After the emperor's decree came, Yuzhu summoned everyone in the yamen inside and outside the main hall.
Liang Jiugong had a straight face, turned his back to the incense table, and read loudly: "The cabinet has issued an edict to confer a jade pillar to the third-class Ada Haha. I will wear a yellow mantle and admire this."
"The imperial envoy supervises Chongwenmen, and the minister Yuzhu receives the order to express gratitude..."
After Yuzhu accepted the order, Liang Jiugong ordered someone to bring the yellow mantle specially gifted by the emperor, and said with a smile on his face: "This is made of Yun brocade. Previously, it was only given to the clan or Jueluo. Long Live Lord specially gave it to you.
You have to be a good errand."
Yuzhu smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Mr. Liang, but I'll report it to the emperor on behalf of my humble minister. I, Yuzhu, will definitely live up to the emperor's kindness."
Sun Chengyun nodded secretly, and the emperor and Yuzhu reached a tacit understanding between each reward.
This tacit understanding is that one handsome man covers all the ugly ones. As long as Yuzhu can make a lot of money on time, he will be the local emperor who supervises the yamen, and the court will not control it remotely.
No matter who has tasted the taste of Yiyantang, he will definitely be fascinated and unable to extricate himself.
Yuzhu is also an old bureaucrat. When you are an official, you must speak your mind, and it is definitely not empty talk!
You can do bad things with just one word, but at the same time, for people with real abilities, there is less resistance to reform!
Everything has advantages and disadvantages!
After first rewarding the jade pillar, Liang Jiugong kept a straight face and read out the edict to severely punish Tokunaga again in public according to the old emperor's instructions.
"I have issued an edict to Deyong, the deputy supervisor of Chongwen Sect, that I have been unworthy of my kindness and acted arrogantly and rudely... I was dismissed from the flag, and my whole family was made into a slave by wearing armor."
"Zi..." After the edict was announced, there was the sound of air-conditioning pumping everywhere in the Chongwen Sect Supervisory Office.
For the bannermen who have not committed any capital crime, this punishment is as heavy as the weight of Mount Tai, and future generations will never be able to stand up again!
The old emperor openly supported Yuzhu, and for a while, all the officials in the yamen became much more obedient when they looked at Yuzhu's eyes!
Tokunaga, who has Lao Jiu on his back, has suffered such a misfortune. Who dares to touch an egg against a rock again?
As a result, the major rotation of tax items was immediately implemented without objection.
Yuzhu was a new official, and he didn't know anyone about the tax items at each city gate, let alone any confidants.
Therefore, the major rotation adopted the fairest and laziest method: drawing lots.
Chongwenmen supervises the Yamen, and all the more than twenty tax offices under it wrote down their names on paper, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into an empty flower pot.
Yuzhu was such an old man that he deliberately placed the flower pot on an Eight Immortals table, and then placed the table on the open space outside the lobby.
"Everyone, you can only draw one lot at a time and spread it out on the spot. Whatever you catch is what you draw, and you are not allowed to regret it."
After Yuzhu announced the rules of the game in public, he immediately won a large number of people's hearts.
The reason is very simple. The affairs of the Celestial Dynasty have always been not about scarcity, but about inequality!
In fact, there are only three or five tax rates that are extremely fat.
In the past, you had to spend a lot of money to buy these places.
Now, after Yuzhu takes office, he will have the opportunity to occupy that lucrative position without spending a fortune. How much money will he save in buying an official position?
"Sir, Yao Gui, although I haven't read much, I admire your knowledge and am willing to work hard for you."
Just when everyone was gearing up to draw lots, a lean man stood up and knelt down on one knee in front of Yuzhu.
When Sun Chengyun saw this scene, he couldn't help but shake his folding fan and show a knowing smile, hey, this is a truly understanding person!
Bravo!
Some people have lived a life of exhaustion, and when they are old, they are still an old salted fish in the yamen. To put it bluntly, their emotional intelligence is too low.
If a person is in an officialdom and says he is lying flat and does not want to climb up, it is a lie to say that the grapes are sour when he cannot eat them.
Who doesn’t want to have a talk?
The problem is, when the opportunity comes, if you are always hesitant and unwilling to take sides, or dare not invest, or dare not gamble, then you will only be marginalized.
This lean man kneeling down in front of everyone did not give Yuzhu a penny, and he was not a relative of Yuzhu.
However, Sun Chengyun dared to assert that at such a critical moment, this person who took the initiative to seek refuge would definitely rise to the top as long as he did not make the big mistake of taking sides in the future.
Taking sides is not only related to stuffing money, but more importantly, the timing of investment.
When the time is right, you can make a huge difference!
The timing is wrong. Your income is only one hundred taels of silver a year. Even if you give five hundred taels of silver to your boss, it will be in vain.
If you are stupid and others understand, you deserve to be commanded by others.
The reality is cruel, but the logic is smooth.
Most of the people at the bottom of the officialdom are actually people who think they are smart and think that what they lack is opportunities.
The question is, when the opportunity comes, why is it seized by others?
If everyone is really smart, then the officialdom will be full of jade pillars. Is this possible?
The story of the horse bones in Qianjin City has been passed down for a long time. How could Yuzhu not know about it?
"Master Sun, where are there still shortages of people in the Yamen?" Yuzhu deliberately turned his head and asked Sun Chengyun.
Sun Chengyun cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Going back to the eldest master, I still need a deputy committee member to help you."
"Okay, this position will be given to Yao Gui."
"Yes." Sun Chengyun bowed his hands and received Yuzhu's instructions.
In public, Sun Chengyun is completely serious. He adheres to the principle of doing business in a business-like manner. He will do what he needs to do and report what should be reported. How can he have the slightest trace of He Shuo's style?
Wow, everyone at the scene looked at Yao Gui with envy. This guy is really lucky.
If I were Yao Gui, I would definitely not be the assistant committee member of the commission, but the assistant committee member.
Damn it, Yao Gui, who is not a good person, his family is not rich and he can't even afford money, but he actually sits in such a high position. How can he be so virtuous?
Alas, why didn't I think of this trick?
Pinkeye patients can be found everywhere, so it’s not surprising at all.
However, whether it's envy or jealousy, it's a done deal.
From then on, Yao Gui was no longer a small character who could be bullied by others, but became the head of the official ranks.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When drawing lots, in order to ensure fairness, Yuzhu deliberately stood at the Eight Immortals table with his hands behind his back.
Anyone who comes to draw lots must unfold the paper ball in his hand immediately and show it to everyone.
Soon, the lot drawing was completed. Some families must be happy and some are sad.
Those who have spent a lot of money and finally bought a good job have to find a way to repay the huge debt they owe.
Due to the absolute fairness, those who are poor will only sigh and cannot complain about Yuzhu.
As for those who were rotated to Marco Polo Bridge or Haidian without spending a penny, they would be more or less grateful to Yuzhu.
These people are not close friends, but as vested interests after the change of generations, they naturally have no choice but to stay close to Yuzhu.
Yuzhu, Master Yu, gained a large number of supporters without any effort.
Liu Kan was secretly overjoyed, hehe, he gave up on the useless thing of deputy Qin Tianjian and decisively chose to board Yuzhu's ship. It was simply wonderful.
After solving the major issue of tax item rotation, Yuzhu dismissed everyone, leaving only Zhou Baoqing, the general manager of the tax inspection camp.
To put it bluntly, even if Zhou Baoqing chooses to side with Yu Zhu, Yu Zhu will have to replace him sooner or later.
There is no way, Yuzhu is determined to gain the absolute control of the tax patrol camp, and will not change it at the will of anyone else.
Since Zhou Baoqing was on the wrong team, Yu Zhu told him unceremoniously that he had been vacated!
Anyone who fills a vacancy will be dismissed!
Officials in the Qing Dynasty could move up or down. Those who made meritorious deeds could be promoted, but those who made mistakes would be dismissed from their posts and vacancies would be opened.
The most famous example is Ma Qi. After deposing the crown prince, the emperor pretended to let the ministers elect a new crown prince publicly, but openly prohibited Ma Qi from participating.
As a result, Ma Qi was also very courageous and refused to listen to the emperor's words. He insisted on engaging in collusion in private, and was dismissed as prime minister.
However, within a few years, Ma Qi was reinstated and his power was even greater than before.
Tokunaga, who relied on Lao Jiu, was actually not caught with anything, but he was treated so miserably.
Zhou Baoqing was just a sixth-grade military attache. How dare he go against Yuzhu, who was personally supported by the emperor?
So Zhou Baoqing left obediently. When he left, he didn't even dare to publicly scold Yuzhu a few times.
This is the power of power!
If you are not afraid of ruining your family, just come and scold Yuzhu!
After driving away Zhou Baoqing, Yuzhu immediately appointed Sun Chengyun to concurrently serve as the Qian General Manager of the tax inspection camp, and Niu Tai and Baixing to serve as General Managers respectively.
In this way, the military power of the tax patrol camp easily fell into the hands of Mr. Yu.
In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are just paper tigers.
The first level of officialdom is already crushing people to death, not to mention that there is an old emperor standing behind Yuzhu?
To put it bluntly, at this moment, if anyone dares to block Yuzhu's way, Yuzhu will dare to break up his wife and children.
After the tax items are rotated, it is impossible for the tax collectors below to be at the mercy of the new tax items.
The way to be a high official, to put it bluntly, is the following principle: Don’t make others work together to seek your own official position!
The committee members are all from Yuzhu, the tax patrol camp has been controlled, and the tax items have been rotated.
Well, all the power in the yamen is under the control of Lord Zhu.
After this series of coquettish operations, no matter what others thought, Liu Kan was extremely happy and wanted to shout loudly: Mr. Zhu, you are so powerful!
When his people gathered in the second hall, just when Sun Chengyun thought that Yuzhu was going to discuss with them how to collect more taxes, Yuzhu came up with a detailed list.
The list was secretly given by Longkoduo, and it contained a dense list of the top two hundred major merchants in the capital.
Yuzhu pointed at the list on the table and said with a smile: "You all should allocate yourselves. Be sure to inform these people to come to the Yamen to discuss the matter in three days."
Haha, using your power and status to pretend to invite businessmen to discuss matters, are you actually trying to get fat?
Sun Chengyun thought so, Liu Kan thought so, and even Zhao Donghe, who had been restless because of something in his heart, also thought so.
However, to be blunt, they all thought wrong. Yuzhu also had a clever trick for collecting taxes!
The old emperor is so supportive, Yuzhu will definitely show outstanding political achievements, which will make the old emperor's eyes suddenly light up.
(PS: Guess how Yuzhu managed to collect heavy taxes without any effort? The monthly ticket is a bit low, so he should be rewarded!)
