Zhang Yian stood up and filled the teacup in front of Gu Shun, "How do you think of what Brother Gu said about the old lady Qu?"

"I also think the Demon Cult is purely nonsense, but I am very interested in the great Han arsenal left by the previous dynasty."

"I'm not afraid of Brother Gu's joke. When I was young, I dreamed that I got the treasure map of the Han Wuku and found the treasure of the previous dynasty. Unfortunately, I woke up when I was counting the treasures.

This arsenal has disappeared for decades, and countless treasure hunters are crossing mountains and ridges every year. However, there is no whereabouts of any arsenal to date."

"Well, when I walk around the world in the future, I will also look for the hiding place of this arsenal. Maybe I will find it." Gu Shun said with great ambitions.

"Then I wish Brother Gu to find the Han Wuku as soon as possible. By the way, Brother Gu has something to do with me today, so I can always say it now." Zhang Yian couldn't wait to say.

Gu Shun said, "Brother Yi'an, I want to ask you something."

"I'll say anything, as long as it's Brother Gu's instructions, I will definitely do it."

"I remember Brother Yi'an said before, "I am weak and cannot practice martial arts. With Brother Yi'an's talent, doing business is too insignificant. So I hope Brother Yi'an can study, get a fame, and be able to come back to become the prefect of Jiangnan City in the future."

"What? Be the prefect!" Zhang Yian was stunned, suspected that he had heard it wrong, "How is this possible? The Great Qi court did not allow the Han people to take charge of local power. How could a Han person become an official in a place like Jiangnan where fish and rice are rich?

Besides, Brother Gu should do the important task of being a prefect, because Yi An is a humble family and dare not interfere with the affairs. Brother Gu is really a tragic loss of me.”

Gu Shun explained as expected: "Brother Yi'an didn't know that the Hu court implemented a hereditary system of official positions. After his father passed away, his son inherited his father's official position. His father died and his son succeeded him. He was a minister of all generations.

But my godfather, as the prefect of Jiangnan City, had no children, so he wanted me to be this prefect.

When the prefect of Jiangnan is a magistrate, everything is complicated and complicated. You know, I am the most afraid of trouble. But my godfather is determined to let me be the prefect, but he put all his hopes on me. I can't refuse, so I want to hand over this errand to you Brother Yi An.

In order to avoid making others quarrel, you always have to go and get a Jinshi exam. In this way, you can openly take the position of prefect of Jiangnan City."

Zhang Yian was stunned when he heard the whole story. He didn't believe that such a huge pie was just hitting his head.

"Brother Gu, Yi An must not want this position as a prefect. It is enough to let me stay by my side to assist Brother Gu. If Brother Gu respects me so much, Yi An is ashamed of being aware of it. He will definitely live up to his high expectations and do his best to get a fame and honor."

Gu Shun was secretly happy in his heart, "What you want is your words."

Gu Shun now urgently needs to cultivate his own power and his confidants. It is said that two fists cannot beat four hands. If he wants to play a lie flat, he must always have the capital to lie flat.

Whether it is the leader of the Demon Sect, the leader of the martial arts world, or the prefect of Jiangnan City, any of them are hot potatoes, not to mention that Gu Shun gathered three of them at once, I don’t know whether this luck is too good or too bad.

The Demon Sect is about to return to the Central Plains, and it will take long for my father to start a war against Da Qi.

The Hu people's big ass had just been warmed up, so naturally they would not let themselves be overthrown. They would definitely do their best to deal with the Demon Cult and the forces that resisted themselves. The three-party melee may be staged in the Central Plains.

Gu Shunke didn't want to get involved in this melee at all.

Creating a force that can be driven by oneself can not only provide a buffering support, but also make him more at ease in the chaos in the world.

This plan has been brewing for a long time, but because he was too young, there were no people around him.

Although there are many people around Gu Shun, both the escort agency and the Demon Cult are all powers of their parents.

Although they can be obedient to them, they are not the ones he has cultivated and promoted them by himself. They will have many concerns when using them. The most important thing is that they lack absolute loyalty to him.

Seeing that the Demon Cult is about to take action in Jingzhou, the world is about to be in chaos, Gu Shun can no longer delay and must act immediately.

Taking Zhang Yian into his own hands is a good choice now.

So from Gu Shun personally going to Zhang's house to pick him up, he also asked about his well-being along the way, treating him with courtesy, and then just promised him with a generous salary, making him the gimmick of being the prefect of Jiangnan City.

These are the means used by Gu Shun to make Zhang Yian completely surrender to him.

Since Zhang Peien, the Zhang family advocated him and asked Zhang Yian to deliberately make friends with him, all this has begun to proceed in an orderly manner.

The reason why Gu Shun chose Zhang Yian as his first subordinate was that Zhang Yian was very capable and at a young age, his mind and strategy were far beyond his peers.

Such a personality and ability, coupled with a little ambition, will definitely become a subordinate with endless potential.

He is a concubine's son in the Zhang family, and his identity and background determine that he is his best and only choice at the moment.

Gu Shun has the ability to read the mind, but is not worried that his subordinates have ambitions and scheming. As long as he can use it for his own purposes, Gu Shun can take him under his command and entrust him to appoint him.

For Zhang Peien, Zhang Yian was originally a tool. After Gu Shun married Zhang Guiqi, Zhang Yian naturally lost his power. At that time, he would send him to guard the Zhang family's family business and ancestral property, and this would be the case in his life.

By listening to Zhang Yian's heart, Gu Shun had long read that he was not popular in the Zhang family, and even he and his mother were often excluded, which was equivalent to pushing Zhang Yian toward him.

Gu Shun doesn't have to worry, he will betray himself for the so-called family interests.

Compared with the benefits that can be obtained by working for the excluded family, the one who can rely on Gu Shun is like in the sky and under the earth. As a smart person, Zhang Yian can naturally consider clearly what is more important and where his future will go.

It can be said that for Gu Shun and Zhang Yian, this is a win-win choice.

Seeing that the wood was already in its boat, Gu Shun said, "Brother Yi'an's words just now are sincere. If I give you a chance to follow me, become my subordinate, or even leave the family, how should you choose."

Zhang Yian put on a mature expression that was obviously inconsistent with his age and said, "Yian just said that as long as it is Brother Gu's arrangement, I will definitely do it."

Thank you Brother Gu for your respect and trust in me so much. Brother Gu must have known for a long time that everything was arranged by my father. Including making friends with you, Brother Gu, it is just a task given to me by my father.

But I didn't expect Brother Gu to treat me sincerely and give me such a valuable position.

Yi An is just a concubine of the Zhang family. She is humble and humble. She can be so valued and appreciated by Brother Gu. I cannot repay the kindness of my understanding. I am willing to do my best to assist Brother Gu. If you don’t seek to be successful, as long as you live better than in the Zhang family, it will be enough."

Gu Shun listened to these heartfelt words and knew that Zhang Yian was not saying politely, "It would be enough for Brother Yian to have such a heart. When my godfather passed on the prefect of Jiangnan City to me in the future, I will hand it over to Brother Yian."

When Zhang Yian heard this, he didn't know what to say, so he could only choke speechlessly, his eyes were red, and he was deeply touched. He refused after a long time, but he refused to accept it.

"Don't rush to refuse first. I did this not only for you and me, but also for the people of Jiangnan City.

I am a man who is born not an official, and I am also a martial arts student, escort agencies and business banks. I am far from being able to deal with people's livelihood and suffering, you are not as good as Brother Yi'an.

So you still want to be the prefect, just to treat it as the people of Jiangnan City, for your biological mother, and to help me share the pressure."

These words made Zhang Yian very helpful. He immediately knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Yian understands that I will study history books and scriptures in the future, strive to get fame and fortune, strive to become Brother Gu's right-hand man, and assist Brother Gu with all my strength."

Gu Shun finally breathed a sigh of relief. The hot potato of Jiangnan City Prefect was finally given away. He even helped him get a famous man back. This deal can be said to be quite cost-effective.

For him, the prefect of Jiangnan City was not even a useless person. His most important goal at the moment was to practice and break through the fifth part of the Ancient Gods's True Sutra, and at the same time collect as many martial arts as possible in this world to create his own martial arts.

If you can bring the exercises back to the main world, it will be worthwhile.

He didn't have time to spend on being a prefect.

After all, the prefect is an important local position and is very close to the Hu court of Daqi. His father ran around to overthrow the rule of the Hu people of Daqi all day long. He didn't want to get too involved with the Hu people other than his godfather.

As a Han Chinese, he was influenced by his own eyes and always had a kind of resistance to the Hu people.

It just so happened that Zhang Yian was the prefect who won the hearts of the people, and he could also firmly grasp Jiangnan City in his own hands, and win multiple goals in one fell swoop.
