"Madam's Diplomacy" is a fame and fortune routine since ancient times. Even Wu Meiniang has no title, but because she has successfully transferred her secretary from the perspective of acting Jiang Han, her status cannot be treated as an ordinary "daughter of a prince". Because this "secretary" is a real "official" and is more powerful than the orders of some offices and bureaucracies in the imperial bureaucracy.

The state dynasty had a "secretary supervisor" and was one of the five provinces. Although it is only mentioned in the "three provinces" now, and even the three provinces are about to "exist in name only", this "valuation" can still be seen.

Now the Shangshu Zuo Pushe and Jiangxi Governor Fang Qiao have also set up a "secretariat", which is an important yamen for the Governor's Office to officially convey policies to subordinate departments.

Although there is no question of policy implementation, its importance is self-evident.

It is not unusual for Wu Meiniang to be an official. The large number of girls from the dynasty are not Zhang Dekai's head, but the transaction of the "Two Saints" in husband-and-wife shops.

Strictly speaking, Empress Changsun herself is an "official" and her duties are "exemplary in the harem". Later, her family and her career have become great, and she has changed from "exemplary in the harem" to "managing the harem". Later, the queen herself has more and more money, and the family backgrounds of the concubines in the harem have no "deterrent power", and she has changed from "managing the harem" to "ruling the harem".

During this period, the power of the inner palace gradually slipped into the hands of the queen, and the profits of the East Palace became the control of the queen. The planning of the husband-and-wife store became a typical example of "the male leads the outside and the female leads the inside".

The store is getting bigger and bigger and the business is getting more and more prosperous. Originally, the guy was too busy to get busy, so he had to hire someone. However, hiring someone had to take risks. As a family business, he could not trust outsiders, so the husband-and-wife store opened its own school, or recruited relatives from the servants.

So the eunuchs also had a school when they died of Yin and Yang, and those with talented maids in the palace immediately stood out. In the old days, those who were hard-working and willing to use their brains in the palace immediately became the "officials" in the hands of the queen. They could not only manage the affairs of the palace, but also supervise outside. They were indeed as good as men.

In order to flatter, the government agencies racked their brains to cooperate with the "Two Saints" to leave a good impression. The best one is the Imperial Physicians Department.

A large number of "little-handed midwives" trained in Wuhan, a large number of them were requisitioned to the Imperial Medical Office.

Of course, the Imperial Medical Office did not dare to be arrogant and forcefully sought it. Instead, he reported to the queen. Then the queen sent an angel to Wuhan for an investigation, and then signed a "employment intention" with the "little hand midwives" and then returned to Beijing to report.

"Female nurse" and "female doctor" can become famous, which has a great relationship with the flattery of the Imperial Medical Office. The nobles who depended on the imperial power discovered convenience and gained benefits. After greatly reducing the premature death rate and saving the mother, the largest group of female officials officially appeared on the stage of history.

However, the status of doctors is not high, and the mainstream society will not think that this is anything. Only those who act like Wu Meiniang's "her husband" were shocked.

Among the women in the boudoir or the women of the court, Wu Meiniang and Li Wanshun are famous figures in their respective regions. However, because of the special nature of her father, there are not many people who are serious and willing to praise her. On the contrary, Wu Meiniang has no obstacles in her life, so she can sway her cheeks and whisper wildly in Wuhan.

At first, officials from all prefectures and counties thought that Zhang De had a whim and wanted to spoil his wife, but he never expected that Wu Meiniang was in charge of weaving mulberry silkworms, and her performance was extremely eye-catching. Not only did the mulberry forest area increase greatly, but she also absorbed two or three thousand weaver girls from Huangzhou to work in Mianzhou.

If you choose a county magistrate, you will be able to get a middle-aged or higher performance. If you have a lack of it, you will definitely get better.

Later, Wu Erniang was transferred back to the mansion for appointment. This time, many officials shut up, and no one was dissatisfied. After Fang Xuanling took office in Nanchang and submitted a new "secretariat", the position of Secretary-General of the Jianghan Observation Office successfully fell into the hands of Wu Meiniang.

Although it was approved by the court by the eighth rank, it was obviously more powerful than the county magistrates such as Wuchang, Yongxing, Jiangxia, and Hanyang. Just "information" is enough to make a group of county magistrates kneel down and lick them directly.

However, the official documents of the Ministry of Personnel have not been officially released. Although Wu Meiniang has already taken charge of business, she is not an "official body" after all. This window period has made the local tyrants from all walks of life in Wuhan and even on both sides of the Yangtze River excited.

Because if the official documents are released, Wu Meiniang will officially become the "Secretary of Wu". Giving gifts to her at that time is called bribery. But now she is not an "official person", giving gifts to her is called winning over feelings.

It happened that there was a sign of "unable force" in the "Han Yue Chi Dao". "Major Construction" in Wuhan is a very likely event, but there is a saying in terms of how to "major Construction" it is.

While Lao Zhang recruited Jiangnan bureaucrats and technical departments to have dinner and meetings, Wu Meiniang's social engagements gradually doubled. From morning to night, he had to deal with the "county lady", "national lady" and "XX daughter" who "came to the name of the name", so many of them were so dazzling.

The diversity and scarcity of gifts really opened the eyes of Mrs. Wu Er. For the first time, she knew that the power of "officials" was so much greater than that of "head of the family".

No wonder so many people want to be officials.

In the extremely busy situation of "Madam Diplomacy", Wu Er Madam not only did not exhaust himself, but instead devoted himself to socializing because of the nourishment of power. Socializing cannot be a one-man show. Since it is a two-way test, for Wu Er Madam to "touch the bottom" of many wealthy families on both sides of the Yangtze River, it is not a good move.

"Why are there so many?"

Looking at the stack of "gift gift lists" counted by Wu Meiniang, although Lao Zhang was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised. He never expected that the "Han Yue Chi Dao" could attract so many people this time.

The "gift list" was classified by Wu Meiniang, which were unable to survive in the hometown, which were the families who were defeated by political struggles, and which were rich and willful people...all were sorted out one by one by Wu Meiniang.

"I still think it's less." Wu Meiniang raised her chin proudly. Because she was doing housework, her originally round figure became a little thinner over the years. Although her chin did not turn into awl, the "baby fat" on the tip of her chin completely disappeared.

"Is there little? I'm afraid that it's not a big family along the river, but everyone who can speak is here."

"You are 'why not eat meat'."

Wu Meiniang looked at Lao Zhang, shook her head and sighed.

“I’m still ‘why not eat minced meat’?”

After being amused by Wu Er's wife, Lao Zhang asked her, "Tell me, why don't I eat meat minced?"

"You have been in Wuhan for a long time, and you don't feel anything about building bridges and roads, or even building ponds and dams and reservoirs. As long as you have a large project, you can use it clean. Therefore, the local major companies in Wuhan who are involved in various industries have no worries about sales, so the business is naturally good."

While talking, Wu Er Madam kneaded Lao Zhang's shoulders. Before they went to bed at night, they had a small understanding. In their thirties, although they often whipped iron and squatted, the "occupational disease" still came out, a typical case was cervical spondylosis.

Only by aiming at the acupoints and kneading them can you feel comfortable. This kind of private thing is obviously impossible to throw it to outsiders. Lao Zhang agrees, and even the whole family of women at home will not agree.

"Maybe Chang'an, Luoyang, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Yangzhou are the same, but they are not as prosperous as Wuhan. The original intention of building bridges and roads elsewhere may not be similar to Wuhan."

"It makes sense, but what does this have to do with 'why not eat minced meat'?"

"Why is it not very relevant? You only think that cement, fine iron and other things are always short of markets. I only say cement. For example, when I went to Jingzhou, it was just a shortage. Most of them were used by powerful people. Even if you see half of them were used to build bridges and roads, or just build a school building?"

"What's the meaning?"

"The powerful and powerful need to be anxious, that is, the amount of time, but only 'large-scale construction' is the long-term demand. Those who built cement factories sold the powerful and powerful for a while and completely lost their place. So they tried their best to transport the cement to Chang'an, Luoyang, and Wuhan, but the mountains and rivers were high and far away, was there still a small amount of space there?"

Suddenly, Lao Zhang understood what she meant: "You mean, these people who have bought cement factories actually want to move all the properties to Wuhan?"

"It is precisely this reason. When you see how much cement consumes in Wuhan, you think it is the same. But there are so many 'built bridges and roads' elsewhere? Only Wuhan is working without stopping and has to rest for a moment. So these gift-giving people just want to make a long-term goal. You said you, 'Why not eat meat minced', and you are wrong?"

"Nonsense, of course I'm wrong. These people can't starve to death if they don't come to Wuhan. Which one is not a wealthy family?"

"That's how I compete, why are you messing around?"

"Where am I messing around?"

"No more press!"

Wu Er's wife raised her eyebrows and clapped her hands, and stopped kneading Lao Zhang's shoulders, staring at him with a wide eyelid.

"Hey, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I'm 'why not eat meat', press it twice, I'm so sour these days..."

"Bah! Shameless..."
