Chapter 1349: Han Banner World (39) Arrives in Jinyang

On the spacious and straight road, an army escorted several carriages moving forward slowly. Gaoyuan leaned comfortably in the carriage, stretched out his feet, and was admiring the scenery outside through the open curtains. On both sides of the road, crops that are growing very well stretch out endlessly. Even if they have nothing to do, farmers who are restless will patrol the fields with hoes, pull a few weeds, hoe the fields, or watch the fields full of The land of harvest hope is happy for a while. From time to time in the novel, we will see villages one after another. The villages are always quiet. Children chase and play, chase chickens and tease dogs. The cheerful laughter will always reach Gao Yuan's ears from time to time. He is very satisfied. , life should be like this.

Living and working in peace and contentment is what the common people pursue, and what I pursue in this life is to enable all the people under my rule to live such a life, with someone to rely on when they are old and someone to take care of when they are young. Within the territory of the Han Dynasty, I have almost completed this goal. Of course, the territory of the Han Dynasty will continue to expand, and I will continue to work hard to achieve this goal throughout my life.

Seeing the happiness of these people, Gao Yuan felt that this was his own happiness.

At the other end of the carriage, Cao Tianci was sitting cross-legged on the floor, with his hands tied and his head lowered, with a look of shame on his face. From time to time, he raised his head and secretly glanced at Gao Yuan's face, but there was no sign of any reaction to this matter on Gao Yuan's always cheerful face.

After a moment, Gao Yuan withdrew his gaze, glanced at Cao Tianci in the corner, and asked lightly: "That's it?"

"Yes, my father sent Cao Wending to find me and told me their plan, and then told him not to report the matter to the king immediately, but to wait until the matter was over before reporting to the king. Later, Wu Tianjiao and Mei Su also They sent people to find me, and I thought it was not a big deal, so I agreed to delay it for a while. But after thinking about it for a while, I still felt uneasy. ,so……"

Gao Yuan sneered: "So you finally decided to report this incident to me, but it has been ten days since this incident happened. Now in Dayan County, the things that Cao Wen was determined to help should have been completed, right?"

Cao Tianci lowered his head and said nothing.

"What are you afraid of, Lao Cao? I'm worried about me because your Cao family is so proud of their official career now, and they are invincible in the shopping malls. The influence of the political and business circles is boundless. All the birds that want are gone, good bows are hidden, cunning rabbits are dead, and lackeys are left. "Chen, are you afraid that I will deal with you?" Gao Yuan said coldly.

"No, that's not the case." Cao Tianci suddenly panicked, shaking his hands wildly, and his face turned red: "That Cao Wending just said that the Cao family's wealth has increased too fast and has formed a monopoly in the transportation industry. This is not the wealth of the country. The Cao family has become a leader and will inevitably encounter jealousy and suppression from all sides. Once something happens, it will make things difficult for the king. My father thinks that what he said is reasonable, because the king has said before. Competition leads to progress, so Cao decided to diversify his investments and gradually reduce his share of the domestic transportation market, allowing the domestic transportation industry to flourish.

"

"What Lao Cao said is correct." Gao Yuan looked at Cao Tianci, "That's not what I'm angry about. Tianci, you have to understand. First of all, you are the police minister of the Han Dynasty and the director of the National Security Bureau. Secondly, you are The son of the Cao family."

"I know I was wrong. I should have reported this matter to the king immediately from the beginning, and I shouldn't have delayed it for a few days." Cao Ci lowered his head and said.

"The Cao family's economic impact on my big man is not just a little or two. This major decision they made will have an impact on many industries in the country. The Cao family is not a small workshop. What they do has already related to the national economy. Based on this, you should report to me immediately." Gao Yuan looked at Cao Tianci, "I hope this is the first and last time, Tianci, if this happens again, you will not be able to sit in this seat."

Cao Tianci broke into cold sweat, "Disciple understands."

Gao Yuan snorted coldly, "Actually, I'm happy to see the results of what they did. It doesn't cost the country a penny, but in the end it is possible to reap huge results. This is actually a good thing. This Cao Wending, on the other hand, is A talented person, you said he is a top student in the calculation department who graduated from Jicheng Comprehensive University? "

"Yes, in the Department of Computational Accounting, this person ranked first in all the graduation assessments. His father came to visit him personally and offered him a high salary and a high position to recruit him into the Cao family. Therefore, he also rejected the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance. "Recruitment." Cao Tianci said: "I have found out this person's background clearly and his wealth is clean."

"This traitor, Lao Cao, actually poached my talents." Gao Yuan snorted: "After returning to Jicheng, I will slowly settle the score with him."

Hearing Gao Yuan's tone, Cao Tianci finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the king was no longer prepared to hold him responsible for concealing this matter.

"Tianci." Upon hearing Gao Yuan's call, Cao Tianci hurriedly agreed.

"Please pay more attention to this Cao Wending. This person helped your father make this big move. I think your father will definitely send him to take charge of this matter in the future. I want to know the whole process of how he did this. If he can really Taking advantage of this matter to control Wang Jian's economic lifeline in the Qin Dynasty for several years, hehe, this is a great achievement. This person also has talents." Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Now we have a lot of talents, including Fang Shu. , I was so startled, and now Cao Wending pops up, ha, there is a successor to the Han Dynasty. If they can keep doing this, the Han Dynasty will not be short of talents for the future! "

Fang Shu was fine, he had already made a name for himself in the political arena of the Han Dynasty. Within a few years, he had made a triple jump in the political arena, and now he had become the governor of Liaoning County. However, the king had such a high opinion of Cao Wending that he was far from satisfied. It was beyond Cao Tianci's expectation.

"No matter how good he does, he will only be a businessman in the future. How can he be the chief assistant?" Cao Tianci asked nagging.

"Why do you think that our big man will not choose someone with great achievements in business to be the chief minister in the future?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile, "We'll see! Everything is possible."

The sound of horse hoofbeats outside was followed by He Weiyuan's voice: "Your Majesty, we are about to enter Jinyang. The commander of the First Military Region, Xu Yuan, and the Jinyang County Sheriff are leading the civil and military officials at the border to welcome them. Sentries have been sent. Tan got in touch with us.”

Gao Yuan stuck his head out of the window and said with a smile: "This Xu Yuan is very good at practicing formalism. He leads hundreds of civil and military officials to meet hundreds of realms. It's amazing. This place is still a hundred miles away from his First Military Region Headquarters." Eighty miles away!”

"This is also Commander Xu's respect for the king!" He Weiyuan said with a smile. "The general estimates that even if the king reprimands him, he will be happy in his heart."

Gao Yuan laughed, "Speed ​​up, Xu Yuan has brought all the civil and military officials here, then isn't the current First Military Region and Jinyang County Governor's Mansion empty? Let's meet them quickly so that those officials can When he returns to his post, if he makes a mistake, I will definitely scold him. "

He Weiyuan disagreed: "Your Majesty, now all industries in Jinyang are prosperous, and hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed at the border. If we don't attack the Qin people, they are just burning incense. Do they still dare to provoke us?"

"Be careful and you won't make a big mistake!" Gao Yuan was not unhappy that He Weiyuan dared to refute him.

The team obviously sped up. Half an hour later, Gao Yuan saw the dark welcoming crowd in front. The person at the front was naturally Xu Yuan, the commander of the First Military Region whom he had not seen for a long time.

Seeing Gao Yuan's chariot, Commander Xu Yuan and Deputy Commander Ye Zhen rushed up to meet them. Next to them was Wang Yuan, the governor of Jinyang County. The Han army and the local area did not govern each other. Wang Yuan was in Jinyang. He was on an equal footing with these two people, managing both the army and the government. However, Jinyang was the front line against the Qin army, so many of Wang Yuan's jobs also involved dealing with the army, but he was able to get along well with these two senior military officials. good.

"I've met the king!" Xu Yuan and Ye Zhen saluted, but Wang Yuan clasped his fists to the ground.

"That's all, we are all old brothers, where do we get all these etiquettes." Gao Yuan smiled and jumped out of the carriage, looking behind the three of them.

Ding Wei, commander of the Fifth Army, Yan Haibo, commander of the Sixth Army, Yan Peng, commander of the Seventh Army, Luo Weiran, commander of the Eighth Army, infantry commander of the Ninth Army, Yang Fugui, commander of the Tenth Army, and Yang Fugui, commander of the Eleventh Army Army Commander Kong Fang, all of them are familiar faces. Except for the two cavalry division commanders Gu Li and Agu Huai'en who did not come to the scene, all the others in the First Military Region were present. However, the civil servants from Jinyang County, Except for Wang Yuan, all the others are new to me.

The old brothers were naturally very happy to meet each other, but Gao Yuan also knew very well that in this joy, there was also a sense of alienation and restraint. As the Han Dynasty became more and more powerful, its territory became wider and wider, and its national power As the relationship becomes stronger and stronger, it is impossible for my relationship with these old brothers to return to the closeness before, where I can joke loudly together and expose each other's secrets. Sometimes Gao Yuan feels that the more respectful they are to him, the less comfortable he feels.

"Wang Yuan, you have done a good job as a county guard. Jinyang is really not like the front line fighting the Qin army. I think the people here live and work in peace and contentment, and the commerce is prosperous. Compared with Jicheng, it is not bad! "Gao Yuan did not praise Xu Yuan, but he praised Wang Yuan vigorously. Xu Yuan is an old brother, and talking too much will make people feel alienated.

"This is all the work of Commander Xu and Deputy Commander Ye. The army is eyeing Qin, and the Qin people across the way are in fear every day. How can they bother to harass us? We can naturally focus on local construction."

"Your Majesty, in the past two years, in addition to training, we have been trained by Commander Wang to clear wasteland and harvest for him. We have almost become his voluntary workers. The soldiers are all looking forward to fighting Qin as soon as possible. , I have been holding this breath for almost two years." Xu Yuan on the other side said with some dissatisfaction.

Gao Yuan laughed loudly, "It's okay for the army to help local areas with construction. The military and civilians are in a good situation. It seems that you, the high-ranking officials of the military and the government, still get along very happily."

"Of course it's fun. Our soldiers will be put to work by Governor Wang without any payment." The sourness in Xu Yuan's words made everyone burst into laughter again. (To be continued.)
