"County magistrate, the people from the Dahe Chamber of Commerce in Lanzhou ask to meet."

The guards reported to Wang Lanling about the incident at the post house.

Wang Lanling was painting, and when he heard it, he said, "Arrange for them to meet in the conference hall." ”

"Yes!"

Wang Lanling stood up and went to the wardrobe next door to choose a formal military uniform to put on.

He didn't stand on his own from the Empire's bureaucracy, but he raised a team of his own to achieve his current achievements.

Therefore, on important occasions, it is okay to wear work uniforms and military uniforms, but you should not wear any suits and official uniforms.

The ideology and direction of the masses of the people are to a great extent influenced by the superstructure.

I didn't think about this before, but now that I have more time, I have to pay more attention to many things that I didn't pay attention to before and didn't think of.

After all, it was the first independent uprising, and some things were just inexperienced.

Bureaucrats cannot be trusted.

Wang Lanling knew the inevitability of history, and with the expansion of his territory, it was impractical to want to fully grasp the bureaucratic system as he did in the early days.

Therefore, the bureaucracy will inevitably produce its own voice, and it will coalesce into several factions and several voices.

Wang Lanling is now relying on inertia to push the entire bureaucracy, but this bureaucracy is destined to become larger and more bloated.

Even if he grasps the power in his hands, keeps holding meetings and releases his majesty, he will still be like an old emperor, unable to control the affairs of the middle and lower classes.

Exhausting this kind of thing consumes a lot of energy.

Wang Lanling is still in charge of the operation of the bureaucracy, but he has also begun to lay out for a few decades later, focusing on the overall planning of the army and the workers and peasants.

The officialdom of Heishui County has long been devoid of Wang Lanling's people, and Wang Lanling can quickly pull up a team when he goes to Heishui County.

The old people in the countryside of Heishui County still remember the incident of Wang Lanling giving them eggs and mutton during the Chinese New Year six or seven years ago!

What Wang Lanling grasped most strictly was not the bureaucratic clan's family members abusing their power for personal gain, but the influence of the bureaucratic clique on the middle and lower strata of workers, peasants, military and businessmen.

Prevent these people from ruining their reputation!

Temperament is indeed raised.

Wang Lanling has a sturdy figure, he is no longer the shivering thin boy who was frozen by the cold wind in Heishui County at the beginning, and the military uniform on his body is also tailor-made, and he is indeed mighty and handsome when he wears it.

The military uniform itself is easy to wear that handsome feeling, not to mention Wang Lanling, who has no worries about food and clothing, and also pays attention to exercise.

When the people from the Dahe Chamber of Commerce were brought in, they could recognize which one was Wang Lanling from the five or six people at a glance.

"Welcome." Wang Lanling, as the host, took the initiative to greet these people.

There are five people in total, three men and two women, all of whom are handsome and beautiful types.

The men were all in their forties, dressed elegantly, like celebrities more than merchants.

The two women are also graceful and luxurious, but they can clearly feel that they are a master and a servant.

Through the documents transmitted in advance, Wang Lanling knew the approximate identities of these people.

"Meet the Marquis of Lanling!" Dragon Ball Mingyue and Dragon Ball Class and others all politely greeted Wang Lanling.

These people are all from the empire, so calling Wang Lanling the Marquis of Lanling is a matter of the rules.

Wang Lanling smiled and said, "Please take a seat." ”

"Thank you!" Everyone sat down in order, and the closest to Wang Lanling was the Dragon Ball class.

Wang Lanling sat down after these people sat down and served tea, and said: "I have been waiting for you a few months ago, and I thank you for coming from afar to travel here." ”

In formal occasions, this kind of thing is said sentence by sentence, for example, if they are asked to sit down, they can't talk more nonsense, and they have to wait for people to thank them and sit down.

Everyone is a schooler, and that's how the etiquette class is conducted.

Wang Lanling is not all anti, red tape is not needed, but basic respect is still there.

At present, Wang Lanling and the empire have maintained normal commercial trade and exchanges, plus the two sides send students to each other, so the chamber of commerce in Lanzhou can also communicate with Wang Lanling normally, and there is no need to take too many risks.

After the basic etiquette procedures were completed, the two sides began to get down to business.

It's not that the program is useless, at least it's that each other is aware of each other's attitudes.

Wang Lanling is willing to talk about things, and the Dahe Chamber of Commerce is also respectful.

Mutual understanding of each other's basic attitudes is a very important signal for cooperation!

The Dragon Ball class said politely: "I heard that the Marquis of Lanling sells everything here?" ”

Wang Lanling said with a smile: "The goods that the workers can make are all sold." ”

The Dragon Ball class said expectantly: "I heard that the Marquis of Lanling will sell some sharp weapons here, and after you get it, you can be a husband and a wife, and you can't open it." ”

Wang Lanling said with a faint smile: "You are talking about machine guns, the effect of the outside is exaggerated, this thing is not difficult in technology, it can be made outside, we just have a little better use here than the outside world, if you want to buy it, I can sell some to you." ”

Do you do anything with money?

Only sell things, don't do things.

After buying the sharp weapon here, is it reliable?

Look at the opponent, I don't guarantee this.

After a somewhat tentative conversation, the Great River Chamber of Commerce made an order for five machine guns and ten boxes of ammunition.

It's just an appetizer, and there's more to come.

The Dragon Ball Ban continued: "It is a long way from Shanhai County, and it takes some time to travel by sea and land, so it is inconvenient to travel back and forth, so I have learned some things here, and I want to build a village for caravans to settle down and rest and carry goods. ”

Wang Lanling said directly: "It's okay to be on Giant Whale Island, which is suitable as a port trade area. ”

The Dragon Ball class's plan was to build a port in the land area, and at this time he said, "It's a little inconvenient there, especially for cargo transportation and the like, and it will inevitably be a lot of trouble when the time comes." ”

Wang Lanling quickly said: "It's okay, what's so difficult about the vicissitudes of life?" I will have people reclaim the sea, move the mountains that get in the way on the shore into the sea, and build a road and bridge to the island of Whale Island for cars and carriages. ”

"If there is no road, then make a road!"

"If there is no suitable port, then dig out a suitable port."

"As long as it is in the interests of Lanling County, even if it is to create an island outside of Lanzhou, it is okay."

Everyone was shocked, they could be regarded as people who had seen the world, but Wang Lanling could always be shocked!

The Dragon Ball class said with emotion: "The vicissitudes of life, the Marquis of Lanling is really full of pride and ambition, which impresses mortals such as us. ”

These people are all paying attention to following the trend, such as Wang Lanling's idea of creating a road without a road, they can only look up.
