Thousands of years to the east, Chang'an to the west.
Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was built according to traditional planning ideas and architectural styles. The entire huge city consisted of an outer city, an imperial city, a palace city, a forbidden garden, and a city. It was the largest capital city in the history of the world. All industries in the city are prosperous, palaces are located in close proximity, and the population at its peak exceeded one million.
The prosperous and prosperous Tang Dynasty is beautiful!
Buzhengfang on the west side of the imperial city is adjacent to the West Market.
Fang Jun rode a tall horse and looked at a simple mansion in front of him.
Li Yifu, the magistrate of Wannian County, accompanied him, as well as Cheng Wuting and other officials from the Jingzhao Prefecture, as well as dozens of generals from the Buqu family, cheering in front and supporting behind him, showing their majesty.
Li Yifu frowned and said cautiously: "This house is the ancestral home of a merchant named Zhao. Because he colluded with bandits to murder him when he was doing business on Jiannan Road, he was executed after the incident and all his property was confiscated. . The title deed of the house is in Wannian County Government and can be transferred to the Marquis at any time, but is this a bit crude?"
His Majesty Li Er's style of doing things has always been to make the horse run and not eat grass...
It’s not that he really doesn’t let you eat grass, it’s just that he doesn’t care and you have to find grass by yourself. If you find it, you will be full. If you cannot find it, you will be hungry. He thinks this is a manifestation of ability. Your superiors need to prepare everything for you, so what else do you need?
Fang Jun is naturally not afraid of running out of food.
It was not difficult for him to build the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen, which only had a few shelves. After finding Li Yifu and telling him the situation, he wanted to find a controlled building in Wannian County as the residence of Jingzhao Mansion's Yamen. Li Yifu deeply felt that Fang Jun's "grace of giving clothes" when he was rushing to take the exam in the past, so he naturally did not refuse.
Fang Jun only said that Li Yifu was simple and unimpressive.
"The prestige of a yamen is not established by luxurious buildings, but by the people in the yamen and what kind of things these people do!"
The yamen of Jinyiwei is just an inconspicuous building in an alley, but you can still have power and fame all over the world. Who wouldn't be frightened and frightened when you get here?
This is the temperament of a yamen!
Of course, Fang Jun didn't want to make Jingzhao Mansion like Jin Yiwei, who kept strangers away...
"I will be taught by my subordinates."
Li Yifu was sincerely convinced.
For Fang Jun, he is not only grateful, but also sincerely admires him. If you look at someone's behavior, it often looks like he is acting haphazardly, but in the end he is strategizing every step of the way. How often does his opponent not become disgraced?
That’s the thing!
Li Yifu deeply felt that his background was shallow, and he was constrained by his ability to move in the officialdom. On the one hand, he did not have a strong backer, and on the other hand, his abilities were still lacking.
And the benefactor in front of him who had just become his immediate boss was a good example for him to learn from. This seemingly casual but actually thoughtful style of doing things was really to his liking. If he could learn from Fang Jun's skills, how could he worry about getting promoted and making a fortune?
If Fang Jun knew that this traitorous minister wanted to learn from him how to be an official, and then bring disaster to the world and be infamy for thousands of years, he would not be able to beat this traitorous minister to death now to avoid ruining his reputation...
For Li Yifu, he can use it, but he will never trust it.
This traitorous minister, who has been famous throughout the ages, is really a man who is good at maneuvering and is a mother if he has breasts. He has no sense of shame and no character at all. How can he be given a heavy responsibility?
When a tree is about to decay, insects will grow on it; when a country is about to perish, demons will grow on it.
If he accidentally cultivates a generation of traitors, wouldn't he be infamy for eternity? Li Yifu, who had just become the county magistrate, would not let him kill him, but he would closely monitor him. Once Li Yifu revealed his traitorous character, he would not show mercy.
At this stage, Fang Jun believes that Li Yifu will be a sharp knife, which is perfect for dealing with the Guanlong Group. The so-called "fighting fire with fire" is...
"How many days will it take to clean up?" Fang Jun asked.
Li Yifu said with a smile: "No one had touched anything when it was sealed up, so the big items are all there and in good condition. This family has a lot of money, and their ancestors have also been prosperous. The items are of high quality, and they bought some odds and ends. The household items and the four treasures of the study can be arranged and divided into office areas, and you can move in in three or two days."
Fang Jun nodded.
Why can a person have the opportunity to become a traitor? Because he was more capable than most honest officials, the emperor was still willing to reuse him even though he knew he was a bad guy.
For no other reason than to do something to save worry...
"Purchase it as soon as possible. The required money will be transferred from Wannian County's accounts first. It will be transferred to you after the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen is operational. Is there any problem?"
"Of course there is no problem, but Lord Marquis, you have to give me a regulation. What standards should I follow to purchase it?"
For the opening of a new government office, all the necessary material resources should be purchased by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. However, Jingzhao Mansion is in a special situation. The Ministry of Civil Affairs, which is almost controlled by the Guanlong Group, may not give any support, so Fang Jun simply relies on his own efforts.
Anyway, after the Jingzhao Mansion was established, he did not intend to interfere too much with the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Civil Affairs. As for the office funds, he had to be self-sufficient, otherwise he would not be able to guarantee that these two big yamen would give him little shoes to wear.
How to find funds for oneself is the most basic ability in the officialdom of later generations.
If a leader cannot bring good benefits to his subordinates, who will want to follow you? Who would risk their lives to work for you when assigned by superiors?
As for how to find funds, this was not difficult in the Tang Dynasty where the rule of law was extremely imperfect. There were always a lot of good ideas...
*****
Two days later, officials began to settle in the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion.
Fang Jun summoned all the officials and held a meeting in a conference room opened on the side of the main hall.
Jingzhao Mansion is under the jurisdiction of Yongzhou Mu. Jingzhao Yintong is responsible for the affairs of the government. There are two Shaoyin people under him to assist in the affairs of the government. Under them are Si Lu, joining the army, Si Gong, Si Cang, Si Hu and other department officials. They are commonly known as "Xiao Liubu" , roughly equivalent to the functions of the six departments.
One of the two Shaoyin was Wei Dawu from Jingzhao, and the other was Linghu Cheng.
These two people, one from the Guanzhong Four surnames and the other from the Guanlong Group, help each other and check and balance each other. Under him were Si Lu who joined the army, Cheng Wuting, Si Gonghou Mo Chenwo, Sicang Pei Su, Si Hu Yuwenwei and other officials.
Fang Jun took the main seat and said in a deep voice: "Today you are all gathered together, and your Majesty has high hopes for the purpose of stabilizing the capital and prospering Chang'an. We should work together to repay the country's favor. If there is someone who does not seek his own government in his position, Even if you are willing to take advantage of the situation, you will be eaten inside and outside. Don’t blame me for not being kind to you! Don’t say that you didn’t predict what you said!”
Recently I have found this sentence particularly inspiring, as it is like the highest level warning. If anyone dares to insist on his own way, he will be killed with real swords and guns!
All the officials in the hall were shocked at the same time...
They all know Fang Jun, this guy is not just talking, he will punish you to death no matter what kind of Guanzhong family or Guanlong group you are if you piss him off! The Gu family in Jiangdong has been inherited for hundreds of years and has been dominant for generations. Wasn't it just that this person was wiped out overnight, and the whole family of heroes disappeared?
Everyone was wondering whether Jing Zhaoyin, who was as young as a junior in the family, was just giving a simple warning, or if he already had a conspiracy in his mind and was letting someone know that he wanted someone to take action...
Fang Jun looked around and saw everyone with serious faces, feeling satisfied.
At least no one dares to think that he, Jing Zhaoyin, is not a cadre...
"Jingzhao Mansion is a living thing. It has never happened before. Everything is moving forward through exploration. Where there are places that break away from the past and forge ahead, there are naturally places where there are many disadvantages of being conservative. Your Majesty's determination to reform is to get rid of the past. We must take note of the backwardness of the old system and work hard to serve His Majesty! Therefore, the county soldiers and policemen in Jingzhao Mansion will establish a new yamen called the patrol room, which will be run by Si Lu joining the army. , one should be responsible for detecting thieves, maintaining public security, criminal interrogation and other duties, and be directly responsible to the officer."
The lowly officials looked at each other.
I knew you were going to seize power, but I didn’t expect that you would seize him so urgently and so hard!
It should be noted that the most important place established by the Jingzhao Prefecture to reflect its authority is that it does not need to accept the above-mentioned restrictions like ordinary states and counties. Death penalty cases must finally go to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishments before they can be convicted. Instead, all evidence can be proven through interrogation. Confirmed criminals can be directly sentenced to death!
Such important authority should have been shared among the senior officials of the entire Jingzhao Mansion. Now that Fang Jun has created such a "patrol room", it is equivalent to grabbing this power in his hands, and it will no longer be anyone else's business...
In this case, wouldn't Fang Jun be able to cover the sky with one hand?
