The new year begins from rebellion, which may indicate the overall pace of the year.
Xu Xuan, a Changshe native, read the prophecy and said to Liu Lan: "There are people in the world who have been together for a long time. It is said that General Liu will become the lord of the world."
Liu Lan's son Liu Zhao said again: "The prophecy says that the emperor comes from the north of the sea, and our family lives in Beihai."
After hearing this, Liu Lan felt itchy and felt that she had the ability and military power, and that she could also sit in the position of the emperor.
Then, the county magistrate You Wenzhi committed a crime and was sentenced to death. You Wenzhi began to bite someone before he died, and he began to bite someone randomly.
Unfortunately, Liu Lan was bitten by You Wenzhi. Even if the court officials were in charge, Liu Lan found out that the Liu family was not in a bad mood. Then all the Liu family members were killed, and Liu Lan himself was beheaded.
The most conspicuous thing about this matter is that it is neither Liu Lan nor You Wenzhi, but Qiu Xinggong, the general of the Right Guard.
Qiu Xinggong took Liu Lan's heart and soul cruelly and ate it on the spot, and directly stole the show and became the protagonist of this matter.
After hearing this, Li Shimin summoned Qiu Xinggong to reprimand: "There are regular laws and regulations on the punishment of the state, why do you have to do this?
If you have to say that eating the thief's heart and liver can be called loyalty and filial piety, then Liu Lan's heart and liver will be eaten by the crown prince Wei and others.
Where is your turn!"
When Qiu Xinggong heard this, he was speechless.
In short, although Liu Lan rebelled, or just wanted to rebel, this happened at the beginning of the year, which was not a good sign.
However, this incident is just the prelude to this year's drama.
However, for Li Tai, the work at hand, that is, Lingyan Pavilion, was built.
Then the twenty-four heroes who followed Li Shimin were hung on Lingyan Pavilion one by one. Of course, the rankings on it have changed a little. For example, Du Ruhui was originally ranked third in history, but now he is ranked behind Fang Xuanling.
As Li Tai handled the matter between Lingyan Pavilion, he focused on the road from Luoyang to Chang'an.
The fact is not only Li Tai, but when Li Tai made his move to start building this road, the families of all sizes of Jingzhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, they have more or less found someone to invest in the stock. If Li Tai doesn't build it, they will be anxious.
This time Li Tai came to the Ministry of Works and began to appoint officials from the Ministry of Works. In the past, he didn't need to be afraid of the Ministry of Works. Now he needs to use it. Naturally, the Ministry of Works itself has the most top craftsman talents in the entire Tang Dynasty and the widest range of them.
material network.
At the same time, since you are planning to implement the craftsman's comment level model, you naturally have to rate the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works.
Soon, they appeared in front of Li Tai like Yan Lixing, Xu Xiaode, Li Sheng, Jia and others.
Yan Lixing is Yan Liben's younger brother. To some extent, he is also the biggest helper to assist Li Tai in controlling the Ministry of Works. He is the Minister of Works and is also responsible for the Ministry of Works, one of the four departments.
Li Sheng looked like an old man and seemed to be inactive, but Yan Lixing respected him very much and was in charge of the Yu tribe, one of the four tribes.
Xu Xiaode was originally the chief supervisor, but he did a good job, so he was transferred to the Ministry of Works as a doctor and worked part-time as a garrison in one of the four departments.
And in the end, Jia mastered the Water Department, one of the four departments.
Simply put, the Ministry of Works not only provides the emperor with construction, but also with the Yu Ministry in charge of mountains, rivers and swamps. Basically, the means of production in this area are related to the Yu Ministry.
Xu Xiaode's treasury department is responsible for dividing the land. For example, the land that Li Tai, as the prince, has every year, is the work part.
However, Jia's water department had the most dealings with, because theoretically, the world's canal facilities are managed by the Ministry of Water Department, and even the canal transportation system established by Li Tai is strictly under the name of the Ministry of Water Department.
So Li Tai and Jia have more or less dealt with each other, and know that this is a better person to get along with.
Li Tai looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, the next construction of the road from Chang'an to Luoyang is the first project I came to the Ministry of Works to actually preside over the construction. I hope to live in harmony with you and complete this project properly.
Because I am not familiar with the work process of the Ministry of Works, this time I still focus on corvee labor under my command."
"King of Wei?!" Hearing Li Tai's words, although Yan Lixing thought that Li Tai was strong, he did not expect that Li Tai would be so strong.
After all, the King of Wei has always used his own corvee service system, but unexpectedly, when everyone had recognized his strength and took the initiative to move closer to the King of Wei, the King of Wei still focused on his own corvee service.
Li Tai stretched out his hand to stop Yan Lixing's words and continued, "I know the structure of the Ministry of Works."
Except for officials and master craftsmen, the implementation of major projects basically requires recruitment of corvee labor for construction.
But I feel that this kind of work efficiency is too slow, so I use my subordinates to do hard work.
In this regard, it should not have much impact on your daily work."
When everyone present heard Li Tai's words, they couldn't help but open their mouths. They wanted to say that Li Tai's behavior was too expensive.
But thinking about it was Li Tai, there was nothing to worry about like money. Yan Lixing said: "What does the King of Wei want us to do?"
"I hope to rate the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works." Li Tai said,
"I used to rate me corvee craftsmen, such as the master craftsmen, elite craftsmen, craftsmen apprentices, etc.
But I hope the Ministry of Works will carry out a more detailed hierarchical system and divide craftsmen into nine levels.
The first three levels are considered qualified craftsmen and can help the people repair the corresponding tools.
The third-level middle school is considered to be excellent craftsmen. If something happens, it needs to be recruited urgently. Through the roster, you can directly find these craftsmen.
As for the third level, they are the best masters in the world, so they naturally need to be included in the Ministry of Works as much as possible.
Of course, after craftsmen rating, there will be some small benefits, such as when I post New Year Festival every year, they will also have them.
In short, these craftsmen will enjoy certain benefits. When our court needs craftsmen to work, we can find these people as soon as possible, thereby increasing the overall efficiency of the Ministry of Works.”
"King of Wei, what are the criteria for craftsmen's rating?" Li Sheng saluted Li Tai and asked.
"I don't know!" Li Tai replied angrily, making the people in front of him look at each other.
Li Tai said calmly, "The purpose of my setting of standards is to allow the court to find corresponding craftsmen more efficiently based on the account book.
But craftsmen have all kinds of strange jobs, so how to evaluate them is not an easy task.
At least I can't get them all together and take the exam.
So, my idea is to let all the craftsmen participate in large-scale projects, and in this project, they will be rated according to their excellent performance.”
"It would be easy to say if there were such large-scale projects, but what about some craftsmen who were good at small forging, such as blacksmiths? Then how should they be graded!" Li Sheng asked again.
Li Tai replied to Li Sheng: "If you just create weapons, then no matter how outstanding you are, you are just a good craftsman.
If you want to obtain the qualification of a top third-grade master craftsman, you can at least develop methods that can increase the efficiency of iron smelting or make the iron tools sharper and more resilient.
Of course, there will definitely be problems in this process.
So, at the beginning, I didn’t want to promote it directly to the entire country, but at least I had to assess the masters of the Ministry of Works.”
"The King of Wei also wants to promote this project to the whole country and evaluate all the craftsmen across the country?" Yan Lixing asked.
"Yeah!" Li Tai nodded, "I just had a vague idea.
The lower third level requires local examinations, while the middle third level requires work with large projects. As for the upper third level, it depends on whether there are any suggestions that are helpful to the entire industry.
In addition, Aye promised me that if the craftsman who performed best this time was allowed to be awarded to a county man of the fifth rank!"
The people present were surprised when they heard Li Tai's words. Even for the few people present, there were not many men from fifth-rank county rank. Unexpectedly, this time the saint was willing to award the county rank to a certain craftsman.
This is enough for these craftsmen to fight to the death.
Even if this kind of title cannot be passed on, for craftsmen, at least they have the opportunity to transcend classes.
Even if his son is a craftsman like him, he is not a craftsman who works, but can enter the Ministry of Works and become a technical official in charge of the management.
"This craftsman rating project and the road from Chang'an to Luoyang, let's take this entire project as a running-in between me and the Ministry of Works."
Li Tai looked at the four and began to introduce Wang Zhenru and Tao around him. "I may not come to the Ministry of Works often in the future. If I am not in the Ministry of Works, my private military officer Wang Zhenru can completely replace me and deal with matters in the Ministry of Works."
"I have met you, I hope we can get along well in the future!" Wang Zhenru said to everyone with a very kind heart.
Wang Zhenru was so kind, but no one present dared to underestimate Wang Zhenru.
Because if King Wei was a planner, then Wang Zhenru was an engineer. All the plans of King Wei were completed by Wang Zhenru.
This is true in Youzhou, Luoyang, and Henan. Now it is the turn of Chang'an to Luoyang, and it is still handed over to Wang Zhenru.
Under the trust of Li Tai, Wang Zhenru assisted Li Tai in completing the integration of the corvee service system created by the first-hand and the original system of the Ministry of Works.
For example, the project plan of the Ministry of Works has always been just a rough idea. How much it does every day depends on the consciousness of the corvee workers and the soldiers behind them constantly urging them with whips.
When Wang Zhenru comes, then just change it in one word.
Detailed project progress is formulated every month, week and day, and you should work as much as you should, and you can rest after you finish it.
If you can't finish it, you will work overtime until it gets dark and you must complete your project.
For example, the food of officials from the Ministry of Works must be good, but the labor service requires the self-bred food.
In addition, every time you do five or one practice, the Ministry of Works has more complaints.
After all, in their opinion, corvee labor should not be rested, and it is not a legal holiday. What's wrong with letting corvee laborers do more work?
After all, only people who are useless to the Tang Dynasty will think of resting. As an official of the Tang Dynasty, he has never thought of resting.
If you have money to get these corvee labor, you still have to rest!
Wang Zhenru ignored these complaints from officials, or Li Tai's support, so that Wang Zhenru could continue to do things according to the work process of Gaoling corvee workers.
If these officials want to object, it would be great to kick him out of the project. He will continue to be his work department official, but he will be marginalized.
This is why Li Tai had to build the Wanxiang Temple first, because the people from the Ministry of Works knew very well that the King of Wei's corvee system could build the Chidao by himself.
Now the King of Wei has given a chance to take them to play with him, but if they are ignorant, don't blame King of Wei for leaving them behind.
Therefore, although the staff of the Ministry of Works complained, they still actively integrated into Li Tai's corvee system.
These people from the Ministry of Works are at least from aristocratic families. As long as they are willing to integrate into Li Tai's corvee service system, they are actually very fast in mastering things, at least much easier than cultivating a qualified corvee service themselves.
At the same time, Li Tai also tried to add his improved version of the method to the Ministry of Works to this attempt to get started.
Simply put, it is to formulate three books of account books, the first one is with you, and come to check and supervise the progress of the entire project every month.
The second book was delivered to Fang Xuanling, allowing it to be kept in stock to supervise his work efficiency.
The last book is in the hands of Wang Zhenru, and he is responsible for implementing it and urges everyone to complete the work according to the content of the content.
To be honest, Fang Xuanling was quite surprised when she received the first account book from Li Tai.
Because usually, when working at the Ministry of Works, they always just urge the court to urge money and then to pay money. Li Tai made the monthly tasks of the Ministry of Works in such detail and the money and grain needed, which at least made Fang Xuanling feel a lot in his mind.
.
Turning a page, which official is responsible for the project this month can hold every specific official accountable.
However, Fang Xuanling didn't know whether this kind of management method of urging officials was useful or not, so he agreed to Li Tai's attempt to take the exam in the Ministry of Works.
After all, King Wei himself is here, so what else is Fang Xuanling even more?
Li Tai knew very well that the most suitable thing for the test is the Ministry of Industry Project that deals with data.
At least it is more convenient to place it in these places in the early stage, because this kind of thing can be verified by mathematics, and it will be as much as you do.
If it is put into the hands of the book writer, others will argue for an hour and a half to determine whether this sentence is used. The existence of the method of examination may not allow them to do a better job of writing.
However, for Li Tai, the method of taking the exam can help him choose someone who is more suitable for his work efficiency.
As for those who do not meet their work efficiency, just keep him in the Ministry of Works and find a way to cut him off in the future.
But what Li Tai didn't expect was that after trying the method of taking the test for two months, Li Tai didn't feel anything, but the more Fang Xuanling used it, his eyes became brighter.
For Fang Xuanling, who has always adhered to streamlining the bureaucracy, it seems that he has obtained a peerless sword that suits him very well!
