The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 147 The trivial matter in the government office
【4600】

In a blink of an eye, it was November nineteenth.

In the early morning of this day, Jiao Shun made a special detour to the West Corridor, and picked Jia Yun to go to the yamen to work together—Jia Yun finally accepted his invitation and agreed to work as a handyman in the yamen because of the need to make ends meet.

Although he bears the name of a master, Jia Yun's monthly salary is only [-] taels, which is less than half of Zhang Cheng's, because he is only responsible for doing odd jobs and because of the favor of the Rongguo Mansion.

But for a brat like him, it's a high salary.

But after talking about the yamen, Jiao Shun wanted to guide him to familiarize himself with the situation of the handyman's office, but he had just finished lighting the clock, and got a notice from the Si Li, saying that Langzhong Zhao was going to be promoted to the court for discussion.

So he didn't dare to stop, left Jia Yun in Shuan Zhu's care, and hurried to the department.

At that time, many people had already gathered in the lobby, besides the head of the department and Yuanwailang, there were actually several other people present.

Jiao Shun didn't know what happened, so he approached Hou Yun, the superintendent, to find out.

"Focus and relax."

Hou Yun said with a smile: "It's just because the Ministry of Rites will send people to discuss the specific regulations of the inspection team in the future. Let's blow the air first."

In fact, the Ministry of Rites should have sent someone to contact them long ago.

However, the idea of ​​these two ministries to jointly revitalize the government-run elementary school came from the Ministry of Industry, but it was proposed by a lucky man who was born as a slave. Officials, the Ministry of Rites is the base camp for scholars.

The fault is that the New Deal is holding high the banner of persuading students, and the government-run education has indeed reached the point where it is unsustainable. Officials from the Ministry of Rites may have jointly signed a letter to boycott it.

Now, after more than half a month of moaning and hawring, it finally couldn't be delayed any longer.

Hearing that he was coming in the next day, Jiao Shun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was his turn to take a bath tomorrow, and he was preparing to solve You Shi's problem with all his might. If the visit of the Ministry of Rites coincided with the visit, he was afraid that it would be postponed again.

Wouldn't it be a pity if Youshi gave up on this idea?

Not long after, everyone gathered together, and Zhao Yisheng, the doctor in charge, sat down in the hall. When he opened his mouth, it turned out to be some metaphysical principles.

Although according to the current situation, it is impossible for the Ministry of Rites to completely overthrow the New Deal, but they have a hidden stance to be anti-customer-oriented, and believe that the main propaganda policy of the Ministry of Industry should be "government-run education without discrimination" to replace the Ministry of Industry's "workers" Student's banner.

In addition to fighting for power and profit, there is also a reluctance to let "work" and "study" be side by side, or even rank in the forefront.

Naturally, the Ministry of Industry was unwilling to hand over the initiative, but the proposal of the Ministry of Rites was generally supported by the Imperial Academy and the officials of Ke Dao.

Not only that, but there are also some noises inside the Ministry of Industry.

That's why we have this briefing.

It is said that not only the Baigong Division, but also several other divisions are holding similar meetings in order to unify their thinking and unite with the outside world.

But compared to other places, Baigong Division announced an important decision in addition to blowing the air.

That is to say: for the implementation of the New Deal by the Miscellaneous Works Office, all departments within the department must give their full support. At critical moments, the Miscellaneous Works Office can even directly transfer subordinates from various departments, and then report to the department after the fact. During this period, no departments will deliberately obstruct it.

As soon as this decision came out, it placed the authority of the handyman's office—mainly Jiao Shun's—over the authority of each office.

You must know that the handyman's department has always been the bottom handyman. Who would have thought that since Jiao Shun took office, in just a few short months, he turned around and rode on everyone's head!
It is absolutely impossible to say that the institutes have no opinion on this.

But everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, hoping that someone would jump out and object, but no one wanted to be the leader—even Su Shilang, who had never liked craftsmen, stood up for Jiao Shun, who would dare to offend him rashly now?
Therefore, they used their eyes to 'encourage' each other for a long time, but no one appeared in a daze.

Zhao Yi then made a decision and said: "Since there is no opinion everywhere, then the matter is settled like this. If someone dares to prosecute and disobey afterwards, then I will be able to forgive it here. The Minister of the Book will never forgive me lightly!"

…………

at the same time.

Guided by Shuan Zhu, Jia Yun walked into the west room of the main room of the handyman's office.

I saw that there were seven desks in order, six of them faced each other in pairs, and one was placed alone in the northwest corner.

Shuan Zhu led Jia Yun to the desk in the northwest corner, bowed his hands to Zhang Cheng who got up to greet him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Master; Second Master Yun, this is Zhang Yuyan [Zhang Cheng's word Yuyan] Mr. Zhang, who used to be the head of Huangzhuang in the early years, and now he is hired by the adults to be the master."

After hearing each other's backgrounds, the two were both busy and solemn, bowing to each other and saying:
"Senior Zhang."

"Second Master Yun."

Hearing the sound of 'Senior Zhang', Zhang Cheng suddenly realized that Jia Yun must be the new master Dong Weng had found, and considering his age and background, he was probably here to check and balance and supervise him.

However, this is also a common practice in the officialdom. With real power like Jiao Shun, it is naturally impossible to rest assured and leave everything to one person to take care of.

Therefore, Zhang Cheng was not unhappy about it.

When Jia Yun heard him addressing him as 'Second Master Yun', she hurriedly smiled and said, "What's wrong with you, the boy is just a shabby householder with the false name of his ancestors. Seniors can just call me Brother Yun."

After saying that, he bowed solemnly again: "The boy is just a loafer. My lord has graciously allowed me to come here to eat and drink. If I can gain some benefits from Senior Zhang, I will be considered lucky."

Although Jia Yun's attitude is extremely humble, Zhang Cheng still calls him the second master Yun, and Jia Yun is not correcting anything - after all, he is new here now, and he has never learned any skills, so naturally he can only rely on Rongguo Mansion's collateral With his identity, he pulls up the banner as a tiger's skin.

After the two exchanged a few words of pleasantries, Zhang Cheng first summoned a few book offices who were from accountants to meet Jia Yun one by one, and then led him around to familiarize himself with the environment inside the office.

The previous article did not list it in detail, so I will briefly describe one or two here.

The three main rooms on the north side of the handyman's office are in the shape of a lobby among the two value rooms. The east room is where Jiao Shun works and rests;

The lobby is where Jiao Shun usually meets guests and discusses matters - of course, if the deputy and prime minister announce something important, they will call everyone to meet in the lobby.

The three rooms on the east side are the valet rooms of Zhao Yan, the deputy of the institute, and Liu Changyou, the prime minister, and the file room in the institute.

Three rooms on the west side are connected to form a long hall. There are about [-] book offices and craftsmen who handle official affairs under the leadership of officials.

There is a small ear room in the northwest corner, which was assigned to Wu Tianci for private use.

The two inverted seats on the left and right of the gate are warehouses.

The toilet is in the southwest corner.

I went around for a while, and met Zhao Yan, Liu Changyou and others.

Jia Yun secretly figured it out, counting Zhao Yan, Liu Changyou's long-term follower, secretary office and others, there were more than forty people crammed into this small courtyard.

Jiao Shun is the only one who really has an independent office.

It is said that to be an official must be to live in eight seats with infinite awe and prestige, but who knows that the yamen is so cramped.

He roughly showed some meaning, and Zhang Cheng smiled and said: "Who made our six ministries have more officials and less land? It would be much better if it was in the local area."

After speaking, he led him back to the west room of the hall, and listed the daily duties that need to be taken care of.

After hearing that this small courtyard actually controls the livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of people, with inexhaustible financial and material resources, Jia Yun hastily restrained her contempt, and followed Zhang Cheng in fear, to see how he would deal with it.

Of course, half of this was just pretending. After all, he was also a smart guy. It was obvious that Zhang Cheng's reported numbers of tens of thousands meant that he wanted to beat them.

Not long after, Jiao Shun came back from the Sili. Seeing that Jia Yun was determined to learn, he felt less worried, called him to tell him: "After all, you have different identities, and you should go to see Mr. Zheng. It just so happens that I There is something to discuss with Mr. Zheng, so you can accompany me for a walk."

Although Jia Yun was apprehensive, she also knew that this was an opportunity for her to show her face, so she hurriedly responded respectfully, and then looked for a mirror to adjust her clothes.

When Zhang Cheng heard this later, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Sure enough, there are people in the court who are willing to be officials—he has been here for more than half a month, but he has never been brought by Jiao Shun to see the superior.

Don't mention Zhang Chengxin's thoughts.

But it is said that Jiao Shun led Jia Yun around, and found the Tuntian Cleaning Office. The structure of this place is much better than that of the handyman. Small living room.

Seeing Jiao Shun coming to the door, Jia Zheng originally smiled amicably, but when Jiao Shun revealed Jia Yun's identity, he immediately lowered his face and said solemnly: "Since your uncle has fallen in love with you, I think you have some merits, but This important place in the yamen is not a place for you to show off your cleverness! In the future, you must do your best to handle errands, and don't miss your uncle's important affairs! Otherwise, even if he is willing to spare you, I will not!"

Jia Yun responded tremblingly, and Jia Zheng shook his sleeves and said, "Let's step back first."

When Jia Yunwei walked out of the hall, he changed his color and said with a smile: "I know you are looking at the people in the mansion, but you are in the yamen after all, you must not let him do anything - if there is any inconvenience In the place of discipline, you can report to me."

Jiao Shun led Jia Yun here, and that's exactly what he meant.

Now he smiled and said: "He is also a man who can be made. He may not be able to be Baoyu's arm in the future. I just help to train and teach first."

In fact, he was only one year older than Jia Yun, but because of his recent performance, Jia Zheng didn't feel that it was against harmony when he said this, but thought it should be so.

And Nian Xu nodded and said: "It's hard for you to think about the house all the time - I already knew about the elder brother's begging for the fan bone a few days ago, you just take care of it for my sake. If you want to buy by force, you can just push it on my head."

Jiao Shun respectfully complied, and then changed the subject, talking about the inspection team and the promotion of the New Deal.

The general charter of the inspection team has been discussed. It will leave Beijing after the Lantern Festival and return to Beijing in mid-July. It should be divided into more than a dozen actions.

"According to the regulations set by our department, in mid-April next year, we will start to try out the new policy around the capital, and then follow the footsteps of the inspection team to promote it."

"If there is anything wrong during this period, the department will be able to make some adjustments nearby. When it is implemented to a place far away from the capital, the specific plan should become more mature."

Jia Zheng also participated in the inspection team, but he had never heard of the details of the follow-up promotion. At this time, while listening to Jiao Shun breaking apart and crushing the points, he took a pen and paper to record in detail. In order to deal with the open and secret struggle with the Ministry of Rites in the future.

Jiao Shun counted everything related to the inspection team, his mouth was dry and he hurriedly took some tea to moisturize.

Jia Zheng reviewed it again from beginning to end, picked up a few who still had doubts and consulted them one by one, and wrote an outline again muttering.

To be honest, he is quite serious about his official duties, and he has a lot of ambition and self-motivation.

It’s just that on the one hand, I can’t bear mundane affairs, and on the other hand, I have the problem of high-sightedness and low-handedness. The only advantage is that I can still listen to suggestions. If I have a capable arm around me, I may not be unable to achieve something.

But originally the Rongguo Mansion was full of wine bags and rice bags, and he didn't have much knowledge of people, so it was not uncommon for him to end up in a dismal end.

But now with Jiao Shun's assistance, it's a different situation.

After deliberating for a long time, Jia Zheng raised his head again and asked, "Are you Xiumu tomorrow?"

After getting an affirmative answer, Jia Zheng nodded and said: "Then I will also ask for a day off. Our uncle and nephew should consider it carefully and submit the three-level supervision system and post responsibility system in the future, so as not to be punished by the Ministry of Rites." watch for."

tsk~
This is to be in a hurry to appear before others!
Jiao Shun is still confident about the two systems he proposed, after all, they are all old methods used by later generations, and these days, he and Jia Zheng have also adapted to local conditions, changing some details that are too advanced.

only……

Originally, it was agreed to go to Ningguo Mansion tomorrow to meet with Yindie, so as to solve the problem of Youshi's hesitation, but now Jia Zheng suddenly intervened, but it was a bit difficult to deal with.

"how?"

Seeing Jiao Shun groaning silently, Jia Zheng wondered, "Is there something wrong with my nephew?"

"how come!"

Jiao Shun quickly shook his head and said, "My little nephew just thought that there will be people from the Ministry of Rites at that time, and I'm afraid that he will have to stick to words again, which is really a headache."

Although Nayou's identity is particularly exciting, it is more important than not having a future.

Of course, it would be best if you could have the best of both worlds.

or……

Let's find an excuse to go to Ningguo Mansion tonight to see if there is any chance to live with it?

"Hahaha……"

Hearing Jiao Shun say that he had a headache, Jia Zheng couldn't help laughing, pointed at him and said, "You, you, everything is excellent, but this knowledge needs to be improved."

Before, he despised Jiao Shun's background, but now he loves Wu Jiwu, but because of Jiao Shun's background, he forgives Jiao Shun's vulgarity.

Sitting here with Jia Zheng for more than half an hour.

Only then did Jiao Shun lead Jia Yun back to the handyman's office, and then threw him to Zhang Cheng for training.

Then Liu Changyou was recruited to inquire about the progress of the kerosene lamp and kerosene.

Liu Changyou reported: "The humble job ordered people to find some oil, and ordered the craftsmen below to try to blend it. Although they used the method of boiling glue to make glue, they still haven't been able to filter out oil that is comparable to natural water and fire—but As long as the process is gradually improved, there should be some clues a year ago."

"It's not in a hurry."

Jiao Shun exhorted: "After it is completed, we should try our best to simplify the manufacturing process so that the production cost can be reduced when mass production in the future."

"Understandable."

Liu Changyou bowed in response, and then said: "The craftsmen below have already trial-produced a few lamps according to the adults' instructions, but the natural water and fire have not yet been delivered, and the ones we refined have not yet reached the standard, so it is difficult to verify the quality for a while. how."

"This is even less urgent."

Jiao Shun reminded again: "Just be careful, it's not a joke if you get out of the water."

"Don't worry, my lord. There are rules in the yamen. This kind of risky trials are all carried out in the open area outside the city, and will definitely not affect the houses of the common people."

Jiao Shun felt relieved, and ordered Liu Changyou to take out all the remaining ten coir raincoats in the storehouse to write off the account, and then sent him away.

When it's time to disperse the Yamen.

There were more than a dozen coir raincoats piled up on Jiao Shun's carriage, which really couldn't accommodate Jia Yun.

Zhang Cheng volunteered to drive a mule cart to take Jia Yun home—as a subordinate, it is not easy for his boss to pick him up every day, so he gritted his teeth and rented a mule cart, and his son drove it every day.

Just as Jia Yun was about to agree, Jiao Shun stopped him and dragged him to rub Jia Zheng's carriage.

When Jia Zheng asked about the situation, he couldn't help scolding him with a stern face: "You don't want to share your uncle's worries, but point to him picking him up every morning and evening? How is it decent to spread the word?!"

Jia Yun was being scolded in fear and fear, when Jia Zheng ordered Shan Daliang to say: "Butler Shan, please remember to allocate a car for him tomorrow, so don't let him bother brother Shun!"

Only then did Jia Yun understand Jiao Shunla's intention for coming here, and she couldn't help being grateful and in awe.
