The big head and the small are dependent on the eighth master, not only can they cook, but the food they cook tastes good.

Although Pan Er had never been far away before, he was more shrewd than Du San in the capital, and he got acquainted with several neighbors when he bought something on the street, and inquired about the market of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in Beijing. The two of them had been busy all afternoon, and they just put together a table full of suppers.

Listening to the local sound and eating the spicy and fragrant hometown dishes, Fei Erye was full of emotion, and he looked up and said after a bowl of wine: "Zhixing, as soon as the children arrive, it will be a lot of things." They want to be admitted to Shilahanlin, grandpa and I have to fight, and I don't have the kung fu to serve them! ”

"It's natural, you can't let them delay your self-sufficiency." Han Xiufeng looked back at Pan Erhe who was squatting in the corner of the wall to eat, put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Second master, I will go to the Ministry of Officials to confess after I finish the seal, and there will be nothing to do after I finish the confession, my two brothers are fine, and if there is anything in the hall in the future, you can always tell me." ”

"That's also annoying," Fei Er Ye muttered: "In this way, early tomorrow morning, we will send Du San to the military department first, and after Du San's affairs are done, I will go to the provincial pavilion to do the seal for you, and by the way, I will introduce you to the first thing of the provincial pavilion, and then go to visit Master Ji together, and tell Master Ji about you taking over the matter of taking care of the guild hall for me, as long as he nods, the affairs of the guild hall can be handed over to you, and I don't have to worry about it in the future." ”

"Second master, don't be in such a hurry!"

"You don't worry, I'm in a hurry, no matter whether you can pass or not, you have to take the test again, since you have to take the test, you can't be unprepared."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

As soon as Han Si arrived in the capital, he turned himself into the first thing of the Chongqing Guild Hall, and Pan Er was overjoyed, secretly thinking that there was such a good thing in the world. The big head was equally happy, holding the bowl and smirking.

……

This supper was a great time for both the guests and the hosts, and it was eaten late.

Thinking that the West Wing also borrowed a member of the Ministry of Rites, Han Xiufeng also deliberately left some wine and food, but when Fei Er Ye was drunk, Wai Lang didn't come back, and it wasn't until he asked Fei Er Ye the next morning that he knew that there were always people coming to collect debts these days, and Wai Lang might not dare to come back.

After breakfast, let Pan Er and Datou stay to watch the house, and he and Du San followed Fei Er Ye to the military department.

Second Master Fei walked all the way to introduce the big and small matters to be paid attention to all the way in the capital, Han Xiufeng didn't dare to take it seriously, nodded frequently, and silently remembered it in his heart.

rushed to the military headquarters, stuffed a door bag for the officials guarding the door, waited for a stick of incense at the door, and a pen post came out of the yamen.

"Who did I say, it turned out to be Fei Er, what kind of wind blew you old thing!"

"I don't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I want to ask you for a favor."

"What's the busy?" The pen post looked at Han Xiufeng and Du San curiously.

Second Master Fei pulled him aside and pointed at Du San and said: "This kid is the president of Chongqing Zhentai who came to fill the vacancy, he was born in Wuju, and he has been in Chongqing Town for three years. Sixth Master Ba, I bother you to help me see if I can help him make up for his shortcomings. ”

Ba Liu looked at Du San, turned around and said, "Fei Er, you didn't come to the capital on the first day, you should understand the rules of the yamen." ”

"Whether there is oil and water in the green camp, others don't know, you Ba Liuye can't be clearer. Besides, this kid is just a thousand names, not to mention that he can't get oil and water, and he doesn't even have money, what do you let him do to honor you? Second Master Fei stuffed the remaining door bag into the hands of Sixth Master Ba, and said meaningfully: "Sixth Master, you didn't recognize me on the first day, we have known each other for so many years, who have you seen me help find a way?" ”

Thinking that Fei Erye was almost stupid when he read, and people in their fifties were still thinking about Zhongjin Shi Lahanlin, Ba Liu couldn't help but joke: "Isn't it today, anyway, why did you suddenly open up this old thing!" ”

"What tricks to open, I have to do it as a last resort."

"What's the last resort?"

"Haven't I been helping to take care of the Chongqing Guild Hall, this kid is from Chongqing Town, he is penniless, not only does he live for nothing, but he also eats for nothing. I can't even manage myself, how can I manage him? As the head of the guild hall, I can't drive him away, let alone watch him starve to death at my place, you help, it's okay, think of a way to help him make up for the shortcomings, let him get out of the house early! ”

The military department is not as good as the official department, and the appointment of generals, admirals, and general soldiers is appointed by the emperor of the military aircraft department, and most of the military attachés such as deputy generals, guerrillas, capital divisions, garrisons, and thousand generals are selected by governors and governors, and the governors decide to submit them to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Military Affairs for the record. In short, all the people who came to the military department to fill the vacancies were poor ghosts.

Ba Liu believed in Fei Erye's words, and even more in Fei Erye's character, and said helplessly: "Okay, who made me owe you a personal favor." ”

"Thank you."

"It's better not to talk about it than to talk about it." Ba Liu patted Second Master Fei's arm, and immediately turned back to Du San and said, "Since you have the guarantee of Chongqing Zhentai, it is not difficult for you to make up for this shortage, and you have brought all the official documents and the survey, right?" ”

"It's all with you, it's all on your body."

"Just take it with you, come in with me."

"Huh!"

……

Seeing that Du San followed Ba Liu into the military department like this, Han Xiufeng was really a little envious.

Second Master Fei pulled his sleeve, squatted down in a leeward place as if asking for food, looked at the lobby of the military department from afar and said lightly: "Zhixing, don't look at Du San's lack of good supplements, but there is nothing to envy." In recent years, the world has not been peaceful, there are foreigners outside, there are Guangxi bandits inside, and he has no money to do, and eighty percent can't make up for any shortcomings, and he will really be sent to Guangxi to quell the chaos. ”

Han Xiufeng nodded: "That's right, there's nothing to envy." ”

Second Master Fei sighed lightly, and said: "I thought about it, it's really not easy for you to make up for this shortage, if you donate a seventh, sixth, even if you can't make up for the shortage for a while, you can make a little money go away, and you can first distribute it to the ministry to study for three years." Although there is no money to study and no cheap silver, no matter what you say, you can count half a Beijing official, not only can you receive a few taels of money from the end of the seal every month, but also make up for the shortage than others. ”

"Second master, it's not that I don't want to donate a bigger official, I can't afford to donate."

"So this thing is difficult to do, donate inspection can only make up for inspection, compared to the county, the main thin, the lack of inspection is a lot, but more than half of it is soil inspection, not to mention that there is not so much silver, even if you have silver, you can't make up for the lack of soil inspection."

"Second master, what do you mean by soil inspection?"

"Soil inspection is not only in Yunnan and Guizhou, but we also have in Sichuan, I remember that there seem to be several inspection divisions such as Mutuo, Water Lawn, Zhumukan, etc., but these inspections are local officials, and they are inherited by the father and the son. The local officials are inherited by the natives, and the full Han officials are not allowed to fill the position. ”

Han Xiufeng only knew that there were many deficiencies in patrol inspections before, but he didn't expect that more than half of them were local officials, so he couldn't help but ask with a bitter face: "Second master, according to what you always say, I really can't make up for this lack in three or five years?" ”

"Not necessarily, it depends on luck," Second Master Fei didn't want to pour cold water on him again, and turned around and smiled: "If you are lucky, you can make up for it in three or five months, and if you are lucky, you can even make up for a fat shortage." ”

"Don't be kidding, the officials who inspect the sesame seeds are not fat."

"Do you know what, not only do you have inspection divisions in the local area, but there are also inspection divisions in rivers and salt roads. As far as I know, there are seven river inspections in the Huaixu River, eight people in the Huaiyang River, and eight people in the Shandong River, Zhangwei River, Tianjin River, and Qinghe River. Second Master Fei smiled, and then said: "The river inspection and dredging embankment, that is, the river management and river work, do you say this is a shortage of fat?" The salt administration inspection is even more amazing, check the smuggled salt, inspect the salt field, if you are lucky enough to do the salt administration inspection, you can go to Lianghuai to take office, even if you are given a seven-grade county, don't change! ”
