This also means that people now can move faster than people before, and can go to more places in a day, and social mobility has also been strengthened.
What happens more often around people is that people who were originally thousands of miles away can appear in front of them with the help of modern transportation in no time.
Faced with this reality, Yong Ming felt it was necessary to introduce the concept of order management in the old-style office area, which was originally home to villagers and were full of harmony, so as to make the messy office environment clean and standardized.
There are many benefits to doing this, the most important one is that it can improve work efficiency.
Originally, when you went to the Yong family's office area to do business or discuss matters, you could come and go as you pleased, and no one would restrain and manage you. It was like "herding sheep".
Regardless of whether they are members of their own tribe or people from outside, everyone has a lot of time to use, so there is no need to simplify their own affairs or the work at hand, so that they can be done quickly.
If this continues, the clan members who work as errands in the Yong family office area will inevitably become slack in their work, thus developing the habit of being too busy with work. It seems that everyone in the office area is busy, but they are in a leisurely state with low work efficiency.
Wasting precious time.
What worries Yong Ming the most is that the bad working habits formed by these Yong clan members in such a working environment will be transmitted to their relatives and friends like a virus, making them inevitably infected with the same disease as them.
question.
Once this situation spreads, for the Yong clan, it will be no less than destroying the Yong clan's proud spirit of self-improvement and family traditions, and promoting the rise of malaise and unhealthy trends.
.
As the patriarch of the Yong clan, how could Yong Ming sit back and watch this happen?
Therefore, before taking over as the head of the Yong clan, Yong Ming, who had done thorough research and compiled highly targeted management regulations, submitted the report on the application for the promulgation of new management regulations to his father for review and approval.
My father, who was already ill at the time, recognized Yong Ming's ideas and took the practical issues raised in the report very seriously.
When he communicated with his son Yong Ming alone, he clearly told Yong Ming that although he was a little weak in energy due to illness and did not read the management regulations formulated by Yong Ming carefully, he believed that the management regulations he drafted must be
The result of carefully observing the actual situation.
After the promulgation and implementation of this regulation, it is possible to change the Yong family's office style and improve work efficiency.
Seeing that his father confirmed his idea, Yong Ming was very excited and very happy.
But what his father said next made Yong Ming deeply moved and fell into deep thought.
My father's original words were, "Ming'er, I will not approve this report to apply for the promulgation of regulations. I will return it to you now, take it back and keep it safe. After I go, you can promulgate it in the form of your own order."
, let all ministries implement it accordingly.”
After saying this, my father stopped talking about it and started talking to Yong Ming about other things.
After Yong Ming had a good chat with his father for a while, he saw that his father's energy was a little low, so he asked Shi Zheng and others who were responsible for taking care of his father to take good care of him, and then he left his father's residence and resigned first.
He was very filial and wanted to stay with his father and take good care of him, but the reality did not allow him to do so.
This is because after his father felt ill, he asked Yong Ming to act as the agent for the Yong family affairs.
Although all matters that require approval need to be signed by Yongming's father for final approval or disapproval after Yongming signs the signature, in fact Yongming is already acting as the head of the Yong clan.
Although he cannot always be with his father and worries about his father's condition when dealing with affairs, Yong Ming's heart is always at ease as long as his father is around.
Unfortunately, this situation did not last long. Three months after his illness gradually declined, Yong Ming's father eventually died of multiple organ failure at his residence.
Even though Yong Ming invited a friend from Shanghai who was a military doctor at the U.S. Consulate in China, and brought the best medicines and a diagnosis and treatment team to diagnose and treat his father's condition, he was unable to save his father's life.
The moment Yong Ming saw his father stop breathing, he was so grief-stricken that he almost fainted.
With the comfort of elders and friends in the clan, Yong Ming, who was deeply in grief, gradually controlled his emotions.
After reluctantly adjusting his emotions, under the auspices of the Yong clan's "Zong Zheng Chu" and "Ceremony Department", the deceased old patriarch's mourning hall was decorated and the memorial service began.
At the same time, in view that the position of the patriarch of the Yong clan cannot be vacant, a ceremony was held immediately in the Yong clan's ancestral hall for Yong Ming to take over the position of patriarch of the Yong clan.
Witnessed by the most senior members of the Yong clan and the heads of various ministries and departments, they knelt down in front of the memorial tablets of the Yong clan's ancestors and read out the oath of Yong Ming to protect the clan with due diligence and abide by the family laws of their ancestors, and officially succeeded him as the Yong clan.
The patriarch of the clan.
Later, Yong Ming, surrounded by everyone, sat in the main hall of Yong's ancestral hall, a large Northern Song Dynasty-style chair carved from red sandalwood and decorated with "dragon and cypress branches" specially designed for the patriarch.
Above, I accepted the kneeling worship and congratulations from the most senior members of the clan, heads of various ministries and clan representatives.
At this point, Yong Ming became the new patriarch of the Yong clan, recognized and supported by the clan.
The Yong clan, which has the blood of the Song Dynasty royal family, ushered in a young clan leader with grand ideals and ambitions in the new century.
From then on, the Yong family entered a new era under the leadership of Yong Ming and opened a new stage of development.
This is a severe test for the Yong family and Yong Ming.
For the Yong family, they have their own traditions, inherent styles and habits of doing things. Yong Ming must learn to adapt and provide strong guidance with understanding.
If we want to sum it up, it would be in line with the artistic conception expressed in the poem "Half an acre of square pond is open, and the skylight and cloud shadows are lingering together. I ask the canal how clear it is? It has a source of living water."
The current situation in the Yong clan is that many years of abundant food and clothing have made some clan members content with the status quo and not thinking about making progress. They are unwilling to engage in the slightest innovation and changes and are willing to make changes.
For Yu Yongming, in the face of some old and deep-rooted traditions, under the new social and historical background, if he wants to forge ahead and innovate the old, he must consider the difficulties he will encounter and the resulting consequences.
