Chapter 697 - Trade Association
Xi Zhong's work efficiency is still very high, and he prepared the affairs of the business yamen in two days.
However, he did not look for officials, because Guo Jia said that there was a suitable candidate.
For this lord's ability to recognize people, Xi Zhong is still very relieved.
But seeing the talent recommended by Guo Jia, Rao is Taishan collapsed in front of him, and Xi Zhong, who did not change color, almost fell to the ground.
The people recommended by Guo Jia were actually three beautiful women, one of whom he still knew, it was Guo Jia's wife Mi Zhen.
"Lord, this is not a joke, is it!"
He pointed to the three women in front of him in surprise and said with a wry smile.
How?
Guo Jia smiled and said, "Are you doubting my decision?" ”
These three women are Su Qinglian, Zhen Tuo and Mi Zhen, all of whom are girls from the Shangjia family, and they also have the experience of being independent.
Let them run this department, and they will be able to do more with less.
Management is a science, we must let the insiders lead the laymen, and the laymen lead the insiders, that is nonsense.
Although there are many civil and military officials in Yunzhou, there are none who understand business. This yamen is an important department to protect Yunzhou's commerce and trade, and Guo Jia is a little unhappy to hand it over to some profiteers.
After thinking about it, he could only hand it over to Su Qinglian.
After all, their own women can be trusted.
Can't!
Xi Zhong couldn't cry or laugh, and said: "No matter how you say this business yamen, it is also an official government, and it is natural that the person in charge of this yamen is also an official." Since the establishment of our Han Dynasty, there has been no precedent for women to be officials. ”
In this era, women can't be officials, even if Cai Yan is famous all over the world, she can only obediently marry into the Guo family's husband and godson.
Women as officials?
As soon as this news comes out, Yunzhou is afraid that it will become the laughing stock of the world.
Let women be officials, is there no man?
"Do you look down on women?"
Mi Zhen looked at Xi Zhong with a smile.
Xi Zhong smiled faintly and said nothing.
It's not that he looks down on women, but there is no precedent for women to be officials in Yunzhou.
"Lord Thorn Shi!"
Zhen Tuo said lightly: "Huang Wudie and Ma Yunlu are both women, they can all be generals, why can't we be officials?" ”
The news that Huang Wudie and Ma Yunlu became the generals of Yunzhou soon spread throughout the north.
The woman in Yunzhou was very encouraged when she heard this.
I'm sorry!
Xi Zhong said lightly: "Military affairs have nothing to do with this official, and this official is in charge of the civil affairs of Yunzhou." In the history of Yunzhou and even the history of the Han Dynasty, there is no precedent for a woman to be an official. ”
Is it?
Su Qinglian smiled slightly and said, "This sentence is a little too arbitrary." ”
Hearing Su Qinglian's words questioning him, Xi Zhong was a little unhappy.
"This young lady, what the drama said is the truth."
There is really no precedent for a woman to be an official in the Han Dynasty.
If Yunzhou did this, it would definitely be a precedent.
Very good!
Su Qinglian asked again: "May I ask Lord Xi, is the official in power?" ”
Not bad!
Xi Zhong nodded and said, "You can think so." ”
Officials naturally want to govern.
What is the official who does not govern.
That's right!
Su Qinglian smiled faintly and said, "The Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager Dou, and the Empress Dowager Dong are also women, but they can supervise the government as the Empress Dowager. May I ask Lord Xi, is this considered a woman as an official? ”
This......
Xi Zhongdeng was dumbfounded.
This woman is very smart, and secretly changed the concept of officials, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother can indeed govern at some times, but they cannot be said to be officials, nor can they be said to be officials.
This is indeed more than a foolish account.
Thinking of this, Xi Zhongdeng became wary of this woman.
Hahahaha!
Seeing that Xi Zhong was played by Su Qinglian, Guo Jia couldn't help laughing happily.
"Zhicai, don't underestimate the three of them. If nothing else, none of you combined can compare to them compared to business. These businessmen are so cunning that ordinary officials can't deal with them at all. Let them come, you can definitely get twice the result with half the effort! ”
Guo Jia said earnestly.
But......
Xi Zhong was still a little hesitant.
This woman is an official, and she really hasn't done that.
He was also a conservative man.
In this way, Guo Jia thought about it for a while, and said: "Forget about the business yamen, just call it a business association." The person in charge is called the president and vice president. It is an institution that is not counted as an official government, but its functions and powers are similar to those of the government. ”
He couldn't help it, so he came up with a compromise solution.
It's just that women are generals, and the generals are happy, but let the women be officials, and the civil officials are a little unhappy.
In fact, the people who look down on women the most in these years are literati, so why don't you have a saying that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented?
Guo Jia is not a saint, nor is she a feminist.
Thousands of years of discrimination are not something he can save alone.
I can only go with the flow.
Equality?
It may not be possible for future generations to do so.
Therefore, he is not so deliberately pursuing.
All right!
Xi Zhong also nodded helplessly.
Since Guo Jiadu said so, it won't look good if he objects to it.
It's just that this master is tossing in the army, why do you still want to toss in the civil affairs?
Civil affairs is not so simple, and it involves the interests of all parties.
If women are allowed to be officials, it will inevitably cause some dissatisfaction.
Anyway, it's a quasi-governmental organization, and it's not a big deal to let a woman be the president.
It's a big deal, Xi Zhong publicly stated that this association is not an official government, but only works for the government.
Anyway, he didn't want to break the situation.
After implementing the matter of this business association, Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief.
Yunzhou's business system is the foundation on which he stands, and there must be no mistakes.
The emergence of this trade association can effectively ensure the orderly operation of Yunzhou's commerce and trade, and no longer allow those profiteers to take advantage of loopholes and affect the fairness of the market.
Su Qinglian is a strong woman, she just did what she said, and took her two sisters to the Yunzhou Business Association to take up her post on the same day.
Although she is only a president, she is also very excited.
Politics is also the ultimate goal of the business, and as the successor of the business, she has successfully taken this step.
The three of them are extremely familiar with business, and even if they close their eyes, they know the tricks of those profiteers.
A new broom sweeps clean.
After Su Qinglian, the president, arrived, he immediately introduced several rules, each of which hit the point of the profiteers.
Originally, the profiteers were still a little cynical about the matter of women being presidents, but they didn't expect that as soon as a few rules came out, they were a little dumbfounded.
This way is all directed at their point.
O connoisseur!
Seeing this, the profiteers were a little panicked.
This business association is like a clear stream, once again washing Yunzhou's commerce and trade, washing away the places where dirt and dirt are hidden, and giving Yunzhou commerce and trade a clean environment.
