Chapter 247: Wang Yongji takes office
Zhejiang, Zhejiang's Governor's Palace.
At this moment, Zheng Michang was sitting on the top, and after looking up and down at Wang Yongji, who looked like a scholar, asked.
"The fish talisman and the body are all on you, right?"
"Report to your Excellency, it's all on you."
After Wang Yongji finished speaking, he immediately sent two things to Zheng Michang with great respect.
After Zheng Michang confirmed that his identity was correct, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip, and said.
"Hai Rui, the former magistrate of Chun'an County, still lives in the city, if you don't understand anything, just ask him!"
"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your advice."
Seeing this, Wang Yongji hurriedly saluted Zheng Michang respectfully.
"Okay, after the debriefing, you can take office immediately!"
"This official still has official business to deal with later, so I won't talk to you more."
After Zheng Michang finished speaking, he waved his hand, and then sent Wang Yongji out of the Governor's Palace.
At the moment of stepping out of the Governor's Palace, Wang Yongji looked at the bustling crowd on the side of the street and the vendors selling along the street, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"It is said that this land of Zhejiang is rich and prosperous, and when I see it today, it is true!"
After the emotion was finished, Wang Yongji embarked on the road to Chun'an County.
……
At this moment, the county government of Chun'an County, everyone is quite uneasy! There is no other reason, today is the time when the new king of Chun'an Zhixian County will take office.
In the county office, several officials gathered and whispered.
"By the way, today is the day when the new magistrate is officially inaugurated, right?"
"Yes, alas, I don't know what the temperament of this new magistrate is, if it is like the previous officials, then the people of Chun'an County will suffer!"
"Yes, it's rare to see a good official like Lord Hai Rui, but it's a pity ......"
Just as several officials were discussing energetically, a figure appeared coldly behind everyone.
"What are you talking about here? Don't go to work yet! ”
"By the way, clean up the entire county government inside and out, if you make the new magistrate unhappy, I will definitely not spare you."
When these officials followed the prestige, they saw that the chief secretary of the county government was holding his hands behind his back, pointing and commanding.
"Yes, let's do it!"
When several officials heard this, they reluctantly began their work.
At this moment, Wang Yongji appeared at the gate of the county government of Chun'an County with a burden on his back, and the official at the door immediately stopped him and asked.
"What for?"
"This official is the new magistrate of Chun'an County who came to take office, Wang Yongji."
Faced with the officer's inquiry, Wang Yongji replied unhurriedly.
"I've seen Lord Zhixian later!"
Seeing this, the official in charge of guarding the door hurriedly knelt on the ground and said respectfully.
"No need, just go in and let me know."
Wang Yongji waved his hand and said casually.
"Yes, Lord Zhixian!"
Seeing this, the officials on the side hurriedly informed everyone in the county government of the news.
After a while, everyone in the county government gathered together and waited for Wang Yongji, the new magistrate, to give a lecture.
There is a way that the new official has taken office with three fires, and at this moment, everyone in the county government is a little uneasy in their hearts.
"This official is the new magistrate of Chun'an County, Wang Yongji!"
"Before I came, this official had already inquired around, and Hai Rui, the former magistrate of Chun'an County, was an out-and-out good official who governed the entire Chun'an County in an orderly manner."
"Therefore, you don't have to worry that there will be no big change in the general policy policy."
"I hope that you can perform your duties in your respective positions, work hard, and strive to better benefit the people.
When Wang Yongji said this, he couldn't help but raise his voice.
At this moment, everyone in the county government was relieved to see that Wang Yongji, the new magistrate of the county, did not make major changes as soon as he came up, and tossed around.
"My lord, please come with your subordinates, the former magistrate, the official uniform and seal ribbon left behind are over there."
Seeing this, the master bookkeeper on the side stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Hmm."
Wang Yongji nodded, and then followed the pace of the master book and entered the county office.
Soon, under the leadership of the main book, Wang Yongji got the seal of the county magistrate and changed into an official uniform.
"Give the booklet of Chun'an County to the official!"
After Wang Yongji finished doing this, the first thing he did was to ask the master to bring to him the account books that recorded the expenses of Chun'an County, as well as the books of relief, land, money and grain, population, taxes, and so on.
After Wang Yongji checked them one by one, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The predecessor of the county governor Hai Rui, not only did not leave any deficit, but also had a lot of surplus in the treasury!
"Report to the county magistrate, here is the former county magistrate Hai Rui, some of the humanistic customs and experiences of Chun'an County!"
Seeing this, the master booklet on the side hurriedly took out a booklet with a respectful expression.
"Well, bring it to the official!"
Immediately afterwards, the king took the pamphlet from the master's hand and opened it.
"This official Hai Rui is the magistrate of Chun'an County, and the following is the humanistic customs of Chun'an County, as well as some of the experience of this official in governing Chun'an County, I hope to be able to give some help to those who come after."
"Chun'an County currently has a total population of ......"
Wang Yongji quickly became fascinated, and there is no doubt that the content recorded in the manual will be extremely important for the next governance, and it will save him a lot of detours!
"This Hai Rui is really a good official!"
After a long time, I saw Wang Yongji slowly put down the booklet in his hand and muttered to himself silently.
……
Quanzhou, Fujian.
Since Yang Zongtai returned to Quanzhou from Nanzhili, a period of time has passed.
Because he was very familiar with the environment here, the work of the county government was soon on the right track.
In the county office, Yang Zongtai is handling related official business.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door from outside, and after getting Yang Zongtai's answer, someone walked in and said respectfully.
"Report to your lordship, this is a new notice from the Ministry of Officials!"
"Oh, bring it and let the official see it."
When Yang Zongtai heard this, he immediately took the envelope from the hands of his subordinates and opened it, only to see that the contents on it were.
"At present, the imperial court has reopened the port of Quanzhou as a treaty port with Fanbang merchants!"
"The matter of sea trade is very big, and it is closely related to the imperial court tax! Therefore, Yang Zongtai, the magistrate of Quanzhou Prefecture, was temporarily given the power to adjudicate maritime trade disputes at his discretion. ”
"In the future, when the Department of Maritime Trade officially sets up a yamen in Quanzhou, it will take back its power."
Yang Zongtai couldn't help frowning after reading the above content.
There are two pieces of news delivered above, first, they will have the power to adjudicate maritime trade disputes, and second, the maritime trade department will soon set up a relevant yamen in Quanzhou.
The power to adjudicate maritime trade disputes sounds very majestic, but the degree of this is really difficult to grasp, and if it is slightly biased, it is easy to offend people!
If it affects the tax revenue of the imperial court, I am afraid that the first person to be held accountable at that time will be himself.
"No wonder recently, many colleagues who joined the company at the same time as me and have not been in contact with me for many years have been writing letters to this official one by one!"
"It turns out that people have gotten the news about this early."
It was not until this moment that Yang Zongtai sorted out the reasons for the matter.
Immediately, Yang Zongtai turned out the letters that asked for warmth and threw them aside.
