Li Xiao was supposed to sleep in the Jinzhou Garrison District at night, but Li Xiao chose a guest house next to the Jinzhou Yamen office building.

It's said to be a guest house, but it's not much different from a big hotel.

The entire guest house is magnificently decorated. Not to mention anything else, the huge crystal chandelier in the lobby is worth a lot of money.

Li Xiao glanced at Wang Tingzhang!

Wang Tingzhang's forehead began to sweat, and he stood aside without daring to move.

“I still remember that when we were in Phi Island, we finally burned some cement and built a house.

The typhoon came, and I held Xiaoyu in my arms and endured it all night in the violent storm.

Now……!

So generous!

There are carpets and crystal lamps hanging, and the marble on the walls is so dazzling that it makes people blind.

It’s really different!”

The sweat on Wang Tingzhang's forehead flowed like a stream.

"Commander...Commander, everyone below said that this is the face of the Jinzhou imperial court, so...that's why we spent a lot of money."

"You know it's a waste of time!

Okay! Since you have spare money to build this thing, it means your Jinzhou Yamen is very rich.

Your Jinzhou Yamen, your office expenses will be halved starting from today.

Staff will be reduced by 10%.

Now that military expenditures are tight, you, Jinzhou, must also contribute."

"Promise!" Looking at Li Xiao's tiger-like eyes, Wang Tingzhang could only promise.

This is really luring the wolf... No, it's luring the tiger into the house.

Not much has happened yet, office expenses have been reduced by half, and staff have been reduced by 10%.

After finally sending this great god into the guest room, Wang Tingzhang, like a deflated rubber ball, found a guest room on the floor below Li Xiao that was close to the stairs.

"Master Futai, you don't have to worry.

The commander-in-chief just said that, he still has to leave. Once the commander-in-chief leaves, it is you, Mr. Futai, who have the final say on what happens here."

Master Zhang smiled and gave Wang Tingzhang advice!

"What do you mean...!" Wang Tingzhang looked at Master Zhang listlessly.

"It's very simple. After the commander left, no one checked our accounts.

Any missing office expenses will be transferred to other accounts.

Those who were fired should find another reason to bring them back.

The commander-in-chief can’t be in Jinzhou every day, watching our yamen checking accounts and counting heads!”

Wang Tingzhang said nothing after hearing this, with a noncommittal expression.

The interpersonal relationships in this yamen are intricate. Behind each person is an official, and behind the official there are officials.

Step by step, many people are like vines stretching out from his branches.

If you reduce your manpower by 10%, you will definitely be cut back on yourself.

They were all invited in, and many of them were given heavy gifts. If they were really dismissed, it really couldn't be justified.

"Dong Weng!

This must never be like this!" Just when Master Zhang was feeling proud, Master Wang walked in with a stack of documents in his arms.

"What did you say?" Wang Tingzhang looked at Master Wang.

This Master Wang is not speaking to an outsider, but to his distant nephew.

I had read some books but had nothing to do in my hometown, so I took a road trip and came to Wang Tingzhang.

I don’t talk much on weekdays, I just concentrate on my work.

But I didn't expect that today, I suddenly opened my mouth, and every time I spoke, I had the intention of going against the Chief Master Zhang.

Wang Tingzhang really wanted to hear the advice of this honest and responsible nephew.

"Dong Weng!

The fact that the commander-in-chief said this in public proved that he was extremely dissatisfied.

If you do exactly what the commander says, it won't matter even if you offend others.

After all, it is the commander's order, and no one dares to disobey it.

But if you secretly say one thing and do another...

The commander may not know for a while, but who can be sure that no one will talk too much around the commander?

Many people are jealous of your position as the prefect of Jinzhou.

What if, I mean what if, someone bribes the people around the commander to say something...

What would the commander think?

By that time, you have no chance to explain even if you want to.

You are a member of the old Liao Army, and the commander-in-chief is your support.

If the Marshal has an opinion about you..., then in the future, this position will not be yours...

It’s hard to say!”

This Master Wang is obviously not good at words, and he cares very much about Wang Tingzhang's attitude.

Almost every few words he said, he would glance at Wang Tingzhang secretly.

After listening to Master Wang's words, Wang Tingzhang's eyes suddenly lit up.

That’s indeed what happened!

Now, no matter whether it is reducing funds or laying off employees, there is the big Buddha of the Marshal standing in front of us, and no one can say what to do.

But he secretly infiltrated Chen Cang, which saved some people's jobs and also made Jinzhou Yamen's office funds more abundant.

but……

It's really hard to say whether there will be people snitching on you behind your back.

Someone really said something behind my back, and I didn't even have a chance to defend myself.

"Um!

What you said makes sense. I will follow the commander's instructions tomorrow.

The staff will be reduced by 10% and office expenses will be cut by half.

All the money saved was turned over to the national treasury.

In recent years, Jinzhou has become richer. The people below are indeed a bit outrageous!

All day long I ate sea cucumbers and abalones, and drank Moutai Wuliangye.

All the accounts reported are public accounts!

Some people even go to the kiln to find the kiln sister, and they have to get a note back to report to the government.

From now on, none of these things will work.

You should supervise this matter. In the future, if anyone cheats on the account and is found out, he will be fired.

And..., never use it!"

Wang Tingzhang did not hesitate for a moment and decided to follow the commander's instructions.

Li Xiao slept all night, and when he went out early the next morning, he saw Wang Tingzhang standing straight at the door like a javelin, like a guard.

"Tingzhang, so early?"

"Standing on guard duty for the commander-in-chief is a humble job."

"Haha! Not bad." Li Xiao patted Wang Tingzhang's shoulder affectionately.

This was the third time that Li Xiao patted Wang Tingzhang on the shoulder. Everyone believed that this was a sign of favor.

It is obvious that Mr. Wang's official career will continue to be smooth and his future is limitless.

"Have breakfast with me." After Li Xiao finished speaking, he went straight downstairs to the restaurant for dinner under the guidance of the guards.

Obviously, Wang Tingzhang put a lot of effort into Li Xiao's diet.

Instead of those fancy things, there were two drawers of dumplings.

Four plates of pickles and a large bowl of fragrant rice porridge.

"I'll eat dumplings in the morning!" Li Xiao smiled and sat on the chair.
