The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

"Have you eaten?" Lu Deming asked, "A little?"

Although Lu Deming did not show up in the academy, he always paid attention to the academy's affairs. He has not eaten yet and is not in the mood to eat. He is just too excited and does not feel hungry.

As soon as Li Fu came, he chatted for a while and saw that he had arranged everything properly, so he felt relieved.

This relief made him hungry.

"A little." Li Fu said, "You can't fool me with some vegetarian soup again, right?"

"The food in the cafeteria is delivered. Do you want to eat it? If not, there is nothing else." Lu Deming said with a smile.

"Eat! Liu Niang's cooking skills are very delicious under normal circumstances." Li Fu smiled and said, "Now that she has become a master, she is more serious about cooking."

"She has taught many cooks."

"That day when she went home, she even followed a cart behind her. Guess what, the cart of things were all given to her by her apprentices, saying that they were the tuition for becoming a disciple." Li Fu smiled and said, "You didn't see Liu Niang's expression at that time. She was so proud that she was about to stick her head up to the sky."

"Hahahaha." Lu Deming laughed.

Just listening to Li Fu's description, I found it very interesting.

Liu Niang, the mother of his student Tiezhu, is also a simple and lovely woman, very interesting.

Li Fu and Lu Deming sat down at the table and enjoyed the food sent from the cafeteria.

"It's true, this big pot rice is quite delicious when eaten occasionally." Li Fu praised: "Liu Niang's cooking skills have improved recently. The first time I ate Liu Niang's big pot rice, the taste was still a little worse."

"We are all teachers. To teach so many apprentices, I must improve myself first." Lu Deming responded with a smile.

The two of them had this late lunch happily.

Li Fu didn't plan to hang around in the academy in the afternoon. He had to go home first to pack up some drawings in the study and put them in boxes.

After the opening ceremony, he would go to Chang'an City.

Xiao Tao and Li Fu helped to pack up the drawings in the study.

"My dear, why are there so many drawings?" Xiao Tao asked.

"The service area in Linying is a big project. As the first place to be tested by the court, the drawings must be more detailed. There must be separate drawings for the planning of each building. These separate drawings must be combined to form an overall drawing."

"Didn't you see that Old Yan showed up less during that period? Before the drawings came out, he was too busy to handle it. And I, your husband, can't help much with drawing drawings, and I have to give him ideas. Speaking of which, I was afraid that Old Yan couldn't help but beat me during those days."

Li Fu was a little embarrassed as he spoke.

It turns out that cartographers have faced the same problem since ancient times.

That is to pass the draft...

The ideas from Party A are endless.

Xiao Tao opened a drawing.

"It's really beautiful. Even if Yan Shaojiang and his team are drawing drawings, they are also very beautiful." Xiao Tao praised.

"Of course, they are professionals. How can they be officials in the Craftsmanship Bureau if they don't have the skills?" Li Fu said, "Officials in the Craftsmanship Bureau do their work for the palace, and they have to be more meticulous than usual. So, when I was dealing with the farm, I went directly to the Craftsmanship Bureau to find someone. If we want to do it, we have to do it the best."

Xiao Tao carefully put away the drawings and put them in the box.

"Are you going to show this big box to His Majesty?"

"Of course, this is a big deal, and it must be approved by His Majesty. Otherwise, when the construction in Linying County starts next year, who will we ask for money from? It's easier to ask for money with the drawings." Li Fu explained to Xiao Tao while busying himself.

"Then you will leave Chang'an City again next year."

"I will definitely go there. There is a beginning, and you can come back in the middle. I even have to bring people from the farm. To put it bluntly, the service area in Linying is almost an enlarged trading area. The people in our farm have experience, and Old Yan and Ma Shisan are also deliberately trained in the process. I believe that after they get there, they can all be independent." Li Fu said: "When the time comes, let Du Gou watch over there."

After the service area is built, the Du family's business will also be there. Du Gou is the supervisor there, so he has to be more serious, otherwise it will affect the business and the loss will be their Du family.

"Young Master, the young master of the Du family has only been in the farm for a few days. Can he do it?" Xiao Tao was a little confused.

Du Gou has been in the farm for less time than Ma Zhou, the chief historian of the palace.

"It's okay, but there are also people who are supervising the craftsmen to go with us.There is no need to worry. The drawings are so detailed. If they still cannot be made, wouldn’t it mean that the people in charge of the craftsmanship are useless?" Li Fu smiled and said, "The court nowadays doesn't like to keep useless people. "

Last time we discussed the issue, we also talked about the official assessment system. All those who are unqualified should be dismissed step by step.

Streamline the central government and streamline the bureaucracy.

This is very necessary.

Otherwise, there will be a situation like the Weizhou murder case, where local officials and officials in the capital shirked their responsibilities in various ways. There was no progress in the case for three months. Even for a small matter, they had to ask for instructions. No one wanted to take responsibility. They didn't explain what they said, and just dragged it on.

Is this what an official should do?

If you are afraid of taking responsibility, why do you serve as an official?

As an official of the court, since you are in that position, you have to take responsibility.

In three days, the academy was busy.

The students who originally studied in the academy are quickly adapting to the new academy. For them, the original range of activities was very small, with only that one courtyard, and the newly built Other places in the academy are now open, and the scope of activities in the academy has become larger. You can even eat delicious meals in the academy's cafeteria, and other corresponding facilities are also available.

There is also a newly built martial arts field. According to the new course schedule posted on the notice board, many more subjects will be added in the future.

These courses are new to the children who go to school in the academy.

There are also several horses in the stables of the academy. In the future, you can also learn riding and archery in the academy.

Children from ordinary families used to have no such conditions to get in touch with riding and archery.

Practicing martial arts, riding and archery are things that only wealthy families can afford.

The students of the academy have also been assigned many things, especially after the official opening of school, they have to lead and guide the new students to familiarize themselves with the facilities and courses of the academy.

Therefore, within three days, they have to figure it out by themselves.
