Chapter 389: Cooperation
Duan Jian, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, had no idea about the Wang family's plans and decisions, or even if he really knew the Wang family's decision, he would only agree and be happy for the Wang family without the slightest discomfort.
Of course, compared to the Wang family, Duan Jian is now busy with more important things, from the county order of Qiantang County, to the long history of Suzhou, compared to the differences and incredibleness of others, in Duan Jian's opinion, there is no adaptation, the change of identity, bringing Duan Jian more is just some convenience, unlike other officials, becoming the standard for showing off.
"Congratulations to Lang Jun, congratulations to Lang Jun, Lang Jun was suddenly promoted from Qiantang County to Suzhou Changshi, not to mention that I am unique in the Tang Dynasty, but also a handful, given time, Lang Jun will be the marquis and pay homage to the prime minister, just around the corner." In the Suzhou City Assassin Shi Yamen, Duan Jian had just sent away the officials from Suzhou who came to greet him, and Wen Yurong stood up impatiently and congratulated Duan Jian.
Looking at Wen Yurong, who seemed to be happier than himself, Duan Jian was also helpless in his heart, shook his head and said, "Okay, Old Wen, do you still use such flattery between you and me, didn't the imperial court also give you the official title of General Shilang, not only you, Zhou Xing, isn't everyone happy and unhappy, aren't you chilling us when you say this?" ”
Hearing Duan Jian's ridiculous words, Zhou Xing and Le Buping also burst into laughter, but Wen Yurong didn't seem to see it, his face was still as calm as ever, which made Duan Jian and the others have to admire his cheekiness.
After a few people laughed, Duan Jian spoke again and got down to business.
"Okay, this time it was a blessing in disguise, and it didn't die, but there were huge benefits, but we can't forget our original intention, our purpose is not to make a long history, a team is right, a general Shilang is enough, we have only one goal, that is, one day stand upright in the court, enjoy the admiration of ten thousand people, so, now is not the time for us to enjoy, and even our next days, we have to live harder than before, you can think about it." Duan Jian said.
"Obey Lang Jun's orders, if you regret it, the sky will thunder." Everyone is right.
"Okay, in that case, let's arrange it, this time it became the long history of Suzhou, although it was unexpected, but it was also expected, Suzhou was the most prosperous place in the entire south of the Yangtze River, but after the rebellion of the Heavenly Taoism, the people's livelihood withered, all industries were depressed, and it was even inferior to the general county seat, so, for a while, the imperial court would not arrange for the history of the assassination to come, it can be said that this is a good opportunity for us to develop and grow, and it is also a good opportunity for us to make contributions, as long as we can make Suzhou City, In a short period of time, it has regained its former vitality, and I believe that the imperial court will not see it. Duan Jian continued.
"I don't know what Lang Jun has planned." Zhou Xing asked.
Among these people, I am afraid that only Zhou Xing pays the most attention to this point, although in terms of resourcefulness, Wen Yurong is the most powerful, but Wen Yurong is not an orthodox officialdom, and he does not know much about the experience of officialdom, he only knows that being an official is a very majestic thing, but he is not familiar with the rules of officialdom, but Zhou Xing is different, he has been influenced by his family since he was a child, and he has always been extremely outward to officialdom. Any chance to be promoted can make his blood boil.
"I think so, we have to take two steps, one step is the fastest plan at the moment, that is, to hold an extremely grand show, attract the attention of everyone in the world, in order to improve the reputation of Suzhou." As soon as Duan Jian said this, he was interrupted.
"Oh, this point is clear, it's like the Oiran Contest we held in Hangzhou, but let everyone in the world know that we are Hangzhou, and our Hangzhou is also extremely lively in those days, just like Yan Ming, isn't he just attracted by the Oiran Contest?" Duan Mu didn't know what was wrong this time, and shouted extremely cleverly.
Since the first battle of Yangzhou City, Yan Ming has also been completely integrated into Duan Jian's team, but after conquering Suzhou City, Yan Ming was afraid that the people in his family would worry, so he took leave from Duan Jian and went to his hometown to visit relatives.
Hearing Duan Mu's words, the expressions on everyone's faces moved, and then they all nodded one after another, approving this suggestion very much.
"This is the first step, I don't know what Lang Jun's second step is?" Wen Yurong asked.
"Is this the second step?" Speaking of this, Duan Jian did not continue, but looked at Duan Shui, who had been beside him and was silent.
"Ah, could it be that Lang Jun's second step is to implement the 'Zhancheng Rice'." Wen Yurong instantly understood Duan Jian's thoughts.
"Hahahaha, yes, this second step is to implement the 'Champa Rice', I have already told you, this 'Champa Rice' is a good thing, the natives in that place of Champong are all lazy and lazy people, the reason why the Tao has not been starved to death now, relying on the gift of God, not only has the endless fruit, even this rice is stronger than other places, two or three crops a year, so that they basically do not have the risk of starvation, a certain plan to test this in the official field this year' If the effect is indeed so powerful as the legend, if you want to use two or three years to plant this extremely high-yield rice in the entire Jiangnan, when the time comes, the grain output of our Jiangnan will greatly exceed the previous one, and Jiangnan will also become the most important granary of the imperial court. Duan Jian said with a smile.
Since ancient times, many people have been able to do things without disadvantage, no matter how difficult things are put in his hands, they can be completed extremely beautifully, and this kind of person is often a capable person in the eyes of others.
Although it seems mysterious, it is actually very simple to say, because no matter what, as long as you grasp the essence of the matter, you can find the corresponding solution, and these capable people are often the people who can grasp the essence of the matter.
In the eyes of others, it is the same as it is difficult to climb to the sky to restore Suzhou to its previous prosperity in a short period of time, but in the eyes of Duan Jian and others, this is not impossible, and things are often unexpected.
Since October, a news has spread throughout the Tang Dynasty with the businessmen who have traveled from south to north, up to the eighty-year-old man, down to the ignorant children, as far as the onion collar, and into the Tang Dynasty.
The reason why this activity in Suzhou is so lively, in addition to the vigorous promotion of Suzhou Yamen, the most important thing is due to Duan Jian's body, with Duan Jian's name of "poetry saint", personally held this world's first poetry conference, how can it not get the attention of everyone, especially those who usually make a living as a prodigal person, and are in the company of wine and poetry every day, they are even more overjoyed, and they call friends to go to Suzhou as soon as they hear the news.
For a while, Suzhou's name once again resounded in the Tang Dynasty, of course, I can't think of the notoriety of being captured by the Tiandao rebels last time, but this time it is a good name.
............................
"Why, have you thought about it, what are you going to do with the Heavenly Daoist Sect next, whether to continue to live incognito, or to completely dissolve it, and become an ordinary woman again, happy and carefree for a lifetime, where to go, but it's just between your thoughts." In Suzhou City, in the wooden building in the backyard of Ruyi Fang, Duan Jian looked at Su Xiu'er with a very rare solemn expression.
"Slave ........."
Just said two words, but Su Xiu'er couldn't say it anymore, if it was for other reasons, she was afraid that she would have a thousand words to say, but she didn't know how to speak about this matter.
It's not that she doesn't know how to speak, but she is really difficult to choose, on the one hand, she has been yearning for a free life since she was a child, no pressure, no responsibility, and live happily, but it is the responsibility that has been passed down to her by her family for generations, and she is really difficult to decide.
"Lady, you don't need to worry too much, what you think, just do what you do, I believe that the first holy lord has a spirit in the sky, and I don't want to watch you sacrifice yourself for the responsibility of your ancestors." Aunt Xia on the side said.
Hearing Aunt Xia's persuasion, Su Xiu'er not only did not make a decision, but frowned even closer.
"Why, isn't it hard to decide, or I'll help you figure out a solution." Looking at Su Xiu'er who was frowning, Duan Jian also felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, after all, people are emotional animals, from suspicion and suspicion at the beginning, to acquaintance later, and then to the current ambiguity, unconsciously, Su Xiu'er occupied a lot of place in Duan Jian's heart.
"You think of a way, what can you come up with, you are an official family, if it is known that you have something to do with the Holy Sect, I am afraid that it will bring you a lot of unnecessary trouble?" After hearing Duan Jian's words, Aunt Xia said with some doubts, of course, she also had a little worry in her words.
"Hahaha, don't worry, that kind of reckless thing, a certain will never do, it's just that there is really a way to get the best of both worlds, that is, to be able to retain the foundation of your holy religion, and not afraid of being hunted down by the imperial court, you want to hear it."
After looking at the serious expressions of Su Xiu'er and Aunt Xia, Duan Jian said, "Actually, this matter is also very simple, let you completely dissolve the Heavenly Dao Sect, you are definitely unwilling, but on the other hand, as long as you do not disband, the imperial court will never let you go, when the time comes, the world is so big, but there is no place for you at all, so, if you think so, if you don't mind, you can cooperate with you." ”
"Cooperate with you, how to cooperate, and aren't you afraid that this matter will be known by the imperial court, so as to set yourself on fire?" Su Xiu'er asked in great surprise.
Looking at the look of surprise and worry on Su Xiu'er's face, Duan Jian's heart softened, and he said with a smile, "It seems that you really don't understand the imperial court and officialdom, for the imperial court, no matter who he is, as long as he can be used by the imperial court, then he is his own person, whether it is a bandit with bloody hands or a thief who steals petty, this is why in the face of some rebellions, the imperial court will carry out Zhao'an, compared with those murderous giants, what are you Taoist fish who have slipped through the net."
Even if it is really known by the imperial court, the imperial court will not blame Yu X too much, as long as the court determines that you will no longer have the intention and ability to rebel, you will not do any additional actions at all, besides, you can also say that you were gathered by XX when I exterminated the Heavenly Daoist Sect, will the court deal with XX because of this trivial matter? Of course, since it is cooperation, it is not unconditional. ”
"What conditions."
"It's very simple, after you cooperate with so-and-so, so-and-so will provide you with all the things you need, money, materials, and even reserve personnel, as long as you need it, so-and-so can provide it, and so-and-so only asks you to do things for so-and-so when so-and-so needs you, no matter what these things are, you are willing to do this." The smile on Duan Jian's face had already retracted at this time, but it was replaced by a serious face.
Hearing Duan Jian's condition, Su Xiu'er and Aunt Xia looked at each other, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time, as for their hearts, they were even more turbulent, Su Ri didn't know the root of Duan Jian's doing, but from Duan Jian's brief words just now, it could be heard that Duan Jian's purpose was definitely not small, and it was likely that as soon as it appeared, it would be earth-shattering, and they might also fall into the abyss, and it would never be easy to turn over.
Although they knew that Duan Jian's proposal was a poison wrapped in honey, in the end, Su Xiu'er and Aunt Xia still nodded and agreed, without him, at this time, only Duan Jian's proposal was good for the Heavenly Dao Sect and them, as for what the Heavenly Dao Church would become in the future, it was no longer something they could imagine, they knew that from this moment on, they and Duan Jian had really become fellow travelers in the same boat.
Looking at Su Xiu'er, who nodded in agreement, a smile climbed onto Duan Jian's face again, to be honest, the current Heavenly Dao Sect can be described as extremely decaying, among the four major halls, the two halls of the Blue Dragon and the White Tiger are completely finished, and the Vermilion Bird Hall is only a very small hall, and there is no ability at all, only one Xuanwu Hall is left, and it barely maintains its previous combat strength.
And this is exactly what Duan Jian needs, a powerful, hidden subordinate can help him do many things that he can't do on the surface, which can be clearly seen from the factory guards of the Ming Dynasty, it is precisely because of the existence of the factory guards that the children of the Zhu family, who are full of mediocrity, can continue the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years, and change it to other dynasties, not to mention that the emperor has not been in court for decades, even if he does not appear for a few days, I am afraid it will cause great panic.
In addition to this, there is also the most important point, that is, Duan Jian, who is familiar with history, knows that in the next few decades, the whole world or the entire court will be in chaos, and the children of the martial arts family and the Li clan, as well as other forces with other schemes, will cause endless chaos in the court and the people, and at this time, there is a team that can find out the news of all parties for himself, which will bring great convenience to Duan Jian's progress and decision.
Ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for support
