Chapter 192: Waiting
Liu Yifeng sat on a chair bored, this is a room at the headquarters of the Dongshan Prefecture Maritime Safety Bureau, and there are 8 chairs, he feels that this room is a bit of a waiting room for the future.
He guessed right, it was really a waiting room. But he's not waiting for someone to come and speak to him, he's done speaking, he's waiting for someone to take him out.
There are soldiers at the headquarters of the Maritime Safety Administration, all of whom are armed with spring wheel handcuffs. I don't know if it's because of Liu Yifeng's height, these Nanjun, who are in charge of the security of the headquarters of the Maritime Safety Administration, looked at him with vigilance in their eyes.
Liu Yifeng didn't want to challenge their authority, and after speaking, he was told to wait here honestly, and he really waited, with no water to drink and no chance to urinate.
Just after he endured the defecation by shaking his legs again, a little guy finally came.
"How long do I have to wait?"
The little guy put down a pot of water and said, "I don't know either." ”
"Is the meeting over there?"
"Not yet, I've already notified the kitchen to cook, and I guess I'll continue to open it after dinner."
Liu Yifeng suddenly felt very powerless, and it seemed that he had to wait stupidly.
But now we still need to solve the physiological problem first: "Can I go to the toilet?" ”
After following the little guy to soak in urine, Liu Yifeng, who was relaxed, returned to the waiting room and saw another little guy holding a tray with a few bowls on it waiting there.
"What is this?"
"This is the dinner arranged by Lord Song, just put the bowl at the door after you finish eating, and naturally someone will come to clean it up."
Liu Yifeng: That's a touch.
After hearing that the officials of the Maritime Safety Bureau were going to eat a working meal to continue the meeting, he was ready to wait hungry and wait. Unexpectedly, Song Yingxing actually thought of him and brought him a working meal. Although the taste is very ordinary, Song Yingxing remembers that his heart made him very happy to eat.
In fact, it was not that Song Yingxing remembered him, but when the meeting was at its climax, many officials were lamenting that Liu Yifeng, who proposed the new currency, was a ghost. sighed too much, and Song Yingxing remembered that Liu Yifeng was still locked in the waiting room.
For two whole hours in the afternoon, from the incomprehension and disdain after Liu Yifeng's speech, to the epiphany and suddenness when Liu Yifeng discussed after he left, to the exclamation and shock when arguing with each other, they had already discovered that the proposal of this new currency was like a glass of water in front of a person who was dying of thirst in the desert for Dongshan Prefecture.
Is the new currency possible?
It is too feasible to not only solve the problem of gold panning in Jinshan City, but also solve the problem of the future development of Dongshan Prefecture.
Is there a lot of resistance to a new monetary solution?
It's too big......
To put it mildly, independent coinage is contrary to tradition. Speaking of which, do you Dongshan Prefecture think that the Tiangao Emperor wants to rebel far away?
Lu Ge now clasped his hands tightly together, his eyes revealing a strong fighting spirit for a while, and a lot of worry for a while.
He found that he had been unable to find a solution to the difficulty, but he could be solved in his lifetime, and even if he was a leader, he could shine for this plan, and Lu Ge, who was completely a career brain, felt that he was 20 years younger.
But at the same time, he was very worried, worried that he would not be able to convince Xu Guangqi, that he would not be able to convince His Majesty, that he would not be able to fight the cabinet, and that he would be accused of rebellion for thousands of years.
So he stared at the officials who spoke, listening carefully to their every word, trying to find the usefulness that would help him in his task.
"Lu Lao, let's eat first."
The little guy put the rice in front of Lu Ge, and Lu Ge moved his chopsticks and put them down: "Hey, Ying Xing, I have no appetite." ”
Song Yingxing knew that he was worried about the new currency, and said: "Lu Lao, the matter of the new currency is a protracted war, you can't go back and forth to the mainland and Dongshan Prefecture several times, and if your health is not good, our Dongshan Prefecture will have fewer generals." ”
Lu Ge reluctantly ate a few bites of rice, and finally put down his chopsticks. In fact, his daily diet can be described as nutritious, and not eating a meal is a light fast, which is relatively healthy.
"Ying Xing, where is that young man?"
"Old Lu, don't worry, it's already arranged, you won't be hungry for that kid."
"Oh, that's good." The corners of Lu Ge's mouth, which had been tightening, finally loosened a little: "I only remember now, I have seen that young man." ”
Song Yingxing immediately became interested, and he found that Liu Yifeng's social background was a little too wide? He has met the current manager of the Dongshan Prefecture Maritime Safety Bureau, and he knows Zhang Jun, a high-level officer of the Dongshan Prefecture Navy, and now he is the first manager of the Dongshan Prefecture Maritime Safety Bureau.
"Old Lu, where have you seen him?"
"The Land Hall of Yushan City, it was a few months ago. The main thing is that he was born too tall and impressed. ”
"Lu Lao, if you were just too tall, you probably wouldn't remember it until now."
Lu Ge smiled and said, "And the young man's speech at that time, he hit the nail on the head and said the dilemma faced by Dongshan Prefecture. At the time, I thought it was a big trading house family that had raised the next generation, and I heard some from the elders. Now it seems that he can see it completely by his own eyes. ”
Song Yingxing didn't speak, and nodded silently.
The new currency plan proposed by Liu Yifeng has conquered the entire Dongshan Prefecture Maritime Safety Bureau, which is indeed a very dangerous trick, but it can indeed solve many problems in Dongshan Prefecture. Therefore, the last topic of discussion before the meal has changed from whether this plan is feasible or not, and unconsciously becomes how to implement and avoid risks.
It is normal for the person who can put forward this plan to say the dilemma of Dongshan Prefecture when he first arrives in Dongshan Prefecture.
"Ying Xing, is he famous?"
Song Yingxing had already guessed what Lu Ge wanted to say when he heard this: "Old Lu, this kid wants to spread his own way, I recruited him twice in total, but he was politely refused." Now I threaten him with the credit of discovering gold mines to wash away his smuggling, and he is willing to be this consultant. ”
Lu Ge's expression was very helpless, he shook his head and sighed.
More than 40 years ago, Xianyun Yehe was a very small number of people, and most of them gave him an official, and he could kneel down and call you dad in private.
But all that changed in the Wanli Dynasty.
"Hey, if Your Majesty knew that his original sentence 'a good man should go to the Quartet' would have today's consequences, he probably wouldn't have said that when he was recognized in Weifu during his private visit to the Lantern Festival in Tianfu that year."
Song Yingxing also shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Old Lu, you haven't known for a long time in Dongshan Prefecture that in the past few years, Fujian and Liangguang didn't even have enough talent. ”
Lu Ge laughed when he heard this.
He was not only the first person in charge of Dongshan Prefecture, but also a member of the Maritime Safety Bureau and the Southern Army to establish the Annam Metropolitan Protectorate. After the establishment of the Annam Metropolitan Protectorate, the main source of talents was the young people of Fujian and Guangzhou. How many young people in these places are no longer entangled in gaining fame and fame, and go to Annan to become officials, just as glorious and wealthy.
This trend is still expanding, and there are more and more young people in the entire coastal provinces of the Ming Dynasty. Among them, there are even people who have refused the recruitment of their hometown parents, and they still don't look down on those seven-grade sesame officials, they want to be the pioneers of the Ming Dynasty and their wives and sons!
So it is really not uncommon for Liu Yifeng to reject Song Yingxing.
It's just that a man who gained his freedom by smuggling firearms, politely refused a fourth-grade official of the Maritime Safety Bureau, and the new generation of officialdom in Dongshanzhou, the nominal Emperor of the Soil, the new generation of officialdom that Emperor Wanli was very optimistic about, and the next chief steward of the Maritime Safety Bureau was really unique.
