Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting in the Capital Chapter 42, Difficulties

On November 25, 1995, the 70th year of the Kangyuan period of Dagan, Chang'an City, the Ministry of Revenue.

Xu Wubing went to the Ministry of Revenue on the first day and caused a lot of trouble.

First, he was stopped by two guards in the gatehouse. He asked Wuyan what he wanted. When he saw Wuyan's writings, he saw that Wuyan was just a minor official from the seventh rank. He reached out to ask for money to enter the door, saying that this rule has been the past dynasty, and a newcomer had to pay for his job before he could get started...

Although it was a matter of a few dollars to deal with, Wubing was angry and he didn't get a fight. He ignored the entanglement of the sergeant and rushed in. The two yamen runners stepped forward to grab it, but Wubing threw his shoulders and hit them. They both fell out from a distance, just falling on a pile of horse manure. They really fell a "dog gnawing mud"... The two soap officials stood up in a hurry, and while cursing Wubing's boldness, he also complained that the pile of horse manure had not been cleaned. But the two forgot that cleaning the road in front of the door was their job...

The Ministry of Revenue was in charge of the money and grain of a country, and it was the master of the country. There were many personnel in the official office and the institutions were complex. The chief executive was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who had one person and the third rank; the general manager was the Minister of Revenue, who had one person and the third rank; the subordinate was the Minister of Revenue, who had two people and the fourth rank; the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who had four people and the fifth rank. The entire Ministry of Revenue, who had four branches, the Ministry of Revenue, who had four branches, the Ministry of Revenue, who had four branches. In the sixth year of Kangyuan, the current emperor thought that the Ministry of Revenue was under the name of the Ministry of Revenue, and changed the four departments to the four departments of "Siyuan", "Sidu Branch", "Sijin", and "Sichu".

The Siyuan Administration is in charge of the registration and preparation of households across the country, and the preparation of marriage; the Sidu Administration is in charge of the national transportation of money and grain, and the coordination of water and land; the Sijin Administration is in charge of the national treasury, and the Sales Administration is in charge of the granaries across the country.

After Xu Wubing entered the Ministry of Revenue, he saw that the houses in the official office were tight and the high and low houses were stacked. He was dizzy when he saw him, so he had to stop a library office and ask. The library office was quite patient and immediately guided Wubing to pay a visit to the official's office to report to the official's office.

The man on duty was named Pan Wenjuan. He was over 50 years old and had a slightly fat figure. Seeing that Wuyan looked very young, he was surprised and asked about Wuyan's origin. Wuyan just talked about several words and vaguely. Seeing that he could not find any clues, Pan Wenjuan waved his pen and placed Wuyan in the Sijin Office.

The entire Sijin Office has three chief officials, with the sixth rank; sixth rank, and seventh rank; there are also many clerks, clerks, and many chores, all of whom have no rank.

Wuyan took a long time to find the Sijin Office's office and asked many people. He finally found his direct superior, Zhang Bo, the head of the Sijin Office. Wuyan submitted to Zhang Bo the Ministry of Personnel's lawsuit document and the approval of the Ministry of Revenue's Office. Zhang Bo saw that Xu Wuyan was only twenty years old, but he had already obtained a seventh-rank official. He felt a little frustrated and asked:

"I dare to ask which Jinshi is from the list?"

"I am not from a Jinshi," Xu Wubing said.

"Then you are a juren. How much money did you donate and what the official you bought?" Zhang Bo looked contemptuous.

"I'm not a juren, not even a scholar..." Xu Wubing said frankly.

"I was a Jinshi in the 58th year of Kangyuan. I was a Jinshi in Yuan Dynasty. After eleven years of experience in the Ministry of Revenue, I was promoted to the current sixth rank chief. You didn't even have the fame of a scholar. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!... I don't know which door you got into the lobby of the Ministry of Revenue?... You didn't write your confession from the Ministry of Personnel, right? Hahaha!..." Zhang Bo laughed unceremoniously around, and almost his voice was heard in the entire Sijin Office. Everyone in the public hall was busy looking at Xu Wubing, and many people pointed at him, as if they were laughing at Xu Wubing, who had no fame and fortune, but "made a fake document, trying to get away with it and ask for an official..."

"You have been an official for twelve years and are just a sixth rank. It only means that you are a waste!" Xu Wubing said coldly.

"Stop talking!... No matter how bad I am, I am still your boss! You insult your boss today and speak wildly, what should you blame!" Zhang Bo was so angry that his eyes widened, and he pointed at Xu Wubing's nose with his right hand and cursed.

"I'm just answering the questions in your heart..." Wubing continued slowly, "As for what door I asked me from, I'll tell you, I've come in from the gate of the Ministry of Revenue from today... If you don't believe it, there is still a pile of horse manure left there. You can go down and check it carefully to see if it's the horse manure smelling or your mouth smelling?!"

How could Zhang Bo hold back when he was humiliated in public? He rushed forward, twisted Xu Wubing's collar with his left hand, and ignored the gentleness of an official, raised his right hand and slapped Wubing, cursing himself: "I'll hit you something that doesn't know etiquette! Let you taste my strength today..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a "pop" sound, Zhang Bo slapped his left face firmly, and his left cheek was instantly red and swollen...

Everyone watching next to him could not guess that Zhang Bo actually slapped himself, and his strength was so strong. So, the entire Sijin Office's subordinates, from the head to the servants, stopped their work and gathered around them, wanting to see what they wanted to do...

However, the next scene made these people even more puzzled. Zhang Bo suddenly jumped away again and hit a desk next to him hard, causing his scalp to bleed, and his eyes were filled with stars. He could barely hold on to the desk before he could fall to the ground.

The people who surrounded him far away could not help but shook their heads and sighed when they saw this, thinking that Zhang Bo had lost his heart today, and was humiliated by a new subordinate in front of everyone, and even wanted to punish him like this. He first slapped his mouth violently, and then he had to break his scalp...

But the people who were close to Zhang Bo could see clearly. Zhang Bo snatched his left face, screamed, and rushed towards Xu Wubing. They didn't see clearly what Xu Wubing had used, but they saw Wubing's body move slightly and then knocked Zhang Bo out from afar...

Two scholars were Zhang Bo's confidants. Seeing this, they rushed forward and helped Zhang Bo up. One of them said repeatedly, "Master Zhang, it doesn't matter... Why did you hit the corner of the table by yourself?"

Hearing another "bang", Zhang Bo slapped the person talking and said angrily: "Which dog eye did you hit me by yourself when you saw me?"

Zhang Bo pointed at Xu Wubing with his finger and said hatefully: "You! You! You!..." "You" for a long time, he couldn't speak.

At this time, two yamen run up panting. The two of them still had the stench of horse manure on their faces. They were blocking the sick-free two people in the concierge.

"Okay! You kid! We finally found it. In broad daylight, you dare to trek into the Ministry of Revenue's Department of Revenue! Let's not take you today!" The two of them shouted and were about to step forward to take Xu Wubing.

At this time, a young man about thirty years old and with a national face stopped two soldiers and said, "Zhao Wu, Ding Liu, he was a serious Ministry of Revenue appointed by the court. He came to our Jin Office to do things on the first day today. How can you say he was trespassing?!..."

When Zhao Wu and Ding Liu heard the words of the young man, they had to stop. Zhao Wu said hatefully: "Even if you are an experience, you have no right to throw me and you... onto the horse manure... We, we are going to sue you at the Jiang Chenshi!..." After that, the two of them gritted their teeth and stamped their feet while leaving...

Zhang Bo seemed to have woken up at this time, and he took out a sweat towel and covered his head. While crying out the pain, he also followed the two of them out of the door...

Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, everyone dispersed. Wubing bowed slightly to the young man with a national face and said, "I am Xu Wubing, I am here to do things the first day today. How dare I ask this guy who is?..."

The young man with a national face hurriedly replied: "I'm in the lower class Song, and the name is Jinhua, and I'm in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. It's only three months since I came to the Sijin Office..."

Xu Wubing said: "I am just a minor official from the seventh rank. If you talk about the official rank, Brother Song is Xu's boss..."

Song Jinhua hurriedly said, "Brother Xu, you are polite. I, the head of the sixth rank, am not the same as Brother Xu..."

Xu Wubing said: "Brother Song, who is this Zhang Bo? I have never known him, so why did he make things difficult for me for no reason?"

Song Jinhua smiled and said, "Zhang Bo relies on his father-in-law, the Ministry of Revenue, Lord Pan. He is used to being domineering in the Sijin Office. I am the chief officer of him and have been very angry with him before. Today, when he sees you young, he wants to give you a "warning"... but he knows... Hahaha! Brother Xu, this time, you are venting anger for your brothers!..."

Xu Wubing also smiled and said, "It's just that there is a father-in-law of the Man Wailang who dares to be so arrogant! Today, if it falls into my Xu's hands, how can these villains be rampant!"

Song Jinhua immediately said worriedly again: "Depending on the situation, Zhao Wu and Ding Liu went to complain to Jiang Chongmin, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Zhang Bo, naturally, went to find his father-in-law... Wait a while, if Lord Pan and Jiang Zheng came to hold him accountable, I'm afraid Brother Xu would not be able to deal with it..."

Xu Wubing snorted coldly: "Let him go!"

Song Jinhua said: "Brother Xu, who did you recommend to the Ministry of Revenue? Do I want me to report to you on your behalf? Fortunately, Mr. Jiang was fooled. If Lord Pan was really angry, you would have stopped your position on the spot. If you have another student, you can also dismiss you from your post... By then, Brother Xu, that would be amazing..."

Xu Wubing waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay...I want to see, Lord Pan, should he suspend me or participate in my book?..."

Seeing this, Song Jinhua could only shake his head repeatedly, thinking that Pan Wenjuan had been an official in the court for nearly thirty years. Although he was still a fourth-rank official, it was reported that his party was affiliated with the King of Jin and had connections in the court. If you offend him, you will not be able to take any more money in the future...

...

Xu Wubing and Song Jinhua were talking and laughing. Song Jinhua pointed out Wubing to be familiar with some regular affairs in the official office. After a while, he suddenly saw a group of people surrounding an old man and rushed in with great momentum.

The person in charge was slightly fat and graceful. He was over fifty years old and was wearing the fourth-rank official of the Lake Blue Peacock Tail. It was Pan Wenjuan, the Minister of Revenue.

As soon as Pan Wenjuan entered the door, he showed his power and bowed down and shouted in a deep voice:
