Chapter 118

"Oh, in the previous dynasty, our civil servants were still afraid of your Taiping Secretary."

Wei Qi lowered his eyebrows and said, "Those with humble positions and adults are 'us', and those people are just 'them'."

Qian Chengyun smiled and said calmly: "If Dongchang troubles you, just give me my name."

Wei Qi was overjoyed, knowing that he had escaped this disaster.

Sometimes life and death matters can be solved with just a word from others.

Your Majesty had a big fire this morning. Who dares to get into trouble at this time? Who dares to touch the money carrier?

"Your Majesty, I will rekindle my kindness, but I am willing to die in return for my humble position!"

Qian Chengyun narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the pleasure brought by this kind of power.

It is this kind of power that makes Wei Qi, a vicious and ruthless man, behave better than a puppy in front of an old man like himself, because he can decide his life or death with one word, and he can decide the death of countless lives with one word.

This kind of power makes oneself do whatever it takes.

He retracted his thoughts, waved his hands and muttered: "Over the years, the civil servants have pushed Your Majesty hard. Things will turn to the extreme. Then the world may no longer be the cabinet's world. Whoever controls the East Factory and the Taiping Department will be the most powerful person.

The one who is a minister, do you understand?"

Wei Qi said: "In my humble position, I just have to listen to the adults."

"The post of admiral of the East Factory belongs to Wang Fang. Lu Zhengchu has the upper hand in this round. There is nothing to think about." Qian Chengyun muttered: "The most important position next is the commander of the Taiping Division. Or, at least, he has to control the North.

Zhenfu Division."

"All the ministers in the court can see this clearly. It's a pity that those people still care about their integrity and are too embarrassed to argue." Qian Chengyun said coldly: "But I am different."

Wei Qi cupped his hands and said, "Once you are given an order, no one in a humble position dares to disobey it."

Qian Chengyun said: "Your Majesty plans to use Wang Xiao's case to replace the people in the Taiping Department. The first step is to replace the envoy of Beizhen."

He sighed as he spoke, thinking that Wei Qi was just a member of a hundred households.

Wei Qi had a delicate heart and said: "My humble superior Wu Qianhu also admires you very much. If you are free in the evening, Wu Qianhu would like to invite you to Hexiang Tower to meet you."

Qian Chengyun nodded noncommittally.

He looked at the official documents on the case, thought about it and said to himself: "It's not like there is no precedent for hundreds of households to be promoted... It's just a big achievement."

He does not mean that.

Wei Qi couldn't help but frown.

----------------------------------------

Wang Xiao did not go directly to Tang Qianqian.

What if you are targeted again in broad daylight?

He went to the Xiaotan Shop on Wufeng Street to find Tang Bowang.

Tang Bowang was naturally considerate and complimentary to Wang Xiao, but he looked at Fu Qingzhu with a more appreciative look.

Fu Qingzhu, who was thirty-four years old at the time, looked a little pale, but his eyes were bright and clear, showing a keenness of seeing fire. His three long beards looked a bit bookish.

Tang Bowang knew at first glance that this was a powerful character.

The small boss found such a person to take over the land in the suburbs of Beijing. Maybe he was suspicious of people like himself?

With this thought in mind, Uncle Tang remained calm and without hesitation he asked someone to hitch a carriage and planned to take them to the outskirts of Beijing himself.

Tang Bowang took two men with him, and the six of them divided into two carriages and left the city.

Wang Xiao, Tang Bowang and Fu Qingzhu were riding in a carriage together.

Wang smiled and said: "Mr. Fu will live outside the city from now on, and he still needs to find a suitable yard."

Tang Bowang said: "There is a courtyard outside the city, not far from the capital, just beside the official road."

Wang Xiao took this moment to express his plan.

"I plan to ask Mr. Fu to divide these wastelands into several parts. One part will be used to grow high-yielding crops, another part will be used for breeding, and..."

Tang Bowang was quite shocked when he heard this.

This boss is young, but he has so many strange ideas. He just came up with one thing here, but he came up with several more ideas there.

From this point of view, he may not be suspicious of his group.

Everything is complicated, and it is impossible for a few capable people to do it.

The mountains to the west of the capital are collectively called Mentougou, but Wang Xiao was too lazy to climb that far, so he led a few people up to Miaofeng Mountain to point and chatter.

What he said was a bit confusing.

"Look, such barren hills are so wasteful if they are empty. We use them to grow corn and sweet potatoes..."

Tang Bowang and Fu Qingzhu knew more about farm work than he did, and bluntly said that the land was not fertile and it was difficult to grow crops.

"It's okay. Those crops I mentioned are easy to grow."

Tang and Fu had no choice but to write down the crop first, and then advised him that if the land could be reclaimed into fertile land, wheat should still be grown to avoid high-yielding crops from damaging the soil.

Wang Xiao said carelessly: "I only give opinions and general directions, you can just do the specifics."

Tang and Fu could only smile bitterly.

"That place can be used as a fabric factory..."

"Then the coal will be transported from there, so roads will be built..."

"The chickens I'm talking about are not just a few chickens. Do you know the chickens all over the mountains and plains? Hey, it's probably that hilltop, all surrounded..."

"Yes! Surround everyone. What we want to do is on a large scale..."

"Build a large-scale shelter there..."

"Don't you understand? What we want to do is a very large enterprise that can drive the suburban economy. No, it should be called a business..."



The sun went down little by little, and the mountain breeze gradually became cooler.

Wang Xiao's mouth went dry as he spoke, while Tang Bowang and Fu Qingzhu were dumbfounded.

The young man's words were blown away by the wind, but they still fell in the ears of Tang Bowang and Fu Qingzhu.

It's all whimsical and unconstrained. But they can only believe it.

Geng Dang was behind and basically didn't understand, but he was quite excited.

Although he couldn't see his Tieduo Village as far as the eye could see, he knew that Tietuo Mountain was also within Wang Xiao's "planning" scope, and it seemed to be an industrial area near a coal mine.

He was very excited just now when he saw Wang Xiao pointing in the direction of Tietou Mountain and drawing a circle.

But Tang Bowang gently pulled Wang Xiao's lapel and said: "My boss, I'm afraid the money on hand is not enough. We spent a lot just to buy the land. But the land you just allocated, boss, that

, there are many, many that are not ours yet..."

"That's it." Wang Xiao was stunned and sighed: "How much is the difference?"

Tang Bowang muttered: "We have to calculate the details more carefully, but I'm afraid it won't cost more than a hundred thousand taels..."

Wang smiled and said: "Let's do it step by step. How much money will we need in the initial stage?"

"The younger ones are talking about the early days."

Wang smiled and said "Oh" and said helplessly: "Those lands are all wasteland, and they are not expensive. Or we can use them first and then rent them from others when they find them."

"Well, I'm just afraid that I might get into trouble. This is the capital after all."

Wang Xiao could only say: "A hundred thousand taels, right? Then I'll find a way to do it."

Tang Bowang and Fu Qingzhu looked at each other, both speechless.

Geng Dang scratched his head and felt a little admiration - he couldn't get more than a dozen taels, but he wanted to get more than a hundred thousand taels.

Wang Xiao laughed and said: "Then Mr. Fu, please take action first and find some people to make plans, haha. I will send you money later, haha."
