Zhang Mingyi, as a jinshi, still has at least the knowledge reserve.

In fact, at present, there are only three Jinshi in Qi Province, Xu Mujiang, Xu Muhe and Zhang Mingyi, and they all come forward, and they can be regarded as making the best use of their talents.

Specific to the Criminal Department in charge of Zhang Mingyi, in fact, he is equivalent to the highest judge in Qi Province, and the specific provisions of the law remain the same - the military law is still used throughout the province.

In addition, Xu Shiyang hopes that Zhang Mingyi will spend more time on inspecting the work of officials at all levels in the subordinate localities of Qi Province.

To be precise, an inspection team headed by Zhang Mingyi was set up to inspect the work of officials at all levels in the territory of the Governor's Office.

After all, Zhang Mingyi is actually a prison army, so let's just supervise the army to the end.

Zhang Mingyi himself was a little hesitant about this.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department is indeed a very big official, once he is next, he is actually the third highest official under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion after Xu Muhe and his son, and Xu Mujiang.

But the problem is that this Shangshu was appointed by the Governor's Office, not an official of the imperial court, and naturally he will not be endorsed by the imperial court.

If one day it will be .......

Heh, taking over this job, wouldn't Zhang Mingyi become an early stander? How will he go back to Jiangnan then?

"Brother Zhang doesn't need to make a decision in a hurry, it's not too late to give me an answer in a few days, anyway, it will take some time for the six departments to be prepared."

Xu Shiyang saw his hesitation and said kindly:

"If Brother Zhang doesn't want to take this job, we will never force it."

"But ah, Brother Zhang can take a closer look at what Qi Province looks like today, and then compare Jiangnan, who is more hopeful, Brother Zhang is a person who understands, and he won't be confused."

Zhang Mingyi nodded: "Let me think about it for a few more days." ”

"By the way, does Brother Zhang want to invest in the factory?" Xu Shiyang asked suddenly.

"Invest in a factory? Personally? ”

"It can also be Brother Zhang's family, or it can even be Jiangnan's good friends with Brother Zhang, and those from our side will not refuse."

Xu Shiyang smiled:

"Here are a few details of the new factories planned to start next year, Brother Zhang can take a look, you can take any one you like, and the investment ratio cannot exceed 4 into 9."

Xu Shiyang handed Zhang Mingyi a directory.

He took a quick glance at the textile factories and tool factories in the provincial capital, the shochu factory in Rizhao, the tea factory in Laoshan to grow tea, the salt factory in southern Liaoning, the new steel factory in Laiwu County, which was subordinate to Quancheng Prefecture, the vehicle factory that was transferred to Yanzhou to produce new carriages, and an enamel factory.

Zhang Mingyi said in surprise: "Salt and iron are also open to the people? ”

"It will be in the future, not yet." Xu Shiyang replied: "Now it's just absorbing private capital, investors only pay dividends, how to operate and product flow is still in charge of the Governor's Office - now we are still at war after all." ”

"That's right......."

Zhang Mingyi felt that this seemed to be the Governor's Mansion of Qi Province making concessions to himself and the gentry of the Jiangnan pro-main war faction, and there should not be much of a problem.

"Yes, give me this." Zhang Mingyi tapped on the list of new factories and said lightly: "I will send someone to Jiangnan to discuss with the interested gentry over there." ”

"Then it's troublesome Brother Zhang."

Xu Shiyang smiled very happily.

……

The annual meeting ended on the 28th of the lunar month, and then the participating officials at all levels went home to reunite and prepare for the New Year.

According to the requirements of the Governor's Office, except for the officers on duty and the officers on shift, the rest of the officials officially began to enter the new year on the sixth day of the first lunar month.

It was a short time, but the new officials had nothing to complain about when they were given such an annual leave during the war.

This year, Xu Shiyang stayed in the Governor's Mansion with his wife and concubines and sons.

Now the Xu family is in full swing, but several outstanding young people of the world are running around in all directions, and even Xu Shiyang, who is in Qi Province, has not participated in the ancestor worship activities during the New Year for two years, which makes Mr. Xu Muhe, the patriarch who is eager to show off to the ancestors of the Xu family, very annoyed.

Xu Shiyang has no choice, and he can only stay in Quancheng this year.

The governor of the capital has transferred the ancestral hall of the Xu family to Quancheng Mansion, he spent nearly five million catties of food stamps, built a palace-like new ancestral hall, during the New Year, all the men of the Xu family in Qi Province went out to carry out more and more cumbersome ancestor worship activities.

Xu Shiyang did not averse to ancestor worship activities, which were originally a cultural custom that the Han people attached great importance to, and even felt that this kind of activity could be summarized as "sending sorrow for the ancestors, inheriting the will of the immortals, and making our nation, family and individual better."

But if resources are wasted to such an extent, Xu Shiyang will be very unhappy.

What's more, he felt that if he continued to let his father toss like this, it wouldn't take a few years, and he was afraid that when he asked the Xu family to worship their ancestors, all the governors would go together to pay tribute to the ancestors of the Xu family.

Anyway, what does the ancestor of the Xu family have to do with others?

Xu Shiyang felt that he should have a good talk with his father again.

Well, it's still in the stage of "fighting for the world", and everything needs to be simple for the sake of simplicity.

Now Xu Muhe, who is bent on becoming an emperor, will definitely accept this reason.

……

Gangnam.

During the Chinese New Year, the festive atmosphere permeates the streets and alleys of Lin'an City.

In the first year of Longdao, the situation of Da Zhou was much better than last year.

First, after the new emperor ascended the throne, the New Year's coins were stopped as a matter of course.

Without this large amount of expenditure, thanks to the efforts of Wen Xianggong and the new cabinet, the imperial court was able to achieve a balance of payments for the first time in ten years, without incurring a new deficit.

This is not easy, you must know that the cabinet of Qin Hui, which was overthrown last year, left Wen Jifu with a deficit of up to 41 million guan, which is almost half of the annual income of the Great Zhou court.

Second, Tong Guan has already captured the anti-thief investor Fang La in the middle of the month, and the Fang La civil unrest that lasted for more than a year has officially come to an end.

Fang La's subordinates still have a few distant generals on the run, but they can't bring more trouble to the imperial court if they want to come here.

In this way, Longdao will have more respite in the second year because the war has subsided.

Third, although the imperial court has not achieved any visible results in the development of Jianghuai at this time, the number of Jiangbei displaced people who usually fill the streets and alleys has indeed decreased immediately.

Those displaced people were left in Jianghuai by Xu Shisong, and Xu Taiwei distributed 30 to 50 acres of land to each family, so that the displaced people had the ability to support themselves, and also made outstanding contributions to the improvement of the appearance of Lin'an City.

Moreover, nearly two million displaced people and 30 million mu of land in the Jianghuai generation can provide a large amount of taxes for the imperial court even if only one-tenth of it is reclaimed.

Even better, the imperial court didn't need to spend anything to feed a strong army in Jianghuai!

The Great Zhou Jianghuai Army, which is composed of part of the forbidden army, the Jiangnan People's Army, and the Jianghuai refugees, currently has a full 220 battalions and 110,000 registered soldiers!

The situation is very good, and it stands to reason that the Longdao Emperor of the Great Zhou should be very happy.

It stands to reason that .......

In fact, he had only been in power for more than a year, but Emperor Longdao, who was already in his forties, was still as worried as he was when he was a crown prince.

Even more worried than then.

Because what makes the emperor feel unhappy now, in addition to all kinds of Tartars, there is another Xu family in Qi Province!
