Chapter 332: Just look at the other party whether to let it go
"Here, come, sir, they are here." As soon as he saw the boat carrying so many lanterns coming, the yamen runners beside Feng Changgong shouted one after another. They knew that if they could light so many lanterns, they must be the ones sent from the above. Others were not as generous as they could, especially merchants, who could save as much as possible.
Feng Changgong also looked over there, with a relieved smile on his face. This time was so good that he could arrange their accommodation issues and then go to Li Linfu to discuss what to do.
Looking at the boat from afar, he couldn't get close to him for a while. Feng Changgong thought about it and personally led the people forward to greet him.
At this time, Li Linfu and Cui Rizhi were standing on the bow of the boat. Cui Rizhi stood a little further ahead, and Li Linfu was slightly behind, looking very humble.
"This is their construction site. I didn't expect that there were people working at night. It's good. Once a workshop is set up here in the future, the lives of local people will be easier. The county may become the most prosperous place."
Cui Rizhi also saw the fire in the distance and the figures swaying there, and said to Li Linfu beside him.
"Yes, Lord Cui will have more ideas in the future and build this place when the time comes." Li Linfu was so low-key along the way, putting his position very well, and he didn't look like he was against Cui Rizhi at all.
Cui Rizhi actually had nothing to say. It was always like this when Zhang and Wang families were built. There were people working day and night, and they were working shifts. It was very fast, but it was very expensive, especially torches and food supplied at night.
But who makes people rich? This method is the most typical way to exchange money for time. It is very useful, but not many people are willing to use it.
Cui Rizhi likes to talk to Li Linfu very much because when he speaks, he can feel respected and his impression of Li Linfu is getting better and better.
Hearing Li Linfu echoed himself, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said, "Mr. Li, I wonder if you have any ideas about the things in the county in the future?"
"When I say to you, Xiaguan is thinking that as long as the rules set by the Zhang and Wang families should not object. Xiaguan is not capable of doing better than the Zhang and Wang families." Li Linfu knew that at this time, he could not continue to say that everything was done by the adults. He had to say something, and at the same time, it was also to test Cui Rizhi.
Cui Rizhi, who was very happy just now, put down his smile again, and hummed slightly with his nose, saying, "Mr. Li doesn't have to belittle himself. In fact, the things that Zhang and Wang families do have routines. Now I know one or two, and I can help make up for their omissions at that time.
After all, if Zhang Xiaobao can't run here all day, then there will naturally be some unthinkable things. In the future, Lord Li will have to help me think more and not make any mistakes, even if it is the Zhang and Wang family."
"Yes, after Lord said this, Xiaguan really figured it out. Zhang Xiaobao is amazing, but he can't take care of Xincai County when he was in Baoxin County. Xiaguan thought that after taking over the job, he would ask about the specific plan carefully, so that he could find the omissions and improve it."
Li Linfu was still so respectful, and at the same time he could put forward some of his own ideas. Of course, his ideas followed Cui Rizhi.
But he didn't think so at all. If there were any tricks in the behavior of Zhang and Wang families, they were to find ways to use local natural resources and then arrange them according to the specific situation of the local area. One was the infrastructure construction, which needed to be grasped, and the other was the people's livelihood.
But such routines cannot be learned to do in detail in every place. They must be adjusted at any time, just like the court. There are also routines. One is to find ways to gradually improve the lives of the people in the Tang Dynasty, the other is to be cautious when externally, and the third is to make more arrangements when money is enough.
This routine is the same as not saying it.
Do you really think what the Zhang and Wang families did is so easy to imitate? If that were the case, there would not be countless Zhongxian and Xiaxian counties now.
Thinking of this, Li Linfu already had a better understanding of Cui Rizhi, which was that he was more conceited and could be used in this regard.
Cui Rizhi didn't know that he had exposed his weaknesses in just a few words, and he was still fantasizing about finding out the problems in the transactions between Zhang and Wang families at that time, and then supplementing them.
Yes, just supplementing, not directly opposing, he dares not. Replenishing is not good, which can make Zhang and Wangliang less prestige. When others see it, it turns out that the Zhang and Wangliang family will also do something wrong, and Cui Rizhi can improve his reputation and kill two birds with one stone.
The two of them were talking about the future. Feng Changgong had already brought people to the shore next to the marching ship. While following to a pier downstream, he shouted: "Is the ones on the ship Lord Cui, Lord Li and Lord Yan? Feng Changgong, welcoming him late."
He said he was a low-ranking official, but in fact, Feng Changgong was about to be promoted. There is a prerequisite, that is, he should not be found in trouble, otherwise he would not be promoted to somewhere, but whether he could maintain his official position.
"Mr. Cui, the person on the shore is Feng Changgong, the county magistrate of Xincai County." Li Linfu heard the voice and said to Cui Rizhi. At the same time, he also looked on the shore. Someone lit a torch there to illuminate it. He couldn't see exactly what Feng Changgong looked like, but he could only know that the person in the official uniform was him.
Cui Rizhi also turned his head to watch, and took a look, and stopped paying attention, but said to Li Linfu: "Mr. Li, at this time, he did not rest in the county and ran here to greet him. He didn't know when we would come. It was probably to watch every day and wait every day.
When I come to take office, it is not something that makes people wait, but I want to let the local people live a better life. Lord Li said, can he still get up to handle official duties during the day? How can he do things for the people?"
Cui Rizhi came here with what Zhang said, not allowing the other party's people to rise smoothly, and he was worried about how to cause trouble. Unexpectedly, the other party gave him an opportunity and was happy.
Li Linfu also complained about Feng Changgong, it would be great to do things honestly and insist on showing his attention. Isn’t it clear that the people who came here this time were specifically targeted at him? Before he took over, he was caught in an omission and became even more passive.
After thinking about it, Li Linfu did not say good things to Feng Changgong, and also followed Cui Rizhi's statement: "What the lord said is not bad. Feng Changgong's mind was not on official business. He would delay rest in welcoming an official. After getting off the ship, I will definitely teach him a lesson."
"There is no need to teach him a lesson. I can't teach him a lesson when I am now. Just write a letter to tell the court about the matter." Cui Rizhi finally found a chance, but how could he miss it easily? He wanted to use this matter to take down Feng Changgong in one fell swoop. Once the memorial was delivered, it would come to Zhang Shuo's hands. I think that such a serious matter would not be let go.
Li Linfu had to fight for some voice for himself at this time, and said it very well. "Mr. Cui, the official thinks that the lesson must be taught. You cannot let him go because of the insufficient grade or the same. You will write a letter to see what the court says."
"Yeah, okay." Cui Rizhi didn't object now, as long as Li Linfu was willing to write a letter with him.
Feng Changgong, who didn't know he was going to be unlucky, was still running on the shore, saying good things constantly, even if no one on the other side responded.
As a result, he could not keep up with the speed of the boat going downstream. The boat arrived first, and he was still panting and twitching his legs tightly.
When he ran to the dock, Cui Rizhi and Li Linfu had already arrived ashore, and the one named Yan who was the one who took over the position of county magistrate was followed behind him.
"Big, sir, I, I am..."
"Mr. Feng, do you know your crime?" Feng Changgong, who was unable to breathe, said something. Li Linfu asked loudly, which scared Feng Changgong. He was even more breathless now. He was anxious and looked at Li Linfu, not knowing why this person who was with him should have been dealing with him first as soon as he got off the boat.
The county magistrate next to him quickly found some water and handed it to Feng Changgong for him to drink.
Without waiting for Feng Changgong to ask why he was guilty, Li Linfu said directly: "You are not at the yamen at night, and you are waiting for the officials who have been here to take over. I think this has been like this for many days, right? The official asked you, how should you work during the day? Is there anything else you need to watch here? Is this official must submit a memorial?"
After hearing Li Linfu's words, Feng Changgong finally recovered. So that's how it is. It seems that it must have been suggested by the other party's person, and Li Linfu is helping him.
If there was no construction site here, he wouldn't be able to say anything, but he was still working hard there. Without thinking too much, he could explain.
"Sir, you have wronged me. Where is the one who welcomes the successor? I can't do such a thing even when I'm idle. I may not do that well enough, but I am definitely dedicated to the people. There is a workshop here. I am worried that something happened suddenly, or that I will dig out the ground during the construction process, so that the dike will be broken.
If that is true, when will the people in the county live a good life? I am not always watching here. I will sleep for a while when I am tired. When I wake up, I think about what to do to make the people in Xincai County better in a short period of time and cooperate with the Zhang and Wang families to prosper the county's economy."
This is so nice that it makes people feel comfortable when they hear it. At least Li Linfu feels comfortable and happy in his heart. His face is calm and he still teaches a lesson: "The idea is good, but it must not be good at Gao Wuyuan. You must be solid and don't think that the economy of a place can improve in a short period of time.
As long as you do what you should do, you will be a good official. Otherwise, it is easy to do something wrong with kindness. Pay more attention to rest. Your body is not yours alone, but the entire Xincai County. For such irregular sleeping things, you must change in the future.”
"Yes, yes, I know, I will definitely change it. Take care of my health for the sake of the people. The lower officials know that they are wrong, the lower officials..."
"Mr. Feng, what troubles are there here? Are there tents here?" Cui Rizhi's good mood disappeared. Hearing Li Linfu and Feng Changgong say that, the matter that was to be punished just now seemed to have changed, and it became a matter of being praised.
This is not good. If you continue, I probably have to accompany you to write a letter and praise Feng Changgong. This is definitely not the goal I want to achieve.
I heard the two of them talking there, and they both felt disgusted and wanted to vomit. They were too shameless and interrupted and couldn't let him continue talking.
Feng Changgong breathed a sigh of relief and replied quickly: "Yes, there are tents, but tents are usually for the tired people to live in. It is better to go back to the county overnight. There are places there, so there is no need to compete with the people."
Since Feng Changgong decided to be a good official who did not flatter him, he started to whisper to the people one by one, and he didn't want to urging Rizhi here at all, because it was inconvenient to speak here and it was easy for people to eavesdrop. When he went back to make arrangements, he would be separated.
Cui Rizhi's face became ugly. He was tired and wanted to go to bed early. He was uncomfortable sleeping on the boat. He finally stood there and prepared to rest early and settle down. Unexpectedly, the other party refused again with the reason he had just said.
Li Linfu was secretly laughing at the side, but he didn't expect Feng Changgong to be so interesting. Depending on the situation, Xincai County should not find any trouble, so he could easily and wait until he knew about it before he could deal with it.
Cui Rizhi didn't say much about this matter, so he had to get into the car helplessly and walked towards the county town.
It took me more than an hour and it was already midnight before I was shouted out in half a dream and half awake. I got out of the car and went into the arranged residence, and fell on the couch and whistled.
Li Linfu was also arranged, and there was also the county lieutenant named Yan.
After arranging everyone's rest, Feng Changgong had to find Li Linfu and wanted to call Li Linfu up and talk about recent things, including how he offended Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
I thought Li Linfu could fall asleep, but when I arrived at the place, I found that Li Linfu had not changed his clothes, and sat there waiting, drinking tea from time to time.
"Mr. Li, the official is here." Feng Changgong said respectfully.
"Sit down and talk about the matter in the county. Don't hide anything, otherwise even if the gods come, they won't help you." Li Linfu knew that the other party would come over, so he nodded slightly, let the other party sit down and say slowly that although he is sleepy, he must endure it, otherwise something will happen easily, and there may be no time tomorrow morning.
"Yes." Feng Changgong sat next to him and began to say to Li Linfu, "This is the thing..."
As Li Linfu asked, Feng Changgong told everything he knew, without adding any subjective ideas, and even how he offended Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, what strategies he used, the other party did not respond, etc., without any omission.
He knew that the officials sent this time were divided into two factions, some wanted to deal with themselves, and some wanted to protect themselves. Once important things were missed, not only would they finish them themselves, but the people above were also in trouble.
Li Linfu slowly drank tea without interrupting Feng Changgong's words. As he listened, his face darkened. After hearing the Taoist priests Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan left and said before that day, sweat had already oozed out of his forehead.
He asked anxiously: "What did the Taoist priest named Ru Meng really say that? He said it was a matter of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. All the Taoist priests you found to chase after dreams? After you offended them that day, you used a trick again. They didn't cause trouble for you?"
"Yes, that's it. Now, the local people will be convinced by Zhu Meng's words in the future. As long as the workshop is not involved, there will be no problem. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan probably haven't thought of a way to deal with me yet, so they can only do it."
Speaking of this matter, Feng Changgong seemed very happy.
"You can even follow the dreams of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors? Why do you come to him for? Those are the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, how about the current saints?"
Li Linfu asked in a pity, and emphasized the four words "Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors".
After a while, Feng Changgong was sweating. Rumeng said a lot that day, but he kept thinking about how to plot against Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and ignored many things. If it were replaced by officials in the court, he would have reacted long ago.
Now that Li Linfu emphasized four words, he finally understood that if someone exposes the matter and adds some more words, he will be done, but he didn't ask about the emperor's affairs? It turns out that he is waiting here, and Ru Meng is not a god.
Thinking of this, Feng Changgong's face was pale and Li Linfu begged: "Mr. Li saved me. I didn't let him come over and talk about the emperor's affairs, just look at the place."
"If you say there is no, there is no? Zhu Meng has lived with you for so many days. Who knows if you secretly asked him to do this? Oh, I am going to be killed by you, and I don't dare to provoke Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan on the initiative. Why do you think they don't like it? If you want to lead the river, just lead it.
They are not the kind of people who only do their own interests and ignore others. I understand that you are not convinced by the two of them. If you want to compete, you dare to say that they have not taken action. Prince Tong'an has already submitted a memorial to specifically talk about your affairs and is very dissatisfied with you.
This time Cui Rizhi came here, not just as simple as taking office. You need to clean up the plan. Zhang Xiaobao is indeed Zhang Xiaobao. This plan is good. You can hold you up and then use a knife to kill people.
They have already taken action. It is because of you that they built workshops here, with the purpose of robbing Xincai Sheng's contribution to the county, at least not letting you take it, and letting people compete for the position. Now you see that people from both sides of the court sent third- and fourth-rank officials to be county magistrates and books. How important do you think Xincai County is?
No wonder Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan went through the usual channels to write books, instead of using Feige, just to let Zhang Shuo understand the matter in Xincai County. No wonder the list they put forward was full of our people. They wanted to seduce Zhang Shuo to interfere when arranging people's affairs and attack us."
When Li Linfu got off the boat, he thought Feng Changgong was very smart and no longer had that idea at this moment. Smart people did a lot of stupid things and wanted to deal with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, but they offended him so ruthlessly. He really wanted to deal with him as a seventh-rank county magistrate. That was a joke, a big joke.
The two half-old children, like human spirits, have only seen them plot against others, but have never seen them suffer losses. Even the emperor has the same place. They need a place, Jiannan Road and the northeast, and were arranged to Fengzhou. When their family went over and built happily, they realized that they were thinking about it.
After a long round, I finally plotted against everyone. If such a person can be easily dealt with, the sun will probably be able to hit the west tomorrow.
Li Linfu thought about the layout of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan this time, and sighed. He might not have been able to do it if he had done it. He was a good plan. If he hadn't come over, after listening to Feng Changgong, people on his side would have thought that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were facing him, and that was not the case at all.
Feng Changgong was stupid. After listening to Li Linfu's analysis, he was not too stupid. He finally understood the purpose of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's series of actions. It was not that he had not taken action, but that he had already taken action, but he didn't see it. Now he understood it, but he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Mr. Li, is there any other way? They took out money to Xincai Xiu Workshop just to deal with me? They really did whatever they could to achieve their goals."
Feng Changgong asked for help from Li Linfu.
Li Linfu was so angry that he heard Feng Changgong's words, "You're just a fool. People really want to deal with you with better ways and more direct means. They really want to make the people of Xincai live a better life. After all, Xincai is close to Baoxin County. If Xincai is brought up, the two counties can rely on each other and develop together.
To be continued...
