Half a stick of incense, Wei Fufeng turned his head and said, "Your county magistrate has a place."

"Brother-in-law, thank you brother-in-law." Han Baoshan bowed excitedly and thanked.

Wei Fufeng warned: "Don't call your brother-in-law outside, and you should not be proud. If you serve as a county magistrate, you will not be able to do it for a long time."

Han Baoshan smiled and said with apologies: "Don't worry, sir, I will never harm the good people. At most, I will charge some protection fees. That is a common rule. I cannot break the industry rules."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "I asked my eldest brother to be transferred to the judge of the Jiedushi, and I was responsible for the taxes and taxes in Zhengzhou. Of course, it was just the taxes and taxes related to the Jiedushi, and I could not compete with the governor for governance power."

Han Baoshan was stunned and said, "Sir, I'm afraid the errand you gave to my elder brother is not easy to do."

Wei Fufeng whispered: "You are afraid that the six Caos will join the army, so you should treat them as decorations."

Han Baoshan nodded and said, "The most difficult thing for officials who want money is."

Wei Fufeng smiled and said whispered: "The king gave me the right to ask the assistant to be appointed and removed. If the assistant to Zhengzhou is a lie, I will make him lose his official position."

Han Baoshan opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "Sir, can appoint and remove the Zhengzhou assistant officer."

Wei Fufeng whispered: "We need to ask the king, I cannot change the assistant officials in Zhengzhou. We are the best. As a subordinate, you must have the awareness of the subordinate and become my local snake."

Han Baoshan smiled with his eyebrows and said, "Sir, I know how to be sensible. I will not be stupid. I will be able to provoke hatred."

Wei Fufeng nodded with satisfaction and said, "I asked Zhao Yonghui to replace his eldest brother Si Gong to join the army, and Lord Li Zhen was 80% unwilling to do so."

Han Baoshan was stunned for a moment and whispered: "Mr. Li Zhen cannot be kind to you when he takes his wife's hatred. He is willing to Zhao Yonghui be an official."

Wei Fufeng whispered: "Wait for you to go back and ventilate, teach Zhao Yonghui to face Li Zhen, and he was incredibly surprised and was grateful."

Han Baoshan nodded clearly and whispered: "I think that if Lord Li Zhen doesn't want to use it, don't force it."

Wei Fufeng whispered: "I said I would give Zhao Yonghui a small official. Li Zhen was unwilling to do it. I would also let Zhao Yonghui do a ninth-rank record. You tell Zhao Yonghui."

Han Baoshan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "May I ask about my official position?"

Wei Fufeng replied: "The governor of Xuanyi Army is actually the same as Xie Tong, but he is not as powerful as Xie Tong, and he failed to serve as the governor of Huazhou."

Han Baoshan nodded and bowed and whispered: "Congratulations to you, sir."

Wei Fufeng smiled and whispered: "One of the functions of letting you serve as a county magistrate is to protect business, and I will continue to invest in Zhengzhou business."

Han Baoshan was surprised and nodded.

Wei Fufeng said again: "My business in Zhengzhou will not use power for personal gain to evade taxes, and will also be willing to pay appropriate attention to business rules and management."

Han Baoshan was surprised and wanted to speak but stopped.

Wei Fufeng whispered: "Only by making choices can you last for a long time. In the future, I will also manage the powerful and wealthy people in Bianliang City."

Han Baoshan nodded and smiled: "Adults know businessmen well, and only by willingness can they win."

Wei Fufeng asked: "Do you think the tea fabrics from the south will be sold to Zhengzhou?"

Han Baoshan was stunned and replied: "Of course there is a sales channel, and the profit is very large, but the Huainan army blocked the trade route."

Wei Fufeng nodded, he planned to go downward in both directions.

The Grand Canal goes north, passes through Yangzhou, Chuzhou, Sizhou, Suzhou, Xuzhou, and arrives at Bianzhou.

He traveled all the way to Ezhou, arrived in Xiangzhou through the Han River, turned to the Nanyang Basin, passed through Luyang Pass, and arrived in Luoyang.

For Wei Fufeng, both trade routes have the ability to pass the level.

The Grand Canal uses the Wuning Army and opens up the trade route with orders and rewards, but cannot transport too much goods.

Of course, Wei Fufeng could not operate it himself, but handed it over to Jiangning merchants to operate. He issued a military order to allow passage and exercise the right to the Wuning Army stationed in the north.

In short, there is a trade route that can communicate and transport goods, and Wei Fufeng's strategy to the Central Plains can be based on implementation and gradually usurped the rule of the Xuanyi Army's territory.

The governor of the Xuanyi Army obtained by Wei Fufeng was not without military power, his military power was higher than that of the governor.

What is in charge of the military command? It refers to the recruitment, training, and defense of military commands in local village soldiers.

Zhu Wen often sent 200,000 troops to fight, and the army was basically divided into two categories: one was full-time elite tooth army, and the other was recruited local village soldiers.

For example, Zhu Wen issued a military order.

When Wei Fufeng received the military order, he had to withdraw troops and urge the governor and assistants to raise the military expenses, form the Xuanyi army and lead the commander Zhu Wen to go to war.

When Zhu Wen returned from the war, the local army dispersed and became civilians.

In other words, Zhu Wenfei has maintained 200,000 to 300,000 troops for a long time, and the full-time direct-level army is only 60,000 to 70,000.

The military supplies of local troops and the pensions for war and death are completely attributed to local burdens.

During the process of recruiting the township soldiers, they once became the commander of the governor of the Xuanyi Army. The regiment training guarding the city defense was actually also recruiting the township soldiers, which was called defense.

The governor is the Shangguan of the League Training Group, and the Jiedushi is also the Shangguan of the League Training Group.

The Jiedushi had the right to recruit troops and train, and turned into Xuanyi's army to go to Bianliang.

Therefore, the governor of the Xuanyi Army was superior to the governor in military terms. How to manage local and criminal litigation is the governor's authority.

Wei Fufeng seized Xie Tong's precedent and naturally sought taxes from the Xuanyi army to collect power.

In fact, the only one of the four military governors of Zhu Wen was Li Zhen’s deputy governor of the Tianping Army, Xu Guan, who was not a military official from the beginning.

Li Zhen had no influence on the army, and his family general Li Wu had never been able to obtain real power military officers, and he was just a guard leader.

Wei Fufeng tasted a pot of tea and sent Han Baoshan to leave. He went to the inn alone, only took Zheng Yuechan out shopping together, and integrated into the hustle and bustle life of Bianliang City.

Walking on the street, I feel more relaxed and freehand than when I come here. I go to and from various shops, buy some snacks, fabrics, needlework,...

About an hour passed, and as I was walking, I suddenly came to me with a wooden window frame and a blue canopy. Compared with the vulgar vehicles on the street, I looked outstanding.

Wei Fufeng subconsciously stopped watching and saw the exquisite carriage parked in front of a silver building.

The coachman got off and opened the car door quickly, and walked down a pretty girl wearing pearls and silk dress.

The girl turned around and helped a beautiful woman in a robe dress.

I saw that the beautiful woman's skirt was embroidered with luxurious embroidery, and her high-loving hair bun showed her graceful and noble temperament.

Wei Fufeng reached out and grabbed a passerby, handed him ten copper coins, and asked, "Which family does that noble lady come from?"

Just as the passerby was about to get angry, he saw the copper coins he handed over, and saw Wei Fufeng's extraordinary temperament and did not dare to do it.

Passers-by turned their heads and replied: "That is the wife of Guo, the wife of Lord Jingxiang."

Wei Fufeng was surprised and said, "Mr. Jingxiang's wife actually received a first-class imperial edict."

Passers-by smiled ambiguously: "The Lady of the Kingdom is not a first-class imperial edict, but a woman who once was a king, and the king gave it to Lord Jingxiang."

Wei Fufeng nodded and let go of passers-by. He knew that the two good assistants of Xuanwu Army, Zhu Wen, were the chief secretary Jing Xiang and the judge Pei Di.

The counselor Li Zhen is a newcomer, and there is also a counselor Wei Zhen who is similar to Li Zhen.

......

After midnight, Wei Fufeng returned to Li Zhen's house, and Li Zhen actually returned home early.

As soon as they met, Li Zhen smiled and said, "My dear son became the adopted son of the king and the governor of the Xuanyi Army. He got what he wanted and was proud of his youth."

Wei Fufeng bowed: "The kindness is so great that my subordinates can get what they want. They dare not be proud of their youth. The pressure of meeting the king is too great. Let's go out to relax."

Li Zhen nodded and said, "You should discuss with me in advance when you use someone."

Wei Fufeng replied: "The request after a while may not be satisfactory. I want my benefactor to intervene in Xuanyi's army."

Li Zhen nodded and said, "Zhao Yonghui is not suitable."

Wei Fufeng said: "My benefactor is not satisfied and can substitute people at will. But I promised to give him a small official last night and could not break his promise. Let him do a ninth-rank record. My benefactor personally gave him, and it has nothing to do with me."

Li Zhen frowned, misunderstood as Wang's request, and weighed the pros and cons of it in his heart.

Wei Fufeng asked: "How many days will you get the official documents of the king's appointment?"

Li Zhen replied: "Don't be anxious, there is no news for ten days, I will make another comment."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said goodbye to go to rest.

Li Zhen was alone in the hall, frowning and thinking, Li Yu gave him a sense of indifference to escape from control, and was very uncomfortable.

After a moment, Li Zhen burst into laughter and realized that the times passed, it was a big difference.

Li Yu is now in a prosperous life, and his psychology cannot be regarded as a family general, and they have become equal cooperation with each other.

After figuring it out, Li Zhen felt relieved and walked out and called Zhao Yonghui.

Zhao Yonghui entered the hall and bowed respectfully and called out: "Sir."

Li Zhen sat upright, looked at Zhao Yonghui who was delighted and said, "Have you told me about it?"

Zhao Yonghui raised his eyes and responded: "Sir, the distinguished guest has never ordered a young person to do things."

Li Zhen said calmly: "You know the words and words, and I plan to use you as a spy."

Zhao Yonghui responded: "Don't worry, sir, the younger one must have kept a close eye on the guests."

Li Zhen whispered: "What nonsense? I want to give you a record official position and send it to Zhengzhou."

Ah? Zhao Yonghui looked at Li Zhen with a disloyal look, looking like he was suspected of hearing it wrong.

"Why? I don't want to be an official?" Li Zhen said indifferently.
To be continued...
