In the Great Chu State, it is divided into four levels in Jingzhou Prefecture and County, and each level governs the following ranks.

Anding County is subordinate to Yunlai Prefecture, and Yunlai Prefecture has many county seats.

Yunlai Mansion Ling Sun Zhisu is very big at the moment.

Recently, the Great Chu State has been holding a great competition for casting roads.

This big ratio is similar to the imperial examination.

But it is much more troublesome than the imperial examination.

It is also an attempt by the Great Chu State.

The imperial examination recruits scholars, and pays attention to the economy.

The casting competition is recruiting talents related to casting, and they are young talents.

Those who do the government orders naturally have a very high vision.

He knew very well that the emperor of the Great Chu State attached great importance to this Dabi.

Even when the imperial court held a morning meeting, it was explained that each prefecture must be held seriously.

And there can't be a half-spread pool.

It's like walking a relationship, if you are discovered, you will be cut off directly.

It is precisely because Emperor Xingwu attaches great importance to this big competition that Sun Fuling feels more and more headaches.

Even if you sit in his position, you will still want to climb up.

If you don't do it well, or if you do it mediocre, but you do it better than you somewhere else, what will the emperor think of it then?

But to do it well, you have to master a lot of details.

It was these details that gave him a headache.

"My lord, now, there are a lot of people who cast the Tao in our mansion, and we must first do a good job of safety in this mansion."

Listening to the report of his subordinates, Sun Fuling nodded.

Since it is a holy decree issued by the imperial court, it is natural that many people will participate, and security is also a top priority.

"Let the catchers step up their patrols, if anyone dares to make a mistake, arrest them directly, in addition, let the town of the town also cooperate, many of them are from the rivers and lakes this time, they can't cooperate if they don't cooperate, and when something happens, they will also be responsible."

Sun Fu ordered one by one to promulgate the safety measures.

When it was almost over, he let his men leave to carry out his measures.

The people under his command left the entire room, and only Sun Fuling was left.

"It's a big deal, and it's fair to make sure that first of all I have to make fewer mistakes, at least not to make mistakes, and not to be too good."

Sun Fuling opened the drawer, and inside was a large stack of envelopes.

"What a stupid bunch of people."

"I dare to give gifts at this juncture, and I dare to invite me to a banquet, but I was really discovered, and I won't be able to eat any of them when the time comes."

"Originally, when this kind of thing happened in Anding County, I was already concerned by the saint, but fortunately it was solved, and now I am doing these troublesome things."

"I'm really irritable, I have to go to Anding County tomorrow, after all, it's a place under my jurisdiction, and it's not good not to go once."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache, and finally he felt that it was better to go to bed early.

Tomorrow he is going to Anding County.

The new county order in Anding County also has to take a look.

Thinking of this, Sun Fuling blew out the candle, turned off the lights and rested.

……

Following.

Mornings are a time to refresh.

When the first rays of sunlight shone in through the window, Zhou An put down the book in his hand.

The skill of reading has increased a lot, and he was fascinated by it last night.

Not to mention, this seems to be a thing that takes more time than a lot of things.

"I have to go to the blacksmith shop today, talk to Lao Zhao, and I won't go for the time being." Zhou An put the book aside, stretched, and thought to himself.

For the time being, he wanted to focus on the skill of planing and reading the knife, and then think about other skills after he had reached the fifth level of the liver and the fourth level of the reading liver.

Yesterday, he felt the Qi in his body and found that if he took the Liver of the Ox Knife Technique to the fifth level, he would be able to reach the second-rate realm smoothly.

At that time, his Qi will change, become more refined, and be able to make a qualitative leap.

"That guy Zhao, I guess you'll have to nag me again."

Zhou An stood up, went out early, and ate a bowl of noodles outside, and then strolled around and rushed towards the location of the blacksmith shop.

……

As he expected, when he arrived at the blacksmith shop, after explaining the reason himself, Blacksmith Zhao really talked to him for a long time.

I couldn't do anything about it, so I could only talk and leave the blacksmith shop.

After leaving, he could even hear the sighs of the blacksmith.

Zhou An was relaxed, and after saying goodbye to Blacksmith Zhao, he was ready to buy some food and go home to solve the knife technique.

It's not a thing to eat out every day, and sometimes it's quite delicious to cook by yourself.

"Too expensive, too expensive, cheaper."

"Brother, you have searched all over this street, and if you find something cheaper than me, I will give it all to you."

"Look at your dishes, they're all wilting, it's cheaper."

Zhou An bargained, and finally bought some vegetables and returned home.

All morning, Zhou An spent the whole morning in carving dough.

At noon, he cooked another meal, ate it deliciously, and prepared to continue to practice the Ku Ding Jie Niu Knife Technique.

But before he could knead the dough, he heard a knock on the door.

"Old Zhou, are you at home? Let's go out and see the excitement. ”

Yu Hang's voice was very loud, and the sound insulation of the door was not very good, so Zhou An could hear it clearly.

"Come on, don't knock, don't knock."

Zhou An was speechless, what else is there to see in Anding County?

When he opened the door, he saw Yu Hang with an excited face, pulling his sleeve and planning to go out.

"Wait, tell me first, what do you want to see?" Zhou An asked.

"Didn't you hear the news today, the government order came down, saying that it was to see the new county order."

Yu Hang explained.

"Originally, according to common sense, when the new county order took office, he had to go to the government order to report, but Wu Youde was directly appointed from Beijing, and Anding County did not have a county order, so if he wanted to stabilize the situation, he came directly."

When Zhou An heard this, he felt even more strange.

Does this have anything to do with yourself?

The government order is going to come and inspect it, and there is nothing lively to see.

Before he could ask, Yu Hang could see what Zhou An was thinking, and hurried over.

"You don't know, do you? When the government order came, he saw Wu Youde sleeping soundly, think about it, how angry he was. ”

"No, the government order is angry, you have not been in office for long since the new county order of Anding County, and you don't care about anything, plus it seems that you are going to do something recently, the two things are stacked together, and now you are scolding in the county office, let's go see the excitement."

He was very happy when he mentioned this, he was very unhappy when he saw the county order, and now that the county order was scolded, of course he was happy.

When Zhou An heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.

"This guy really dares, he's still sleeping at this time."

"That's not it, the new official played well with the three fires when he took office, but in fact, he was just a waste material." Yu Hang said.

This kid is very well-informed.

"I heard that it is the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, and I want to select it as soon as possible, so I don't care about other things, so I want to rely on other people's chambers of commerce."

The more Yu Hang spoke, the happier he became.

Zhou An thought about it, he didn't want to make up for this excitement.

But his brother seemed to be very happy, and he thought about going over and seeing, and he didn't waste much time.

What's more, it is also a pleasure to watch Wu Youde's grandson being scolded.

So he followed Yu Hang and went to the county government together.

The two of them walked quickly, after all, they were watching the excitement, and it became cold when they went late.

When Zhou An arrived at the county office, he found that there were already many ordinary people watching the county office.

The voice was a little noisy, and after Zhou An approached, he heard the scolding in the county office.

"What are you doing evacuating the people, let them watch like this, and see how you govern the county?"

"After you came, what did you do, at this time, even if you are fine, you have to sit and sleep in the county office?"

"I know what you're thinking."

"It's true that you are on the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, yes, they have helped you do a good job in the economy here, and they can indeed let you pass the selection."

"Have you ever thought about it, the governance of a place does not only depend on the economy, what are you becoming an official for!"

The noise came from inside the yamen, and Zhou An stood up and looked at it, and was immediately happy.

Wu Youde stood in the lobby with a cower, and in the lobby, a middle-aged man was sitting.

The middle-aged man looks upright, wears an official uniform, and is not angry and arrogant.

In particular, the chest-length beard adds a bit of seriousness and majesty.

"This should be Sun Fuling, scolding well!" Yu Hang muttered.

Zhou An also felt that the scolding was quite good.

Not only the two of them, but even the surrounding people secretly applauded.

In the lobby, Sun Fuling scolded for a while, and he did not shy away from the people.

In this attitude, in fact, in Zhou An's view, it is a very upright thing.

He didn't know who this Sun Mansion Order was, but at least it would make the people very comfortable.

"It's not interesting to go."

But after watching it for a while, he felt that it was not interesting, so he and Yu Hang prepared to leave.

Yu Hang also wanted to study, and the two of them just came to have a good time, and they didn't watch much.

It didn't take long for the two of them to leave the county government directly and rush home.

Sun Fuling was still scolding, and after scolding for a while, he asked Wu Youde to get out.

Wu Youde looked unlucky, but he really couldn't fight with the government order.

After all, this is his direct superior, if you dare to choke with your direct superior, just wait for the bad luck.

Fortunately, everyone is a reader, and the scolding is not very dirty.

Wu Youde was finally relieved after enduring it for a while.

The people saw that there was no excitement, and they all gradually dispersed.

Wu Youde stood below, although he had finished scolding, he didn't dare to leave.

Sun Fuling took a sip of water and moistened his throat.

He's going home.

This time he came here to inspect it, and now he is not satisfied with the results, so he plans to go back to the house and write an excerpt.

Scolding two sentences will not wake up a person, he will hand this fold to the top, and someone will naturally deal with it when the time comes.

As long as you are familiar with Sun Fuling, you know that he is an upright person.

Since he became an official, he has been really outspoken.

Dare to say anything, dare to do anything.

Just like this, an ordinary official, just scolding a couple of sentences, but he has to report it to the top.

Sun Fuling stood up and prepared to leave.

At this moment, a young man dressed in ordinary clothes suddenly walked over.

"My lord, I found someone."

Sun Fuling was slightly stunned, and subconsciously looked at this young man.

Isn't it a great competition for casting the road this time?

This young man is also a forger, named Wang Meng.

However, Wang Meng is not from the rivers and lakes, but an official in Yunlai Mansion.

He is in charge of most of the minerals in Yunlaifu.

Including the right to exploit some mines, which are also under his jurisdiction.

Yunlaifu is huge.

Sun Fuling can't do everything himself, so he also has to delegate some power.

This time, he brought Wang Meng over by the way, in addition to scolding Wu Youde, he also wanted to see the mining rights of Anding County.

After all, it was the holy decree of the Holy Lord himself, the open mining rights, and he thought about touching the minerals within the Yunlai Mansion again by the way, so as not to make mistakes.

That's why I bring professional people with me.

"What could surprise you so much?" Sun Fuling asked.

Don't look at Wang Meng's young age, but in the vein of forging the Dao, he does have some ability.

This time, Wang Meng also participated.

Of course, Sun Fuling didn't dare to do anything, everything was based on his own ability.

This talented young man now looks mysterious, and Sun Fuling is interested.

Wang Meng whispered: "I found a person with a money bag hanging from his waist, with an extraordinary background, I am also a person who casts the Dao, I can see it at a glance......"

Sun Fuling listened, but his eyes became brighter and brighter.

It's a pity that there were too many people at that time, and Wang Meng didn't go out.

However, Wang Meng wrote down the color of the money bag.

"It's ...... Pink a color. ”

After Wang Meng finished speaking, Sun Fuling immediately looked at Wu Youde.

"You guys here have a pink money bag around their waist, do you know who it is?"

Wu Youde was a little confused, and felt that the topic had changed all of a sudden.

But......

As long as you don't scold him, everything is fine.

"Pink Money Bag ......"

Wu Youde racked his brains at this time.

He felt that the time had come for him to curry favor with Sun Fuling.

"Pink Money Bag, Pink Money Bag ......"

Wu Youde thought frantically in his mind.

He always felt familiar, but he couldn't think of who.

At this moment, Sun Zhutou, who had been silent, whispered.

"My lord, didn't Zhou An just carry a pink money bag, and at that time, we were catching fast, and we were laughing at him."

When Wu Youde heard this, he was like being struck by lightning.

He remembered that Zhou An's waist did have a pink money bag.

And it's also very eye-catching.

At a glance, you can see that it is something used by the girl.

Wait a minute!

Wu Youde looked like he had eaten.

Why is everything related to Zhou An?

And looking at the appearance of the government order, it doesn't seem that he is looking for trouble.

"Why am I so unlucky to offend him as soon as I come?"

"It seems like it's too late to remedy."

When I thought of this, especially when I thought of it, even Qi Shuo of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce spoke kindly to Zhou An, and Wu Youde was very uncomfortable.

But he also knows that no matter how much he regrets it at this time, he can't regret it.

"My lord, what you said should be Zhou An, I'll take you over." Wu Youde is humble and humble.

Sun Fuling hurriedly stood up and said, "Hurry up!" ”

Sun Zhutou said on the side: "Don't bother your lord about these things, I just send someone to arrest him, indeed, he dares to offend the county order, it is like a slap in the face of Anding County!" ”

Speaking of this, Sun Zhutou even raised his head proudly.

He felt like he had made the right decision.

Looking at this, it must be that Zhou An has offended the government order, and at this time, he came out to say such a sentence, and the government order will definitely look at it differently at that time.

After all, in his narrow worldview, he thinks that Zhou An must not be in touch with the government order.

If there is a connection, there must be only one way to offend.

Wu Youde's face darkened.

Are you sick?

Didn't you look at the excitement of Lord Fuling?

You don't have any vision other than gifts, do you?

"Someone!"

Wu Youde said angrily: "Pull Sun Zhutou down and hit ten boards!" ”

Sun Zhutou: "? ”

Why are you hitting me again?
