In the flower hall, Mu Tianyan looked at Xia Nan who was sitting at the bottom with mixed feelings. It stands to reason that this person is bold and reckless, daring to bombard the city of Guangzhou alone, and after being appeased, he put forward a lot of harsh conditions, and he is the public enemy of Guangdong officialdom, and as the head of the Guangzhou officials, he should be well trained and rectified.
However, Mu Tianyan knew that half of the credit for his ability to get the position of governor was due to this thorn, if it weren't for him, he would not have an extra position as governor out of thin air, and he was still struggling in the position of Zuobu's political envoy. Moreover, the combat power of the Qiongzhou battalion also made him salivate, and he once wanted to win it over and become his own Fubiao battalion.
Mu Tianyan shook his head, as if he wanted to shake these distracting thoughts out of his head. Then he asked slowly: "Why did Xia Shen come this time?" ”
Xia Nan said: "Xia Guan is an official for the first time, and he is a monk halfway, and he doesn't understand many rules, so he came to ask Futai for advice." After speaking, he presented a gift list, "A small gift is not a tribute." ”
Mu Tianyan felt funny in his heart, a small general, with a general soldier on his head, actually crossed the level to find a provincial governor, and he was really a wild man who became a monk halfway and didn't understand the rules. I took the gift list casually, glanced at it, and a little dissatisfaction disappeared in an instant.
The gift list is only a thin piece of paper, but it weighs as much as a thousand catties in the hand, and the gifts listed are as follows: 100 bottles of hardcover Tianya incense, 1,000 pieces of high-grade Qiongzhou cloth, 200 guns from Qiongzhou, and 10 cannons.
Mu Tianyan couldn't help but bow slightly, Nan's gift list this summer was really right for his appetite: Tianya Xiang is selling well in Guangzhou, whether it is for self-drinking or banqueting guests, and during this period of sealing the shop, a situation has been formed with a price and no market, from the unit price of 2 taels of silver has been fried to 5 taels, and it is still difficult to find a bottle, and he will give him a hundred bottles at once, which can be described as a big deal; Needless to say, Qiongzhou cloth is also excellent; And this firearm and cannon, if it had been given to him a few months earlier, when he was only a political envoy of Zuobu, it would be useless, and at this time to give it to him, it is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, the first governor, need to establish an elite Fubiao, is in need of sophisticated firearms equipment.
Xia Nan explained in a timely manner: "This fire gun and cannon are several times better than the bird guns and Hongyi cannons under He Rubin's subordinates in the past. It was with such a cannon that Xia Guan defeated his army with one as ten. ”
Mu Tianyan's eyes lit up, so to speak, with such a sharp firearm, his Fubiao is one of the best in Guangdong, and Xiong Zhengtai's supervision standard cannot be compared.
However, the strongest is still this Xia Shen General who single-handedly defeated the provincial battalion soldiers. Thinking of this, Mu Tianyan weighed it in his heart, and felt that it was necessary to probe the mind of this Xia Shen general to see if he could win him over.
"General Xia Shen really has a heart." Mu Tianyan lightly brought the matter of the gift list with a word, "General Xia Shen has trained the army, and he can also make such a sophisticated firearm, which is really the talent of the pillars of the imperial court." As the new governor of this official, he is walking on thin ice on how to manage the political army, for fear of living up to the trust of the saint, and for fear of dragging down Xiong Zhengtai, and he needs the full help of people like General Xia Shen...... I don't know how long Xia Shen will stay in the provincial capital this time, will he go to Zhaoqing to visit Taiwan? ”
Xia Nan vaguely guessed what he meant, and the vernacular translation is: This governor is newly appointed, and he needs a powerful younger brother, although the governor has jurisdiction over the two Guangzhou, but this official is responsible for the military, political and civil affairs of Guangdong Province, and it is not a decoration, this acre and three points of land still works to speak, depending on which thigh you hold.
For Xiong Wencan, who held high the banner of the appeasement policy, Xia Nan has not been very cold, except for appeasing Zheng Zhilong, this person's career has no bright spots. Besides, the governor's second-in-command needs more urgent than the governor's first-in-command to seek help, getting closer to Mu Tianyan is a charcoal in the snow, getting closer to Xiong Wencan is the icing on the cake, and the rate of return on investing in the former is bound to be higher.
Xia Nan said with a smile: "It's already presumptuous for the lower officials to dare to visit Futai, so I won't bother the station." In fact, with his glorious deeds of defeating He Rubin and bombarding Guangzhou City, Xiong Wencan did not dare to snub him when he really went to Zhaoqing.
Mu Tianyan was determined when he heard this, such a military general who can fight, can make money, and knows how to be a man, he can't find a second one in Guangdong, and the combat effectiveness of the troops is second to none in the province.
In a good mood, he took the initiative to ask about the other party's business: "Xia Shen will fight very well, and he is also a good hand when he sits up and trades. ”
Xia Nan said modestly: "Where, where." In the future, in the provincial capital, you will have to rely on Futai to take care of it. ”
"Of course. Actually, I have a suggestion, if you buy and sell wine and cloth, the workshop can be directly located in the provincial capital, and wouldn't it save a lot of trouble to buy materials and sell goods? ”
Xia Nan's heart moved, this is a good proposal. In the past, no one in Guangzhou covered, only dare to open a shop, dare not open a factory, in case there is a wind and grass to play all the fun, now on the governor, the factory moved to Guangzhou, from the recruitment of workers, the purchase of raw materials to the sale of all aspects are much more convenient, but also save a lot of time and transportation costs.
"Futai's proposal is very good, and the lower officials will discuss it with the stewards when they go back."
Mu Tianyan was still unsatisfied, and said: "The workshop moved to the provincial capital, the benefits are more than these, and it can be sold from Guangdong to Fujian, Zhejiang, and even Nanjing, which is not stronger than you nesting in Qiongzhou Mansion?" ”
Xia Nan was completely moved, taking advantage of the manpower and resources of the provincial capital, as well as the influence in the southern coast, to sell goods to the coastal Fujian, Zhejiang, Nanjing and other rich provinces, and suddenly became a provincial-level enterprise from a county-level enterprise. It's not that he can't think of this, it's just that he didn't have the conditions before, and he didn't have such a plan, but it was really shocking that an ancient person could have such a consciousness. He looked at Mu Tianyan in surprise, even if this governor is not an official, he is also a good hand at going to the sea to do business.
Xia Nan gave a thumbs up and praised: "Futai is wise! If Futai doesn't dislike it, this transaction will be counted as your dry shares, and the silver will be sent directly to the house at that time. "The focus of commerce has shifted to the provincial capital, so it is very necessary to use the way of interest bundling to pull the governor on his ship.
Mu Tianyan was happy, and stroked his beard and excused himself: "As the governor of a province, how can this official compete with the people for profit." It's just that your business is doing well, and it is enough to send some local products at the end of the year. ”
Whether it is dry stocks or local products, it is nothing more than a change of name, Xia Nan and Mu Tianyan know each other, and this transaction is considered to be completed. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
