Chapter 645: The Eve of the Great Storm (1)
When you come to Nanjing, meet the people you should meet and visit them. Zhu Wenkui still needs to temporarily divert his attention.
You have to do a good job.
He didn't just come here and run for Zhu Wenqi alone, but he also brought a research team.
The Nanjing prefect's office was waiting to accompany the research team to carry out work, inspect the local area, and stayed in the guesthouse all day long.
If you really want to do such a passive and lazy thing, just follow Xu Buji's temper. Even if Zhu Wenkui is the eldest prince, Xu Buji can run to the Ganqing Palace and chase Zhu Yunwen to sue him for Zhu Wenkui's lawsuit.
The first stop of the research team was to go to Zhenjiang first.
Zhenjiang is located on the east side of Nanjing, and the two cities are very close, only more than 100 miles away. It was originally under the jurisdiction of Nanzhili. Later, Nanzhili was divided into Jiangsu. After Anhui provinces, Zhenjiang was upgraded to Zhenjiang Prefecture and was under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Provincial Administration and Envoy.
Zhenjiang is close to the estuary of the Yangtze River and is the main city for domestic canal transportation in the Ming Dynasty. Zhenjiang Shipyard has contracted orders for more than 40% of domestic canal transport ships and is also one of the main cities for the export of grain to the north in various provinces in the south of the Yangtze River.
"After passing Danyang to the southeast, there are Changzhou, Suzhou and Shanghai."
On the banks of Jinshan Lake, a group of officials watched the scenery and strolled along the path beside the lake.
The local accompanying officials in Zhenjiang walked beside Zhu Wenkui and introduced everything he saw in front of him: "After passing through Jinshan Lake, external grain transport river, and to the north, the Yangtze River is Zhenjiang Ship Transport Factory."
When it comes to Zhenjiang Shipyard, the official's face became proud, which was his most outstanding political achievement since he took office.
The original Zhenjiang shipyard was divided into two parts. The first factory was only responsible for the construction of domestic canal ships, while the second factory moved to more than 70 miles southeast, specializing in the construction of large sea ships.
The two factories have one branch and each perform their own duties. Zhenjiang Prefecture has set performance reward indicators. The two factories have changed from a family to a competitive relationship. In recent years, they have devoted themselves to production and have become the main revenue pillar of Zhenjiang's local finance.
Zhenjiang has only four counties, which are small prefectures, but relying on this industry, the financial and economic situation not only surpasses Changzhou Prefecture, but now it is close to Suzhou Prefecture, which is a complete dark horse attitude.
"I see Zhenjiang's work and will also be written into the report of this survey. If you turn back to Beijing, you will naturally submit it to the cabinet for reading."
A word of affirmation made the face of the prefect of Zhenjiang smile.
If you have merits, you will be rewarded; if you have mistakes, you will be punished; if you have any mistakes, you will be punished severely.
This is a feature of the Xu family's cabinet.
A provincial governor may be removed from his official title because of a mistake, and a prefect may become a provincial governor because of a meritorious service.
Such personnel appointments for promotion and dethrone are common in the Ming Dynasty officialdom.
In Xu Buji's words, this kind of reward and punishment is to give local officials in various provinces the opportunity to prove their abilities, and it is also a clear warning to local officials.
As long as you do a good job, you will be successful. But as long as you are lazy and make mistakes one day, you will never have to worry about political affairs in your life.
With such a high-pressure political environment, it is inevitable that the local government will criticize the "officials are not busy" while working hard all day long.
"At present, how many workers are there in this Zhenjiang Shipyard."
After visiting the factory, Zhu Wenkui then asked: "How many workers are there in Zhenjiang Prefecture?"
"More than 67,000 people." The prefect knew these data. When he heard Zhu Wenkui's question, he said it: "There are 15,000 people in the shipyard, accounting for nearly 30%. Among the remaining tens of thousands, female workers account for half of them. Most of them are engaged in light industry and textile production, while other male workers are mostly engaged in the production of accessories for construction, metallurgy, steelmaking and heavy industry.
The summary of the tax administration and the Household Administration at the end of last year was the tax administration and the Household Administration Council. Among the main incomes of Zhenjiang’s prefecture and four counties, the proportion of industrial income and output has reached 30% of the entire prefecture. The proportion of traditional industries such as planting, breeding and agricultural and sideline products has dropped from 90% to 50%, and the real estate construction industry accounts for 10%, and the transportation industry and service industry account for the last 10%.
"Yeah."
This achievement made Zhu Wenkui raise his eyebrows and exclaimed: "Containing the proportion of traditional farming to less than 50% has always been one of the main political achievements and goals emphasized by the cabinet, and it is also the focus of the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel's inspections over the past three years. Zhenjiang Prefecture was able to meet the standards last year, which shows that the work has been done in the past two years."
Once again, the prefect's face was as bright as a flower, and he seemed to be able to see that the bright future was not far away.
However, Zhu Wenkui's words were broken at this time, and the prefect's heartbeats several times.
"Although Zhenjiang has done a very good job, there are still things to pay attention to."
Just this sentence made the Zhenjiang Prefecture so scared that he was all over. He couldn't deny the whole result because of a small mistake that he didn't pay attention to, and immediately spoke up.
"But there is something wrong with Zhenjiang. I respectfully listen to your highness's criticism. The subordinates will correct the mistake immediately when they know it."
"The Liu official doesn't have to do this."
Zhu Wenkui patted the latter's shoulder, smiled gently to express his peace of mind, and pointed out in a relaxed tone: "One of them is the problem of production and discharge. After walking around, I found that many factories were directly placed into the Yangtze River in order to save trouble, including this construction waste and waste burning garbage. It is understandable that the cabinet had a warning before, and that His Majesty also had a hasty in the beginning. He could not blindly seek development and sacrifice the ecological environment of this green mountains and clear waters. He had to protect the beautiful scenery left by his ancestors for future generations."
When the prefect Liu Jiang heard that this was the question, he was obviously relieved.
Environmental protection issues are not a principled or directional error. Although the central government emphasizes it, it has not yet reached the point of insisting on it. As long as the error is corrected as soon as possible, it is generally not an assessment content of the official inspection.
"Please let go. Zhenjiang will implement His Highness's instructions as soon as possible and within one month, we will fully correct the problems of emissions and garbage dumping."
After making the guarantee, Liu Jiang looked at Zhu Wenkui again and asked carefully: "If there are other things that have not been done, I hope your highness will give you advice."
“Other place.”
Zhu Wenkui pondered, walked to the lakeside, put his hands on the guardrail, and looked at the lake view: "Then let's introduce it yourself. Do you think there is anything that needs to be corrected if you don't do well?"
This is about being an official voice. Liu Jiangxin said that if I have a clear idea, I still need your instructions. I asked this question because I don’t know.
But the Venerable's words must not be ignored.
Now that I can edit it, Liu Jiang has to edit a wrong place.
But it's just that the mistake of making up is just a knowledge.
Liu Jiang thought for a while before speaking: "Zhenjiang still has great shortcomings in the use and treatment of workers. For this reason, the official representative of Zhenjiang wants to review your highness and the cabinet."
What flag did the research team put forward this time?
This is the industrial development issues and workers' treatment issues in the six provinces in Jiangnan.
There must be no problems with Zhenjiang's industrial development. If Liu Jiang said that there were problems in this regard, he would deny his political achievements, and the only thing that could be wrong was the latter.
The treatment of workers.
If you say that you are not doing well in this regard and then correct yourself, you can say that the previous sentence is to be dedicated and truly think about how to serve the workers.
In this way, the official voice will naturally sound good.
If you make up a mistake and correct it yourself, you can also give your officials a bonus points.
After a few answers, Liu Jiang was stable and could not miss the water.
Zhu Wenkui smiled, but did not look at Liu Jiang, but still looked at the lake: "Since there are shortcomings, we should improve it and test the local government government ability. Whether there is a benign self-correction mechanism is also the main point of the test.
The Liu official was able to examine the mistakes and shortcomings in the work process by himself, which shows that as the head of the government, he has done a very good job in grasping the overall situation."
The flowery sedan chair is carried by people, and the praise from the prince makes Liu Jiang naturally feel happy.
"When talking about the overall situation of this worker problem, we must be very cautious and treat it as the top priority of governance." Zhu Wenkui finally stopped looking at the lake, let go of his hands, and took a step away, and Liu Jiang followed closely behind him.
"One is the importance of the working group itself to national construction and development, and the other is the power of the working group."
Zhu Wenkui sighed: "The number of workers is increasing, and the coverage is getting wider. Most of the workers are bitter and cold people who have never been to school. They are very likely to be exploited and exploited by black-hearted businessmen and factory owners. This kind of thing must be alert. If you find it, you must resolutely investigate and punish more workers to avoid unfair treatment."
"Yes, yes, your highness is very yes." Liu Jiang responded: "We in Zhenjiang have been deeply promoting the social security system for workers in the past two years, and have also conveyed to county-level yamen that the factory owners should be taken seriously and properly handled by the domineering behavior of bullying the weak."
Zhu Wenkui nodded with satisfaction: "This is the best. Local county halls, prefectures, government officials, imperial courts, and cabinets are the only state institutions that workers can rely on to protect their power and interests, and are the only state institutions qualified to exercise their rights of protection. For example, some non-governmental organizations conduct spontaneous grouping to keep warm. We should do a good job in this area."
The circle was so wide that Zhu Wenkui finally said his main purpose, and just this sentence made Liu Jiang startled and then shocked.
"What kind of demonstrations, protests, etc., do you think that hundreds or thousands of people can realize your demands by holding each other?"
Zhu Wenkui frowned and said, "The Association of the People's Republic of China, the Workers' Union, although our Ming Dynasty law has not clearly stipulated whether such organizations are legal, I don't like the behavior after the establishment of these organizations.
If you have any demands, you will always call a large group of people to strike and block the factory. It will affect production and delay national development. This way of solving the demands is not advisable."
At the end, Zhu Wenkui stopped, turned around halfway, and put one hand on Liu Jiang's shoulder.
"The Liu official is in charge of the government and takes overall work. We must grasp the right and wrong of the overall situation and never make stupid political mistakes."
The state and the court are the only legal institutions that protect workers and every Daming citizen. Any spontaneous non-governmental organization, local community-related link organizations and industry-wide warming organizations are unreasonable and even more illegal and should be resolutely banned!
This is the core spirit that Zhu Wenkui wants to convey to Liu Jiang!
Even if Zhu Wenqi does not move for the time being, he must first break down Zhu Wenqi's foundation!
Chapter completed!
