He said with a smile on his face: "The villain doesn't dare to lie a little, you can let Mr. Deadwood and Master Gan taste it in a while, and they will definitely not be disappointed." If they like it, you don't have to send someone to find it, just tell the villain. The villain asked the wine shop to prepare some and give some to Mr. Deadwood, and let the adults take some to the capital to give gifts. ”

"You don't have to, just tell me where to buy it." Zhao Ruxi said.

She didn't want wine, she wanted to see the winery.

"Your Excellency, you don't know, although this brewery also sells wine, but the wine that goes out is freshly brewed. There is not much old wine in his family, and they generally don't sell it to people who are not close relatives. The villain was also able to buy this good wine because he happened to do his family a favor ten years ago. ”

"I see. Then you will have to worry about Chen Jingcheng. Zhao Ruxi arched his hand and said very politely.

Seeing that Zhao Ruxi and Chen Kang were chatting back and forth, the relationship between the two became very good, and they could go to the winery together to buy wine, Cai Yaozong's heart was so sour.

He smiled and said: "Lao Chen, you are from Nanyang, and you have never been to other places, after drinking this wine, you naturally feel good and proud of it, I can understand." But the world is so big, there are more good things. Just to say that the wine did not become a tribute shows that it still has shortcomings. Mr. Deadwood is the emperor's cousin, and he is comparable to the emperor's own brother, what kind of tribute wine has he not drunk? Don't blow it too much, and you'll disappoint Mr. Deadwood. ”

Chen Kang's smile froze, and then he said, "That's what Lord Cai said." I, the frog at the bottom of the well, thought it was the first in the world when I drank a little smooth wine, but I forgot where Lord Zhao and Mr. Deadwood came from, ashamed, ashamed. ”

"But turnip and cabbage, each has its own love, maybe Mr. Deadwood, Lord Gan, and Mr. Zhou love this bite? Since they came to Nanyang, Lord Zhao took out Nanyang's wine for them to taste, and it did not lose your heart. So give it a try. ”

"I'm sure it's a good wine." Zhao Ruxi nodded and said, "I'll let Master and them taste it in a while." ”

Hearing this, a smile bloomed on Chen Kang's face, which was extremely bright.

"Listen to the sound, listen to the sound of gongs and drums". Zhao Ruxi's words showed that she was willing to accept his Chen Kang's kindness, but rejected Cai Yaozong.

Hmph, Cai Yaozong, the old dog, wants to dismantle his platform, but there is no door.

"Uh-huh!" Cai Yaozong coughed vigorously and announced his existence, and then said to Zhao Ruxi, "I'm coming here now, in addition to saying hello to Mr. Deadwood, I also want to tell Lord Zhao one thing." ”

"I thought about it later, and I felt that Lord Zhao could be appointed by the emperor as the champion, and he should be extremely top-notch in terms of knowledge and ability, and it is really inappropriate for me to look at you from the perspective of an ordinary new official."

"I plan to take out the two matters of grain supervision and water conservancy from me to Lord Zhao; Lord Li Li will also divide one or two affairs to Lord Zhao at that time. What do you think? If Lord Zhao has no opinion, I will report this matter to Lord Liu when I return to the yamen in a while. ”

Zhao Ruxi thought that Cai Yaozong would fight with her for two more rounds, but she didn't expect to let go so easily, which made her feel a little surprised.

She stood up and waved at Cai Yaozong: "Thank you Lord Cai for being willing to bring your juniors." Since Lord Cai has good intentions, then I will be respectful and obey my orders and take these affairs forward. ”

Without waiting for a smile to bloom on Cai Yaozong's face, Zhao Ruxi said again: "Actually, what Lord Cai said is not wrong, although I am better at studying than others, but because of my young age, I usually don't have much contact with general affairs, and I am indeed not as familiar with government affairs as you." Therefore, I would like to ask Lord Cai for permission to read the files and accounts of salt and grain. ”

Cai Yaozong's face changed.

Zhao Ruxi didn't wait for him to speak, and said: "But don't worry, Lord Cai, I just understand the situation, study and study, and don't do anything else." Master Gan has already become a magistrate, and he is no longer an official in the imperial court, and his words about reading the account books for me are just a joke. It's not in accordance with the rules, and I don't want to make him work too hard. ”

"This ......" Cai Yaozong's face was extremely ugly, "Lord Zhao, you are young, and you may not know some officialdom rules." If it is not a superior official, it is inconvenient for other officials of the same or lower level to meddle in the affairs under the jurisdiction of others, let alone look at the files and accounts. ”

"It's a taboo to stretch your hand too long. If I promise you, it will not do you or me. So I'm sorry, I can't agree to this. ”

"So?" Zhao Ruxi frowned and thought about it, raised his eyes and said, "Then forget it." I'd better not take over the affairs for the time being, and just go ahead with the original plan. When I'm done understanding the situation and learning all the things, it's not too late to take over the specific tasks. ”

She smiled at Cai Yaozong and arched her hand: "During this time, I still bother Lord Cai and Master Li to worry a lot, and take care of some affairs for the time being." ”

Cai Yaozong held a mouthful of old blood in his heart and almost spurted out.

Why is this little girly so difficult? He had taken a big step back, and she still held on to the salt files and accounts.

Zhao Ruxi is still smiling, she looks like an innocent little girl, but what she says is not cute at all.

She said: "I didn't ask for this, I didn't specifically want to embarrass you, Lord Cai. The main reason is that I am good at arithmetic, and last winter there was a problem with the grain and grass at the border gate, and I calculated the accounts for the household department, and Lord Shangshu Qi of the household department always wanted me to work in the household department. ”

"It's just that I want to know more about local government affairs, so I took the initiative to ask for a foreign appointment. I don't know how long I can stay here, maybe it won't be long before Lord Qi asks the emperor to transfer me back. So now I want to take this opportunity to get a comprehensive understanding of local affairs. Later, when I went back to Beijing, I went to work in the household department, and I had a good idea of what to do. ”

Cai Yaozong: "......"

Threat, it's a threat again!

He is only in his early forties this year, and he will be an official for at least ten or twenty years. After Liu Hongyu became the official, he was likely to succeed him as the governor of Nanyang; In the future, he will go to other places to be an official. If Zhao Ruxi goes to work in the household department, won't his future accounts have to go through her hands?

In so many provinces, prefectures, and prefectures across the country, it is very good that household officials can check the accounts at the provincial level. The Department of Cleaning Officials will inspect more of the provinces it is responsible for, but rarely inspect them at the state level, and at most once every two or three years.

But that's just the general situation.

Once something goes wrong in a certain place, or a local official offends a household official, the household department will stare at the accounts of that place to check.

No matter how well you do your ledger, you can always find fault with the bones.
