"Dadu Governor, it's not early, so I'll rest when I come out, I'm afraid that the imperial historians will gossip......"

The attendant was a little worried, but Wang Ziteng was disdainful and waved his sleeves, "Business is important, and my family affection is naturally also very important, it's nothing more than saying a few words, and it won't delay much time!" ”

Wang Ziteng was very majestic, after saying such a sentence, the people below didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly gave an order, Xue Pan hurriedly asked Wang Ziteng to eat some freshly bought fruits, Wang Ziteng was not polite, rolled up his sleeves and ate half a watermelon, "Good melon, good melon, this watermelon is the best to eat fresh, the ones bought in Su Ri don't know how long they have been saved, and they are not fresh!" ”

Xue Wangshi and Wang Ziteng said a few words of gossip that were difficult to say goodbye to in the past, and said to Wang Ziteng, "Where is the second brother going?" I entered Beijing with your niece and niece, and I was ready to go to you, my niece is filial and well-behaved, but your nephew, I really can't discipline it, so I have to ask the second brother to help manage it when I enter Beijing, otherwise it will be too wild in the future, and there will be chaos, and it will be bad for him to suffer a loss. ”

Xue Pan was a little embarrassed when he heard his mother say this, and was ready to refute that he was one of the top ten outstanding teenagers in Jinling Province, but he was really embarrassed to say it, after all, the affairs of the Feng family were only done, Wang Ziteng smiled, "Boys and girls are different, it's okay to be wilder, count it up, your second brother and I were also the wildest in the past, and the master didn't beat and scold that day in the past?" Now that he has grown up, it is naturally good, although his nephew is a little wilder," Wang Ziteng nodded appreciatively towards Xue Pan, "But the word loyalty and righteousness are still there, the big pleats don't leak, small things, what's the matter?" No matter how poor it is, my uncle can help me. ”

The prince was full of arrogance, but Xue Wang's family was disgusted, "If the second brother is like this, I don't dare to hand him over to you to discipline, what will you reward him like this, and when the time comes, I will not be able to clean up when I teach a Monkey King who makes trouble in the Heavenly Palace." ”

Wang Ziteng smiled dumbly, "The fourth sister is just worried too much, but although I have the heart to teach my nephew, but now I can't do it," he explained to Xue Wang, "You are on the way, probably haven't received my letter yet, a few days ago, the Holy Lord has entrusted me to inspect the border of the nine provinces, and this time I will be ordered to go out of Beijing, if it is not for chance, I am afraid that I will not be able to see it." ”

Xue Wang's family was shocked, "I have only been appointed as the envoy of the Jingying Festival for a few days, why did I go out again?" It's not a good thing to sleep outside and wander uncertainly, although the second brother is healthy, but he has already had some spring and autumn, how can he still go to patrol the border? ”

Wang Ziteng smiled slightly, "The Holy Decree is like this, I am also willing to go out like this," he nodded towards Xue Pan, "Nephew, guess what, where am I going?" ”

"The second uncle's original head of the Southwest Expedition is still in office, right?" Xue Pan smiled, "This must be the southwest, isn't it?" ”

"Guess accurately," Wang Ziteng nodded with satisfaction, "This time the nine provinces are inspecting the border, the most important thing is to go to the southwest to preside over the war, Shangri-La can no longer support it," he spoke quite directly in front of Xue Pan, "I have been on the table several times, but the saint just doesn't allow it, I want to finish my work in one battle, annihilate all the rebellions, and let me go to the southwest to pick peaches at the last time, and take this military merit." ”

This is also the meaning of the question, Prince Teng is the henchman of Emperor Yonghe, since this dynasty, the military merit is the most expensive, to his henchman to increase the military merit resume, such a great merit, in the future can be calmly turned into a political official, even if it is a direct visit, no one dares to say anything.

Wang Ziteng obviously believes in Xue Pan very much, he exchanged letters before, and he admired this nephew very much, and he was rare to see today, so he had to take a test, "Since Pan'er is here, I am going to test you, and you say that the second uncle and I will go to the southwest, how to do the things here beautifully?" What's the trick up your sleeve? ”

Xue Pan spread his hands and smiled bitterly, "Uncle really treats me as Zhuge Liang?" I'm confused about the southwest, and everything I know is from the newspaper, so what other tricks can I tell my uncle there? What a shame for my nephew! ”

Wang Ziteng just didn't allow it, he smiled at Xue Wang's family, "The son of the fourth sister is in an official relationship with his uncle." ”

Xue Wang said with a smile, she was very happy to see her most admired second brother, and her most beloved son could get along so well, and it was like a friend at first sight, "How old is he, and how old is the second brother still treating him as a gentleman who has ideas?" Pan'er, you are really," Xue Wang said angrily, "Uncle is joking with you, you are still serious." ”

Baochai pursed her lips and smiled, "There are a lot of ghost ideas in my brother's stomach, don't underestimate my brother." ”

"What my nephew and daughter said is very true, I'm really not joking," Wang Ziteng shook his hand, "Don't you know how much effort Pan'er has made and how many good ideas he has come up with in the matter of running the plague avoidance pill and reassigning the salt introduction, I don't need this ready-made little Zhuge from my own family, can I still invite people outside?" That's a reluctance! ”

Wang Ziteng said so, Xue Pan is not easy to push, okay, I didn't expect to come to Luoyang, it is not false that he did not cause trouble, but there will be a test in front of him immediately, he thought carefully about the news in the newspaper, and planned again in his heart, and said while thinking: "The southwest land, the terrain is steep, and the climate is not good, I remember that Xu Xiake's travelogue said that this place is a hundred times more difficult than Shu Dao, such a place, if you want to destroy the enemy, it is naturally simple, but if you want to never rebel, this is the most difficult." ”

Wang Ziteng put away the smile on his face, and listened to Xue Pan solemnly, "I think that if you want to do it once and for all, then it is natural to build roads, but this thing is unrealistic," The current infrastructure is definitely not as strong as the super power in the future generations, and it is absolutely impossible to build roads in Tibet to the plains here in Chengdu. "Then it seems that this thing can't be done, if you want to change it, then there are only two ways."

Pan'er can actually think of two methods, Wang Ziteng's eyes lit up, he didn't think that there would be any repetition of the war in the southwest, the army pressed the border, presumably it would be solved soon, but Wang Ziteng prided himself on being talented, and he was by no means only charging into battle, only knowing how to kill, and not knowing how to protect the territory and the people, and educate the people, Xue Pan didn't talk about military matters, but talked about the follow-up mess, and the appetite for Wang Ziteng, "Pan'er, you say it quickly, it's those two methods." ”

"The first one is to spend money to buy," Xue Pan said with a smile, "I heard that Shangri-La country has a lot of production that the rest of the places don't have, how much can they make in that poor place?" If we buy all their specialties, the businessmen are profit-seeking, not to mention anything else, just say that the dignitaries and nobles in the capital buy some, and those who sell us things will be friendly with us, if there are still people who want to rebel, these people who have made a profit from doing business with us will definitely be unwilling to smash their jobs, who wants to? ”

"There is some truth ...... this," the prince pondered. ”

"Not to mention anything else, I heard that Shangri-La country, out of the best mountain treasures, called matsutake mushrooms," Xue Pan said about the food Adam's apple rolling, swallowing saliva, "Ordinary people outside the leisure can not see this thing, if it is rare to see it is just dry goods, but not see fresh, as the saying goes: 'flying dragon in the sky, matsutake mushroom on the ground', if this thing can be shipped out of a line in Shangri-La country, others dare not say, I must go to the horse to buy and eat." ”

"The money spent here is better than anything else," Xue Pan said with a smile, "Counting, it's much cheaper than military spending, besides, this is not the old coins of the former Song Dynasty, given to those kings outside, squandered in vain, even if there are a lot of cats in it, but how much can it give the mountain people more income, people like silver, don't they?" With this money, although there are not many of these people, if someone tells them to rebel in the future, they may not necessarily follow. ”

"Pan'er's assertion is wonderful," Wang Ziteng gave Xue Pan a thumbs up, "I have heard this economic rebellion for the first time." ”
