Chapter 58 White Gloves

"That..."

"Don't say anything that is not, it seems that Lao Luo, a sesame-sized official, can be the head of the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Works!"

"We'd better be more at ease and honestly think about how to complete the project of repairing the city wall."

Fang Shiyu waved his hand and reminded Zhu Yuanzhang and Luo Furen to be more responsible as a person.

"Don't worry, the Minister of Works' surname is Luo, and I'm also Luo. I was a family member hundreds of years ago, so the repair of the city wall was covered by me."

Luo Furen patted his chest and said.

"There is also the matter of building a dam. Mr. Fang, please rest assured. If the Minister of Works cannot decide, I will break into the palace to meet the emperor."

"Even if I have to fight for my life, I will do this beautifully."

Luo Furen glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang while talking.

If the emperor did not agree, I would hit the head and die in front of the dam.

Zhu Yuanzhang was frightened by Luo Furen's eyes.

It turns out that honest people look like they are serious.

I'm convinced.

"Old man Luo, I know you are not bad-hearted, but this matter is not something you can decide."

"I have been a Sesame Official for most of my life. I guess you don't even know where the door of the palace is opened."

Fang Shiyu came to Luo Furen, patted him on the shoulder, and signaled him to be down-to-earth in doing things.

"Fang... Master Fang, I am..."

"What... Lao Luo, as a fourth-rank military officer, I dare not make such bold statements. As a seventh-rank so-called master, what can you guarantee?"

Luo Furen was about to reveal his true identity, but was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang next to him without hesitation.

It's amazing to be a senior official.

Facing the powerful Zhu Yuanzhang, Luo Furen had to shut up and stop talking.

"Old man Luo, don't be discouraged. Since you can respect my reinforced concrete, it means that the quality of my baby is excellent."

"Don't listen to Old Man Zhu whining there. When you introduce me to a few more businesses in the future, everyone can make money together."

"I can't guarantee anything else, it's okay to be the richest man in the Ming Dynasty for you."

Seeing Luo Furen's words interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang, Fang Shiyu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen looked at each other after hearing Fang Shiyu's words, and then shook their heads helplessly.

He is obviously an unparalleled national soldier who can change the Chinese landscape, but why is he like a businessman who falls into money?

Isn’t he good to contribute his abilities to my Ming Dynasty?

"Mr. Fang, when will we do this business?"

Liu Bowen asked from the side.

According to his vision, repairing the Jinling city wall is just a trivial matter, and what he really wants to do is a great thing that can benefit thousands of years.

However, the first thing to do is to ask Fang Shiyu to repair the Jinling city wall.

This will determine the quality of the city wall.

"Wait a moment."

“Although the quality problem has been solved now, we are facing another problem.”

"If it's not done well, this business will not be done."

Fang Shiyu looked at the several people present seriously.

"Don't worry, even if Old Man Luo doesn't do it, I will do everything and I will take over your project to repair the city wall."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought Fang Shiyu was worried that he would not be able to take charge of the work of repairing the city wall, so he quickly patted his chest and promised.

"Old man, you are wrong. What I am worried about is not this, but who will do this business."

Fang Shiyu said with a shaking head.

"Isn't it yours to do it?"

Lan Yu looked at Fang Shiyu a little strangely.

I just discussed with myself how to take over the project of repairing the city wall and building a dam.

Why did you forget it after looking back?

"I could have done it before, but now it's not possible."

"According to the laws formulated by Emperor Hongwu, officials in the court are not allowed to do business privately, otherwise they will be punished heavily."

"If you use your power for personal gain, you will be caught and peeled off the grass."

"Now the few people present are all officials. Old Man Luo, don't talk about it, but they are also the direct contact person of the project. If the censor finds out, he will directly apply for your book, then you can wait for the head to land."

Fang Shiyu seriously advised the people present.

"So that's the case. I almost forgot about this."

"I'm speechless when doing business, I'm actually hindered."

"I want to see which censor dares to take care of this matter."

“…”

Several people present came to their senses instantly.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, officials had only two sources of income, namely salary and land, and other incomes were illegal income.

Whether you are involved in trouble depends entirely on Zhu Yuanzhang's mood.

Fang Shiyu felt that he had no friendship with Zhu Yuanzhang, so he was found that only the head of the person fell to the ground.

"What should I do?"

Lan Yu was a little anxious.

He was fantasizing about repairing the city walls, and then running to the north to build a bunker to kill the Tartars.

"It seems we need a white glove!"

Fang Shiyu pondered for a moment and said lightly.

"Mr. Fang, what are the white gloves you mentioned in your mouth?"

Liu Bowen asked with interest.

Fang Shiyu brought him many surprises, such as the previous inflation, the cabinet system, and purchasing power...

It's simply unheard of.

But after I learned it, I felt it was really appropriate.

But what is this white glove now?

"White gloves are just gloves worn on your hands when doing dirty work. After finishing the dirty work, throw away the gloves and your hands are still clean!"

Fang Shiyu explained with a smile.

"I understand, aren't you talking about scapegoats?"

Now it was not just Liu Bowen and Luo Furen, but even Lan Yu immediately understood the meaning of white gloves.

“It all means the same.”

Fang Shiyu was not surprised that the people in front of him understood what they wanted to express so quickly.

Looking back and forth, those who are superiors have the habit of using scapegoats.

"If it were just like this, it shouldn't be so difficult, right?"

Luo Furen said seriously beside him.

Isn't he just a scapegoat?

It is hard to find anything else, but it is too easy for them, such as the high-ranking people.

"White gloves that meet my listed standards are not that easy to find."

Fang Shiyu shook her head and denied Luo Furen's idea.

"First, such a large project is indispensable to dealing with people and dealing with all kinds of people."

"So, people who act as white gloves must have some identity and are proficient in accidents."

"Secondly, whether it is directly contracting the project or supplying the required materials, the court will definitely not hand over such a big deal to an unknown person."
