Although the imperial court abolished etiquette such as kowtowing and kneeling on some occasions, the status of people has never changed.

The emperor is the emperor, the emperor's relatives are the emperor's relatives, and the high-level status and rights represent the layers of moats, and the lowest end of the mountains is those people.

In this empire, people, like rights, are hierarchical.

Wang Lanling, a nine-rank official, is the twenty-fourth rank of the twenty-fifth rank township earl.

Just like the Yamen's suppression of martial arts people, Lao Zhao let his subordinates break into people's houses and kill people for a strange reason, these are all small things in this era.

If the killer is an official, or an official family such as a slave relative, what can be done in this era of restricting the movement of people? What will you do?

Human life is really worthless here, but fortunately, it is bound by the imperial power, and everyone "knows" that those who are killed by the government are "guilty".

Those who often die as officials are conducive to the stability of the people's minds, which is a strange fact that is very much in line with this era.

If you offend the emperor and offend the dog official, it is a matter of course that you will die, as long as you have this idea and think that this idea is okay, then you are the obedient people of this era.

Those who don't go well will die early.

So Wang Lanling is really a very strange person, he attaches importance to human life here, and what he does is in the eyes of Dongfang Wei and the rest of the people, he is seizing power and losing the face of others.

It's just a few boatmen, and if they die, they will die, and in the opinion of Dongfang Wei and others, the coal mine that fell into the water and the follow-up responsibilities should be dealt with earlier.

Liu Fufeng quickly said: "Director Wang, since you are here, please take care of this matter and assist me in handling this matter." ”

Dongfang Wei is unwilling to let Wang Lanling continue to be in charge, as long as Wang Lanling is in charge, then his power will continue to grow.

"Just leave this matter to the people of the Water Affairs Department to do, salvage all the coal under the water as soon as possible, and when the people who fell into the water come out, they will be caught and interrogated by the county government!" Ask things clearly! ”

Dongfang Wei quickly decided on a good matter, and someone had to take the blame for this matter.

Liu Fufeng realized the problem, he is now a person from the county town, and now the situation in Heishui County is complicated, and if something happens, it is naturally his pot.

Without waiting for Liu Fufeng to resist, Xiong Ding said: "This is the first time this director has done this, right?" Why don't any of my subordinates even know how to work? ”

Liu Fufeng pleaded bitterly: "This matter should be the matter of the official department......

Qin Ruyi of the Guanshi Division was anxious, and shouted loudly: "It's true that this is the matter of the Guanshi Division, but I also sent someone over, and the people who loaded the ship to find the ship were all from your Water Affairs Division, where did we do wrong?" It's not my guy who fell! ”

Although loading a ship is different from loading a truck, people who can work can do everything steadily and learn everything quickly, and it is impossible for people in the official department to not understand the matter of loading.

Wang Lanling frowned and looked at Qin Ruyi, and found that Qin Ruyi's performance was a little too exaggerated.

Ordinary Wang Lanling does not have much intersection with the official market division, but in my impression, this has always been a relatively stable person, and he is also very greedy for money.

Chen Youcai quickly said: "Director Liu, now we are all helping you, if you have any difficulties, everyone will think about you, but what should be yours is yours, and you can't shirk your responsibility." ”

Liu Fufeng felt the pressure on his body increasing, and he recalled that when he was a teenager, he remembered that a new official in the county committed suicide shortly after taking office.

Liu Fufeng couldn't understand why the other party committed suicide at the time, and he didn't commit a major crime that would implicate his family, but now, he inexplicably recalled this little thing that he didn't care about at the time.

The current matter is not serious, but Liu Fufeng only feels sad and helpless in his heart, he especially wants to be an official and wants to get ahead, but after entering this world, he realized that this is really eating people without spitting out bones.

Once they can't eat those slaves who are lower than them, they eat the people they eat with, like the overseas demons in a storybook.

Liu Fufeng is very smart, and he knows very well that he is now regarded by these people as the lowest puddle, and whoever is in the water can pour dirty water here.

When everyone says that a person is at fault, the person's justification is no longer important.

"I ......" Liu Fufeng was speechless, after he glanced at the indifferent county governor and the Chen family who had a good relationship with the Liu family, he could only look at the young man who was much younger than him.

Wang Lanling looked at Guo Juli and Dongfang Wei, and clasped his fists and saluted: "Two adults, the coal falling into the water is just a small matter, it's okay if people are fine, craftsmen and boatmen are all people, no one is at fault, be careful next time." ”

"At present, there is no major loss of this batch of goods, it is better to hand it over to the Water Affairs Department to deal with it yourself, so that it will not delay the trade of the caravan."

Wang Lanling spoke official language, and many people could understand it.

Turning big things into small things and small things is a normal thing in itself, and there is no need to ask people to take responsibility for small things.

Dongfang Wei didn't want to make a big fuss, he was doing business now, and he didn't want to attract the attention of the people above.

If anything, these officials are the best supporters of regionalization.

Xiong Ding also had this idea, and he was also willing to give Wang Lanling a face.

His official position is much bigger than Wang Lanling and the county commander, and he is not afraid of retaliation, but after a long time as a businessman, he will choose like this, and he just asks for everything.

"Of course it's a good thing to be able to get to the next place quickly, so please help arrange things here."

Compared with the people in the Water Affairs Department and the Municipal Affairs Department, Xiong Ding felt that Wang Lanling would do things better.

Xiong Ding is of a higher rank than Dongfang Wei, and after Xiong Ding spoke, he said helplessly: "Then the Environmental Sanitation Department and the Water Affairs Department will handle this matter together." ”

Wang Lanling clenched his fists and said: "My lord, I don't know much about this matter, I need Lord Qin to stay and help, he knows more about the affairs of the official department than me." ”

Dongfang Wei just wanted to solve the matter quickly, "Okay, Qin Ruyi, you stay and help Wang Lanling." ”

Not only did Dongfang Wei send someone over, but Xiong Ding also asked the adjutant to stay and help.

Something just happened, and it was a normal decision to leave someone here to watch at this time.

If it weren't for his special identity and inappropriate to stand here all the time, then Xiong Ding himself would be standing here and watching.

One of the people in the water was quickly rescued, and the other was crushed under the ore, and when the boat capsized, he was directly stoned to death by the leaning ore.

Although it is said that human life is not valuable, it is enough to give a little money to the family, but the people of the Liu family around looked at the restrained and helpless Liu Fufeng at this time, and their eyes changed a lot.

Dead people are not a big deal, a big thing is because of this matter, Liu Fufeng's incompetent performance made the rest of the people see no hope and look aggrieved.

The only one who can save Heishui County is Wang Lanling!
