"In extraordinary times, you can only use radical methods. Master You, do you want to catch up?"
You Rongzhi naturally thought about it, thinking about it terribly.
"If you do it according to my method, you will be able to catch up with the backward progress, and you will definitely be able to get the money back in four months. If it doesn't work, I will go to the king to apologize." He Lingchuan vowed, and then changed the topic, "Otherwise, this project will be ruined.
If I can’t do it, I’m going to resign now.”
This big job has started, and it has been announced to the whole country, that is, there is no turning back. He Lingchuan can run away as a consultant, but You Rongzhi cannot run away as the coach.
When the three "musts" came out, You Rongzhi could only ask him:
"When will the meeting begin?"
"No time waits for me, let's do it tonight."
The sun is setting in the west.
"Now?" You Rongzhi stood up immediately, "Wait until I enter the palace."
He had to ask King Yao for instructions.
He stayed in the palace for more than an hour.
At midnight that night, everyone was suddenly called to discuss the expansion of Tianshui City.
God was pouring rain again. Officials of all sizes gathered together in the rain, and their official uniforms were all wet. Some smelled of alcohol, while others looked sleepy and yawned.
"Master You, what happened?" Except for wars and natural disasters, officials rarely hold meetings overnight.
You Rongzhi looked at them, sighed secretly, and said seriously: "I just came out of the palace. Your Majesty is very dissatisfied with the progress of the capital's eastward expansion."
Huang Shilu, the son-in-law of the Gu family, immediately said: "The expansion of the capital to the east is of great benefit, and the king is right in his criticism. However, the project is huge and hundreds of items are difficult to adjust. There are indeed difficulties on site. For example, Mr. Xu has been supervising the materials and has been unable to get them for five days."
Master You, you haven’t slept for two days, right?”
All the officials said one after another: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. You!"
"The construction is indeed a bit slow. We must work harder to share the worries of Your Majesty and Master You."
"It's very true, we will strictly control the progress from tomorrow on."
"..."
You Rongzhi knew very well what these men were saying and what they were thinking. He turned to look at He Lingchuan: "Master He, come on."
He Lingchuan originally watched with cold eyes and said nothing, but when he heard the sound, he grabbed a thick booklet and threw it on the table.
There was a "bang" sound, startling everyone.
"Qi Shuhuan, you are responsible for the demolition of the old house in Pantu Valley and the transportation of stones. It should have been completed three days ago, but so far only 50 cubic meters of stone have been transported, and even 10% of the task requirements have not been met."
The stage is set up, he will do the blackface.
Qi Shuhuan didn't expect that he would be called out, so he made a sound and defended: "This, this is because it has been raining for days, the village roads are wet, and the stone trucks will get stuck in the mud..."
"It's all rocky ground. The real dirt road is only less than five feet long. It can be transported with stone slabs." He Lingchuan said lightly, "In the past seven days, you have been at the site for a total of five hours. In the wine shop in the city,
The Teahouse and Red House are four times as long.”
Not to mention that Qi Shuhuan was stunned, other officials also looked surprised and felt a little cold.
He Xiao also followed their personal whereabouts?
Yes, the king sent him a guard team of more than 900 people. He now has plenty of manpower.
Just as Qi Shuhuan was about to speak, He Lingchuan moved his chin to the door and said, "You are incompetent, so you don't have to do it anymore. Let's go."
His tone was unquestionable, and Qi Shuhuan was shocked: "What, I, I was... Master You! What's going on!"
The person surnamed He is just a council governor. He has no real power and only talks. What right does he have to tell him to get out?
He Xiao was so direct, You Rongzhi also felt a headache, but since he was already being held here, he could only cough: "My king has approved the personnel changes tonight."
Qi Shuhuan said with a bitter face: "Master You, Your Majesty..."
He Lingchuan interrupted him and pointed towards the door: "Go quickly."
Qi Shuhuan hurriedly said: "If I know my mistake, I will work diligently in the future and never dare to be lazy again..."
He Lingchuan remained unmoved and showed his ruthlessness: "Pleading for mercy is useless, don't waste your time."
Qi Shuhuan looked at him and then at You Rongzhi, then he knew it was irreversible, so he had to turn around and leave.
The Qi family spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to get a position in the eastward expansion project of the capital. He only stayed for seven days before he was kicked out. When his brother heard about it, he would definitely scold him until he was furious!
He Lingchuan didn't even look at him. He flipped through the book on the table and read out seven or eight more names. They were all incompetent, derelict in their duties, and one of them had even begun to accept bribes.
Needless to say, everyone just leaves.
He Lingchuan refused to listen to the reason and just told people to get lost. The bribe collector was so angry that he pointed at his nose and cursed: "You, surnamed He, are just a council governor. What qualifications do you have to boss us around?"
Officialdom is about order and hierarchy. This guy doesn't even have a title, so he dares to point fingers here?
After he said this, everyone was not looking at He Lingchuan, but at You Rongzhi.
The head coach of the project is here, and You Rongzhi is the one who has the final say.
Under the gaze of everyone, You Rongzhi coughed lightly: "Previously, Master He and I were summoned by the king together, and then we came here together."
The emphasis is on "together".
What does it mean?
He Lingchuan's actions were approved by the king.
Entering the palace first, King Yao was also very surprised when he heard He Lingchuan's request.
This guy is here to demand power.
But on the other hand, King Yao knows best the ethos of Yaoting and the common virtues of officials. Since He Xiao boasts that Haikou can turn the situation around and build the city efficiently, what's the harm in giving it a try?
After all, he has no official title and no money, so are you afraid that he will turn the world upside down?
You Rongzhi added: "The master of the island has just received the honorary award, the third-class pear fragrance silver medal."
Everyone was shocked.
The Pear Fragrance Medal is a medal awarded to foreigners by the Yao Kingdom. There are five levels in total, and each level is divided into three levels. It seems that He Xiao only got the third level. In fact, the first level is awarded to foreign monarchs and leaders of foreign forces, and the fourth level is awarded to foreigners.
The first class is for Bingmu, and the fifth class is for industry and commerce.
As a foreign businessman, He Xiao was able to receive the third-class Pear Fragrance Medal, which shows that King Yao highly recognized him.
It just so happened that the award was given tonight, just to give him a halo and support.
So He Lingchuan was very tough now. He snapped his fingers on the spot and pointed at the official who was collecting bribes: "Come here, take him away!"
This guy was taken away directly by the palace messenger sent by Tingwei.
After this show of power, the atmosphere in the meeting hall changed. The sleepiness on everyone's faces disappeared, and they were so solemn that they were almost dripping with water.
Is the king serious?
He Lingchuan then read out another name, which was Mr. Xu mentioned earlier.
Mr. Xu's expression changed. In the past seven days, he spent five days at the construction site without even returning home. Isn't the other party still dissatisfied?
He also had a bit of a temper, and was about to get angry when he heard You Rongzhi laugh and say: "Master Xu, who spends all his time forgetting to eat and sleep, and is diligent and hard-working, can you do anything for us?"
Set an example. The king decreed that he should be promoted to the position of deputy governor."
