There were several guards in the duty room outside. Guo Fengyou, whom he had seen before, came up to take a look and took him into the second duty room. There were bookshelves and desks inside. Two writers were busy inside. After passing the third
door, is a room
In the small room, Wu Dacai saw Deputy Commander Pang who was signing documents behind the desk. He immediately put down his crutches and knelt down before the guard could give instructions.
Pang Yu didn't raise his head and said, "Wu Xundao is disabled from fighting for the garrison camp. If you have physical inconvenience, you don't have to kneel down to watch."
"Thank you, thank you, sir."
Guo Fengyou came over to help Wu Dacai, and another guard brought a chair with a backrest. Wu Dacai looked at Guo Fengyou, and after seeing the other person nodded, he carefully sat down, his back still straight, not daring to press against the backrest.
Pang Yu was still reading the paperwork seriously. No one spoke in the room. Wu Dacai felt uncomfortable all over. He didn't even dare to breathe loudly. Although he only sat for a moment, his hands and feet seemed to be frozen, and even the chair surface was frozen.
Butt.
Finally, Pang Yu put away the documents, and the submission paper made a slight rustling sound and lay on the pile of documents beside the table.
Deputy Commander Pang looked over, and Wu Dacai's already straight back straightened again, then bent down again.
"Wu Dacai, of the five generals who were injured this time, two are in the art studio and two are in the martial arts school. Only you got rid of your military status and went to Dunbao. What do you think is the reason?"
Wu Dachai was stunned for a moment, licked his dry lips, and said in a trembling voice, "Little man, I came late because of my leg injury. I am waiting for someone to go to other places." Pang Yu had no expression on his face. He stared at Wu Dachai, "
There are nearly ten thousand people in the camp now, and I have to deal with countless matters every day. If it is all official lies and nonsense, there is a lot on the table. I don’t need to call you to ask questions.
This is my only chance to see you alone. What I want to hear is the truth. Just tell me what is in your heart." Under Pang Yu's gaze, Wu Dacai's face turned pale. He didn't even know that before he came to the door.
Today, he was going to see Deputy Commander Pang. He was unprepared for all this. Pang Yu didn't have time to wait for him to think about it carefully. He gritted his teeth and raised his head and said, "It's because the villain offended the clerk. This time, Pang Yu is going
In order to support Jiangnan, the clerical team was in charge of the placement of disabled generals. Good positions would not be reserved for villains. The martial arts school not only went to two hundred generals, but also to five flag generals.
, even the captain has seven people, and none of these people can recognize two hundred words, so there is no place for the villain, and even the house is not allocated to the villain."
Pang Yu's expression still showed no change, "Then why do you think you offended the clerk?"
"It was because he refuted the clerk in the second division, causing Mr. Hou and other clerks to be reprimanded."
Pang Yu took advantage of Zhang Guowei's sense of superiority and said unhurriedly, "What do you think the second division clerk did wrong?" Wu Dacai swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said bravely, "The clerk still regards Shangguan in his heart.
After becoming a sitting officer, the villain thought that there was only one sitting officer in the garrison, and the clerk was also the clerk of the great man. His elbows could not be turned outward.
It’s just that we should follow Pang Daren’s instructions.”
"I have followed my instructions, but how should I deal with the errands sent by Shangguan?"
"Military law clearly stipulates that it is the bounden duty of officers and soldiers to obey orders, and they should only do what they have been told by Pang Da. Naturally, there will be adults at Shangguan to deal with it."
"Then you mean to let me and Shangguan go toe-to-toe?"
Wu Tat Choi's mouth was dry and speechless for a moment. He pulled his collar involuntarily, "I don't dare. I mean, this is a big deal. Your Excellency has your own ideas and you don't need the clerk to worry about it.
"
Pang Yu squinted at Wu Dacai for a moment, "Then what do you think the clerks are worried about? How do the various departments treat these clerks?" Wu Dacai's heart beat wildly, his fingers kept shaking, he put his hands on the sides of his legs and raised his head and said
, "There are no clerical officers in other towns, but the villain thinks that it is reasonable to set up the clerical officer position for the huge number of people, and the army really needs the clerical officer position.
However, the clerical officers in various ministries may be inactive or do things unfairly. In the eyes of the soldiers and generals, the clerical officers have become the officials who write and count under the chief officer. In the final analysis, the chief clerical officer does not understand what the clerical officer does."
"Then what do you think a clerical officer should do?" "The clerical officer should be fair and spirited in order to serve the public; secondly, he should benefit the army in order to gain a foothold; and thirdly, the clerical officer should know how to use power. Your Excellency, you should appoint a clerical officer.
Let them write and settle accounts for Shangguan. Your Excellency has given the power of clerks. It is not to let them interfere in military affairs randomly, but it is not unnecessary. Otherwise, it will be enough to assign a few clerks to each department. How can they be called clerks? The most important thing is,
It is to let all the lieutenants of the army know that there is only one official in the garrison, that is Pang
grown ups."
Pang Yu sat up slightly, and his tone was obviously gentler, "I want to ask you the last question, have you ever done anything to regret the garrison camp?" Wu Dacai couldn't sit still any longer, and he knelt on the ground with a thud, because
The movement was too big and the knee was very painful. He didn't dare to raise his head for a while. When he lay down, an ant happened to pass by. Wu Tachai didn't want anything to shake in front of his eyes.
Zhang Xia conveniently pressed it with his index finger, and then he didn't dare to move. He kept pressing it like this, with the ant struggling desperately under his finger. Until now, he didn't know that Pang Yu was going to settle an old score with him today.
We still need to reuse him. What we are asking now is whether Pang Daren already knows something. It may be to convict himself or to make other arrangements.
Heavy responsibility. His mind was in a mess. The official was sitting on it. What exactly did he want? The shadows of Jiao Guozhao and Mr. Hou kept changing in front of his eyes. After a moment, Wu Dacai thought in his mind, "Little man"
In the battle at Beixiaguan, I hid a piece of silver by the river, but later I was afraid of military regulations and did not dare to take it. However, the villain did have selfish motives. In the battle at Puzikou, the villain's subordinates
A bed made of lilac wood was transported privately. The villain was afraid of refuting the kindness of his subordinates, so he accepted it in confusion, but he didn't dare to sleep all day, so he chopped it up and used it as firewood..."
While Pang Yu listened, he dipped his brush in ink. Guo Fengyou laid out a piece of paper and pressed it with a paperweight. Pang Yu started writing slowly.
It wasn't until Wu Tachai finished speaking that Pang Yu finished writing the last word. The room was very quiet. Only Ng Tak Choi buried his head and panted, watching the ant's thin legs swaying around.
Pang Yu blew a breath of ink onto the paper and then said, "Get up and report to the barracks tomorrow."
Ng Tak Choi's heart was beating wildly until he was right. He was so excited that he felt so happy that he pressed his fingers hard and crushed the ant he was holding down into a cake.
…
There was a bang on the door, a cane was stuck on the ground, and Wu Tac-choi rushed into the house at a speed that was not inferior to ordinary people.
The woman was mending her trousers, and Ng Tak Choi grabbed his son's clothes and pushed him out of the door, then immediately closed the door.
"What's going on?"
As soon as the woman stood up, she saw Wu Tachai sitting on the ground, his mouth wide open but no sound came out.
"What's wrong with you, boss?" The woman quickly supported Wu Dacai, "Did the military department treat you badly again?"
Wu Tat Choi hugged the woman and finally cried out. Because the door of the room faced the street, the cry was still very low.
The woman said anxiously, "Is the errand of Dunbao gone? If it's gone, it's gone. We still have money. We can go back to our hometown and repair the house. I'll farm the land to support you. They bully people like this, so why don't Pangda people care?"
.”
"Pang Pang is in charge, he is in charge." Wu Dacai had two clear snot flowing out of his nose. He didn't wipe it away. He raised his head and said, "Pang Pang is in charge. I have been promoted, and your man has been promoted."
The woman screamed and sat upright, "What kind of official position does my man have?"
With tears on his face, Ng Tak-choi grinned again, "I'm on the same level as the Vice President, hahaha, the boss is nothing but the general, and the martial arts is nothing."
The woman happily beat Wu Tak Choi several times and said, "How much monthly salary is there?"
"Monthly salary is nothing, you see." Wu Tachai touched his arms a few times and carefully took out a piece of paper.
The woman snatched it away and crinkled the paper. When she unfolded it, she saw that there were only a few words written on it. The woman's eyes lit up, "Bank notes."
Wu Tachai slapped him across the face angrily and screamed, "Woman!" Ng Tak-choi took back the paper and cursed, "What kind of bank note? This is Pang Pang's calligraphy treasure. You can see it's wrinkled by me. How can I frame it in the future?"
As he was talking, Ng Tak-choi didn't notice the snot hanging from his nose. With his move just now, a bunch of snot fell down and fell on the paper again. Ng Tak-choi was so angry that he kicked the woman hard and knocked her out.
.
The woman didn't care at all, and crawled over to the ground again to look at the piece of paper, "Master, what is written on it, how much money it is."
"What are you writing? Your man is a scholar. I will read it to you." Wu Dacai looked down, with an expression of satisfaction and reverence on his face, "If there is no loss, you have to tell the method."
The woman said a little disappointedly, "I don't understand what use this is."
Wu DaCai did not hit anyone this time, because in his opinion, if this woman could understand these words, it would be beyond his expectation, and it would also seriously damage his sense of superiority as a scholar. "What's the use of this, this is Panda personally.
As written, the first sentence is to say that I am generally right, and everything I do is in line with Pangda people’s wishes, so I can be promoted. The second sentence is to talk about methods. Well, methods, I’m afraid.
To say that I didn't say it nicely when I scolded the clerk is probably like this."
Ng Tak Choi pondered for a moment, "Maybe he means suing Crooked Face. Is there anything that Crooked Face can't sue? It's definitely not the case."
The woman looked at it confusedly, "How much is the monthly salary?"
Wu Tac Choi stretched out a hand, and then slowly opened his fingers one by one. The woman's eyes opened wider with each opening. After all five fingers were spread, Wu Tac Choi added another hand, and finally stopped at six
A finger.
"Six taels!" The woman hugged Wu Tac Choi and laughed, and Ng Tak Choi also laughed together.
After laughing for a while, the woman finally remembered and asked, "What kind of official are you, the head of the house?" "I am the deputy chief clerical officer. Do you understand the deputy chief clerical officer?" Wu Dacai stopped laughing and wiped the snot from his face.
After a while, "Pang Pang said that although I am the deputy, I am in charge of things alone. Some matters do not need to be reported to the surnamed Hou, but directly to me."
He repays."
"The great people must be sensible. As the head of the family, you should serve as an official for the great people. We will not return to our hometown." The woman said with a smile on her face.
"If you don't go back to your hometown, then neither will Laoshi Zidunbao who lives in Qianshan. I also want to tell you a good thing."
"What's a good thing?"
"In the house, Pang Pang gave our family a three-entry courtyard, one inside Jixian Gate and one inside the city wall."
The woman screamed, and the two hugged each other and started crying again. Wu Tat Choi said while crying, "A guard and a writer were sent to me. They will come to help me move tomorrow. I will pay the money for the wife and maid separately. Let's
I’m going to live in a big house.”
The woman held Ng Tak Choi's face and said, "Our family is going to live a good life." Ng Tak Choi looked at the woman with tears on his face, "You have suffered a lot these years. When you are in trouble, you are the only one who can rely on me. I will live a steady life with you from now on.
I won’t hide anything from you anymore. I found the silver from Beixiaguan and will give it to you when I come back.
I gave some to Mr. Hou and left some for concubines. I used to think about taking concubines and find a house and a few more, but it’s not that I don’t have money and a house, so I won’t think about it in the future..."
The woman shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I don't care. Tell me everything else, and we will all be fine in the future." I searched for some broken silver at Puzikou, broke the tip of the knife, and hid the broken silver.
In the scabbard, those suppressing soldiers usually did not search for officers. When they came back, they invited the deputy commander of the Second Division to visit the brothel. He said that he would definitely promote me in the future.
It cost seven taels of silver." Wu Dacai said as he came over.
The woman said softly, "Don't worry about it... Oh, what are you doing? Who does this in broad daylight and is overheard... Oh."
…
Early the next morning, Wu Tat-choi opened the door angrily.
A woman yelled from inside, "Wu Tachai, let me tell you, if you dare to hide the money again, I will fight you tooth and nail and even want to take concubines to make you beautiful. Look at how little money I have at home."
"That's all in the past. You brought it up early in the morning and made a fuss! You said you didn't care about it yesterday!"
The woman with disheveled hair chased her to the door, "You hid the money and didn't tell me, and you had the nerve to let me ignore it. It's money and not other items. Whatever food is used in this family, your son will not get a wife in the future."
"
Wu Tat Choi turned his head angrily, but was pulled back by the woman. He looked at his son who was still sleeping over there, and lowered his voice angrily, "Who has more money than you?" The woman glared, went over and closed the door.
"What's the use of giving money to that man? What's the use of giving it to that woman? You're so generous to other people's families. It's only at the expense of my family. I haven't been able to buy groceries all these years.
Pick up the leftovers, you have the nerve to send money everywhere, and if you have money, you not only hide it, but you take it to the brothel for seven taels, seven taels, you know how long you have to save it, you young lady has a lot of money, you tell me."
"If I didn't tell you, you still don't know, and you still live the same life!"
"You haven't said anything yet, but you still want to take a concubine because you are so beautiful." The woman pulled Wu Tac Choi hard and cursed, "Today I have to make it clear. From now on, I will only be in charge of the money. If you don't hide it from me, I will fight with you."
.”
Wu Tachai pushed him away and hurried out before the woman caught up with him. The woman only chased him to the door and cursed at his back, "Ng Tak-choi, if you don't explain this matter clearly, I will never be done with you." Ng Tak-choi walked away angrily.
He stopped to rest when he arrived at Songyang Gate. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He murmured, "I shouldn't have said it. I really shouldn't have said it. I'm careless. Well, well, Pang Daren is right. To talk about methods, you must be careful."
