Chapter 295, there is a long way to go
After entering the county office, Lu Ruxue let Caixing out, and let her inquire around. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Now that there is news, it is natural to talk back and forth.
"There are rich families in the county, and most of them live in Dongfang. The most lively is the Dongshi Street in Dongfang yesterday. "As for where the poorest are, you don't need to inquire about the stars, Lu Ruxue can also see it.
"As for the county office, in addition to the third master and a magistrate, there is also a county man with the eighth grade, surnamed Wang. Born in a poor family, he was a fellow jinshi in the fifteenth year of Hongwu. A family of more than ten people is crowded in Nanfang Pomegranate Lane, a small courtyard with two entrances. ”
It is said that "the same Jinshi is like a lady", and sure enough, it is true. Just look at the position of Wang Xiancheng in the county, he has been sitting for more than ten years, and he is not allowed to advance, which can be seen in general. However, this also has a lot to do with his humble background and no powerful background in the DPRK.
Lu Ruxue took the tea bowl that Cai Yue handed to him, and then motioned for Cai Xing to continue.
"I heard that this Wang Xiancheng has been married before Zhongtong Jinshi. There are many brothers in the family, but they do not take concubines. "Looking at this person's demeanor, if he is willing to work hard, he might as well suggest that his father bring one or two.
Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, although this person has acted biased before, it is not necessarily all his fault. As the so-called upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked.
"As for the master of the ninth grade, I heard that he only donated his official position two years ago. The family lives in Pine Forest Lane in Dongfang. ”
No wonder my father will be dissatisfied with the two, both are Zuo Erguan, one has just been on an errand, and he just wants to get back the capital, and he has no intention of doing things, but the family moved into the best Dongfang in the county.
After ten years of service, the family is still crowded in the small courtyard of Nanfang. If Lu Ruxue is replaced, I am afraid that it will be like that Wang County, and it will be difficult to balance my heart.
She didn't need to care about these things. But since you're here, you should know more about it, just to prevent it from happening.
But even if the county can use it, it won't be overnight. What is most lacking around my father today is a staff master.
Before leaving Beijing, Lu Chengzu suggested that Lu Chengyao let him hire a staff member in the Taifu Mansion as his master and go to his post together.
But those guest secretaries in the Taifu Mansion, where would they take a fancy to Lu Chengyao, a small seven-grade sesame official. So Lu Chengyao could only refuse his brother's kindness.
"No curtain is not a ya", a master who is good at handling the name of punishment and money valley, can not only help Lu Chengyao deal with government affairs, but also rely on him as his right-hand man. Over time, you can even become an inseparable cronie.
Seeing that Miss was deep in thought, Cai Xing stopped talking, not daring to disturb, just waiting for Miss to come back to her senses.
Lu Ruxue tightened her eyebrows, what is most lacking in the 21st century is talent. I didn't expect to return to ancient times, only to find that this is simply an eternal problem with no solution. It's useless to think too much about things that can't be solved for a while. Only then did he raise his head and signal the star picking to continue.
"Yes!" Caixing took a sip of tea, and then continued, "In addition to the two officials who led the imperial court, there is also the official history of the chief who is in charge of the correspondence. Faculty in charge of the teachings. I heard that the teacher was born in Confucianism, was very high, and had some prestige among the students in the county. ”
"The rest are some miscellaneous duties, miscellaneous servants, etc., before the third master came, these subordinates were uneven, there were less than twenty people. The third master has recruited a little, and now it has increased to more than 30 people. ”
Although these people have not entered the stream, since they are on errands, they also want to take money. All of this has to be paid by Lu Chengyao. No wonder when she left, whether it was her grandmother or her two cousins-in-law, everyone stuffed a lot of silver tickets for her. Co-authored for fear of being eaten poor by these people.
"If all the vacancies are filled, I don't know how many people will be needed to serve as errands?" Lu Ruxue was also thinking about the silver in her hand, and she still had a lot to do. In order to help Lu Chongyu repay his debts, he took out three thousand taels at once.
Thanks to this outing, her grandmother made up for the shortfall. and received two thousand taels of silver from two cousins-in-law. With these five thousand taels, you should be able to do a lot of things.
The slave inquired as well. "Caixing likes to do these things the most, so the inquiry is also very detailed. Seeing that the eldest lady was interested, she even talked about her eyebrows.
Cai Yue glared at Cai Xing, afraid that she would be happy for a while and forget her proportions. Cai Xing didn't care.
"Except for the three classes of soap, fast and strong, there are dozens of people at least and hundreds at most. There is also a storehouse that looks after the grain storehouse. The old handyman who guards the warehouses. ”
"And then there's the gatekeeper. Guarding the forbidden son of the prison. Cooks, cooks, grooms, grooms, etc. Wangping is under the jurisdiction of Guangning Wei, but there are fewer county lieutenants, soldiers, volunteers, and militiamen. ”
That is, the security in the city, which is under the control of Guangning Wei. It is no wonder that the previous governors of the county wanted to collude with the commander of Guangningwei. The commander who does not have military power is, in the final analysis, a toothless tiger, and he is useless.
"There is a long way to go!" Lu Ruxue couldn't help but sigh for her father.
Seeing that Caixing didn't need to be added, he told her and Caiyue to rest. Only Cailian was left to serve closely.
wrote a letter to Mu Xuanyang before going to bed, which has become her daily habit. However, the letter was not sent directly to King Yan's Mansion, but entrusted Jian Sui and asked him to find a way to directly transfer it to Mu Xuanyang.
As soon as the government opened on the second day, someone recommended himself to see Lu Chengyao. The news of the star picking gossip spread quickly, and it was only a quarter of an hour before this person entered the mansion, and Lu Ruxue already knew about it.
"Do you know what this person means?"
Most of the self-recommended people are two kinds of people, one is to seek an official and a half-job, so that they can support their families. and the other wants to climb up with Lu Chengyao's background. If the former has real talent and real learning, it can be used. The latter can be avoided.
The third master closed the door, leaving only the chief manager Lu to wait, and the slave and maid couldn't inquire. It seems that my father valued this man very much, and ordered the stove to be prepared, and if there was no accident, my father was likely to keep the meal.
Sure enough, before lunch, a word came from the lobby of the outer courtyard, saying that the magistrate wanted to leave Master Chen for dinner. And let Wang Xiancheng and Zhao Zhushu sit together. Ask your wife to help you set up a table for the banquet.
Yun and Lu Ruxue were a little surprised, it was only one morning, and their father decided to use this person as their master, and even introduced him to the county and the chief bookkeeper. It can be seen that this person must have real talent and real learning.
However, Lu Ruxue is still inevitably worried, but it is not easy for Caixing to go to the outer courtyard. I had to send Lu Feng to Mr. Lu's side to do chores, and I had to inquire a lot.
Soon after lunch, I got news from Lu Feng.
This Master Chen was a person in the 20 years of Hongwu, and because he did not want to be an official, he did not participate in the examination. But for some reason, I went to Liangxiang County, which is under the jurisdiction of Beiping Mansion, and went to serve as the master.
Now it is recommended by others, and this is why I came to Wangping.
"It doesn't make sense. Lu Ruxue had some doubts about the purpose of this person's coming here. Thinking that this person is from Beiping Mansion, maybe Jian Sui can understand something. He ordered Cai Xing to invite someone to inquire.
