Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 221: New official takes office


Shenzhou, the west gate of Jinxia City.

   "Call—" Hong Sizile stopped his horse and looked at the direction of the gate. Through the city gate, he can see the flow of people in the city and the lively shops on the street.

  "Master, this place...seems to be more prosperous than expected." House servant Ding Pan said very excitedly, "I thought this promotion was a secret demotion again!"

  "If you can think about it this way, it proves that the losses you have suffered before are not enough to let you learn this lesson." Hong Siqi disagrees, "You don't want to think about it. If it is really a good position, why should the staff be lost? Give it to me?"

  "Uh, this...seems to be too."

   "Compared to the prosperous places, I prefer the down-and-down town. At least I don’t have to be remembered all the time. It’s easier to get the money." He touched the horse’s head, "This place, I’m afraid Every corner is occupied by the tycoons of all parties."

  "Then...what do you want to do, lord? Do you report to the government office first?"

   "Reporting? The government has been picked up by pirates. Who am I going to report to? The most important thing is to find out who is in charge of this Yancheng now." Hong Si grabbed his horse and let his mount slow down. Walk to the gate of the city, "Let’s enter the city."

  He is the new prefect who was transferred from the staff.

  As a Jinshi in the Tianfeng period, the first half of Hong Siqi's official road was still smooth. Although he could not stay in the palace, he was stationed in other places for fifteen years, and he rose from the seventh-rank prefecture to the fifth-rank prefecture, which is considered a life. The most proud time. However, in the following ten years, he never got a promotion. Every time he was promoted, he was promoted and demoted, and it happened to be when he laid a solid foundation and was about to make a fortune. This made fewer and fewer cronies willing to follow him, and even the promoted adjutant turned around to work for the chief official who succeeded him. Sometimes Hong Siqi himself wondered whether he was being spotted by a big figure in the court. Will be treated like this.

   Until this time, it was finally no longer a flat adjustment, but a real promotion to the presidency, but he had long didn't believe that the officials made this adjustment based on his political achievements.

   Ten years of staying in place is enough to change a person’s ambitions. When he was admitted to the scholarship, he still had a grand vision. Now he just wants to save enough money, fortunately, he can live the honorable and honorable life after he becomes an official. day.

   As for the Hall of Supreme Harmony in Gyeonggi, Yuyuan has become an unattainable thing for him.

   After registering his identity and entering the city, Hong Siqi quickly discovered that the city is different-there are places under construction everywhere in the city, as if Jinxia is not an ancient city with a long history, but a newly established city. place.

   Considering the content of the letter of introduction sent with the appointment and dismissal order, he can understand that the city was attacked by pirates and many parts of the city were damaged. However, this kind of restoration is often extremely slow. People who have lost their homes usually lose their belongings. After they become refugees or street beggars, the next group of people will replace them and become new residents of this land. This process will take several months, as long as several years, depending on the total population and prosperity of the city.

   But here, he was surprised to see that many houses were being built at the same time. It was obviously not a restaurant or a hotel, but a row house that people obviously lived in. Even the shapes of these houses are extremely similar, as if someone behind them is commanding this large-scale construction in a unified manner.

   "During the day breaks the land, doesn’t it disturb the people?" Ding Pan pondered, "The government can issue a land-breaking concession for this reason, and it must pay a certain amount to start the construction. At the same time, it should be able to make money by giving certain access to the city. One stroke. Master, do you think my idea is right?"

  We must make the benefits worthwhile while receiving the benefits. This idea is that I have taught him all the time, but now... "Huh, just copy it." Hong Siqi sniffed, "You can tell from the style of the house. This is probably a collective construction. It must be difficult to have such a hand. Your method can only restrict the people who build by themselves, so don’t want to get a share of the other party’s hands."

  "Uh...Is that so?" Ding Pan touched the back of his head, "It seems that I want to make it simple."

  More than that, Hong Si said in unison. What surprised him more than the house was the sight of the roadside-no matter it was the main road or the street, he did not see the beggar. As a common figure in the city, or a group of forces, he disappeared without a trace in Jinxia City.

  He couldn't understand for a while, what happened before that made such people disappear.

  If they were attacked by pirates, they should have been increasing rapidly.

  Hong Siqi decided to choose a tea house as the entry point for him to understand the situation.

   He knew that once his identity was announced, it would be difficult for him to have a chance to actually probe into the details of Jinxia City.

   There are not many people in the teahouse unexpectedly, and there are only two or three including Xiaoer.

  After Hong Si ordered a pot of spring tea, he called Dr. Tea over and took a few copper plates, "Can you ask a few questions?"

  The latter smiled after accepting the saliva fee, "Guest officer, just ask!"

   "Hey, man over there." Suddenly someone shouted at him, "Your first time in Jinxia City?"

   Hong Siqi nodded unexpectedly, "Not bad."

  "If you want to ask questions, just go to the General Affairs Bureau. The answers there are the latest government policies, so you don’t need to ask Dr. Cha."

Dr.  Tea obviously did not dare to offend the guests, so he coughed and said, "The bureau's answer is all business matters, and there will be no gossips and anecdotes."

   General Affairs Bureau? What is this place?

   And what is the new government policy... Didn’t it mean that the whole government was given to people? He has not yet taken office as the new prefect holding the official documents of the court!

   Hong Siqi bowed his hands to the other side, thanking the other side for his kindness, and wrote down the term "General Affairs Bureau" in his heart, "I heard that Jinxia was looted by pirates a while ago, and the government office was hit hard, then Who is in charge of this city now?"

   "Hehe, the guest officer asked me well." Seeing that he was not leaving, Dr. Cha suddenly came to his mind, "There are two people in Jinxia City who speak and count. One is naturally Princess Guangping, and the other is The new prefect of the Privy Council and the organizer of the General Affairs Bureau, Master Xia Fan."

   "His Royal Highness? She is managing the affairs of the city?" Hong Siqi frowned secretly-he had roughly inquired about the situation here on the way here, and naturally knew that Jinxia was the fiefdom of Princess Guangping, but he Unexpectedly, members of the royal family would intervene in the local political situation. "Have no one raised any objection to this? I mean... the local wealthy and big households ~ IndoMTL.com~ Hey, why do you oppose it?" Dr. Cha exclaimed, "The guest officer did not know that the pirates invaded. That day, the government did not see resistance at all, and within a short time the North Wall and the East Wall were lost to their opponents. At this time, it was the princess who stepped forward and brought her guards all the way from the west gate to the east gate and from the east gate. Going back to the north gate, I finally killed myself completely blood-red."

   Hong Siqi automatically ignored the other party's exaggerated words. He also came into contact with military and political affairs when he was the prefect, and he knew clearly that fighting with troops can never be won by a single person. "Then what happened to the Privy Council House? I remember they only deal with evil events, right?"

   "Master Xia was supported by Princess Quang Binh alone, and it can be regarded as the actual implementer of the decree." Dr. Cha enthusiastically replied, "He is a great good man. Since the government neglected his duties, he has set up a comprehensive Bureau of Affairs. It also helps disaster-stricken households repair their houses and distributes relief food to prevent refugees from being hungry. Now there are many job-raising opportunities there. The employer is regarded as the Princess of Quang Binh, and the remuneration is paid on time and on time, so everyone feels that summer The words of an adult are not much different from the princess herself."

   "Then...who will deal with the security and disputes in the city?"

   "Of course it is the arrest of the bureau-they not only take care of evil, but also general criminal investigation cases."

   Hong Siqi's heart rumbling loudly.

   over, over.

  What kind of disaster relief organization is this...

   This is clearly a government department that completely replaced the Jinxia City Government Office!
