Chapter 36
As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the Second Head convened a safety work meeting with various escorts. At the meeting, the Second Head said that our escort agency had achieved remarkable results in the first half of the year and made important breakthroughs in various businesses, especially the breakthrough in the business of Shandong Road, which made our escort agency famous in the Central Plains region. The Central Plains escort agency has been vaguely listed as the five major escort agencies with the other four escort agencies. At the same time, it was required that all escorts should attach great importance to safety and protection, do a good job in three defenses and one escorts to avoid various safety hazards caused by escorts. At the same time, the Second Head asked everyone to strictly implement the eight regulations of the court, implement the three strictness and three realities of the court, strictly prohibit giving gifts in the Mid-Autumn Festival, visiting and making connections, etc., and then asked the logistics department to organize the meeting minutes of the escort agency to issue a study.
At the end of the meeting, the second in command held another small-scale meeting. Our group was attended by Heifengzhai. Do the court's rules and regulations have to be abide by, but our escort agency must leave the relationship that should be left. Each group has 50 taels of silver as public relations expenses, and must be used in practice and on the edge. The relationship that should be left must be left, and the relationship that should be visited must not be left behind.
If it was Teacher Yang, the fifty taels of silver would be fine. According to the Dragon Boat Festival customs, 50 taels of silver, Teacher Yang 30 taels, and the four of us 20 taels to visit all kinds of gods. Of course, we didn’t know how Teacher Yang visited, and the final ticket was made quite beautifully.
Shortly after Heifengzhai took office, he asked me to discuss how to spend 50 taels of silver. I said you are the leader and I will do it myself. Heifengzhai had just taken office and dared not distribute it, so he held a meeting to discuss it.
Heifengzhai said that the six gates are our direct regulatory department. This wharf must be paid by the wharf, but only fifty taels of silver, which is probably a big deal to say to the doorman. Jinyiwei, let alone the fifty taels of silver are probably not enough to measure the cost of drinking tea. After discussing for a long time, the last fifty taels were used to pay 20 taels of silver to the Daming Urban Management, and then ten taels of silver were used for public relations. The remaining twenty taels were used as a small treasury of our group. Then Liu Qingfeng, did you pay for dinner with someone last time and you had not reimbursed the 120 cents you paid for? You find a ticket and post it to you. Last time I paid fifteen taels of silver with someone, and I also found some tickets to post the fee.
Liu Qingfeng muttered, "The last time you were promoted, you invited the second chief to drink wine. I spent 15 taels of silver, and you also need to report the bill. Heifeng Village laughed and said, "We are all brothers, I will go to the Zhuangyuan Building to drink wine for the extra money. So it was left alone."
As for the relationship between the Six Doors, you have a strong relationship with Brother Sanguan, so you should come and visit him. As for the Six Doors, if Mingjiao was there, she would ask her to go, but now she is gone, Brother Sanguan, you should come.
I was sweating coldly, and there were ten taels of silver in total. You asked me to visit Liusanmen and Jinyiwei. You are cheating me.
Heifengzhai said that those who are capable work harder. Brother Sangui, have you worked hard? Shandong Road has been opened, and there are many opportunities to make money in the future. You will feel aggrieved this time.
I said I don’t have money now, so you can lend it to me first. Heifengzhai said, “You pay it first, and I will sign the account for you when I go back. I cursed in my heart that my private money was taken away by the Ming Cult, so where can I get the money?” Heifengzhai said, “I believe you have a way, right, brother.”
So, with ten taels of silver, I wanted to visit Liushemen and Jinyiwei.
I discussed with Liu Qingfeng that ten taels of silver are half a year's salary for us. According to our previous inquiry with Min Qiuzhi, the salary in the yamen is not high on weekdays, but this Dragon Boat Festival, Spring Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival is the best time for those in the yamen to make the autumn wind. An ordinary minor official also earns at least fifty or sixty taels during a festival.
Liu Qingfeng said, "Why don't we wait until April Fools' Day to give it? That's what we said, "It's a few hundred taels," and the other party thought we were a kind joke. I knocked his head under his head, and gave it to us once when we came to our site for inspection last time. Can you bear it? The Persian Ming Cult is no longer there, you are itchy, right?"
Speaking of the Persian Ming Cult, Liu Qingfeng said that he missed her a lot. I don’t know if she would still be thinking about our brothers after returning to the Murong family, but that girl was really speechless. To be honest, do you have any ideas about her and do you like her?
I was silent. I said I had no idea that it was fake, but I was the number one beauty in the world. There were three blocks from the cafe to the square, and my relationship with her was like a distance from neon lights to the moon.
Liu Qingfeng said, brother, don’t be discouraged. Once I teased her and said it was Mr. Rabbit, which means that the teaching was interesting to you. It’s rare that she didn’t hit me. Otherwise, let’s not visit them, just go to the Murong family to propose marriage.
I said that if I want to marry the most beautiful woman in the world, I need to have a bride price. Do you understand the bride price?
Liu Qingfeng said, don’t we have ten taels of silver?
Liu Qingfeng, come here, I promise not to beat you to death.
Brother Sanguan, I just said that, why are your temper as bad as the Ming Cult?
We arrived at Captain Meng's house and we wanted to make an appointment with Captain Meng. The doorman was an old man who was speechless. Lord Meng was very busy. He had too many people to ask him for a date. Why should I help you make an appointment?
Liu Qingfeng and I made a color. Liu Qingfeng quickly took out a osmanthus cake from the box and gave it to him. Old man, this is the osmanthus cake from Shangjingfang. I just queued up to buy it in the morning. Do you want to try it?
The old man said angrily, "Why do you think you're sending beggars?" Why don't you give me two kilograms of winter jujubes?" Liu Qingfeng said, "We want to come, 200 kilograms of winter jujubes per kilogram, isn't this too expensive?"
The doorman hurried back with his sleeves in his hands and muttered, "I don't have ten taels of silver, and I want to enter the gate of Captain Meng's house, but I don't have any way."
Liu Qingfeng shouted, "Master, don't leave, you can't enter the main door, you can't walk through the back door."
When she returned to the escort agency, Jia Ming had been here for a while. She recently got into the Sansu family and said that she was working with the two Taoist priests, Waigua Lizao, to engage in a great career. I said you wouldn't want to go to the palace to steal things, right? Jia Ming curled his lips. What's so fun about the palace? It's like my back garden. I just want to go and leave. Liu Qingfeng covered his wallet and said, "Will you die if you don't brag?"
I heard that we were going to give gifts to Liusanmen and Jinyiwei, Jia Ming said that this matter is easy to deal with, just follow me.
As he said that, he said a few words to a young man at the door, and then the boy left.
Oh, I didn’t see you for a few days and I actually accepted my younger brother. I joked. Jia Ming didn’t agree and took us directly to the top scholar building. When we saw the show of the top scholar building, we hesitated at the door. I said we only had ten taels of silver, and spending here once would probably be enough for a meal. Jia Ming said that you were picky, I’ll just treat this meal.
Jia Ming ordered a table of dishes, and Liu Qingfeng sat down happily and waited for the food to serve. I asked him why he was so at ease. He said that he didn't even bring his wallet when he came out with Miss Jia. Jia Ming said, "You are sure you didn't bring your wallet." As he said, "You raised a wallet in your hand." Liu Qingfeng looked dark and almost knelt down. This is my wife's book, and the lady was merciful. Jia Ming didn't care about it and threw the wallet to Liu Qingfeng.
Halfway through the meal, accompanied by a loud voice, Lord Meng Yuemeng, the chief of the Six Gate, came to the top scholar building. The official was busy, and anyone who was not open-minded wanted to find him.
Seeing Liu Qingfeng and I stand up, Jia Ming ate without hesitation. Captain Meng looked embarrassed, cough, it turned out that they were two brothers from the Central Plains Escort Agency. What wind blows you two over.
We looked at Captain Meng as if we were looking at monsters. The second leader of our school always spoke softly with Captain Meng. Why did we become so polite today? Liu Qingfeng usually speaks very well, but he gets angry when he sees the officials. The same is true when he sees Commander Cui of the Jinyiwei North Punishment Department last time, and the same is true when he sees Captain Meng.
I was fine, so I quickly said that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching. On behalf of several leaders of the Central Plains Escort Agency, I came to wish Captain Meng a happy Mid-Autumn Festival. I prepared some wine, but I couldn't respect him. Captain Meng kept glanced at Jia Ming, and Jia Ming pretended not to see it. Captain Meng was sitting or standing. Jia Ming said that he had come, so he could sit down and eat.
Meng Yue sat down next to the chair and spoke with a restrained attitude. So the three of them chatted without saying a word.
Jia Ming sneezes accidentally when he ate an osmanthus cake. Hearing a whirlpool, Meng Yue sat on the ground.
I quickly helped Captain Meng up. Liu Qingfeng said that we originally wanted to visit the mansion, but the King of Hell would be difficult to deal with when he saw the little ghost. I slapped Liu Qingfeng on the head, how could you say, who is the little ghost and who is the king of Hell? Don’t be surprised by Captain Meng. My brother was squeezed by the door when he was a child, which was not very easy to use.
Meng Yue said it’s okay, this little brother is very humorous.
The meal was not very good. I conveyed the meaning of the second leader. Meng Yue said that everyone is busy and rarely get together on weekdays, so everyone can walk around more when they have time.
Liu Qingfeng muttered, Captain Meng was so stupid that he was squeezed by the door. A high-ranking official from the fourth rank was so polite to us. I said there was nothing to prepare for during the holidays. Usually, you take good care of our escort agency and we made a banner for you. You see if you are satisfied.
Liu Qingfeng quickly took out the banner. Meng Yue opened it and saw four big words written on it: Gynecology master. Liu Qingfeng scratched his head, sorry, Captain Meng, he took it wrong, it was this. He took out another banner, which read: Public servant of the people.
Meng Yue was very happy to see this and said, "I'll give it to me in private, I'll give it to you tomorrow." Our Six Doors are originally used to serve the people. The banner given by the Central Plains Escort Agency is to recognize our Six Doors' work. In the future, we will continue to work hard and achieve great success."
Jia Ming said, "Oh, Lord Meng, you're still beating gongs and drums. Do you want me to send it to you?" Meng Yue said quickly, "No, no, you are busy on weekdays, so I won't bother you. As he said that, he quickly ran away with a banner."
I said okay, Miss. A few days ago, I was chased by Liushemen and fled everywhere. Why did I return to the capital and act like a mighty person?
Jia Ming ate a piece of rice cake and said that he was fighting at home. When he came to Beijing, he had to give our family some face. Even if he didn't give it to me, he had to give my father a face.
Liu Qingfeng said, Miss Jia, your father’s surname is noble?
Jia Ming said to me, please Brother Qin, can you send this kid to the mental hospital?
