God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 276 Working for Datang for 50 Years
Of course, there are not a few people who think like Changsun Wuji.

After a few days of fermentation, many people were laughing at Du He as a fool. He spent 80 yuan to buy a piece of land worth [-] yuan. What is it if he is not a fool?
Du He didn't have the heart to listen to these rumors. For a few days, he plunged into the Guozijian project, personally took Lu Yuan and others to the site to check the construction progress, measured the width of the road, checked the engineering materials, and directed the workers to work ...

Now is the stage of laying the foundation of the Imperial College, and it is also the most important part, so Du He came forward to watch in person, and no mistakes were allowed.

Du He lived and ate with the workers, without doing anything special. After a few days, he looked like a contractor, but he also won the trust of everyone. Every time the victims saw Du He, they would work hard. And greeted him one after another.

late at night.

In a shed not far from the Guozijian project.

Different from ordinary work sheds, this place is clean and tidy, and several tables are arranged in an orderly manner.

With seven or eight people, Ma Zhou sat at the table and huddled under the oil lamp, carefully flipping through the ledger.

It took more than an hour for everyone to read through the ledger.

Ma Zhou asked, "Everyone, do you find anything missing?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Ma Zhou frowned immediately.

"Du He is extremely smart. It seems that the books he made have covered up everything. It will be difficult for us to find his criminal evidence for a while." Ma Zhou said with some embarrassment.

Ma Zhou, who is just a censor now, has long inherited the style of the censor Wei Zheng, who is serious in his work, fearless of power, and dares to speak out. This time, he firmly believes that there must be something wrong with Du He, so he personally leads people to station in the Qujiang pool is for the convenience of monitoring Du He.

After a period of time, Ma Zhou found that Du He lived and boarded with the workers, never bullied the victims, rarely got angry, and treated everyone equally... Ma Zhou had worked very hard, but he didn't find that Du He had any serious problems. Any moral stains, so he set his sights on the accounts, hoping to find evidence that Du He embezzled the money for the construction of the Imperial College.

I don't know, after working for half the night, I still got nothing.

At this time, a censor next to him couldn't help but said: "Master Ma, in my opinion, let's forget it. The uncle of Huyi County had the title of Great Demon King and the title of Chang'an's No. 30 Dude before. We subconsciously thought that He will be a corrupt person, but now it seems that Du He is indeed doing things for His Majesty wholeheartedly. Among other things, as far as the reconstruction of the Imperial College is concerned, every penny has an account, and all of it is used for the reconstruction. In addition, about 30 people under Du He came from the furniture factory. Like the victims of the disaster, these people did not get any money. I have inquired that their daily wages were all paid by the furniture factory. The [-] yuan was not used at all."

Someone nearby stood up, nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, Mr. Ma, when it comes to buying raw materials such as stone and wood, Du He actually invented a bidding method. All the big households sit down and bid. Whose quality is better? If the price is low, someone else’s will be used. It is said that for this matter, the Sikong Mansion even threatened Du He, but Du He was unmoved, claiming that this work-for-relief business is not a profitable business, but a benefit for the people. It’s really not a penny wasted.”

"It's really wrong for us to doubt such a person who is doing his best for the country and the people!"

Everyone praised Du He for everything you said.

Ma Zhou was stunned.

After a long while, he said leisurely: "Could it be that this is all my prejudice against Du He? Whether it is really as you said, let's wait for a few days to find out."

Ma Zhou sent everyone away, took the account book and looked through it again, but still found nothing.

Ma Zhou still didn't give up. From the second day on, he never left Du He's footsteps. Except when sleeping and going to the bathroom, he followed Du He's buttocks. No matter what Du He was doing, he would go up and observe.

In the early morning of this day, Du He led Lu Yuan and others to discuss matters concerning the new sports field at the construction site.

According to Du He's plan, a sports field covering an area of ​​more than 20 mu will be built beside Qujiang Pool.

But many craftsmen are against it. Everyone thinks that this playground is meaningless. Firstly, it occupies an area of ​​more than 20 mu, which takes up a lot of land. Second, the playground alone will cost tens of thousands of dollars, which is really a waste. Everyone thinks, Either a school building is being built, or the lot is vacated to do nothing.

Ma Zhou listened to it, and immediately ran up excitedly, came to Du He, and asked loudly: "Du He, what kind of stadium are you going to build, do you want to enrich yourself and take the opportunity to take money?"

After Ma Zhou finished speaking, he realized that he was a little excited. He couldn't help it. He had been looking for Du He's flaws for the past few days, but he never found it. Now that he finally found some clues, how could he not be excited.

Then, he realized that the craftsmen around him were all looking at him like a fool.

Lu Yuan said dissatisfiedly: "Master Ma, what you said is wrong. Everyone knows that our young master is the richest man in Chang'an. He spent a lot of money and bought Yonghe Liufang for 80 yuan, and the construction of this sports field cost only ten thousand yuan. It's just money, how can our young master value such a small amount of money?"

Ma Zhou suddenly became a little flustered: "Then...here, Du He, explain to me why the stadium was built, and what is the stadium for?"

Looking at Ma Zhou's thin figure, Du He suddenly smiled and said, "Master Ma, before answering your question, I have a request, I hope you can agree to it."

"you say……"

Du He glanced at Ma Zhou, turned around and said to Lu Yuan, "Sheng Xiao, come out and have a running race with Master Ma, run from here to the gate, and then run back, to see who is faster."

Ma Zhou was stunned.

"start!"

But Lu Yuan ran out immediately.

Ma Zhou looked at it, thinking that he couldn't lose to a craftsman, anyway, he is also a person who often practices martial arts, so he hurried after him.

Not long after, Lu Yuan had returned to his original position, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he was calm and composed.

After a while, I saw Ma Zhou running back panting. He was out of breath, his face was pale, and he couldn't even stand firmly when he finally reached the finish line.

Du He waited for Ma Zhou to take a few breaths, and then said: "Master Ma, this is the meaning of sports. This sports field is for the students of the Imperial College to exercise every day. As students of the Imperial College, they will have to enter in the future." If you are an official in the court and loyal to the country, if you don't have a good body, how can you do your job well and complete the tasks assigned by your majesty? Therefore, the goal I set for the students of the Imperial College is to be healthy and healthy in the future. Datang has worked for 50 years.”

Ma Zhou put his hands on his hips, panting, and said convincingly: "It's reasonable, reasonable, exercise, but it should, it should..."
