Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 497

After staying in Nanjing until the seventh day of the lunar new year, Chen Jinghe embarked on his journey from Beijing to the south and back to Guangdong.

It can be seen here that the official administration in Guangdong is very loose.

The annual leave of the imperial court is only fifteen days, that is, from the first day to the fifteenth day of the new year, and the sixteenth day is on duty. Chen Jinghe left Guangzhou and returned to Beijing as early as the 20th of the twelfth lunar month. Guangzhou.

The reason why this is possible is that firstly, there is no one to check the post, and secondly, the office of the Canton Stock Exchange is too idle, unlike other yamen where there are a lot of trivial matters all day long.

In addition, Jiang Zhengxun was covering for Chen Jinghe.

The latter was able to leisurely enjoy the month-long Spring Festival holiday.

As soon as the front foot returned to Guangzhou, Chen Jinghe got a good news on the back foot.

Jiang Zhengxun is going to be promoted!
"Before the incident of smuggling by a Guangdong firm, its shopkeeper Li Tiancheng was convicted and beheaded, and his position was vacated."

Jiang Zhengxun had a happy face, and said to Chen Jinghe: "One radish and one hole, this seat is vacant, we are the only ones who are engaged in economics in Guangzhou City, and the chief envoy Si Yamen picks and chooses, and slips me over without any hassle. "

The Guangdong firm is government-run, and the shopkeeper is the fourth grade of Zheng'er Bajing, and Jiang Zhengxun, the director of the Stock Supervision Bureau, is just transferred from the fourth grade. This step has just been promoted to one level.

Chen Jinghe congratulated Jiang Zhengxun.

"The promotion and transfer in our field is very simple, and there are only a few positions going back and forth."

The latter popularized some basic political knowledge to Chen Jinghe: "The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Bureau is the largest, with a Zhengsanpin structure, and the two Zhengsanpin yamen under its jurisdiction are Guangdong Firm and Guangdong Bank.

I have been the shopkeeper of a Guangdong firm this time. If I want to move again in the future, I will either be promoted to the deputy of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, or I will be promoted to the Bank of Guangdong. There is no chance in this life. "

"How to say?"

"From the second-rank officials, the appointment right is in Nanjing. Besides, how many second-rank positions can there be in Guangdong, one is the prefect of Guangzhou, one is the deputy chief minister of Guangdong, and there is no place for the others."

Jiang Zhengxun said: "So within this range, it is relatively easy to get promoted in the early stage, but it is basically unrealistic to want to be promoted later, unless there are people in Nanjing, we will be transferred from Guangdong and go directly to Beijing.

Let’s just talk about me, now I’m going to pick up the Guangdong firm, and the position of the stock market supervision bureau has been vacated. You are ready to take over at any time. "

Chen Jinghe said in disbelief: "Don't make fun of me, I haven't been here for a year yet, how could it be my turn to take this step."

"Don't believe me?" Jiang Zhengxun laughed: "You have a good relationship with Chen Jiading, right? He's working hard for you, so who can compete with you in Guangzhou City?"

"Although you are young, officialdom only talks about three points: background, qualifications, and ability. As for you, you need background, qualifications, background, and ability. You still need background, and that's enough."

Chen Jinghe blushed immediately, and said embarrassingly: "Jiang Ju, what you said to me is almost worthless."

"In Guangdong, the background is more important than everything else." Jiang Zhengxun said quite naturally: "For thousands of years, the aristocratic clans have controlled the land of Guangdong, and since the "Lv's Township Agreement", everything in Guangdong has been like this. The sons and grandsons who came out of the village, no matter how poor their abilities are, can get official status from the court, and the so-called imperial examinations are nothing more than a formality.

Just say now, in the local counties and townships, which county magistrate or lizheng is not from a big family, if he is not, he will not be able to do well at all, and he will not be able to control the local people.

This is dictated by people's sentiments, something that cannot be changed for a while.

The Department of Shipping and the Port Authority, these two key yamen, you can see when your Chen family let go or let outsiders intervene, even the feudal lords must acquiesce to this, and maintain a relative balance and tacit understanding with the Chen family.

Politics is the art of balance, so it is inevitable for you to take over my class. It is better for you to be in the Stock Regulatory Bureau than to be transferred out to be a county magistrate or prefect. "

At the end of the conversation, Chen Jinghe felt a little aggrieved in addition to embarrassment.

Of course he understood what Jiang Zhengxun meant.

Chen Jinghe is now recognized as a troublemaker in Guangzhou.

A member of the stock market supervision bureau is only from the fourth grade, it doesn't matter if you give up the little sweetness to Chen Jinghe.

Of course, this was not given to Chen Jinghe but to the Chen family.

"You have reached the fourth grade at such a young age, and you have given the Chen family enough face. Within three to five years, I don't think you will move again, so you can work with peace of mind."

Jiang Zhengxun patted his ass and left, and the development of the matter was exactly as the former expected.

Just half a month later, the appointment document of the Chief Envoy of Guangdong came to Chen Jinghe. Chen Jinghe resigned from the account of the Canton Stock Exchange and officially became the second director of the Guangdong Stock Regulatory Bureau.

This time, the merchants from various countries who were eager to get close to Chen Jinghe became more attentive.

After all, the power gap between the number one leader and the number two leader is not a star.

What Chen Jinghe didn't expect was that the first person to ask him to do something was not an outsider, but his own sister Chen Yaxi.

"What do you mean, that Cosimo wants to do business?"

At his own home, Chen Jinghe looked at his younger sister and asked in surprise, "Isn't he still studying at Tianfu Academy?"

"Whoever stipulates that going to school can't do business."

"Too."

Chen Jinghe nodded: "What business is he going to do?"

"Bank." Chen Yaxi said: "This guy said that he was born as a banker, and his ancestors have worked in banks for three generations, and his grandfather also helped a Pope there manage their finances for many years.

So Xiaomei wanted to open a bank in Guangzhou, called Medici Bank. "

Xiaomei
Chen Jinghe was blushed by this title, pointed at Chen Yaxi and smiled wryly, "I'm a gentleman, why did you give him such a nickname."

"Who made him look like a big girl."

Chen Yaxi pursed her lips and said, "No, his face is whiter than a woman's, and he doesn't know what kind of rouge he used."

"That's the skin color of others. They are all so white."

Chen Jinghe explained, and then asked vigilantly, "Why are you so eager to take care of that Florentine? What kind of Medici Bank is this? You don't have a stake in it, do you?"

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

Chen Yaxi subconsciously refuted it, but facing her brother's questioning eyes, she could only say weakly: "A little bit, I put the dowry money in."

Well, no wonder.

Chen Jinghe sighed.

"Tell me, how can I help you as a brother."

"I know my brother is the best." Chen Yaxi said with a smile: "Brother, a bank is different from a firm, and it is very troublesome to get listed on the Canton Stock Exchange. Please help him to enter the Canton Stock Exchange smoothly."

Does this count as going through the back door? Of course it does.

Chen Jinghe frowned, he didn't expect that his ambition to be an 'upright official' would be shattered so quickly.

But facing Chen Yaxi, Chen Jinghe had nothing to do.

"All right, you ask him to bring me the things that should be prepared tomorrow. If there is no problem, I will handle it."

"Thank you bro!"

Chen Yaxi was overjoyed, she got up and pretended to be blessed.

"Oh no, it should be thanking the eldest brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Come on, you, go home."

Chen Jinghe drove away Chen Yaxi with his hand, and Cosimo's face flashed across his mind, and he shouted.

"You girl, don't be obsessed with sex."

Chen Yaxi, who was walking out, turned her head angrily and shouted.

"roll!"
