The face of the transport envoy fell all over the place with crackling noises all the way. The walking horse bearer who was patrolling various places and specializing in making reports had a low eyebrow. The officials at all levels on the Guizhou road, as well as the landlords and gentry, and the tribal leaders who came to have a drink today met again.

To Xiao Cheng's power and domineering power.

Normally, he would smile and look cheerful in front of them, just like the comforting messenger of Bodhisattva. After this thunderous side was revealed in front of everyone, some people who were still half-hearted in their hearts immediately gave up.

The transporter was just slapped in the face. If it were his turn, he would probably lose his face.

It’s better to behave honestly in front of Xiao Futai!

As for that envoy Hu?

What did he say?

Did you hear that?

Oh, I bet no one heard it!

What should he do next if he calls someone to talk?

Tomorrow the banquet is over and those who should go home will go home. There are too many things going on in the house and there is no time to stay here.

What if he comes to your door?

Hey, who makes us good officials who care about the people! Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, most of the time is spent running around outside. This is what Xiao Futai praised for doing practical things for the people, going to the fields

Go to the land and serve as an official in front of the people.

Those officials who stayed in the yamen all day and only read documents would be scolded bloody by Xiao Futai.

So, Hu Zhuan, you came at the wrong time, and I happened to be not at home!

You can't embarrass a good official like Xiaguan who is dedicated to serving the people, right?

If you really dare to embarrass me, my subordinates also have the right to participate in the performance, so I can come up and participate in your performance.

Even if I don’t have the right to participate, I can jointly invite people who have the right to participate to join you.

Complain, who wouldn’t?

Before the banquet was finished, the gods who had seen the drama just now had already made plans in their minds on how to deal with this transporter in the future.

Anyway, I have to be polite for the sake of face.

However, things will definitely not be done for you.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. They all looked understanding. They nodded to each other, raised their eyebrows, pursed their lips, and smiled like thousand-year-old foxes.

"It can be handled more smoothly. Why make it so embarrassing?" Old Master Cen drank another glass of wine and sighed: "The article of Ambassador Hu Zhuan is still good, and the poems are also very good."

"No!" Xiao Cheng and Cen Zhong said in unison, their heads moving like rattles.

The two looked at each other and both laughed, but Cen Zhong continued: "Father, you have never been in the officialdom, so you don't know the key points here. There is no way that what happened today will go well. I don't see it."

The bloody sword and sword shadow! If Chongwen didn't knock Hu Yi's majesty to the ground on the spot today and then step on his feet, I'm afraid that the transfer envoy will make trouble next time on the Guizhou road. Instead of it in the future

The trouble is getting out of hand, why don't we let everyone understand the truth today, follow Xiao Futai and become prosperous, and follow Hu Zhuanzhuan, then we can go home and prepare the coffin!"

Listening to his son's words, Master Cen's face became a little confused. What does it mean to have never been in the officialdom? This is a covert discrimination against me for not passing the imperial examination!

But you two Jinshi were taught by me.

He snorted and stood up and left the table, "Drink enough, go back to sleep!"

Xiao Cheng quickly waved, and two servants came over immediately, caressing the old man on the left and right as he walked towards the back office.

"Senior brother said the wrong thing and hit the old man's weakness!" Xiao Cheng said with a genuine smile.

"It doesn't matter. I'll bring a jar of your good wine and go have a drink with him tomorrow. It will be fine of course. How can father and son have an overnight feud?" Cen Chong said with a genuine smile.

"This fruit wine is indeed not very strong. How about drinking it somewhere else?" Xiao Cheng said in a low voice.

"I've had this intention for a long time!" Cen Chong said happily.

The two stood up, and Xiao Cheng said to everyone: "Cen Futai and I have some matters to discuss. You guys should eat and drink well!"

Everyone stood up and gave each other a hand. Speaking of which, everyone felt uncomfortable drinking with these two people at the same table. As soon as the two of them left, everyone could completely let go.

As soon as the two of them walked through the next door, they heard shouts and shouts coming from behind them, and they couldn't help but look at each other and smile.

The wine we drank outside was very low in alcohol content.

This year's Guizhou road is said to have a bumper harvest, but after Xiao Cheng annexed Luo's Ghost Country and other places, the food is seen to be insufficient again, and it has to be saved!

Without a certain amount of food reserves, I would not know what to do.

So on Guizhou Road, wine making is still a prohibited industry. Only a few people have this qualification, and the ones sold outside are also limited. Basically, the wine in the pub is either fruit wine or grain wine mixed with water. Then

The weak taste of wine is not the result of high alcohol content!

Of course, the two of them avoided the crowd, not because they were really craving for some good wine.

One Futai from Guizhou Road and the other from Guangnan West Road are both very respected people, and they are both standing members of the federation. Naturally, they have many opinions to be exchanged frankly.

But one thing is certain, these two are not so loyal to the imperial court.

In fact, Cen Zhong struggled with this matter for a long time.

After all, he had been reading books since he was a child and received traditional education. The four words of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism were still deeply imprinted in his heart.

Here, loyalty to the emperor comes first.

Later, Xiao Cheng told him that you cannot rely on the king, nor can you support him. Only China can rely on and support. They, scholar-bureaucrats, have more responsibility to maintain Chinese culture, carry forward Chinese culture, and spread Chinese culture to a wider scope.

To spread, to occupy.

Wherever the sun shines, there are Chinese characters, rituals, music, poems, and customs. This is the mission of a serious scholar-bureaucrat.

Compared with this, the so-called loyalty to the emperor and patriotism of serving one family and one name is really just a gadget that cannot be put on the table.

Cen Zhong went back and thought carefully about Xiao Cheng's words. The more he thought about it, the more sense it made, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

This thing is very exciting!

For people like Cen Zhong, once the barriers in their minds are broken, they can often burst out with amazing strength and wisdom.

And they also have the ability to stand on the commanding heights of morality and write fair explanations for all their actions, so that their actions are not only reasonable, but also reasonable. Of course, whether it is legal or not is another matter. For now, then,

Naturally, it is against the laws of the Song Dynasty, but if they win in the future, then they will be the pioneers, and naturally there will be no problem.

"The military reorganization on Guangnan West Road has begun, but the resistance is not small!" Cen Zhong said while sipping the extremely high-alcohol shochu: "It can't be compared with what you have here. By this time next year, if you can complete the preliminary reorganization, it will be considered a high-quality burner.

.”

"The first thing is to maintain an army that is absolutely loyal and has superior combat power than anyone else." Xiao Cheng turned the wine glass and said. "You have already accomplished this. The next step is to recruit a group and fight.

It’s an ancient trick of helping a group of people.”

"I'm different from you. I'm still a little worried that the imperial court will transfer me away at any time. You've also seen it. With the situation around you now, how can the capital be assured that I stay here?"

"Isn't this simple?" Xiao Cheng sneered: "Once there is news from the capital that they want to move you, then create something in Guangnan West Road to let them understand that once you leave, Guangnan West Road

The road is about to be in chaos, and Yi Xia's temperament, which does not seek merit but seeks no faults, will inevitably cease."

"Zhao Yuan will definitely enter the capital hall." Cen Zhong said: "It is just an excess to correct every hole now. Once this person enters the capital hall, he will use his methods and add hostility to us.

, will definitely push this matter forward at all costs.”

"It will take at least a few years before he wants to join the capital hall. After these few years, is it possible that you haven't completed your deployment on Guangnan West Road? If I really want to transfer you then, you will resign and just quit.

Isn’t Guangnan West Road good for elderly care?”

Cen Zhong couldn't help laughing.

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Cen Zhong suddenly said: "In the process of reorganizing the army, I am diluting Wei Wu's military power. This guy is very complaining. You don't blame me, do you? He sees it as something in his pocket."

I am also ready to give it to others."

"Understood!" Xiao Cheng said: "Even if we are brothers, we still have to settle accounts clearly! Wei Wubi is actually the person in my pocket. I will write to him and ask him to be honest. If he is with you

It’s really outrageous over there, so just tell him to come back.”

"That's not the case!" Cen Chong said with a smile: "If you do this, the generals on the west road of Guangnan will think that I, Cen Chong, have a cold nature. Without Wei Wu's two years of hard work, how could I have been so easy to sit down?

To where you are now?"

"I will discuss the joints here with him in detail!" Xiao Cheng said with a smile.

"That's good enough!" Cen Zhong nodded and said, "Tell me, what compensation do you want? If I owe you too many favors, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay them back in the future."

"Eldest brother is open!" Xiao Cheng said: "Find a good harbor in Leizhou for the Zheng family. The Federation will next build a large shipyard on the Leizhou Peninsula and train sailors there."

"This matter is easy to handle!" Cen Zhong said: "But is it necessary to launch a large-scale navy now? The investment in the navy is too big! Besides, it is not a good thing for the Zheng family to become too powerful.

At sea, we have too little power to restrain him. We cannot completely rely on the love between Han Tong and his son-in-law. Firstly, it is not reliable, and secondly, it cannot last long."

"So I want to expand the navy!" Xiao Cheng said: "We don't have money, so we can't do it quickly, but there are still a lot of maritime merchants on the Liangzhe Road and Fujian Road. Bringing them in will naturally

It has formed a restriction on the Zheng family."

"I understand!" Cen Zhong suddenly realized: "It is precisely because he is worried that the Zheng family will be uncontrollable, so he has to quickly expand the scale and introduce other forces so that he can get things done without spending his own money."

"In addition, we can also have a navy that is powerful enough to sweep the world!" Xiao Cheng said: "Elder brother, the world is far bigger than you and I imagine. From now on, whoever has a powerful navy can control the ocean.

If you control the ocean, you can get the greatest benefits."
