Chapter 018: Unexpected Staff
"Oops! Everyone, please see: Dapeng rides the wind and travels 90,000 miles! When the wind stops, it can still be dusted but the water is clear, what kind of momentum is this? This poetry is extraordinary and can be written, and it is indeed a masterpiece!
That's great! Our generation is not as good as far away! It's better to go far! Wu Lang's spirit, I'm afraid that he is about to catch up with the ancient and the present, the first heroine of the world! Cui Shilian kept admiring!
Wu Yanzhi was shocked: "Don't praise Cui Gong so falsely, my aunt and grandmother are the first empress for thousands of years, and the Bodhisattva descends to earth!" What can we compare with ordinary people? ”
The crowd next to him also kept complimenting.
Wu Yanzhi was a little helpless, but he didn't expect that he would have a piece of waste paper for practicing calligraphy, but it would be praised by everyone. It seems that Li Bai's title of poet immortal is really not in vain!
At this time, Cui Shilian suddenly said something, which surprised Wu Yanzhi: "Wu Lang! I heard Li Gong say just now, you have recently made a copper and iron envoy! I don't know if my judges and inspectors have been selected?
If there is a shortage of people, my nephew Cui Yu can also be a patrolman, he doesn't want to return to his hometown as a candidate, and he always wants to get an errand as soon as possible! Please also ask Wu Lang to appreciate his face and give him a chance to try it out! ”
When Wu Yan heard this, he was stunned at first, damn! Cui Zhuangyuan, who was so awesome that day, is also going to serve under him? But that seems like a good thing.
He then nodded: "People haven't been chosen yet!" If you want to say that Cui Zhuangyuan is a patrol, it should be okay. It's just that the style of contemptible management is a little strict, I don't know if he can adapt to it? ”
"It's best to be strict! He's young, he's coming out on top, and he's a little fluttery! Recently, in the capital, I followed the children of some dignitaries and nobles, and mixed with those courtesans in Yanqingfang all day long.
His father entrusted him to me, and I had to be responsible for him. That's why I'm worried about something happening to him! Of course, it's great to have someone in charge of him. If it is convenient for Takero, I will personally bring him to see Takero in three days. By the way, I don't know where Wu Lang lives temporarily? ”
"I temporarily live in Daoguangfang Xuantian Temple, and in the morning three days later, Cui Gong brought him here!" Wu Yanzhi nodded lightly.
"Then thank you Takerou!"
Wu Yanzhi smiled secretly: He picks up girls all day long? This is also understandable, people have won the champion, you, who are uncles, are not allowed to relax and relax? Even if you were there back then and later, I'm afraid you have been to those places too, right?
……
A few people chatted a little gossip, and soon Gao Jifu came in outside to report: "Gong Li, sir, lunch has been prepared, and you can sit down!" ”
"Let's go, congratulations to Wu Lang on his ascension today, I'll wait for a few more drinks."
There is nothing to describe in this meal, it is nothing more than some chicken, deer, sheep and other mountain specialties, as well as rice wine, fruit wine brewed in the palace, and some rare meat sauces and jams on the market.
Wu Yanzhi likes to eat chili peppers and drink liquor, and there is definitely no one here. Therefore, no matter how good the wine and food are, he always feels that there is a little less taste.
After the meal, several people returned to the suite just now. Li Bochang arranged for someone to come in and leave the clan registration of Wu Yan's room. Then he said: "It's still early, I'm okay to wait for idleness, it's better to play a few promotion charts!" ”
Promotion chart? What game?
When Li Bochang opened the box on the table, he took out a large picture from it.
Wu Yan looked at it, this game is simple: on the promotion chart, the lowest is the village zheng, the highest is the Taishi, and some official positions have been added in the middle, which are slightly different from the actual official positions today, with a total of forty-nine official positions.
This thing must be just throwing the dice, deciding how many steps to take according to the size, it's all up to luck. Of course, if you can master the skill of throwing dice like the gambling king, and throw six points every time, it will be difficult to say.
"I didn't bring any money today, this ......" Wu Yan's way.
"It doesn't matter! It's hard to say who wins and who loses! I'll give Wu Lang a cushion first! Let's not play big, just one or two silver for each official position, just mean it. Play for an hour, go out of the imperial city, and find a place to drink at night! Li Bochang proposed, and no one objected.
One or two silver a position, it's not small. Wu Yanzhi is a high-ranking official whose product is the sixth grade and the ministry official is the fifth grade, and his material money is only 3.6 yuan a month. To exchange it for silver, it is only 4.5 taels.
Of course, this income does not include a month's worth of more than 10 stone of rice, more than 600 yuan of food, etc. (If this product reaches five grades, the food will have more than five dollars per month, and the difference is huge)
Everyone pushed Wu Yanzhi to throw it first, but he couldn't shirk it, so he took the lead in throwing the dice and started playing the game.
An hour passed quickly, Wu Yanzhi not only had prosperous official luck, but also barely got by with this gambling luck, and actually won nearly a hundred taels of silver!
……
In the evening, everyone gathered again in a wine shop called "Tianxiang Pavilion" in Daoguangfang, where Wu Yanzhi lived.
The private room is fifteen or sixteen square meters, and the floor-to-ceiling windows are only about a foot higher than the grass outside. Outside the window is a small rockery more than two zhang high, and several trickles gurgle down from the top of the mountain.
Next to the rockery is a dense cluster of small square bamboos, and as the sun sets, a few rays of sunlight pass through the bamboo forest and shine into the room.
Wu Yanyi looks at it, the environment is really good!
But without the machine, how did the water get to the top of the mountain? Wu Yanzhi has been thinking about it.
Everyone changed into civilian clothes, because high-ranking officials above the fifth grade were not allowed to enter the wine shops and markets at will.
The shopkeeper was extremely attentive to Li Bochang and personally arranged everything. Li Bochang nodded and said, "It's okay, you can arrange it quickly!" ”
"Good! The villain will go to arrange, and a few officials will take a break! He humbly retreated to the door, and then saluted again before turning and leaving.
Wu Yan looked at it, Li Bochang must be very familiar with this boss, he is also bold, he often goes in and out of wine shops, and he is not afraid of impeachment by Yushi.
That Cui Shilian had something to do and couldn't attend the party. Li Bochang called another person out, Wu Yan looked at it, this person was in his forties, about 1.8 meters, with fair skin, big shoulders and round waist, eyes like eagles, and he was very energetic.
"Yang Lang, this is Wu Lang Wu Yanzhi, the new Duke of Donglai County, the Dong Guan Lang Zhong and the copper and iron envoy, and the chief official of Shang Fang. Wu Lang, this is Yang Siqiao, the director of the Sigong Tainei Bureau! ”
Li Bochang introduced the two of them.
"See Wujun Gong for your humble position!"
"Brother Yang doesn't have to be polite!" Wu Yan looked at it, but it turned out to be a eunuch!
The wine and food were all ordered by Li Bochang himself! Wu Yan looked at it, but he ordered six or seven people. I couldn't help muttering in my heart: Does this old man still want to call someone to drink?
But until the feast began, no one came! But soon, he understood why he ordered so many drinks and dishes: Yang Siqiao was not polite to eat and drink, and one person would quickly finish eating the chicken!
The posture of drinking also made Wu Yanzhi admire. Directly replaced the wine glass with a large bowl, one bite is a bowl! Wu Yan looked at it, this person is afraid that one person can eat and drink for three people!
"Good wine! If you are in the palace, you don't dare to drink, and you only go out of the palace once in seven or eight days, and you can drink a few bowls, and you don't laugh! "He spoke very straight.
The other three here are all high-ranking officials above the fifth grade, where can the accountant drink more bowls of wine than him?
