Liu Qing's trouble is not only to deal with complicated government affairs, but also to put those surprising ideas into practice. Among them, the most surprising thing is that in the few months that Ye Tao was away, Yunzhou had another bureau-level administrative unit: the Communication Bureau.

The Messenger Bureau did not interfere in the original post affairs, at least not for the time being. For the time being, the Transmission Bureau is a small organization that directly serves the Jinglu Prefecture, mainly to ensure that all external communications in the Jinglu Prefecture can be efficient, safe and fast. At the same time, he was also responsible for sorting out and filtering intelligence documents for the government. And because of this kind of responsibility, the direction of the intelligence bureau is temporarily divided into four departments, southeast, northwest and northwest, and these four departments, in addition to the eastern, southern, western, and northern departments, also have their own clerical pronouns, and these four pronouns make Ye Tao unable to make any other expressions except for rolling his eyes.

The pronoun of the Oriental Division is "Nokia"; The southern generation is called "Motorola"; In the West, it is called "Ericsson"; The name of the northern part is "Ai Feng......

The work of the Communication Bureau is to straighten out the various official document transmission processes related to the Jingluo Prefecture and various departments in Yunzhou. Judging from the situation of more than a month after its formation, the performance of this pocket bureau is quite good. On the one hand, it is the competent personnel, excellent horses and vehicles in the province, and on the other hand, it draws on the experience of transportation companies that have proven efficiency and performance, such as FedEx and DHL World Express. At present, the Transmission Bureau has accelerated the speed of ordinary official documents to the level of 400 miles in the past, while the most urgent intelligence and official documents have not increased much...... After all, no matter how capable a manager is, it is impossible for the eagle to fly faster, so he can only work the links of letter transcription, password encoding and decoding. Now, because different types of passwords are enabled in the four places in the southeast, north, and west, there are professional decoders, which has improved both security and efficiency.

What is even more satisfying is the progress of the Transmission and Information Bureau in organizing various documents and materials. Although it is not yet possible to quickly obtain any information that a few heads of the Kokudai Prefecture need, the Office of the Transmission of Information has initially demonstrated the ability of an integrated document management organization embedded within the Koryūkuro Prefecture in this regard.

"Now, if I say I need last year's ordnance production, total tax revenue, etc., how long will it take to get the information?" After listening to Liu Qing's introduction, Ye Tao asked.

After thinking for a while, Liu Qing said, "If it's in Ningyuan or Thunder Cliff, it's probably more than a day. If it is here, it will take four to five days to get the rough number, and it will be between twelve and fourteen days when the detailed documents of the Messenger Bureau are delivered. ”

Ye Tao nodded with satisfaction and said, "That looks pretty good." Liu Qing, you've worked hard these days. ”

Although Liu Qing looked a little tired, he could see that his mental state was still very good. He, a son of the Liu family, has won a lot for the Liu family and his mother. Now his status is very different from before, especially these days, he is almost the hub of Yunzhou's administrative system. If it weren't for him taking over Feng Hao's work and running the entire Jingluo Mansion Clerk's Office, then Ye Tao and Feng Hao's departure in the past few months might not have delayed the things that had already been resolved, but due to the lack of efficiency, it would inevitably make those fresh ideas impossible to put into practice. The Messenger Bureau is a good example. Perhaps Liu Qing's work in the past few months has not been creative, but the role he has played is indeed solid. And with his performance in the past few months, he has completely transformed from the role of Ye Tao and the liaison between Seven Seas Trading Company and has become an important part of Yunzhou's administrative system.

Even if he was a little surprised by Liu Qing's current status, and felt that Liu Qing was the eldest young master of the Liu family who was the right person, he had to admit that what Liu Qing could do was something that these people in the Liu family had never thought of, and it was also something that anyone who had not worked and studied by Ye Tao's side for many years and mastered Ye Tao's management habits could not do it. And Liu Qing's mother, who is not from a good background, although she does not have to behave arrogantly, but has the same plain and willing attitude as usual, but her status in Liufu is clearly promoted. Liu Qing's mother, Yu Shi, now has her own luxurious courtyard and a large group of servants and maids, and she is treated the same as Liufu's grandmother in terms of monthly silver.

Liu Qing, as an official in Yunzhou, as a person who followed Ye Tao step by step to today's prominent position, knew that Ye Tao was tolerant and even encouraged for any other personal habits, but he hated corruption and fraud. Although Liu Qing is doing what an official with a two-rank and three-rank status can do, his temporary rank is only five. Fortunately, Yunzhou's official income is quite rich, although he can't give his mother much help in money, but he has no problem living comfortably and decently.

Liu Qing's diligence and honesty are seen by the people of Yunzhou, and even the Liu family's business in Yunzhou is quite supported by the locals. Although Liu Qing has never deliberately helped the development of the Liu family's industry, and sometimes when interests are involved, he often asks for avoidance, but his image has greatly improved everyone's impression of the Liu family. The Liu family, a maritime businessman, can only be regarded as a trial to expand business in Yunzhou, but the results achieved have surprised the Liu family.

"In Yunzhou's system, it's too hard for you to overstep your management of such a big mess. Xin'er and Yun'er are not good at these, but they can only trouble you. Ye Tao encouraged, "However, the situation of the inversion of power and rank will soon be changed." Since you have come to Danyang, I will arrange for you to go to the Ministry of Officials for a formal debriefing and evaluation, and when you return to Yunzhou, you will also be an important member of the official system. ”

"My lord, hehe, only in Yunzhou, I, a fifth-grade official, can manage so many guys with higher grades than me, and there will be no rebound...... You don't know what it feels like......" Liu Qing was a little excited, and having been with Ye Tao for a long time, he naturally knew that there was no need to be restrained in the relationship between his superiors and subordinates.

"Cool, right?" Ye Tao has also heard about Liu Qing's several tantrums, and in those coordination meetings, Liu Qing not only became angry because of the poor performance of several departments, but even pointed his nose and scolded several officials who were above him. "Anyway, if you can do things well, the grade relationship really doesn't matter. At least...... As long as I'm in Yunzhou, that's it. But the honor and status you should enjoy will definitely be given to you. ”

"Yes!" Liu Qing clenched his fists and dodged, and a strong emotion surged in his chest. He and Feng Wei are different. Feng Wei is more of Ye Tao's personal adviser, helping him analyze and understand various complex situations, which is the role of a wise man; And Liu Qing is a capable official, and for a long time, it seems that the characters who can be officials have not been taken very seriously, even in the Dongping Dynasty, in fact, there is such a situation. Situ Huang Xuping is a strategist and a wise man-type character, and it was only after ascending to the position of Situ that he began to gradually learn and manage government affairs, and even today everyone will regard him as a capable minister, and forget his dazzling image of being full of wisdom and scheming. However, in Yunzhou, it seems that the situation is different. Ye Tao, Tan Weixin, Dai Yun and others do also attach importance to strategists, staff, and staff officers, but they will not let such people do things that they are not good at, and they will not let the strategists consume their imagination in trivial daily affairs, but they will not let those who have incomparable coordination and handling ability and can make things run smoothly reluctantly do things that they are not good at.

"My lord, in another month, those woolen textiles will be on the market one after another. When you return to Yunzhou, it is estimated that you can still see the fields in the south of Yunzhou for harvesting. Some old farmers said that although this year's year is not particularly good, but the water conservancy and dredging are effective, and the deep ploughing and pest control and fertilization are also in place, this year's harvest may not be less than the average bumper year. By next year, everyone is familiar with this practice and sees the benefits, and the harvest may be a little better. The news from the ranch is also very encouraging, and the number and quality of young animals bred this summer are also very good. Coupled with the operation of the Commerce and Trade Bureau, the influx of so many merchants has brought with it the capital, manpower and demand...... It is estimated that by the end of this year, the total tax revenue in Yunzhou can increase by 40% to 60% year-on-year. ”

Ye Tao smiled: "Then it looks like the Yunzhou Jingluo Mansion can pay me back next year." ”

"I guess so." Liu Qing responded with a smile.

There are too many things that need to be invested in the construction of Yunzhou, and the original deposits, as well as the Yunzhou Development Fund, have not been able to withstand the large expenditures, and there is no way to maintain a huge capital flow. In this case, Ye Tao himself took out a large amount of money to build the world's leading factory in Yunzhou: Ye's Workshop Yunzhou Branch, needless to say, he and Tan Weixin also teamed up to take out a considerable amount of money in private names to lend to Yunzhou Economic Strategy Mansion for turnover...... I am afraid that there is no precedent in the whole world for not taking money from the position, but injecting capital.

And when this kind of thing happens, it is natural that some people will say strange things. After all, Ye Tao and Tan Weixin actually took out more than 10 million taels of silver at once, which is a lot of money, and it is impossible to have speculation about whether these two people have bought people's hearts and privatize public weapons. In reality, however, this discussion remains among a very small number of people in the know. Only a few people in Yunzhou and Dongping knew about this matter, and the vast majority of ordinary people and officials only regarded it as the imperial court was well prepared and spared no effort to develop Yunzhou......
