Are you, Lin Tailai, mentally ill? You came here just to say these words?
Walking outside the door, Lin Tailai asked the factory guard officer who was "eavesdropping" outside the door:
"Did you all take note of what I just said? As today's secret report, report it to Dongchang.
What is the name of Mr. Sun of the new factory? Forget it, it doesn’t matter what his name is. If he is sensible, he should report these words of mine to the emperor!"
The next day, Emperor Wanli, who recalled "blaming Chen Shan" and had some expectations, issued an order to the cabinet to promote Yu Shenxing, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, to the minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Ever since Shen Li ran away with the bucket, the position of Minister of Rites that had been vacant for more than a month was finally filled.
Shen Shoufu looked at the decree and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
It is understandable to use certain small things to influence the emperor's decision-making. It is a method of making a big difference.
But how did Lin Tailai know so much about the old affairs of the inner court more than ten years ago?
Yu Shenxing moved from the left hall in the backyard of the Ministry of Rites to the main hall, but he was not happy at all.
When the country is in catastrophe, how long can you sit in this cannon fodder position? Half a year? One year?
And although the office location has changed, the people blocking the door remain the same.
Lin Tailai stood outside the door and shouted loudly: "Yu Shangshu! How did you get this official position? You didn't rely on my help, Lin Tailai!"
Is it possible that you are ungrateful and insist on preventing me from being promoted to the Ministry of Rites?"
"Get out!" An inkstone flew out from the main hall of the Ministry of Rites.
So there was new gossip in the official circles of the capital, and people's words were frightening.
Two days later, Lin Tailai's appointment was officially issued, and Lin Tailai could finally join the Ministry of Etiquette.
The Secretary of the Department of Rites and Affairs, who was in charge of miscellaneous matters, was at the gate to welcome the newly appointed host and guest doctor, Lin Tailai.
To the Ministry of Rites, Lin Tailai is the most familiar newcomer.
"I wonder if Mr. Lin has any other instructions?" the secretary asked.
Lin Tailai replied casually: "I think the security of the Ministry of Rites is too poor. I want to organize the officers and soldiers stationed at the Ministry of Rites to conduct training."
Secretary: ""
Is this a joke? This must be a joke, right?
There are many foreign offices affiliated to the Ministry of Rites, such as Taichang Temple, Imperial College, Honglu Temple, Jiaofang Division, Huitong Hall, etc., all of which listen to the orders of the Ministry of Rites.
However, the Ministry of Rites headquarters does not have many internal institutions and the number of personnel is not large, so it is a bit empty, and the office space per person is not small.
Arriving at the courtyard where the Host and Guest Office belonged, Lin Tailai entered the main hall and had three rooms to himself, so he took office.
Except for a few scribes, no subordinate officials came to see the newly appointed doctor.
It's not that these subordinate officials are deliberately neglectful, but that there are currently no subordinate officials at all.
Previously, the host and guest department had been cleared, and no other subordinate officials were added until the doctor confirmed it.
While Lin Tailai was sitting in the main hall in a daze, he, together with the ambassador and deputy envoys, came to see the new chief, and they also brought a large pile of official documents on Korean affairs.
When he heard that it was "North Korea affairs", Lin Tailai's eyes lit up. Isn't that the reason for working in the Host and Guest Department?
He quickly took over a large stack of official documents and read them with interest. What he saw inside was: "The next batch of North Korean envoys have entered Shanhaiguan and will arrive in the capital soon.
In order to receive the mission, the Huitong Pavilion needs to prepare some wine, some pork, some firewood, some horse grass, and some waiters."
The imaginary business of host and guest: scolding Fang Qiu to guide the country, draw a diplomatic blueprint, and establish a new world pattern.
Real-life host-customer business: firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, horse and grass, restaurant owner
Lin Tailai put down the official document in his hand dissatisfied, "Do you need me to take care of these trivial matters?"
The ambassador of the Huitong Pavilion cautiously replied: "There should have been a director responsible for supervising the affairs of the Huitong Pavilion, but now that there is no one, we had to alert Mr. Lin.
Moreover, when the mission arrives, I will ask you to come forward and count the tribute items."
Lin Tailai instructed: "North Korean missions can come in several batches every year, right? Everything should be done as usual!"
To say which vassal state is the most diligent in pilgrimage, it is definitely North Korea. According to statistics, it sent more than a thousand missions throughout the Ming Dynasty, an average of several times a year.
It is most basic to send envoys to pay tribute during the winter solstice, New Year's Day, Wanshou and other major festivals every year, and other additional missions will depend on the situation.
After sending away the ambassador, Lin Tailai thought it was time to add more officials from the host and guest department.
Otherwise, if you have to take part in even trivial matters, how can you still have the energy to think strategically and make decisions?
Suddenly, I thought of my friends of the same year who were still interning in government administration. Can I appoint two of them to be in charge?
For most Jinshi, the first step in the officialdom is to stay in the capital rather than go outside, especially if you are an official in the Sixth Ministry, it is definitely a golden start.
