Chapter 330: Music and Dance
As the saying goes, there are three fires for new officials to take office, and Shi Zhifu is no exception.
After the handover with his predecessor, the Shi Governor's Mansion took over the Great Seal of the Government and carried out the worship ceremony of all the government officials.
When the officials greeted in the lobby, the prefect Shi issued his first order after taking office.
He asked Guo Tong, the magistrate, to summarize all the cases involving the oppression of the people by arrogant forces in Suzhou City in the past two years and report them to the public.
And not only the cases that have been tried, but also the lawsuits that have been inadmissible for various reasons must also be summarized together.
A public figure with a little experience can understand at a glance that the new prefect is going to fight the underworld and eliminate evil again?
It stands to reason that it should be a very common routine for new officials to start by cracking down on local underworld and powerful forces, and it is not worth making a fuss.
Compared with other affairs, the crackdown on gangsters has quick results, great influence, and few side effects, which can be called the most cost-effective job for new officials.
But the problem is that this is Suzhou City, and Suzhou City has Lin Daguan, a new type of heroism that has broken through the tradition.
Most of the traditional heroes are indeed underworld forces, and although Lin Daguan is black enough, he doesn't seem to be so evil.
There are no ordinary people who have been forced to sell their children and daughters through tax collection, and there is no large-scale money lending to open gambling houses.
Therefore, although Lin Daguan has a good reputation and claims to have injured more than 1,000 people under his hands, he actually does not have much public anger among the people.
There is no public outrage about other things like lowering salt prices, opening new city gates to ease traffic congestion, giving Suzhou relief from arrears of money and grain over the past decade, and increasing jobs.
After coming out of the lobby, all the officials talked about it, some people said that the background of the new prefect was hard, so the artist was bold; Some people also say that the new prefect does not know the real situation of the place, so it is stupid and bold.
No matter what the big and small officials think, the new prefect's order has come down, and Guo Tuiguan should follow it or do it.
As we all know, Guo Tuiguan was originally Guo Xiancheng of Wu County, who assisted Lin Daguan and his hard work and was promoted to the government officials.
Therefore, Guo Tuiguan is undoubtedly a hardcore Lin faction in the officialdom of Suzhou Mansion.
Seeing that the prefect wanted to collect information and clues about the local tyrannical forces, Guo Tuiguan immediately sent his cronies to accompany Guo Guang and report to Lin Daguan.
Lin Daguan has too many strongholds in Suzhou, and it is not easy for ordinary people to find Lin Daguan.
However, Guo Tuiguan knew that Lin Daguan's main business recently was to organize Cao Yun, and he spent most of his time in the Suzhou Garrison Army Branch.
After listening to Guo Guang's report, Lin Daguan smiled and said: "If you arrive a little late, I will leave and set off directly for Yangzhou tomorrow." ”
Guo Guang asked respectfully: "My lord is still waiting for the reply of the big official." ”
Lin Daguan said: "Tell your master that you don't need to worry too much, everything is just as usual, if there is any problem, I will talk about it when I come back from Yangzhou." ”
Guo Guang sent the word back, Guo Tuiguan was speechless for a long time, at this time, Lin Tailai still dared to leave Suzhou and go to Yangzhou?
It should be said that this Lin Tailai is big-hearted, or arrogant enough to look down on the prefect?
The prefect is a four-pin Huangtang, especially the prefect of Nanzhili, who can directly connect with the imperial court, and can't take the prefect too seriously, right?
Not to mention that the background of this stone prefect is also very hard, and it is supported by the entire Qingliu force.
But Lin Daguan was really not as inactive as Guo Tuiguan thought, and after sending away Guo Guang, who had reported the news, Lin Daguan thought about it for a while and went to Shenfu.
At this time, Second Master Shen was in the side courtyard, personally training several sixteen or seventeen-year-old prostitutes to practice a new repertoire.
He also carried a small stick in his hand, and when he saw or heard something wrong, he struck at the thickest part of the prostitute's body.
Lin Daguan stood at the head of the courtyard, and after seeing this scene, he suddenly became a little jealous of Second Master Shen.
I feel that Second Master Shen's day is life.
Shen Yongjia caught a glimpse of Lin Tailai with a complicated expression, and asked in surprise, "Which one do you feel sorry for?" For you? ”
"It doesn't mean that!" Lin Daguan hurriedly said: "Actually, I came here today to remind the second master!" ”
Second Master Shen said suspiciously: "Is there any big thing that can specifically let you run to remind you personally?" Could it be that my father stepped down? ”
Lin Daguan: "."
Second Master Shen's intuition was really amazing, and he almost guessed the correct answer.
"Otherwise, what else is there that can make you run errands in person?" Shen Yongjia asked rhetorically.
Lin Daguan replied: "I heard that the first fire of the new prefect after taking office is to fight Haoqiang.
So I hereby remind the second master, don't be careful, don't be caught. ”
Second Master Shen couldn't help laughing: "Some people say that the older the rivers and lakes, the less courage they have, and that's true!"
Just a prefect, can you still make us afraid? Where did your Lin Tailai's pride go? ”
Lin Daguan didn't blow it with Shen Erye, and continued to persuade: "The situation has been tense recently, I think the Taohuawu demolition and repair project can be suspended, don't be caught!" ”
Second Master Shen was unconvinced and said, "What kind of situation is tense? How can I not feel it at all? ”
Lin Daguan was still persuading bitterly: "The Taohuawu garden repair project involves the demolition and merger of a large number of residential land, which is a very sensitive matter under the current situation, and maybe there will be some trouble."
The prefect of Nashi is looking for a typical case, and the second master must not lose a big one because of a small one, in case it is not beautiful if it is rectified by the prefect. ”
Second Master Shen said angrily: "Who dares to rectify me? How did you Lin Tailai become so bold? Give Shi Zhifu ten guts, and he can't find out our Shen family! ”
Second Master Shen really didn't know what Lin Tailai was thinking, what he was worried and afraid of.
Lin Daguan is still persuading: "Second master, don't be impulsive, it's not a matter of being afraid." Be careful to sail the ship of 10,000 years, there is really no need to commit crimes against the wind! ”
Second Master Shen felt that his dignity as a son of Zaifu had been provoked, how much did Lin Tailai look down on himself?
Could it be that just one prefect can clean up the second master of the Shen Mansion? Are you kidding!
Seeing that Lin Daguan couldn't persuade Shen Yongjia, and even persuaded him more and more, he could only leave for the time being.
Second Master Shen felt that this was the first time in more than a year that he had overwhelmed Lin Tailai in momentum.
After seeing Lin Daguan walk away, Second Master Shen waved his hand to the prostitutes: "Then play music, then dance!" ”
The construction of the Shenjia Garden cannot be stopped! Instead, speed up and work harder!
After the garden is built, you must catch Lin Tai to come and write poems!
After leaving the Shen Mansion, Lin Daguan went out of the city and spent the night in the Lin family compound in Hengtang Town.
Then he prepared to set off directly to Yangzhou City to receive his property and women after meeting his subordinates on the second day.
Zuo Dharma Protector Zhang Wen couldn't help but ask: "Suzhou is an eventful autumn, do you really want to go to Yangzhou to sit in the museum?" Aren't you afraid of a fire in your backyard? ”
In the face of an absolute confidant like Zhang Wen, Lin Daguan revealed a few words and said: "Actually, the target of Shi Zhifu is not me, why am I in a hurry?" ”
