Chapter 236 Eagle Messenger
With Li Tai's instructions, the subordinates did their work very efficiently. It took a few days to take a clear inventory of the materials currently stored in the office, and all the things on the desk that were in progress and those that were about to be done were also sorted out. A series of trade-offs were made.
After deducting the necessary expenses to maintain the operation of the office in the next period of time, there is still a long way to go compared to the conditions issued by the Taiwan government. It is far from being able to make up for it in the next two months through conventional means. of.
In fact, in the context of the renaissance of Guanzhong's agricultural production and successive years of drought, if Yuwen Tai is willing to slow down and give another one to two years of development time, this task will not be too difficult for the Dushui Administration Bureau to complete.
But many times, things often force people to do their best, and it is mostly a luxury to hope that all aspects can be coordinated appropriately. Development can be slowed down, but once the opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to get it back.
Yuwentai should not have foreseen the Battle of Yubi next year and the series of changes that followed. However, the confrontation between the two Wei Dynasties and the deterioration of the surrounding environment of the Western Wei Dynasty forced him to strengthen the construction of the army as soon as possible and did not dare to spare any effort. .
Since the boss has this intention, Li Tai naturally has nothing to be polite about and urges his subordinates to come up with a plan to buy out Uiyangyandai as soon as possible and privatize the industrial interests of Luoshui.
All interests need to be backed by matching strength. From last year to the present, Li Tai's position and resource wealth that can be mobilized have surged, and have even surpassed many senior veterans who are not good at business management outside the military.
This year will see the official unification of the army, and Bafu's organizational strength can be used to conduct an in-depth integration and training of the armed forces under his command. If the results are satisfactory, the future will naturally be more promising.
Therefore, even if he swallows all these weirs and dams on the Luoshui River, he no longer has to worry about gains and losses. He will be plotted by others. After all, he is no longer a soft persimmon who has just entered Guanzhong. They already have a considerable reputation, they just need to deal with the boss's occasional taunting behavior.
On this day, he was still busy calculating the value of the property with his CCP subordinates. When the servant came to inform Yu Wenhu of his visit, he remembered that there was such an agreement before.
Yu Wenhu was lightly dressed on this trip, with only a dozen guards accompanying him. Along with him was a burly general named Hou Longen.
"It's disrespectful for me to stay in my hometown for a visit. Brother Sabao, why don't you send someone to report it? You won't find out until you enter..."
Li Tai strode out of the straight hall, clasped his fists at Yu Wenhu who was coming towards him from a distance, and said he was relieved when he saw that the Yuchi brothers did not follow him. No matter what the purpose of Yu Wenhu's trip was, At least you don't have to deal with those disputes and distractions.
"There is no need to say too many polite words. I know you have been busy with cases recently, but you can still smile now. It shows that you are really calm in the face of things."
Yu Wenhu said with a smile that he didn't know that Li Tai had already made a comprehensive plan to swallow up the assets of the administrative office. Seeing that his posture was relatively calm, he couldn't help but look high at him. While greeting him, he introduced Hou Longen, who was traveling with him, to him.
Li Tai and Hou Longen had met several times, but there was no interactive friendship. He knew that he was Yuwen Hu's true confidant, and his relationship with them was not inferior to that of Yuwen Taizhi and Li Mu, and he was also the number one general in Yuwen Hu's palace in the future.
There were many documents and noisy people in the main hall, so Li Tai led the two of them to another hall to entertain them.
After Yu Wenhu sat down, he took out a pamphlet from his arms and handed it to Li Tai according to the preface, and told the political situation of various states and counties this year.
This is naturally quite rare information for Li Tai. In previous years, when he was still in Taifu, he would have had some contact with and learned about such situations. But now that he is no longer working in Taifu, the information is not so extensive. That is to say, Yu Wenhu has a special status, and other officials of the Taiwan government dare not leak the details of the affairs of the Taiwan government so casually.
With the support of these circumstances, Li Tai can at least know which states and counties have stable politics and abundant material reserves, and can get twice the result with half the effort by raising materials through transactions.
He quickly thanked Yuwenhu, but Yuwenhu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Boshan, you don't have to rush to thank me. I also have something to ask for during this visit. You first listen to whether my request is difficult or easy, and then you can judge." Am I a good friend or a bad guest?”
At this time, Hou Longen, who had been silent until now, clasped his fists at Li Tai and said with a smile: "In fact, I begged Mr. Chi to go with me on this visit. I have long been known as a talented person in the Ministry of Governor Li. I often have the idea of asking for advice, but I am not well-educated and don't know how to make friends with Shaojun, so I can only ask Mr. Chi to introduce him. "
"General Hou Fuhou said something serious. I wanted to talk to the general and explain to him several times when I met Brother Sabao at home, but he was shy and swallowed every time. I didn't dare to teach him. If the general comes to visit, I will sweep up my bed to welcome him. So far I have been able to Although they got acquainted by two private schemes, Brother Sabao didn't lead him before, so he deserves to go through this journey!"
After hearing this, Li Tai said with a smile that he would not show it if he had any thoughts in his heart.
When Yu Wenhu heard this, he became angry and said: "Although I am your common friend, you can't blame me for your poor communication! It's really unreasonable for Boshan to make such an accusation! "
Hou Longen obviously wanted to ask for something from Li Tai. With Yu Wenhu's jokes and jokes, the atmosphere was relatively harmonious for a while. After he pondered for a while, he said directly: "It's rare that Governor Li is willing to treat me with courtesy. Let's work together today." When we sit together in the pool, I am no longer timid.
I came here today to ask for something. There is a boy in the house who has reached the age of career. It is a pity that I have been working hard in the army for many years and have not been educated. As a result, this boy has no achievements in both civil and military affairs. For a while, I don't know where to recommend him. Governor Li, you are a young and heroic young man who has established a career in Beizhou. There are also many disciples under your command who have made great achievements. Therefore, I would like to recommend this clumsy son to my sect, and I sincerely ask the Governor to take you under your wing! "
When Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and he started to murmur in his heart.
Hou Longen himself has been a general in the army for many years, and now he is also the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army. He himself has a life-saving benevolence for Yu Wenhu, and they have a deep friendship with each other. No matter how hard it is to train Hu Zhongerang, he will never worry about his birth and future. , why would you lower your posture so low and seek to come to yourself?
His eyes flickered on the faces of these two people, and he secretly guessed that this was probably not Hou Longen's own intention, but that Yu Wenhu wanted to have a hand in him, so he chose Hou Longen's son.
"Hou Fuhou is also humble. I often stay in his house as a guest. I have seen how talented his son is. He may not be very impressive, but he is above average. I wanted to recommend him, but it's a pity. Although Hou Fuhouyan is humble, he is proud of his heart. He hopes that his son will follow the example of young men and virtuous people, and he is not convinced, so he comes to trouble Boshan. "
Yu Wenhu sighed again and said, his expression seemed to be slightly displeased because Hou Longen was too stubborn.
"You two are so familiar and informal. Such a trivial matter is not worthy of Brother Sabao's companionship. General Hou Fuhou can do it alone. Brother Sabao's words and affection are very valuable to me!"
Li Tai first answered with a smile, and then looked at Hou Longen and said: "Beizhou Sanfang City was founded in the barren land, and it is still barely maintained. The gossip of the world may not be very practical praise, but since the general intends to support his son, As for me, I dare not hide it, and I want to tell the truth. The work in Beizhou is not easy, and the wind, sand and cold are the only second priority. There are frequent noises and resistance to fighting. If you are not afraid of these dangers, you can always do it. Come."
When Hou Longen heard these words, he could not help but hesitate. He glanced at Yu Wenhu and then said: "Since I am determined to make meritorious deeds, why should I be afraid of the dangers? Since I am deeply favored by the country, of course I also hope The children in the household can continue their ambition to serve the country, and if the humble children can enter the sect of the governor, then let him be used as he pleases!"
"Having said that, it is not easy to raise a little thing in my arms. Since I entrusted it to Boshan, I also hope that I will not lose my support in the matter. It is inconvenient for Hou Fuhou to speak, but I share Boshan's words without restraint. Since you employ people's children, of course You also have to give an explanation to your parents.”
Yu Wenhu continued at the table: "So Bo Shan, do you plan to entrust Ren Erlang with anything?"
"If others ask questions, they will naturally be making things difficult. The affairs of the Three Defenses City are still simple and uncomplicated, and all appointments will be given according to needs. I haven't met him yet, so I really can't make a promise lightly."
Li Tai sighed again and said: "But since it is Brother Sabao who is asking in person, I can't refute your kindness. It just so happens that there are preparations for the Grand Parade recently. The matter is complicated and I really need help. After all, Diaoyin has birds of prey. Although there is no order from the Taiwanese government to buy some beautiful products from the area, I secretly plan to visit them to add glory to the great parade. The general is young and talented. I wonder if I am willing to visit the Eagle Eagle tribes and serve as an Eagle Eagle envoy?"
Yu Wenhu is a strong-willed person. Since he plans to put people in his place, if Li Tai refuses forcefully, he will definitely turn against him. But he would not let outsiders interfere with the core affairs of the Three Defense City under any circumstances.
So after thinking about it for a while, he came up with a position to place Hou Longen's son, and let the boy take the title of Eagle Eagle Envoy to deal with the wealthy Hu tribes in Diaoyin.
This kind of arrangement is not considered perfunctory. For those who leave their envoys and go to the Hu tribes to work, it is also a basic operation to show authority and blackmail in front of the Hu chiefs. As long as it goes too far and forces the Hu tribes to rebel, this is absolutely It's a nice job.
Moreover, he also stated that the eagles, eagles and raptors he visited will be used in the parade in the near future. Who doesn’t want to play with big birds? If this job is done well and it can bring glory to the Grand Parade, Daxingtai will definitely reward you. It can be said to be a rare opportunity.
Hou Longen was quite satisfied with such an arrangement that was not very risky and was satisfactory both inside and outside. He repeatedly thanked Li Tai with fists in his hands. The victims have made such a statement. Although Yu Wenhu still has some unfinished thoughts, it is hard to say anything more.
In this way, Li Tai dismissed the two people, and at the same time he felt a sense of urgency in his heart. He didn't know whether Yu Wenhu's intervention in his ministry was a whim or if he had a clear plan, but in general it was not a good sign. , you have to be a little careful in this regard!
