Lin Qingran opened the information about the house in Lingshi Hutong and found that the house was extremely ordinary, but it was a very ordinary courtyard. There were only five or six rooms and no back garden.

"It's not easy to live in the capital!" He looked at the rent marked on it and couldn't help but sigh.

Ning Jiang also helped him choose a house. He heard this and said with a sour voice: "Come on! Your sixth-rank official's monthly salary is eight stones of rice, so you will only earn the highest income!"

"Didn't you say there is a color? I'm afraid that I can only get two or three taels of money, and I can't even support myself!" Lin Qiran supported his chin and continued to look through the information about other houses.

Ning Jiang picked out a place and handed it to him, and said in an envious tone: "It's true that there is a color change! But the Ministry of Revenue also has to look at people? You are a Hanlin official. If someone sells it to 30%, at least you will leave enough for you.

Sixty percent!"

It has to be said that Hanlin officials seem to have no power but their status in the officialdom is indeed not low. Especially for the Ministry of Revenue, they dare not offend officials of the Ministry of Personnel, but they dare not prosecute them to the Hanlin Academy.

"You probably don't know what I'm going to the Ministry of War yet! Unfortunately, your firewood, so you will pass through my hands in the future. You are a second-rank official and can hire four people, so our Ministry of War will get another month.

I'll give you four taels of firewood and silver." Ning Jiang looked up at Lin Weiran, his eyes full of helplessness and envy.

"It's more than that!" Yang Futian took over the topic, so he pretended to be mysterious and said proudly: "I don't know your yamen. Anyway, I've found out clearly. The Shi Tang Yin of our Ministry of Works... ten taels...

!”

This Naotang silver is equivalent to the unit bonus in later generations. The yamen such as the Ministry of Industry and Technology, which have strong income-generating capabilities, will naturally be paid more, while the yamen such as the Ministry of Justice, which have weak income-generating capabilities, will naturally be paid less.

This is true, and many people have the illusion that the income of Ming Dynasty officials was low. Perhaps this would have been the case in the early Ming Dynasty, but in the Jiajing Dynasty, the income-generating ability of each government office was enhanced, and their income could not be considered low.

Lin Qingran had not understood this matter before, so he was not sure how much Shi Tang Yin would be in the Hanlin Academy.

However, judging from the high-end paper, pen, ink and inkstones in the office, I am afraid that the "income-generating ability" of the Hanlin Academy is not low. Even if the paper and ink consumption is doubled, thousands of taels will be earned.

In fact, in addition to salary, silver, firewood, soap and zhitang silver, there will also be benefits such as firewood tickets in winter, and the annual income can even be as many as hundreds of taels.

"Then it's Lingshi Hutong!" After comparing, Lin Qingran made a quick decision and chose this place with the highest security factor, even if the rent was indeed much higher.

As long as it is good for the girl Hu Niu, he will not be stingy even if he has more money.

After finalizing the house, the three of them asked Manager Chen to bring food and drinks to talk about their respective jobs today. When they learned that Lin Weiran was so fierce, they all gave him a thumbs up.

The next day, Hanlin Academy.

After Chen entered You, this was the commuting and getting off work time for officials in the Ming Dynasty, that is, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Lin Qingran, as a newcomer in the officialdom, has just started, so it is naturally difficult to be late.

Men Zao is a servant and has the lowest status. When he saw Lin Qingran coming in, he said with a flattering look: "Master of the editor, the youngest is called Lin San. The first day he is at the hall, and the sky will be full of red clouds. In the future, he will definitely rise to the sky.

, rank as a cabinet minister!”

Lin Qingran then looked up at the sky and found that it was indeed full of morning glows. He felt very good. He smiled gently and said, "Thank you! My surname is Lin. We are probably a family five hundred years ago!"

"Hehe... If so, that's a blessing for villains!" Lin San scratched his head and smiled foolishly, looking extremely happy.

Through the three gates, Lin Weiran turned left and walked into the maintenance and inspection hall.

When the official watched him come in, he gave a few more compliments with a smile on his face, and was very optimistic about the new editor.

Lin Qingran drew Mao on the book and walked towards the office area.

"Master, what are your instructions?" Sun Jixiang had arrived here in advance and asked respectfully.

After becoming the newly-edited subordinate, his status suddenly improved. Yesterday, two people came to his house to give gifts, and his colleagues who had always rejected him also invited him to drink with him.

But he knew in his heart that who gave everything now. Perhaps he had experienced too much and saw the warmth and coldness of human feelings, so he seemed much calmer about this change.

"If the Lord of the Parliament comes here, remember to call me!" Lin Xuran explained.

Upon hearing this, Sun Jixiang shook his head and said, "There is trouble in the sect's mansion, and the Lord of the Chief Court is afraid that he will not care about this place for a while!"

"What's going on in the clan's house?" Lin Xuran frowned and asked in confusion.

Sun Jixiang was very informative, and he immediately said: "The Japanese pirates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are rampant and have used too much finance, so he delayed the Lumi from the clan mansion!"

"I understand!" Lin Qingran nodded slowly.

In order to prevent the marriage between the two families, the Ming Dynasty imposed many restrictions on the royal family and raised them as pigs.

It is not easy to support these relatives. Like a prince, he gave 10,000 stones of rice, 2,000 stones of county lords, 1,000 stones of state generals, 800 stones of state generals, and 600 stones of state generals,

Lieutenant of the Kingdom of Vessels 400 stones...these vassals exceeded 20,000.

Data shows that the grain provided to the capital every year is 4 million stones, but the rice in the vassals of various places is as much as 853 stones. Most of the country's fiscal revenue was divided by these vassals.

When the country's finances were under heavy burdens, the wealth and rice of these vassals were inevitably affected. It was precisely because of this that they asked the officials of the sect's people's office to vent their anger and even found the superior yamen of the Ministry of Rites.

After learning the news, Lin Xuran knew that he had to wait this day, and Wu Shan was afraid that he would really not have time to pay attention to the three newcomers.

Lin Qingran had a pot of ginseng tea, asked Sun Jixiang to find some books about the Ming Dynasty, especially information about being close to the vassal states, and then slowly turned it over.

He planned to learn more about the Ming Dynasty, this era, and the court that lived through the historical records of the Hanlin Academy during this leisure day.

I have to say that Lin Qingran chose a good "secretary", and Sun Jixiang seemed to know his intention. He selected a lot of information about the vassal state to give him a clear understanding of the vassal state and also supported by data.

For example, during the Hongwu period of Henan Province, there was only one Zhou royal palace. However, by the Jiajing Dynasty, the number of princes had increased to 39, with more than 500 generals, and countless generals were below.
