"How many concessions do you think they can accept?" Ye Yongjia was flipping through the official documents sent by the Zhongshu Province in front of the desk, suddenly raised his eyes to look at Wu Sijing, and then looked at Cai Xianqing who was standing aside.

"What do you dare to care about now?" Wu Sijing lowered his hands and looked pitiful, "Niu Fengxiang can let them go ashore to set up a factory, which is a great gift." ”

"Bishop Wu is just a person who does things for them, but he seems to be so attentive, and he really values love and righteousness." Cai Xianqing sneered coldly.

"Alas, Cai Lao ......" Ye Yongjia hurriedly grabbed his arm.

Wu Sijing didn't defend himself, and still said with his head stuffy: "I was entrusted by my old friends, so I worked hard to help Ye Gong, how dare I have different intentions?" Besides, all the merchants are eagerly looking forward to each other in Beitang, and if they return with a vacuum, they will not trust me in the future. These words are all heartfelt words, Cai Shilang is willing to listen to them, and Wu has a clear conscience anyway. ”

Cai Xianqing saw that he was clear and sincere, and he no longer had words.

"Really...... Didn't ask for it? Ye Yongjia saw that the quarrel was over, so he continued to ask.

"Hmm......" Bishop Wu pondered for a long time and smacked his lips, "Forget it." You write the content of the article first, and then give it to me to read. ”

"Okay, then the gentleman will wait for me." Ye Yongjia happily agreed, took a pen from the pen stand, spread out the white paper, and wrote quickly, seeing that the missing engraving had not passed half an hour, and it had been written.

"Mr. Wang's pointers." Ye Yongjia stood up, pulled the chair, and motioned for him to sit down, but the latter showed humility, just borrowed a pair of glasses, supported the table with both hands, and lowered his head to look.

"Probably good," he said, taking off his glasses and putting them back on the bookcase, "but there's something debatable." For example, the section on transporting raw materials needs to be explained in detail. ”

"Won't they be able to afford it?" Ye Yongjia asked.

"I talked to them the night before I left, and those four hope that the imperial court can help a little and make less effort, otherwise business will be difficult."

Ye Yongjia and Cai Xianqing looked at each other and replied, "This should be fine." The imperial court was able to rent a few merchant ships from Fuguang and transport them by sea. ”

"It's best to write down the specific amount, so that they don't take advantage of loopholes to blackmail the court's money."

"Also," Wu Sijing continued, "there is no rule on how much power these merchants can exercise in the interior, and your Excellency should also take this opportunity to ask the imperial court about its attitude." ”

Ye Yongjia only nodded frequently at this time, and praised his opinion: "Mr. has arranged everything so thoroughly, I am ashamed of myself as a courtier!" ”

Wu Sijing smiled politely and said a few words of 'how dare you'.

"Is there anything else you can say, sir?"

"No ......" Before he could fully say this, he suddenly rolled his eyes, his eyebrows moved, and he suddenly changed his words, "Yes, yes!" The location of this gun factory has not yet been decided, and adults should consider it carefully. ”

"Bishop, you're in too much of a hurry," Cai Xianqing replied before Ye Yongjia, "The province has not approved the case of making a special case, let alone this matter?" It's too early to talk about the question of location. ”

Wu Sijing didn't expect that this scheming guy had been paying attention to their conversation, he was extremely remorseful for his negligence, and at the same time, his hatred for Cai Xianqing deepened again, he couldn't even hide the expression on his face, looking at the enemy as if he was staring at the soldier.

Fortunately, Ye Yongjia had been impressed by his plan, and he was not a little wary, and then said: "The so-called precautions are the most needed things for the implementation of national politics. It's always a good idea to plan ahead. What is the bishop's opinion on this? ”

Wu Sijing lowered his hand and bowed deeply: "Lord Ye is like a god, and he is just adding color to it, how can he discuss national politics in vain!" This matter needs to be discussed carefully with the imperial court, and I came to Beijing in the name of the envoy, so it is inconvenient to say more. ”

"If the bishop is not tired, he can go back to Beitang and discuss this matter with Fanshang, I will ask for a ban here, take care of both sides, settle things as soon as possible, and buy time for Suidi."

Wu Sijing said: "With your instructions, how can Wu have a tired word in his heart!" I set off immediately. ”

Ye Yongjia was greatly moved, and respectfully bowed to him: "Then ...... There is Mr. Law. With that, he sent two clerks to escort Wu Sijing out of the palace.

"Tinglong," Cai Xianqing sighed behind him, "This Wu Sijing is treacherous, he had the intention of killing you last time, and this time he suddenly mentioned the matter of choosing a location, obviously wanting to profit for himself." Let him go back, he will inevitably incite Fanshang to collude! ”

"And where do you say he's going to go?"

"Needless to say? Beitang, of course! It has almost become his territory, and if he sets up a firearms factory there, he may cause some trouble! Cai Xianqing looked at him disapprovingly and was quite resentful.

"We don't need to mention this first," Ye Yongjia smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "I also want to ask you how you came back from Suidi." ”

"You haven't been back to the town for several days, and Du Dudu knows that things are complicated, and says that you can't leave my left and right arms, so you can persuade me to come back."

"That's why I didn't listen to Cai Lao's right-hand man, so I was born so atmospheric?" Ye Yongjia said with a smile.

"You still don't take the old man's words seriously," Cai Xianqing was a little angry, "Do you dare to bet?" ”

"What bet?" Ye Yongjia asked blankly.

"Bet on myself!" Cai Xianqing patted his chest, "If he Wu Sijing doesn't set up the factory in Beitang, I will pick the skin of this military department and go back to Qinhuai to be a play!" ”

The next day, Ye Yongjia finally revised the recital, and according to Wu Sijing's requirements, he wrote everything he could write on the paper. Niu Yuan was very satisfied, so he asked Ye Yongjia to go to Zhongshu Province to answer.

"You are thorough in all aspects of this recital, you can transcribe the important content and make a note with the fanren," Niu Yuan looked at the recital and smiled all over his face, "As for the location you mentioned at the end, I will send someone to deal with them." Is that Wu Sijing gone? ”

"Left, but he completely agreed with the opinion of the lower official and said that I could sign on his behalf."

"Okay, if this is done, it will be your great achievement," Niu Yuanxuan pressed the book on the table, "sign it." ”

"The whole province of Zhongshu agreed?" Ye Yongjia actually felt that it was too smooth.

"It's not in the way, these businessmen can't turn the sky, I'm guilty of it." After Niu Yuan said it lightly, he motioned for him to sign it quickly.

Ye Yongjia no longer hesitated, and wrote a few neat brush words in the blank space of the document - these few strokes already represented the real beginning of the New Deal.
