In the second half of the afternoon, Dr. Zhao skipped work early as usual and was going to Jinfenglou to exercise his waist. I heard that Jinfenglou had specially imported some new Yinghuashouma from Yangzhou in order to compete with Xiaoxiangguan.
, I was already greedy. Just as I was about to leave the gate of Taicang, I saw Zhu Ping'an coming on horseback.
"Master Zhao, are you going out?"
Zhu Ping'an got off his horse and returned the salute with his hands. When he saw Doctor Zhao looking like he was about to go out, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"No, no, it's a routine check on the security situation in Taicang." Zhao Langzhong shook his head vigorously, denied it, and thought of an excuse in a hurry.
Hearing this, the light in Zhu Ping'an's dark eyes flashed away. He did not point out Mr. Zhao's lies that were full of loopholes, but curled up his lips and praised: "Master Zhao is strict in his duties and is really a role model for our generation."
"Haha, where, where." Zhao Langzhong smiled modestly and shook his head, with a very proud look on his face. He was proud of his own quick wit, and he had a deep feeling for an inexperienced rookie like Zhu Pingan, a veteran official like him.
A sense of superiority.
"Oh, by the way, didn't Zihou go to Xiyuan to deliver the memorial? Why did he come back so soon?" When he first saw Zhu Pingan, Zhao Langzhong had already thought about the memorial. He almost forgot about it when Zhu Pingan asked him just now.
, I suddenly thought about it again and couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Oh, that's it. After the document was handed to Wuyi Palace, because Taicang is related to the foundation of the country, it was quickly approved. The Ministry of Industry also quickly reported back, saying that skilled craftsmen were already working on the fine iron.
...However, if Mr. Li, the head of the household department who was on duty at Wuyidian, hadn't reminded me, I almost would have made a mistake. I didn't expect that there are many procedures and details involved in replacing the warehouse door. Please ask the Qintian Supervisor to select a date and test the good and bad feng shui. During the replacement, you need to ask
The treasury has been sealed with the Holy Seal of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and the seal can only be removed when the treasury door is to be replaced on a good and auspicious day selected by the Qin Tianjian. Only in this way can the treasury door be replaced."
"With Mr. Li's reminder, I quickly completed the procedures in Xiyuan, reported it to Qin Tian Jian, and asked for a seal from Si Li Jian. I was afraid of missing something, so I rushed back without stopping."
Zhu Pingan explained the cause and effect to Doctor Zhao, with a bit of fear in his expression and a look of happiness.
"Haha, Zihou is new here, so it's normal that he doesn't understand the process."
Doctor Zhao comforted Zhu Ping'an, but he felt a sense of relief in his heart. Let you take the credit and see if you make a fool of yourself. Haha, you deserve to make a fool of yourself.
Zhu Pingan touched the back of his head angrily and smiled sheepishly.
Seeing Zhu Ping'an in such embarrassment, Zhao Langzhong felt even more relieved. After thinking of the watermelon and peach theory mentioned by Secretary Zhang, Zhao Langzhong said with enthusiasm again: "Oh, by the way Zihou, don't we need to put a seal on it?"
?Fortunately, I had nothing to do, so I accompanied Zihou to report to Zhang Guanku first, and then went to the bank to put a seal. I was familiar with the people in the bank, so putting a seal on it was not as simple as anything.
.”
"This will trouble Mr. Zhao." Zhu Ping'an cupped his hands and thanked him.
"No trouble, no trouble, you see why you are so polite." Zhao Langzhong said with a smile.
After handing the horse to the Ku soldiers to take it to the stable, Zhu Ping'an and Zhao Langzhong went to Zhang Guan Kuna to inform him about the seal.
"The Heavenly Sage decreed yesterday that he should allocate 200,000 taels of silver to order Tao Tianshi to perform the ritual of calming the gods at Jianyuan Mountain in Wudang Mountain." Just this afternoon, the Ku soldiers had already completed the transportation of the 200,000 taels of silver and escorted it to the inner treasury.
In the short term, there will be no entry or exit of gold and silver in the bank, and sealing the door will not affect Taicang's normal public affairs. Since it is a necessary process and it is related to the safety of my Taicang, I, Taicang, will naturally give my full assistance." Guan Zhang
After hearing this, the warehouse understood and supported Zhu Pingan's work very much. He looked through the recent arrangements and said that he could put up a seal and close the warehouse door immediately.
"It is our duty to help replace the warehouse door. Zihou, Mr. Zhang just said that Zihou solved a safety hazard for us in Taicang, and he is a hero of our Taicang." Jia Langzhong said with a smile.
"Haha, congratulations to Mr. Zhu. He did such a big thing on the first day he came to Taicang. Mr. Zhu will become famous in the future, but don't forget our Taicang." Then several people laughed and said in a teasing tone.
Like Dr. Zhao, they felt relieved when they heard that Zhu Ping'an had made a fool of himself in Xiyuan. Let you take the credit, haha, you made a fool of yourself.
"Ahem, somewhere, Ping'an happened at the right time." Zhu Ping'an touched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.
When everyone saw this, they started teasing him again.
In short, everyone in Taicang unanimously supported the posting of seals and blocking the gold and silver warehouse.
They can still tell the difference between a watermelon garden and a small peach, which is more important. Since Zhu Pingan needs this small peach, just give it to him.
With united efforts, things will naturally be like what Mr. Zhao said, simple cannot be simpler.
Zhu Ping'an followed Langzhong Zhao, Langzhong Jia and his entourage to the bank and treasury again, summoned the officials and soldiers, announced the replacement of the treasury door, registered and made a register in accordance with the prescribed procedures, and then followed the usual practice of burning incense and offering sacrifices to heaven.
The treasury door was officially closed, seals were posted, and the treasury and bank vault were sealed.
You have to wait until the Ministry of Industry has cast the fine iron gate and the Qintian Supervisor has chosen a good and auspicious day before you can open the seal and replace the warehouse door.
During this period, unless there is an imperial edict, no one is allowed to open the treasury or bank vault. Violators will be punished with treason.
The reason for this is that the seal was signed by the Chief of Ceremonies with the golden seal of Emperor Jiajing, which is equivalent to an imperial edict. If you dare to disrespect the seal, you are disrespecting Emperor Jiajing. In ancient times, if you dared to disrespect the supreme ruler, you were "disrespectful".
A heinous crime.
As long as there is a seal on the warehouse door, the bank and the treasury are completely sealed, and even the treasurer of the Taicang Bank has no authority to open the seal.
Zhu Ping'an watched the seal being attached to the door of the warehouse, and narrowed his dark eyes, but it was like a bonfire burning in the slits of his eyes, sparkling with fireworks, and slightly twitching the corners of his lips, under the setting sun, he looked like a
A stupid fox with a silly smile.
"Haha, Zihou feels more at ease now. Now that the process has been completed, we are just waiting for the fine iron gate to be sent by the Ministry of Industry."
Doctor Zhao stepped forward and patted Zhu Pingan on the shoulder and said with a smile.
In his eyes, Zhu Ping'an squinted and smiled like an idiot, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart. This person named Zhu is really short-sighted. Isn't it just a small achievement of changing the family?
"The seal has been affixed. I'm glad that Zihou has eliminated a potential safety hazard for us in Taicang. We, Taicang, will be the host tonight. Firstly, we would like to thank Zihou for eliminating the hidden danger in our Taicang. Secondly, congratulations to Zihou for his first visit to Taicang."
Make meritorious deeds." Jia Langzhong smiled and invited Zhu Ping'an to stay for the dinner.
In response, Zhu Pingan declined due to family matters.
"Hehehe, Zihou is a newlywed, I understand, I understand."
Regarding Zhu Ping'an's reasons, Mr. Zhao winked and smiled with a wretched look on his face.
Hi, I understand.
You wretched man!
I was afraid that I might accidentally fall into the trap of you foxes and be corrupted by you, and Zhu Ping'an would slander me.
