Chapter 837: Lack of Manpower
Lack of manpower, to be precise, it should be a large gap in the need for professionals in the bank, not to mention, just the front of the bank directly in contact with the people on the counter needs a lot of people, in addition to internal management personnel, as well as statistics, supervision, etc.
If you want to do things in the bank, first of all, literacy is a must, and literacy alone is not enough, in addition to mathematics must also be proficient, the reason why mathematics is listed separately is because the readers of this era only pay attention to the sage articles, poetry, calligraphy and painting may be all fine, but in terms of arithmetic is a mess, addition and subtraction may be fine, but multiplication and division is not necessarily, the level is not as good as the primary school students of later generations.
Although as early as more than ten years ago, Li Chunfeng wrote Li Xiu's new arithmetic into a book "Li Gongzi Arithmetic", and it was promoted by the imperial court within the officials, but there are not many people who are interested in arithmetic in this era after all, and officials only study this book for the needs of officials, and for most readers, they have never even heard of this book, but businessmen who do business love this book very much, and it is said that almost everyone has a copy of the bookkeeper.
Banks deal with money all year round, and the place where mathematics is used is naturally more frequent, so the bank needs a large number of talents who can write and calculate, but there are few people who can write, but there are not many people who can calculate, and the officials of the household department may be proficient in this, but the financial supervisor has mobilized a large number of people from the household department before, and if you go to ask for people, I am afraid that the household department will have to find Li Xiu desperately, and as for recruiting from the people, the level cannot be guaranteed.
"Donkey, this manpower is a big problem, fortunately, the construction of the bank will take a few months, I think it is better to recruit some from the people first, and then use these few months to send someone to teach these people arithmetic, so that it can barely be used in the future." Xu Jingzong also ran up and down during this time, responsible for all aspects of the bank, such as the recruitment of personnel in the bank, he has always been in charge, and he also likes this feeling of holding power, after all, there are many people who ask him for it during this time.
"Don't worry, I've already figured out where to recruit the people these banks need!" Li Xiu smiled indifferently at this time.
"Do you have a solution, colt? That's great! Hearing that Li Xiu already had a countermeasure, Xu Jingzong seemed to be relieved at this time. However, if you look closely, you will find that there is a little unnaturalness in his eyes, because he has promised some people in advance that he will help them arrange some people to enter the bank, but now Li Xiu said that he had already prepared a candidate, and now his previous promise may also be disappointed.
Li Xiu also knows better than anyone else about Xu Jingzong's careful thinking, and even he has long known that when Xu Jingzong helped him select the officials of the financial supervision before, he also hid his own careful thoughts, and two officials came in through Xu Jingzong's back door, but Xu Jingzong still does things in a measured manner, and he doesn't dare to let people in if he has no talent, so Li Xiu also turns a blind eye to this, after all, when the water is clear, there is no fish, and occasionally giving his henchmen a little sweetheart is also the way of the emperor.
"It just so happens that the weather is good today, and I feel really depressed after staying in the financial supervision for a long time, why don't you accompany me out for a trip, and by the way, I also meet the talents I prepared for the bank!" Li Xiu stood up at this time and smiled again, he has been busy in the financial supervision for almost a month, and even he feels a little annoyed when he goes out early and returns late every day, so he just takes this opportunity to go out for a walk today.
"That's great, my subordinates have long wanted to go out with the colt!" Xu Jingzong immediately nodded and agreed, although he still had some things to deal with, but in comparison, he felt that it was more important to accompany his immediate boss, and he also knew that Li Xiu had always disliked to be in charge, as long as he got Li Xiu's respect, then maybe the entire financial supervisor would have the final say in the future.
At the moment, Li Xiu and Xu Jingzong went out of the financial supervision together, and then rode out of the imperial city, first turned a small circle and went to the West Market, and looked at the progress of the bank's project, because there were craftsmen in the palace involved, and Xu Jingzong also recruited a lot of craftsmen from the people, their skills may not be as good as the craftsmen in the palace, but they can also do some rough work, after all, there are many people who are easy to do, according to this progress, it is estimated that by about August, the bank should be able to be built.
The special officials on the bank's side were in charge, so Li Xiu and Xu Jingzong left after understanding each other, and then left Chang'an City from Mingde Gate, and then walked all the way south, but Xu Jingzong walked more and more strangely, and finally couldn't help asking: "Don Ma, I look at this direction, it seems to be the road to the Ministry of Agriculture, right?" ”
The Ministry of Agriculture and Li Xiu's house are only separated by a river, but Xu Jingzong is embarrassed to say that Li Xiu went home early, so he replaced it with the Ministry of Agriculture.
"Yes, let's just go to the Ministry of Agriculture, to be exact, it should be a place next to the Ministry of Agriculture, and you will know when you get there!" Li Xiu smiled again at this time.
"Isn't next to the Ministry of Agriculture your house?" When Xu Jingzong heard this, he couldn't help but muttered in his heart, of course he didn't dare to really say it, but he was also very strange at this time, how could Li Xiu's family have the talents that the bank needed, could it be that Li Xiu was going to stuff all his house slaves into the bank? But if he does this, I am afraid that the officials in the court will attack him, and with Xu Jingzong's understanding of Li Xiu, he will not do such an unwise thing?
However, Li Xiu didn't open his mouth to explain, and Xu Jingzong didn't dare to ask more, so as not to provoke Li Xiu's disgust, and at this time he thought of one more thing, and immediately changed the topic and said: "By the way, is our young eunuch Liu delayed on the road for too long, and he hasn't arrived until now, isn't this too unconcerned about our financial management department?" ”
There are two young eunuchs in the financial management department, Xu Jingzong is one of them, he has a strong desire for power, and Li Xiu is unwilling to take care of things, so he has always been in charge of the financial supervisor, and the other young eunuch who has not yet taken office has naturally become the first opponent he wants to get rid of.
"This ...... Maybe something was delayed on the way, right? Li Xiu also frowned when he heard this, originally according to his estimate, the other party should have arrived in Chang'an a long time ago, but now it has been almost a month, but there is still no news, he believes in the other party's character very much, but he is worried that the other party will encounter any accidents on the road, such as illness, heavy rain, etc., and may even encounter robbers, it is not for nothing that the officials sent by Datang are killed by robbers, and when he thinks of these, he can't help but be more worried.
