Chapter 59: Three things to do when taking office
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone into the house, and the rooster crowed as if a beat late.
Yuan Ying stretched out on the bed, rubbing his sleepy eyes. He sat cross-legged on the rosewood bed, with golden silk bed curtains hanging on the finely carved sandalwood bed frame. The tassels danced lightly in the wind, as if in a dream.
The carvings at the head and foot of the bed are exquisite, and the delicate lines outline various flowers, birds, fish and insects vividly.
She looked around the room and found everything there was unfamiliar.
She stood up, drew aside the bed curtain, hooked it on the curtain, got out of bed, walked to the rosewood dressing table and sat down.
She tied her hair up casually with a rubber band in front of the bronze mirror.
"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door
"Sir, are you awake?" A clear, unfamiliar voice.
Yuan Ying was stunned for a moment. Then she remembered that it must be a new maid. She stood up and opened the door.
Hongxiu entered the room, followed by two little maids carrying washbasins. They looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, but they looked calm and composed.
"Sir, let us help you wash and change your clothes." Hongxiu came over with her people to pay her respects, with a respectful and appropriate smile on her face.
The servants selected from the palace have all undergone special training.
Yuan Ying pressed his forehead and said, "I don't need any service. Call Wan Qiu to me."
After a while, Wan Qiu ran over, panting, "Hey, I'm sorry, sir, I'm late. I'm in charge of things in the academy with Nanny He Yuxi."
"Well, study hard. From now on, the Yuan Mansion will be handed over to you, and you have to keep it in order for me." Yuan Ying said with a smile.
"Also, I don't need anyone to serve in my room anymore. You can arrange other things for them."
Wanqiu sent them away, then picked up the comb and combed Yuan Ying's hair while saying:
"Young Master is also an important official appointed by the Emperor. How can he not have someone to serve him? From now on, I will help him wash up first, and then I will go to study with Nanny."
In a short while, he helped Yuan Ying comb her hair so that it was neat and tidy.
She changed into a set of cycling clothes and did some physical exercise in the yard for half an hour. She felt great after sweating profusely.
Wanqiu quickly handed over a towel, and Yuan Ying washed his face and went to the front hall.
There was an exquisite breakfast on the table, including steaming buns, crispy fried dough sticks, sweet rice porridge, and a variety of exquisite side dishes and snacks.
Looking at the seven large bowls and eight large dishes on the table, Yuan Ying sighed and said to Wan Qiu:
"Wanqiu, don't have seven or eight large dishes for breakfast, it's too wasteful. From now on, just have three dishes and one soup for three meals a day."
Wan Qiu smiled slightly and responded, "Sir, this is what the prince specifically instructed so that you can eat happily and have a more balanced nutrition."
Yuan Ying said calmly: "You don't have to listen to him in the future. We can make our own decisions in our own house."
Seeing Wanqiu hesitate to speak, Yuan Ying said earnestly: "Wanqiu, in this world, there are still many people who are hungry and poorly clothed.
We should cherish what we have and help those in need as much as possible.”
"I know, sir!" Her sir was really a loving person. She didn't know who would be so lucky to marry someone like him in the future. Thinking of this, Wan Qiu's face turned red.
After breakfast, Yuan Ying came to the study and thought quietly about what to do about the position of Minister of Revenue.
The Minister of Finance is the Minister of Finance in modern times. He is mainly responsible for the planning, budgeting and supervision of national finances, formulating tax policies, managing national fiscal revenue and expenditure, and ensuring the stable development of the national economy.
She knew that in order to be qualified for this position, she must first be familiar with Daxia's financial system and economic situation, and understand knowledge about taxation, fiscal expenditure, currency circulation, etc.
Only by having a deep understanding of these can we formulate reasonable fiscal policies and ensure the stability and development of the court's finances.
After thinking for a while, she took her quill pen and went out, coming to Prince Jing's Mansion. Murong Xuanyi was discussing matters with several confidants at this time.
He was a little surprised to see Yuan Ying coming over: "Xiaoying, why are you here?" He originally wanted to wait until he finished the matters at hand before going to see her.
Yuan Ying explained his intention. Murong Xuanyi dismissed several of his confidants and asked Yuan Ying to enter his study. He took out the "Daxia Tax Law", "Golden Cloth Law", "Financial Revenue and Expenditure System", "Records of the Ministry of Revenue"...
Yuan Ying sat in front of Murong Xuanyi's desk, reading a book quietly. Murong Xuanyi did not disturb him and sat beside him, flipping through the book.
Two hours later, she took out her quill pen and sat at the table to draft a "Guide to the Affairs of the Minister of Revenue". No matter what position she was in, she would do her best and go all out.
Rested at home for a day.
The next day, Yuan Ying arrived at the Ministry of Revenue early. She was dressed in gorgeous official uniform and walked steadily to the high platform. Her face was serious and her eyes were bright, revealing a kind of majesty and confidence. The officials below the stage were waiting for her speech respectfully.
She said calmly:
“My dear colleagues, I feel honored and responsible to be here today. I am grateful to the Emperor for his great grace and trust in me, and I am able to serve as the Minister of Finance.
The Ministry of Revenue is the foundation of the country's finances. It concerns the national economy and people's livelihood, and its responsibilities are extremely important.
I know that I have a heavy burden on my shoulders, but I am full of confidence and determination, and I vow to do my best to live up to the trust placed in me."
“In the days ahead, I will act with fairness and integrity.
We are committed to optimizing financial management, improving the efficiency of fund use, ensuring that every penny is spent wisely, and contributing to the prosperity and strength of the country.
At the same time, I will actively listen to the opinions and suggestions of my colleagues, pool our wisdom, jointly meet challenges, and push the work of the Ministry of Households to a new level. "
“I believe that as long as we work together and unite as one, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome and no goals that cannot be achieved.
Let us work together in the future and strive hard for a better tomorrow for Daxia!"
Her voice was loud and powerful, echoing through the hall.
The first thing she did when she took office was to summon all the officials of the Ministry of Revenue and gave a short but powerful speech.
However, not all the officials in the hall were convinced. Some officials looked disdainful and whispered to each other.
Several officials questioned the ability of the young new minister. Among them, the Minister of Revenue, Lord Chen, who was about fifty years old, even sneered.
He expressed his opinion without disguising it: "Humph, so young, what real ability can you have? You are only able to sit in this position because of the relationship with Prince Jing."
Another old official also echoed, "Yes, the Ministry of Revenue has complicated affairs that are related to the lifeblood of the country. How can a young boy be competent in this matter?"
Although their voices were not loud, they were clearly heard by Yuan Ying.
This remark resonated with the other officials, who nodded in agreement. For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall became somewhat tense.
Yuan Ying was not shaken by these doubts and laughed softly: "My Lords, you are so dismissive of me. Do you think I am too young to be qualified for the position of Minister of Revenue?"
Her straightforward tone revealed a kind of confidence and determination, as if telling everyone that she didn't care about their opinions.
"Or do you think the emperor is not careful in employing people?"
Yuan Ying continued, her eyes flashing with a sharp light that made people dare not look directly at her.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, as if suggesting to everyone that their doubts were meaningless.
The officials were speechless. How could they dare to question the emperor?
"Ambition does not depend on age. Your age and experience are certainly important. But times are changing, and the Ministry of Revenue must keep pace with the times.
Although I am young, I have new ideas and methods, and I can bring new changes to Daxia's finances. Why don't you wait and see? "
"The road ahead is long, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, please speak it out here today.
After dealing with your doubts, I hope everyone will devote themselves to their respective missions. "
Her voice suddenly became serious, and her eyes swept over everyone present. There was a kind of majesty in her words that moved people.
Damn it, you want to show her your power on your first day in office. She doesn't care who you are, she'll just do it if she doesn't like you.
A new official has three things to do when he takes office. Yuan Ying made three things on his first day in office, showing extraordinary determination and execution.
At the first volley, she called all the officials together and gave them a serious lecture. Her words were so powerful that everyone present could feel her majesty and determination.
Then, she started the second fire. She personally checked the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue and found some problems and loopholes.
She immediately ordered a comprehensive inventory and rectification, requiring that the accounts must be clear and accurate.
She also formulated a series of strict financial management systems and strengthened supervision and control over the Ministry of Revenue.
Finally, she lit the third fire. She came all the way from the people and understood their sufferings and needs.
She found that the people were living in poverty and despair due to heavy taxes, so she immediately wrote to the emperor, asking him to reduce the tax burden on the people.
The three fires that the new Minister of Revenue started on his first day in office were so vigorous and frightening that they shocked the emperor...
