280 - Moving
In the official system of Sui Yang, the official Du Wei is not big, but not small.
Compared with those purple-clothed nobles in the capital, this lieutenant is naturally small, but if you want to compare with the local government, this official is big.
The rank is more than two thousand stones, from the five-grade official position.
Moreover, the empress's appointment to Wang Xiaolai as the governor of Longshou County is equivalent to handing over the military strength of the entire Longshou County to Wang Xiaolai.
This is equivalent to Wang Xiaolai turning around and becoming the military governor of Longshou County.
To be honest, this place in Longshou County, Wang Xiaolai is not the first time to come, the last time, or with Suizhu, King Guangling came to visit the snow scene, came into the territory under the jurisdiction of Longshou County.
And it was also at that time that I met Feng Qingyun, who lived at the foot of Feilong Mountain.
Speaking of which, I don't know how he's doing now.
On the straight official road, Wang Xiaolai drove forward in a carriage, and on both sides of the carriage were two escort teams of about 100 people, both of whom were trained by Xian Jingyu in the refugee settlement. From the 100-person escort team set by Wang Xiaolai at the beginning, to now, there are 500 people, of which more than half are sent to various shops in Foxconn to be responsible for the safety and security of the shops.
It is equivalent to saying that this team has become a military armed force under Wang Xiaolai, and the empress who knows about this matter also opens one eye and closes one eye, so she doesn't bother to ask at all.
After all, the big businessmen in Sui Yang have more or less armed forces under them, which has become an unwritten rule.
As we all know, King Guangling, the biggest merchant in Suiyang, has no less than 3,000 personal guards under his command, could it be that the empress will go to check King Guangling for this matter?
Don't be kidding, those people in the family are all going through the formal procedures, and they all have recruitment certificates.
In comparison, Wang Xiaolai's team of 500 people is really not much.
"I said, my lord, why did Your Majesty put you in Longshou County, is it because of the last time you burned the barracks?"
Shen Xiping, who was walking and following on horseback by the carriage, asked.
Because he was dismissed by the empress and seized office, Shen Xiping, who was idle at home, had nothing to do, and Shen's mother was afraid that Shen Xiping would cause trouble at home, so she entrusted Shen Xiping to Wang Xiaolai and asked Wang Xiaolai to discipline Shen Xiping.
No, let's talk about it, it happened that Wang Xiaolai was about to be transferred out of Daxing City and to Longshou County, and Shen Xiping hurriedly followed.
Wang Xiaolai, who had studied hot air balloons and gunpowder on the empress's secret order, didn't tell Shen Xiping the truth, turned his head to look at him, and pretended to be angry: "I know you still ask." ”
Shen Xiping smiled: "My lord, I have to say, you are really blessed with a great life, such a big crime as burning the barracks, resting on others, you have already cut off your head several times, you are good, but you were also promoted and became a captain." ”
Wang Xiaolai sighed: "If you don't accept it, you will burn one." ”
Shen Xiping smiled and waved his hand: "No, no, I don't have that much ability." ”
The two talked and laughed, but they didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all.
"Speaking of which, my lord, what's the matter with those secret guards?"
Smiling, Shen Xiping suddenly approached Wang Xiaolai, stretched out his hand and pointed to the five secret guards sent by the empress not far away, such as Lily Yantong and others.
After all, he has been the chief of the internal guard, and he has also spent a lot of time in the palace, and Shen Xiping still knows a few of the secret guards.
"What's the matter, it's just to spy on me."
Shen Xiping smacked his tongue: "Obediently, what does Your Majesty mean by this, didn't you kick you out of Daxing City, my lord." ”
"Maybe it's because I'm too lonely to be alone, so send me a few beauties."
Shen Xiping: "···"
Shu Jiuchai and Hongxiang sitting in the emotional car are not women, right?
"My lord, I've already entered Longshou County in front."
Xian Jingyu, who opened the road in front of the car, turned back and hugged his fist in front of him.
Wang Xiaolai hummed, signaled him to investigate again, and then opened the curtain of the car behind him, in addition to Shu Jiuchai and Hongxiang, there was also Hou Selei with a big head, who was holding the account book at this time, muttering constantly, and he was already sparse in hair, and he kept grabbing it with his hands.
"Old wait, don't look at it yet, it's almost there."
Hou Sele raised his head blankly: "Huh? ”
Wang Xiaolai pursed his lips and snatched the ledger back from Hou Selei's hands.
The latter was annoyed: "What are you doing, my lord! Do you know how much silver we're going to lose these days to bring me out? ”
Wang Xiaolai waved his hand with a smile: "Eliminate your anger and eliminate your anger, I'm not afraid that you will be depressed, so I will take you out to relax." ”
Hou Selei hugged his arms and snorted: "Come on, my lord, don't fool me, I will be so easy to deceive?" ”
Wang Xiaolai: "···"
really let Hou Selei guess correctly, Wang Xiaolai brought Hou Selei out this time, and he did have his own ideas.
And not only brought out Hou Selei, but also Xian Jingyu, Shu Jiuchai, and Hongxiang, which are the backbone of his subordinates, were all brought out together.
These people followed Wang Xiaolai into Longshou County, and the main purpose was to change the headquarters of the paper mill to another location.
Previously, he hurriedly placed the paper mill in the refugee resettlement place, mainly because he would not have an accurate place to settle, this time, he was thrown by the empress to Longshou County to study gunpowder and hot air balloons, it must be a short period of time, in this way, he can rest assured to do it boldly, not to mention, Longshou County is surrounded by mountains, many trees, and more lime, which will be more beneficial to the development of the paper mill, and the most important thing is that the refugee resettlement place is to put it bluntly, it is an ordinary urban and rural resettlement place, not even a city wall, It's hard to give people a sense of security.
Moving the headquarters to Longshou County, Wang Xiaolai was also more at ease.
Walking on the official road, I saw a group of local officials waiting on the side of the road.
Liu Taizhen, the county guard of Longshou County, had already waited for a long time with the officials of his various departments.
As early as a few days ago, they received the news that they were going to parachute a lieutenant from Daxing City.
No, Mrs. Liu really brought someone to wait early.
In fact, to be honest, if it was an ordinary lieutenant or something, Liu Taizhen would not be too lazy to take people out of Longshou County so far to greet him, after all, the lieutenant is an official position from the fifth grade, and as a county guard, he is also from the official position of the fifth grade, all of them are the same, why, he still has to sell face and be low?
The main reason that drove him to come to greet him was because Liu Taizhen didn't know where to inquire about the news, that is, this new Du Wei is not simple, in addition to being a confidant of a celebrity in front of the Son of Heaven like Fengche Du Wei, more importantly, this new Wang Du Wei is the big boss of the Foxconn Chamber of Commerce who has recently risen in Suiyang.
This is a gold owner, as poor as Longshou County, how long has it been, and almost every household can't do without the straw paper used by Wang Xiaolai Chamber of Commerce.
As a far-sighted civil official, Liu Taizhen knows what Wang Xiaolai's arrival means.
So much so that he encouraged hundreds of people to welcome them along the official road.
"Yo, it's very lively, playing drums and flutes." Wang Xiaolai saw the situation on the official road in front of him and smiled at that time.
Shen Xiping was disdainful: "This Longshou County is shabby, far worse than Daxing City." ”
Wang Xiaolai smiled: "Shabby is shabby, just have little attention." ”
After getting out of the car and coming to the front, Wang Xiaolai looked around, he didn't know who was the county guard Liu Taizhen, after all, this kid didn't know the rank of Sui Yang's official uniform, he only knew that the most bullish officials were wearing purple robes.
But Liu Taizhen, as an official from the fifth grade, died to death, that is, a crimson official robe, and those subordinates from the sixth rank below him were all dressed the same as him, and Wang Xiaolai would not look at the official uniform, how could he know who was big and who was small.
Just when Wang Xiaolai was wondering, Liu Taizhen walked out and arched his hand: "Liu Taizhen, the county guard of Longshou County, led the people to greet the captain, this little brother, please inform General Wang." ”
Du Wei is the military attache of Sui Yang Zheng'er, so Wang Xiaolai's title has also changed from an adult to a general.
Mrs. Liu called it like this, Wang Xiaolai was speechless and stunned in place, and said in his heart, "Am I not like a captain like this?" Isn't it just that he didn't wear an official robe?
"That Brother Liu, I am Wang Xiaolai, the new captain." Wang Xiaolai said speechlessly.
Liu Taizhen: "···"
The men behind him too: "...
