Guan Zhuofan said: "The 'Selected Stocks' of the Advisory Committee - well, imitating the examples of 'railway stocks' and 'treasury bond stocks', it is called 'Selected Stocks'? The general manager is responsible for the general office, I ask for the general office, the general office of the "Wen Xuan Stock", set as the three products - Dingfang, you have been awarded the title of inspector of the three products, just right! ”

Qian Dingming's heart is hot: This is not "just right"!

"Three-rank rank", "three-rank top" and the like, in fact, are not unusual, because this is just a kind of honor, even a powerful businessman, if he contributes to the court, can keep this title. For example, Hu Xueyan at present is "an alternate Taoist in Jiangxi according to the rank of inspector and envoy" -- in the final analysis, his real official status is nothing more than a "alternate dao."

But the real lack of the three products is terrible! In the Beijing officials, they can be compared to the "Great Nine Qings" -- for example, the Dali Siqing, the Taichang Siqing, and the general political envoys of the General Administration Department are all positive three products.

For Qian Dingming, this can almost be regarded as "one step to the sky"!

Also, if he is not in the advisory committee, but in the Ministry of Officials, and acts as a similar messenger, such as the "palm print" of the head of the first department, who is in charge of the Wenxuan Qing Officials Division or the Examination of Merit and Qing Officials, then his official position can only be Langzhong - the official rank of the Ministry of Officials, and the deputy hall - that is, under the Lang Lang, he will go to Langzhong, and Langzhong is only the fifth grade.

This seems to be a very strange phenomenon: the waiter Lang is the second grade, the Lang is the fifth grade, and there is a large section in the middle - a full fifth level.

In fact, this kind of official rank setting clearly shows that the personnel power of the empire is in the hands of the emperor and the military machine, and in the hands of the local government and the governor, and the officials only have the "right to do things" and do not have the "right to do things".

This is also the reason why the influence of the scribe is so great: the clerk does not have the power to appoint and dismiss personnel, and its main responsibility is to "follow the procedure", and the procedure is in the hands of the scribe.

The conversation was a little farther away, and he returned to Qian Dingming - he got up from his seat and bowed slightly: "Thank you for your cultivation!" ”

Guan Zhuofan asked him to sit down, and then said with a smile: "Dingfang, the name of 'Wenxuan Stocks' is not loud, but the general office is a positive three products, so it seems to be a bit contradictory, I ask you to think about it, what is this for?" ”

This is quite a school examination.

Qian Dingming didn't dare to slack off, pondered for a moment, and said: "The prince is strategic, far-sighted, I think, the prince's vision is not under the hub, but in the ...... between the parties. ”

"Hub" refers to the capital and the imperial court; "Aspect" refers to the local governor.

Guan Zhuofan stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, sure enough, it's 'those who know me, and Dingfang also'!" I'm just going to take this 'Wen Xuan Stock' and move the prison of the governors! ”

The laughter stopped, and he said word by word: "Our 'Xuan Xuan' is going to be a 'tiger class'!" ”

"This is the third 'talking head'!"

As mentioned earlier, the personnel power of the empire, central, was in the hands of the emperor and the military machine; The local is in the hands of the governor. Alternate officials, distributed to the province, can make up for what is lacking, whether it is good or bad, fat or thin, all in the thought of the superintendent. Sometimes, Shangxian sees that you are not pleasing to the eye, or the filial piety is insufficient, and the desire is not satisfied, so you are idle in the provincial city, and it is not uncommon for Baba to spend a year and a half.

However, there is one exception.

Xinke Jinshi, after obtaining the background, tried to take the "court examination" presided over by the emperor himself, passed the test, and the best one was "Shu Jishi", and entered the Hanlin Academy to study; The rest are either used as the heads of various ministries, the cabinet secretary, or sent to the local area, and serve as the main hall of a county.

Some of them even specify prefectures and counties, and the governors are not allowed to bargain, and they are called "ready-to-use under the list," commonly known as the "tiger class" -- it is said that its momentum is fierce, and the governor has to avoid it.

"Xuan Xuan" became a "Tiger Class"? That is, distribution by name? Ready-to-use?

The confinement of the governors is really going to "move"!

Qian Dingming was excited and uneasy: will it be ...... to do it like this?

Guan Zhuofan saw what Qian Dingming had to worry about, and said: "Dingfang, I will explain to you a true word - taking power from the governor and centralizing power at the center, this is the established charter of the imperial court, whether it is 'above' or the people on the military plane, everyone is of the same mind!" It's just that I can't say this openly. So, don't worry about any big noise in the court. ”

After a pause, he said, "We don't have to worry about the governors jumping on their feet. ”

"The brothers who retired from the Xuan Army, when they came out of office, at the beginning, they mainly walked around the New Deal and foreign affairs -- most of the New Policies and foreign affairs were originally in our own hands."

"If we are responsible for prefectures and counties, the first choice will be places like Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangdong - Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangdong, which can be regarded as our own territory; Secondly, Shandong, Fujian, Shandong, Fujian, we also talked about it; Third, it is Yunnan, Guangxi, Yunnan, and Guangxi, and the places are not good, and there is another reason for military affairs. ”

"For more than two years, the 'Tiger Class' of 'Xuanxuan' has become a rule, and if it is distributed to other provinces, no one can say or dare to say anything."

Speaking of this, Guan Zhuofan smiled slightly: "Perhaps, by then, our territory has been greatly expanded, and all kinds of worries and calculations today are redundant." ”

Expanding the territory?

Guan Zhuofan saw Qian Dingming's inquiring look, and smiled slightly: "I have already asked someone to take a telegram to Tianjin, and early the day after tomorrow, Yizishan will go to Anqing on business." Hehe, Dingfang, you wait and see, I invite you to watch a good show! ”

Ixan is the governor of Anhui, so ......

Guan Zhuofan knew what Qian Dingming was thinking, nodded, and said: "Zishan is the governor of Anhui, and when he goes to Anhui, it is naturally a matter of military affairs. Anhui's green camp adaptation, has been stumbling, unclear, hum, you have to take a good look! ”

Qian Dingming's mind turned, and he said: "In addition to military affairs in Anhui, salt affairs are also important!" ”

Guan Zhuofan raised an index finger, nodded at Qian Dingming weakly, and smiled: "Dingming, you really know me!" ”

After a pause, he said: "Zhang Liuzhi's rebellion has been peaceful, and a single Changlu salt field is more than enough to feed the three new divisions of the Xuan Army!" With these two thousand heads, I think the 'flowers' are worth it! ”

Speaking of the word "flower", the corners of Guan Zhuofan's mouth twitched slightly, and his face was slightly hideous, Qian Dingming saw it, and his heart couldn't help but sudden.

"With such a large source of wealth, expect me to let go? -- Some people are really burned out of their brains! Hehe, maybe the head has moved away from the neck cavity, but it can be clearer! ”

Guan Zhuofan's tone had calmed down, but the fierceness and spicinessness in his words were even more palpitating.

Qian Dingming was shocked: Do you want to roll over again? This time, who is the unlucky ghost who doesn't open his eyes?

He pondered for a moment, and said meaningfully: "If the military affairs are smoothed out, the salt affairs will naturally be easy to handle." ”

"Exactly!" Guan Zhuofan looked at Qian Dingming with great admiration, "Military affairs, salt affairs, this is one and two, two and one!" ”

After a pause, he said: "Start with military affairs and salt affairs, open the gap, and the hard bone of Anhui should be able to gnaw down!" ”

Qian Dingming knew why Guan Zhuofan called Anhui a "hard bone" -- among the provinces that qualified to be called "wealth abyss," Anhui's situation was the most complicated and difficult to deal with -- at least one of them.

Anhui is the place where the Huai army made its fortune, and the Hunan army has fought the most tough battles in Anhui, and its power in Anhui Province is even greater. In addition to these two families, the remnants of Hong Yang and Twist are also extremely deep in Anhui. Anhui is the barrier of Jiangning to the west, and Hongyang is the most powerful; The twist is fundamentally from Anhui. In addition, Miao Peilin also takes Anhui as his nest, and Li Shizhong is still entrenched in it, and his tail is still big.

Also, between Anqing and Jiangning, the distance is close, up and down the river, the traffic is too convenient, and the governor of Anhui is always in the shadow of the governor of Liangjiang.

Yinghan, the governor of Anhui, in modern terms, is a "lame duck governor".

It seems that at the beginning of the new year, the first shot of the prince's "expansion of territory" will be launched in Anhui!

In addition, Anhui and Jiangsu are extremely closely related, and the so-called "two Huai" spans Anhui and Suzhou, among them, the Jiangsu part of the "two Huai" is basically the land of the governor of Liangjiang.

"Expand the territory", after Anhui, where is it?

Qian Dingming's feeling of excitement and uneasiness surfaced again, but this time, the excitement was greater than the uneasiness.

Well, move the bench and watch the play.
