    The heavy rain poured down, flowing down the eaves, forming a curtain of water, covering people's eyes.

    In the sound of rain, the Zhao family and his son listened to Hai Rui talk about his legendary career as a county magistrate.

    "In the thirty-seventh year of Jiajing's reign, I took Hai'an to Chun'an, Zhejiang Province to serve as county magistrate."

    "Uh, who else did you bring?" Second Master Zhao asked in a low voice.

    "Hai'an is the only one." Hai Rui said matter-of-factly: "Before that, I was a low-class Nanping teacher, and my salary was not enough to eat. I had to rely on Hai'an to open up wasteland and grow vegetables in the mountains behind the county school."

    The father and son of the Zhao family looked at Grandpa Hai who was serving tea and water.

    "Old man, what are you trying to do with him?"  Don¡¯t Tu and him have enough to eat?

    Hai An, who had all the skill points fully, naturally understood the confusion between the two of them, and said with a faint smile: "The little old man is my grandfather's book boy."

    "Oh" Zhao Shouzheng suddenly thought, "It seems I should be nicer to that person."

    "My grandfather was also a Juren and served as magistrate of Songxi County, Fujian Province. My eldest uncle was a Jinshi in Chenghua, and three uncles were also Juren, and they all served as magistrates" Hear Hai Rui explain: "Since I was a child, I have listened to the advice of my elders.  I have also practiced abroad with my uncle, so I am no stranger to all the people in the county. Naturally, I don¡¯t need to find any staff, government officials, manuscript signatures, etc"

    Zhao Hao nodded, the Hai family was considered a famous family in Qiongzhou and had been officials for generations.  No wonder he was ranked first in the national examinations. He came from a well-educated family and knew better than most scholars how to be an official!

    "I can handle all the matters inside and outside the Yamen alone." Hai Rui looked calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter that was taken for granted.  "I still have some free time to help Hai An grow vegetables in the county government office."

    "The master has transformed the back garden into a vegetable field. Not only does he grow it for himself, but the county officials also have a share." Hai'an explained for Hai Rui.

    "Oh" Mr. Zhao tried to imagine the scene of his father and son growing vegetables for everyone.  Alas, I really can¡¯t imagine it.

    "So when Haigong governs Chun'an County, he relies on the subordinate officials, clerk's office and subordinate staff of the county government?" Zhao Hao asked softly: "I heard that these people are not easy to handle, so the county magistrates have to bring  One of our own takes office.¡±

    "A bunch of losers." Hai Rui smiled contemptuously and said lightly: "With inflated selfish desires and no morals and incompetence, they will naturally not be able to convince the public. If everyone is dissatisfied, they will naturally not be able to be used by you."

    "I heard that subordinate officials have been practicing this profession for a long time and are as cunning as oil. Therefore, there is a saying that 'your official position is as clear as water, but it is difficult to defeat the officials as slippery as oil.'" Zhao Shouzheng turned over the small book in his hand and read out Zhang Zhixian's famous saying.

    "Haha, these are just excuses." Hai Rui sneered, unable to hide his contempt and said: "The dignitary of a county has the power of life and death, but he is powerless to do anything to his subordinates. There are only two reasons - one is that apart from studying,  A nerd who doesn¡¯t know how to do anything; secondly, he is too selfish, he is so messed up, yet he expects others to have clean butts?!¡±

    "Cough!" An unpleasant cough came from the old lady in the hall.

    Hai Rui immediately stood up and bowed to the end.  "My son said bad words again."

    "You can't change yourself in your lifetime, so don't bring up your children." I heard Mr. Xie say.

    "Yes." Hai Rui reluctantly agreed and glanced at Zhao Hao again, thinking that this kid has a lot more dirty words than I do

    "Hai Gong's swear words mainly reflect the richness of languages; although Zhao Gongzi can only speak Mandarin, he combines the dregs of four hundred years of national curses and is incomparable."

    ??~~

    "It is not difficult to be an upright official, as long as you are strict with yourself."

    After being scolded by my mother, Hai Rui became more serious.  Just listen to him say in a deep voice: "But an honest official does not mean a good official. A fool who only knows how to be honest and self-reliant can be as harmful as a corrupt official!"

    "So you must not only be an upright official, but also be a capable official!" Mr. Hai looked at Zhao Shouzheng full of expectations and said: "You have a son who is full of money, so naturally you disdain the people's wealth. As long as you want to, be an upright official.  It¡¯s not difficult at all.¡±

    "Yeah." Zhao Shouzheng nodded, he didn't think it was difficult.  Money is just for bastards. After spending it on your son to earn it why should you reach out to others?

    "Moreover, your action of raising funds to set up a porridge restaurant in Baiyunguan, west of Beijing, to provide relief to the refugees has shown that you have the courage to do things, do not avoid slander, and have good organizational and coordination skills." I heard Hai Rui praise him highly: "  As long as you put more thought into it, I believe you can be a good magistrate of Kunshan County!"

    "I will do my best" Zhao Shouzheng blushed upon hearing this. Zhao Hao and the eldest princess were in charge of the disaster relief work from beginning to end, but they took all the credit on themselves.

    Now, even Master Hai mistakenly thinks that he is a capable official. This is really so disturbing.

      ¡®Hey, it seems that I have to learn to be an official in a down-to-earth manner.  ¡¯ Mr. Zhao couldn¡¯t help but secretly make up his mind.  ¡®Otherwise, sooner or later, I will show my timidity.  ¡¯

    He quickly humbly asked Hai Rui for advice on how to be a good county magistrate.

    Hai Rui naturally knows everything he knows and talks about it endlessly.

    He was familiar with all aspects of a county's government affairs and was very good at summarizing, so he asked Hai'an to go to his study and give Zhao Shouzheng a copy of the "Regulations on Promoting Revolution" that he had formulated in Chun'an County.

    "As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules. Only by formulating clear and reasonable rules and regulations can officials' actions and all rewards and punishments be based on evidence."

    "This is the rule that I formulated for the main officials of the county and the six-room and three-class teams when I took office in Chun'an County. It is reasonable and applicable. Later, I also implemented it when I was in Xingguo County, and it was still effective. Zhao Zhuangyuan might as well take it  Go back and review it in detail, and then modify it based on the actual situation in Kunshan, and then it can be promulgated and implemented."

    "Thank you Mr. Hai." Zhao Shouzheng quickly took it with both hands. This is the crystallization of the wisdom of three generations of the Hai family!

    "But it's not enough to have rules, they must be strictly enforced. Otherwise, no matter how good the rules are, they will be of no use." Hai Rui said in a deep voice:

    "In addition, half of the Regulations are binding on the county magistrate himself. Believe me, as long as you can do it strictly, you will find that those slippery subordinates will become obedient."

    "Oh? Is it so magical?" Zhao Shouzheng was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly took it as if he had found a treasure.

    Zhao Hao asked Hai Rui softly: "Then, Lord Hai, if there is a conflict between the interests of the court, the gentry, and the people, how should we weigh the trade-offs?"

    "What I have always adhered to is that anything that is beneficial to the court and the people should be done without hesitation!" Hai Rui said firmly: "The reason is very simple. Now the imperial treasury is empty and the people are impoverished. The prosperous land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but  There is no place for the common people! The land and wealth are all in the hands of the powerful and wealthy!"

    "The way of heaven is to make up for the excess damage! Officials do not help the court and the people to benefit, but they want to protect the interests of the rich and powerful. Is it because you think the Ming Dynasty died too early?!" Hai Rui was aroused  The overwhelming anger, several swear words taking turns

    But this time, his mother didn¡¯t scold him.  After he finished speaking, he said softly: "Come in and eat."
