"Mu Haoran is calm and down-to-earth, diligent in style, and good at taking the strengths of others to make up for his own shortcomings, although he is younger, but he is fully capable of this position, isn't our Lord Qin younger than him. As for the complex ethnic composition of Loulan in the northwest, it borders on external forces on the west, south, and north, and it is too far away from the base area of our northwest county, and it is probably difficult to stabilize the rule without building a city. "Su Qin attaches great importance to the strategic position of Beiloulan, and he also has a very long-term vision.

"Yes, once this North Loulan is unfolded, it can become a bridgehead for us to enter the Western Continent, and its rich products can also be continuously imported into the empire, and the benefits brought by it cannot be calculated by money, so no matter how much blood you spend, you have to spend it. However, I think the local people of all ethnic groups also have a strong desire to develop the local economy, as long as reasonable planning, good at guiding, should be able to raise a lot of construction funds, of course, our investment here is also essential, but at present we in the northwest can do nothing, only to see if the adults can return to the imperial capital to report on the work of the party can achieve good results, so as to win some financial support for us, even if it is a loan. ”

Liang Qiming still knows the importance of Beiloulan very clearly, and he knows that the money that should be spent should not be spared at all, because the benefits obtained will be far greater than the investment.

"Lord Liang, do you think there will be any danger when you return to the imperial capital to report on your duties this time?" After being silent for a while, Su Qin suddenly asked a question.

"Danger? What do you mean? Liang Qiming was stunned, and when he saw that Su Qin's face was very solemn, he was also stern.

"There are all kinds of things, but I am mainly worried that the emperor will feel that the expansion of the power of the adults is too fast and endanger the rule of the imperial court, which shows that it endangers the rule of His Majesty and his successors, and it is not conducive to the lord." Su Qin said carefully. You must know that saying these things can be punished as rebellion.

Liang Qiming didn't open his mouth for a long time, obviously considering the possibility of such a situation. For a while, the room was silent, only the crackling sound of the charcoal basin in the central room.

After a long time, Liang Qiming said faintly: "Although the bird is full of bows and hidden rabbits and dead dogs, it is in the present form. I don't think we've gotten that far. The current prestige of the lord is also obvious to all in the government and the opposition, not to mention that this expedition to Loulan has opened up territory for the empire and expanded the prestige of the empire, even if there are some outrageous things, it is nothing compared to these achievements. There has to be an excuse to blame others. ”

"I hope so. I am mainly worried that His Majesty the Emperor is old, and if some people close to me slander him more, if the emperor is dizzy, it will be too late to regret it. ”

"Imagami is old, but his mind is not confused, besides. The lord is in the court, but there is still Grandpa Wei, as long as he is an old man, if the emperor has news that is unfavorable to the lord, Grandpa Wei will definitely come to the news as soon as possible. Liang Qiming's words were very affirmative.

"But when there is a real threat to the royal family's own interests, everything else will be put aside. Today's character is ruthless, and he knows it both inside and outside. The big man tree has caused many people to be jealous and hateful, which I have heard of in the imperial capital. There is no shortage of royal people. Su Qin's words were still full of doubts.

Liang Qiming let out a long sigh, "What you said is indeed reasonable. But I think it is imperative for adults to return to the capital to report on their work this time, and the character of the adults will never give up returning to the capital for this reason. I think it's better to report the situation to the adult first, and when the adult returns, we will give him our opinion. ”

The Empire's Double Dragon Drama Banner and the Northwest Army's Jinpeng Banner waved in the wind as the troops marched forward, and Qin Dui and his party took his Guards Wing as the core. The 1st Brigade of the 3rd Division marched to the west of Shuangdui as the vanguard. Vito City is more than 200 kilometers away from Shuangdui, and the whole trip takes only four days. However, the Guards Wing was the most elite unit under Qin Du's command, and the Third Division was a pure infantry division composed of Gaoshan tribesmen.

The army also passed through many towns and villages along the way. But the local people do not seem to be hostile to these outsiders, and seem to be somewhat indifferent. In their eyes, it seemed to be the same who would rule them, after all, the Loulanyang government had not paid much attention to the region, and much of the management was mere formality, and the real management was mainly confined to the cities and larger market towns. Of course, there are also some well-informed people who have heard some rumors, only to know that the rule of this area has changed hands, but the specific situation is not clear, so the road seems to be extraordinarily peaceful.

When Qin Dusk and the others arrived at the double stack, it became another scene. In addition to the army led by the above-mentioned officials and the officials headed by Mu Jia, the director of the Northwest War Readiness Administration, who arrived later to greet them on the main road outside the town, almost all the important people of the various ethnic groups in Loulan in the northwest also came to the intersection outside the town early to greet Qin Dui's arrival, and in their opinion, leaving a good impression on the future de facto masters of the region may be able to win more control over the interests of their own nation or group.

Accompanied by Shangguan Yonglun, Qin Duan had a cordial conversation with people from all ethnic groups and all walks of life, Qin Dui's approachable and sometimes kingly demeanor left an excellent impression on them, and then Qin Dui and the army officials and these gentry and celebrities reviewed the drills of the First Division, the strong strength of the First Division made these local celebrities smack, and the Fifth Division that followed made them feel even more shocked, seeing these Gaoshan barbarians waving their arms under Qin Duan, they were completely subdued.

With Lu Man as the composition of the Northwest County, the personnel have exchanged views on the formation of the Shuangdui Local Autonomous Government and the construction of Shuangdui City many times, and the selection of important government officials, urban construction planning, and the preparation of the local garrison force have also been basically finalized.

Due to the fact that the preliminary work was carried out quite solidly, Lu Man and people of all ethnic groups and all walks of life quickly became acquainted, especially Lu Man's merchant style is in line with the appetite of the local businessmen of all ethnic groups, and the work is progressing very smoothly, and now the arrival of Qin Du has made the establishment of the Shuangdui Autonomous Government and the construction of urban facilities in Shuangdui City become a matter of course, and the people of the entire Shuangdui are immersed in excitement.

As soon as he arrived at the double stack, Liang Qiming's urgent report from the northwest also arrived, and Qin Duan didn't care after reading the letter. Although the empire urged him to return to Beijing to report on his work, but now there is still more than a month before the Great Qin people are also the traditional festival of the empire - the spring festival, he is not in a hurry, and the establishment of the autonomous government of Shuangdui City and the construction of a new city are not trivial. After all, this is a new government and a city in a foreign land, and it is quite far away from its home base, but the location of this place determines that this place must be firmly in your own hands, and there can be no mistakes.

Therefore, Qin Duan decided to stay in the Shuangdui for a while, and it would not be too late to return after the work here was basically on track. Fortunately, Luhmann had already done a lot of work in the early days, and the main work that remained was to take matters into account himself. (To be continued......)
