After being asked such a sentence, Xu Xun's evaluation of Gu Dayong rose sharply.
Zhu Houzhao favored many eunuchs, but Xu Xun had the most dealings with Liu Jin and Zhang Yong. Liu Jin was sincere but cunning, while Zhang Yong was ambitious. In other words, they were the two most inefficient people among those who were trying their best to shine.
Zhan. In comparison, Gu Dayong usually seems carefree, but there is also an element of cunning. Otherwise, he would just accept the benefits first, so there is no need to ask more questions.
At this moment, Xu Xun picked up the bowl and took another sip of oil tea, then put down the bowl and said, "It's not that they can help you without them, but it's that this thing can be done without them, but it can't be done without you.
Furthermore, Lao Liu is now in charge of the Bell and Drum Division, and he is busy all morning and there is no time to do so; Lao Zhang is the supervisor of the avant-garde of the government army, and there are 1,500 new people there, and he simply cannot do without it. Moreover, to do
What this matter requires is name. Who has it except you? Besides, I had no intention of leaving them alone in this matter. I won’t need them to do anything at that time, but I will give them 10% of the bonus, plus everyone else will share it.
If it's moisturized, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
When Gu Dayong heard this, he finally felt relieved, so he chuckled and said, "Let me tell you, Lao Liu and I are so good at wearing a pair of trousers. Even Lao Zhang has been friends for many years, and we have known each other for many years.
If they blame me for eating alone, I won't be able to resist it. You can handle it well. However, you said that you want to build the outer city and Tonghui River. Can the bosses at this meeting pass it?"
"This matter will have to be discussed later. Nowadays, there is no open space in the capital. More and more stores and houses are being built outside Xuanwu Gate, Zhengyang Gate, and Chongwen Gate. Many of them come to the capital from other places to do business.
But you also know the situation of the little prince's tribes invading the border before. To put it bluntly, during the orthodox Jingtai period, the capital was once invaded by Tatar troops. Even if there was no war, the outside of the city was not as good as the inside.
It is safe. Which of those houses outside the city has not been attacked by bandits? Those who are rich ask for protection, but what about those who have no money? Once more and more people gather outside the city, there will be loud voices calling for the construction of the outer wall and the dredging of the Tonghui River.
It's getting higher and higher, so we don't have to worry about this. What we have to do now is how to use this outer city to generate money."
This conversation lasted for the whole midnight. Gu Dayong was used to staying up late with Zhu Houzhao on weekdays, but they were just playing with the new gadgets that His Highness the Crown Prince liked. He had never worked so hard on business. He stayed up until dawn, and he finally endured it.
He couldn't help but hit the desk with his red eyes and shouted: "Bring me tea, I want the strongest tea!"
Xu Xun had been busy before and never rested, and now he had to yawn lazily. Not long after he yawned, someone opened the door and came in to bring tea. Gu Dayong took a cup of Gudu without looking at it.
Gudu drank it all, and when he raised his eyes and saw the person clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "Are all those brats outside dead? How dare you ask Lao Zhong to deliver tea?"
"They took turns on duty and didn't sleep all night. Now they have to go out to do errands during the day. Since I stayed behind to come in and bring a cup of tea, it was appropriate." I have grown my hair for almost a year and tidied up my messy beard.
After being cleaned up, and having been hanging out here for a while, Huitong now looks naturally not as careless and carefree as when he was hanging out with Xu Liang. He has a bit of an official air. Now
After he served the tea with a smile, he reported a few trivial matters to Gu Dayong as if he were a subordinate. After Gu Dayong decided one by one, he retreated.
Xu Xun looked on with joy in his eyes. As soon as the people retreated, he smiled and said: "Lao Gu, I can't tell you are not humming. Not to mention that this team has been established, and even the prestige is very good.
.Looking at this man’s age, could he be the old team from the West Factory?”
"Brother Xu, your vision is really first-class!" Gu Da drank a cup of strong tea at this moment, and became energetic again. He immediately smiled and said, "This talent really needs to be investigated. Back then, the tree in the West Factory was a hozen tree.
After all, most of the people were dead and only two or three kittens and puppies were left. Zhong Hui was still a general bannerman back then, and he escaped very quickly.
He has seriously worked with Wei Ying and Wu Shou, and even Wang Zhi has seen him. I found his name on the roster, and there are also people with small names who have seen him. Otherwise, how would he dare to be entrusted with the task of punishing thousands of households?
?”
Although it was obvious from this posture that Huitong was in trouble, at this moment when he heard the words "handle and punish thousands of households", Xu Xun still almost didn't pop his eyes out, and further understood that Gu Da, who had no team of his own in the past,
Yong is so thirsty for talents! At this moment, he covered up the surprise by coughing, and then gave Gu Dayong a thumbs up.
"If someone suddenly gets such a high position, it must be nepotism. Lao Gu, this is a brilliant move! Even if this person is just in name only, he didn't have much ability in Xichang back then, so he just used this daughter to buy horse bones as a gimmick.
, there will definitely be countless people who come under your command in the future. However, now that Wang Yue is still here, you should be stricter and try to prevent others from getting caught."
"Feng shui has changed. At first, we in the East Palace were respectful to him, but he didn't even look at us. Now that we are popular, he is not as good as before, so naturally he feels unhappy! I can't spare you what you said, isn't it?
As the old saying goes, never lose sight of yourself when you are proud, I understand this!"
Gu Dayong has a character that respects others as much as he respects me. From last night to this morning, Xu Xun said every word to his heart. Naturally, he felt that this brother was kind and honest, so he nodded repeatedly.
, but he praised Huitong so much that Xu Xun wanted to laugh but could only hold it back, not to mention how hard it was to hold it in. When he went out to say goodbye, he didn’t know that Gu Dayong meant to show off.
To treat his subordinates like a boss, or for some other reason, when he learned that Xu Xun planned to go home at night, he simply asked Huitong to give him a ride, but this played into Xu Xun's plan.
Therefore, there are many places to employ people in Fan Palace. Xu Xun only brought out a horse bridge. At this time, he motioned for people to follow him at a distance. He rode his horse forward, talking to Huitong in a low voice all the way. At first, it was nothing.
It was just some polite words, and when he arrived at a place with few people, he said calmly: "Monk, congratulations, you finally got what you wanted.
"Where, where, if I hadn't followed the prince, where would I be today?"
Huitong really had mixed feelings. At this time last year, he, Xu Liang, and even Xu Xun himself were still struggling in the pool of sewage in Jinling. Now times have changed, Xu Liang has seized the title of his ancestors, and he
He re-entered Xichang and became the master of thousands of households, and Xu Xun won the trust of the new emperor who was about to ascend the throne. This was an earth-shaking change. After he said these words sincerely, he no longer left any trace.
He asked, "Does the Crown Prince have any other instructions?"
"I don't have any other instructions. Just follow Gu Dayong and do your job, but remember to give advice where it's necessary to give advice and don't let people get too carried away. There is only one thing. You have to set up the Xichang information network.
Then track down two people for me."
Of course Huitong knew that the current Xichang was just a showpiece, and his informants would not reach the corresponding level in terms of quality or quantity for a while, so he naturally agreed repeatedly and immediately asked, "Does the prince want to investigate Qian people?"
"
"The first one is the man from Di Ju who once stayed at Jiao Fang's house. Although this man is dead, there is something fishy about it. Maybe after the prince ascends the throne soon, if he is still thinking about it, he will use Xichang to trace it. You
There is nothing wrong with taking the lead. It was he who presented two elixir prescriptions to Liu Wentai, who presented them to Emperor Daxing. After that, various coincidences led to the current ending. This person once lived in Jiangxi Guild Hall,
Jiao Fang said he is dead, but it is unbelievable. You should follow this path to investigate first. As for the second person you want to investigate, it is my adoptive father Xu Bian."
Seeing Huitong stunned, Xu Xun roughly recounted what the little girl said before, then looked at Huitong and said, "A person who didn't appear when he should have appeared, and suddenly appeared when he shouldn't have appeared, and he also
It was him who really made it impossible for me to let it go. There were too many messy things before, and I didn’t want dad to know about his worries, so I hid it, but you are different. You have been dad’s close friend for many years, and you are now in the West.
Factory, I can only trust you to investigate this matter."
Even though he claimed to be smart or shrewd, Huitong only felt that one was bigger than the other, but the difficulty of the matter did not lie in the bizarreness of the matter, but in another aspect. After being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked; "
If it is really found out that Xu Bian planned the incident, wouldn't the prince be afraid that I would tell your father directly?"
"Although Jinling recognized his father because of the situation, it was also because the two of us had helped each other before. We only recognized each other but did not reject each other. Xu Dong's stupid move may as well have dispelled our last worry, but everyone
How can a child who is not three years old be so gullible? I even suspected that it was you who caused the trouble, not to mention that my father has experienced so many years of life in vain. If you really find out the truth of what happened back then, you don’t need to tell me.
Naturally, I will make it clear to my father."
Huitong stared at Xu Xun for a long time, and finally sighed: "Master, please don't make it clear. Your father and I have been brothers for decades, and we understand him best. He is confused on the surface, but he knows clearly on the inside.
You are not his biological son, but even your biological son may not be as considerate as you, so it is better to continue to maintain the status quo. Don’t even think about giving him a woman so that he can truly keep a heir. Although he had no money or power before,
, but there is no woman who really wants it, but she is extremely sad. In short, you and your son will continue to live how you want to live. I will investigate this matter carefully and wait for my news! "
When they parted, Xu Xun breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw Huitong turning around and walking away. Naturally, he could keep this matter tightly in his heart. In the future, his team would be formed, and then he would give orders.
Let's go check it out slowly. However, he always has some unspeakable emotions towards Xu Bian, an adoptive father who has no relationship in name. What's more, the death of Emperor Hongzhi was too sudden. He suddenly came to the forefront with Zhu Houzhao.
It is not enough to withstand certain emergencies. Instead of waiting for things to happen in the future and being caught off guard, it is better to be in front. Just like Gu Dayong, people who have not read a few books know that, proudly
