Chapter 172: The decree is difficult to pass

Zhao Hao personally went to the wharf to see off the delegation to Qiongzhou, in fact, he was also so bored that he wanted to come out to see, and after the fleet left, he ordered someone to go to Haikou to see the progress of the project. At this time, the water village has begun to take shape, the foundation of a square city with a circumference of 1,300 steps has been laid, and the direction facing the sea is also made of stone embankments, which is considered fast in the absence of machinery in ancient times. Then he walked to a few places to check the construction of the camp and the warehouse, but the more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became. Immediately after returning home, a meeting of the heads of the departments at home was called.

"Your Highness, now the armies have tried their best to participate in the construction of the city defense, and they are rushing to work day and night, and the speed cannot be improved." Zhao Mengjin has been accompanying His Royal Highness to inspect, and when he saw that his face was not good, he thought that he was not working well, which led to slow progress, so he quickly explained first.

"This king didn't mean you." Zhao Yu waved his hand and turned to Pan Fang and Zhao Heluodao, "Deputy Envoy Pan, Zhao Zhizhou, has this king ever deducted the money and food you need to build camps and cities?" ”

"Your Highness, the money and food are all distributed in full and on time, and there has never been a shortage!" Zhao Youluo was puzzled why His Highness asked like this, but he still answered honestly.

"In this case, why are all soldiers of various armies working on the construction site, and it is difficult to see the recruited people, and what is the explanation for this?" Zhao Hao asked. In the past, the common people were requisitioned by the government to participate in the construction of the project and deliver materials, which was called conscription, but in modern times, the state did not pay wages, only subsidized food expenses, but today he has seen it and found that there are very few people who serve in the service, which can only be said to be the ineffective work of officials.

"Your Highness, after receiving the order, your subordinates have already issued official documents to the prefectures and counties under Qiongzhou for requisition according to the amount of labor required in various places and according to the number of household registrations." Pan Fang first explained that their transshipment department is only responsible for planning, but the implementation depends on the local government.

"It's not that Your Highness doesn't do your best, but it's really difficult!" Only then did Zhao Youluo understand why His Royal Highness was unhappy, it turned out that the roots were here, and he hurriedly got up and said.

"Oh, what's so hard? Strengthening coastal defense is the most important task at present, and there must be no slackness. If it is reasonable, the king will not be held accountable, if he can't say why, don't blame the king for turning his face and being ruthless! Zhao Yu said solemnly. However, he saw that Zhao Youluo was obviously darker and thinner than a few days ago, and he also had two dark circles under his eyes, and he was obviously not idle, so he decided to give him a chance to explain.

"Your Highness, Your Highness must also know the current situation in Qiongzhou, and the officials of the counties under the rule of the lower officials have only been replaced, and many of the officials have been retained, and they are ...... Alas, how to say it! Zhao Youluo sighed and said, "And the people in the township are not active in applying, and they can't shirk it for various reasons, and even if they come, there are many escapes, which makes it difficult to recruit people." ”

"You mean that the subordinates are not working well, and the people are more resistant to recruitment, which makes it difficult to complete the task?" Zhao Yu asked rhetorically, Zhao Youluo nodded to indicate that this was exactly what he meant, "Since you can't use it effectively, why don't you remove, why don't you explain if you are in conflict, why don't you punish those who take the lead in making trouble?" ”

"What His Royal Highness said, the lower officials have also urged again and again, but a hundred years of stubborn illness is difficult to achieve overnight, and the lower officials can only say that they have tried their best!" Zhao Youluo shook his head helplessly and bowed to salute.

"You...... Do you really think that this king is so young that he can't hold a murderous sword? "Seeing that Zhao Heluo put on a posture that I can't help it, you can do whatever you want, and slapped Zhao Yuqi's seven-trick smoke on the case.

"Your Highness is angry, this matter cannot be completely blamed on the prefect of Zhao, he is also running around these days, frequently going down to the counties to urge, how can he not do it!" Pan Fang saw that His Highness was angry and hurriedly persuaded, but he knew that His Highness didn't look at his young age, his hands were not soft at all, how many people did he kill in Guangzhou?

"Your Highness, what the two adults said is right, it's not that they don't want to do their errands well, it's just that the place is not as good as the court, and all departments and departments only need to explain something to the state and county, and they all need to do it. Although there are differences in different places, they have three heads and six arms that are difficult to parry, and they also need someone to help. And once the officials are not effective, it will make the decree difficult to implement. Ying Jieyan took over and said.

However, most of the officials were in charge of the situational households, they had no salary, and they had to complete the affairs assigned to them, and if they did not do their jobs well, they were often punished, and even ruined their families, so not all of them were willing to fill the position. Other evil officials took advantage of the opportunity to extort and extort the people, causing resentment and then conflict, making it difficult to enforce the decrees. ”

"Oh, this king understands, this matter really can't be blamed entirely on the prefect of Zhao, this king's words are offended, please understand!" Zhao Yu got up and saluted Zhao and Luo.

As the saying goes, 'a thousand lines above, a needle below', he also worked at the grassroots level in the enterprise in his previous life, and he had to press down on everything at the bottom, from learning the spirit of the government, down to cleaning, and even participating in various social activities, of course, they had to participate in the completion of all kinds of social activities, of course, they were all voluntary labor. These departments can't afford to mess with themselves, but the production task still needs to be completed. And people's energy is limited after all, and they have to rely on the section leader and team leader below to complete.

Although these basic team leaders are not even cadres, they deal directly with the workers, and when they meet a good temper, strong work ability, and a good mass foundation, they can barely cooperate, and everyone is very happy. If you catch up with the heavy production tasks, the team leaders under your command are not strong, and there are a few thorns in the workers, who are working against you and making a strike, then it will be considered the end, and you will be criticized, and the bonuses will be deducted. But you can't punish all the people, otherwise you will all be picky, and you won't even have a supporter.

It's just that now I'm a leader, I just need to give instructions when I have something, and I don't have to worry about specific affairs, so I forgot about the sins I had suffered before, and I didn't ask about the results, and I wanted to kill and arrest at every turn, and I really responded to the words of the ass to decide the head. However, Zhao Hao reacted quickly, knew that he could correct his mistakes, realized that he had made a bureaucratic mistake, and immediately apologized.

"The lower officials don't dare, it's because the lower officials are ineffective, which makes His Royal Highness embarrassed!" It was the first time that Zhao Youluo had encountered a Shangguan who had admitted his mistake to his subordinates, and this person was still a high-ranking prince, so he hurriedly returned the courtesy.

"This matter is reckless by this king, and he should make amends, don't blame Governor Zhao!" Zhao Yu hurriedly left his seat and said nothing, although he said so at the moment, he was quite anxious in his heart. He knows that every major event in ancient and modern times needs to mobilize the people to participate in it, and if this problem cannot be solved, there will be great trouble in the future......
