On April 18, he officially took office as the Minister of Revenue.

The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Rites live next to the Ministry of Rites. On the right is the Ministry of Personnel. There is a crossing road between the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel. The crossing road leads to the back Department of Works, Ministry of War, Imperial Hospital and Imperial Heaven Supervision.

Central Government Office.

Since Lin Qingran came to take office today, Ma Sen, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Huang Yangmeng, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, were already waiting in front of the yamen, waiting for the new minister to take office.

In addition to the left and right ministers, the Ministry of Revenue has a thirteen department head, which is divided into the thirteen department heads, including Zhejiang, Huguang, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Guangdong, Shandong, Fujian, Henan, Shanxi, Sichuan, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Yunnan.

Each department has one doctor, the fifth rank; one official, the fifth rank; two persons in charge, the sixth rank. In addition, there are also Zhaomo Station, Guangjikuan, internal and external transportation warehouse, military storage warehouse and other positions.

The responsibilities of each corpus can be divided into four subjects: people, quotas, gold, and warehouse.

Civil Affairs, in charge of provincial governments, prefectures, counties, figures, ancient and modern history, dangerous and easy mountains and rivers, fertile land, wide and narrow, household registration, and many and many products; Du Branch Affairs, in charge of accounting summer tax,

The funds for the storage of autumn grains, transportation, rewards and ranks of money; the financial department is in charge of the collection and discounts of maritime ships, fish, salt, tea, banknote taxes and stolen punishments; the warehouse department is in charge of the transportation of grain, military storage, and cashier grain.

It is precisely because of the numerous affairs that the Ministry of Revenue has a large number of officials, but it is the yamen with the largest number of personnel in the six ministries, and all of these people are waiting here.

"Here you come!"

When Lin Junran's guard of honor appeared, a servant hurriedly ran back from the entrance of the alley to report to the two ministers, and the officials became excited.

As the inauguration of the prefect is different, the inauguration ceremony of the Beijing officials has always been simple.

Although Lin Weiran's guard of honor raised a pair of blinding flags, he did not roar and beat drums, and he seemed to be in a sedan chair in a low-key manner.

Soon, the eight-carrying sedan chair came to the front of the Ministry of Revenue. After slowly landing on the ground, Lin Weiran, wearing a second-grade brand new crimson official uniform, walked out of the sedan chair.

The third-rank civil servant's tonic is a peacock, while the second-rank civil servant's tonic is a golden pheasant. This golden pheasant standing on the bluestone looks particularly majestic.

"The Lord Gonghou, the chief hall of the Xiaguan, took office!"

Ma Sen, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Huang Yangmeng, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, are both from Fujian. Ma Sen is thin, while Huang Yangmeng is short and fat, and he also led the officials to kneel down and worship respectfully.

Lin Qingran looked at the large area of ​​officials in front of him, including familiar figures. There were not only his friend Yang Futian of the same year, Meng Zhao, a student who had just joined the Ministry of Revenue, and a fellow villager from Guangdong, Hai Rui.

This is true in the officialdom, and the relationship between officials seems to be inseparable, especially teachers and students. The relationship between officials and their fellow villagers in the same year made it almost impossible to hide from them.

"Master Ma, Huang, please get up! Everyone, get up!" Lin Qingran stepped forward and helped the two ministers affectionately, and then said lightly to the officials.

After all the officials thanked respectfully, they stood up from the ground one after another, but most of the officials looked at Lin Qingran with complex eyes, including Hai Rui, the head of the Yunnan Department.

"Master, the yamen has been cleaned up. Please move to the office!" Ma Sen is nearly 60 years old, with a thin face, and is quite official. He said gently to Lin Weiran.

Lin Qingran nodded gently, looked up at the door of the Ministry of Revenue, and walked directly into the cleaned Ministry of Revenue.

The Ministry of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Rites Department of Personnel Department of Personnel Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Personnel Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department of Revenue Department

After all, it is the yamen that controls the world's money and food, but it is impossible to treat yourself too badly. Even if it has the tradition of "officials do not repair yamen", it is necessary to regularly renovate some of them.

Lin Weiran walked through the main courtyard and came straight to the main hall to pay homage to the main hall seal. This is the Ministry of Revenue Seal. There is only one in the entire Ministry of Revenue Seal. All official documents of the Ministry of Revenue must be stamped with this seal before they can take effect.

As Lin Qingran sat down in the hall, the officials came forward to pay their respects one after another, and they took the initiative to report their official positions and names.

The Ministry of Rites has only four departments, but the Ministry of Revenue has thirteen departments. It is the yamen with the six departments with the most department-level officials, so Lin Weiran was unable to record all of them all at once.

But he probably had some speculations, since the Ministry of Revenue also adhered to the principle of being an official in another place, usually the southerners were in charge of the northern province and the northerners were in charge of the southern province, but there were rules to follow. In addition, Yang Futian, Mengzhao and Hai Rui were both

It will take several days for people who are familiar with me to remember everything.

The officials bowed to Lin Han one by one and then quietly returned to their positions, quietly waiting for the speech of the new Shangshu who had already become famous all over the world.

Lin Qingran looked at the officials in front of him and knew that the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Rites were different.

The Ministry of Rites mainly focuses on the imperial examination, education and reception of foreign guests, and is considered a relatively in-depth job. Many things can be done step by step, so a good person like Li Chunfang can manage the Ministry of Rites well.

On the other hand, the Ministry of Revenue was in charge of the money and grain of the Ming Dynasty and had direct business transactions with the Thirteen Provinces. It not only required more flexible and flexible means, but also involved huge amounts of money, but it needed more iron-fisted means to manage the Ministry of Revenue well.

If you want to do more, you need even more iron-fisted means.

Lin Junran's face was slightly upright, and he said to the officials present: "Ben Zhengtang has just taken office. Although he is not familiar with the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue, Ben Zhengtang wants to make three rules with you first. You all have to follow it. This move is to be a ritual first and then a soldier.

also!"

Since the Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is a permanent member of Tongzhou and the Governor of Warehouse Management, the Left Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will often go to the Nine Borders to supervise military pay, the Ministry of Revenue no longer has a clear division of labor between the left and right ministers, and usually the Minister of Revenue is in charge of everything.

The officials had already learned about Lin Yanran's official style, and now they had learned about this iron face hall up close. They also secretly sweated and responded in unison with each other, "Please give me advice from the Lord of the Hall,

The official must obey it!”

Lin Qingran nodded slightly and said seriously: "I heard that officials are often absent from time to time. I will not investigate how they were in vain in the past. However, from the day when I took office in the main hall, I must not be absent from the day I will take office for no reason. The foreigners will return to Beijing.

Those who return to Beijing at the latest will come to our headquarters to report at the Mao hour the next day. Those who pass the way will be punished according to Taizu's customization!"

When many officials in the hall heard Lin Weiran holding on to the attendance, they immediately complained in their hearts.

The Ministry of Revenue has a lot of affairs and requires a strong professionalism. Therefore, many officials are actually stumbled when they go to the Ministry of Revenue, and there are many absenteeism. Many officials who return from other places have left for a long time, so they

I will reunite with my family for a few days before I will come slowly to report.

Facing such a strict Xinzhengtang, the officials also obediently responded: "The officials must follow the instructions of the Lord Zhengtang!"

Lin Weiran saw the reactions of the people and continued selflessly: "The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the money and food affairs of the Ming Dynasty. Each department is responsible for a province. The affairs are extremely complicated, and those who are not in charge of the service cannot be taken care of! Today, the Thirteen Department Langs

The whole spirit must be focused on affairs. Today's affairs are completed today. If it is late, it will be late, and it will be the beginning of chaos. In the future, the main hall will set a lower limit. If the deadline is not decided, the demerit will be recorded. If there are too many demerits, the demerits will be recorded...

It's right!"

This... the doctor is dereliction of duty?

When the officials heard this, when they felt Lin Qinran's iron bowl, they also looked at the thirteen doctors secretly with pity. However, they never expected that Lin Qinran's first axe slashed at the thirteen doctors.

.

The Ministry of Revenue is considered an official with a high status in the capital. Although he was unable to ignore the governor directly like the Ministry of Personnel's Imperial College and the Ministry of Personnel College, they were able to control the governor and the government under the jurisdiction of the provincial government.

County-level officials.

But today, they met Lin Weiran, and a knife was hung around their necks.

Lin Qingran is now the Minister of Revenue. It is a foregone conclusion that he will join the cabinet and become the minister in the future. The cabinet has the support of Wu Shan, the second assistant of the dynasty. Once he really wants to transfer a doctor, it is actually a matter of one sentence.

Even if the fight between the parties is not possible, it is impossible to fight another battle for a small soldier. In particular, Xu Jie had already stated that the government affairs were returned to the various departments. In the past, he could have been justified by Yan Ne's subordinates, but now he is likely to be released.

"The Lord of the King of the Lord's Instructions!" The Thirteen Langs complained secretly, but when facing the Xinzhengtang, who is known as innovation, they also bowed helplessly and responded.

They actually understood that Lin Qingran put pressure on their thirteen doctors, and if they wanted to keep their position, they would put pressure on the lower body accordingly.

Lin Qingran saw that the thirteen doctors had a good attitude, so he told him seriously: "If you can't stand being poor, you will not be able to have sex. In the future, the dine-in of the Ministry of Revenue will not be allowed to have a small kitchen. From the main hall, they will all be together.

Eat together in the same room and be managed by a dedicated person!”

this……

The official and the chief officials who were originally unrelated to him were complaining secretly that the food in the Ministry of Revenue was famous, and their officials were even more good. But just that, Lin Qingran actually pointed here and canceled them directly.

The right to eat small stoves.

Huh?

The clerk below was quite surprised and couldn't help but feel good about the new scholar.

Although they did not complain about the food of the Ministry of Revenue, they could not help but feel psychological gap when they saw the gap with those officials. In particular, these officials are quite a layman in the accounting of the Ministry of Revenue, but they are the clerks who are really working. They are now having food.

Being able to be on the same level made them feel a little balanced.

When Hai Rui heard these three rules, he also re-examined this noble fellow villager.

"The official must follow the instructions of the Lord Zhengtang!" All the officials bowed together. Faced with such a strong Xinzhengtang, they could only barely accept this arrangement.

As the saying goes, the emperor and the minister are now Lin Qingran is appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, so everything is naturally up to him.

After talking about all this with the officials, they let them disperse themselves, while he began to become familiar with the new environment here.

Behind the main hall of the Ministry of Revenue are two halls, and the place where the Dianmao is located is here. On both sides are the places where the officials of the main hall are responsible for their work. Behind is a courtyard, where the signing house and the fire house are located.

The signing room was only slightly larger than before, but when you entered, you would find a room with four bookshelves. There were books and files piled up on it, and there was a bed of Arhats, which could be used for daily routines or leisure.

There is also a small door, and an exquisite carved bed is placed on the east wall inside. The wardrobe and toiletries are all complete, just like the bedroom of your own.

With the improvement of local areas, the treatment has become the same, which is why everyone has to try every means to drill up.

"Only the most sincere in the world can defeat the most false; only the most clumsy in the world can defeat the most cleverness in the world." Lin Qingran put a warning word on the signing room, which opened his career in charge of the Ministry of Revenue.

April of the 44th year of Jiajing, it seemed very uneasy.

As Lin Weiran and Gao Gong left the Ministry of Rites, the Cichen system ushered in a major adjustment.

Gao Yi was promoted to the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, Chen Yiqin, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, was directly promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, Pan Cheng, a priest of the Nanjing Imperial Academy, was promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, Pan Cheng was promoted to the right minister of the Dachang Temple and the Imperial Academy, and Dansheng, a prosecutor of the Hanlin Academy.

Lecture for Hanlin.

However, in this adjustment, Hu Zhengmeng, a teacher at the Hanlin Academy, who was originally expected to go further, suddenly died of illness, and the deputy examiner of Jiajing for 44 years passed away.

But I don’t know if Zhang Juzheng’s fate is too good or Chen Jin’s unfavorable life, so he also had the opportunity to go further, but he had to return home to observe the system because of his father’s death.

Chen Jin was the top scholar in the 32nd year of Jiajing, and with Xu Jie as his mentor, he had a bright future. However, in the 34th year of Jiajing, he was ordered to leave the capital and was enthroned by the vassal state. He was overdue due to illness and was entrusted to the outside world.

Huizhou Promotion Officer.

The following year, due to his outstanding achievements in governing the local government, he was promoted to the position of the Chief of the Taipu Temple in Nanjing by Xu Jie. Soon after, he was transferred to the Chief of the Shangbao Si and was transferred to the Nanjing Imperial College. Now he was transferred to the position of Zhongyun, Youchunfang and Hanlin Secretariat.

It was under Xu Jie's careful cultivation that although Chen Jin had the ups and downs of being released, he was now catching up. This time he was able to obtain the position of a bachelor's degree in Hanlin.

But man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Chen Jin had to return to his hometown for three years because of his father's death, but he missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and was already behind Zhang Juzheng and others.

On the other hand, with Hu Song as Minister of Personnel and Xu Jie firmly in the position of chief minister, Xu Jie's liquidation of the remnants of the Yan Party quietly began.

Zhu Heng, the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was promoted to the Minister of Justice of Nanjing, Wan Yukai, the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Justice of Nanjing, and even Hu Huang Yangmeng, the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was impeached.

In addition, officials headed by Huang Guangsheng, Minister of Justice of the Ministry of Justice, submitted a memorial to the court, requesting to be transferred to the Criminal Department to the Criminal Department to serve as the chief officer Ouyang Yijing.
Chapter completed!
