Chapter 279 Professionals

It’s time to enter August.

After the establishment of the City Shipping Department, a young man named Liu Yu took office as the City Shipping Secretary.

The second batch of 100,000 Central Plains Han people finally came to Longyou after a long journey. Wang Renzhi divided them into two and resettled them in Xia and Shazhou respectively.

The new governor of Wuzhou has also arrived, and it is none other than Yang Yu, the former left minister of the Ministry of Rites. Some time ago, he and Xiao Zheng were implicated in the pornographic incident. As a result, Xiao Zheng was promoted instead of being demoted, taking the biggest step in his life. , was promoted to the Political Affairs Hall and ranked in the Prime Minister's Kingdom. Although Yang Yu was released, the official position of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites was also dismissed. Zhao Zhi did not make any new arrangements for him and kept him there. Now, it is As the governor of Wuzhou, he was still a third-rank official, the same level as his previous official position, but the weight between the two was very different. However, Yang Yu did not feel any disappointment. Instead, he was very grateful to Zhao Zhi and cherished this new position. , because this shows that Zhao Zhi is not completely disappointed with himself. Yang Yucai is just in his early forties. He never wants to quit officialdom so early unless he has to.

In Xia and Shazhou, the long-vacant governorships were filled with people one after another. One was very close to the King of Qi, and the other was Liu Congxi's clan brother. These people had nothing to do with the Yang clan.

The above arrangements, Li Xun knew that the bold words he said in a letter to Zhao Zhi had a great effect. Zhao Zhi finally chose to support him and used strong methods to intervene in the personnel affairs of the three states of Longyou West Road and arrange for himself, which was very Good internal development environment.

After the Wuzhou Shipping Department was established, the imperial court officially summoned the world to fully liberalize trade with Dashi. Dashi then responded positively and established the Trade Department in Xizhou. The emperor's order was spread throughout the country, and for the merchants of the Jin Dynasty With ordinary people, there are no restrictions and relatively low taxes. Its degree of openness is much greater than that of the Jin Dynasty.

From Wuzhou City Ship Division, a team of dozens of cavalry galloped over.

Li Xun dismounted and said to the soldiers behind him: "Big Bear, follow me. You stay where you are and wait."

"Yes, Governor."

The city shipping company is very large, covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres.

"I humble my duty to pay my respects to Governor Li."

Liu Yu, the envoy of the Shipping Department, walked quickly, came to Li Xun, bowed his hands and bowed.

Li Xun raised his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, please forgive me."

Liu Yu's rank is very low, only the seventh rank, which is far behind Li Xun. However, the two are not directly subordinates. Liu Yu does not belong to the local government, but directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Li Xun cannot control him, but Liu Yu He is still very polite to Li Xun. The reason is very simple. Li Xun also serves as the governor and transshipment officer of Longyou West Road. He has many interactions with the Shipping Department. If Liu Yu wants to manage the Shipping Department well, he also needs Li Xun. Li Xun's strong support, the interception of ferries, the collection of taxes, the search of people, etc. all require Li Xun's strong assistance. After all, the entire Municipal Shipping Department, including Liu Yu, has less than twenty officials, and they are only responsible for Overall management and actual operation require a lot of manpower, and there are too many places that rely on Li Xun.

Liu Yu stood up straight, chuckled and said, "Captain Li is here, what advice do you have?"

"I don't dare to give you any advice. Today is the first day that your shipping department is officially opened. I came over to take a look and join in the fun."

As Li Xun spoke, he glanced around. There were crowds of people coming and going. Dozens of ferries docked at the shore. Soldiers came forward to check. There were no prohibited items. When they passed, there was a burst of cheers. The coolie people who depended on this for food immediately rushed to the shore. Go forward, discuss the price with the merchant, and be responsible for unloading the goods.

Li Xun withdrew his gaze and said: "How many people are responsible for unloading the goods? Are they enough? Not enough. You have your say and I will send someone to help."

Liu Yu thanked: "The people are very active. More than a thousand people have been recruited. Recruitment is still going on. In terms of manpower, it is enough."

Li Xun nodded and said: "I have given Zhao Zhang a strict order. He is only responsible for searching and expropriating. He has no right to interfere with other matters. If there is any violation of authority, you can come and notify me, and I will punish you severely."

Li Cunxiao was transferred to Xiazhou for military training. The current military envoy at Liangshuikou is Zhao Zhang. Zhao Zhang was once Shanqiu's personal soldier and captain. He followed Shanqiu for many years. He has a fiery personality, but he is very upright and has extraordinary force. Shanqiu himself

He was from an ordinary background, had no family to rely on, and had no foundation in the court. He could not help Zhao Zhang in his official career. For this reason, Zhao Zhang held the position of general for four or five years and was never promoted.

, after Li Cunxiao was transferred, the seat at Liangshuikou became vacant. During this time, Shanqiu followed him and worked hard. Li Xun was very touched and always wanted to repay, so he thought of Zhao Zhang and promoted this person.

Afterwards, General Zhonglang, Shan Qiu led Zhao Zhang and made a special trip to express his gratitude.

While the two were talking, Zhao Zhang strode over, walked up to Li Xun, bowed his hands and said, "General, I will pay my respects to the governor."

Li Xun raised his hand, indicating that Zhao Zhang did not need to be polite.

"Is everything okay?"

Zhao Zhang nodded: "Everything is fine. So far, no one has been found smuggling prohibited items."

Li Xun said: "Take good care of your soldiers, pay attention to the intensity of searches, and do not cause conflicts. If someone accuses me, I will not be lenient."

Zhao Zhang quickly raised his hands and promised: "Captain, please rest assured, the general will never dare to act recklessly."

Li Xun actually meant what he said. When soldiers conduct searches, it is inevitable that there will be some private actions. Li Xun cannot completely prevent this matter. He just said this to warn Zhao Zhang that he can engage in some extramarital affairs, but he must pay attention to a certain degree.

, if you pass it, it is a crime, and I will never forgive you lightly.

Afterwards, Li Xun walked around and stayed in Liu Yu's office for a while. Liu Yu showed Li Xun the account books and core taxation planning system of the Shipping Department.

The tax money that comes up will eventually be transported to Fengjing by Li Xun, so even if Liu Yu doesn't take the initiative to take out the account book, Li Xun still has the right to ask to see it.

After Li Xun read the account book, he praised Liu Yu greatly. People in this world have many limitations in many things due to the times. They are dull and inefficient, but Liu Yu's style of doing things is great.

It’s different. The entire account book is clearly organized, with entries and exits, divided by categories, and the records are very clear, giving people a refreshing feeling. The core taxation planning system is Liu Yu’s addition to the original taxation.

Things, for example, if a merchant commits a crime, goods will not be seized, only people, not things. For example, if some sensitive people and things enter the territory of the Jin Dynasty, they must pay a deposit, and many more. These are not what the imperial court had previously
