As the local official of Dongqi County, it has been thirteen years since I took office.
From the skinny young man when he first came here to his current fat-bellied, ball-like figure, as well as the charming five-bedroom concubine in the backyard, it is enough to show that he eats a lot of food and drink on weekdays.
But his evaluation in the eyes of the people is not very bad.
There is only one reason.
Shen Chunhe has always believed in one purpose, which is to prevent the people from going hungry and freezing as much as possible.
Because when they are hungry and cold, the people will become bloodthirsty and unruly people, and they will cause trouble.
His official position is no longer guaranteed.
Without an official position, let alone a wealthy woman, even the swill from the pig trough will not be able to be fished out.
However, they should not be allowed to eat too much or wear too warm clothes.
Because sometimes people can cause trouble if they eat too much.
Therefore, proper exploitation and exploitation, profit and water, good for you and good for me, everyone can live in harmony.
County government office.
Li Nanke, who was originally planning to go home, was brought here by the Yamen.
There was no one else in the living room except him.
Li Nanke kept thinking about why the county magistrate suddenly summoned him. Was he planning to inquire about the Lin Mansion case, or had he heard rumors that he might join the Night Patrol Department?
But no matter what the other party's reasons are, he must remain respectful enough.
He can act casually in front of people like Leng Xinnan because those people themselves have a strong aura of "ganghu", so they don't need to be too hypocritical and polite, just get along naturally.
But not here.
Even if the other party is just a county magistrate.
"Hey, Nanke is here."
Shen Chunhe came from the back hall with a belly as big as nine months pregnant. When he saw Li Nanke, a smile appeared on his fat and fat face, and he waved his hand and said, "Sit down."
Li Nanke stood without moving, raised his hands and saluted: "I have seen you in this humble position."
Shen Chunhe stuffed his fat body into the chair, took the tea from the delicate maid, gently removed the foam with the lid of the cup, took a sip of the fine strong tea, and then sighed slowly and softly:
"Nan Ke, you have worked hard these days, investigating cases and helping to capture monsters. I feel very guilty after seeing this, and I have not been able to do anything to help you."
Saying "Nanke" showed his attitude.
Faced with the polite approach from the county magistrate, Li Nanke certainly could not take it for granted and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, you are busy with official duties and work hard for the people. It is not easy for you to think about the hard work of your humble job.
Moreover, I hold a humble position as a county government officer, and it is my duty to obey the adults' arrangements and cooperate with the night patrol department to investigate the case. The Lin Mansion case was fortunately solved this time, and it was also a blessing to the adults and the county government. Otherwise, this case could have been solved It’s hard to say if it can’t be broken.”
Was it arranged by Shen Chunhe that Li Nanke assisted in handling the case?
of course not.
That was Leng Xinnan's initiative to invite.
Is it really because of the blessings of Master Shen and the county government that this case was solved?
of course not.
This is what Li Nanke gained in exchange for his IQ.
But the so-called knowledge of advance and retreat, and knowledge of affairs are essential survival skills in the workplace and officialdom.
As he spoke, Li Nanke tried his best to tie himself to the county government and Shen Chunhe, share the credit for solving the case, and even give up the majority, just because he was still a member of the county government.
Even if he will enter the night patrol department in the future, he must not lose sight of the rules he should have.
No matter what environment you are in, you must learn to be a good person.
In interpersonal relationships, the most taboo thing is to treat your former boss coldly or even deliberately humiliate him after a sudden promotion.
Keep a line in your life so that we can meet again in the future
Can you guarantee that you won’t fall down one day? Can you guarantee that your boss won’t climb up one day?
Besides, do you know how many connections are involved behind your boss’s back?
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi.
Only by leaving room for everything can we advance or retreat.
Especially now that Li Nanke's personnel appointments for the Night Patrol Department have not yet been announced, if something goes wrong, he will have to continue working in the county government.
Hearing Li Nanke's response, the crow's feet at the corners of Shen Chunhe's eyes slowly expanded, and he smiled like a sticky spider web. He nodded at Li Nanke with the hand holding the tea lid and said, "Nanke, Nanke, no. It’s in vain that I valued you in the past.”
Look at the hammer and take a fancy to it.
If it hadn't been for this case, I probably wouldn't have bothered to deal with a small gangster.
Seeing that Li Nanke was still standing, Shen Chunhe frowned. "What are you doing standing there? Sit down. Sit down quickly." Then he ordered the maid. "Serve Nanke tea and give me the cloud that Mrs. Yuan gave me a few days ago." Chunxiang, bring it here."
After Li Nanke cupped his hands and thanked him, he sat on the chair at the bottom, his expression still respectful.
The maid served tea and stepped back lightly at Shen Chunhe's signal.
"Try it. This tea is picked from the sea of clouds. Many dignitaries and nobles like to drink it. It is very precious."
Shen Chunhe said with a smile. "Last time, I went to celebrate the birthday of the old mother of Mr. Yuan, the governor of Yuncheng. Mr. Yuan, you should also know that his father-in-law is the governor of Longjiang. After the birthday banquet, Mr. Yuan I was specially given this jar as a gift, but I’m reluctant to take it out on weekdays.”
A lot of information was revealed in just one short sentence.
First, although this tea is precious, it is not from corruption on my part. I, Shen Chunhe, am an upright official, so don’t think nonsense.
Second, I have a relationship with Mr. Yuan, the prefect of Yuncheng.
As for the depth of the relationship, you figure it out yourself.
Thirdly, I couldn't bear to drink such precious tea, but I brought it out to you, which shows that I really value you. Then the next thing to talk about is more important.
"Thank you, sir."
Li Nanke looked flattered, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and immediately exclaimed, "It smells like orchid and cinnamon, and tastes like sweet rain. It's such a good tea. No wonder Mrs. Yuan would give it to your Excellency with such high-quality tea."
Facing Li Nanke's natural flattery, Mr. Shen's smile grew stronger, and he looked at Li Nanke with special affection.
Why haven't you noticed this cute guy before?
I can only blame it on spending so much time with my aunt in the backyard that my brain is full of energy.
After the polite words were over and the relationship between the two was successfully brought closer, Shen Chunhe revealed his ultimate goal.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Nan Ke, I had an idea a long time ago and planned to make an exception for you to be my master. Unfortunately, I am too busy with official duties and have been delayed. Already."
Shen Chunhe sighed and spoke sincerely. "This time, just as the Lin Mansion case is over, I decided to formally ask you to be my master. Of course, if Nan Ke is unwilling, I will not force it. After all, everyone has his or her own ambitions."
Master?
Li Nanke was stunned for a moment, his brain running rapidly.
In just a few seconds, I understood the purpose and reason of what the other party did.
Shen Chunhe obviously already knew that Li Nanke would soon join the Night Patrol Department and would even have a promising future.
But the problem is that Li Nanke is just a small businessman in Dongqi County.
A small coward in the county government turned out to be the new star of the night patrol department. What do you want other people to think?
Shen Chunhe is said to be an official of a county, but he doesn’t even know that there is such a talented person under his nose. You don’t know talents. He is said to be full of fat and a big idiot. Can such a county magistrate manage the place well?
People's words are scary and people's hearts are unpredictable. This is how the handles and stains come about.
So what should we do at this time?
You must raise your status before the other party takes office.
Recommend Li Nanke to be the county magistrate? That is a well-established civil servant. How can he do it in a short while?
After much deliberation, the best choice was to make an exception and let Li Nanke be the 'Master'.
Although there is no preparation, it is a hundred times better than the work of others.
Besides, what is a master? That is the ‘brain’.
Now this 'brain' that I value so much has risen to prominence. It is valued by the Night Patrol Department. What does it mean?
It means that I, Shen Chunhe, have a sharp eye and a discerning eye.
It shows that I, Shen Chunhe, have the foresight to discover such a talent, otherwise how could I be my master?
So this is Shen Chunhe's ultimate goal.
Li Nanke was promoted, and his face was also honored. Isn't it beautiful to have the best of both worlds?
Of course, Shen Chunhe also knew that the other party now despised this master, so he had to persuade him and also add some chips.
"Nan Ke, what this officialdom actually emphasizes is a person's worldliness, a big net carrying a small net."
Shen Chunhe smiled and said, "Whether it is the Night Patrol Division or the Shadow Guard, they are all in the same line. If you have the opportunity to go to Yuncheng in the future, I can ask Mr. Yuan to take care of you."
Shen Chunhe's subtext is very clear.
If you enter the Night Patrol Department as a 'guru', you will definitely be ostracized and ridiculed. But if you enter as a 'master', the situation will change a bit.
At that time, I can also ask Mr. Yuan to take care of you.
In addition, ‘care’ here has two meanings.
If you follow the Tao, then you are really taking care of me.
If you don't follow the rules, then don't blame me for causing trouble behind my back. I don't dare to wear small shoes, but I still have the ability to spit.
Li Nanke understood Shen Chunhe's purpose, stood up and cupped his hands and said: "It is a blessing in my life to be appreciated by the Lord for my humble position. Your Majesty shows your love so much, how can I refuse the humble position? I would like to serve the emperor, the court, the Yamen, and your Excellency." Share worries."
As the saying goes, once you step into this big dye vat, you have to be familiar with people and know the world.
Li Nanke is not a fool.
It would not hurt him to reach an agreement with a veteran like Shen Chunhe.
Since it's a win-win situation, why refuse.
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Shen Chunhe laughed heartily, said hello three times, and personally stepped forward to support Li Nanke's shoulders and push him back to the chair.
Li Nanke was polite and expressed his gratitude.
After the two talked passionately for a while, Shen Chunhe motioned to the maid to bring over a can of tea and said with emotion: "Sir, please take this can of tea that Mrs. Yuan gave me."
"How dare you accept such a precious gift in a humble position?"
Li Nanke pretended to refuse.
Shen Chunhe waved his hand and said: "Sir, please accept it. In the entire Dongqi County, who doesn't know that I, Shen Chunhe, am a good official with a clear mind? Apart from this jar of tea, I really don't have any precious gifts to hand."
Li Nanke's face twitched a few times.
Damn it, I'm addicted to this bastard drama.
Looking at the majestic and handsome Li Nanke in front of him, Shen Chunhe couldn't help but feel a little emotional while admiring him. "It's good to be young."
Li Nanke smiled and said: "My master is still in good health."
"No more." Shen Chunhe waved his hands and shook his head with a wry smile. "I am no longer as young as I was. I am not afraid of your jokes. I had dinner a few days ago and was bored for a while. I planned to stretch my body and wander to a small secluded alley. .
I saw a small red door, surrounded by a clump of black pine trees, and the scenery was pleasant. I became interested and planned to go in for a tour. Who would have thought that within a few steps, I would feel uncomfortable and exhausted. It was unbearable, and in the end I could only give up in frustration.
I've been to many doctors, but my body and bones are still as useless as ever. So, Nanke, while you're young, go out and walk more. There are thousands of roads in the world, so it doesn't matter if you leave more footprints."
