Chapter 1002: Investigation
Huang Ye came to the door of the office, his face unable to hide his excitement. He straightened his clothes to ensure his spirit was full, and stepped over the threshold with a face full of confidence.
"Greetings to my lord!"
He bowed directly!
Back when Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen was still Prison Clerk Chen, he actively expressed himself, showing his talent at some appropriate times. He would neither catch people's eyes, be hated, be misunderstood as frivolous, nor be ignored. In private, he worked hard to read and learn characters, changed his gambling habit for this, and saved money to buy brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
After years of hard work, it was finally seen by people.
Success or failure depends on today.
"Huang Ye, I remember you, and I have a deep impression of you. I have always believed that you are a capable person; I saw this point, and Chen Quan also saw your advantages. I heard that you signed up for a class and have been insisting on reading and learning characters."
"I have always kept my lord's teachings in mind and have not dared to be slack for a day. It's just that I am stupid; I have studied for a few years, but I can only barely read two books."
"It doesn't matter; it's very good that you have this ambition. Here is a document; you copy it, and I'll see how your writing is."
"Yes!"
Huang Ye bowed and agreed, took a deep breath, and then stepped forward to write.
All along, Chen Guanlou has been willing to give opportunities to people with ambition.
Especially adults, who have money and leisure, can change bad habits, and are willing to spend time learning, which is very rare.
He knew too well how hard it is to read after work and how hard it is to persist. There are too many temptations, wine, beauty, silver, gambling, everywhere are temptations to degenerate.
Being able to persist in reading shows that his willpower is strong enough and his ambition is sufficient. Only such a person can fight against the old senior Xu Fugui.
The Heavenly Prison is not like other yamens; the Heavenly Prison here pays attention to inheriting the father's business, descendants. Therefore, everyone is related to each other, and things cannot be done too absolutely.
Dealing with Xu Fugui, if it were other yamens, it would naturally be dismissed. But in the Heavenly Prison, we still have to consider the feelings of the prison guards and try to convince people with reason as much as possible.
This bunch of prison guards, counting on them to do one thing is difficult.
However, their ability to drag their feet, if they admit to being second, no one dares to admit to being first. Who knows when they will poke a big hole!
Why do criminal officials never retaliate against the prison guards who bullied them when they were in prison after they get out of prison.
Because prison guards stick together.
No one can guarantee that they won't go in a second time.
Once you retaliate against the prison guards, when you go in a second time, hehe, let you die at the third watch, and it will never be delayed to the fifth watch.
In the time of a stick of incense, Huang Ye copied a document.
Chen Guanlou checked it once, first confirming that there were no typos. The paper was clean, and there were no places to paint. The handwriting was neat, although it couldn't be called upright and good-looking, it could be seen, and it could be seen that it had been practiced and had put in hard work.
"This document, if it were you, how would you deal with it?"
Huang Ye was highly nervous, knowing that Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen was examining him.
He pondered carefully, reviewed the content of the document, and said cautiously: "The Ministry of Justice requires the Heavenly Prison to provide data for the first quarter of this year, but didn't specify which department wants it. The signature below seems to be missing a corner, so I think this matter should not be rushed, and it is better to report to the Ministry of Justice first and ask clearly before providing the data."
Chen Guanlou nodded secretly, really quick-witted.
"The Six Shanmen sent twenty prisoners in one breath, including thieves, thieves, merchants, peddlers, and thugs from the carriage firm. What will you do?"
"Naturally, classify them and verify the identity of each prisoner against the file. After confirming that there is no error, take them into custody. Thieves and merchants are locked together, thieves and thugs are locked together."
"Why arrange it like this?"
"Being called a thief, I'm afraid they don't look down on small favors, and they must have many common topics with merchants. Just let the prison guards pay close attention, and they will definitely be able to extract some inside information. Moreover, between merchants and thieves, either there is an irreconcilable hatred, or they are colluding, and there is always a breakthrough point. As for locking thieves and thugs together, it just happens to borrow the thugs' hands to fiercely clean up the thieves." Huang Ye said so.
"What is your view on the Bing-grade prison hitting money?"
"I think this matter needs to be screened. For big thieves and big bandits, not only must they be hit, but they must be hit fiercely, and as much money as possible must be hit out. As for those who came in because of personal grievances, deal with them according to their wealth. If they cooperate actively, there is naturally no need to torture them in the interrogation room. For prisoners who choose to resist, the interrogation room will let them see the majesty of the imperial court!"
Very good!
Chen Guanlou nodded with satisfaction. Huang Ye's brain was born to be a prison guard.
"I checked your file; your father and brother were both prison guards, but they both died early. You used to mix on the street; why are you willing to be a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison? Can you endure the restraint?"
Huang Ye pondered and said: "Reporting to my lord, when I was young, I didn't understand things and made my father and brother worry a lot. Later, my father and brother passed away one after another, and there was no livelihood at home, and I was hungry, so I woke up.
People live for a lifetime, and they must have a proper livelihood. I have no other skills, but I have been influenced by what I have seen and heard since I was a child, and I still know something about the Heavenly Prison, so I came to the Heavenly Prison to serve. Over the years, I don't feel restrained, but rather free, feeling that I was born to belong here."
Chen Guanlou smiled and nodded, continuing the examination. "What do you think of Xu Fugui?"
"Prison Clerk Xu is an old senior in the Heavenly Prison, with deep roots and many connections, and can speak everywhere. The prison guards in the Bing-grade prison, although they have complaints in private, generally most of them are convinced by him. It's just that he is old, his energy can't keep up, and maybe he can't adapt to the work intensity of the Heavenly Prison."
"Do you have any dissatisfaction with him personally?"
"My lord is joking; I have no contact with Prison Clerk Xu in private, and I am not under his management. He is a senior, and I am a junior; I only have respect for him!"
Chen Guanlou narrowed his eyes and smiled.
He was very satisfied with Huang Ye's statement.
He didn't hope that the prison clerk he promoted would go to the Bing-grade prison to serve with private grievances, making the Bing-grade prison a mess. No private grievances, only respect, everything is handled according to official business, this attitude is very good. It is exactly what he needs.
Only in this way can one be unscrupulous, have no soft ribs, and be able to let go and do it.
"I understand your situation. You go down first; if there is news later, I will notify you."
"Yes!" Huang Ye didn't speak to fight for himself; he was very satisfied with his performance today. Saying more is wrong, it is better to follow orders.
When he walked to the door, Chen Guanlou suddenly asked again: "Do you have a private seal?"
Hearing this, Huang Ye couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and hurriedly turned back, bowing: "Reporting to my lord, I don't have a private seal."
Chen Guanlou was burying his head, busy flipping through documents, and casually reminded: "You can prepare a private seal; it will be useful!"
"Yes, I will prepare it when I go back."
"Use better materials, so as not to have to redo it later."
"Follow my lord's instructions!" ===== CHAPTER 1003 =====
