Chapter 2882

Cam Ranh Port not only has a natural harbor with superior conditions, but also has a geographical location guarding the key waterway in and out of the South China Sea. Whether from the perspective of military or maritime trade, it is undoubtedly an important location of great strategic value.

Before Qian Tiandun came here, he could naturally imagine that many people would be eyeing this place. Whether it was used as a springboard for military career or as a transit station for ocean-going trade, it was a common practice.

However, it was still somewhat beyond his expectation that so many second-generation wearers chose to settle down in this place.

Generally speaking, the best choice for these second-generation children is to stay and develop in Sanya or Hainan Island. Not only can they enjoy the best living conditions of this era, but they can also make full use of their father's connections to gain real power in a certain country.

Find a stable and easy job in an important department.

Camlan Port, located 1,500 miles south of Sanya, is actually quite far from the center of power of the empire. Information from the outside world will be seriously lagging behind, and various resources are far less abundant than Sanya. If you want to make some achievements here,

, the difficulty is much higher than that of peers staying at the base camp.

Before Qian Tiandun had time to think about the reason, other officials came forward to see him.

This time the person who came was a middle-aged man, who looked to be in his forties or fifties. He was obviously no longer a disciple of the Time Travelers. And Qian Tiandun could tell from the official uniform he was wearing that this man was not a seaman.

Han official, but an Annan official.

Feng Annan introduced in the middle: "This is Master Ruan Wenxing, who is stationed in Camlan Port from Annan Kingdom."

Although Qian Tiandun had never heard of this man's name, seeing Feng Annan take the initiative to introduce him, he knew that this person should also be a number one person, so he quickly said "long admired".

This Ruan Wenxing did not mince words. After a few words of greeting, he introduced himself: "Brothers Ruan Jinggui and Ruan Jinggui are currently serving in your country. Maybe General Qian has heard of their names."

Qian Tiandun smiled and said: "It turns out to be the Ruan family of Nanyue, so Lord Ruan is also one of our own!"

During the civil war between the north and south of Annan, thanks to the intervention of Haihan, the small southern court was defeated without any suspense. At that time, many people from the influential Ruan family among the southern nobles chose to surrender to Haihan. Among them, more

There are people like Ruan Jinggui and Ruan Wenwen who were not only naturalized as Haihan citizens, but also later became officials in Haihan, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Ruan Jinggui, who used to be in charge of many commercial firms under the Ruan family, joined the Ministry of Commerce and became a subordinate of Schneider after joining Haihan. Ruan Wenwen, who had led the army, was recruited by the police department of Haihan and worked in Haihan for twenty years.

For many years, I didn’t officially retire until a few years ago.

At that time, the surrender of the two Ruan brothers and the naval commander Wu Sen was one of the important examples used by Haihan to propagandize against the enemy. Qian Tiandun was also one of the frontline combat commanders at the time, so he naturally remembers this period of history very well.

clear.

However, he was slightly puzzled by the fact that the Ruan family was one of the main forces in the small court of South Vietnam at that time. Although they were later pardoned by Zheng Jie for rebelling and surrendering, members of the Ruan family were no longer allowed to serve as officials in the court.

, became an unspoken rule in Annan’s officialdom. How could Ruan Wenxing become the special envoy of the Annan court to Cam Ranh Port?

His question was quickly answered by Feng Annan: "The King of Qingdu abdicated the year before last, and now King Xiding is in charge of the government. Some of these rules established more than 20 years ago are out of date.

Chance made the change.”

Qian Tiandun suddenly said: "That's it."

King Zheng of the Qing Dynasty was the partner of Haihan when he intervened in the Annan Civil War. In the early years, a series of cooperation projects between the two countries in various fields were all formal agreements signed by the Executive Committee and Zheng.

For more than 20 years after the Annan Civil War, the government has been controlled by Zheng Zhi. However, considering his age, Zheng Zhi is already over seventy. It is reasonable to pass the throne to his eldest son Zheng Zha.

.

As for why the ban on Ruan's entry into officialdom had become inappropriate now, Feng Annan couldn't explain it in detail in front of Ruan Wenxing. But for a person like Qian Tiandun, he had already guessed

It's quite a bit of an inside story.

The Ruan family has been operating in southern Annan for several generations. It has a very deep foundation and its local influence cannot be completely eliminated with just a few bans. What's more, some of the Ruan family's children are still officials in Haihan. Even if the Annan court wants to

When suppressing the Ruan family, we must also take into account the impact it will have on the outside world.

Many of the various industries operated by Haihan in southern Annam were borrowed from the Ruan family. Although the Ruan family was prohibited from entering the court to serve as an official, the scale of its business operations has exceeded the pre-war level, and it has a large monopoly in the south.

With so little property, not even the imperial court could get involved.

Zheng Zha has always had a good personal relationship with the senior officials of Haihan, and almost every year he goes to Sanya to stay for a while. Naturally, he also knows that the Ruan family has Haihan's support, and the Annan court wants to stabilize the domestic situation and gain more power in the south.

Fiscal and tax revenue must not bypass Haihan and the Ruan family. Therefore, after Zheng Zha succeeded to the throne, he made adjustments to some of the bans issued by his father in the early years against the southern nobles.

The fact that Ruan Wenxing was officially appointed by the Annan court already shows that Zheng Zha made certain compromises in this regard. Of course, such a compromise should not be a unilateral act, and the Ruan family must have paid some exchange conditions for this.

But from Haihan's point of view, he may not be happy to see Annan's internal conflicts resolved. This will only give Haihan one less means to contain Annan. Qian Tiandun plans to wait until a convenient occasion to inquire about the inside story from Feng Annan.

By the way, verify whether your guess is true.

After meeting this group of people, Qian Tiandun finally had time to eat a few more bites of food. Although there were many officials present, they were not qualified to allow them to meet alone, and they could only look at them with greedy eyes.

After the luncheon, the officials left one after another, and Feng Annan invited Yan Chujie and Qian Tiandun to the study for a chat.

Takahashi Nan was still a little hesitant to follow, but Feng Annan had already taken the initiative to greet him: "General Takahashi, please come too, let's communicate together."

Feng Annan's manor covers a large area. From the hall where the luncheon is held to the study room, there are actually three courtyards in between.

Several people entered the study room, and hot tea was brought in. Feng Annan withdrew his men and asked everyone to sit down and talk. However, Gao Qiaonan did not follow his arrangement, but followed his own habit and stood beside Qian Tiandun.

"Don't General Takahashi sit down?" Although Feng Annan knew that he regarded Qian Tiandun as his lord, he still couldn't help but ask more when he saw this behavior.

Takahashi Nan responded in a deep voice: "In front of several adults, I feel more comfortable standing in a humble position."

Feng Anan smiled when he heard this and no longer forced it.
