Chapter 114 The hope of the whole village

Since the day before yesterday, Kunshan has been rainy and miserable, and I have never seen a sunny day.

The official boat dock is now full of big men who can make Jiangnan shake. They are looking forward to it like a group of geese waiting to feed, staring at the lower reaches of Loujiang River.

After waiting for a while, everyone finally saw a snow-white sail shadow appeared in the hazy rain curtain.

"Here, come back!" People shouted excitedly. Even the dignified soldiers were full of anticipation in their eyes.

The Science slowly drove into the dock and stopped beside the pier.

Seeing the big guys gathered here on the ground in Jiangnan, Mr. Zhao was a little surprised and hurriedly bowed to greet everyone.

"The young master is finally back." Everyone saluted him together.

"Bingxian, my husband's ancestor, Zhongfu Zun, and all the parents, old gentlemen, why should I welcome you in person? I really killed Xiao Ke." Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly and returned the greeting again.

"Young Master Zhao is the hope of the whole Jiangnan," Wu Qing said excitedly: "What is our Yingyi Ying compared to what you want to do for Jiangnan?"

"The military constitution is heavy." Zhao Hao walked steadily off the boat board and greeted Wu Qing and the two prefects again.

"It's raining, let's talk about it later." Then he asked everyone to get into the car and get into the sedan chair, and don't pile it up here for people to watch the show.

Wu Qing wanted to ask Zhao Hao to sit in the same sedan chair with him. Although Lord Bingxian's eight-carriage sedan chair was more than enough to be two, Zhao Hao always felt that something was strange.

Fortunately, his carriage also came, so he invited Wu Bingxian to ride with him. Wu Qing mainly had something to say to Zhao Hao, so he naturally agreed immediately.

~~

On the carriage, Mr. Zhao first poured a glass of wine for Wu Qing, then sank his body into the sofa, and adjusted to the most comfortable position.

Wu Qing was not used to this kind of soft seat. He was interested in learning Zhao Hao's sitting posture, but he felt that it was too unofficial. So he straightened his back and put half of his butt on the edge of the chair. He looked like he was facing his superiors' subordinates.

Don’t look at him like this, in fact, this Wu Bingxian has a great background. He is from Wuxi and ranked first in the palace examination in the 23rd year of Jiajing.

Unexpectedly, when the old god Jiajing heard his name, he said, "Damn it, how could there be no ruthless top scholar in the world?" So he demoted him to Tanhua. As a result, the original Tanhua Qin Minglei picked up the top scholar for nothing.

In addition, the second place at that moment was Qu Jingchun, who was the father of Zhao Hao's new disciple Qu Rukui, and Zhao Hao's old brother Zhao Jin, who was also from this subject.

In the 40th year of Jiajing, Wu Qing presided over the Nanjing autumn examination and won thirteen Wuxi scholars in one go. The result caused dissatisfaction among the majority of candidates who failed the exam. He wrote a lilac poem to mock him, saying that there are ruthlessness and there are also emotions. Wuxi won thirteen consecutive titles. Although no problems were found after investigation, he still couldn't stand the argument and said he had returned to his hometown with illness.

Wu Qing actually has no official addiction, but she just hates that she has suffered a lifelong reputation and is unable to be at ease.

This time, he came back from the mountain with the recommendation of his fellow villagers in the same year, with the purpose of doing something for the people of Jiangnan, so as to wash away the previous shame and win the respect of his hometown again. Therefore, he attaches great importance to the "grain shipping plan" proposed by Zhao Hao. Once this matter is successful, all those involved will become heroes in Jiangnan's mind.

What's more, he, the Su Song army, manages the military preparations and defenses of the two prefectures in Suzhou and Songjiang, and no matter what, they will play an important role in it.

"If we need to do something, just speak." After pondering for a moment, Wu Qing said to Zhao Hao: "I will fully support you."

Zhao Hao nodded and said politely to him: "This time it is easier to do national policy. It is a contest of hard power. There is no chance of taking any tricks. We will discuss a charter together later, make overall arrangements, and work together to make this matter do it."

"Yes." Wu Qing emphasized the key point. He agreed with Zhao Hao's opinion very much and sighed: "I have thought about it carefully these days. This matter is really difficult and unavoidable. The current governor of Cao Zhao Yuquan is the same year I passed the first place together. I have some friendship with him. This man is strong and will never surrender easily."

Zhao Hao nodded, and he naturally knew about the biggest opposition to the mountain that had been in the sea transportation of grain.

"But I can still write to him to reason and see if I can persuade him to give in." Wu Qing said and sighed, "But I'm afraid that what he said doesn't count. The one who really decides in Huai'an is the Zhenyuan Marquis, who serves as the general general of the canal transport! Mr. Gu has been in war for his whole life, and has gone to Guangdong and Guangxi, and fought against Japanese pirates. His prestige among the canals is unrivalled. Hundreds of thousands of canals call him "Grandpa Gu". If Zhao Yuquan dares to give in, he will probably be chopped by the old marquis with a knife."

After Wu Qing finished speaking, she felt that she had destroyed her majesty and increased her ambition. She hurriedly said, "But Zhenyuan Hou Mansion is in Nanjing, can you see if you can ask Master Xu to help me talk about the envy?"

"Yes." Zhao Hao nodded, thinking that the Gu family is in Nanjing is true, but the old marquis despised Xu Pengju the most. Xu Bangrui was afraid that he would not have such great face.

The two of them were talking, and the carriage stopped in front of the three floors of Kunkaisi on Xitang Street. Before the headquarters of Jiangnan Group in Suzhou was completed, they could only borrow Kunkaisi's territory for a meeting.

~~

Zhao Hao, senior executives of the Jiangnan Group, as well as officials and gentry on the Jiangnan ground, this enlarged meeting lasted for a whole day.

Finally, with the help of a group of people, we decided to set a complete set of strategies, including the lowest and highest goals, how to achieve them step by step, what problems will be encountered, and how to solve them. As well as the enemies, allies, centrists that can be fought for, and which are chess pieces that can be used, etc., we all clarified them. We assigned tasks to everyone.

In fact, Zhao Hao had already decided on all these things during the Chinese New Year with Xu Wei and the old man. The reason why he had to spend time and energy to do it again is to make everyone go through the decision-making process and stimulate their ownership. In this way, they can do their best to do it as their own business.

Second, he was unwilling to let the officials and gentry in Jiangnan feel like he was manipulated. This would make these pretentious guys resist their own from the bottom of their hearts. So we should create a way for us to control other people's states together, so that everyone's feelings will be much better.

Don’t underestimate this feeling. If you don’t pay attention, you will bury hidden dangers.

Third, for such a big thing, of course, you have to make collective decisions and be responsible for it. If something goes wrong, don’t let me take the blame alone...

One day later, the meeting ended and the participants went back to work on their own tasks.

Although Mr. Zhao's eyelids were heavy and he wanted to sleep, he still did not return to the county government office. Instead, he came to Jinfeng Garden behind the county government office first.

Although the garden is called "Golden Wind", the east wind comes from here.
