After talking about several things about Japan, Liu Xin took the opportunity to report on a major event that she had started preparing for shortly after arriving in Beijing, which was the issue of a highly pragmatic staff team.
As Jinghua's power has expanded rapidly in the past few years, Gao Pragmatic's work pressure has increased. Although he has maintained a certain amount of exercise for a long time, although his body can persist, there is really no way to do it in terms of time.
Everyone only has twelve hours in a day. No matter how rationally he arranges it, he cannot conjure up twenty-four hours to use. Therefore, sooner or later, a staff team must be established, and the sooner it is established, the better.
A highly pragmatic staff team cannot be formed casually, nor can it be entered casually.
Shaoxing masters are already very popular in this era, but it is easy to find a few full-time masters in Shaoxing. Unfortunately, the masters of this era may not be able to keep up with the "rhythm" of Jinghua, and their majors are not so relevant.
At this time, the Shaoxing masters were mainly engaged in official communication and other work for the officials. Some of them also studied criminal names and household affairs. Although they were very professional, they did not meet the needs of high pragmatism.
This time Liu Xin didn't say much, she just took out a list and showed it to Gao Pangshi. Gao pragmatic took a look at the list and found that it was a draft written in charcoal. It was written in simplified Chinese characters in a modern format from left to right. There were even parentheses in it:
Jinghua Secretariat:
Secretary-General: Liu Xin
Business Secretary: Cao Ke (disciple, courtesy name Shouxin, Cao Ganzi), Ma Yi (former name Shunfu, eldest son of Ma Ziqiang)
Military Secretary: Liu Xin (concurrently), Erdemutu (student, named Shouxue, the eldest son of Bhan Nagyi, Army, trainee), Ruan Fuyuan (student, named Shouzhong, the sixth son of Ruan Huang, Navy, trainee)
Industry and Mining Secretary: Liu Xin (concurrently)
Financial Secretary: Gao Wuzhong (brother, apprenticed under Gao Guoyan, trainee)
Intelligence Secretary: Gao Qi (nephew, Gao Wuben’s second son, trainee)
Unemployed trainee secretaries: Gao Wuzheng (concubine), Gao Wuruo (concubine)
This list looks very irregular and is obviously a draft. However, Gao Pragmatic has not seen such a format for a long time, and he is actually a little emotional.
In addition, there is a very interesting thing about this draft. It seems to be written from a highly pragmatic identity perspective. For example, when writing about Cao Ke, the note says "disciple". The remarks about Erde Mutu and Ruan Fuyuan also have the word "disciple", and the teacher of the three of them is none other than Gao Pragmatism.
Another example is Gao Wuzhong, Gao Wuzheng, and Gao Wuruo, who also noted "brother" and "concubine" respectively. They also made notes from a highly pragmatic standpoint. As for Gao Qi, because he is the second son of Gao Wuben (the one in Jinyiwei), Gao Pragmatic's cousin, he is noted as "cousin".
This staff group is directly called the "Secretariat" by Liu Xin, and the composition of its personnel is obviously inclined to those who have a close relationship with Gao Pragmatic, either relatives or disciples.
Needless to say, relatives, and since there is no such thing as "disciples attacking the first assistant teacher Zhang Juzheng" in this world, it is still considered impossible for students of this era to "rebellion".
The only person who seems to be an exception is Ma Yi. This person is Ma Ziqiang's eldest son. He seems to have nothing to do with Gao Pragmatic. At most, from the perspective of business cooperation between Ma Ziqiang's family and Jinghua, he can be regarded as an ally on one level. .
actually not. In addition to being Ma Ziqiang's eldest son, Ma Yi is also Zhang Siwei's son-in-law.
Considering that Zhang Siwei's two sons, Zhang Jiazheng and Zhang Taizheng, were both Jinshi (the second son, Taizheng, was in the same year as Gao Pragmatic, and although Jiazheng was the eldest son, he was delayed for three years due to illness and became a Jinshi in the 11th year of Wanli), he definitely cannot come. Jinghua's secretariat, so he used his son-in-law to enter the secretariat.
This setup was very clever, allowing Gao Pangshi to win over the Jin Party and the Shaanxi Party in the court at the same time. These two parties were not only the political allies of the Practical School, but also the base of Beijing's commercial allies in the north.
Using Ma Yi to strengthen the relationship between politics and business shows that Liu Xin was very careful in inspecting personnel during this period.
In this regard, Gao Pragmatic did not hesitate to praise: "Ma Shunfu is a very good candidate. You are determined."
Liu Xin chuckled and joked: "Although you don't pay me a salary, Jinghua Pharmaceutical's dividends are still quite generous. I have to show something."
Looking at her attitude, Gao Jingshi knew that she didn't want to take credit, but Gao Jingshi thought about it and asked, "Is it necessary to set up this military secretary...?"
"Yes, but military issues... Well, to a certain extent, I don't have to use you two disciples." Liu Xin said: "I guess you can see that using them is actually a political issue. matter. Of course, I am referring to the political aspect of Beijing."
Erdemutu is the eldest son of Bhan Naji, and he will most likely inherit the throne of King Shunyi of the Ming Dynasty in the future (including the throne of the Great Khan of the "Ming Dynasty and the Golden Kingdom", the right-wing Mongolian Tumote 30,000-household Chechen Khan, etc.).
In other words, he has a great right to the Ming Dynasty's current nominal and de facto vassal Tumed (including the Ordos tribe), and there is a high probability that he will control Tumed's power in the future.
Then, if he has a deep understanding of Jinghua's army strength, especially its strength in the north of the Ming Dynasty, it is basically impossible for him to be skeptical about "whether to maintain surrender to the Ming Dynasty." Besides, since he has joined the Jinghua Secretariat, he will definitely know that the Ming Dynasty's military strength has significantly improved under the high pragmatic reforms, which will further affect his attitude towards the Ming Dynasty.
As for Ruan Fuyuan, Gao Jingshi knew that Liu Xin nominated him to the secretariat as a representative of the southern Xinjiang local faction.
There is nothing that can be done about it. Jinghua’s rule in southern Xinjiang has so far relied on puppet regimes, and there is not only one puppet regime in southern Xinjiang. If each puppet regime brought in one person, the Secretariat would probably have to Overcrowded.
Besides, to enter the Secretariat, you first need to ensure that the person has a firm attitude, which requires that the family or force to which he belongs must be inseparable from Jinghua. This is a matter of interests. Although it is related to personal conduct, it has little to do with it.
Just like no one can betray their own class, the principle that the butt determines the head is correct most of the time.
Ruan Huang was the first among Annan's surrendered generals to "completely surrender". During the period when Beijing was conquering Siam and conquering Cambodia, he completely surrendered his own troops.
Judging from this incident and his other actions at the time, this person was quite "considerate of the overall situation and aware of the general situation." Therefore, Gao Pragmatic not only gave him the position of commander of the Phnom Penh garrison to erect the city gate, but also gave his son Ruan Fuyuan, who stayed with him as a disciple, the nickname "Shou Zhong".
Gao Pragmatic's three disciples were all given nicknames by him. Cao Ke means "Shou Xin", Erde Mutu means "Shou Xue", and Ruan Fuyuan means "Shou Zhong". Of course, each has its own meaning.
According to Liu Xin's intention, since Erdemutu, a Mongolian, is used as the "Army Secretary" to represent the interests of the northern faction, then it is obviously in line with the use of Ruan Fuyuan, an Annanite, as the "Navy Secretary" to represent the interests of the southern faction. Balanced.
The financial secretary is a very critical position, especially for a giant like Jinghua. Financial issues are particularly important and it is almost impossible to leave it to others - at least for now. Therefore, Liu Xin proposed that Gao Wuzhong, the youngest brother of Gao Jingshi, take up the position, but In fact, she made this arrangement according to Gao Pragmatic's wishes.
Gao Wuzhong was only fifteen years old. When he was studying in his early years, Gao Pangshi discovered that he preferred mathematics and was not very interested in articles. Gao Jingshi thought that he had no hope in getting a job. Although the Gao family still had a lot of kindness to inherit, Gao Jingshi was not willing to let him be an idle official, so he arranged for Gao Guoyan to teach him when he was in his teens.
Gao Guoyan is the financial director of Jinghua and the president of Jinghua Bank. He is also the executive president of the Federal Reserve Bank of China. He is the number one financial executive of Jinghua Group. In the five years since Gao Wuzhong worked under him, he has made great progress even though he has not held a direct position. Liu Xin believed that Gao Pragmatic originally planned to use him in the financial aspect, so he had this arrangement of financial secretary.
In the clan society, as the youngest biological brother of Gao Pragmatic, his loyalty can be guaranteed. Even Liu Xin tried to think in terms of "don't hesitate to judge people with the greatest malice", and felt that at least as long as Gao Pragmatism was still there, there would be no problem with Gao Wuzhong's loyalty.
As for Intelligence Secretary Gao Qi, he is the second son of Gao Wuben, Gao Wuben's cousin and good old man. Gao Wuben is now the Tang Shangguan of Jinyiwei Nan Town Fusi. His eldest son will inherit his position in Jinyiwei in the future (but not necessarily the Tang Shangguan, which refers to inheriting the worldly position rather than the official position), so he cannot come to Gao Wuben. Here, only the second son can come.
The institution of Jinyiwei is divided into two towns and divisions, the north and the south. Different from the "Grand Governor of Jinyiwei" and "The Governor of Jinyiwei" (appointments will be made if there are suitable candidates, and they can be vacant if there are not), these two towns and divisions are Jinyiwei's. It is a permanent institution, but the North and South Zhenfu Divisions are not parallel institutions, but have their own departments.
Beizhen Fusi is a direct action agency. The orders issued by the emperor of the old Zhu family are basically completed by Beizhen Fusi. They are located all over the country, so they travel a lot.
Because they are sent by the emperor and have relatively great power, they are often flattered by officials from all over the place when they go to the local level. Even if the local officials have a higher position than them, they are usually called Shangchai.
Over time, this group of people became lawless. With Zhu Yuanzhang's support, they did not need to go through the Ministry of Justice to handle cases, so many officials were worried about offending Jin Yiwei.
Because of this, the Jin Yiwei did not abide by the law and were eventually reported. Zhu Yuanzhang simply destroyed this group of Jin Yiwei. After Zhu Di came to power, he still needed to monitor his officials, so he used Jin Yiwei again.
Zhu Di's period was special. The highest officer of Jinyiwei was actually himself. By the time of Zhu Jianshen, the power of Beizhen Fusi was further strengthened, and he could bypass the chief of Jinyiwei and directly return orders to the emperor.
It can be seen that the powerful faction in Jinyiwei is actually this group of people from Beizhen Fusi. They handle all cases assigned by the emperor directly and do not need to answer to anyone other than the emperor.
This kind of profession is really terrible, so the officialdom in the early Ming Dynasty was always in a state of trembling. Especially during the Hongwu and Yongle periods when father and son Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were in power, every official was in danger.
However, as we all know, the status of Jinyiwei began to decline due to the rise of Dongchang, Xichang and even the inner factory that suddenly appeared.
Later, the inner factory disappeared, and the west factory also disappeared, but the east factory always existed. Most of the time, Dongchang relied on his closer relationship with the emperor to dominate Jin Yiwei, which limited Jin Yiwei's power.
Even so, Beizhen Fusi's strength still exists objectively. In particular, when the top brass of Jinyiwei began to show the tendency of "benevolence to the children of civil servants", Jinyiwei's power began to show signs of recovery.
Today, Beizhen Fusi is in the hands of Wang Chonggu's grandson and Gao Pragmatic's relative Wang Zhizhen. Since Chen Ju, the admiral of Dongchang, was a pragmatic person, the restrictions on Wang Zhizhen were also very weak, and the power of Jinyiwei had increased significantly.
Nanzhen Fusi is generally not responsible for specific actions. It is equivalent to the Discipline Inspection Commission in Jinyiwei to a certain extent. Completely different from the North Town Fusi, the South Town Fusi is not responsible for going around the country to handle cases assigned by the emperor. Their most important function is to manage disciplinary issues within the Jinyiwei.
The reason why it was set up like this in the early years was that after the Jinyiwei family became dominant, all the officials in the court could not control them. If there is no authority to restrain this group of people at this time, then they will have to go to heaven.
"In the 17th year, the commander of the Jinyi Guards was changed to the third rank. In the 20th year, many of the Jinyi Guards were tortured illegally. They burned torture instruments, released them from prison, and sent them to the Ministry of Punishment for review. They ordered the inner and outer prisons to be returned to the Third Law Department, and the Jinyi Prison was dismissed.
It was restored during the reign of Emperor Chengzu. Fusi, Xunzengbei Town, specializes in imperial edicts and prisons. During the Chenghua period, a seal was engraved on it, and the prisoner was granted special access. It did not concern Bai Jinyi, and the Jinyi officials were not allowed to interfere. The old office was set up as Nanzhen Fusi, specializing in military craftsmanship. "
The professional military craftsman here does not refer to "military craftsman", it means internal management. What Nanzhen Fusi needs to do is to strengthen the discipline management of Jinyiwei.
It can be said that this job is not only arduous but also very easy to offend people. Because the people they have to manage are all powerful Jin Yiwei.
You know, the people in Beizhen Fusi are all direct action units. Once their work goes a little wrong, not only will they themselves be in trouble, but the people in Nanzhen Fusi will also suffer - how do you manage it? Internally, they produce such useless snacks?
Therefore, under normal circumstances, Nanzhen Fusi is basically a decoration in terms of management discipline. Unless some leader of the Jin Yiwei is about to fall, this group of people will stand up and explain his various crimes. Otherwise, they usually only dare to bully some small minions.
Later, I guess they were too bored and had to develop other projects. For example, they will also collect some intelligence, and sometimes even engage in research and development of military weapons.
However, because of Gao Jingshi's secret plan back then, although Wang Zhizhen, the current envoy of North Town, is very powerful, he does not dare to ignore the supervision of Gao Wuben, the envoy of South Town - who has a family name of Gao? Isn't the purpose of letting his cousin take control of Nansi just to look at his cousin Wang?
Since Gao Qi is the second son of Gao Wuben, he is of course very familiar with Jin Yiwei, and his relationship lies here. Using him as the "Intelligence Secretary" is equivalent to having direct contact with Jin Yiwei, which is more important than Gao Mo's Internal Affairs Department. convenient.
Of course, the intelligence secretary himself must be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, that is, Gao Mo, and this in turn allows the Ministry of Internal Affairs to indirectly utilize Jinyiwei's intelligence capabilities.
The world of family is so magical sometimes.
After looking at the list for a while, Gao Pingshi handed it back to Liu Xin and said: "Except for Ma Shunfu, everyone else is in Beijing, so let them come to see me tomorrow night. For Ma Shunfu, let Uncle Mo go Inform him to come over as soon as possible, and at the same time I will ask someone to inform my two cousins (Zhang Jiazheng and Zhang Taizheng, both officials in the capital) and tell them about this."
