Chapter 372: The Fox Fake Tiger

The carriage is leisurely, smooth and brisk, the summer heat is coming, inevitably, in the carriage, there is a little more stuffiness, Han Rui held the fan, and diligently fanned Zheng Nao, shouting the cold and asking for warmth, it is definitely a classic image of a good man.

Enjoying this care and care, Zheng Naoyue was as tender as honey in his heart, sweet and silky, took a piece of handkerchief, gently wiped Han Rui's forehead, and said with a light smile: "Husband, what did you say to Master Yan that made him so happy, and even the works that he regarded as treasures did not hesitate to give them to you." ”

Touching the picture scroll in the corner of the carriage, Han Rui was a little overjoyed, Yan Lide's paintings, in the future generations, are priceless national treasures, even now, they are also rare treasures, and now they are in the bag, it takes no effort to get them, and they are a little proud, but they are not so forgetful, they smiled, and sighed lightly: "It's nothing, I just said something in my heart." ”

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a hundred schools of thought contended, between the various academics, there was no obvious distinction between superior and inferior, the peasant Mojia was a prominent scholar, and Luban was deeply respected by the world, but since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, after hundreds of years, Confucianism and Confucianism flourished, and the status of other sons and hundreds of schools of thought plummeted.

Confucianism, there is a kind of exclusivity, after dominating the court, it is the use of government decrees, deliberately suppressing other schools, formulating the hierarchy of scholars, farmers and businessmen, the family of scholars, most of them are scholars, but most of the scholars are Confucian children, they raise themselves very high, belittle others, imperceptibly, craftsmen and the like, naturally prejudiced by the world.

Just like the Yan brothers, if it weren't for their aristocratic status, no matter how talented they were, their reputation would not be obvious, at most they would have left a name and symbol, a simple example, the world knows that Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was formerly known as Daxing City in the Sui Dynasty, but it was Yu Wenkai who presided over the construction of Daxing City, and his life deeds can be found casually.

However, in the history of bridge construction, the Zhaozhou Bridge, which left a thick book and heavy ink, can be called a miracle, and its builder Li Chun is an outstanding bridge expert recognized by later generations, a master-level figure, and the technology is definitely no less than Yu Wenkai, or the Yan brothers, but in addition to the Zhaozhou Bridge and the name, what else did Li Chun leave?

In the feudal dynasty, such an outstanding figure as Li Chun was not valued by the world at all, and even left few traces in the history books, if it were not for the fact that 1,400 years later, the Zhaozhou Bridge still exists, I am afraid that future generations will not know that there was such a master back then, who created such a bridge miracle.

Moreover, skilled craftsmen like Li Chun definitely do not exist occasionally, there must be many more, but they are not known, but they are not as lucky as Yu Wenkai and the Yan family brothers, and they are listed in the history books, and they have to disappear quietly in the long river of history.

Fortunately, the official history of the Tang and Song dynasties did not record the names of these craftsmen, but in private writings or local chronicles, it will also be mentioned that the names of Li Chun, Bi Sheng, and these folk masters have been passed down to future generations in this way, but in the Ming and Qing dynasties, there seems to be no record of this.

Through comparison, it can be concluded that the social atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was open, and the status of craftsmen, even if it was not high, had not yet fallen to the point of being unwelcome, at least, officials with professional skills were still reused by the emperor, but perhaps some people were jealous in their hearts, and they should also be prepared to be ridiculed.

is to learn a lesson, the next day, Han Rui came to Taipingfang in a very low-key manner, there is no way, will be the supervisor, in charge of the government of civil craftsmen, the movement is definitely not small, the official office is placed in the imperial city, every day I hear the sound of knocking and knocking, I am afraid that the nearby departments have no heart to deal with official business.

Placed in Taipingfang, it is only separated from the Imperial City by Suzaku Street, there are not many residents in the square, and no matter how noisy and lively it is, it will not affect many people, of course, such as workshops such as training steel and calcining iron casting soldiers, it will definitely not be here, where it is, before he took over, Han Rui did not know.

Yesterday in the Yan family, I got Yan Lide's guidance, Han Rui also initially knew that the main work of the lieutenant colonel's office is to take charge of the boat army, ordnance, miscellaneous weapons, and the lieutenant colonel's order, which is responsible for management.

In Han Rui's view, the nature of the superintendent is similar to that of the national construction company in later generations, and when he gets the instructions from above, he immediately mobilizes people, recruits craftsmen, conscripts, and completes tasks, and then disperses, and the officials who will be superintendent are responsible for organizing and coordinating arrangements, of course, sometimes, they also have to act as designers, supervisors, and so on.

There is no way, the ancient social division of labor is naturally not as clear as modern and cannot be changed, so it can only be used to, Han Rui pondered, looking at the official office in front of him, blue bricks and gray tiles, simple style, very simple and unpretentious, this is an inevitable thing, after all, it is just an official office at the level of the secretary of the superintendent, if the building is more gorgeous than the three provinces and six departments, and the inner garden of the forbidden palace, it is a sin to exceed the etiquette system.

After making an appointment, Han Rui didn't have to worry, he was wandering outside the General's Supervision Office, causing misunderstanding, and only after watching for a while, Yan Lide's car arrived, the embroidered curtain was rolled up, he leaned out, smiled, and greeted him friendly: "Fu Jie, come to my car, follow me." ”

Han Rui responded, jumped out of his carriage, ordered the servants to wait here, and was not polite, climbed into the carriage next to him, sat with Yan Lide, and said with a smile: "If you touch the light of Master Yan, you can also be a fox and a fake tiger." ”

Yan Lide smiled and said nothing, he originally had such a thought, showed his identity, and entered the general as a prison unimpeded.

Seeing that the top boss is coming, the officials who will be the supervisors up and down naturally do not dare to slack off, and they come out to greet each other, in fact, the chief officer commutes to work normally, and the subordinates can salute when they see it, there is no need to be so grand, but Yan Lide is also a waiter in the Ministry of Works, and he mostly stays in the Ministry of Industry on weekdays to deal with political affairs, and only when he is inspecting, he will come, and now he suddenly appears, and everyone naturally thinks that this time is the same.

It has been a practice throughout the ages that Shangguan came to inspect, as a subordinate, who was not trembling, sprinkling water and sweeping the floor to show respect, lest the greeting be inconsiderate, which would make Yan Lide angry, and wear small shoes, especially a department like Jiang Zuo, who is responsible for the civil engineering construction of the world, which annoyed Yan Lide, and sent him to a place with poor mountains and bad waters, and built a small bridge, then he wanted to cry without tears.

After all, "Yan Dajiang" is in charge of large and small projects, and there are many officials who will be supervisors, and there are also twenty or thirty young eunuchs, cheng, chief bookkeepers, orders, etc., as for the scribes, needless to say, hundreds and dozens are very normal. Accustomed to such a scene, Yan Lide coped with it easily, waved his hand and smiled: "No need to be polite, come and get to know, your new colleague, Lieutenant Colonel Ling Han Rui." ”

"I've met all my colleagues, it's the first time I've arrived, and I'll take care of you in the future." Han Rui said, polite and smiling, hoping to leave a good impression on everyone.

"That's a natural ......" A group of officials are very face-saving, and they will be introduced by Yan Lide, who is the supervisor, who dares to speak against it in person, even if they have any strange thoughts, they can't show it.

There will be four people, the supervisor in charge, the two chief bookkeepers, the officials in charge of the project, the grain, the food, these are the superiors, the rest, the left school order, the right school order, the Zhen official order, is the same level, the order under the order, is the lower official, they in turn, want to give Han Rui a gift, the lieutenant colonel signed, there are three adjutants, all present.

When they came up to salute, they were a little reluctant, Han Rui noticed it, and vaguely understood their thoughts, after all, the original lieutenant colonel Ling Zhishi, the most promising to take over, was one of them, and now suddenly an airborne soldier came, sitting in the position of the lieutenant colonel order, and they felt a little pimple in their hearts, which was very normal.

It seems that the first thing to do when he takes office is to resolve their grievances, or to entrap one or two of them, otherwise, if the three of them collude and disobey the yang, then it will be difficult to carry out their own work, Han Rui secretly thought in his heart, but he was very enthusiastic on the surface, not hypocritical, but mature.

Quite satisfied with such a scene, Yan Lide looked left and right, and asked casually, "Liben...... Young Eunuch Yan, can you do it? ”

"Handling official documents ...... in the office"

Under normal circumstances, unless there is a major project, Yan Lide rarely comes to be a prisoner, and the things in the prison will be a young eunuch, that is, Yan Liben is responsible, although the two are brothers, but Yan Liben's talent is definitely not inferior to Yan Lide, so everyone is convinced, and there is no slightest opinion.

Yan Liyan nodded and said with a smile: "Well, Fu Jie, come with me, after meeting Liben, it can be regarded as officially taking office." ”

Han Rui responded, under the complicated gaze of everyone's eyes, followed Yan Lide, walked towards the yafang, and slowly weighed the pros and cons in his heart, with the Yan family brothers taking care of him, he would naturally be better off in prison, but if he didn't do anything, I am afraid it would be difficult to be convincing, if he had the mentality of getting by and messing around, he definitely didn't have to care about other people's opinions.

But Han Rui, who was already interested in officialdom, naturally would not do this, and his mind was full of thoughts and carefully considered countermeasures......

Yan Liben's yafang, on the east side of the official office, is like an attic, relatively outside, built extremely elegantly, but the inside of the yamen is quite simple, a few curtain seats, has been damaged, and it is also a fourth-grade official, Yan Liben's yafang is very ordinary, similar to the outside officials, nothing more than a few feet spacious, and the copywriting is piled up more.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, the officialdom of the era of the Revolution was mostly characterized by such characteristics, how to be luxurious and comfortable at home, greedy for enjoyment, that was their own business, but when they arrived at the office of the yafang, they were all thrifty, but it was difficult to maintain, after a few decades, two or three generations of emperors, such a hard and simple style of work, would inevitably be wiped out, and even, seeing the administrative buildings, dilapidated and tattered, the reaction of the people was not that the officials were as clean as water, but that they were greedy for money.

Han Rui thought about it, but Yan Lide shouted: "Liben." ”

"Brother is here, wait a while, wait for me ......"
