Chapter 92

That night, the three of them staggered, Zhang Lun drank averagely, but the county lord drank well, plus the previous festival with Song Nan, he was somewhat emotionally depressed, so he pulled Song Nan to drink cup after cup, drunk Song Nan not to mention, even she herself was drunk.

The entourage of the British government came to check when they saw that the time was too long, and saw that the county lord was still holding Song Nan's neck with one hand, and holding the handle of the wine jug with the other hand to maintain the posture of pouring wine, but the person was lying on Song Nan's chest and his cheeks were red with drunkenness, and Song Nan had already leaned his head against the back of the chair, drunk and asleep.

The guards of the British Mansion sent the drunk Song Nan back to the Song Mansion, and everyone in the Song family had been waiting anxiously, and after listening to the guard's words, they realized that it was the little grandfather and the little county lord of the British Mansion who invited Song Nan to the banquet tonight; Ye Fanggu and Lu Qingli helped Song Nan wipe their heads and faces, and helped them to the room in the east wing.

Both of them know the goods, know the preciousness of this jade bracelet, where did Song Nan get this precious jade bracelet, almost guess it, the little grandfather treated, the little county lord accompanied, and then Song Nan had an extra jade bracelet in his arms, and they contacted each other a little, and suddenly thought about it.

As the so-called concern is chaos, the two sisters looked at each other and suddenly felt uneasy; After settling Song Nan to sleep, the two sisters had their own thoughts, tossing and turning, and their hearts went up and down, I don't know what it tasted like.

……

Zhang Lun did things vigorously and resolutely, and the next day, he led the soldiers and horses of the five cities to begin to clean up the ruffians and evil forces in the streets, and the lord of the county also gathered Yan San and Ma Degang cadres in the streets under the jurisdiction of Zhengnan Fang, and asked them to provide clues to clean up the ruffians and hooligans in other places.

But where there are connections between the ruffians who are mixed in the market, as the saying goes, 'shrimp has shrimp road, turtle has turtle road' There are always some interests or grievances between these guys, the lord of the county first explained that he was going to set up a law enforcement team, and then rewarded Ma Degang with a few big mouths, Ma Degang suddenly felt hopeless to resist, so under the traction of clues, a clean-up activity for the ruffians in the city was vigorously launched.

Suddenly, the chickens and dogs jumped in the major districts, and some of the villains with a criminal record escaped and were arrested, and their subordinates followed the idle men and ruffians of the mixed world to catch no less than seven or eight hundred, according to the principle of 'eliminating the first evil and preserving the small faults', most of the idle men and gangsters were given lenient treatment, on the condition that they joined the newly established civil maintenance association to assist in the health and order management of the community.

After nearly ten days of tossing, 518 people were finally selected as the team, and Song Nan naturally named the soon-to-be-established organization 'Chengguan Brigade', which sounded domineering, and then formulated 18 rules and regulations to clarify powers, responsibilities and punishments.

The little grandfather found more than a dozen acres of wasteland in Nancheng, built a house, leveled several acres of vacant land, built a compound, and purchased a batch of equipment for training.

On July 18, the little grandfather Zhang Lun and Song Nan personally came to the station of the chengguan brigade, the firecrackers crackled, the gongs and drums chirped, and the plaque of the chengguan brigade handwritten by the little grandfather was hung, and the first chengguan brigade of the Ming Dynasty was regarded as the city.

The five hundred and eighteen chengguan team members are a brigade, all under the jurisdiction of the county lord, and the county lord is the captain, but Zhang Lun understands that his sister has a set of troublemakers, and Song Nan is needed to really coordinate and command, so he insisted on Song Nan as the deputy captain. Of course, Song Nan will not refuse, the team established with so much money may be the team that will make a fortune in the future, so naturally it cannot be released to outsiders at will, so he happily took office; The county lord is also very happy, Song Nan lives under herself, which just satisfies her vanity, this guy has never given himself a good face, isn't this time his subordinate.

The five squadron leaders were respectively served by the five street gangster leaders, Yan San, Ma Degang, Hou Zhongcai of Mingyufang, Qin Laoba of Chongjiaofang, and Zhao Sigou of Nanxunfang, all of whom were once gangster leaders, but none of them had much bad deeds, and they served as squadron leaders of five squadrons in the east, west, south, and north respectively, and received salaries according to the specifications of the positions of 100 households in the Ming Army. In addition, each squadron set up five squadrons, each with a squad leader, who received a salary according to the treatment of a small flag officer, and ordinary urban management team members received a salary according to the ordinary soldiers.

After a few days of intensive training, led by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, Song Nan led 700 households and more than 500 chengguan team members to coerce and obey, from south to north, and started a large-scale cleaning of the street in the capital; For a time, slogans were flying all over the sky, ox carts were running everywhere, piles of garbage and dead branches, mud in the gutters, and cow and horse dung on the roads were removed.

Zhang Lun's ability is not small, it doesn't rain, he got the water dragon team responsible for fighting the fire in the capital to take the water hose to wash the street day and night, after a hot seven-day cleaning, the major districts of the capital have a new look: the old dusty street was washed Zeng Mingwaliang, the light and dark ditches on both sides of the street were cleaned, the shops set up a three-pack responsibility letter in front of the door, placed a simple bamboo basket to hold garbage, and demolished hundreds of uninhabited old and dangerous houses in accordance with Song Nan's order, In the dense area of the shops, large tanks filled with emergency water are placed.

Zhang Lun really admires Song Nan, this guy's ideas are endless, but every suggestion is reasonable, for example, the idea of the "three bags in front of the door" responsibility system is very wonderful. In the name of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, each yamen and shops are required to designate a person responsible for this matter, and in the future, whenever there is a dirty situation in front of the door, they will directly find the person responsible, which will share the cumbersome responsibilities and greatly reduce the affairs of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and the effect is good.

For example, a quarterly health appraisal is held, the so-called mobile red flag is set up, and those who win the first place in each street and alley are sent to the door by beating gongs and drums and hanging on the lintel to show rewards, and those who have won the mobile red flag three times in a row will be given monetary rewards.

Although these measures were regarded as a laughing stock by some high-ranking officials of the yamen, the ordinary people applauded them.

With the normalization of the Chengguan Brigade to assist the personnel of the Five Cities Terracotta Division to carry out patrols, many street vendors and individuals who violated the regulations were arrested day and night, and after public criticism, the results of the hard work in the past month were gradually consolidated; The people gradually got used to walking on the bright streets, and they would frown at the slightest smell of garbage, and everyone began to spontaneously start to maintain this hard-won clean environment.

On the first day of the ninth month, the emperor's promise to patrol the city was finally fulfilled, accompanied by the cabinet scholars, the two princes of the country, the celebrant eunuch, the commander of the Dongchang and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and other bigwigs, Emperor Hongzhi took an afternoon to inspect the major districts of the capital from the left side of the inner city.

The golden wind is sassy, the blue sky is blue and the clouds are blue, and the Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youzhi looked at the neat streets and alleys of the capital that have changed greatly, and praised Zhang Lun for the soldiers and horses of the five cities on the side, and praised Zhang Lun for his civil and military achievements.

The British prince Zhang Mao was overjoyed, his eldest grandson finally did a beautiful errand, gave himself a long face, and was so praised by the emperor in front of the cabinet and many relatives, it was really not easy.

Zhang Lun was full of red face, before this, he never expected that he could also get the emperor's praise in the position of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, which was not embarrassing or embarrassing, in his thoughts, the major affairs of the country are nothing more than military and political affairs, and there is nothing more important than these two things; Among his two positions, the one he values most is the regular military position of the commander of the Fenwu Battalion, and the old man got him a part-time job as the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he was unwilling to do so.

Who would have expected that after spending a lot of energy in the Fenwu Camp and not getting any credit, he achieved great success in this part-time job.

Everyone knows how difficult it should be to get the praise of the Hongzhi Emperor, the emperor is deep and calm, the joy and anger are invisible, the life is frugal, and the ministers and generals are rarely praised and dispraised, according to the old man, this year, in addition to the victory in Ulzhou, the prince's study in the pavilion and the Jiangxi disaster relief three things made the emperor happy to praise, that is today's thing.

I really didn't expect that the emperor would care so much about the cleanliness and sanitation of the streets of the capital, which is really unpredictable and confusing.

In his sigh, Zhang Lun remembered a person, that was Song Nan; Zhang Lun understands that without Song Nan's help to complete this matter, this glory will not fall on his head, whether it is to fund the establishment of the urban management team to assist or various later measures, he can't think of any one that he can't think of. This kid is extremely shrewd, although as a small hundred households, it is understandable to stammer himself, but the dedication of others, he can not reciprocate, the so-called come and not be rude, today's opportunity, he does not say a few words for him, it is really not authentic.

Zhang Lun pointed out the various measures and means in the market to explain to the emperor and the bigwigs, while looking at the vacant stall to hand over the words, just when he arrived at Yongdingmen Street in Zhengnanfang, Fan Heng, the commander of Dongchang, said: "The little grandfather has a lot of ideas, and when he really takes the door, there is no mediocrity." ”

When everyone agreed, Zhang Lun said: "Actually, this is not my idea alone, speaking of which, one of the 100 households in the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households in Zhengnanfang has helped me a lot, and he has helped me come up with a lot of ideas for the management of the streets of the capital." ”

Fan Heng was shocked, it was a casual flattery, but he didn't expect to be involved with a hundred households of Jinyiwei, the emperor was so happy about this matter, didn't he make it clear that he would give credit to Jinyiwei? Fan Heng was so depressed that he almost pumped his mouth, and hurriedly peeked at the emperor sitting on the horse, but fortunately, the emperor was staring at a sign on the street that said 'The capital is my home, and hygiene depends on everyone', and he didn't seem to hear it.

Fan Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but Mu Bin's voice sounded behind him, and Fan Heng understood that this credit was given.

Mu Bin's ears and eyes are so keen, Zhang Lun's words, he almost laughed out loud, he didn't expect this credit and Jinyiwei's share, the emperor didn't hear it, he had to take over the conversation anyway.

"Commander Zhang, are you talking about a hundred households in my Jinyi Guard Yamen in Nanfang?"

"yes? Look at these slogans and banners with words written on them, they were all his ideas, and the smooth ground over there, with grass and trees planted on them, was also his idea. ”

Hongzhi heard it clearly this time, and asked curiously: "There are still such thoughtful talents in Jinyiwei, Zhang Lun, who is he?" ”
