Chapter 449 Department of Commerce
Qin Baichuan showed a familiar attitude, but Yu Qingwu was extremely unhappy. The unhappiness mainly comes from two aspects, on the one hand, Qin Baichuan is so bad at practicing herself, but the first time she actually believed his nonsense explanation, and even felt beautiful; On the other hand, the Bloody Guards were originally an organization independent of the Six Ministries, and her official position was the ninth grade, but now it is good, as Lord Lu listened to Qin Baichuan's advice and established the Ministry of Commerce, her dignified leader of the Bloody Guards was reduced to the point of acting as a guard for the merchants, although the salary has not changed, but the official position has been reduced to the tenth grade! The root cause of all this is Qin Baichuan, how can Yu Qingwu have no resentment?
Qin Baichuan was here to say this affectionately to them, and the woman behind Qu Xi sighed lightly, with a slight annoyance in her expression. This person is Luo Yuanluo's chief steward, since Jiangling came back, Luo Yuan has almost no chance to be alone with Qin Baichuan, at this time, he obviously feels that his relationship with Qu Xi has never been eased, and even with Yu Qingwu is a little flirtatious, Luo Yuan wants to ask Qin Baichuan, what is he? In Anyang, he sacrificed himself to save himself, kissed and touched himself in the car, did he forget all these things?
Luo Yuan was a little distracted when she thought about it, Qu Xi called her a few words again and again, and the chief steward reacted, seeing that Qu Xi had turned back, her cold eyes saw through her heart like a knife, Luo Yuan was even more flustered, secretly clenched her fists, and then said softly: "Big Boss, you called me?" ”
"What are you thinking?" The corners of Qu Xi's mouth carried a hint of unpredictable taste.
"No, I didn't think about anything." Luo Yuan vaguely realized that she might have been discovered by the owner of the big village, and pretended to be calm: "It may be that I slept late last night and was in a trance." ”
"I don't think it's a trance, but Sichun, right?" Yu Qingwu, who was standing next to her, glanced at Luo Yuan, and the eyes of the chief steward kept falling on the person surnamed Qin, if she wanted to say that there were no ghosts here, she wouldn't believe it.
"Miss Yu, don't talk nonsense." Although Luo Kite and Yu Qingwu have known each other for a few days, they are not too familiar, and their tone is a little stiff.
"I think Miss Yu is right." Where is it appropriate to say such things on this occasion, but the owner of Qu Da Zhuang nodded unusually: "You have been by my side for so many years, working day and night for the affairs of Splendid Villa, but I think I have treated you badly." ”
"Big farmer, you are as kind as a mountain to Luo Kite, Luo Kite is grateful, where do you have to say that you have to be treated?" Luo Kite shook her head.
"No matter what, the man should get married, and the woman should get married." Qu Xi's face did not change at all, and he said lightly: "The current Splendid Villa has a firm foothold, and you will be nineteen years old after this Chinese New Year's Eve, I remember that your birthday is in May, if you don't have a wishful husband by then, you will violate the law of Dasong...... In this way, it is indeed time to put the matter of marriage on the agenda. ”
Luo Yuan frowned slightly, the big owner seemed to care about this, but this was obviously something to say. Thinking of Qin Baichuan's ignorance of his love, Luo Yuan felt bitter for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Does the owner of the big village want to marry Luo Yuan out and keep me away from Splendid Villa?" ”
"I did mean to marry you off, but I didn't leave Splendid Villa." Qu Xi nodded, shook his head again, and said, "I have found one for you, who is also a person from our Splendid Villa, and he is young and promising, and he can also be called a talent." ”
"Who?" Luo Yuan didn't want to ask, but the owner of the village said that this person was Splendid Villa, so it was very likely to be Qin Baichuan! Besides, she and Qu Xi had a joke about serving a husband together when they were children, maybe the owner of the big farm wanted to take this opportunity to fulfill the promise at that time.
Qu Xi hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't say it in public, but gently spit out three words in Luo Yuan's ear. Luo Yuan breathed quickly, clenched his fists hard, and even had some anger towards Qu Xi in his eyes! All the beauty, all the expectations, all the assumptions were all turned into ashes when the owner of the big village said the three words "Chen Heming"! Luo Yuan even noticed that Qu Xi was obviously doing this on purpose, wanting to cut off the relationship between her and Qin Baichuan!
"Big Owner!" Luo Kite didn't know where the courage came from, raised his head and looked at the big owner, and he was almost about to run away!
"There's still a few months to go, you think about it a little, now is not the time to talk about it." Sensing the change in Luo Kite's mood, Qu Xi's face also sank, in fact, with a woman's sixth sense, she noticed that there were some things that she didn't know when Luo Kite and Qin Baichuan went to Anyang, but she didn't dare to confirm it without evidence, now...... Qu Xi narrowed his eyes, fire prevention, theft prevention, girlfriend prevention, the ancients were honest and did not deceive me.
"Yes." Luo Yuan gritted her teeth hatefully, since you all know that now is not the time to talk about this, why do you still stir up this topic? Peeked at Qin Baichuan, and saw that although the latter also had a tangled expression, he didn't mean to speak for himself, Luo Yuan's whole heart sank.
"Master Qu, the exhibition is still going on at this time, why don't you let Su come to the stage and say a few words?" Su Muqing vaguely sensed that Luo Yuan and the owner of Qu Zhuang had some inexplicable contradictions, and he was very clever to bring the topic to the scene again.
"Minister Chen, the marketing department's performance today is excellent, you come down to rest first, and let Steward Su say a few words." Qu Xi stood under the stage and instructed Chen Heming.
"The owner of the big farm...... I'm not tired yet......" Chen Heming glared at Su Muqing angrily, he still had a lot of marketing skills that he hadn't shown, but this surnamed Su wanted to steal his limelight!
"It doesn't matter if you're tired or not, it's enough." Qu Xi said coldly: "I have seen the growth of the marketing department in the past few months, and I strongly agree with the fact that Director Qin Fang appointed you as the minister. ”
"Thank you for your affirmation!" Chen Heming worked so hard just to get the affirmation of the big village owner and Qin Fang owner, and at this time the goal has been achieved, Chen Heming did not dare to disobey the order even if he was a little regretful.
"Brother Chen, wait a minute, Su will just say two words, and after speaking, he will return the stage to Brother Chen." Chen Heming had already turned around to leave, but after Su Muqing got on the stage, he took his hand and smiled apologetically at Chen Heming, and then he said loudly: "Fellow Daoists in Jiangling, Su Muqing recommended himself to the stage today to offer his ugliness, just want to announce some things, which are related to the career of Jiangling scholars, please listen carefully." ”
Su Muqing hit the nail on the head when he opened his mouth, and when he heard that it was related to his career, those who read were even more energetic, and they didn't dare to mishear a word.
"I think you have heard in my casual chat with Engong Qin Baichuan and Mr. Qin that the Holy Lord has personally issued a holy decree to separate the Ministry of Commerce outside the six ministries, and put it in Jiangling as a pilot. Su Muqing smiled lightly: "The petty officials of the first ten grades are insignificant, but the emperor has clearly made instructions in the holy decree, because the Ministry of Commerce is currently only limited to Jiangling, and the official position cannot be set too high, if it is stationed in Lin'an in the future, it will be the same official position as the six ministries, and its status may be slightly lower than that of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment, but it is definitely above the other three!" ”
Su Muqing's words were said in the name of the emperor and the holy decree, in this era, the imperial power is supreme, unless he is tired of life, no one dares to use the imperial power to say things. If Su Muqing dares to say this, it is enough to prove the authenticity of his words!
Many scholars have discussed that the six parts of the Da Song Dynasty are the official household rites and military punishment workers, with the same rank, but the power is somewhat different. The official household Shangshu is in charge of the promotion of officials in the world, and is currently led by Lord Lu; The military department is the country's national defense force, the internal army is led by King Wu, but the outer army is the old general Di Wuling Di as the secretary of the military department; The Criminal Department is in charge of the world's punishment, and establishes the law for Da Song, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department is also a high authority.
These three parts all belong to the super real power faction, which is called the upper three in the folk; The rest of the household statistics population, the etiquette regulations of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry to build weapons, and the skills of strange obscenity have no real power, so they are called the lower three. But whether it is the upper three or the lower three, being able to enter the sixth ministry can be regarded as an improvement in the official career, and this newly established Ministry of Commerce has been promised by the emperor, and its status is even above the other three ministries, which must not be underestimated.
"Lord Su, the emperor's establishment of the Ministry of Commerce is certainly a move to push through the old and bring forth the new, but what does it have to do with us?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"Whether it matters or not, everyone can judge for themselves." Su Muqing smiled lightly: "The so-called Ministry of Commerce is a single means to change the traditional collection of heavy taxes by the imperial court to enrich the treasury, and on the premise of not affecting the foundation of Dasong, the government is allowed to carry out business-style operations. At present, the government of Gangneung Prefecture has established a Jiangling merchant alliance, which exists to resolve disputes in shopping malls, and the owner of Quxi Quda Village of Splendid Villa also happens to be the first leader of the business alliance and is protected by the government. ”
Su Muqing paused and continued: "A few days ago, Lord Lu and Lu Fuyin personally met the Lord of the Qu League and me, and gave us an order, the Ministry of Commerce was first established, and it was the time to employ people, so let us recruit people for the entire Jiangling, as long as I and the Lord of the Qu League agreed, he Lord Lu would not object, and he could directly become an official of the Ministry of Commerce, and lead the government to serve the Ministry of Commerce!" If he can contribute to the Ministry of Commerce, Master Lu even personally promised that when the operation of the Ministry of Commerce is mature, there is no need for the imperial examination, and the Ministry of Commerce will be directly appointed from among these veterans! ”
After Su Muqing explained the Ministry of Commerce clearly, the eyes of those scholars suddenly lit up, as long as the two of them approved, they could become officials recognized by the imperial court, which was a shortcut to becoming an official that had never been seen in thousands of years! It is true that when he first entered, he could only act as a small official, but the sea was up and down, as long as he entered the officialdom, he was still worried about the day when he came out? No matter how bad it is, even if you live forever as an official, it is better than being an ordinary scholar!
