Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 1471: Go ahead to dangers

If the government's money can be transferred to the railway company in the name of subsidies, bonuses, etc., then the problem arises.

Since government money can be used to subsidize railway companies, can they also subsidize steel companies and textile companies?

Can it subsidize enterprises affiliated to the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, can it also subsidize royal enterprises, subsidize local government-run enterprises, and even subsidize private enterprises?

In the end, what are the standards for subsidies, what companies can get subsidies, and will these subsidies save money for corrupt transactions?

These are all potentially major issues that make a large group of bigwigs extremely cautious.

It is precisely because of these potential problems that the storm of high-level public opinion has been detonated.

It's just that Chen Lifu is now in Guangzhou, and he doesn't know that Jinling has already made a fuss over his suggestion.

To be honest, he also knows the risks of this plan, but even so he still wants to do it. It doesn't cost money. It is difficult to wait for the railway company to build the railway. At least it will take three or five years to start the construction. .

By that time, he, Chen Lifu, will probably no longer work in Guangdong. Even if the railway is built at that time, he doesn't care!

If you want to do something, and you want to do it to make people look up, how can you not take a little risk.

He, Chen Lifu, can also just get along like most officials, but he is not reconciled, he wants to be in the top position, he wants to enter the imperial study and become the minister on duty!

It's just that it's too difficult to get the upper hand, even if he is now a provincial governor from the second rank, but if he wants to enter the imperial study and become the minister on duty, he must make great achievements. In terms of seniority, you won't have this chance until you reach an official position.

After all, there are quite a lot of officials in Datang, not to mention middle and low-level officials, only senior officials. At present, senior officials of Datang generally refer to officials from the third rank and above, and officials from the third rank and above are nationwide but There are thousands of people...

And this is all about incumbents and civil servants from the third rank and above who hold real positions!

Those who made official careers are naturally not included, and professors who work in scientific research institutions, educational institutions, etc. and enjoy treatment from the third rank and above are also not included.

Even a second-rank high-ranking official like Chen Lifu, this level is already a high-ranking official at the level of servants and governors, and there are more than 100 people across the country.

There are only a few high-ranking officials of the second grade, only more than 20 people.

As for the first grade and the first grade, these two grades are generally honorary titles. For example, Liu Bagou's Grand Scholar and Qian Yuli's Grand Scholar are currently only two people nationwide.

Chen Lifu wanted to emerge from this group of more than 100 people, be valued by the Son of Heaven, be promoted, and finally enter the imperial study to become the minister on duty, which is not that difficult.

You have to know that his competitors are actually more than 100 people, because no matter whether there are officials who are promoted or demoted, they are going to work. From the second-rank officials, and then another batch of second-rank officials went to work, only a very few were able to go through the big waves and wash the sand, and then continue to rise a step higher.

In fact, nine out of ten are stagnant, and finally can only serve as a second-rank official.

There are many reasons for the large number of officials in the Tang Dynasty. If it is about the grass-roots officials, it is actually not much more than the traditional dynasty, because the traditional dynasty seems to have only a few officials in a county, but there are also a lot of official hires below. As for the staff, such as the yamen, in addition to a few serious yamen, there are also a lot of so-called idlers.

Therefore, in the traditional feudal dynasties, there are not many people who eat imperial grain, but there are only a few people.

And Li Xuan's Datang Empire only gave those people who used to eat imperial food but had no official status to give them a formal official status and incorporated them into the official system. for the sake of it.

In fact, most of the ninth-rank and eighth-rank grass-roots officials are ordinary clerks, patrol officers, etc. with a large number. Although they have official status, their salaries are also the standard of ordinary people, and they are also doing ordinary jobs.

And there are many middle and senior officials, this is because there are many official agencies in Datang!

The official system of the Tang Dynasty was not the same as that of the traditional dynasties. The various institutions of the Tang Dynasty divided the powers into a more detailed way, such as the cabinet ministries. In the early years, he directly split the traditional six ministries into nine ministries. After the increase, today's Gyeonggi ministries and some agencies directly under the cabinet have been formed.

At present, there are fifteen ministries in the cabinet.

Among the top weighted departments, the first choice should be the Ministry of Personnel, because this department is the agency responsible for personnel, because it is in charge of the evaluation, appointment and removal of officials, and it is also responsible for researching, reforming and adjusting administrative agencies.

The second place should belong to the Ministry of Commerce. This agency is in charge of industrial and commercial development. Specifically, mining, manufacturing, various commercial activities, overseas trade, etc. are all under their jurisdiction. Manuscript industry and commerce, so the influence of the Ministry of Commerce will naturally increase.

After that, there are several departments such as the Ministry of Taxation, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Patrol.

Needless to say, the Ministry of Taxation was responsible for collecting taxes and was very powerful in the early years, but after the internal stability of the empire, its right to speak gradually declined.

Then there is the Ministry of Agriculture, which is responsible for all agricultural and mulberry affairs, fisheries, forestry and other affairs. It seems that it only deals with grain and wood, but from ancient times to the present, the agencies that deal with grain have always been the weighted department. , because the people take food as their heaven.

Then there is the Ministry of Rites. The Ministry of Rites in the Tang Dynasty is somewhat different from the traditional Ministry of Rites, but also has great similarities, because the Ministry of Rites in the Tang Dynasty was in charge of education, imperial examinations, etiquette, and propaganda affairs. Speaking of which, the political status was actually It is no worse than the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Taxation, and because the Ministry of Rites is a traditional clearing institution, it is very popular among officials.

In addition, there are the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Patrol and other institutions.

The Ministry of State-owned Enterprises is in charge of all government-run enterprises. In short, it is the official asset management institution of Datang. It is an institution, but it is more like a group company headquarters of many government-run enterprises. Of course, they manage many government-run enterprises. The power is not too small.

As for the Ministry of Finance, this institution is mainly responsible for spending money in the Tang Dynasty, responsible for the financial budget, the distribution of salaries of officials and soldiers, etc. In addition, the central bank is also under their control.

Patrol Department, this is the agency responsible for national security affairs.

Later, the Ministry of Household, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Army, Ministry of Navy, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Ministry of Justice.

The reason why they are ranked at the back is because their influence is relatively average.

The Ministry of Household only has the power to manage civil affairs, and many times this is just a decoration. Later, Li Xuan added power to this agency and gave it the only ability to manage the internal affairs of each agency. To put it bluntly, it is to act as the logistics steward of many agencies in Datang. .

The Ministry of Industry, the first authority of the Tang Dynasty in the early years, has completely degenerated into a large state-owned construction team, and only has the power to preside over various large-scale basic facilities, such as building a water conservancy, building a palace What.

In the past, many functions of the Ministry of Industry were deprived. For example, the function of managing industrial and commercial affairs was deprived and became the Ministry of Commerce. For example, the function of managing government-run enterprises was also independent and became the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises. The function of traffic management was also deprived, and the Ministry of Communications was established separately.

The newly established Ministry of Communications has the power to manage national transportation affairs, including railways, official roads, urban transportation, shipping, etc.

The Ministry of the Army and the Ministry of the Navy, these two agencies have always had little influence in the cabinet, because their main functions are recruiting troops, placing veterans, etc., and more of it is a means used by civilians to contain the military.

Then there are the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Legal Affairs, these two institutions have no sense of existence.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is in charge of foreign affairs and vassal affairs, but Datang has basically no foreign affairs to handle, nor vassal affairs, so it is a serious Qingshui Yamen.

The Legal Department is better, but it doesn’t have much power. This agency is responsible for drafting various legal documents and managing the legal profession and prisons in various places. The most important power among them is the drafting of various legal documents. In fact, they There is no independent power, and they often cooperate with various departments. They mainly give some professional opinions. In the end, whether the law can be formed or not, they have the final say, the emperor has the final say.

Basically, they spend the whole year at their desks, flipping through and writing various legal documents.

In this way, there are the Ministry of Police, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Army, the Ministry of the Navy, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Taxation, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, a total of fifteen. There are fifteen ministers and thirty ministers.

In addition, there are six departments, bureaus, supervisors, and bureaus directly under the cabinet, such as the General Administration of Customs, the Health Bureau, etc. The directors of these departments and bureaus directly under the cabinet are also high-ranking officials from the second rank.

Then there are the two major institutions, the Grand Court and the Inspectorate. The rank of the people is also very high. After the restructuring, there is a Zhengdu Censor. The grade is the second grade. The second grade, docking with the waiter.

The same goes for the Grand Court.

At the same time, because the Zhengdu Censor and the Grand Judge are both on duty in the imperial study, their political status is higher than that of ordinary ministers.

In addition to Gyeonggi institutions, there are also local institutions. Datang now has 25 provincial highways, from north to south, they are Northeast, Liaodong, Liaoxi, Hefeng, Shaanxi, Gansu, Shanxi, Shandong and Henan~www.wuxiaspot .com~ Jiangbei, Jiangnan, Wanbei, Wannan, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Guangdong, Fujian, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan.

In addition to the above twenty-five provincial highways, there is another Chengtianfu with a very special political status. Well, it is often referred to as Jinling City and Jingshi. This is not an ordinary provincial highway, but it is listed separately.

There are also many overseas territories, such as Ryukyu, Luzon, Banten, Malacca, Gehe, Honolulu, New Jinshan, South Australia and more than a dozen overseas state capitals with official official administrative agencies. , the grades of each state capital are different, some are high and some are low.

Such a large number of Gyeonggi institutions and local institutions naturally resulted in a huge number of officials, resulting in thousands of senior officials even from the third rank.

It is not easy for Chen Lifu to fight his way through so many high-ranking officials!
