"I just don't know if Ling Zun wants to kill me or you after listening to it."

As soon as Gao Shishi's words came out, Liu Xin was stunned at first, and then immediately said with a suspicious face: "Do you want to tell my father that we have ...... Already that...... Right? ”

Gao pragmatic smiled dryly: "What do you think of this idea? ”

Liu Xin glared at him and said, "This is your Gao Longwen's clever plan?" Dog days are not spoiled for overnight meals. ”

"Really? I think it's a very common idea, and although 'common' usually means not a fanciful idea, it must mean that it has a wide range of applicability, doesn't it? ”

"Where is it common?" Liu Xin said unhappily: "Have you seen it?" ”

"Don't you girls often have this type of plot in the TV series they love to watch? The raw rice is cooked and cooked, and then my father and mother have to push the boat down the river......" Gao pragmatic said while gesturing.

Liu Xin rolled her eyes: "Why do you think anyone can use this routine?" What is your identity, what is my identity, making such a fuss, are we planning to go to the river together? ”

Gao Shishi first laughed, and then shook his head and said: "No, no, at least I can't die because of this." ”

"You won't die, it doesn't matter if someone else dies, right?" Liu Xin glared and said, "My father is such a competitive person, but my daughter told her that she was pregnant before marriage?" I think he's going to have to die of anger before I throw myself into the river. ”

Then he sighed: "Okay, okay, don't joke, can you give some constructive advice?" ”

"Yes." Gao pragmatic smiled: "The idea just now, as long as it changes slightly, can really be considered." ”

"Huh?" Liu Xin saw that Gao Shishi's expression this time was not like a joke, and asked suspiciously: "What changes are there, let's talk about it first." ”

"You see, although the method just mentioned is not feasible to be applied directly, it is mainly because the side effects are too great, in fact, the essence of this method is still right." Gao pragmatic said: "What is the essence of this? It is to make Ling Zun misjudge our relationship, and make him mistakenly think that the intimacy between us is already very high, and it is impossible to break up. ”

Liu Xin hesitated for a moment, frowned, and said, "Then how can we let him have this misunderstanding without making him too angry?" ”

"If you agree that this approach is intrinsically feasible, then we just need to think about the heat." Gao Shishi paused, pursed his lips, and said, "But before I can do so, I must first explain that no matter how you master this heat, it will definitely have an impact on your reputation, in other words...... After doing this, it will be more difficult for you to get married. ”

Liu Xin hesitated slightly, and quickly waved her hand: "If it just affects me to get married, then it's okay, I'm just worried about whether it will affect the reputation of the Liu family too much." ”

Gao pragmatically said: "There will always be a little bit, but it shouldn't be a big problem." ”

Liu Xin thought for a while and said, "Then you can say it." ”

Gao pragmatically said: "The solution is that I will hire you as my personal staff, and you will stay in my house for food and accommodation in the future." Every day I go back to Zhaohui Jinggongfang, you stay in Zhaohui Jinggongfang; I will go back to Baiyulou, and you will stay in Baiyulou. ”

"Staff?" Liu Xin thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "This is equivalent to a secretary?" ”

Gao pragmatically nodded and said: "For all officials above my level, it can almost be said that nine out of ten people have staff in the house. I have the impression that the high-ranking officials who do not support their staff are generally those who are known for their poverty and honesty, such as Hai Rui, my third uncle, my teacher, and others.

I haven't recruited staff so far, but it's actually because I have something on my mind, and I'm always worried about when I will leak my mouth, whether it's drunk talk or dream talk, it's more or less a hidden danger. But if it is, it doesn't matter. ”

"You're worried about that?" Liu Xin said with some surprise: "Then there are so many maids by your side......"

Gao pragmatic spread his hands: "You don't really think that if I am from modern society, I will definitely not 'kill innocents' in this society, right?" My maids, including the maids left behind by Zhiting, are all under my control of their own life and death or that of their families, and even if I say something wrong, they will definitely not hear." In addition, Gao Mo is left, but Gao Mo's only son is also in Jinghua, and then again, I really can't think of anyone who can buy Gao Mo. ”

Liu Xin thought about it, even the emperor couldn't come up with a better treatment than Gao Pragmatic to buy Gao Mo, Gao Mo was just a loyal servant after all, could the emperor still give him a big official in the empty words? Do you really think that when civil politics is prevalent, an emperor like Zhu Yijun who still talks about face can do whatever he wants?

Even the most capable of "Hu Lai", the Zhengde Tianzi, did not see him Hu Lai for civil and political affairs, he just came Hu Lai himself, or at most indulged the eunuchs and close military ministers around him. Zhu Yijun wants to buy Gao Mo, unless he lets Gao Mo be the master of ceremonies, this is too outrageous, with Gao Mo's current status in Jinghua, he will definitely not be happy.

Liu Xin nodded and no longer mentioned this stubble, but thought about it before hesitating: "If you do this, I'm not afraid of that bit of gossip, but in this way, will it also have an impact on your reputation?" ”

Gao Pragmatic smiled indifferently and said, "There will definitely be a little bit, but the problem is not big, and it is controllable." ”

"Can this kind of thing be 'managed'? How to control it? Liu Xin was surprised.

Gao pragmatically said: "Please cooperate with Zhiting, this matter will be 'controllable'." ”

"Huang Dutong?" Liu Xin was even more surprised: "How do you want her to cooperate?" ”

Gao pragmatic said: "This matter should be like this in the end: you are first of all a guest general hired by her, and you have gained her trust in a series of wars in southern Xinjiang. So, she recommended you to me to act as both my military staff and my 'confidential secretary' between me and her. ”

Liu Xin knew the meaning of the song when she heard it, and immediately said: "Do you want to use the name of Mrs. Zun to suppress gossip?" ”

Gao pragmatic nodded slightly.

Liu Xin thought about it and said: "It's feasible, it's feasible, after all, Huang Dutong is a woman, and it's more appropriate for her to recommend another woman than to recommend a man." Wouldn't you upset her by doing so, though? ”

Gao pragmatic hesitated slightly, shook his head and said, "I'm not sure." Judging by her consistent behavior, no matter what capacity you are doing to stay with me, she doesn't seem to be upset about it, in fact...... As I said earlier, she even kept persuading me to take a concubine.

As for why I still say I'm not sure, it's because I always feel that her behavior may not be out of her own heart, or maybe it is the invisible social pressure that makes her have to make this kind of 'never jealous' performance.

Of course, it may also be as you said, the women of this era themselves have been 'poisoned', and they may think in their hearts that this is the right thing to do, a great good, a virtue, and they are very willing to do so. I don't have a lot of research on this issue, maybe you can refer to it in the future when you have nothing to do. ”

Liu Xin listened very seriously at first, but when she heard the last sentence, she couldn't help but roll her eyes: "I don't have such idle time." ”

Then he paused and asked, "Can I make my father not urge me to marry?" ”

Gao pragmatically said: "Just imagine, what will Ling Zun think of this matter when he gets the news that you will stay with me as a personal staff?" I mean, would he really think you're just staying with me and giving advice or something? ”

Liu Xin shook her head and said: "That's definitely not going to happen, how can there be a daughter's family who goes outside to do something for people, I just stayed in my eldest brother's army at the beginning, and I did it by all means." You don't know, in order not to stay at home and 'get married', I was really coquettish and cute at that time. As she spoke, she couldn't help but sneer.

Gao Pragmatic smiled, then thought about it again, and said: "This is better, Ling Zun will definitely understand that you are unwilling to marry when he sees you doing this." Secondly, I think it seems to him that it would be better for you to stay with me than to come up with some other bad idea. ”

Liu Xin knows the meaning of Gao Pragmatic's words, which roughly means that Liu Xianhui will "choose the lesser of two evils", Gao Pragmatic is a "rich and handsome", no matter how you look at the future, it will be a proper future for the old cabinet, and it is better to be with him than with others.

In fact, Liu Xin's understanding is not comprehensive, but it doesn't matter at this moment, all in all, it is all to block Liu Xian's mouth, as for what Liu Xian thinks, Gao Pragmatic is not particularly concerned in nature.

However, Liu Xin soon had another doubt, looked at Gao pragmatic suspiciously, and said, "You help me like this......"

"Are you afraid that I have ulterior motives, or are you afraid that I will ask for something in return?" Gao pragmatic laughed: "I help you because I can only feel it when I talk to you...... Well, a kind of relaxation, I'm sure you can understand. ”

Liu Xin really smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, so am I." ”

Then she sighed again: "Speaking of which, it still makes sense for you to return to the Ming Dynasty, but I'm different, I really don't know what the use of me coming here is." ”

Gao pragmatically said: "You can think about it, and maybe you can find some implementation...... Something that crosses the value to do. ”

"Crossing value? Ha, you're pretty good at making words. Liu Xin shook her head with a wry smile and said, "I thought about it when I was a child, but it almost didn't mean much. Actually, do you know, I even thought about doing business earlier, just like you got this Jinghua. It's a pity that I'm different from you, although I'm favored at home, I don't have independent economic rights, just like other girls in this era, I can at most have a little money, enough to buy some rouge gouache and other things. ”

Gao pragmatic asked, "Then have you ever told your father or your eldest brother about this kind of ...... Well, ideal? ”

"I mentioned it, but they didn't agree with it at all." Liu Xin shook her head and said: "They actually have a lot of gray income, but this money is basically used to smash into the family, and there is rarely extra money left." This situation has only improved slightly after you distribute that Yunnan Baiyao-this thing--this thing--part of the dividends to the Liu family. ”

"Oh?" Gao Shishi didn't know the situation behind this, and asked, "What did you do with this money?" ”

"Pharmacy." Liu Xin said: "My father and my eldest brother bought some shops in Sichuan, Yunnan and other places to run a medicinal herb business, because of their relationship with you, they later cooperated with Jinghua Trading Company after Jinghua entered the southwest, and also participated in the transportation of some medicinal materials. Maybe it was because my words back then had a bit of an effect, or maybe they themselves didn't like these complicated chores, and I was mainly in charge of these transactions later. ”

Gao Pragmatic said suddenly: "No wonder you dared to recruit thousands of surrendered troops last time, I was quite curious when I saw the report at the time, thinking about how your family suddenly became rich, and it was able to expand so much at once." To tell you the truth, I thought it was Liu Wei who scraped the ground too badly in Yunnan, and even sent someone to learn about the local people, so as not to cause him an accident and no one to clean up the aftermath for him. ”

Liu Xinwan smiled: "Thank you very much." Then he paused, and then said, "But you know, after I did all these things, I realized that I didn't have much talent for business. The reason why the pharmacy business can run smoothly is actually only because there are people behind it.

Behind me is my father and my eldest brother, they still have some roots in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces, and behind them is you, which makes no one dare to move, you may not know how useful your name is in the local area. ”

Gao was surprised: "Really? Sichuan and Yunnan are not the provinces where our school of practice is strong, so my name is very useful? ”

"Of course it works." Liu Xin said: "The local eunuch in Sichuan is Huang Mengyu's godson, and the eunuch in Yunnan is Chen Ju's godson.

And as soon as the two of them heard that my brother and sister have a friendship with you for more than ten years, and I even lived directly in your Baiyulou courtyard when I came to Beijing occasionally, the attitude of the two of them was really ...... Tsk, I can't wait to call my eldest brother my uncle and my aunt, do you say your name works? ”

Gao Shishi smiled bitterly: "It seems that I really have the meaning of a big minister now, and a group of eunuchs are obedient to me." ”

Liu Xin shook his head and said: "It's not just eunuchs, there are actually quite a few Jinshi from the Beibang who went to Sichuan and Yunnan provinces to be officials, and recently, I mean that since Liu Shizeng fell to you, the two provinces of Sichuan and Yunnan now have a better attitude towards our Liu family." ”

Gao pragmatic suddenly realized. Liu Shizeng was the governor of Yunnan, and he also made great contributions to the previous peace, and Liu Shizeng himself was a member of Chen Yu's family, and Chen Yu's majesty, as the son of Chen Yiqin, obviously had a good influence in his hometown of Sichuan, which is similar to the Gao family in Henan.

The two were added together, and the face of the real school in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces suddenly swelled a lot, and even Liu Ling, who was a descendant of the real school, was wiped out, and as for the Liu family's pharmacy, it was even more incidental.

However, when it came to the southwest and business, Gao Pragmatic suddenly remembered one thing and said to Liu Xin: "By the way, you came just in time this time, although Jinghua has a big family, it has been very tight recently, and it is necessary to find some new resources quickly...... Are there any other mines in southern Xinjiang that are easy to mine? Preferably a precious metal mine, I need an emergency. ”

Liu Xin said with a smile: "Yo, I, the secretary of the chairman, will officially take office now?" ”
