Yan Qi looked gloating: "Prime Minister Yang, what the Eight Wise Kings are asking you, do you think it makes sense?"
Yang Ke didn't have time to feel depressed. He met the condescending eyes of the Eight Wise Kings and smiled: "What the Wise King said is right, but I didn't think it through carefully."
Then he looked at Yan Qi: "Deputy Minister Yan, if you have any requests, just say it. Accepting orders at a critical moment does require some serious rewards."
Yan Qidao: "Then I said it."
Yang Ke said: "Tell me."
Yan Qidao: "If I am called upon at a critical moment and complete the task perfectly, how about you promote me to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry? Hehe, this is not too much to ask for."
"What?"
Yang Ke and Jiang Dongqu screamed at the same time.
Shh!
There was also a commotion among the officials.
Everyone was shocked by Yan Qi's words.
The Eight Wise King's brows twitched, his eyes full of doubts.
Jiang Dongqu couldn't hold it in anymore: "Yan Qi, what do you mean? I am the Minister of Works, and you still want to be the Minister of Works. How can there be two Ministers of Works in one Ministry of Works?"
Yan Qi smiled: "Shilang Jiang, if you don't want to be the Shilang, you don't have to do it. No one is forcing you."
"You...you...are really unreasonable."
Jiang Dongqu was impatient: "Yan Qi, Yan Qi, you are sincerely looking for trouble, aren't you?"
Yan Qi was in no hurry: "Where did I find fault? I checked the historical data. Thirteen years ago, the Ministry of Industry did have a precedent of two ministers. Since there is a precedent to follow, it doesn't hurt to set up two ministers. .Isn’t that right, Minister Jiang?”
"you……"
Jiang Dongqu was speechless and looked at Yang Ke: "Prime Minister Yang, Yan Qi is simply unreasonable. How can he have such ridiculous demands?"
How could Yang Ke agree to Yan Qi's ridiculous request: "Deputy Minister Yan, are your demands too high?"
"Is it high?"
Yan Qi looked solemn: "I don't think it's high at all. Think about it, Prime Minister Yang mentioned that if you make mistakes, you will be punished, and if you have merit, you will be rewarded. Is this an empty talk?"
"Besides, I don't want to think about it. What kind of punishment will I face if I can't complete the task? It's dismissal. Say important things three times, dismissal, dismissal, dismissal! Then rewards and punishments must be equal, right? When punishing me , it’s a harsh dismissal. Shouldn’t I be rewarded with a promotion? Prime Minister Yang, everything in the world cannot be justified.
I would like to ask Prime Minister Yang to answer whether what I just said makes sense. "
This is a stupid answer.
Prime Minister Yang hesitated, his face turned red from holding back, and he could not answer.
Officials were talking a lot.
"What Yan Qi said makes sense. If you fail to complete the task, you will be dismissed. If you complete the task, you should be promoted. Otherwise, rewards and punishments are not equal at all."
"That's right, this is only fair, otherwise, who would still have fun?"
"It sounds ridiculous, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense."
Yang Ke thought for a while and responded: "Deputy Minister Yan is trying to force someone to do something difficult. Forcibly changing the system of ministerial affairs, you can't do it this way."
Yan Qidao: "The Shangshu Province system was established by people, and it can naturally be corrected by people. Moreover, since I was appointed in critical situation, there should be an extraordinary reward. Otherwise, what is the point of accepting orders in critical situations?"
"this……"
Yang Ke was speechless after being refuted.
Yan Qi looked at the Eight Wise Kings again: "Sir Wise King, for example, when marching and fighting, who is the most dangerous?"
The Eight Wise Kings said: "Of course he is a pioneer officer."
Yan Qidao: "The wise king is indeed proficient in the art of war. A pioneer officer opens roads in the mountains, builds bridges when encountering water, and is the first to meet the enemy soldiers. This is the most dangerous, but it also makes the greatest contribution. Anyone who can serve as a pioneer officer must be an amazing talent. How can ordinary people be able to take on the role of such a beautiful warrior?"
"A pioneer officer is in danger of going through life and death, licking blood at the edge of his knife. How can a reward be trivial? If there is no heavy reward, how can there be a brave man? Wise King, what I say comes from the bottom of my heart. Please judge."
The Eighth Sage King nodded: "What Vice Minister Yan said is absolutely true."
Yan Qidao: "I was ordered in danger, what is the difference between me and a vanguard officer marching to fight? The horse bones cost a lot of gold! Wise King, if you intend to set an example for the ministers, you should have a sharp eye like a torch and make a decision on this matter."
The Eighth Sage King was so complimented by Yan Qi's words that he made a decision directly without looking at Yang Ke's expression: "Deputy Minister Yan, it's up to you, as long as you can solve the heating problem within half a month. , I will make the decision to promote you to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry."
Yang Ke shouted: "No."
Jiang Dongqu looked frustrated: "No way."
Yan Qi immediately bowed: "The wise king is wise, thank you so much."
The Eight Wise Kings were in a particularly happy mood.
He yawned: "Today's performance test has yielded a lot. I hope that all ministers will be self-restrained and dedicated to the public service and do their duty well. The remaining trivial matters will be handled by Prime Minister Yang. I have other matters, so I will take the first step."
"Farewell to the virtuous king."
The officials stood up and bowed.
Yang Ke personally sent the Eight Wise Kings out of the gate.
Yang Ke returned and gave Yan Qi an indescribably ugly look.
The most depressing person is Jiang Dongqu.
Jiang Dongqu's nose turned red and he stared at Yan Qi with a sinister look on his face: "You actually sang opposite me."
Yan Qi smiled: "What? You can be the assistant minister? Can't I be the assistant minister?"
Jiang Dongqu shouted: "One minister is enough, why two?"
Yan Qi was so angry that he would not pay for his life: "The standard number of deputy ministers is four, why must there be only one assistant minister? Can't two assistant ministers do it? Mr. Jiang, don't panic, I'm just afraid that you will be tired, and I want to help you share some of the burden. Work."
"snort!"
Jiang Dongqu rolled his eyes angrily, but there was nothing he could do about Yan Qi.
Yan Qi curled her lips: "Oh, you are still angry? Are you scared? Haven't I solved the heating problem yet? You are afraid of a chicken bully. You are so cowardly that you are worse than a needle nose."
One word reminded Jiang Dongqu.
Yes, the heating problem has not been solved yet, why should I be anxious?
Besides, the heating problem is a dead end that no one can solve.
What do I have to be afraid of?
Thinking of this, Jiang Dongqu became happy again.
Yan Qi said disdainfully: "Your city is shallower than the bastard in the pond."
"Yan Qi, how dare you be so arrogant!"
Jiang Dongqu screamed: "In half a month, you will be dead. When the time comes, I will throw all your things out of the Ministry of Works. Just wait for that day."
Yan Qi looked indifferent and shrugged: "I hope so."
After saying that, he turned around and left, not in a hurry at all.
Yang Ke looked at Yan Qi's handsome back, squinting his eyes and frowning.
Why is Yan Qi so confident?
Could it be that he has a way to solve the heating problem?
No way.
Make bricks without straw.
There is not even enough coal. It is a drop in the bucket. How can the heating problem be solved?
Yang Ke shook his head, feeling upset. Listening to everyone talking about Yan Qi, his mind was agitated.
He didn't want to hear the word Yan Qi right now.
He slapped the table: "What are you talking about? What are you talking about randomly? Individuals can just do their job. Anyone who dares to talk too much will be punished. Okay, let's adjourn the meeting."
Everyone did not dare to say anything and ran out of the minister's hall.
