Chapter 455 The handsome secretary who can't afford a house
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the four official data test papers finally started to be shipped.

He gave all the answers to the four integral questions involved in the test paper. For a while, the study of calculus became a hot topic among the literati of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the respect for Shuai Jicheng, an old scholar, reached a new height. .

This time the emperor gave the director of the Audit Department the third rank.

There is a basis for this determination.Since the Audit Department is a brand-new review agency that is completely independent from the Sixth Ministry and the Three Law Departments, it is very reasonable for the director of the Audit Department to be at the same level as Dali Siqing.

A poor old scholar suddenly turned into a third-rank official of the imperial court. This is tantamount to detonating a nuclear bomb in the officialdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and even the entire circle of scholars in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although it is true that many conservative elders and emperors yelled absurdly this time, it more aroused the pride of "I am born to be useful" among all scholars.

Think about the first half of Mr. Shuai's disliked life!

Think about the current scenery of people!
The emperor also specially sent two Jinyi guards to lead a 20-member Jinyi guard team to Qing County, Hejian Prefecture to welcome the family of Chief Shuai into Beijing, and by the way, publicize this important event in Shuai Jicheng's hometown.

The current prefect of Hejian Prefecture and the magistrate of Qing County went ten miles out of the city to welcome the arrival of the two guards in Jinyi.

Shuai Jicheng's family was also brought home by the magistrate, cleaned up, made new clothes, and gave Cheng Yi worth 100 taels of silver.

It's not that I don't want to give more, but I'm afraid that if I give too much, I will be checked by the new commander.

Everyone knows what the audit department does. Are there any officials who are clean these days?Check who is unlucky.

Fortunately, the current new emperor doesn't like to beheaded. As long as he pays the atonement money, he will keep a dog's life, but the problem is that the punishment of not allowing scientific research for the next three generations is really terrible!Three generations are not allowed to conduct scientific research, which is tantamount to cutting off the possibility of the family's continued development.

This series of capricious actions by the new emperor, on the one hand, aroused the enthusiasm of scholars for getting ahead, and on the other hand, they made people fear and fear.

In the past, everyone couldn't understand it, thinking that the new emperor who was born as a military general would only toss for three years, and later he would understand that when he couldn't make any splashes, he would stop and let everything go back to the old way. go up.

But looking back now, the real emperor has made a splash in two years.

The emperor's thinking is also clear. If the replacement of the old department can't solve the problem, then establish a new department and abolish the old department.

So the Six Nanjing Divisions were abolished.

So there was an extra Royal Bank, so there was an extra audit department.

Now that the audit department has been established, the next step is probably to reduce the non-personnel inspectorate.

The censors of the Inspectorate were so anxious that they cast their eyes on His Royal Highness the First Prince!
If there is anyone in this world who can persuade the emperor, it is probably only His Royal Highness.

Song Qingyue also received a lot of invitations here, but she would not get involved in this kind of thing, and Li Zhao also temporarily declined the invitation from the adults, because there was indeed news of a drought in Shanxi, and although some areas in Zhili were dry. There is no harvest, but there is also the problem of water shortage, and the grain production has decreased by more than 50.00%.

The most important thing now is to find out which areas have been affected by the disaster and to what extent, which areas can survive only tax exemption, and which areas not only need tax exemption, but also need to distribute disaster relief food and organize work relief.

Zhang Guangjian, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Yu Weiliang, Deputy Commander of Jinyiwei, and Wei Yachuan and Kang Rumao, two servants of the Ministry of Household Affairs, were all sent to find out the situation in person.

Li Zhao was not idle either. He was the final gatekeeper for disaster relief, so he also went on a business trip to Shanxi.

Fu Chengfeng and Song Chenxu took more than 2 firearms battalion soldiers, rifled guns, and ordinary smoothbore iron guns to the north to defend against the Tartars.

It is said that as soon as they arrived in Chahar, a small-scale battle broke out with the new Khan of the Tartars.

It was a crushing victory, and a small battle broke the guts of the Tatar nobles.

The saying "everything is true within range" is no joke.

Next, they will stay in the north until the snow falls before returning to the capital.

As for the capital, except for some government personnel who got the "news" and felt the pressure from the northern barbarians, the common people basically didn't know about it.

Didn't the First Prince say when he made meritorious service before that that battle would guarantee peace for at least five years? It's not been five years yet, so how could the Tartars have evil thoughts again?

Everyone is still more concerned about the whereabouts of those who won the math competition.

Of course, the most discussed one is still Shuai Jicheng, Director of the Audit Department.

The theater troupe even arranged a play for Director Shuai.

In the middle, the handsome old scholar turned into a handsome handsome man, and arranged for him to have a romantic relationship with the county magistrate's lady, but he was brutally beaten by the short, fat, corrupt and oppressive county magistrate. The drama of mandarin ducks.

Who doesn't like to read this kind of cool script that you can't afford to look down on me today, and I can't afford to look up to you tomorrow!

Emperor Li Da was a person who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and even invited the theater troupe who wrote the script to sing in the palace.

Hearing that my family was lucky enough to go to the palace to sing for the emperor, the whole troupe almost went crazy.

The team who wrote the script worked overtime and added a bunch of clips praising the emperor.

After the emperor listened to the play, he felt dissatisfied and asked them to include in the script the matter of the former Shuai Ji Cheng's uneven distribution of labor for road construction, and the fact that he did not hesitate to offend the magistrate and county magistrate to argue for reason.

In addition to Shuai Jicheng, how Lu Laocifu dealt with this matter uprightly at the beginning, how he was suppressed afterwards, and how the new emperor promoted and appointed these "Masters of Qingtian" regardless of obstruction, must be fully understood. write it in!

Praise be specific!
Can't be empty!

The team leader who wrote the script also entered the palace only to find out that Director Shuai had such an unknown past in the past?
Immediately, the inspiration burst out, and the county magistrate and the magistrate at that time were written as two heinous villains, which made the novel even more enjoyable.

With the support of the emperor, this new play unexpectedly became one of the most popular plays in the capital and even in the entire Zhili area.

As for the two county magistrates and magistrates who suppressed Shuai Jicheng in the past, they were also miserable. Their names were dug up by someone with a heart, and they wrote a letter of impeachment to the emperor.

Twenty years have passed, and the county magistrate of Qing County has now become the general judge of Runing Prefecture in Henan Province.

As for the prefect of Hejian Mansion, his official career did not go well, and he is still working as a prefect, but he went to Huguang and became the prefect of Wuchang Mansion. After all, he is a prefecture that is bigger than Hejian Mansion.

If there is any particularly serious fault with these two, then there really isn't one.

Because the officialdom is like this, there are constraints from all sides, and there are its own rules. If you want to climb up, you have to abide by this set of rules.

But to say that they have done nothing wrong, that they have not abused their power to oppress the people, that is not clear.

In the end, in order to give the drama with propaganda purposes a more dramatic and perfect ending, the emperor ordered the dismissal of the two adults.

As for the other heavyweight involved in the road construction incident—the prefect of Zhending Prefecture, he escaped with great care.

Speaking of which, the two dismissed are the cannon fodder of the times.

Song Qingyue was also invited by the emperor to watch a play in the palace. As long as she understood the dialogue, it would be really interesting, let alone.

The team leader who wrote the script has two brushes!

With the help of the drama, Shuai Jicheng's reputation reached a new peak.

This old scholar who is over the age of has suddenly become the benchmark of the times and new trends of thought!
Those who insist on not studying mathematics, or those who can't understand it, naturally don't understand why it is so exciting to be able to solve the integral problem; but those who understand the mystery of it all pay homage to Shuai Jicheng.

There are even rumors that the handsome Ji Cheng is Lord Grim.

As a result, Shuai Jicheng received a lot of invitations from his colleagues.

But he didn't have time to attend any of them, because Chief Shuai's top priority recently was to find an official residence in the capital where he could live.

It's not easy, the land price in the capital is too damn expensive!

In fact, Shuai Jicheng is not penniless now, he won the first prize in the math competition, the emperor gave a bonus of 600 taels of silver, and His Royal Highness Jin Wang gave a bonus of 500 taels of silver, adding up to 100 taels of silver.

It doesn't mean that 1000 taels of silver can't buy a place to live, but an official must have the style of an official, not to mention that the emperor's grade for the head of the audit department is the third grade!

He is at the same level as Dali Siqing, the inspector, the left and right deputy capital censors, this is a high official!
No kidding, super officer!
How decent is it for you to let a dignified third-rank official live in a corner of the capital, and there is only a cramped courtyard?
However, an official residence that meets the requirements cannot be taken down without tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Looking for a bank loan, does the bank dare to borrow?

The chief executive of a censorship agency has a large mortgage on his back before he officially begins his work. Would the emperor still dare to use him?

So the newly appointed handsome man chose the "pianfang" as the next best thing.

The so-called "classic house" is somewhat similar to renting a house, but it is much more cost-effective than renting a house.

That is, the pawnbroker takes out a large sum of money at one time and gives it to the homeowner to obtain the right to use the house for about 15 to years. After the expiration, the pawnbroker returns the house to the homeowner, and the homeowner The pawn money shall be returned to the pawnbroker in full.

Speaking of which, there are not a few officials who live in the Dianfang in the capital, especially in the two years since the new emperor came to power, a lot of officials have been demoted.

When the family is in a hurry to raise money to pay the ransom, they will choose to mortgage their mansion or villa in the capital.

And those newly promoted officials, whose families are not rich enough to buy a decent mansion, and don't want the appearance to be too shabby, will choose to lease the mansions of those criminal officials.

To put it bluntly, the lease model of the pawnshop is a transaction model in which the pawnbroker provides a one-time large interest-free loan to the homeowner to obtain the right to use the house for more than ten years.

Of course, if the homeowner is unable to repay the full amount of the pledged house money after the expiration date, the ownership of the house will be calculated separately, and the terms of each contract are different.

But basically, the mortgage amount is 50.00% to 80.00% of the normal house price.

In other words, if Shuai Jicheng wanted to purchase an official residence that fit his status as a third-rank official, at least he would have to spend about 4 to taels of Wenyin.

This number is not a big problem for most officials in the court who can sit in the position of third-rank officials.

But the key is that Shuai Ji Cheng was originally a poor scholar with a bit crooked talent!

Where can he have 3 taels of silver?

Excluding the bonuses he got from the Emperor and Prince Jin's Mansion this time, he couldn't make up even copper coins!

As a result, it has been more than two months since Mr. Shuai took office as a new official, and his mother in Qing County and Mr. Shuai’s wife and children were also sent to the capital by Jin Yiwei with drums and gongs. In a cramped courtyard!
 There is another chapter tonight~
  Speaking of which, I happened to see an article about Su Zhe renting a house a while ago, and I laughed to death.Su Zhe has become a prime minister, but he can only rent a house pitifully, which shows how crazy the housing prices in Kaifeng were during the Northern Song Dynasty.In fact, there seemed to be pawned houses in the Northern Song Dynasty, but the pawned houses can only be pawned to very ordinary civilian houses. Usually, when the money is needed urgently, the homeowner will choose to pawn.A good house with exquisite decoration, good location and large enough area can basically only be rented, and it is not available at all.In the Ming Dynasty, housing prices in big cities and towns were getting higher and higher, not to mention the capital city.Since ancient times, high housing prices have been a problem for everyone~
