"But this time it was a wake-up call for me. I didn't even notice the salary issue of officials." Chen Xi naturally changed the topic.
To be honest, ten years ago, this salary was actually very high, because the salary of the Han Dynasty was calculated based on grain, and the salary of Wanshi was already high enough. But now, due to Chen Xi's stabilization of prices, the salary of Wanshi
, actually only one million dollars.
From the purchasing power point of view, this is indeed quite high, but if you think about it carefully, it is the three public servants. If you replace it with the lowest-level bureaucrat, the one with a hundred shi, that is, ten thousand yuan a year, while the lowest official salary at the bottom is only a few dollars a year.
Ten stones, converted into five baht, is only a few thousand dollars.
Thinking about this, Chen Xi understood why those petty officials were all part-time temporary workers. They really couldn't make as much as a skilled adult working in the city.
"It seems that Chang'an will have to calculate the salaries of the middle and lower-level officials later." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Those of the three gongs and nine ministers do not need to be adjusted very much. At least the middle and lower levels do need to adjust and modify their salary structure.
Yes, I really ignored it before."
To be honest, the salary of officials in the Han Dynasty has not been adjusted for hundreds of years. Although the middle and lower-level officials feel that their money is a little tight, those who are officials these days have experienced the situation ten years ago.
It's tighter, so I really didn't pay attention.
As for taking advantage of others, although some officials did this, they were quickly reported and taken down. After all, the current supervision organization is still very powerful. Of course, the Yanzhou case really exceeded the ability of the supervision organization.
range.
"Oh, how do you plan to adjust it?" Bai Qi asked with interest.
"Let's add some other things. The salary is still the same. Let's repay some other things. At the end of the year, we will repay a salary or something." Chen Xi sighed and said, "I really didn't notice that the lower-level bureaucrats are no longer as good as they should be."
The soldiers' income is more, although this is reasonable, but in order to avoid accidents? It is better to make adjustments."
Chen Xi does not seek high salary to maintain integrity? Chen Xi seeks a relatively reasonable system to suppress the greedy side of human nature and not give these people the opportunity to commit corruption as much as possible? But Chen Xi will not do it after discovering that there is a problem with the salary of the bureaucrats?
solve.
Although Chen Xi banned bureaucrats from doing business, all relatives within three generations need to report to do business? But to be honest, do other people really want to do business? This method can't stop it? People can just find someone they trust, but it's really not possible to find a glove.
, these can all solve the problem.
I really want to say that this ban is more about guarding against gentlemen than against villains, but in general, Chen Xi also knows it well? Apart from anything else? In fact, the people in Chang'an have reported everything that should be reported, and they can be in that position
Yes, basically everyone has a title. In addition to official salary, there is also a salary based on the title.
So Chen Xi knows very well that this salary problem should be caused by the middle and low-level bureaucrats below, maybe because of the 400-year problem of the Han Dynasty? Most bureaucrats don't actually think there is any problem with salary, but this kind of thing is not a long-term solution?
It is better to solve it as soon as possible.
"Ah, another big salary went out." Chen Xi sighed and said.
Of course, this is just a joke? Does it sound like a terrible thing to raise the wages of all officials? In fact, it is not like this.
Because the ratio of officials to the population in the Qin and Han Dynasties was actually about one thousandth to one? Chen Xi's existence slightly increased this ratio, but it basically remained at four to five thousand to one.
This is also the reason why Chen Xi immediately decided to raise his salary after discovering this problem. Ten thousand people were involved in the fight, and the ministers did not need it. Even if they counted two thousand dan, they did not need it. The rest were the ones that needed to be raised.
Salary range.
The highest basic salary of those people is only Qianshi. Chen Xi calculated it as a doubling but it is actually not much. What's more, it is impossible to double it. At that time, the salary structure will be adjusted and the salary composition will be the original salary plus rewards.
, add the current governance rating, add other materials, etc. However, this requires careful thinking about the good and bad governance of the province.
To be honest, over the years, Chen Xi has also encountered many things that he thought were good governance, but then turned into bad governance when he was doing it. Therefore, he became more and more cautious when working, and there was no way.
These days, it’s difficult to determine what’s going on before doing this.
"I always feel that you seem to be very casual about spending money." Han Xin said with some emotion after putting the money in his pocket.
"You have to know that spending money is also a technical job, and it is a very important technical job." Chen Xi looked at Han Xin very seriously and said, this is not nonsense, this is a very important knowledge point for future generations, and it is very important.
It's difficult for most people to really grasp it.
"Tsk, we won't refute you on this aspect." Bai Qi reached out and knocked on the table, and then said to Chen Xi in a rather casual tone.
"Uh, do you mean you need it too?" Chen Xi looked at Bai Qi with some confusion, and he suddenly realized that Bai Qi might also need some living expenses.
"I don't need it. The money hasn't been spent yet. You paid a lot of tuition fees in advance, and now you still have more than half of it." Bai Qi said very freely. He is different from Han Xin. Han Xin needs a sense of presence, but I am Wu An.
Jun Baiqi is completely different from Han Xin.
We are both famous generals, but we are not in the same style at all. Although we are all very good at fighting, apart from being able to fight, there is nothing similar between us.
"Oh, that's right. I feel like I don't spend much time throwing money away at the theater anymore." Chen Xi recalled that the intensity of Bai Qi's throwing away money was greatly reduced in the future, but it didn't matter. Chen Xi still used Bai Qi's money as paper.
Anyway, it is impossible for Bai Qi to purchase properties on a large scale.
"It's not that I went less, but that you went less." Bai Qi said quietly while holding a tea cup, while Han Xin gritted his teeth and looked at Bai Qi. At that time, he gave himself 200 million yuan, and then said to himself
He was given 80% of his class time, and later Han Xin realized that Bai Qi meant that he was not a son of a man by giving him 80% of his class time!
"Oh, I did go less often. I can't help it, I have to work." Chen Xi recalled it, and it seems that he did work more this year.
On the other hand, Liu Tong happily ran back to find Wen Shi, because she had already received relatively accurate information. Regarding this aspect, Liu Tong really felt that there was no need for Chen Xi to lie to her.
"Quick, quick, quick, come here and give me a reference." Liu Tong looked at Zhen Mi and Wu Yuan who were chatting with Wen and said immediately.
Zhen Mi and Wu Yuan have become interested in fiefdoms because of Chen Xi's previous problems. The largest fiefdom in the Central Plains is undoubtedly the fiefdom of Zhong Guogong, so after Liu Tong ran away, Zhen Mi and Wu
Yuan went around Zhong Guogong's fiefdom and began to learn more about it.
After all, the information they obtained was completely different from what people like Zhong Guogong's close friends like Wen knew, not to mention that these two guys had never had a good understanding of Fengguo before.
To be honest, it is difficult for Zhen Mi, Wu Yuan and Wen to talk about other things together, because since Wen was married to the Yuan family, in addition to managing the backyard, she only accompanied Stina or Yuan Tan around, rarely
There are records of contact with other noble ladies.
Although Deng Zhen and Deng Tong's wives were considered, they didn't meet many times, and even Wen couldn't find any gossip topics between the wives.
But talking about Yuan's situation, this Wen is very familiar. There are good and bad, but overall it is positive. Her husband's fighting ability is still very good, so when Liu Tong comes back, he sees Wen
He was excitedly explaining the situation in Sizhao City.
"Ahem, your highness, how is the situation over there?" Wen Shi calmed down and asked with a smile. Wen Shi can accept it whether it works or not.
"Ah, no problem. Chen Zichuan was recently borrowed a large amount by his old brother. He happened to be at a critical point and was too lazy to make changes." Liu Tong thought for a while and explained to Wen Shi based on his own knowledge, "So
There is no problem with the gold, I decided to take it."
There was no way around it. The Yuan family's gold was of high quality, low price, and large in quantity, so Liu Tong decided to eat it all after confirming that there was no problem. If he remembered correctly, he still had more than a billion dollars.
"I'll buy some too." Zhen Mi and Wu Yuan looked at each other to make sure there was no problem.
When Wen heard this, she sighed inwardly, but she nodded to the three of them with a smile on her face. It was considered a move, and she would consider buying something with the money later.
"The next thing is this. This year, your husband said he had no living expenses for the same reason as before. He gave me this and asked me to choose. Can you help me see what I should choose?" Liu Tong handed the rolled-up list to Zhen Mi.
, and then a gloomy look on his face.
"Ah, I don't have any new year's money. It's good that I don't have any new year's money." Zhen Mi is quite happy. To be honest, every year when she hears that Chen Xi gives Liu Tong new year's money, Zhen Mi feels quite distressed. Even though she knows that this is what she should do, she still feels that I
My husband hasn’t sent me so much, so why did he send so much to you?
Then Liu Tong and Zhen Mi got into a fight without any surprise, and they struggled for a while before stopping. At this time, Wu Yuan had already opened the scroll and was reading it, and Wen on the other side was also staring at the list of names on the scroll.
"There's no problem." Wu Yuan just glanced at it and confirmed that the farms and factories above all existed. After all, they were different from laymen like Liu Tong who didn't pay attention to these. Wu Yuan was an expert in this area. Regarding the list,
All the factories on the market know about it.
"It's a pity that our family doesn't have any money now. If you have money, you can get these things from Chen Zichuan first, and then transfer them to our family later. These are medium and large-scale factories and mines that are well-run." Wu Yuan held her head,
She used her own experience to give Liu Tong reassurance. To a certain extent, Wu Yuan was right.
