Chapter 147: The First Confrontation
Chapter 147 The first confrontation
Zhao Ji has always been resolute in the business of maintaining his luxury, and these days, under his kind attention, the central administrative body of the Great Song Dynasty has begun to operate at an incredible speed. "Words * love * first * hair
Since the ministers of the two ministries basically did not have much objection to the candidates for the heads of the office, the metropolitan office was soon issued to the yamen on the same day, and the appointment of the officials of the office yamen began to be carried out in a tense manner, both openly and covertly.
Wang Xiu is the de facto person in charge, just like the director of the leading group office.
He was already busy preparing for the various departments of the yamen, but in the unsatisfactory areas, he did not have much authority to appoint ministers. Seeing that many children of the family and idle officials who came in through the door of important ministers made him very dissatisfied, but he was helpless, even Cai Jing was powerless.
This is an unspoken rule, you can't break it without a bottom line, so as to offend a large number of people, and the end of challenging the entire Shidaifu group is tragic.
To Wang Xiu's surprise, Zhao Ji summoned him in the Yanchun Hall of the Great Inner Houyuan when he returned to the Zhengshuo Dynasty, and the people who could be summoned here were not close ministers of his cronies, Wang Hao, Cai Yu and others, these two happened to be also present.
"Not bad." Zhao Ji probably finished reading Wang Xiu's recital, and was very satisfied with the office and the Lu Division. Not only do they conform to the ancestral law of decentralization and supervision, but they also seem to be able to balance the weight and responsibilities of the affairs of each department, especially the establishment of a strict reward and punishment system, so as to better arouse the enthusiasm of officials.
The most eye-catching thing is the bank setting, which he divides into three categories: industry and commerce, agriculture, and maritime, and is divided into business and venture capital, which is unheard of. Of course, the current stage is only the establishment of a commercial Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, after all, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China is quick to make money, and venture capital does not have the conditions for the time being, so he will not do it.
Wang Xiu smiled faintly, if Zhao Ji didn't say it well, it would be too mediocre. It took him several days to carefully consider and reduce the responsibilities and supervision mechanisms of the entire modern financial management institution and the modern administrative management institution, and in his own words: It is much more clever than the set of your Zhao Jiayizu and Taizong.
When Cai You took it over, his face was obviously very dissatisfied, Wang Xiu didn't tell him to go directly to Zhao Ji, although he was hurriedly summoned by Zhao Ji just after tidying up, and he didn't have time to communicate with him, but it also touched his nerves.
Wang Hao naturally took Cai You's thoughts in his eyes, and he said slowly: "The charter is well formulated, but there are two drawbacks in it. β
Zhao Ji looked at Wang Huang curiously and asked, "Say it quickly." β
Wang Xiu was a girl for a while, secretly scolding you for being a mediocre talent who only knows the wind and snow, and what kind of bird economy you know, talking nonsense here.
Wang Huang obviously didn't see Wang Xiu's disdain, and said in full spirit: "Your Majesty, the rewards and punishments of the public office and the bank are too strict, and the qualifications of officials are also restricted, and they have to be selected, and they must be proficient in arithmetic and business.
"It's a bit harsh." Zhao Ji trusts Wang Hao very much.
Cai You glanced at Wang Huang, and some dissatisfaction flashed in the depths of his eyes, but he still said: "I also think so, whether it is management selection or management, it is almost to the point where no one is available." β
Wang Xiu was anxious at that time, if he could say that the office could endure it, it was a macro management body, to put it bluntly, it was the prototype of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and ordinary positions could be filled by non-professional officials.
However, banks are absolutely, absolutely not, and as a financial institution that plays a leverage role in the world's economy, once it develops, it will play a pivotal role in the national economy, so how can it be managed by a layman, which is also too nonsense.
Of course, his trick is also to deal with human relationships, with clear conditions and reward and punishment regulations, and when the time comes, he can take the initiative in doing things.
"Your Majesty, the development of the bank has a great impact on the national economy and people's livelihood, and those who do not know how to do it must not be competent, once something causes losses, it is not something that the imperial court can bear." Wang Xiu did not say alarmist, saying that the economic crisis in the Great Song Dynasty was a bit excessive, but as long as there was commodity circulation, there would be an economic crisis, and it was by no means empty talk that affected the rise and fall of the dynasty.
Wang Hao smiled coldly and said, "Alarmist. β
Wang Xiu sneered at each other, and said resolutely: "Xianggong knows how many you get by adding one"
Wang Hao didn't think about it, and sneered: "Of course it's two, you don't know if you come here."
Cai You's face was complicated, his eyes looked at Wang Hao, he had a hunch, since Wang Xiu dared to ask such a mentally retarded question in front of Zhao Ji, he would never add one to two, he needed to wait and see, Wang Hao could compliment the Son of Heaven better than him, let this guy suffer a little and lose face, he was still happy to see it.
Although this group of fortunate ministers have helped each other, they are all based on interests, and they will never let go of the opportunity to dismantle the stage.
"It turns out that Xianggong only has this knowledge, no wonder Suzhou and Hangzhou Yingfeng Bureau can only offer millions of dollars to His Majesty." Wang Xiu's face was calm and his tone was very polite, but the sharpness between his words was like a knife.
Wang Hao's face turned pale suddenly, there was a ghost in his heart, Wang Xiu's words had several meanings, how could he not hear it, if he wanted to be more serious, he should be counted on his head for a bad debt, and this good head would be difficult to protect.
Zhao Ji was very interested, he didn't care about the bad things that should be done at all, and said with a smile: "One plus one equals two, how to explain it"
"Your Majesty, it is the bank that the minister explained in Yanfu Palace to make money, use other people's money to generate his own money, you can make a huge profit without a penny, and you can seize the barbarians' fur cattle and sheep, gold and silver mines without a penny from China, isn't this exactly one plus one is greater than two"
Zhao Ji stroked his palms and laughed, and said happily: "The Qing family is very scheming, but the saying is too inhumane, I am a rich man in the world, and the barbarian is not out of sight." β
"His Majesty is famous, and the minister has been taught." Wang Xiu's face was sincere and frightened, and he looked admiring.
Cai You and Wang Hao scolded almost at the same time: "Little fox", Wang Xiu's ability is comparable to them.
Zhao Ji seemed to enjoy Wang Xiu's compliment, and said with a smile: "The bank's rules for appointment, dismissal, rewards and punishments are a bit harsh, but the Qing family's concerns are not bad, should we discuss, the best of both worlds is not the best." β
Wang Xiu had a toothache, Zhao Guan's family is too good at mud, you want to make money and can't think of trouble, how can there be such a good thing in the world, but Zhao Ji is the key to the establishment and operation of the bank, he can't help but consider Zhao Ji's feelings, so he had to say: "The selection of officials in the bank to pay for expenses, loans, and pledges must not be sloppy, and the others can be relaxed one or two, but there must also be a few knowledgeable officials." β
The degree of expenditure is finance, the loan is a loan, and the pledge is the operation, these three links can not be used by laymen, and the professionalism of other miscellaneous and set houses is not too strong, and non-professionals can also bear it.
Zhao Ji nodded, Wang Xiu's compromise made him very satisfied, he also understands the master, and it involves money institutions, and few people who understand it are absolutely impossible.
Wang Hao was very dissatisfied with Wang Xiu, his eyes were a little ruthless, he was determined, and when he was about to open his mouth to criticize Wang Xiu, he saw Liang Shicheng come in, he was a senior eunuch in the inner palace, and he had directly entered the inner court for glory.
"The Qing family is here." Zhao Ji seemed very easy-going, and he was in a really good mood.
"The official family, the slave came to see the lively debate inside, and he didn't dare to disturb the official Yaxing, but there was something I wanted to ask Wang Jiyi." Liang Shicheng glanced at Wang Xiu intentionally or unintentionally, and his tone was very flat and gentle.
Zhao Ji was a little interested, and said with a smile: "Let's talk about it"
"Dare to ask, when will the office and the bank be profitable, and how much income is expected to be earned per year," Liang Shicheng looked at Wang Xiu.
Zhao Heng's eyes lit up, originally Wang Xiu just summarized it in general terms, and what he said was not so detailed, probably a few million, obviously unable to satisfy his curiosity.
Wang Xiu groaned a little and said categorically: "The Office will not be effective until next year, and the unified taxation of the Municipal Department of Shipping will be able to take at least one million yuan." The establishment and operation of a bank is not an overnight thing, it should take three or four years to achieve initial results, if you can set up venture capital, you can make a profit next year, and the income depends on how much you invest."
"How can you say that," Liang Shicheng said in surprise.
"The so-called venture capital is venture capital, which is a comprehensive variety of reports after careful analysis, and a desperate bet to seek the greatest return."
Zhao Ji was very interested and asked: "Tell me how to invest and how much principal is needed"
This matter, which should have been a solemn discussion of state affairs, turned out to be an occasion for monarchs and ministers to discuss how to make more money, and even Wang Xiu was a little ashamed.
"Your Majesty, for example, the northern Jurchens are attacking the Khitan, and the war between the two sides is in full swing, in addition to a large number of manpower, power amplifier equipment, grain, grass and money are all in short supply, and the most important thing for the imperial court is money, grain and equipment. In this way, the imperial court has three alternative venture capital schemes, the first is to balance the forces of the two sides, give them both sides to secretly invest money and food, maintain the undefeated pattern, and sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, while the imperial court can obtain rolling money. β
Zhao Ji took a breath of cool air, stared at Wang Xiu with wide eyes, whether it was Wang Hao, Cai You or Liang Shicheng present, their eyes were strange.
"And that's what I said, it's fresh." Zhao Ji naturally said to himself.
If you say that you sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, everyone can understand that how many examples there are throughout the ages are not new, and it is very common to maintain the balance of the two sides or join forces to attack one side, but I have never heard of the blatant investment on both sides and the great development of war money, which is a bit subversive of common sense, and even the frivolous Zhao Ji and others are a bit incredible.
"Villainous behavior, as a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, you have such unkind and unrighteous remarks, which is really unkind." Wang Hao scolded sharply. Wang Xiu had a sour toothache, and it was ridiculous to say this from the mouths of Li Gang, Zhang Jun and others, and to make him pay attention to it, and spit it out of Wang Hao's mouth. He forced a smile, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "The reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao is originally the law of the jungle. "Let's talk about the other two." Zhao Ji's eyes flickered, obviously very interested
