The first chapter of the scrapped new book is pie in the sky
In the early spring of Ming Chongzhen, for Suzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, it is the time when the wind and the sun are beautiful, and the spring breeze is warm, in such weather, people's mood will be a lot more pleasant. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info watch the latest chapters of Perfect World, go to the bar.
However, in such weather, there is no one who is comfortable, on the contrary, he is very nervous now, sweating on his head, feeling that the air in this room will roast people.
Of course, this is just a psychological illusion, because there is an interview going on here, and the person who is sweating on his head is Lin Chihe, who came to apply today.
Because the results of this interview will determine his future life, thinking of the seriously ill old lady at home, and he has become a street rat, so this interview can only succeed, not fail! Thinking of this, Lin Chihe's stiff face squeezed out a smile, but that expression was as ugly as it was.
"My lord, I'm not picky about errands, and I don't have high salary requirements, I can do whatever you want me to do, and I will never dare to steal and play tricks!" Lin Chihe hurriedly said to the official with a poker face on the desk.
The official didn't pay attention to Lin Chihe, but stared at the paper on the case, as if he had a grudge against the word "errand officer" on this piece of paper, and he was very puzzled that the errand officer had come to him. The subordinates are too casual in doing things, and one of his county masters actually chose to serve as an errand officer.
Seeing this scene, Lin Chihe was even more apprehensive, he knew his own affairs, and the paper that the official looked at was written by himself, as a person who rarely even used a pen in later generations, it was already very good to be able to write the brush words, and that word naturally couldn't say how beautiful it was.
"Adult, this, the villain is poor, recently worked in the workshop, for a long time, for the writing is unfamiliar, in the future the small must practice diligently!" Lin Chihe explained stiffly.
Literate? No wonder! Hearing Lin Chihe's words, the examiner finally raised his head, looked at Lin Chihe for the first time and said, "You mean, you wrote this word yourself?" What is the fame? ”
Lin Chihe saw that the high-ranking examiner was finally willing to look up at him, and hurriedly replied respectfully: "Back to the adult's words, the student used to study in a private school for a few years, but his father died early, and the family was poor and unsustainable, so in order to support the family, he had to enter the workshop as an apprentice, and his studies were wasted!" ”
"It's a pity!" The examiner said lightly, he was very disappointed, I don't know if he was a pity that Lin Chihe did not continue to study, or a pity that there was one less saint's child.
When Lin Chihe saw it, he felt even more nervous in his heart, no, he had to find a way, he couldn't let the examiner continue, otherwise it was likely to be a failure!
So Lin Chihe gritted his teeth and said respectfully: "When the villain came, my mother had an explanation, and I should be respectful to all the adults, I don't know where the adults live, the villain will definitely come to visit in the future!" ”
The examiner raised his head, looked at Lin Chihe with a smile, and said lightly: "I want to know the address of the official, and then give a gift?" Isn't it? I wonder how much silver you can give to this official? ”
Lin Chihe listened to the examiner's direct pointing, so he didn't hide it, gritted his teeth and said: "The villain really needs this job, if the adult can help, the villain will not forget the kindness of the adult, I am willing to give a year's salary to the adult!" ”
"A year's salary? It's very willing, but look at what you write on the paper, you are applying for a job, and you will only have eight dollars of silver a year, and these eight dollars of silver are a year's livelihood for you, but if you want to send the official, it is estimated that you will not even be able to pass the gatekeeper level! ”
The examiner's words were very breezy and light, but in Lin Chihe's ears, it was undoubtedly a huge blow. Damn, my heart is so dark! Still not satisfied with a year's salary? I was waiting for the eight dollars of silver to treat my mother and let my family live.
If you don't really be an errand servant, you can have extra money, and it's easy to borrow money, who is stupid to work for nothing. Thinking of this, Lin Chihe was a little indignant in his heart, if he was his former self, he would not be angry with this bird for a long time, and he just shook his head and left.
But people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, a minute is difficult for the hero, he is not the one in the future who is full, the whole family is not hungry Lin Chihe, now there is a sick mother at home, and a nutritious brother and sister, and the temperament can't afford it.
Thinking that a few days ago, he lost his job because he was trying to be so fast, so that his mother was cut off medicine, and his younger siblings were hungry, Lin Chihe rushed to regret it. However, what he regrets is that he didn't do things absolutely at the beginning, which not only completely exempted other workers from future troubles, but also offset his own deducted wages.
Han Lao, who gave birth to a son and has no asshole, will wait for Lao Tzu to become a servant, and there will be a chance to clean you up! Lin Chihe thought indignantly, but he turned his head and thought about it, it seemed that Han Laoli had no son, I heard that he had a daughter who was very beautiful, do you want to repay the debt of the father and daughter?
But I think these are all things that are gone, and now the key is to have an errand and be able to support the whole family. Thinking of this, Lin Chihe's attitude was even more humble, with a flattering smile on his face, and he said carefully: "My lord, you open a number, as long as it is possible, the small one will try to be satisfied!" ”
The examiner looked up at Lin Chihe, there was no such smile on his face, and he asked: "The official is very curious, your family is poor, you can't take out so much silver at all, for this errand, you have to work for several years for nothing, is it worth it?" You might as well continue to work, no matter how you say it, you won't have to worry about food and clothing! ”
Hearing the examiner's words, Lin Chihe's face was embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer, but the examiner saw Lin Chihe's words and smiled: "Since you don't want to answer, then forget it!" ”
Lin Chihe gritted his teeth and immediately spoke: "It's not that the villain is unwilling to answer, but it's a little difficult to speak, because something happened, the villain was fired, and he was kicked out without even settling his previous salary, so now there is no rice in the pot at home, so I have to get this job!" ”
"Oh, I see!" The examiner nodded slowly, and then asked, "Then can you tell me why you were kicked out?" You can say this if you want to. However, this official hates that someone lied to me the most! ”
Speaking of this, the examiner's face was very serious, he stared straight at Lin Chihe's eyes, his gaze was like a sharp sword, straight into Lin Chihe's heart, as if as long as Lin Chihe dared to tell a lie, he would have a seizure immediately.
Lin Chihe now knows what official authority is, he licked his lips that were a little dry, and said in his heart, why not say it, so he said: "The reason is very simple, I ate the chicken that crows in the workshop!" ”
"Stealing?" The examiner frowned, obviously surprised by this answer, and at the same time his tone was a little disappointed, in this case, this person is too cunning to master!
"It's not stealing! I am for the people, and that chicken is innocent! It's long overdue! Lin Chihe's head was raised high, his head held high, and he was obviously not ashamed of his actions at all.
The examiner smiled, but his smile was a little cold, "It's weird, this official has only heard that people are innocent when they die, what can a chicken be at fault?" ”
"My lord, if you go to work until sunset every day, just go to sleep, before the fifth watch, you are woken up by a chicken, and then go to work before dawn, every day, you don't sleep enough every day, will you want to kill that chicken?" Lin Chihe looked directly at the examiner and asked rhetorically.
"Well, this is a bit too much, but isn't the chicken crowing only when Fo Xiao?"
"But the chicken in our workshop used to crow only six watches, but the workshop owner specially trained, and now it crows on the fifth watch, and its crowing time is getting earlier and earlier, and our rest time is getting less and less!"
"Where did you go before?" The examiners all felt a chill, this chicken was really angry, these businessmen were really black-hearted, in order to make money, they didn't even want benevolence, morality, and shame.
"Chengnan, Han's Sanjiang Commercial Bank!" Lin Chihe immediately said the name that he remembered deeply.
"It turned out to be Han Taiping's old pick, no wonder!" The examiner suddenly said with a sudden realization that this Han Taiping usually only uses a wick to light the lamp, and he is reluctant to even eat meat, and he is harsh on the hired workers, which is normal.
Lin Chihe had the heart to step on Han Taiping's feet and give him some eye medicine, but after thinking about it, forget it, now he has to be low-key, honest, and can't give people a sense of oiliness, otherwise he will have no chance.
The examiner didn't speak, he stroked the beard on his chin, obviously thinking about whether Lin Chihe wanted to, after a while, he coughed, and Lin Chihe immediately straightened his waist and waited for the final answer.
"The positions of the errand officers are full, these positions can not be done with money, they are related to all aspects, and the officials usually don't bother to ask about these things. But there's still a seat, would you like to do it? ”
"Yes, yes! My lord, even if I am a handyman, I am willing! Lin Chihe was about to leave, but he didn't expect things to turn around.
The examiner was almost so angry that he vomited blood, I look like the kind of person who only recruits miscellaneous laborers? Am I so unproductive? Thinking of this, the examiner said angrily: "The history of taxation, which is in charge of taxation, is barely an official, I don't know if you are interested?" First of all, this location is not easy to do! ”
Taxed? Still an official! Lin Chihe was stunned by this unexpected joy, this is too incredible, a person who has no chance to apply for a bad job can still be an official?
It's gone, it's gone, grandma's Han Taiping, let you look down on people, this time I am an official, and I am also in charge of collecting taxes, see that you are still arrogant in front of me! As for what the examiner said about not doing well, he automatically ignored it, tax cadres are not easy to do, there is nothing good to do in the world, and there is money in the pocket when you fall asleep!
Thinking of this, Lin Chi smiled with his eyebrows, as if he saw Han Taiping whispering in front of him, and asked his beautiful daughter to serve tea and water on the side.
