Chapter 235 Chen Dayou Realized His Dream of Prefect
Chen Dayou, the head of the Xianghe County working group in the capital's official department, almost lost his composure on the spot after receiving his appointment letter. He was appointed as the magistrate of Xianghe County!
Becoming the magistrate of Zhengyin County was his dream after joining the working group. Unexpectedly, his dream came true so quickly. Chen Dayou, who was born in Jian Gongsheng, felt unreal at this moment.
"Shifu (Chen Dayou's name), it is a rare opportunity for you to become the county magistrate this time. Once you take office, you must dedicate yourself to politics and not delay your future. You may not take it seriously when I say this. Today
Let me give you a closer look. The imperial court will soon be restructured at the prefectural and county levels to implement a dual-headed official system. The county-level yamen will set up an additional county magistrate who is also the seventh grade. In the future, the county magistrate will represent the imperial court to manage officials and supervise government affairs.
The county magistrate is in charge of affairs and leads the administration. Although they are all seventh-level officials, the county magistrate still has to be above half the rank. He can make arbitrary decisions when things are not decided. Let me tell you this, in the future, no one will be as direct as you once they become an official.
Become the chief official of a county! You are still young. If you catch up with this career, you will have a bright future." After reading the appointment letter, the head of the Ministry of Personnel also had a few words with Chen Dayou. In the past, it was like this
The situation will not happen, but the current situation makes these officials and heavenly officials have to put down their arrogance.
The arrangements for the various ministries and agencies of the imperial court have been decided. Recently, the lists of personnel for the agencies under Beizhili and Shuntian Prefecture have been released. The official from the Ministry of Personnel who was talking to Chen Dayou will take up his post in the Office of Personnel Affairs of Shuntian Prefecture.
, which means that he will have a more direct relationship with Chen Dayou in the future. Although after taking office, he will be much higher in rank than Chen Dayou, but Chen Dayou is the official seal official, and the official affairs office of Shuntian Mansion is just
The nominal leaders and their real superiors are Shuntian Prefecture Yin and Shuntian Prefecture Ling. In other words, if Chen Dayou were to challenge him, the work might not be easy to carry out.
"I will do my best as an official! I will never let down the expectations of the Holy Majesty and the imperial court."
"Shifu, when you go back, take the documents and report to the Yin Yamen of Shuntian Prefecture. Mr. Fu Yin can officially take office after using the seal."
"Sir, I have something unclear. Now both the governor and the governor have their own seals. Which seal should be used as the basis for future government orders?"
"I want to tell you something about this. In matters concerning civil affairs, the government order shall be subject to the seal, and in matters of government official orders shall be subject to the seal of the governor. Although the governor, governor, prefect, and county magistrate are in charge of the overall situation, they cannot directly carry out civil affairs.
That is to say, clerical officials do not care about the people. They are officials of officials, governors, government magistrates, and county magistrates. They can directly execute the people's orders and are officials of the people."
"Ah? From now on, will it happen that the people ignore the county magistrate?"
"That's not true. The situation at the county level is still unclear. But the regulations of the province and Shuntian Prefecture have come out. For Shuntian Prefecture to implement civil orders, the governor needs to organize all the deacons in the prefecture to discuss and vote together.
Official documents can be issued later. You can understand that Shuntian Prefecture also has a cabinet. In the same way, your Xianghe County will also form a small cabinet, and you will be the chief minister of the Xianghe County cabinet. In the future, if the county magistrate is established, you will be the second minister."
To put it simply, the structure of the New Deal is similar to what the official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs told Chen Dayou. Specifically, Zhu Youjian referred to the committee system and the dual-officer system of later generations. The authority of the top leader is still there, but the authority of the second leader is still there.
The leader is not a mere decoration. If he insists on it and does not need to seal it, the top leader’s policies will not be able to get out of the officialdom!
After chatting with officials from the Ministry of Personnel for a while and inquiring about some news about the restructuring of the officialdom, Chen Dayou went to the Yin Yamen of Shuntian Prefecture to report the news. Accompanied by officials sent by Shuntian Prefecture Yin, he officially returned to Xianghe County Yamen to take up the post of magistrate.
After these few months of work in the working group, Chen Dayou is actually quite familiar with the situation in Xianghe County. Where the yamen are opened, who are the officials, and even the people in the county are familiar with many of them.
"Have you heard? Chen Heilian has become our county magistrate!" Several young gentry in the county whispered in a teahouse to discuss the latest changes in the county government.
"I heard, it seems that our hard life will not end soon. Ever since Chen Heilian arrived in our county, the whole county has been completely messed up by him. Now that he has become the county magistrate, it will be even more troublesome.
It seems we can’t avoid the tax this year. I originally thought I could pay less by relying on the county tax collectors.”
"It would be difficult to rely on the officials to pay less taxes, even without Chen Hei Lian. Many of the county officials who were reported by Chen Hei Lian's hair-cutting team were taken to the Miyun coal field to mine coal!
Which of today's public officials still has the guts to hide taxes?"
"Your Majesty is making such a fuss because he simply doesn't give us a way to survive! No wonder a wise monarch has been established in the south. I don't know when the south will be able to send out a large army on the side of the Qing monarch to restore the country to normal."
"Clean the hell out of Junzi! It's better that such disasters happen less often. Guan Ningjun failed to do his job after cleaning up Junzi. Instead, he harmed many good families. We also had a few big families robbed.
It’s just that I heard that half of the big households in Tongzhou were robbed by that gang of thieves. Although the emperor in Beijing behaves more ruthlessly, he can at least be reasonable."
The influence of Guan Ning's army on Qing Jun's side was not limited to the capital. They did a lot of things all the way here and when they were retreating. Especially when they were retreating, the gang was even more unscrupulous. Maybe they would rob this house and never see it again.
How can we seize the opportunity without being ruthless? Along the way from Shanhaiguan to Tongzhou, wealthy families suffered a lot.
The most they can do to rob civilians is some food and worthless things. These things are worthless and difficult to take back. Therefore, on the way to Guan Ning, what Guan Ning's army loves to rob is the big households. The big households here are
, and it has nothing to do with them. If you don't rob, you won't rob. After such a commotion, although the gentry here resented the emperor very much, they didn't have any good impressions of other people. At least the soldiers and horses coming from the capital had strict military discipline.
, Qiu has no fault.
"I heard that the imperial court wants to renovate official roads and build water canals. These projects will be contracted by local people. Do you think we can participate in this? If we can participate, we can also make some money."
"I also heard about this from my third uncle in Beijing. He said that last year many noble people made a lot of money by contracting railway repair work. If there is such a project in the county this time, it will be a big deal.
As for making money, maybe we can recover our losses."
"It's difficult. Chen Heilian is now in charge of the county. Can he do anything good for us?"
Although the gentry in the teahouse still cursed at Chen Dayou, they had made up their minds. Rumor has it that this time the official roads and water canals were directed to target local people, which meant that they had to work with Chen Dayou.
There are great benefits to be gained from such a good relationship with the chief official. Thinking of this, Chen Dayou's black face is not so hateful in the hearts of the gentry. It seems that he still has to pay a visit to the county magistrate.
Master, don’t make the relationship too tense!
