There are also cases involving conflicts between the local government and the military in the Ministry of Justice. Li Qiu is only a local person. He doesn't care about the military side and leaves it to Lu Jing to handle.
In addition, for some cases involving the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works, he would also ask Shao Wenzhao and Yu Changlin to discuss with Chen Wenqi and Ma Wuming. Whatever suggestions the two ministers had, no matter whether they were right or wrong, there was no need to argue, everything would be handled according to their opinions!
He has a very good sense of proportion and never oversteps his bounds.
It can be seen that he has received guidance from an expert...
Almost every day, he would go into the palace to pay respects to the emperor. Regardless of whether the emperor was seen or not, he would come regardless of the weather. Of course, he would also go to pay homage to the queen. Regardless of whether the queen was seen or not, he would kowtow and salute outside the palace.
We also have a very harmonious relationship with our two brothers. We would visit every now and then to say hello and ask for advice. We were extremely humble and respectful.
There is only one thing he does that is a little flamboyant, that is, he likes to reward people, and he is also very bold in his actions. He is especially generous to the eunuchs in the palace, the imperial guards and the guards of the imperial army...
And all the officials who come to see him are given more or less rewards and gifts, and they are never allowed to go out empty-handed. This temperament is similar to Xiao Chen's.
But he was only allowed to reward others, but he did not accept any gifts. Except for the charcoal tribute sent by officials from other places in accordance with regulations, he did not accept anything else.
Even once Shao Wenzhao brought a big watermelon from Yanyun, but he turned it away.
Shao Wenzhao was so angry that he directly asked for the knife from the palace guard, cut it open at the door and ate them all.
Although somewhat unkind, the title of Li Qiu, the Xuanping Wise King, slowly spread.
Of course, he didn't accept gifts at all. For example, when Xiao Chen gave him things, he accepted them all without any courtesy.
The reason is also very simple. Xiao Chen is a rich man. Now Yanyun County is almost the richest county in our Zhou Dynasty. As a governor, I am afraid that he will have too much money to spend. I can only spend it for him. it's nothing.
To put it nicely, this is called "The way of heaven makes up for the deficiency when it damages more". To put it less nicely, it is "rob the rich and give to the poor", which belongs to the category of "theft also has its way." '
And what Xiao Chen gave him was not a small gift, but a big gift!
He kept his promise and planned to cooperate with Li Qiu in a private name to open two factories in Fengyang City, one is a canning factory and the other is a sugar factory. Due to technical equipment or other reasons, the canning factory will not be completed until next year, but the sugar factory will not be completed. Construction was quickly completed and has been put into production.
Because the two parties cooperated, they each held half of the shares. Of course, the shareholders could not be Xiao Chen and Li Qiu, but Fatty and Qu Baimei. Fatty was the factory owner, and Qu Baimei was the deputy director, so it was joint management.
If any person in the world saw the disciples of the Shangguan family and the elders of the Demon Sect sitting together, calculating and settling accounts, they would definitely fall in love with him!
And these two people soon became famous people in Fengyang City. Not only did the businessmen in the city flock to them, but even the officials of the imperial court had to talk down to them and flatter them.
Why? Just because demand exceeds supply.
Although Fatty and Qu Baimei set the price of sugar very high, it was still much cheaper than buying it from Yanyun, so before they officially started production, orders from all over the world were already coming in like snow.
No one bargained, and all of them took the initiative to ask for a deposit...
Even the Ministry of War took the initiative to send two large carts of cash. Li Toyota, the doctor of the Ministry of War, who pledged the money, demanded that the factory accept it and sign the order immediately.
It's impossible not to sign, because our Lord Shangshu has issued a fatal order. If you don't accept this order, then this factory will not open...
overbearing? Do you know that our Ministry of War has always been so domineering?
Both Fatty and Qu Baimei expressed their embarrassment. Although your Ministry of War is very domineering, other departments are also very domineering. You are like the Jinyi Guards. They sent troops directly...
Do you think those royal guards outside are there to maintain law and order? Not really! They are waiting to steal our products!
For this reason, Li Hong, the minister of the Ministry of Works, specially sent a group of craftsmen to reinforce our walls...
King Yandang even came to inspect it in person and also ordered a batch of sugar. Although he didn't give a deposit or sign the order, it was the prince!
Speaking is equivalent to the king's order, do we dare to disobey it?
In addition, there are countless people from various parties, all of whom are quite powerful.
Therefore, we can collect deposits and sign orders, but the quantity is not that large. We must consider reducing it, otherwise we will never comply!
After all, no one really dares to be tough, because everyone knows who is the boss behind the sugar factory. One is King Xuanping and the other Xiao Chen. Who dares to offend these two?
Otherwise, the fight would have started long ago, what do you think?
If you can't be tough, you can only be soft, talk about friendship, get close, and save face...
So you know why Xiao Chen asked Fatty to be the factory director and the deputy director is Qu Baimei, right? This is simply not an errand that ordinary people can handle!
The first snow in Fengyang City came later than in previous years.
But it didn't stop falling, and there was a heavy snowfall. Xiao Chen got up in the morning and pushed the door open. He saw that the whole courtyard was covered in snow, and the world was vast. His mind was filled with it, didn't he?
"Why isn't there anyone sweeping the snow? You're all such a slacker!" Xiao Chen stepped out, but unexpectedly there was ice melting under the snow. Unexpectedly, he sat on the ground, got up and became angry.
"Who are you talking about, boss, this early in the morning?" A pretty boy came walking through the snow, leaving no trace on the snow.
"Yuan Qiu is here?" Xiao Chen slapped his butt, "It's been a hard work."
"It's not hard work. Just walking around and having fun is like traveling." It was the little fox Li Yuanqiu who came.
"Damn, it's such a heavy snow! It's still very hot over there in the south of the Yangtze River... Hello, boss, Gehua, please say hello to the boss! The ground here is so heavy that I won't kneel down." A man came on the snow, surrounded by slush. But it was the bear demon Li Gehua.
"What's the matter with you two here?" Xiao Chen asked casually, "Or did you find any clues?"
"I found some clues during the investigation." Li Yuanqiu said.
"But it's not conclusive." Li Gehua said.
"After all, there are too many clues like this, and it's hard to tell whether they are true or false. It won't be too late to report them to the boss after we find out clearly." Li Yuanqiu said.
"Now let's go and say hello to Mr. Zhao," Li Gehua said.
Since they joined Xiao Chen, they have been following Zhao Gongming on errands. They can be regarded as Zhao Gongming's people...demon...mainly because these two people still have demonic auras in them. Except for Zhao Gongming, the king of hell, ordinary people can't suppress him. Live them.
"The snow is so beautiful, why do you need to sweep it?" A clear and sweet voice was Qianye Ling.
"If you don't sweep it and turn it into mud by noon, how can you still walk in this yard?" A rough and unpleasant voice came from the fat man.
"You really don't understand amorous feelings!" Qianye Ling said angrily.
"Let me explain to you... Did you sleep cold last night? Look at how cold your hands are... What are you doing here so early in the morning?" The fat man came over holding Qianye Ling's hand. .
Just like a couple of magical pig heroes.
