I’m The King

Chapter 1501 : Hanqi World One Hundred and Ninety-One

Stepping into the current government office gate of Shannan County, Mingtai finds that he has nowhere to go, because the government office is still a large construction site, with walls, flats, doors and windows, tiles, and work everywhere. A worker, and a middle-aged man in an official uniform is tucking the hem of his official robe around his waist, standing in front of the lobby door and yelling, from time to time he personally bends over and grabs a stack of tiles. With a shake of his hand, he threw the entire stack of tiles into the hands of the workers on the roof. Not only this official, but the few guards in the government office, like this official, are all covered in gray and sweat, working together with the workers.

All this made Mingtai and his entourage dumbfounded.

After throwing another stack of tiles on the roof, the official turned his head inadvertently and saw Cao Tianci and his party standing at the gate. He laughed a few times, clapped his hands, and ran over. Wherever he went, mud splashed, adding a lot of mud spots on his already dirty official robes.

“Minister Cao, you are back. This is the commander of Ming. I have heard of the name for a long time, and I have heard of the name for a long time!” The official ran to the gate in a few strides, first greeted Cao Tianci, and then turned around. When he came, looking at Mingtai, his hands were already stretched out enthusiastically.

Looking at the hands of the gray servants, Mingtai hesitated for a moment, then reached out and shook his opponent.

“Wonderful, the commander of Ming is indeed an amazing person.” The official smiled happily. “At night, I have a treat. Wu’s wine industry has top-class collection of fine wines. It is not available on the market!”

Upon hearing this, Cao Tianci couldn’t help but laugh and scolded: “Chen Gang, you bastard, when I came a few days ago, I asked you to treat guests with this wine, you pushed left and right, and you refused. I saw you for the first time today. The commander of the Ming Dynasty took out the wine in a hurry. You are not afraid that I will hold a grudge?”

Chen Gang rolled his eyes. “Minister Cao, look at what you said. With your status and your relationship with the Wu family, no matter how little this wine is, you can get it, and if you can drink it, I will be different. In order to get this altar Wine, but I have done a lot of work. I have lost a lot of favor. Old Wu Yizheng wrote me a note to make this altar, and it’s a waste for you to drink it.”

When Mingtai heard it, he was embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again: “Master Chen is polite, this is not worth it, just just a little bit of wine.”

Chen Gang waved his head again and again, “Neither, nor, just to command Ming to make you willing to reach out and hold my dirty hands, it’s worth this jar of wine. You must drink it, you must drink it.”

Cao Tianci shook his head repeatedly: “Dare to love you when I came two days ago and refused to shook hands with your dirty hands in revenge.”

Chen Gang laughed.

“Commander Ming. Let me introduce to you. This is Chen Gang, the new county guard of Shannan County. He was promoted from Cangzhou. When he was in Cangzhou, he was responsible for the economic development of Cangzhou. , Zhengshitang transferred him, and it was precisely because of his ability to make money. Shannan County connects the prairie and the mainland of Qin, and is located at a critical point. If it develops here, it will be important for the future of Qin and the prairie. Development is extremely beneficial.”

“It turned out to be Chen Junshou!” Although he had some expectation in his heart. But when he heard Cao Tianci’s official introduction, Mingtai was still taken aback, and Qin Yijian and the others behind him took a deep breath. The dignified guardian of a county, this is a great official in the frontiers, and he actually does the work of migrant workers in the government office, and he does not look like a big official at all.

“Just laugh, laugh.” Chen Gang smiled at the crowd: “Chen was just a businessman in Cangzhou before. He abandoned business and went to politics. The people of Meng Cangzhou can afford it. They chose me as the deputy county guard, and luckily made some achievements. ”

“It’s not a little achievement.” Cao Tianci said with a smile: “In selecting you to come to Shannan County, the few people in the Zhengshitang have a rare agreement on politics. You must know that the county guards who have been sent to Chudi several times before, then One of them is not fighting to blush with a thick neck.”

Chen Gang smiled, but his face was full of pride.

“Don’t be proud of you. If you don’t do well in this session, the people of Shannan County won’t have to choose you again!” Cao Tianci joked.

“Minister Cao, don’t worry, I’m still confident about this point. After three years, I vowed to remove the word. The commander, please here, please here. The main hall is still being renovated, so I can’t get in. Let’s go. Talking in the side room.”

Compared with the messy lobby, the side room is clean, but it still smells of lime. Obviously, the wall has just been painted.

“Chen Junshou, with all due respect, you are the guard of a county, and you must have a lot of things to deal with. Why did you start this?” The two sides sat down, and Mingtai asked unceremoniously, although it was only the first time with Chen Gang. We only talked a few words when we met, but Mingtai, who is good at observing people, has discovered that this person is an extremely up-and-coming and capable person, and he certainly doesn’t like to turn around. Cao Tianci asked him to take a good walk in Han, take a look, and get to know the real Han. Mingtai feels that if you want to understand Han, it is better to understand Han officials as soon as possible. Over the years, he has always been curious about the efficiency and cleanliness of Han officials.

Upon hearing this, Chen Gang couldn’t help sighing, “Who said it’s not, but look at my government, it’s messy. During the war, our Secretary He was very happy with artillery, but he finished the fight. I slapped my buttocks and left, leaving me to take over. I hate those profiteers the most.” He couldn’t help laughing when he said this. And Cao Tianci and Mingtai both laughed, because Chen Gang himself said before that he was also a businessman before.

“Those businessmen, they hired people away at high prices. I couldn’t find any manpower. Later, I finally got more people. But I had to fix the streets and the walls first. I can’t keep the city in chaos. Just care about how comfortable you are. This drag has been dragged to the present, but the manpower will always be insufficient. I am also idle now. I can help, I can always be faster, and I can save another person. Is wages?”

Listening to Chen Gang’s explanation, Mingtai and other people from the Qin country were dumbfounded.

“Shouldn’t the mansion be repaired first?” Qin Yijian on one side asked in astonishment. “Also, those businessmen dare to **** you from you?”

“Why don’t you dare? They pay a high price. I only have so much money in my pocket. You don’t know. Minister Cao knows what kind of stingy guy Wang Wudi is like. With just a small amount of money, what is going to be done? There are so many, there is no way, one can save one.”

“Why are there so few people in the government office? Just saw seven or eight people. Could it be that Chen Junshou relied on these people to help with the errands?” Qin Yijian asked.

“Enough is enough!” Chen Gang nodded and said, “Every department under the government has specialized departments. I don’t need so many people here. If there are too many people, I can’t do things. It’s easy for you to push me and wait until later. When it is not open, I will temporarily invite a few people to go back to their respective houses and find their respective mothers after finishing the business. Don’t spend the wrong money. By the way, Minister Cao, our Emperor once said that we should use officials as officials. Coming?”

“Your Majesty said that officials should be used as servants and livestock. If you want to be an official, you have to do that. Otherwise, why would the country pay you such a high salary?” Cao Tianci smiled.

“Yes, that’s the reason. It’s too hard. Don’t be an official!” Chen Gang laughed.

People from the Qin State were silent, and it was still a chore to dare to be an official in the Han State. For a county guard like Chen Gang, I am afraid that no one would be willing to do it in the Qin State. Mingtai also understood that the thinking of officials of Han and Qin officials were not at the same level.

What is people-oriented? that’s. Han officials have already done what it means to put the people first.

When the food was on the table, Chen Gang, the county guard in stinky mud, finally went to wash up, changed into a clean robe and walked back again, carefully holding a wine jar in his arms. Putting the wine jar on the table, he took a deep breath and posed his head: “Commander Ming, don’t look at this jar as ordinary, it’s not the fancy and fancy packaging that Wu’s takeout is called high-end wine. Comparable, this is the real Wu’s top wine.”

“Returning to simple and true, it should be so.” Mingtai nodded and praised.

Cao Tianci on one side was impatient. He stretched out his hand and snatched the jar. He was a master of martial arts. Chen Gang was just a businessman before. There was Cao Tianci who reacted quickly. He only reached half of his hand. The jar has reached Cao Tianci. In his hand, he slapped the mud seal and tore off the sealing paper, and a refreshing fragrance spread out in the house immediately.

“Be careful Be careful!” Chen Gang continued on one side.

“What are you afraid of? If I spill a drop, I won’t drink a glass today.” Cao Tianci laughed, stood up, flipped his wrist, and the thick drink fell down just right. The cup on the table is full.

“Good skill!” Mingtai himself is also a master of martial arts, and naturally knows the difficulty of Cao Tiancilu’s skill.

Cao Tianci smiled and gave everyone on the table a full drink, “You have a share, it’s a rare good wine to taste.”

A jar of about five catties of wine came down in a circle, and immediately went one-third of it. When Mingtai watched every glass of wine poured, Chen Gang’s eyebrows moved. Obviously, he was very distressed and couldn’t help but make his heart amused. Seeing Cao Tianci came back and put the wine jar on the table, he lifted it up, handed it to Chen Gang, and said with a smile: “One cup of good wine is enough. Save the rest. Keep a thought. I really drank it in one breath. It’s boring.”

Chen Gang was overjoyed and hugged the jar tightly in his arms. “Commander Ming is indeed someone who understands wine.” He stood up, holding most of the jar of wine, and left in a hurry, leaving Cao Tianci aside. It’s enough.

“It’s a pity, it was a pity that he was going to knock him out.” (To be continued.)
