Chapter 99: Investigate the Railway Administration!
The next day.
Qin Luoheng went to school as usual.
Before he even reached the school room, he was stopped by Gu.
Gu smiled and said:
"Qin Shizi, I went to the school yesterday and wanted to inform you that your request was agreed to by the engineer, but you were not in the school. At that time, I happened to hear someone saying that you were solving crimes in the prison, so I didn't go to the prison to disturb you.
.”
"I am here to inform you that I will stop by to register and record the size, dimensions and style of the ironware you want."
Qin Luoheng quickly returned the gift.
He also didn't expect that Gong Cao was so efficient. He only talked to Gu for a day, and Gong Cao gave a clear reply.
Qin Luoheng said:
"Excuse me, sir, I made one more trip."
"The ironware I want is actually a large iron pot. The style of the pot is similar to a common cauldron, and the size is actually similar. However, after making it, I hope to pour a layer of ointment on it."
"..."
Qin Luoheng stated his request.
Gu put the bookcase on the ground as a table and wrote it down carefully.
Finished memorizing.
Gu said in a deep voice: "The iron officials in Da Qin are in charge of it. The workers and Cao will have to wait until the iron officials approve it before they can collect their share of iron, so you may have to wait a few more days."
Qin Luoheng nodded.
He didn't mind waiting a few more days.
Then Gu verified the request with Qin Luoheng, and then put the bamboo fragments of records into the book case, and said relaxedly: "I wonder how Qin Shizi's case was solved yesterday?"
Qin Luoheng bowed and said:
"I was lucky, but the case was solved."
There was a hint of surprise in Gu's eyes.
Couldn't help but sigh:
"Qin Shizi is really versatile. Not only does he have ink-making skills, but he can also solve crimes. After graduating from the school, I'm afraid it won't take long for him to be promoted. By then, I may even call Qin Shizi a 'superior official'.
"
"But Qin Shizi listens to my words."
"Since you are a historian, you should still put your studies first and don't put the cart before the horse."
"There are always smart people in this world. Many people gained some false fame early on, and then fell into the glory of others, did not want to make progress, and finally fell into the crowd."
"I have watched Shi Zi go all the way. Even though I am a little amazed at Shi Zi's talent, I can't help but worry about whether Shi Zi can resist the glitz. In addition, this may be the last time I register for you. I am a little speechless for a moment. I hope
Qin Shizi, don't be offended."
Gu bowed to Qin Luoheng and bowed.
Qin Luoheng quickly moved away, not daring to accept this gift.
Then he bowed and said:
"Thank you for reminding me, sir. I will always be vigilant."
"I just heard what the superior said, this is the last registration. What does this mean?"
Gu smiled and said:
"Thanks to Zhang Cangzhu's favor, he transferred me from Hucao to the Yushi Mansion and appointed me as a 'Shangji Li'. Today is my last day in Hucao."
Qin Luoheng quickly congratulated: "Congratulations on your promotion."
Gu nodded and said:
"This is nothing."
"Although I have been transferred, it is the job of a Qin official to eat the emperor's salary and worry about the emperor. I do not deserve a word of congratulations. I still have work to hand over today, so I will not hang out with Qin Shizi."
Qin Luoheng also bowed to see him off.
Watching Gu go away, Qin Luoheng also felt a burst of emotion.
Since he obtained the household registration, he has basically had the most contact with Gu. This person is a very pure Qin official who does not involve personal emotions in his work and handles official business. Now that he has been promoted, he is also sincerely happy for him.
If Great Qin could have more Qin officials like Gu.
Why did the second generation die?
immediately.
He seemed to have remembered something, and a strange color appeared in his eyes.
He whispered:
"Zhang Cang, the historian under the pillar?"
"Is this the Zhang Cang I know?"
"I remember that in history, he was first the censor of the Qin Dynasty, and later became the prime minister of the Han Dynasty. Zhu Xia Shi seems to be under the rule of the censor's office, maybe he is really the same person."
Qin Luoheng shook his head.
He didn't think much about it. He was just a historian now, and there was still a long way to go with these historical figures. However, he was very sure that one day, sooner or later, he would meet the figures in these history books.
It may not be long!
Go to the school room.
Lang Hefen arrived early.
The two of them were surrounded by other historians, and they were enjoying themselves, stepping on the case table and talking loudly about how they solved the case yesterday, their brows brightening.
Lang's voice was loud.
As if he wanted everyone in the school to hear it.
Seeing Qin Luoheng arrive, Lang Hefen immediately got down from the case table, hugged Qin Luoheng in the middle, and said excitedly: "We only made a small contribution to the case yesterday, but Brother Qin is the one who is really powerful."
"Brother Qin's idea of solving the case is unique."
"Even the experienced wardens in the prison were amazed after hearing this. The warden will also submit Brother Qin's ideas for solving the case to the Tingwei Mansion, and let the wardens all over the country learn from it. If it really comes true, then Qin
My brother has become famous all over the country."
"Of course we will also take advantage of it."
"..."
Listening to Lang Hefen's compliments, Qin Luoheng could only smile awkwardly.
He said helplessly:
"It's just luck."
"It's far less exaggerated than what the two said."
"Since the three of us have accepted the case, we will naturally do our best. If we didn't really know how to solve the case, we wouldn't have made such a decision. We really can't live up to these false promises."
Shen Shun said:
"You can't say that."
"If it weren't for Brother Qin's resourcefulness, if it were an ordinary person, I wouldn't be able to solve the case in one day. This should be praised. Why should Brother Qin be so pushy? And as soon as I entered the school, I could see that Brother Qin was extraordinary.
generally."
"No one else has a clue about the word '狋' written by Ling Shi, but Brother Qin is the only one who speaks clearly. Brother Qin's erudition should be the best among us. This naming also rectifies the name of our Shizi.
"
"..."
Qin Luoheng was a little stunned when he heard Shen Shun's praise.
He still remembered Shen Shun's nostrils turned upward when he first came to the school, especially Shen Shun's ugly expression when he interpreted the word '狋' to overwhelm him. However, just how long had passed before Shen Shun actually took the initiative to praise him. Own?
Qin Luoheng was caught off guard.
But he didn't pay too much attention.
Everyone is 17 or 18 years old. It is inevitable that people with a little reputation will not think highly of them, and Shen Shun may be no exception.
This is also considered human nature.
Lang raised his eyebrows at Qin Luoheng, but his proud look was obvious. It was only thanks to their publicity that Shen Shun could be like this.
Qin Luoheng shook his head helplessly.
There are only two things that people pursue in life.
Fame or fortune!
As a Shizi, he solved a case that even the jailer could not solve in one day, and also provided the prison officials with many ways to solve the case, which naturally made people look up to him and praise him.
But in Qin Luoheng's view, these are just minor achievements.
Not worth mentioning at all.
The historians praised them for a while and asked about the rewards they had received.
Fen also had no intention of hiding anything.
He said it on the spot.
"Bearing me!"
"A noble title?" All the historians were shocked when they heard this.
Fen excitedly said:
"You heard that right."
"The reward the three of us received was a knighthood."
"Lang and I are at a lower level, just one level of knighthood, with the title of Duke."
"Brother Qin is not like that."
"They are all rewarded with at least a second-level knighthood, and the title of knighthood is the highest."
"But the reward hasn't come yet, just because we are in Xianyang, otherwise our Lunjue would have come down long ago."
"I remember there was such a law."
"The work of discussing the title must be completed within three days, otherwise the county lieutenant responsible for the matter will be removed from his position."
"And according to the law."
"Gongshi, who are made at the upper level, are judged by the county official's office where they are from. Those who go up higher will report to the county. Of course, those above the rank of doctor must go to Xianyang."
"The situation in Xianyang is a bit special."
"In addition, Brother Qin may get the title of Hairpin, so the wait may be a little longer, but within three days, Fen and I will definitely receive the title. Maybe, it may be together with Brother Qin's reward."
"Anyway, it's just for these few days."
Speaking of which.
Fen also became happy.
He touched his head and saw the black cloth wrapped around his bun, which represented the identity of the first soldier in Guizhou. In a few days, this black cloth would be removed and replaced with a brown wrap.
They will officially become civil servants.
Although in Xianyang, there are so many public servants wearing brown cloths on their heads, but in this classroom where all the students are wearing black cloths, the three of them undoubtedly stand out from the crowd.
nature.
It will also get many envious looks from Shizi.
Lang didn't care about the piece of cloth on his head. Although the Qin Dynasty had a clear hierarchy and each title had its own unique mark, what he cared more about was the land.
after all.
He is from another county.
According to the law, after they obtain the title, they must immediately go to Hucao to get a new certificate. On the new certificate, their status will change from a scholar to a public official.
at the same time.
You will also get a hectare of farmland and a house.
That is to say, one hundred acres of land and a thirty-foot-square homestead were obtained.
If you are lucky, the government will assign a servant to help plow the fields.
This is a real benefit.
But that's all.
In the Qin Dynasty, there was not much difference between Gongshi and Guizhou. If you accidentally broke the law, you would still be punished as you should. The sentence would not be reduced, but it was different if the title was Shangzhi or above. In that case, you could really pay for the crime with a title.
, to reduce the culpability.
After returning home last night, he told Aweng about his knighthood, but Aweng didn't pay too much attention to it. He just told him to study hard and if there is a chance in the future, he can upgrade his title to a higher rank as soon as possible, so that he can be considered a master in the future.
Wherever you go, there are multiple layers of protection.
He was also asking for trouble.
After listening to Lang Hefen's words, Qin Luoheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
He suddenly remembered.
What should I do if I get a piece of land? Do I really want to build a house and move my residence out of Lishan?
How to prepare these 100 acres of land?
Think about it.
It's time for class.
Everyone returned to their positions.
Ling Shi Ku entered the room, he glanced at Qin Luoheng incomprehensibly, and then hung the board full of words on the wall as usual and started teaching.
Qin Luoheng also quickly recovered his mind.
Start listening to the class carefully.
While Qin Luoheng was listening attentively to the lecture, Gu also sent the bamboo piece recording Qin Luoheng's iron requirements to the Iron Office.
After these pieces of bamboo were carefully inspected by the clerk of the Iron Office, they were re-registered on another bamboo slip and sent to the case of Zheng Xuan, the Iron Official Cheng, waiting for review and approval for the issuance of iron stones.
at the same time.
Supervisor Shi obtained an order.
