Lay to win!Cannon fodder, he has become the chief assistant

Chapter 211 It's better to be an official

It is not new for Xie Xiuwen's eldest son to be a scholar.

Xie Xiuwen also had no intention of concealing that the eldest son was adopted. He only said to the outside world that Xie Ronghui and his biological father's fate were incompatible, so he adopted him as his uncle. This is still a family, but it is also a joy for both sides.

Although Xie Ronghui came through adoption, he took up a long word, and now he has won the title of scholar, and after studying hard for a few years, he must be in the hope of winning, so where Xie Ronghui shows up, these elders or young masters are all kind to him color.

Xie Xiuwen has been in this position for three years. He himself is not in a hurry, but his opponent is.

Last year, Xie Xiuwen was sent to Tai'an Mansion to investigate the case of official corruption. It can be said that many Beijing officials were implicated.

Moreover, Xie Xiuwen and Zhao Yue went together for that business trip. The two stayed in Tai'an Mansion for nearly five months before they were able to turn around.

At that time, everyone thought that Xie Xiuwen was going to be promoted again, but they didn't expect that His Majesty just rewarded him with a lot of things and didn't mention his promotion. This finally made the officials of the Ministry of Officials breathe a sigh of relief.

Xie Xiuwen is now enjoying a regular fifth-rank salary, with a monthly salary of [-] qian and an annual salary of [-] shi.

It sounds like a month's salary is not much, and the synthetic silver is less than six taels of silver, but in fact, it is far more than this amount, because the court will have different subsidies every quarter, and the errands are well done. Yes, if Shangguan reports it, there will be another reward.

This monthly silver also has another income, called monthly miscellaneous, which is the miscellaneous things that the imperial court specially distributes to officials.

The reason why it is called Yueza is that this thing is indeed quite messy, but if you don’t know what to post, or if there are too many things on it, then start posting to officials.Including but not limited to: mutton, fish, vegetables, fruits, salt, wine, sauce, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, etc.

To put it bluntly, the basic life of officials and the needs of the government are all provided by the court.

Of course, sometimes these messy things are not issued, and money is directly changed. Generally speaking, the monthly miscellaneous amount of a fifth-rank official is about [-] yuan.

In fact, Xie Xiuwen didn't have any objections whether it was sending things or money, they were pretty much the same anyway, if you sent things, it would save you from going out to buy them.

In addition, what is really valuable is the job field given by the imperial court.

Job land is the land granted to officials by the imperial court. Xie Xiuwen has [-] mu of job land.

These can be grown by oneself, or leased to others, and the income belongs to oneself without any tax.

Because there is a lot of idle farmland in the local area, there are more capital officials in Lumi than local officials of the same level, and there are more job fields than local officials of the same level, but basically they are not good fields. Maybe this is why many people are willing to do it. The reason why a low-quality Beijing official is unwilling to be a local official.

There are regulations on job fields, and once an official is removed from office or returns to his hometown, this part of the field will be taken back. The imperial court will immediately hand over and return it to the imperial court regardless of whether there is food growing on the ground.

If Xie Xiuwen is only a fifth-rank local official, then the job land he can be allocated will not exceed 150 acres. It is estimated that the output is not as much as the [-] acres in the capital, and the monthly miscellaneous item is basically There is nothing to get, Lu Mi estimates that it is around [-] shi.

In fact, frankly speaking, even if Xie Xiuwen stopped buying land and Liu Ruolan stopped doing business, their family could live well off just with these salaries and rewards from the imperial court.

After all, except for the share of the [-] mu of land, he can directly exchange it for money, and his family can't finish the [-] shi of Lumi from the imperial court.

Two hundred shilumi, that is more than 2 catties of grain, a person can eat at most 200 catties a month, and only more than [-] catties a year.

After Xie Ronghui came to Beijing, Xie Xiuwen took him to two banquets, and then let him study in his yard first, and personally assigned his homework every day.

"Your article is still immature, and you still have less knowledge. I brought you back to Beijing. I am not in a hurry to let you study in the academy, but I want to broaden your horizons. You have also studied in Mingshan Academy. How can your level be ranked in the academy?"

Xie Ronghui said with shame on his face: "My son is incompetent, he must belong to the bottom class."

Xie Xiuwen is still very satisfied with his self-knowledge.

He was not afraid that the eldest son was stupid, but that he was hopelessly stupid.

Fortunately, there is still room for treatment.

"I have a villa in Feng County, which is under the jurisdiction of the capital city. The County Magistrate Chen of Feng County and I have some kind of sympathy. I intend to send you to study with him for a while. Are you willing?"

Xie Ronghui naturally understood that this was a good opportunity to learn, where did ordinary people get such an opportunity?
"But it's up to the father to decide."

Xie Xiuwen nodded, and said again: "Magistrate Chen is an honest and hard-working official. When you follow him, you must not only figure out how he is an official, but also pay attention to how the sixth office of the county government works, especially when it involves When dealing with the people, don't be careless, you must read more, listen more and learn more."

"Yes, father, son, remember."

After Xie Xiuwen talked to him a few more words, he thought of the children in the villa.

"After you arrived in Feng County, every holiday, you would go back to the villa to stay for one night. By the way, I would teach your younger brothers about their homework. You are their eldest brother, so you must set an example and never allow them to be lazy. "

"Yes, father."

Xie Ronghui felt that I really had to shoulder this heavy burden, and he was full of energy all of a sudden.

When Xie Rongzhao learned that his elder brother was going to Fuyuan Villa, he couldn't sit still, and wanted to go together, but was rejected by Xie Xiuwen.

"Father, I'm almost bored to death. You said it last month. If I can master that piece of "Landscape Music", you will grant me a wish."

Xie Xiuwen got a headache from being pestered by her.

This daughter is good at everything, but her temper is a bit wild. He is really afraid that one day Cheng Saburo will no longer want this fiancée, so who can he ask for reasoning!
Of course, most of the time, Xie Xiuwen still felt that his little boy was good everywhere, and no one was good enough for his little boy.

"You, how old are you, and you always want to run away? Your elder brother and younger brother are studying hard there. After you go, I'm afraid you will take them all over the mountain again. You came here on purpose. Am I right?"

Xie Rongzhao was not afraid of his stern face, so he went over and started shaking his arm.

"Father, my daughter really wants to go to the mountain village. My daughter wants to eat dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse. Just let me go."

Xie Xiuwen laughed and said, "We won't be able to eat it in our house? Didn't the Zhuangzi outside the city send all kinds of wild vegetables?"

"That's different! Daddy should accept his daughter. At most, I promise you that I won't stay too long."

Xie Xiuwen sneered and turned his head, "Do you believe this?"
