Chapter 194 Additional terms

Tan Xiaopei's passion and equally passionate language moved Ye Tao. For the first time, he knelt down very actively, although only on one knee. He lowered his head and said sincerely: "As you wish."

Tan Xiaopei's face showed a gratitude and satisfaction. He looked at Tan Weixin, who looked helpless with his lips curled up at the corner of his mouth, reached out and pressed Ye Tao's shoulder, laughed and turned around and left the living room, stepped across the courtyard, boarded the carriage, and returned to the palace.

But the two princes were leisurely leaning on the soft chair next to them. Tan Weiran pretended to be humble and clasped his fists to Ye Tao and said, "Brother-in-law, I will be your subordinate in the future. You should take care of me more."

Ye Tao took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and said in a calm tone as possible: "I dare not say take care of you. After all, there are too many things to do in Yunzhou. If you really take Jing Yunqi, it is also a place to burn money. I guess we will have a headache."

Tan Weiran grinned and said, "Brother-in-law, you are really easy to talk to. The father was waiting for you to make the conditions, but he didn't expect you to agree so easily, and he agreed to it all. I told my father that you will agree soon, because you and your sister are the same people, and they are all the people who are indifferent but who are crazy, but once you get impulsive, they will be crazy than anyone else. But I really got it." Tan Weiran suddenly turned around, spread his hands at Tan Weiming, and said, "Come on, dear Prince, come on the bet."

Tan Weiming took out a jade pendant from his arms with a wry smile and stuffed it into Tan Weiran's hand. He looked at Ye Tao, then looked at Tan Weixin with a joking look on his face, shook his head, and said, "Brother-in-law, my brother's ability to figure out people can be regarded as your true teachings."

Ye Tao's face was a little longer because of depression. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "You two brothers are still playing this game?"

Tan Weiming scratched his head and said, "It's often, this jade pendant has been going on like this for many years. We almost forgot where this thing came from."

Tan Weixin sighed, "Weiming, I've thought about it, but I still want to ask clearly. Did you come up with the whole idea?"

"What's the idea?" Ye Tao asked, "Let me be the General Strategy of Yunzhou?"

Tan Weiming smiled mysteriously and said, "Yes. My father and I said, since we, father and son, believe that you will be a suitable Yunzhou Military Advisor, then make sure this appointment is determined. The father trusts you. I will trust you in the future...but, I am not like the father, and it is expected that it will take fifty years, sixty years or even longer to unify the countries. I hope that in twenty to twenty-five years, I can see that day. Especially in this way, the father can see this day with his own eyes. For this goal, I think it is not harmful to take a small risk. Besides, I don't think that brother-in-law, you are a risky person in Yunzhou Military Advisor."

Tan Weixin sneered: "I really know how to avoid the important things. What I asked about is the additional terms."

Tan Weiming smiled concealedly and said, "It's not a big deal."

Ye Tao said strangely: "Additional terms? What additional terms."

Tan Weixin snorted unhappily. Seeing that her sister seemed to be angry, Tan Weiming and Tan Weiran hurriedly said goodbye and left.

"Additional terms? What are the additional terms?" Ye Tao had no choice but to chase after Tan Weixin.

Tan Weixin shook her head and frowned and said, "Anyway, you will know in a few days. It's not a bad thing for you... The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. You Spider-Man don't want to accept Christine Dunst, but there's nothing they can do if they want to deliver the goods to their door."

Ye Tao was stunned. He thought for a while and asked, "Want to marry a girl from the Dai family? Who?"

Wow—A pillow hit Ye Tao’s face, probably to punish him for his reaction at the first time, not to say “no” but to start thinking about the candidate directly.

Tan Weixin started to have a quarrel? It was just a strange reaction under complex psychology. And when Ye Tao thought hard but couldn't figure out where the Dai family was going to create a girl of the right age who must be very close to the core characters of the Dai family, and began to use various methods to indirectly attack, Tan Weixin deliberately did not say it or was always "interrupted" by various sudden affairs at critical moments, and it became a very good entertainment.

Ye Tao naturally didn't have much time to think about this problem, and he couldn't even find someone to refuse it. Because so far, neither Tan Xiaopei, Tan Weiming, Tan Weiran, nor Dai Shining, the leader of the Dai clan, have ever told anyone that this is the case on any occasion. It seems quite stupid to ask this question rashly. What's more, Ye Tao has to implement the initial team of the Yunzhou General Administration in just a few days before leaving for Yunzhou to take office.

There is no need to mention Feng Zi. Now he is the chief aide of Ye Tao. Such a status is probably a little higher than his father Qu Yan. Ye Tao, who is very clear and understands Feng Zi's lazy personality, is also happy to have such a friend-like aide around him. He can come up with ideas at all times. What's more, Feng Zi is still a doctor who lacks practical experience but is still very qualified.

Liu Qing has worked with Ye Tao for quite a long time. Now Liu Qing's work has far exceeded the scope of contact with Qihai Trading Company. Due to Feng Zi's laziness, Liu Qing actually became Ye Tao's secretariat. This time, after Ye Tao obtained Liu Qing's consent, he determined his position and awarded him the title of Yunzhou Jingluofu Dianshu. Qihai Trading Company needed to send another liaison officer to Ye Tao.

Then came Suo Zheng. Even though the blood Qi army general Zou Shuangwen repeatedly tried to keep him, both Suo Zheng himself, many officers in the blood Qi army and the Dongping Ministry of War had to admit that people like Suo Zheng would play a greater role in the blood Qi army when they went to Yunzhou than in the blood Qi army. The current blood Qi army no longer relies on Suo Zheng in logistics management, but a whole team running at high speed. Yunzhou needs someone like Suo Zheng who has rich experience in logistics management, equipment management and ordnance production and maintenance. If Yunzhou can enable the army to quickly form combat effectiveness and catch up with the battle field in Bei Liao in a few years, then Suo Zheng, who will definitely show some performance at that time, may become the first military soldier in history to enter the general class of logistics. It is impossible to have greater temptation and higher pursuits than this.

When General Xu Jingtian left office, the team of half of Dongping officials and half of Yunzhou locals was still in operation, and many of them could be used. However, Ye Tao was not familiar with those people at all and needed time to understand them. After all, there were so many things in his position as Luqiao Department that he really had no time to take care of. Since Yunzhou's future affairs will inevitably become more and more complicated, Tan Xiaopei also agreed to send a group of students from the Imperial College and Imperial College to Yunzhou every year, or not.

A talented young man who was a senior official went to Yunzhou to ask Ye Tao to train and appointment. Of course, if he failed, he would have to return the goods. There were quite a few talents in Yunzhou that could be used. Ye Tao had no psychological barriers to using the Dai family's children. He wanted those Dai family children who had always been known for their ability and diligence to help him share some things. At the same time, Ye Tao also wanted to select some people from the tribes of Yunzhou and work in Yunzhou's General Administration and different institutions he belonged to.

After solving the human problem, he still asked Tan Xiaopei to clarify some arrangements. In the next three years, Dongping will provide Yunzhou Jinglifu with a basic fund of 2 million taels every year. This part of the funds can be used to do anything, and can purchase supplies and hire manpower in the borders of Dongping. In fact, many of these expenses are transferred to the Leiyin Demon Sect through Ye Tao to deal with the expenses of the expanding Leiyin Demon Sect. Due to the complicated affairs of Yunzhou, Tan Weixin will train a team to handle the operations of the inner government within the next year. Now the commercial affairs of the inner government are so complicated that it is absolutely not something that one person can manage. However, Tan Weixin, who is in it, can simplify the complex through various methods, and finally let herself simply point out the direction for her management team. This situation makes Tan Xiaopei feel that she seems to be able to try it.

Subsequently, Ye Tao and Tan Weixin convened some members of Qihai Trading Company and Jiuzhou Trading Company, and told them that they would carry out a series of developments in Yunzhou, hoping that they could actively invest in various commercial activities in Yunzhou. Tan Weixin promised projects and profits to all the first batch of merchants who followed up with Yunzhou for bulk investment. In terms of business, Tan Weixin's commitment is more effective than anything else for these merchants.

In addition, there are some small issues that need to be clarified, such as the large amount of trade that Yunzhou will conduct in the future, whether it can sell arms, whether it can sell horses to Xiling and Chunnan, and how to deal with domestic procurement, etc.

So many things to do and so many problems to deal with, Ye Tao and Tan Weixin were really busy, and Tan Xiaopei also regretted it. If he had known, he would not have written in the appointment letter that he would have left Danyang to take office within ten days. This was obviously not a pleasure for himself.

In addition to these, the old general also made another suggestion, which was to build a city that was rich and magnificent enough in Yunzhou. From the layout and military security of Yunzhou, Yunzhou had obvious situations of heavy weight in the west and light in the east, Suiyuan City, Ningyuan City, Thunder Cliff... and even most small and medium-sized towns were west of the middle line of Yunzhou. The side facing the North Liao in the east was obviously too empty. From a military perspective, there was a fortress that could accommodate enough troops to adjust the center of defense of Yunzhou. Only

In this way, in the future, the army of Yunzhou will have a better starting position and a more secure supply line. In terms of economy and population, since the northern nomadic peoples have almost blind worship and awe of those rich buildings, a magnificent city closer to the north will help stabilize Dongping's rule in the Yunzhou tribe and other northern tribes, and will also help attract more people to settle east of the Yunzhou middle line, making the side facing the Northern Liao look more full.
