The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

"People from Shanda, the government office has always taken care of the state and county offices. The finance under its jurisdiction is difficult, so it has to allocate funds for relief. Only after the taxes are paid every quarter, the accounting office has enough money, but after all the arrangements, it is still stretched." The clerk was busy explaining.

The clerks in the other five rooms also quickly echoed: "But it is for this reason, my lord, Shou'an City is not richer than in the south. It is true that the land here is fertile, but because it is adjacent to Ajong and Nuerhan, whenever the crops are harvested, Some prefectures and counties were invaded, causing grain production to be affected. In order to ensure that there is no delay in paying grain taxes to the court, our government office must help them make adjustments."

"Sir, it's cold here all year round, and the crops that can be planted are relatively limited. And because of the favorable location, even caravans don't like to pass by here. If it weren't for the abundance of lake salt and horses, we would probably be worse than those in the northwest. You are still poor!"

"..."

These people spoke sincerely, as if they were truly public-spirited.

Unfortunately, Sheng Yuan didn't believe a word of it.

However, Shengyuan didn't plan to rectify the government office right now, so he didn't expose it and just watched them quietly singing and playing, just like watching a show.

It wasn't until they couldn't talk anymore and each one of them shut up angrily that she pretended to be impatient and threw the booklet in her hand to the corner of the desk.

"How much silver does the government office need in one quarter? How many houses are there?" Sheng Yuan lazily inspected everyone, "I didn't care how Shou'an City operated before, but now the master of the government office has returned to the throne. If you become an official, the operation of the government office must abide by the rules of the official!
I hate trouble the most. Since you have become the auxiliary officers of Fucheng, you should share my worries. "

When the officials saw the unkind look of those who came from Shengyuan, they thought she was going to attack on the spot, but they didn't expect that in the end, she actually wanted to reuse them? !

Thinking of this, the eyes of these officials started to roll, and their previously bent waists straightened a little unconsciously.

Sheng Yuan just pretended not to see their changes and ordered: "The official office has always been in charge of officials and rules. The head of your house must summarize the previous rules and regulations. After I review them, I will make adjustments. At that time, your room must do a good job in connection work. If there is any excuse, I will have my own explanation.

Since the household office is responsible for the government's finances, taxation, grain, and salt affairs, the revenue and expenditure accounts must be kept in a book. The chief remembers to clearly list the budget for the quarter and the fiscal year... Remember, the official's government office Don't raise useless people.

As for the ceremonial room, the director will focus entirely on academic affairs for the time being. Not only must he sort out Shou'an City's past scientific examination results, but also list the number of current children, scholars, and candidates, as well as relevant plans to improve the teaching level of official schools and the number of people who have passed the imperial examinations. ...Although these tasks are tedious, I don’t want to wait for long, and I hope that the hostess of Lai Li House will not disappoint me.

There are also two directors of the military and prison houses. Between the two of you, one is responsible for making corresponding defense plans based on emergencies that the city may encounter, and the other is responsible for classifying and summarizing the prison cases in the past 20 years. After I have sorted out the affairs, we will Talk to you.

Well, there are also workshops. I want you to repair and strengthen the city walls of Fucheng within this month. The specific specifications are calculated based on the safety standards required for the defense of Fucheng during war. "

The character of Sheng Yuan entered the room very quickly, and after giving the normal instructions, Tongzhi and Tongpan had veins jumping on their foreheads.

Good guy, if you don’t know, you’d think that the newly appointed governor already has the government in his hands!

He Tongzhi felt more confident when he saw that Sheng Yuan did not name him and Yan Tongpan for a long time, but instead grabbed the head of the six houses without a national establishment. This showed that he was somewhat bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. "Mr. Shanda, your term of office is approaching. The government is currently in financial difficulty. It's still early to collect taxes for the next season. If there is no money, how will the government operate?" He put on a worried look, as if the government was about to collect taxes. It's generally closed.

Sheng Yuan was surprised when he heard this: "How did the government office operate when I didn't come?"

He Tongzhi didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Sheng Yuan's words, and kept complaining: "The salaries of the staff in the sixth room of the third shift this month have not been paid yet. Originally, the government office had warehouses and warehouses besides the sixth room.

This warehouse is responsible for managing and storing grain, while the warehouse is responsible for managing silver and money.

Because the city's finances were often in short supply, the government abolished the subordinate staff of these two houses and assigned their functions and responsibilities to the household houses.

The government office was originally supposed to serve a hundred people, but in order to save money, it could only reduce the salary by [-]%. That's it. They still owe the salary for this month and next month on credit. When the finance is rich next quarter, they can make up for it together. "

Sheng Yuan listened patiently to his complaints for a long time. It wasn't until the other party finished speaking the last word that she said straightforwardly: "Since the situation you mentioned has existed for a long time, let's just follow the old rules for the time being! Since it has always been so difficult. They came over, and the government office has not closed down, so this method can still be used. Anyway, I don’t have the ability to conjure up enough silver to support the government’s operations, so I’ll just make do with it for the time being!”

"!!!" He Tongzhi almost choked when he heard this.

Good guy, Xinfu Yin really doesn’t care about face!
Look what she said!

No one who wants face can just cry out for poverty like this!

It would be fine if the Fu Yin was really strapped for money, but since she entered the city, whether it was rebuilding the back house of the government office or paying for her food and clothing, the expenses required were enough to support the government office's operations for a quarter!
The more he thought about it, the more unfair He Tongzhi became. Seeing that his reason was about to burst, the words of Fu Yin Shengyuan suddenly came to his ears: "I remember that the number of auxiliary officials in the prefecture is uncertain. Some prefectures do not have Tongzhi and Tongpan. I don’t know how they operate. Oh, by the way, there are only two colleagues in Shouning City next door, right? Huh? How many colleagues in our Shouning City are He Tongpan?"

"..." He Tongzhi's shaky sanity stabilized instantly, and the words that he almost blurted out just now retreated back in an orderly and quiet way.

Even though he is well-informed, he has never seen any governor blatantly threaten the magistrates and magistrates in front of the government officials!

As a superior, don't you need to maintain your image in front of your subordinates?
Sure enough, Shangguan is not scary, but he is afraid that Shangguan will be so rogue!
At this moment, even if He Tongzhi and others were extremely dissatisfied, they did not dare to entertain the idea of ​​non-violent non-cooperation for the time being.

After all, judging from the behavior of the new governor, it is very likely that they had just laid down on their front legs, and she was moving up and down the governor's office with her back legs!

Thinking of the group of people who were busy demolishing and building the back house of the inner government at this moment, He Tongzhi and others showed a look of vigilance on their faces.
