Although there are only five masters, there are already sixteen retainers. Each retainer is in charge of a stall. In total, there are at least nearly ten thousand people relying on the Yun family for their meals.
It is not easy to sort out such a large family business in a short period of time.
When Yunchu returned home this time, he listened to the reports of the nine retainers at home and arranged what the Yun family should do next and the main direction of development. Not to mention the complicated things, some things were extremely annoying.
For example, Yao Chong is presiding over the development of the Yellow River Ring Line.
It was impossible for the Tang Dynasty to develop these remote places without the support of force. After all, God knows that there was a group of people living in that inlet of the Yellow River who did not know that the Sui Dynasty was destroyed and replaced by the Tang Dynasty.
In order to support Yao Chong's work, more than 50% of Yun's armed forces were sent to the Yellow River.
Therefore, it was only on the eighth day after Yunchu returned to Chang'an that he officially took office.
Liu Rengui, the original Liu Bei of Chang'an, went to Luoyang to become prime minister, and there were only seventeen deputy Liu Rengui left in the Yamen of Chang'an, five of whom were Prince Li.
The prince who can really take charge of things is Yong Wangxian.
Li Xian, who has figured out the true nature of things, is no longer the hateful person he used to be. He has found his position very accurately, and that is education.
He is still the Imperial Academy of the Tang Dynasty and is in charge of all government schools in Chang'an.
There are now 127 government schools in Chang'an City, ranging from Hongwen Hall and Chongwen Hall to Imperial College, Imperial College, Four Schools, Legal Studies, Calligraphy, Arithmetic and other higher education institutions, as well as to specialized teaching of Taoism.
Chongyuanxue, medicine under the Imperial Medical Office, veterinary medicine under Taipu Temple, astronomy and calculus under Si Tianjian, agriculture, seed science, botany under the East Palace, etc.
Even the government-run elementary school and Confucian classics in Chang'an were under the control of Yong Wangxian.
Among all the lieutenants, Yong Wangxian has the highest status.
Among the deputy governors were the Grand Governor of Baiqi Division, Dr. Zijin Guanglu from Yushitai, the Vice Minister of Zhongshu Province, the Minister of Civil Affairs of Menxia Province, the Minister of Industry, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of War, as well as the Chang'an Ten
The two generals of the Six Guards, plus Yun Chu.
The emperor promised to let Yunchu serve as the guard in Chang'an, but the appointment order has not been issued yet, so Yunchu no longer hopes for it.
When Yunchu didn't touch other people's authority, the deputy left-behinds in the room were all good people who were humorous and generous. They just couldn't infringe on other people's interests. Even if there was even the slightest hint of infringement, they would be pinched alive by these people.
die.
When there are sixteen against each other, it is basically impossible to pass any political decree. Yunchu does not have the ability to satisfy the appetites of sixteen gluttons at the same time and issue a good decree.
There is no way to promulgate a good government order covering the entire Chang'an area, and Yunchu will never allow these people to put their hands into Chang'an, Wannian and other counties. If anyone tries to do anything in this regard, there will be bloody scenes of beheading hands and feet.
.
After having several banquets with the sixteen deputy lieutenants, Yun Chu was very sure that these people had been fattened up in Chang'an and it was time to kill them.
Yun Chu couldn't bear the fratricidal murder that happened in Luoyang.
After having several banquets with the sixteen Chang'an lieutenants, Yunchu felt for the first time that what Li Zhi did in Luoyang was right. If Li Zhi still wanted to rectify Luoyang, Yunchu thought that these ten people around him would
Six bastards, each of them should be worthy of their behavior in Chang'an.
The banquet was held at the back office of Wannian County. Because there was a lot of work, we ate for four days in total to appease the princes and dignitaries. When they were leaving, these people praised the canteen in Wannian County full of praise and decided to go back
Also improve the canteen of your department.
Although it is impossible to be on the same level as the canteen in Wannian County, at least it can't be too embarrassing when hosting a banquet.
After four days, this was the only work content that the seventeen deputy left-behind officers of Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty achieved. As for drought relief and relocating people from extremely drought-ridden areas to live in places with water sources, they were rejected without any surprise.
.
After finishing the high-level affairs, Yun Chu beat the drum and ascended to the throne in Wannian County.
In Wannian County, the drums were beaten to the hall. Because Yunchu had a high official rank and was the deputy left-behind supervisor of the two counties, it was natural that the officials from Chang'an County also came to the hall to listen.
The people standing at the front were undoubtedly Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi. Yun Chu didn't recognize any of the people standing within five feet behind them.
So, he rudely asked everyone standing in front to get out of the way, and then said to Lu Zhaolin and Yang Jiong who were revealed: "When I went on an expedition to the southwest, you were already the chiefs of the Department, why are you now in charge?"
Lu Zhaolin took a step forward and said: "Xiaguan is lucky and because he is usually relatively docile, he was trusted by the Registrar to be demoted one level. Others are much more miserable than Xiaguan. Many bosses are now even worse than handymen."
Yun Chu glared at the Wu Chengsi brothers and said, "Did you do it?"
Wu Chengsi spread his hands and said: "The lower official is the order of Chang'an, so naturally he will not overstep his authority to manage the affairs of Wannian County. Moreover, although there are changes in the people in Chang'an County, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. More than 90% of the personnel are
With old hands, I think they are quite easy to use."
Yun Chu nodded when he heard this. He believed that the Wu brothers should have this awareness.
Immediately, he cast his gaze on the anxious face of Lu Xiu, the chief secretary of Wannian County, and frowned: "You don't like them, don't you?"
Lu Xiu bowed and said: "For your information, the officials in Wannian County have been serving for ten years, and there are many who have served for seven or eight years. For example, Lu Zhaolin, Yang Jiong, etc. have also served in Wannian County for five years.
More than enough.
One person is responsible for one thing and cannot hold office for a long time. This is the custom of the country and the dynasty."
After hearing Lu Xiu's explanation, Yun Chu did not respond to him. Instead, he directly said to Lu Zhaolin and Yang Jiong: "What Wannian County was like when a certain family left Chang'an, it will be restored to what it will be like when they go to court again tomorrow."
Lu Xiu said anxiously: "Your Majesty, all personnel arrangements have gone through the procedures of the Ministry of Personnel, and the appointment of new personnel has also passed the selection of the Ministry of Personnel and cannot be changed."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "There's nothing that can't be changed. Let's re-submit the paperwork to the Ministry of Personnel. If you are wrong today, you will be promoted to the director tomorrow."
Yun Chu knocked on the gavel, which was the end of today's events.
When Yunchu went to the back hall, Lu Zhaolin lifted up the hem of his robe, shook it hard and said to Yang Jiong, "It's a good thing you didn't go to the army, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten this precious promotion opportunity."
Yang Jiong smiled and said: "You still have to go to the military, but you can get more benefits if you go after you get promoted."
Lu Xiu, the chief clerk, saw the arrogance of the two people and said, "I am the chief clerk of Wannian County appointed by the Emperor. Even if Marquis Yun doesn't like it, what can I do to him?"
The Wu brothers looked at each other and felt that the things here had nothing to do with them, so they left first. As early as when their brothers came to Chang'an County to take up posts in advance, they knew about the changes in Wannian County.
Although Lu Xiu was appointed by the emperor as chief clerk, the Wu brothers did not think that the emperor would allow Lu Xiu to act recklessly in Wannian County. Without it, Wannian County and Chang'an Xian's subordinates could not just find anyone to do it.
Instead, they are all experienced petty officials, who are extremely proficient in Chang'an's rules, regulations, and procedures, and are also familiar with local affairs.
Not to mention, these petty officials themselves are old people who participated in the construction of Chang'an's rules and regulations. If Lu Xiu wants to replace these old people, there are only two ways, one is promotion and the other is honorary care. Of course, the prerequisite for both of these is to first
Cultivate their replacements.
Not only the Wu brothers knew this, but even the minor officials who had been dismissed and demoted by the chief clerk also knew it. Therefore, when Lu Xiu dealt with the minor officials in the county government according to his own ideas, the minor officials did not
Without the slightest complaint, he simply turned around and left.
I have been working tirelessly in Wannian County for many years. Now, I just take the opportunity to give myself a big vacation. Wouldn't it be nice to wait for the prince to come back and listen to his advice?
The Wu brothers left the lobby and naturally came to Yunchu's official residence. Wu Chengsi poured a cup of tea for Yunchu, and then poured it for his brother. Then he said to Yunchu: "The prince cannot kill Lu Xiu."
.”
Yun Chu said in surprise: "When did I say I wanted to kill Lu Xiu?"
Wu Chengsi drank tea and said
"Please don't hide it from our brothers, Junhou. Just now, our brothers could clearly see the murderous intent in Junhou's eyes."
Yun Chu shook his head again and said, "I will not kill Lu Xiu. He just did what he should do as a chief administrator."
Wu Sansi took a sip of tea and said, "Your Majesty went on a killing spree in Luoyang. Did he really let Chang'an go?"
Yun Chu spread his hands and said, "It seems like I should have let him go."
Wu Chengsi chuckled and said: "The Lord left Luoyang, and the evil ghost Zhou Xing followed in the footsteps of the Lord and headed west. Why?"
Yun Chu said: "Wannian County has been short of a county magistrate for many years. I originally reserved this position for the county captain Zhang Jia, but Zhang Jia is just a piece of mud that cannot be lifted up. The official department is clinging to it.
Saying that Zhang Jia was born in a lowly family and giving him a seventh-grade county captain is already an unprecedented move, and I would not give him a sixth-grade county magistrate under any circumstances."
Wu Chengsi seemed not to have heard what Yun Chu said, and said slowly: "Luoyang is littered with corpses, how could Chang'an be spared? However, Chang'an is not His Majesty's residence, so he will be treated with reduced treatment and Zhou will be spared."
Wouldn’t you like this evil spirit to come over and clean it up?”
Wu Sansi followed: "The prince must have put in a lot of effort to let Zhou Xing serve as the county magistrate of Wannian County. In this way, the prince can control the size of this storm, right?"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "I have informed the princes in Chang'an that His Majesty has gone to Jiucheng Palace to recuperate."
Wu Chengsi laughed and said: "Is there any contradiction between recuperation and killing? I know our uncle's temperament. Although he is physically weak, he has a strong mind. Just look at what he has to do in these years. You will know
, which one did he give up halfway? Which one did he not respond to and had no results? "
Wu Sansi chuckled and said, "Your Majesty has weakened the power of the Queen and the Prince. Why is it that only their power has been weakened, while the people here in Chang'an can make a fortune without incident?"
Today, this Lu Xiu is talking nonsense except for one thing, which is that one person has one thing to do, and one cannot live in the same place for a long time."
Yun Chu smiled and said: "If we talk about longevity, who can live longer than me?"
Wu Chengsi laughed even louder.
"How much did Junhou pay for this? Junhou may have told him explicitly? At least, our brothers know that the Yun family only has 30% of the shares of Liushui brand. The Yun family's properties east of Luoyang and north of Huainan have been replaced and sold.
All the personnel retreated and turned to the center of Sichuan, the southwest, and the vast Hebei. I am afraid that the Yun clan only has one Dahang city left, right?"
Wu Sansi filled Yun Chu's tea cup with water and said, "So, Chang'an is about to be in disaster?"
Wu Chengsi added: "Of course your loss will not be in vain. Since you lost it elsewhere, you must find it back in Chang'an.
Then, if you want to kill someone, you might as well tell our brothers, our brothers have no other abilities, but they are still good at fueling the flames."
Yun Chu thought for a while and said: "Chang'an needs to move to a higher level, become richer, stronger, and more vital."
Wu Chengsi nodded and said: "What the Lord is saying is that anyone who becomes an obstacle to the development of Chang'an will be eliminated? That's good. By removing the constraints, we can make the journey more lightly, and we can go faster this way.
Some."
Yun Chu patted the table and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Zhou Xing is here to work for His Majesty, and I don't have the ability to touch such high-ranking families."
Wu Sansi nodded repeatedly and said: "The Lord is right, Zhou Xing is here, and we all live in fear. We dare not add fuel to the flames, nor take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents. We only dare to work honestly."
Yun Chu scratched his hair and said to the Wu brothers as though he had toothache: "I should have beaten your brothers to death back then, instead of leaving them here to become a disaster now."
"hahahahahahahahahaha……"
The Wu brothers burst into loud laughter in unison, seemingly extremely proud of themselves.
