After the Qin Dynasty unified Lingnan, Nanhai County was established on the side of the Pearl River and the "Renhuan City" was built, which was the beginning of the construction of Guangzhou. In the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the middle city, the east city and the west city were combined into one, and crossed to the north to Yuexiu Mountain, and also expanded to the east, and became the first city in Lingnan seen today.

In February, the city of Guangzhou is still cold, especially at night, people will be shivering.

It's just that when night comes, it's still a place of singing and dancing. The green buildings in Guangzhou City are still full of flowers, and scholars, merchants and gentry squander gold and silver, enjoying the great peace of this prosperous era.

In one of the studies, the lights were on, but suddenly there was a loud bang on the table, and the flames shook, causing the shadows on the ground to shake as if in the waves.

"What does he want to do?"

Wang Bai's hand was on the table, but his face was iron-blue, and his eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames.

For Lin Wenkui, who suddenly made a high-profile appearance in Guangzhou City, he had the right to think that this kid had poor results in Leizhou Mansion, so he whimsically ran over to "fight the autumn wind".

It's just that no matter how powerful this kid is, but in this Guangzhou City, where the streets of the third and fourth grades are full of officials, he wants to "fight the autumn wind" with a small five-grade Guangdong City Bo Si Lift, which is definitely a humiliating move for himself.

I was about to watch him hit his nose and swollen eyes, and then run back to Leizhou Mansion in a gloomy manner, but he never imagined that this kid would come directly to a big trick.

At the checkpoint where the lotus stem is located, the trade line to Haojing is cut off at once, which is simply bold.

The reason why Wang Bai was so angry was not because Wang Wenhui's batch of porcelain could not be transported to Haojing on time, but because he was worried that Lin Haoran's move would anger those Francos and offend that Mr. Galoreot.

Once a military conflict arises between the two sides, it will inevitably lead to a rigid relationship and even a direct confrontation. If it was then, how could the Francophile obediently help him get ambergris, and what else could he use to please the saints?

As soon as he thought of this, he really wanted to swallow this Lin Wenkui alive, which not only cut off his financial route, but also cut off his path to promotion.

"Dong Weng, I don't think there will be a situation where the two sides are fighting, I'm afraid you're too worried this time!" After listening to Wang Bai's worries, the staff shook their heads with certainty.

"Why?" Wang Bai attached great importance to his staff, and asked with a frown.

"Dong Weng, do you think Xiangshan Qianhu dares to do anything to the Francophone people?" The staff picked up the teacup and asked smugly.

"As for the virtue of those soldiers, if you lend them a hundred guts, you don't dare to do such a thing, and you don't have the ability to do such a thing!" Wang Bai laughed at first, but changed the conversation and said: "I'm not worried about this, I'm worried that the Franc Machine Man will cripple all the people of Xiangshan Qianhuwei, and someone will stab the Franc Robot Man stationed in Haojing to the imperial court, and then the court will issue an expulsion order to the Franc Robot!" ”

Although allowing the Franc machine to be stationed in Haojing is also a tacit agreement to trade with the Franc man, but this matter has not been reported to the imperial court, which is undoubtedly a small hidden danger.

And in the event of a strong military conflict, things will inevitably be shaken out. At that time, if the court becomes hostile to the Franco, then his friendship with Galeot will inevitably collapse.

"Dong Weng, don't worry about this!" The staff made a guarantee and said confidently: "Galeot is a smart person, he finally settled in Haojing, and he put so much energy into Haojing, will he give up easily?" ”

"You're right!" Wang Bai also gradually calmed down, and found that he thought about the situation seriously, but he still avoided a long night and a long dream: But I have to order it to go down immediately, and immediately remove the lotus stem! ”

"Dong Weng, don't worry about this!" The staff member took the tea lid and flicked the tea, shook his head incomprehensibly.

"Why?" Wang Bai sat on the chair with a big belly, looking at him by the light and said suspiciously.

"Think about it, who is in a hurry now?" The staff took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.

"Galeot?" Wang Bai can get through at one point.

"As far as I know, the number of transport ships on the Pearl River has suddenly decreased, many ships have stopped working, and the transportation line from Guangzhou to Haojing has actually been cut off! And the large batch of porcelain that Mr. Galeo asked for is still in Guangzhou City, and he must be in a hurry at this time! The staff proudly plucked the tea, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

"Oh?" Wang Bai's eyes lit up slightly, and he found that things were not bad.

"Actually, Dong Weng has to thank Lin Wenkui this time, if he gives you a sword!" The staff raised his eyelids and explained carefully: "I believe that after this time, Mr. Galeot will definitely know the importance of the lotus stem, and whether this lotus stem is set up or not is a matter of Dong Weng's words, I believe he will be more attentive in the future!" ”

"Well, that's for sure!" Wang Bai smiled and nodded, and asked again: "Then according to Mr. Wang, what should I do?" ”

The staff took a sip of tea, and then said lightly: "Your Excellency doesn't do anything!" Wait until Galeot comes to the door, you will sell him a favor, and then call Lin Wenkui over to give him a lecture, and then give an order to remove the lotus stem! ”

"Haha...... Yes, that's it! Wang Bai smiled proudly, feeling that everything was under control.

Originally, he was angry at Lin Haoran's reckless behavior, but suddenly found that this kid was not blocking him, but helping him, so that he could restrain the Francophile even more.

This is indeed the case, after the cut off land and water transportation, it has had a great impact on Ho Jing.

Not only have many Western-style houses been built here, but also monks led by Gaspar D.A. Cruz have built churches here.

"Let's deal with them!"

After learning that the people of the Xiangshan Thousand Households had set up a gate on the lotus stem, many militants immediately took the initiative to ask for help.

Galeot is a sane man, but also a profit-seeking businessman. Although he despises this corrupt country, he knows that this country is powerful, but he is not willing to choose war easily.

Especially in Haojing, which has been operating for several years, it is not only a window to connect with the Ming Dynasty, but also a supply depot to Japan. It would be unwise to go to war now.

After learning that this was the arbitrary initiative of a petty official, he immediately took a gift to the city of Canton, intending to visit his old friend who was both lovely and greedy.

Not long after Galeot found Wang Bai, Lin Haoran was also called by Wang Bai.

Whether it is the Guangdong City Department or the Leizhou Mansion Yamen, the two yamen are all subordinate to the Guangdong Buzheng Department in terms of fame. Now, Wang Bai can be said to be Lin Haoran's top boss.

Of course, Daming does not have a strong affiliation, as long as you are strong enough, you can learn to "sea pen holder" without giving face to Shangguan.

When Wang Bai was serving as the deputy envoy of the inspection and the deputy envoy of the patrol channel, he ignored the opposition of Ding Yizhong, the envoy of the commission, and openly agreed on behalf of the official that the Francophone was stationed in the mirror.

Then, relying on the "ambergris" obtained from the Francophone man, he was directly promoted to the second-rank Guangdong political envoy and deputy envoy of the sea patrol, and was higher than the original boss Ding Yizhong in terms of rank.

Wang Bai met with Lin Haoran in the living room, and he had no ill will towards Lin Haoran, but he didn't have a good impression of it, after all, this person didn't ask him for advice when he set up a gate on the lotus stem.

He has always taken his authority very seriously. If everyone ignores him as a political envoy, then how can he save face? How else to lead this large group of Guangdong officials?

"I remember that the imperial court sent you back to specify that you want you to open the sea in Leizhou Mansion, right?" After Wang Bai drank tea, he went straight to the point, clearly wanting to question Lin Haoran.

This is indeed the case, the imperial court was originally to avoid risks, and Lin Haoran also relied on this low-risk plan to open the sea to get the champion and obtain the position of Wenkui.

If he wants to return to Guangzhou City to open the sea now, it will change the original intention of the imperial court, and it is also a kind of transgression.

Lin Haoran nodded lightly and calmly responded: "Not bad! It's just that the commerce of Leizhou Mansion is not prosperous, and many goods still have to rely on Guangzhou Prefecture, so I have asked the imperial court to allow the opening of the route from Haojing to Leizhou. ”

Wang Bai's fist undoubtedly hit the cotton, but he was not overly disappointed, and asked again: "It's no problem for you to apply to the imperial court to open this route, but there is no need to set up a gate on the lotus stem, right?" ”

Lin Haoran was immediately stunned, and said in confusion: "After I arrived in Guangzhou City, I sent people to investigate, but I found that many illegal businessmen actually went to sea through Haojing Wharf, so naturally I want to stop this kind of illegal going to sea!" ”

"You are not setting up customs at the Lotus Stem to impose customs duties, but to stop merchants from sending goods to Haojing?" Wang Bai was also stunned, and asked in surprise.

"That's right! This kind of illegal behavior should be stopped! If everyone can go to the sea at will, then what is the point of me opening the sea in Leizhou Mansion? Lin Haoran said righteously.

Wang Bai seems to be looking at a dead man, this kid is simply a big idiot.

If some tolls are imposed, it's not a problem. However, if trade is directly stopped from going to Haojing, it will be directly against the entire Cantonese business community and the entire Guangdong officials.

I thought how great Lin Wenkui was this Lian Zhongzhong six yuan, and how smart Lin Leigong was who even solved the unjust case, but it turned out to be a big idiot, I am afraid that he will be on the street tomorrow.

But at this time, someone walked in and reported in his ear, and Wang Bai's eyes lit up. He first glanced at Lin Haoran, and then happily ordered, "Bring him in directly!" ”

Lin Haoran was also puzzled, always feeling that this person had something to do with him, but looking at the middle-aged man who walked in, he had never met him.

"I won't be joining the domain-sama!" The general who came in saluted Wang Bai respectfully.

"General Chen, do you know what I am looking for you?" Wang Bai glanced at Lin Haoran again, and then asked with a smile.

"I don't know!" Chen Minghui said honestly.

"All the thousands of households under the command of Guanghaiwei violated the military order and set up a gate on the lotus stem without authorization! You go to Xiangshan now to help me deal with it, and let the people of Xiangshan Qianhu take down the lotus stem, and no one is allowed to appear there again, do you understand! Wang Bai commanded this General Chen solemnly, and he simply treated Lin Haoran as if he were air.

Lin Haoran was naturally angry in his heart, knowing that he had asked Xiangshan Qianhuwei to set up a gate on the lotus stem, but Wang Bai gave this order in front of him, which was simply a slap in the face of him.

"Ben will obey!" Chen Minghui also seemed to know the reason, and glanced at Lin Haoran before receiving the order.

Wang Bai looked at Lin Haoran proudly, and when he saw Lin Haoran's angry expression, his heart was extremely happy.

What about the unprecedented Lianzhong Six Yuan? What about the background of the Hallym Academy? What about the youngest five-grade official in the Ming Dynasty? What about the future son-in-law of Wu Shan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites?

Here in Guangdong, he is not only a political envoy, but also a patrol of the seaway, with the right to govern and military power, he is the sky! As for the little Lotus Stem level, as long as he said a word, he could remove that level.

"If Lord Fantai has nothing else to do, then the lower official will leave first!" Lin Haoran pulled his handsome face, arched his hand perfunctorily towards Wang Bai, and without waiting for him to agree, he turned around and strode away.

Wang Bai didn't blame Lin Haoran for his faux pas, watching him leave in a hurry in anger, but he was very happy in his heart. Let this young man who is the most popular in the whole Ming Dynasty get tired of it, and his heart is extraordinarily happy.

A person who came out from behind the screen clapped his hands and said, "Lord Wang, you really cover the sky with one hand!" ”

"Mr. Galoreot, you've won the prize!" Although the words of this Francophile were not very appropriate, Wang Bai did not break it, but accepted the praise with a smile.

In fact, here in Guangdong, he can indeed cover the sky with one hand, and no one dares to follow him.

"My friend, you have done me a great favor again, I will keep it in my heart, this is my little respect!" As he spoke, Galeot gave him the gift he had already prepared.

It's just that he feels that this gift is wronged, and this official who is good at asserting is a fool, even if he doesn't come to Wang Bai for help, that little official will inevitably be eliminated.

The trade route from Guangzhou to Haojing, some people are involved, and this Wang Bai is also one of them. If these trade routes were cut off, it would not only be him who would be proud, but would also be hated by many beneficiaries.

For this prefect, his friend Simon is very respectful, and thinks that he is the smartest person in the entire Ming Dynasty.

It's just that it seems to him that Mr. Simon has been joking with him all along, perhaps being deceived. This is just a land of dehumans, and this young man is only eighteen years old, but a smarter young man.

In fact, just as he judged, this man actually wanted to set up a gate to intercept the merchants who delivered goods to them, which was simply cutting off people's money. Even if it's him, he knows: cutting off people's wealth is like killing his parents, but this kid doesn't understand.

The next time he saw Mr. Simon, he had to be sarcastic, in the words of the Ming people: there are eyes but no beads.
