Chapter 012 Take office

Lin Zimo was granted a license by the Ministry of Public Affairs, so he naturally had to take office. Although his main book position is nothing in the golden tower of power in the Ming Dynasty, he is in charge of the documents of a county. In the eyes of the people of Pingnan County, he is an official. Lin Zimo, who has a better life at home, finally has three meals to eat every day.

After breakfast, he changed into the official uniform of Zhengjiupin's master book and left home to walk to the county government office to "report". The Pingnan County Office, located in the center of the county seat, is extraordinary, and the two stone lions under the steps of the gate are even more majestic. The drum was placed on the right step and was taken care of by two publicmen on duty.

Wang Pengfei knew that Lin Zimo arrived at the county government on the first day, so he stood early on the steps of the county government gate and waited. The two servants saw Lin Zimo's arrival with a smile on their faces. After asking him well, he was taken by Wang Pengfei to familiarize himself with the government. The county government gate is composed of the lobby, the back hall, the flower hall, the detention room, the curtain hall, the sixth room, the third class, the prison and the gate, the ceremony gate, the house door, etc. Lin Zimo, who had visited roughly once, finally came to his office.

Wang Pengfei, who was properly arranged, was ready to leave and said, "Master Lin is busy first, so I won't bother you here."

Lin Zimo arched his hands and said politely, "Brother Wang, please bother. Since you have official business, I won't keep you."

After saying that, he sent Wang Pengfei out of the door, then returned to his position to sit down and read the official documents on the desk. Lin Zimo is a superior officer, so he has an independent office. In some counties with a wide range of areas or more complicated affairs, the officials also have their own jurisdiction. Fortunately, there are still some "skills" left in my body and mind, otherwise it is really difficult to deal with the current errands. Holding the brush in his right hand, he did the current job in a good way.

Zhang Chi, wearing a black gauze hat, wore the official uniform of Zhengqipin Zhixian, walked in in all directions and put on a proper breath and said, "You should be the new master book Lin Zimo?"

Lin Zimo, who heard the sound, raised his eyes and observed him and found that he was a middle-aged man who was not amazing. Since Zhang Chi can serve as a county magistrate at this age, it shows that he has been a scholar in the field for many years. Although Lin Zimo saw him for the first time, he could tell from his dress, expression and tone that this person was the supreme of a county.

"I don't know what to say when the county is here?" At the age of 20, Lin Zimo, who was 40 years old, said politely.

"Master Lin was so diligent on his first day in office, and he was really a model for others." Zhang Chi, who saw that there were only two of them in the room, did not turn around and said, "At noon, at Wanfu Restaurant, I will prepare thin wine for you to wash the wind and dust."

Lin Zimo, who had no reason to refuse, had to agree and understand that this was a set of rules. In a county, Zuo Yiguan is an official second only to the county magistrate and a grading officer of a county. When the county vacancy or before the new county takes office, it is generally used as an assistant to take the position of the county magistrate. Many prefectures are also promoted directly from the county magistrate or the master book.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a special and subtle relationship between the officer and the chief official. In order to prevent local officials from obscuring the people, the Ming Dynasty often sent patrols to the grassroots. According to the regulations, the patrol does not transfer the power of the chief officer, but he can mobilize the governors of the state and county, or temporarily appoint some officers. Based on this relationship, the chief officer is sometimes afraid of the superior officer.

Zhang Chi came here as a means to attract superior relations than by following the rules. The purpose of his arrival has been explained, and then casually encouraged Lin Zimo to say a few words and then turned around and left. Lin Zimo, who returned to his seat, continues to be familiar with his business. After all, this will be his "handiwork" to settle down.

Lin Zimo, who got off work, came to Wanfu Restaurant in advance. After all, subordinates and other superiors should do it. Under the guidance of Xiao Er, he walked into the largest and most luxurious private room of the restaurant. For similar entertainment, I was already familiar with it in the 21st century. Although it is the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago, the philosophy of interpersonal relations of the Chinese people is to change.

Lin Zimo opened the window and looked at the bustling crowd downstairs, with a little emotion in his heart. It has been more than two months since I broke my fingers and calculated it. As for the way back to the future, he has never found it. However, he didn't get nothing. After all, his relationship with his wife and concubine is getting deeper and deeper.

With the sound of "crunching", a wrinkled and thin old man came in wearing the official uniform of the county magistrate of the eighth grade and said with a smile, "It's better to be young. Unexpectedly, the forest master book has arrived first."

Lin Zimo, who turned around, knew that he should be Li Renjie, so he said politely, "I just arrived."

Li Renjie's small eyes turned and pretended to be ignorant and said, "I really don't know why the county lord asked us to come here? I'm so old that I'm afraid I won't beg for bones from the court soon. To assist the matter of the county magistrate, I hope that the forest master's book will be more careful.

Lin Zimo smiled and said, "Li Xiancheng, you are always strong. You are indispensable to the government of Pingnan County. After the promotion of the county, the whole county will rely on you.

Lin Zimo's words naturally speak of Li Renjie's heart. After all, he is extremely willing to be a magistrate. A trace of joy quickly floated on his face, thinking that the young man in front of him was still quite sensible. Before coming, Li Renjie thought that Lin Zimo would be an arrogant person. After all, he got a solution at the age of 20. As for his idea of giving up participating in the trial, he really couldn't understand it. In the minds of scholars, it is called the first major event in life by showing achievements in the field of science.

Although Li Renjie won the list in his own years, he failed to be a grandson in the examination three times, and he could not be "recorded" with the Ministry of officials. After living in Pingnan County for many years, it was not easy to get to the position of county magistrate. If Zhang Chi is transferred to a promotion at the end of his term, he said that he may not really have a chance to fulfill his long-cherished wish before he dies.

In less than a bit of incense, under the service of the shopkeeper, Zhang Chi took an official step, walked in and smiled gently and said, "Since you two have arrived, please enter the table quickly."

"Your Excellency, please go first." Li Renjie went three steps forward and greeted him with a smiling face.

Zhang Chi was not polite. He sat on the main seat, and then Li Renjie and Lin Zimo sat down separately. The shopkeeper put all the delicacies that had been prepared for a long time on the table, and then filled them with wine according to the grade of the three people. He knew the rules and said, 'Slow use it, if you need to greet the little one', and then retreated.

"You two are my right-hand man. It will be difficult for me to walk in Pingnan County without your assistance." Zhang Chi held the glass in his hand and smiled, "For the arrival of Lin Xieyuan, we drink this cup full."

Li Renjie held the glass with both hands, while Lin Zimo raised the glass with one hand, and then the three of them drank all together. Lin Zi, who should have been the youngest, the lowest grade and the youngest, poured wine silently, but Li Renjie grabbed the wine pot and took the initiative to fill Zhang Chi and himself with wine. He is all about taking advantage of Zhang Chi's path to make progress. After all, his mentor who will try to be admitted is a senior official of the current dynasty.

"Guangxi has always been a strong folk, and both of them are natives." Zhang Chi said impatiently, "Today's world is not peaceful, and the heavy responsibility of ensuring the environment and the people falls on the three of us. We must unite sincerely and live up to the expectations of the court for us.

"What the county magistrate said is. For those unruly people who dare not obey the king's law, catch one less and kill one less. Li Renjie's old face showed a little anger.

Zhang Chi nodded and stared at Lin Zi, who was sitting beside him, and said, "Master Lin, is there a good way to govern the unruly people?"

I think that we should focus on counseling and appeasement. There is no way for the people to make trouble. If they have other ways to live, I don't think they will do this stupid thing. Lin Zimo said seriously.

Zhang Chi's eyebrows were locked in the center of his eyebrows and did not make a direct statement. Instead, he picked up the glass again and said, "Come on, let's not talk and drink this glass of wine."

Li Renjie and Lin Zimo immediately picked up the wine glass and drank it slowly. The best wine makes Lin Zimo drink strangely. He knew in his heart that Zhang Chi agreed with Li Renjie's iron-blooded wrist and would carry out a cruel and bloody suppression of the people who made trouble. I am a little worried about the future of Pingnan County.

Li Renjie took the initiative to fill Zhang Chi with wine again and said, "Don't worry about the county. A few unruly people can't achieve any climate. Taking this opportunity, we might as well let the gentry, merchants and people of our county...hehe..."

Zhang Chi pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Money and powerful efforts are indeed a good way to protect the people. However, I'm afraid that some of them will ignore the current situation.

"County, please relax. I have my own way." Li Renjie smiled gloomily.

Lin Zimo, who understood, knew that they were going to have a chaotic showdown, charge arbitrary fees, and use power for personal gain. Since they talked about it in front of themselves, it was a good idea. If you don't object now, it will be difficult to say anything in the future. Lin Zimo, who thought about it, felt that the two might be more of a temptation for him. Whether it is true or false, if you are a light-spoket person, it may not be useful. Without saying a word, he buried himself in the food and did not express any opinions and opinions.
