Chapter 314 Controlling Fuzhou Mansion (Five Thousand Chapters)

This time to expand the scale of administrators, Wang Xuan decided to take over the entire Fuzhou city at once, so that except for the docks under the jurisdiction of the government, most of the areas in the city can be under Wang Xuan's control.

It is said that most of them are because there are still some officials and other rich and powerful families in the city, such as those who have Juren in their families, or those who are officials in other places in Ming Dynasty, or there are powerful people from their ancestors, and their families have not declined yet. .

These families and the government constitute the upper management system of the entire place.

In a feudal society, such as the Ming Dynasty, imperial power did not go to the countryside. In a huge Fuzhou magistrate’s yamen, there were only four grades of magistrates, five grades of co-prefects, six grades of general judges, seven grades of promoted officials, eight grades of experience, and nine grades of governors. From Jiupin, seven officials manage.

You must know that there are still many counties under Fuzhou Prefecture that also need to be managed by the prefect.

Other than that, the rest are the six-room scribes.

How can such a small number of people manage such a large mansion?

The way is to "contract", whether it is corvee or taxation, they are all contracted to some big local households.

There is a fixed number of taxes that each place pays each year. If there is a disaster year or the like, it can be reduced. These are directly handed over to the government by the local big households.

Specifically, how the local big households collect taxes does not matter who is more or less. They only look at the amount you pay.

There is no way, just such an official with three melons and two dates, I really can't control it.

Even in the prefecture city, taxation, corvee, and security issues are temporarily recruited to deal with government servants when needed, and they are dismissed afterwards.

However, once Wang Xuan controls the areas in the city except for the big ones, he will 'contract' the remaining matters that the government needs to deal with. In the future, if the government has any needs, just find the people in charge arranged by Wang Xuan, and they will be able to complete them smoothly. work instead of having to spend money and food on a temporary basis to hire people.

No one has done this kind of thing before, because those without status can't do it, and those with status look down on it, it's too low status.

Of course, it is more about lack of money. Even Wang Xuan, if he is not planning to get involved in the ancient "entertainment industry", then doing these things would be thankless.

Apart from getting some insignificant rights, nothing else.

Therefore, after the training of the newly recruited hundred or so people was almost done, Wang Xuan started to contact the other seven head catchers through Dai Butou.

The entire Yamen of Fuzhou Prefecture has eight head arresters, sixteen fast arresters, and 48 government servants. As long as these head arresters are settled, the rest will follow suit.

Wang Xuan didn't entertain these people in his own mansion, but a large yard he recently bought alone. This is used as the residence of the future city administrator's 'company'. In the future, all related matters will be handled here.

It's a corporate operation, this one is very familiar to Daxie Xuan!
This time there were no outsiders, just the eight captors plus Wang Xuan and Tian Boguang.

There is also a reason for calling Tian Boguang here. This guy is good at fighting and killing, but he is almost an idiot when it comes to management and dealing with the government. Wang Xuan wants to give him more knowledge. In the future, he will not manage the sect for Tian Boguang.

"I have seen Master Wang."

"I have seen Master Wang."

A group of headhunters came in, and when they saw Wang Xuan, they clasped their fists and saluted respectfully.

The banquet started, everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, everyone was curious about the purpose of Wang Xuan calling everyone here today, even Dai Butou himself didn't know.

It was almost time to eat and drink, Wang Xuan patted his palms lightly, and a man came in with a tray.

As soon as the red cloth on the tray was lifted, sixteen silver ingots weighing ten taels were neatly arranged inside, and all the targets of the arrest stared sharply, with a flash of greed in their eyes.

Everyone heard that Mr. Wang is rich and powerful, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation.

This tray is 16 big cooking cakes...

I heard that Dai Yutang made a lot of money with Mr. Wang for a month or so. Everyone was envious and jealous. Knowing that Wang Xuan was entertaining guests today, everyone had some guesses. Now it seems that Mr. Wang has something to order.

After finally taking their eyes off the 16 big cooking cakes, everyone looked at Wang Xuan eagerly.

"Everyone may know Zhu Jiayan." Seeing everyone nodding, Wang Xuan continued, "Since my Wang family was attacked last time, I found that the security in Fuzhou City is a little bit poor, and the management is extremely loose, which has led to many nights. Generations have the opportunity to do this kind of thing, and until now we can't find out why."

"I am deeply disturbed and terrified by this. This is not only a huge threat to my Wang family, but also to the people and wealthy families in Fuzhou City."

"So I decided to do my part for Fuzhou City and strengthen the security management, so I did an experiment in the North City. The effect, everyone must have seen, the security in the North City has changed a lot, not to mention that the roads are not picked up and the doors are not closed at night. It is basically impossible to see now. It's time to get into fights and riots and other messy disputes."

"So, this Juren decided to start promoting this management policy in the other three areas of Fuzhou City. Of course, your help and dedication are indispensable for this. Therefore, I have prepared a set of money for everyone. In the future, there will be no headhunters." , you can get 20 taels of silver from me every year as a reward."

"What do you think? If you are willing to help this Juren, please take these 20 taels!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Xuan didn't look at everyone's reaction, and picked up a glass of wine and drank it on his own.

All the headhunters here are tempted!
What is the concept of 20 taels? These headhunters can only receive 2 taels of silver from the government every year, which is not enough to feed the whole family. Of course, their main source of income is some gray income.

When going to court, corvee or tax collection, you can more or less get a share of the profit, but... it’s only about ten taels of silver throughout the year, and it’s basically like this if nothing major happens.

The 20 taels of silver are enough for them to earn a stable income for two years. Although it looks at the meaning, if they receive the 20 taels a year, then they will have to listen to Wang Xuan's orders in the future, and they don't need to think about other gray income, but this is also Very good deal!

Safety, stability and guarantee, earning more, who would not like this!
Dai Butou was the first to stand up and went to the tray to take two ingots back, and solemnly went to Wang Xuan and bowed, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, if you have something to do in the future, feel free to send me."

This means that he will listen to Wang Xuan in the future. After all, after eating Wang Xuan's bowl of rice, he will be considered Wang Xuan's man before Wang Xuan loses power.

As for the Ming court... Hehe, it's almost enough, after all, the difference between two taels of silver and 20 taels of silver is really big, and besides, those big shots have never looked at them directly.

As soon as the other headhunters saw someone taking the lead, they all got up and took away their 20 taels, and bowed in front of Wang Xuan, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, if you have something to do in the future, feel free to send me."

The silver in the tray decreased little by little, and finally there were two unclaimed ingots left.

With a resolute face and a righteous look, Xue Tutou kept changing his expression, and finally stood up with a cruel grit of his teeth.

He didn't go to get the ingot, but bowed respectfully to Wang Xuan, "Small man, it's really inconvenient, that... There is an eighty-year-old mother in the house, and a three-year-old child... Well, I can't ask for this money!"

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Wang, the villain will take my leave first!"

After speaking, he strode out without looking back.

Does this frankly have anything to do with doing things for yourself?
I can't make up the reason, can I...

The other catchers also stared blankly at Xue catcher who was stepping out. This guy is usually well-rounded. What's going on now? It would be nonsense to say that he is upright, don't look at his long face Righteousness, but every time he collects black money, he doesn't lose a penny, and he doesn't know why he is crazy now.

Everyone is a colleague, but they are each responsible for one aspect on weekdays. Although the relationship is good, it is not easy to say anything about this matter.

Xue Butou's departure did not affect everyone's interest. Wang Xuan accompanied everyone to eat and then left. With his presence, these people couldn't let go.

After leaving the courtyard, Tian Boguang asked directly: "Master Wang, this Xue man is so ungrateful, why didn't he chop him off?"

Tian Boguang was ordered by Wang Xuan before, only to watch but not to speak, otherwise when Xue Butou refused just now, he wanted to hack him to death with a knife!
It's the same as choosing a leader or a leader. Everyone agrees that you are the only one who opposes it. I'm sorry, but killing you to sacrifice the flag is a matter of course.

"Cut whatever, you know how to cut people all day long, we are all civilized people!" Wang Xuan replied angrily, "From now on, you will be the master of the sect, so you should be more reserved in your actions."

"Why did he refuse when everyone else agreed? If there is any problem in it, you have to figure it out before you can prescribe the right medicine. Don't be in a hurry."

"Of course, these are not absolute. It mainly depends on the priority of the matter and the comparison of everyone's strength. I am sure that this person surnamed Xue can't find the palm of my hand, so why should I worry?"

A lot of supporting roles think this way, give the protagonist a little bit of experience at the end, the last 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, don't bully the youth...

However, Wang Xuan doesn't think he is a supporting role.

Those surnamed Xue are all over 30 years old, how can there be such an old protagonist...

Xue's arrest did not affect the development of Wang Xuan's follow-up plan. On the second day, he met fourteen arresters and forty government servants. The money Wang Xuan got was higher than their gray income before, and everyone was naturally rejoicing.

What is buying people's hearts?

This is called buying people's hearts!
Double the annual salary and there are still people who can't be recruited?Unless there are special circumstances, such as Xue Tutou...

Now, the Yatou servants under Xue Butou's command were not happy, and the pressure was on Xue Butou's head all at once. If they couldn't benefit his subordinates, it was almost certain that everyone would turn around and leave.

All Wang Xuan's plans were carried out step by step. Except for the area that Xue Tutou was in charge of, all the remaining places had already been inspected by various businesses, and those with a certain scale were on Wang Xuan's fee list.

Of course, Wang Xuan, the property of those rich and powerful families, didn't move, don't worry! !

These merchants in this city are more or less connected. Of course, everyone has heard about the North City. It is impossible not to pay. Looking at the posture of covering the whole city, the government must have opened up. Once those methods are used, they can't escape from other people's Wuzhishan.

Moreover, in the past month, the law and order in Beicheng has indeed improved a lot. I don't know if those rogues have been trained by Wang Xuan or what. Anyway, the small troubles of businesses in Beicheng are much less now.

Besides, a group of guys in uniforms and sticks patrolling back and forth every day, how can the law and order not go up to a higher level!

So this time Wang Xuan's expansion did not bring any resistance, and everyone is still willing to accept management.

……

On the other hand, Xue Tutou was not idle, and the next day he went to find the criminal clerk among the six clerks in the government office.

It is true to say that he is well-rounded and well-connected, and he has a very good relationship with his immediate boss, the clerk of the punishment room.

Catcher Dai invited Ge Yuanliang to his home, and the two drank some wine and began to chat about Wang Xuan's actions.

Sometimes it's not a good thing for this person to be too smart. Xue Butou can see the way from Wang Xuan's every move. Although Wang Xuan doesn't like the profit in it, it doesn't mean that others don't like it.

Xue Butou carefully calculated an account for Wang Xuan. Based on Wang Xuan's current investment in personnel, if the government office is not counted, the annual income of Beicheng alone would not be less than 300 taels!
What kind of concept is this... 30 flour pancakes... Cough cough!
How could someone as smart as Xue Tutou give up the 300 taels to get Wang Xuan's 20 taels of silver!
Send the beggars away!

Of course, he certainly can't occupy such a large area in Beicheng, but there is a market in the area under his control, which is a big gap! !
Xue Butou also knows his disadvantages, he is not Wang Xuan, he does not have the status of juren, but he can pull people!
As long as the scribes in the punishment room can be dealt with, then there will be no resistance from the yamen, and he thinks it is not difficult to find the rogue. Anyway, the people are still those people, and the money comes faster, and everyone is still flocking. From then on He followed suit.

Thinking of the excitement, Xue Butou immediately blushed, "Mr. Ge, you know that Wang Xuan, the new recruit in Beicheng, is the family that Dai Butou went to a while ago."

Ge Yuanliang is an official rather than an official, so he can't be called an adult, and in order to distinguish him from ordinary people, his subordinates respectfully call him Mr.

Ge Yuanliang took a sip from the wine glass and said with a smile, "Of course I know, what's wrong?"

"He's got a bunch of rascals under his command..."

Xue Butou explained Wang Xuan's affairs clearly and clearly. In fact, Ge Yuanliang also knew something, but it was not so detailed.

It's just that he didn't dare to say where Wang Xuan got 20 taels of silver from other headhunters, and he couldn't offend all his colleagues.

"Then what do you mean?" Ge Yuanliang looked at Xue Butou thoughtfully.

"You know, there happens to be a market over there, and I can't handle this 'business' by myself, so please ask Mr. Ge to help out, and the monthly profit will be divided into [-] and [-], how about it?"

Ge Yuanliang thought about it for a while and then agreed. If he had the money, he would have nothing to lose. Anyway, he didn't need to operate it, so why not do it!
Xue Butou is generous, and he is right in the middle when he speaks directly. In fact, it must not be so much. However, part of the money spent is tied to the clerk of the punishment room, which allows him to be under one person in the entire punishment room. , the others are superior, which will benefit the future a lot.

……

Wang Xuan has been watching Xue Butou's actions all the time, and understands the other party's plan, so he just sneered at it.

Society is so messy?

Then anyone can come up to be a boss!

It's just right this time, borrow Xue Tutou, the monkey, to scare the other chickens!
Wang Xuan quietly controlled most of Fuzhou's prefectural city, and there was no fireworks in the middle, except that there were many dark blue gowns in many places in the city, with whistle sticks in their hands, walking in neat steps. Team members occasionally patrolled by, and nothing else happened.

And Xue Tutou is in a lot of trouble...

There are a lot of rascals, most of them are crooked melons and dates that Wang Xuan picked up in other places in the city, and they can't get along in other places in the city, so almost all of them are concentrated on Xue Tutou's side.

This time, the number of people has exceeded the standard. If all these people are absorbed, then his surname Xue will be waiting to lose money!
There was no way, competition was selected, and within a few days, more than a dozen were arrested just for fighting, and this was considered to have calmed down a little.

The remaining [-] men were selected, and there was really no less. These rascals didn't dare to make trouble even though they were kicked out by Wang Xuan's side, it was because Wang Xuan's men were fierce enough!

The corpses of the few guys who dared to provoke at the beginning were thrown into nowhere. Anyway, they just disappeared so quietly, neither alive nor dead.

I don't even know how the person disappeared. After three times, these rascals are scared to speak loudly anymore. As for reporting to the official?Not to mention whether there is anyone from Wang Xuan in the yamen, there is not even a corpse, what a fart, at most it is a lost population, who cares about this in ancient times!

But it's different when it comes to Xue Tutou, hehe, at most you can catch him and beat him up, who the hell isn't a hob meat!

Come, come, say hello here...

What's wrong with the headhunting, so many people are watching this matter, how dare you kill me!
Therefore, Xue Tutou had no choice but to recruit more people.

After the candidates are selected, the proportion of the share has become a problem. Now everyone knows how this system needs to be run. You Xue Butou is the initiator, so it doesn’t matter if you take the big one. You should also send money to the yamen, but we are serious and working on the front line You can't give too little to live!

Who doesn't have an eighty-year-old mother at home...

The discussion went on and on, and Xue Butou finally calculated, fuck, the cost is too high... Come on, the merchants in the jurisdiction need to increase the payment, he is not Wang Dashan, he only charges merchants above a certain scale for security As for the fee, he didn't mean to let go of those small traders!
As a result, it ran into big trouble when it first opened!
