Chapter 684: Unintentionally inserted into the willows
In the eyes of the six princes, Xu Lao himself has already had a lot of experience, and even now he may have been related to the immortals, and his status is extraordinary.
However, even at this time, this Du Gongzi can still make Xu Lao look at him differently?
"Could it be...... This Du Gongzi is not an ordinary person? ”
Especially in combination with what Xu Zhiyan said before, I feel more and more that Du Bai is quite extraordinary.
Being able to confront a high-ranking official family like the Fan family with his own strength, and he is also at ease, not to mention that his knowledge is far beyond others, either he reads ancient and modern books, or he has traveled to many places and has many experiences, both of which are extraordinary and worthy of admiration.
And......
The Su family has also produced extremely precious glass that no one in the world can make, each of which is of great value and has a lot of potential.
At this time, after Xu Lao's admiration, the six princes already had some ideas in their hearts.
Since I am already optimistic, it is better to take this opportunity to give some help. It's always better to send charcoal in the snow than to put the icing on the cake.
He thought about it and said: "It seems that Du Gongzi is indeed a strange person, but it's a pity that my return is imminent, and it may not be able to have a deep friendship with him, which is also a pity." However, about the glass of the Su family, after I go back this time, I will pay more attention to it. ”
After a pause, he smiled and said: "This Su family's glass is indeed a rare treasure in the world, and it is a ingenious thing. I'm afraid that even if I didn't have to do it, I would have been famous all over the world with a little more time, and now I'm just doing a small favor. ”
Xu Zhiyan's face was overjoyed, and he thanked: "Then I will thank His Royal Highness for Brother Du!" ”
He understood very well that although the prince was more modest, the meaning of the two was completely different. Especially in the current environment, the status of businessmen is not high, and the casual words of a petty official with sesame mung beans may make everything come to naught.
Not to mention that after the tree moves the wind, I don't know what kind of demons and monsters will appear. For example, the Fan family will never be the last case.
But if there is the help of the prince, then anyone who wants to move will have to weigh his own weight. After all, even if this prince is not the heir to the throne, he is also the blood of the royal family.
The two talked for a long time at night, walking and stopping, and did not stop until the sixth prince felt tired and his legs and feet were a little sore, and Xu Zhiyan also said goodbye and left after that, at this time the night was already dark.
The next day, Xu Zhiyan came to Su's house to talk to Du Bai about the matter, which could be regarded as informing him of the good news.
Du Bai was surprised that the sixth prince was going to leave so soon, and secondly, he was also a little relieved, if the other party could really contribute some strength to Liuli's affairs, it would not be in vain that he spent his energy to heal the other party's legs.
Subsequently, Xu Zhiyan talked about the movement on the edge of the West Lake today.
"Sure enough, what I said yesterday was right, there will be a lot of construction on the edge of the West Lake today, and I am afraid that the beautiful scenery of the West Lake will not have a chance to be enjoyed in a short period of time." He said with some emotion, but he could see that he was still a little happy.
"West Lake is building a lot of buildings? What's going on? Du Bai was also interested when he heard this, and asked curiously.
"It should be the thing that the prince of Qincha Li proposed is to let the prefect organize the construction of the embankment. This process may take several years, but if it is done well, maybe the people of Lin'an will be blessed again! ”
Xu Zhiyan said, and did not forget to add: "By the way, there is also a dragon king temple built to worship the dragon king of the West Lake, praying for good weather and ...... rain."
The former is important, but the dragon king of the latter is the real reason, and it is also the highlight of this time.
It is precisely because of the existence of the dragon king in this West Lake that everyone hopes to be protected, and they are afraid of offending the gods, so they naturally praise and support the repair of the dragon king temple, and there will be no resistance to the construction of the embankment.
It is almost as possible to predict that in order to occupy a good ranking in this construction activity and to leave a good impression on the Dragon King, those originally very stingy families will definitely rush to donate a lot of money one by one!
It is not impossible to even take part of the project on its own initiative.
At this time, if anyone doesn't let them donate, it is estimated that they will be considered to have a grudge!
Who would be willing to be left behind? Not to mention this opportunity to curry favor with the Dragon King.
Here, especially those who have done something bad on weekdays and are panicking, will spare no effort.
Thinking of this, Du Bai's heart suddenly moved, as if he had guessed the deep plot, and he couldn't help but admire the resourcefulness of the sixth prince.
The construction of the embankment this time can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
First, it can express its gratitude to the Dragon King, and secondly, the construction of the embankment can get twice the result with half the effort, and the effect is obvious.
You must know that on weekdays, such as the thankless task of building a dam under the auspices of the government, there will be no shortage of donations to be raised.
And those big families are afraid to avoid it, for fear that they will have to pay for it, it is like trying to rip off a piece of meat from them, and they are so distressed!
In the end, it is good if the result can be completed on time, and it is not uncommon to cut corners.
But if it is built in the name of the Dragon King this time, as mentioned above, the result is absolutely extraordinary!
If the embankment can really be built in this way in the end, then although there is indeed some careful thinking about using the Dragon King, it is understandable, and it is also very beneficial to the people of Lin'an, and it is definitely a great achievement!
"I didn't expect that my casual performance would have such a result, it should really be regarded as an unexpected joy."
Du Bai nodded secretly, and had a new understanding of the strategy of the six princes.
Xu Zhiyan looked quite happy, obviously thinking of this layer, and was glad that this good opportunity was made.
After he left, Du Bai thought about it in his heart, returned to his room and then went out of his mind, planning to go to the West Lake to see the movement in person.
This time, it can be regarded as his unintentional insertion of willows and willows, and even if he has contributed to a good deed, he naturally wants to witness it with his own eyes.
If it is indeed effective, then he may not mind acting in another play, that is, appearing again as the Dragon King, "rewarding and rewarding" these people who have contributed money and efforts.
It also made those big families more willing to contribute to the cause of building the dam.
By the way, he himself can also harvest another wave of sentient beings' wishing power, although it may not be a lot, but why not?
It was afternoon, and there was still some time before the evening, and there were already many green men gathered on the edge of the West Lake, and there were already a lot of sand and stones piled up on the ground.
A few officials were pointing and drawing nearby, presumably discussing the approximate location.
It seems that the efficiency of the government is still good, and the project has begun to be prepared in just one day.
However, in fact, the matter of the embankment still needs to wait for those families who are "big fat sheep" to raise money, and there are still many links in it, so the main thing to do in the past few days is actually to repair the Dragon King Temple.
The manpower and material resources required for this matter are small, and the government can solve it by itself.
