Chapter 2268 The House Leaked and It Rained All Night
The leader of the Dongshan Group who stayed behind was called Li Ping, a seemingly dull young man who used to be a small unit chief under the Finance and Accounting Department of Dongshan Group.
When Dongshan was in chaos, the original organizational structure was completely disrupted. Those with official status fled or fled, leaving only Li Ping, who was hiding everywhere. When the limelight calmed down a bit, he risked his life and returned to Dongshan's Yamen.
Now, among all the left-behind officials in Dongshan, he is the only remaining unit chief.
Seeing Xu Yi, Li Ping saluted respectfully without even raising his eyebrows.
Xu Yi was worried that he would be under pressure, so he drove Zhong Wu out of the hall. Cheng Yan led a group of troops to guard the door.
Now that he has soldiers and horses under his command, Cheng Yan, the polished personal guard captain, finally has his own subordinates.
After the room was cleared, Xu Yi didn't ask Li Ping to do anything about his affairs. Instead, he asked Li Ping directly about the situation of the three cities in Dongshan.
The war broke out extremely fiercely, and the treasury was swept away. Not even written materials were left. It was really a hard job.
Xu Yi went straight in. Li Ping was not surprised. He seemed to have been prepared to be summoned by Xu Yi. Without any panic, he introduced the situation of Dongshan's three cities.
"Dongshan subordinately governs the three cities of Anlu, Jingshan, and Fengle. Before the war, Anlu had a population of more than 5 million, Jingshan had a population of more than 6 million, and Fengle City was the most prosperous, with a population of more than 10 million. After the war, people's livelihood was in decline, and Anlu and Jingshan lost nearly 30% of their population. Fengle City is too close to Fengqi Mountain, so the loss will only be even greater, which is difficult to estimate."
After Li Ping finished speaking, he took a careful look at Xu Yi. Seeing that his expression was as usual, he secretly admired him.
In fact, if Xu Yi took office directly, Li Ping would never be so cooperative.
After all, the Dongshan genus in front of us is really a big mess. Without strong strength and background, anyone who rashly gets involved will not end well.
Originally, he was most optimistic about Zheng Bahuo, a man with strong strength and background.
Unexpectedly, just when Xu Yi showed his talents, Zheng Bahuo was killed on the spot. What shocked him most was that Xu Yi personally entered Fengqi Mountain and instantly ordered Huang Kai, who had caused trouble for Zhongshan Mansion for many years, to automatically disband Fengqi Mountain.
After these things, Li Ping was extremely optimistic about Xu Yi, so he took the initiative to invest.
Xu Yi said, "Since there is a disaster year, the taxes paid by Dongshan to the government should be reduced."
Before taking up his post, Xu Yi had an in-depth chat with Zhao Ling and had some understanding of the situation in Dongshan.
Although Dongshan was in war, Zhongshan Mansion did not forget to harvest Dongshan's wish beads. Now that he has taken office, it will be nearly a year before the next batch of wish beads matures.
As usual, 40% of the harvested wish beads will be handed over to the government, 20% will be charged to the government treasury, and the remaining 40% will be assigned to the order and deployed by yourself.
Just looking at this condition, you can imagine why people flock to a subordinate order. If it is managed properly, it is not an exaggeration to say that it will soar into the sky.
However, Zhao Ling also said that once you serve as an official, you will inevitably have to deal with it from top to bottom. In the end, the number that falls into your hands is far less than you imagined.
No matter what, the basic figures are here. Even if the water gets wet, it will be enough for him to make a fortune.
Soon, Li Ping's words broke his fantasy, "To be honest with you, your lord, if Zheng Bahuo is the vassal order of Dongshan, the government will definitely agree to reduce it, but if your lord takes this tributary order, I'm afraid it won't be reduced. It will increase.”
Xu Yi immediately frowned, stared at Li Ping and said, "What do you mean? Even if the superiors refuse to reduce or reduce the amount, there is absolutely no reason to increase it."
Li Ping said, "If you use official means, your Excellency will definitely suffer. As a rule, the government levies 30% of the income from subordinates every year. Your Excellency also said before that today is a famine year, and the population of the three cities has been seriously lost. At that time, There is a reduction or exemption. In fact, there may not be a reduction or exemption above, and the levy is still 30%, and the levy is 30% based on the number before the population was lost. This will definitely increase the burden on my Dongshan family greatly. "
Xu Yi had a big knot on his brow. He was convinced by Li Ping's analysis.
The one above had offended Gong Chao and Cao Neng. He could imagine with his toes that there must be some small shoes falling down. Maybe the small shoes were on their way here.
According to Li Ping's analysis, the situation is too dangerous. If it is a hard work, it will not be enough to pay taxes to the superiors.
At the moment, Xu Yi asked Li Ping to help calculate, in the most sinister way, whether the remaining wish beads after paying the taxes could still keep Dongshan's operation running.
Li Pingping hesitated for a while, then said, "To be honest, sir, there is no way to calculate it."
Xu Yi asked in surprise, "What do you mean? I'm just asking you to estimate. You can always calculate it based on the maximum number of people missing."
Li Ping said with a bitter look on his face, "My lord is new here. I'm afraid you don't know. Now, in the three cities, lewd priests are rampant and have taken away the population of Yuanli. It is impossible to measure."
"What!"
Xu Yi was struck by lightning.
It's true that the house leaked and it rained all night, and the boat broke and was hit by the wind.
Has the world become such a mess?
"What's the point of Zheng Bahuo coming to rob me of such a messy stall?"
Xu Yi stared blankly.
Li Ping said, "Whatever it is, it will be easier if there is someone above. If it were Zheng Bahuo who would be the one to do this, the higher-ups would always give Zheng Bahuo a few years of leniency to rectify the situation." It’s clear that he is here to get gold, and I’m afraid if he doesn’t survive the exemption period for a few years, he will be promoted.”
After a moment of silence, Xu Yi said, "In a situation like this, what can you teach me?"
He has a strong temper when things get tough. When he gets discouraged a little, he will think about it. He has encountered no matter how difficult the situation is, and the difficulties in front of him are nothing.
Li Ping said, "The subordinates are just mediocre people and can't help you to break Huang Kai's knot. But I know that your top priority is to establish the system. The officials of each department should make arrangements first. Once the generals and yamen commanders arrive, they will definitely be there." Constraints.”
Xu Yi slapped his thigh hard, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have missed something important."
A normal organizational structure for a genus has one person, the subordinate commander, the next-level judge, and the officer commander, and further down, there are four section chiefs, the chief of the finance and accounting section, the chief of the robbery section, the chief of the internal affairs section, and the chief of the herdsmen section. long.
Each subject designs each section according to actual needs. It is true that although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.
Within a genus, the tributary order has the power to appoint the chiefs of the four major departments, while the tributary judge and the yamen commander also have the power to make suggestions to the government.
Nowadays, the entire Dongshan clan's new organizational structure must be based on the Yiqu soldiers brought by Xu Yi as the skeleton. Xu Yi is not worried about the organizational issues.
Now, as soon as Li Ping reminded him, he immediately realized the danger and immediately beat the drum to gather his generals.
Four section chiefs were appointed.
They are Zhang Jian, chief of the finance and accounting section; Li Xin, chief of the robbery section; Zhong Wu, chief of the internal affairs section; Li Ping, chief of the herdsman section;
In addition, he also promoted various section chiefs in various departments in one fell swoop. As long as there was a name, all of them were filled by his people.
