Zhang Zhijie couldn't help but glance at Dong Chang with some surprise when he heard this, didn't he say that Dong Chang was not good at flattery? Isn't that also a sycophant?

If Dong Chang knew what the Admiral thought, he would definitely sigh, as the saying goes, a dog will jump off the wall when he is in a hurry! Now Dong Chang is in a hurry, he not only took his subordinates to clean the future Yuanyi, but also prepared the maid very considerately.

But Dong Chang has no power and no power in Quanzhou, he is just an inconspicuous five-grade official, and he is from a poor family, how can he find a maid for the Admiral?

After Dong Chang scratched his ears and cheeks, he sent out the only few maids in his family, even this was too shabby, Dong Chang encouraged himself and even sent out his concubine dressed as a maid!

Even if this is not enough, Dong Chang launched his subordinates in desperation. The officials of the City Ship Division have also had a hard time guarding the City Ship Division's Qingshui Yamen, but seeing that the Lord Tiju has even contributed his own concubine, he has nothing to say, and this is also an excellent opportunity!

Therefore, the officials of the city department got together up and down, and those who had maids at home came out of the maids, and those who didn't have maids were all sent out! I don't know what they have in mind.

So Laiyuanyi finally became Yingying Yanyan is not so deserted, Zhang Zhijie was really taken aback when he came to Yuanyi, not surprised by the magnificence of Yuanyi. After all, it is just a post station to receive small countries outside the domain, although it is built well to show the bearing of a great country, but it is much worse than the mansion in the capital!

Zhang Zhijie was surprised that there were so many maids here, Zhang Zhijie already knew a lot about the Quanzhou City Ship Division, how could the City Ship Division have the money to invite so many maids to come?

But Quanzhou has Jinyiwei stationed, and the city has made a lot of noise in order to get together these maids, so Jinyiwei naturally knows. Zhang Zhijie couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this, what kind of concubine, daughter, niece, sister, what kind of mess.

Besides, Zhang Zhijie didn't need any maids at all, because he went south with an all-powerful purple cloth! Ziyi is really all-round, making beds and stacking laundry and cooking, cutting people when you get on the horse, and warming the bed when you get off the horse.

So the first thing Zhang Zhijie said when he sat down in the hall was: "Dong Tiju, bring back all of you concubines, daughters, nieces, sisters and whatever!" Ben Du doesn't need a maid here! ”

Dong Chang was still a little happy in his heart, he prepared for the Admiral to come to the Yuanyi, and the Admiral accepted it happily, why did he suddenly turn his face when he came to the Yuanyi?

Dong Chang was startled in his heart, and quickly knelt down and said, "Lord Admiral, the lower officials did not force them to be embarrassed, they all volunteered!" Adults have worked hard all the way to come, and there should be a maid to serve tea and water to adults! ”

Before Zhang Zhijie could speak, Ziyi had already hummed: "You don't need them to serve tea and water, let's let them go back and forth from where!" "Ziyi went out of Beijing with Zhang Zhijie, and the most annoying thing was these officials who offered maids and beauties.

Dong Chang listened to this silver bell-like voice, and was surprised to realize that there was still a woman with the Admiral! It turned out that the Admiral left Beijing with a concubine!

Of course, Dong Chang didn't dare to say anything about this, but he finally gathered so many maids to curry favor with the Admiral, so he couldn't just fall short!

Dong Chang said with a smile: "My lord, this is a little bit of the intention of the lower officials, the adults open the sea in Quanzhou, benefiting all the people, they also want to do something for the Admiral, although they are a little rough, but they can also do it by sprinkling and sweeping the courtyard!" ”

Zhang Zhijie smiled and waved his hand: "Dong Tiju, let's take them back!" ”

Since the Admiral said this, Dong Chang didn't dare to say anything more, and he was a little frightened in his heart, so he resignedly!

Zhang Zhijie looked at the face that was barely squeezing out a smile, and said with a smile: "Dong Tiju, before this governor came to Quanzhou, he already had a general understanding of the city's shipping division!" So you don't have to work on these tricks, Ben doesn't care about that! ”

"What the governor cares about most is that he can open the sea smoothly! What the Governor cares about is the ability of the officials! ”

Dong Chang not only did not relax when he heard this, but he was a little discouraged, he had been in the city for seven years, and there was nothing to do, even if he wanted to show his ability, he couldn't show it.

Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "Dong Tiju, if you open the sea in Quanzhou, what do you think is the most important thing to do a good job in this city?" ”

Dong Chang smiled when he heard this: "Strictly follow the orders of the adults!" ”

Zhang Zhijie smiled and said slowly: "Honest, fair, not afraid of power!" Once the imperial court opens the sea, the city of Shimizu Yamen, which was originally Qingshui Yamen, will suddenly become a sea of gold and silver, if you are not honest, you will be drowned in this sea of gold and silver! ”

"Fairness, the goods going to sea are inspected by the city shipping department, and the city shipping department has the final say on how much tax and silver should be paid, so it must be fair!"

"Not afraid of power, once the sea is opened, the wealthy giants will inevitably flock to it, and even the dignitaries in the capital will come in! Some people will inevitably want to use their power to suppress others and pay less taxes! So be sure not to be afraid of power! ”

After Zhang Zhijie finished speaking, he looked at Dong Chang with a contemplative look on his face, and said with a smile: "Dong Tiju, what do you think of what this governor said?" ”

Dong Chang bowed down and said: "What the Admiral said is really every word, and it makes the officials suddenly open!" ”

Zhang Zhijie smiled and said: "This governor heard that Dong Tiju's family is full of people, and the threshold is about to be broken!" Is there such a thing? ”

Dong Chang heard that the cold sweat was about to fall, and he quickly knelt down and said: "Lord Admiral, since the news that the imperial court is going to open the sea in Quanzhou, many people have come to the door, but the lower officials have not received any gifts!" Please also have a good understanding! ”

What Dong Chang said is not a lie, his family is indeed full of people these days, and there are a lot of door-to-door gifts, and he was very greedy at first, but after some psychological struggle, Dong Qichang really confiscated the gifts. Because he himself doesn't know if he can sit on the seat he is lifting, how can he receive any gifts?

Zhang Zhijie smiled when he heard this: "This governor naturally knows that if you accept gifts in a big way, then this governor will not tell you this!" ”

Dong Chang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and Zhang Zhijie then smiled: "It's just that you have to know that there are still few people who give you gifts now, if the imperial court opens the sea, I don't know how many people will give gifts to the city at that time!" ”

"Actually, the Governor still admires you very much, if you continue to sit on the promotion of the city's shipper, can you still do the same as now, do not accept gifts?"
