"You have to know that although Ji Gang has no right to make you vacant, he can transfer you at will, just like transferring your third brother to the elephant training center. No matter how hard you and I try, we can't transfer you back."
"Although Ji Gang can't directly blame you, as long as he gives you a "good word" in front of the emperor, what do you think the result will be? Are you familiar with the emperor, or is Ji Gang familiar with the emperor? If you are familiar with the emperor, Then you are Kingo Jingo, not Ji Gang, so people must know how to keep a low profile and know how to deal with the world. You must know that when you are under a low eaves, how dare you not bow your head? If you are not afraid of officials, you are afraid of being in charge!"
"Ji Gang said that the three of us formed a clique for selfish gain. You see, there is no need to accuse him. Now, we can't fight him! Be patient with everything, second brother!"
Lying in bed that night, Zhang Bi's words kept echoing in Lin Linyou's mind.
He told him to endure it, but how could he endure it?
Before I traveled back in time, I could tolerate being a loser for a few thousand dollars just to make a living in the workplace. Now that I have traveled through time, you still ask me to tolerate it? Doesn’t this disgrace thousands of time travellers? I am alone, there is nothing to be afraid of!
I can't bear it!
However, this seems to be too selfish. It doesn't matter if it affects Zhang Bi. Zhang Bi does not belong to this world. Even if he dies, it will be treated as if he has never been here. If it hurts my little sister and the others...
It seems that I still care about something and am afraid...
So, early the next morning, Lin Linyou honestly went to the Zhonghou Qianhu Office to draw his eyebrows in front of Wang Qian.
When Wang Qian saw Lin Linyou, he had a kind smile on his face: "Lin Baihu, we are so gratified and congratulated to have you as a general in our center and back office! Everyone in the Jinyi Guard praises you highly! "
"Qianhu, sir, that's a great reward! I'm ashamed to be a lower-ranking official!" Lin Linyou bowed his hands and saluted.
Both parties exchanged a few words of pretense, and Wang Qian stood up, pointed to the west and said: "Over there, your Baihu Hall is located. I will take you to check the room... It doesn't matter much, I will follow you." Just like the Zhongzhong Suo, by the way, I will also take you to meet your commander-in-chief and the others."
The first day seemed uneventful. I flipped through the paperwork and the day went by quickly.
"How's it going, second brother? Did your day go well today?" Zhang Bi asked when he returned to the courtyard in the evening.
Lin Linyou: "The days are still long! It's only the first day, what can we see?"
"It's good that Wang Qian didn't make things difficult for you." Zhang Bi seemed relieved.
Lin Linyou said: "Isn't that what you call making things difficult? Let me draw my breasts on time every day! Ci'ao, this guy actually makes me feel like I haven't been at work for a long time!"
"We need to be high-ranking in the first place!" Zhang Bi said.
"Have you ever seen any leader draw his arms every day?" Lin Linyou asked, "use this to test cadres? Which cadre can withstand such a harsh test?"
Zhang Bi nodded: "That's true. There aren't many people who draw breasts every day, but there are quite a few who draw cakes every day."
…
On the second day, Wang Qian arranged a job for Lin Linyou.
Wang Qian said with a smile: "Lin Baihu, you have been in both the front and middle schools. I'm afraid you are not familiar with our middle and rear schools. It starts from the small teaching ground in the inner city in the south, to Guanyin Mountain in the outer city in the north, and from Yao Fangmen in the east." , to Yuejiang Tower in the west, are the areas behind our middle school, including Zijin Mountain and Houhu. As for you, you have become familiar with them in the past few days. By the way, you can learn about the prices of rice, flour, oil and beans in the shops along the street - this will happen soon. It’s the end of the month! This is very important for the Holy One to understand the harvest and harvest situation during the agricultural year.”
Depend on! Don't make excuses for the emperor. Asking me to check the prices of rice and flour is obviously deliberately belittling me. Lin Linyou was not very happy. This kind of thing could have been done by the captain.
Wang Qian did not see his unhappiness, or he did, pretending not to see it, and continued: "But there is no need to worry. What you have learned about the situation and the price of food at the Zhonghou Institute in the past few days, combined with Just give it to me at the end of the month."
Lin Linyou respectfully agreed: "I'm going to do it today!"
Wang Qian nodded: "That's fine, there's nothing else major to do."
As soon as he turned around and stepped out of Wang Qian's duty room, Wang Qian called out from behind: "Oh, by the way, Lin Baihu, after your shift is over, remember to come to my Huamao. We have strict laws and regulations in our middle and rear office. Maybe you just Come on, I’m not used to it yet, haha!”
Lin Linyou originally planned to go for a walk on the street and then go home and take a nap! Unexpectedly, Wang Qian seemed to have read through his mind and took such a trick.
It seems that Wang Qian is strict with the law, but everyone who knows him knows that he is just a strict disciplinarian.
"Yes!" Even though Lin Linyou was unhappy, he still turned around and respectfully handed over his hands, "Get used to it. There is nothing unaccustomed to it. It's the same in Zhongzhong Institute."
"Go!" Wang Qian waved.
Since there were no familiar subordinates in the Zhonghou Institute, Lin Linyou wandered the streets alone with a knife in hand. He did his duty and asked about the prices of rice, flour, grains and oils in front of each shop, and wrote down the details in the impermanence book. Then I went to Jiaofangsi to listen to music...
A few days later, Wang Qian called Lin Linyou to him again: "Lin Baihu, how is the progress in the past few days?"
"Back to Qianhu, I recorded everything here." Lin Linyou presented the book of impermanence with both hands.
Wang Qian turned over it briefly, looked at it a few times, and then said "tsk". Every time he said "tsk", Lin Linyou's heart tightened, not because he was afraid of Wang Qian, but because he felt uncomfortable. His "tsk" sounded like It means to despise and ridicule oneself in every possible way.
After Wang Qian clicked his tongue a few times, he threw the book of impermanence back to him: "I remember it in detail, but it's just a matter of detail. If you write like this, is it possible that the emperor will have to settle the accounts himself? What's more, the handwriting is so sloppy and ugly. There are even typos! This is disrespectful to the Holy One!"
"I'm a martial artist. It's pretty good if I can write like this." Lin Linyou was stunned and argued, "If I want to submit it to the emperor, I can just go down and write an inscription. Besides, Qianhu said last time, Don’t you want it at the end of the month?”
"What do you mean, you can just show me the scrawled and disrespectful words?" Wang Qian said sternly.
"This is not what I meant by the official." Lin Linyou held back his anger.
Wang Qian suddenly softened his tone and said: "Lin Baihu, your time in Jinyiwei is not short. Do you need someone to teach you how to do things? I am talking to you today, just talking. If If King King or the Emperor comes to talk to you, I'm afraid you won't be able to find a place in Jinyiwei! Logically speaking, I should fine you a salary, but I also know that you still have your sister to take care of, and it will be difficult for you to live in peace for a long time. With this salary, I won’t punish you this time. If you can sit in the position of 100 households, you should be more encouraged in the future! Our Zhonghou Institute is not like other guards. I have always been strict in law and discipline! You also know , Nan Sike has been keeping a close eye on him recently. For the sake of the defense, I don’t want to ruin a pot of porridge with a mouse dropping. Of course, I’m not talking about you."
Hearing this seemingly familiar rhetoric, Lin Linyou suddenly felt enlightened: Damn! I'm familiar with this! Isn’t this just workplace pua? Unexpectedly, the ancients understood this trick.
First, he suppresses and denies you, making you feel worthless, and then identifies with him and the values he instills in you, thus forcing you to obey his authority and accept his humiliation...
But, I'm sorry, this trick is of no use to me, Lin Linyou.
Wang Qian said earnestly: "Li Qianhu, after all, you were once your Shangguan. Zhang Bi is a Qianhu, and Li Chun is also a Qianhu. No matter what grudges they have, you, a Qianhu, should not get involved. Zhang Bi is your eldest brother, isn't Li Chun your eldest brother? Don't believe the things that are missing from the outside, maybe who wants to alienate the brotherhood of our Jinyiwei? Don't let others take advantage of you! Let's do this, I Here, let me change you to a lighter job..."
"I think this job is quite suitable now." Lin Linyou said, "Is there anything easier than this? Of course, I don't mean that I like easy jobs."
Wang Qian laughed again: "There is more."
"What job?"
Then, Lin Linyou was transferred by Wang Qian to the horse pasture two to three miles north of the Yangtze River from the official road...
As early as the 24th year of Hongwu, Taizu ordered Jin Yiwei to purchase this horse pasture to provide fodder for the horse army in the capital. But now, civilian households with military registration are here to herd horses. Although it is still It is directly under the control of Jinyiwei, but there is no mention of letting a hundred-household official go to the pasture to herd horses in person...
Do you think of me as Bi Mawen?
Lin Linyou: "Wang Qian, I'm your uncle!"
