Duguxin was unaware of the conversation between mother and daughter in the backyard. While chatting with Li Tai, he was still thinking about how to strengthen his influence and control over Li Tai.
He doesn't have a strong desire to control. He feels that everyone has to be a pawn in his hands and obey his arrangements. However, he really has a very strong desire to manipulate Li Tai.
It can't be said to be a manipulation, it should be a kind of appreciation and expectation with a strong sense of substitution.
As a son of a powerful chieftain in Wuchuan Town, and now a powerful official in the Western Dynasty, Dugu Xin's life was not unsuccessful, but it did not mean that it was perfect and without any shortcomings.
Not having a noble background, not grasping the current situation accurately enough when young, lacking support from nobles at critical moments, and missing out on many opportunities. This should be the emotion that many successful people often feel when they look back on their past, and sometimes
I can't help but fantasize, if I could do it again...
Duguxin's admiration for Li Tai was actually mixed with such emotions. He sincerely recognized the young man's demeanor and ability, and he had a more real and strong expectation, combining some of his regrets with the unfulfilled goals.
His ambitions are pinned on Li Tai, hoping that he can follow his own wishes and, under the guidance of his own experience, avoid detours and achieve higher results.
Such intentions are not bad. For some people who lack independent opinions and planning, the guidance and arrangements given all the way can indeed bring great help to their lives.
After a conversation, Li Tai also clearly felt the strength of Dugu Xin. It was not that he was opposed to it. He just felt that although the relationship between them had become closer, the mode of getting along still needed to be explored and adjusted.
Therefore, Li Tai did not retort tit for tat and gave a clear answer to the imperfections in his plan and suggestions pointed out by Dugu Xin. He just corrected his attitude and said with a serious face that he would consider it deeply and be cautious.
decision.
He does not feel that his business plan for Beizhou is useless and lacks room for development. Apart from anything else, the human resources he currently has are real. The only question is how to keep them in his own hands for a long time and stably, and to pursue
Greater space for development is indeed a problem that needs to be faced squarely.
"I know that you will be attending the military parade this autumn, but I will be leaving soon, and I have no time to observe the young man's style, and I will try to boost my reputation elsewhere."
Dugu Xin was not a big talker, but he was extremely stingy when it came to reality. After discussing the current situation with Li Tai, he brought the topic back to the present, and said with a half-truth and half-false smile: "Boshan, you
Today, you are considered outstanding among your peers in terms of fame and power, but when it comes to starting a family, establishing a career, and having a wife and son, you are still inferior to those who have gone before you. You are close to my family, and I don’t have much luck and evil ways to help you.
Sir, I will do my best to help you enjoy more convenience in your affairs."
When Li Tai heard this, his spirit suddenly perked up. This is what he was looking forward to! Who in this world is not aggressive and enterprising? In the 360th line, the number one scholar was ranked number one. To the east, Lou Zhaojun was the Empress Dowager Niu.
If you don't work hard, how can you compete with the most awesome father-in-law?
Yu Laoer became Yu Wentai's son-in-law, which immediately made Mingjue full of vanity. I don't like those vanities now, I still need something more practical.
….
"In a grand military parade, all you can see are men, horses, weapons and staffs, walking and clutching. Boshan, you have gathered many local warriors along the Luoshui River. The soldiers under your control are the envy of many veterans. As long as you can demonstrate
If you order it properly and maintain a proper camp, you will surely become a powerful force in time!"
When Dugu Xin talked about this issue, he looked at Li Tai with envy. This boy indeed had his own way of developing and controlling the local situation. In just over a year, he had become one with the people in the village.
Duguxin was not optimistic about Li Tai's management in northern Shaanxi, but he did not hesitate to praise his rural management. This was one of the reasons why he admired and valued Li Tai so much.
Although until now, the Beizhen warriors still control the military power of the entire Western Dynasty, their control power is gradually declining.
Even without the huge losses caused by successive battles, the North Town warriors were living in Kansai, so the replacement of soldiers would have been a big problem.
Duguxin is the military leader of Beizhen who realized this problem earlier.
One, so every time he visited a place, he paid more attention to the interaction with the local powerful people and absorbed many powerful people into his team.
But he still couldn't get past those powerful people in the countryside and directly exert influence on the masses. Once he no longer had a superior-subordinate relationship with the powerful people, although he still retained a certain degree of personal friendship, he still couldn't control those powerful people in the countryside.
But Li Tai is not like that. His influence and appeal on the countryside can be directly spread to the countryside without the help of those powerful people in the countryside as a medium. In other words, he himself is the biggest powerful person in the township, and those local powerful people who are originally from the township.
, now he needs the party to be under his wing in order to maintain his status and interests in the rural order.
Even Duguxin admires Li Tai's ability to take root on the ground.
Therefore, he felt that Li Taida did not need to invest time and energy in Beizhou, which was of little value. Based on this nostalgia, he could develop within the Sixth Army of Taifu with peace of mind, and use Taifu to recruit Han people into the army.
The general trend, potential and influence will naturally become deep-rooted.
But Duguxin also knew about it but didn't know why. He only knew that Li Tai's hometown was powerful, but he didn't know why it was strong. It was the things in Beizhou that he was not optimistic about that gave Li Tai the ability to adjust and control the order of his hometown.
.
Perhaps Li Tai's business investment in northern Shaanxi was not in line with Bafu's overall strategic vision, but it was in line with the demands of a large number of small and medium-sized landowners with military merit who needed to increase production and purchase properties to gain economic status after the rise of the government military system.
After appreciating Li Tai's advantage, Dugu Xin then said: "You can't compete bravely without a sword, and how can you be a soldier without armor? Boshan, you have many soldiers, but when it comes to the use of armor, it should be
It’s quite expensive, isn’t it?”
After Li Tai heard this, he nodded quickly. He had been worried about this for more than a day or two. Although he had been studying production on his own, technical progress could not be achieved overnight. By now, this problem has become an obvious problem for him.
shortcomings and disadvantages.
"I am now at the edge of Zhenlong. Although I have an arsenal, it is for the purpose of the country and cannot be given to others privately. Boshan, you must be in charge of armor and weapons in order to advance. All the weapons and armor should be self-sufficient.
, Don’t look up to others for a long time!”
….
Respecting yourself as a soldier and forging swords and armor are not taboo topics nowadays. When my father-in-law taught his beloved son-in-law his experience, he did not hide it: "In the past year, I was a direct guest in the court.
Guards, all the weapons and equipment of the people in Liufang were messy and trivial. At that time, Chang'an was in a depression, and everything was not prosperous. In order not to delay the affairs of the guards, many of the needs had to be purchased from the people..."
Li Tai listened carefully and sighed secretly, it must be you, it must be you who play bigger.
The literal meaning of this statement is a bit misleading. The fact is that when Dugu Xin was the leading general, he took advantage of his position to mess around with the weapons and equipment of the Liufang Forbidden Army, and packaged everyone and everything into private properties.
, the so-called folk should be equivalent to my family.
Dugu Xin talked about this old incident, certainly not to show off his skill in playing, and continued: "Now the supply of the people in Liufang has been transferred to other places, but the casting matters used in the past are still maintained. But I went to the town immediately.
, had no time to interrogate, so he entrusted the matter to Longxi Gong Li Wenbin to take care of it. Boshan, if you are not tired of being busy and tiring with chores, you can take this personnel away from Li Wenbin and put it under your supervision. You will be responsible for the profits and losses."
Li Tai was overjoyed when he heard this. He stood up, bowed his hands and bowed deeply, nodding his head and saying, "How can we bother others for a long time with household chores at home? The Duke of Longxi has a high position and many affairs. I didn't know about it before, but now I know it."
, of course it is obligatory!"
As expected, the treatment is different when you become a member of your own family. Although Dugu Xin gave away a lot of weapons before, he could calculate them one by one, but now he directly wants to give a weapons workshop, which can be said to be a great gift.
Seeing his impatient look, Dugu Xin said with a smile: "In that case, you can take care of your family affairs for a while after you return. Recently, you will go with me to Chang'an. When you see Li Wenbin, you will go to Chang'an first."
Explain this matter clearly."
"I understand, I understand, I will definitely not miss the date."
Li Tai quickly assured him that nothing could delay this matter.
After a short pause, Dugu Xin frowned slightly again, looked at Li Tai and said with some displeasure: "That's bad.
I forgot about it. It’s still inappropriate to meet like this. I have to prepare a letter and send it to Li Wenbin to ask if he is willing to see you. You offended him before and came to the door without apology. If you are refused, the gap will inevitably deepen. "
"What Kaifu is talking about is the two-breed relationship between the two deceased masters. Although this matter is not a harmonious one, it is already..."
Li Tai thought Dugu Xin was telling the story about the Heba Jingwei brothers. After hearing this, he quickly said that Li Tai had tolerated it at that time, but Li Hu would be a bit too stingy if he still held a grudge.
After hearing this, Dugu Xin rolled his eyes at him, waved his hand and said, "It's not about this, it's something else. You made him very embarrassed and annoyed, but you didn't even know it. It can be seen that you never made any explanation, or
I have to write a letter and apologize solemnly!"
Li Tai was a little confused when he heard this. He hadn't seen Li Hu since the last incident, and he really couldn't think of how he could have offended him. Listening to what Dugu Xin said, the matter seemed quite serious, but he really
I can't think of anything that he has done from last year to now. The only thing that has something to do with Li Hu is probably killing a tiger with his own hands.
[Recommended, @@ Zhuishu is really useful, everyone should try it soon.]
This unknowingly offended people. Why are your Beizhen military leaders so angry?
