Chapter 30: A Great Crisis
I thought that Zhou Zhixian was a matter of one sentence, but Sun Yuan waited in the study for a long time, and the tea was white, but there was no movement for half a day.
Seeing that half an hour had passed, Sun Yuan couldn't help but go out of the study and ask a servant.
"I really forgot that Sun Yuan, you have been waiting in the study." The official smiled and said, "The county lord just went to Yangzhou Mansion for important business." β
On the surface, although it looks polite, there is a hint of mockery in the smile.
Sun Yuan: "By the way, before Fang Cai County Zun went to Yangzhou Mansion, did he say anything about me?" β
The official shook his head: "No, who is the eldest master, he doesn't say, how can we ask." Perhaps, the county is busy with affairs and has forgotten about your affairs. β
Sun Yuan hurriedly asked again: "So, when will the county lord return to the government?" β
"I don't know about this, generally speaking, the eldest master goes to Yangzhou City, at least six or seven days, and at most ten days and a half months." The official said: "If you really have something important, you can ask the lord Bo, the matter of the county is explained, and all the affairs in the yamen are decided by the master of Lei." β
Sun Yuan chuckled in his heart and shouted: Oops!
He had a vague thought in his heart, Zhou Zhixian was deliberately avoiding himself. The question is, what can't be done in the magistrate of a county, and what else does it need to be difficult to do like this?
It seems that there is no use in waiting here any longer today.
Sun Yuan turned around and was about to leave.
The official called out Sun Yuan again: "Wait, I heard that Sun Yuan has become the chief of grain, hehe, I really want to congratulate you." It was about to be the day to escort the autumn grain, and Lord Bo said, as soon as I saw Sun Liangchang, I would let you go over and talk, so that I could discuss how to handle this mission. Chief Sun Liang, please! β
Just make a gesture of please, look at the appearance, if Sun Yuan doesn't go to see Lei Tai, don't think about leaving the county government today.
"How do I do this errand?" Sun Yuan sneered in his heart, not to mention that he is now a poor boy who is poor and white, even if he is rich and rich, he can't afford to escort autumn grain. Since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, many giants have been ruined because someone in the family held the position of grain chief.
In order to harm an ordinary farmer's child in my province, this Lei Tai actually promoted my Sun Yuan to the post of grain chief, which is a big deal. He doesn't see me, I'm going to find him for a reason! It's okay, and see him.
He nodded, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said gently: "There is Brother Lao leading the way." β
It is only a few steps from the Houya study to the main hall of Leitai, and it will be there in a moment. At the moment when he stood at the door of Leitai, Sun Yuan still had a trace of remorse in his heart: Sun Yuan, Sun Yuan, you were also a human spirit who had been rolling in the red dust for many years in your previous life, and you also knew that this kind of villain was the most offensive, so why did you want to tear your face directly with him when you signed up for the county test that day. This is probably because the body I crossed over was only eighteen years old, and when I was a teenager, my blood was strong, and it was inevitable that I had some temper.
But what can I do if I regret it now, and I have done it. Now there is a great danger of losing his head, but he can't panic. At this moment, no matter how panicked you are, you can't solve the problem.
took a deep breath, tried his best to calm his mood, and was about to push the door, when Lei Tai's voice came from inside: "Haha, I heard the magpie on the branch early in the morning, who am I, it turns out that Sun Liang has come over." Leitai has been waiting for you for a long time, please come in. β
Lei Tai seemed very enthusiastic today, seeing that Sun Yuan actually got up from his seat, enthusiastically helped him to sit down, looked at the tea again, and said a lot of affectionate words. If this situation falls into the eyes of people who don't know the inside story, they really think that Sun Yuan and him have been old friends for many years.
"Since Chief Sun Liang is here, let's make a long story short, this year's autumn grain collection of the imperial court will not accept silver. In this way, the manpower in the yamen is insufficient, and I have to ask talented and virtuous people in the local area to help, so I recommended you to the county. β
I don't think it's normal to think about it, but when I Sun Yuan is an ordinary farmer who has never seen the world, I set up a plan to harm me. But I don't want to, but I Sun Yuan has a modern soul in my body, and I have long known what is going on with the grain chief system that has been abolished for many years. Since you want to play tricks with me, if Sun Yuan is not cooperative, won't he disappoint the audience.
So, Sun Yuan pretended to be grateful and frightened, and said with red eyes: "The thunder master is thin, the kid is arrogant, I don't know how thick the sky is, and I don't know how thick the sky is, so I didn't say anything in front of you." After going down, I was also repentant in my heart, and I was thinking about when I would come to the door to ask for sin. But I don't want to...... But he didn't want the master to be thin and broad-minded, so he recommended Sun Yuan to be the grain chief. The kid is shallow, how can he afford such a heavy responsibility, please also ask the master to be thin and invite the virtuous. Otherwise, if you miss the envoy of the imperial court, although Sun Yuan is not guilty, he will also live up to your expectations. β
"Haha, where did Chief Sun Liang go, it was just a small misunderstanding last time, it's all in the past. Mao Cheng is my brother-in-law, Mao Cheng is the Baozheng who is in charge of your spring Tai, speaking of which, everyone is also a fellow villager. I heard Mao Cheng say, Sun Liangchang, you used to walk around a lot, and you are a well-informed person. Moreover, the most unexpected thing is that you are still a scholar, and you have become a protΓ©gΓ© of the county in this county examination, and talents are rare! Mao Cheng deliberately sighed: "Please also ask Sun Yuan, don't shirk." β
Then he pretended to be a respectful appearance and taught earnestly: "Sun Yuan, today I will open the skylight and say something." Although I recommended you this time, it is also the support of the county honor. You think, you're just a child now, and you don't know how many years you'll have to wait to gain fame. And reading is a money-consuming thing. If you come from a poor family, if you are running around all day to make a living, how can you still study in peace? Being a grain chief, no matter how you say it, you can be regarded as a local figure with a big face, and it will also be good for your future. You can take this errand with peace of mind, and Hugh will refute the good intentions of the county. Of course, if you have any problems with this errand, you can come to me. β
Seeing his fake face, Sun Yuan felt like laughing. However, he also knew that Lei Tai was determined to find his own trouble this time, and he couldn't avoid it no matter what. At this time, it was useless to talk about anything else, but it aroused the vigilance of the birdman.
However, go and be this grain chief, and make it clear that there is death and no life.
How do you get through this?
Sun Yuan's heart trembled, and he became a little flustered, while pretending to be frightened and surprised, he stood up and said: "Thank you Lord Bo for your recommendation, if it weren't for you, Sun Yuan would just be a poor boy, I can't think of it...... Ahem, I can't imagine that now I have become a grain chief who is bigger than Li and Bao! β
Seeing the joy on Sun Yuan's face, Lei Tai laughed and pulled Sun Yuan to the front of the big case: "Since Sun Liangchang has taken over this errand, he is busy with affairs, so I won't say anything more." Let's sum up how to do this thing, the county should finish the autumn grain this year a total of 30,000 stones......"
