In Taifu, Li Tai was received by Su Chuo not long after waiting.
Su Chuo was as vigorous and resolute as ever in his work. After listening to Li Tai's statement of his purpose, he took the personnel plan and browsed it.
After reading it, he raised his head again and looked at Li Tai with a frown and asked: "Dushui, river canal, is it necessary to use so many people?"
It is normal for Su Chuo to have this question. From the beginning of the establishment of the entire Western Wei Dynasty, the personnel structure was very rough and crude, and the same was true for the Ba Mansion. The Mo Cao who Li Taiqian worked for was only about 20 people, and he was already an important official in the Tai Mansion.
Structural size.
The personnel concept proposed by Li Tai doubled the number of Dushuitai officials alone, not including the canal envoys and other personnel who would be set up according to the incident. If it were to be fully implemented, I am afraid it would have to exceed the above number.
A staff of one hundred people.
This is obviously different from the style before Xingtai, so Su Chuo asked this question.
Li Tai was well prepared for this. After hearing the words, he quickly explained: "It is necessary. Water conservancy is the foundation of mulberry farming. The former Cao Cao and the prefectures and counties are in charge of it, but many people are idle and cannot be full-time. Since the Great Unification,
, there is almost no water conservancy construction in the huge Kansai area.
The canal is in ruins and the weirs are in disrepair. The so-called "maximizing the land's benefit" policy is just a written statement. Powerful people dominate the water, and the people have lost their land. Public and private coordination is in need of collective wisdom. There are also indiscriminate construction of weirs, which need to be scrutinized and scrutinized carefully.
To replenish the country's resources, eliminate old abuses and open up new things, it is indeed necessary for those in charge to work together."
As the saying goes, if you don't have diamonds, you won't do porcelain work, but there are also clever women who can't make a meal without rice. He has already boasted to Daxingtai that he wants to make progress in everything, but he can't do it on his own, and there is still room for improvement now.
, of course we must try our best.
Of course, Su Chuo also knew that Daxingtai attached great importance to this matter. After listening to Li Tai's explanation, he nodded, but then said: "There are not enough idle personnel in the Tai government now, and Li Lang, you are doing a lot of new political techniques.
I'm afraid it's not enough to mobilize all the troops, so you need to recruit soldiers from the field."
Li Tai had already planned and prepared for this. After hearing this, he said: "I am not qualified enough to attract the masses. I also hope that Su Shangshu can assist me in recruiting people."
"You think I have too few cases? Don't worry about doing it, but if you can keep your mind on doing things impartially, you won't be afraid of what others say."
After Su Chuo heard this, he smiled and said that he had no intention of intervening in Li Tai's personnel issues to show his authority.
"With the words of Shangshu, I feel more at ease. Although people may speak softly, they will do their best."
Having your own plans is one thing, but asking for instructions from your superiors is also the minimum respect. Su Chuo himself is not a person who is extremely power-hungry, and the current hegemonic politics does not tolerate too much intrigue, so people can focus on things.
Looking at Su Chuo's slightly sunken eye sockets, Li Tai couldn't help but sigh to himself. It's a pity that his son Su Wei couldn't learn from his father's style of life, so even though he was famous for half his life, he ended up in a miserable life.
After the personnel issues were finalized, Li Taicai spoke again: "When I visited today, in addition to asking the minister to correct the omissions and omissions, I also want to ask, when a new matter is established, can the Taiwan government provide capital so that those in charge can create the matter as soon as possible?
"
"Wait a minute, let me take a look!"
When Su Chuo heard this, he frowned subconsciously. It was not that he was disgusted with Li Tai's question, but that he had an instinctive irritability towards such questions.
This year he received a new tax from the Taiwan government, but the finances of the Taiwan government have been unhealthy for a long time. Su Chuo was so powerless in this position that he felt a headache when he heard people begging for money, food and supplies.
He stood up and walked to the desk on the other side, quickly browsed through the recent payment items, and then shook his head helplessly at Li Tai, sighing: "There is no relevant judgment order in Daxingtai, so the Taifu
It is true that there is no money to give at the moment. I am really in a dilemma here. Li Lang, you should go to Daxingtai to sue Daxingtai. If Daxingtai allows us to do something special, then I can make arrangements for cuts and subsidies."
Li Tai was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. He also understood that Su Chuo was not deliberately making things difficult for him. There must be no room for adjustment, so he directed him to go to the boss to complain.
So he stopped bothering Su Chuo, got up and left, and went straight to Taifu. Not to mention the large investment required in the early stage of Luo Shuiqu, just the salary and food and drink of so many subordinates was also a big problem.
.
Regardless of whether he has a way to solve the problem himself, he must mention the need to the leader. If the leader authorizes him to solve it by himself, that means he is effective and trusted by the leader. If the leader does not mention the matter but he takes the initiative to solve it, that is out of order.
Forming parties for personal gain.
When he came to the Zhitang to ask for an interview, he was told that Daxingtai had left early. Although he missed the opportunity, he still got paper and pen from his colleagues in the recording office, wrote down his demands on the case, and
Please put it in a conspicuous place on your desk. I hope Daxingtai can see it as soon as possible.
Not being able to see Yu Wentai, seeing that it was still early, he wandered around the Taifu again, chatting with a few familiar Taifu officials, and by the way mentioned that he was recruiting subordinates, hoping that if these colleagues had any
Suitable candidates can be recommended to him.
Of course, he is not lacking in people and is eager for talents. He is nothing more than expressing his attitude that he does not live alone and is willing to work together with everyone to exchange some political resources with each other.
Not long after he entered the industry, he was quickly promoted to the position of Zhonglang, and was also given the opportunity to preside over special affairs. It was impossible not to be jealous, and he also needed to strengthen the human ties and interest entanglements with his colleagues in the Taiwan government. Even if there were
Even the hidden arrows shot from behind can be shielded and shared with others.
While Li Tai was socializing with his colleagues in Tai Mansion, Yu Wentai also held a family banquet in the backyard of Ba Mansion to entertain fellow countryman Zhao Gui.
Yuwentai's daily life was not luxurious, and the furnishings in the hall were simple. Apart from him, there were only Zhao Gui and Director Yuwen who were accompanying him on the side table.
Zhao Gui had just been recalled from Chang'an. He was sitting in the banquet with disheveled beard and hair, bloodshot eyes, and a haggard appearance. After being greeted and seated at the table, he just drank.
Yu Wentai naturally understood where Zhao Gui's sadness came from, but for a moment he didn't know how to open the topic. He just signaled the waiter to pour wine for Zhao Gui diligently.
After drinking deeply, Zhao Gui's eyes welled up with tears. He suddenly left the table and kowtowed in front of Yu Wentai's table. He took off his seal and talisman and placed it in front of him. He even swallowed: "I am too stupid to do anything. The blood of my family is still high."
He is unable to keep a watchful eye, and he is not worthy of being promoted to a major event by the Lord... When this misfortune occurs in the house, both father and son are the laughing stock of the world, the perpetrators laugh wildly in the dark, and every time I see the sad state of my son, my heart aches!"
Yuwentai did not directly respond to Zhao Gui's cry, but just sat at the table and pointed at Director Yuwen and said: "Go to Chang'an and interrogate each one since the governor of Yongzhou. If there is anyone who is covering up the crime, he will be arrested if found out! If not, order the state to do so.
The county strictly investigates the bandits within the territory and finds out where the crimes were committed as soon as possible!"
After hearing this, Director Yuwen stood up and responded, but he was not in a hurry to leave.
The incident has happened for many days, and the first-hand clues and evidence have long since disappeared. Even if the world is peaceful, it will not be easy to track it down. What's more, there are already a lot of roaming bandits around Gyeonggi. Even if these people are not responsible for the murder,
Their wandering around without a fixed location can also greatly confuse sight.
Moreover, the clues provided by Zhao Gui's slaves were also secretive and even contradictory in some places. It was almost impossible to investigate the matter clearly.
Therefore, regardless of Yu Wentai's instructions or Zhao Gui's current appearance, what he wants is nothing more than an attitude. A moment earlier or a moment later does not mean much.
Yu Wentai got up and went down to the hall, walked to Zhao Gui, squatted down, picked up his seals and talismans and hung them back one by one. He patted Zhao Gui's rickety and trembling shoulders and sighed: "Yuan Gui and I are not just in power.
Distinguish between up and down? We met each other in humble circumstances, knew each other on dangerous roads, and had more than one past incident of supporting each other and coexisting with each other. How could you abandon me in the middle of the road?"
When Zhao Gui heard this, he cried loudly and kowtowed repeatedly: "I, I am so ashamed. When I was trapped in Ge Rong's army, it would have been impossible for me to survive without the protection and care of King Luosheng... At that time, I secretly vowed that I must
Determined to follow you, I will live up to your great kindness! But now that the Lord has made great achievements in Kansai, he has commanded many heroes, internal and external officials, and his duties are no longer necessary for his ministers, ministers..."
"What nonsense is this! Am I just a ruthless and unrighteous man? Even so, true loyal confidants are needed to share the cause! The deep friendship between each other is not as good as the little thing in Tori's arms when he was young.
?I don’t blame you for saying such words easily because you love your son so much, but if you are still stubborn, it will make people sad!”
Yuwentai gave Director Yuwen a wink. Upon seeing this, Director Yuwen went into the back hall and led out several cousins.
Yu Wentai stood up and ordered his children to come forward to pay tribute to Zhao Gui. Upon seeing this, Zhao Gui quickly stood up and sidestepped.
"Letting these idiots come out to worship is not to show off the number of people in the household to you, Yuan Gui. I just want to tell you that these little things are not unusual."
Yuwentai took Zhao Gui and sent him back to the banquet. He pointed to a few timid little girls and said: "I had secretly planned it before. At this moment of frustration and sadness, I told Yuan Gui clearly that one of the girls was for
Your family supports her. If you don’t mind my simple upbringing, select her from this hall, and when she begins to look like her, please take her away to serve her!"
Hearing Daxingtai's words, Zhao Gui became excited again. He hurriedly got up from the table and bowed deeply in the tunnel: "How lucky are you, my son, how lucky you are to have Daxingtai treat you so affectionately!
From now on, I will cultivate my moral character, make meritorious deeds bravely, and be grateful for your kindness!"
Yuwentai raised his hand to screen out his children, and sat back in the banquet. Then he said to Zhao Gui: "This is what I, a hero in Beizhen, should say. Although my daughter is not precious, I hope she can deserve the honor."
, encounter good things, good family tradition, deep love and harmony!"
After Zhao Gui heard this, he naturally nodded in agreement. Although Daxingtai promised to get married, he was elated, but he couldn't help but secretly regret it. His eldest son was of the right age, but he was disabled, so it was naturally impossible for him to marry a girl from the Daxingtai family.
It will take a few years for the younger son to grow up, which means that the marriage with Daxingtai will be postponed for a few years. Thinking of this, Zhao Gui not only hated those gangsters, but also complained about the eldest son Zhao Yongguo. If it weren't for this disgusting conspiracy,
If you are not careful, you may marry Daxingtai at this moment.
Seeing that Zhao Gui no longer looked dejected and sad, Yu Wentai smiled again and said: "Today I invite Yuan Gui. In addition to discussing family matters, there is also a business matter that I hope you can tolerate. Your garden on the east bank of Luoshui River
, the Taiwan government needs to requisition new projects, can you donate your house in a generous manner? "
Zhao Gui was still immersed in joy at this moment. After hearing this, he nodded without thinking and said: "The Taiwan government's big plan comes first, how can I dare to abandon public service for personal reasons? Go to the countryside immediately to clean up, and ask the Taiwan government envoy to check and accept it!"
