Chapter 312: Return to Huangzhuang
The Shaofu Supervisor was one of the five eunuchs established when the Great Song Dynasty established the country, but because the power was compressed too much, the internal structure was also reduced a lot, for example, before Li Zhang came, the Shaofu Supervisor was only one main eunuch, and below were two Cheng and two masters, and there was no permanent Shaojian until Li Zhang's arrival to fill this vacancy.
Although Liu E did not arrange any specific affairs for Li Zhang, after all, he is the second person in the Shaofu Prison, so he also has his own separate office, and the reporter Zhang Lang took Li Zhang to familiarize himself with the environment in the Shaofu Prison, and then he came to the official room dedicated to the Young Eunuch and said: "Young Eunuch, this is the place where you usually handle official business, and there is a small bedroom in it, which can be used for resting at ordinary times." β
Li Zhang came in and looked at this office, although the young government supervisor didn't want to see him, but he didn't dare to do anything in his treatment, at least the environment of this office was not bad, which made him nod with satisfaction and said: "Yes, Zhang Lushi, what are you mainly responsible for in the prison?" β
From the conversation just now, Li Zhang has learned that this Zhang Lang is just a small person in the Shaofu Prison, and he should not be very popular, because when he took himself to familiarize himself with the environment of the Shaofu Prison just now, the other officials saw Li Zhang and dodged one after another, probably knowing that the main prison did not want to see Li Zhang, so the officials below did not dare to get too close to him, and Zhang Lang was obviously forced by the people above, and when he walked over, many people were snickering behind his back.
"I don't have any specific things, I usually do whatever I am told to do." I saw Zhang Lang smile with some embarrassment at this time, he was actually a miscellaneous person in the Shaofu Prison, and no one else was willing to go to receive Li Zhang this time, so he was forced out by his superiors.
Li Zhang didn't say anything when he heard this, in fact, he had already guessed it before, but although this Zhang Lang is young, he is very polite to others, and he should be well educated, and he entered the officialdom at such a young age, it should not have passed the imperial examination, it is likely to be the shadow of the family, but since he has a backer in the family, why is he bullied? There's definitely some story in that.
However, Li Zhang and Zhang Lang met for the first time after all, so it was inconvenient to inquire too much, and now after he was familiar with the environment of the Shaofu Prison, he let the other party leave, and he himself did not stay in the Shaofu Prison for too long, and soon left here in a carriage, anyway, he just came to show his face, and it is not certain that he will not come later.
Li Zhang did not go home, but took a carriage to the money store, compared to the first opening of the deserted, but now the money store is every day, the money store is full of people who save money and withdraw money, for this money store also bought the faΓ§ade on both sides, opened three times more counters, but still can not meet the demand, every day to the hall is crowded with people, and even there are ticket sellers who queue up for people, for which Li Zhang and Huozi are also discussing the opening of another branch in the city to relieve the pressure.
"Big brother, didn't you go to the Shaofu Prison to take up your post, why did you come back so early?" Li Zhang went to the money store to find Huozi, but the other party asked with some surprise when he saw him, he thought that Li Zhang would not come today.
"It's just an idle job, just show up, how is the preparation of the branch, there are too many people outside, if you can't deposit and redeem because of the queue, I'm afraid it will make some guests dissatisfied." Li Zhang went directly to the topic at this time and asked, although the money bank occupies most of the share of the capital's banknotes, there are still a small number of Jiaozi shops that have survived tenaciously, so the money bank should not be too careless, so as not to let customers lose to these Jiaozi shops.
"It's almost ready, and now I'm discussing the matter of sending people with Ugly Niang and Douzi, and there are some details of some account transactions that need to be prepared, and it is estimated that it will be about the same in three or five days." Huozi immediately replied that not only the capital will open a branch, but also the surrounding Luoyang and other cities will also open branches, but the opening of a branch involves all aspects of the problem, and opening a branch in the capital first can also accumulate some experience for them.
Li Zhang also nodded when he heard this, the general direction of the money bank is in his hands, but he will still hand over some specific matters to Huozi and Douzi to do, so that the main purpose is to train them, after all, Li Zhang needs them to be able to stand alone in the future.
At this moment, I suddenly saw the ugly lady walk in, and when she saw Li Zhang, she immediately smiled and said, "Big brother is here, I also have something to tell you, the things you asked me to buy last time have been bought." β
Hearing the ugly girl's words, Li Zhang couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and asked eagerly: "Where is the thing, when can I see it?" β
"It's been sent to Zhuangzi in the west of the city, didn't you say that you would send it there after you bought it?" The ugly lady laughed again at this time, she didn't know why Li Zhang suddenly asked her to buy those things, but since Li Zhang commanded, she would naturally do her best to complete it.
The Zhuangzi in the west of the city is the original Huangzhuang that planted potatoes, Liu E promised Li Zhang, and after the potatoes were promoted, he would reward this Huangzhuang to Li Zhang, so later the Huangzhuang became Li Zhang's private estate, but the Zhuangzi was a little far away from the capital, and it took most of the day to ride a horse, so Li Zhang rarely went.
Hearing that the things had been sent to the manor, Li Zhang was also secretly happy in his heart, and he couldn't wait to go to the manor immediately, but he thought that there were still a lot of things on the side of the money bank, so he could only suppress this idea, and then the beans also came, so the four of them got together and had a small meeting, mainly to discuss the matter of the Beijing branch, after all, this is the first branch of the money bank, and there must be no mistakes.
In the next few days, Li Zhang also soaked in the money store all day long, and never went to the Shaofu Supervisor's side again, but the news about his transfer from the firearms supervisor to the Shaofu Supervisor also spread, and there were some inexplicable rumors as a result, which probably means that he has lost Liu E's favor, so he will be transferred from the firearms supervisor to the Shaofu Supervisor to take up an idle position, and there are even multiple versions, Li Zhang is too lazy to pay attention to this.
After a few busy days, the branch has been prepared, just waiting to choose an auspicious day to open, and Li Zhang finally took a day, called the wild dogs to beat the horse and gallop out of the city, and finally came to this private manor of his own in the afternoon, the tenants in it are now all his tenants, but the usual rent is still the same as before, anyway, Li Zhang does not point to this to make money, so the tenants are also very grateful to him.
There is Li Zhang's house in the manor, the original Zhou Lizheng has become Zhou's housekeeper, who is responsible for helping Li Zhang take care of this house, and collecting rent by the way, when Li Zhang is not there, this place is under his control, and the life is very leisurely, and when Li Zhang came here, Zhou's housekeeper also immediately took him to the warehouse, which was stacked with goods bought by the ugly lady from the Western Regions.
