Chapter 114 Arrangement
Chen Mo looked at the banknotes in his hand and the dozens of clerks under his command.
"My adoptive father just sent me an official document asking me to go to the capital, but he did not appoint anyone to replace me, so I am still the chief of the Salt Transport Bureau."
Chen Mo did not hide the transfer of his adoptive father. This army of thousands of people is not just a few dozen people. It is impossible to hide the transfer.
"So you can't leave, you have to stay here and continue to work for me."
Chen Mo left. As long as these clerks and many salt transport chiefs and salt transport envoys are still there, the affairs of the Salt Transport Bureau can basically operate normally.
On the contrary, if these clerks are gone, the entire Salt Transport Bureau will have to stop for a while until someone comes to take over.
Therefore, although they are the personal soldiers of their adoptive father, they cannot be transferred now and still have to stay here.
"Let me tell you about the next arrangements. As long as you work steadily, there shouldn't be any major problems within half a year.
If I haven't come back by then, and there's still no one to take over this position, then have someone send me a letter, and I'll rush back to arrange things."
Chen Mo looked serious and told everyone solemnly.
Everyone bowed and accepted the order. Chen Mo explained the affairs in detail and handed over the more important matters to the two squad leaders.
I immediately took out the silver notes and arranged for them to escort them one by one. These silver notes had to be delivered to several officials.
As for the one for his adoptive father, just keep it in his hands first and give it to him later.
After arranging these matters, Chen Mo dismissed many officials, but in the end he still told them not to talk about the army's mobilization casually.
Although this matter could not be concealed, it could not be publicized all over the street.
Several officials left, and He Luoyun, who had been waiting outside early, walked in.
"Sir." He looked respectful and bowed.
"I received a transfer order and will be away from here soon. It may take a long time." Chen Mo said slowly.
He Luoyun was stunned at first, then immediately reacted and congratulated Chen Mo, "Congratulations, sir, congratulations on your promotion."
He naturally understood that with Chen Mo's background, he was definitely not punished for being transferred.
Most likely, this official position will be promoted again.
"Although I am transferred this time, I am only leaving temporarily. No one will take over my position in a short time. After I leave, the situation of the Salt Transport Bureau will remain the same as before.
During this period, everything can be kept as usual. You tell those big and small salt dealers not to mess around." Chen Mo warned in a serious tone.
"Don't worry, sir, I understand." He Luoyun bowed again.
Half a year is enough to do a lot of things, at least to make his business completely stable.
In addition, he also has a relationship with Chen Mo, so even if the next head of the Salt Transport Bureau comes, his business will definitely continue to operate.
"If someone comes to take over my position during this period, then you give this letter to him." Chen Mo took out a letter that had been written long ago.
He Luoyun is a talented person, and he does a good job, which is helpful to me.
If I really want to be transferred, I should take care of him so that he can continue to do business steadily.
In addition, when I am not here in the future, Wei Xia's family will have to be taken care of by him.
"Thank you, sir." He Luoyun took the letter with both hands, knowing its value.
With this letter, even if Chen Mo is really transferred, the next chief of the salt transport will give him some face and let him continue to work here.
"Just remember to do what I told you to do." Chen Mo smiled and reminded, and got up and walked out of the barracks.
He actually had a lot of things to take away this time, weapons and armor, and two pairs of 400-jin hammers.
These things are the real big ones, and they weigh more than a thousand jin together.
Fortunately, there are storage bags that can hold these things. I just need to prepare another carriage to load some furniture and personal belongings.
After taking away the two pairs of giant hammers that he had just made in the military camp, Chen Mo set off to return home.
Zhao Yu was asking his maids to help sort out the things that should be taken away.
"I want to hire another person to stay at home to help us look after the house. Maybe we can come back." Zhao Yu walked to Chen Mo and whispered beside him.
The thatched cottage in Xiaopao Town is not worth much money, and it is not worth spending money to have someone look after it.
And this courtyard is a bluestone house, the price is already quite expensive, and someone must be arranged to look after it and clean it frequently to prevent the house from being dilapidated.
"Okay, you can do it." Chen Mo smiled, and then lowered his voice and said, "The silver is still in the small wooden box under our bed. There should be three or four hundred taels in it. You can take as much as you need."
Since he had a storage bag, Chen Mo directly put many silver bills into the storage bag because it was more convenient.
Otherwise, he would have to go to the bank to exchange a large pile of small silver bills for large silver bills before storing them.
Therefore, nowadays, there are usually only three or four hundred taels of silver in the family's cash box for daily use.
"Okay, then I'll keep Xiao He later." Zhao Yu thought about it for a while and already had a candidate.
Among the several maids in the family, Xiao He is not the smartest one, but the most honest and dutiful one. Letting her look after the house makes him feel at ease.
Chen Mo walked into his practice room and carefully tidied it up.
He put away the cultivation insights recorded on his desk and some miscellaneous items one by one, and the most important one was the heart.
The blood and qi contained in this heart can not only be used by himself, but also absorbed by other warriors as long as they are strong enough.
Chen Mo has been to the Hong Family Market twice in the past few months. Every time he sold the heart blood that was nourished in his heart, he made a lot of money.
That is why his Qi and blood in his Transcendent Pearl have accumulated more than 50%. According to this progress, he will be able to welcome the next upgrade in four or five months.
In addition, he has not given up his martial arts practice during this period. He has cultivated the Eighteen Thunders to the ninth level.
Chen Mo is now full of energy, which is as much as 18,000 kilograms.
Not only that, under the nourishment of Wei Xia's nourishing spirit liquid, Chen Mo's consciousness has become stronger and his sense of this world has become more acute.
Fortunately, this feeling is only relatively clear, and it is far less clear than that of a Qi Refiner.
In fact, Chen Mo can now feel that there are strands of spiritual power gathering in his sea of consciousness.
He is now qualified to impact the sea of consciousness, but Chen Mo is not in a hurry to do it.
Because once the impact fails, he will inevitably face backlash. According to his idea, he will wait for a while to make sure it is safe before trying to break through.
This time, I can try to attack on the way to Beijing, because there is a lot of time on the way, which can give me time to practice slowly again.
The capital is far away from Zhuniuji, more than 6,000 miles away.
If I am alone, the speed can certainly be faster. If I burst out at full speed, I can reach Kyoto in five or six days at most.
But if I take Zhao Yu with me, it will be difficult to walk too fast, not to mention that I have to bring a lot of belongings.
Fortunately, this time I go on official business, I can change horses at the post station all the way, and I can walk one or two hundred miles a day.
These more than 6,000 miles are just over a month's work.
And there is no need to walk too fast, because my speed must be faster than that of my adoptive father.
They are thousands of soldiers, running long distances, and their speed is definitely not as fast as mine, even if they walk for a while first.
Of course, Chen Mo didn't want to catch up with the army. His adoptive father said in the letter that he was still with his relatives, so it was not easy to accompany the army.
Moreover, rushing to the capital from Zhuniuji and starting from Xiaopao Town are completely different roads.
They didn't have to go together, they could just meet in the imperial capital after a while.
Chen Mo packed up the things in the practice room, leaving only the desk and two cushions.
He took out a rather exquisite red sandalwood box from the storage ring. The wooden box was carved quite delicately, and some places were even hollowed out.
Such a red sandalwood box is worth enough to build a small bluestone courtyard.
The wooden box that Chen Mo wanted at first was just very simple, any material would do, and a few rough vents would be enough.
But after he gave the order, He Luoyun treated it as a very important matter, looking for precious materials, inviting skilled craftsmen, and spending time and effort to carefully build it.
So he had this red sandalwood box in his hand.
Put the heart into the box and cover it tightly. In order to allow it to accumulate heart blood better, it certainly cannot be placed in the storage bag.
The carriage in the courtyard has been prepared, and Zhao Yu is putting some things into the car one by one.
It will take a few days before we actually leave, so we have to start preparing in advance so that we won't panic when we leave.
"We're leaving, are you reluctant?" Chen Mo walked to Zhao Yu and asked.
"Yeah." She responded softly and hugged Chen Mo.
She had lived here for a long time, so she was reluctant to leave. The most important thing was that many things happened in this yard that made her happy.
"It's okay, no matter where we go, we'll be together." Chen Mo held her hand tightly and comforted her.
Zhao Yu nodded vigorously, she knew that Chen Mo had never broken his promise to her.
The two of them rubbed their ears for a while, and then slowly separated.
After lunch at home, Zhao Yu carefully arranged what he had to do before leaving.
The accounts that were previously posted in many shops had to be settled. These accounts were originally settled once a month. Now that he had to leave temporarily, of course he had to settle the accounts in advance.
In addition, the hired maids had to be paid and the employment documents returned to the middleman.
These are all trivial matters at home, all handled by her.
After eating, Chen Mo took out the nourishing spirit liquid and swallowed it to practice.
The nourishing spirit liquid is different from the power of blood and qi. He can't absorb it unlimitedly, but can only slowly absorb the power from it.
The nourishing spirit liquid condensed by Wei Xia is enough for Chen Mo to use, and even more than enough.
For the extra part, he originally planned to wait for a few months, and then sell it after the annual auction of Hongjiafang City.
But now it seems that there is no such opportunity, but he can go to Beijing to sell it, and I think it should also have a good price.
After practicing until the early morning, Chen Mo quietly left home. Since he was leaving, he must tell Wei Xia about this.
By the way, he also saw if she was willing to go with him.
