Wear it to a club in another world

Less than a month later, Gu Daoxin found out that the current Minister of Rites was using his position to seek personal gain for his family.

The Ministry of Rites presides over various ceremonies and sacrifices. There are a lot of things needed for the ceremony that need to be purchased from outsiders. The Minister of the Ministry of Rites is responsible for the purchases. He asked his brother-in-law to specialize in this type of business. Buying, the reported price is three times the normal price, but the things are defective, and the cost is extremely low.In this way, it is natural to make huge profits from it.

The emperor was almost numb. After reading the memorial, he let Gu Daoxin take care of it himself, and worked with the Ministry of Punishment to take care of it. There was no need to tell him the result. As for the candidate for the new Minister of Rites, he should just go up from the bottom.

This servant was originally a member of Lu Yijing, and the Ministry of Rituals was no different than other departments, because the requirements for etiquette and etiquette were extremely high, and it could not be achieved overnight, so there were no airborne ministers in the history, and they were all made up by the servant.The current minister of the Ministry of Rites is very old, and he has only been serving in the past two years, and he will be replaced by the minister at that time.

It was originally Tang Yun, but since the Tang family's accident, Tang Yun inherited the Dukedom of the country and automatically resigned from the position of servant. Lu Yijing seized the opportunity and replaced his own man.

Originally, as long as nothing happened, the new Minister of Rites in the coming year would be his man, but this happened.

Min Huai'en's younger brother, Min Huai Si, was replaced by the Minister of Rites. At the beginning, the two entered the six departments together, but they were both insignificant and small officials, so no one noticed. Now the two brothers stand out. A double Shangshu has never happened before.

The last account.

Whoever can control the household department is equivalent to having an inexhaustible money bag.In order to compete for the household department, Lu Yijing and Lu Yihong quarreled very fiercely, but in the end Lu Yihong got it.

However, Kong Xiangqiu, Minister of the Household Department, was found corrupt by Gu Daoxin.

If it is a general greed for ink, it may not be particularly serious. What he is greedy for is the tribute given to the emperor by the local government.

It should be said that Kong Xiangqiu is also a careful person, always considerate in his work, and rarely reveals his flaws. Gu Daoxin has been investigating for a long time but has not found his fault, otherwise he would not have dragged the household department to the last one to deal with it.

Gu Daoxin is also lucky, it will be Lu Yihong's birthday soon, this Kong Xiangqiu is Lu Yihong's man, and he has made a lot of money under Lu Yihong's care for so many years, and now the master's birthday, naturally he racked his brains to give something nice thing.

But Kong Xiangqiu was born stingy with money. He usually spends very frugally on food and clothing, and patches can be seen on the cuffs of his clothes. Because of this, people often praise him as the Minister of the Ministry of Households, but he has a clean sleeve. It is really rare, even the emperor. awards.But in fact, he is stingy and reluctant to spend.

All the greedy money was exchanged by him for real money and piled up in several warehouses, and he had to sleep in the pile of gold at night.Every time he had to give [-]% of the dividends to Lu Yihong, his heart ached to death. So, how could he be willing to spend too much money as a gift to Lu Yihong?

Lu Yihong also knew about his situation. In previous years, on his birthday, he would specifically ask Kong Xiangqiu not to give him anything, because he was afraid that Kong Xiangqiu would give him some poor things, which made him even more angry.But there are so many things this year, how can Lu Yihong remember this?Did not remind.Kong Xiangqiu thought that His Highness wanted to give him a good gift this year.

It happened that the tributes from the household registration offices in various places had to go through his hands, so he thought that there were so many tributes anyway, no one would know if one was deducted, and he only needed to reorganize a gift list so that no one would notice it, and then he would return Give the buckled tribute to Lu Yihong as a birthday gift.How perfect is that?

When Gu Daoxin found out about this, he stabbed the emperor. The emperor was so angry that he not only took off Kong Xiangqiu's head, but also severely punished him and Lu Yihong.

Lu Yihong didn't dare to intercede with Kong Xiangqiu, and because he was involved in the matter, it was difficult to recommend a new candidate for Shangshu.

Lu Yijing was embarrassed again, and was about to send his own person to the position, but the emperor didn't agree, and instead asked Gu Daoxin for his opinion.

Gu Dao thought about it, and recommended Xu Minda, the former servant of the household department.

The emperor didn't think about it for a while, but after Gu Daoxin reminded him, he remembered that the former servant of the household department was indeed Xu Minda, but because he made a mistake, he was released to manage the hot spring village.

Speaking of which, what Xu Minda committed was trivial and harmless at all, but it was because Kong Xiangqiu couldn't tolerate him that he had to be transferred out.

At that time, the emperor still trusted Kong Xiangqiu, and he didn't have a deep impression of Xu Minda. He only knew that the humanities were well written, and he didn't know anything else. If Kong Xiangqiu wanted to do that, he didn't stop him.

But now knowing Kong Xiangqiu's true face, based on the principle that "bad guys" hate people should be "good guys", the emperor thinks that Xu Minda should be a good guy, and there is Gu Daoxin's recommendation, so the emperor made a decree to let Xu Minda came back and succeeded him as Minister of the Household Department.

For Xu Minda, this is "a person sits at home, and the power comes from heaven."

Although he had lived a relaxed and comfortable life these years, he often recalled all kinds of things in the officialdom.If it is not a last resort, why doesn't he want to serve the court?Is it possible that the ten years of cold window sage books are just to look at these hot spring pools?

Xu Minda always has the heart to serve the country, but he has no way to serve the country. His indifferent smile is full of powerlessness to reality.

Now, Gu Daoxin gave him this opportunity, and he has decided that from now on, Gu Daoxin will be his benefactor!What did the benefactor ask him to do?As long as it does not violate morality and etiquette, he must obey it.

In a blink of an eye, it was already early December.

In half a year, Gu Daoxin really killed a "river of blood" in the court.

Now those officials in the imperial court feel trembling when they hear Gu Daoxin's name, they are really frightened to hear about Gu Daoxin, no one will think that he is a man to handle just because of his kind expression.

However, after such a cleansing process, the atmosphere in the court has indeed been improved a lot, and many talented officials who were originally quite talented but were not reused because they refused to flatter them were all employed.It's a good sign.

Gu Daoxin took advantage of the emperor's order to almost wipe out Lu Yihong and Lu Yijing's minions, and most of the people who came to power were the only ones who looked after him and Lu Zhen.

To control the six ministries is to control most of the imperial court. Gu Daoxin has initially realized his plan of arrangement above the imperial court.

Meanwhile, the new store has been open for several months.

The sport of golf was popular among the upper class in the original world, but Gu Daoxin made some changes to push this sport to the rich and powerful in Shengjing.

The reason why the new store needs such a large piece of land is because Gu Daoxin wants to build a golf course, which is the main business of the new store.

There are many pastimes for young people, and the most common pastime is playing polo. A few rich men get together and ride wildly on horses.This kind of exercise is only suitable for young people, and it is inconvenient for the elderly.

But in fact, many elderly people also want to be active, but there is no suitable way.So Gu Daoxin came to solve the problem for them.

Golf is a relatively gentle sport, and anyone under the age of 65 can play it.

Those who are idle at home, the old masters, the old princes, and the elders of the pavilion, or the vain titles supported by the court, can all come to play golf.

And although they don't have real power in their hands, they do have connections. Their descendants either inherit titles or hold important positions in the court.As an elder, speaking in front of the younger generation naturally carries a lot of weight, and being able to build a good relationship with them is to build a good relationship with these people in power in the court.Naturally, as Su Fang thought at the beginning, he gained a lot from contacts.

The business of the golf course has been very good since its opening. People from the parents’ and grandparents’ generations meet up with their friends from their home country to play golf every day. Drinking tea and playing chess have long been boring, and even old people will be attracted by new things.

And there is also a gazebo resting area on the side. When you are tired, you can rest on the side, drink tea, eat some snacks, and listen to music.

The golf course in Gudaoxin also rescued many homeless children, some were abandoned, some were children of beggars.

Although Gu Daoxin also hired many beggars in his previous business, but because it was too hard, he didn't use children.

But it’s different in the golf course, caddy is also necessary, it doesn’t matter if you are younger, anyway, it’s not too tiring, as long as you don’t look ugly, take care of it a little, and teach some etiquette, then it’s not a problem at all .

Gu Daoxin handed over the job of teaching the children etiquette to Yunbao and Yuebao, and the two children were very happy when they knew that the second brother had such an arrangement.They have been lamenting how lucky they are to be able to meet their elder brother and second elder brother in the darkest and most difficult time when they lost all relatives except each other.

They have always hoped to help children like them, or even less fortunate than them.Now that they finally have the opportunity, the two children completely regard themselves as adults, imitating their master, teaching these children of similar age to read and learn etiquette, and live a busy and fulfilling day.

In half a year, running the business, killing all directions in the court hall, Gu Daoxin is also very exhausted, and the only thing I can do to relax is to nest with Lu Zhen and drink small wine on Lu Zhen's shoulder , and playing the flute for Lu Zhen.

His flute-playing skills have improved by leaps and bounds. He was fascinated by Su Fang and Moting when they heard it before, and they always pestered him to play.He didn't mind, but one time when Lu Zhen was away, Su Fang and Mo Ting came to listen to him play the flute. Later, when Lu Zhen came back and saw him, he suppressed his flute and stopped him from playing.

Although Lu Zhen didn't say anything at the time, Gu Daoxin just felt that his family Xianzhang was jealous.After that, Gu Daoxin would either only blow it to Lu Zhen, or wait for other people to blow it when Lu Zhen was there.
