The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Jiang Dou stood outside Kaifeng Mansion with a burden on his back, looking inside, and still couldn't believe in his heart that he was chosen as the correspondent of Kaifeng Mansion.

Jiang Dou is a small official in Chenliu County. This time the Kaifeng Prefecture selected correspondents. All the officials in their county have their own hearts. They are fighting until the deadline. No one is willing to relax. In the end, they agreed. To the only Jiang Dou who has no background.

Jiang Dou's father was a tofu workshop, so he named him such a name. His mother was the only daughter of an old talent. Jiang Dou followed his grandfather to hyphenate words since he was a child. Although he had no fame, he also entered the Chenliu county government.

A long time ago, after Jiang Dou read the book, he also complained about why he named himself such a name.

If A-da didn’t read a book and didn’t understand it, but A-niang should always know a little bit, right?

Jiang Dou asked his A-niang like this. At that time, A-niang sighed and told him: If it wasn't the mother who forced her to death, you would not be called Jiang Dou, but Jiang Doudou.

Jiang Dou shuddered and never complained again.

Today is the day the correspondents report, so someone was waiting at the gate of Kaifeng Mansion. When Jiang Dou was in a daze, he asked him why he was here. After Jiang Dou said his intention, he hurriedly led him in.

Jiang Dou followed into Kaifeng Mansion. This was the first time he came to Kaifeng Mansion. When he saw a huge boulder from a distance, his heart thumped and thumped wildly. I wanted to see it. The engraved on it must be The ring stone inscription of the official book.

It's a pity that they didn't go there, but turned into another road.

On the roof, there are two raccoon slaves basking in the sun and meowing a few times.

The person leading the way bowed his hand at the top, and respectfully said: "I have seen two chiefs."

Jiang Dou was stunned. He looked at this person, and then at the top. He thought, is this person crazy or I'm crazy?

After watching the person leading the way, Jiang Dou calmly continued to walk forward, and said hesitantly: "What were you doing just now?"

"Salute." The man's face was normal, looking at Jiang Dou's face, and then solemnly told him, "This is the rat catcher who was personally canonized by the prefect. Salute them. If you don’t believe it, you can ask."

Jiang Dou: "..."

Jiang Dou said blankly: "Then, what about me?"

That person: "You can figure it out!"

Jiang Dou scratched his head and saluted the two rat trappers on the roof.

The person added: "There are six rat catchers in our house, all of them are yellow raccoons."

Jiang Dou: "..."

...

Jiang Dou was taken to the report place with doubts about the world. Their training class was set up in Tianqingguan, where the place is spacious and it can be regarded as a borrowing site.

Now, there are three or four people sitting behind the table with a roster and pen and ink on the table. When Jiang Dou stepped forward and verified the identity of the letter, these people registered his name and put a handful of blue paper. Pass it to him.

Jiang Dou took a look. The note read "The October Meal Ticket of Silusi Canteen is expired and voided", and it was also covered with a red seal.

"Because there are always people taking the opportunity to eat in our cafeteria, so I made such a thing, and you put it away." A handsome teenager explained with a slight smile, looked at the roster, and said, "Your name is really real. Interesting, Jiang Dou."

Jiang Dou blushed with embarrassment, but he could see that the boy was not malicious, so he thanked him for explaining himself instead.

"My name is Yun Yanhui. During the training period, we will get along for half a month." The boy introduced himself.

It seems that this young man is the editor selected from Kaifeng Mansion. Jiang Dou quickly introduced his identity and promised to study hard during the training and write hard in the future.

Yun Yan smiled back, "Is this your first time here? Don't be so serious and nervous, relax."

Jiang Dou nodded, knowing that it was a bit too late, but for the first time he showed such a good thing, can he not be nervous.

"It's almost time for dinner. Since you are here for the first time, I will take you with you." Yun Yan was very kind and moved Jiang Dou very much, thinking that he had met such a dear friend when he first came. , It is his luck.

Jiang Dou followed Yun Yan and walked to the cafeteria together. On the way, Yun Yanhui used humorous language to introduce Kaifeng Mansion to him. When someone meets on the road, he will be introduced to him enthusiastically, making Jiang Dou even more grateful and amazed at Yun Yanhui's popularity. But after another thought, how could such a kind person be badly popular?

Just outside the cafeteria, Jiang Dou thought excitedly, immediately, you can eat the famous Kaifeng cafeteria dishes!

Jiang Dou saw in the cafeteria at a glance, a yellow tabby cat came out with a small fish in its mouth, stopped a few steps in front of them, squatted, and looked up.

Yun Yan replied: "Haha, what advice does the rat catcher have?"

Thinking of the previous experience, Jiang Dou felt like he was too busy adjusting his clothes. He bowed and said gracefully: "The subordinates have seen the chief."

After such a salute, Jiang Dou straightened up, but saw Yun Yan Huizheng looking at him dumbfounded. People passing by also snickered and pointed at him.

Jiang Dou: "???"

In his heart, he already felt something bad...

Yun Yan said in shock, "What were you doing just now?"

Jiang Dou said weakly, "Isn't it a rat catcher, a money and food officer from the same house..." The elder brother who led me today told me, so I have to salute..."

"The housemaster has sealed them as a rat catcher, but that's just an honorary title. How can you ask people to pay a courtesy? We are a serious government office!" Yun Yan was speechless when he turned back, watching Jiang Dou look ashamed and comforted. Said, "Someone should be pranking, and you are right, don't be embarrassed."

However, Jiang Dou was not the only one who believed the lie. A somewhat dull correspondent from another county who happened to also come to the cafeteria also sang to the tabby cat.

Yun Yan replied: "..."

...

Jiang Dou followed Yunyan back into the canteen, and the meal ticket was redeemed for lunch.

Kaifeng’s canteen’s caiguo is really well-deserved, especially today’s dish includes a vegetable stir-fried thousand-page tofu, which tastes soft and elastic, not as smooth and tender as ordinary tofu, and has a unique flavor.

Jiang Dou grew up in a tofu shop. Tofu is also a common dish at home. He never knew that there was such tofu. If his father had such a secret recipe, he would have dominated the tofu world.

Jiang Dou couldn't help but said with emotion: "Brother Yanhui, how much money does this canteen give the chef? He can study so many dishes, open a restaurant on his own, and earn money from all Bianjing people. Wouldn't he be richer? ?"

Yun Yan was eating back, and after hearing it, he thought about it seriously, "Perhaps he thinks that the wealth of the soul is more important."

Jiang Dou pondered for a moment, "If this is the case, it would be rare."

Afterwards, Jiang Dou was immersed in the delicacy, and did not even notice that Yun Yan left after eating for a while. When he came back, he was already carrying the person who led Jiang Dou in the morning.

"I went to find out. It turned out that it was a few of them playing tricks and playing with the correspondent who came to report today." Yun Yan said back, pushing the person, "You still don't apologize, tell the people in Ji County below what do you think? In the mansion? If you are known by the mansion station, you are done."

The man bowed pitifully and apologized. Many people in this staff's ranks were not of high quality. Even in Kaifeng Mansion, it was inevitable that this would happen sometimes.

Jiang Dou didn't even expect that he would apologize. Generally speaking, what losses their lower-level units suffered from their higher-level units, they all swallowed silently and never expected...

After accepting the apology with some trepidation, Jiang Dou's eyes looked at Yun Yan's return suddenly even more unusual.

And what made Jiang Dou look at Yun Yanhui's eyes, which produced even greater changes, was on the opening day of the training class on the second day.

After a day of reporting, the correspondents of all lower-level units arrived.

Everyone gathered together and chatted and made friendships when the husband hadn't come yet.

Jiang Dou looked around for a long time, trying to find Yun Yanhui's figure, but Yun Yanhui hadn't appeared until class time, Jiang Dou thought, is it because she asked for leave?

After a while, Yun Yanhui appeared at the door. He hurried in, and walked two steps to the specially set aside podium, "Sorry, I'm a little late."

Jiang Dou hadn't reacted a little yet, and he didn't know why Yun Yan wanted to go up again. He wanted to beckon Yun Yan to come back.

Yun Yan replied: "...I am the main speaker of the training class, Yun Yan replied."

Jiang Dou: "?!!!"

Come to think of it, Yun Yanhui did not say that he was a classmate, but he was making up for the age when he watched Yun Yanhui. Moreover, he even kept calling his Yan Hui brother!

This feeling of classmates becoming teachers is really sour and cool.

When Jiang Dou was in the blank of his brain, the correspondents who belonged to Kaifeng Prefecture, including the districts of the city, clapped and were particularly enthusiastic. Under their lead, correspondents in other counties also applauded.

It's just that everyone has a unified doubt-who is this young man? Why should he be the main speaker?

Everyone thought in their hearts that it would be an old official or even the chief of the Privy Council. I didn't expect it to be such a nasty kid.

Yun Yan didn't care about everyone's gaze, and started to talk about her class with a single glance.

Although the people in the mansion were extremely supportive, after Yun Yan returned to the lecture, they couldn't conceal their distractions or disapproval. After all, they all consciously know the details of the speaker.

When Yun Yanhui talked about how to select news topics, plan, interview, and write, these people, although they don't speak trivialities, are really careless.

This made Yun Yanhui very dissatisfied, and Jiang Dou frowned when he saw him several times.

However, Jiang Dou listened carefully, and he noticed that this seemed to be very different from what he had thought before coming. He has read the Dibao here in the imperial court, but they are just general documents. Sometimes they just post some official articles as they are.

What Yun Yan said in reply made Jiang Dou feel that what he unfolded was a completely new type, completely different from Di Bao. Jiang Dou faintly felt that there was something terrible, but he couldn't say it in detail.

Yun Yan mentioned back what kind of news is meaningful, what kind of techniques should be used to describe it, from what angle to cut it in, and what needs to be paid attention to in structure. Even the newspaper news he said was broken down into several categories.

When Yun Yan replied, Jiang Dou felt that this half-month course would be very rich. What Yun Yan said in reply was just the tip of the iceberg. He even had the illusion that it sounded like an experience summed up through thousands of hard work and practice!

Uncertainly, Yun Yan played back his lesson plan and called a correspondent, "Which county are you from?"

The correspondent replied: "Suanzao County."

A somewhat poor county, with sour characters in its name, made up the temperament of this correspondent, poor and sour.

Yun Yan replied with a cold voice and asked him to make an idea on the spot. Suppose now that the government newspaper is opened and it is requested to provide material, what good news can be done in the county recently, and what points can be used to cut it in.

The correspondent thought about it for a while, then shook his head and spoke. He thought it was possible to write about their county's achievements in light of the recent decree issued by the imperial court, and the things that the chief had done, eloquently.

Not only the material, but also provides a rough content directly. This person showed some pride even more, for his own quickness.

Jiang Dou nodded in his heart. It seemed that although everyone was inattentive, they still listened somewhat. At least what he said was consistent with the content of the mansion newspaper requested by Yun Yanhui, not like Dibao. From Jiang Dou's point of view, it's pretty good.

However, before that person finished speaking, Yun Yanhui coldly interrupted: "Garbage."

Everyone:! !

Yun Yan replied: "I'm not targeting him, I mean, everyone here is rubbish."

Everyone:? ? !

Yun Yan snorted back, "I'm asking about good news. The court's decree is for the whole country, and every county in Kaifeng Prefecture will also implement it. In other words, every county can write it. Just ask, why should we be in Among so many similar themes, do you use your Suanzao County? Is your writing particularly good, or your county doing the best? Moreover, although we are a government newspaper, we don’t need to brag about singing skills and have no reality. Statistics! Can this be good news? This is just a tasteless one!"

When he said something, everyone was blushing, because asking them to think about it, it was almost the same as that person.

However, they really don't want to admit that they are rubbish.

"Then, I'll start from choosing the topic and say it again." Yun Yan looked around for a week and found that no one was distracted, and no one dared to look at him, before continuing with satisfaction, "I forgot to tell you that the training course has finished. Exams and test results will be announced to the whole government, and the unit ranked last will be notified and criticized. Therefore, you can also choose to continue to ignore my class. After all, I can't corporal punishment except for a few rubbish, but your boss should teach you to re-behave. ."

Everyone: "..."

In an instant, everyone scolded their mothers in their hearts-you said the last sentence earlier!
