Wang Xuan finally stopped tapping his fingers on the table, looked Cui Yan up and down, and suddenly smiled: "I think that your Cui family can't help much in the matter of opening up the territory in the north, and it's not worth letting go of the Cui family." ”

This sentence was like a slap on the head, and Cui Yan was stunned on the spot, his heart seemed to be pressed against a 10,000-ton boulder, and even breathing became more and more difficult, his eyes were black for a while, and the blood in his whole body seemed to begin to flow backwards, standing in place, his body kept shaking, as if he was going to fall to the ground at any time.

It's no wonder that Cui Yan doesn't have the style of a general, and one sentence made Wang Xuan lose his temper in fright, after all, the life and death of the entire family are pressed on this sentence, so he can't afford not to pay attention to it.

What to do?

Countless thoughts crossed Cui Yan's mind, but there was no way to solve the crisis in front of him, at this moment, he deeply realized the feeling of being a man and a sword, and at this moment he understood how fragile these warriors who seemed to control the fate of the world were when the central government was in power.

Kept taking deep breaths and forcing himself to calm down, suppressed emotions, anger, frustration, complaining and so on could not play any role at this moment, raising his head, his eyes were focused on Wang Xuan's face, he must find a breakthrough.

Gradually, he found that although Wang Xuan had no smile on his face, there was no killing intent in his eyes, which made his chaotic mind slightly clear, does this mean that in fact, Wang Xuan didn't want to kill their whole family,

"Prince, but there are orders, my Cui family will do their best and never shirk!" Cui Yan bowed to the end again, this time he really surrendered wholeheartedly from his body to his soul, and his subconscious of resistance was gone.

"Hehe, I hope your Cui family can do what they say." Wang Xuan said in a salty voice, "Get up, I have other arrangements for your Cui family." ”

Exhale~Breath~, Cui Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, and suddenly felt as if his body had been hollowed out, his steps were a little staggering, and when he relaxed, he found that his clothes were soaked with sweat just now, and he walked to the chair and sat down, feeling a little paralyzed all over his body.

"You don't have to go north, I want you to go south."

"Go south!?" Cui Yan slammed it hard, isn't going south to Cao Cao's side? This...... For a while, he couldn't figure out what Wang Xuan's idea was.

Is it to test yourself? Cui Yan glanced at Wang Xuan with some uncertainty, "Did the prince say that he was joking, my Cui family has no such intention, everything is based on the prince." ”

"That's it!" Wang Xuan raised his hand to stop Cui Yan from continuing, "It's only Xuande's horse who is looking forward, and besides, I didn't make any jokes with you, I just want you to go south and go to Jingnan." ”

Jing Nan?

Cui Yan's eyes widened, and for a while he really couldn't figure out what Wang Xuan's idea was.

Wang Xuan silently took out a map from his chest again, everyone was a little numb to Wang Xuan's behavior of always being able to pull out all kinds of unbelievable things from his chest, although he didn't know why, but, whatever.

The map is spread out, it is a map of Jingzhou, in terms of detail, it is only seen in Cui Yan's life, but it is ...... Why does Wang Xuan have such a detailed map of Jiangnan in his hand?

This reminded him of a rumor, Wang Xuan began to lay out the whole world four years ago, preparing for the future sweep of the world, although there is no personal confirmation of its authenticity, but, when he saw such a detailed map, Cui Yan believed eight points, he was very skeptical, as a pastor of Jingzhou, Liu Biao has such a detailed map in his hand!

Wang Xuan didn't care what kind of mental activities Cui Yan had experienced in his heart, but pointed to the downstream of the confluence of Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River, where to go to Yueyang City and said: "Here, it is very suitable for city construction and development, I want your Cui family to go here to take root." ”

Yes? Cui Yan looked at Wang Xuan with a bewildered expression, I, the Cui family, Jiancheng?

Are you sure that the word Jiancheng can be associated with my Cui family?

Don't talk about my Cui family, even if you unite two or three more families, you don't dare to mention the construction of a city, not to mention whether you have the courage to build, the key is that there is not so much money, these cities of the whole Han Dynasty, that is not passed down from generation to generation, a brand new city, and it has not been built for decades!

"Ahh Wang Xuan frowned and glanced at Cui Yan, "It's just a city to build, what's all the fuss!" ”

"......" Cui Yan opened his mouth and didn't know how to refute for a while.

"Now the newly built city in Changshan is not big, according to the plan, the big city that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, according to the current progress, it will be completed in half a year, and you are not asked to build any big city, what are you doing in a surprise."

Cui Yan reacted at this time, as if after the man in front of him appeared, it suddenly became easy to build a city or something, so he suddenly thought of the problem ......of going north, with such a fast construction speed, and really build a few cities at several key points in the grassland, then, it is really not a big problem to take the grassland.

A large part of the reason why the Han people have been untenable on the grassland is that there are not enough cities to form a chain-type defense posture, and a single lonely city is useless, and in that place of the grassland, it is extremely difficult to build a city, and the development is not proportional to the benefits, which has been occupied by the grassland people.

"The lower officials understand this, but ...... My Cui family doesn't have the talent and ability to do this. Saying this, Cui Yan couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

Generally speaking, these wealthy families will form a small self-owned economic system, based on several estates, from grain to cloth to some other living materials, forming a closed and self-sufficient small circle, it can be said that there are talents in all aspects, and it has always been something that the wealthy families are more proud of, but now Wang Xuan's requirements are some too high-end.

"Go back and transfer some people, I will arrange people to conduct professional training for them, this is not a big problem, including architectural design drawings and the like will be prepared for you, to build a city combining fishery and agriculture, the reason why you want to build a city here, one is to explore the development of Jiangnan, and the other is that you need to establish a port here, take the waterway to communicate Nanyang, take the Yangtze River to sea, and communicate with Qingyou."

"Makema?" Cui Yan's eyes suddenly widened and looked at Wang Xuan, isn't this bad for their Cui family's reputation!

Cui Yan wanted to refuse, but when he looked up and saw Wang Xuan's emotionless gaze, the words that came to his mouth were held back again, let's deal with it like this first, and then talk about it after the difficulties in front of him, if he really arrives in Jiangnan, Wang Xuan will be beyond his reach.

"It's not a matter of doing anything, it's thousands of miles away, and I don't expect you to do your best."

Just as Cui Yan was drawing Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, Wang Xuan suddenly said.

"How to develop, how to develop, even if you really need to do something, it depends on your personal wishes, in my opinion, the exchange of interests is more reliable than the so-called loyalty, you say yes." A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Wang Xuan's mouth, "At least, when you make any mistakes, I can deal with them without hesitation without any psychological burden, after all, loyalty is mutual, and it is easy to deal with it when the time comes." ”

After Wang Xuan finished speaking, Cui Yan's face turned pale, and he opened his mouth to refute something, but he didn't know how to speak, it was really difficult for a huge family to be completely loyal to anyone, so he didn't have to think about getting cover when something happened.
