Every year on October 18, Chang'an starts the autumn goods fair, which is opposite to the spring goods fair on March 18, two excellent opportunities to display various goods.

In the spring, merchants from the Western Regions and other countries just procured enough goods from Chang'an and then transported the goods to all over the world.

Therefore, the Spring Goods Fair mainly exhibits things produced by Datang people, which are purchased by merchants from all over the world and then brought to distant places for sale.

It is said that the farthest destination even has to walk for a whole year and a half, arriving at a place called Rome, where people are crazy about all kinds of silk produced in the Tang Dynasty, as well as all kinds of exquisite porcelain that have only appeared in Chang'an in recent years, of course, what really makes the Romans crazy is the various medicines produced in Chang'an Tai Hospital.

There are all kinds of businessmen who come to Chang'an, and there are countless people of all colors, and as for the color of the pupils of the eyes, the Tang people can barely distinguish a rough subject matter.

All the aliens who come to Chang'an, there is no one who is not impressed by the prosperity of Chang'an, in their eyes, this huge city in front of them is the center of the whole world.

No Chang'an person would take a second look at those colorful aliens, just as they never glanced more than the hillbillies from the rest of the Tang Dynasty, they were all hillbillies anyway.

In two days, the Autumn Fair will be held.

This expo mainly exhibits goods arriving in Chang'an from all over the world, which are purchased by Datang merchants and then sold to all parts of Datang.

No matter which commodity fair it is, it will make Chang'an, which is already crowded, extremely crowded.

In particular, Suzaku Street is even more overcrowded, and the 100-meter-wide long street has been cancelled in order to provide more sidewalks.

Even so, the whistle of the bad guy directing the traffic was still blown loudly.

Shen Ru, the chief secretary of Wannian County, came back from the expo venue outside the city, although it was already autumn, he was still sweating all over.

After returning to the official office, he asked the handyman to bring a basin of cool well water, soaked the snow-white towel in the water, took off the heavy official uniform, wrung out the towel, and wiped the whole body up and down, Shen Ru felt that he was clean.

The handyman lit the red clay stove, and when the charcoal in the stove began to burn, he put a brass kettle on the rack, and began to prepare everything for the pot of tea while the water was boiling.

After the brownish tea was poured on the yellow rock sugar and made a slight crackling sound, Shen Ru drank all the sugar tea, and had another cup, and after three reciprocating times, the tea had no sweetness, and Shen Ru felt that his whole body was transparent.

Sitting quietly on the chair and waiting for the sweat to come out, Shen Ru also began to sort out the legends about Chang'an during this time in his mind.

The most serious thing is that his own county order has resigned, and he has become a monk, and his name is Wukong!

For this news, whether it is true or not, Shen Ru is dismissive.

The county order of his own county is the county order in Chang'an, not that the county order wants to be the county order, but the county order of Wannian County can only be made by the county order of his own county.

Although this sentence is very awkward, Shen Ru, the fourth figure of the Tang Dynasty Jinshike, is not willing to speak more clearly at all, if he can understand it, he will naturally understand, and if he can't understand it, what will he tell him?

Therefore, the most Chang'an officials can do is the position of the main book, as for the position of the county order, they may be able to compete for the county order of Chang'an County, as for the main book of Wannian County, it is definitely the highest position that a person can get in Chang'an.

Of course, you can stay in the mansion and become a bigger official, but unfortunately, in Chang'an, what those big officials said may not even be as good as what a county lieutenant in Wannian County, Chang'an, said, compared with his main book.

Shen Ru is a real protégé of the Son of Heaven, belonging to the kind of first batch of papers that were personally approved by the emperor and given to the ranking, and he is also a high-ranking talent who has been given wine by the emperor at the roasted tail banquet.

Therefore, Shen Ru is the courtier in the emperor's pocket.

He knew very well that the emperor sent him to Wannian County as the chief bookkeeper in order to replace Yun Chu as the county magistrate of Wannian County one day.

But even so, Shen Ru still thinks that he can't be the county magistrate of this Wannian County, and even if he is the current chief bookkeeper, he feels extremely difficult.

The county order is not there, what he can do is to try to maintain the existing rules of Chang'an, and the process is not chaotic, so in the year and a half that the county order is not there, Chang'an City is still proceeding steadily according to the plan formulated before, and there is no chaos at all.

The county magistrate is a lazy man, and he has made a lot of plans, including a detailed half-year plan, a one-year plan with a few goals, and a rough three-year plan and a long-term five-year plan.

As long as he supervises the implementation of these plans that have been formulated long ago, and then assesses the progress of the goal, he will complete most of the responsibilities of the main bookkeeper.

Originally, today he was going to stay outside the city all day to supervise the autumn fair, but the heavenly official of the ministry came, and he had to hurriedly end his errand and return to the county government to wait for the heavenly official of the ministry to come.

While waiting for the arrival of the heavenly officials of the Ministry of Officials, Shen Ru, the chief secretary, convened a simple meeting of colleagues from the county government from the eighth rank and above, preparing to inform everyone of the current encounters, so as not to be caught by others to find trouble after meeting the heavenly officials of the Ministry of Officials.

No matter who you are, once you enter the county government of Wannian County, it will be difficult to maintain your true colors, no matter who you are or what you are sent to do, after a little time, you will take the initiative to become an official of Wannian County.

Because, this is a career that is big enough for a person to fight for all his life, and there is also an official environment that he dreams of being an official, and of course, there is a job remuneration that can satisfy everyone's desires.

Dedicated to work, this is the education that everyone must go through when they come to Wannian County to be an official, they can have selfishness and private feelings, but these things are all issues that everyone can discuss in the county canteen after a busy day's work.

Without affecting the overall situation, if you can help flexibly, you can help flexibly, there is really no way to achieve it, so don't think about it, it is something that no matter who comes, it can't be achieved.

Consistent with Shen Ru's opinion, the big guys firmly believe that their county order still has to come back, he is just a monk, and he is not dead, and when he is enough to be a monk, he will come back.

As for what the officials of the Ministry of Heaven are doing this time, the big guy doesn't care much, and he just worships people as mud bodhisattvas every day, and as for meddling in official business, this is absolutely impossible.

Of course, the new county order is coming, and it is excellent to catch the corruption problem of bad people, the renovation of the old city, and the new life campaign of Chang'an City to eliminate rats, mosquitoes, flies, and fleas.

At the end of the year, he will naturally get a generous bonus that makes him secretly cry.

As for other official duties, they naturally need their expertise to handle them.

As for the wanton behavior of the new county order, everyone is not worried, after all, in the small Wannian County and County Yali, there are no less than three officials who can directly go up to the emperor, and there should be no less than ten people who can directly write superstitions to the left and right pavilions and the heads of the six departments, and that's it, not including the people of the mysterious unit of the Baiqi Division.

After simply unifying his thoughts, Shen Ru asked the officials to open the door of the county yazhong and wait for the arrival of the officials of the ministry.

In fact, Shangguan rarely comes directly to the Yamen of Xiaguan, and some things are usually solved in the pavilion or other courtyards, and even if they want to go to the door, they basically come early in the morning and never spend noon in the Yamen.

This time, a group of officials and heavenly officials came to Wannian County in the afternoon, which was really weird.

Therefore, when I heard that the heavenly officials were coming, the faces of the officials of Wannian County who came out to greet them were not very good-looking.

Walking in the front is the Marquis of Chengyang, the prince's guest, Liu Xiangdao, the secretary of the ministry, followed by Liu Xiangdao is Si Yuan Taichang Bo Si Xian Dou Xuande, Xitai Shilang Yang Wu, the inspection of the school Dongtai Shilang, Anping County Gong Li Anqi, Daoguo Gong, the inspection of the school prince Zuozhong Dai Zhide......

Just by seeing the people in front of him, Shen Ru's brows furrowed tightly, not for anything else, just because these people are basically people who will become prime ministers after one more step, among them, the official department will definitely enter the cabinet for another half a year.

Although Wannian County is very important, it is not important enough to require these people to come to Wannian County to promulgate any news.

Liu Xiangdao, the secretary of the ministry, saw that Shen Ru only nodded, and didn't even mean to say hello, so he motioned for Shen Ru to lead the way in front and go straight to the lobby.

After entering the lobby, Liu Xiangdao first saluted in the direction of Luoyang, where the emperor was located, and then stood up straight and said, "How is Shen?" ”

Shen Ru came out of the crowd and saluted: "The lower official is here!" ”

Liu Xiangdao said with a smile: "You have been training in Chang'an for two years, and you can be the commander of Wannian County." ”

Shen Ru, who had already guessed this result, said in a deep voice: "Although the lower official has been training in Wannian County for two years, it is a pity that the truth is not comprehended by thirty percent, if it is a county order at this time, it will definitely bring disaster to Wannian County, therefore, Weichen respectfully asks His Majesty the Emperor to withdraw his order, and Shen Ru is willing to experience a few more years in the main bookkeeper." ”

Da Sixian Dou Xuande frowned and said, "Do you want to resist the decree?" ”

Shen Ru continued: "If virtue is not matched, there will be disaster, and the virtue of the lower official is not enough to be the official of the Zhengyin Hall of Wannian County. ”

Dongtai waiter Li Anqi said: "Who can do it?" ”

Shen Rudao: "The former Lantian County Prince, Yunchu. ”

Daoguo Gong Dai Zhide said: "Now, Yun Chu resigned and escaped into Buddhism, what should I do?" ”

Shen Ru straightened up and said: "Then it's empty, when Yun Chu is tired of being a monk, maybe he will come back and be willing to continue to be the county commander." ”

Liu Xiangdao said with a smile: "Yun Chu has not been in Chang'an for a year and a half, and the old man is still prosperous and rich in Chang'an, isn't it all the credit of your master book?" Now, it's just one step further, what's so difficult? ”

Shen Ru arched his hand and said: "The county prince of Lantian has already made arrangements, and I just want to implement it step by step." ”

Li Anqi said angrily: "In this way, you are just a corpse on top of it. ”

Shen Ru said with a smile: "What the county duke said is very good, how about having the lower officials play on behalf of the Wannian County officials, and jointly elect the county magistrate as the county magistrate of Wannian County, after all, the county duke of Lantian deserves it, and you are the county duke of Anping County, and it is not considered to have insulted you." ”

Li Anqi roared angrily: "Bold! ”

Shen Ru straightened his waist and said lightly: "If you don't mean to be the county commander, why don't you go back, and when the county prince of Lantian is tired of playing, maybe he will come back."

You still don't want to make trouble for my Chang'an. ”
