Chapter 522: Wei Guogong: I'm going to buy it
"Huh?"
Guo An, Zhu Di, and Zhu Gaochi all looked at Xu Huizu with surprise on their faces.
Guo An said with a sincere face: "Wei Guogong doesn't need to be so polite, a hundred carriages don't need to be advertised in the Di newspaper, and in less than a few months, they can be sold short!" ”
Xu Huizu took a deep breath, "The old man likes this kind of carriage, he must buy it, and I hope that Dinghai Hou Mo will stop it!" ”
"Wei Guogong has wronged me, I am happy that someone can buy a carriage, how can I ...... It's just that I'm worried that Wei Guogong is buying ...... on a whim."
As he spoke, seeing Xu Huizu's unkind eyes, Guo An hurriedly nodded.
"Please rest assured that I will definitely send one to Wei Guogong for the next batch of carriages made of steel plates!"
Xu Huizu's heart was relieved, "Thank you Dinghaihou!" ”
Guo An said again: "Eight hundred taels of treasure money, please also ask the Duke of Wei to ......"
Xu Huizu couldn't help but be annoyed, "Dinghai Hou rest assured, our Wei State Mansion is not short of those eight hundred taels of treasure money!" ”
"That's it!"
Guo An breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Huizu was angry again!
How is this like a dignified marquis?
For a little money, that's it...... However, if he had such a comfortable carriage, he would not have to ride a horse when he went to court in the winter!
On the side, Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi both glanced at Xu Huizu in unison, and a trace of strangeness flashed in their eyes.
There was no reminder.
It's just that Xu Huizu didn't find out.
This will, Xu Huizu's eyes are full of that carriage.
After returning to the house, Xu Huizu directly sent someone to send eight hundred taels of treasure money to the General's Mountain Carriage Workshop.
"Already delivered?"
Hearing the steward's report, Guo An, who had just returned to the house not long ago, was stunned for a moment, and nodded slowly.
"Just accept it, and then engrave the marks of the Wei State Mansion and the General Mountain Carriage Workshop on the tires and handlebars of the carriage, and the steel plate in the carriage should also be engraved!"
"Master Hou, the steel plate also needs to be engraved?"
The steward was stunned.
"Hmm!"
Guo An nodded and said, "In the future, every time one is sold, it will be engraved!" Moreover, the carriage made of steel plates is only available for reservation, payment is made first, the handwriting is engraved, and then it is manufactured! ”
"Yes, Master Hou!"
……
Two days later.
Guo Bingshan, Guo Pinglin and Guo Shi came to visit Guo An.
"I've seen Master Hou!"
"Seventh brother, tenth brother, Guo Shi, there is no need to be so polite, please sit down!"
"Thank you, Master Hou!"
Guo Bingshan, Guo Pinglin and Guo Shi thanked each other, and then slowly sat down.
In the past, when Guo An was the governor of King Yan's mansion, they were already very restrained.
Now, facing Guo An, they feel a pressure, so that they don't dare to make the slightest extra move.
The purpose of coming to the Haihou Mansion is to forget it completely.
After a while, Guo An couldn't help but smile helplessly, and asked slowly: "Seventh brother, tenth brother, and Guo Shi are all from their own family, so there is no need to be so restrained!"
Today, you have come to the house, but what is the matter? ”
Guo Bingshan, Guo Pinglin, and Guo Shi glanced at each other, and then hurriedly said: "Back to the Hou Ye, I am waiting for this time to come for the road construction team!" ”
"Road construction team, ah......"
Guo An suddenly understood, and chuckled: "But Your Majesty sent someone to look for you?" ”
"Exactly!"
Guo Bingshan said again: "However, it is not Your Majesty, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to inform me and others, and let me form a road construction team!" ”
Saying that, Guo Bingshan couldn't help but look worried, "Master Hou, we have always been doing the work of building houses and courtyards, and we haven't done much work to pave cement roads!"
Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly asked me to wait for the construction road team, isn't it ......?"
"Don't worry!"
Guo An smiled faintly, "It was Your Majesty who wanted to pave a cement straight road, so I recommended you to Your Majesty and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be in charge of this matter with me!" ”
"Even if you want to form a construction road team, the housing construction team is under your control...... It's just that you need to split up one or two people and form a construction road team...... Well, in fact, the road construction team and the housing construction team are similar, except that one is to build houses and the other is to pave cement ......roads."
"You are all great craftsmen, and you have all read the books of the sages, and you know the way of being an official.
You can contribute more to the construction of the Ming Dynasty, make contributions, and show your face in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows your ability!
In the future, you can always mix up an official and a half-job. However, we must also guard against impatience and arrogance......"
"Please rest assured that we will not disappoint Lord Hou's expectations!"
Guo Bingshan, Guo Pinglin, and Guo Shi suddenly said with gratitude on their faces.
"If only you knew what you knew!"
Guo An smiled faintly and continued: "The Guo family and the Liu family, as well as those relatives are too much, although I try my best to arrange a half-official position for the capable children in the family, but Daming is not only me, a marquis, there are countless honorable officials, at most, I can protect you without causing trouble, and don't let outsiders bully your own family, but if you want a good future, you have to work hard yourself!" ”
"Master Hou has already arranged too many arrangements for his nephews in the family!"
Guo Bingshan hurriedly said.
Guo Pinglin also said, "What the seventh brother said is that Hou Ye has helped too much, and the elders in the family are all reading about Hou Ye's goodness every day!" ”
Guo Shi also nodded again and again.
None of them meant anything flattering in this matter.
In their Guojia Village, being able to come out of such a child as Guo An is a blessing that the people of their Guojia Village have not been able to cultivate in several lifetimes.
When he was still the chief of the Yan Mansion, he had already let dozens of children of the Guo family who had no way to enter the Yan Palace, became officials, and then became officials.
Right now.
With the accession of His Royal Highness King Yan to the throne, those children of the Guo family who entered the Yan Palace's mansion as officials have all become ministers of Conglong and are His Majesty's henchmen.
Although he went to Goryeo Yanguo, he also had the opportunity to be transferred back to Daming.
Moreover, all the children of their Guojia Village have also become rich.
What is the purpose of studying to become an official?
Isn't it all about status, power, and family wealth?
Now, in the entire northern part of the Ming Dynasty, no official dares to provoke the people of Guojia Village for no reason!
Compared with the magnates of the entire Ming Dynasty, no magnate can do Guo An can take care of his family so much!
Hearing this, Guo An also nodded slightly.
In fact, he can also arrange positions for the Guo family, and even the Guo family's chickens, ducks, and pigs can be arranged for a one-and-a-half position.
However, Shengmien fights Mi Hat!
Moreover, the power and wealth under one's own struggle will give you a sense of achievement.
Then, Guo An gave Guo Bingshan, Guo Pinglin and Guo Shi instructions again, and the three of them hurriedly said goodbye and left.
It's not that Guo An doesn't leave the three of them to eat in the house, but that Guo Bingshan, Guo Pinglin and Guo Shi are not used to it!
……
And on the other side.
Zhu Di also discussed with the cabinet ministers about building a cement straight road!
At the beginning, Nie Zishi and Zhu Fu were a little opposed.
Straight road, or thousands of miles of straight road, how much financial and material resources will it cost!
However, when I heard that it was paid from the internal funds, and then a special forced labor was hired and the wages were paid.
Nie Zishi, Zhu Fu and others nodded again and again.
Although this matter may make some gentry complain, the benefits of the cement straight road to the Ming Dynasty can make more than half of the courtiers in the court support.
It's just that he is in charge of the cement straight, and it is actually Guo An, the Marquis of Dinghai, and the children of the Guo family!
Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is watching, Dinghaihou and those Guo An's people want to collude, and His Royal Highness still trusts Dinghaihou so much!
Cannot!
