At the same time, he had also figured out where Yang Hongling had been going during this period of time. She had brought the disciples of the Saint Hall out to increase her combat experience, which was why she did not look for him.
After a while.
” You’re here, Senior Brother!” Duan Jiu stopped at the gate of the Fate Academy. He smiled with a mocking look in his eyes.
It was as if he was saying, ‘Big Sister has just returned, and you’re here.’
Zhang Ronghua laughed mockingly. He turned around and waved at the corner. Old Nine was sitting on a brick he had picked up. He was hugging a wooden rack filled with candied haws. He was napping. When he saw this scene, his sleepiness disappeared and he rushed over.” Young Master!” He handed the wooden rack over.
Zhang Ronghua took it and threw two taels of silver over.
Old Jiu was stunned. He looked at the silver in his hand with a suspicious expression. Did he give the wrong amount? Not fifty coins? “This is?”
“I’m happy today.”
“Thank you, Young Master! I wish Young Master and Young Lady Yang an early marriage and grow old together.”
He ran away quickly.
‘ No!” Duan Jiu took a step back when he saw his senior brother looking at him.
His smile disappeared and his face turned bitter.” No!”
“My salary isn’t much, but it’s enough to treat you to some candied haws,” Zhang Ronghua said seriously.
He took down two skewers and stuffed them into the wooden rack. Then, he turned around and left.
Puchi!
The surrounding disciples couldn’t help but laugh out loud. It was as if they had thought of something terrifying. In an instant, the smiles on their faces disappeared. They tensed up and looked ahead as if they didn’t see this scene.
He couldn’t hide.
Duan Jiu narrowed his eyes.” Junior Brothers, two skewers each. Don’t stand on ceremony.”
On the way, he met an old acquaintance. It was Mei Changshu.
She looked at the clothes he was wearing. He had changed again. There were two small golden words embroidered on his chest: ” Saint Hall.”
“He entered the Holy Church?” Zhang Ronghua asked.
“Yes.”
Mei Changshu was very happy. He didn’t expect to meet his senior brother as soon as he came back from outside.” Although the Saint Hall is tiring and dangerous, it’s very fast to improve your strength. There are also pills and martial arts. Eldest Senior Sister will personally guide you. If you’re not free, you can have the guidance of a great scholar. It’s much stronger than before.”
He could tell.
Compared to before, his strength had increased quite a bit.
Zhang Ronghua reminded,” When fighting with the enemy, be it a woman or a child, don’t be mesmerized by the illusion of appearance. Sometimes, what you see is not real. Don’t be soft-hearted, or you will be the one at a disadvantage.”
Mei Changshu felt the same way. This time, a disciple had been deceived by a woman. If his two senior brothers had not arrived in time, he would have been seriously injured and his body would have been cold.
After chatting for a while, they went to the forbidden area and entered the courtyard.
Beside the Spirit Lake.
Little Four was lying on the ground, taking a nap with his eyes closed. The old man was sitting on a stone bench, reading a book with great interest in his hand. He walked over.
He heard some movement.
” You’re here!” Xiao Si opened his eyes and hurriedly stood up.” Coming!”
” You’re right.” He walked up to them and circled around them. He clicked his tongue in wonder.” I haven’t seen you for a while. I’m impressed.”
“What do you have to say?” Zhang Ronghua asked with a smile.
Everyone in the capital city knows Zhang Qinglin. He’s famous among the nobles. Creating new products is like drinking water. You can solve the problems that others can’t do with their best efforts. You’ve helped the entire department take off.”
Bang!
Zhang Ronghua reached out and knocked a chestnut on its head. He glared at it.
“Greetings, Headmaster!”
The old man put down his book and pointed at the stone bench opposite him.
” I heard you were coming over,” Hong Ling said, as if she had guessed what he was going to ask.” I specially picked some of your favorite dishes and went to the kitchen.”
Zhang Ronghua smiled.
“I heard that someone saw that you have made too many contributions and secretly prepared some tricks?”
“It’s not a good thing to be in the limelight.”
The old man stroked his beard.” You see it quite clearly. At such a young age, you’re about to become a third rank official. It’s rare in history. You’ve set a precedent. ”
Zhang Ronghua’s expression was serious. He didn’t hide anything.” In this position, I don’t think too much. I just want to do something so that the soldiers on the front line can die less and be able to return home alive to reunite with their families.”
“What if I continue to stay in this position?”
“Someone has to stand up and take on everything.”
The old teacher’s smile grew wider and he was very satisfied. Every time they met, he could bring him some surprises. He had principles and a bottom line. He would rather fill the hatred of all parties in order to seek benefits for the people. He had not misjudged him.
“Although the Ministry of Works is important, the other positions are not bad.
As long as you are in the officialdom, you can work for the people below.”
Zhang Ronghua pointed in the direction of the palace, implying that His Majesty had asked him to speak.
The old man shook his head.” This afternoon, His Majesty asked me to have tea and mentioned you. He casually said a few words. I believe that my judgment

is not wrong. Even if you have developed a lot of things, when the Ministry of Works produces them and sends them to the soldiers at the front line, they will leave a heavy mark after they use them. I will not be suspicious.”
It seemed that his guess was wrong. There were many powers involved in this matter, and it was also more complicated. That was why the Xia Emperor had relented and given up on increasing the strength of the Grand Xia Dynasty, in order to take more territory from the Shang Dynasty.
Haste does not eat hot tofu. Some things could not be done overnight. There had to be a process.
“Which department?” Zhang Ronghua asked.
” 10% to 20% will remain in the Ministry of Works, and 70% to 80% will be transferred to other departments..”
