Chapter 115: Joy and Sorrow
Long Swing Dart Board.
In the lobby, Jin Yuanwu informed his father of today's personnel changes.
Jin Muxing's face bloomed with a smile, and said, "Quan'er, go to Tianfu Building to book a banquet, let's celebrate today!" ”
"Dad, how many people can sit at a table? Why spend that unjust money, just let the kitchen cook more dishes, set up a few tables of banquets in the dart game, and everyone can be happy together! Jin Yuanwu persuaded.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Jin Lanzhi suddenly asked, "Zhanyuan, how many rank officials are you doing as a county lieutenant?" ”
Jin Muxing reprimanded: "Laneige, Yuan'er is also a person with status now, how can you still call him by his name?" ”
"People are used to it."
"That has to be changed, too!"
Zhan Yuan hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, it's okay, I love Lanzhi and call me that." ”
"Yuan'er, don't spoil her too much, just listen to your father-in-law about this." Jin Muxing waved his hand.
Zhan Yuan had no choice but to nod, pause, and said, "I should be the same as the previous Li County Lieutenant, I am the ninth grade." ”
"Brother, what kind of lieutenant is you?" Jin Lanzhi laughed.
Jin Yuanwu groaned: "The captain of the city defense is from the eighth rank, and I should be from the ninth grade." ”
Jin Lanzhi grinned and said, "Brother, although your martial arts are higher than Brother Zhan, the official can always surpass him." ”
Jin Yuanwu shook his head and smiled, not too concerned.
"By the way, Yuan'er, recently many new dart masters have been added to the dart bureau, and the newly opened tea shop has also stabilized, I have enough manpower here, you can get your second senior brother into the yamen." Jin Muxing said with a smile.
After hearing this, Zhang Quan lowered his head and muttered, "Master, I want to go to work under Senior Brother." ”
"How can you be promoted as fast as an ordinary soldier, don't you see that your senior brother was also promoted from a fast catcher to a command, and then to a captain?" Jin Muxing reprimanded.
Zhang Quan didn't dare to refute anymore, so he responded.
The third disciple, Li Sheng, shouted, "Master, what about me?" ”
Jin Muxing said lightly: "Your martial arts are not as good as Quan'er, so let's go and watch the tea shop." ”
"I see." Li Sheng gritted his teeth and bowed his head, his eyes full of jealousy.
Since Zhan Yuan became the head catcher, Changwei Dart Bureau began to develop to business, with the ability of the Dart Bureau, and there is no need to pay for it, every time you send a dart you can bring some of your own goods, through this model, it has begun to make a profit.
"Daddy, I'll tell you something, you can't believe it." Jin Lanzhi laughed.
"What's so mysterious?"
Jin Lanzhi glanced left and right, and saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him, so he said: "Ma Kongming, the prince of Ma, is also the head catcher in the county government now, and I recommended it!" ”
Jin Muxing was startled at first, and then smiled:
"This is not unusual, there are nobles behind Lord Lu, and the future is naturally limitless, and there will only be more and more people who come to take refuge in him, but officialdom is not like the rivers and lakes, the most particular about qualifications, no matter how high his martial arts are, isn't he going to do things under Yuan'er now?"
"That's right, although Lord Lu is a good official, he is also shrewd and knows how to curry favor with those big officials." Jin Lanzhi nodded repeatedly.
"Laneige, how can you say that about Lord County!" Jin Yuanwu reprimanded.
Jin Lanzhi stuck out his tongue and said: "Originally, I was praising him, if he looks like an old antique and loses his official position, none of us will be good." ”
"Lord Lu has no choice but to curry favor with Feng Yanting, don't talk nonsense, and since we have followed him, we must do things for him wholeheartedly to ensure that he does not lose his official position." Jin Yuanwu is colorful.
Jin Muxing saw that his son was becoming more and more majestic, and he was very satisfied, and said, "Yuan Wu, I have decided to accept Yuan Qing and Mo Xiaosheng as inner disciples, what do you think?" ”
"The boy thinks it's good."
Mo Xiaosheng was overjoyed, and bowed down and said, "Apprentice to meet the master!" ”
Jin Muxing smiled and nodded, glanced left and right, and frowned, "What about Yuanqing?" ”
"Hey, he was next to me just now!" Mo Xiaosheng said in surprise.
……
When the Changwei Dart Bureau was happy, the Iron Gun Gate was a chicken flying and a dog jumping.
In the lobby, Luo Yong's face was angry, if there was only one news that Luo Tai had been promoted to the head of the team, he would naturally be full of joy.
But Changwei Dart Bureau has one more county lieutenant, one deputy lieutenant, one head catcher, and two squad leaders, which makes him feel very unbalanced, and even Zhang Wande's traitor has been promoted to head catcher, pressing Luo Tai by one level.
Luo Yong said hatefully: "Sure enough, one step behind, all the games are lost, they occupy a high position, naturally they will only promote their own people." ”
"These are all appointed by Lord Lu himself." Rotai said.
"They are often by Lord Lu's side, so they can naturally say more good things."
"This promotion is all based on merit, and other people have indeed made more contributions than children." Rotai shook his head.
Luo Yong yelled at several disciples, "What are you doing eating in the Yamen these days? Why can't the credit of Li be as good as that of Yuan Qing and Mo Xiaosheng? ”
One of the disciples said aggrievedly, "You often let us come back to help deal with the affairs of the door, so naturally our patrol time is not as good as theirs." ”
"Dare to blame me, well, I allow you not to deal with the affairs of the door, if you can't be promoted, don't blame me for the door rules!" Rayong was furious.
Luo Tai sighed, since the death of his eldest brother, his father's temper has become more and more irritable.
"Let's go, son, Daddy is going to help you get a head catcher." Rayong said, lifting the gun.
"What are you going to do?"
"Let's go find Zhang Wande and ask him to go and talk to Lord Lu himself, and swap with you!"
"How could he be willing?"
Luo Yong said coldly: "If you don't want the old man, he will beat him!" ”
Luo Tai was anxious, and when he saw that his father was about to go out with a gun, he hurriedly said: "Even if he really mentions it to Lord Lu, maybe Lord Lu will be angry and dismiss both of us!" ”
Rayong was stunned, threw the spear on the ground, and sat on the chair and sulked.
Luo Tai silently picked up the spear on the ground, and said in his heart: "Dad, don't worry, the child will never lose to Jin Yuanwu!" ”
……
In a small courtyard on Xuanwen Street east of Shecheng, Zhang Ziting heard Ma Kongming's promotion and said with a smile: "Big brother, you are really amazing, you can do a good job no matter what you do." ”
Ma Kongming laughed and said: "You don't know, although Lord Lu is an official, he is actually very similar to the people in our rivers and lakes, and after seeing him, my heart is finally steady." ”
"Big brother, since you misunderstood the third brother before, why don't you reconcile with him now?"
"That's right, I'll write to him to apologize when I get back."
After a pause, he said, "Ziting, I said before that I would come back to marry you when I saved Lord Lu, and now you see-"
Zhang Ziting blushed and said in a low voice: "This kind of thing, you just go and say no to your father?" ”
"So you agreed?" Ma Kongming was overjoyed.
I've been waiting for you for so many years, can you not agree? Zhang Ziting thought to herself and nodded slightly.
At this time, Zhang Dezhong suddenly walked out of the main house quickly, and Ma Kongming greeted: "Uncle Zhang-"
was about to ask him about kissing, but seeing Zhang Dezhong nodding at him slightly, he walked quickly to the door, Ma Kongming was puzzled: "What's wrong with your father?" ”
Zhang Ziting shook her head, looked at the main house, saw Ji Yan walking out of the house, and asked, "Uncle Ji, what's wrong with my father?" ”
Ji Yan frowned and said, "I just told him what Lord Lu said when he held a meeting at the county government today, and he said that he was going to the county office." ”
After a pause, he said, "I'll go and have a look." ”
As he spoke, he followed out the door.
……
Eagle Claw Gate is the first-rate sect in Yuezhou, and the head Chen Zhenfeng was originally a disciple of Tianying Gate, and later broke away from Tianying Gate and created his own Eagle Claw Gate. However, since the Southern Tang Emperor sent Bian Hao to attack the Chu State, Yuezhou, as a border with the Southern Tang Dynasty, was the first to be impacted.
Eagle Claw Gate had helped guard Baling City, although Bian Hao ordered to exonerate the Chu people who had joined the Southern Tang Dynasty, but after all, they had killed a lot of Tang troops, and it was difficult for them to continue to gain a foothold in Yuezhou, so they moved to Hongzhou, which remained.
Later, because the disciples in the sect offended the local spirit snake gang in Hongzhou, they had no choice but to move to Xinzhou.
One night more than a month ago, Hou Kaitai, an elder of the Eagle Claw Gate, suddenly received a letter from his younger brother, saying that he was working in Shezhou and asked about the sect.
So Hou Kaitai consulted with Chen Zhenfeng, because the reconstruction of the Eagle Claw Gate in Xinzhou was not smooth, Chen Zhenfeng thought to himself, since Hou Kaishan has a foundation in Shezhou, and Xinzhou is adjacent to Shezhou, it is better to be similar in the past.
