Ten thousand guan, divided among more than 300 people, can be divided into at least 30 guan.
Based on the current salary of various departments of the county government, the monthly salary of ordinary personnel is only seven or eight guan. This 100 guan is several months' salary, which is naturally full of temptation.
Du He sat on the stage and said calmly: "This county has said that it will never treat everyone who has contributed to Hu County badly. We will do what we say... Now, Lao Ma will distribute the money to everyone on behalf of the county.
award."
Wow.
The door to the conference room opened again.
A large number of guards suddenly rushed in at the door. Every four of them carried a large box, more than twenty large boxes, and visited the stage.
Someone with sharp eyes noticed that after the boxes were piled up, the wooden platform actually bent, which showed that the box was very heavy.
Du He raised his hand.
The box opened with a clatter.
Suddenly, boxes full of Kaiyuan Tongbao appeared in front of everyone.
It’s all money!
Many people's eyes shone.
Ma Zhou took out the roster and began to read: "Fan Zhensi, hosted by the Secretariat, worked hard and did not complain. I will be rewarded with thirty guan. Go up to the stage to receive the reward."
When a young scholar heard this, he rushed to the stage impatiently and got twenty strings.
Not long after he joined the county government secretariat, he was so happy to receive a reward.
Ma Zhou read again: "Zhou Da, a staff member of the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce, has made meritorious service in raising pigs, and will be rewarded thirty guans!"
One by one, names appeared, and these guys all got the reward money.
The person who received the most reward was a young man named Wang Mang. This man studied veterinary medicine with Liu Xiu, a pig farmer, and was very successful. He received a reward of two hundred guan.
In the audience, some people couldn't sit still.
These people are also people from various departments of the county government. Many are craftsmen from Anhu Avenue, and some are from the city management brigade.
However, when the list was finally read out, they discovered that they were not on the list.
Swish.
In the crowd, a man stood up angrily.
"Prince, this is not fair!" The man stood up and shouted.
Du He turned around and saw a man in his forties wearing a long gown looking over in confusion.
"Who are you?" Du He asked.
"My dear He Yan, thanks to the county government for not giving up, is currently the deputy minister of the County Government's Department of Agriculture and Commerce. Although I have no outstanding achievements, I manage the Department of Agriculture and Commerce in an orderly manner and must personally handle all matters, large and small. Since the establishment of the Department of Agriculture and Commerce, I have never done anything
There has been even the slightest mistake, and the lower officials have no merit but hard work. Now, many people in the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce have received rewards, why haven't the lower officials... The lower officials are by no means greedy for money. They just ask the county officials to treat everyone equally, so as not to chill people's hearts.
Ah..." He Yan said fiercely.
Du He looked at the other person.
Although he was not familiar with He Yan, the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce was indispensable for the success of the Huxian farm and pig farm.
Ma Zhou whispered from the side: "My lord, although He Yan is not a talented person, he never compromises on carrying out his orders. Among all the departments in the county government, he is second to none."
Du He nodded and suddenly smiled: "Master He, you have misunderstood. I have no prejudice against you. I don't believe you. Master He, look back. Who are the people who did not receive the reward today?"
He Yan and others looked around and suddenly realized that those who had not received the reward were not recruited by Du He.
These people were all borrowed by Du He from various ministries in the court.
For example, He Yan came from the Ministry of Personnel and was previously a chief executive of the Ministry of Personnel.
Some of the people around him came from the Ministry of Personnel, some from the Ministry of War, some from the Ministry of Industry, and some from the Ministry of Punishment.
Before Du He took office in Hu County, he asked the Ministry of Personnel to borrow 20 officials, the Ministry of Works to borrow 30 craftsmen, the Ministry of Rites to borrow 10 officials who were familiar with etiquette, and the Ministry of Punishments to borrow 15 officials who were familiar with the investigation.
The officials who tried the case also asked the Ministry of War to borrow a hundred veterans who had been on the battlefield.
His Majesty Li Er knew about this matter and acquiesced to it.
Du He is so xenophobic?
Everyone looked angry.
He Yan asked: "Jun Gong, we come from the middle of the court, and most of our official titles are around the sixth or seventh rank. It is more than enough to be placed in Hu County and serve as county magistrate. After I arrived in Hu County, I did not complain a word.
I dare not do my best in everything I do when sent by the Duke, but what I get in return is such treatment, which is really heartbreaking... If the Duke behaves like this because we are outsiders, it is really hard to understand!"
Du He laughed and said, "Sir, what you said is wrong. This county has always treated everyone equally, regardless of whether they are inside or outside. As for this matter, Mr. He might as well think about it, your daily salary is paid by Hu County?"
"Of course it will be distributed to the Central Government!"
When He Yan said this, he felt aggrieved. The salary in the imperial court was distributed every three months, but instead of giving out Kaiyuan Tongbao, grain, oil, cloth, silk, etc. were distributed.
He Yan once calculated secretly and found that his monthly salary, after calculation, was less than five guan, which could just buy a pound of white pork.
In fact, it was impossible for an insignificant official like He Yan in the Tang Dynasty to support a large family with his salary. Therefore, most officials had their own property, and most of those without property could find ways to make a fortune. However, He Yan
He is not good at buying property, and he doesn't want to be a corrupt official. Over the years, his family has relied on some land to live, and their life has been very difficult.
Whenever he found out in the dead of night that his salary was not as good as that of an errand boy in the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce, he began to doubt his life.
Du He heard the words and nodded: "Master He, this is the reason. You are all officials of the imperial court, not subordinates of this county. If this county pays you salaries and rewards, wouldn't it be wrong if your Majesty knew about it?
Have you confirmed the serious crime of rebellion in this county? Not to mention that your majesty does not blame you, even those officials in the court can kill this county with words... Therefore, this county is not unappreciative of everyone's contribution, but...
It’s really hard to explain, please understand.”
After hearing this, He Yan and others stopped talking.
They are all smart people and naturally know the consequences of what Du He said.
Suddenly, an official asked curiously: "My lord, I remember that Wang Mang, who received the most rewards, is from the Ministry of Industry. Why did he get the reward?"
Du He slapped his thigh, "I forgot to tell you, Wang Mang submitted his resignation to the Ministry of Industry a month ago, and the government has agreed to his request to resign. Now, Wang Mang has joined the pig farm, and now
He’s from a pig farm!”
Wow!
The dozens of people present were all in an uproar.
Is there such a thing?
At this time, Li Ke sneered and said: "Why are you arguing? Is there anything strange about resigning? I also tell you that the hundred people borrowed from the Ministry of War have now all broken away from the Ministry of War and become Hu County
He's from the city management brigade, what's the fuss about this?"
The words of Du He and Li Ke stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, setting off huge waves in everyone's hearts.
