124 Governor of Qiongzhou
Shiroku Mine, this is the name Hai Dafu gave himself to this mine, because the stones on this mountain are almost all faint patina.
Li Tianyang agreed to Hai Dafu's invitation to let him take a stake in the Shilu Mine without thinking about it, and the mountains of iron ore in the Shilu Mine alone were enough to impress Li Tianyang.
However, although Li Tianyang is shrewd, he still has something to do as a person, and he does not do something, Hai Dafu's behavior makes Li Tianyang embarrassed to take away the huge iron ore without giving a penny, but the lack of sufficient funds also makes Li Tianyang want to compensate the other party from another angle.
Wei Zhongxian's eunuch gang became more and more arrogant in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, so that in order not to offend or even befriend Wei Zhongxian, many local prefects, county magistrates and other officials built shrines for Wei Zhongxian and patted him on the back.
At this time, Ni Wei, the governor of Qiongzhou Prefecture, also inevitably built a shrine for Wei Zhongxian in his own mansion to show his deference to Wei Zhongxian.
It is said that the prefect Ni Zhuo was originally a cadre, and he has served as the prefect of many places and has talents, and he has a lot of research on the shipyard, and the new chapter of the shipyard is even collected by Li Tianyang in their library, which is really a rare good book.
However, the family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and according to his ability and deeds, even if he doesn't know how to do it, he will definitely not be assigned to Qiongzhou Mansion to be the prefect.
It is important to know that in the Ming Dynasty, almost all the officials who served in the three prefectures and eight counties of Qiongzhou were not powerful in the court, or offended the officials and were assigned here.
Ni Wei himself is actually considered Zhou Zheng as an official, he has always worked hard and complained, and the people under his jurisdiction are also very affectionate, but who let him give birth to a good son, his eldest son Ni Yuanlu was his enemy in his previous life, and how many disasters have he brought him.
Ni Yuanlu and his person, influenced by Confucianism since childhood, and later in the process of studying with the Donglin Party too closely, and his teacher is Yuan Keli, a famous minister of the court, is not liked by the eunuch party, so since the second year of his apocalypse, he has repeatedly written to the imperial court, denouncing the eunuch party, but at that time he was promoted to a Japanese lecturer, often haunted the emperor's side, Wei Zhongxian and others had no choice but to make a fuss about his father, that is, Ni Zhuo, and beat Ni Yuanlu.
Ni Wei is old enough to have a son, and his son is so good, as a father, he is naturally happy for him, and he feels that he is worth it after suffering a little grievance. It's just that at this time, the eunuch party is powerful, and although Ni Wei loves his son and protects his son for the sake of the family, he has to make a deferential gesture to Wei Zhongxian, firstly, he naturally hopes that Wei Zhongxian will be less entangled, and secondly, he also hopes to ask for mercy for his son.
As for what Wei Zhongxian thought after this matter was sued, it was not something that Ni Wei could know, but in this way, in Li Tianyang's eyes, there were some ways to operate.
Finding an opportunity, Li Tianyang sent a letter of worship as the admiral of the Fujian Navy Division, and easily met Ni Zhuo, the prefect of Qiongzhou.
"Ni Governor's Mansion, the lower officials took the liberty to come and look at Haihan!" Li Tianyang did not wear an official uniform, but met Ni Wei in a regular uniform.
It is said that the two of them are in terms of rank, but Li Tianyang, who is from the third grade, is two orders higher than Ni Wei, the prefect of the fourth grade, but it is already a practice in the Ming Dynasty to emphasize literature and light martial arts, and Ni Wei himself has been in politics for many years, and his seniority is there, even if Li Tianyang's official rank is obviously higher at this time, but Ni Wei is not moved by the difference in the identities of the two sides, and calmly meets guests as equals.
"I have long heard that there is a young tiger in my Qiongzhou Prefecture, and today I saw that it was really a hero and a teenager!" Ni Zhuoqi is now a drooping old man, with a smile on his pale face, but there are a lot of wrinkles, but he is extraordinarily kind.
"My lord has won the award, and the lower official just has a little more luck, where can he be praised as a hero!" Li Tianyang hurriedly replied politely.
Although Li Tianyang did not embark on the road of a literati as his father and teacher expected, but with many years of study experience in his past and present lives, Li Tianyang still showed a knowledgeable appearance in front of Ni Wei, a talented person, which was very different from ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, but he won the favor of the old prefect in an instant.
Ni Wei, who was only forty-three years old and had a son, is now a dying old man in his seventies, and he is already retired at this age in later generations, but he can still mix in the officialdom in this era.
Because of this, to be honest, Ni Zhuoqi is actually a little bit unclear, otherwise with what his son did in the court, he should not have done anything to build a shrine for Wei Zhongxian in the local area. Although his intentions are naturally for the sake of the family, it can also be seen that his mental and mental aspects are affected by age.
At this time, seeing the young Li Tianyang talking politely with him, Ni Zhuo, who was under the favor of the freshman, couldn't help but ask kindly: "I don't know why Admiral Li came this time?" ”
"Xiaguan is presumptuous, it is really Xiaguan who bought some things in Xiachanghua County, Qiongzhou Mansion this time, and needs to be transported back to Dayuan Jilonggang camp, so I came to say hello to the prefect!" If you want to transport a large amount of iron ore back from Changhua County without alarming the local state capital, it must be impossible, so Li Tianyang simply found Ni Wei and said hello in advance.
"I wonder if you can tell me what this purchase is, and how do you need this government to cooperate?" Although Ni Zhuo's mind is occasionally confused, he has been in the officialdom all the year round, and when he saw Li Tianyang greeting him, he must have bought a lot of money!
"I was about to ask the prefect to help, and the new camp of Xiaguan Jilong Port was established, and it was necessary to build a large number of camps, which lacked a lot, and I heard that there was a lot of lime and charcoal in Qiongzhou County, so I came to buy it before, and I also asked the prefect to support it!" Li Tianyang's reason is not bad, at least for Ni Wei, who has never been to Jilong Port, these materials should indeed be what Li Tianyang needs for them.
"I see, the Admiral's Mansion of the Chicken Coop Harbor Navy Division is the face of the court, and it is not allowed to be sloppy, since the Admiral asks for the official, if the official shirks, it is impossible to say. Anyway, the official ordered to raise some lime and charcoal for the admiral to help the admiral. Ni Zhuo already had a good impression of the young and polite Li Tianyang, and at this time, seeing that what Li Tianyang asked for was not a big deal, he immediately accepted it.
"Thank you for your love, but this time, Xia Guan has purchased an industry in Changhua County, specializing in the production of lime and charcoal, and I will ask you to take care of it in the future!" The foreshadowing is precisely for the sake of a request that seems to be casual at this moment, but in fact has ulterior motives.
"It's okay, wait for the official to send an official document, and let the Changhua County Order take care of it!" A little lime and charcoal kiln mouth, in Ni Wei's opinion, is just a trivial matter, and it can be regarded as earning some good karma with Li Tianyang, a young talent.
"Thank you, sir!" Li Tianyang was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was silent, and he replied lightly, as if it was just a random question, and it was not a big deal.
