"Yes, here." Magistrate Wu hurriedly handed over the county's roster. "Everyone's salary, origin, characteristics, and subordinate officials are listed at the side. Please take a look at it by the special envoy."
He Lingchuan also praised him: "Magistrate Wu is very careful."
Magistrate Wu said with a smile: "The special envoy is so complimentary."
But He Lingchuan didn't even open the list. He just threw it on the table and took another sip of tea before asking: "Which surname is the most common in Shihuan City?"
"Ah?" Magistrate Wu was stunned by this amazing turn of events, and it took him a while to react, "Oh, there are the most people named Li!"
"How many are there in your house?"
Magistrate Wu calculated the number of breaths silently: "Is there...seven or eight?"
"Sure enough, there are quite a few." He Lingchuan clicked twice on the roster with his middle finger: "In this roster, all the people named Li have been dismissed."
"This!" The sweat on Magistrate Wu's forehead suddenly dripped down. "Special envoy, is this inappropriate?"
Laying off employees based on surname is such a child's play!
“What’s the second most popular last name?”
Magistrate Wu County was stunned.
Does the special envoy want him to lay off people like this? Regardless of resume, ability, age, or seniority?
It’s too simple and crude!
"I don't know them, and I don't want to examine them, let alone know what difficulties they have. These have nothing to do with me. When the national crisis comes, everyone from the common people to the officials will face the national crisis together." He Lingchuan's left hand was in the shape of a knife.
Everything on the roster is empty, "Shihuan County Government can only have three levels of salary, and a maximum of twenty people can receive the salary. If County Magistrate Wu doesn't want me to cut it all, he should go back and sort out the list, and at least leave a few capable people for himself."
People who use it.”
He said leisurely: "If you can't even make the decision on this matter..."
Those who will not be laid off will themselves be laid off.
Magistrate Wu was secretly excited and said quickly: "I, I, I will draw up the list carefully when I go back!"
"Hurry!" He Lingchuan raised two fingers, "I'll give you two days. Oh, by the way, the lame groom can stay. Everyone has compassion."
His attitude was very clear, and Magistrate Wu had no choice but to hold the roster and leave dejectedly.
He Lingchuan looked at his back and shook his head secretly.
There was something fishy in the roster, and he knew it without opening it. As long as he really played the game of "who stays and who goes" with Magistrate Wu, then this mess would never end.
But what does this have to do with He Lingchuan? He only cares about the results, not the process.
Just let these officials figure it out on their own.
The official system of this country is too redundant and inefficient. What can be done by two people must be done by twenty people. The Kite country has internal and external troubles. If it wants to survive, it has to downsize, reduce staff, and increase efficiency.
If not...
hehe.
Because the special envoy's expenditure audit was too strict, Yuan Ting also had a huge quarrel.
Many veterans complained, saying that although the war on both sides is important, the important affairs of the Yuan Kingdom are not only the war, but also the national economy and people's livelihood. For example, the banks of the two large rivers in the southeast should be strengthened, otherwise when the summer floods come, the fields will be destroyed and countless people will be injured.
So much.
Since he monitored the expenditure items, He Lingchuan realized that there are countless places where a country uses money, ranging from trivial things to the livelihoods of thousands of people.
The down payment of more than 3.7 million yuan is just a drop in the bucket. As long as he loosens his grip a little, there won't be a fortune left.
Money, this country is so short of money.
After working like this for a few days, Mrs. Ying heard the two brothers discussing money at the dinner table and suddenly said:
"Chuan'er, how long will you be the special envoy of Rongshan?"
"Ah?" This was the first time someone asked this question. He Lingchuan was startled and then said, "It will be until all the seven million taels of loan are used up. It will be very soon. I have been reviewing the last few items in the past two days, and the balance will be paid soon."
By then, his special envoy mission will be basically completed.
"It's good for you to be a selfless special envoy, but you are still a kite. Now that you have offended so many ministers, I'm afraid they will make things difficult for you after you step down as special envoy."
I have thought about him. He Lingchuan was moved and said: "I have thought carefully. However!"
Listening to his tone, Mrs. Ying knew that he was going to do something weird, so she curled her lips and said, "But what?"
"Don't even look at who my father is!" He Lingchuan said proudly, "As long as my father gets promoted step by step, what can others do to me?"
It's hard for him to say that he doesn't care about Yuanting or everything here, right?
This is the underlying reason why he is selfless and "wholeheartedly serves the public":
He doesn't care.
The officials of Yuan Kingdom always thought that he looked down on them and deliberately made things difficult for them.
Actually no, He Lingchuan could not see them at all.
Mrs. Ying rolled her eyes at him, but knew that he was right, and she felt a little happy in her heart.
She asked for a signature at the bank of Xianling Lake, saying that she would enjoy prosperity and prosperity in the future. Could it be that now is the time?
Before the meal was finished, Butler Wu suddenly rushed in and said: "Good news, good news! Madam, two young masters, our master won the battle in the south!"
Mrs. Ying stood up when she heard the sound, her eyes widened.
Steward Wu pointed at the dusty informant beside him and said, "Tell me, tell me the process!"
This man was gray-faced, panting, and smelled of horse sweat. He had obviously come from afar: "The general will lead his army to arrive in seven days, but the rebels don't know it. So the general put old, weak and remnant soldiers as bait in Buxin City to lure the main force of the rebel army."
Go forward to attack the city, while we will go around and capture the rebel camp, and set up an ambush on the way back to support the main rebel army, waiting for the work to be done, and we will win a complete victory!"
Mrs. Ying pressed her chest, breathless with excitement: "This is great!"
What a great victory, one battle will determine the outcome!
This great victory for my husband is a timely blessing for Yuan Kingdom!
He Lingchuan and He Yue immediately asked: "What then?"
The soldiers who reported the news were concise and concise, but the brothers still heard the smell of bloodshed. After this battle, no one knows how many lives were lost.
He Chunhua's strategy was very light, focusing on an information gap. The rebels' march north had been going smoothly. The cities they encountered either surrendered or had weak resistance. They would disarm after just a few twists and turns. Little did they know that General Changning had led his army south. They thought they were attacking Buxin.
Cheng was also captured at hand, but He Chunhua was caught off guard by a calculated calculation that was not intentional.
This advantage can only be used once. Fortunately, He Chunhua did not waste it at all and basically managed to defeat the enemy's main force quickly.
This victory was really hard to come by.
"One of the two leaders of the rebels was beheaded on the spot, and the other led the remaining troops to retreat to the west. Zhao Qinghe and Wu Shaoyi divided their forces to attack them, and killed more than 3,000 people; Zeng Feixiong's tribe was lying in ambush at the western entrance of Longchuan River
, and finally intercepted it." The reporting soldier said, "At this rate, there are only eight hundred rebels who have fled into Longchuan!"
Mrs. Ying asked again: "Didn't you say that there is another rebel leader?"
"This man's name is Tan Xian, and he fled into Longchuan."
