Chapter 369 The power of Beijing Kaixing
In the back house of the Shuntian Prefecture, this is where Hu Zongxian resides as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, and it is also his place of residence in the capital.
Hu Zongxian had just sat down after a busy day, and his old servant Huan also brought over the hot water he had just made, "Master, it's time to cleanse the noodles."
Hu Zongxian hummed. , rubbed his hands twice in the basin, and then picked up the soap on the side and rubbed it into foam. The use of this kind of soap was also a habit he only developed after he became the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture.
When he took office in the previous local government, although Hu Zongxian also heard that a new thing called soap was produced in the capital, and the price was high or low, but when this rare thing came to the local area, then It became a hot commodity.
Therefore, even when he was serving as the imperial censor in Huguang at that time, he only heard about it but never used it.
Now that I have become the governor of Shuntian, this kind of soap has almost become the standard for high-ranking officials and ordinary people in the capital. The high-ranking officials use high-end soap with a woody or floral scent, and ordinary people use it. I use cheap soap that just foams.
So, as the head of the family, Hu Zongxian naturally used this elegant soap with a special woody fragrance. Hu Zongxian washed his hands and face at the same time, leaving his hands and face refreshed. After washing, Juan handed over another towel.
Hu Zongxian took the towel and wiped off the water stains on his face. Feeling the fresh and oil-free feeling on his face, Hu Zongxian also felt quite comfortable.
Hu Zongxian said: "This Shunyi Industrial Park is really amazing. It can actually think of such a strange thing."
Juan worriedly said: "Master, since you also know that Shunyi Industrial Park is powerful, why are you still fighting? What if you piss off the people behind you?"
Hu Zongxian looked at his loyal servant. Worried, he also chuckled, "Don't worry, Juan, the people behind Shunyi Industrial Park will not pay attention to me. This time Zhang Juzheng is planning to build a new patrol police, and it cannot be without the participation of our Shuntian Mansion. Otherwise, the new year will really be over. , the common people in the capital may only recognize the patrol police for handling cases, but not the Shuntian Mansion."
Huan sighed: "Even if the master does not recognize the Shuntian Mansion after a few years, there is a high probability that the master will not recognize the Shuntian Mansion at that time. If you don’t take up the post in Shuntian Mansion, why bother with Master Zhang? He is Prince Yu’s assistant. In the future, if Prince Yu really takes over the throne, Master Zhang will also be in a position of great authority.”
Hu Zongxian continued to smile and said: "I know this, but it is my responsibility to benefit one party during my term of office. I cannot let this happen during my term. Moreover, Shuntian Prefecture has the responsibility of patrolling the capital for public security. Although the Capital Special Administrative Region is a new district jointly established by His Majesty and the imperial court, in the final analysis, the Special Administrative Region still belongs to the Shuntian Prefecture. Therefore, I cannot just watch the Shuntian Prefecture lose the initiative in this matter."
As for the Capital Special Administrative Region. Hu Zongxian also sees the current status and development of the special zone and is anxious in his heart.
He knew very well that if the Jingshi Special Administrative Region continued to develop in this way, then the future Jingshi Special Administrative Region would definitely become an administrative entity that could surpass Shuntian Prefecture.
At that time, he, the Shuntian Prefecture Yin, will be dispensable.
After all, if the dignitaries in the inner city really committed something, Shuntian Prefecture would not just take it or investigate it as they please.
Therefore, in order to demonstrate the authority of Shuntian Prefecture, it is still necessary to have jurisdiction over the outer city of the capital.
So, whether it was for his own consideration or for the future status of Shuntian Mansion, Hu Zongxian had to fight for it.
Then also take a look at the reactions of all parties to this matter.
As the governor of Shuntian Prefecture for more than a year, Hu Zongxian has always had a lot of melancholy.
Originally, Hu Zongxian planned to use Zhao Wenhua to gain the support of the strict party, thereby skipping the pitfall of an official career such as chief envoy. In the end, he was recommended by Xu Jie as the governor of Shuntian Prefecture. Although Shuntian Fuyin is also considered a local official, local officials also have to look at the attributes of the place.
For example, Shuntian Prefecture, where the capital is located, is different. First of all, the grade of the prefect here is the third grade, and it is also awarded the silver seal. Even if there is another promotion and appointment later, it can be If you rise rapidly, you can either enter the Sixth Ministry and hold the important position of minister, or directly take up the official position in the yamen such as Taichang Temple in Dali Temple. Even if it is not good, you can also go to the Sixth Ministry in Nanjing for two years.
Therefore, there is still an essential difference between this local official and a local official.
But if Hu Zongxian was transparent during his tenure in Shuntian Mansion, then when he is about to be transferred and leaves Shuntian Mansion, who will remember him?
So no matter what his thoughts were, Hu Zongxian must seize this opportunity to discuss the issue of the new patrol police with Zhang Juzheng.
Even if he failed to achieve his wish in the end, at least in the eyes of some conservative officials in the capital, Hu Zongxian is also an official who is not afraid of trouble, and maybe it will bring him new opportunities.
Huan also knew his master's heart, but he was worried that his master might offend his future ministers because of this matter.
After all, everyone can see now that it is so important for Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng to endure. It is most likely because they are the husbands of Prince Yu. In order to train the team around Prince Yu, His Majesty the Emperor will give Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng special care. Convenience allows them to get more opportunities and experience.
In the past year or so, the Jingshi Special Economic Zone has done a great job, and the Jingshi Special Zone Development Bank has been even more powerful than imagined. Not only has it become the largest bank in the capital in just one year, but it is also slowly growing. Slowly take over the yamen's business.
You must know that in the past, even the largest banks were unable to participate in the affairs of the Yamen.
But the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank did it.
Now, no matter whether they are large or small government officials and employees in the yamen of the Jingshi Special Administrative Region or those in Shuntian Prefecture, as long as they are not directly managed by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, their salaries and wages are already distributed by the Jingshi Special Administrative Region Development Bank.
Moreover, this efficiency is very high. There is no need to have a group of people queuing up at the Yamen accounting room as soon as the pay day comes.
Now they only need to take the time to check their registered accounts at the counter of the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank at any time, and they can check their salary slips, and they can also withdraw cash at any time.
However, there are not many people who do this, because everyone knows that when doing business in the Beijing Special Administrative Region, small amounts are made with anonymous Beijing Development Bank banknotes, and large amounts are transferred directly from Beijing Development Bank's accounts. .
Moreover, the salaries of these government officials and employees are not very high, but they all have a dedicated account, and this dedicated account can also calculate deposit interest for their salaries.
Therefore, many government officials and employees, as long as there is no special nervousness, would rather leave their salary in the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank to earn interest, rather than take the initiative to transfer all their money. Take them all out.
Because they also know that even if they withdraw it, in order to facilitate their life in the capital, they still have to exchange it for small-denomination Beijing Development Bank banknotes. This is not only troublesome, but will also damage their original interest. .
So, today’s government officials and employees are better at settling accounts than ordinary people. Their ability to accept new things is much better than ordinary people, and they are also better than some superior men who don’t worry about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. Be able to recognize the benefits of the Beijing Special Economic Zone Development Bank.
