0125 Deal Closed
Wen Yi did not go directly to Jin'an County, but went back to Langhu Lake first.
First, I haven't seen Xie Daoyun for a long time, and I miss it a lot; Second, it was time to relocate some of the workshops to Dongning Island.
Xie Daoyun's due date is at the end of August and the beginning of September, and there are only two months left when it is full. It's inconvenient to do anything with a big belly, and she no longer manages many things directly.
Fortunately, the situation in Langhu is very stable, everything is going according to plan, and few things happen, otherwise it would be difficult for her to rest.
After Wen Yi came back, he accompanied her and handled official business.
The porcelain workshop must have split up some people to go to the island, not to mention anything else, and he can only rest assured that the glass is made on Dongning Island.
Paper-making workshops, iron-striking workshops, etc., all have to open branches there.
It's just that there is no iron ore on Dongning Island, and there is no way for the iron-smelting workshop to migrate to the past, and Langhu will be his only source of steel for a long time in the future.
However, the reserves of more than 20 million tons are enough for him to use for many years. And he knows where there are large iron mines, and when he has a firm foothold on Yizhou Island, he has plenty of time to occupy and develop.
It is not difficult to say that the separation and migration of the workshop is not difficult, mainly trivial, and it took seven or eight days to prepare for the migration.
Someone else is responsible for the rest of the matter, and he doesn't have to worry about it.
So he boarded the boat to Jin'an County under Xie Daoyun's reluctant gaze.
Du Zigong, who was already crazy, couldn't care about his image, and came directly to the dock to block people.
Wen Yi had just gotten off the boat and was chatting with Xiao Baishan and the others who greeted him, when he saw Du Zigong trotting over from a distance.
He was overjoyed that the fish had finally bitten the hook.
However, he was not in a hurry, and pretended to greet Du Zigong as if nothing happened.
Du Zigong couldn't talk about business in front of so many people, so he could only do it in a hurry, looking forward to the others leaving quickly.
It's just that this is impossible, Wen Yi hasn't come back for two months, and many things are waiting for him to deal with, Xiao Baishan and the others chatted until the afternoon before leaving.
After waiting for such a long time, Du Zigong also understood that Wen Yi was deliberately boiling him, and he had no means to counteract.
So when Wen Yi was free, he didn't try to pull, and went straight to the point: "Mr. Wen, I know what you want." ”
"I can promise you that I will give you some help on your way to becoming the king of Lingnan, and I can also use the power of the Five Doumi Sect to help you mediate when you negotiate with the imperial court in the future."
"But I need your full understanding of religion, to help me reform the teachings of the Five Doumi Sect, and to allow us to preach in Lingnan in the future."
Wen Yi was very puzzled, what Lingnan King? When did I say that I became the king of Lingnan?
But he immediately guessed the reason, and he could only complain: good brain.
Originally, he was worried about how to explain his actions, not everyone was willing to rebel, and there were many people who were loyal to the court.
Even if they supported the rebellion, almost no one would be optimistic about him, a poor boy whose ancestors were the head of Qianqian for eighteen generations.
It is impossible for Du Zigong to sell him at a critical moment in exchange for the trust of the imperial court.
Now this misunderstanding is good.
I did all this to be a soil overlord in Lingnan.
You can borrow Du Zigong's strength, but you don't have to worry about him betraying himself.
Even if Du Zigong wanted to betray him, it was estimated that the imperial court would not take it to heart.
First, no one will believe that he, a person from exile background, has this ability; Erlingnan is not a local magnate in his eyes, as long as you don't rebel, you can just toss around.
It's not that the imperial court really doesn't want to care, but it doesn't have the ability. In this case, they wish that Lingnan would come up with a-stirring stick to make the situation here more chaotic.
Thinking of this, Wen Yi immediately put on a shocked look, and then said with an uncomfortable face: "What Lingnan King, Sect Master Du is making fun of me?" ”
In Du Zigong's opinion, his abnormality was deliberately concealed, which made him more sure of his guess:
"We Mingren don't say secret words, everyone can see what you do, and you can't deceive the clear-eyed people."
"Today I came to discuss this deal with Mr. Wen with sincerity...... If you don't want to talk about it, I'll turn around and leave, and never talk about it again. ”
A hint of panic appeared in Wen Yi's expression, and then he fell into deep thought, his face changed and he kept struggling with something in his heart.
After a long time, he seemed to have figured out something, his expression became firm, and he said, "How can I trust you?" ”
Du Zigong was overjoyed, but there was no trace on his face, and said, "What do you want me to do to believe me?" Write a note or swear to God? ”
Wen Yi muttered: "Forget the notes, I want you to swear by your Dao heart and faith." ”
Du Zigong said without hesitation: "I swear to Lao Jun and the ancestors of the Five Bucket Rice Sect that if Mr. Wen is willing to help me the Five Bucket Rice Sect prosper......"
Wen Yi interrupted him and said, "It's not to help your Wudou Rice Sect prosper, but to tell you some of the knowledge I know about religion." ”
The difference between the two is very big, if you really follow the oath of the former, won't you become the protector of the Five Doumi Sect.
And how to evaluate that prosperity? In whose hands is the standard?
This kind of oath is actually similar to nothing, and it is too easy to be bypassed.
Maybe Du Zigong doesn't have this idea, but when it comes to the life and death of countless people, he has to be cautious.
Du Zigong paused for a moment, and made a vow again: Wen Yi taught him knowledge, and he provided help to Wen Yi, such as breaking the oath and breaking the inheritance of the Five Dou Mi Sect.
For a devout religious head, this oath is more serious than letting himself die a bad death.
Once we had a basis for cooperation, we began to discuss how to make a deal.
What does Wen Yi need to pay, and what does the Five Dou Mi Sect need to do.
"I'll only give you one month, and in the next month, I'll tell you what I think I can tell you, and help you refine the teachings of the Five Doumi Sect."
"In my sphere of influence, I can give you the right to preach freely in the Five Doumi Sect, but there are preconditions."
"First, you must obey my law, and anyone who does not obey my law will be regarded as a crooked way. Second, your teachings must be vetted by me, and can only be disseminated if I approve them......"
Du Zigong frowned when he heard this, especially when he only helped him for a month, he had a big opinion: "If I have a problem after the expiration of a month, I can ask you for advice at any time, you can't refuse." ”
Wen Yi categorically refused: "Impossible, just one month, everything depends on my mood after a month......"
"Don't worry, I won't deliberately delay time. Whatever can be told to you will be told to you, and what can't be told will be useless. ”
Seeing his resolute attitude, Du Zigong could only agree: "Okay, then what do you need my Wudou Mi Sect to do for you?" ”
