Everyone greeted Wu Sheng one after another.
"Master Wu, why are you here?"
Wu Sheng stroked his beard, enjoying the atmosphere of being praised.
He smiled and said: "Master said that life is boring, so if you need me, I will come naturally."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect the master to be so good at it!"
"Hey! That's for sure! The master may have more fun than us in private."
"What new drama has Master Wu produced?"
While everyone was chatting, Huang Shengrong kept his ears open and listened.
Stimulate! It's so fucking exciting, just listening to it makes me want to return to secular life.
"Alas! Lao Qi, why did you come with me if you didn't build a house in the county?"
Suddenly someone asked Lao Qi.
Lao Qi scratched his head helplessly, took out a piece of paper from his arms and put it on the table: "The master asked me to build a house here and said he wanted to build a luxurious brothel."
"The drawings were drawn for me on the way."
As he spoke, he took out the drawings of the brothel from his arms. From the drawings, it can be seen that it is generally in a Western style, with many strange decorations and Roman columns.
Everyone took a breath after reading this.
"Damn it, what the hell is this? It's so ugly!"
"Can this picture be used to build a house? It's a mess."
Lao Qi shook his head vigorously and said with a bitter smile: "No, the cover will definitely collapse according to this picture! I have to change it..."
Xie Xian praised: "Old Qi, your skills are getting better and better. You can even understand such an ugly picture!"
Lao Qi said proudly: "It's nothing. I have painted before. The county government and the theater can only be built if I have not modified them!"
The crowd immediately burst into praise again.
Xie Xian suddenly asked: "Then this master is..."
Everyone's attention was focused on Huang Shengrong again, and Wu Sheng came over upon seeing this.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Huijue..."
............
On the street, Fang Zhengyi and Bai Rui walked slowly, and Bai Rui kept talking about various situations in the city.
Fang Zheng frowned after hearing this.
After Bai Rui finished speaking, Fang Zheng opened his mouth and said, "You guys did a good job. I originally wanted to spend two more days in the city, but now it seems I don't need to."
"I will go to my post early tomorrow morning. Please stay close to me and don't appear in the open. No one will come out to see me again."
Bai Rui wondered: "Master, do you need to be so cautious? We have no enemies here."
Fang Zheng thought for a moment: "It's always a good idea to be cautious when you're new here."
"Besides, I am mainly responsible for Jianjiang's grain affairs this time, and the grain stored in the official warehouse turned out to be moldy. This kind of thing will kill people."
"It's easy for me to explain this to His Majesty."
"But I was so close to killing people outside the city! I can't be careless. Only when the collusion between government and businessmen is found out can I go on a killing spree."
"The situation in the government office is currently unclear. We don't distinguish between friends and foes, so we should keep a low profile."
"Don't be anxious, you will always be useful."
............
Early the next morning, Fang Zheng changed into his official uniform, dressed up carefully, took his official certificate and rode to the government office in a swaggering manner.
When they arrived at the gate of the government office, the receptionist saw that Fang Zhengyi was the new general judge and immediately ran into the public room crawling on his feet.
As soon as he saw Jianjiang Magistrate, he immediately said anxiously: "Master Magistrate! Fang Zhengyi is here!"
Liu Xun raised his head when he heard this: "Oh? Please come in."
After a while, Fang Zhengyi was brought in.
Liu Xun looked at Fang Zhengyi, and Fang Zhengyi also looked at Liu Xun.
This man is young. Although he is wearing official uniform, he gives off a very flamboyant feeling. He wears a huge jade ring on his right thumb.
There are also several big gold rings on his left hand... Zhang Yang! As flamboyant as the legend in Beijing!
Fang Zhengyi didn't think there was anything special about Liu Xun. He was just a dry old man, but his clothes were patched... He seemed a bit like an immortal.
But if you can become the head of a government, there is no fuel-saving lamp.
Before Liu Xun could speak, Fang Zhengyi bowed first and said, "Your Majesty, I am here to take office. I have met Mr. Liu."
Liu Xun showed a smile: "What are you talking about, Mr. Fang? I heard that Mr. Fang was in charge of Zhan Shifu in Beijing, so you're welcome."
Fang Zhengyi became even more humble: "Your Excellency, you have really embarrassed me. Everything in the past is like a passing cloud and cannot be taken seriously. Just call me Xiao Fang!"
Xiao Fang?
Liu Xun's expression froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
This kid... is indeed different from normal people.
"Don't be polite, Mr. Fang. There is no smooth sailing in your official career. You are still so young and you will definitely have a bright future!"
"It's just that I'm a little curious... why do you wear so many rings?"
Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly: "Oh! It's nothing, it's just that it's the first time Xianguan has come to such a far place, and he thought he might not be able to go back."
"I'll sell all my belongings and take them with me. This will be more convenient."
Liu Xun smiled softly: "Master Fang is really incorruptible."
"Master Liu, thank you very much. I wonder...where is the household room? I can go do some work now."
"Every time I have a free day as a lower official, I feel like someone has cut my heart. The imperial court pays me a monthly salary, but I still have nothing to do."
"It's true that we have betrayed the divine grace, my emperor is merciful!"
After saying that, Fang Zheng raised his hands to the sky.
Grass?
Liu Xun suddenly felt old for a moment.
Can a person in his twenties be so shameless? No wonder this boy is thriving in the palace at such a young age!
It's a pity that I am still in the local area and have no chance of getting ahead.
Liu Xun laughed twice: "No rush! No rush, every time a new official takes office, there will be a reception banquet in this house."
"I will take you to familiarize yourself with the environment first, and then I will introduce you to some people at the reception banquet. You can take a walk around the mansion first, and I will find a scribe to accompany you!"
After speaking, he raised his hand and called a scribe.
"Weishan, follow Mr. Fang for a walk."
"Yes, sir!"
Fang Zheng bowed again and again: "In that case, thank you very much, Mr. Liu!"
Looking at Fang Zhengyi's leaving figure, Liu Xun's expression looked a little strange.
This guy is quite polite, but why does he speak so weirdly?
Could it be...that the palace likes this tone?
Fang Zhengyi and scribe Weishan were walking in the government office, introducing them as they walked.
"Sir, this is the Experience Department, and not far ahead is the sixth room. Directly opposite you at the end is the household room."
Fang Zheng opened his mouth and said, "Where is the general judgment before my arrival?"
"Oh, there were two general judges here before you came, but they were all transferred away. I don't know where they went." Wei Shan replied respectfully.
"So...what do you usually eat at the dine-in restaurant in the government office?"
Wei Shan said: "This... the current situation is really difficult, so the food in the dining hall is not very good."
"It's often clear soup with little water. It's good if you have some vegetable leaves. The most common thing is porridge."
Fang Zheng glanced at him from time to time: "Grudge? Is it the same gruel as the soup kitchen?"
Wei Shan hesitated for a moment: "It's probably about the same."
