I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 76 Why don't you tie Guo Erlang by your side?

Chu Wang Guo Yunzhe stepped out of the house and saw Guanshi Zhu waiting outside the study not far away.

So, he walked to the study.

But just two steps away, Princess Chu chased after her with a beautiful cloak in her hand, and shouted softly: "My lord, it's cold at night, be careful of catching a cold."

While shouting, he walked a few steps, put the cloak on him, and tidied it up carefully.

"Yeah." The King of Chu felt hot, and nodded with a smile: "You go to bed first, I will be later."

Afterwards, watching his daughter-in-law return to the house, he walked towards the study again.

Manager Zhu hurriedly bowed to salute, and handed over the letter.

When King Chu saw the letter, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and took it with some doubts.Holding one in one hand, and reading the envelopes side by side, he asked very puzzled, "Who sent it?"

"Pillar. Oh, it's the mountain-like follower next to Guo Erlang."

As soon as the word ramming as strong as a mountain is mentioned, the sense of picture comes immediately.

Even the details are very full.

His Royal Highness King Chu nodded in understanding, walked into the study, sat down, and opened the envelope.

First of all, it belonged to my own uncle.

After scanning ten lines at a glance, I made sure there was no urgent matter, turned it over and started again, and read it twice carefully.

Then, he handed it to Steward Zhu who was standing beside him.

Then, it was Guo Yi's letter.

These two letters are very similar but very different, very different!

My uncle's talk mainly about blocking the river mouth to store water, what are the specific precautions, what should be avoided, and there are gantry cranes for passage.

Then, there was the matter of the Liuhe Village Saltworks.

In Guo Yi's letter, he mentioned everything about blocking the estuary to store water.

The matter of the saltworks has instead become the focus.

Ugh!
The king of Chu was a little disturbed, he was not good at government affairs.Sighing, he handed the letter to Guanshi Zhu again.

Then, he picked up the boiling hot tea that the maid had just brought over, blew on it carefully, and took a small mouthful of tea.

After a while, Guanshi Zhu also finished reading it carefully.He would rather let his master wait a little longer than read the letter casually.

Seeing that he had finished reading the letter, the King of Chu put the letter back on the case table, put down his teacup, and asked sadly, "I've read it all? What do you think?"

Manager Zhu bowed and responded: "My lord, I think that the most important thing is to block the river mouth to store water. We need to issue a document immediately to inform the subordinate counties and villages. According to the requirements, immediately start blocking the river mouth to store water. Things."

Although hundreds of new well drilling tools and hundreds of barrel trucks have been built on the entire Jinghu North Road, all of them have been distributed and installed.

All of a sudden, the entire Jinghu North Road became a busy construction site.

But as the drought continued and became more severe, some trickling rivers had stopped flowing.There are also many ponds that cannot be replenished by water sources, and have evaporated.

The situation is getting worse.

It is imminent to block the estuary and store water.

When the king of Chu heard the words, he immediately nodded in agreement, and then began to study ink and pick up a pen to write official documents.

He only needs to draw up the main content, and then the "secretary in charge" will complete the entire official document, and finally hand it over to him for approval, and then it can be distributed to the entire Jingbei Road.

When he was young, the King of Chu drew up the main content, put down the brush, moved his wrist, and asked again: "Then what Guo Erlang said about the salt field is a bit exaggerated?"

Guanshi Zhu has been standing by the side with his head bowed, and when he heard his master's question, he thought about it and replied: "Go back to the prince, I don't think it's an exaggeration! From the villain's understanding of him, he is a person who is so proud of himself." Young people, it can be reflected from his actions and words.

For a right to make a decision, he could even give up his position as a steward outside the Prince Chu's mansion. Few young people in this world could do it.

And what he said in the letter, the saltworks will be very profitable, so there must be no falsehood. "

Really high rating.

The King of Chu was quite surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, it was really as he said.

From this point of view, this salt field really needs to be taken seriously.

Today, the Jiangling government office has recruited more than 100 blacksmiths to make new well-drilling tools; at the same time, more than 100 carpenters have been recruited to make bobbins.

And these, whether it is blacksmiths, carpenters, or various raw materials, require a lot of money, and the money is spent every day like running water.

For this reason, he had patted the table with He Tongpan twice.

According to He Tongpan's meaning, the government should save money and prepare for the upcoming drought.

But what the king of Chu meant was that prevention should be the priority, and disaster relief should be the supplement.While there is still water, we should save a lot.Instead of waiting for the drought to really come, waiting for a large number of livestock and seedlings to die of thirst, and waiting for countless people to look at the dry well, unable to continue.

His thinking was right, but looking at the ledger that spent money like running water every day, he was also scratching his head irritably.

Therefore, the open source of money has become the top priority now, and we have to find a way to make up for these expenditures of the government.

This Guo Erlang delivered the pillow in a timely manner.

Thinking of this, he picked up Guo Yi's letter again, which gave him a general description of the operation of the saltworks, what process it was, and what things were needed.

It can be seen from this that Guo Erlang also attaches great importance to this saltworks.

From this point of view, it is necessary to send a reliable person to manage it.

He kept thinking, pointing his fingers back and forth on the table unconsciously, suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, looked up at Guanshi Zhu and asked, "Tell me, how about letting this Guo Erlang manage the saltworks?"

Guanshi Zhu thought for a while, then shook his head firmly, and responded cautiously: "Go back to the prince, I think it's inappropriate."

"Why?" King Chu couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"Everything is complicated now, such as building new drilling tools, building bobbins, inspecting the water level every day, and other miscellaneous things. You are so busy every day that you don't touch the ground.

And in the government office, there are actually some people who sing the opposite.

Therefore, the villain feels that the prince should recruit Guo Erlang as a staff member of the palace to share your worries. "

The staff member means that in ancient times, it was called the staff and secretary of the general's shogunate, and later generally refers to the assistant personnel (generally referring to those with official positions) in the civil and military bureau.

Because it is located in the tent, it is also called "the shogunate", and the staff members around the commander are also called "staff staff" and "shogunate".

From the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, all military and political officials in one aspect had the right to hire secretaries, staff officers, and adjutants according to certain procedures. Such people can be called aides.

However, the Great Zhou Dynasty learned the lessons of the power of the former vassals that led to the power of the central government falling apart. In order to strengthen the centralization of power, the self-innovation was canceled and all positions were appointed by the Ministry of Officials.

But the law belongs to the law, and there are still some high-ranking officials who appoint private staff.

The King of Chu couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and suddenly felt that this seemed to be a good idea.

I'm a little impatient to deal with these official duties, isn't he good for reciting the wind and the moon and reciting poems every day?

That being the case, why not tie this monstrous Guo Erlang by his side and let him handle these annoying official duties for him?
