When Miss Noble took Craigie's hand and retreated from the dance floor, Lucien was having a happy conversation with Viscount Noble and others with his exclusive juice.

Seeing Miss Noble walking this way, someone greeted them warmly: "Hey, I mentioned your matter just now."

Miss Noble said with a smile: "Don't talk about my marriage with Craigie again? You have made fun of me many times, please save me some face in front of the lord."

She made a somewhat shy expression, and while complaining half-heartedly, she glanced in the direction of Lucien and her father to confirm that the expressions of the two people were not different, and she knew in her heart that what these people were talking about just now was not a big deal , Ninety-nine percent of the time it is a group of people who can't find a topic and can't stand in the cold, just gossiping here.

"Hahaha, don't worry, don't worry, we never talk nonsense about the marriage of the girl's family." The person who was poked by Miss Noble's complaint could only touch his nose, a little embarrassed to smooth things over for himself, and brought the matter to the past. "Look, it's not uncommon for the Lord Lord and Minister Law and Lawrence to be here. We were curious and asked a few more questions about Craigie's work. I heard that the county government is very busy these days, and many people live directly. It's in the office."

"Yes, the one who borrowed from my manor - I mentioned to you before, the one who worked in the civil construction department - hasn't come back for several days." Standing next to Viscount Noble The young man answered with a nod of his head, and asked Craigie, "Speaking of which, I remember that you are also from the civil construction department? You should know him too, he is not tall with brown hair, the one from the next county."

Craigie suddenly said: "It's that one, his position is a little far away from me, but I talked to him during the meeting, he is a smart and talented gentleman."

As he spoke, he casually told some interesting things he had seen or heard in the county hall.Both Lucien and Lawrence, the leader of his own department, were present. Craigie knew exactly what to say and what not to say. He only talked about trivial things. Others laughed or sighed a few times when they heard it, just to pass the ball Boring hours before the end.

This period of time during the ball is the most boring, especially for these noble manor owners who have known each other for decades, they can neither dance on the dance floor like young people, dance from elegant court dance music From cheerful country tunes, it is not dignified enough for them to dance at their age and identity, it seems that they are old and disrespectful.

But there is really nothing to talk about with a group of people holding wine glasses, especially when the lord also enters the chat room, the only topics that can be talked about are the parents of someone around him.

Before talking about Craigie, they had already talked about the monsters raised by the owner and the flowers grown by the West family. Lucien also heard these old men gossip about which guy the young girl who danced with him liked, but because of poor cultivation talent In the end, it was a tragic story of not being able to fulfill one's wish, and one wave of marriage was urged vaguely.

He's 16 years old, he's already an adult man, and if he doesn't make a marriage, he won't be able to find a good girl.

Lucien admitted that Craigie's work topic was provoked by him to divert these people's excessive attention from his marriage.

His immediate family members in the imperial capital are not in a hurry about this matter, and he is not even in a hurry to make progress with his own dolls, and naturally there is no need to pass the time for this group of full-fledged idlers.

Let’s pay attention to Craigie’s work, Viscount Norbert will be more willing to participate in this topic-Viscount Norbert is quite satisfied with Craigie’s son-in-law, saying that he is a little less capable and glib, but It's not good for his daughter to be too capable as a husband. It will make him worry that his daughter will be bullied and can't sleep at night.

Of course, a trash who is too incompetent to achieve anything is not acceptable. Viscount Noble was originally dissatisfied with Craigie who relied on his daughter for a soft meal, but after Craigie entered the county government, that dissatisfaction disappeared.

"Craigie, tell everyone about what you have done recently." Viscount Norbert said, "Just now Lawrence praised you to me, saying that you are clever and smart, and you are a fast learner. people who do things."

The implication is to ask Craigie to talk about how smart he is and what achievements he has made.

"Minister, I'm really flattered that you praised me so much." Craigie first said this to Lawrence who was standing behind Lucien, and then said, "My recent work is not very worth mentioning. Merit, but since you are interested... I just hope that you will not laugh at me after hearing this."

Craigie said that last sentence from the bottom of his heart.A new official like him is rotated by various departments in the county government. He has been transferred from the Ministry of Law to the Ministry of Civil Construction these days. He does not have to sit and copy laws and records all day long, but to do something that can achieve results. I am willing, work hard and think about the future, he can bear it, that is...

It is really not easy to talk about the work content in front of these noble lords.

Seeing that Craigie was desperately trying to organize his words, Lucien gave him an understanding first, "I remember that he was recently assigned to...the Three Going to the Countryside project?" He turned back to confirm with Lawrence, Lawrence nodded and said: "Yes, the person in charge said that he did a good job, the response from the event site was very good, and he can adapt to emergencies."

The project of Three Going to the Countryside, you can tell from the name that it is the "I have a small idea" series of the lord. He is responsible for making the request and the subordinates are responsible for overcoming all difficulties to complete his request.

Lawrence and the others held several discussions and worked overtime to come up with a preliminary plan before the monthly regular meeting, and wrote it in the work outlook for the next quarter of the spring work summary.

As for the official who was caught in charge of this project, Lawrence found a lucky one from among his subordinates according to the criteria of "currently relatively empty", "good communication skills", and "improper official airs".

Compared with the officials who supported a processing factory by themselves last year, or the officials who are still running relief centers on their own, the officials in charge of the "Three Going to the Countryside" project can be called the lucky ones. Lawrence sent him a few newcomers The officials will help, the task is heavy but the time is not so tight, and the year-end summary can add luster if done well, and there is hope for promotion and salary increase.

"This project is to educate the people, which is a great thing." Lawrence smiled and explained to the nobleman what three trips to the countryside are, "Don't think that asking the villagers to watch plays and listen to stories will delay their work. Those stories are specially made by the lord. Find a good story made up by someone, and see that it can teach the people to obey the rules and know the etiquette, and then tell them to bathe in the holy light, and then receive some herbal medicine packs from the doctor, so as not to be disturbed by the disease—even if it doesn’t take a day or two If you can work hard, it will be of great benefit in the future.”

"Besides, when the weather gets hot, there isn't much work. If we don't find something for them to do, some idlers will come out again to sneak around and do nothing good."

The popular Franco-Prussian drama at the market during the spring hunting season was moved to the countryside, interspersed with common sense of hygiene and health, such as washing hands frequently, ventilating frequently, not drinking raw water and eating raw meat, and the troupe was led by officials in the countryside. At the same time, the apprentice priests of the Church of Light will perform Holy Light spells on sick civilians and distribute herbs with certain healing effects-these herbs are one of the raw materials for recovery potions. Boiling water has little effect, but it is better than nothing.

It really sounds like a good thing that the light shines, but this thing is good everywhere, except that the officials in charge have to walk around the streets with a vaudeville troupe and mix with the civilians in the village all day long , not looking like an official at all, the nobles would frown upon hearing this.

Craigie didn’t feel it when he was working, but when he thought about it now, he started to feel hot on his face, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to make up, trying to describe his work not so down-to-earth, but more technical and in-depth. He intends to highlight his own sacrifice and devotion, and shows that he is mixed with the common people and wholeheartedly develops the "Three Going to the Countryside" project. The scum of the aristocratic spirit.

Perfect logic and impassioned.

To be honest, after Craigie finished speaking, Lucien almost applauded his wonderful speech.

Just looking at Craigie's data, he thought it was an R card, but now it seems...

Probably can be counted as half an SR?
