"It doesn't matter. It's nothing new for Master Fang to cause trouble. Besides, compared to the Nizewu you contributed to, this level is not worth mentioning." Wu Yan waved his hand and said that he didn't need to worry about it. Gu Chen secretly admired his master's ability.
I remembered something again.
"By the way, thanks to the help of General Hanyu and the hunting cavalry, I was able to successfully recover the armored chariot. I promised to ask for credit for them, and if I reward them based on their merits in the future, I ask Your Highness to consider this and praise them."
Gu Chen cupped his hands and begged.
"Huh?" Wu Yan paused after hearing the words, and then the corners of his mouth curved in a meaningful arc. "Although I don't doubt your sincerity, do you really know the meaning of these words?"
"Well, I think so." Gu Chen nodded with a wry smile.
The question asked by the heroine in charge is actually quite sharp.
You must know that Gu Chen is both the master of Gewu Square and the director of the Young Supervisor, so his creations naturally have dual attributes. If he claims that the "armored car" is the result of Gewu Square and has nothing to do with Liyang Mansion, then he naturally has no position to demand that the headmaster Wu Yan
The contribution of the Hunting Cavalry should be commended. Unless the armored car is recognized as the achievement of Fangzhusi, that is, as an asset of Liyang Mansion, then Wu Yan can recognize the contribution of the Hunting Cavalry in protecting the assets of the Liyang Mansion and then commend it.
Of course, these are all official procedures. It does not mean that the armored car will really belong to Liyang Mansion from now on. However, requesting recognition of the meritorious service of the hunting cavalry means that the achievements of this creation will be used by Liyang Mansion to some extent. This
It's definitely not bad at all.
"When I asked General Hanyu to ask for help, I said that I would take credit for them, and I don't intend to go back on that now." Gu Chen nodded and reiterated. "However, the armored vehicle is still in the testing stage and has not been able to perform well.
Expected performance. I hope His Highness can give me some time to make adjustments so that I can contribute to the government in the future."
"That's okay." Wu Yan asked Gu Chen in confusion. "But why are you so concerned about this matter?"
Although the Hunting Cavalry is a special cavalry unit directly under the Bingcao Division, as Gu Chen is the Young Supervisor Division, you don’t need to pay too much attention to it. To be honest, even if he pretends to have forgotten about it, Han Yu and others probably won’t think so.
What was wrong? Wu Yan found it difficult to understand why he insisted on asking for credit for the Hunting Cavalry.
"If you want to ask why, I received a lot of care from the hunting riders when I was chasing the armored car. Of course I want to repay the favor." Gu Chen answered matter-of-factly.
"You mean, repay a favor?" Wu Yan was stunned when he heard this.
This answer is really surprising. You must know that the Juvenile Supervision Department is an important official in the government at the same level as the directors of various government departments. It can be said that it is a natural thing for a bureaucrat in a high position to order his subordinates, and there is no need to pay special attention to it.
.
In the final analysis, the reason why Gu Chen had such a strange idea of "repaying a favor" was that he unconsciously regarded the subordinate hunting knights as beings of equal status to himself, so he felt "taken care of". What is certain is that
, at least other government secretaries will never have such thoughts.
(That’s right, that’s why it was then...)
Wu Yan stared at the young supervisor in front of him, and a feeling of enlightenment gradually emerged in his heart.
Generally speaking, Wu Yan is more accustomed to evaluating the talents under his command based on actual performance rather than family background or reputation.
Whether it was suppressing the Chaos of the Li Palace or creating the Ni Zewu, Gu Chen's actions were enough to prove his unique talent. That's why Wu Yan boldly appointed him as the Young Supervisor, and so far, she has not felt that
There are any problems with this appointment.
But appreciating someone's talent is one thing, trusting someone's character is another.
Regardless of ambition or desire or obsession, Gu Chen's character did not show any specific tendency, making it impossible for Wu Yan to grasp the basic point of his personality. However, loyalty to the emperor and his ministers, which the Chenghuang countries regard as a social guideline, can only be found in someone.
There was no trace at all. Therefore, Wu Yan initially judged Gu Chen as an extremely self-centered character with no loyalty, but at this moment he changed his mind——
It’s not that Gu Chen doesn’t know the loyalty of the emperor and his ministers, but he didn’t distinguish the identity difference between “jun” and “minister” from the beginning.
Only when you treat your subordinate hunting knights as equal partners will you take care of them and want to repay them. Only when you treat the pioneers who rely on elixirs as equal traders will you shine when conquering the palace. I heard that Gewufang
There are many southern barbarian aliens gathered in it, probably for this reason. In addition, although admitting this makes Wu Yan slightly uncomfortable, I am afraid that in his true heart, even the head of Li Yang is not a special existence, right?
(I heard that he came from a distant foreign country, but I didn’t expect that his thoughts were so alien...)
Although Wu Yan was stunned by this, it was a matter of course for Gu Chen.
After all, on the earth side, the principle of monarch and minister is often an outdated concept that is difficult to find even in history textbooks. It is replaced by the idea that "all people are created equal". Besides, Gu Chen was still living in the new era where "working people are the masters of the country".
In China, I have been immersed in that atmosphere since childhood, and almost instinctively cannot distinguish between high and low status.
This idea of equality is as natural as breathing on Earth, but it is an almost heretical concept on Chenghuang Side. Therefore, even if he is as smart as Wu Yan, it was not until a moment ago that he grasped the idea of his young supervisor.
(Don’t keep loyalty, but value friendship...)
Without the distinction between king and minister, there would naturally be no concept of loyalty. At the same time, this attitude of treating each other sincerely regardless of status and position may instead create a deep bond of friendship with the people around you.
Although he lacks the desire for fame and wealth and is difficult to control, and he has no concept of loyalty to the monarch and his subjects, the trait of attaching importance to friendship is enough to form the basis of his stable personality. If you accept this, even if you don't have to compare it with the principles of loyalty to the monarch and his subjects, you can compare it with it.
Let’s build a bond of deep trust, right?
"I have indeed received your request."
Just like digging out gold in a fertile field, Wu Yan, who thought about the truth, felt indescribable joy in his heart, and then promised the Young Supervisor in a high-spirited tone. "I will reward you for my merits over there."
, all matters related to the armored car have been left to your disposal."
"Oh, oh." Gu Chen nodded, wondering why the lady in charge in front of him suddenly became happy.
"Actually, I called you here today for two things. One is about the armored vehicle, and the other is about Nizewu. The hunting cavalry equipped with Nizewu has achieved remarkable results. It is really helpful in the current situation.
It’s so busy that Bingcaosi has repeatedly made requests for batch equipment. Can Gewufang do it?”
"Nizewu..." Gu Chen scratched his head in embarrassment. "I told His Highness last time that the difficulty in making Nizewu is not the casting itself but the materials. As long as you find something similar to Nizewu's
The materials can be made at any time, but if I can’t find the right materials, there’s nothing I can do.”
