Chapter five hundred and twentieth finally can make their own decisions
In comparison, Zhou He's situation was not much better. When he was captured from the mansion, he did not scold the cavalry of King Ji Tang Ao, but kept muttering, "You idiot, Hou Difu, you
It’s so stupid. How did you lead the army? Did all the money given to you over the years go into the dog’s belly?”
Needless to say, Zhou He's analysis was indeed correct. Afterwards, Feng Xun and his men found two to eight million yuan in silver from Hou Di Mansion alone. Compared with the wealth of the powerful people in Daliang City, it was certainly nothing. But
This is Jizhou, the poorest Jizhou. For a general soldier with an annual salary of only two thousand taels of silver, this is equivalent to the wealth he would have earned after working for nearly four thousand years, and that would require him not to eat or drink.
Only flowers can do it, so one can imagine how much money he has been greedy for over the years.
If the 8 million taels in the General Military Mansion can be considered an appetizer, the 15 million taels of silver found in the basement of the Zhizhou Mansion truly proves what it means that there are people outside the world. On the contrary, there is only less than 2 taels of silver in the Jicheng warehouse.
It’s only 100,000. This is a typical example of harming the public and enriching private interests.
As it was getting late, Jiwang's motorcade finally arrived at the foot of Jizhou, where Feng Xun greeted him. The motorcade entered the city smoothly, and this marked the beginning of Tang Ao's entry into Jizhou and his role as the true master of the place.
In Jizhou at the end of August, the weather is no longer so hot, especially the temperature difference between morning and night is even greater.
In the morning, as soon as the sky turned white, the military camp became lively. Almost all the soldiers were mobilized to start a new day. However, the soldiers did not go out for drills, but some went to the city with brooms.
A part of the team, mostly composed of prisoners, headed towards the Beishan Mountains of Jicheng.
The cockcrow rang three times, and finally it was time for the people to get up. Just because the cavalry entered the city yesterday, the timid people did not open the courtyard door as usual, but just came to the courtyard and looked out. They
Want to see what's going on outside?
In fact, few people in the city could get a good night's sleep last night. They seemed to be afraid that as soon as they fell asleep, someone would break in. At that time, all the wealth in the family would be robbed.
Well. Although not many people have enough money, even those broken pots and bowls are necessary to build a family.
However, the night passed peacefully without any worrying scene. When the people looked out in the morning, they were surprised to find that the originally dirty streets were now almost spotless. Those
All the rubbish that no one had cleaned up for who knows how many years has disappeared.
If I hadn't been standing in my yard right now, I'm afraid the people wouldn't believe what they saw was real.
It was rare to see such a clean street. This sudden change made the people very confused. They didn't know what was happening outside, and they didn't have the courage to come out of their homes to see what happened.
Fortunately, this atmosphere did not last long. Then groups of men appeared on the street. Among them were soldiers holding weapons and prisoners holding piles of firewood.
After that, piles of chopped firewood were placed at every door where the courtyard could be seen.
How quickly did these people appear? How quickly did they leave? They all put down the firewood and left without even saying a single extra word.
This strange scene made the people even more confused. Looking at the neatly stacked firewood outside the courtyard, no one knew what was going on.
Fortunately, someone soon explained their doubts. On the street, rows of government officials beating gongs passed by. While beating gongs, they shouted, "Listen up, people. From today on, Jicheng
We have a new master, King Ji. King Ji, who cares for the people, tells us not to be afraid, not to worry, and not to worry. As long as you are a law-abiding common people, no one will make things difficult for you. Also, you see
Have you placed the firewood outside the courtyard? That is the meeting gift from King Ji to everyone. Now you can move the firewood back home. It should not be cold this winter."
"People, listen up, from today onwards, Jicheng has a new master, King Ji..."
The shouts came over and over again. Often a group of government officials left, and soon another group of government officials came over. They all said the same thing, so it didn't take long for the people in the whole city to know that King Ji had arrived.
Things about Jicheng.
Clean streets and firewood given to the people are not valuable things in the final analysis. But this kind of behavior can quickly bring Tang Ao closer to the people, allowing them to gain the most favor in a short period of time.
.
After the government officials shouted over and over again, and many of the officials were familiar to the people, finally some brave people opened the courtyard door, looked around first, and then moved the firewood in front of them to their homes.
. During this process, no one stopped me. Not only that, even when a patrol team composed of government officials arrived, they did not stop the people from moving the firewood. On the contrary, they all showed encouraging smiles on their faces.
.
The government officials had reasons to be happy. Just last night, they were summoned, and then they received a piece of news that made them overjoyed. The approximately one year's salary owed to them by the Zhizhou Prefecture will be fully paid early this morning.
And starting from today, the salary of all government servants will be increased by 50%, from the original 2 taels of silver per month to 30 taels of silver in the future, and there will be no arrears.
This kind of good thing about pie falling from the sky made all the government officials want to cheer long live. Therefore, when they got their errands, everyone worked hard at it. There were already rumors that Prince Ji
After arriving, the team of government officials will have to be reorganized. Some people may be added, or some people may be subtracted. In order to maintain their positions, they are not allowed to cheer up and do their jobs well.
As for the people, after getting the firewood and seeing the renovated streets, none of them seemed to be so afraid. Some people had already begun to walk into the streets, and some bold merchants had opened their stores and tried to do something.
Started a business.
When doing all this, everyone was cautious, as if they were afraid that it would not be real.
In Zhizhou Mansion, Tang Ao had already walked down from a high house. He had just used a telescope to observe the reactions of the people in the city. The results made him very satisfied. He believed that his next actions would bring him more success.
Much public support.
"Your Highness." As soon as they returned to Zhizhou's lobby, everyone clasped their fists and bowed with great respect. I'm afraid they also knew that from now on, they would be in the same boat with this young prince.
"No need to be polite." Tang Ao came to the main chair with a smile. He first scanned everyone, then reached into his arms and took out an appointment letter written last night.
From now on, Tang Ao can finally make his own decisions, without having to worry about other people's opinions or the feelings of so-called power. In other words, from this moment on, he has his own territory and can be his own boss.
In fact, as long as the method is appropriate, it is still easy to be a boss.
Generally speaking, as long as you can do these three things, there won't be any big problems in running a company or power of any size.
So what are the three things that are so awesome?
Tang Ao summed it up by building a team, setting a strategy, and leading the team.
When setting up a team, Tang Ao will hire whoever is good, famous, and capable. This can greatly reduce risks.
To set a strategy, you need to have a general plan for how to develop in the future, and then add details according to these plans.
Leading a team, a strong team will play a vital role in both internal stability and external expansion. Tang Ao will not rely on others to do this, but will do it himself. Only by keeping the team tight
Only by holding it tightly in your hands can you ensure that your orders can be conveyed and implemented as quickly as possible.
With these three points in mind, Tang Ao began his first appointment after becoming King Ji.
Zeng Tong served as the governor of Jizhou, that is, the provincial governor in later generations.
The governor of Jizhou, equivalent to the "Secretary-General" in later generations, was served by Han Ce. His subordinates were held by Ning Feng, Ren An, Su Zhen, the former governor of Jilin, Shi Qin, Gu Ben, and the former chief Mei Du.
Sima was appointed by Geng Liang, and his subordinates were appointed by Yuan Zhong, who continued to serve for another term.
The above are local officials, followed by the appointment of military officials.
Tang Ao personally serves as the commander-in-chief.
The deputy commander-in-chiefs are Shi Lei and Feng Xun.
The participating members will be Feng Wanli, Sun Fuhu and Mei Jilong, one of the original participating generals.
The guerrilla generals were served by Tie Long and Zhou Qian.
The school captains are served by Xu Hun and Deng Tian, who have outstanding performance along the way and stand out.
This is just a preliminary appointment. Some people may be eliminated in the subsequent work, and new people may join. Everything depends on changes.
Everyone was granted official status, and there was a joyous scene in the lobby.
On the streets of the city, in the homes of the common people, their faces were also filled with joy and happiness. When groups of soldiers filled the water jars in the common people's homes with water, such an army was quickly accepted by the common people.
.
After all, military masters are often superior to ordinary people. It is a blessing that they do not steal your things or make trouble for you. How could you have thought that they would help you with your work?
When the soldiers walked among the common people, helped them with their work, and chatted about household matters, the distance between the two sides began to close quickly, and the people's acceptance of King Ji's army was also rapidly improving.
But Tang Ao is still not satisfied with all this. He knows better than anyone else the power of the people; he knows better than anyone else that it is not just a slogan that can capsize a boat even if it cannot carry it; he knows even more clearly that only by gaining the support of the people
Crowded, only when the people are rich can the country be strong.
