This kind of policy not only solves the lunch and meal problems for a large number of officials.
What’s more important is the effectiveness of actions!
It should be noted that any official restaurant that owns this business will often have a better reputation and a more prosperous business because of this business. Many wealthy families want to be the first to use the same dishes as the Daqian ministers, so that a kind of reputation has arisen. It's a subscription business.
It's because on which day the Shangshu stall is served, servants from powerful dignitaries will come to order this kind of takeout in the evening.
There are even rumors that His Highness the Crown Prince himself will randomly choose a main store that participates in outsourcing and have lunch delivered directly to Xi Zhengdian.
Many of the store's helpers kept saying that they had delivered meals to Donggong, and such meals were basically expensive but not available.
I have to say that Xiao Yi's method is extremely clever.
A lunch can win over not only the hearts of officials, but also the hearts of merchants.
In the past, it was always said that they were scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, and the status of merchants was very low. But now, it is really much easier.
Since the emergence of imperial merchants such as the Qin family and the Wang family, the status of merchants has also been slightly improved.
Daqian traded with foreign states such as Meng Yuan and Bei Yan, so that the development of commerce had exceeded that of Xiao Di's thirteenth year in Zhenyuan.
For Xiao Yi, he knows very well that the development of a country is inseparable from business, and only the development of business can enhance the development of the country to a greater extent.
However, he also hates those businessmen who pursue fame and fortune. For the sake of small immediate interests, they forget the justice of the country and the nation, and he cannot tolerate businessmen who evade taxes.
It can be said that the tasks on the Yushitai side are still relatively heavy and complicated.
Fortunately, Fang Xuan is still very capable, and he has managed Yushitai into an official office that can truly reflect justice, fairness and justice.
In the evening of that day, it was raining and snowing non-stop. The censor Zhongcheng Fangxuan returned home from the public house. He was thinking about whether he should let his family order a piece of sweet and sour fish that he had used for lunch. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the house, he smelled the smell of the fish. The nephew came to report that Lou Shide, a family friend of the Fang family and a nephew of the Wang family in Jiangning, came after lunch and had been sitting there all afternoon.
Fang Zhongcheng was startled for a moment, then realized it immediately, and asked his nephew to order the sweet and sour fish while he quickly asked Lou Shide to come over.
It turned out that Fang Zhongcheng, a family friend, was a Jinshi in the 18th year of Zhenyuan.
Just because he couldn't stand Li Linfu's control of the court, he wrote a memorial directly impeaching Li Linfu for causing trouble in the court and stating Li Linfu's ten major crimes.
As a result, the memorial was taken away before it was even delivered to His Majesty's desk.
Due to the power of the Lou family in Jiangning, Li Linfu did not kill him directly, but arranged for Lou Shide to be the county magistrate in Jiangning.
He worked for seven years, and it was not until last year when Li Linfu was tried and executed that Lou Shide was slightly promoted.
As for Lou Shide, why was Xiao Yi not discovered immediately?
In fact, there were more people at the beginning, and Lou Shide was just a county magistrate. In addition, because of him, the Lou family has not been having a good time these years.
Li Linfu is still very petty.
Because of this, Lou Shide lacked someone to lead him.
After Fang Xuan was promoted to censor Zhongcheng, he went to Longyou Road to rectify the local officials. After returning to the capital, he became a capital inspector again, and then he investigated the tax evasion problem of merchants in Daqian.
It can be said that I am extremely busy.
Recently, I have been able to relax a little bit because I have become proficient in my business.
I also remembered that among my family friends, there was a person who was not afraid of power and impeached Li Linfu, but was later demoted and also brought trouble to his family.
Only then did he make some suggestions to Di Yan, the Minister of Civil Service, and then recommended Lou Shide to His Highness the Crown Prince.
After Xiao Yi saw the name of such a person in the letter at the Anxi Protectorate, he was still a little happy. After all, he was also a capable minister. It just depends on how he wants to use him.
No matter what, such a person is better than Li Linfu, better than those mediocre people who do nothing.
He can use upright ministers like Wang Jiefu. Now he is also one of the local chief officials in Longyou Road, and he manages Longyou Road in an orderly manner, which makes Xiao Yi feel relieved.
When I first saw the name Lou Shide, I actually couldn't remember it at all. It wasn't until Fang Xuan's recommendation that Xiao Yi had a little image of it, and then he planned to promote him.
It was precisely because of the recommendation of the Censor Zhongcheng Fangxuan that Lou Shide was able to enter the court as an official. Once he entered the capital, he directly entered the Ministry of Personnel.
Therefore, in every sense of the secular officialdom, this person can be regarded as a figure in the imperial censor, the Prime Minister Xuan, or the kind of person who serves as a political resource for each other.
It is normal for this person to visit the imperial censor Zhongcheng Fangxuan after entering the capital.
The two parties met in the hall, served hot tea with ginger juice and milk skin, and took their seats. Lou Shide was now over thirty years old, but his temperament was not that of a scholarly family, and he had the air of a mature and steady gentleman.
The two chatted for a few words, without falling into common idioms. They just talked about the scenery of their hometown, local anecdotes, weather, seasons, literature and poetry.
However, all things considered, the two of them are now standard bureaucrats, and they are on the same political party with each other, so they can't hide from business matters.
In the end, Fang Xuan couldn't help but wanted to know about Jiangdong's current situation.
"Some time ago, I had just assumed the post of Censor Zhongcheng, and I had to go to Longyou Road to inspect the officials. Later, I went to Beijing to conduct inspections, and then to conduct a census of merchants."
"I have only heard about the situation in Jiangdong, but I don't know much about it."
"How is Jiangdong doing now?"
Lou Shide thought for a moment and replied: "I want Uncle Shi to know that it was difficult for Jiangdong in the past to be in the hands of the Dong thieves. The number of corrupt officials in the local area has gradually increased. Officials are protecting each other, collusion between officials and businessmen, and the people are living in dire straits."
"However... since His Highness King Yan defeated the Dong thief, in Jiangdong, just like Long You Dao, he punished the officials and killed them like rivers of blood."
"Now that the officials govern the Qingming Festival, the people can live a good life."
Fang Xuan nodded, noncommittal, and became more and more dignified. He said, "His Royal Highness, King Yan, is also a man of literary and military ability."
After hearing this, Lou Shide opened his eyes slightly and looked at Fang Xuan.
He had just arrived in the capital and was really not familiar with the capital. He was still thinking about whether he should make a memorial to explain the situation in Jiangdong.
Sooner or later there will be a battle between Prince Daqian and His Highness King Yan.
To be honest, Lou Shide really didn't want to see such a situation. A prince who was a civil and martial arts supervising prince saved Daqian from crumbling. It can be said that he has the ability to save the world and revive Daqian.
His Royal Highness King Yan is also inferior. Compared with Prince Daqian, he is already on par.
If these two people fight, I am afraid that only officials like them, as well as the people of Daqian, and even Guo Zuo who will be affected by Daqian will be injured.
