Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 2 Entrepreneurship (1)

In the next ten days or so, Wufeng and Xiao Tang attended the banquet organized by the famous merchants of Qingyang Mansion on time to thank Wufeng and his troops for their great contribution to defending Qingyang City. It is also not rejecting all comers, participating in person one by one, and constantly cheering up the businessmen, encouraging them to expand their business. During the feasting, the merchants intentionally or unintentionally asked Wufeng and his army if they needed support and help. The merchants were willing to do their best to meet the needs of Wufeng and his troops as much as they could. It was straightforward to ask how much money, food and material support he was willing to provide, but Wufeng declined all of them politely with a smile, and told them that when they needed their support, they would raise it at an appropriate time, which made the merchants feel a little nervous. Frightened and uneasy, I don't know what kind of request Wufeng will make.

----Through a few days of observation and conversation, combined with the information he has, Wu Feng has a certain understanding of the situation of these businessmen.

----Due to the continuous war for more than ten years, Qingyang Prefecture's economy is actually on the verge of collapse. Many people fled with their families to escape the war. The population has dropped sharply to less than 150,000 now, and the urban population is less than 100,000. The industry has almost come to a standstill, and the historically famous leather processing industry has only a few larger workshops lingering on its last legs. Bankruptcy is emigration. The originally prosperous commercial trade gradually shrank because the Luobei people controlled the main passage to the west. Later, as the wars became more frequent and the social security deteriorated, horse thieves and robbers appeared everywhere. The territory of the mansion was not guaranteed, and the commerce and trade plummeted accordingly. Qingyang Mansion, which was at its peak, declined from then on, worsening day by day.

---- Due to the situation, the local businessmen moved their workshops, shops and even small families to other places one after another to seek another development. Some even moved their whole family out and never came back. Those who stay in the local area are also determined to pay attention, and if the situation is not right, they will close the door and leave. But now Wufeng leads the imperial army to defeat the strong with the weak and the many with the few. The news of the defeat of the Luobei people has spread quickly throughout the empire, and has a great influence on the surrounding countries. Moreover, Wufeng also expressed that he will lead his own army The army stayed in Qingyang and continued to protect the safety of Qingyang Mansion. This immediately ignited the long-disappeared hopes of the local businessmen, and even many businessmen who had left Qingyang long ago and businessmen from other places were also full of expectations.

---- After all, the geographical location of Qingyang Prefecture is very superior. The northwest is close to the Tengger Prairie, the raw material producing area of ​​leather, and there has always been a tradition of leather processing, and the labor resources (skilled workers) are relatively relatively large. more importantly, it is an important passage from the northern part of the Eastern Continent to the Central Continent and the Western Continent. Since the north-south Dahengduan Mountains lie between the Central Continent and the Eastern Continent, not only is the terrain steep and precipitous, but the surrounding area is full of The undeveloped primeval forest cannot be crossed at all. Only in the north and south of it is a plain, which naturally becomes the upper passage connecting the two continents of the Central Continent, the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent. Qingyang Mansion is also in the The throat position of this large passage to the north. In addition, Qingyang Prefecture has a vast territory and is the largest among the six prefectures in Northwest County. The land is fertile and rich in food. The surrounding areas are rich in products and many specialties. It is the best place to become a material distribution center.

----These businessmen who are still staying in Qingyang Mansion and want to return to Qingyang Mansion are naturally divided into two types. Merchants, the other type is the merchants who use the special geographical location to engage in commodity trade. The former type is represented by the Zhan family, and the latter type is headed by the Wei family. In short, the two types of businessmen constitute the current upper class of Qingyang Prefecture, while The landlord forces that are more common in other places have been almost completely wiped out in Qingyang due to repeated raids and looting by the Luobei people for more than ten years. Except for the farmers farming land on the edge of the city and near the borders of other prefectures, the rest of Qingyang Prefecture is basically deserted, especially in the western and northern areas close to the Luobei territory, it is rare to see human habitation for dozens of miles .

----Wufeng's appointment announcement was sent by the Express Post on October 28. After learning that Wufeng was really appointed as Qingyang City Guard, the residents in the city spontaneously set off firecrackers to commemorate Congratulations made Wufeng very moved, and also deepened the trust of the businessmen in Wufeng.

----Ten days passed quickly, Wufeng participated in the celebration banquet prepared by various businessmen for him, and on the other hand urged Xiao Tang to hurry up and set up an administrative agency, during which Mo Lun and Su Minshun also came as promised When he arrived in Qingyang, Wufeng was very happy, but due to time constraints, he asked the two of them to go to work immediately and assist Xiao Tang to complete the task he had given him.

----At the same time, on the second day after receiving the appointment, Wufeng announced that he would split the Qingyang Mansion Guard Division into two, and issued the first order to serve as the guard of the Qingyang Mansion City. , Liang Chongxin was appointed as the head of the First Security Division of Qingyang Prefecture in the Northwest County of the Empire, Mu Lige was appointed as the Deputy Head of the Division, Cui Wenxiu was appointed as the Head of the Second Security Division of Qingyang Prefecture in the Northwest County of the Empire, and Kamapo Husband served as the deputy head of the division, and Kang Jianguo served as the head of his personal guard brigade. And Lu Man is temporarily out of office, but is in charge of the logistics work of the entire army of Qingyang Prefecture.

----The arrival of Mo and Su greatly relieved Xiao Tang's pressure. After a few contacts, Xiao Tang discovered that the two were really capable, and the three of them became close friends who talked about everything. No wonder Wufeng is full of confidence in the two, especially Mo Lun in terms of internal affairs and judicial management, Su Minshun is very good at business management, even Xiao Tang appreciates it very much.

----With the full support and cooperation of the two, the establishment of administrative organs in Qingyang Prefecture went smoothly. In office, Xiao Tang had to discuss privately several times with Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu, hoping to select some talents from the army officers and soldiers to fill the local administrative organs. The manpower was not enough, no one was willing to let it go, Xiao Tang negotiated many times, but all returned without success, worrying Xiao, Mo and Su couldn't sleep or eat. In the end, after several discussions, the three decided that they had to find Wufeng to coordinate, otherwise the task would not be completed on schedule.

---- At this time, Wufeng was indulging in the love game with Lu Xianxian. He accidentally ran into Lu Yunshan and Lu Xianxian's grandfather and grandson at several banquets. With the help of someone with a heart, the relationship between Wufeng and Lu Xianxian quickly became close.

----When the three of Xiao and Tang came to Wufeng's study in the Chengshou Mansion, Wufeng was having a heart-to-heart talk with Lu Xianxian intimately. Tease the deer slender so that the flowers and branches tremble. Before the three of Xiao and Tang approached the door of the study, they heard Lu Xianxian's giggling laughter from the room, "This kid, born with a romantic life, wherever he goes, there are women." Mo Lun sighed.

----"It's not only the fate of the peach blossoms, but also the fate of blessings. Unlike the three of us, we can tell that it is the fate of hard work." Su Minshun also echoed.

----"You can't say that, a superior person has his own work arrangement, but our boss is too good at enjoying it." Xiao Tang was also a little envious, "Everyone has his own destiny, However, I still like my current busy but fulfilling life, and I believe you both feel the same way."

----Mo Lun and Su Minshun looked at each other, and they both nodded in agreement.

----When the three of them stepped into Wufeng's spacious study room, Wufeng's gleeful face immediately turned into a bitter gourd. After discussing, he got up and left immediately, "Brother Li, you have to talk first, I'll come back tomorrow." The delicate body quickly disappeared into the room.

----"Didn't we agree, there is nothing particularly serious, the three of you can just decide, it's a big disappointment, it seems that we are going to succeed..." Wufeng looked at the disappearing figure More than regret.

----"My lord, we don't want to disturb your good affairs, but you have to come forward. Who asked you to arrange so many things for us." Xiao Tang complained endlessly.

----"Yeah, you can still enjoy it easily, our hair is almost exhausted." Su Minshun also complained.

----"You can't say that, the division of labor is different, well, if you have any questions, just talk about it." Wufeng quickly stopped the conversation of the three of them, and asked about the business.

----When the three of them reported the specific difficulties they had, Wufeng also felt that it was indeed a problem. Now Qingyang City is in the most difficult initial stage. After the war, the total number of residents is less than fifteen. It is obviously unrealistic to select a certain number of talents in a short period of time. How to solve this contradiction is directly related to the future development of Qingyang Mansion. However, there are certain difficulties in the transfer from the army proposed by the three. In this battle, the army suffered a considerable loss. In addition, due to strategic needs, I expanded a division that was already understaffed into two divisions. The gap in personnel appears to be even greater. If you want to transfer from the army now, it will inevitably affect the construction and development of the army. I am afraid that the ideological work of Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu will be difficult to get through~IndoMTL.com~Wufeng after careful consideration , Liang and Cui were notified, and after intense discussions and negotiations, both sides finally felt that the plan proposed by Wufeng was the most suitable and could accept it. However, it is not allowed to select from the existing troops that have been formed. After the selection, the remaining personnel will be divided equally between the two divisions that Liang and Cui belong to.

----When several people returned satisfied, Wufeng was still thinking about it. The problem of talents is one of the biggest problems at present, especially the development and construction of a place is inseparable from the support of enough talents , I should be soberly aware of the current bad situation. The ancients said that it is difficult to conquer the country, but it is even more difficult to sit on the country. It seems that there is indeed a reason for him.

---- Just when everyone was devoting themselves to the preparation work in full swing, the special envoy from the imperial capital also arrived in Qingyang with the official appointment of His Majesty the Emperor. Because the appointments obtained some time ago were only reported through the post newspaper, and now they are the official official appointments. The special envoy is from the General Administration of the Empire. It is a middle-aged man in his forties named Pu Shide. He looks normal, but Wufeng always feels that this person is not as simple as he looks.

---- At the reception banquet. Wu Feng invited several famous local gentry in Qingyang Prefecture, including Zhan Zhaobai and Wei Dongchen, and he himself accompanied Xiao Tang. The next day, when Pu Shide was about to leave and return to the imperial capital, he asked to have an interview with Wufeng alone. Wu Feng invited him to the study and ordered the guards not to disturb him. Pu Shide took out a secret letter, Wu Feng read it and returned it to Pu Shide, and Pu Shide destroyed the secret letter face to face. no front. I would like to express my gratitude to His Majesty for your concern. If you have any difficulties, please ask for your support
