household department, and everything must be covered by the wife with a dowry. “
Seeing Zhao’er said righteously and filled with indignation, Xue Tingyan was a little embarrassed: “Wouldn’t you just say this when you were with Xu?”
Zhaoer glanced at him: “Why? Can’t I say this yet?”
He touched his nose: “It’s not, it’s just that you two women are sitting together and arranging their husbands. Isn’t it something that violates women’s ways?”
“Is this a violation of the woman’s way?” Zhaoer raised her eyebrows.
Xue Tingyan hurriedly begged for mercy and filled with righteous indignation: “Well, it’s all of us lords who don’t use it, and we have to let his wife keep it. It’s also an upright official. The court only issued us the idea of salaries, and always owed money. Living together has caused us to be teased by our wife, Fu Gang is weak, the world is in the wind, the hearts of people … “
“Oh, you’re enough, and the more you talk, the less interesting you are.” Zhao’er dismissed him.
Xue Tingyan also laughed and smiled, remembering Zhao’er said that he owed salaries to him.
In fact, he really knows this and knows a lot. In the past, government officials were in arrears because the household had no money, but now the household has money, but it is still delayed, but there are too many officials in Jingli, and the household is too busy, which is dominated by bad habits and inertia.
It’s useless to think about the matter for a while now, but it’s better to start from the corner. Maybe if you walk against the water, it will become a trend. Xue Tingyan rubbed his chin and thought.
The arrears of salaries are different from others. They are under the control of households, so they can be done if they want to.
When Xue Tingyan went down and asked about it, he discovered that there were too many disadvantages.
Dachang followed the old system of the former dynasty, as did officials’ salaries.
Official salaries can be issued annually, seasonally, silver or rice. It depends on what is most in the household when the pension is issued. In addition to silver rice, silk cloth has been issued, but this is very rare, and it happened before the opening of the Fu, and the court did not have silver, it would be filled with silk cloth. Most of the time is silver. Meter.
All in all, it is quite confusing.
It happened that this time when the first season of Lumi was released, Xue Tingming simply changed the regulations.
Official salaries are no longer issued from Guangyingku, but a new salary company has been formed.
The official in this salary department was temporarily drawn from other parts of the household, and was officially put on the table after the court issued an order.
Once the matter was issued, it caused a lot of discussion.
Some small officials in Beijing went to Guangyingku to lead Lumi, but were told that they would not be issued by Guangyingku now, but from the salary department. And now they can’t get it. They can only get the salaries after they have issued the documents.
For a time, the complaint stated that the government’s malpractices were always in arrears of salaries and were criticized and criticized again.
But they are all low-level officials. Even if they are dissatisfied, they are not useful for discussion.
As for the household department, let alone mention it.
The following officials are all talking about it. The new official took three fires and originally intended to burn it here. Usually I am busy enough, and I have nothing to do with finding things. This is not an obvious toss.
In addition, it was Guangyingku and some individual individuals. After this order was issued, how many people sat up and ran privately.
Peng Junyi hadn’t shown up all the time. Seeing the following trouble, it was inevitable to find Xue Tingyan and say one or two.
“Xue Shilang’s days at Hubu are not short, we should know that we have a lot of people here. This time, regarding the distribution of salaries, you should temporarily change the regulations, and you should also discuss with the ministers. See what is happening now. This officer wanted to speak for you one or two, but I did n’t know where to start because I did n’t know what was going on. “
In fact, the meaning of Peng Junyi’s words is very clear, is to blame Xue Tingyan did not say hello to him in advance.
It’s just that the two of them have the same rank. Although Peng Junyi is on the left, and the position is a little higher than that of the right assistant, Xue Tingyan is the person that Jiacheng Emperor likes, and naturally can’t tell the difference.
After hearing this, Xue Ting was surprised for a moment, and apologized: “I saw that Mr. Peng was busy on official business, and I thought this matter was not a big deal, but it was because the official saw Guangyingku’s one and two things. Business matters. “
“Because they serve as officials in the court, they don’t have too much burden. As long as they can’t move, they will be miserable. It’s better not to be an official.”
Xue Tingyan said with a smile: “Master Peng said very much, but as a sir, how can I turn a blind eye to the things of his subordinates. I have visited the Guangyingku, and they are both in charge of storage and accounting. There are both rice and silver in the distribution of salaries, and there are too many trivial things to avoid some omissions.
“Like when I went that day, I met an official who complained that the Lumi issued by the household ministry was too bad. Because of the heavy workload, Guangyingku was stopped and a salary distribution company was formed instead. “
“So there is such a thing?” Peng Junyi wondered with a beard.
“No, this officer is also quite surprised. But think about it, whoever eats the bear heart leopard gall, will dare to take the Beijing official’s salute, but the left is too heavy for the Guangyingku, and there is something wrong in the middle. “
Not to mention, there are really people who eat bear heart leopard galls, not one or two.
Although the capital is the root of the imperial city, not every official in the capital can see His Majesty and the court official in charge. Moreover, this thing, Mi, was escorted to Beijing after a long journey, and it would appear broken due to external forces. This is normal.
Broken can be external force, which is mixed with gravel, or it can be said that the people pay the food really carelessly. Are you an official still able to go to the place, and compare with a flat-headed common people, or even the bureaucracy under the control of grain collection?
It is generally considered bad luck.
Over time, all officials knew that the Lumi issued could not be eaten, nor could it be sold for money.
However, this involves the distribution of pensions, and how the official salaries are issued by the Ministry of Household Affairs. There are rice and rice, but no rice is converted into silver, but when the silver is converted, it is less and the rice is more.
Without him, it is because rice grain is the easiest to handle.
Broken rice and even rice mixed with gravel are much cheaper than first-class grain. The household department pays the salaries to the officials according to the first-class grain, and the conversion is also calculated according to the price of the first-class grain. But the problem is that the household department has such an algorithm, and the rice distributed can’t be sold for the price of first-class food.
What is the difference? Naturally, it was filled with those silverfish.
That’s why every time when the salaries are distributed, everyone is happy when they hear that they are converted into silver. When they hear about the fat, they all beat eggplant like frost.
These are all choosing their salaries. The salaries of the officials of Dachang follow the Ming system, which is already meager. Such a gouging method can’t survive.
Xue Tingyan’s remarks made Peng Junyi unable to take it. Could it be that the Hube was so brave that he would dare to take the official salute?
Isn’t it a children’s play? In fact, most people in the household are aware of it.
Snakes have snake paths, shrimps have shrimp paths, and they all go their own way, but they all go the same way.
It depends on how he offended a person in the ministry and how he will do things in the future.
Peng Junyi smiled and said with a smile: “Xue Da is very attentive to his subordinates.
“Master Peng is busy all day long, and it’s normal to see this kind of minutiae. When I first arrived, I wasn’t too familiar with the affairs in the ministry.
After greeting each other, Peng Junyi left.
This season’s salary was originally due in March, but it was delayed in April.
Now the regulations have been temporarily changed, and then dragged from April to May.
Just as the following sentiment was inspiring, even when the Jiacheng Emperor in the palace heard about it, the Hubu finally issued the document and began to issue salaries on the tenth day of May.
Only five days, it still expires, which surprised many people. As a result, even those high-ranking officials who do not care about these three melons and two dates can’t help but confess to their family members.
On the same day, two long dragons lined up on the back gate of Hubu.
The ranks included low-rank officials wearing official robes, as well as servants dressed as homemakers. Because I don’t know whether this is the payment of salaries, whether it is to send rice or silver, they all have cloth bags in their hands.
Not far from here, there was also a group of people, dressed as businessmen, surrounded by several coolies, and a trailer next to them. Maybe others do not understand what these people are doing, but some low-ranking officials know it.
Some officials took Lumi, and if they did n’t eat or use it at home, they sold it to these people. The price is low, so seeing these people, some low-ranking officials are quite disgusted. But I also know that there are people behind these people, but they dare to speak out.
The line seems to be quite long, but in fact it moves very fast. From time to time, someone squeezed out from the front, holding two pieces of paper in his hand, looking stunned.
These were the ones who came to the front to get the salaries. Most of the borders were not so good, waiting for the rice to be cooked. So the Ministry said that the salaries were paid today, and some people came at night just to stay ahead.
“Brother Li, what’s wrong with this? Why didn’t you see the rice or the silver, but sent two pieces of paper?”
Some of the people behind came to know the officials who had received the pension and were stunned when they saw the other party.
But this brother Li did not answer, only to get out of the team and get closer.
I saw one of the pieces of paper with the name and official title of Brother Li on it, followed by two lines. There are categories on these two lines of characters, one line with salaries, one line with small characters, one line with grace, and one line with small characters.
This person is literate naturally and sees exactly what the two lines of small characters say.
One is written thirty-two, and one is written three-two.
According to the usual practice, they received the first season’s salary, that is to say three months’ salary. This brother Li is an eighth-ranking official. His monthly salary is twelve or two, three months is thirty-two.
The number is correct, what are the following twos?
The brother Li said: “The Ministry of Household said that in the future, the officials’ salaries will be converted into silver, which will be issued regularly, and the first five days of the next month can come to receive the receipt.”
Hearing this, the man laughed immediately.
“This is a good thing. Folding silver is better than sending rice.”
“The Hube also said that His Majesty felt the hard work of the officials, so this season everyone has another reward according to grade.”
“This is also a good thing.”
“It’s just that there is no money. Everyone issued a meeting ticket and said that they can go to the Tailong ticket number to get the money.”
