Hearing the unheard words, Wu Yan looked at the master in surprise.
"It's just a symbolic metaphor." Gu Chen explained briefly. "For example, during a war, the guy who says 'Follow me' is the type who stays behind and calls his subordinates to charge into the battle. As for 'Follow me', that's
I just rush to the front and ask my subordinates to follow."
"I see, that's why they're called 'Come on me' and 'Come on me'... It's such an interesting metaphor."
Wu Yan nodded thoughtfully, with an interesting look in his one eye.
When the two armies confront each other, the commander-in-chief usually has to stay behind to strategize and command, so the metaphor is still somewhat different from the reality, but Wu Yan did grasp what the young man in front of him wanted to express - even though he doesn't like to be shouted around.
It feels like that, but if the person giving the orders takes the lead, then it is not impossible to accept the position of being ordered.
Wu Yan interpreted Gu Chen's words like this, and then he couldn't help but be stunned.
"If you want to arrange things for me, please work hard first!" As a subordinate, this is definitely an arrogant opinion that is extremely rude. Whether among the Wu family retainers or the government officials, Wu Yan has never encountered this.
I have never seen a person who dared to put himself on an equal footing with his lord.
Moreover, judging from Gu Chen's words, he didn't even recognize Wu Yan as his "lord", but only regarded him as his "superior".
He is only willing to regard Li Yang's female hero as an equal superior, and also requires the eldest daughter of the twelve princes' families to rush to the front beforehand!? Not to mention the people of Li Yang, I am afraid that no Chenghuang person would have such a bold idea.
.However, looking at the unwillingness on someone's face, it seems that there is nothing wrong with his opinion at all.
I don't know if he was affected by the attitude of that dignified declaration, but Wu Yan couldn't generate much anger. Rather, at least the "leading by example" was recognized by someone, which made the female hero somewhat happy, but she didn't show it.
Most talented people have tempers, and whether they can control them depends on the monarch's ability. It can be said that Liyang Mansion has gathered many good generals and talents who are loyal to the Wu family, but this is the first time that Wu Yan has encountered a person who dares to make such wild claims.
.
It is definitely not easy for a boss to control such a character. But just like a skilled swordsman encountering an unparalleled sharp demonic sword, even if he knows that it has the risk of backlash against the sword owner, he is so happy to see the hunter that he still can't help it.
I want to hold it in my hand.
"It seems that in addition to your talent for creation and extraordinary courage, Qing Gu is also outstanding in eloquence. Maybe it's really unfair to let you serve as the Juvenile Supervision Department." Looking at the demon sword in front of him, which was disguised as harmless to humans and animals, Wu Yan's expression
His eyes are bright.
"That's enough for the Juvenile Supervision Department, that's really enough." Gu Chen responded on the spot.
The heroine's unabashed greedy gaze made him subconsciously have the illusion that he was about to be swallowed up by a lioness. Although he proposed to be appointed as the Young Supervisor, in order to prevent him from being chewed to the bone by the ferocious female beast,
With nothing left, Gu Chen urgently left an excuse to escape.
"Well, the operation of Gewufang has just started. Fortunately, there are many affairs that need to be taken care of. In fact, there may not be much free time to deal with the affairs."
Compared with the official positions in the government, the workshop group is the capital of the master's livelihood. It is natural for the master to give priority to his own workshop group. It is not unreasonable for Gu Chen to use the Gewufang as a shield at this time. However, over there
The female headmaster seemed to have expected that he would say this, and nodded confidently.
"It doesn't matter. The Juvenile Supervisor Department is a practical position. It is difficult to handle the office affairs and consular affairs at the same time. Therefore, as usual, the consular office will send an auxiliary officer to assist in handling affairs. Of course, there is no need to pay a salary. It is considered a young supervisor.
Secretary’s welfare.”
"Assistant officer?" There is such an operation? Gu Chen was stunned.
"He is a very capable person, so look forward to it."
Seeing the subtle arc at the corner of Wu Yan's mouth, Gu Chen couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly felt like he had stepped on a pirate ship and was unable to get off.
……………………
Fangshi is the backbone of the people's livelihood, and they are also a group of people known for their willfulness. In this sense, even if they accept the appointment of the consul, they will regard the official position of the consul as more important than their own fang group, and there are hundreds of them.
Probably no one can be found.
For example, although Gu Chen is now regarded as the Young Supervisor hired by the Liyang government, his fundamental identity is still the owner of Gewufang, so it is natural to take care of his own fang's affairs first. He has not even settled the affairs of his own fang, but he is in a hurry.
If you interfere in consular affairs, the result will often be displeasing, and depending on the situation, you will be considered a fool who has been carried away by the desire for power, and may become a laughing stock in the public.
Although Gewufang is a micro-fang group with only three people, as the owner, Gu Chen still has to tell his followers about the important changes in his identity. On this day, in the guest room of the merchant house, Feiyan Xiaoyi and others gathered together.
, Gu Chen announced to everyone his intention to take up the post of Juvenile Supervision Department.
Compared to announcing his appointment as the Juvenile Supervision Department, Gu Chen spent more effort explaining how he accepted the appointment. Fortunately, after the explanation, Feiyan Xiaoyi showed a clear look on his face.
"If Brother Gu Chen becomes the Juvenile Supervisor, that means we will switch to eating royal food from now on!?"
"Isn't it great? This way, we can do more things for the common people and the country."
Xiao Yi, who was born as a refugee, seemed to be pleasantly surprised by taking office as a result of getting ahead. On the other hand, Fei Yan, who was born in one of the three major sword sects, was delighted to have the opportunity to serve the common people.
"Really? You don't object..." The reactions of the followers made Gu Chen sigh in relief.
"Specifically, will there be any changes in Gewufang in the future?" Feiyan asked, tilting her head.
"Well, in the future, in addition to our own affairs, we should also receive consular affairs from the consular office, right? But we won't know the specific situation until the auxiliary officers arrive." Gu Chen scratched his head and said.
"Auxiliary officer?"
"Huh? Will any high-ranking officials be sent here?"
Feiyan Xiaoyi couldn't help looking at each other after hearing this. Whether it was the Thunder Sword user or the Southern Barbarian refugee, in terms of status, both of them were essentially common people outside the territorial government system, so they had a natural sense of alienation and dislike for the bureaucrats. Besides, at present,
The relationship between the three people and the two monsters in Gewufang is harmonious and close, but suddenly the harsh appearance of the bureaucrats is added to it. Such a change is really hard to welcome.
In fact, Gu Chen didn't know much about the assistant officer. Unfortunately, Wu Yan didn't leave him a chance to refuse due to the atmosphere at that time, so he had no choice but to accept it.
"An assistant officer will come to visit in the near future, including the installation procedures. I will have a good talk with him." Gu Chen glanced at Feiyan Xiaoyi and said as if he wanted to bear everyone's uneasiness.
