"Very good, no arrogance or loss of self." Xiu Gongshen said with a smile. "You have to have a clear mind and a broad vision. When you look at problems, you have to stand taller to see further. Remember what I once taught you.
That sentence?"
Xiu Gongshen regarded Cheng Qianfan as his own son and worked tirelessly to teach him personally.
Cheng Qianfan thought for a while and replied, "As a human being, don't be greedy or jealous; in dealing with things, don't flatter or be arrogant."
"You need to remember." Xiu Gongshen patted Cheng Qianfan on the shoulder, "This is like climbing a ladder. Don't focus on the top step. The ladder you have to step on is the one you need to focus on.
"
Cheng Qianfan smiled bitterly in his heart. He was not too ambitious. It was you who was always talking.
He knew that Xiu Gongshen's addiction to "becoming a teacher" had come back again.
However, Cheng Qianfan still said respectfully, "My nephew remembers it."
This is Xiu Gongshen's love and education for him.
Only people who really care about you will take the trouble to tell you.
"Eat some fruit." Mistress He Xuelin came in with a fruit plate, took a look at it, and saw that her husband did not reprimand Cheng Qianfan, so she left with peace of mind.
…
The fruit plate contains peeled and sliced apples and two bananas.
Not to mention apples, bananas are mostly shipped to Shanghai by air. Just these two bananas are equivalent to several days of living expenses for an ordinary family of five.
"We want to promote you to take over Jin Kemu's position as the third patrol commander." Xiu Gongshen looked at Cheng Qianfan and said slowly, "I asked someone to release the news."
Holding a toothpick in his hand, he picked up a piece of apple in the fruit plate and was about to put it in his mouth when Cheng Qianfan looked stunned.
Xiu Gongshen said nothing, slowly ate the apple, and stared at Cheng Qianfan.
He believed that Cheng Qianfan would not disappoint him and that he, a student, could figure it out.
Cheng Qianfan naturally would not have such naive thoughts as "Xiu Gongshen is harming him". His first reaction was why did Xiu Gongshen do this? What benefits could this bring?
Cheng Qianfan was thinking about the conversation Xiu Gongshen had just had with him:
The ladder in front of me...
Suddenly, he had a feeling of enlightenment.
"Teacher, you are pretending to seek the position of inspector for me. In fact, you are secretly plotting against Chen Cang. Your target is the position of deputy inspector." Cheng Qianfan picked up a banana, peeled it off, and carefully skimmed off the white silk on the banana, and then
He handed the banana to Xiu Gongshen and said with bright eyes.
"It's not too stupid." Xiu Gongshen nodded happily. Despite what he said, he was actually extremely satisfied inside.
"I have communicated with Qin Detai. In two days, it will be announced that Ma Yishou will be promoted to inspector, and you will take over his position as deputy inspector." Xiu Gongshen continued, "Under the current circumstances, you will be the deputy inspector.
There will be relatively few voices of doubt."
Strictly speaking, Cheng Qianfan's promotion to deputy inspector was an exceptional promotion, which would cause criticism and dissatisfaction from many people.
However, after rumors for a long time that he would take up the post of inspector, it was finally confirmed that Cheng Qianfan would be promoted to deputy inspector. I believe that many people would feel that 'this... is not unacceptable'.
Mr. Zhou Shuren has a ‘window opening’ theory:
Chinese people's temperament is always eclectic and harmonious.
For example, if you say that this room is too dark and you need to open a window here, no one will allow it.
But if you advocate removing the roof, they will mediate and be willing to open the windows.
"Tomorrow you take the initiative to talk to Ma Yishou." Xiu Gongshen said.
"Qianfan understands." Cheng Qianfan and Xiu Gongshen looked at each other, and the two foxes, one big and one small, looked at each other and smiled.
This is to ask Cheng Qianfan to sell his horse and keep it for a while, which shows that he has no intention of taking up the post of inspector.
You need to have a complete show, and you can also publicly express your support for Ma Yishou as the inspector.
As for how to perform, Xiu Gongshen is not worried. In his words, Cheng Qianfan has been smart since he was a child.
The more Cheng Qianfan thought about it, the more he felt that Xiu Hushen's move was really a wonderful move.
Not only did it minimize the doubts that might arise from his appointment as deputy inspector.
I also sold Ma Yishou and it was good.
In addition, there is a very important point. Ma Yishou's ability is average, but Cheng Qianfan has a backstage and is also Ma Yishou's 'apprentice'. With Cheng Qianfan's ability, he can completely control Sanxun without anyone noticing.
The power is transferred to one's own hands.
As for Ma Yishou, given Ma Yishou's temperament, what he wants is face and money. As long as Cheng Qianfan gives Zu Ma Yishou face, in terms of financial benefits, Ma Yishou will get a lot, or even more.
Give some compensation.
In this way, Cheng Qianfan was very confident that Ma Yishou would not mind being 'seized' by such a disciple with a profound background.
…
Seeing Cheng Qianfan's admiring gaze, Xiu Gongshen's heart felt better than if he had eaten iced watermelon in the dog days of summer, "You kid, you can learn a lot."
"Yes, yes, yes." Cheng Qianfan helped Xiu Zhushen to beat his shoulders diligently, "The black ball tree grows red with age, and the lotus leaves grow with lotus leaves. With the teacher's wisdom and planning, Qianfan will have to learn all his life."
"Are you saying I'm old?" Xiu Gongshen feigned anger.
Cheng Qianfan smiled and felt a little sad when he saw the silver threads in Xiu Gongshen's hair.
Xiu Gongshen almost treated him as his own son, and taught Cheng Qianfan earnestly, with the same emotion as a father's teaching and love for his son.
The teacher-student, uncle-nephew relationship indeed has its own secrets.
However, leaving aside the position and the issue of principle:
This is almost a father and son.
"Qianfan."
"Teacher, please tell me."
"'The art of golden swordsmanship'."
Cheng Qianfan slowed down the strength in his hands and recited clearly in his mouth:
Gold and white jade, shining through the window at night.
The husband has not yet accomplished his fifty years of service, so he picks up the sword and takes care of Bahuang alone.
Jinghua makes friends with all kinds of wonderful people, and they live and die together in harmony with each other.
He is shameless and nameless in the annals of history for thousands of years, but he repays the emperor with a heart of loyalty.
When you came to join the army, you were in Hanbin, and Nanshan was covered with snow and jade.
Woohoo! Even though three households of Chu can destroy Qin, how can China be empty and deserted!
When the sound fell, he looked down and saw that Xiu Gongshen had fallen asleep.
Mistress He Xuelin walked over gently, holding a blanket in her hand.
"Master's wife." Cheng Qianfan said softly.
He Xuelin gently covered her husband with the blanket, looking at Xiu Gongshen with gentle eyes, full of love.
Arriving in the living room, Cheng Qianfan said goodbye to his wife and left.
He Xuelin looked at the young man submerged in the night outside the window, clasped her hands together, and whispered softly, "Sister Zhifu, your spirit in heaven must protect this child Qianfan."
…
Exit Masinan Road.
Cheng Qianfan did not hail a rickshaw immediately. He walked two blocks before hailing a rickshaw.
Xiafei Road, a safe house for housing wealthy people.
Hao Zai was guarding the door of the guest room, while Cheng Qianfan was busy inside.
Cheng Qianfan came out after finishing makeup.
"Haozi."
Hao Zai was inevitably surprised when he looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him.
Cheng Qianfan did not make up to look like Cheng Wufang.
Cheng Wufang's appearance should not appear again after he leaves Hangzhou unless there is special necessity.
He now wears a pair of small round glasses with black frames, his complexion is slightly sallow, he seems to be in poor health, and his appearance is quite ordinary.
Cheng Qianfan, who wears glasses, looks a little dull, and the look in his eyes is even more dull. This kind of student has been called a nerd since childhood.
"Bring the guy with you." Cheng Qianfan ordered in a low voice.
