406. Planning
Ding Min is Ding Chaoyi, who paved the road on Longyou Road in the early years. He was promoted to Beijing after paving the cement road. However, over the years, he has not made much progress. The reason for this is mainly because he lacks a powerful family as support.
Xiao Yu is a straight man and has a good character, but he is a little too straight and not very tolerant. Ding Min just caught his eye.
This time, Xiao Yu recommended Ding Min to Guazhou, which was also for his consideration. Now Longyou Road can produce white flowers, Luo Yong and others have paved many tracks on that area and opened many workshops. The development and construction are very good, and they are no longer as barren as before. For people like Ding Min who can't compete with others in Chang'an City, going there to be an official is also a very good choice.
Chen Jiao's family took this opportunity to find a position as governor for him on Shannan Road, and replaced the old governor who was about to retire when he was old.
For the Chen family, although Longxi is good, Chen Jiao is lucky enough to keep a thief head like Luo Yong, and later he has a direct boss like Guo Xiaoke. If he keeps there like this, it will be difficult to make any progress. It would be better to transfer back to the Central Plains. After all, their Chen family is not a very powerful first-class family. There are not many young children in the family who are truly talented. It is better to bring Chen Jiao back to the Central Plains and cultivate it. Maybe he will achieve some success in the future.
As for the original Chang'an County Magistrate, although his political achievements in the past two or three years were mediocre, this time he was transferred, he went directly to the Secretariat and became a Secretariat servant, which shows how powerful the family power behind him is.
The current courts are in the system of three provinces and six ministries. The three provinces are the Secretariat, the Secretariat, and the Menxia Province. At this time in the Tang Dynasty, there was no prime minister position. The heads of these three provinces are equivalent to prime ministers, and the second in charge of these three provinces are equivalent to deputy prime ministers.
Only the Shangshu Province is quite special. Because Li Shimin often regarded himself as Shangshu Ling, no one dared to be that official. So generally speaking, the Shangshu Ling, the Shangshu Ling, the Shangshu Ling, is basically equivalent to the position of prime minister.
From this perspective, there seemed to be many prime ministers in the court. In fact, some positions are vacant all year round, and there are not so many prime ministers in the court.
And the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat was in a position slightly lower than the Deputy Prime Minister.
There are a total of six people in the position of the Secretariat. Whoever can rise in the end will definitely have a competition. If there is no strong enough family force to support it, it will be difficult to gain an advantage in such a battle.
The arrangements of these people were quickly decided. However, the Changle County Magistrate who was vacant after Luo Yong left was put on hold for a long time and was unable to find a specific candidate.
Although the position of Changle County Magistrate, although the official position is low and not a local official, there are many good things in Changle County now. Not to mention anything else, the thoric stone lampshade workshop and the cotton gin workshop are very attractive to many families.
This matter has been delayed for a long time, and Aunt Luo is also very concerned about who the court will send to take over Luo Yong's official position. She has always been paying attention to it and often asks people for inquiries.
As a result, when the final person was selected, Aunt Luo was very surprised. How could she have imagined that this time the Bai family would send Bai Yimao, the eldest son and grandson of their family, to Longxi to be the county magistrate.
Although the Bai family is not among the five surnames and seven hopes of the current five surnames, it is a relatively high-ranking family in Chang'an City. Why is it so good that it is to send Bai Yimao to the border area to be the county magistrate?
I heard that although other families also wanted the position of Changle County Magistrate, they were unwilling to let their very important children in the family go to work because of their identity.
In contrast, the Bai family directly took out a eldest son and grandson this time, which seemed very sincere. The saints and the ministers in the court who did not participate in this competition actually valued Changle County. The Bai family was so serious that it was naturally in line with their wishes.
The Bai family also has their own considerations. Although Bai Yimao, a young man, seemed a little out of tune a few years ago, he actually had a bottom line in his life and even had a bit of chivalrousness in his bones. Such a person is not very able to adapt to the struggles and struggles in the officialdom.
The elders of the Bai family cherish his integrity and are unwilling to let him enter the officialdom early before he is full of wings. They neither want to see his ambitions being bruised, nor do they want him to learn to compromise and smoothly too early.
Now the former crown prince has been deposed, and King Li Tai of Wei has left Chang'an City. Only the new crown prince Li Zhi remains with the saint. As long as nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely be the future king.
In the previous battle between the crown prince, the Bai family did not stand either Li Chengqian or Li Tai. This would certainly gain Li Zhi's favor to a certain extent. As long as the Bai family manages carefully, it will not be too bad in the future.
The new crown prince is still young and the saints in the court are in power. It is useless to contact him too much at this time, and it is unhappy to make the saints unhappy in vain.
After a few years, when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will definitely have a stage of being full of energy and wanting to create a great cause.
By then, let Bai Yimao come back, the young man is full of energy, knowledgeable, and has a lot of understanding of the Western Regions, which is in line with the idea that the Li family has always wanted to manage the Western Regions. In addition, the Bai family has been careful management over the years, so Bai Yimao should be reused.
Letting Bai Yimao go to Changle County was an arrangement for their Bai family to talk about Bai Yimao's career, and it was also a plan for the future of their entire Bai family.
There is no doubt that this is a huge investment and it also takes certain risks.
The reason why they were willing to take this risk was because Luo Yong had said in his letter earlier that in the future, Longxi, Xizhou, Yizhou, Guazhou and Shazhou, a golden four corners will be formed, and prosperity is comparable to the Central Plains.
This is the direction of Luo Yong's efforts over the years, and it is also the future he predicted. Although it may not be true, the Bai family is still willing to let Bai Yimao take a chance. If he wins, he will be the top talent of the young talents of the generation among the gentry, and his future is limitless.
Before leaving, the elders of the Bai family also had many explanations to Bai Yimao.
"You go, when you arrive in Changle County, you will follow Saburo's arrangements and don't take your own decisions."
"This time I will arrange for some family servants to go with you. I heard that the people in Longxi are quite handsome, and you are also good at riding and shooting, and you like making friends. There is no need to worry about this."
"When you go there, there is no parent's supervision. Remember not to indulge in pleasure."
"You just need to carry forward Changle County. If you encounter any difficult situation, write a letter in time to discuss with your family. You may ask Tang Jian for advice. This time we also have letters to Tang Jian, so that he can take care of you."
"Guo Xiaoke is a rough man, but he is not stupid. Although you are from a gentry, you don't want to compete with him in the Hexi land. He will not provoke you even if he has nothing to do."
"County lieutenant Guo Fenglai was placed by the imperial court, you know this..."
“…”
"Forget it, just say this."
"If you can manage Changle County better than Jinchang City, I will report to the king to change Changle County into Guazhou. Do you know what I mean?"
"I know."
"Ding Min is also a good person. We will make arrangements for his future affairs. You can get along with him happily."
