Chapter 226: A few things about winning people’s hearts

 The newly established Liaodong Governor's Office is fully responsible for the roster and rank classification of the entire Liaodong army and generals, and also assists Yuan Chonghuan in the transfer of grain, fodder and logistics.

As the new governor of Liaodong, He Kegang is very busy these days.

In just ten days, He Kegang, who was originally relatively wealthy, was already wearing round-necked clothes and a jade belt hanging low.

"Your Majesty the Governor, please invite me over?" He Kegang raised his head from the document. Although the document was cumbersome, his eyes were exceptionally bright. He looked at the clerk who came to deliver the order and said: "Go back and tell the Governor that everything is complicated.

I won’t go.”

"The Governor said that it is the Fan family of the Eight Great Families of Shanshan and Shaanxi who have arrived with food and salary. I need you to go over and take a look." The little official came back with a smile on his face.

"Fan family?" He Kegang smacked his lips. The imperial court had no money, so Duke Lang could only raise military expenses by himself and borrow money from businessmen to support the military. This made this second-ranked Jinshi who was familiar with the four books of Confucianism a little helpless...

..

"I will tidy up and leave in a moment," He Kegang waved his hand.

"The young man is waiting for you at the door. The sedan has already arrived," the young official bowed and retreated to the door, then stood still.

Obviously, in the ears of these people, Wang Qi's order is an imperial edict, and there is no room for any discount.

Helpless, he put the volume in his hand aside and gave a few instructions to his several clerks. He Kegang could only pack up his clothes and follow the clerk out.

Governor's Office.

"He Kegang pays homage to your lord!"

When He Kegang was led to see Wang Qi, Fan Zhongjin and Fan Tai stood aside. Wang Qi sat on a chair and casually looked through the account books brought by the Fan family.

So this time, the eight families raided their homes to bring wages and logistical supplies.

"Sit down," Wang Qi did not raise his head and continued to look down at the account books.

He Kegang glanced at Fan Zhongjin's uncle and nephew who were standing aside obediently, and also stood waiting silently.

It takes about two cups of tea,

A snap,

Wang Qi closed the account book in his hand and placed it on the table, then raised his head and said with a smile: "Please sit down, don't stand there."

Governor Ji Liao's warm smile fell in the eyes of the three people, still making people feel fearful.

"Drink tea first." Wang Qi turned to look at He Kegang: "Master He, you have worked hard these days."

At this time, three maids entered the hall and served tea to the three of them.

"Thank you for your concern, sir, but for the sake of national affairs, I don't feel it's hard for the subordinates," He Kegang's eyes were bright and he seemed to be very excited.

"Master He is responsible for the military roster, the current deployment of each battalion, and the inspection and verification of rank classification," Wang Qi said, introducing to the Fan family's uncles and nephews: "In the past few days, the paperwork has been hard work, and it is no easier than the two of you."

"Why are you sharing your worries? My uncle and nephew are not as good as the worst." Fan Zhongjin has lived in Beijing for a long time, so he naturally knows how to speak appropriately.

"In this expedition to the Liao Dynasty, you can get more familiar with your daily routine." Wang Qi leaned on the chair and pointed at the thick account book with his finger: "Fan Tai can take up a casual position in the Bu Zheng Yamen and work under Mr. He."

Fan Tai, who had been bowing his head to listen to the instructions and had no chance to speak, became happy when he heard the words, stood up and bowed: "Fan Tai will live up to the cultivation of the Governor!"

On the other hand, He Kegang, who was sitting aside, was stunned and turned to look at this young man from a merchant family.

He Kegang has no prejudice against businessmen. As for the reason why Wang Qi arranged Fan Tai by his side, it is very simple: it is not only a reward for the Fan family, but also a supervision of it.

"After a few days, when things in Liaodong are straightened out," Wang Qi picked up the teacup, gently blew away the tea leaves on the surface, and then took a small sip. The mouth was fragrant: "He Kegang led the army, Lu Xiang was promoted to deputy general, you two

People should go to Horqin."

What is the relationship between Horqin and Wang Qi?

This is a tacit thing throughout Liaodong,

After all, Princess Horqin Hailanzhu now lives in the palace of Duke Langguo in the capital.

Although she is not the head of the house, she is pregnant with the eldest son and daughter, which is a definite matter.

Didn’t even the court and the emperor say anything?

He Kegang moved his eyes, bowed and said, "Sir, do you want to borrow troops?"

"I have already written to Horqin's Yueshan Khan. When the time comes, the royal court will send 20,000 troops to cooperate with our Ming army's attack on gold." Wang Qi gently put the cup back on the table: "How to do it specifically, Lu Xiangsheng will be fully responsible for it. You

All you need to do is convey the meaning to Yueshan!"

As a civil servant, it is necessary for He Kegang to go to Horqin on behalf of Wang Qi.

As the military attache commander, Lu Xiangsheng should be in charge of military affairs.

Throughout Liaodong, under Wang Qi's rule, military and political affairs were separated, each with its own capabilities, which is evident.

"I obey!" He Kegang nodded.

On the other side, Fan Zhongjin was already looking at his nephew eagerly. The God-given opportunity is right in front of him. If he seizes it, he will rise to the top and enter the house, and he will never be fettered by the lowliness of a merchant in the future!

After all, Wang Qi had just said personally that Fan Tai should work with He Kegang.

If you go with the army to Horqin, you can be considered as studying with him.

"Sir," Fan Tai adjusted his breathing gently, stood up and bowed to Wang Qi: "Student Fan Tai is willing to follow the army to Horqin and do his best for our Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition!!"

Yes, what can you accomplish by staying in Guangning City?

At the beginning, Wang Qi also led 27 servants to Sipingbao to start his rise. Fan Tai, who regarded Duke Lang as sacred, felt that he should follow the army out of Liaodong, go to Horqin, walk through the grasslands, and enter Houjin.

"Playing with abacus is not as good as following the army," Wang Qi smiled: "Can you use swords and guns?"

"Students dare not say they are proficient in all of the six arts of a gentleman, but in the art of riding and shooting, I am considered the number one in my family!" Fan Tai always looked up involuntarily in front of Wang Qi, but now when he talks about his special skills, he also

Subconsciously, he straightened his waist and wanted to prove himself to Wang Qi.

"Hahaha," looking at Fan Tai's appearance, Wang Qi thought of himself in his previous life. Young people are not afraid of being immature, but if they don't lose their sharpness, there is no hope.

"In the past few days, you will learn from Mr. He first, read more, memorize more, and do more," Wang Qi did not agree immediately, but smiled and said: "When the time comes, if Mr. He says yes, that's okay, I will

I would like to allow you to be a food supervisor with the army, try it out, and see how you do..."

"Thank you, Fan Tai, for your help!"

With a plop, Fan Tai bowed down and kowtowed to Wang Qi.

"Sir, the food is ready," the maid quietly reported to Wang Qi outside the door.

"Get up, it's not such a big gift. After all, I still owe the Fan family millions of dollars, which I have yet to repay. I feel uneasy." Wang Qi stood up and said to several people in the hall: "I have prepared some food and wine, so let's wash away the dust."

."

"Whenever you are in need, the Fan family will spend all their wealth without hesitation!" Fan Tai was used by Wang Qi, and Fan Zhongjin felt at ease.
