Zhu Biao also had his reasons for assigning people like this.
Reform naturally requires finding ways to achieve results.
As the proposer of the Lijia system, Hu Changan must be the most familiar with this system. Naturally, he should be assigned to a strong county.
Among these counties, although Jiangning County is not the richest, Jiangning County Magistrate Feng Qing is the most talented among these counties.
In order to achieve results, it is natural to join forces with powerful forces.
Although Hu Changan had a good mind, his qualifications were a bit shallow, so Zhu Biao assigned Hu Changan a mature and prudent partner.
Li Shu was the left minister of the Ministry of Finance, the second-in-command of the Ministry of Finance, and the highest official that Zhu Biao could send.
Up to now, Li Shu would have to be at least the deputy minister of finance, which would be perfect if he wanted to control the situation.
After Hu Changan listened to Zhu Biao's instructions, he also accepted the order Luoluo.
Good guy, my previous friends were all second-generation people from the capital, but now it’s better for him to work directly with the second-generation father?
This is a direct generational leap.
Facing the serious-looking middle-aged man, although Hu Changan looked calm on the face, he felt somewhat guilty in his heart.
As a senior official, Li Shu had no official airs. After the meeting, he came up to Hu Changan in a friendly way and said hello: "Master Hu, you will work with me from now on. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."
After hearing this, Hu Changan immediately felt relaxed, and he quickly accepted the conversation and exchanged a few polite words with Li Shu.
The two called Feng Qing, the magistrate of Jiangning County, to the side. The three of them walked out of the East Palace talking and laughing together, and agreed to officially start the reform work in three days.
As the Minister of Household Affairs, Li Shu had a serious job and a heavy workload. Naturally, he could not stay in Jiangning County permanently. He could only take the time to visit occasionally or provide some guidance in the capital.
But Hu Changan is different.
At present, apart from growing potatoes, he basically has nothing to do.
Moreover, the land Hu Changan bought to build a factory was actually in Jiangning County!
This is simply giving a pillow if you feel sleepy.
Hu Changan immediately said that he could follow up on the reform situation in the county every day.
County Magistrate Feng Qing was also quite happy.
With help, the promotion of armor system here will definitely speed up a lot!
After parting ways with Li Shu and Feng Qing, Hu Changan took a leave of absence from the palace, went back to his house to pack his packages, and prepared to return home to prepare for the reform work that would start in three days.
...
Yingtian City, Hu Mansion.
It's an autumn afternoon and the sun is just right.
The concierge of Hu Mansion was basking in the sun out of boredom and feeling sleepy.
Suddenly, a clear young voice woke up the concierge: "Hello, please open the door, I'm back."
The concierge's eyes widened, and he was about to scold the bastard for waking him up, but was stunned when he saw the face of the person coming.
This...isn't this the young master?
The young master is back!
The porter immediately performed a Sichuan opera face change on the spot, jumped up from his chair, opened the door for Hu Chang'an diligently, and then rushed back to the servant's room to announce the great news to everyone.
Ever since the young master was hit by a carriage, the situation of the people in the Hu Mansion has become better and better day by day.
The situation here does not refer to money, but social status.
I originally worked as a concierge in the Hu Mansion, and although my salary was not low, it was a shameless job.
After all, who among the common people in Yingtian City doesn't know that Hu Weiyong was a corrupt official in the dynasty and that Hu Weiyong's son was a playboy who bullied men and dominated women?
Every time the concierge went back to his hometown, he wanted to cover his face.
After all, working for a tiger is not an honorable thing.
But for the sake of his sick mother at home, the concierge had no choice but to grit his teeth, pretend not to hear the gossip of his neighbors, and continue to work hard at the Hu Mansion.
After all, corrupt officials have a lot of money!
However, ever since the young master was hit by a carriage, his brain seems to have been enlightened. Not only has he curbed his playboy ways, but he has also invented many strange and wonderful things.
Let’s just talk about the soap that is currently popular in Yingtian City. Not only is it good to use, but it is also much cheaper and can be afforded by ordinary people.
With this magical soap, the people in Yingtian City also changed their view of Hu Mansion a lot.
Not to mention being grateful to the Hu family, at least everyone thinks that the Hu family is a kind businessman.
When the concierge went home to visit relatives a few days ago, although the villagers didn't say anything, their envious eyes betrayed everything.
This is the concierge who works in the Hu Mansion! He can use soap every day!
Even the second dog next door, who had never gotten along well with the concierge, came to beg him for soap a few days ago because he couldn't get soap from Hu's grocery store!
Today's concierge is so proud in the village that he walks with a wind in his eyes.
And all of this is thanks to the young master!
Now, the legendary young master was so close to him and even talked to him in a gentle tone!
The concierge was so excited that he was so happy that he ran back to the servants' room to share the good news with everyone.
.......
After the concierge opened the door, Hu Changan strolled into Hu's mansion after being away for many days.
Before Hu Changan could reach the main hall, he was surrounded by a group of servants.
Everyone rushed to greet each other, the young master was longer than the younger master, and it was very lively.
Under the service of the maid, Hu Changan leisurely ate some snacks and seasonal fruits, took a bath by the way, and then got down to business.
First of all, of course it is to look at the accounts.
Although the Hu Mansion has several accountants and stewards, as the head of the house, he still needs to check the accounts to some extent.
Otherwise, if you are deceived by a black-hearted slave and have no money to spend in the end, you will really have nowhere to cry.
Hu Changan took the account book, fetched some charcoal pens and slates, then calmed down and began to calculate.
Although he has traveled through time for several months, Hu Changan is still not used to the writing brushes of this era.
It gets covered in ink all the time, and it dries slowly, which is so annoying.
After a while, Hu Changan roughly finished checking the accounts.
After the last serious rectification, everyone is indeed honest and no longer dares to line their own pockets.
Hu Changan was very satisfied with this.
Today, the Hu Mansion's monthly income is about 20,000 taels of silver.
In the Ming Dynasty, this can be regarded as an astronomical figure.
You must know that during the Zhu Yuanzhang period, the entire Ming Dynasty's tax revenue was only 8 million taels of silver.
And if things continue like this, Hu's annual income will reach a terrifying 240,000 taels of silver, which is almost 1/33 of the country's total tax revenue!
Today, thanks to the hard work of the craftsmen, Hu Changan's workshop can produce about 10,000 soaps a day. This chapter has been completed!
