This audience may be very important for Xie Yiwei and Chen Lifu, especially Chen Lifu, the whole person is even more excited, he has been in the office for so many years, and it is the first time to step into the office of the Son of Heaven, and it is also the first time to make a report in front of the Son of Heaven.

He was so excited that when he spoke, he stuttered a little, fortunately for Chen Lifu, this is a rare situation, but fortunately, this situation only appeared at the beginning, and when the report gradually progressed, the whole person regained his composure.

After all, Chen Lifu is not an ordinary person, and the previous nervousness was only because of the first time he made a report to the saint, which gave him a few minutes to get used to, and the situation was better.

In fact, even Xie Yiwei still has this kind of nervousness, because for Xie Yiwei, today's report is equally important.

Xie Yiwei knows very well that he doesn't know anything about securities affairs, banking affairs and other financial affairs, and when the Son of Heaven transferred him to the Financial Division, he probably didn't expect him to make any actual achievements, Xie Yiwei's task to go to the Financial Department is just to stabilize the Financial Division.

Now that the Financial Department has been initially stabilized, Xie Yiwei doesn't want to mess around like this, and then wait for a year and a half to be transferred to other places to continue to play political struggle, he still wants to make achievements here in the Financial Department, so that he can hope to go further in the future and become a second-class high-ranking official like the governor of a province or a squire.

Not to mention, Li Xuan's heart really planned to wait for Xie Yiwei to get rid of the Financial Division, and when other places encountered trouble, he would be transferred to other places to continue to play this kind of political struggle, after all, Xie Yiwei was best at this kind of thing, Li Xuan, as the emperor, how to better use his courtiers and their abilities was naturally a very important matter.

But to be honest, if it goes on like this, Xie Yiwei estimates that he will still slowly mix in the officialdom, and then be promoted, and finally one day, maybe it is possible to become a second-class high-ranking official and become a squire.

But the possibility of this is very small, even if it can be successful, it is estimated that he will only have this opportunity when he is close to Zhishi.

But Xie Yiwei doesn't want to do this!

He wants to become a real minister of the empire, he wants to become a squire in the last few years, no more than ten years at the latest, so that he has a glimmer of hope to touch the position of a Shangshu.

As for the position of the Minister on Duty in the Imperial Study, he is self-aware, even if everything goes well, the possibility that a person like him can become the Minister on Duty in the Imperial Study is infinitely close to zero.

His greatest luxury is to be able to live an addiction to Shangshu in front of Zhishi!

With the stability of the empire, the officialdom of the empire has gradually been formalized, and there are also many unspoken rules.

According to the relevant regulations of the empire, the age of officials above the third rank is 600,000 years old, and from this age analysis, then it will be found that there are some unspoken rules for promotion in the imperial officialdom, that is, if an official wants to become a scholar, then his promotion age must be before the age of sixty-two.

Because in order to maintain the stability of the top, unless there is an accident, the tenure of officials above the rank of squire is usually more than three years.

In order to maintain a three-year term, it is necessary to become a shoshu of the second rank before the age of sixty-two.

At the same time, in order to ensure that before being promoted, accumulate enough qualifications, then it is usually necessary to accumulate at least six years of seniority from the second grade, at least, the position of the left waiter must be done, and this term of office is three years, before serving as the left waiter, you must first serve as the right waiter or the governor of a province, which is at least three years.

That's at least six years!

Three years plus six years, that is, nine years, that is, if an official does not become a second-grade official before the age of fifty-four, then basically there is no need to expect to become a Shangshu in the future.

And Xie Yiwei, who is now fifty years old, is still the director of the financial department of the third grade, if he wants to become a scholar before Zhishi, then he needs to go to a higher level in recent years, and strive to become a third-grade official before two or three years, and then he can strive for continued promotion step by step.

The officialdom of the Tang Empire is now more and more formal, and the more formal it is, the more cruel it is!

Unlike in the early years, there were many rocket promotions, and with a little ability, they could quickly become a high-ranking official of the third grade, and even become a Shangshu, the promotion of officials in today's Datang officialdom is already very formal, and in the early years, they were promoted indiscriminately, and they had no ability to high-level officials, in fact, most of them were successively enjoying glory and wealth, Qian Mengjiu and Wang Wenhua and others are typical examples.

The top echelons of the imperial officialdom, especially those at the level of Shangshu and Shilang, have basically changed, and some positions have even changed several times.

Such regularization of official promotions, appointments, and dismissals also represents an increasing competition among officials.

Every step of promotion, is a competition, because there is a provision for the length of service, less than the number of years is not allowed to promote the grade, every year, every term is very precious, waste one more year, then it is possible to let yourself fall behind in the competition, and finally to the time of the Shi, others are Shangshu Zhishi, and you may only be able to the four prefects of the Zhishi.

This kind of pressure, Chen Lifu feels not obvious, because he is still young, he is only thirty-three years old this year, he is already a fourth-grade official, and his previous resume is almost perfect, as long as Chen Lifu himself does not die, he will rise to a higher level in a few years, and become a third-grade official It is safe.

If he didn't have this qualification, Chen Lifu wouldn't have the luxury of entering the imperial study, becoming the minister on duty in the imperial study, and creating a prosperous era of Xuanping anyway.

Without such qualifications, such an idea is not an extravagant hope, but a daydream.

Age and career experience are Chen Lifu's biggest capital!

But with such an age and resume, Xie Yiwei doesn't have it!

If you want to fight your way out, you can only take other paths, such as making great achievements and making achievements that people can't ignore and make the Holy Son pay attention to.

How did you do in the Finance Division? Even if Xie Yiwei is a fool, he knows that he must do a good job in the imperial financial system, so that he can make achievements, but he knows what the goal is, but how to achieve it, he can't understand it.

After all, you can't expect a person who dealt with the Four Books and Five Classics every day in his early years, intrigued every day after joining the office, and put on a show to curry favor with Shangguan, and knew how to engage in finance.

Seriously, Xie Yiwei doesn't even know about the financial system of the empire today!

But as the director of the financial department, do you need to understand what the financial system is?

Xie Yiwei thinks that he doesn't need to understand this, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand it, just have someone under his hand who understands, this Chen Lifu, he understands a lot, Xie Yiwei has been observing Chen Lifu for a while, and found that this person has a very good set of securities affairs, and he can't figure out why Chen Lifu has not been in contact with securities and financial affairs before, so why he is so neat.

At this time, Xie Yiwei didn't know, in fact, Chen Lifu himself didn't understand these securities affairs, but it didn't matter if he didn't understand, he would study it if he didn't understand.

And why does he need to know how the securities system works and so on, a large group of professionals under his hands, he only needs to have a problem there, and then solve the problem, after all, he doesn't need to redesign a whole new set of securities trading rules, even if he really wants to do this, he doesn't need to design it himself, the securities department has professionals, no matter how poor, he can also find the Royal Institute of Technology's economics department for help.

Those perverts in the economics department of the Royal Institute of Technology are good majors or not!

To a certain extent, in fact, Xie Yiwei and Chen Lifu are somewhat similar, they are both from the traditional imperial examination, and they have both served as officials of the former Ming Dynasty, well, although Chen Lifu was dismissed after only a few months.

But there are differences.

That is, Xie Yiwei always wants to use other political means to play too much, even now, he is using Chen Lifu's ability to contribute to his political achievements.

As for Chen Lifu, he doesn't like to mess up so many messy things, he likes to cut through the mess quickly, and solve problems when there are problems, even if there will be rivers of blood in the process of solving problems!

For Chen Lifu, all this blood was a sacrifice that had to be made for the sake of the prosperity of the empire!

It was their honor to sacrifice their blood and even their lives for the glory of the empire!

Chen Lifu and Xie Yiwei each have their own ideas and thoughts, while Li Xuan, who is sitting at the top, is much more pure.

Because he doesn't need to think about too many messy things at all, these political affairs are actually not difficult for Li Xuan!

Because he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!

It is the Eternal Sage, the Son of Heaven, and the God Emperor who is greater than the sun!

Many things that are very complicated and troublesome for courtiers, in fact, for Li Xuan, they are all things of one sentence.

It's just that sometimes, he doesn't want to say such a thing!

For example, the previous chaos in the Financial Division, he also saw the chaos in the Financial Division, in fact, as long as he is willing, a few words, and even without issuing a special decree, can ensure that the Financial Department has a new look.

But Li Xuan was unwilling to do this, but followed Chen Lifu's original impeachment recital, and then beat Qian Aoli and Song Ruan Gao fifty boards, and finally found Xie Yiwei and asked Xie Yiwei to stabilize the situation in the Financial Department.

This way of operation is very troublesome, and even a little redundant, but Li Xuan still does it, because Li Xuan is unwilling to break some unspoken rules in the imperial officialdom, and he is even more unwilling to personally participate in the political struggle of his courtiers.

As the Emperor, he has to play the role of a referee, not a player!

Such Li Xuan, when listening to Xie Yiwei and Chen Lifu's plans for securities reform, naturally did not think too much about other messy things, what he paid attention to was very simple, that is, whether this reform was necessary!

Yes, the focus of his attention is not whether the reform plan is good or not, but whether it is necessary!

If there is no need for this, then even if this reform plan is very good, then Li Xuan will throw it directly into the trash.

If this is necessary, then even if this reform plan is rubbish, Li Xuan will promote its implementation!

On what basis is this necessity judged?

Stable!

At the lesser level, it is said to be financial stability, and at the largest level, it is the rule of the empire or the stability of Li Xuan's rule!

Stability, overpower!
