Chapter 29: The Little Beggar on the Dock

The gate officials are relatively special in the local area, and in terms of political system, they act in accordance with the local government, and in terms of administrative orders, they obey the command of the governor of Caoyun, Yamen Zonghe.

It seems that in the political system of the 21st century, there is a dual-track system.

On the surface, Zonghe and the local government are at peace, but in fact, why do people in the capital want to put Zhao Xiong in Hanzhuang is because they have taken a fancy to his Leng Touqing character.

You are so easy to be a nine-grade gate official, don't say that a seven-grade director does not have the right to appoint, or he does not even have the right to suggest.

Director Feng received an order from his superiors before he came to participate in the Red Day again, asking him to appoint Zhao Xiong as the official of the Hanzhuang Gate, and he just came to announce it and make a sum of money.

In fact, Zhao Xiong really picked up a leak.

The little prince of the Dewang Mansion received information that Li Hai had been a little unstable recently, and he thought about it again and again and decided to give up Li Hai.

But who will be the gate official of the first gate in Shandong!

He wanted to find someone who would be loyal and able to do things, and after thinking about it, he thought of Zhao Ming's younger brother, so he told Zhao Ming about it and asked him to think about it.

He knew that the position of the first gate in Shandong was an outlet, and the former gangster Zhao Xiong was sitting in that position, and it would definitely not take long for him to get into trouble.

This made Zhao Ming very embarrassed!

But since he went back to Zhuangzi half a year ago and saw Zhao Xiong, he found that his younger brother actually hid great wisdom, so he changed his original intention.

Otherwise, with his Zhao Xiong's character and qualifications, he would not be able to turn at all.

In the past, with Zhao Xiong's Leng Touqing character, it is estimated that he really made a lot of trouble, and now Hanzhuang is in a delicate balance.

But Zhao Xiong didn't know it at this time!

Zhao Xiong has always wanted to be promoted in his previous life, but in his early 30s, he is not even a section chief, and he has made a good start in this life.

Zhao Xiong compared the gate official Jiupinguan, that is, the section chief of the previous life, with his age of 16, what is there to be dissatisfied with being the section chief.

So he walked to the blue cloth sedan chair with great interest, and the two sedan chair drivers, who were about thirty or forty years old, nodded when they saw him coming, and did not dare to make a sound.

Zhao Xiong looked up and down at the blue cloth sedan chair, it was indeed the nine-rank official sitting on the tin top, as the saying goes, the blue and white sedan chair carried by the two of them.

In order to prevent the corruption and degeneration of the ruling system, Wu Taizu strictly ordered that the ministers of civil and military affairs could only ride horses, not cars and sedan chairs.

People go tea and cool, people die and the government rests, from Pingtai to Yongping Dynasty in the past few decades, almost all the officials travel in a sedan chair, and it is very rare to ride a horse.

Even the small landlords in the countryside were "all small-shouldered, and none of them rode horses."

Of course, in the past ten years, the officials who are poor and extravagant have abused the post car drivers.

At present, due to the endless occurrence of illegal and transgressive sedan chairs in the imperial court, the palanquin in the court has become the best excuse for mutual impeachment within the official group.

Dog-bite-dog-hair!

However, in this era, as a show-off consumer product, the sedan chair has become the best carrier of pomp and face, even if it is dozens of steps, you have to take the sedan chair.

Almost all the officials of the Dakang Dynasty were fanatical obsessives with luxury sedan chairs.

Zhao Xiong had sat in a sedan chair once when he was traveling in his previous life, and he was very novel when he first entered, but he was dizzy to the sedan chair man in two minutes, so he had a phobia of sedan chairs.

Zhao Xiong walked over after admiring it, ignoring the blue cloth sedan chair carried by the two, and felt uncomfortable when he looked at it.

Fu Qi was stunned there for a while, and he didn't know that the Ninth Master didn't like this mouthful!

Zhao Xiaodonkey has been his partner since he was a child, so he called him to follow Zuo Liangyu, and walked to the dock with Liu Tongxun and others.

Where the trestle bridge was close to the steps of the pier, there was actually a person sitting on the ground, and Fu Qi caught up and was about to dare to step forward and blast that person away, but Zhao Xiong, who was unwilling to sit in a sedan chair, stopped him.

Zhao Xiong, who woke up, always felt that he was out of place with this world, and through memory, he also knew that there were more low-level people in this society who were not accepted by this world.

Zhao Xiong will always have sympathy for good comrades who have received party education.

Zhao Xiong took a closer look and saw that he was indeed a beggar, his fluffy hair covering most of his face, and his tattered clothes were tightly wrapped around his body.

Wearing a pair of rag shoes, I am not afraid of the cold.

There was also a broken bowl and a dog-beating stick on the side of the straw mat.

He stood still in front of the beggar, and then reached into the leather button around his waist, and in this small leather button was the change given to him by the little sister Cuicui.

Touching a copper plate is not a copper coin, and Zhao Xiong never brings a copper coin.

A copper plate the size of a cigarette box is equivalent to ten yuan now, Zhao Xiong didn't know how much a thin piece of copper plate was worth in the economic environment at this time, so he bent down and threw it into the beggar's bowl gently.

Looking at this time, the little officials behind him were so heartbroken.

The little beggar raised his head, and the distance between the two eyes was only two or three feet, but the little beggar's dirty face had a pair of eyes as clear as water.

When his eyes collided, the little beggar was a little flustered, and the little beggar, who was half-squatting and half-kneeling, instinctively shrank back a little, hugged his chest with both hands, and looked at Zhao Xiong vigilantly.

Zhao Xiong smiled and whispered, "Don't be afraid, take it to buy something to eat." ”

The beggar with his hair scattered looked at the copper plate in the bowl, stretched out his hand silently and took out the copper plate and handed it to Zhao Xiong, shook his head and said no.

Zhao Xiong smiled slightly and took out the stove, reached out to hold the beggar's right hand, and put the stove on the little beggar's hand.

At this time, he felt the little beggar's right hand tremble, and Zhao Xiong saw that the little beggar's hand was a little dirty, but the skin under the sleeves was very white and tender.

"Give you the stove, you put away this copper plate, go buy a steaming pasta to eat, warm up."

Zhao Xiong let go of the little beggar's hand and straightened up, and then whispered to Fu Qi.

"You take the people to the town and on the docks, count the number of people like him, and tell them to wait for dinner time in Yamen Square.

Zhao Xiaodonkey, you take someone to burn a big pot and cook a few pots of porridge, and when the time comes, you will send two baked cakes to each person who makes porridge, go quickly. ”

Zhao Xiaodonkey and Fuqi glanced at each other, the ninth master is going to give porridge to support the people!

"Order!"

At this time, Zuo Liangyu was standing behind the ox cart not far away, and there was a man in a green coat with a thief's eyebrows secretly looking at their group.

He drew his short knife and shaved his beard on his chin, and with a green-skinned face, the man was frightened and hurried away.

At this time, the little beggar glanced at Zuo Liangyu and ignored it, and also found something, looked left and right, and did not see anyone peeping, but he was relieved.

At this time, the little beggar who breathed a sigh of relief held the copper plate in his left hand and the stove in his right hand, then raised his head, met Zhao Xiong's smiling gaze, and immediately lowered his head and hugged the copper plate and the stove to his chest.

Zhao Xiong, who was tall and tall, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly turned his head suddenly.

"Qingshan, don't scare the child, let's go!
