Chapter 448: Three Fires for the New Official
After returning from Jiangzhou, Chen Qiao informed Guan Shiqi of the good news and asked him to wait patiently for the news. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoWho knows, who knows that within a few days of coming back from Jiangzhou, the appointment of the county lieutenant arrived, not Guan Shiqi, but Zhang Baoer, or Gao Wenju personally announced it.
Hearing this news, Chen Qiao even couldn't believe his ears.
Perhaps because he felt a little sorry for Chen Qiao, Gao Wenju took the initiative to go to Chen Qiao's door without waiting for Chen Qiao to come to him after announcing his appointment.
"Gao Changshi, what the hell is going on?" Because of the resentment in his heart, Chen Qiao spoke quite politely.
"It's the first time I've encountered such a strange thing in Jiangzhou all these years!" Gao Wenju sighed and said: "Lord Assassin Shi and Master Bie Jia both proposed to let Zhang Bao'er be the lieutenant of Qucheng County, although I strongly recommended Guan Shiqi, but in the end they were vetoed by the two of them!" ”
"Could it be that Zhang Bao'er has hands and eyes to the sky and bought the two adults?" Chen Qiao also felt strange when he heard it.
"I don't think so!" Gao Wenju shook his head and said, "There have been people who have done this before, but no one has ever succeeded. Even if he could buy one of them, it would be impossible to buy both. But somehow, the two adults, who have always been at odds, seem to have a tacit understanding this time, not only agreeing to Zhang Baoer to be the county lieutenant of Qucheng, but also forcing me to announce the appointment. You must know that in the past, such an appointment was just sent an official document, and no one would be sent to announce it at all, which is really strange. ”
"Can't even Lord Changshi see through it?" Chen Qiao said with a bitter face.
The facts can't be changed, Chen Qiao planted it this time, he really wanted to know how he planted it, so he admitted it so inexplicably, he really couldn't swallow this breath.
Gao Wenju said helplessly: "I asked the two adults separately, they usually don't hide this kind of thing from me, who knows that this time, the two of them are like a good discussion, they are silent, and they don't know why they are not thorough, I don't know why!" ”
After sending Gao Wenju away, Chen Qiao found Chen Shuren again.
After listening to Chen Qiao's narration, Chen Shuyi smiled and said: "That's right, the driving force here is none other than this Zhang Bao'er, we all underestimate him." ”
"Uncle Cousin, my nephew would like to hear about it!" Chen Qiao said humbly.
Chen Shuyi analyzed: "As soon as this Zhang Baoer arrived in Qucheng, I felt that this person was not simple! He designed to capture the five immortals in the clouds, the purpose of which was to enter the county government. When Zheng Muye and Cheng Qingquan were courting him, he didn't offend anyone, and he became a deputy to catch fast. He took advantage of the Gao family's affairs to not only become an official catcher, but also established a prestige in the catch. ”
What Chen Shuren said, Chen Qiao knew, and he couldn't help but nod his head.
Chen Shuyi continued: "I heard that Zhang Baoer and Zhao Langzhen have a close relationship, Cheng Gui's death and Zhao Langzhen's head hunting must have been single-handedly facilitated!" If I am not wrong, Zhang Bao'er will be the county lieutenant, and he has long been in his plan. Guan Shi is whimsical, but he is actually not Zhang Baoer's opponent at all! ”
"How is this possible?" Chen Qiao felt a little incredible: "You said that Cheng Gui's death and Zhao Lang's real head hunting were caused by him, and he also said the past." But he was also premeditated as a county lieutenant, this may be a fluke, even Gao Changshi said that no one can say that he can assassinate Lord Shi and Master Don't drive at the same time! ”
"Gao Changshi?" Chen Shuyi said disdainfully: "Gao Wenju can only speculate and drill camps, what does he know?" Everyone knows that Lord Thorn Shi and Master Don't Drive have always been at odds, if Zhang Baoer hadn't persuaded them, how could the two of them have such a tacit understanding as they do now? can convince the two of them at the same time, it can be seen that Zhang Baoer's energy is completely beyond our imagination! ”
Chen Qiao was silent.
Chen Shuyi glanced at Chen Qiao and said meaningfully: "I have advised you a long time ago, let you watch from the sidelines, and don't get involved in Guan Shiqi's affairs, but you didn't listen to me, now you can see some clues!" ”
Chen Qiao opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't say anything.
"Listen to me!" Chen Shuyi admonished: "Zhang Bao'er is not something you can deal with, even if such a person can't be a friend, don't be an enemy." If I'm not mistaken, the county lieutenant is just a stepping stone for him, and it won't be long before the county magistrate is also in his pocket! ”
After listening to Chen Shuzhi's analysis, Chen Qiao's face showed a look of horror.
Looking at the back of Chen Qiao's departure, Chen Shuyi couldn't help but sigh, Chen Qiao obviously didn't listen to his words, and he would definitely suffer a big loss in the future.
Zhao Langzhen had already gotten the news, so Zhang Baoer became a county lieutenant, and he didn't think it was strange. Luo Lin and Qin Zhuai knew that Zhang Bao'er was a county lieutenant, and they were happier than anyone else, they were the first to recognize Zhang Bao'er, and now Zhang Bao'er was a county lieutenant, proving that their vision was not wrong.
Zhang Baoer became a county lieutenant, and the hardest hit was Guan Shiqi. first caught the head, then the county lieutenant, and the two excellent opportunities passed by him, which made Guan Shiqi slump, and seemed to be several years old.
It is said that the new official took office three times, although Zhang Baoer only became the lieutenant of Jiupin County, he was no exception.
Zhang Baoer's first fire burned to the third class of the county government.
The county officials are generally divided into three classes and six rooms. The third class refers to the three classes of soap, strong and fast. The soap squad is in charge of internal service, and the strong squad and the fast squad are jointly responsible for arrest and security. The six rooms are the offices of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers. Among them, the third class is under the jurisdiction of the county lieutenant.
On the first day of taking office, Zhang Bao'er gathered together more than 40 officials under his control, such as the soap class, the Zhuang class, and the fast class, as well as the jailers, menzi, and wenpo, and clearly announced that from now on, no one was allowed to fish and eat the people, and no one was allowed to accept bribes in any name. Otherwise, they will be removed from the county office.
As soon as Zhang Bao'er finished announcing, all the officials were in an uproar, how could there be any yamen officials in the world who didn't collect money, just relying on that meager salary, if they didn't earn some extra income, who would come to be a government servant.
However, Zhang Baoer's following sentence made everyone shut their mouths: "If you can enforce the law impartially and not oppress the people, you will add ten taels per person when you settle the silver every month!" ”
The officials have calculated an account in their hearts, Qucheng is a poor place, and accepting bribes is not every day, even if the officials show their powers, it is impossible to have ten taels of silver per month, and they will have a bad reputation. If you do what Zhang Baoer asks, you can easily get more than 100 taels of silver in a year, why not do this kind of good thing?
Zhang Baoer asked the officials not to oppress the people, and Zhao Lang really agreed with it from the bottom of his heart, but he gave each person ten taels of silver per month, but he was quite complaining.
Zhang Bao'er listened to Zhao Langzhen's words, and said with a smile: "Zhao Zhutou, the management of the county government is different from that of the army back then. There are military orders in the army, and the constraints on the soldiers are tight, and in addition, you can also use the feelings of your comrades-in-arms to contact your feelings. But the officials are different, they have done this since ancient times, they see real benefits, if I cut off their financial routes, and do not compensate them, who will want to do it? After all, they have to support their families! ”
