Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 481 advance step by step
"Sister Peacock!" Wu Mei enthusiastically won the peacock when she saw the peacock, and took the peacock to meet the wind and wash away the dust.

Wu Mei works under Peacock and has received a lot of training from Peacock, so she has a good relationship.

And Peacock watched Wu Mei's growth all the way, more or less a bit like watching his trumpet grow all the way.

Especially because of her status as a daughter of the Wu Mei family, Peacock can be sure that Wu Mei's upper limit is definitely higher than her own, and Peacock has actually felt the limitations brought about by this identity.

But Peacock looked at Wu Mei, and his heart was only slightly gloomy, and he quickly discarded these negative emotions.

After all, after following King Wei for so long, Peacock's vision has gradually broadened.

From resenting the family for giving himself to King Wei like a gift, then to reconciling with the family, and now the resources and energy that I can manage by myself have far exceeded that of the Zheng family in Chang'an...

It seems that from a higher perspective, the conflict with the family at the beginning seems to be nothing. In comparison, what I have to do now is to seek the country.

Even though he was only a small part of King Wei's plan, for Peacock, the fact that he, as a woman, was entrusted with such a heavy responsibility by King Wei also made Peacock gradually understand the feeling of those men saying that the so-called scholars die for their confidants .

At this time, the two were riding on horses, and Peacock noticed that gorgeously dressed young masters appeared beside him from time to time, and all these young masters were more or less handsome, and their eyes even looked at Wu Mei from time to time.

Peacock's gaze turned, and he teased Wu Mei, "Those gentlemen came to look for you, your demeanor is indeed charming!"

Wu Mei heard the peacock's words, followed the peacock's eyes to look over, sighed helplessly and said,
"Since the prince's rebellion was suppressed, more men have come to approach me."

"Is there anything exciting, my sister will give you an advice!" Peacock couldn't help saying when he heard Wu Mei's words.

"They all just want to use me to climb up to King Wei, how can anyone really put me in their eyes!" Wu Mei sighed.

"Sister, you have to choose one as soon as possible, otherwise, if you work with King Wei for a long time, you may not be able to get married!" Peacock heard Wu Mei's words, but persuaded Wu Mei.

"Why don't you marry Wei Wang like your sister?" Wu Mei rolled her eyes and said against Peacock.

"I'm not convinced!" Peacock shook his head and said in a low voice, "The King of Wei will not accept me."

"Huh?" Wu Mei couldn't help being stunned when she heard Peacock's words, and quickly said, "Sister is just ahead."

Seeing that Wu Mei changed the subject, Peacock smiled calmly and said, "I'm fine, but don't think about what King Wei said.

If the king of Wei really wanted to take you in, he would have kept you by his side like a white crane, instead of letting you out.

In the words of King Wei, if you become his pillow, you will be reluctant to use him to death! "

"Wei Wang, you are really welcome!" Wu Mei couldn't help sticking out her tongue when she heard Peacock's words.

However, Peacock understood that what King Wei really meant was that he didn't want the relationship between men and women to interfere with his work.

So my own dowry has always been left to me to take care of. At the beginning of the bet between me and the Zheng family, I more or less really hoped to lose it all, and then let the king of Wei support me.

But the reality is that the Zheng family is too unreliable, and at the same time, some of the losses have been compensated by King Wei.

On the contrary, I can't express my thoughts of relying on it, and then I can only repay it with work.

But the king of Wei really used the tool man to death. A beautiful woman like herself, who was nominally the maid of the king of Wei, was dispatched to Longzhou or Luoyang in the end, and now she has to sit in Youzhou, Peacock said. King Wei is really not a normal person.

"If you want to be the king of Wei's pillow, give up your rights, follow the orthodox draft route, and enter the palace of the king of Wei.

If you want to hold power by yourself and be a woman who is not inferior to a man, then you must not have any special relationship with Wei Wang.

In this way, the king of Wei will reuse you instead. After all, the king of Wei is one of the few people who does not shy away from using women! "

Peacock taught Wu Mei his own experience, pinched Wu Mei's face and said,

"So if you have someone you like in Luoyang, get married early.

Otherwise, in a few years, if King Wei entrusts you with a heavy responsibility, you may not have time to think about it.

In a few years, she will become an old woman, and it will be a pity to have such a charming face! "

"If we women get married, how can we still hold power!"

Wu Mei thought for a while after hearing Peacock's words, and finally shook her head helplessly and said,
"Sometimes people may not be able to trust even their blood relatives, and the only person they can trust is themselves.

How could I give up so easily when I finally had the opportunity to gain authority!
Especially the situation in my family, as you know, if I lose the protection of King Wei, people from the Wu family will come to find me immediately.

I don't want to live a life of being dependent on others! "

Peacock couldn't help but sighed when he heard Wu Mei's words, but he didn't try to persuade Wu Mei any more, after all, the Wu family and the Yang family really had a lot of bad things going on.

Compared with the Zheng family in Chang'an where I belong, Wu Mei and others have suffered much more from the oppression and blows than myself.

So after Wu Mei had the power, it made sense for her to choose to die and not let go.

"Forget it, since you have made such a decision, then I won't say anything more!"

Peacock shook his head, King Wei left his dowry, so that he could find a good husband by himself.

But he was taken in by the king of Wei when he was at a low point, and he was bestowed by the king of Wei when he was at his peak.

In addition, in terms of seniority, I am second only to Ma Zhou, watching Wei Wang step by step from the downcast prince who founded the mansion to the present Wei Wang, how can I think of other people.

And King Wei's character is so awkward, power and the woman who is King Wei can only choose one, so what can I do!
Although the king of Wei looked very tasty, he had no authority, he just chose one, and he was a little bit unwilling to choose the other who had no choice.

Therefore, Peacock only hopes that Wu Mei will not follow her old path.

Since Wu Mei doesn't listen, then it's fine for Wu Mei to recruit a son-in-law herself in the future, but thinking about it, Wu Mei doesn't need to inherit the lintel of the Wu family, so just recruit a face-to-face to solve her physical problems.

Working under King Wei only depends on your ability, at least Peacock is very optimistic about Wu Mei.

After all, ability can grow, but Wu Mei is a monster who can work ten hours a day and sleep for two hours, full of energy!
"This time, King Wei's order is to use Luoyang's chamber of commerce to raise food, corn, and various warm-keeping products, and send them to Youzhou!"

Peacock looked at Wu Mei and said, "I'll stay in Luoyang for a few days, and I'll set off immediately after confirming my intention to purchase food!"

"How much?" Wu Mei couldn't help but look a bit solemn when she heard Peacock's words.

"10 people can use it for one year, and the corn is purchased independently!" Peacock said solemnly to Wu Mei.

"10 people!?" Wu Mei couldn't help being stunned when she heard the number, and her expression became serious, "Is there going to be a war in the north?"

"I don't know!" Hearing Wu Mei's words, Peacock shook his head and said,

"Whether to fight or not is the decision of the king of Wei or even the sage.

We just made the arrangements for King Wei in advance, as for other excessive arrangements, there is no need. "

Wu Mei pursed her lips and nodded, "I will send these supplies over one after another. Is three months enough?"

"You don't need to rush so fast, just slowly raise supplies and finish it before next summer's harvest!" Peacock said,
"Make it as concealed as possible. It is unknown whether a war will break out. It would be bad if it caused panic."

Peacock is a businessman, so he is very clear that the purchase of grain in one season and the purchase of grain in one year have almost completely different impacts on the fluctuations of the entire market.

Wei Wang obviously didn't want to make this matter a big deal, if he made it known to everyone when he was purchasing grain.

Therefore, this matter naturally has to be handled beautifully.

"I understand!" Hearing this, Wu Mei also understood that this matter should be as calm as possible.

But I have to say that Wu Mei's work efficiency is still quite high. Basically, after ordering today, Wu Mei immediately went to several grain merchants in the Chamber of Commerce who were responsible for supplying grain the next day.

After signing the contract and paying the deposit, they have to raise a sum of grain every month to transport it to the Luoyang warehouse.

As for the fact that the food arrived in Luoyang and then sent to Youzhou, it was naturally Wu Mei's full responsibility.

At the same time, after distributing all the details of these grain supplies, Wu Mei even contacted Guangzhou. Because Wu Mei came from an agricultural school, she knew that there were two harvests in Guangzhou, so she placed an additional order for [-]% of the grain. as an additional reserve.

Wu Mei is not afraid of the problem of too much food harvest, because it is only these three layers of food, it is impossible for Wu Mei to lose money.

After all, Li Tai has established a chamber of commerce and a futures market in Luoyang. Where there is a need to buy grain and where to sell grain, such a large amount of grain transactions cannot be hidden from Wu Mei at all.

And borrowing news to make money can make it easy for Wu Mei to find her next home, loss?
Ever since Wu Mei really took over the futures market, she really hasn't seen the dealer lose money.

What Wu Mei knew was that in this way, it was very necessary to insure herself.

This is working for the king of Wei, and it involves major national affairs, so it is impossible for him to stick to the scale too rigidly.

After all, I really want to grasp this authority. If I let King Wei down because of this matter, and thus lose this corresponding authority, for Wu Mei, this kind of life is really worse than death.

But Peacock was very satisfied with Wu Mei's efficiency. After confirming that Wu Mei had started to do this, Peacock continued to follow the canal all the way north to Youzhou, and immediately found the current governor of Youzhou, Li Chunfeng.

It can be said that Li Chunfeng took root in Youzhou after being fooled by Li Tai to go to Youzhou.

And Li Chunfeng also walked step by step to the position of the governor of Youzhou from the fifth rank, and was in charge of the government affairs related to Youzhou.

To be honest, with Li Chunfeng's ability and the support of Youzhou Agricultural University, basically as long as it involves specific tasks, Li Chunfeng can complete it very well.

Although Li Chunfeng has more or less the stubbornness of a science student, with the help of students from the agricultural college, even if he encounters the south wall, in most cases, the south wall is knocked open by Li Chunfeng.

The peacock came to visit Li Chunfeng, and was soon invited to the main hall by Li Chunfeng. Li Chunfeng looked at the peacock and said:

"I haven't seen the peacock lady for a long time. I don't know if I came to Youzhou this time, but what is the king of Wei's order?"

"The king of Wei intends to further promote the transaction of corn with Goguryeo, sell it to Goguryeo at a low price, increase the purchase of Goguryeo's specialties, and save money for heating supplies at the same time!" Peacock looked at Li Chunfeng and said,
"So I also ask Li Changshi to give me a certain discount in terms of transactions, and it is best to allow me a wasteland to build a warehouse!"

Hearing this, Li Chunfeng couldn't help stroking his beard, and said with a serious expression, "Is King Wei planning to attack Goguryeo?"

Li Chunfeng is someone who knows Li Tai's plan, and Li Tai's plan here also needs Li Chunfeng's hub to start.

So when he heard what the peacock said, Li Chunfeng quickly reacted.Li Tai is ready to attack Goguryeo.

"It's not clear yet, King Wei didn't give me any definite information, he just asked me to prepare these supplies first!"

Peacock said cautiously, "That's exactly the case, King Wei told me to be careful in my actions, so as not to cause too much disturbance."

"I see!" Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "I will let the students from the agricultural school cooperate with you in your work!"

"So, thank you Mr. Li!" Peacock couldn't help but salute when he heard Li Chunfeng's words.

But Li Chunfeng murmured, "King Wei's strategic vision has never been wrong. Since he has made such preparations, there is a great possibility that he will attack Goguryeo in the future. I should also be prepared!"

Soon, Li Chunfeng ordered to expand the storage of dried salted fish and salt.

Someone asked, but Li Chunfeng didn't hide anything. He said that King Wei personally built the Chidao from Luoyang to Chang'an. The demand output will inevitably increase significantly, so I need to increase output to plan ahead.

At the same time, Li Chunfeng wrote to Li Dejian, saying that the Youzhou fishing boats would expand the fishing range, and hoped that Li Dejian would lead the navy to clean up the islands around the Bohai Sea, so that these pirates would go farther away.

Li Dejian thought that being idle is also idle, so he led the fleet to sweep the surrounding pirates, completely unaware that Li Chunfeng was clearing obstacles for future material transportation.

And just when Li Chunfeng began to gradually change the overall rhythm of Youzhou by relying on his connections accumulated over the past ten years, Xiang Lixuan came to Goguryeo with Li Shimin's imperial decree and ordered Yuan Gai Suwen to let Goguryeo retreat.

However, it was obvious that Yuan Gai Suwen would definitely not agree.

　It's updated today, so don't wait any longer.
