"Runde, you are fifteen years old this year, why are you still playing kid-tempered with the master?"

In Chengfa’s room, Chen Ming surrounded He Jin with great thoughts and comforted him: “You and the master have a master-disciple relationship after all. If your master is in trouble, you, of course, have the responsibility to help you…”

"Six thousand pounds!"

He Jin frowned and gritted his teeth, "I can persuade Xiu'er to take out 6,000 kilograms of coal, and nothing can be done if I say more. Moreover, I guess this will probably affect your dividend in the future..."

Chen Ming's face was stunned and then he became angry: "Do I care about those who distribute dividends?"

"Rande, don't pretend to be confused when you understand. This is a big deal that is 20,000 lives! It's hard to say that the master's black hat will be taken off because of this!"

"This is not a matter of caring or not, but a coal is thrown in, and even Xiu'er and I will be affected."

He Jin was still full of sorrow and spread his hands and said, "And Master, you said that they are 20,000 victims. The officials in the yamen can't come up with an idea. I can't carry it even more with my arms and legs..."

"Last time, you can help the lonely people in Cizhou to survive the severe winter. Why can't you do this time?"

"Last time, I accidentally discovered anthracite, and there were only less than 2,000 people in Cizhou. Of course I could do it. But this time I didn't find any new products, and the number of people increased tenfold."

He Jin started to scratch his hair depressedly, and said with a grievance: "Old man, why don't you believe me? I'm not a boy from Shancai, so why are you so powerful as a stone to make gold?"

When Chen Ming heard this, he couldn't help but look at He Jin carefully. He Jin also looked up and looked at Chen Ming without any hiding.

In the end, Chen Ming was defeated and said, "You really have no choice?"

"Of course..." He Jin spread his hands again, shook his head and sighed: "Of course there are."

"Oh, then I'll be honest with the master..." Chen Ming nodded, turned around and walked out lonely. But just after taking two steps, he realized: "Wait a minute, what did you say just now?"

"Of course I have a way. It's just 20,000 victims, which is really a bit short. If the number of people can be more, it would be even better..." He Jin smiled and showed his fox's tail: "Old man, how are my acting skills?"

"You, you!...Oh, I really don't know what to say to me!" As he said this, Chen Ming walked back happily.

But unexpectedly, He Jin's face changed again and he said bluntly: "But, I don't want to help the master this time. After all, not helping is the duty, helping is the love."

"The master and I don't even talk about the relationship between master and apprentice, so naturally I don't have that much abundant and passionate feelings to him. Just give him some coal and get rid of him."

At this moment, Chen Ming's expression became solemn and said, "Just for the case?"

"Yes, it's the nature of that thing," He Jin confronted him and said, "That thing shows that Yao Zhizhou just treats me as a toilet. He uses it when he thinks about it, and if he can't remember it, he will do it himself with his own pride."

"Old man, do you think I should be so mean?"

"But..." Chen Ming wanted to persuade him again, but opened his mouth, but found that he had nothing to say. In the end, he could only tell the truth: "I also feel that Dongweng did a bit too much in that matter."

"It's not that he did too much." He Jin didn't expect that he was more fair and corrected: "It's because of this era, this is the concept of giving these scholars."

"It is important to be orderly and politically derived from the top, thinking that if you can get a high position, you can control and master a person. Who knows that people's hearts are full of flesh and can't wait for sincerity and trust without waiting for it, how can people repay with sincerity?"

"Yes, give it to the wood peach and repay it with Qiong Yao. This is also recorded in the Book of Songs, and scholars also read it in their mouths, but after they truly hold power, they will naturally be intoxicated by power. How can they remember these?"

Chen Ming couldn't help but sigh, and then asked He Jin: "But, Runde, what are you going to do about this?"

He Jin smiled again and leaned over Chen Ming's ear and muttered for a while.

After hearing this, Chen Ming couldn't help but narrow his eyes and nodded in agreement: "Well, although this strategy is as cunning as ever, I like it!"

Afterwards, Mr. Chen Ming left Chengfa’s room and came to the signing room.

Before pushing the door, he patted his relaxed face and changed into a bitter and revengeful look. As soon as he entered the door, he sighed dejectedly: "Oh, Dongweng, Runde may be, this time, there is really nothing he can do..."

"How is that possible?" Yao Jing's first reaction was that he didn't believe it: "That kid is very treacherous. Master, don't be deceived by him."

Chen Ming sighed again, and his face became much more serious: "Even so, what can Dongweng be able to do? His ability grows on him. He refuses to say it, and we cannot torture it..."

"I, I have removed him from his post!" Yao Jing said angrily.

"Dongweng, he is now a civil servant. If he wants to remove his position, he still needs to report to the Ministry of Revenue. The disaster is so hot that even if he can remove his position, what's the use?"

"If you don't be a son, you won't be a son!" Yao Jing still angrily and said, "I am dedicated to cultivating him, just wanting him to be a famous minister in the future. Unexpectedly, he was so ungrateful. At such a critical moment of life and death, he abandoned his official position and ignored him!"

"Dongweng!" Chen Ming's voice became much louder and he said seriously: "Runde has agreed to go to the Shen family and ask for five thousand kilograms of coal. What else does Dongweng want? Don't forget that although he is talented, he is only a fifteen-year-old boy after all. What's wrong with being unable to take on this heavy responsibility?"

"And those who read articles of sages, who doesn't read more than him in the Manchu yamen? I'm also a scholar, so why aren't you helpless?"

As he said that, Chen Ming stood up and looked at Yao Jing and said disappointedly: "I once thought that Dongweng was at least a reasonable person. I didn't expect that when something happened, I would only vent my anger on others so much. Since that's the case, I asked Dongwen to make money from me, and I would like to ask him to do it!"

After saying that, Chen Ming walked out angrily without even looking back.

Yao Jing was stunned. Unexpectedly, after a turmoil, he caused the matter to such a pitiful land!

In fact, he had always known that Chen Ming and He Jin were the only ones in the Manchu Yamen, and they were the same as him. Those remaining people were probably concerned about He Jin's power and took him, the governor, to look at him.

When He Jin said he had no choice, the officials suddenly felt like they smelled some subtle smell of wild beasts.

Some people said that they asked themselves to write to the Mansion and asked to allocate money and food; some people suggested that they write to them, and said that Cizhou was not rich, so they asked if they could accept fewer victims.

Some people even said directly that they would simply set up a wasteland to let the victims die by themselves. As long as they are lucky enough, there will be more victims in other prefectures and counties than in Cizhou, and there will be no trouble in Cizhou...

These proposals are all about taking the blame and taking the blame. They can easily escape the disaster. None of them really cares about the disaster victims!

Now, one disciple stopped playing with him, and the other confidant was also annoyed... He did not reflect on his mistakes and corrected his past. He was really waiting for the weak power to be torn apart by these officials and wolves!

Thinking of this, Yao Jing quickly stood up, looking like Ekang called Ziwei and called out anxiously: "Master! Please stay!"

Chen Ming, who was carrying Yao Jing on his back, couldn't help laughing: Boy He, your plan is really satisfying!

I never thought that I, a poor old scholar, could still be so angry at the magistrate. And after the fight, he had to keep him affectionately and apologize...

But Yao Jing couldn't see Chen Ming's expression, and he thought the old man was trembling all over, and was very angry.

So he hurriedly said, "Master, I am wrong, I am really wrong... I shouldn't be stubborn, I am cold to Runde's heart and hurt my love. I am bowing to the master, I hope my master will not be grudges!"

At this moment, He Jin, who was lying in the corner of the wall, saw that the time was ripe, immediately the drama spirit came on his body, ran into the stage, and reached out to call affectionately: "Master, I thought of it!"
