Zhang Nanxuan has his own analysis, and it is logically very self-consistent.

Jiang Xiaoyu is the leader of the Jiangcheng rangers, and he is considered a public official. And his biggest boss is Wang Shixiang, the new city lord of Jiangcheng. Wang Shixiang was demoted to Jiangcheng to be the lord of the city, and he was mostly dissatisfied. Because from a fifth-grade official to an eighth-grade official, no one will be comfortable. What's more, he moved from the imperial capital to Jiangcheng, a poor and remote place.

So Wang Shixiang mostly wants to start over. But what can he do? How can he make some achievements in Jiangcheng?

Zhang Nanxuan felt that Wang Shixiang must feel that he could achieve something by himself. As for what it is, he can't say.

"Zhang Shaoxia, actually, this time the competition between you and Senior Bai has actually been recorded. Jiang Xiaoyu saw that Zhang Nanxuan had already entered the urn, although he was proud in his heart, he still had the face of a philistine oil official on the surface.

"Recorded it. This is something that Zhang Nanxuan is a little afraid of: "By the media?"

"Yes, the reporter from the Imperial Daily happened to be passing by Jiangcheng. Hearing about the competition between Zhang Shaoxia and Bai's predecessors, he thought it was a good news topic, so he recorded it. I happened to be right next to him, watching him record everything. And he is also preparing to send the information to the imperial capital to make a newsletter. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu said it very easily, but for Zhang Nanxuan, this is huge bad news.

Because the last thing I want now is to be reported. If it is reported by the Imperial Daily, his reputation will plummet.

What kind of product endorsements do you want to take in the future? It's impossible! Maybe people will turn their heads to find Bai Wufang. Because he defeated himself, and Bai Wufang seemed to have mastered some new swordsmanship, Bai Wufang might regain some fame in the rivers and lakes.

For Jianghu products, the fame of the spokesperson is also very important.

"Zhang Shaoxia, I know what you're worried about. ”

"You know, heh, it was your city lord Wang Shixiang who told you. ”

"Hey, hey. Jiang Xiaoyu laughed twice but did not deny it, which made Zhang Nanxuan feel that he had guessed correctly.

"Say, what does Wang Shixiang want me to do. Zhang Nanxuan didn't plan to go around the bend with Jiang Xiaoyu: "What he wants, what can he give me." ”

Zhang Nanxuan didn't plan to go directly to see Wang Shixiang, because in this case, if the talks between the two broke down, there would be no room for turning back.

And Zhang Nanxuan vaguely knew that Wang Shixiang might be doing something in Jiangcheng. And what Wang Shixiang wants to do is if he lets himself charge into battle, he won't do it. And some things came out of his mouth and into his ears, and he couldn't escape from it in the future.

Wang Shixiang stood in line in the battle for the throne in the imperial capital. So bring a cup and come here to be a petty official.

So he wants to get back on his ......

But if he can recover, and he can profit from it......

Zhang Nanxuan thought about a lot of things, and now he is doing something famous.

Zhang Nanxuan knows very well that if you want to get something in this world, you must give something, and you must take it in advance, which is an unbreakable truth in this world.

He has already lost to Bai Wufang, and his reputation in the rivers and lakes will inevitably fall a lot with this defeat in the future.

I originally followed the old road of white and flawless personality, and now that I have been slapped in the face by the original, I am afraid it will be more difficult to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future. In particular, this incident was recorded by the reporter of the Imperial Daily.

If it was reported by other sporadic tabloids, Zhang Nanxuan might not have paid much attention to it, but the Imperial Daily is the most important newspaper in the entire empire. Its influence is not at all comparable to those new stars and other newspapers.

After all, a magazine like Jianghu Nova can only be regarded as second-rate in the media circle of the entire empire.

The Imperial Daily is a major mainstream first-line media newspaper that everyone from the Wang family to the peddlers and pawns will subscribe to watch.

The Imperial Daily says that if a person is good, then he is good, and the Imperial Daily says that if a person is bad, then he must be bad.

Even His Majesty the Emperor was afraid of being reviled by the Imperial Daily. If he is on the Imperial Daily and is ridiculed by the reporters and editors of the Imperial Daily, then he will soon become the next obsessed Bai Wufang.

"Zhang Nanxuan's son. Actually, what we adults want you to do is not particularly complicated, nor is it particularly difficult. It doesn't have a big impact on you either. ”

"But you can get some benefits out of it. ”

Just as Zhang Nanxuan began to think, Jiang Xiaoyu whispered in his ear.

The whispering rain in the ears was like a demonic temptation.

"Actually, the empire is going to war, you know?"

This news as a disciple of the Taiyi Sect. Zhang Nanxuan naturally knew.

However, this news should be very secret, and only the high-level people in the court and the top people in the rivers and lakes can know about it. I knew it because Uncle Shi accidentally leaked my mouth.

After all, military affairs are very secret. The empire wants to do something to the wolves of the north. There is nothing strange about knowing this news, after all, his own resources are placed in this place, and his identity is also placed in this place, but Jiang Xiaoyu, as a ranger in Jiangcheng, is too surprising to know this news.

What qualifications does a little city seeker have to know such a militaristic event?

Therefore, in Zhang Nanxuan's heart, he became more and more convinced of the idea that Jiang Xiaoyu was a puppet sent by Wang Shixiang.

"The Empire wants to do something to the wolves of the north. But the top and bottom are not necessarily in unison. Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Works was the largest copper mill in the empire. ”

"The steel and copper produced, as well as the precious gold, and the purple gold needed to refine the divine soldiers. Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Plant has production. But to be honest, there are important problems at the Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Plant. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu whispered in Zhang Nanxuan's ear, as if he was very afraid that what he said would be heard by the third person.

Zhang Nanxuan secretly said in his heart: The drama is here. Jiang Xiaoyu, this guy was really sent by Wang Shixiang.

Zhang Nanxuan asked quietly, "What's the problem?"

"Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Plant is extremely corrupt. This steel mill has been corrupted to the roots. Every year, taxes are smuggled, steel is smuggled, gold is smuggled, and even purple gold is smuggled. The whereabouts of these things have been found all the time. Therefore, Lord Wang Shixiang was obviously relegated to Jiangcheng to be the lord of this small city. It's actually ......"

"But it's actually here to solve the Jiangcheng corruption case, right?" Zhang Nanxuan directly preempted what Jiang Xiaoyu hadn't finished speaking.

Jiang Xiaoyu gave a thumbs up and praised heartily: "Zhang Gongzi really knows how to think exquisitely. What the city lord wants to investigate now is the corruption case of the Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Plant, but in order not to alarm the high-level leaders of the steel plant, he didn't bring too many powerful helpers here. However, the Jiangcheng Iron and Steel Plant was led by the Long Fei brothers, and their subordinates recruited quite a lot of people. Lord Wang was afraid that they would really be in a hurry, so they jumped over the wall in a hurry, and when the time came, they tore up the account books, destroyed all traces, and made the factory ineffective. In the end, he delayed the military affairs of the empire, in that case, he would be unable to escape the blame for his death. ”

"So Lord Wang hopes that Zhang Gongzi will help him. Zhang Gongzi, don't always stare at the rivers and lakes to see the one-third of an acre, who knows that this world is the world of the royal family after all. The empire has also always been the empire of royalty. can contribute to the empire, and it is a decisive force. In the future, you will not be known as a hero in the history books, but a hero of the empire. If today's things can be done, don't say that they will be defeated by the hands of the white and flawless. Even if you lose at my hands, no one will blame you. ”

"Because everyone will think that you are just forbearance and sacrifice to complete the great cause of this empire!"

Zhang Nanxuan's heart was slightly shaken.

Jiang Xiaoyu said something that made Zhang Nanxuan make up his mind: "Zhang Gongzi, you have 11 competitors." Who is the next person to walk in Taiyimen, who will be able to hold the authority of Taiyi in the rivers and lakes in the future, and who will be the master of the heavenly level, who will be the master of the earth level, and who will be the master of the human level. In fact, at this time, the competition has already begun. There is only one master, Zhang Gongzi has a good saying, those who do not plan everything are not enough to seek a moment, and those who do not plan the overall situation are not enough to seek a place. You're going to start working on your long-term work!"

Zhang Nanxuan's heart was clever. It was like an initiation.

It's just that Zhang Nanxuan doesn't know. The court is sinister and dangerous, thousands of times more dangerous than the rivers and lakes. Today's rivers and lakes, although there are occasional fluctuations, are generally as gentle and moving as the autumn moon on the Ping Lake. The rivers and lakes are romantic.

But the court is not, no matter how calm it looks, the court itself is turbulent and crushed. Anyone who ascends to a high place has bought it with blood and power.

Zhang Nanxuan may be very smart, but he doesn't understand the rules of the court yet. He also didn't know what kind of whirlpool he would be drawn into, and whether he would be able to get out of it later. What kind of trouble will politics bring to Taiyimen. None of this was what he could know now.

The young and vigorous Zhang Shaoxia now only thinks of the moment when his glory, wealth and fame move the world in the future, and it becomes the plot of the rivers and lakes.

At this moment, Zhang Nanxuan seemed to feel that he was radiant.
