Chapter 20 Supervisor!traitor

During dinner, Sun Xiangfu summoned the whole village to speak a few words, mainly to tell everyone not to worry, and give birth with peace of mind. Those people are just clowns in the daytime, and they have ways to deal with them. Then he ordered Sun Dali to lead the strong men to guard the door , to hide the entrances to the cellars of each family, and he himself drove the fast boat made by Old Man Yang to Chang'an early the next morning.

"Caijin is touching! These families are really troublesome." Qin Qiong got a report from Uncle De, and immediately agreed to meet Sun Xiangfu. After listening to Sun Xiangfu's story, he frowned.

Nowadays, eating fish is popular in Chang'an City. New-style stir-fried dishes such as stir-fried shredded eel have been sold for 400 yuan a plate in restaurants, and only early customers can eat it. The profit from this dish alone It is more than [-] articles. It is conceivable that the restaurant industry in Chang'an City has attracted a lot of money recently. Naturally, these restaurants were not opened by the upstarts who followed Li Shimin to conquer the world. They have just made a fortune and do not have the financial resources. Therefore, these old restaurants Behind them are all old aristocratic families, and those under the names of seven sects and five accounted for more than half.

The profiteering industry that is advancing thousands of times every day will naturally be valued by the family, so Sun Xiangfu is sad.However, since the eyes of the seven families and five surnames are focused on him, Sun Xiangfu doesn't want to sit still. He would rather give the fish to the emperor than to these families. After all, Li Tang's boat is more reliable than the family, but he didn't expect However, it was the helmsman of the ship that he believed to be reliable who wanted to exploit his fish, which led to today's scene. Li Shimin is not Li Yuan, and the aristocratic family is often a target that can be used in his hands.

"Yi Gong, can you ask Your Majesty to include Xingfu Village in Huangzhuang?"

Qin Qiong's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he nodded appreciatively at Sun Xiangfu and said, "Perhaps, this is also a solution! The old man will go to the palace to see His Majesty."

Li Shimin ascended the throne yesterday, and everyone's titles have changed accordingly today.Moreover, Li Shimin has also officially entered the Taiji Palace, and it is not as convenient to enter and exit as the previous Qin Palace.

Sun Xiangfu waited anxiously in the Qin family. Now those families can send a team of private soldiers and generals to wipe out Xingfu Village. Moreover, the case may not be resolved, so he can't help but be in a hurry!This is the cruel side of the feudal society. Ordinary people, their lives are worthless.

In the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin, who had just ascended the throne, was a little high-spirited, and he was reviewing the memorial with his hands flying in vain!Qin Qiong came to his royal case led by the servant.

"Shu Bao came in such a hurry, is there something wrong?"

After a simple salute, Qin Qiong told Li Shimin about what happened to Sun Xiangfu here. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was not surprised at all, but asked Qin Qiong to go back first, and later there was a decree to come to his house.

After Qin Qiong left, Li Shimin finally said to the servant Wang, "The edict that was drafted two days ago can be read at the Qin residence."

After Wang Deyong left, Li Shimin put down the imperial brush, his eyes full of deepness.

The aristocratic family made him both love and hate, using them to govern the world is more effective, but these big families only have family interests in their eyes, and they have no loyalty to the monarch. Li Shimin saw their true colors just by luring them.

No way, whoever is the emperor, with their innate conditions, can live a carefree life, and occasionally do things that provoke the imperial power, but you dare not touch him, which makes Li Shimin, who has a strong desire for control, feel very passive. Even if he is in power and can play with them, if a hundred years later, the descendants are a little weaker, I am afraid they will be taken advantage of by these aristocratic families. You must know that Li Shimin himself was born in an aristocratic family, and he knows how ambitious his power is when he accumulates to a certain level horrible.

In the Qin mansion, when he learned that the servants were coming to announce the decree, he prepared the incense table in advance, and Uncle Fu even asked Sun Xiangfu to take a bath and change into decent clothes.

"The imperial decree arrives..."

The eunuch Wang Deyong, whose face was as white as paper, unfolded a roll of yellow silk and read the four characters for a long time. When Sun Xiangfu's knees were hurting, he finally finished reading.

"Uh, that, should I thank the Lord for your kindness?" Sun Xiangfu asked in a daze.

"Well, it's not bad to say that you are an official." Qin Qiong nodded and said.

"Uh, is it different for other officials?" Sun Xiangfu was surprised.

"It's a little different. From now on, you will be His Majesty's retainer." Wang Deyong bowed his hands to Qin Qiong before taking the words.

"Retainer? Crooked?"

"Xia Mu Jiancheng is an official position under the seventh rank, but it does not belong to the rank of courtiers. It is an official position to manage the royal property for His Majesty..." Qin Qiong was afraid that Sun Xiangfu would be rude in front of the servants, so he slowly explained to him.

After listening to Qin Qiong's words, Sun Xiangfu finally knew what kind of official he was. According to the old rules, the entire Shanglin Garden belonged to the royal manor, with tens of thousands of hectares of fields, large forests, pastures, dozens of ponds and lakes, so he set up He took an official position to manage Shanglinyuan Huangzhuang, called Shanglinyuanjian, the official position is the sixth rank, because it is equivalent to Zhongmujian, it is also called Zhongmujian, one level lower than the director of Gongwan, but the management of Huangzhuang is a foreign minister. And professional, do not need castration.

Under the Zhongmujian, there is a Mujian, which is an official position under the sixth grade, and is in charge of the four major categories of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery in Huangzhuang. Sun Xiangfu is now bestowed with the position of Xiamujiancheng, but there is a Xiamujian Generally, Sikou will not set up a supervisor, but will directly set up a deputy supervisor. Setting up this supervisor is to ask him to act as an agent for one of the supervisors, so Li Shimin named him in the imperial decree to manage the fishery department of Huangzhuang fishery. .

Sun Xiangfu always felt uncomfortable when he heard his official title, Jian Cheng, treacherous minister, dizzy.

Officials under the seventh rank are not small, almost on the same level as a county magistrate in a middle and lower county. Although they are not courtiers and their status is lower than the same level, it is not bad to start as an official. Anyway, Sun Xiangfu is not Knowing whether being an emperor's retainer is considered an official, what he doesn't know is that this series of officials will end at the top of the pastoral supervisor, and it is just a position lower than the fifth rank. Generally, only those noble children and clan members Only those who wait for the dead will serve here.

After receiving the imperial decree and official plate, the official uniform and official seal will be delivered by the servants. Surprisingly, there is also an official horse. All high-ranking officials in the Tang Dynasty are equipped with official horses. This is the system.

After taking these things, Sun Xiangfu is considered an official, and the emperor stipulated that he should report to the Animal Husbandry Supervision Office within three days without delay.

After figuring out the content of the imperial decree, Sun Xiangfu and Wang Deyong inquired about the location of the Yamen of the Shepherd's Office, the name of the Shangguan, etc., before sending him out with Qin Qiong.

"Enjoy blessings! You will be an official in the future, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and maintain the dignity of the court. With His Majesty's attitude, those aristocratic families will not be too outrageous." Qin Qiong urged, and Sun Xiangfu nodded in agreement, but Qin Qiong was no longer a long-winded person, so after a few words of explanation, he asked him to go back to the village to make arrangements, announce his identity, and then report to the imperial city. There was no other way, the yamen of the animal husbandry supervision office was in the imperial city.

When Sun Xiangfu arrived at Xingfu Village by boat in the afternoon of the next day, he suddenly found a large stone archway erected at the entrance of the village, with the four words "Royal Farm" engraved in the center of the archway. At that time, there were actually a few people in official costumes welcoming him at the small pier in front of the village.

"Zhang Shengye, Li Wenbin, Hao Tong, the clerks of the Fisheries Department of the Animal Husbandry Supervision Office, and Xiong Tingzhong met Lord Jiancheng."

"Uh, a few of you are exempt."

The first time someone bowed to him, Sun Xiangfu was still a little uncomfortable. Moreover, among the four people who bowed to him, none of them were younger than 30 years old.

After walking a few steps ashore, Sun Xiangfu remembered to ask, "What are you guys doing here?"

The four of them glanced at each other, and Zhang Shengye took the lead to report to Sun Xiangfu, "Your Majesty has issued an order to accept Xingfu Village into Huangzhuang. We are here to set up a memorial archway, and count the fields and population of the village."

"Does everything here belong to His Majesty in the future?" Sun Xiangfu felt a little bit of his own things being taken away, and, looking at the posture of these people, it seemed that he had been prepared to do things while he was away. Got tricked?
"No, according to the usual practice, as long as each Huangzhuang provides output according to the documents listed in the inner palace, the households can distribute the balance by themselves. Now half of the land in Xingfu Village has been designated as your job field by His Majesty. When it is collected, the amount will be reduced accordingly.

In addition, the Department of Fisheries has a staff establishment of 16 people. In addition to the four of us, there are five people in the Yamen, and the remaining seven are vacant. There are also 120 servants, and there are actually 35 people in the Yamen.Right now, you are the acting supervisor, so I will be responsible for distributing the salaries of these people..."
