Early the next morning, Wang Lanfeng rode a bicycle and took Zhang Zhu to the Big Dung Division.

Entering the warm office, Zhang Zhu handed over the cyan cloth bag in his hand.

"Brother Ling, this is what my father asked me to give to you, you count." Zhang Zhu counted many times, but he didn't sleep well all night, this money is too much.

Wang Lanling said: "Don't count, it's not safe to put this money here for me, so let's put it with your sister-in-law." ”

Although there are no thieves here, the sense of security is not strong, and Wang Lanling does not want to hide his money here.

The [official] attribute of the yamen is too high, and everyone is afraid of it.

Zhang Zhu was embarrassed to take it back, so he looked at Wang Lanfeng.

Wang Lanfeng's body has recovered, he is young, and the bicycle is back, and he is not the only one who was scared, so he recovered relatively quickly.

This is the first time Wang Lanfeng has come to the big dung division, not only does it not smell of feces as imagined, but it is also very clean, and it feels hot as soon as you come in, like it has been from winter to summer.

In the place of the desk, there are all kinds of melon seeds and sweet fruits, as well as sweet radishes that you don't eat after a few bites.

was pushed by his wife, Wang Lanfeng reacted and said: "You are not young now, and you are an official again, our father told me some time ago, asking if you like Bai Yan or not, and I want to set a family affair for you." ”

Marriage is a big deal, and after Wang Lanling became an official, the people of Wangjiabao wanted to fix the previous things through this matter.

Feng Lazi Xu Baifeng has always been scared because of Zhu Bao's matter, he doesn't have no taste when he eats, and he often has nightmares when he sleeps, and now he wants to reconcile with Wang Lanling.

Wang Lanling didn't expect to talk about this, he felt that he was still young, and he didn't have such a strong sense of reality about marriage for the time being.

"Let's talk about it in two years, I don't have that kind of idea now, and whether this official can be a long time or not, I don't have a sense of steadiness, this money should be put in your place."

It's not that she doesn't like it, Xu Baiyan is also a beautiful girl, but Wang Lanling feels that now that she has no home or job, she can't still live next door to her brother and sister-in-law when she gets married.

Even if they don't care, Wang Lanling himself minds.

It's even worse to live in the government here, and the county lord has to buy a house to live in.

I lost my official hat one day, and it was difficult to come back and get something.

When Wang Lanfeng and Zhang Zhu heard Wang Lanling's words, they agreed.

"Today, our town will pay for the spring salary, I will send your sister-in-law back first, and I will go to the town to work later."

Wang Lanfeng has been waiting for today for a long time, and his illness can get better so quickly, and there is also a reason for his salary.

Wang Lanling nodded, and said with a smile: "You go to work first, I'll find a car to send my sister-in-law back when I get the grain, I don't lack food and drink here, you can use this grain, I will go back for a meal occasionally." ”

Zhang Zhu also knew that Wang Lanling's eating and drinking were all public, and said happily: "Hah! Brother Ling, I'll buy oil at night, and I'll send you spring rolls to eat tomorrow morning! ”

Because of the salary, Wang Lanfeng quickly rode away, and Zhang Zhu sat here to have breakfast with Wang Lanling.

Wang Lanfeng is a civil servant in the town, and the big dung division is from the county, and he has to go to the warehouse to receive the spring salary.

The warehouse is a place of messy things such as grain depot + vault + logistics, and Wang Lanling's official uniform and boots, as well as the weapons of the headhunters, are all received here.

The fertilizer content here is not high, mainly because it is strictly managed, and if something goes wrong, people will die.

Tian Yuanfang called a carriage, and every year when the salary was paid, everyone drove over.

At this time, there is no such thing as a long-term fine, but there are not many horse-drawn carriages, and more are human-powered carts.

The cost of horse-drawn carriages is too high, and manpower is more cost-effective than horse-drawn carriages.

You don't have to feed the horses, you don't have to make a stable, and you don't have to worry about getting sick.

In this flat county, rickshaws are much more efficient than horse-drawn carts.

Wang Lanling sat outside the carriage and looked nearby, and the outside was basically waiting on the street of Cangdianshu with a cart on his shoulder.

Tian Yuanfang and the other two people stood around the carriage, and Zhang Zhu was the only one in the carriage.

There was a queue ahead, and as the carriage approached a cart, the man who was smoking on the cart stepped down.

"Tian Gong, this is the newly appointed Lord Wang, right? It's been a long time! ”

Tian Yuanfang saw the person coming and quickly said, "My lord, this is Lord Guo from the Water Affairs Department." ”

Wang Lanling looked at this forty or fifty-year-old man, although the other party was wearing an official uniform, he was more like that kind of gangster.

"Fortunately, I will be fortunate to meet in Xia Wang Lanling, come over to eat a mouthful of food, has Lord Guo been here for a long time?" Wang Lanling greeted politely.

In the past few days, he has also figured out the official road here.

The fat content is higher than him, and the one who is freer than him is basically only the yamen.

In previous years, his position was not good, mainly because the two masters above bullied people.

This year, the two masters are very sensible, so they have gained weight.

This water affairs department is the clean water yamen, mainly managing the cleaning of the river and the fire prevention in the city, and taking a dead salary, and at the same time taking extra care during the flood season every year, and often going to the nearby rivers and lakes to investigate and map.

The only extra income is to drill wells, but this has to be shared with the people in the construction department, so there is not much extra money.

Guo Juli looked at this young man who was younger than his grandson and knew that although this young man was young, he had a very good future.

"I've been here for a while, Lord Wang said official language, I can understand it, and I want to learn, I recently went to the yamen to find the county lord to report to work, because I didn't understand the official language and was scolded miserably."

Guo Juli was very uncomfortable, he was already talking very seriously, but that county lord who was a good boy was too difficult to speak.

The people around him said that he had no problem talking, but the county lord said that he couldn't understand it, and he slapped the table there and got angry.

It's really hard to be an official.

When Wang Lanling heard it, he said: "Then let's talk about official words, Lord Guo, you are free, I can understand it." ”

This between Lord Guo and Lord Dongfang is probably a contest between the high-end version of the slag Hui and the local discourse in the northwest region.

When officials want to learn to speak official language, some local officials have to speak official language when they go to Shangzhou City to report the situation.

However, this is a county seat, and many people have never been out of the county, so they naturally lack understanding of official language.

Guo Juli heard Wang Lanling's official words, and said with a sigh: "It's too late for me to learn now, and it's not material for learning at all." ”

Wang Lanling didn't want to discuss this kind of issue, so he changed the topic and talked about happy things.

"It's all at this time, and the county lord and the governor who came first should have finished receiving their spring salary."

Guo Juli came early, and when he heard it, he said: "No, the county lord just came this year, and there was no spring salary, so he pulled a cart of rice, flour, grain and oil and went back. ”

Wang Lanling also asked, and after hearing that the two giants of Chengguan Town had no money like himself, he felt a lot more comfortable.

Wang Lanling didn't speak, Guo Juli said in a low voice: "It's the governor's wife who came to receive the spring salary today, I look at her sad face, it is estimated that the governor's health will not be too good, he has not practiced martial arts, where can his body bones support the thirty boards of six doors." ”

Wang Lanling was shocked and asked cautiously: "If you die, do you still have this money?" ”

Guo Juli said: "If you have merit, your descendants can take it back, and there will be additional pensions." If it's mediocre and hasn't done anything good, it's natural to have as many as you want, and now it's up to the governor to see if he can survive this year. ”

Hearing this, Wang Lanling felt that this court was quite authentic.

Wang Lanling continued to ask: "What about resignation?" Is there still a spring pay? ”

Guo Juli nodded, "Yes, where will the imperial court care about this little money, as much as it should be." ”

Guo Juli took a puff on the cigarette holder of the wooden cigarette stick, and exhaled a burst of smoke as he spoke.

Wang Lanling thought about it, before he was eighteen years old, would he be able to earn enough money to return to his hometown?
