Zhao Yuqing took a jar of imperial wine, and two official satin left with a smile. Lu Haoshan originally wanted to invite him to attend this celebration banquet, but Zhao Yuqing was extremely stunning. In his words, it was not easy to steal the limelight of his son-in-law.

He had long been satisfied with wine and palace satin.

Lu Haoshan just smiled and had to let him go. Before leaving the house, he suddenly realized that something seemed to be missing. After thinking about it carefully, he finally remembered that the military advisor Li Nian was missing.

When he was just listening to the order, Li Nian was still there, but then there was no one. He was not missing this happy moment. When Lu Haoshan was about to go out, he turned to Li Nian's room.

Li Nian's room was in the side courtyard of the Houya. When Lu Haoshan arrived, Li Nian was unfolding a map and circled it on it. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Why haven't my great military advisor turned away? Now you are the only one in the yamen who are working hard."

When they looked up, it was Lu Haoshan. Li Nian smiled and said lightly: "They were either in a hurry to find a location or to buy a gift for Dongwen. They wanted to use this to please Dongwen, hoping that Dongwen could support them. As long as the students assist Dongwen, this is the best gift."

Li Nian knew very well what Lu Haoshan needed. He relied on his ability rather than flattery. If he had time to eat and drink, he might as well make preparations. He also saw that he had a month to take office, and the delivery of various political affairs, the environment and personnel arrangements of the new job, etc., all of which had to be put on the agenda. These things naturally fell on his head. So as soon as he learned that Lu Haoshan had investigated the Qianhu of Lizhou Weiren, he immediately started to plan related matters.

"This is said well," Lu Haoshan couldn't help but praise: "Mr. Li is here, by the way, I am promoted to a thousand households now. What is the most important thing?"

"Man" Li Nian said simply and firmly.

"people?"

"That's right" Li Nian nodded and said, "For a general, the most important thing is naturally people. Dongweng's promotion to a thousand households is gratifying, but according to convention, he can have up to 30 private soldiers, and Dongweng's private guard has more than 300 people. It is ten times the quota. If it is disbanded, it is difficult to give up. If it is privately supported, it is afraid that someone will say that Dongwen has broken the rules and has his own troops. He cannot do anything, and he cannot advance or retreat, so this matter is the most difficult."

He thought it was something, but it turned out to be this matter. Lu Haoshan immediately smiled and said, "Why did it happen? It turned out to be this matter, which is easy to deal with. The current Ming military system has two characteristics: one is the serious delay in wages. The other is that there are many vacancies, and many garrisons do not even have half of the number of people, so it is not a problem to place this number of people. Taking a step back cannot succeed. Leaving them in Zhaojia Village and saying that they are guards of the Zhao clan is also reasonable, so there is no need to worry about this matter."

Li Nian was stunned for a moment, but nodded quickly and said, "It's still Dongweng who thinks carefully, but the students are overthinking."

"Actually, Mr. Li was thinking too carefully." Lu Haoshan patted Li Nian's shoulder and said, "Okay. Now we have relied on Han Wencheng, and we will make great achievements in the future. Mr. Li, don't think about it now, let's go to the banquet together."

"No, Dongweng" Li Nian said with a smile: "Students are not used to that kind of occasion, so it's better not to go. Dongweng goes, and make a good connection with others. Just plan for Dongweng here."

Seeing Li Nian's resolute look, Lu Haoshan didn't force himself and nodded and left.

Li Nian likes to be low and permanent, which is related to his foot disease. A person with physical defects often looks down upon and cannot withstand a blow may lose confidence and hope in the rolling eyes of others, and spend the rest of his life in a daze. Some people with strong hearts and outstanding abilities will use their actions to win the respect of others, and Li Nian is the latter.

I hired a good military advisor.

When Lu Haoshan arrived at Yingbin Building, Yingbin Building was already crowded, and they were all waiting for Lu Haoshan to appear. When they saw the main owner appear, they rushed up to say hello. The enthusiasm was almost melting people:

Zhang Yunhui brought a gift box to Lu Haoshan in both hands and said, "Celebrating the promotion of lords, this is a little bit of my wish, I hope the lord will accept it with a smile."

"Zhang County Magistrate, what's going on?" Lu Haoshan said with a frown: "I haven't said that I don't promote this. You are the county magistrate, how can you take the lead in violating it?"

These days, those who starve to death and those who are timid and brave, have made great money to kill Li Xiangcai, which gave Lu Haoshan an economic foundation. Unlike other officials, who are eager to plunder money and lose their reputation as soon as they take office, then take down Chen Gui, collect a large amount of money, plan the Centipede Ridge incident, grab more than 20,000 taels of silver, and later get help from the Zhao clan, and even keep a lot of money at hand, so they pay more attention to reputation. Besides, those stores also have a lot of money and look down on that little money. They have never made money from the people or subordinates. Sometimes they receive money, which is usually donated to charity institutions in the county.

Now that I’m leaving, I’m still here to give myself a gift. Is this a slap myself in the face?

Zhang Yunhui smiled and said, "Sir, this is not a gift, but Cheng Yi, which means to celebrate the promotion of the adult. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of having popularity, and Cheng Yi is not afraid of accepting it. This is just a little care from the officials. I hope you don't refuse."

"That's it." Cao Hu also smiled and took out a gift box, and echoed with a smile: "Sir, this is Cheng Yi given to you by the Lord. I wish you a bright future and a limitless future."

When talking about Cheng Yi, Lu Haoshan quickly remembered that there was indeed a routine in ancient times that when Shangguan or boss was promoted to go out for fun, the subordinates and subordinates would give him a wish to spend money on the road and use it to enhance his sex. This is Cheng Yi, which is actually a reason to take the opportunity to make money.

Zhou Dayuan, the official of the House Office, took out a gift box from his arms and said, "Sir, convention is convention. Please accept it, otherwise you will look down on me and make me ashamed."

"Sir, this is a little care of the villain. Please accept it with a smile."

"I wish you a happy and bright future"

"Master, this is what Xiao Lao Weibu means. Please don't dislike him."

"grown ups......."

After Zhang Yunhui, everyone present had one, and everyone gave gifts. In just a while, the gift boxes around Lu Haoshan were piled up like a mountain, and even the fat shopkeeper of Yingbin Building gave one with a smile on his face. Now Yingbin Building is a property of the county government office, and he is also a subordinate when he counts it carefully. There is nothing wrong with him giving gifts.

Is this flattery? It is to express my sincere intentions, and to serve as an official and benefit the whole country. During Lu Haoshan's administration, Jiangyou's political affairs were harmonious and everyone was in trouble. Even if the business was done, it was easier to do a lot. As a small person, Lu Haoshan knew the mentality of the small person and always treated them with preferential treatment. In this way, the whole county was grateful to him.

Looking at the pile of gift boxes around him, Cheng Yi was also given by everyone, Lu Haoshan was also a little moved, but he still smiled and said, "Okay, my wishes, I have received your gifts, but I can't break my rules. Let's do this. In addition to paying for this banquet, Cheng Yi divided the rest into two parts, one to the four major charitable institutions in the county, and the other was used as road repairs and bridge repairs. It can be regarded as taking it from the people, and using it for the people."

The county magistrate was indeed as clear as water. Everyone had this feeling in their hearts. The money was delivered to them, and the reasons were sufficient, but there was still no exception. Two old gentry were moved to tears. In the past, the officials wanted to shave three feet of the ground, and before leaving, they even took Cheng Yi to register in person. If Feng Shao had a short time, he would immediately pull his face down. Think about how long the county magistrate Lu came to Jiangyou, and had never held a birthday party, had not made any money on holidays, and even if he got married, he would confiscate red envelopes. Everyone present was persuaded to donate by Lu Haoshan, but that was for the people of Jiangyou. Every piece of paper was clearly listed, without any confusion.

It's simply the legendary Lu Qingtian.

Everyone praised it again, and soon everyone sat down and started eating the table. Lu Haoshan, Zhang Yunhui, Cao Hu, the sixth house clerk and a veteran gentry sat in the chief, and the rest also entered the table according to the number. The banquet began amid the singing of the fat shopkeeper.

"Sir, I have a happy event to tell you." After sitting down, Zhang Yunhui smiled and said to Lu Haoshan with a low voice.

Lu Haoshan's heart moved and asked, "Has the county magistrate appointed?"

"My lord is indeed very clever, and you can guess it." Zhang Yunhui couldn't hide his joy in his heart and said: "I received it before going out. I, Zhang Yunhui, could still live up to the county magistrate before returning home. I was still a local official in Jiangyou. It was a bit unbelievable. Please rest assured. In the future, the lord will make some decisions and the subordinates dare not resign. When the subordinates take office, it will be the day when the Zhao army becomes the head of the captain."

The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was indeed weird enough. It seemed that nothing was impossible. It had just been transferred here and a new county magistrate was appointed there. Less than an hour apart, as if the officials of the court were specifically serving Jiangyou.

But if you think about it carefully, if you destroy the unspoiled mud, you will definitely report it to the court as soon as possible, and the reward will be distributed for a while. As for Zhang Yunhui's succession, it can be seen that Cheng Tieshan fought for his life. In order to satisfy Lu Haoshan, he was afraid that he would be in a hurry, so he probably used a lot of relationships, ran away a lot of legs, and spent a lot of money. The position of the seventh-rank small county magistrate was not valued, so he successfully approved it. As long as the Duke Huang wasted some time elsewhere, this would lead to a situation of arrival.

"Yes, Pingwu's trip was finally gone in vain." Lu Haoshan suddenly asked, "By the way, has the rebel army's casualties been paid? Is there any news about the chasing of Captain Liu?"

Small things like that are not mentioned in the imperial edict, but are mostly issued in the form of documents. Lu Haoshan is most concerned about this, especially the matter of chasing Jin Zhu. There is no tombstone on his grave yet.

Zhang Yunhui next to him was a little moved: many officials only looked at Cheng Yi, but Lord Lu pretended to be in love. Although the pronunciation was similar, the difference between the two was too big. (To be continued)
