Zheng Rudao:
"The subordinates are willing to give orders for the examination."
Qin Luoheng said solemnly: "I advise you to think about it again."
Zheng Ru said in a deep voice: "I have made a decision. No matter what political affairs the young master entrusts me with, I will do my best to complete it and I will never betray the trust of the young master."
Qin Luoheng raised his head.
He looked at Zheng Ru and finally nodded.
He actually guessed Zheng Ru's answer.
Zheng Ru is the son of Zheng Guo, and he has a certain amount of arrogance in his bones. If he goes to other places, he may be willing to be a minor official, but the Shangshu Division is different. There are many sons of courtiers in the Shangshu Division.
Are you willing to always be inferior to others?
Zheng Ru couldn't afford to lose this person.
Therefore, if he wanted to come to the Shangshu Department, he would only choose to take the Gong Ling Examination!
This can be regarded as a little plan by Qin Luoheng.
But Qin Luoheng thought it was worth it.
The Zheng family is no longer the same as before. Zheng Ru can only rely on himself now, so from another perspective, Zheng Ru can completely obey his orders, and this is exactly the official Qin Luoheng needs now.
Qin Luoheng said in a deep voice:
"I also put my words first."
"The Shang Shu Division does not support idle people. If you have other thoughts, I advise you not to come to the Shang Shu Division. Moreover, the task I want to give to the Examination Work Order is the top priority, even far more than others. In front of me
What I said is by no means alarmist.”
"What I want is not an ordinary official."
"What I want is a cool official!"
"A cool official who makes hundreds of families change their minds after hearing about it!"
"Have you really thought about it?"
Qin Luoheng asked again and again.
Zheng Ru nodded very seriously, cupped his hands and said: "I have no second thoughts about the young master, and I am willing to go forward for him."
"Please don't worry, Master!"
Qin Luoheng looked deeply at Zheng Ru.
He opened his mouth and said:
"That's it."
"I'll tell you about the ministry of the Examination Work Order."
"'Forcing' Baijia to death!"
Hear the words.
Zheng Ru was startled.
He clearly remembered that Baijia was deliberately recruited by the Tenth Young Master before. Why did the Tenth Young Master want to force Baijia to death after just one year?
What is the reason for this?
but.
Zheng Ru did not ask why.
He always remembered Zheng Guo's teachings before his death. As a minister, it is your bounden duty to obey orders. The first duty is to obey orders, never to ask or question, let alone think wildly, or even act smart, let alone rely on closeness.
, then he is arrogant and self-righteous.
Zheng Rudao: "I obey the order."
See the situation.
Qin Luoheng frowned slightly.
He was very satisfied with Zheng Ru's current attitude.
Qin Luoheng said:
"Are you confused?"
"Bai Jia is obviously close to me, why should I kill Bai Jia?!"
"My subordinates have absolutely no such thoughts," Zheng Rudao said.
Qin Luoheng smiled.
said:
"You don't have to be so reserved."
"When I tell you to 'force' Baijia to death, I don't mean to put Baijia to death, but to force Baijia to a dead end. Only when people face desperate situations can they unleash their greatest potential."
"And I just want to lend your hand to unleash the potential of Baijia."
"Look at the documents that Gu sent."
Finished.
Qin Luoheng threw the bamboo slips on the case to the ground.
Zheng Ru hesitated for a moment, picked up the bamboo slips from the ground, examined them carefully, and then respectfully put them back on the Qin Luoheng case.
Qin Luoheng asked:
"What did you see in this document?"
Zheng Rudao:
"Go back to me, sir."
"Farmer Mojia seems to have improved some efficiency of farming."
"Some improvements have also been made to some tools."
"but......"
"The amount of pig iron consumed seems to be too large, which may not be conducive to promotion, but overall, it has been improved on the original basis. As time goes by, it may not be impossible to go further."
"Promotion?" Qin Luoheng sneered and said disdainfully: "What kind of promotion is this?"
"Hundreds of kilograms of pig iron were used to produce something flashy. I originally had high hopes for the farmers and the Mo family, but this is how they responded to me?"
"Do you think people from hundreds of families are attentive?"
"But in my opinion, they have no intention at all and are just perfunctory. If I had never been homeless somewhere, I probably wouldn't be able to see anything strange. However, I have indeed been homeless for ten years, so I can see their tricks.
It’s crystal clear.”
"Is the so-called improvement really improvement?"
"If replacing bronze with iron will improve things, do we need to use them? Don't other officials of Da Qin know that replacing bronze with iron can greatly improve many things? Who doesn't know this common sense?"
Zheng Ru lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
He knows a thing or two about himself.
At least.
In the past, stone and wooden plowshares were mostly used for cultivating land. Only in the past hundred years did bronze and iron plowshares begin to be used on a large scale. The reason is obvious, because this kind of plowshare can greatly improve the efficiency of plowing fields and increase grain production.
However, Da Qin's iron output is not high.
Therefore, the iron plows that are basically used are not the all-iron plows produced by Baijia.
Qin Luoheng said coldly:
"After the unification of the world, Da Qin collected thousands of books in the world, including books on agriculture, handicrafts, manufacturing, etc., and all of them were read by the farmers and Mohists. In other words, the farmers and Mohists absorbed hundreds of years of experience in the Great Zhou Dynasty. However,
?”
"Where did they make a breakthrough?"
"No!!!"
"Today's farmers, the Mo family, are just a bunch of worms resting on the merits of their ancestors. They have no knowledge, no ambition at all, and no sense of shame. How can I continue to condone such people?"
"Great Qin does not raise waste!"
"Since they want to fool me, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"The task I give you is very simple."
"Every time the farmers, the Mohists, think of an 'improvement' method, they let them go to the smelting furnace to create it. Let them go to the fields, workshops, mines, and places where these things can be used. Let me try them one by one.
, and it must be completed in person, and it must achieve certain results.”
"Comparing the first time with the original time."
"The second time is a comparison of effectiveness."
"The third time was a waste of money and manpower for comparison."
"My requirements are not high. Their finished products can only take less time, be more effective, and consume less resources. If not, they will be executed on the spot!"
"I don't have time to waste with them."
"Since they are not serious, then force them to be serious."
"If they refuse to submit, or deliberately delay, everything will be handled in accordance with military law and executed immediately. There is no need to report this matter to me. I have no intention to listen."
"I only care about one thing."
"The tools they made did not meet my original requirements."
"Your job is to force them to submit."
"Don't care about their death."
"No matter how many children of the farmer's family or the Mo family die, I will apply to my father to make up for them all. I would like to see if they die quickly or if I can replenish the money quickly, or I also want to see the farmer's Mo family's.
Are people really so stubborn?"
Qin Luoheng's eyes were as cold as iron.
Zheng Ru felt cold sweat break out on his back. He looked at Qin Luoheng as if he had seen a nightmare. He had never been so afraid of Qin Luoheng at that moment. He was completely different from the young man when they first met him. Qin Luoheng at this moment
, full of cold-blooded ruthlessness and cruelty.
Treat human life as nothing!
Qin Luoheng looked at Zheng Ru coldly.
He said indifferently: "If the peasant Mo family hadn't been so perfunctory, how could I have treated them like this? It's just that time waits for no one, and I can't waste any more time on them."
"I gave them a lot of chances."
"pity......"
"Everything of them wasted."
"And today, I don't know how many people don't have enough food and clothing, but how do they do it despite the aspirations of Shennong and Mozi? They only care about their own enjoyment all day long, and they have long forgotten that the reason why they are able to receive such treatment is
Why come.”
"That's it."
"I'll let them wake up."
"The world is so difficult!"
Zheng Ru's heart froze, and he said with a fierce look: "I will remember the young master's words, go to Chaoge and strictly manage the hundreds of families, never let them be scornful and slack again, and make them achieve the prince's goal as soon as possible
.”
Qin Luoheng frowned slightly.
Said: "The reputation of Baijia is not small among the people. If you insist on forcing each other, there will probably be a lot of rumors and even bad words. I can't help you."
Zheng Rudao:
"The subordinates are ministers and officials, and they should act according to orders."
"How dare I spare my life for this?!"
Qin Luoheng looked at Zheng Ru and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He had hoped to keep it that way.
But Gu disappointed him.
However, fortunately, there is a bright future in another village. What Gu failed to do, Zheng Ru is now more aware than Gu. Zheng Ru's performance is actually beyond Qin Luoheng's expectation. He probably thought that maybe it was during this period.
The cold reception made Zheng Ru become more realistic, or maybe Zheng Guo taught Zheng Ru a few words before his death, which made Zheng Ru realize a lot.
Regardless.
He is the ultimate beneficiary!
Qin Luoheng looked at the bamboo pieces on the case. He had almost finished explaining what he wanted to Hua. He then sealed it with a seal, stamped it with a seal, and then roasted it a little on the stove to let it go.
The sealing mud was dried as quickly as possible and finally set aside.
While packing up the secret letter, he said: "After you have finished explaining the affairs of the clan in the past few days, you can set off for Chaoge. If you go to Chaoge, if things are not going well, you can discuss it with Hua. If Hua wants to be with Hua,
The son of the censor is very close to me, so I can tell him everything."
"He is a servant of the minister, so he should be able to solve it for you."
Hear the words.
Zheng Ru had a strange look on his face.
He clearly remembered that Shangshu Pushe was Gu, when did he become Hua Yao?
Moreover, the Tenth Young Master also said earlier that he was a servant of the minister, so if there was no sudden slip of the tongue, it could only be a temporary replacement.
Zheng Ru glanced at another document on the case.
I probably understood something.
"No." Zheng Ru replied respectfully, "I'll take my leave."
Finished.
Zheng Ru retreated cautiously.
Not long after Zheng Ru left, the clerk came to report again.
Someone outside the official office asked to see him again.
But this time the person seeking to see him was Wang Ping.
Qin Luoheng raised his head and chuckled: "More than a month ago, I sent letters to the clans in the city, hoping to find one or two talents, but there were very few responses. Now I have been criticized by my father and even grounded for a month.
This has just come out, but people are coming one after another."
"Could it be that I was grounded for a month and turned the Secretary of State into a fragrant bun?"
