After the immortal disappeared

This is a two-level promotion, managing a team of craftsmen.

If there is a punishment, there must be a reward.

Lord Xu was overjoyed and thanked the king for his kindness.

"Since the king has set a deadline of four months, Lord You and I must live up to your trust and keep a close eye on the progress of the project." He Lingchuan said word by word, "If the new city house land cannot be sold and the money cannot be recovered within four months, this project will definitely not be able to continue! By then, everyone present will be in trouble."

The officials looked at each other, and no one said a word.

What do you mean by in trouble? This project involves hundreds of officials, and there are more than thousands of people outside. It is said that the law does not punish the masses. With so many officials involved, can the king of Yao punish all of them?

What a shock that would cause in the court of the king of Yao!

Who would dare to work for the king in the future?

He Lingchuan knew what they were thinking, and then he said: "The progress is seven days behind! To catch up with these seven days, we have to work overtime and redouble our efforts! My king has approved that the expansion of the new city must not be stopped for a moment, and we must work hard for twelve hours a day! From tonight, from this moment on, we must work all night! All adults should work according to this schedule and complete their duties on time."

"Those who think they can't hold on can walk out of this door now and chase Qi Shuhuan." He pointed to the book on the table, "Those who are determined to stay, sign the military order now, one copy per person. But if there is delay or dereliction of duty, you will be dealt with according to the order! At that time, it will not be as simple as losing your job."

The officials were all shocked and said: "Master You! This, this?"

They are not fighting on the front line, why sign a military order?

You Rongzhi also nodded: "The king said that building a new city is like fighting a big battle! Whoever fails to do it well will be punished by law! Please take it seriously and don't take it lightly!"

Officials thought that the law does not punish the masses. If such a large project is not done well, it is also the group's dereliction of duty. How can they blame themselves?

He Lingchuan's method is to let them make their own mistakes and take their own pot.

There is no group to be punished, only individuals.

Only when the board hits an individual will he know the pain and be able to restrain his mind and work honestly.

He Lingchuan slowed down his tone and said seriously: "There is still time. I promise you that as long as we cheer up and do our work according to the rules, we can not only recover the seven-day construction period, but also complete the work within four months! By then, the new city will flourish, and you will be rewarded for your merits, so as not to let down this precious seat!"

In addition to the officials who are engaged in palace construction and have experience in the construction office, there are also many who bought tickets to enter.

Just like Qi Shuhuan, the family spent a lot of money to buy a "seat" in the expansion project, which was very costly.

Therefore, they have a heavy responsibility on their shoulders and will never quit halfway.

This position is so precious that others can't get in even if they try their best. How dare they give it up? Even if they are willing, the power behind them will not.

"Send the order."

He Lingchuan gave an order, and the palace servants took out the military orders prepared in advance and distributed them one by one.

Most of the officials present saw the legendary military orders for the first time. When they saw the glaring red stamp on it, their hearts suddenly sank.

That is the weight of responsibility.

Look at the rules above, one, two, three, four, five, detailed and strict. The general idea is that if the officials who signed the order violated it, they would be dealt with according to the order.

Huang Shilu calculated silently that if he really followed the rules, he would have less than three hours of eating and sleeping every day, and the rest of the time would be spent on the project, busy like a whipped top.

The other officials all winked at him. Huang Shilu considered his tone and was about to speak. He Lingchuan swept his eyes and strode to his side, looking down at him: "Do you have any questions, Mr. Huang?"

His smile was meaningful, and Huang Shilu felt cold in his heart, afraid that he would be stared at: "Nothing, nothing!"

So the officials, with mixed feelings, pierced their fingertips and signed their blood-red names on the military order.

Although they were extremely reluctant, this military order emphasized efficiency and progress, and there were no regulations on taking bribes. Perhaps the superiors also understood that this aspect could not be prevented, so they simply did not mention it.

The purpose of their joining this team can still be achieved.

After Huang Shilu signed the last stroke, He Lingchuan took the military order and blew it dry, smiling and saying: "These military orders will be kept by me. Dear adults, please work together and forge ahead!"

Everyone understood that this meant that he was here to supervise.

This guy, this guy is really not afraid of offending people!

With the thunder and lightning outside, He Lingchuan showed the unscrupulous face of the client: "Work overtime, start tonight."

Huang Shilu murmured: "He, He Island Master, it has rained too much recently, and the rocks have slipped. It is really dangerous to build a road in Lushan at this time. Yesterday, two refugees who were paving the road slipped to the bottom of the cliff and have not been found yet."

Most of the terrain in the new city is flat, with only two small hills, Lushan is one of them. Although it is not high, the rock and soil are weathered and loose, and the road is very difficult to repair. It often collapses while being chiseled.

But if you don't go through Lushan, you have to take a long detour between Yunsong Town and Youhu.

Huang Shilu was ashamed to find an excuse immediately after signing the military order, and he was also afraid that He Lingchuan would punish him.

He Lingchuan also walks this road every day and knows that he is right. It has rained for many consecutive days, and the probability of landslides is very high.

He wants to meet the deadline, not harvest lives.

Of course he also understood that if he insisted, the project would continue tonight, but there might be more innocent souls left under the cliff.

He Lingchuan turned to You Rongzhi and said, "Master You, please come into the palace and pray to the king for the use of your energy!"

You Rong was shocked: "What..."

With so many pairs of eyes watching from the side, he didn't want to lose his composure, so he pulled He Lingchuan aside and confirmed in a low voice: "Master He, are you talking about Yuanli?"

"Yes." He Lingchuan pointed out the window, "It looks like it will rain for at least another seven or eight days. If we don't use some special measures, the Lushan Road will not be repaired, and then the transportation of materials from the south will have to take a long way. Road, the progress of the project cannot be accelerated.”

"But Yuan Li is a precious treasure of the country, and it is really useless to use it to build roads..."

"Good steel must be used on the edge of the sword. The eastward expansion of the capital is also a war, and it is a big battle that must be won but not defeated. You see, we have all signed military orders." He Lingchuan said seriously, "The country of Yao has been in good weather in recent years, and there has been no war or chaos. , shouldn’t the energy saved in this way be used for important matters related to the national economy and people’s livelihood?”

You Rongzhi remained silent.

That makes sense, but...

He Lingchuan continued: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. It took a lot of effort to mobilize the atmosphere here tonight. If everything stops immediately, our show will be in vain and the project will be in vain. Mr. You, the most important thing is If we want everyone to overcome obstacles, we must first overcome them!"

What does "all at once?" mean? You Rongzhi could understand it literally, and he raised his voice after a moment of pondering, "Let everyone get ready, I'll go to the palace first."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

At this time, Gong Chai also collected all the military orders and handed them over to He Lingchuan.

He slapped the thick pile of paper in front of him and said, "Okay, please return to your respective positions and perform your duties. Lord You should be able to invite Yuan Li down soon. But a little wind and rain can't stop us. Built the city!"

He called for dismissal, but the officials did not leave immediately. At least seven or eight people gathered around him and asked him to further guide their work. He was extremely humble.

He Lingchuan also changed his expression in a second, becoming friendly and humorous, and no longer took Qiao for granted.

Huang Shilu was also next to him and asked for advice for more than a quarter of an hour before leaving.

Outside is a long wind and rain corridor, which is a bit like an arcade. You can walk under it and watch the trees sway in the wind, but the rain won't hit you.

Huang Shilu had only taken a few steps when two officials he was friends with caught up behind him: "Brother Huang, Brother Huang, let's go together."

"Hurry up, I have to rush to Mount Lu." Once out of this wind and rain corridor, even if I have an umbrella, I will still be half wet.

An official said: "Brother Huang, do you think the king is serious this time? Is he really asking He Xiao to take care of things?"

Another asked: "Master You is in command, can he delegate power?"

Huang Shilu chuckled: "You two haven't understood yet? It's He Xiao who says anything that offends people, and He Xiao does everything that offends people. Master You should just treat him as his good old man."

Both officials let out a long sigh. It turns out that there is a division of labor.

"If Mr. You comes out to offend others on his own, who can mediate?" Huang Shilu coughed, "This was supposed to be Mr. Wang Dongxing's job, but he ended up getting sick."

"Hey, Jiang is still too old." Another official said in a low voice, "He Xiao is young after all, Master You can't be vigorous and resolute."

"This has nothing to do with youth. After all, Mr. You works in the royal court and has to be considerate of the world." Huang Shilu shook his head, "But He Xiao has no position or title. Although he has received a medal, he is actually still a commoner and a foreigner! He is here. No matter how hard you offend someone, after the eastward expansion project is over, the king can find any reason to deal with him, which will not only let us vent our anger, but also not chill the hearts of his subjects. "

He Xiao is a bad guy, and if King Yao gets rid of him, they ministers should be grateful and call the King Huiming.

Both of them said: "Brother Huang still sees clearly."

"Then on the other hand, in the next period of time, the king will really let He Xiao take care of things." Huang Shilu glanced at the two of them, "We all have to keep our heads down and don't hit the tip of his knife with our chests."

This time He Lingchuan left the house and rode a horse to see the construction site of the new city.

There was no one around, so the soul-catching mirror asked him: "Hey, can You Rongzhi invite Yuan Li down?"

"Yes." He Lingchuan didn't even think about it. "If he is not sure, there is no need to shout loudly to remind him to enter the palace before leaving. If Yuanli is not used for national affairs, where else can it be used? The current situation is imminent. Fa, if he can figure it out, King Yao can do it even better."

The mirror was silent for a moment before asking: "What are you doing tonight?"

"Take power." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "King Yao acquiesces, and You Rongzhi won't fight, so why should I be polite? Of course I have to hold it in my hand!"

"You Rongzhi has always been unwilling to offend people, so let me be the bad guy. But on the other hand, if you can manage people, you have real power." King Yao always refused to delegate power to him, but it didn't matter. As long as He Lingchuan had the final say, he would Have real power!

He said slowly: "Only after gathering this part of power can I start the next step."

As soon as he finished speaking, a giant lightning flashed through the night in front of him, as ferocious as a dragon!

The light illuminated the surrounding areas, casting a chilly look on his face.
