The dormitory that Li Xiao intends to establish is actually a community from later generations.

At first, it was called the village committee, but with the gradual adjustment and change, it gradually became the neighborhood committee, and then the community, which is the most perfect form of the system.

Li Xiao naturally wants to start with the best model.

Li Xiao's Dong'an County has jurisdiction over the underground, with a total of 13 townships and 65 villages.

This is not a small number, and of course it cannot be all set up at once.

He plans to start with five villages as a pilot.

Each dormitory is assigned a dormitory head and a deputy dormitory head, who is responsible for coordinating and planning all work.

This person needs a little work ability and courage, so it is necessary to choose a capable person, and of course Li Xiao will also guide the work and help them get started quickly.

Then 3 clerks and 3-5 grid clerks are needed to manage the villagers.

A dormitory requires 8-10 people.

Then there is the need to build a big house in the village, add seats, and use it as an office space.

Although it will be a little hard in the early stage, once things are on the right track, you can directly assign the dormitory to do things such as taxation, uploading and disseminating, managing villagers, and collecting taxes in the future.

He, the county master, can be a hands-off shopkeeper.

"Xiaolang, look at the accounts."

"Five quarters were established, and the upfront expenses were added to one year's staff remuneration."

"It will cost a thousand taels of silver."

At this time, Zhu Ningyun was writing and drawing with a brush next to him, and budgeted out the silver taels he needed.

Leaving to look at the accounts, where to spend money, it is clearly written at a glance, and even the transportation costs of carriages and horses are written in a note.

"Well, Ning Yun, you are really my good helper."

Li Xiao smiled: "In the future, I will have you to run the house, I can rest assured." ”

Zhu Ningyun nodded gently, "What's this, it's still Xiaolang, you have worked hard"

It's not enough to just have a dormitory, Li Xiao still has to think about letting the dormitory have the ability to make money, Li Xiao has too many ideas to make money in his heart.

Money is endless, and it is impossible to make money every day.

If you can make money from these ideas and invest in the establishment of village enterprises in the district, you will have the ability to pay for your own profits and losses.

In addition, just inject a little more money and earn a little fraction.

So, Li Xiao added another sum to the account, and added a sum of 1,000 taels of entrepreneurship funds to the cost of each dormitory.

Then the silver taels needed became six thousand taels.

The next step is to go to the silver bank to borrow money.

In fact, Li Xiao can take out six thousand taels of silver himself.

But Li Xiao doesn't want to do this, there must be a rule for everything, public affairs, how to come, how to come, I, Li Xiao, do things with brains, not money.

"What? In the name of the county government to go to the money bank to borrow money?? Borrow five thousand taels? ”

When he heard the news, Mei Xiancheng was stunned.

Can you still do this?

"Can't the yamen ask the money bank to borrow money? It's not that you don't pay it back. ”

Li Xiao didn't bother to explain too much, and ordered: "Come with me, with the official seal, I also need your signature and pledge." ”

Meixian Cheng: "???? ”

Obviously, a hundred unwilling on his face.

Li Xiao said angrily: "I am a liuguan, and I can't count the signatures and paintings, of course it's you, the old county man." How? I can't call you, can I? ”

"Can I borrow money?"

"If you can borrow it or not, you will know if you go."

Soon, Li Xiao took Meixian Cheng to a large money village named Shen Ji in Beiping City to borrow money.

Li Xiao had never been to this money village, he didn't want to reveal the identity of King Yan's son-in-law, and wanted to see if he could borrow money with the name of the yamen.

After arriving at the bank, the people inside were warmly welcomed.

After learning that they were the officials of the Yamen, Shen Ji's people were a little surprised, and it was the first time they saw the Yamen come to the money bank to borrow money.

They discussed it behind their backs and decided to borrow!

The yamen is backed by the imperial court, can it owe money and not pay it back?

We were the first to borrow money from the yamen and spread it, and this reputation is also great!

So, in less than half an hour, six thousand taels of silver were borrowed.

"Oh my God, I really borrowed money"

Mei Xiancheng looked at the silver ticket in his hand and couldn't believe it.

He asked worriedly: "If I signed my name just now, if I can't get it, will you ask me for an account?"

Li Xiao smiled: "Don't worry, although you signed it, but in the name of the yamen, you are at most ineffective, and there is nothing you can do if you don't pay for it." At most, I will beat you a few times to relieve your hatred. ”

Meixian Cheng: "."

Seeing that the other party looked bitter, Li Xiao patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, even if you really can't pay it back, it's only six thousand taels, and the official rubs some mud from his body is more than that." ”

Hearing this, Mei Xiancheng looked soothed and felt much more relieved.

That's right, Lord Zhixian is the son-in-law of King Yan.

How magnificent that mansion is, how rich the dowry, six thousand taels of silver is an astronomical amount for himself, but it is a fart for the magistrate.

"Okay, you take the money back to the yamen to enter the account, I won't go back to the yamen, I haven't returned to Beiping for a few days, and the official has to go home to rest for a while."

Li Xiao instructed: "Be careful on the road, don't lose the silver, your main job during this time is to build the office space of those five villages according to the drawings given to you by the official, understand?" ”

Li Xiao had already drawn the office drawings, and the layout included an office hall sitting at the window facing the masses to serve, an office, a residents' conflict mediation room, a large conference room used by residents, and so on.

"The subordinate officer takes the order." Meixian Cheng gave up.

"Well, you've performed well during this time, do a good job, and the benefits are indispensable to you."

Li Xiao nodded, and then asked, "How much is your annual income?" ”

Meixian Cheng arched his hand and said: "Back to the adult's words, the official year is fifty taels, but there are twenty taels of Daming treasure money, you know, the treasure money is not worth much, so the year is only thirty-five taels."

Li Xiao nodded slightly, his own salary was eighty taels,

And a horseman in the Ming Dynasty, working hard, can earn twenty or thirty taels of silver a year.

In this way, the officials of the Ming Dynasty were really not wealthy.

He thought for a while and said, "You work hard, this official will not treat you badly, and after a while, your treatment will be raised, ranging from five to twenty silver according to your rank." ”

Hearing this, Meixian Cheng and a few officials with knives lit up their eyes.

Mei Xiancheng said excitedly: "Really? ”

Li Xiao smiled: "Does the official still have jokes? ”

Mei Xiancheng was excited, but frowned again: "Could it be the Daming treasure banknote?" ”

Li Xiao smiled: "Silver." ”

Meixian Cheng was overjoyed, and said worriedly: "Where is the money?"

Li Xiao: "Why are you 100,000, this official has his own way." ”

Only by improving the treatment of officials can the last elimination system have a real effect.

As a result, people are even more reluctant to lose their jobs.

Moreover, Li Xiao felt that the treatment of officials was too low, which was also one of the reasons why this group of people were grinding foreign workers and fishing.

The officials present showed a look of envy, and one of them dared to bow his hand and said, "May I ask my lord. Do we have a part in the officials? ”

Li Xiao nodded: "Of course you have a share, not only you, but also the dormitory staff who are about to be established will have a higher salary than now." ”

Hearing this, the officials excitedly bowed their hands: "My lord, we will do a good job!" ”

Li Xiao nodded slightly.

These people have been tortured by themselves for more than ten days, although they have complaints in private, but they dare not say it on the surface, so they can only do it.

Because Li Xiao is Zhu Di's son-in-law, no one dares to disobey Li Xiao's wishes.

Of course, there are also those who touch the fish, and Li Xiao remembers them all in his heart.

If you can use it, you still have to stay, after all, these officials are familiar with the local situation.

Say who you are, and I will tell you immediately, where this person lives, what he does, and how he behaves, and immediately tell you three or four things.

If you want to work in the county, you really can't do without these officials who have been entrenched in the local area for a long time.

Of course, those bastards who are fishing, unchangeable, and stubborn, Li Xiao, who should be eliminated, will never be soft.

"My lord, with your words, I, Mei Jiale, look forward to it as an adult."

With the monetary incentive, Mei Xiancheng felt that the suffering he suffered some time ago was worth it.

Li Xiao continued: "By the way, I will also explain one thing to you, that is, the vacation system, in the future, I will take two days off on Friday every week, work for five days, and take six and seven days as a normalized rest day, and someone needs to be arranged on duty on the rest day." In addition, various festivals should also be closed. You should also arrange someone to be on duty, you go back and arrange a duty schedule by yourself, and when I go back to the county office, I will start implementing it if I can. ”

Hiss!

Meixian Cheng gasped.

Five days off and two days off?

Two days off every seven days??

Closed on holidays?

That's cool, isn't it!!

Mei Xiancheng said excitedly: "My lord, is this true?" ”

Li Xiao nodded: "Seriously." ”

Being an official in the Ming Dynasty was very hard, because Zhu Yuanzhang was a workaholic, and he thought that all officials in the world should be like him.

State, government, and county officials only have two vacation opportunities per year.

They are the winter solstice and the summer solstice.

You can ask for leave under special circumstances, such as the death or illness of a loved one in the family.

Central officials generally have more vacation time than local officials, but it is also relatively limited.

They can enjoy three holidays a year, namely the Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival, and each vacation lasts about 5 days.

Other words

The officials of the whole Ming Dynasty, almost 365 days a year without rest, were involved in death

Li Xiao naturally wouldn't be so rolled, and of course he couldn't take a vacation alone.

Otherwise, in the future, how can his subordinates lead the team when they see themselves fishing for three days and drying nets for two days?

I simply took everyone on vacation.

Now, everyone is even more excited.

That's more allure than money.

There is time to rest every week, to go back to compensate for my wife and children, to have fun and relax

You must know that before that, they were in the county yamen every day, although they didn't do much, but their time was spent in the yamen.

"My lord. Can we change this system of recuperation set by the imperial court casually? ”

Mei Jiale was excited, but she still expressed her worries.

Li Xiao: "Let me ask you, who cares in Beiping?" ”

Mei Xiancheng: "Of course it's King Yan." ”

Li Xiao: "Then who is in charge of Dong'an County?" ”

Mei Xiancheng: "Of course you are the good son-in-law of King Yan, my lord." ”

"Isn't that the end of it?"

Li Xiao glanced at him and said, "The official is in charge, is there a problem?" ”

"No problem, no problem."

Mei Xiancheng shook his head, his eyes smiling into a slit.

There were too many surprises today, and he couldn't accept them for a while.

"Okay, the official won't send you, go back to the house to rest, you can do it yourself."

After speaking, Li Xiao took Zhu Ningyun and walked towards the Li Mansion.

Speaking of which, I haven't been home for more than half a month, and I should go back to rest and rest, and I've lived a married life, and I'm about to suffocate.

"My lord, you go slowly."

Meixian bowed down and watched Li Xiao's back disappear before slowly standing up.

Well, great!

Only by doing things like this can you have passion.

Mei Xiancheng suddenly felt that he was in good spirits now, and he just wanted to go back immediately and handle the things that Li Xiao explained one by one.

Thinking that he still had a huge sum of six thousand taels of silver on him, he hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"Hurry up, surround the official, and protect the official back to the county office."

Several county officials were caught quickly, and they were ready to fight, surrounded Meixian Cheng Tuantuan, and walked in the direction of the county government of Dong'an County.

"Master Mei, I suddenly feel that Lord Li is kind and kissable."

A catcher whispered, obviously he complained privately not long ago, Lord Li was too ruthless, and the angels called them and didn't treat them as human beings.

"yes, I feel that way too."

Another catcher said: "Actually, I can accept the intensity of this work now, mainly because I can rest for two days, if I can rest for two days, then five days of tiredness is nothing." ”

"It's good to add more than ten taels of silver a year, for our sake!"

Another catcher recognized Li Xiao.

Meixian Cheng said: "Don't be happy too early, don't forget, there is also the last elimination system, it's not good, Lord Li is not emotional." ”

As soon as they heard the elimination system at the end, the people who were a little fluttering just now felt a little pressure in their hearts.

Such a good treatment can't be the same as before, and it must not be eliminated.

"I've seen the head of the house, the county lord."

"The head of the family, the lord of the county, you are back."

Li Xiao and Zhu Ningyun nodded slightly, stepped into the mansion, and finally returned to the mansion.

"Husband, I've been busy for more than half a month, let's go back and rest first."

"Well, I'm a little tired, go back to my room and rest."

As soon as they returned to the mansion, the two tacitly walked towards the main house.

Everyone who understands understands, newlywed Yan'er.

"Li Gongzi, you can count it back."

Tian Zhiwei walked over excitedly.

He is the boss who was bombed by Li Xiao, and he has been accepted by Li Xiao as a guest of the house, and he has been assigned an errand for shipbuilding.

He discussed and researched with Ma He every day, and drew a design for a large ship.

Now he is waiting for Li Xiao in the mansion every day and letting him make up his mind.

No, I walked around the house in the past few days, and I saw Li Xiao at a glance.

"What's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow, this official has been busy for half a month and needs to rest."

Li Xiao waved his hand as he walked.

Tian Zhiwei: "."

Walk with the wind.

Along the way, Li Xiao and Zhu Ningyun went directly back to the main house.

"Husband."

"Ma'am."

As soon as the two entered the house and closed the door, they were a little impatient.

"Husband, during this time, you have worked hard for the people."

Saying that, Zhu Ningyun picked up the teapot and prepared to pour tea for Li Xiao.

"Madame. It's important to get down to business. ”

Li Xiao picked up Ning Yun and planned to throw him on the bed.

Zhu Ningyun looked shy, after getting married, he liked Li Xiao's domineering more and more, which was irresistible.

Young people, dry firewood burns at one point, can understand.

Bang bang bang!!

At that moment, there was a violent knock on the door.

Li Xiao looked displeased and shouted, "Who, didn't you say that you can't see anyone?" ”

Bang bang bang!

The knock on the door continued.

It rings non-stop.

"Husband, let's go and see, who is so ignorant in the house."

Zhu Ningyun was also a little displeased, which person dared to knock on the door like this?

Hey, Li Xiao's little temper also came up, got up and walked to the door, and scolded while opening the door: "I want to see who is so bold, I have to say hello to my father-in-law and mother-in-law today."

The people standing outside the door were none other than Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Xu Miaoyun, the princess of Yan.

"What did you just say? Why do you have to? ”

Zhu Di frowned and stared at Li Xiaodao.

"I'm going to surprise my father-in-law."

Li Xiao estimated that Ning Yun's matter was going to be confessed, which could be regarded as a surprise.

"You surprise this king, what surprise?"

Zhu Di stared at Li Xiao, "Li Xiao, don't rely on this king to spoil you and treat you as a son, you can do anything wrong and say, where did this king's daughter Ning Yun go?" ”

Xu Miaoyun pushed Zhu Di, eased the atmosphere, and looked at Li Xiao, "Son-in-law, you can explain to the prince well, what's going on with this righteous brother, why is he in your room?" Where did Ning Yun go during this time? ”

didn't wait for Li Xiao to explain.

A voice came, causing Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun to stay in place.

"Father, mother."

Zhu Ningyun walked over, took off his hair bundle, and three thousand green silks were scattered, lightly drawing his eyebrows, brown eyes, and red blood, and the beauty did not eat the fireworks of the world.

She made a blessing ceremony, and a woman's light voice came out: "Daughter Ning Yun, I have seen my father and my mother." ”

The voice fell.

The whole room was silent, and the sound of falling pins could be heard, except for the breathing of a few people.

Zhu Di and Zhu Ningyun looked at the woman in front of them incredulously.

The voice is my daughter's voice!

It's her, it's really her, it's her own daughter Ning Yun!

Although I have grown up, I am still in that mold!

Absolutely not.

Daughter's physiognomy. Restored ???

This, this, this.

Zhu Ningyun was the first to explain: "Father, Queen and Mother, on the wedding night, Xiaolang performed earth-shattering medical skills to restore his daughter's appearance, and even her body and bones were restored. blames the daughter for worrying her father and mother. ”

At this time, Zhu Di and Zhu Ningyun's mood was like a storm crashing on the shore, with ups and downs.

It's so exciting, it's so shocking!

Zhu Di's eyes were obviously enlarged a little bit, and he was speechless.

Xu Miaoyun took Ning Yun's hand and said excitedly: "Ning Yun, is it really you?" ”

Zhu Ningyun, as usual, held her mother's hand and said affectionately: "It's a daughter, you are not mistaken, mother, I. Really regained its appearance."

As she spoke, Zhu Ningyun's nose was sour, and crystal tears swirled in her eyes.

Xu Miaoyun's hands trembled slightly, she couldn't believe the appearance of this moment, as if she was dreaming.

The son-in-law is simply a man of God, how to do it, it's too incredible.

But the truth is right in front of her, and it is her daughter in front of her, and she can't be wrong.

"Daughter, you have suffered all these years, but fortunately, you have come to the bitterness."

"Well, it's hard to come by."

Mother and daughter hugged each other, Xu Miaoyun was moved to cry, "God bless, Bodhisattva bless, let my daughter recover, great, great"

Zhu Di also came back to his senses, was pleasantly surprised, and laughed: "Princess, what kind of bodhisattva blesses, this is obviously Li Xiao's credit." ”

Zhu Di looked at Li Xiao excitedly and said: "You kid, you're right, it's really a surprise to this king, this king knows that you won't treat my daughter badly!" ”

As he spoke, he excitedly grabbed Li Xiao's shoulders and held them like brothers, "Just now, this king didn't scare you, right?" ”

Li Xiao touched his chest, "I'm a little scared, oops"

Zhu Di caressed Li Xiao's back intimately, "Is it better?" ”

Li Xiao felt that it was okay to be skinned, and nodded hurriedly: "Father-in-law, it's much better." ”

Zhu Di was in a good mood. "Oh, I really didn't expect that your kid still has this medical skill, no wonder your mother doesn't cough at all now, it's all thanks to you."

"Li Xiao has only recently figured out how to restore his appearance, luck, luck." Li Xiao explained indiscriminately.

Zhu Di glanced at the two people over there who hugged each other and complained about their liver and sausages, didn't bother, and turned his head to look at Li Xiao: "Come, let's go out and talk." ”

"Let's go!"

Li Xiao followed Yan Wang Zhu Di out.

Along the way, King Yan kept praising Li Xiao, and his joy was overflowing.

He really likes Li Xiao too much, and he has too many surprises for him.

Especially this time, he didn't believe that Li Xiao was this kind of person, but then he was a little suspicious, and now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, his mood is like a roller coaster.

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, this king is really wrong to blame him."

"This son-in-law, you must believe him in everything in the future."

Zhu Di thought like this, and wandered around this mansion with Li Xiao.

"By the way, Li Xiao, I heard that you are in a hot state in Dong'an County, what kind of dormitory area are you going to do in the village?"

After Zhu Di praised Li Xiao for a while, he talked to Li Xiao about officialdom.

Li Xiao nodded, "Yes, isn't my father-in-law optimistic?" ”

Zhu Di patted Li Xiao on the shoulder, "No, this king is very optimistic!" It's very groundbreaking, do it well, and it doesn't matter if you mess it up. If you smash it, let's change a county for you to be the magistrate, and you will understand how to be an official if you try more. ”

Zhu Di still wanted to believe in Li Xiao, but after thinking about it, Li Xiao is indeed talented in other aspects, but it is not necessary to be an official.

But it doesn't matter, with him, with his own power, coupled with Li Xiao's intelligence, he can definitely be cultivated.

Li Xiao: "."

Isn't that still not optimistic?

"Father-in-law, I think I can do a good job, and the establishment of the dormitory can make the imperial court better managed."

Before Li Xiao finished speaking, Zhu Di waved his hand to interrupt.

"Actually, these are small things, and it doesn't matter if you do it well or not."

The two came to the pavilion by the lake, and Zhu Di sat down with a heavy heart.

"Father-in-law, what do you have to say?" Li Xiao asked.

Zhu Di nodded, looked at Li Xiao, and said, "You are also our own family, and there is nothing to hide, so I will give you a thorough explanation."

Li Xiao nodded and sat down as well.

Zhu Di said slowly: "There is news that the prince is now the eldest brother of this king, Zhu Biao, who is about to die, and this king is already preparing to fight for the position of prince."

After speaking, he looked at Li Xiao and said, "Do you think this king should fight?" ”

Li Xiao was slightly stunned.

That's a big deal!
