Chapter 109: Invitation to the Shrine

In the Liyang Iron Field, red flags fluttered, and the crowds of enthusiastic joining the army will be set up at the gate of the Iron Field, which will cause the outer liaison office of the Admiral Maritime Office, who was in charge of the recruitment work, and the Liyang Royal Iron Field Office of the Printing Song Sibao was very pleased. The hard work and fatigue of several days have become insignificant at this moment.

"All the girls who have agreed to come?"

Song Sibao asked Ma Bao, the Iron Court clerk around him with concern. This was the accountant recruited by Xu Yuan from Nandu. He was very smart and capable, and was highly valued by Song Sibao.

"Don't worry, my father-in-law, everyone has come. How can the promised things change? We have real money and silver. If we don't come, wouldn't we behave like a monkey? You can spare them, and the magistrate Jing can't spare them." Ma Bao knew the rules very well. Although Eunuch Song valued it, he had no etiquette. He always kept his body slightly bowed when answering.

Song Sibao nodded, very satisfied. After receiving the imperial army recruitment order from Eunuch Wei, he spent a lot of effort to complete the task successfully.

First of all, he went to Nandu to ask for advice in the propaganda and mobilization, and spent a lot of money to buy some propaganda slogans, such as the "Men who have ambition must serve the country, and a hero is forged by Jin Jieshi, a fortune teller in Confucius Temple, and the "Sons and grandchildren of Yan and Huang are good children, actively joining the army to be the imperial army" written by Zhang Zhisheng, a teacher in the Imperial College of Nandu, and the mobilization slogans written by Zhang Zhishi in Liyang, "Heroes appear on the battlefield, and the pen to join the army to develop geniuses" are all unique and exciting.

In addition to the propaganda slogans spread throughout the Iron Farm, Liyang County, and all mines, towns and villages, Song Sibao also organized several mobilization teams to go deep into the rural mines, actively promoting the benefits of miners, porters and local people to the Imperial Army and joining the Imperial Army. With the cooperation of Liyang County, the publicity and mobilization work was in full swing.

The day before yesterday, when the staff from the Maritime Affairs Office, the garrison yamen and the Imperial Army Conscription Office came to Liyang to inspect the conscription work, they expressed their satisfaction with the publicity work on the iron field. They believed that the publicity work of the Liyang Imperial Field can be used as a model for the Special Zone and the Imperial Army. It is said that Eunuch Wei has been reported to organize several study groups to come to Liyang to learn advanced experience, and fortunately, the Special Zone and the Imperial Army promotion.

If this could be done, Song Sibao would be very proud of his face.

Although he was illiterate, he had to read several passages of "Wei Gong's Collection" and the latest spirit of Eunuch Wei's speech sent to him every day. Because he had received face-to-face teaching from Eunuch Wei, Song Sibao, as a eunuch, had obviously more political awareness than ordinary people. From the latest spirit of Eunuch Wei's speech, he realized that the word propaganda appeared more often, so he specially asked someone to go to the Special Administrative Region to help him check what propaganda is.

After understanding the mystery of propaganda, Eunuch Wei proposed to expand the Imperial Army at the meeting of senior generals of the entire army. Liyang Iron Field was ordered to recruit 1,500 to 2,000 miners and porters to join the army. So Song Sibao made a decisive arrangement and personally held a meeting of the management of the Iron Field and the sub-mines, requiring the Iron Field and the sub-mines to take the conscription work as the primary task at the moment, and the propaganda and mobilization work on the conscription work as the top priority.

Under the attention and pressure of Song Sibao, the conscription and publicity and mobilization work of Liyang Iron Field has indeed made a good start and showed a new atmosphere. It not only satisfies the two major yamen and the Imperial Army Base Camp of the Special Administrative Region that came to inspect the work, but also opened the eyes of the magistrate of Liyang. The Yu Yamen staff said: "Since Eunuch Wei came to Liyang, my small county in Liyang has been reborn. Not only are the people living and working in peace and contentment, but all industries are also booming. Not only are the people close to the people, but their officers and soldiers are also closely connected with the people. It is really a blessing for the officials and people in Liyang!"

In the Houya and the newly-acquired concubine Yan more than three years ago, he said: "Previously, the Duke of Wei occupied the iron field. Xu Yuan bullied me, a magistrate, and made me do it like a small official, and made me do it every day like walking on thin ice for five years. Xu Yuan regarded me like a dog and called me around several times, but I couldn't leave. I really lived like a year... Fortunately, my Majesty sent Eunuch Wei to besides Xu Yuan, which shocked the Duke of Wei, and comforted me, so that I could finally taste the taste of being a parent. To put it in detail, Eunuch Wei is the new parent of Daqian and the backer of my official career. If you want to be rich in the future, you must follow Eunuch Wei wholeheartedly, otherwise a disaster will come."

Yan was also bullied by Xu Yuanxiang, and now he thinks that he is afraid. He knows that not only his wealth or honor is due to Eunuch Wei, but also to Eunuch Wei's security, so he advises the master to do something to express his loyalty to Eunuch Wei.

She said, "I heard that the Duke of Nandu and the Uncle Hou had no choice but to do anything to do with that Duke Wei. He also heard that the current Majesty and the Imperial Concubine are the most favored by Eunuch Wei. Once the Duke of Wei returns to the capital in the future, he will be a great master. The Master was a Juren in his thirties and was a Jinshi in his forties. He has been an official in Liyang for five years, but he is still a county magistrate. If the Master does not make progress, he will probably end his career here. In my opinion, it would be better for the Master to completely surrender to Eunuch Wei. In this way, Eunuch Wei will respect the Master. With his current status and power, it is difficult for the Master to not be promoted."

When the magistrate Qing heard this, he agreed, but he was determined to stick to Eunuch Wei in order to seek a future. However, Eunuch Wei was in Wusong Special Zone, but he was in Liyang, the southern capital. How could he have a way to stick to Eunuch?

"I really want to send you to my father-in-law for a few days, but my father-in-law..." County Magistrate Yu yelled.

"The master is willing to give up on me," Yan said, "I can't help but laugh, "but I'm afraid that the master will flatter the horse's hooves. No matter how good my skills are, no matter how mysterious it is, then Eunuch Wei can't find out the depth of my body."

After saying that, Yan suddenly said seriously, "If you don't tell me some jokes, I have a way to please Eunuch Wei, but I wonder if the master is willing to try it?"

When the magistrate of Qing heard this, he was overjoyed and asked Yan what tricks he had. Yan asked her husband to listen to it. After hearing this, the magistrate of Qing was stunned at first, and then embarrassedly said, "Is this method too embarrassing?"

"If you think it's embarrassing, you'll be the magistrate, don't think about anything else. If you want to be promoted, you have to give up on him... And there's nothing wrong with this method. Eunuch Wei has recreated the people of Liyang. So what if the master builds a temple for him?" Yan said.

The magistrate Qing nodded slightly. This method was really good, but it was too embarrassing. He just wanted to let him think about it, but he carried Yan to bed and got him asleep.
