Chapter 16: Idols
The "Advisory Committee" located in Yinwan Hutong, the inner street of Chongwenmen, has always been the favorite yamen of low-level and idle sects. The "advisory committee" has a very low tone, and only one or two errand officers are placed at the door, and as long as the identity of the yellow ribbon is determined and a "registration" is made on the "guest book", people will be let in.
Yellow ribbon is in the "advisory board", and there will be tea and snacks to entertain; The "commissioner" or the secretary below is empty, and he is willing to accompany the yellow belt to chat nonsense. So much so that some yellow ribbons regard the "advisory committee" as a teahouse, and sometimes a few yellow ribbons make an appointment and sit together in the "advisory committee", bragging and fart, and can soak for most of the day.
Of course, in the "advisory board", not all places where the yellow ribbon goes; Not all people are willing to perfunctory with them. "Chairman" Guo Songtao never paid attention to the yellow belt. However, there is no yellow belt who is not interesting and dares to provoke Guo Yunxian.
In any case, Huang Ribbon has all kinds of situations in the "Advisory Committee", and there are annoyances on the way. Han Zhan Kedao mentioned this matter more than once, saying that the "advisory committee" is an important place in the country, and it is really not solemn for the clans to be in such a situation, and he asked the court to issue an edict to strictly prohibit it.
The queen mother of the two palaces asked Guo Songtao what she meant, but Guo Yunxian, who was tall on the cliff, said that "there is no obstacle at all", and the queen mother of the two palaces had no choice but to give up. When the yellow ribbons heard the news, they all said that Guo Yunxian was difficult to get close to on the surface, but in fact, "he was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and he was really a good person", and they had a better impression of Guan Beizi, Chairman Guo and the "Advisory Committee".
In the past few days, the "advisory committee" has suddenly taken off the border and has no official business. Don't talk about ordinary clans. The prince didn't give it in. However, the yellow ribbons did not think of it as a pestle. On the contrary, they were elated, saying that the "advisory committee" was "doing big things behind closed doors", and this "big thing" was to prepare for the distribution of the first phase of the "Feng'en Fund". Everyone has to keep their eyes open, these days, if Guan Beile "sight department" is to come to "paint" -- today's "painting line", tomorrow will be able to receive money!
Therefore. Although they could not enter the "advisory committee", a group of yellow ribbons were either "encamped" in a nearby teahouse, or carried bird cages, and walked around the door of the "advisory committee", their eyes fixed on the mouth of the alley, eagerly looking forward to the appearance of Guan Beile's honor guard.
This time, the yellow belts really didn't guess wrong.
Guan Zhuofan came out of Emperor Kazukura and went straight to Yinwan Hutong. As soon as his guard of honor entered the mouth of the alley, he saw from a distance that there were 100 people gathered at the door of the "advisory committee." Facing the direction of the mouth of the alley, there were bursts of cheers.
Guan Zhuofan frowned. Stop the guard of honor and tell Túrin to see what is going on.
After a while, Túrin reported: "Master, that's a group of yellow belt clans, saying that they are waiting to receive money." ”
Guan Zhuofan understood, angry, and funny, thought about it, gave two orders, and the honor guard continued to move forward.
The guard of honor did not march all the way to the gate of the "Advisory Committee", but stopped a few feet away from the gate. The pedal was put down, Guan Zhuofan lowered his head and bent over, and got out of the car.
As soon as Guan Beile appeared, cheers immediately rang out. He straightened up, smiled and clenched his fists, and made a square. The cheers immediately rose to a higher level, mixed with enthusiastic applause.
Túrin opened the way in front, and the yellow belts automatically gave way to it, Guan Zhuofan didn't speak, with a smile on his face, while arching his hands, he walked forward slowly. I went up the steps, and before entering the door, I turned around and made another quadrangle. The cheers were so loud that they shook the eardrums, almost knocking down the eaves of the "advisory committee" door.
Guan Belle turned to enter, the door shut, and the cheers came and went, and after a long time, they completely stopped.
Ahem, this is an idol.
Guan Zhuofan and Guo Songtao greeted each other, and after a little warmth, two committee members came over with two thick stacks of documents, one for the "Feng'en Fund Phase I" and the other for the "Beijing-Shanghai Line".
Guan Zhuofan first looked at the "Feng'en Fund Phase I". Although the first phase of the "Feng'en Fund" is trivial, it is not complicated, and it is clearly organized, and Guan Zhuofan did not spend much time reading it. He picked up the pen, signed his name, used the seal, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can go out and tell the yellow ribbons, please go back and sleep well today, and come over tomorrow to get the money." ”
Guo Songtao and several committee members laughed.
Guan Zhuofan's main energy is spent on the "Beijing-Shanghai line".
He watched it very carefully, and when it was time for lunch, he only looked at a small half, and then prepared two small dishes from the small kitchen of the "advisory committee" at random, and Guo Songtao ate two of them, and continued to "read the draft".
It wasn't until the end of the application that I finished reading it all.
Guan Zhuofan let out a long breath, muttered for a while, and then signed and sealed.
After the "painting line" was completed, Guan Zhuofan pushed the document to Guo Songtao, and said with a smile: "Yunxian, from today on, China can be regarded as 'entering a new era'!" ”
To tell the truth, the moment Guan Zhuofan "groaned", Guo Songtao became nervous inexplicably; Guan Zhuofan finally "painted", and he was relieved. When he heard Guan Zhuofan's "novel" metaphor, he became excited again and said: "Yes, Guo Songtao is fortunate to follow Lord Belle, and I hope that the road will be blue and open up a new world for China!" ”
Guan Zhuofan nodded and said, "Yunxian, what you said is good! ”
He pondered for a while and said: "The matter of the 'Feng'en Fund' will be officially announced today, and the matter of the 'Beijing-Shanghai Line' will be pressed first, and then I will wait for Ming'er and my share of the excerpt to restore the Beijing staff to the Lu, and then talk about it." ”
Guo Songtao understood and said: "Yes, in this way, there will be much less hustle and bustle on the road." ”
Guan Zhuofan smiled and said, "On the road, what is the situation now?" ”
Guo Songtao said: "The 'Beijing-Shanghai Line' passes through the provinces, and there are movements, and they all entrust the provincial officials to prepare for 'fighting'. Moreover, it is said that the big guys will sign together to strengthen their momentum. The excerpts of attacking the railway's 'several harms' and 'few indispensables' are actually ready, just waiting for you to 'draw the line', officially announced, and then rush up. ”
Guan Zhuofan "snorted" and said, "What else is 'a few harms' and 'how many can't'?" ”
Guo Songtao said: "Yes, or what are the 'few disadvantages' and 'several disadvantages', they are all the same. Before the fold was handed over, some words had already flowed out. Many of these theories are conjecture and ridiculous, and there are many people who don't know what a railway is. ”
Guan Zhuofan smiled slightly and said, "This can also be regarded as 'building momentum'." ”
Guo Songtao smiled: "Yes, but it's not a bad thing for us to leak my bottom in advance." ”
After a pause, he continued: "The most energetic one of them is called Xu Yingxiang, who is from Hanlin Academy, well, he is from Jiangsu. ”
Jiangsu? Damn, Lao Tzu's base, so ironic?
