Ming Zuo

Chapter 343 Thick-skinned

"Youwen, this place is difficult, you have to be mentally prepared. But I trust your talents, and you should be able to help the county magistrate to restore the people's livelihood here."

This time, to establish a new government framework in Mengyin County, Zuo Menggeng mobilized elite soldiers and generals.

One of the deputy magistrates is Qi Biaojia.

After Qi Biaojia followed Liu Zongzhou to Linqing, he entered the government affairs class.After graduating last month, I followed Chen Zhi for an internship.

Chen Zhi gave him a very high evaluation, saying that with his ability, it was no problem to control one state and one government.

Although Zuo Menggeng believed in Chen Zhi's vision, cultivating cadres naturally couldn't be done overnight, and had to start at the grassroots level.

This time, all things were left behind, Zuo Menggeng transferred Qi Biaojia.

His upcoming position is deputy county magistrate and director of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

In other words, the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau is his main post, and the deputy county magistrate is the concurrent post.

Qi Biaojia didn't feel any pain.

Coming to Mengyin to be the deputy county magistrate is tantamount to giving him a good start to his career.As long as the achievements are made, there is no need to worry about the future.

After reading the preliminary information in Mengyin, he gave his work direction.

"Participant, in the next month, I plan to visit the entire Mengyin territory. In any case, I must master all the household registration and population information, so that I can know how much capital I have."

This practical attitude made Zuo Menggeng very satisfied.

"It has been raining heavily for several days and the mountain road is difficult to travel. Be sure to pay attention to safety. I will dispatch a small team of troops to accompany you under your command."

The most difficult thing about Mengyin is the mountains.Except for the county seat, the rest of the villages are deep in the mountains, and even live a life of isolation.

If a place wants to develop, population is an important resource.

Only by counting the population well can we know how powerful we are, and we can also follow the population to grasp the local land, natural resources and other resources.

In addition to Qi Biaojia, there is another person who is also very eye-catching.

This man had a broken hand, but his eyes were like those of a wolf. No matter who he looked at, it made the other person feel timid.

"Wang Wei, do you have the confidence to be a good police chief?"

Different from his attitude towards Qi Biaojia, Zuo Menggeng's tone was much stronger when dealing with Wang Wei.

Because this is his soldier.

Wang Wei was originally a team leader in the rear camp. He was injured in the first battle at Qingshui Pass and his left hand was broken.

Because of this injury, I cannot continue to serve in the army.But Zuo Menggeng did not abandon the wounded, but taught them all kinds of knowledge as much as possible, hoping that they could shine in other places.

Wang Wei is thoughtful, calm, persevering when faced with difficulties, and is not afraid of authority.As long as it is what he thinks is right, even in the face of Zuo Menggeng, he will fight for it.

What Zuo Menggeng wanted was his strength, so this time he was transferred to Mengyin County to serve as deputy county magistrate and police chief.

Wang Wei always had a cold face, and asked, "When you take part in the seat, there must be some people who are criminals in a place where war is waiting. I plan to use my deadly hand to suppress it, is it okay?"

Zuo Menggeng said solemnly: "It is naturally right to use the heavy code in troubled times."

Wang Wei understood what he meant and went to think about how to carry out his work.

When he saw Zuo Xiang, Zuo Menggeng's brows could not help wrinkling.

"Why are you so fat?"

Back then, the Eight Heroes of the Zuo Clan followed him, mounted the horse to fight fiercely, dismounted to practice martial arts, and they were all very sturdy.

As a result, after a long time no see, Zuo Xiang actually made a circle.When he lowered his head, his chin was creased.

Zuo Xiang was also helpless.

"Sitting behind the table every day, it's either calculation or calculation, and it's like this before you know it."

Zuo Xiang is now the Minister of Finance of the New Army and controls the finances of the entire camp, so he is very busy.

His appearance is a typical example of the sequelae of the office in later generations.

Zuo Menggeng had nothing to do with this.

"The body is the capital of the revolution, so you must pay attention."

Zuo Xiang nodded and put down the big cake in his hand, as if he wanted to lose weight by eating less.

"Participant, this time I have transferred the most capable people to you. Lu Fuju, come here and let the participant take a good look."

Following his call, a neat young man ran over.

"Participating, I am Lv Fuju, the newly appointed deputy magistrate and director of the Finance Bureau and Taxation Bureau of Mengyin County."

Although Li Banghua guessed that Zuo Menggeng's deputy magistrate held six positions, he was referring to the six departments of the imperial court.But what he didn't know was that Zuo Menggeng detailed these six departments.

For example, the powerful and outrageous Ministry of Household, in Zuo Menggeng, was divided into three parts and became the Civil Affairs Bureau, the Finance Bureau and the Taxation Bureau.

It stands to reason that every bureau should have a director.But there are not many talents these days, and even fewer people who understand finance and accounting.

This Lu Fuju was still deducted from Zuo Xiang's hand.

When Zuo Menggeng was about to transfer someone, the boss of Zuo Xiang was unwilling, and he had a fight with him for a while.

In the end, his arm could not bend his thigh. Lu Fuju stepped down from the position of director of the audit department of the Ministry of Finance, and came to Mengyin County to serve as the deputy county magistrate and the two bureaus of the Finance Bureau and the Taxation Bureau.

Zuo Menggeng sat him down and asked, "You will be the God of Wealth of Mengyin County in the future. Look, everyone is staring at you. Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Lu Fuju was not at all stage frightened, and said a word on the spot.

"There's nothing to say. In the current situation in the county, it can only be exempted from taxation. We have to let the common people breathe, otherwise, they won't be able to survive."

Mengyin County has just experienced wars and is in turmoil. Even the feudal dynasties will implement tax-free policies under such circumstances.

Lu Fuju's actions were not unexpected.

Li Banghua asked a sharp question.

"If tax-free, where will the money for your reconstruction come from?"

Mengyin County must be rebuilt.

This is the camp's test field in the Yimeng Mountains.

In addition to being a secret base, it is also a template for exploring the economic development of the mountains.

Although it is far from taking over the world now, the big guy has already started to make various preparations.

If we can find out an effective development path in the Yimeng Mountains, then we will have experience to learn from in the management of so many mountainous areas in the country in the future.

Lv Fuju also had another advantage, which was also revealed at this time.

"Meng Angong doesn't know, since I came from the finance department, the Minister can still watch me suffer? I can't say, please help me."

Zuo Xiang's eyes widened.

"What do you want to do?"

Lu Fuju said as a matter of course: "Borrow money. If you don't have money, you won't be able to develop here, and if you don't develop, you will continue to be poor. Minister, you don't want to see your old subordinate achieve nothing, right?"

Zuo Xiang regretted this, his teeth were gritted in anger.

"Don't think about it. The finance department has all the money, and every cent must be spent on the edge."

Lu Fuju was entangled and would not let go.

"My Minister, I am also a blade here. Don't worry, I will calculate the interest for you. When the time comes, it will be doubled to you, and you still have to earn."

Seeing the two bargain, Zuo Menggeng, Li Banghua and others all laughed.

For this kind of situation, the big guy is still happy to see it.

With the six deputy magistrates in place, the Mengyin County Government was officially established.

This time, it was listed openly, and the whole county was notified.

The whole people of Mengyin County know that the official in charge of them now is not the county magistrate, but the county magistrate.

There is not only one county magistrate, but also six deputy magistrates.

This kind of thing really caused a lot of discussion.

But it's coming fast and going fast.

The people who are waiting to be fed are more concerned about how to survive.As for whether the official is called the magistrate or the magistrate, they don't care at all.

Only Gongdian and Gongsu were a little depressed.

The two of them helped a lot back and forth, but none of the six deputy magistrates were caught.

"It makes sense to forbid local officials. The formula is for the local clan. If you let your local officials become officials, how can the government control the local areas?"

Aware of their thoughts, Zuo Menggeng frankly confessed the key points.

Being an official in a different place is a personnel system that has been implemented since the Western Han Dynasty.Although it has never been explicitly stated, the meaning of it is known to everyone.

Only Zuo Menggeng was so frank, but he really eliminated the dissatisfaction of Gongdian and Gongsu.

"If the two of you want to become an official, I suggest you go to the government affairs class in Linqing to study for a while. After you master the methods and rules of doing things, I will arrange it for you."

If it is arranged again, it will definitely not be overcast.

Gongdian and Gongsu heard the words and gave up happily after smiling bitterly.

"The eldest brother and the second brother are all wandering outside, and there is no one in the house to preside over them. They can't serve in the seat. Please forgive me."

The ancient family is basically like this, there will be a clear division of labor between brothers.

Some are officials, some are in business, and some are in charge of portals.In short, one purpose is to maintain the interests of a family.

Gongdian and Gongsuhui refused, which was also expected by Zuo Menggeng.

"That's good. Although you can't be an official, you can still work in the government. With your experience, I believe it can be of great help."

Although officials need to implement the system of off-site officials, civil servants do not.

This cannot be avoided in future generations.

The Gong clan is also a member of the Mengyin clan, and many jobs in the future are inseparable from their help.So Zuo Menggeng released a little sweetness in time to keep Gongdian and Gongsu motivated.

Although they can't be officials at the level of county magistrate, deputy magistrate, and director, they can still thrive in the county government, civil affairs bureau, finance bureau and other departments.

Maybe they will become the prototype of the world's first civil servants.

Gongdian and Gongsu didn't know the meaning, but they were overjoyed when they heard that they could still enter the government.After thanking each other, I began to think about which department to go to.
