The next day, when Liu Chan arrived here, Wang Erlang was still busy, seeing Liu Chan coming, he hurriedly bowed to meet him, Liu Chan smiled, and did not rush to ask him, directly found a place to sit down, and waited for Erlang to serve him a bowl of meat porridge with a good taste, then he ate it deliciously, I have to say, this meat porridge is really delicious.

Liu Chan was eating, and suddenly saw a young man who was eating with his head bowed not far away, he was stunned for a moment, and shouted, "Yuan Xun? ”

The young man who was eating raised his head, and also saw Liu Chan, the young man was slender, but his face was a little long, he looked a little handsome, smiling, very sunny, there was a feeling of spring breeze, the young man hurriedly stood up and walked to Liu Chan's side, the two smiled and greeted, and then sat down together.

There was still a person standing next to the young man, and he hurriedly beckoned him to sit down, and then introduced: "Wang Jun, this is the son of Sikong and my friend, called Liu Chan.... Liu Jun, this is called Wang Yuan, and he is my thief Cao...", after he introduced the two, Liu Chan smiled and nodded to the man, which can be regarded as acquaintance.

The two chatted happily for a long time, and the young man said with a smile: "Originally, it's been relatively busy these days, you don't know, this system is going to change, I heard that I have to go to school, and I'm helpless... It took me five years to get out of Taixue, and I have to continue my studies, by the way, why don't we go together... I've heard that you can have a good errand when you get out of school..."

Liu Chan hurriedly shook his head and said, "Forget it, I look like this, I can't even get into the school where I am too studied, let alone the school you are going to...", Liu Chan said, suddenly a little curious in his heart, he asked: "What does this school teach?" ”

"Don't be surprised, Xun Shangshu wants to set up such a school, and he will make the guard an official, and even set up a house to be responsible for... My father, I really want this position, so let me go to school to express my identification with the new system, alas, I am miserable...", the young man shook his head.

"Haha, Yuan Xun is also disgusted with going to school? No, when we went to school together, you were so positive. ”

"Liu Jun doesn't know, my father said that after the establishment of this school, it is very likely that the big sacrificial wine will be served by Man Chong, and he will serve as the big sacrificial wine, you can think about what our future days will be like..."

The two chatted for a long time, the young man and Wang Yuan left, Liu Chan also finished eating the meat porridge, and was about to go to Wang Erlang to ask, Wang Erlang was already standing beside him, and said with a smile: "Liu Jun, what you said yesterday, I thought about it for a long time after I went back, but I was afraid that I would not be talented enough to ruin Liujun's affairs, if Liu Jun didn't dislike it, I would be willing to help Liu Jun do things..."

Liu Chan was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, then I'll send someone to ask if there is a suitable courtyard around here, it's really not good, I'll go to the Yayang County and strive to build a compound around here, by the way, can you read and write?" Hearing Liu Chan's inquiry, Wang Erlang touched his head a little embarrassed and said, "I don't know much." ”

"No hindrance, no hindrance, I will send a slave at home to teach you to read, you can't read and write, because the stories you tell need to be written into books, memorized, and then told, and I will collect more stories for you to tell!" , Liu Chan sat down and commanded, Wang Erlang could only agree.

Liu Chan ordered a lot more, and then took out a voucher from his arms, handed it to Wang Erlang's hand, and said with a smile: "This is my voucher in Qianzhuang, you go to Qianzhuang later, you can take out this money, it's not too much, it's also my mind...", Wang Erlang This is not the first time he has encountered a voucher, and many diners have been willing to settle the bill with vouchers recently.

This has become a symbol of the status of the rich, bitter haha generally still uses copper coins, only this kind of rich and noble people, unwilling to bring too much copper coins, but want to take the money to go shopping, so that the voucher in Luoyang operation, Wang Erlang did not look at the amount of money recorded on the voucher, just kept thanking, this sent Liu Chan away.

After Liu Chan left, he looked at the credentials in his hand.

Looking at it like this, he was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the credentials almost fell out, 20,000 yuan, oh my God, 20,000 yuan, all the worries in Wang Erlang's heart dissipated instantly, and he clenched the credentials in his hand, and he made up his mind that he must serve Liu Jun well!!

In the evening, when Wang Erlang returned home, San Lang Wang Yuan was already waiting at home, and when he saw his brother coming back, he helped unload the goods again, and the two sat down, Wang Erlang took out the voucher and said with a smile: "Liu Jun is generous, I haven't reacted now...", Wang Yuan looked at the voucher in his hand, very calm, he said: "The young gentleman of the Sikong family, he is naturally generous." ”

"Also, I've inquired clearly, he's about to marry the daughter of the Taiwei family... The brother followed him, and that was a big deal. ”

The two talked for a long time, Wang Erlang was a little excited, and he asked with some curiosity: "The distinguished guest you invited today is also a big person?" Wang Yuan nodded, "That's my Shangguan, called Zhuge Ke, and he is also a great person, then Liu Chan has a good relationship with his cousin, and the two know each other, so I specially invited him over..."

"Thank you, thank you."

.........

When Zhuge Ke returned to the mansion, his father Zhuge Jin was obviously still angry, even when he was eating, he frowned, everyone in the family did not dare to speak, the atmosphere was a little silent, Zhuge Ke didn't know what was going on, after eating, Zhuge Jin sighed, and was about to get up and leave, Zhuge Ke hurriedly followed, and the two returned to the study.

"Father, what happened?"

"Alas....", Zhuge Jin sighed and said: "It's not a matter of more pawns, I don't mean that I am greedy for power, I just think I am more suitable for this position, I have served as a county lieutenant in the local area for many years, a county lieutenant, and even a lieutenant of Si Li, when I went to Xun Shangshu, Xun Shangshu said that the candidates had already been arranged, and I didn't need to work hard...."

"I went to visit Guo Shizhong again, I wanted to show him the many plans in my heart for the guard's house, but I couldn't even enter the gate of Guo Shizhong...", Zhuge Jin was in a very low mood, he had long complained about the local guard system, because he had been serving as a county lieutenant and county lieutenant in the local area for a long time, and he knew very well the current situation of the guard.

He thought about this for a long time, and now there are still a lot of documents in his study, all of which are his thoughts over the years, and after the news of the reform and change came out in the Shangshu Mansion, he took out his achievements over the years, but he didn't expect that people didn't take him seriously at all.

Zhuge Ke frowned and said, "Why don't you write a letter to your uncle, my uncle has such a close relationship with His Majesty..."

"No, I don't believe it, this official doesn't look at talent, but depends on relationship? Even though I don't have the talent of your uncle, I have been thinking about this matter for more than ten years, and I don't believe that anyone can do it better than me! Zhuge Jin said, and continued: "I'll go to find someone tomorrow, I won't believe it, don't go, help me sort out the paperwork." ”

The father and son sorted out Zhuge Jin's original documents overnight, most of which were cases, and there were many local information, as well as proposals, just imagine, etc., it can be seen that Zhuge Jin had indeed been thinking about these things a long time ago, and the two were busy until midnight, and then they fell asleep.

The next day, just in the early morning, Zhuge Jin left in a carriage, which was full of documents and materials he had prepared in these days.

He didn't go to the Houde Hall to find the Son of Heaven, although the Son of Heaven was likely to receive him, but Zhuge Jin still didn't want to go to the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven had a close relationship with his younger brother, Zhuge Jin didn't want to rely on his brother's relationship to complete his ambitions, he went to find a person that everyone didn't want to find, full of favor.

In his mansion, over the years, there have been no visitors, and even his subordinates dare not come to him, the key is that the temper of this person is too stinky, and the guests come, and the full favor will warn him, according to the Han law, the ministers can not form a party for personal gain, and when the subordinates came, he warned not to bribe, not to give gifts, not to flatter.

His cold appearance frightened away countless guests.

Zhuge Jin waited in horror, he didn't know if the servant of the criminal mansion would receive him, but he just waited for a while, and then a servant went out and invited him into the mansion, Zhuge Jin walked into the mansion, the mansion full of favors was still good, not as poor and simple as Zhuge Jin expected, but a little luxurious.

"Meet Manjun!"

"Hmm."

Man Pet nodded, let Zhuge Jin sit down, and then, it was a long time of silence, the two looked at each other, didn't say anything, no one spoke, Man Pet looked extremely cold, Zhuge Jin looked at him, wiped the sweat on his forehead, Man Pet was silent, he didn't know what to say, the atmosphere was very embarrassing, or Zhuge Jin broke this embarrassing situation.

"Manjun, that's the case, I heard about the innovation of the pawn, speaking of which, a long time ago, I had the idea of innovation for this pawn, I prepared a lot of paperwork, and Manzhong may help me take a look? If something is wrong, can you help me correct it? Zhuge Jin asked, and when he heard it, he nodded and agreed.

Zhuge Jin happily asked people to bring in the documents he had prepared and put them in front of Manzhong.

Man Pet picked it up and looked at it, Man Pet was still very serious, looking at it word by word, and he didn't feel troublesome, he looked at it for more than two hours, Zhuge Jin's legs were a little numb, Man Pet raised his head and said: "You think very well, a lot of proposals, earlier than Xun Jun, very good, in this regard, I have no way to advise or anything." ”

"That's... Manjun may help me send this document to the Houde Palace, so that Your Majesty can take a look, I heard that there is going to be a guard house, I want to try if I can serve as this servant, I am soft-spoken..."

"yes, okay."

Man Pet directly agreed, Zhuge Jin was overjoyed, he was ready to be bombarded out by Man Pet, but he didn't expect Ah, Man Pet agreed so quickly, Man Pet stood up and said: "I can't be alone, so let's do it, you follow me, let's go to the Houde Hall together, I think it is indeed very suitable for you to serve as this servant." ”

"Thank you, Man-kun!"
