The one who reacted more greatly among the people present was Liu Shiku.
Liu shiku was eating sea bass at that time, at first hearing that Zhu Pingan had arrived outside the door of Taicang Silver Vault, Liu shiku was so surprised that he was instantly caught in the throat by a fish splinter, and coughed with a reddened face, tears almost flowing out of his eyes.
“Although it was a bit unexpected, but Liu treasurer you also reacted too much, right?”
“Heh heh heh, a milquetoast kid only, what is there to worry about, Lord Liu you this is also too ……”
Just after an accident, all the people here are calm up, and even vaguely happy, originally also worried about how to coax Zhu Pingan to go through the procedure, and now people send up the door, is not just dozing off on the delivery of pillows, great joy ah.
At this moment, seeing Liu Shiku like this, the crowd could not help but laugh and flirt up.
“I was stuck by a fishbone.”
Liu shiku could not help but explain to the crowd with a red face, of course the response to him was naturally another burst of good-natured laughter from the crowd.
After this interruption, the atmosphere in the room returned to lightheartedness and happiness, Zhu Pingan’s arrival seemed to be like a drop of water in the ocean, apart from the little ripples it caused in the beginning, there was no other effect.
However, even if all of them despise Zhu Ping An in their hearts, after all, Zhu Ping An represents the Taicang Silver Depository Inspection Group, and he came to inspect the Taicang Silver Depository by the will of His Holiness, and all of them still have to do the work on the surface.
“I see that all of you have pretty much eaten, since this inspection envoy has come, we can’t lose our manners.”
Zhang Guancu smiled, put down his chopsticks, got up and said to the crowd.
“Naturally, naturally.”The crowd responded with smiles and rose together, walking towards the door along with Zhang Guancu.
The crowd was not at all surprised by the unexpected arrival of Zhu Pingan, in their opinion, Zhu Pingan was nothing more than a newborn calf.
The newborn calf is not afraid of the tiger, knowing that there is a tiger in the mountain, the courage is commendable, but the result is only one, that is, the tiger can have a full meal again, but you calf has more courage, but also no effect.
The sun was blazing like a fire.
Outside the Taicang door, a young man dressed in green official uniform, standing straight in the sunlight, his eyes examining the Taicang silver warehouse in front of him, the sweat on his body has soaked his official uniform, from time to time on the forehead there is sweat flowing down.
However, the teenager was as normal, as if he was enjoying the sunshine somewhere.
Well, this person was Zhu Pingan.
Under the scorching sun, Zhu Pingan waited for about half an hour in the Taicang Silver Vault before he saw a line of officials arriving late in the Taicang Silver Vault.
At the head of the line was a scarlet-coloured official Peac*ck Parker official, aged about forty to fifty, with an elegant aura, just like a great scholar.
Behind him followed by more than ten officials, look at the official uniform parka, it seems that many are higher than the official position of Zhu Pingan.
This should be the management of the Taicang Silver Depot, the scarlet official at the head of the official uniform, should be the Taicang Silver Depot’s management of the treasury adults Zhang Daoren.
After Zhu Pingan received the task of inspecting Taicang Silver Depot, he had done some understanding of Taicang Silver Depot and knew the structure of Taicang Silver Depot’s officials, only the names did not match up with the people, but it was good to know that in ancient times there were strict hierarchies, and the entire Taicang Silver Depot that was qualified to wear the scarlet official uniforms and walk in the forefront could only be the Zhang Tankou, Zhang Daoren.
Zhu Pingan saw this line of officials, this line of officials naturally also saw Zhu Pingan, they dragged half an hour before slipping and sliding to the front door, saw Zhu Pingan outside the front door standing in the hot sun, sweating, than the silver warehouse spit tongue watchdog more lousy, simply like a dog in the water.
Taicang silver warehouse for security considerations, a mile radius of all the trees cut down, to avoid people with the help of trees to hide or climb into the silver warehouse, as well as to avoid the fire and other hidden dangers, so this also led to the Taicang outside the gate, there is no shade.
Seeing Zhu Pingan who was like a dog in the water, the line of Taicang Silver Vault officials could not help but feel more contempt for Zhu Pingan in their hearts.
“My name is Zhu Pingan, I have seen Lord Zhang, I have seen all the adults, Pingan came uninvited, and I am ashamed to trouble all the adults to come to meet me personally.”
Seeing from afar the line of Taicang officials coming, Zhu Pingan quickly stepped forward to meet with all of them, with a smile on his face and a very respectful salute, not at all disgruntled because of the long wait of half an hour under the scorching sun.
“Where where where, Lord Zhu’s great presence in Taicang, we have missed out on welcoming you, forgive me, forgive me ……,” the leader of the group, Zhang Custodian, smiled as he stepped forward to return the salute, a pair of eyes sweeping Zhu Pingan without a trace.
“That’s right, bothering Lord Zhu to wait for a long time, it’s really not us, I hope Lord Zhu will bear with me.”Langzhong Jia Xu followed suit and arched his hand.
“This God is so unkind, Ta-Jen Zhu is hot outside, please quickly enter the Taicang.”
“Please come in quickly, Lord Zhu.”
The rest of the Taicang officials also warmly greeted each other with an arch of the hand, any weather that is blazing hot seems to be no match for the enthusiasm of the Taicang officials.
“Where where where, it is Ping An who has come uninvited and has caused trouble for you all adults.”Zhu Pingan touched his head in embarrassment and lowered his stance.
“Which is not true, for Lord Zhu’s arrival, we couldn’t have asked for more.”Taicang officials said politely, what they said is also the truth, they really can’t wait for Zhu Pingan to come, auditing Taicang silver warehouse, how can the auditing team not come to a person that works.
For a time the guests and hosts are happy, Taicang outside a harmonious and enthusiastic scene.
But the heart has its own waves.
Abalone flavour, good strong wine aroma, and shark’s fin, deer breast ……Well, the smell on this person seems to be like the bear paw that I had the pleasure of tasting once last time at Yan Ge Lao’s house ……
When Zhu Pingan went up to meet with the people, he slightly moved his nose, and then he smelled a strong smell of corruption from the line of people, the bear paw alone is more than their salary to bear the scope of Zhu Pingan’s heart, his face was unchanged.
While Zhu Pingan’s heart was rippling, the crowd of Taicang officials also had a further understanding of Zhu Pingan.
When they first arrived at the door, Zhu Pingan’s dog-like appearance had already caused the crowd to feel contempt in their hearts.
Now
Zhu Pingan salutes the crowd so respectfully, speaks so humbly, a posture of a junior, completely a rookie in the officialdom, even more so, let the crowd secretly laugh in their hearts, thinking that this year’s Taicang Silver Treasury Inspection, should be easy again.
Doughy rookie.
Is not let us knead.
Just like this also audit the silver bank? If such a Zhu Pingan were to come a hundred times, it wouldn’t be enough for one of us to fiddle with.
“You guys, we were so focused on talking that we forgot that Lord Zhu has been waiting outside for a long time, what a sin. This way please, Lord Zhu, just now Senior Zhang has already ordered the butchers to chat and prepare a thin wine and small dishes to receive the wind with Lord Zhu.”
After exchanging pleasantries for a few moments, as if he suddenly remembered, Langzhong Jia Xu smiled and said a sin to Zhu Pingan before reaching out to invite Zhu Pingan into the library.
“Senior Zhang, please.”
“Sir Zhu please.”
“Please.”
“Please.”
After mutual courtesies, Zhu Pingan stepped into the Taicang Silver Vault with Manager Zhang and the others.
