Chapter 34: Moisturizing Things (I)
"Of course the lord is the lord..."Mr. Su replied with a smile, then turned around and fled, "The lord has something to do, and Weichen will retire first..."
Being able to make Zhu Chongjiu make such a big change in one day has made him overjoyed. Therefore, it is decisive to accept it when it is good, so as not to be forced too quickly and backfire.
"Don't be lazy, take the time to go to Jiangwan New Town to patrol around, and solve any problems by the way. Huang Zheng doesn't read much, so many things may not be handled properly..."Zhu Chongjiu glared at him and ordered in a low voice.
Jiangwan New Town is a huge construction site specially built in the recess of the north bank of the Yangtze River in order to make full use of the dual needs of water power and secrecy. However, with the promotion of new production technology, some non-government workshops have also taken the initiative to gather in that area. As a result, the management of the new city is becoming more and more difficult, and Huang Laowei, who is the head of the workshop, is so tired that he foams at the mouth every day, and he still can't make it run completely smoothly.
And Huang Laowei himself is a little narrow-minded. He didn't get along with many of his subordinates. This has made the ability of the Industrial Bureau to handle matters weaker and weaker, and it has gradually become a shortcoming of the entire Governor's Office. Therefore, Zhu Chongjiu sometimes had to personally or arrange someone who could convince Huang Lao to take a hand in the past. lest the work bureau fall too far behind and delay the operation of the entire system.
Mr. Su naturally distinguished the severity, immediately put away his hippie smile, and responded with a positive color, "Yes, Wechen will take the car over immediately." Huang Zheng's health has not been very good since the beginning of spring, do you think he wants to retire first and take care of it for a while? ”
"Is there a suitable candidate?" Zhu Chongjiu immediately understood what Mr. Su meant, thought about it, and hesitated to ask.
The so-called raising is to give Huang Lao a long vacation. Then a new person will be added to temporarily replace him. When his body was almost recovered, the newcomer also gained a firm foothold in the work bureau. The two sides then re-divided the areas of responsibility and reached a new balance again.
"There are candidates, surnamed Xu, when we just broke Huai'an, the lord came to serve. Originally, he was a small official in Huai'an, he was very shrewd, and he was very decisive in handling things..."
"What does he do now?"
"Right now, it's a matter of the financial bureau, and I made some contributions at the end of last year. I asked the Internal Affairs Department to check his details, and there should be no problem with loyalty..."Mr. Su thought about it and added cautiously.
"Well, first transfer to the Industrial Bureau to make one for Huang Lao" Zhu Chongjiu hesitated for a moment and shook his head slightly, "Forget it, lest you lack manpower again." You retained from the first imperial examination, and transferred a few more to Huang Lao. Then he stared at it a little more. Huang Lao Crooked is a person with a heart, so he naturally knows what to do..."
"So? It's good. The lord is more thoughtful than Weichen..."After Mr. Su heard this, he nodded tacitly. The talents who can be selected by the imperial examination should try not to use the small officials left over from the old dynasty. This is almost an unwritten rule in the Huai'an system. Although the latter is more experienced than the former, the former's sense of identification with the Grand Governor's Office far exceeds that of the latter.
"That is, it is a matter of two or three years, and everyone gritted their teeth and survived. When the students of our Fuxue, Baigong Technical School and Jiangwutang have all graduated, it will not be so difficult..."Lest Mr. Su be too careful, Zhu Chongjiu added in a low voice.
This sentence made Mr. Su unable to disagree. At the most difficult moment of the Huai'an Grand Governor's Office last year, some people were shaken from the army to the localities. There were even people who took the initiative to contact Toto's side, hoping that after the defeat of the Huai'an army, they could avoid suffering from the pond fish. In the schools funded by the Governor's Office, these situations are rare. In particular, the students of the Baigong Technical School and the Jiangwutang always stepped forward at the most critical moments, which greatly stabilized the morale of the army and the people for the government.
Therefore, in the eyes of many core figures in the Grand Governor's Mansion, the students of the government school, the technical school and the lecture martial arts hall belong to their own children. Although he has not grown up yet, he can inherit the family business in the future. And those who have been admitted to the imperial examination are one level away, and before they show enough loyalty and ability, they can only be regarded as hired shopkeepers and associates. As for the officials retained by the previous dynasty, they are one layer away, except for the best of the very few, most of the others are destined to miss the council hall of the Great Governor's Mansion in this life.
The two discussed and dealt with a few more trivial matters, and then Su Mingzhe was finally able to leave. Zhu Chongjiu buried his head in the case again and began to fight with the stacks of official documents.
Whether it is Zhu Laofu in this time and space, or Zhu Dapeng in another time and space, his political talent is very ordinary. Therefore, the speed of handling official business is also very slow. Fortunately, after the fusion of the two souls, some of the concepts of the later generations were also absorbed by the new body intact. If the entire governor's office is regarded as a company, and the factory, firm, finance and taxation departments are regarded as production, sales, and finance, if simplified, it is quite organized for the time being.
Time flies by in the busyness, and in a blink of an eye, it is already sunset. The commander of the pro-soldier company on duty came in and reminded him, which made Zhu Chongjiu quickly remember that he had invited someone to dinner. So he put down the pen, stretched hard, and walked out of the gate with his spirits.
Someone had already arranged a carriage to pick up Peng Zaozhu and others from the post house. The two sides converged in one place, and then slowly drove down the street to the largest restaurant by the canal.
In the afternoon, the owner of the restaurant received a notice from the Guards Brigade in advance, knowing that it was Manager Zhu who was going to entertain distinguished guests in his own place, and he was both excited and afraid. So without waiting for sunset, he took the initiative to cooperate with a few guards in disguise and emptied the entire restaurant. After replacing all the chefs, cooks, and buddies with their own relatives, and then tasting the ingredients for cooking one by one, he finally put his mind at ease and waited at the door of the building with a look of anticipation.
When Zhu Chongjiu and the others arrived, they were directly sent to the second floor. After a while, one after another Yangzhou's fresh delicacies were served on the table.
Although Peng Zaozhu and others called Zhu Chongjiu their uncle, in fact, the age difference between the two sides was not much older. So after a few glasses of hot wine, everyone is no longer the cautious appearance before. The tongue in his mouth gradually became sharper, and the words he said became more and more honest.
"My dad said that he used to do a lot of things recklessly. So I want to ask me to make amends for you in person..."Pan Feng, the son of Pan Lezi, who is a core figure in it, picked up the wine cup and bowed slightly towards Zhu Chongjiu, "This one, the little nephew will kill it first... If our father and son are rude, please forgive my uncle..."
With that, he poured the wine into his mouth and emptied it.
"Where did that come from? Ling Zun and I are both Li Shuai's old subordinates, breaking bones and connecting tendons. Even if there is a misunderstanding between each other, no one will take it to heart. Besides, when I was in Xuzhou at the beginning, many of my subordinates were given by Ling Zun, Peng Dududu, and General Zhang..."Zhu Chongjiu raised the wine cup and took a sip, and then responded with a smile.
Deep down, he didn't mind the departure of Peng Da and the others very much, and he was even a little relieved. Because these people can't integrate into the Huaiyang system at all, staying will only add chaos to themselves. On the contrary, it is to take the initiative to leave, which can make it much easier for each other. At least, he no longer has to worry about Peng Da and the others violating Huaiyang's laws one day, so that he has to knife them.
"The little nephew still has a reluctant request, I don't know if my uncle can be accommodating..."Observing Zhu Chongjiu's face repeatedly, seeing that he was indeed not displeased, Pan Feng raised the second glass of wine and continued to say with a smile.
"Say, as long as it doesn't violate Huaiyang's laws, if I can help, I will definitely help..."Zhu Chongjiu smiled and nodded slightly.
"The little nephew and others are all the younger generations of the uncle, and when they meet in private, they naturally follow the gifts of the juniors. But in public, the little nephew hopes to be like others, to call his uncle the lord..."Pan Feng's voice suddenly became a little urgent, and the wine cup in his hand trembled slightly, spilling the wine out, splashing the crimson carpet.
The other teenagers also raised their wine cups one after another, waiting for Zhu Chongjiu's response with anticipation on their faces. Don't compare, don't know the benefits of Huaiyang. After witnessing the decay and artificiality on Bianliang's side, they understood in their hearts that between the two sides, the future was brighter over there.
"You can come, Zhu is welcome. Including Peng Dudu, Zhao Dudu and Pan Dudu, if they get tired of walking outside in the future, Zhu's side will leave a place for them to stay..."Under everyone's ardent expectation, Zhu Chongjiu smiled and nodded. "However, Zhu can't just set this precedent and let you call the lord. If you can graduate from the lecture martial arts hall and enter the Huai'an Army with your ability, or graduate from other academies and enter the Hundred Workshops and the Huaiyang Eighth Bureau and the First Hospital. Zhu, who is an elder, will never turn away his own children and nephews..."
"Uncle Eighty-One..."Several teenagers held up wine cups, their voices choked. They had already heard Peng Zaozhu relay similar words in the afternoon, but when they heard Zhu Chongjiu explain it again at this moment, they had a different feeling.
Uncle Eighty-One was just, and did not get angry with them because of the fault of their fathers, and looked at them differently. Of course, they will not take care of them because of their father's merits and open up a golden strip for them. In a certain sense, from this moment on, they have become ordinary people. There is no difference with the children of ordinary families in Huaiyang. Although in fact, they far surpass their peers in terms of martial arts, strategy and dealing with people.
"Zhu and your parents were forced to be unbearable by the government, so they raised the knife and rebelled..."Knowing that the young people may not be able to fully accept their own arrangements in their hearts, Zhu Chongjiu took another sip of wine and slowly added, "The last thing Zhu wants to see in his life is that the common people are forced to rise up by Zhu again." Therefore, although you are the son and nephew of the deceased, Zhu can't take care of it too much. Otherwise, Zhu Mou started this by himself, and there will be a lot of people below him. It won't take long, and there will be no difference between Huaiyang and Meng Yuan. We are all a family, and a family does not speak two words. Since you've gone out for a spin, you should know if my words are unfounded..."
Looking through the glass, Zhu Chongjiu seemed to have traveled through time and space again. From another perspective of time and space, whether it is Peng Zaozhu, Pan Feng, or the Zhang brothers whose father died outside Xuzhou, they can all be regarded as a certain second generation. And when these second-generation people keep saying that they have the natural justice to take over their father's position and ideals, they don't know that their actions are just blaspheming their father's ideals.
