Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Ge Tong said angrily, "Kneel down!"

The black-faced man ignored Ge Tong, turned around and left.

Ge Tong was furious, he pulled Zhao Wushang up and said, "I'm an official, so it's unreasonable for him not to kneel down to me."

Like coaxing a child, Zhao Wushang followed Ge Tong's words: "Master is an official, or a high official..."

"I'm an official, I'm an official!" Ge Tong couldn't help but push his apprentice away and ran into the camp. At this time, it was obvious that Ge Tong had become hysterical, and he jumped more than two feet high like a monkey. , clapping his hands and laughing loudly: "I'm an official, I'm an official, you hurry up, come out to meet my official, and offenders will be shot to death!"

Everyone felt inexplicably strange, and their eyes widened.Secretly thinking: "What the hell is going on?"

Chen Ying looked as usual.

Zhao Boying's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "It's really mud that can't support the wall!"

Do not suffer from scarcity but inequality, and do not suffer from poverty but anxiety.This is the bad root of the Chinese people. The poor become rich or the status suddenly rises, which is very hated.In particular, Ge Tong was originally just a craftsman raised by the Zhao family, and was suddenly promoted by Chen Ying to be the deputy capital supervisor of the battalion. Not to mention ordinary people, even Zhao Boying felt sour in his heart.Zhao Boying's youngest son has only now been appointed as the soldier Cao Sili.It can be considered barely entered.

But Ge Tong ascended to the sky in one step, and he came up from the sixth rank general as the deputy capital supervisor of the battalion.Although the deputy governor of the battalion is just a craftsman, for these ordinary people, it is also a great joy to honor their ancestors.

Xu Caifu was very envious of Ge Tong's luck in his heart, but when he saw Ge Tong's appearance, he sighed leisurely, and said to his son Xu Yiming beside him: "You see, this is fate. Fate sometimes, don't force it, there is no time in fate." , After all, nothing. Even if there is an official, there is no such thing as an official."

Xu Yiming nodded in agreement and said: "My lord father's words are very true. My son studied hard in Han Chuang for ten years, and only then did he get a warehouse official, but he is only a small official from the eighth rank!"

"It's not bad for a small official!" Xu Caifu turned to Ge Tongdao, who had disheveled hair like a lunatic, "General Chen, now Fang Ruoguan, is the General Zuo Wuwei who has been lowered from the third rank. Comparable to Huo Qubing of the former Han Dynasty. General Chen Ying's face does not look like a person who died young, and his future will be immeasurable. You follow General Chen and work hard, and you can have a good family background in the future."

Although Yang Guang invented the imperial examination system, it was due to the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty.The imperial examination system was actually only symbolic in the Sui Dynasty, because Yang Guang only admitted twelve Jinshi.In this era, the prosecution system is the main way to obtain family background.In fact, if Chen Ying hadn't been recommended by Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang and Prince Li Jiancheng, it would have been impossible for him to enjoy such an official career.

Xu Yiming nodded.

Xu Caifu pointed to Ge Tongtong with disheveled hair: "Look, just like him, he was born with a hard life, but he became insane when he gained power, why bother?"

Unbearable expression appeared on Xu Yiming's face, he sighed and said, "What a pity!"

At this time, the soldiers and civilians in Shuozhou Daying basically knew that Ge Tong had built a new type of trebuchet and was appreciated by Chen Ying.

Zhao Boying shouted angrily to the Zhao disciples beside him: "What are you doing standing there? Don't you feel ashamed enough? Arrest Ge Tong and lock him up in the cowshed!"

As he spoke, Zhao Boying knelt down and kowtowed to Chen Ying, saying, "I made the general laugh!"

Chen Yingdao: "No problem!"

In fact, Chen Ying is very clear.After more than 5000 years of official-based development in China, all people have been invaded by the idea of ​​official-based, and the highest goal is to be an official.To make a digression, Lao Cheng also applied for civil servants back then. Although civil servants are not officials, the competition is still very fierce.There were 11 positions admitted that year, and more than 500 people applied for the exam, which is equivalent to more than [-] people competing for one position.Lao Cheng failed the exam back then, and he got out of the pit after being frustrated for a while.

As a craftsman, there is almost no chance of getting ahead.They have been craftsmen from generation to generation. Although it is said that among the four peoples of scholars, farmers, businessmen, and workers, workers are in the third class, but the difference between the third class and the fourth class is not big, and they have no political status and power.It is indeed Chen Ying's lack of consideration to suddenly let Ge Tong be the general and deputy capital supervisor.

Ge Tong's inner endurance was too poor, and he became hysterical just like Fan Jinzhongju.

Seeing Ge Tong being escorted out by several descendants of the Zhao family, Chen Ying asked Zhao Boying with a smile, "Is there anyone that Ge Tong is usually afraid of?"

Zhao Boying didn't understand what Chen Ying meant, but he said seriously: "This Fan Tong is usually most afraid of his father, but his father has been dead for three years!"

Chen Yingdao: "He was so happy, a mouthful of phlegm welled up in his heart, and lost his mind, just find a vicious person, slap him, scare him, and he will be fine when he spits out this mouthful of phlegm!"

Zhao Boying believed and doubted, and let a man with a vicious face pass by.The man with a fierce face walked up to Ge Tong, raised his hand and slapped him.His slap was so fierce that he slapped Ge Tong in a circle.

Ge Tong fell into a coma on the ground, and it took him a long time to wake up.

Seeing Ge Tong wake up, Zhao Wushang was overjoyed and said, "Master, you are fine, that's great!"

Ge Tong vaguely remembered that he was appointed as an official by Chen Ying, but he couldn't remember other things.Ge Tong quietly asked Zhao Wushang: "Are you an official for the teacher?"

Zhao Wushang nodded: "General Chen promoted master to be an official, master should also promote me to be an official, don't be too big, just wear official boots!"

After Ge Tong led a group of apprentices, about a dozen people, to thank Chen Ying for his kindness, he led them to build more counterweight trebuchets.

There is a saying that if there is something good at the top, the bottom must follow it.The king of Chu is so thin-waisted that many people starved to death in the palace.Ge Tong was made an official by Chen Ying because of his meritorious service in building the trebuchet, which caused a storm in the Shuozhou camp.In comparison, there is more than one domestic craftsman of the six wealthy families in Shuozhou. Among the more than [-] people, at least thousands of them know some crafts.Most of them are carpenters, blacksmiths, painters, smiths, and locksmiths.

Although Ge Tong made a lot of jokes in the camp, there is no doubt that Ge Tong made a free advertisement for Chen Ying.

As long as you work hard, excellent workers can also become officials.

This made many pretentious craftsmen have such thoughts.

PS: Thank you very much for your monthly pass, and a new chapter will be added at the end of the month.

Chapter 56 Surprising Discovery

Although Chen Ying did not establish a government office, he also had the power to directly appoint officials.However, Chen Ying only has the right to recommend, not directly appoint, the official seal officials above the seventh rank.Zhengyin officials of the seventh rank and above need to be reviewed by the Ministry of Officials, which means that Chen Ying can recommend them, but whether to use or not, the decision-making power does not belong to Chen Ying, but to the Ministry of Officials.

The general manager of Lingzhou didn't have the establishment of the commander of the battalion at all. In the official system structure of the Tang Dynasty court, there was also no official position of the supervisor of the commander of the battalion.This official position is private, and the court will not recognize it.However, the Tang Dynasty court had generals as supervisors, with two supervisors, from the third rank, and two young supervisors, from the fourth rank.He is in charge of civil engineering and craftsmen, and is in charge of the left school, right school, lieutenant colonel, Zhenguan and other departments, and the supervisor of Baigong.

The official appointed by Chen Ying belongs to the prosecutor.It is temporary in nature, as long as it is outside the jurisdiction of Lingzhou General Manager, no one will admit it.The official positions of Zhao Haoxin, Xu Yiming and others belong to the auxiliary official position. This kind of official position is not a seal official, but a ministerial officer. It needs to be recommended by Chen Ying, and the court can report it.

After taking a bath, Ge Tong put on a black soft-footed toe that only officials are qualified to wear, a blue round-neck official robe, and black boots.In fact, the Futou, the official robe, and even the boots that Ge Tong wears are all Xu Jingzong's. Fortunately, the two of them are similar in stature, so they can be worn directly.

At this time, Ge Tong was beaming, his apprentice Zhao Wushang yelled at all the craftsmen for their work, seeing the black-faced man named Wei Meng who had just slapped Ge Tong, he was very upset. taste.

Wei Meng is an excellent blacksmith.He is good at making swords, guns and weapons. When it comes to making iron and steel, Wei Meng can beat Ge Tong by ten streets, but at this time Ge Tong has become an official.

Rather than saying that Wei Meng is jealous of Ge Tong, it is actually better to say that Wei Meng is more envious of Ge Tong.

"A... Father, this is a good opportunity. It is rare to see people like General Chen who value all kinds of crafts!" Wei Meng's son Wei Qiang carried a thing wrapped in black cotton cloth. At first glance, it looks like a shoulder pole, about six feet long and four fingers wide.

Wei Meng remained silent, with a troubled expression on his face, not knowing what was going on in his heart.

"Father?" Wei Qiang said bitterly, "Father, that old man Guo asked me for ten loads of betrothal gifts. You can offer this paddle blade to General Chen. It shouldn't be a problem to exchange ten loads of betrothal gifts, right?"

Wei Meng remained silent.

Wei Qiang said with a bluffing face: "Father, I am your only son, and Guo Hongying will not marry me. If I don't marry a daughter-in-law, you don't want to have a grandson. Our Wei family has lost its incense, so we can only blame it." Blame you!"

"What are you talking about!" Wei Meng said in displeasure, "What's so good about Mr. Guo's daughter, her face is full of pockmarks, I don't know what you like about her!"

Wei Qiang said stubbornly, "I don't care, anyway, it's not Guo Hongying who doesn't want to marry."

Wei Meng pointed at Wei Qiang and said, "It's not that you don't know, your father and I are at odds with Guo Laojia, and Guo Laojia's daughter is not made of gold, so why should he ask for ten loads of gifts? What is Guo Laojia thinking about? Don't you see it yet? He is forcing your father and me to bow down to him. "

"Okay, you don't want to give in, do you?" Wei Qiang said, "I'm going to find the Patriarch right now, and when I attack Yanmen Pass, I'll be a jumping soldier..."

The jumping soldiers are almost death squads. As long as you participate in the jumping soldiers, you are basically close to death.

"Alas...you can't do it!" Wei Meng stretched out his hand to carry the long stick wrapped in black cotton cloth, and walked towards Chen Ying's big tent.Came to Chen Ying's big tent of the Chinese army.

However, when Wei Meng came outside the big tent of the Chinese army, he found all acquaintances.The blacksmith Guo Laojiao who has the most trouble with Wei Meng is a strange work among blacksmiths. He makes iron as hard as possible to make steel as hard as possible. He accidentally found soft iron that is as soft as soup cake, so he is happy. Without getting tired, countless soft irons have been created.If you want soft iron to be useful, you can't even cut vegetables.

However, Guo Laojia still regards his soft iron as a treasure.

It is precisely because of the problem of soft iron that Wei Meng and Guo Laojia often quarrel, otherwise the two of them would have formed a family long ago, and their grandson might be soy sauced.
