Chapter 204 Private use of the bus
Government office food and dormitory.
The sky was not as dark as it was, and a cumulative rain cloud drifted to the upper house of Hangzhou City. As the sunset fell, it drizzled for a moment.
The officialdom has always been a matter of [officials do not build yamen], but this is not because of financial pressure. The financial pressure has never been pressured. The Qing magistrate has been 100,000 silver in three years. Why can’t he afford to build yamen? However, if he is a official for only three years, even if he is re-elected, he will only last six years. Besides, who is expected to stay in office for six years? Why can’t he be promoted? Isn’t it good to get the money from building yamen into his own pocket?
Whether it is Feng Shui superstition, psychological effects, or corruption, there is no reason to build a yamen. Over time, this sentence will naturally flow out [Officials do not build a yamen]
The light rain drizzled a dilapidated food wardrobe, and some officials simply ate in the corridor with bowls.
Some readers may ask, "Ah, there is also a canteen?" Of course, there is one. If you look for "Wanshu Miscellaneous Notes", you have to leave the public account if you buy chickens, ducks and pigs. What's the case? It's better to fetch the public's wool, can you go back and eat yourself!
A green-robed official stood at the corner of the corridor and ate while complaining that the food was not good. A civil servant next to him. The so-called civil servant is a rank of officials in the imperial court. Although his status is not high, he also has the power to talk to the lower-level officials. When people are lucky, they will be promoted to small officials.
There are very few officials of this type of official rituals, and the country is about 10,000, which is considered the lowest level of officials. In addition, there are a large number of non-official rituals, called posting, helping, and name-listing. These three types of official literati have a huge structure. Hou Fangyu, one of the four princes in the late Ming Dynasty, once said in his notes: Today, the misfortune of redundant personnel, the land of a county is as small as more than a thousand, and the most are as many as thousands...
There are thousands of people in a county who eat the government's finances, which is the least... The wool that can be pulled from the public is naturally very fragrant.
The official at this time said to the green-robed official: "Brother Zhuangmiao, just eat it... The person in charge of the food mattress was the cook recommended by Eryin last month..." He said, looking around, and whispered: "The cook's figure is like a slutch, tsk! Wearing a Yangzhou look, it is obviously the fat around my waist, but I'm ready to move after seeing it, I'm afraid it's so great that Eryin likes..."
The green-robed little official cut at this time, "The two Yins are going to be finished, I'm so afraid..." The official of the scriptures immediately said, "How could it be? Brother Zhuang Miao, tell me carefully."
There is no secret in this yamen? The green-robed official briefly said the man's discussion, and finally he gloated and said: "This time, the second Yin will be demoted even if he doesn't die."
The official of the Civil Service took a breath, then put the bowl on his hand on the corridor, turned around and hurried away, and the green-robed official couldn't stop shouting.
Suddenly, the manager turned around unhappy, "I was actually a step slower." The green-robed official asked him curiously, and he said, "I want to sell the cook for a good deal, and then I cut a few taels of silver flowers. I never thought that someone was faster than me... As he said, his face full of annoyance, "Brother Zhuang Miao, why didn't you say it earlier?"
The green robe official laughed, "That's bad luck, eat quickly." As he said that, he suddenly frowned, then spit out a grain of sand, and cursed, "That stupid woman, actually give us such rice? I will definitely talk to the prefect later..." Many colleagues who were also sheltering from the corridors not far away couldn't help but praise them loudly.
The official picked up his job and asked while eating, "Brother Zhuang Miao, after hearing what you said, then the young master Dai from Yangzhou is like the King of Chu. Why don't the men raise money? Why do you have to continue to hold a meeting to study..."
The green robe official probably had a true friendship with this ritual official, and immediately said to him: "You! You are not from a real brand and don't understand. You have always only the principle of eating the court and drinking the court. How can you take out your own money to subsidize the court? Just like the Ministry of Rites in the six ministries, which is in charge of the Jiaofangsi and goes to prostitutes for a coupon without spending money. It can be called a private use of public instruments, but have you ever seen anyone who took out his own woman for others to prostitute?"
This is really a saying that is not rough. Maybe it was a real friend who said this. The Scriptures were stunned at first, and then couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Brother Zhuang Miao is really a wonderful person... Yes, our mansion master is afraid of a year..."
Before he could finish his words, the green-robed official raised his eyebrows and snorted loudly to interrupt his words. The official probably knew that he was talking too much, so he smiled awkwardly, lowered his head and went to have a meal.
At this time, Luo Wenlong and Liu Baichuan, deputy envoy of military preparation, walked out of the food dormitory. When passing by the green robe and the civil servant, Luo Wenlong looked at the two of them with deep meaning.
After walking for more than ten steps, Luo Wenlong said to Liu Daichuan: "Dongweng, if I donate 20,000 taels of silver to the yamen..." Liu Daichuan was shocked when he heard this, looked around, frowned and said in a low voice: "Wenlong, this is without precedent, don't be reckless..."
As he said, touched his beard and said, "It cannot be said that there is no precedent. During the Zhengde period, Emperor Wuzong acted absurdly, which led to the rebellion of King Ning. At that time, a salt merchant in Yangzhou donated 500,000 silver to the court, which was a messenger. However, later, the Yangzhou prefect at that time reported a memorial to him that he colluded with King Ning and his whole family was killed..."
Liu Daichuan said here, looking at Luo Wenlong and said, "Wenlong, I know you and Xiaoge Lao are close friends, but you have to know that Xiaoge Lao is not up to date in everything." After that, he walked forward with his hands behind his back.
Luo Wenlong really wants to ruin his family, but this person is really a smart person. He always feels that if things are not done well this time, it will be a big deal. If it is hard to say it, the entire Hangzhou officialdom will have to be washed.
He thought about it and stomped his feet, hey! What am I worried about? Even if the city gate fires, who will be afraid of my friendship with Donglou?
On this side, the Hangzhou government office continued to hold a meeting to study, but on the other side, Kang Fei, after testing Pang Di's hard drive reading and writing speed, was advised by Pang Di not to stay in Hangzhou, and should hurry up and go south... Pang Di was also preparing to analyze it carefully for him and warned him that there is a barrel of explosives in the Hangzhou officialdom now.
But when Kang Fei heard this, she didn't need her to continue to analyze it, it made sense. Yes, why should I deal with these Hangzhou officials? I don't owe them anything. The key is that Tang Jingchuan is also here. It doesn't seem good to not give this brother face. It's better to leave.
He did what he said, and got up and went to find the veteran General Zhang Huan. The veteran general was recuperating in the house these days, but he had already recovered. However, he was a military general and a bunch of civil servants came. Although he was the commander of the Yangzhou Guard and was old, the entire political ecology still made him subconsciously feel that he was a dwarf and was unwilling to deal with civil servants more often. This was probably the cold butt he had been exposed to the hot-faced man and was injured...
Therefore, the old general agreed.
While Kang Fei asked Pang Di to help him clean up, he went to his parents' room and told the Fourth Master and the Fourth Miss that the Fourth Miss couldn't bear to part with his son and had to say a few words, but the Fourth Master was very mature and polite, and said, "You think so, it's right. Now the official atmosphere in Hangzhou is not good, I think it's also going to be a disaster, so you can avoid it early."
That night, Kang Fei and his party quietly booked two boats outside the Wulin Gate. Not to mention the Fourth Lady crying, Kang Fei's children were in a state of being, and the group entered Quzhou under the Qiantang River.
After arriving in Quzhou, I received a document for passing the customs in the local area and went to Xianxia Pass.
This Xianxia Pass is known as the Liangzhe Lock Key, and combines Jianmen Pass, Hangu Pass and Yanmen Pass into four ancient passes.
Xianxiaguan Station is also a major office in Zhejiang. On that day, Kang Fei and his party were preparing to settle down at Xianxiaguan Station.
On the road, looking at the majestic mountain not far away, Kang Fei asked Zhang San to go to the front to handle the matter first. In less than half an hour, Zhang San, the fat man, came back with a big green donkey panting. Looking at Kang Fei, he was speechless.
Kang Fei couldn't help but frown, "Mom Spicy Dipper, you are a yamen runner, you are a yamen runner who is doing things all day long. Don't think that the old general and you have a connection with you. I won't beat you up..."
Zhang San shouted pitifully, "Mr. I'm wronged. I'm not accusing me of being a trick. I, I, I don't know what to say..."
After snorting, Kang Fei thought, could a tiger pop up? He pointed at Zhang San with a horse whip in his hand, which scared Zhang San to shrink his neck.
After seeing the old general, he thought Zhang San had done a good job before, and immediately shouted, "Okay, okay, I'll arrive at the station in half an hour. After seeing it, I'll know what's going on."
In the donkey cart behind, Zeng Qing and Zeng Bai were pitiful and shouted, "Brother Kang Fei, have you arrived at the inn? We are so tired..."
When Kang Fei heard this, he pulled the horse back and looked at Zeng Jia's family in the car, and then said to Zeng Qing and Zeng Bai: "You guys are not good at this class... You even say you are tired even when you ride a car."
Zeng Bai didn't understand what it means to be a child in this class, but Zeng Qing was not convinced, "Brother said everything ready-made words, you can do it, come and take a car, I'll ride a horse..."
The cars of this era have no shock absorbers and rubber tires, so the road conditions needless to mention. Even if the loess stacked road is for the emperor, you can guess what the ordinary official road looks like. If you sit down like this all day, the joints will probably be shaken apart. It is really a chore.
Although I understood, Kang Fei still had to say a few words and rolled his eyes to Zeng Qing, "Are you riding a horse? Do you know that the meat is resurrected? You, the little bird, are bleeding, do you believe it..." Zeng Jia, who heard Kang Fei's words in the donkey cart, turned his head and pretended to look at the scenery.
Zeng Qing was so old that he was reluctant to accept it. He immediately said, "Could it be that your sparrow is made of iron?" Kang Fei laughed loudly when he heard this. Zeng Jia was really unable to pretend. He blushed. He reached out and grabbed Zeng Qing and whispered, "Brother Qing, what are you talking about."
After experiencing the Japanese riots in Hangzhou, although Zeng Qing was still a middle-aged boy who was timid in the sky, he knew something. It would be impossible for him to apologize to Zeng Jia. He snorted and turned his head to ignore Kang Fei.
Kang Fei laughed and said to Zeng Jia, "Master, bear it a little longer and you will soon arrive at Xianxia Post."
