The auspiciousness of the mascot Chapter 66 The return to the royal capital
In the past two days, Wang Xuan is preparing for the north, and he has two things to do, pick people and things.
The trip was nominally a family visit, but in fact it was a private meeting with the second prince, and at the same time, intelligence officers were inserted into all walks of life through various foreign bases.
The four guards were very selective, the first in heart and the second in skill, and they were completed in half a day, but the intelligence officers made a difficulty.
These people will be produced from the internal guard, and they are heartfelt, agile, all-round, and adaptable, and they are the most elite army in Jixiang.
But there is a glaring loophole, which is that it is young, with an average age of less than thirty, which limits the disguised profession that can be engaged.
People in their twenties can't pretend to be great Confucian scholars, if that's the case, it's not covering, it's death.
To engage in this industry, you must have excellent psychological quality, not be surprised by changes, be flexible, and the ability to complete tasks perfectly in a high-pressure environment is a necessary skill.
At the same time, it is required to have a mediocre appearance and figure, to be able to quickly hide in the crowd, and there are not many memorable features.
According to these requirements, Wang Xuan singled out sixteen people, and they lined up in two horizontal lines, each with their chests straightened and their heads held high, and it could be seen from their expressions that they were very excited at this time.
But in Wang Xuan's view, spies don't need to hold their heads high, don't need to straighten their chests, and don't need to be excited, what they need is calm, calm and calm.
Unfortunately, this batch of sixteen people was eliminated and the selection began again.
After three rounds, there were only six people still standing in front of Wang Xuan, and they had a lot in common, such as their unsightly appearance, such as their physical skills, and their ordinary figure and even some obesity.
But Wang Xuan is sure that these "eliminated products" are the "qualified products" he needs.
The eliminators used various expressions and subtle body language to express their inner dissatisfaction, but Wang Xuan's words made them ashamed.
"As a soldier, you have to stand up to the sky, hold your head high, look at the world, and look at the world, but as a spy, you want to be hidden in the city, and you want to be ordinary in the ordinary. It is because the ants are so ordinary and ordinary that no one pays attention to them or studies them, so that they have enough time to complete a great cause, and under the noses of the people, they forcibly collapse the embankment, although they did not intend to do so. What we need is people like ants. ”
Wang Xuan tried his best to look into the eyes of each guard, these were talents, and they had the right to a reasonable explanation.
"There is a precedence in hearing the Tao, there is a specialization in the arts, ants have the advantages of ants, and birds also have the strengths of birds. Not being selected does not mean that you are not good, it just means that you are not suitable for this profession, and the selection does not mean how outstanding you are, but that you are very suitable for this profession compared to others. Don't compare your own shortcomings with the strengths of others, it's not a problem of ability, but a problem with your brain. ”
After some words, everyone calmed down a lot, Wang Xuan left six people and announced that the others were disbanded, and he wanted to give these six people a two-day vacation and go home for reunion.
On the evening of the 30th, the dining hall.
"Hua'er, tomorrow Brother will go to see the preparations for the mining of cassiterite mine, and you will stay there for a few days, you must eat on time at home, and study well with Sister Zhu'er." ”
Wang Xuan didn't say that he would go to Great Xia, he didn't want to make any extraneous branches.
"Brother, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore, I'm studying every day, I don't believe you ask Sister Zhu'er!" The little girl turned her head to look at Zhu'er, eager to prove the truth of what she said.
Zhu'er is also very cooperative, and praised the flowers very much, saying that the young lady is smart and clever, and she reads and writes faster than ordinary people, which makes this little girl proud, and her tail is going to heaven.
"That's good, but you can't be proud, if you're bored, go to the eldest sister and second sister to play, don't run around alone, remember to take Ah Fu with you, the weather is getting colder, wear more ......"
"Got it, brother, you're really wordy. ”
"Hehe!" Wang Xuan smiled embarrassedly, so he had to turn his head and tell Zhu'er to go to Hua'er's bedroom at night to take a look, she loves to kick the quilt.
Zhu'er rubbed the vegetable juice from the corner of Wang Hua's mouth while crisply responding.
That night, Guo Wei, the head of the Guo family, visited the lord's mansion at night.
After a greeting of the monarchs and ministers, Guo Wei reported on the arrangements for the trip:
Set off early on the 31st, a total of six ships, Wang Xuan and his entourage followed the Guo family to buy a caravan to share one, this arrangement is also worried that after the people recognize Wang Xuan, there will be unexpected consequences, including Guo Wei came at night this time, and he was careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years.
After arriving on the other side of the lake, Wang Xuan and his entourage had to separate from the Guo family's caravan, so as not to be suspicious.
When they arrived on the other side, the Guo family caravan would leave two crew members behind, and the next day they would receive a cargo ship prepared by Jixiangling's No. 1 base abroad, dock at the ferry, and wait for Wang Xuan's instructions at any time.
There is nothing surprising about the whole plan, and because of this, Wang Xuan agreed to this plan, and the hidden personnel of the Ministry of Security have already moved, and the big movement cannot hide from the ears and eyes of these people.
Early the next morning, Wang Xuan accompanied his sister to have breakfast, and set off with ten assembled briquette stoves and a number of briquettes.
"I have thought about it, and the main general's subordinates stayed in order to hide people's eyes, but just like that, they can't stay!"
"Have you explained everything at home?" Wang Xuan didn't want to go against the wishes of others.
"There is no need to explain, just to accompany the Lord to go out to inspect for a few days. ”
"Get up, and if anyone else sees anything like, get on board!"
The wind and waves on the lake are a little big, fortunately Wang Xuan is not seasick, and as for the others, they don't have to worry, which water quality is not bad, let alone taking a boat.
Along the way, Wang Xuan chatted with the steward of the Guo family from time to time, the steward was a newcomer, perhaps it was deliberately arranged by Guo Wei, and he didn't seem to know Wang Xuan.
During the chat, I learned that the Guo family's trip was to buy heavy carriages, and the development of Hedong was in full swing, and they wanted to build a new Lotus Town, so they naturally had to prepare early.
"I heard that your owner has bought dozens of acres of wasteland in Lotus Town?"
Wang Xuan asked casually, also wanting to see how the Guo family's stewardship was.
"Childe is well-informed, the Guo family did buy twenty acres of wasteland in Lotus Town, near the Xingyao River, and planned to build a service center integrating warehousing and logistics, entertainment and leisure. ”
After that, he looked at Wang Xuan with a smile.
Wang Xuan, hehe, Zhile, this Guo family's steward is not simple, so he recognizes himself, Guo Wei has a good eye.
"Auspiciousness means that you need businessmen like your family master, the more the better. It is natural to make a fortune with your ability, and it is natural for the territory to give appropriate support, not only to contribute to the auspicious construction, but also to increase jobs and increase the income of the people.
The steward's face was already smiling into a flower, and he was busy waving his hand and said: "The son is falsely praised, falsely praised, if it is not for the master's great talent, how can auspiciousness change a new look in a year, in the final analysis, it is still auspicious to meet the master, and the people live and work in peace and contentment." ”
It's not that Wang Xuan is happy to listen to people pat himself on the back, it's really boring, and there are no pastime activities, so he can only have nothing to say, but this Guo family's steward is smart and tight, and the two can only play dumb riddles and have a good time.
Fortunately, during this period, Wang Xuan would also talk to the six "007s" from time to time about some professional knowledge, which he plagiarized from books, film and television dramas, and there are a lot of things that can be learned, which is better than nothing.
In this way, on the fourth day, they finally landed, and the person in charge of the No. 1 stronghold took Wang Xuan back, prepared boiling water and food, and everyone rested for a night.
The spies at the stronghold reported that everything was normal, so early the next morning, Wang Xuan and his party of fourteen people set off on the Cao Gang's boat.
In the evening, they arrived at the No. 3 stronghold, rested for another night, and on the evening of the third day, a group of thirteen people finally arrived at the royal capital.
On January 6, the fifth year of the Xia Yuan calendar, Wang Xuan and his party of 12 people stepped into the royal capital Xiazhou City.
This should be the second time Wang Xuan came to the royal capital, the first time was the old king won the world, when the celebration banquet was held, Wang Xuan followed his father and grandfather into the city to go to the banquet, and two days later the whole family moved to Jixiangling, and even the elders died and were buried in Jixiang, and did not return to Daxia.
After Xiao Liuzi received Wang Xuan, he reported the recent changes in the royal capital.
The auspicious collar has become the laughing stock of the upper class, and it must be mentioned at every meeting, and it is a reserved program for banquets.
Wang Xuan is happy to see it come to fruition, it is best to keep this show for ten or eight years, and then make a reserved program for a lifetime.
Now, the military power of Xia Zhou City has been mastered by the eldest prince, and the second prince can only hold the prince's guard to protect himself, and his life is very hard.
The second prince is not as sharp as the eldest prince, and the older prince is also more elegant and kind, so Shilin students are more interested in the second prince.
But the military prefers the character of the eldest prince, who is heroic and uninhibited, and will be retribution, which is why the eldest prince can suppress the second prince more than one.
Wang Xuancai doesn't care what kind of character he is, as long as he doesn't provoke me, he is a good character, so he asked Xiao Liuzi what other forces the second prince has in Xiazhou City.
Xiao Liuzi opened his mouth and said: "Back to the Lord, the biggest influence of the second prince in Xiazhou City is Shilin students, and the gentlemen and professors of the royal school are all towards the second prince, they are all over the world, and their secret influence should not be underestimated." ”
After thinking for a while, he said, "Shi Qian of the Ministry of Rites seems to have a good relationship with the second prince, although most of the territory is on the side of the eldest prince, but he will still secretly help the second prince one or two, and I don't know if it is a bet at both ends, but Shi Qian has indeed made a lot of efforts in it." ”
This is big news, the time migration? is the time migration that was handled by Zhang Yun with a set of tea sets, four sets of utensils, and two vases?
This person is interesting, is it inconsistent on the surface, betting on both ends, or is it a secret song, and there is another picture?
Wang Xuan realized that this person might be the breakthrough to break through the high-level of Great Xia!
