Chapter 172: A New History of Thorns
"I've seen Cui Yuanjun!" Chen Fei took the initiative to say to a middle-aged man about forty years old.
"Hmm!" The middle-aged man replied coldly.
This middle-aged man is also the successor of Zhang Qiang, the former assassin of Shuozhou, and his surname is Cui and his name is Fu. And Zhang Qiang has been transferred to another place as an official, but Chen Fei heard that it seems that he was transferred to Chang'an as a secretary and young eunuch, although the grade was downgraded by one level, but he entered the central government, which is a big leap from the local to the central. For Tang officials, officials in the central government could be easily promoted. Judging from the resumes of the prime ministers in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, they all started from the central government and then became prime ministers.
Of course, Chen Fei was very scoffing at this situation. Because these officials all serve in the central government and have no experience in local governance, they are good at fighting in the imperial court, but they are obviously not in their business to develop people's livelihood. However, Chen Fei has not been able to solve this problem well for the time being, because Chen Fei's official position is too small to affect the central government. If Chen Fei can have the right one day, he will definitely throw out those central officials first and let them see the livelihood of the people, otherwise the officials who have been in the central government will not be grounded. A group of ungrounded officials have the power to dominate the world, which is not a blessing for the people!
However, now Chen Fei still pays attention to the new assassin Cui Fu.
"I came to see Cui Yuanjun and specially sent some local products." Chen Fei said.
Chen Fei immediately gave Cui Fu two smoked chickens and two smoked ducks, and some dried anchovy mushrooms.
"I have a clean breeze on my sleeves, and I don't have anything to give, that is, some local products for Cui Yuanjun. This is also the local product of our Shuo County, smoked chicken, smoked duck and anchovy mushrooms. If Cui Yuanjun can see it, then accept a little bit of heart from these people. Chen Fei said.
Cui Fu finally said: "I heard that Chen County's order is not small. I actually came up with a lot of ways to raise chickens, and I also made a lot of these things called anchovy mushrooms? Chen County Ling has only been in Shuo County for less than a year, and he has such an achievement. That's amazing! Now not only Shuoxian, but even the entire Shuozhou praises Chen County for making you a good official. And your broiler chicken duck. It has been sold to the entire Shuozhou, and even the surrounding states and counties can also eat your broiler, chicken and duck! ”
Chen Fei said modestly: "It's okay, tens of thousands of chickens and ducks in each batch seem to be a lot, but it's still not much." To supply to nearby state capitals, that is not enough. And the officials of my generation must work for the benefit of the people, so that they can be worthy of the trust of the people and the court, so that they can serve as officials in vain! ”
"Huh. In this case, Chen County has made you so noble, so how can I not pay attention to it? So ......"
Chen Fei chuckled in his heart, he had nothing to do, he was either a traitor or a thief! This new assassin actually began to tout Chen Fei at the beginning, which is definitely not a good thing. Chen Fei knows that there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason, this Cui Fu, as Chen Fei's boss, there is no need to please Chen Fei so much and flatter Chen Fei so much. But he was still so flattering, and there were only two reasons. That means that he either wants to fool you into selling his life, or he has a crush on you.
"Since you can't supply broiler chickens and ducks here, and I have countless counties in Tang Prefecture. I also want the people in all states and counties to be able to afford to eat broiler chicken and duck, so I also ask Chen County to order you to tell me this recipe for raising chickens and ducks, and I will go to a distant place to build a chicken farm! Cui Fu said.
Chen Fei scolded in his heart, this guy is really shameless, although he clearly said that he was for the people, but in fact it was for his own interests. This Cui Fu has taken a fancy to his recipe for raising chickens and ducks, so he wants to ask for it. And with the help of what is not in supply, want to increase investment.
"Don't worry, I won't breed in the western part of Datang. I will send it to Shandong for breeding. Cui Fu said.
Chen Fei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, this Cui Fu wanted to breed in Shandong. That also made Chen Fei feel a lot more relieved, at least he didn't come to grab business. But I heard Shandong. Chen Fei's heart couldn't help but move. Because Shandong in this period is not Shandong Province in later generations, Shandong in this era is east of Taihang Mountain. The geographical scope of Shandong in this era was much larger than that of later generations, including not only Shandong Province in later generations, but also Hebei Province, which was a very huge range.
However, this new assassin actually said what is the Shandong area, which means that he should be from that area of Shandong, and he should have a certain amount of power in Shandong. And according to his surname, it may be the legendary Seven Clans and Five Clans. There are two surnames in the seven sects and five surnames, and Chen Fei doesn't know if they are Qinghe Cui or Boling Cui, both of which are big families.
The status of the seven clans and five surnames in the Tang Dynasty was still very high, and these scholars had a very high status in the cultural field, and they were also the largest landlord group in the Tang Dynasty, and they owned more land than the emperor's family. As a result, they were the largest representatives of the landlord class, and many of their families often entered the government as officials. Even later in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, a prime minister said that the most regrettable thing in his life was that he was not able to marry a woman with five surnames as his wife, which shows the lofty status of the seven clans and five surnames.
"It seems that this new assassin is a member of the Shandong Shi clan, but he was sent here to take up a post, which can be regarded as preventing them from colluding in the Shandong area. But I have to be careful, the strength of these warriors in the officialdom is very powerful, and if you are not careful, you will be unlucky. Chen Fei thought.
"Since Cui Yuanjun has the idea of benefiting the people, then I have nothing to disagree with! Isn't that just the way to do it? To put it bluntly, it's not worth mentioning. Chen Fei said.
Choi stroked his beard, and then no one knew what he was thinking. And Chen Fei looked at this Cui Fu, and his eyes showed a fine light, and he immediately knew that this Cui Fu wanted this recipe for raising chickens and ducks was not so simple. However, Chen Fei didn't know what his identity was in the Cui family, whether it was a descendant or a collateral line or even just a distant relative, and Chen Fei didn't have any information, so he couldn't judge. But since he is the boss and he doesn't want to come to Shanxi to grab business, there is no need to worry about him. What's more, like this recipe for raising chickens and ducks, Chen Fei still has a lot of breeding recipes, and there is no need to hold it in his hands if he really needs it. (To be continued) R655
