Chapter 354: Turmoil

The Ministry of Industry sent someone to repair the government office, how many years has this not happened? Not only Nanzhen Fusi, but also the subordinate officials of the entire Jinyi Wei Yamen came out to see the surprise.

Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Labor who led the craftsmen to meet, met with Qin Lin, was extremely polite, and kept calling himself a subordinate official, calling him General Qin.

As an official, you don't repair the yamen, but the yamen is too tattered, and it is nothing for officials to spend money to repair it; But Qin Lin arrived the day before yesterday, and he was divided into a dilapidated Chaobei Office, and his ass was not yet hot, and today there was a member of the Camp and Qing Officials Division holding the notebook of the Ministry of Industry to repair the office for him, how much face do you say this has?

In the Jinyi Wei Yamen, from the officials in the hall to the thousands of households, hundreds of households, townspeople, experiences, and governors, they were all envious, and Commander Na Hong was even more eager to give a thumbs up to Qin Lin's back, and whispered to his colleagues: "Great, don't look at Commander Qin's young age, people have hands and eyes all over the sky!" ”

Diao Shigui and Hua Deguan are even more secretly frightened when they know a little about the inside story, as the Jinyi Guard of the Imperial Power Eagle Dog and the six ministries in charge of the civil officials, the relationship between them is very ordinary, Qin Lin was able to ask the Ministry of Industry Shangshu to personally send someone to repair his yamen, this hand is really wide...... Only Feng Bangning, who was sitting in the main hall of Fusi in Nanzhen, was so angry that he was so angry that the subordinate officials of the co-office all ran out to watch the excitement, but he hid in the room and didn't go out-what did he do when he went out, being ridiculed and ridiculed by Qin Lin?

Cao Xingwang stood next to him with a sad face, it was like mourning, the master was unhappy in his heart, and being a lackey was naturally doubly uncomfortable.

It's no wonder that Feng Bangning is depressed, the office where he works is also very old, and it was only because of the practice of being an official not repairing the yamen that it was not repaired, but this time the Ministry of Industry came to repair for Qin Lin but did not repair it for him, wouldn't it be clear that he would not give face?

As the commander of Jinyiwei who is in charge of the Nanzhen Fu Division, and there is such a big backer as Feng Bao, Qin Lin has stolen the limelight when he gets around, Feng Bangning only feels panicked in his heart, and when he listens to the construction of the table tennis in the north mountain house, his stomach feels uncomfortable as if he has swallowed a fly.

"Don't worry, sir, someone Qin is just going to be determined for a while," Cao Xingwang cautiously persuaded and came up with an idea: "Otherwise, ask Master Feng Sili to order the palace to repair the yamen for you tomorrow, and I will definitely cover someone Qin." ”

A sucker! Feng Bangning kicked this lackey, not to mention his uncle Feng Bao, who would definitely scold himself for being incompetent after knowing this matter, and he couldn't even fight with a new commander, even if he sent the palace construction office to repair the government office, he would fall behind Qin Lin, and instead let others see the joke.

When Feng Bangning and Cao Xingwang were hiding in the room and sulking, Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali were smiling and instructing the craftsmen sent by the Ministry of Industry to add a flue here to install a stove, and the gable should also be double-layered to make a sandwich wall to keep warm, and the north-facing house had poor lighting, and the roof tiles should be covered with bright tiles made of transparent glass - this thing is still only available in the Jingwang Mansion according to the legend of the people of Qizhou.

The wailang and Qin Lin sat in the office of the subordinate officials of the Fusi in Nanzhen, each holding a bowl of hot gaiwan tea and tasting it slowly, not salty or light, talking about some gossip.

The subordinate officials heard Lu Fatzi's babbling call for more glass and bright tiles, and everyone spit out their tongues when they boarded: transparent glass is a Western product, and the price is very expensive!

But the outsider surnamed Xun of the Ministry of Industry did not change his expression in the slightest when he heard this, and he was still carelessly picking up the foam with the lid, as if what Lu Fatzi was roaring was not a glass tile, but a blue brick and clay tile.

Just kidding, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu personally wrote the notebook, don't say that a few more bright tiles, that is, the entire roof is paved with glass, as the entire Ming Dynasty is in charge of the construction of the Ministry of Industry, but also for him.

Seeing this scene, the subordinate officials at all levels were envious, after all, Jinyiwei is a state secret service, and the management is stricter than that of other yamen, basically they can't skip work, they freeze in the house in the cold weather, and they have to copy and write to deal with official business, and they all want to repair the rotten house that is ventilated on all sides, but in the past few decades, except for today, it seems that there has never been a large-scale renovation!

The oldest one with the most qualifications belonged to Commander Hong, and he sneered with an old face: "Outside Xun Yuan, you see that our yamen is leaking on all sides, and sitting in it is like a mouse in a bellows - a few heads are angry, and after repairing it for Commander Qin, when will the other government offices be repaired?" ”

"I had to fix it!" Xun Yuan Wailang pointed at Qin Lin: "The scribes of Cao in the capital all want to thank you for this Qin commander, it was he who said the dilapidated things about the government office in front of our Li Shangshu, so Li Butang has to repair the major yamen of the Beijing Division." Xia Guan estimated that the construction of the whole city would start in two days, and Qin commanded that this was just a step ahead. ”

This Xun member is actually not very clear about the inside story, and his words are slightly deviated, and when he listens to the ears of all the subordinate officials, he ponders the taste: dare to love our Qin Chief and Li Shangshu as soon as they say that their yamen is broken, and they will renovate the yamen in the whole city? My mother, co-authoring Jingshi is his backyard!

Only Chief Qin Lin Qin was drinking tea from beginning to end, sneering secretly, and said in his heart I will tell you that I ran to Xiangye's mansion to deceive Zhang Xiangye's only daughter?

Hum Hum Hum ...... Three days later, the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry were still working hard to repair Qin Lin's government office, and the maintenance projects of the yamen in various places were also started one after another.

Qin Lin didn't go to work because the office was under maintenance, so he went to the yamen every day to show up and then drove away, taking Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali to look around on the street, and it was very leisurely.

In fact, he was thinking about the matter of folding money, and discussed it with Xu Wenchang, and the old man also said that there were no good ideas, saying that those strange and strange things that were paid tribute by foreign countries were piled up in the treasury and I don't know how young they were, who knows what it will be like now?

But it was a coincidence that three days later, it was time to receive the salary, and Qin Lin took the two brothers to the carrier warehouse on the west side of the Taiye Pool to receive the salary.

The money and grain were received at the A-shaped warehouse, and the other one-third was converted in kind and collected at the adjacent carrier warehouse.

At this time, a number of officials, large and small, had already gathered outside the carrier, crowded one after another in colorful official uniforms, and the black gauze hats on their heads were pressed together.

Qin Lin heard people shouting from afar: "Let's not live, the income is low, and we have to pay a discount, do we have to force us to sell our children?" ”

"Yes, being this poor Beijing official, I really can't live!"

However, among a group of people, there was also an official wearing a pig's crown who said pretendedly: "We are officials in order to show our ambitions, to answer the king's grace, and to live up to the people, and now the court is in a difficult situation, and we will receive the discount, which can be regarded as a ...... of suffering with the court."
