Chapter 202 It is difficult for a new official to take office

.From the beginning and end. The hundreds of Jinyiweis, named Lao Hang, did not look at the door. After the convenience, they turned around and walked into the room. Wang Tong shook his head suddenly, took a step back and looked at the main gate, and then looked left and right. He turned around and stared at the guy leading the way and asked, "Is this the Jinyiweiser in Tianjin stationed?

This kind of slack look was not even a guard in front of the door during the day, but he was gambling all night. It was hard to believe that this was the Jinyiwei Qianhu.

The style of the Jinyiwei in the capital was already very relaxed. But the rules were still there. I thought I would see something different when I went to the place, but I didn’t expect it to reach this point.

The guy also saw that Wang Tong's face was not good. He replied carefully:

"The natives living in Zhangguantun, the villain, have been here for at least 120 years. How could the young one admit the wrong place?"

He had already received the reward, so he thought to get out of here quickly. The young master's face was so ugly that it was hard to guarantee that he would get angry on others. After saying that, he wanted to leave, but Wang Tong grabbed him and asked:

"Last night, seeing your shopkeeper first paying the money, are these people free to eat!?

The guy was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said with a grunt:

"It is common for the old men of the Jinyiwei to not give money or give less money. Later, all the families learned their lessons. Any old men of the Jinyiwei to take care of their business, but they would not be treated if they didn't give enough money.

After hearing this, Wang Tong's face became even more ugly. He waved his hand irritably, and the guy ran away as if he had been amnesty.

Wang Tong turned around in front of the door, with garbage everywhere, not to mention the pungent smell at the base of the wall. Tan Jiang, who was standing behind, saw Wang Tong's face look ugly. He couldn't help but step forward and said:

"The master has never visited the capital in the past few years. The young man has traveled so many places, but the yamen in the capital is a bit of a rule. The emperor has to take care of his face. The place is high and the emperor is far away. This is not uncommon.

Wang Tong shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"This yamen doesn't look like a yamen. Have you heard what that guy said just now? He doesn't even dare to force himself to eat and drink. If you don't do things well, you are a bit wild and arrogant. What is this now? This virtue is not as good as the wastes of the five cities of the capital!"

After saying that, he walked into the yard with a big strode. The few people who followed him looked at each other behind him, feeling quite amused and crying. They all shook their heads and followed.

The courtyard gate didn't even have a door panel, just a frame, which was really ugly. Wang Tong and his group walked up the steps while dodging the filthy things in the yard.

The front room looked pretty good, but I don’t know who got the broken bedding from the window, and there was also a dirty cotton curtain on the windshield door.

Standing outside the house, you can hear the shouts of shouting inside. Wang Tong frowned and opened the curtain. He opened the door. A pungent and unpleasant turbid smell suddenly surged out. Wang Tong almost vomited it out. He remembered that this smell was only available at the train station in winter when he was a child. After coming to this era without any pollution, he rarely experienced it.

"Damn it, close the door quickly, the cold wind is pouring in!"

With a scream inside, Wang Tong and the few people behind him walked in and closed the door.

From beginning to end, no one looked back to see who came in behind him. Under the illumination of several dim oil lamps, more than a dozen men in shabby flying fish uniforms gathered in front of the table, shaking their fists and shook them down.

Hearing, Ding, Ding Dang sounded, a man suddenly jumped up from the bench beside the table, laughing loudly

"I'm the biggest one, give me money, haha, I'm so lucky, I'll pull three-foot cloth for my wife today!!"

Only then did the Jinyiwei man who was in front of Wang Tong appeared in the group of people coming in, and whispered a few words with his eyes left and right. Everyone stood up.

It was almost a night of betting, and everyone was confused, and the light in the house was dim. Everyone rubbed their eyes and saw Wang Tong's Jinyiwei Qianhu's robe and uniform.

"You are the newly appointed Wang Nianhu, Lord Wang?"

Someone asked, but Wang Tong's originally gloomy face showed a smile and nodded in a gentle manner. Darkness also has the benefits of darkness. No one could see clearly Wang Tong's expression change, and everyone saw that the boss admitted his identity.

The people in the room stood up in a noisy manner, bowed unevenly, and shouted:

"I met Master Qianhu and kowtowed to Master Qianhu."

The voice was weak and there was no respect. After kowtowing, before Wang Tong could ask for it, the group of people stood up directly. Wang Tong became even more unhappy, but the smile on his face became heavier. He asked in a friendly manner:

"The rule of our personal army is to go back and rest on the 29th day of the 12th lunar month. Today is only 25th. Why are there so few people who have visited everywhere?"

Someone sneered at the time of his question. Sun Dahai Lihai, who was already angry behind him, was furious and was about to scold him. However, Wang Tong raised his hand to stop him and continued to say in a friendly manner:

"What? Is this official wrong?

The laughter stopped immediately, and several people looked at Chuan. It was a bad thing that the old Hangbu who was convenient to go out and bowed to report the report.

"Sir, this is a cold weather, brothers have nothing to do. They all went back to find some work to make the New Year."

"What if there is an errand? What should I find some work to celebrate the New Year? Is there no military pay?"

The Jinyiwei in the capital had military pay nine or ten times a year, and everyone had gray incomes at their own station, so life was barely acceptable. Wang Tong thought that this yamen in other places was not as good as the capital. He said that the Jinyiwei was extremely powerful outside and how could he be so miserable?

Someone moved the oil lamp forward a little, and saw clearly Wang Tong's appearance of the big kid. When he heard Wang Tong ask this question, some people could no longer help but look contemptuous on their faces.

But Hangbaihu forced a crying face and said sadly:

"Sir, we only had four military pay in the fifth year of Wanli. Who is not a member of the whole family? How can we live this life? Sir, you are here to take office. Let's give the accumulated military pay to the young people!"

Hearing the Hangzhou Baihu’s statement, the Jinyiwei around Tianjin all realized it and begged in unison:

"Please give up our military pay first!"

The oil lamps were insufficient, but Wang Tong had enough light to take their expressions into his eyes. Wang Tong sneered in his heart. But he asked:

"It's all about my brothers. I have to worry about it. I don't know how many brothers we have in Tianjin!"

A thousand households have a full member, but this is not a warrior. Whether there are military farming or not, and whether there are military farming and salary, the Jinyiwei is mostly dissatisfied with the corpses. Each thousand household has about four full households, and the rest are dissatisfied. Jitong originally thought that Tianjin would be different, so it would be better to ask about insurance first.

"To be honest, there are 245 people and three hundred households."

"So little!!"

Even though Wang Tong was relaxed well, he was still surprised when he heard this number. Sun Dahai behind him had already yelled out and said loudly:

"Damn it, even if you eat a vacancy, you can eat 50% of it, it will be considered a bad intention. You Tianjin can actually eat 75% of it, this."

"Brother, you have to be conscientious. Look at the clothes we are wearing, and then look at the big bet on the table. If you can eat the 75% of the empty amount, who will stay here!"

As soon as Sun Dahai finished speaking, someone retorted unconvincedly. Wang Tong reached out to stop the meaningless argument. He also saw the bets on the table. They were all copper coins, and there were not a few dollars of silver. The money that was rolled on the entire gambling table was ten taels long. In addition to the Hangzhou Baihu, Wang Tong also saw the other two Baihu. The reason why these two people did not see at first was because they were wrapped in a torn leather jacket and tied with a hemp rope around their waists, saying that they were as sloppy as they were.

Look at each one, the gambling was dark and the spirit was depressed. I guess I didn't want to sing a trick in front of me. When the few people there saw Wang Tong pondering, they thought that their crying was already effective. The Hangzhou Baihu clapped a few steps together and said with a smile:

"Sir, your new official is in office, and your brothers are waiting for the New Year. You might as well put down the money first, so that your brothers can do things steadily."

Taking your own money to the official’s food and salary is the most taboo thing, and no one will think of your good deeds. Wang Tong is not stupid, just smiled and shook his head and said:

"I have to go to the manager to discuss the matter of pay, and now I'm here to come down."

Seeing that Wang Tong was not involved in the trap, the leaders of the Jinyiwei in Tianjin were depressed and sat back listlessly. At this time, Wang Tong was still standing there. No one paid any attention to this behavior of supreme officials, but Wang Tong was not angry, but continued to ask:

"How did my ex-official Wang Damin fall off the horse?"

When he mentioned this name, the Hangbaihu spitted directly into the ground and cursed:

"This old guy is cruel to attack himself. He came to Tianjin Wei to work as a businessman, but he didn't get a penny and paid a lot of money. In July, I don't know where I was crazy and wanted to go to the canal boat to check. The bamboo carrying boats of those boats were knocked casually. As a result, he encountered a ship from Nanjing Shaojian and was beaten. When he returned here, he was caught by the military and Taoist yamen and beaten the board. He was completely wiped out on the ground. We are a group of young people. It is difficult to get through, and this is even less trouble. Now he fell down and returned to the capital, leaving us poor and angry.

"Mr. Wang, I listen to everyone's advice. If you have a way, you can take a job in another place, or go back to the capital, don't stay in Tianjin Wei."

Several people there sat down while talking, and someone actually grabbed Sanzi again. Even General Tan looked angry, but Wang Tong said kindly:

"Thank you for saying so much. Tomorrow at noon, I will be the host of Xingcai Inn outside the city. I will call all the brothers from thousands of households to recognize people, and secondly, I will ask everyone to help you in the future."
