Chen YingYuan was very angry and dissatisfied with Liu Yuanqiao's blocking the way to ask him for an official. When he was an official, he was so domineering and aggressive. Did he still have his boss in his eyes.
But after the other side offered the terms, he felt very attractive.
The other party is right. His disaster relief plan is really inseparable from the Liu family. If the Liu family doesn't want to cooperate with his actions, he has no choice but to delay and smash his plan.
The other is that the other party offered a good price. 100000 taels of silver should be the market price. In the so-called three-year Qing magistrate, 100000 snowflake silver. Laizhou's seat has just passed the war and the local people's livelihood has withered. Even if he has worked for three years, he may not be able to get 100000 taels of silver. Therefore, even if he puts this seat out, many people want this position from him, I don't think we can get such a price.
He has the spirit of scholar bureaucrats and the pride of the governor, but after the other party offered such good conditions, he also seemed a little hesitant.
As a person in officialdom, the first thing is to be pragmatic. Although yellow and white things are very vulgar, they are essential in officialdom. You can't get away from this thing if you ask for help from the above, and you can't win the relationship in the court.
It can be said that although Chen YingYuan was promoted from chief minister Zuo to governor in those years, he had enough qualifications and was popular, when he was pushing the court in the court, he still sent people to Beijing to send a large amount of silver, and then asked big people from all sides to say good words for him. It can be said that in these days, if there is no one in the court, no one will say good words for you.
Moreover, the current atmosphere is like this. All local officials send gifts to Beijing. Only when you send the gifts, will others know that you are the number one person and say good words for you.
In this way, no matter who is an official, if he doesn't have money, he can't be an official. If he doesn't do well, he can't get along easily. Therefore, after the other party makes such a good price, he immediately forgives the other party's arrogance and aggression.
Because Chen YingYuan knows one thing, that is, the governor of Laizhou is dead. As the governor of Denglai, he can appoint the governor. However, if he gives up the appointment and no one can be appointed, the Shandong chief envoy and the imperial court may send someone to support him and recommend talents to take over the vacancy. Therefore, he must appoint someone first, He will appoint a new candidate among his confidants to the post of governor of Laizhou, but he can believe that among the people he appreciates and appoints, it is impossible to offer better conditions than the Liu family.
Of course, if he appoints a candidate with insufficient qualifications and reputation, he will also be rejected by the above.
And another point is that if he is too hesitant and decisive, if the Shandong chief envoy department or the Ministry of officials sends someone to come, he will be beaten. It is estimated that the benefits will fall to whoever arranges people to sit up.
Moreover, Liu Yuanqiao also made it clear that if he did not benefit him, he would not stand on his side of Chen YingYuan. In this case, he thought for a moment and said, "deal“
Chen YingYuan, who has been an official for more than 20 years, can be said to have become a veteran of officialdom. He knows all the hidden rules and clear rules in officialdom. Otherwise, he can't get to this point. Moreover, when he has no backers in the court, he can still insist on doing it. First, when he is an official, he has to learn to compromise. Second, he will learn to avoid good and evil The third is to make money. If he can't learn these things, he can't be an official, so when he saw the benefits, he immediately agreed.
Chen YingYuan suddenly thought of something. He said, "I also heard some rumors that Zhu Dadian wanted to promote you to the leader of the sixth grade, but finally the household department stuck and had to treat you with courtesy. This should be your handwriting, Lord Liu."
Liu Yuanqiao said: "after all, our Liu family has also risen here in Shandong for decades. So many people rely on my Liu family for dinner, so our Liu family's rights and interests must be respected."
Chen YingYuan couldn't help but be secretly surprised. This man was so powerful and scheming. It was estimated that when he was promoted, he might have thought of today, so he raised his level first, and then made a real lack. Suddenly, he had a terrible idea in his heart. Ma Dongfan suddenly died in the wind. Would it have anything to do with him Off.
Chen YingYuan was surprised when he thought of this place. If the other party is really so crazy and unscrupulous, let him sit as the magistrate. He is the richest man in the place. Who can control power and wealth? If someone else sits in this position, Chen YingYuan can certainly control it. If Liu Yuanshan sits in this position, he is probably out of control, Their Liu family is in Laizhou. They have too much power. They are the local snake. If they let him sit in the magistrate again, it will be even more powerful and lawless.
Originally, Chen YingYuan wanted to ask the other party, but he suddenly thought of a terrible thing, that is, now it seems to be in the wilderness. He has only about 100 people, while the other party has more than 200 elite knights. If the two sides fall out, they have a bad intention. What if he suddenly attacks himself? When he thought of this, he said something to his lips, He still gathered back. Now he understands why the other party stopped him here. It is estimated that Chen YingYuan has this idea. Chen YingYuan is not cold and afraid.
However, Chen Dingyuan didn't ask Liu Yuanqiao, but he took the initiative to say, "did your excellency think Ma Dongfan was killed by a lower official?"
Chen YingYuan gave him a dry smile. He said, "Ma Dongfan, he is old and disrespectful. As an official, it's not strange that he flirts all day and dies in a woman's belly."
Liu Yuanqiao gave him a cold smile. He said: "in fact, many people are laughing at Ma, but the lower official thinks he died for value. After all, he also played with so many women. It's the so-called death under the peony flower. Being a ghost is also romantic."
Chen YingYuan couldn't hold back his doubts. He was thinking that the other party would take the initiative to mention it. At least he would explain it. Now he doesn't even explain it. Did he really do it? If he did it and had the courage to murder the four rank officials of the imperial court, how could he stand idly by as governor?
The other party deliberately mentioned it and didn't say it. What's the purpose? Show off or demonstration?
After the two sides reached an agreement, Liu Yuanqiao said, "excuse me, sir, where can I send the silver?"
This sentence revived Chen YingYuan. That is, everything is false, and money is true. Ma died in such a shameful way. He took the lead for Ma for fear that he would be covered with shit and have a bad reputation.
Moreover, by Liu Yuanqiao's means, he dares to come here to ask for an official. If he doesn't give it, it is estimated that he will move the 100000 silver to the imperial court. Someone in the imperial court will speak to him. It can be said that he can take out so much money. This position is almost in his pocket. Why should he be cheap now?
Chen YingYuan said to him, "send it to your family?"
These days, the amount of silver is large and heavy. One hundred thousand taels have to be selected by 100 people. There are also 20 carts with 500 kilograms per cart.
Liu Yuanqiao said to him, "according to the rules, I will send someone to send 50000 to your house first, and then pay 50000 after it is done."
Chen YingYuan said to him, "the name of Lord Liu's octahedral Buddha is indeed worthy of its reputation. In a short period of cultivation, it was promoted from seven grades to four grades, which is rare in officialdom."
Liu Yuanqiao said, "it's good for Lord Chen. You know, in fact, Xiaguan and Wen Tiren don't deal with each other."
When Liu Yuanqiao said this, he actually made Chen YingYuan happy again. After all, the Manchu court knew that he and Wen Tiren were not dealing with each other, and he was also oppressed by each other. If the officials under his rule were one with him and not dealing with the chief auxiliary, it would be good for him and on the same front, not so sad.
Now that they have reached an agreement, they will immediately change their way to live in Yexian County.
More than 300 of them went to Yexian County.
Although Chen YingYuan said that he was the governor of Denglai, he was far inferior to Liu Yuanqiao.
Liu Yuanqiao now has more than 200 Knights around him. When he sees them, they all look like elite servants riding high horses and wearing good armour. The Liu family is rich and deserves its reputation.
Chen YingYuan was originally a man with backbone and tenacity. He himself was not so counselled. Liu Yuanqiao took out the money and he agreed. It was inevitable to make people laugh when it came out.
If he was in his post of Shandong chief envoy, he would never agree to the other party's coming like this, but since he came here as governor for more than half a year, his backbone is far from what it used to be.
When he was in this position, he was beset with internal and external difficulties. He could not do anything at all. Moreover, he also understood that he had not been in this position for a long time and was expected to be transferred soon. Those who were lucky were transferred, and those who were unlucky were directly dismissed. The most embarrassing thing was that the imperial court cancelled the post of governor.
So in this case, he held the idea of getting one vote if he could, and put the money and silver in his hand first.
As for whether letting Liu Yuanqiao sit in this position will feed the tiger and bring trouble to the rear governor and local control, this is not what he needs to consider. What he needs to consider now is his own affairs. His own affairs are not well controlled. Do he still consider others?
