Chapter 420 Promoted Two Levels
After meeting the Shen family's steward by chance, Gao Pan was not in the mood to go shopping anymore, but it was hard to dampen Ning Yan's interest and let them go shopping by themselves.

But Ning Yan naturally put Gao Pan first in everything, seeing that Gao Pan didn't want to go shopping anymore, she obediently followed Gao Pan back to the county office.

Not to mention Luo Ying, who has always regarded herself as a maid, seeing that Gao Pan and Ning Yan have returned to the county government, she will not go shopping alone anymore.

And she could see that Gao Pan's expression was very bad, as if something had happened, he followed behind the two of them, hesitating to speak.

...

As soon as he returned to the county government office, Gao Pan met Xie Yujun, who was going to collect the summer grain, and the chief bookkeeper of the county government office. Seeing Xie Yujun's happy face, Gao Pan knew that there must be some good news, so he asked Ning Yan to take Luo Ying back to the backyard first. He came to his government office.

"Master Gao, I have finally collected all the summer grain. According to preliminary statistics, there are at least 8000 shi of grain, plus [-] taels of tax silver!"

Xie Yujun followed Gao Pan and told the approximate amount of summer food this time.

After Gao Pan heard it, he was overjoyed and asked quickly:

"Is this number real? If it is true, then it will be a bumper harvest!"

Xie Yujun found it with a grin, looked at the master beside him and said:

"Master Bo personally did this. If you don't believe me, ask him."

The owner of the Dantang county government, Bo, has a very low sense of existence. If he was not required to be present because of the summer grain collection, I am afraid that Gao Pan would have forgotten him.

After hearing Xie Yujun talk about himself, the master quickly and respectfully told Gao Pan the approximate number, which was the same as what Xie Yujun said, but in more detail.

After listening to Gao Pan, he was very satisfied. He waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, you two adults have worked hard. Since the summer grain harvest is over, let's put it in the warehouse and count it. If this is really a good harvest, I will personally recommend you for promotion!"

After hearing this, Xie Yujun was better, but the chief secretary bowed excitedly to Gao Pan. Although the master Bo was considered an official official, it was extremely difficult to get promoted.

Gao Pan said a few more words on the occasion, and left the master to leave Xie Yujun alone.

"Brother Yujun, I may have to go back to Beijing after the summer grain is handed over to the court. The affairs of the county government will be in your hands. The New Deal has just begun, so don't be careless."

After Xie Yujun heard this, there was a bit of resentment in his eyes:
"Understood, this time you return to Beijing, I am afraid that you will also be promoted? Otherwise, why do you say that you want me to be promoted?"

Seeing this, Gao Pan smiled wryly and explained:
"How can there be such a good thing, it's just going back to Beijing to fulfill my promise, as to whether I will be promoted, it's hard to say now, but no matter what, Dantang County is in your hands, don't let me down .”

Xie Yujun didn't like hearing these words, he didn't feel happy at all, instead he felt an indescribable sense of worry and uneasiness.

He agreed to come out with Gao Pan, naturally in order to find a way, but after he came to Dongshan, he realized how difficult this road is.

If it wasn't for Gao Pan, he might have been killed by the rebels as soon as he came to Dantang County, and Gao Pan brought him what he is today.

It stands to reason that he should be grateful to Gao Pan, but at this moment when he heard that Gao Pan was going to give up his position and hand over this important task to him, he didn't feel any joy in his heart.

Gao Pan saw that Xie Yujun was worrying about gains and losses at the moment, walked up to Xie Yujun, patted him on the shoulder, and softly comforted him:

"Brother-in-law, you can't always be behind me. You have to be alone to go further. By the way, I will let Gao Ming stay and cooperate with you. When you don't need him, just let him go." gone."

Hearing that Gao Pan called himself brother-in-law for the first time, Xie Yujun looked at Gao Pan in disbelief, then swallowed, and said in a daze:
"Brother Pan, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I, Xie Yujun, might still be just an idle young master in the capital. Don't worry, after you leave, Dantang County will still be like this, and all your government orders will be preserved."

Seeing that Xie Yujun finally woke up, Gao Pan smiled, patted him on the shoulder again, and calmly reminded:
"That's fine, but, still the same sentence, you must remember 'it's hard to be confused', at least ensure that the people under you can have something to eat."

After finishing speaking, Gao Pan didn't say any more, and returned to his seat, reviewing the documents above.

Seeing this, Xie Yujun was stunned for a long time, and it took a while to come back to his senses, his eyes flickering at Gao Pan who was seriously reviewing the documents at this moment.

Thinking in his heart, Gao Pan said that he would hand over the big responsibility to him, but now he is still clinging to the power. I am afraid that he intends to make the delivery before leaving?
……

In the 16th year of Tianfeng, in mid-July, the only county in Dongshan Province paid summer grain, and the rest of the prefectures and counties, not to mention paying taxes, even rations were allocated by the imperial court.

Under the witness of the food supervisor, 8000 shi of grain, plus more than [-] taels of tax money, were handed over from the county government warehouse.

A few days later, the documents from the imperial court arrived. Because of his meritorious service in Baodantang County and the No. 1 implementation of the New Deal, Gao Pan was promoted to the head of the Ministry of Household Affairs Dongshan Qingli Department with the approval of Emperor Tianfeng. He set off to report to the Ministry of Officials today. .

Xie Yujun, Deng Wenshan and other county magistrates and assistant officials were all promoted. Xie Yujun just crossed the hurdle of the eight ranks and became the official county lord.

Deng Wenshan was directly promoted from Jiupin Dianshi to Zhengbapin County Yaxian County Magistrate, directly promoted to the third level, and envied others, but the officials in Dantang County knew that Deng Wenshan was the first to take refuge in Gao Pan.

Many officials regretted it a little. If they knew this, they should have approached Gao Pan earlier. Otherwise, they would have their share in this collective promotion.

And the other master was promoted to the county magistrate in the next county, and he was promoted to two levels in a row, so he was very happy.

As for Gao Pan, he was promoted two levels in a row, jumping from the seventh rank to the sixth rank, crossing the hurdle from the sixth rank, and Gao Pan did not come from a serious major. This promotion naturally aroused the envy of many people.

The promotion of local county magistrates is usually inspected at the end of the year. Once the three-year term is up, only magistrates who are superior every year can be promoted.

Even so, they are generally promoted to Tongzhi of the local prefectures from the sixth rank, and those who return to Beijing are mostly from Guanglu Temple, and those from Taichang Temple are from the sixth rank department.

For Gao Pan's extraordinary promotion, many people in the court were very dissatisfied, especially the old party faction, even hastily wrote a letter, accusing Gao Pan's promotion of being against court rules.

However, when the old party makes moves, the new party will naturally refute it. The new party headed by Dong Pingzhang has made Gao Pan's impressive achievements in the past year.

Especially when Dongshan as a whole is in turmoil this year, it is really rare for Gao Pan, as the county magistrate, to be able to keep one side safe.

In addition, the summer grain collection this time was more than double that of previous years. Members of the New Party believed that the promotion and promotion did not break the rules of the court.
