Chapter 649 The Road to Appointment ([-])

After the second meeting of time-travelers, Emperor Cao, who was able to "pro-govern", fulfilled his promise and started "importing" time-travelers again.

Unlike the "predecessors", as the regime grows stronger and worries are reduced, the adaptation period of the "newcomers" is correspondingly shortened, and the time for "starting to work" is greatly advanced.

Among them, Wen Guangjun is one of the few "newcomers" who are willing to work in the General Intelligence Bureau.

Although Wen Guangjun's "previous life" was not high-ranking, he had done political review work for a period of time, and he came to the General Intelligence Bureau as a professional counterpart.

In fact, the joining of Wen Guangjun is very precious to the General Intelligence Bureau-most of the traversers from the military and police system, after figuring out the situation on their front feet, they pat their stomachs and go to the government to sit in an office with their back feet. Few of them are willing Back to the front of the previous life.

So, not long after Wen Guangjun went to work in the General Intelligence Bureau, Dai Yun, who was extremely short of manpower, parachuted him into the position of station chief of Fuzhou Station.

This arrangement is reasonable.

As the city with the earliest layout and the establishment of intelligence agencies across the city, today's Fuzhou has long been infiltrated by the intelligence system like a sieve.

To put it bluntly, if one day you hear General Cao raising the flag of rebellion, people from Fuzhou will rush to the governor's mansion in minutes, intending to cut off the governor's dog's head to claim credit. Maybe these people will be in vain, After all, there are "comrades" in the Governor's Mansion.

No one in the world can understand Kun.

Therefore, Fuzhou Station is actually not a very energy-intensive place to go.On the contrary, Fuzhou Station, where all work is on the right track, is actually suitable for newcomers like Wen Guangjun to get in touch with the "new society" and understand the situation.

At the same time, the General Administration transferred the original traverser station master to work in the northern region where the situation was more complicated.This is really a good thing for the intelligence system with a shortage of manpower.

Wen Guangjun, who took office in a hurry, has spent a total of 4 months in Fuzhou as of today, and he has just stepped on the ground.Then suddenly I was notified that there was a reception job: Nan Wang Nan Station Master was passing by as a guest.

Wen Guangjun is no stranger to reception work.In his previous life, he also received visitors from his brother unit.While arranging board and lodging, they also need to assist others in handling cases, catching a fugitive or something.

According to past experience, the process of receiving colleagues in the 17th century should be similar.But this time it's a little different: stationmaster Wen seems ordinary, but he actually takes this matter more seriously.

The reason is that Mr. Wen's clothing is expensive now, so he naturally doesn't need to worry about the guests' board and lodging.What interested Mr. Wen was that Nanwang was the first indigenous elite he met at the same level.

For a long time, time travelers, especially "quick" time travelers like Wen Guangjun, have more or less experienced an adaptation process of dislocation of identity.

From a dick to a master, from a social animal to a boss, from an ordinary person to a prophet of salvation who knows both astronomy and geography.While feeling the awe of the natives, many travelers need to confirm repeatedly so that they will not lose their position.

It took Wen Guangjun a long time to get used to this sense of dislocation in identity.

However, this visit from Nanwang made Wen Guangjun's mentality of finding his position with great difficulty before a bit confusing - at least on the bright side, for most of the aborigines who couldn't figure out the situation, the two sides were equal.

So Wen Guangjun is actually very interested in Nanwang.He hoped to take the opportunity to communicate with Nanwang and adapt himself to dealing with the indigenous elite.

Although the travel time was not long, Wen Guangjun knew in his heart that with such a pitiful number of travellers, in the end, most of the positions in the New World would be filled by indigenous elites.Not only do I have to adapt to being a master, but I also have to learn to adapt to this new change.

However, in the face of Wen Guangjun who is very interested, Nan Wang, one of the protagonists this time, has been well-regulated since he got off the carriage.

Nan Wang, who has dealt with traversers from the very beginning, can be regarded as an "old courtier".So Nan Wang is very aware of everyone's internal identity gap, and he is like a bright mirror in his heart.

This leads to his coping plan today.

From the bottom of his heart, Nan Wang didn't think he could be equal to Chuan Guiping.He also knew that behind the gentle and knowledgeable faces of these people, there was a huge mysterious power and some kind of inseparable internal connection, which was not something that "Xin Jin" like him could casually build up.

And the most important point: Nanwang knew nothing about Wen Guangjun who was airborne in Fuzhou, and he didn't know his background faction at all.This is the most important point. If you don't know the details of the other party, don't stretch out an olive branch. After all, there are also gangs of many sizes in Transcendent.

So as soon as he met today, he put up all his energy to deal with the latter, inwardly it was the way a subordinate would deal with a boss.

Afterwards, Station Master Wen, who felt that the atmosphere of the meeting was not quite right, still had lunch with the guests according to the etiquette.And when Wen Guangjun finally found out that the Nan stationmaster, who had never been masked before, was indeed deliberately "reserved", he completely lost the desire to communicate.

The reception activities that followed were lackluster as far as the naked eye could see.After the banquet, Master Wen casually assigned a certain subordinate to be in charge of receiving the guests.And he himself, Chuangui lost his temper, slapped his ass and left.

For such an ending, Nan Wang was not surprised.

He has long seen that, working under the hands of Transmigration, as long as things are done well, there is a high probability that a proper result will be obtained.You don't need to worry about the backstabbing from your superiors and subordinates at any time like in Daming.

Having said that, this kind of internal atmosphere with low internal friction usually appears in the emerging group OR new regime for a period of time.

The new group has no historical burden, and the interior is like the rising sun.In addition, there are enough vacancies waiting, so the new group is usually high-spirited, cooperates with each other, and goes all out to the outside world, and factional strife will be minimized.

——————————————————————————————————————

Since it was not very pleasant to flirt with the local boss, the Nanwang team was naturally embarrassed to stay in Fuzhou for a long time, so it didn't have to be annoying.

So at noon the next day, after the delivery of the goods, the Dongguang Fu, which was loaded with some Fujian native products, hurried away.

All the way along the coastline to continue northward, during the period also anchored in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province to avoid the storm for a few days.In the end, when the watchman on the mast of Dongguangfu saw Dagang in the distance, it was already the middle of March when spring blossomed.

Great Shanghai has arrived.

Zhangsutan Port, a private port of salt traders hidden in the tidal flats in the past.Today, the dilapidated small fishing port has already become the leading large comprehensive port in East Asia in the 17th century.

When there is still a long distance from Zhangsu Beach, travelers who come here for the first time will see a thin white line on the coast—the seawall.

This is a solid seawall built with white stones, extending as far as the eye can see, I don't know how long it is.

In the chaotic Little Ice Age of the 17th century, this sea wall firmly protected the surrounding areas of Shanghai from the intrusion of tides and salt water, which is a great achievement.

Standing at the bow of the boat looking south, his face was filled with elation and emotion at this moment, and he was no longer the same as when he was in Fuzhou that day.

Zhou Yi on the side can understand Nan Wang's emotions.He knew that Nan Wang was from Hangzhou, not far from Shanghai.

In addition, as far as Zhou Yi knew: Nan Wang had been active in the Jiangnan area all year round before he was the chief of the seventh department.In other words, Shanghai must be the base camp of Nanwang, with deep personal connections.

as predicted.

Nan Wang and his group stepped into the headquarters of Shanghai Station, and Mr. Xiong Daoxiong, who was the station master at the time, greeted him with a big smile.While shaking hands vigorously, Xiong Dao shook his head and said, "Okay, you've made it through, and you're promoted, Station Master Nan!"

"Ashamed, ashamed, stationmaster Xiong. I belong to the villain Xin Jin, don't make fun of me!"

Seeing Master Nan and Xiong Dao's straightforward communication, and recalling his cautiousness in Fuzhou, Zhou Yi immediately verified his earlier guess.

In fact, if there is a need to assign factions, Nan Wang undoubtedly belongs to the "Jiangnan Faction".

Since the opening of Shanghai Port, Nanwang has been transferred back to the Jiangnan region, and his working relationship at that time was at the Shanghai station.

In the following two or three years, Nan Wang used his familiarity with the gentry class of the Ming Dynasty, as well as his advantages as an indigenous "cultural person" and high-end espionage skills to assist Xiong Dao and other traversers to open up the situation in the Jiangnan area. At that time, he played an indelible role and made many contributions.

This is also the reason why all the traversers of the "Jiangnan Department" regard Nan Wang as their own.

In fact, including Nan Wang's promotion, there are hidden recommendations and support behind it from the "Jiangnan Department" Xiong Dao, Lu Cheng and other leaders.

So, when he arrived in Greater Shanghai, Nanwang would be considered to have truly entered his own territory.

Next is the real clean up.

The headquarters compound of Shanghai Railway Station is located in Zhangsu Port, backed by the bustling Shanghai Beach, and has everything that should be supplied.

Nanwang and his group had arrived at their own territory this time. All the team members on the Dongguangfu disembarked, and in the name of an undercover seminar, they collectively built a team with public funds and ate and drank hard for three days.

After that, everyone lived in a high-end hotel.In the end, when he patted his ass and left, he also received a high-end souvenir and a big red envelope (conference subsidy) in his hand, and he took a handful of imperialist wool.

Four days later, the Nanwang team, reeking of alcohol and with golden wind in their sleeves, bid farewell to the old leader who came to see him off, left Zhangsugang, and rushed headlong into the mighty Yangtze River against the strong north wind.

But this time, the Dongguangfu was not a single ship entering the Yangtze River.Lined up in front of and behind the Dongguangfu is a team of as many as ten civilian merchant ships.

In order to deceive the public, Dong Guangfu hoisted the flag of a trading company affiliated to Shanghai Railway Station.

The fleet traveled all the way up the river, passed through Nantong, crossed Jiangyin, and crossed Zhenjiang. The follow-up impact of the bombardment of Shanghai by Marshal Cao's giant ship back then is still slowly exerting its effect today.Although there were many criticisms from the Ming government along the way, the water bandits in the Yangtze River waterway were still wiped out by the "enthusiastic and courageous masses" in recent years.

After traveling smoothly all the way, after five days, the Dong Guang Fu came to the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, under the city of Nanjing.
