[Wuxia] On System Traversal Errors

Lin Ziqing has been busy dealing with the entertainments of major merchants or officials in Chang'an City these days, and has almost reversed the previous norm of not leaving the gate and not going out of the door. He has to go back and forth in Chang'an City every few days.

On this day, Lin Ziqing sent the groom of Lin's mansion to the mansion of Mu Ziyu, Minister of the Household Department.

Mu Ziyu is the Minister of the Household Department. Half of the silver in the imperial treasury is paid out from the Household Department. He controls half of the court's financial expenditure.Mu Ziyu is already a half-century old man who is nearly fifty years old, and one of the elders of the two dynasties who took office during the first emperor's time.Mu Ziyu has a long gray beard and is a little chubby. When he smiles, his eyes are habitually narrowed into two slits. He looks like a kind and generous elder, but...Mu Ziyu's eyes sometimes flicker The passing light always reminded Lin Ziqing that he was not only an old man, but also an old fox who had a long history, was good at judging the situation, and was scheming.

The last time when Lin Ziqing visited Mu's Mansion, Lin Ziqing successfully knocked 10 taels of silver from Mu Ziyu's hands.When Mu Ziyu saw Lin's carriage recently, he told the driver to take a detour as much as possible. As soon as Mu Ziyu saw Lin Ziqing, he thought of his 10 taels IOU, and felt a pain in his heart. If he knew at that time, Lin Ziqing If the borrowing of silver is to fill the bottomless pit of disaster relief, Mu Ziyu might not agree to Lin Ziqing's penny. The more I think about it, the more my flesh hurts.

Now when Mu Ziyu sees this new champion, Lin Hanlin will have a headache, thinking that he should go around him recently, it is best not to run into Lin Hanlin who is now in a mess of disaster relief.

Disaster relief has always been a bottomless pit, not only to be responsible for the food and clothing of the victims, but also to prevent the sudden outbreak of the epidemic, and this situation... Before the imperial court ordered refugees to be sent to various counties and counties to recuperate, usually To last for a short period of time.Although Mu Ziyu didn't know whether Lin Hanlin was young and energetic, or if he was so confident that he accepted this terrible job from the emperor, but this did not prevent Mu Ziyu from having a little opinion of Lin Ziqing through this matter.

——After all, he was still a young man, after all, he was too naive.

On this day, when Mu Ziyu returned to the mansion, he saw a very leisurely looking scholar who was drinking tea waiting in the mansion. Lin Ziqing said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, but Lin Hanlin's demeanor is even better than before. Come to think of it... how come Lin Hanlin is free to come and sit at my house these days?"

Regardless of what Mu Ziyu thought in his heart, on the surface he had the appearance of a close and kind elder who didn't show any clues.After all, Lin Ziqing had already paid a visit in person, so the superficial etiquette still needs to be in place.

Lin Ziqing took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom and put them on the table, paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "I bothered Mr. Mu to loose some silver a few days ago..." Pushing it away, he pushed the banknotes out of front of his face. One end of the table pushed to the other.

Mu Ziyu was suspicious, probably because he never thought of Lin Hanlin's good method. In a few days, he got his 10 taels of silver notes. With a slight movement of his eyes, he smiled and put the table Putting the banknotes on the bag into his arms, he said, "Lin Hanlin made a good move this time."

Lin Ziqing took a sip slowly while holding the tea bowl, and then said unhurriedly, "I have accepted the sea order from the Holy Majesty."

Mu Ziyu stretched out his hand to stroke his gray beard, narrowed his eyes, and after a while, he already connected the two things together... A few days ago, he had already heard the rumor that Lin Hanlin recently met with some business owners Walking very close, there was a sense of collusion between the government and the businessman, and he thought that Lin Ziqing must have stolen a lot of money in it... But, he never thought...

This method is really excellent, and it is really a coincidence.Coincidentally, at the time when disaster relief was imperative, the imperial court implemented the sea order, and coincidentally took over these two things... one is very lucrative, and the official in charge of the other is very difficult... No, this No coincidence.Mu Ziyu thought to himself, Lin Hanlin might have expected such a result before, the money for disaster relief was insufficient, and he could just use the oil and water blown out of the sea order to fill the gap.

This method is quite biased. Since ancient times, there have been very few officials who were not greedy. However, officials like Lin Ziqing who are as greedy as they are open and honest are really rare.And...to get the right way.

Mu Ziyu tapped the corner of the wooden table in front of him slowly with his fingers, and sighed, "You are not afraid of damaging your own reputation with this method?" In the end, I still feel somewhat comfortable about the previous debts.Feeling at ease in my heart, it is rare that I kindly want to mention this junior who has just entered the officialdom.

Mu Ziyu secretly squeezed the stack of banknotes that he carried in his bosom, plus the half month's interest, the total is 110 taels of silver. With experience in dealing with money, Mu Ziyu can also be sure that this amount is roughly correct.

Xindao,

——This junior who has just entered the officialdom can also be a man.

Lin Ziqing brought the tea bowl to his lips, took a sip slowly, and put it on the table again. A dark color seemed to flash across his face, and he said in a deep voice, "The process of the silver sent by the imperial court Too much, too much time-consuming, half a month ago was imminent, and the disaster relief could not be postponed. In desperation... I had no choice but to follow this sideways method."

When the money from the imperial court comes down, it must first be approved by the emperor, and then it will be sent to the cabinet.The household department accumulates more than a hundred official documents every day, and it may have been ten days since the money was approved. Besides, even if he has been appreciated by the emperor, he is now just a small Hanlin scholar. The right to direct distribution.And this whole ten days...

——Lin Ziqing could afford to wait for these ten days, but the refugees from Wenzhou couldn't wait.

The disaster relief stall outside the ten-mile slope must be built as soon as possible, as well as the thatched house that provides shelter. The workers in the commercial firm will not start work unless they are paid, and they must first pay half of their wages.

Mu Ziyu looked at the scholar in Tsing Yi who sat in front of him with a straight back, and sighed softly, his eyes seemed to flash a bit of complexity, and said, "Although most of the officials in the court are greedy, But most of them are sanctimonious people who cherish their feathers, and they are really not like you young man..."

——Regarding fame as much as dung.

Lin Ziqing said with a smile, "No matter how good the reputation is, it can't compare to doing more practical things to benefit the people. I just ask for... a clear conscience."

Mu Ziyu was stunned for a moment, then sighed slightly, "I only hope that you will always remember what you said now in this officialdom."

Lin Ziqing asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Mu thinks I'm not capable of doing this?"

Mu Ziyu paused for a moment, then said, "I just think...it's not easy enough to be a clean official in this officialdom."

Lin Ziqing also smiled and said, "Indeed."

……

After leaving the Mu Mansion, Lin Ziqing didn't intend to go back to the mansion, and asked the coachman to drive to the gate of the North City.He showed the official seal to the officers and soldiers at the gate of the city. The officers and soldiers guarding the city opened the gate and then closed it again. ——The gate of the North City has been sealed, and it is not an easy task to get out of the city.

Lin Ziqing drove to Shilipo.

Lin Ziqing was dressed in plain clothes, usually in blue clothes, dressed like a scholar, not like an official, but more like a poor scholar with no ambitions.The boy who had set up the carriage respectfully followed behind him, followed behind a poor scholar. This scene actually looked a bit funny.

"Master." Suddenly, a boy squeezed out from the porridge stall, squeezed in front of Lin Ziqing with some difficulty, and said in a low voice, "Master, why are you here?"

Lin Ziqing calmed down his eyebrows, which had just been pondering for a while, looked around at the bustling crowd, and said in a deep voice, "Let me take a look."

The young man wiped his hands on the hem of his clothes a few times, then smiled wryly, "They are all refugees from Wenzhou, they are too busy to give out porridge all day, and there is nothing else to see."

Lin Ziqing pondered for a while, and said, "How many old people, women, and children are there among the refugees?"

The young man thought for a moment, and then replied very quickly, "Most of the elderly are only about ten people, but there are about twenty women, and about twenty children, most of them are young and middle-aged. Old and weak women and children It is estimated that half of the price has been lost on the way to Chang'an, and it is a fluke to be able to reach Chang'an."

Lin Ziqing said, "Go ahead and ask how many of these women can weave embroidered cloth. There is a shortage of embroidered women in the embroidery building over there at Wanli Commercial Bank. Take a look at the Wanli Commercial Bank. If they can keep a few, they will be calculated according to the wages per person. As for the young and middle-aged, you can go to the wharf in the next few days to see if there is any unloading business that you can get. If there is, the wages can be as low as [-]%, and the work will be brought over to us first. As for those old people and children... just continue to have a good life."

Hearing Lin Ziqing's words, the young fellow was taken aback for a while, and after a while, he came back to his senses. After he regained his senses, he said carefully, "Master, is this method feasible?" If the refugees who fled from the disaster... let them earn a living by themselves, it is inevitable that there will be some resistance and it is normal.

Lin Ziqing frowned, and said, "They are all young and middle-aged men with sound hands and feet. It is always good to let them find some jobs. Is there anything that can be done?" You and your children should take good care of three meals a day. As for other young and middle-aged people, you can tell them that you will only serve porridge once a day in the future, but you can provide them with some jobs to make money. It is not good to keep them like this all the time. way."

The boy immediately responded with a few "yes" nonsense.
