Yu Huai leaned back on the chair and said, "I heard that you have been in constant contact with Yan Shenggong in the past few days? It seems that your relationship is quite close."
As he spoke, he looked at Kong Zhenkan in front of him.
Kong Zhenkan's heart trembled when he heard this.
I didn't expect that my behavior these days would be seen by the other party.
"Don't be nervous." Yu Huai waved his hand gently towards him and said immediately, "You are also a member of the Kong family, so I'm not surprised if you have any small actions with your Yan Shenggong."
"No, it's nothing small. I just asked about the situation of some elders from the three clans and the elders from the five clans." Kong Zhenkan explained in a stuttering tone.
Yu Huai said: "I said, I don't take your things seriously. If you really do something that threatens my Tiger Flag, do you think you can still stand here and talk to me?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I don't dare, I don't dare, I don't dare." Kong Zhenkan agreed repeatedly.
In his heart, he was glad that he only had contact with Yan Shenggong and did not agree to what other clan elders asked him to do.
If he really agreed to those clan elders and secretly rescued the elders of the third clan and the fifth clan from prison, I'm afraid he would have to help them out even if they weren't rescued.
Yu Huai put one hand on the table, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said in his mouth: "Next, we will establish a farmers' association and divide the fields. When the time comes, someone will cooperate with you. If you do this well, I will recommend you to stay here." Come down and be a county magistrate."
"Thank you, Deputy Yingzheng. I will definitely cooperate." Joy instantly filled Kong Zhenkan's heart.
The reason why he no longer is the magistrate of Qufu County but still wants to stay in the yamen is so that he can continue to be an official.
Although the county magistrate is not as powerful as the county magistrate, he is content with it. At least he has kept his black gauze hat.
"Okay, you go back first. Someone will be here in the next half day. I will ask them to go directly to you." Yu Huai said to Kong Zhenkan.
He has received news that a group of grassroots officials sent from Henan have arrived in Ziyang and can reach Qufu in half a day at most.
Most of these grassroots officials are at the level of town mayors, and many of them were promoted from the farmers' association.
Once this group of personnel arrives, the foundation of the Tiger Flag in Qufu will soon be solidified.
As for the position of county magistrate that promised Kong Zhenkan, he did not deceive him.
As long as Kong Zhenkan honestly cooperated with the newly arrived officials on land distribution and farmers' association matters, he would recommend Kong Zhenkan to be the county magistrate of Qufu.
Of course, in a situation like Kong Zhenkan's, even if he becomes the county magistrate of Qufu, he will be transferred to study after the situation in Qufu stabilizes, and after passing the exam, he will be sent to other places to serve.
The possibility of staying in Qufu in the end is very small.
At present, Qufu still needs someone like Kong Zhenkan who is familiar with the situation to stay and participate in the transformation and governance of Qufu by the Tiger Character Banner.
Kong Zhenkan, who walked out of the house, looked back at the closed door.
I knew in my heart that if I wanted to be the county magistrate, I had to take the lead in dividing the Kong family's fields.
Moreover, he had been studying the Hu Zi Banner's land allocation system a lot in the past few days, and he knew very well that the farmers' association and land allocation policies implemented by the Tiger Zi Banner in other places were mainly aimed at Laohe Yansheng of the Kong clan. Such a person.
Once he helps Huzi Banner establish a farmers' association in Qufu to divide the fields, he will completely offend the Kong family leaders headed by Yan Shenggong.
Even though people like Yan Shenggong promised well and agreed to the Tiger Character Flag's land allocation in Qufu, he knew that these people secretly made some small moves to prevent the land allocation.
It's a pity that these people still can't see clearly. The Tiger Character Banner doesn't take the Kong family, a descendant of the saint, too seriously at all, and no one can stop the farmers' association and the land distribution.
It can be said that whoever blocks it is the enemy of the Tiger Flag. The dead elders of the three tribes and the elders of the five tribes are the best examples.
The Kong family is finished, or the old people in power of the Kong family are about to be finished. He is willing to come to the Tiger Flag to serve as an official, but he does not want to sink with the old ships of the Kong family and those in power.
"Mr. Kong, are you going to see Deputy Yingzheng Yu?"
Just as Kong Zhenkan was about to leave, a government servant came over from outside.
Kong Zhenkan turned around and saw the Yamen officer walking over, and said, "No, I'm just about to leave. Are you going to see Deputy Yingzheng Yu?"
Since he was no longer the magistrate of Qufu County, but was still working in the yamen, the people on duty in the yamen changed their names for him. They used to call him Mr. Kong whenever they met, but now they all call him Mr. Kong.
"The second master is here. The younger one is here to report." The yamen servant explained the purpose of his arrival.
Upon hearing the title Second Master, Kong Zhenkan immediately thought of the second clan elder of the Kong family.
He knew that the other party was probably frightened by the deaths of the elders from the three clans and the elders from the fifth clan, and would probably come over to surrender.
"Mr. Kong, please go and do your work. The younger one has to go in to report." The yamen servant said politely to Kong Zhenkan.
"Go!"
Kong Zhenkan took a step to one side and gave up his position.
The yamen officer walked past him.
Kong Zhenkan looked at the direction in which the government servant was coming, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to take another route, not wanting to meet the elders of the Kong family.
After the yamen officials reported the matter, they quickly brought the elders of the Kong family to Houya.
"General Yu."
The eldest of the two Kong clan entered the room and saw Yu Huai sitting on the seat with the old god there. A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, but he still took the lead to say hello.
"It's rare for the second tribe to come to my place." Yu Huai said, then raised his hand and said, "The second tribe is old, please take a seat!"
The two elders of the Kong clan bowed their hands again, walked to the empty seat next to them and sat down.
Yu Huai leaned forward from his seat, rested his elbows on the table, and said, "The old man from the second clan suddenly came to visit. I think there is something wrong!"
Because of the things Kong's clan elders had done, he didn't have the slightest fondness for these people. He was too lazy to make excuses with them and directly asked them about the purpose of their arrival.
cough!
The elder of the Kong clan coughed slightly.
Even though he knew that people with the tiger character flag were more straightforward in what they said and did, so many years of habits still made him a little uncomfortable.
Yu Huai heard the sound of coughing and added: "If you are feeling unwell, why don't you go home and see a doctor? Don't let a minor illness turn into a serious one and it will be too late to cure it."
Hearing this, the elders of the Kong clan looked ugly.
The words that cursed him sounded very uncomfortable. Even if he was a little older, he still wanted to live a few more years.
"It's okay, my throat is a little uncomfortable. It's better after a cough." The elder of the Kong clan suppressed the discomfort in his heart and explained to Yu Huai with a smile.
He clearly knew that his identity as the elder of the Kong clan was of no use in front of Yu Huai.
Yu Huai said with a smile on his face: "It doesn't matter. If your throat feels uncomfortable, you can cough a few more times. I don't mind."
】
"It might be better if we can have some tea." The elder of the Kong clan felt his heart ached at Yu Huai's rebuke, and wanted to ask Yu Huai for a cup of hot tea.
