Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1154
Shen Zhezi didn't entangle Xue Tao for too long, and quickly said: "The revival of the king's industry and the restoration of the world are the plans that the people of the world look up to. Only by gathering together and helping can we hope for success. All of them specialize in affairs. Xue Jun has the heart to help the king, and he is the righteous man that we and the king's ministers should greet."

"Recently, we have drafted a strategy for Taiwan, and we are also gathering the strength of wise and righteous people from all walks of life, hoping to achieve complete success and save our Jinmin villagers from suffering as soon as possible. With Xue Junshi's reputation and talents, I am I sincerely look forward to being able to serve as a minister with you, and to plan grand events together. It would be a disgrace if I only use it in a small way. Because I want to play the role of the king, please use a matching position for Mr. Xue. Before the edict arrives, I would like to greet Xue You temporarily entered Xingtai as a military staff officer, I don't know what Xue Jun wants?"

For someone like Xue Tao, as long as he is willing to bow his head for use, Shen Zhezi has no reason to refuse, but this does not mean that he has no bottom line to show his favor to MG.What Shen Zhezi said about playing the king is just an excuse. One shows that he attaches great importance to Xue Tao, and the other is to write a blank check first.

If Xue Tao really has the sincerity to invest in Xingtai and can show enough effect, Shen Zhezi, the state and county official, is also willing to give it.But it is absolutely impossible to obtain a high status just by showing goodwill, otherwise the dignity of the stage and various rules and regulations will become a joke.

Of course, he also believes that Xue Tao is not the kind of person who is just greedy for fame, otherwise he would not have been in office for decades.As for how to resolve the Hedong issue in the end, it still depends on the efforts of both parties.

This kind of situation caused by the harm of the world for decades should not be expected to be resolved in a short period of time.Especially in this situation where it is obvious that there is little basis for mutual trust at the moment, it is even more unnecessary to act too hastily.

Hearing General Shen's words, Xue Tao was also a little surprised. He was relieved at first, but then he was faintly disappointed.On the issue of what posture to face the stage, he was indeed very entangled.

On the one hand, he has a deep feeling for Wang Shiqiang, and he also understands that under the king's order and righteousness, it is difficult to maintain the closed-door self-defense in the countryside of Hedong for a long time.On the other hand, the situation in the countryside has been maintained for a long time. If there is any drastic change in a short period of time, it will definitely cause panic and turmoil, especially the palm of the people in Tainan, which makes him afraid to put the safety of the countryside in the hands of people.

It is precisely because of these considerations and entanglements that Xue Tao has been afraid to have too much contact with the walking platform.In the end, he is just a local tyrant, and his lifelong wish is only to protect the peace of one side. Even if he has any calculations for his own interests, he can't reach the height of looking wildly at the world and ruling the roost by cede territory.It is really difficult for him to grasp the square inch in such a complicated situation.

Before coming to see General Shen today, he had already weighed in his heart for a long time, but during the actual interview, he realized that most of the arguments he had prepared had not been said, and this General Shen had already made a choice in front of him.

Temporarily entered the Taiwan to prepare questions for the staff, but did not grant a specific official title. To be honest, the treatment is not high, and even a bit harsh.It is not presumptuous to say that although his family's influence is only concentrated in the east corner of the river, but when this place is an important point, it is also very important in this area.

Earlier, when the two Zhaos fought against each other, they were also recruited by him respectively, and they were promised the position of Lord Fang Bo.Hu Lu is cruel and cunning, and cannot be trusted, so Xue Tao has never responded to this kind of solicitation, and never thought of showing off and enslaving Hu Lu with local capital.

Xingtai treated him like this, on the surface it seems that there is no shortage of negligence, but Xue Tao also felt a little relieved because of this.This should mean that at least in the short term, Xingtai should not rush to bring Hedong into its strong rule.

But apart from being relieved, Xue Tao also had to admit that he was indeed not a sage, and he still longed for the title of title.

During today's interview, he also got a better understanding of General Shen. Under his great reputation, there are no worthless men. General Shen's demeanor made him change his slightly superficial and stereotyped impression of southerners in the past. He even vaguely felt that if he followed other It might not be a good choice to be under the command of others.

Xue Tao was still pondering here, but Fang Wang, who was chasing from the other side, was already a little excited. As soon as General Shen finished speaking, he hurriedly got up and said: "The general's martial arts are astonishing, and his martial art is equally profound. Thank you, my subordinate. Selected by Xingtai to take up a lowly position, although he has no talent to contribute, but he has received many kindnesses over the years, and he feels that Taiwan's government orders are prosperous, which is the only choice for the world. If you can get help from local affairs and folklore It is a feat of kingship, and it is an honor!"

After Shen Zhezi heard the words, he laughed: "The king's order is to accept the universal, and all people with great will are tolerant and generous. The greatest evil is to hinder the virtuous. Those who admire the king's way, I will respectfully welcome them, and do things well." There is no priority for those who have accumulated meritorious deeds, and they must be displayed."

Hearing this, Xue Tao was no longer entangled, and even opened his mouth and said: "The general is generous and grand, and the fool is ashamed to worship, it is really embarrassing to treat him politely. But since you have been honored, how dare you make a sideways evasion posture again, even though you are talented It is difficult to help the king with meager strength, but he will do his best to help the king."

"Thanks to Mr. Xue, there is no trouble in the west!"

Shen Zhezi laughed out loud when he heard the words, and immediately ordered someone to fetch two copies of the confession order, and directly gave Xue Tao and the two of them at the banquet.

The characteristic of Xingtai's military affairs lies in the expansion of the staff system. In addition to the commanders of the army who are assigned to join the army, the staff team is also very large.

Especially for such a huge military plan as Xizhengguanzhong, the staff team alone has as many as hundreds of people. Information that is helpful to the military can also be listed in the staff, and each of them will be rewarded for their merits, not just for the purpose of recruiting Xue Tao.

Of course, the staff talisman Xue Tao received was of the highest rank, and he could directly report military affairs to the general, and after the staff, he would add a sacrificial wine.

After hearing Shen Zhezi's brief description of this staff system, Xue Tao and others couldn't help but lament that Master Wang's repeated victories were not due to luck.In addition to elite soldiers and strong generals, coupled with such a comprehensive intelligence staff group, it will undoubtedly increase the chances of winning.

Although the military staff officer is only a temporary appointment, it also means Xue's first step in substantive contact with Xingtai.

Xue Tao was deeply impressed by General Shen's generosity and open-mindedness, as well as his thoroughness and prudence in doing things.

After his mind gradually calmed down, Xue Tao couldn't help but feel ashamed when he thought about his main purpose of entering Luo this time. After thinking about it again and again, he also felt that he should not hide this matter from General Shen, so he left the table and bowed deeply: " The General is very polite to me, but I am really ashamed. This is not an empty talk, it is true. This time when I entered Luo, besides worshiping the General, there is another evil deed that is hard to tell, but if you hide it If you don’t report it, you will really deceive the gentleman, and your heart will not be at ease.”

While speaking, he briefly explained the fact that he went to Luo to buy tea this time, and there was no lack of shame in his words: "I secretly communicated with thieves, lost my integrity, and the general praised me before. I am really ashamed..."

After Shen Zhezi heard the words, he also got up from the table, personally helped Xue Tao up and sent him to the table, and then sighed: "I don't care about the deeds, but Xue Jun can tell me this, it shows that I still have some knowledge after all. The wisdom of man is not mistaken about Mr. Xue. In this time of revolution and turmoil, Wang Ye still needs to avoid the guests and send them as a temporary expediency, so how can he expect the brave and righteous men in the country to be flawless? The crisis is ahead, and the manpower is occasionally unsustainable. Forbearance, this is also the way to settle down, but as long as the fundamental integrity is not lost, there is no need to be ashamed of it."

"For example, when I was young, I didn't have enough talents to express my ambitions, and I couldn't support my relatives. I still needed servants to serve me for food and clothing, and I had to rely on my parents' support for my education. It's not that my nature is inferior to others. After growing up, I will be strong and strong, shouldering my shoulders and shoulders, supporting the king's industry to revitalize Jiangbei, everyone praises me as a pillar, childish and despicable have become less and less talked about."

Not to mention that he already knew about this matter, even if he didn't know, there is no need to blame Xue Tao for it.The tea market has been booming within the past two years, and others may echo the rumors, but Shen Zhezi knows the reason best.

Heluo business is rising, and the disadvantages are actually becoming more and more obvious. The biggest problem is that there are too few commodities.It's not that the production capacity of the Central Plains and Jiangdong has been reduced, on the contrary, the production capacity has been greatly enhanced. The most important thing is that there are too few suitable commodities.

For example, large quantities of salt, iron, rice, etc., Shen Zhezi absolutely does not allow a large amount of outflow via Heluo. If he wants to continue to maintain the circulation of goods and maintain the prosperity of this kind of business, then he must develop new products, and the actual effect will be harmless. , but the profit prospect is huge enough, tea is the natural choice.

The plague that broke out in Guanzhong last year, in Shen Zhezi's view, was an excellent operation opportunity.The reason why the land of Heluo has not been greatly affected is definitely not because of some panacea or Ge Hong's superb medical skills, but because Heluo has efficient and comprehensive epidemic prevention methods.

This whole set of epidemic prevention measures can be said to have been laid since Shen Zhezi crossed the river and recruited a large number of wandering refugees.Especially after the Central Plains War in the early years, the migration of millions of people in Hebei would have been a disaster if there were no supporting epidemic prevention measures.

Shen Zhezi doesn't know how to treat the Hu people, so it's hard for him to describe how much tea has effect on them.But he understood that the Xiongnu during the Qin and Han Dynasties, including the current Wuhu, did not have tea to feed and did not become extinct. Later, the Khitan and Jurchen purchased tea on a large scale to support a considerable proportion of the Northern Song Dynasty’s finances, and they were not cultivated into heavenly soldiers. God will.

Some people can't tell what is good, but no one can replace it, and the same is probably true of things.

In any case, it would be of great significance if tea can be fed in advance to become addicted to the Hu people.You must know that the so-called five Hus are only two at the moment. If you can master this foreign trade weapon in advance, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance your war potential.

　Regarding tea, I have also searched for a long time. To be honest, I have not found any conclusive and credible evidence that it must have any effect. There is no conclusive evidence, so there is no more debate. . .
