Chapter 116: Political Mansion?
It's one thing to hear a lot of things, but it's another thing to experience it and see it with your own eyes.
It is said that Nuoer Province borders the Salaha Desert, but Yang Zhi and Zhang Zengshu have not seen it after all, but when they stood at the gate of Mengding City, they were still stunned by the desolation in front of them.
The whole sky was gray, the only color was yellow, and the wind and sand in the sky were mixed with countless sands over the city wall up to more than ten meters high, and slapped on the faces of the two.
The two did not reveal their identities, but lined up in a low-key manner, and entered the city under the inspection of the soldiers.
However, instead of rushing to the governor's mansion, they blocked a young man who looked like he was in a middle of nowhere.
"I'll ask you for some news. ”
There is no need for Yang Zhi to make a move, with Zhang Zengshu's current strength, to deal with this kind of gangster, he can be caught.
"Uncle, what do you command, to put it bluntly, the little one must know everything, and he must say everything. ”
The young man had a flattering and far-fetched smile on his face, but he hated it in his heart, but the situation was stronger than people, so he had to bow his head for a while.
What kind of person is Zhang Zengshu, he naturally understood the young man's psychology thoroughly, and he didn't break it, his right hand reached into his chest, took out a golden coin from it, and threw it in his hand to play.
"I've already asked the others just now, and I'm just asking you now to confirm the accuracy of the message, how about it, as long as you answer my question truthfully, this gold coin will be yours. ”
After the young man's eyes took out the gold coin from Zhang Zengshu, he couldn't take his eyes off it, he didn't expect that this guy who suddenly beat him up would be his gold owner.
Thinking that this gold coin could allow him to stay in the Spring Pavilion for two weeks, the young man was naturally very willing, and he couldn't wait to be beaten every day.
"Your Excellency, you say, you say. ”
Zhang Zengshu glanced at the young man and asked:
"Who is the governor of this province of Noor?"
The Du Cheng in Zhang Zengshu's mouth is the second-in-command of the virtual small world, which is equivalent to the secretary in the real world. The reason why the two of them were delayed in the real world for a day before was to learn more about things in the virtual small world.
The young man glanced at the two of them strangely, but he didn't care: he said truthfully:
"The current governor is called Liu Chong. ”
As if feeling that such a simple piece of information was not enough for a gold coin, the young gangster continued:
"It is said that this Liu Chong, he once served as the governor of another province in the south, and his political achievements were remarkable, and the reason why the central government of the empire put him in Nuoer was to solve the economic problems of Nuoer Province, which I also heard from Xiaohong of Yingchun Pavilion, according to her, this was said by an official who was drunk at the time. I don't know if it's true. ”
The expression on the young gangster's face made the two of them quickly understand what the Yingchun Pavilion was, but at this time, Zhang Zengshu was more concerned about another issue.
"One last question, how long has the post of Governor of Noel been vacant. ”
"It's like two years, no... I counted, to be exact, more than 300 days a year. ”
The young gangster thought for a while, as if he was worried that the information Zhang Zengshu got from others would be different from him, and emphasized:
"I can't be wrong, it's more than 300 days a year, I remember very clearly, at that time, when Governor Liu Chong first came, some officials in order to catch him up, specially set up a banquet in the Yingchun Pavilion, so that I couldn't go in for several days. ”
The reason why Zhang Zengshu asked this question is for a big reason, because it is related to whether he, the future governor's office, can carry out his work smoothly. However, the young gangster's answer made Dezhang Zengshu frown.
"Okay, it's nothing to do with you. ”
Zhang Zengshu threw the gold coin at the young gangster, and the two turned to leave.
All the way out of the alley, Yang Zhi said to Zhang Zengshu:
"Looks like we're going to have to replan. ”
The previous plan of the two was to recruit subordinates who could generally be summoned through the governor of the virtual small world first, but now it seems that it is not easy.
Zhang Zengshu nodded, but he already understood in his heart.
You must know that although this person named Liu Chong is nominally an assistant under the name of the governor's office, in fact, in the case of a vacancy in the governor's office, the governor can exercise many rights of the governor's office, and even in the case of a two-year vacancy in the governor's office, the governor has the right to succeed in order.
It is conceivable that his sudden airborne landing will make this governor crazy, and it is strange that he will be kind to them.
The two crossed the street and rushed directly to the governor's mansion.
The residence of the Governor's Mansion is located in the center of the city, and the typical architectural style of the Northwest is almost crude, but when you think about this damn weather, no matter how gorgeous the decoration is blown by the wind and sand, it is also blind.
Before they could get closer, the two of them felt the busy atmosphere of the mansion from a distance.
At this time, there are a number of seemingly busy people coming and going at the gate of the mansion, and from the tools in their hands, it can be seen that this is a group of workers repairing the mansion.
However, what is strange is that the movements of these workers are slow, and they stop and chatter from time to time, as if the construction deadline is not rushing.
At first, the two didn't pay much attention to it, and thought it was the characteristic of this place, after all, there are many countries in the real world, and it is said that it is eight hours of labor time every day, but in fact, it is not really counted, less than two hours.
However, when the two revealed their identities, they found that something was wrong.
They were received by a civil servant with an extremely respectful attitude.
"Lord Governor's Mansion, you see that the Mansion of the Governor is being renovated, why don't you ask the Lord of the Governor's Mansion to move to the Government Mansion, the Government Mansion is not far in front......"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Zengshu.
"No need, Noor Province has been abandoned for so long, and there are a lot of government affairs that have not been solved, so you should take me to the office first. ”
Zheng Mansion?
If the two had not inquired about the news in private before, they might have been deceived by the respectful attitude of the person who came.
In the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Zhenggong Mansion was a place to receive foreign officials, which was equivalent to the post house in ancient China.
There is no doubt that these workers were arranged by Liu Chong, and this is to give the governor's office a disgrace.
