When the meeting was over, Su Ze said to Father Xiaoyan:
"Mr. Xiaoyan, from tomorrow onwards, you will no longer work in Shibo Company."
Eunuch Xiaoyan was horrified. He stammered, "Grand Governor, did you do something wrong?"
Su Ze shook his head and said: "From tomorrow onwards, you will take up a post in the Governor's Mansion. I will appoint you as the Counselor of the Governor's Mansion, ranking in the sixth rank."
Eunuch Xiaoyan raised his head in surprise. Did he get a promotion?
Positive sixth grade! ? You must know that Eunuch Tao's previous promotion to the Shipping Department was only to the fifth rank. For eunuchs, the sixth rank was already a very high position.
The Counselor of the Metropolitan Government is a position close to the core of the Metropolitan Government.
But can I do it myself? Eunuch Xiaoyan was at his wits end again, he said:
"A low-ranking official is just a disabled person. How can he hold such a confidential position?"
Su Ze said: "What's the matter? In Fujian and Zhejiang, we only have superiors and subordinates, not masters and slaves."
"The reason why I promoted you to an official today is to ask you to summarize this set of rules of procedure and write them into a book."
Eunuch Xiaoyan pointed at himself in surprise and asked, "Me? Write a book?"
Su Ze said: "I will also send people to assist you. This is not a book that tells you big principles, but a book that teaches everyone how to hold meetings."
It turns out that this is the case, and Eunuch Xiaoyan finally feels a little confident.
"How did you come up with the idea of having a meeting like this?"
When it came to his own job, Mr. Xiaoyan immediately became professional.
"After I took over the responsibility of my godfather and took charge of the Shipping Department, I have been very nervous for fear of making mistakes."
"Xiaguan does not have the prestige of the chief governor and godfather, and is not familiar with the business of the entire Shibo Division. Xiaguan thought of a common saying."
"Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang."
"So I thought of a way to organize a meeting for everyone to discuss and solve the problem."
Su Ze asked curiously: "How did you invent this method?"
Eunuch Xiaoyan said: "I originally thought we could have a meeting together and work together, but the effect of the first meeting was not good."
"The venue was in chaos. Everyone started arguing while talking, and they almost started fighting in the end."
Su Ze thought that some meetings in the future would end in personal attacks, or even turn into unrestricted fighting scenes.
Eunuch Xiaoyan said: "So I went back and thought about it for a long time, and finally made two rules. One is to take turns to speak, limit the time, and no one can interrupt the speech. The other is to discuss the matter on the matter, only discuss the topic itself, and never discuss the speaker's motivations. , and absolutely no personal attacks.”
Su Ze put his hands on his hands and said happily: "Good! Mr. Xiao Yan is a great talent!"
Eunuch Xiaoyan said quickly: "Xiaguan is not a great talent. In order to hold a good meeting, Xiaguan tried repeatedly, and finally set these rules, and then promoted them with stumbling for a long time, and finally achieved the current results."
"In addition, I also rely on my colleagues. My subordinates all know that they are stupid. Every discussion takes a long time and they are not as good as those adults, so they can only use some stupid methods."
Su Ze said quickly: "Eunuch Xiaoyan, please summarize it and write it into a book. Then I need you to promote this meeting method in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and other places. This is not a stupid way, it is the foundation of a career!"
Eunuch Xiaoyan didn't expect that the method he came up with to hold meetings would be highly praised by Su Ze. He quickly thanked Su Ze and said that he would sum up and write a book.
On the way back to the Governor's Mansion, Su Ze couldn't help but reflect that he still underestimated his fellow travelers.
Father-in-law Xiaoyan's set of procedures is almost the same as the famous "Robert's Rules of Procedure" in management before he traveled through time.
Robert's Rules of Procedure are a set of methods for holding meetings summarized by Robert from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
This method is widely used in various meetings and discussion situations, and is highly praised by many famous politicians.
After the Revolution of 1911, Sun Wen personally translated and popularized this set of procedures in the country.
Su Ze certainly knew that there was no perfect solution in this world.
Robert's rules of procedure also have their shortcomings, such as long meetings, long deliberations, and low decision-making efficiency.
Decision-making results are often the result of compromises between multiple parties and are not as far-reaching as the strategic thinking of elites making decisions alone.
In Su Ze's view, Robert's rules of procedure are not applicable to all occasions. When making military strategic decisions or strategic development planning, these rules restrict too much.
But in daily department work and multi-party interest consultation, this set of discussion methods is quite good.
In most yamen, the daily work is the same as that of the municipal shipping department, mostly small daily tasks. On the contrary, it is more suitable to promote this set of rules at the grassroots level.
Su Ze also reflected on himself that a vigorous social change, in addition to the explosive development of technology, also requires new systems and new management methods.
As a time traveler, I pay more attention to the development of science and technology, but forget about the development of management.
[Discovered the skill "Administration", do you want to learn it? 】
Su Ze was stunned. God's administration is also a life skill?
Well, it’s not surprising that [Firearm Manufacturing] and [Shooting] are also life skills, and [Administration] is also a life skill.
"study!"
[The administrative knowledge possessed by the host was detected, and the final evaluation was Lv4, 1/400]
During the trip to Shibo Division, Su Ze gained a talent and a skill. Su Ze was very satisfied.
Japanese country, Meinong country.
On the castle tower, a middle-aged man wearing a samurai uniform was playing with the three immortal coins in his hand.
If we want to say which two countries in East Asia have the most entangled relationship, it has been China and Japan since ancient times.
The most entangled relationship between the two countries is the economic relationship between the two countries.
The Japanese country did not have decent coinage technology and had always lacked a reliable universal currency.
Because of the large casting volume and good casting quality, Yongle Tongbao of the Ming Dynasty quickly became the most popular currency in Japan.
Even since the Iwami Silver Mine was mined, due to the small size of Japan's local economy, the major names were naturally unwilling to use silver as a common currency, so they relied more on the copper coins of the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty was also very short of currency. A large amount of silver from the Japanese country flowed into the Ming Dynasty. Silver soon became the main currency of the Ming Dynasty. After Zhang Juzheng's whip, silver was designated as legal tender.
The use of conjugated currencies between the two countries has to be said to be a very strange phenomenon.
Looking at the exquisite Three Immortals Coin, the middle-aged man called his retainer.
A monkey-like warrior walked in quickly, and the Japanese daimyo said:
"Find the best weaver to embroider the Three Immortals Coin on the military flag of our Oda family!"
"Your command, Master!"
Zhejiang.
After being rescued by Su Ze, Su Ze did not restrict Hu Zongxian's freedom, nor did he let him go to Fujian immediately.
Su Ze just asked people to protect Hu Zongxian and let him stay in Zhejiang.
After Hu Zongxian was rescued, his hair and beard all turned white. He put down all government affairs and took several aides to travel around Zhejiang.
In addition, Hu Zongxian's "tour group" also included Tan Lun, the governor of Zhejiang appointed by the Ming Dynasty.
Tan Lun originally fought against the Japanese with Qi Jiguang in Fujian. Later, as a pawn of Qingliu to restrain Hu Zongxian, Tan Lun was transferred to Zhejiang as governor.
However, compared with the wily Hu Zongxian, Tan Lun's political struggle ability is still a little weaker.
Moreover, the governor of Zhejiang Province was the superior of the governor of Zhejiang Province, so Tan Lun had been suppressed by Hu Zongxian before and had almost no real power.
Lin Deyang led troops into Hangzhou and arrested officials in Hangzhou, including Tan Lun.
Tan Lun was also a famous anti-Japanese general. In Su Ze's historical timeline, after Tan Lun finished fighting the Japanese in the southeast, he went north with Qi Jiguang to rectify Jiliao's military affairs.
During his tenure as governor of Jiliao, Tan Lun built 3,000 defensive towers between Juyongguan and Shanhaiguan, greatly strengthening the defense of Northeast China.
Although Tan Lun is not as famous in history as Hu Zongxian and Qi Jiguang Yu Dayou, among the civil servants during the Jiawan period, Tan Lun's military ability was definitely one of the best.
Tan Lun was an honest official, and Su Ze did not make things difficult for him. He allowed him to move freely in Zhejiang, nor did he forcefully recruit him.
However, it is definitely impossible for Hu Zongxian and Tan Lun to leave Zhejiang. Their families are also in Hangzhou. They are both smart people and naturally understand their current situation.
"Tan Zili, since you arrived in Zhejiang, you haven't had a good look at the mountains and rivers of Zhejiang, have you?"
Hu Zongxian climbed a hill and looked at Lanke Mountain in the distance, and couldn't help but say to Tan Lun.
Tan Lun's mood was much more complicated than Hu Zongxian's.
Yan Dang and Hu Zongxian finally fell. When Tan Lun was preparing to show his ambitions in Zhejiang, Su Ze came again.
Tan Lun and his old superior and old rival fell into the hands of Su Ze.
Compared with Hu Zongxian, who let himself go to enjoy the mountains and rivers, Tan Lun was very depressed along the way.
Tan Lun was a well-established official in the Qing Dynasty. He was only forty-two years old at this time. It was the prime of life for an official. Naturally, it was impossible for him to take care of himself in old age like Hu Zongxian.
Being captured this time was also a huge stain on Tan Lun's political career. Now he is "hanging out" with Hu Zongxian again. Even if he returns to the capital, with the emperor's character, Tan Lun's career will be over.
Tan Lun was naturally depressed no matter what he thought, and he was looking sad all the way.
"Tan Zili, come and see this rotten Keshan!"
After Hu Zongxian's repeated invitations, Tan Lun finally climbed up the hillside and overlooked the magnificent scenery of Lanke Mountain. Tan Lun was also attracted by this beautiful scenery.
"It's a pity that this great mountain and river fell into the hands of thieves!"
Tan Lun just felt relaxed and happy for a while, but couldn't help but say.
Hu Zongxian laughed and said to a scribe wearing a Confucian shirt next to him:
"Juzhang Mountain Man, with such beautiful scenery, do you have any poems?"
Shen Mingchen, a native of Juzhang Mountain, was a famous and prolific poet in the Ming Dynasty. He was once Hu Zongxian's staff. Looking at the magnificent and beautiful Lanke Mountain, Shen Mingchen opened his mouth, but did not say a word.
Tan Lun also knew Shen Mingchen's poetic talent. He once wrote thirty poems a day. Regardless of the quality, he was a very productive poet.
Shen Mingchen paused for a while, then suddenly raised his hands and said to Hu Zongxian:
"Budang, I want to serve as a minister."
Hu Zongxian touched his beard without any reaction, but Tan Lun said sharply: "You want to be a thief!?"
Shen Mingchen, like Xu Wei, was a failed imperial examination contestant. He helped Hu Zongxian fight against the Japanese and hoped to enter an official career through this path.
With the fall of Hu Zongxian, Shen Mingchen's dream of an official career also shattered, but now there is a turning point.
Su Ze's "Ling for Seeking Talent" spread to Zhejiang, but most scholars still had a wait-and-see attitude.
After all, it had been so many years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and Su Ze's occupation of Fujian and Zhejiang was seen by many as taking advantage of a weak point, without any major achievements.
In the battle of Zhenjiang, although the imperial court's record was not good, it still saved Yangzhou.
Shen Mingchen said: "On the way, Bu Tang and Tan Zili have seen it. Are the people of Zhejiang better off under the rule of the imperial court, or are they better off under the rule of Governor Su?"
Tan Lun was at a loss for words. Along the way, everyone was traveling in the mountains and rivers. They also saw the scenes of the people in Zhejiang.
Both Hu Zongxian and Tan Lun know very well what Zhejiang was like before.
Under Su Ze's rule, just by abolishing exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the lives of the people in Zhejiang immediately improved.
In addition, Su Ze encouraged industry and commerce. Zhejiang already had a strong foundation for industry and commerce, and some government-run workshops were also established, absorbing people who had originally lost their land.
Tan Lun is also a relatively upright official. He saw with his own eyes along the way, and he can't unconscionably say that people are not living well today.
Tan Lun became even more irritated and could only say:
"I, Tan Lun, have read the books of sages and will never be a thief!"
I'm short of 500 words. I'll make up for it tonight. I really can't hold it in anymore. Fat Bird apologizes!
