Great Blue Night Watchman

Lin Su glanced at the second sister-in-law and smiled: "Second brother, my little nephew is about to be born. You will take office in two months. What will my sister-in-law do?"

Lin Jialiang said: "I can only leave it at home. Anyway, I am now a great scholar. Although Sanping County is three thousand miles away from home, it only takes a day or two to get home."

Great Confucianism is good.

If placed in an ordinary feudal society, it would be too difficult to become an official in a different place.

Zeng Shigui said, second brother, don't worry, there is still me. I am in Beichuan, Zhongzhou, closer to Haining than you. If you have anything to do at home, just let me know and I will take care of it.

He called him second brother naturally, and he already regarded himself as a member of the Lin family.

Lin Jialiang shook hands with him gently: "Brother Zeng, thank you very much. By the way, have you started building your house?"

Construction of the house has already begun, right on the Haining River Beach. Construction materials are provided free of charge by several factories. Xiuniang has already found a job at a cement factory. She made two taels of silver last month and seems to be very happy.

Lin Su smiled. Xiu Niang should not work in the cement factory from now on. It is not appropriate for a county magistrate's wife to do that. So, let her run the perfume shop with Lu Yi and the others. The second batch of perfume should be released. , it is more appropriate for them to do this.

perfume? Zeng Shigui was shocked and quickly refused. This perfume industry is a high-end industry of your Lin family. How can Xiuniang do this? Whether it's inappropriate or inappropriate, she has been doing what poor women do all these years, and she can't do this. I have no intention of pampering her, and you shouldn't pamper her either.

Zeng Shigui was very determined.

The Lin brothers looked at each other and couldn't do anything about him.

Lin Su thought for a moment: "How about you ask her and her sister Mei Niang to help me do another thing."

"What?"

"Responsible for the management of the porcelain factory."

"Porcelain factory? What is this? Why haven't I heard of it?" Zeng Shigui had spent a long time in Jiangtan. He had a comprehensive understanding of the coal factory, brick factory, and cement factory, but he had not seen the porcelain factory.

Lin Su raised his hand, and a bottle of Spring Tears perfume appeared in his hand: "This porcelain bottle is the first generation product of the porcelain factory. At that time, because of the shortage of manpower and our weak strength, we could not hold on to a large industry, so, The porcelain factory only opened for one month and then closed down. It only produced one kind of perfume bottle. Now the situation is different..."

How are things different now?

There are 70,000 to 80,000 new refugees on the riverbank, who also need to make a living. Magistrate Yang once told Lin Su that this group of refugees has exceeded the capacity of the original factories. The factories cannot enter and are suitable for planting. The land of Tamihua is also limited. Although these refugees are mindful of the kindness of the Lin family and will not cause trouble at the moment, it will still be a big hidden danger when people run out of food over time.

What Magistrate Yang saw as a hidden danger, Lin Su saw as a business opportunity.

The porcelain factory that he couldn't open before can now be opened. The porcelain factory is an industry that requires a large number of manpower. Now that the Lin family brothers have become great scholars and officials, they don't care much about other people's malicious attacks.

So what if we set off a big wave of upgrading household products?

Zeng Shigui looked at the extremely exquisite porcelain vase in his hand and listened to Lin Su's passionate idea, and he was excited!

The 70,000 to 80,000 refugees that Lin Su paid attention to were all his elders in Jicheng. After he became a Jinshi, his mind was filled with thoughts about this huge group. Every time he thought about it, he would be sad, worried, and helpless. But as soon as Lin Su said three words, all the haze dissipated...

"Brother Lin, I am really impressed by your ability to turn stone into gold. Beichuan, where I will serve in the future, will have to pick you up no matter what..."

Haha, you haven't even taken office yet, and you are thinking about the lives of the people in your jurisdiction? So for an official like my second brother, you are just a fool...

The three men laughed.

Over at Qu Xiu, several women looked at each other. What were they talking about so happily?

Sister Chen smiled softly: "I heard a key word, porcelain! I think that in a few years, Haining porcelain will appear on the dining tables of every household on this ship. The era of household appliances revolution has arrived."

"Revolution? What do you mean?" Qu Xiu didn't understand.

"A word Xianggong said means an epoch-making change... Epoch-making is also a word Xianggong said, which means breaking some of the traditional things of this era..." Luyi added.

The next day, the ship arrived in Huichang.

The ship docked, and Lin Su and Lin Jialiang put on official uniforms and went ashore. The rest of the people stayed on the big ship and at the dock. Whether it was the two people wearing official uniforms or this magnificent ship, there was a certain The word is: stand out from the crowd.

This is not because Lin Su is showing off. The key is that people have money. On the contrary, there are many things that do not cost money. This boat was hired by the Qu family to send them. The owner of the boat has been sailing for many years and has a sharp eye. , knowing the "myth" of the capital's cloth industry - the Qu family was so careful to hire the best ship, and the person who sent it was naturally extraordinary, and they insisted on not asking for money from the beginning.

After the guest boarded the ship, he knew that he had made the right bet. The person on his ship was actually the No. 1 scholar in the Imperial College!

The number one scholar actually took his boat. The boss of the boat was so excited that he didn't sleep all day and night. As long as this matter is spread out, his boat will become the "Qingyun Boat" that all the literary people in the capital dream of. , who doesn’t want to sit on the boat that the number one scholar has ridden and become more literary?

No matter what the champion does, no matter how long the delay is, he, Boss Zhu, will wait without any regrets!

Lin Su did not choose to go ashore with everyone because he did not plan to spend the night in Huichang. There are some things that men can do. He can solve everything by himself. Lin Jialiang just sent it to him. Zeng Shigui also wanted to come, but he You have to stay and protect the women.

The Lin brothers don't need to be guarded, they are no longer weak scholars, they are a generation of great scholars who can change the world with a wave of their hands.

Lin Su walked through the streets of Huichang he had walked before and went straight to Zhizhou Mansion.

The door opposite to the prefect's house is the Zhou family. The servant guarding the door of the Zhou family's house suddenly lit up. What did he see?

Two officials came over here. They were both so young, but the official uniforms they wore were quite high. One was a fifth-grade official uniform, and the other was a seventh-grade official uniform. The lowest was a county magistrate (some county magistrates only had Eighth grade or seventh grade), such a high official does not sit in a sedan chair? Coming on foot? Are you here to visit Mr. Zhou? Mr. Zhou has a solid foundation. The Minister of Rites is his brother...

But the two high-ranking officials passed in front of Jia Ding and went straight to the Zhizhou Mansion.

The servant's eyes fell on the left face of the fifth-rank official in front, and he was suddenly startled...

Oh my god, it's him!

The servant rushed into the Zhou Mansion: Master, Master...

Zhou Luofu, who was drinking tea in the front hall, glared at him: What's the matter?

The servant said: There was a fifth-grade high-ranking official passing by the door just now. It was... it was...

who is it?

The servant said: It's Lin Su!

Zhou Luofu suddenly jumped up: Did you see clearly?

See clearly, it’s him!

Zhou Luofu's face trembled and he murmured to himself, fifth-rank official, number one scholar, fifth-rank official, number one scholar...

The lady in the other chair also had trembling lips.

This was once their son-in-law, but now, in less than a year, he has become the number one scholar, and his first official appointment is the fifth-rank official. What will the future be like for a twenty-year-old fifth-rank official? No one can measure it.

On that day, he competed with his son Zhou Liangcheng on the same stage. He was ridiculed by Zhou Liangcheng in every possible way and suppressed by the Zhou family in every possible way. But now, the Lin brothers have soared high in the sky, and Zhou Liangcheng has become a playboy with no ambition. It makes parents very worried...

Was this move wrong after all?

There are so many great people in the capital, why did you let him break through the siege and soar into the sky?

Didn't you say that it was impossible for him to pass the Jinshi examination?

Lin Su and Lin Jialiang didn't pay attention to the Zhou family at all. They came directly to the Zhizhou Mansion. The head guard in front of the mansion greeted them and bowed in greeting: "I am here to see you two adults. I don't know you two adults..."

Lin Su said calmly: "Look up and look!"

The leader of the guards raised his head, and suddenly his expression changed: "Lin..."

On that day, Qin Fangweng detained Chen Si and Lu Yi, and the incident of Lin Su coming to the government office was still fresh in the memory of the head guard. When he saw them today, his face was completely changed.

"Notify Qin Fangweng that Lin Su, the fifth-rank supervisory envoy from the capital, has come to Quzhou for supervision!"

He raised his hand, and in his palm was his official seal. The two golden characters "Supervision" were like two sharp swords, pointing directly at the magistrate's office.

"Yes! Yes!" The leader of the guards bowed repeatedly: "I will inform Mr. Zhizhou now. The two adults are here to invite you!"

Lin Jialiang smiled faintly: "Third brother, I won't go in to avoid false accusations. I will go back to the ship and wait for you."

"good!"

Lin Jialiang said nothing and returned directly to the dock from Zhizhou Mansion.

When Qin Fangweng came out of the government office, he happened to see Lin Jialiang's figure walking away from the sky. His expression was already a little off. When the officials came to the Zhizhou Mansion, they didn't even meet him and went straight to the sky. This was really a disservice to him. No respect.

His eyes fell on Lin Su's face, and when he saw Lin Su's playful eyes, Qin Fangweng's heart skipped a beat, it was really him.

Lin Su was appointed as the supervisory envoy. The high officials in the court had predicted that he would come to trouble Qin Fangweng when his period of rest was over. Who would have thought that he would come here on his way home to rest. He is a good boy with a clear distinction between love and hate. ah……

But Qin Fangweng didn't care at all. Supervisor, hehe, let me see how you supervise. I guarantee that you can find a lot of problems with me, but I also guarantee that the problems you find will not have any impact on me. I will make you mad. A grandson...

Lin Su said calmly: "Master Qin, have you never studied the Law of Da Cang? Or do you simply not see His Majesty in your eyes?"

Qin Fangweng's face suddenly sank: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Lin Su said coldly: "I have already issued the supervision order. As a local official, why don't you salute to the supervision order?"

I C!

Qin Fangweng's heart is full of MMP. You kid is all-pervasive. I was on guard against you messing with my secrets, but I wasn't on guard against this one. Lin Su holding the supervision order represented the Capital Supervision Department and the laws of the dynasty, regardless of place. No matter how high your official position is, you must bow to the supervisory order.

The problem is, there are a lot of people outside watching, including the Zhou family master. You bastard, you show the supervision order in front of so many people. I am the magistrate of the state, and a second-grade official salutes the supervision order in due course. , but people outside don’t know this way, and they think I am saluting you, the sesame official.

Although the anger in his stomach was rising, Qin Fangweng could still lift it up and put it down...

He flicked the sleeves of his robe and bowed deeply: "I am the official Qin Fangweng, the magistrate of Quzhou. I respectfully welcome the supervisory envoy of the capital to come to Quzhou to supervise all officials."

Lin Su nodded: "I am in the capital, and I have heard that there is chaos and disorder under the rule of Quzhou. The collusion between officials and businessmen, the collusion between officials and bandits, causing trouble in all directions. In the fish and meat village, I have the emperor's mandate to perform supervisory duties, and I dare not ignore it. Despite the appeal of the people, it is impossible to convict Mr. Qin out of thin air, so I came to Quzhou to witness with my own eyes."

Qin Fangweng's eyes bulged so high that his lungs almost exploded with anger, but he couldn't find any chance to refute.

Lin Su has the imperial mandate and it is true that he carries out supervisory duties.

He said that there are also cases where people criticize the government.

He dare not ignore the appeal of the people, but he will not convict people out of thin air. This is an official cliché, and all officials say so.

The problem is, there are a lot of people outside at the moment. If you, a person from the capital, talk like this, what will others think?

"Inspector... Your Excellency!" Qin Fangweng said: "Please come into the mansion to talk."

Entering the government office, the pleasant look on Qin Fangweng's face that he had deliberately put on for a long time disappeared instantly.

"Master Lin, you came to Quzhou today to take revenge, right?"

The title has also changed.

Even the official title was waived.

"Revenge! Haha..." Lin Su smiled: "I would really like to remove you from this official position, but unfortunately, I don't have the ability yet."

"You still have some self-awareness!" Qin Fangweng sneered: "Let's be honest, why did you come to the state capital today?"

"In addition to asking you to salute me in front of everyone, which is disgusting to you, I also want to tell you that since I have entered the officialdom, neither you nor Zhang Wenyuan should think about having a peaceful life."

Qin Fangweng laughed loudly: "Benzhou just said that you are somewhat self-aware, and now you have exposed your true nature. Lin Su, you are just a little ant, very, very small."

Lin Sudao: "In terms of official position alone, you are indeed higher than me, but so what? I am a capital official and you are a local official. Can you use your official position to suppress me? On the contrary, as long as I show you the supervision order, you still have to Salute me! In terms of literary talent, you are nothing in front of me. In terms of combat power, I only need a war poem to kill you. In terms of background, I don’t even bother to criticize your backer in the court!... Qin Fang Weng, you need to understand that you are not that great!"

Every time Lin Su discussed something, Qin Fangweng's face darkened. After the discussion, his face turned completely dark, and he slowly exhaled: "Is today a formal break?"

"Do you think it's just today?" Lin Su said: "When my white clothes are stained with blood and I leave, you and I will no longer stand under the same blue sky!"

When his white clothes are stained with blood, who will he know in his youth? ... Qin Fangweng suddenly remembered what Li Pingbo said that day, which made him feel very excited. He changed the subject: "How will you deal with Benzhou?"

"I will collect evidence of your crime and make it public to the world!" Lin Su said: "I want to see how a notorious Mr. Qin can secure the top position in Quzhou."

Qin Fangweng's heart skipped a beat. He was still smiling and was about to laugh, but suddenly he stiffened.

Yes, Lin Su will treat any evidence of his crimes to the Supervision Department as a joke. They are all his people, will they listen to you? But Lin Su decided not to do that and collected the evidence to make it public.

"You wantonly framed a second-rank official of the imperial court. How can the national law tolerate you?"
