Chapter 193: Whose job is done (2)

"Whose job will be done, hum!" The emperor threw the letter on the imperial desk, and the paper slid down the table to the ground.

Eunuch Li hurried over to pick it up, and heard the emperor "talking to himself" again: "I should do the work caused by the 'Eight Winds'?!"

Eunuch Li broke out in a cold sweat: He was right in front of the emperor's eyes, should he answer the call or not? Besides, you are the emperor, and who cares about the trouble caused by God? As a son, who cares?

*****************

"Whose work should be done!" Chu Qing was teaching Qiu Sheng: "Nothing that should be done should be done less, and nothing that should not be done should be done; those who are capable must be rewarded for the extra work;

You arrange those prisoners to teach. It seems that these people have no other skills except having a good tongue. This arrangement is correct;

However, supervision must be done well. Since they are allowed to teach and run schools, they cannot poison students' minds, nor allow them to use students to do illegal things;

People who can become corrupt officials are smarter than businessmen, so beware of them exploiting the interests of the school and prevent them from colluding with each other;

Therefore, supervision must be strict, methods must be ruthless, and rewards and punishments must be clear;

Qiu Sheng, when you are an official, you have to manage people, and when you are an official, people are the most difficult to manage. You have to be smarter than them to be a good official."

Qiusheng is actually not a weak child, but there is a lot of compromise in his temperament.

When he was a child in a village school, he was obviously the eldest kid in the school, but he couldn't grab lunch from the kids younger than him. It was because he compromised because his mother was in a bad situation at home and he didn't want to cause trouble for her.

But when he and Xiaobao were studying together in the state school, he was uncompromising. When Xiaobao was bullied, he always rushed to the front to protect Xiaobao, and he was very responsible.

On the way to Yong'an Mansion, he always compromised because he knew that hunger can defeat human nature, so he tried his best to help the refugees maintain their crumbling humanity so that they could reach Yong'an Mansion safely.

The fundamental reason is that Qiu Sheng knew that there were not many people left in Yong'an Mansion, and that his aunt Chu Qing's fiefdom was here and needed a large number of people for construction and development.

Therefore, Qiu Sheng cherishes everyone and wants to bring them to Yong'an Mansion well and stay there.

If you want to retain people, you must naturally let them see hope, and try to appease them as much as possible.

It's just that refugees are the easiest to be incited, because they have nothing but their lives, so they will desperately grab any benefit related to them.

When they arrived at the recruitment office of Yong'an Government, they were not directly retained. For them, it violated the interests they wanted to seize desperately, which was their hope of continuing their lives.

Although the refugees did not obey the registration process because they did not trust the government and only trusted the Chu family, their behavior did lead to disorder.

But it was their interest to "stay in the Yong'an government", so they made trouble and indirectly incited trouble.

Qiu Sheng's "compromise" comes from his inner purity, which is difficult to compete with "compromise" based on self-interest.

Prisoners are sent here. Those who give up are usually those with weak backgrounds or those who have been abandoned by interest groups. Naturally, they live day by day and wait to die; but most people do not give up.

People who can become officials are those who have studied hard for more than ten or twenty years. They need academic qualifications and work experience. In an era like Daxuan, they are rare talents and there is hope for recovery.

.

For such people, being exiled here is also a "compromise" in order to make a comeback.

Qiu Sheng deals with such people every day, and needs to erect sharp thorns for his innocence and take good defense.

As Chu Qing, who had suffered countless losses, he hoped that Qiu Sheng could live a comfortable life, so he would give Qiu Sheng some tips every time he came over.

"Auntie is now able to be arrogant," Chu Qing ended his teaching with this beginning: "So as long as you feel something is wrong, regardless of the evidence, tell Auntie directly, and Auntie will help you deal with them."

Xiaobao looked at Chu Qing with a face full of joy, and his eyes were full of "I have a mother who will eventually grow up", which made Chu Qing dumbfounded: "What's that look in your eyes!"

This time I asked Qiu Sheng to come over because I had news about Zhang Erni that I wanted to tell him. I also wanted to come over to eat some good food and ask about any difficulties in work and life.

Qiu Sheng's family members have not arrived yet. They wrote before that it was because of seasickness that they had to switch from the water route to the land route, which would be slower. Now that they have definite news, Qiu Sheng must know it.

"Qiusheng, Auntie, I have two pieces of news here, one good and one bad. Which one should I listen to first?" Chu Qing asked.

Qiu Sheng: "Bad!"

Chu Qing just laughed, and so did Qiu Sheng and himself! Sugarcane is not sweet at both ends, and Chu Qing also likes it to be bitter first and then sweet.

Chu Qing: "Well, your mother and daughter-in-law won't be able to get to Yong'an Mansion for a few more days."

Qiu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then became a little anxious: "Why?"

Traveling far is the last thing people like to do in this era. The long journey is full of variables. If there is an accident, family members cannot be notified in time.

Xiaobao sat Qiusheng on the chair. Despite the ten-year age difference, Xiaobao is now as tall as Qiusheng: "This is good news. My sister-in-law has found out that she is pregnant!"

When the sea route was changed to the land route, I thought I was seasick at first and didn't ask a doctor to take a look. But when I changed the land route, Qiu Sheng's wife still vomited. Then she thought she might be unhappy, so she went to ask the doctor. She took a pulse and found that she was pregnant with two children. It's been months.

This is because I was used to being poor in the past, and I always regarded seeing a doctor as a big expense. If I had a minor illness or pain, I would just treat it as long as I could. Moreover, after giving birth to a child, my menstrual period was not accurate, so I didn't care.

Qiu Sheng was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear and didn't know where to put his hands. Having more children means you will be blessed. Pregnancy is a great joy. Then he complained: "Why didn't you ask a doctor earlier? I feel sorry for the money. I left a lot of money for them." !”

"I have already sent someone to pick her up from Chongyu Mansion. Take our carriage to protect her from earthquakes. My sister-in-law will be fine," Xiaobao comforted her.

The good chat was interrupted by Chu Zhuang's announcement: "Master, someone is here again, and they say they are Mr. Huang's family."

Chu Qing stood up immediately: "Take it to the front hall, I'll be there right away."

Xiaobao was a little nervous: "Why is it Grandpa Huang's family? Could it be that Grandpa Huang..."

Ordinarily, given Huang Zhong's temperament, if he were to come, he would come in person.

I haven't communicated with Huang Zhong, and now there is a sudden visitor from the Huang family. The old man is not young anymore. Could it be... Chu Qing thought and walked out quickly.

Seeing Mr. Yong'an striding into the front hall with a solemn look on his face, Huang Zhaoxian quickly stood up, his hands shaking with nervousness.

He didn't expect Mr. Yong'an to arrive so quickly. Also, was this a woman? Why did he feel so oppressed?

Xiaobao came in next. Xiaobao didn't even give Huang Zhaoxian a chance to salute. He asked directly: "Who are you? What is your relationship with Grandpa Huang? What happened to Grandpa Huang?"

It can be seen how worried Xiaobao is about Huang Zhong.
