These people don't have to work and can still get money and food, so of course they are happy.

As a result, Shi Zhongkui had to give eight sedan bearers a subsidy of 50 yuan per person per day.

Otherwise, although these servants from the Ministry of Etiquette dare not disobey orders, they will bump your sedan chair and make you uncomfortable.

Shi Zhongkui can also replace them with dishonest things, or simply have them beaten.

But the consequence of doing this is that there will inevitably be rumors that spread in the Ministry of Rites and other yamen.

Even if these people are his direct subordinates, it will not sound good if they have a reputation of being harsh to them.

Fortunately, the demands of such people are not high. A few kilograms or more than ten kilograms of rice are subsidized to them every day, which is enough to make them grateful.

And this is one of the so-called unspoken rules of ancient officialdom.

When he came to the outside of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the clerk in charge of the door and the Yamen servant showed gloating smiles on their faces when they saw him getting off the sedan chair.

While he was busy ordering people to go in and report, several petty officials and government servants also quickly walked forward and knelt down on one knee to salute, "I have seen Mr. Zhuangyuan, and Diao Langzhong from the branch office went to the staff department for an hour to handle matters.

How about you come back tomorrow?"

Shi Zhongkui knew that Diao Dexing was avoiding him, and this was not the first time.

Everything comes down to a matter of three. I have come to see you three times and still can’t see you. Then don’t resort to trickery.

Of course, you can actually find Yu Honggao or the Duke of Jiu's Mansion, or even the Jia family and Wang Ziteng.

But if you have something to ask for help, you will appear to be incompetent.

I deliberately stood at the door of the Hubu Yamen for a while, and the officials and clerks who came and went discussed and inquired.

Soon some people smiled, others shook their heads or left directly.

But whether it was those who laughed or sighed, they all spread the word.

Shi Zhongkui then said with a smile to the clerk who had been kneeling, "On the first day I came to the Ministry of Revenue, I met Mr. Right Minister.

I went to the Department of Household Affairs and it took me four days to get the rice field information registered over the years in Gyeonggi Province.

This is nothing, after all, it does take time to transfer inventory.

But when I went to the Duzhi Division, which was in charge of the affairs of the branch, to withdraw money and grain.

It would be better for Mr. Diao to just come here because he is busy with official business, so he couldn't see him three times."

The first two sentences are intended not to offend the right servant and the household secretary.

The last sentence was as close as scolding Diao Dexing for working around all day and deliberately making things difficult for him.

Shi Zhongkui smiled and glanced around at the household officials, petty officials, more than a dozen officials and numerous entourage who were listening with their ears pricked up.

Seeing the different expressions of the group of people, he smiled and said, "Tell Mr. Diao that everything can only be done by three."

After saying that, he turned around and got into the sedan chair.

This shows that someone is using procrastination to drag themselves down. Once they miss this year's sowing, it will be a big sin.

Under such circumstances, it would be considered normal for him to take some extraordinary actions.

Of course, if he really couldn't get the money for a while, Shi Zhongkui wouldn't keep wasting money with the Ministry of Revenue.

Comparing the decree given by the emperor, if there is any possibility to prepare funds by oneself.

He said to Shun'er across the sedan chair, "Let Cui Hezhong, the embroidered guard of the hundred households, come to see me later, and go home now."

Shun'er nodded hurriedly, shouted "Get up the sedan", and then ordered the servants who followed him from the Yu family to go to a restaurant not far away to call for someone.

After finishing speaking, Shun'er thought for a while and asked in a low voice beside the sedan, "Master, would you like to invite the warriors of the Xiuyi Guard, the general flag, and the small flag officers to have a light meal?"

This suggestion was not bad, but Shi Zhongkui said "no" and stopped talking.

Shi Zhongkui, who has gradually become accustomed to ancient times, knows very well that using money to attract subordinates to serve is indeed very useful, but there is a problem.

In ancient times, it was an official position, but not in modern social enterprises, where bosses have to be careful about how to treat and win over their subordinates.

Shi Zhongkui was dissatisfied with the embroidered clothes guards who were ordered by him, so he beat Cui and Zhong of hundreds of households with thirty to fifty sticks in one sentence.

Cui Hezhong didn't dare to complain. If he was allowed to return to Xiuyiwei, the stall owner and the commander would definitely skin him.

Because I am someone who can hand over my badge at any time and enter the palace to go to the study.

Although he would not foolishly complain in front of the emperor, he could mention a few words in front of Xia Shouzhong. With the eunuch's desperate need for face, he would definitely cause trouble for the stall owner and the commander.

Therefore, Shi Zhongkui knew very well that rewards should be given to his subordinates after they have made achievements, not in advance.

Lest this group of killers feel that they are being deceived.

When he got home, Cui Hezhong was already waiting outside the door with five general flags.

When Shi Zhongkui got off the sedan and saw it, a smile appeared on his face.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart, no wonder so many people have to rely on the imperial examination.

In fact, once someone wears an official robe, it can determine the future, even life and death, of many people.

Cui Hezhong and the five general banners knelt down on one knee and said, "I've seen you, sir."

"Well", Shi Zhongkui entered the house with 6 people, and ordered Shun'er to take them to the lobby to wait while he went into the study.

After activating the magic of exorcism, the golden-haired rat ran back soon.

"Sir, Diao Dexing was notified by the clerk at the Ministry of Household Affairs and went directly to the house of the outside family."

Hearing that Jinmao Shu said that Diao Dexing actually went to Wai Shi's house, Shi Zhongkui couldn't help but sneer.
