Chapter 319 New Dude
The king knocked on the mountain and shocked the tiger to scare off Li Taishou. Li Taishou's nephew, who wanted to ask for help, was also sensible. He took the reward of silver and met people in the city and said: How can the new prince beat his subordinates without favoritism? Now the people feel that this prince is different from other officials. Wang's reputation is even greater, not only in Yongzhou, but also The people of the land know their craftsmanship, and the business people have gone south one after another, hoping to have the opportunity to make money. The south has become the hottest thing in the Song Dynasty at present.
A few days later, the relatively good projects were selected. Wang ordered people to post a notice to call these prospective bidders to discuss collectively. During the discussion, they had to elaborate on the questions in the construction. Now the bidding became more transparent, and the people slowly dispelled their doubts, and finally waited until the results of the bid was announced. At that time, Song Shoujun was boiling, and the tender plan carefully prepared by some people was adopted. Even those who failed to win the bids were convinced to see such a result.
Next is the intensive construction. He Xingyuan and Li Jie are in charge of this matter. After arranging the construction of the dock yard, Wang was a little more at ease. Then he received a letter from impeachment, saying that the matter of Goryeo was very smooth, and he could take the first batch of Goryeo before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival. The discuss fleet has arrived in Yongzhou. At the same time, the capital also sent a message that Wang's business in the capital is working normally,
Hearing this, He Xingyuan, Li Jie, Cai Jing and others couldn't help but be happy, but the king frowned slightly,
"Your Majesty, are you worried that the new pier will not be built at that time?" He Xingyuan asked in a low voice,
Wang shook his head: "That's not true. The old wharf outside Songshou County can still be used for the time being, but there is no problem in dealing with the docking of Korean merchant ships. In addition, you can use the commercial trade of Goryeo to smooth the order process of the city."
"Your Majesty, what else are you worried about?" He Xingyuan asked puzzledly,
The king took the letter and handed it to He Xingyuan: "Mr. He, look at the above date. It is more than two months and less than ten days away. That is to say, the fastest transmission of information between us and the capital is the fastest, and it will take more than ten days. It will take a month or two this time. The information transmission is too slow..."
What he said, He Xingyuan and those present seemed to understand. Wang also knew that they didn't understand. Fortunately, this is a slow-paced dynasty, and everything would be slowed down several times, just like Gao Zhisheng of Dali, who followed Wang back to Yongzhou slowly, as if he was waiting for Wang to return to Dali with him.
In fact, Gao Zhisheng was also worried, but it was useless to be anxious at the moment. After all, he had not figured out how to face Duan Su when he went back. In the face of what might happen, he followed Wang to Yongzhou and found that Yongzhou was much more lively than when he came before. When he returned to the Zhennan Palace next to the king, Gao Zhisheng was indispensable to Yan'er and Pearl. He asked this and that, but this time he didn't say much. He just said what he had seen and heard in Songshou County.
After listening to this, the two close maids put down their hanging heart. Pearl couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, I think you praise this prince very much, and you are your brother. If Miss Duan knows this, you must be even more complaining."
"If my brother can help me and stop letting Miss Duan Su marry Tubo, there is nothing to complain about." Gao Zhisheng's expression now is much more relaxed than when he first arrived in Yongzhou. He sat down at the table and thought about what had happened recently while drinking tea.
Zhuer Yaner looked at each other: "So, this king of Zhennan can really help the prime minister, the prime minister, please tell me quickly, what's the best way to do it?"
"What a way... I don't know yet, but in a few days, the king of Zhennan will go back to Dali with us."
"Ah, that's great~" Pearl, Yan'er said with a smile,
"Okay, let's see how you two are happy. Do you like this prince?"
When Gao Zhisheng said this, Yan'er blushed and said, "How can the prime minister make such a joke? We are your people... Besides, you didn't even bring your own guards when you came out this time. In case something happens on the way..."
"Ha ha..." Gao Zhisheng interrupted her with a smile, which was the same thing again. The two close maids were quite nagging: "Well, I'm really a little angry this time. By the way, I'm not here these days, but someone has come to me."
Yan'er stopped smiling and replied, "Someone has really come to you these days. One is your bodyguard Ying Dayong, and the other is the sservant of our prime minister's house, who has asked you for instructions."
"Oh." Gao Zhisheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Did Ying Darong say anything?"
"Well, since the last banquet in the south of the palace, it has not been so convenient for people to come in and out. We are afraid of causing trouble for the prime minister, so we left a message for them to see them when you come back."
"Well," Gao Zhisheng nodded: "Did Darong say anything about Yang Yizhen?"
Yan Er shook her head: "Your Majesty, how could your bodyguard talk so much to us? By the way, there is another person who is looking for you. He is not from our prime minister's mansion. He said that he was sent by Jia."
The surname is Jia. Isn't that Jia Qing? It seems that Wu Ling and others are right. The boy really came to Yongzhou, but what did he do when he came to Yongzhou? "Where does this person stay? Did he leave any message?"
"No, this man is mysterious. At first, we said that you were not in Yongzhou. He didn't believe it yet. He asked others again. I heard that you went to Songshou County to find the king of Zhennan, so he didn't come again."
Hearing Yan'er's words, Gao Zhisheng couldn't help smiling bitterly. Jia Qing was really gloomy. He would rather offend the gentleman than the villain, but where on earth did he offend him? Generally speaking, Jia Qing himself did not dare to appear in the Zhennan Palace. Presumably he sent away his subordinates, and the people under him were afraid that it would not be good to go back. After crossing, he only came to investigate again and again. After the matter of Song Shoujun, Gao Zhisheng felt that Wang Bong was very worth making friends with, but he didn't know what to do next thing and what Wang Bing thought.
Gao Zhisheng thought for a time. He had to ask Wang about this matter clearly, and he also had to deal with the affairs of his house. Now he was really anxious to see Ying Dayong. Ying Dayong was his trusted bodyguard and was ordered to investigate Yang Yizhen's whereabouts. Now Ying Dayong came back to Yongzhou to find himself so soon. Presumably, there must be a very important situation to Reported,
Wang Bing returned to the Yongzhou Palace. He first dealt with some things reported by the magistrate and the general judge. Seeing that most of the local officials still did a good job step by step, Wang Bing gave a small encouragement: "Let go and do it. You have done a good job." Hearing this, the magistrate Feng Shen and the judge Tao Ran were very beautiful. The prince was not as difficult to get along with as they thought. After reporting the important things, the two left the royal palace and went to work separately. The king called Hou Shuxian and Cai Jing. An old man and a young man followed Wang to Taibao Bank,
These two people followed, and the king pretended to travel in simple clothes. At first glance, he looked like a rich man. Although walking on the street, some people recognized that he was the prince of Yongzhou, and some people whispered together, but it seems that people are used to the behavior of the king, generally Who dares to say hello to the prince? It's enough to look at it from a distance with awe and appreciation. There is no way to call injustice, no encirclement and cheering. On the contrary, the king feels relaxed and comfortable.
The door of Taibao Bank is open, and occasionally there are people entering and exiting. On the side of the platform at the door, there are various interest rates of deposits and loans on a notice board. From time to time, someone will stop and look at it for a while. The three people next to Wang stepped into the bank. There were people who deposited or withdraw money in front of the four counters in the hall. A bank clerk walked. After that, according to the regulations of the king, he said to the three people with a smile, "Three, what kind of business do you do?"
This is a young man. Not long after he came to the bank to work, he was arranged a reception job. Wang laughs in his heart. The person who works in his family does not know the head of the family. "Is Jiao Deyou here?"
The little guy was stunned. This man was not small. Jiao Deyou was the manager of the bank. He actually called his name directly. He also looked like a rich man. He didn't dare to neglect and said respectfully, "Yes, upstairs, you wait for me to say hello to you."
As soon as the clerk turned around and ran upstairs, the man on the cabinet downstairs looked up and recognized the king. He quickly lowered his head and continued to do the business in his hand, but with a grate smile on his face. It seemed that he wanted to see the little clerk's joke. It was not hard to do. Jiao Deyou followed the little man down with the little man. The two went downstairs. Jiao Deyou saw that it was Wang Bian and Hou Shuxian. Cai Jing and the other three of them stood in the hall. He patted the little guy on the neck and said, "Bad boy, you don't even know our prince."
The little man touched Geng'er's neck with his hand and said with an embarrassed face, "Well, this is our prince. It's really the first time I've seen it."
Jiao Deyou ignored him and hurriedly greeted him: "Your Majesty, I knew you were coming back soon. The accounts of these days have been prepared for you. Please go upstairs."
Wang side smiled, and the man immediately blushed like a favor. Hee he giggled. Wang and Jiao Deyou went upstairs. He also looked at Wang's back and was stunned. There were guests waiting in line to save money and smiled: "Hey, you don't even know your own prince, and you keep giggling. Be careful of being in charge of your family. I'll dismiss you, haha"
The little man curled his lips and said, "Well, do you see, this is our prince. Is he handsome? He just smiled at me? You say, are you good or not? Besides, I don't know the prince who just came here. Some of the prince's house have never seen him, and have you heard of it? Our prince is extremely good to the people under him. As you said."
The guest smiled again: "Yes, yes, yes, you are still standing outside the cabinet. Of course, you don't know the prince." What he said was the counter of this bank. In the eyes of outsiders, there is a big difference between inside and outside the cabinet.
The little guy glanced at the inside of the counter and didn't say anything, but he was unconvinced. What's the inside of the counter? I'm going upstairs, or I still want to be like that.
