Chapter 1797 The knowledge of giving gifts

Zhang Zhidong's example is relatively good, at least there is a real reason to write.

Many officials have negligible reasons for running the pen, such as bringing couplets and characters to the gift giver, giving the gift giver a pen name, etc., and there is even no reason at all, so they can still collect the money sent in the name of Run Pen.

In the middle and late Qing Dynasty, gift giving suddenly became simple, and the gift givers didn't have to think about how to give it.

Because at that time, the officialdom had already formed a complete system and culture of gift giving.

When entering the officialdom, as long as you follow the rules, you can give gifts smoothly and harmoniously.

For example, if there are three festivals and two birthdays, subordinates will give gifts to superior officials. For example, welcoming and giving gifts, the name of officials giving gifts is also very nice, and the words "no money" are not involved, and they exude a sense of elegance.

When a senior official leaves the country, officials have to say goodbye, colleagues set off, officials have to say goodbye. These names sound humane, which makes people difficult to refute, and it is even more inconvenient to investigate and deal with strictly in accordance with the law.

Moreover, the expenses of these names can be listed under the public funds of the yamen. Why don’t officials do it?

In the late Qing Dynasty, there were inevitably those who had to put a silver note in the official documents.

The collection of anecdotes in the Qing Dynasty, "Ten Ye Ye Wen", said that the ambassadors of the late Qing Dynasty who expressed filial piety to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, and should put silver notes in the gift list; the emperor will live for thousands of years, congratulate the Forbidden City, and should put silver notes in the memorial.

These silver notes were taken away by the officers, which was equivalent to the personal servants around the leader. To give gifts, you must start with the personal servants.

If they don’t put a silver note, they will hand over your congratulations a few days later, so that the emperor will not see your filial piety.

Each yamen has a set of implementation standards for the specific amount of the gift.

In "Official Appearance", there is a new official who offended his superiors and colleagues because he did not receive various gift standards for the gifts he received from the government office, and finally stepped down in disgrace.

In the late Qing Dynasty, when the gift-giving system was given, people in the officialdom did not have to worry about the way of giving gifts or safety issues.

Everyone has their own fun.

If a person wants to show his sincerity or sincerity, he only needs to add money to the standard.

Originally, on the birthday of the magistrate, the subordinate magistrate only needed to give 100 taels of silver. If a magistrate offered 2,000 taels of silver as a birthday gift and a famous painting for "appreciation", the magistrate immediately understood what the magistrate meant to him.

With the development of society, these gift-giving methods and methods gradually formed a complex gift-giving method in the modern officialdom, and to meet their preferences is still the most popular way of gift-giving in the modern officialdom.

Zhao Desan knew that Qiu Qiming wanted to understand Sister Su’s interests and hobbies through him first so that he could meet his preferences and strive to successfully give gifts. Once Sister Su accepted Qiu Qiming’s gifts, it means that Sister Su would say a few words to him about what he had done.

Zhao Desan narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a moment. He couldn't think of what interests and hobbies Sister Su had. After living with her for more than two years, Zhao Desan seemed to have really not noticed that Sister Su had any particularly obvious hobbies. As the Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee and Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Sister Su was too busy at work. When she came home in the evening, the two of them watched TV, chatted, and lingered in bed. A day passed. He couldn't think of what special interests Sister Su had. She racked her brains and thought about it, shook her head, and said: I really don't know what special hobbies my cousin has.

Hearing Zhao Desan say this, Qiu Qiming's smile slightly depressed and said: Then... That brother really doesn't know how to express his feelings to Minister Su... To give his preferences is one of Qiu Qiming's special skills. He was able to invite He Fengnian to have dinner that day, on the one hand, because He Fengnian was not invited to invite him to treat him because Zhao Desan invited him, and on the other hand, Qiu Qiming knew that He Fengnian had a hobby of collecting watches. Before that, he visited the cottage three times and gave him different styles of precious watches. Although he gave it for a while, he gave it just the right amount, which was deeply appreciated by He Fengnian.

Despite spending so much, for Qiu Qiming, as long as he can be successfully promoted to the position of deputy director and join the leadership team of the municipal bureau, more than 100,000 yuan will be a drop in the bucket, not worth mentioning.

Zhao Desan listened to Qiu Qiming's words, glanced at the bottle on the table, and turned the two bottles of beer upside down. For some reason, he felt that he was a little unhappy in drinking, so he turned his head and shouted at the bar: Get two more bottles of beer~!

Seeing that Zhao Desan hadn't drunk enough, Qiu Qiming suggested: Brother, why don't we brothers be a bit white?You have nothing to do in the afternoon, right?

Zhao Desan chuckled and shook his head and said: You can drink some beer. If there is something wrong with the unit in the afternoon, it will not delay the trouble.

Qiu Qiming nodded with a smile, asking others for help, of course, everything has to be followed.

Soon, the young waitress brought two bottles of beer over. Just as the waitress put the beer on the table, Zhao Desan inadvertently saw the green jade bracelet on the waitress's wrist. She felt excited. Su suddenly thought that when she met Sister Su last time, the jade bracelet on her wrist accidentally fell to the ground and broke, which made Sister Su very sorry. From Sister Su's expression, Zhao Desan could see that she liked the jade bracelet very much. Jade. Zhao Desan moved her eyebrows and said to Qiu Qiming: Brother Qiu, why don't you use better jadeware, such as bracelets, etc., go and try it. I think my cousin should be more interested in this.

Qiu Qiming, who was worried about giving gifts, suddenly heard Zhao Desan say this, as if he had discovered a new continent. He looked at Zhao Desan with his eyes shining and said with joy: Really Ah?

Zhao Desan poured a glass of wine, took a sip, and said: You can try it first.

So, Qiu Qiming kept Zhao Desan's reminder in his heart and prepared to visit Su Qing at the door at the right time. While thinking happily, he poured a glass of wine, picked up the glass and said: Come on, brother, thank you so much for this matter. After the matter is completed, I will thank you very much.

Zhao Desan chuckled and said: I don’t need to thank me, I didn’t help much, but Miss Fang has helped you a lot. When you become a deputy director, you can just turn Xiao Fang into a formal staffing.

Hearing Zhao Desan talking to Fang Qi, Qiu Qiming moved to Zhao Desan, hugged him, and said in his ear with his arms around: Brother, don’t worry about this. As long as it is what your brother Liu said, I will do as hello...

Zhao Desan knew that even if he didn't have to come forward in person, Qiu Qiming would definitely tell Fang Qi that he had spoken for her. A beautiful woman who knew how to be grateful like Fang Qi would definitely throw herself into her arms to repay him. Hehe... Thinking of Fang Qi's tempting body that night when she was taking a shower behind the atomized glass door, Zhao Desan's heart was already a little itchy.

The next morning, Zhao Desan was sitting in the office, and picked up the relevant documents signed by the district party committee and government and Lin's Construction Group and carefully pondered it. Because of this important matter, after Zhao Desan returned from the city after attending the system training, Gao Haiping did not report to him. Zhao Desan thought of this incident early on, so he called Gao Haiping to the office to ask. Although he did not criticize him clearly, between the lines, Zhao Desan still declared his majesty to Gao Haiping and clearly told Gao Haiping that these major events must be reported to him as soon as possible in the future.

Gao Haiping saw that Zhao Desan's face was very bad, and realized that he must have been angry with him because of this incident, so he could only nod his head obediently and then walked out of Zhao Desan's office in shame.

Dongdongdongdongdong... Gao Haiping just left Zhao Desan's office for a moment, when a knock on the door came from outside.

Zhao Desan responded casually while looking at the documents in his hand: Come in!

The door slowly pushed open with a creaking sound, and Liu Yue appeared at the door of the office, with a tender smile on her pretty face, and she secretly sent Qiubo to Zhao Desan with her big watery eyes.

Seeing Liu Yue's a little illegitimate look, Zhao Desan felt proud and pretended to be serious and asked: Liu Yue, is there anything wrong?

Liu Yue had a gentle smile on her face and said gently: Someone is looking for you.

Zhao Desan couldn't help but frowned slightly and asked in confusion: Who is it?

Liu Yue turned her head and gestured to the outside of the door. Then, a familiar middle-aged man appeared at the door of the office. Zhao Desan looked closely and realized that it was Qiu Qiming, who had just had dinner with him yesterday, standing at the door of the office with a smile.

Zhao Desan quickly stood up and greeted enthusiastically: It turned out to be Mr. Qiu... Captain Qiu Ah, come in and sit, come in and sit in and sit in quickly.Zhao Desan originally used to call him Brother Qiu, but suddenly felt that he was not very good at being too close to Qiu Qiming in front of Liu Yue, so he changed his mind and immediately changed it to the official title.

Qiu Qiming walked in and said with a smile: Director Liu is very busy.

No matter how busy you are, how can you not entertain Captain Qiu?Zhao Desan smiled and said politely, walked out of the desk, called Qiu Qiming to sit down on the sofa, and sat down on the sofa opposite him.

When Liu Yue heard Zhao Desan call this middle-aged man Captain Qiu, she also knew that the man was the leader of a certain unit. She was very good at making trouble and took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for each of Zhao Desan and Qiu Qiming.

Liu Yue, okay, you can go and go ahead. If you have any trouble, I will call you again.I just met Qiu Qiming yesterday. I have already mentioned what I should say and what I should make. Today he came to the unit to find him in person. Zhao Desan felt that something must be wrong. It was not convenient to have Liu Yue present, so he wanted to send Liu Yue away in a gentle way.

Liu Yue was a smart girl. Knowing the implication of Zhao Desan's words, she smiled gently at Zhao Desan, nodded, and quit from Zhao Desan's office with tactfulness, and pulled into the door.

After watching Zhao Desan walk out of his office, Zhao Desan picked up the cigarette box from the coffee table and handed a cigarette to Qiu Qiming, and asked with a smile: Brother Qiu, come to me to find me in person today. Is there anything else?Zhao Desan called Qiu Qiming Captain Qiu, and privately, he called Brother Qiu, which is a small detail in the way of being an official.

Qiu Qiming took a cigarette handed over by Zhao Desan. Before he could light it, he smiled at Zhao Desan, and opened the briefcase and took out a wooden box the size of a palm from it. Zhao Desan looked at the wooden box in his hand curiously. The whole body of the box was dark brown, with delicately carved and soft patterns on it, which looked extremely exquisite. When he saw this box, he felt that it was valuable.
