Chapter 1111 Echoes of Time and Space
The system is counting down and time is passing.
Shen Zheng's heart calmed down.
She began to think about the benefits of walkie-talkies.
In military defense, walkie-talkies can significantly shorten command time and change battlefield situations. Especially during reconnaissance and surprise attacks, they can definitely catch the enemy off guard.
In urban management, walkie-talkies can also reduce the need for "running errands" and allow instructions to be implemented quickly. For example, when Zhao Xiu and his colleagues encounter an emergency while patrolling the streets, they can immediately call for reinforcements, deploy troops in advance, or block the road.
Walkie-talkies are also very useful in commerce and transportation. Especially when caravans are traveling long distances, walkie-talkies allow pioneers to scout the way ahead. If there are any unexpected situations ahead, the team can adjust the route or activate defenses in a timely manner.
In geological exploration, such as mining, real-time communication via walkie-talkies can improve both exploration efficiency and worker safety.
These benefits made Shen Zheng truly understand that for the Great Zhou, walkie-talkies were truly a product that transcended its time.
But the system only gave her five walkie-talkies.
Don’t worry about scarcity but inequality.
So... unless it was an emergency, she would never take out the walkie-talkie.
After taking a deep breath, Shen Zheng stretched out her finger again and gently clicked "Receive".
Five pitch-black walkie-talkies appeared before her.
The walkie-talkie body is only the size of a palm and can be held in one hand. There is an antenna on the head and a hand-cranked generator handle embedded on the back.
Shen Zheng slowly picked up the two, which weighed about eight taels, much heavier than the walkie-talkies she was familiar with.
After looking around for a while, she pressed the power button on the side.
The small glass light next to the power button flashed. She was dazed for a moment and tuned the two walkie-talkies to the same frequency.
After adjusting it, she picked up one of them, put the other back on the table, and pressed the call button with trembling fingers.
"Tong...Tong'an Shen Zheng, testing call."
"Zi--Tong...Tong'an Shen Zheng, testing the call."
Shen Zheng heard the echoes of time and space.
Although she knew this was normal, she couldn't help but tear up.
Swallowing the air stuck in her throat, she secretly cleared her throat and pressed the call button again: "I am Shen Zheng, I am in Da Zhou."
"I'm Shen Zheng, I'm in Da Zhou." Another response came from the intercom.
Shen Zheng's eyes gradually became moist.
It has only been a year and a half since she came to the Great Zhou, but it feels like a lifetime ago.
Walkie-talkie...
At this moment, she didn't know how to describe her feelings.
There is so much I want to say, but so little I dare to say.
She pressed the call button again, opened her mouth several times, and finally said, "Tong, thank you."
"Tong, thank you." The intercom on the table also said.
Although you froze Liuyang Mansion's points, thank you for coming to this world.
The system screen flickered twice noticeably, as if in response.
Shen Zheng was slightly delighted. She reached out and tapped it, then asked, "Can you really hear it?"
The screen flashed twice more.
Just when Shen Zheng thought it had communicated with spirits, a cold mechanical voice rang out: "Again, warning, the host is not allowed to take the initiative to serve as the first chief of a region in order to defraud prosperity points and unlock gift packs."
"......" Shen Zheng was depressed.
It's like flirting with a blind man!
After checking the system again and making sure that there was no lost gift package, Shen Zheng carefully put away the walkie-talkie and left the courtyard humming a song.
As soon as she passed through the hanging flower gate, she saw Xu Yunyan standing in the corridor in a green official robe. Her eyes lit up again and again when she saw him, and she quickened her pace and walked over.
"Handsome..." Shen Zheng felt that at this moment, the only difference between herself and the gangster was a whistle. "Xiao Xu, this official robe... suits you so well!"
Why didn’t I realize before that Xu Yunyan was a little white?
It turns out that green makes the skin look whiter.
Xu Yunyan looked at Shen Zheng with a smile, "Sir, please stop teasing me."
"Come on, come on." Shen Zheng walked towards the study and said to him, "Let the uncle and the others take a look. You should also listen to the handover matters at the government office."
"Yes." Xu Yunyan followed.
As his clothes fluttered, he lowered his head again and glanced at himself quietly.
......
There were many things that needed to be handed over at the government office, so Shen Zheng and others had lunch directly in the study.
After dinner, they set a time to go to the government office.
"Let's set off after dinner today." Yu Zhengqing wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said to Shen Zheng, "Tomorrow at noon, you and I will have to go to the main hall of the government office to perform a formal handover ceremony. I will then take you to meet the people."
Shen Zheng took a sip of tea and nodded in agreement.
The handover of the prefectural government is a big deal. If she wasn't familiar with Yu Zhengqing, she wouldn't know how busy tomorrow would be.
Especially those documents in the government office, if you don’t have someone familiar to guide you, you will probably be dizzy and not be able to figure it out.
Thinking about it, Shen Zheng suddenly remembered something and asked, "Master Yu, Xiao Xu has been appointed as the administrative officer this time. What about the former administrative officer? Will he also accompany you back to the capital to report on his work?"
She and Xu Yunyan held two official positions at once, and she didn't know what the other officials in the government office would think.
"Wang Huaian? He's staying in Liuyang Mansion." Yu Zhengqing said, "He wasn't brought here by me, so he can't follow me back to the capital to report on his duties. But this time, Your Majesty appointed Xu Yunyan to the top position and also granted him a good place to go. Actually, he should be thanking you."
"Is that so..." Shen Zheng felt relieved and asked curiously, "Where did His Majesty arrange for him to go?"
"The Accounting Office." Yu Zhengqing said directly: "Ren is the director of the Accounting Office, and he is also a seventh-rank official."
Accounting Office?
Shen Zheng pondered it secretly.
The Siji Office was directly under the Ministry of Revenue and was the "financial supervision department" established by the imperial court in various prefectures and cities. It had the right to verify the account books of various departments in the prefectures and cities.
To put it bluntly, the Siji Suo was an auditing department sent by the imperial court to specifically catch the faults of various departments.
In addition, with the support of the Ministry of Revenue and the boss Ji Benchang, all the departments in the prefectures and cities had to give some face to the people from the Accounting Office when they met them.
Just as Yu Zhengqing said, the Accounting Institute is indeed an excellent place to go.
Shen Zheng said, "If I remember correctly, the position of Director of the Ministry of Accounting is a sinecure, right? Furthermore, promotions are very stable. Every three years, the Ministry of Personnel directly reviews your position. If the review is correct, you can be promoted from Director to Deputy Director, a huge jump. After three years, you can continue the review and be promoted to Director. It's much easier than getting promoted through experience in the government office."
"That's right, that's why I said he got a great deal and he should thank you." Yu Zhengqing smiled and said, "Besides, the accounting office is very close to his home, which makes it convenient for him to go back and take care of his parents. Don't worry, Xu Yunyan is your man, and His Majesty will not let him offend anyone as soon as he enters the government office."
Shen Zheng choked on her tea when she heard this, "Look at what you said..."
Xu Yunyan is hers, and telling others about it will cause misunderstanding.
