Chapter 324

Zhang Xiu's face was full of praise, and said: "you have the ability. I promise you to be a general. What do you think?"

"The villain will!"

Zhou Fu didn't even think about it. He answered directly.

As a person who doesn't know big words, it's his blessing to be a partial general, but it can be said that his ancestors are smoking. Put it on him, it's something I dare not even think about.

Unexpectedly, he became an official.

As soon as Zhang Xiu's words changed, she asked, "did you come to Chang'an and raise pigs?"

"Yes

When Zhou Fu thought of Zhang Xiu's esteem, he held his head high and said, "when I was in Yuyang County, I raised two pigs, each of which had more than 150 Jin."

"I thought at that time, it's a pity to kill him."

"So when we moved to Chang'an, the two pigs raised by the villain were all loaded in prison cars and transported to Chang'an."

Zhou Fu said: "I killed a pig a few days ago. Now there is a pig in Lilliputian's house."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh and asked, "from Yuyang county to Chang'an, you are still a talented person. For this reason, are you often ridiculed and gossiped? "

Zhou Fu felt embarrassed when he heard the speech.

It's certain to be gossiped, but he's used to it all these years. He doesn't care about other people's gossip.

Zhang Xiu asked, "how much of the pork you killed before is left?"

"It's gone!"

Zhou Fu shook his head and said, "it's June now. It's hot and the meat is not stored long. Once it's put away for a long time, it's easy to break. So after killing the pig, the villain on the one hand sent some old things and on the other hand sent them to his family. "

"Today, we consume a lot of pork every day."

"The villain originally planned to kill the pig when he went back today. After the villain arrived in Chang'an, he bought five piglets, all of which have been castrated. None of them lost. They all survived. "

Zhou Fu confidently said: "every other half year or so, you can eat fresh pork again."

Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, you should go back to kill pigs now. It will be of great use to clean up the pork and send it to the general's house. "

"Yes

Zhou Fu responded with a smile.

He was very happy to think that he was a butcher and cook, and that he was respected.

Most of all, it has been recognized.

Zhou Fu's pigs have been castrated, but even so, no one recognized him. Even he sells pork, but not many people buy it. In these days, it's the poor who eat pork. After all, pork is not elegant, and it's too smelly.

Unexpectedly, he got Zhang Xiu's approval, the joy in the heart can be imagined.

"Go

Zhang Xiu waved her hand.

"The villain is leaving!"

Zhou Fu bowed and bowed, then turned back. But when he came to the gate, suddenly, Zhang Xiu's voice came from behind: "wait a minute!"

Hearing this, Zhou Fu turned quickly.

Looking at Zhang Xiu, Zhou Fu's face was still a little uneasy.

Are you going to change your mind?

Zhou Fu now some like in the cloud, always feel insecure. After all, he is a butcher who kills pigs and a cook who can order dishes. It's not suitable for him to be an official.

Zhou Fu looked at Zhang Xiu with a worried look.

Zhang Xiu asked her servant girl to go to Huang Yueying's study and get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. She immediately wrote an appointment and handed it to Zhou Fu: "go to Xu Shu and let him register and put your official position into practice."

"Yes, general Xie."

Zhou Fu's heart hanging in mid air was completely steadfast.

At this moment, Zhou Fu was full of joy.

Zhou Fu, with Zhang Xiu's letter of appointment, soon came to the office where Xu Shu's official department was located. Zhou Fu was a cook in his family. He often went to and from the general's house. Although he was a little timid in the face of Zhang Xiu, he was full of energy when he went outside the official department.

Now, he is also an official.

Even if Zhou Fu's clothes are greasy and even obese, he has no inferiority complex. On the contrary, he is happy. After Zhou Fu knocked on the door, he entered the hall and saw Xu Shu.

He had no fear in front of Xu Shu. After all, he had sent meals to Xu Shu several times, and he had known Xu Shu for a long time.

Zhou Fu saluted and said, "Xu Shangshu, I'm here at the command of General Zhang. This is general Zhang's order. Please register and go through the process. "

With that, Zhou Fu handed the letter of appointment written by Zhang Xiu.

Xu Shu took it over and took a look. He was suddenly scorched by thunder, and his face was full of surprise. He looked up at Zhou Fu and asked, "are you related to General Zhang?"

"No!"

Zhou Fu replied, shaking his head.

He is an ordinary cook, no background, not a relative of Zhang Xiu. If he is really a relative of Zhang Xiu, he can't be a cook.Xu Shu asked again: "do you have the grace of saving lives for general Zhang?"

"No!"

Zhou Fu replied again.

At this moment, Zhou Fu was a little confused. Did Xu Shu not pass?

Thinking of this, Zhou Fu solemnly said, "Xu Shangshu, we also know each other. Anyway, I've been to the Ministry several times. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't ask about it. It makes me feel bad. "

Xu Shu asked two questions in succession, but he was eccentric.

He didn't understand why Zhang Xiu did it for Zhou Fuguan? In particular, Zhang Xiu's appointment was a bit strange. He appointed Zhou Fu as a partial general to be responsible for the castration of piglets and the feeding of fattening pigs, which shocked Xu Shu even more.

What kind of general is this?

Is that general pig?

Xu Shu is a scholar with the character of a scholar. Even though he knew that it was Zhang Xiu's order, he didn't plan to arrange it directly, because if he didn't understand the matter, he would not agree.

Although, he is Zhang Xiu's minister.

But there is something wrong with the Lord. He must put it forward. Zhang Xiu can't be allowed to act recklessly.

Xu Shu took a deep breath. He had a plan in his heart, so he said, "Zhou Fu, please wait here for a while. I'll go to see my Lord and ask about his arrangement. "

"No problem!"

Zhou Fu agreed directly.

In his heart, he began to feel uneasy again. Zhang Xiu appointed him as a partial general, and Zhou Fu was very happy. However, as a butcher and cook, Zhou Fu didn't know a big word, but in fact, he also knew how to observe words and colors, and knew more about the importance of Xu Shu under Zhang Xiu's command. Xu Shu was the first person to follow Zhang Xiu.

This is not to be provoked.

Xu Shu took Zhang Xiu's order and got up to walk outside the official department. But when he came out of the yard, he suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the Ministry of war and the Ministry of punishment not far away.

The Ministry of war is dominated by Jia Xu.

The Ministry of punishment is dominated by Li Ru.

Both are talented and persuasive. Xu Shu thought that if he went to lobby Zhang Xiu alone, he might not be able to persuade Zhang Xiu, so he made a special trip to the Ministry of war and soon met Jia Xu.

Today's Ministry of war is busy with business.

After all, there are many things to be done to approve many awards and pensions. After all the awards are approved, they will be handed over to the Ministry of accounts for the allocation of money. This is fine work and should not be sloppy.

However, Jia Xu's handling is quite easy. Because his affairs are mainly in the charge of the people below, but Jia Xu doesn't have much to do.

When Xu Shu saw Jia Xu, he didn't procrastinate. He told Zhang Xiu about Zhou Fu's arrangement directly, and then said, "the arrangement given by the Lord to Zhou Fu is ridiculous. When it comes to official positions, how can they be allowed to others easily? I don't agree with that. Jia Shangshu, what do you think of this? "

After hearing this, Jia Xu pondered over it and asked, "Xu Shangshu, you and I both know the master's character. We have always been cautious and careful. Will this arrangement have deep meaning?"

"Deep meaning?"

Xu Shu was a little angry and said, "what's the meaning? Just a butcher, cook, what qualifications as a partial general? I don't agree with it. Since I am loyal to my Lord, I should plan for him and correct for him. Now, my Lord, I will correct my mistakes. "

Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and thought carefully.

Xu Shu said: "Jia Shangshu, what do you think? Don't dawdle

"I don't understand why," Jia said

Xu Shu said: "do you want to understand, I also don't want to understand. This matter must be explained to the Lord. If this matter is not handled properly, I am not convinced. "
