Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 40: Wind and Rain
"The Miao family also has a lot of investments in the northwest. We have to consider this. At least for now, we can't tear ourselves apart with the Miao family. I don't want to make the empire suspect me even more because of this. But this method is a good way In addition to the mines owned by the Miao family, there are many rich mines in the south of Lulong. I think they should be able to find suitable buyers, but I don’t know whether these merchants will believe that we can recover Lulong in a short period of time? If we If you can’t recover, how can you explain it?” Wufeng has already made up his mind, but he thinks further, since Lu Long can do this, why can’t he follow suit in other places in the future?
"Hey, my lord, although the people of Taiping are famous for a while, their foundation is not solid. Those who are truly far-sighted will not fail to see this. , the accuracy of judging things even exceeds that of our government officials. You must not underestimate them. Huge benefits and high risks coexist. How can there be a free lunch in the world? If Lulong is in our hands, why should we recruit people? Come on, businessmen will naturally go after it, and it’s not in our hands right now, which is interesting. Those who dare to take risks will often have high returns, and I believe those businessmen should be more aware of this than us.” Su Minshun replied confidently He said, "Don't worry, my lord. If I'm not sure, Minshun won't bring it up. I have already quietly asked someone to find out the bottom line yesterday. Although it's not many, they are all interested in big customers with some strength. If my lord If you agree to this plan, you can let the people from the Department of Finance and the Economic Development Department take care of it.”
Looking at the other party appreciatively, Wufeng felt relieved for a while, and finally he did not live up to his expectations. This guy's vision has surpassed the gains and losses of one city and one place in Guide, and he can see farther. I have already understood it, and I have actively thought of a solution for myself. If this plan can be implemented smoothly, it will really give me a big breather.
"Well, it's not too late, Minshun, you should contact me first, and I will immediately notify Xiao Tang to send someone to negotiate and deal with it. Except for the ones that belong to the Miao family, other government-run mines can be sold first. Concerned about other things, act in a hurry, let’s talk about the future, just like you said, in the future, I don’t know what it will be like in the future.” Wufeng no longer hesitated, and made a decisive decision.
"It's just that before the matter is decided, don't say anything. We can discuss with those who are really interested. It is best to determine a few buyers before that. Once the matter is decided, sign the contract immediately, and let them enter our finances immediately. I think Xiao Tang is really going to be cornered now, hehe." Wu Feng thought for a while and added.
"Well, don't worry, my lord, Minshun knows." Su Minshun also knows the details and importance of this, and dare not ignore it.
Putting down a stone, Wufeng raised his head and closed his eyes again. The carriage was running on the road and swayed slightly. The cool wind came in from the window, which was very pleasant. Right." Wufeng thought silently in his heart.
Gu Dengyun took a sip of tea, savored it carefully, and slowly put the teacup back on the desk. The fragrance of the tea slowly lingered in his tongue, but he was seriously thinking about the problem in his mind. It has been more than a year in Kansai, and the entire Gu family network has been fully mobilized. Even if the entire Kansai was controlled by the Taiping Army, it did not affect Gu Dengyun's progress in building the Kansai intelligence network. After more than a year of hard work, the intelligence network of the six Kansai prefectures has basically taken shape, and has begun to provide intelligence information continuously. Gu Dengyun himself is very proud of this.
After receiving the urgent message from the Northwest Headquarters, Gu Dengyun acted immediately. Although he didn't know what the intention was, he asked him to focus on investigating the situation of the Taiping Army garrisons in Xikang and Bashan prefectures near the Dahengduan Mountains and Finding out the local gentry's attitude towards the situation of the two prefectures under the control of the Taiping Sect, this made him keenly feel that maybe Li Wufeng would make some big moves again, but at this time he had no time to think too much, and all the personnel who could be mobilized had been quietly Arranged, everything is implemented according to their own intentions.
But Mr. Li's thinking seems to be far more than just achieving the results now. Gu Dengyun was both excited and looking forward to the indistinct meaning revealed in the urgent mail, and there was also a little nervousness in the middle. The first test of my ability has been passed. The establishment of the intelligence system of the six Kansai prefectures has not disappointed the other party, and the speed and accuracy of the intelligence information have also satisfied the superior. Now Master Li instructed in the letter that he can Expand the scope of intelligence collection, don't limit it to one county in Kansai, the surrounding areas can be included in the scope of collection, Master Li's appetite is really not small!
After completely jumping out of the circle of Jianghu sects and entering the thrilling intelligence career, Gu Dengyun discovered that the world is so big, so wonderful and complex, the center and the local, the local and the local, the wealthy gentry and the government, the government and the government in the empire. The countless complicated relationships and struggles in the military have become the targets of his work, all of which made him fall into a state of frantic work.
He likes a challenging life, only to find out how naive and boring he is to indulge in the fights and kills among martial arts fellows of the rivers and lakes. Scenic history is like a child's play house. Gu Dengyun knew that he, like all men, longed for power, longed for greater and more power, and longed to control the fate of others.
He knew that he had seized an opportunity right now. Li Wufeng gave him a chance to change his destiny, and he had to grasp it firmly. The scheming and mind of his boss were far beyond anyone's expectations, but Gu Dengyun did He vaguely knew that although he had only stayed by the other party's side for less than two months, it was these two months that allowed him to complete the complete transformation of his mind from a son of a powerful family to a government official. Yue's words and deeds have had an indescribable impact on his life, making him feel that being able to follow this seemingly peaceful and leisurely master may be the greatest opportunity in his life.
Shaking his head, Gu Dengyun seemed to want to put all his selfish distractions aside. Of course, all of this is related to his future life, but the most important thing at present is to do the job right now. The neighboring areas of Kansai naturally refer to the Tiannan, Sanjiang and Wuhu areas. Gu Dengyun can even feel the burning eyes of his boss looking at the neighboring areas. Of course, he cannot let him down. It is always the best way to walk in front of others. s method.
Yu Chibin greeted the awkward old man in front of him in a friendly manner. The luxurious service on the other side proved his status was unusual, but in front of Yu Chibin, he seemed to be a subordinate.
"Come, come, come, Duke Jacques, sit down, we are old friends, you don't have to be so polite." Yu Chibin smiled all over his face, and took the other's hand affectionately to sit down.
"Master Yuchi, you are too polite. If you hadn't come to help me this time, I'm afraid we would all be prisoners of the Kamans." Inspired by Yuchibin's enthusiasm, the old man's lean face emerged. A trace of rare blush, again and again.
"Hehe, you are too polite. We are all a family now. Princess Anne has been engaged to Mrs. Li. I believe the wedding will be held in the near future. Isn't it too strange for Mrs. Jacques to say that? Out?" Yu Chibin smiled calmly.
"Oh? Engaged? Getting married?" The thin old man was taken aback for a moment. Although he had heard some rumors indistinctly, he had never received any real news. The words couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and then immediately asked: "Master Yuchi, is your news true? Why have I never heard the Grand Duke mention it?"
"Hey, it's absolutely accurate. Princess Anne and our lord Li are a perfect match, and this was proposed by your grand duke before the war." Yu Chibin blinked, and smiled secretly: "Maybe your grand duke has a lot of energy. Decline and poor health, leading to memory loss? This time the Kamanian invasion really caused Grand Duke Alan to suffer a lot, and it also caused great harm to his body."
"Huh?" The thin old man seemed to taste something all of a sudden, but he couldn't grasp the fleeting feeling, and asked cautiously: "Master Yuchi, you seem to have something in your words? Why are you so old? I don't quite understand."
"Hehe, Duke Jacques, I heard that you are highly respected and highly regarded in the court. Why doesn't your Grand Duke seem to think highly of you?" Yu Chibin didn't answer the other party's question, but Move the topic to another side.
Frowning in embarrassment~IndoMTL.com~ The thin old man laughed, and said with a smile: "Master Yuchi seems to understand our court affairs very clearly, hehe, since you know, then Why ask me? The Grand Duke has his own arrangements, and we, the courtiers, can only obey."
"Well, Grand Duke Alan seems to be too old, and his physical condition is not very good. Such heavy work has a great impact on his health. I think you should take on more work, Duke Jacques. It's right to share your worries for the Duke." Yu Chibin grinned and said casually.
There was a flash of light in the eyes of the thin old man, and a trace of extreme excitement and joy passed by, as if he understood something, but he immediately restrained his emotions, and replied lightly: "Grand Duke Lan Meng seems to be more mature than me." It's suitable, I have been idle for many years, and I am not very familiar with many things."
"Really? But our lord Li has always respected the duke very much. He also recommended it to your grand duke when he left, and asked us to help you more. I think you should stop pushing, my lord. , we should be able to cooperate with each other tacitly, and the Kaman people are still eyeing them, and the enemy is at hand, and we really need to work closely together to defend against the foreign invaders." Yu Chibin didn't care about the thin old man's words, and continued on.
Hearing what Yu Chibin said, the thin old man still doesn't understand the mystery of this. Years of idleness have long made him long to return to the time when he was in charge of power in the past. He is long, but the entire northwest stands behind him. Right now, Merrington is already in the hands of the opponent, and his words are even more influential than those of anyone in this city. As long as there are conditions to discuss, everything else can be discussed. The lean old man has already begun to figure out how to use this opportunity to regain his second glory in his official career.
