Chapter 169: Master Li Hongfan

"My lord, these are the accounts of the Governor's Palace in recent years. [Fast update, refreshing website pages, few ads, no pop-ups, I like this kind of website the most, be sure to praise]"

The old man, who claimed to be the master of the Daling Provincial Governor's Mansion, carried several thick green booklets in his hand, and wrote a few black characters in the account books of the Daling Provincial Governor's Mansion. The skinny face had bags under his eyes that drooped to the ground, and he squeezed out a flattering smile.

The water flows low, and the people go high. The master doesn't seem to be willing to be satisfied with the status quo, since Chen Baichuan entered the Governor's Palace, he has been jumping around Chen Baichuan all the time, eager to serve tea and water, pinch his shoulders and beat his back. Everything, not enough.

Chen Baichuan said lightly, wanting to see the accounts of the Governor's Palace.

The master ran out of breath, and without the nod of Huang Shilong, the main master, he snatched the account books he held in his hand from the account office.

Chen Baichuan took the booklets handed by his master, and asked nonchalantly, "What's your name?" ”

The master just wanted to answer, but suddenly understood the meaning of Chen Baichuan's words. Master Chen, this is to promote yourself. The old face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum instantly stretched out, and the excitement was overflowing. His voice trembled: "Lord Qiyu Chen, the lowly name is Li Hongfan. ”

Li Hongfan was also a famous talent back then, but he suffered from his family's circumstances, and in the end he ended up unappreciated and depressed. In the end, in order to make a living, he had no choice but to take refuge in the Governor's Mansion and became Huang Shilong's guest. And today's status of this master is the position where Li Hongfan climbed up with all his intrigues and tricks.

It was only when he sat in the position of the master that Li Hongfan realized that the huge governor's palace was only famous, and Huang Shilong's power had been hollowed out early. Li Hongfan's intuition told him that he could not speculate on who had stripped Huang Shilong of power.

Therefore, even if he has the answer in his heart over the years, he has pretended to know nothing.

One is to save his life, and the other is that he knows that one day the officials of Chen Du will finally set their eyes on this strange land, and then he will have the opportunity to win the credit of confession.

And the opportunity to get that credit seems to be at hand.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Hongfan still suppressed his desire for power. That person has been operating this land for too many years, and before he is completely sure, Li Hongfan doesn't want to reveal too many things. After all, there will always be a chance, and his life is only once.

Chen Baichuan is so young, so young that Li Hongfan doesn't dare to put the treasure on him. In addition to being young and energetic, there are other bad meanings, such as innocence and recklessness.

Chen Baichuan opened the account books, glanced at them a few times, and the fonts similar to small letters were densely distributed on the yellowed paper, and he felt his head hurt when he thought of looking at these account books.

However, according to my own understanding, these thick pamphlets could not hold the expenses of the entire Governor's Palace for several years. And Li Hongfan's appearance didn't seem to be fooling and deceiving himself, Chen Baichuan's curiosity was suddenly aroused: "I'm afraid the expenses of the Governor's Mansion for a few years are more than that, right?" ”

Li Hongfan replied without thinking about it: "Lord Qiyu, this is because this account book uses a little trick that the dog has figured out. Although the dog does not learn and has no skills, he is deeply interested in arithmetic, and he has achieved some results after years of hard research. The little tricks of the village husband, please don't mind the adults. ”

Of course, Chen Baichuan wouldn't mind, but he didn't expect that in the process of encircling Li Hongfan, he seemed to find a piece of mathematical jade. Talent is the most important thing in the 21st century, and at the same time, it is also what Chen Baichuan urgently needs.

Chen Baichuan didn't want to end up in the same fate as Emperor Qinghua, who was far away in the sky, and burned his vitality to complete the governance of a country. Proper decentralization of power is a must, and as long as Chen Baichuan holds the most important part in his hands, it is enough.

"Well, that's good. Li Hongfan, where is your son now, and where is he? ”

Listening to the meaning of Lord Chen's words, it seems that he has a higher appreciation for Li Hongfan's son. His heart inevitably dimmed for a moment, but thinking that it was his own son who was appreciated, Li Hongfan was also relieved a lot.

He said: "Inuko is currently the bookkeeper of the Governor's Palace, adults don't look at him as a small bookkeeper, in fact, his ability is not small." When he went to the account room to get the account books, he heard that it was Lord Chen who asked for them, and the dog did not hesitate to rummage through the cabinets to find out these account books. He also insisted on coming to see the demeanor of the adults with the next one, but he was afraid that he would disturb Lord Chen, so he didn't dare to let him come. ”

For the sake of his son's future, Li Hongfan put away his cautious face and praised his son endlessly. Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, Li Hongfan has a thief's eyebrows and rat eyes, but he didn't expect that he could be "brave" for the sake of his children, and he was not afraid of the endless stream of words that would cause him discomfort.

In fact, as long as it is a real talent, Chen Baichuan will invite him to the Chen Mansion if he begs. If it's just mediocrity, then I'm sorry.

However, at this time, Chen Baichuan had the intention of cultivating his own team, and Li Hongfan seemed to be a good candidate. His background in Daling Province is too thin, and he needs a shrewd and capable figure like Li Hongfan, who also has his own desires, to form the formation of the interest gang around Chen Baichuan, the Lord of the Imperial Mission. Because of this relationship, even if Li Hongfan's son's qualifications can't make him happy, he will perfunctory him in a position that is neither high nor lower than that of real power.

Chen Baichuan smiled and said: "If it is as you say, then I will snatch love with a knife and let your son follow me." ”

"Thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace."

Li Hongfan's head was firmly knocked on the floor several times, and if it weren't for the thick skin of the old man, he might have broken his head.

Chen Baichuan surprised him more than that, Chen Baichuan turned his head and said to Huang Shilong, who had been standing silently beside him: "Lord Huang, is there still a good vacancy in Daling Province?" According to Li Hongfan's talent, it cannot be placed only in a small mansion. ”

When Huang Shilong heard this, he glanced at Li Hongfan deeply, and there was no resentment or contempt, but pity. The latter lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into Huang Shilong's eyes. It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I'm a little guilty about Huang Shilong.

"Lord Chen, the county order of Tingfeng County is mediocre and incompetent, and he has just been removed from his post by order of His Majesty King Chen. For this reason, the position of this prefectural order is also vacant, and if 'Lord Li' is willing to condescend, it is a good choice. ”

Of course, Li Hongfan will not refuse this pie that fell from the sky, you must know that the power in the hands of this master of the Governor's Mansion is almost non-existent, and it is not an official position recognized by Chen Guo.

"Thank you Lord Chen for your promotion, and thank you Lord Huang."

Chen Baichuan waved his hand and said, "No need to thank you, let's call the county officials of Daling to come in, they will all be colleagues in the same province in the future, it's good to get to know each other." ”

"Yes." (To be continued.) )
