Before Li Shimin left, he gave Li Mu an imperial edict, granting him the position of governor of Jiangnan and general manager of waterways, allowing him to take action first and report to the fourth rank and then apply, and appoint officials of the sixth rank and below. Such authority has never been seen in this dynasty.

Li Mu originally wanted to refuse, but Li Shimin's attitude was firm. With the long road in Yangzhou and it took too much effort to ask for instructions when encountering problems, most people in the court did not understand what Li Mu was dealing with now, and they could not discuss anything. Giving him authority was also a matter of cheapness.

Li Mu had no choice but to accept it.

An interesting thing is that, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Li Shimin did not mention the army brought by Hou Junji, nor did Li Mu not mention it, and both the king and the minister seemed to have forgotten it.

...

Hou Junji's army was stationed ten miles away from Mingzhou Port. This place is still deserted, but in the future, it is planned to establish a military camp. However, the engineering team is still unable to take action, and the project here has not started yet. Twenty thousand people are living in tents. Although it is a habit to have a hardship in the military camp, if the conditions are better, who would not want to live better?

After saying goodbye to Li Shimin, Hou Junji followed Li Mu back to Guyuan, sat down and looked at the tea. Li Mu looked at Hou Junji who was a little embarrassed and smiled and said, "The general said it directly, why bother? It's not like the general's personality!"

"Oh, I really can't open my mouth." Hou Junji was not a lie. He has been troubled by Li Mu a lot. Last year's budget, the part of the Ministry of War was the smallest part of Li Mu, who found a way to make up for the deficit. Every time he spoke, Li Mu never let him keep his mouth shut. This time he was troubled, and he was indeed a little thin-skinned.

But if he didn't want to say it, he wouldn't come. After a while, he said, "The 20,000 garrison troops are still living in tents. It's not that they can't live, but the tent is next to the tent. It's a little rainy and the moisture is very strong. Sometimes it can't be taken care of, and sometimes it can't be taken care of. "Hou Junji sighed and said, "I wonder if I can distribute a group of craftsmen to drive the barracks first. I know that the construction in the port is tight now. Do you think this is OK? I'll distribute you 3,000 soldiers to act as laborers. This will not delay the progress. Think of a solution in the barracks?"

"This is easy," Li Mu smiled. "In fact, bricklayers and carpenters are not very difficult to learn. The general went back to select some clever and smart sergeants and let them learn for a few days. They can basically get started. After all, they are barracks, not carved beams and painted buildings." After pausing, Li Mu said again: "It would be better to simply set up a battalion dedicated to infrastructure and promote Zhechong Mansion across the country. It is also a great benefit. When the army can save a lot of money, when these sergeants return, they also have a skill to take care of themselves. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Hou Junji clapped his hands and said, "It's good, I'll go back and arrange it now."

Li Mu sent Hou Junji to the door, watched him walk away, and said to Dugu Jiu beside him: "Go and notify the heads of the 12 families in Jiangnan and ask them to come over tonight. I have something to explain to them."

Dugu Jiu said: "Gu Sizhi is sick in bed, so he may not be able to come. His two sons cannot make decisions."

"Haha," Li Mu laughed and said, "I can't come, so don't come in the future. Tell them that the matters discussed today will determine their future destiny. Whoever dares not come will bear the consequences."

Dugu Jiu nodded and conveyed it. Li Mu looked at the clouds in the distance and turned into his studio. He just came out in the evening. There was already a yellow tip in his hand, which contained something that was bulging.

...

All the heads of the twelve families were absent. Gu Sizhi also came, and he was carried. In fact, although he was sick, he was just a heart disease and would not be carried over. However, he pretended to be too devoted before and claimed that the disease was serious. It suddenly got cured, which was a bit too fake, so he carried over.

There is no banquet, only tea.

Li Mu asked the servants to put a pot of tea in front of everyone. With the tea swelling, he observed everyone's expressions. Except for a few who dared to face him calmly, most of the others, including Gu Sizhi, were dodging his gaze.

Li Mu raised a smile on his lips, took a sip of tea, and said, "I was surprised and disappointed by some of you."

As soon as he said this, someone immediately choked on the tea. Everyone looked at it and it was Gu Sizhi who was "stricken in illness".

"But there are some people, which satisfy me." Li Mu looked at Wang Rui, and Wang Rui immediately raised his chest.

"Mr. Marquis—" Gu Sizhi wanted to speak, but was blocked by Li Mu for a moment. He continued, "There is no need to say anything else. This Marquis didn't want to pursue you either," he snorted and said, "After all, the trouble you can cause to this Marquis is limited. If I can affect you, it's better not to do this."

The tone was full of disdain and domineeringness.

Li Mu took out the tips and poured out the things inside.

"There are twelve colorful glass seals here." Everyone looked at them and it was indeed colorful glass, which was dazzling against the backdrop of the moonlight. There were not many glasses in the world, and their value was positioned as "color". The more colors, the more beautiful they were, and the higher the value. Colorful glass has always been a legendary thing, and there is no place to buy them if you want to buy them.

Such neat colorful glass does not exist at all. Li Mu was able to take out twelve pieces at once, which invisibly confirmed the rumor that Li Mu would create glass.

Before Li Shimin left, he gave Li Mu an imperial edict, granting him the position of governor of Jiangnan and general manager of waterways, allowing him to take action first and report to the fourth rank and then apply, and appoint officials of the sixth rank and below. Such authority has never been seen in this dynasty.
