When he was a lieutenant, Zhao Jiaren attended court meetings three times a month. After becoming an official, Taiwei Zhao had to attend court meetings every time.

The current court meeting has changed. The first is the 9-to-5 work, which is no longer the formalism of setting off before dawn. The second is that after the separation of rights and responsibilities, the number of people attending the court meeting began to decrease. The final change was the revival of Tang traditions, and the group of officials in attendance were given seats. Mr. Zhao chose the mode of holding meetings at a long table, in which the officials not only had seats, but also could lay out paper on the table and write and draw with a fountain pen or pencil dipped in water.

"This time we're going to talk about budget execution reviews. Budgets are given to each department, and they are reviewed every quarter. Xu Yuanzhi, the head of the household, recounted his work.

In the face of the foaming Tobe Shangshu, most of the people in other departments did not have very good expressions. Of course, it's good to get money, but it's very bad to be audited and supervised. Although we know that being audited is a doomed problem, we still don't want to be audited. It would be great if you could spend as much as you wanted, and you could spend it however you wanted.

After Xu Yuanzhi finished his work, Liu Meng, the newly established Minister of Education, said: "We want to establish education departments and education bureaus in all the states. This is a matter of permissions. Whether these education departments and education bureaus are directly under the control of the imperial court, or are they subordinate and subordinate relations. ”

This question is really a good question, and most of the officials do not look good. Although there is no so-called subordinate unit problem in the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites was originally in charge of the imperial examination school, although Zhao Taiwei did not deprive the Ministry of Rites of power, but the Ministry of Education Control Section, and now most of the students, especially more than 99.5% of the dolls, have gone to the schools run by the Ministry of Education. If this development continues, ten years later, there will probably be no meaning for the imperial examination school.

As for other departments, Liu Meng's words were tantamount to telling them that the previous Great Song system would face challenges. Because the Great Song Dynasty does not have the concept of a province, the road in the Great Song Dynasty is just a so-called superior unit. For example, Zhao Jiaren served as a criminal prison in Fujian Road, but this yamen of the prison was only a yamen, and he did not have any dispatched units from the states and counties directly under him. In other words, Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Tidian could only work hard by themselves at that time.

If it is according to Liu Meng, then the situation is completely different. Under the Yamen of the Fujian Road of the Great Song Dynasty, there will be the Yamen of Fuzhou Tidian Criminal Prison and the Yamen of Quanzhou Tidian Prison, which are responsible for the taxation and inspection work of various states. There will also be such units in the county. The traditional system of the Great Song Dynasty will undergo a comprehensive change.

"What's so bad about running schools in the states and counties?" Wen Tianxiang, the former prefect of Songjiang Prefecture and the current prefect of Hangzhou Prefecture, asked.

"Because there is no way to directly monitor the implementation of the budget." Liu Meng laughed.

"Is it so hard to trust the officials?" Wen Tianxiang said angrily.

"Governor Wen, I think you might as well go to the Maritime Safety Bureau to do a section. There's one thing you'll learn over there, that no one can trust unconditionally. In the face of interests, under unregulated conditions, anyone will put money into their own pockets. Even if there is regulation, it cannot be left unchecked......"

"Minister Liu, of course I know this. In our Great Song system, various departments are not allowed to hold absolute power, that is, they can supervise each other. If the governors of all walks of life are able to appoint and dismiss officials at all levels, then wouldn't all the way become his family. So the thing you're talking about is precisely the separation of powers. Wen Tianxiang made a generous statement and gave Liu Meng a good lesson in the official system of the Great Song Dynasty.

The faces of those officials who were born as jinshi showed brilliance, especially the Ministry of Rites, which sang against the Ministry of Education. Xiong Shang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, felt that he was angry, as if it was himself who reprimanded Liu Meng.

Liu Meng wanted to interrupt Wen Tianxiang as well, but when he saw Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Guanjia shaking their heads slightly, he held back. After Wen Tianxiang finished speaking, Liu Meng said: "What you said is that you are afraid that officials will do wrong." In my opinion, the failure of officials to do their work is also a major matter that needs to be monitored. And the supervision is not so simple, the prefect of Wen, I have a bidding system in the Song Dynasty, and those officials hand over the project to his relatives and then subcontract it layer by layer. Be sure to prepare for this beforehand! ”

The words are so clear, that is to break the rules. After listening to Minister Liu Meng's words, the court was temporarily silent. This kind of is very easy to understand. There is a bidding system in our Great Song Dynasty, because there is no state-owned construction company, so we have to invite bids for construction. Because there are no special state farms, bidding is required for land contracting.

The state-owned enterprises of the Great Song Dynasty were not so much state-owned enterprises as they were industry monopoly guilds controlled by the imperial court and with royal status. This thing has been destroyed by the Mongol invasion. Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Guanjia built new state-owned enterprises according to the system they saw, and these enterprises undertook mass production. So the bidding system is still there, but the bidding objects are very different. The former private sector has not had such a good time. Especially the Jinshi officials who have channels.

"When the water is clear, there are no fish!" Wen Tianxiang began to speak.

At this time, in the eyes of Xiong Shang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Wen Tianxiang's figure was tall enough to support the sky. If it were someone else, probably wouldn't have been able to say such things so deeply and firmly.

Wen Tianxiang continued: "Everyone has a desire for profit. If you don't make money, that's not the right way. ”

Liu Meng has long responded to this kind of words, but Wen Tianxiang's description of the system is even more difficult to deal with. Wen Tianxiang didn't say much, to put it bluntly, it was the routine of not "competing with the people". Because many projects are carried out by the Jinshi family, state-owned enterprises can overwhelm private companies if such a strict censorship system is adopted. The interests of the Jinshi family were greatly damaged. Wen Tianxiang felt that the people should not be weakened too much.

Just when the controversy was about to erupt, Zhao Jiaren spoke, "These are not big deals, I think the top priority now is to complete the construction of the school as soon as possible." Those children are a year late for school and are delayed by a year. If they could go to school at the age of six, they would be twelve years old if they were six years old. Generally speaking, you can go to junior high school at this age. Even if you come out to work to make a living, you will finish junior high school. So I don't think it's okay to drag it out at this point. ”

For Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Guan's family, what he wants is to produce students in large quantities. Middle. Even if you come out to work to make a living, you will finish junior high school. So I don't think it's okay to drag it out at this point. ”

For Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Guan's family, what he wants is to produce students in large quantities. Chapter 35
