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 administrative 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 through conventional means in the next two months or so.
of.
In fact, in the context of the revival of Guanzhong's agricultural production and the 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 are always pressing, and it is probably a luxury to hope that all aspects can cooperate just right. Development can be slowed down, but once the opportunity is missed, it is 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 leave any force.
.
Since the boss has such intentions, Li Tai naturally has nothing to be polite about and urges his subordinates to come up with a plan to buy out the company 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 a deep integration and training of the armed forces under his command. If the results are still satisfactory, the future will naturally be more fulfilling.
Therefore, even if he swallowed all these weirs and dams on the Luoshui River, he no longer had to worry about gains and losses, and he would not be worried about being plotted by others. After all, he was no longer a soft persimmon who had just entered Guanzhong.
They already have a considerable reputation, they just need to deal with the boss's occasional slanderous 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 traveled lightly 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, seeing that the Yuchi brothers did not follow him, he felt relieved. 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 had met Hou Longen a few times, but they didn't have any interactive friendship. He knew that he was Yuwen Hu's best confidant. Their relationship was no less than that between Yuwen Taizhi and Li Mu, and they were also the future members of Yuwen Hu's tyrants.
The number one general.
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 according to the preface and handed it to Li Tai, and then took the table to talk about 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 been exposed to some of this kind of situation. But now that he is no longer working in Taifu, the information is not so extensive. This is the identity of Yu Wenhu.
Specially, other Taiwan government officials do not dare to disclose the details of Taiwan government affairs so casually.
With the support of these circumstances, Li Tai can at least know which states and counties have stable politics, abundant material reserves, and can get twice the result with half the effort in 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: "I actually asked 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. Chichi to introduce him."
"General Hou Fuhou said something serious. Several times when I met brother Sa Bao at home, I wanted to talk to the general and explain, but he was always shy and swallowed his voice. I didn't dare to teach him. If the general comes to visit, I will sweep up the couch to welcome him. So far, I have been able to
Although we got acquainted with each other due to two private plans, Brother Sabao didn’t lead me in the past, so I think it’s his fault to make this journey!”
After Li Tai heard this, he smiled and said 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 Li Tai for something. 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.
When we share the table in the pool, I am no longer timid.
I came to visit today, and I really have something to ask for. There is a boy in the house who has reached the age of entering the military. 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 did not know how to recommend him to
He Men. Commander-in-Chief Li, you are a young and heroic young man who has established a career in Beizhou. There are also many disciples under his command who have made great achievements, so I would like to recommend this clumsy son to my sect, and I sincerely ask the Commander-in-Chief 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 military consul in 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 matter was probably not Hou Longen's own intention, but it was probably Yu Wenhu who wanted to have a hand in him, so he chose Hou Longen's son.
"Hou Fuhou is also humble. I often visit his family 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 to the job, but it's a pity.
Hou Fu said that although he was humble, he was arrogant. He hoped that his son would follow the example of a young and virtuous man, but he was not convinced, so he came 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 kindness 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 a barren land, and it is still barely maintained. The gossip of the world may not be a real compliment, but since the general intends to support him, As for me, I dare not hide it, and I want to tell the truth. The work in Beizhou cannot be said to be easy. The wind, sand and cold are only second best. There are frequent noises and resistance to war. If your son is not afraid of these dangers, he can always do it. Come."
When Hou Longen heard these words, a trace of hesitation flashed through his expression involuntarily. 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 to serve the country, and if the humble child 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. 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 Taiwan government to buy some beautiful products from the region, I secretly planned to visit some on my own to add glory to the great parade. The general is young and has great talents. I wonder if I am willing to visit the various tribes of Diao Yin and serve as an eagle envoy?"
Yu Wenhu has a strong style. Since he plans to put people in his place, if Li Tai refuses forcefully, he will definitely turn against him. But in the core affairs of the Three Defense City, he will not let outsiders interfere 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 local tyrants and barbarians in Diaoyin.
Such an arrangement is not considered perfunctory. Anyone who leaves the post of envoy to work for the Hu tribes will show off their authority in front of the Hu chiefs and blackmail is also a basic operation. As long as it goes too far and forces the Hu tribes to rebel, this will definitely be done. It's a beautiful 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 parade, Daxingtai will definitely not hesitate to do so. The reward is a rare opportunity.
Hou Longen was quite satisfied with such an arrangement that was not very dangerous and was satisfactory both inside and outside. He repeatedly thanked Li Tai with clasped fists. The victim had made such a statement. Although Yu Wenhu was still a little unsatisfied, it was hard to stop. Say 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!
