Chapter 596: Recognizing a Thief as a Father?
With Wu Meicun's official entry into the Haicheng Morning Post, Xu Changqing's all-round system of 'sea, land and air' is almost ready to take shape.
In terms of the Heavenly Family, Xu Changqing has reached an agreement with Empress Zhou, and maintains a strong intimacy, and politically, he has retained a considerable depth, which can be said to be offensive and defensible.
At the military level, as the peace and kinship gradually enter the orbit, not to mention more, at least it can maintain a balance period with the Manchu Qing for half a year or even longer, at least to keep Zhu Cihong on the throne, which is not a big problem.
In this process, whether it is the model military headquarters or the ordnance workshop, they will get more abundant rest and development, and lay a more solid foundation.
In terms of politics, with the powerful families in the south, Haicheng continued to hold high-end drinking parties, including the next 'Oiran Trials', which has successfully brought the trend of the entire Ming Dynasty-controlled area and made Haicheng a 'holy land'.
The benefits of this large investment may not be large enough in the short term, but over time, the benefits will become apparent.
It's a bit like the Cold War.
Even if polar bears continue to brainwash, countless young people are more yearning for rice and Western Europe......
This also makes even though Ma Shiying and Shi Kefa are still holding on the front, they are no longer too much of a threat to Xu Changqing.
Especially with the increasing development of the "Haicheng Morning Post", this influence is no longer only the control area of the Ming Dynasty, but will soon extend to the Qing Dynasty, the Great Shun Kingdom, and the Shu Land.
And these layouts, each of which is basically 'double-headed', can ensure that all positions can be firmly controlled by Xu Changqing.
Even though Xu Changqing can't directly pry the balance of the world at this time, in terms of stability and solidity, Xu Changqing is already in the leading position.
The only thing that is a little embarrassing is the agriculture of the Shandong Left Association.
For various reasons, Haicheng has become a commercial city, and agriculture is very thin and difficult to develop.
To put it bluntly, the military level is not stable enough, and Xu Changqing can only 'come leisurely'.
However, as the hinterland of Qingzhou gradually recovers, especially the results of the sweet potato trial, this will improve at least this time next year.
"Lord, this is the development situation of Neihai City in the last month, after Shen Ye's grain and grass came over at the end of last month, our overstretched situation has been alleviated, but it is still a little not optimistic. We must store more grain and grass for the winter......"
Official hall, outer study.
Li Yan is reporting to Xu Changqing.
According to Daming's practice, this kind of work is basically a quarterly report, or even a half-year report, but Haicheng is extremely fast-paced, Xu Changqing will definitely not wait that long, so he will report it every month.
This has undoubtedly greatly increased Li Yan's workload, but the benefits are also obvious.
It can allow Xu Changqing to better control the pulse of Haicheng and Shandong Left Association.
Moreover, Li Yan should have talked to the red lady, he is in a very good state at this time, and he has accepted three concubines in the past few days.
"Strategist, it's hard work. Storing grain and grass is the most important thing, and you have to worry about it. By the way, what's going on with Lord Cao, the governor of Caoyun? ”
Xu Changqing smiled and handed Li Yan a cigar, and knocked out one himself.
The two lit up separately, and Li Yan smiled and said, "Lord, I have already exchanged a few letters with that Lord Cao, and he is still willing to lean towards us." However, this guy is very cautious, and wants to wait and see, the two ends of the first rat. ”
Xu Changqing couldn't help sneering: "In this world, how can there be such a good thing?" In this way, military advisor, you let him come to Haicheng. See how he reacts! ”
"Good! The subordinates will do it immediately. ”
After sending Li Yan away, Xu Changqing moved his hands and feet, returned to the inner study, opened the window, and looked at the scenery outside.
At this time, although the big framework was determined by Xu Changqing and began to develop gradually, there were still many details that Xu Changqing had to worry about!
Among them, the first to bear the brunt is to 'buy horse bones' with a thousand dollars, and gather more literati who are down-and-out but have real talents and hard work.
Wumei Village and Mao Bijiang can be counted as a wave.
But it's not enough!
Especially the literati of Huguang, Fujian, Guangdong, including Guangxi, Hainan Island, and even the Great Qing Kingdom and the Great Shun Kingdom.
Let everyone in the world feel his Xu Changqing's open-mindedness and sincerity.
But this kind of thing must be in a hurry, the 'Oiran Trials' is a good opportunity, and Xu Changqing can only be patient first.
In addition, the military heart, the back house, the resettlement of the homeless, including some business things, all need Xu Changqing to worry about.
"I still can't slack off."
Xu Changqing shook his head and smiled.
There's no way around it.
Even though Xu Changqing's 'small court' has already taken shape, it is still a grass platform team, which is far from the smooth operation of the real imperial court, and there are many new things involved, and Xu Changqing must worry about it personally.
How can it be so easy?
……
At the end of June, the 'Oiran Trials' were in full swing.
Jining Mansion, Xuzhou Mansion, including Kaifeng Mansion still under the control of the imperial court, as well as Qinglou in many places in the south of the Yangtze River, there are already many beauties, old bustards, turtle slaves, gradually flocking to Haicheng, and the Haicheng is more lively.
That is to say, Haicheng is completely structured according to Xu Changqing's intentions, and there is a lot of leeway as early as the beginning of the structure, otherwise, even if it is Jingshi City, it may not be able to accommodate so many floating populations.
Liu Ruyi's ability is still quite good, not only does Dong Yu's side coordinate very well, but the front of the Oiran competition is even better.
Moreover, she finally showed the exquisiteness she had experienced over the years.
Not only did they leave places for Gu Hengbo, Kou Baimen, Bian Yujing, and Chen Yuanyuan, but she also gave places to Dong Xiaowan.
This also made Xu Changqing a little breathtaking.
This girl has changed platforms, and her abilities have begun to show.
To some extent, it is not a big problem for her to be a wife.
However, Xu Changqing just listened to the report every day, and almost no time was wasted on it, and he also took this opportunity to more carefully sort out some potential problems in Shandong Left Association and Haicheng, remove some of the impurities that must be removed, and also find, discover, and promote some new talents.
June 25.
Xu Changqing came to Fengguo Town and inspected the three thousand corps stationed here, Zhao Zengjin's department, Wang Anshan's department, and the Red Lady's department.
The red lady's injuries at this time have been much better and she can already stand, but she is still a little weak and needs to rest, so she is still in a wheelchair.
Although Xu Changqing has been busy these days, he has never forgotten her, and basically comes to take care of her when he has time, even if he accompanies her for a meal.
This also makes the red lady's mental state very good, as if she has been reborn.
After inspecting the troops, at noon by Zhao Zengjin, Wang Anshan, Feng San and their gang of people poured a lot of wine, Xu Changqing was also a little big, and came to the earthen fort in the center of Fengguo Town to rest.
It's a pity that Bumu Butai and Su Mo'er have already moved out of the city at this time and are no longer here, the red lady wants to take care of Xu Changqing, but there is nothing she can do at this time.
After letting Ergou take care of him and sleep for half an afternoon, Xu Changqing felt much better, and after getting up and washing his face, he was also ruthless, "Zhao Zengjin and Wang Anshan on the dog day, wait for the whole army competition at the end of July, see how Lao Tzu cleans you up!" ”
At this time, it was already evening, and it was raining lightly, Xu Changqing beckoned Ergou to pack up the carriage and prepare to go back to the city, and came to the terrace to stretch his muscles.
Suddenly, I found out.
On the large terrace at the height of one-third of the platform, a little kid who was only three or four years old and had a money rat whip was running happily in front, rushing into the light rain and not caring at all.
Soon, two little girls of six or seven years old, seven or eight years old were chasing him.
"Ouch, master, two little masters, don't run, don't run, this rain is cold, you will get sick......"
In a moment, a lame eunuch in a horse coat hurriedly chased out, screaming at the throat of a male duck.
It's a pity that this terrace is designed for the military, and it is very large, and he can't catch up with this lame leg at all.
The three children also became more and more happy, like a clever in the rain, and continued to play and play.
Xu Changqing originally wanted to go back to the city, but after watching it for a while, he suddenly slapped his head, changed his attention, and went downstairs directly.
"Sister, sister, come and chase me, come and chase me, haha, ouch......"
The little kid was running away, and suddenly hit something, sat on the ground, snorted in pain, and then was about to scold something, but he saw clearly what he hit, and then, as if he saw a demon, the little body couldn't stop trembling, and the whole person was a little bad, and he didn't know what to do.
The two little girls in the back quickly saw the tall man clearly, and stood stupidly on the spot, too late to wipe the rain off their faces.
Only the old eunuch was still screaming behind his back, telling them to slow down.
"Hehe, Bo Guoer, come, call Dad."
Xu Changqing squatted down at this time, kept his eyes on the same level as Bo Guo'er, and looked at him with a gentle smile.
“……”
Bo Guoer was silent for a while, trembling but clenching his little fists tightly.
Seeing that he was not sensible, Xu Changqing was not angry, and beckoned to the two girls and said, "You two, come here, don't get drenched in the rain anymore." ”
How dare the two girls resist Xu Changqing's words? Hurriedly and obediently ran to the eaves not far away, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
"Boguoer, where are you?"
At this time, the old eunuch and a female voice arrived at the same time, but as soon as they saw Xu Changqing's figure, the two of them trembled at the same time, and they immediately stood on the spot, at a loss.
Xu Changqing glanced at the woman with a smile: "How is the concubine doing recently?" It's Changqing's fault that he let you live here all the time. ”
“……”
Namu Zhong bit his red lips tightly, and didn't dare to look at Xu Changqing, but even if he was extremely afraid of Xu Changqing, he still mustered up the courage, used Mongolian etiquette, touched his chest with one hand, knelt on the ground on one knee, and said to Xu Changqing respectfully: "Uncle, you, you are a person who exists like the great Immortal Heaven, and please, don't be angry with this child Bo Guoer......
As she spoke, her tears couldn't stop pouring out, and she couldn't stop sobbing.
She had long known that it would definitely not be safe to live here, and since Bumu Butai and Su Mo'er moved from here, she has been trying to find a house, but unfortunately, there is no suitable one for the time being.
Who would have thought that with this effort, Xu Changqing actually came over and caught Bo Guoer......
Xu Changqing was suddenly a little displeased, and frowned: "What does this mean, concubine?" Is my Xu Changqing so unwelcome? You are my Xu Changqing's woman, shouldn't Bo Guoer call me Dad? Did I raise a white-eyed wolf? ”
As he spoke, Xu Changqing looked at Bo Guoer coldly: "Bo Guoer, call Dad!" ”
Bogol is still stubborn.
Even though he knew that Xu Changqing was almost invincible, he was unwilling to give in, clenching his small fists and looking at Xu Changqing's upper.
He will never forget the scene outside Shanhaiguan at that time, when the sharp edge of the model army killed countless warriors and rushed to them......
Namu Zhong was also anxious at this time, and said hurriedly: "Bo Guoer, call quickly." Uncle is, your father......"
