Chapter 220 The new official takes office (2)
The lobby of the inspection department is not big, and it is even a bit shabby.
There was a three-foot-long case in front of me, a small table for a clerk on the left, and two long-lost Taishi chairs were placed on both sides of the hall. There was no map of Jiangya Mountain and Sea, but a yellowed paper landscape painting and a couplet, and there was no plaque with a "mirror hanging high" above my head.
Despite this, Han Xiufeng was still full of emotion. He looked back at the couple behind him and pondered: "The salary is low and frugal, the official is humble and honest, and the self-esteem is respectful. This pair is well written. As the saying goes, "The honesty brings integrity, integrity brings power!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Datou and the yamen runners of the prefecture yamen carried a basket of handcuffs and shackles, and put them on the ground paved with bluestone with a "clang".
Zao Li Chu Chenggui and Jiang Huai from the Inspection Office looked at the large basket of handcuffs and shackles in front of them. They thought that there were still several large baskets that had not been carried in, and then looked at the big heads with great strength. The two were frightened and thought that the inspector who had just arrived was not easy to serve, and they might be really beaten.
Li Xiucai was also frightened and stood aside nervously and dared not speak.
The archers were all guarding outside the lobby, watching Datou and the yamen runners in the prefecture yamen, they did not dare to come forward to help, nor did they dare to walk around casually, and they did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Fang Shimei had never seen this situation before. He originally planned to take the opportunity of handover to sell the account books of Shangguan who bought with his ex when he took office more than four months ago, including Xiaojing Magistrate, Zhou Tong, Xuezheng, Yunsi Yamen and other Shangguan. However, when Han Xiufeng said, "A clean and honest, integrity brings power", he not only dared not mention it, but also did not want to stay in Hai'an for a long time.
"Master Han, this is an official seal, why not hand it over first."
"Oh, I almost forgot about the main business." Han Xiufeng greeted him and smiled, "Mr. Li, please help me draw a document for the appointment."
"Mr. Han waits for a while, let's draft it now." Li Xiucai recovered and hurriedly sat down.
"Shiheng, help Mr. Li grind ink."
"Yes." Zhang Shiheng didn't care about being proud anymore, so he quickly rolled up his sleeves and brushed ink to serve him.
"Changsheng, check the official seal."
"yes!"
When it comes to the official, Pan Er could see him almost every day when he was in the capital, but it was the first time he was standing in the hall like today. Seeing that the sects and yamen runners who were usually arrogant and honest, he secretly sighed that being an official was powerful. He glanced at Chu Chenggui and Jiang Huai, walked up to take the official seal from Fang Shimei, pretended to check it out, and then took a piece of paper from Li Xiucai's case and used it on the paper.
Han Xiufeng took out the seal from the state yamen, took the paper covered by Pan Ergang, compared the two seals, then looked up and smiled, "Brother Fang waited, and when Ren Wenshu planned to use the seal, Xiufeng would like to send it to Brother Fang again."
"No, no hurry." Fang Shimei hurriedly bowed.
"Brother Fang sits."
Li Xiucai just used the rice dumplings, but the inspection department did not have a clerk. He was just helping with his own home like Han Xiufeng before. Not only did he have no work and food, he even had to bring his own paper candles.
Over the years, the inspector changed the documents like a lantern. It was no problem for him to draft the documents and wrote them in a blink of an eye. Han Xiufeng took the documents that had not dried and looked carefully, and signaled Pan Er to use a seal on them.
It was about to have lunch, and Li Xiucai did not dare to delay the new inspector's work, so he quickly submitted a list of baojia prepared early. The map and a set of covers under the Hai'an Inspection Department were broken. I don't know which year it was Taizhou Chronicle, so that the new inspector could understand the local hometown.
"Okay, I will look back." Han Xiufeng flipped through the Baojia list, then put it down and let Pan Er put it away.
"Report to Mr. Han, this is the key to the yamen."
"Eternal life, keep it."
"Yeah!" The key had to be put away. Pan Er immediately took the key and thought that after eating, he would take the afternoon to visit the door. Who would like to pay a visit to Han Si in the future?
Han Xiufeng didn't know what Pan Er was thinking, and didn't care what he would think. He immediately stood up and walked around the case and bowed, "Brother Fang, I'll send you there."
"Mr. Han stayed there. I've prepared a long time ago. Even the boat was hired. You just arrived at the office and had a lot of official duties, so you really don't need to send them."
"I should send it to you, Brother Fang."
"How can you be so embarrassed?"
"What's wrong with me?"
According to the rules, as long as they were sent to Yimen, Han Xiufeng kept sending the Fang brothers to the "gap" in front of the Chenghuang Temple, watching them get on the boat before returning to the yamen.
Li Xiucai bowed to pay homage.
Chu Chenggui and Jiang Huai came forward to meet.
The archers came to the hall to pay their respects.
After the clerks in the yamen, Zaoli and the archers finished their visits in turn, Han Xiufeng's new official ceremony ended. Li Xiucai accompanied him in the yamen, Chu Chenggui and a group of archers helped Pan Er and Datou and others settle down, while Jiang Huai took a few archers to cook lunch.
"Master Han, these three rooms were originally public rooms for clerks. Later, the inspection office no longer had clerks. Each master only asked one post to write when he was in office, so these two rooms were always empty, and the one in the middle was the one in the middle."
When Han Xiufeng was in Taizhou, he inquired that Li Xiucai was not a local, but from Fu'an, but his home was not far from Hai'an. Fu'an was not only a salt farm of Lianghuai Salt Transportation Bureau, but also under the jurisdiction of Dongtai County, so he was a scholar from Dongtai County.
However, scholars are collectively named students, and scholars are also different from scholars.
The best knowledge is. Those who are in the first grade of the first grade of the subject are called Linshen Students, abbreviated as Linshen Students. There are fixed numbers of places, which vary by state and county size. There are about twenty counties per county. Every year, four taels of silver from county schools can receive subsidies for their living. If they are selected as Linshen Students, they can provide insurance for the children who take the exam.
In the year, those who are listed in the first class of the subject are additionally selected, so they are called enlarged students, referred to as enlarged students; the additional enlarged students are attached to the end of the students, and are called enlarged students, referred to as enlarged students.
Li Xiucai's career was not going well. He passed the exam seven or eight years ago. He has not been able to pass the exam for the hyperplasia in recent years. He doesn't even think about taking the provincial examination for the juren in Jiangning, let alone his epidhi who is not even hyperplasia.
Han Xiufeng has been in the yamen for so many years and is very aware of the iron-clad officials. The two yamen runners and ten archers in the yamen are facing each other. The constant inspections will only be lip service. Li Xiucai, the idle clerk, is very clear-headed.
Next, he had to do big things and make a lot of money. Han Xiufeng didn't want Li Xiucai to continue to get power. Looking at the house where the three archers lived opposite him, he said lightly: "Mr. Li, you are a person with fame. You are too talented in the small yamen of the Inspection Office, and those who are fame and fortune cannot do the job of this clerk."
Li Xiucai didn't expect Han Xiufeng to say this, and quickly took out a bag of silver that he had collected last night: "Master Han, Wansheng is just helping with the copy..."
"What are you doing?" Han Xiufeng pushed his arm aside before he finished speaking, and then smiled and said, "Mr. Li misunderstood. I have never thought that I would not ruin your job. I just think that you are too talented in the library. I plan to hire Mr. Li as a western peddler. If you have something to do, I will help me plan and study for Master Heng. If you have nothing to do, I will do it a year. I don't know if Mr. Li is willing?"
"Mr. Han, is Shiheng your family?"
"It's not my family, but my friend's child. His father is far away from Sichuan to serve an adult. He traveled thousands of miles away and asked him to me. Naturally, I can't watch him abandon his studies."
Fifty taels a year, neither too much nor too little.
More importantly, if he does not agree, the clerk will not be able to continue to do it. Li Xiucai dared not be ignorant of the politeness, so he could only say, "Thank you, Mr. Han, is willing to give me food, but I am willing to do what to do after I go to the Baojia list and the official documents?"
"Some people, some people will take over." Han Xiufeng smiled and suddenly turned around and shouted: "Chuante, Chu Bante!"
Chu Chenggui hurriedly ran to ask, "What are the instructions of Mr. Han?"
"I don't bring my family, and I don't have many family members. In the future, you will move to the second hall to live in and free up the six rooms outside. After dinner, buy a few more thick pieces of wood and seal the windows. Then see if the wall is solid or not. If it is not solid, then think about strengthening it."
"Master Han, there are people selling wood in the town, but why do you have to seal the windows in these houses?"
