Chapter 125, busy
Cao Jinhua is capricious, but the official is more capricious. He no longer persuaded him, and directly let the yamen's messengers do it.
If Shen Shi was just a scholar, they would have to suffer, but Shen Shi was not a scholar, he was a monk.
I saw that he had a fan in his hand, and the poor people couldn't get close at all, so he was deflected by his palm fan, and he couldn't touch people at all, let alone take people.
As for them, as well as the official spirit of this official office, it is an obstacle to communicating with heaven and earth, but for an orthodox monk of the three sects like Shen Shi, who has evolved himself and attributed all his great power to himself, this bit of official spirit is really nothing.
To put it bluntly, officialdom is a kind of power. I don't understand, I'm suppressed, and I'm determined...... It's not surprising how it was grammed. But if you get it, that's it.
"What's the matter with you? Quick, get him out! β
How to rush? This man knows how to do sorcery. Before he could get close, he was pushed away by a force.
Shen Shi escorted Cao Jinhua inside, and when he got closer, he could smell a faint woman's fragrance on the tip of his nose.
"It seems that she dresses up as a man, and there are benefits, at least not to be poisoned by chemicals. Shen Shi saw Cao Jinhua's plain makeup and suddenly remembered. For example, rouge gouache contains lead, and it is not a good thing to use too many cosmetics like this.
"Huh, maybe you can try selling perfumes and cosmetics or something. β
Pure chemical products are not liked by anyone in later generations. In later generations, pure natural cosmetics became popular, such as perfume quenched from alcohol, volcanic ash and seaweed mud for decontamination, and cucumber slices sticking to the face...... Don't sell too crazy.
What's more, they have no technical content at all, volcanic ash, seaweed mud, just dig it, as for what technology, international leading or something...... If you believe in it, you will have ghosts, and it would be nice if they could be washed.
Cucumbers are grown, they can be eaten, they can be applied to their faces, and they can be done by themselves.
The only thing that has technical content is perfume, winemaking, purified into alcohol. In ancient times, there was no such technology, but how difficult is the distillation and purification method, but anyone who has studied chemistry, does anyone not understand?
These are all things that can be made to make money.
Shen Shi thought casually, and he and Cao Jinhua quickly rushed to the main hall, where the servants worked.
Hehe, three people.
One is tasting tea, and the other is reading in tea. The last one was doing something, he was reading the newspaper.
Of course, the newspaper he reads is not the entertainment gossip of later generations, or the financial horse newspaper or something, he reads the official newspaper.
Whatever new policies the imperial court has, they will be written on it. So he's doing things. Of course, what he did was different from the "office" of the ministry, but no one said that he was working.
"Who are you?" a year-old official stood up and said sternly, "I don't know what kind of place this is?
"Why didn't I see it?" Cao Jinhua didn't encourage them at all, and she also said sternly, "He waited outside for a day, and you didn't see him, but he was hiding here drinking tea and reading, what do you want to do?"
"Presumptuous!" the official was annoyed.
"Hey, Gongzi Cao, don't be angry. Don't you just want us to work for your friends? We'll do it, we'll do it. β
The other two are not like young officials, they recognize Cao Jinhua at a glance, whether they are the queen's sister or the brother of the richest man in the Great Song Dynasty. Cao Jinhua can be pursued by many people, even those who have died, and Cao Jinhua is also a member who needs to be remembered.
That is, the young man, with shallow eyelids, does not know her.
Two recognized, one appeased Cao Jinhua, and the other waved his hand to let the messenger step back, and immediately entered the file for Shen Shi.
When foreign officials go to Beijing, they all have this necessary step. This is also a criterion for the imperial court to examine officials.
It takes two days, three days, ten days and half a month to get there...... It's all different.
"You're the official of the Northlands, aren't you?"
The officials who entered the file for Shen Shi worked hard to "chat" while entering the file for Shen Shi.
It is said to be small talk, but it has a great purpose. Shen Shi was "brought" by Cao Jinhua. Who is he Cao Jinhua? Is it her relative or friend? Or is this tomboy who has taken a fancy to someone else and changed sex.
After a long time, many people have forgotten the third lady of Caofu and directly regarded her as the "third young master".
Today's scene, whether it is for the sake of gossip or for a deep understanding of Shen Shi, the number one character, "small talk" is necessary. Even the others couldn't help but crane their necks to listen.
"It's not. I am a Jinhua person, a literary send. Shen Shi reported his own information.
"What? You're not from the north?"
The official's hand shook and he almost drew the file.
At the same time, Cao Jinhua, who was appeased and holding a fragrant tea, heard it, and seeing his surprised appearance, she couldn't help but ask: "Is there anything else to say about this south and north?"
The official who appeased her replied very courteously: "Master Cao, you don't know something. The hateful Xifu robbers invaded Zhejiang North Road, swept away ten rooms and nine emptiness, and there were not a few people who lost their positions and left their posts, and many people were taken captive by the Xixia people..."
His explanation, to put it bluntly, is that there is a shortage of officials in Zhejiang at present, and then the activities of the Great Song Dynasty will be opened.
The countryside is like the south of the sea and the south of the clouds, and which one does not want to move north. To the north, close to Western Xia and Liao, it is too dangerous, and they also want to go south. Zhejiang is close to the capital and the rich places of Yuhang, which is of course a good place. There is no sending, let alone waiting for an officer.
"Cao Gongzi, you also saw it. For this matter, the adults in the ministry have made their heads big. Just a few of us are left to wander around here. β
To say that it is to circumvent is an errand that offends people. Even the Shangshu adults in the Ministry of Officials had to hide, so you can imagine the horror of this gang of running officials.
If it weren't for the fact that they were small officials and had no backers, they wouldn't want to stay here.
"You too. Since you are an official from Zhejiang, what kind of horse do you say? You are not an official in the north, what kind of horse do you have? Next time you come, you should take a sedan chair. That way, we won't be misunderstood. β
And, this hour turned out to be because of the horse.
However, although he said that he was complaining, he was actually pointing at Shen Shi. This is not only for Cao Jinhua's face, but also for Shen Shi's sake.
If Shen Shi was a military attachΓ©, they wouldn't have said this, because it was useless to say it, military generals rode horses, civil officials rode sedan chairs, and the court system.
That is, the officials in the north, always facing the invasion of the Khitans, they have horses, do not take sedan chairs, all ride horses, and they can pay back.
This is the Great Song Dynasty, even if the civil officials violate the ancestral system, as long as they can live, there are few heads in the imperial court. But if it falls into the hands of the Khitans, it will be difficult to say.
Killed! worse than dead! Which one to choose?
