Chapter 75 Confirmation of being an official from another hometown

The old men in Huayuan County spoke very accurately. It rained heavily for three days, and it only became smaller on the fourth morning, and some places even showed sunlight.

Zhang Zhong never went anywhere for a few days, so he stayed at the foot of Yaowang Mountain. When he encountered heavy water, he would let go no matter what he did and rushed to guard the embankment.

I was sleepy and lay in the house for a while, and when I was hungry, I made some things and ate them. After watching for three days, nothing happened miraculously.

The rain stopped, but the water level did not drop immediately. It took another half a day to let the water gathered upstream flow down more.

The people who worked were relieved and looked at the turbid lake over there. It was not too big, and the canal had to be kept. In the future, it would become a river injected into the lake. Then, a hole was opened from another place, so that the water of the lake could reach a certain level and then flow from that hole to the lower reaches of the river next to it, or it would become a separate river.

Zhang Zhong just went to bed at Yin this morning and got up at Si time. He slept well. He ate a meal that he didn't know what it was, and once again came to the river bank.

The people greeted each other, with deep respect in their eyes. The happiest people were the people who came here from outside to prepare to do some work. Since Zhang Zhong said that they could stay in Huayuan County, this news has been spread among them quickly.

"Master, please change your clothes. It's okay here. When the rain stops and the river falls, you have to go back to the yamen. I don't know how much things have been suppressed there."

The yamen runners followed Zhang Zhong with a new set of official uniforms and asked him to change it.

Zhang Zhong has been wearing the broken clothes for the past three days and has not washed them. At this time, he looked dirty and torn, without any official uniforms, but Zhang Zhong felt that he was a real official at this time.

"Don't worry, wait until the rain stops, otherwise it will get wet again. In the future, this lake belongs to our family. It can accommodate many people who can't find anything to do, and can also make money, no worse than those who are at the foot of Yaowang Mountain."

Zhang Zhong's eyes were placed on the turbid lake surface, imagining his future, and said happily.

The yamen runners were also happy. The more money the master's family had and the greater the power, the better the people from the inner courtyard would live, and they would have the confidence to go out. After thinking for a while, he said, "Master, I have a younger brother. I'm 21 years old this year. Why not let him raise some fish and shrimp here at that time, he hasn't found a wife yet."

"No." Zhang Zhong refused the request without thinking. The yamen runner was a little helpless, but he couldn't say anything. If the master didn't allow him to do it, he couldn't do it, but Zhang Zhong's next words made him happy again.

"Wouldn't it be a stolen person from the inner courtyard come to raise fish and shrimp? Let him be a manager here and take care of others. Then, if he likes a girl from a family, the master will help him get married and then separate him to live there."

"Ah? Master, really? Thank you, you don't have to be separated from me. Once you become a manager, you can marry you immediately. It's not a girl from any family, but from our inner courtyard. The better girls outside are not ordinary at home. The ordinary inner courtyard people at home don't like it. Only the people in the inner courtyard will like you. Hehe, Master, you will still live in the main house at that time, and you will have a house."

The yamen runner finally helped the family solve a big problem. My younger brother could get married. My younger brother had already gotten along with the girl, but the girl insisted on waiting for her brother to be promising. What kind of future can she have in the inner courtyard all day? If you do the work you should do, it will not count. It would be different if you come out to be a manager.

Zhang Zhong did not object to the mutual admiration of the people in the inner courtyard. As long as he abides by the rules and polites, he can get married if he likes them. In the future, he will have children and is the same as the inner courtyard. After hearing the yamen runners' words, he agreed:

"When you get married, the master will give you a dowry and a dowry to the woman. The back of the yamen will see if you can still buy the land and build a new house there. You can't treat the people in the inner courtyard unfairly."

"Thank you, Master. My brother won't be separated from the master's house by then. In the past two years, the two have saved some money and life will definitely be better. Master, who is the minister, doesn't find a way to inquire? What if he is doing something bad behind his back?"

The yamen runner imagined the situation when his younger brother got married. The more he thought about it, the happier he became. In the future, he would be a member of the master's family, so he would not have to spend any money. He would still be in charge of the master's family. When he had children, he would also help him raise him. He would go to school after he was a senior, and he would go to the academy if he was a senior.

Thinking of these good things, the yamen runner suddenly remembered the minister who came that day, but the master did not make any effort and was a little worried.

Zhang Zhong didn't care at all, "No matter what kind of assistant minister he is, he has not the courage to impeach me yet. As for doing bad things behind my back, let him do it. There are more people who want to do bad things for the Zhang family."

"What the master said is that our Zhang family is not afraid. Master, the young master and the young lady are here." As the yamen runner said, he saw the young masters coming from there at a glance. He took the initiative to take a few steps back and leave a place.

The rain was getting lighter, and Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan worked together to hold a big umbrella, rolled up their trousers, wore sandals woven with reeds, and came over with the water.

The two of them had just received a letter from the old man. In the letter, they mentioned the Minister of Works and the Minister of the Lu. The focus was on Zhang Zhong's departure after he finished the county magistrate. The old man wrote down the pros and cons, which meant that Zhang Zhong would become an official in a poor place in the future. As long as he had some achievements, he would be a great political achievement.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also had to admire the old man. It was not about the old man's idea, but to push this matter to the hatred Shilang Lu, giving him a chance to revenge, making him feel that Zhang Zhong wanted to enter the court, so he contacted some people to find a way to get Zhang Zhong to a remote and poor place.

This makes him feel comfortable, and the Zhang family saves some things. If someone helps with things, there is no need to benefit. There are not many such things.

After Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan sighed about the old fox, they came over to discuss with Zhang's father and asked Zhang's father whether he agreed. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan agreed. Zhang Xiaobao had made such arrangements, but he didn't expect that he would not just be able to become an official in various departments.

After the old man's explanation, I realized that I had to be a governor or a prefect in the local area. Otherwise, I would usually not be able to reach a higher position and could only be a deputy in some departments and be prepared to survive by luck. It was really difficult.

Wang Juan did not object to Zhang Xiaobao's proposal at the beginning because she thought of Yang Guozhong. This person relied on nepotism. The Zhang family did not have any imperial concubines, but the Zhang family could form such a form through other ways. Now, after reading the letter sent by the old man, he decided to do it according to the normal way.

The two of them came here. They didn't hold umbrellas when it rained heavily, and their bodies became wet when the wind blew, and it was just right when it rained lightly.

When Zhang Zhong turned around and saw his son and daughter-in-law coming, he smiled happily and said to the two of them: "Have you been at the foot of the mountain in the past three days? Do you want to find me to go home with you?"

"Dad, the mountain is lively and not annoying, but you really have to go home. You can't always let others deal with the matters in the yamen. Dad, Grandpa Bi sends a letter, you can take a look."

When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan walked forward, Zhang Xiaobao took out the letter from his arms and handed it to his father while saying that.

Zhang Zhong thought it was Bi Gou who wrote another letter to the school entrance examination, but he didn't care. He casually took out the letter. When he fell in love with it, he realized that the letter was written specifically for him.

"Xiaobao, isn't it a bit too early to talk about this matter at this time?" Zhang Zhong actually didn't want to be an official outside. It's so good that the official in Beijing was written clearly. If he didn't become an official outside, he would not find any opportunity to go further in the future. Unless he encountered something big, he needed to use a deputy from a certain department and a deputy to do things very well before he could be valued.

Zhang Xiaobao has learned so much psychology, how could he not know what his father thought? He persuaded him: "Dad, it's getting late, you really want to work for three or five years? After the autumn harvest this year, all the infrastructure is done well, and all the transactions have also started, Huayuan County is only higher than Sanshui County.

Dad, you are still young, even under thirty years old, and you are only in your twenties. You can go to Beijing to become an official now. You can work more at home to do chores in various departments first, and then you can make some money or get some small achievements. You can mention it a little, but if you want to be the Minister of the State, it will take at least ten years.

You are young for ten years, thirty-four or five years old, but if you want to be a minister, you may not only be able to sit for ten years, but you can also think of more ways to let your father go up, but your child is too tired. That is not a simple political achievement, but also a political struggle with other senior officials.

Dad, don’t you want to do something big? Only officials are not enough. The Zhang family still needs a lot of money to support them, and the child still needs to make money. Although Juanjuan is helping, Juanjuan must also have his own things to do at that time."

Zhang Xiaobao told the truth. Zhang Zhong looked at his son and then realized that his son was still a child and was so tired. He had to have his own affairs when he grew up. He could not help him stay busy all day long. He had to learn more of this kind of thing in the future and could not always study.

It’s better to go to the local area, the more conflicts you are in, which is also a kind of learning and exercise. If you really go directly to the North Korea, have family helps you, and you are still an official who handles chores. Your colleagues will give in to yourself and don’t get too much exercise.

Why not go outside and take a look. If you are a little poorer place, you can do it with your son's ability, just copy some things from Sanshui County and Huayuan County.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhong didn't know whether to be happy or helpless. What he had no experience in the officialdom was that he had too little experience in the officialdom and had to let others protect him. What he was happy was that if he thought he was like this, he could be said to be arrogant. If he said he was the top scorer, he would win the top scorer. When it came to Huayuan as the county magistrate, that's it.

Now even the county magistrate can arrange it for the officials who come to Beijing and other places, and you can choose as you choose. It is time to be content to be an official.
