Chapter 463
The appearance of Zhang Jian and what he said to Shen Yi seemed ordinary, but it implicitly expressed Ganquan Academy's attitude towards Shen Yi and the position they gave Shen Yi.

That is the person who carries the beam.

Shen Yi has just been a Jinshi for one year, and has been promoted several levels in a row. The potential of this new star in the officialdom is almost visible to the naked eye.

What's more, the current Shen Yi is following the Xindi vigorously in the project of the coastal defense force. This project also has unlimited potential. If it is handled properly, there is a chance to overthrow the Zhao Clan who has been entrenched in the Huaihe River for 60 years.

Being able to participate in and lead a project of this scale, Shen Yi can naturally be regarded as the leader of the younger generation of Ganquan Academy. People can match, even the Ganquan Seventh Sons who were the seniors of Ganquan Academy who were awarded Jinshi early, there are few people who can compare with Shen Yi.

Of course, there is one thing that must be made clear.

Zhang Jian's words, although the weight is not light, but what he said is relatively "obscure".

This kind of cryptic rhetoric is another common expression in the officialdom. It is often seen in the conversation between the boss and his subordinates. When leaders make promises to their subordinates, they often say some cloudy words and let the subordinates take care of themselves. .

If you understand it, it means that the leadership is unpredictable.

And once something goes wrong in any link of the subordinate, this kind of cloud mountain and fog will not have any meaning.

In other words, this can be understood as an advanced way of drawing cakes.

It is not only a cake, but also no need to be responsible.

Shen Yi understands this kind of routine. After all, he was a boss in his previous life, and he has also been a leader in the newspaper department for a period of time in this life. He can't hide this kind of thing from him.

At the same time, Shen Yi knew very well what position he would have in Ganquan Academy in the future, and whether he would become the leader of the entire Ganquan Academy. Anyone's promises were useless, and he could only rely on himself.

At the gate of the city, after having a conversation with Zhang Jian, because it was getting late, Shen Yi bid farewell to Zhang Jian, then jumped into the carriage and set off together.

Along the way, Shen Yi encountered a lot of troubles.

Because leading two hundred craftsmen is completely different from leading two hundred soldiers.

If there are two hundred soldiers, these soldiers will basically set up tents. If they can't touch a town, they can camp in the wild.

And these craftsmen basically don't have much experience in wild survival, and they can't order and prohibit them like soldiers, so it's a bit troublesome to manage.

Sometimes just after noon, you have to start looking for inns, and you don't have the ability to camp in the wild, so
Moreover, some craftsmen whose families are all in Jiankang don't want to go south with Shen Yi at all in their hearts. Therefore, sometimes after walking for a day or two, they say that they have a headache and stomach pain.

The eunuchs in the palace who came over to take care of these craftsmen jumped up and pointed at these craftsmen's noses, saying that after they returned to Jiankang, they would have good fruits to eat.

Shen Yi, on the other hand, was much calmer.

After all, most of the craftsmen followed the south honestly and did not give up.

Moreover, Shen Yi was born as a civil servant, so he was more patient than a military officer, so he managed to adjust the conflicts among these craftsmen, and offered them a [-]% salary.

Thank you craftsman, although he was working for the imperial court, his original income was not particularly high, and sometimes he was deducted by eunuchs in charge of the military bureau and officials of the Ministry of war. When Shen Yi clearly added money to them, most of the troublemakers Craftsmen, they all calm down.

Because everyone was in a carriage, the speed of travel could not be too fast. It took a total of nearly ten days from Jiankang to Yongjia, the capital city of Wenzhou.

Ten days later, it was mid-August of Hongde's eighth year.

Nearly fifty carriages were approaching the Yongjia city.

At this time, under the city of Yongjia, Li Mu, the son of the Jin Dynasty, and a group of officials from the Wenzhou government and a group of generals from the Anti-Japanese Army were waiting to welcome Shen Yi and his party.

At this moment, Shen Yi's carriage was at the forefront. When there were dozens of steps away from the Wenzhou capital city, Shen Yi signaled for the carriage to stop, and let the nearly two hundred craftsmen in the carriage get off the carriage one after another.

Shen Yi jumped out of the carriage first, and strode towards Li Mu. When he was still about ten steps away from Li Mu, he cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I have seen you."

Li Mu laughed, stepped forward to support Shen Yi's two arms, and said with a smile: "Ziheng is back, you have been here for nearly a month, and I miss you very much for my brother in Wenzhou Mansion."

Shen Yi smiled: "My little brother is also worried about the affairs along the coast. After the matter in the capital was resolved, he hurried back."

After saying this, he turned his head to look at Jiang Youde, the prefect of Wenzhou behind Li Mu, and smiled politely and cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Mr. Jiang Fu."

Prefect Jiang hurriedly bowed his hands to return the salute, with a smile on his face: "Master Shen is very polite."

He looked at Shen Yi, with an expression of envy that he couldn't hide: "Congratulations, Master Shen, who has been promoted to the Ministry of War, and has a bright future."

It is reasonable for him to envy Shen Yi.

He Jiang Youde, like Shen Yi, was also a second-class Jinshi, and he had been an official for more than ten years before he was able to climb to the position of magistrate.

And what about Shen Yi?

He was a Jinshi who was awarded last year!

If the "level difference" between the Shangjing officials and the local officials is calculated, Shen Yi's current head of the sixth-rank military department is already not far behind the fourth-rank magistrate in his place.

In terms of power, it even surpasses it!
This is no longer just an enviable level, Jiang Fuzun's sour teeth are about to shatter in secret!

Different people have different fates!
Shen Yi shook his head modestly.

"I don't dare to do it. This time I was transferred to the Ministry of War. To put it bluntly, the imperial court needed to train troops along the coast. There was no suitable candidate for the assignment, so I was sent here."

He looked at the magistrate Jiang and said with a smile: "As long as Jiang Fuzun cooperates with the anti-Japanese army's training to suppress the Japanese, he will be credited. In the future, if the anti-Japanese army succeeds, the Fuzun may be promoted to the province."

Prefect Jiang waved his hand, not even daring to speak.

Shen Yi turned his head and glanced at the nearly two hundred craftsmen behind him, as well as a dozen or twenty eunuchs sent by the palace to oversee the work, then looked at Jiang Zhifu, and said in a deep voice: "Master Fu, this is the court sent to help build the ship. The craftsmen who make firearms are very precious, and I asked the governor to arrange a temporary residence for them, and then move there after the imperial envoys build a house for them in a few days."

Jiang Youde glanced at Li Mu cautiously, seeing Li Mu smiling and saying nothing, he nodded quickly and said: "Master Shen, don't worry, the government will make arrangements."

After Shen Yi briefly explained a few words to the magistrate, he also spoke to several government adjutants and the magistrate of Yongjia County, and stopped communicating with other local officials.

After all, his grade is placed here, there is no need to put his attitude too low.

After talking with the magistrate, he turned his eyes to a group of generals of the Anti-Japanese Army, and the leaders were naturally Ling Su and Xue Wei.

Seeing Shen Yi's gaze, both Ling Su and Xue Wei stepped forward, and saluted Shen Yi respectfully.

"I have met Master Shen."

"Meet Si Zheng!"

The one who called Si Zheng was naturally not very "sensible" Xue Wei.

Ling Su coughed and tried to correct Xue Wei.

Shen Yi naturally didn't care about these things. He hadn't seen them for a month, and he also saluted the two of them, and then asked about the recent situation of the Anti-Japanese Army.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Mu held Shen Yi's arm and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's going to be dark after all, and the prefect Jiang prepared a banquet for you, Ziheng, in the city. Go to the banquet."

Standing beside Li Mu, Jiang Youde echoed again and again.

Shen Yi glanced at Li Mu, then lowered his eyebrows and said: "Your Majesty, there are two eunuchs in charge of the palace accompanying these craftsmen, do you want to invite them to dinner together?"

Hearing these words, Li Mu frowned subconsciously, with an unconcealable disgust on his face.

Shen Yi also knew that he was not very willing to sit with the eunuch, so he said helplessly: "The servants in the palace are sent by the Ministry, so don't neglect them, otherwise my next errand will be difficult to handle."

Li Mu could only say "hmm", and said flatly: "Since it's the emperor's envoy, let's invite them together."

Shen Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Then there is nothing else to do. Later, I will find another restaurant in Fucheng, and invite these artisans from the Military Bureau and the Ministry of Industry to have a good meal."

Li Mu's tone was a little surprised, and he said with a smile: "Ziheng seems to value these craftsmen very much."

Master Shen turned his head and pointed at these craftsmen, and smiled.

"Maybe in the future, winning and defeating the enemy will all depend on them."
