Chapter 388: It's an Opportunity and a Test

After taking a nap in the afternoon, Gao Yuan came out of the backyard full of energy, thinking that Ye Jing'er was still paralyzed on the bed later, he couldn't help but secretly feel proud.

Although it is the Chinese New Year, except for the guards left behind, everyone in Zhengdong Mansion basically rests, but Gao Yuan cannot enjoy this holiday as well as his subordinates. He just received Wu Kai in the morning. In the afternoon, another important person from Zhengdong Mansion was ushered in, that is Zheng Jun, the magistrate of Chima County.

Speaking of Zheng Jun, one has to mention the embarrassing position of this person in Zhengdong Mansion. He is not a comrade in arms like Sun Xiaobing who started in poverty with Gao Yuan and died together, nor is he like Wu Kai who gave great support to Gao Yuan when he was in his infancy and gained Gao Yuan's trust and reward.

Like Wu Kai, he is the county magistrate of a remote border county, but unlike Wu Kai, who is a county magistrate who sells dog meat, he is a serious bureaucrat. It's a pity that under the political environment in western Liaoning, he has nowhere to go. He was suppressed in Chimabian County, and his official position could not be guaranteed at any time. However, this county magistrate still fulfilled his duties and managed Chima County in an orderly manner. Except for the invasion of the Donghu people, he had no way to resist and could only clean up the mess afterwards. His political achievements in Chima County can be said to be very impressive.

With Gao Yuan's rapid rise, Chima and Fufeng were given to Gao Yuan by Zhang Shouyue, and became a unified Fuchi defense area. He suddenly became Gao Yuan's subordinate and changed a boss. Nothing really matters. To him, it was nothing more than a change of soup. What he had to do was still the same old mess. Gao Yuan didn't take him seriously. Reporting to him was just a routine. From the composition of Gao Yuan's core lineage. Zheng Jun knew that it was impossible for him to get into the eyes of this young guy.

However, after being incorporated into this defense zone, Zheng Jun and Chima County under his control still gained one benefit, that is, the Donghu people no longer rob. Because of the Donghu small tribe outside this defense zone. Basically swept away by Gao Yuan.

This incident made Zheng Jun take a high look at this guy who hadn't even grown up yet (Zheng Jun called Gao Yuan in his heart). The Donghu people's looting of Fufeng, Chima and other places has a long history, and now it is thanks to this guy. Chima people can finally live a comfortable life for a few days.

Without external harassment and destruction, Zheng Jun, a simple bureaucrat, is at his fingertips. Under his governance, although Chima is not as strong as Fufeng, people's livelihood is getting better day by day. This county magistrate is also very popular with the local people. people support. You know, Fufeng is so powerful. It's not because Wu Kai is so good, but because Zhengdong's mansion is in Fufeng, Gaoyuan's foundation is in Fufeng, and there is no comparison between Chima and Fufeng.

Although Gao Yuan didn't show much interest in Zheng Jun. However, this professional bureaucrat still showed his professionalism. However, Zheng Jun did not compromise on the implementation of the policies promoted by Gao Yuan. After joining Sihai Commerce and Trade, those wealthy gentry in Chima had doubts, but under Zheng Jun's Under the vigorous encouragement, almost all the wealthy Chima merchants joined in. In fact, Zheng Jun knew very well that

With the support of Gao Yuan, Sihai Trading is definitely a big crocodile. If a rich businessman from Chima joins in, it is a profitable business. The more people join, the more he can earn in Chima. Is it taxed?

What really made Zheng Jun's heart fluctuate like still water was what happened after the new chief shi, Jiang Jiaquan, took office. This highly trusted guy occupied the high position of Chief History of Zhengdong Mansion as soon as he came, and this long history set his sights on Zheng Jun not long after he took office. In just a few months, Zheng Jun was recruited several times.

Zheng Jun could feel that this long history valued him.

Zheng Jun also has arrogance. This kind of arrogance is rooted in the heart of a scholar. At the same time, it is also the resentment of being excluded for many years and not being reused for his ability. I thought to myself that my ability is several grades higher than that of Wu Kai who can only sell wine, but I can't enter the core of Zhengdong Mansion like him, so I am naturally quite aggrieved.

Now, being favored by the chief official of the Zhengdong Mansion, perhaps his career will usher in a turning point.

After thinking about it, Zheng Jun finally came to pay New Year's greetings to Gao Yuan. No matter what, Gao Yuan is now General Zhengdong and his immediate boss, and he would not lose face if he came to pay New Year's greetings to him.

Serving tea, exchanging greetings, and after some courtesies, both the host and the guest quieted down. Zheng Jun had nothing to say. This was the first time he was alone with Gao Yuan. He didn't know what the boss liked, so he really had nothing to say. Said, but Gao Yuan was quietly looking at this character.

To be honest, Zheng Jun really didn't enter his heart before. The magistrate of Chima seemed to have a sense of alienation from himself, and Gao Yuan couldn't treat him as unreservedly as he did to Wu Kai until Jiang Jiaquan approached him. Only by himself, he really paid attention to the county magistrate who had been neglected by him for a long time.

Under his gaze, Zheng Jun didn't show much uneasiness, he was still sitting there calmly, but his expression was a bit awkward.

Thinking of Jiang Jiaquan's evaluation of this person, Gao Yuan nodded secretly. This person is really a good and qualified official. The ability to dig the corner of Fufeng is not bad.

"Wu Kai County Magistrate Wu is no longer the magistrate of Fufeng!" Gao Yuan said suddenly.

Zheng Jun didn't expect Gao Yuan's first sentence to be like this, but he was stunned for a while before he said, "Master Wu is highly respected in Fufeng Deji, why did he leave his job?"

Gao Yuan smiled, "He has another appointment. Once he leaves, the post of magistrate of Fufeng County will be vacant. Is Mr. Zheng interested?"

Zheng Jun was startled. Although Fufeng and Chima are on the same level, the status of Fufeng County is obviously higher. If he was transferred from Chima to Fufeng, he would be promoted by half a rank. He weighed it for a while, but gave Gao Yuan a Unexpected answer, "General Gao, if this is not an order but a question, my answer is, I don't want to."

Gao Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and didn't ask Zheng Jun why he didn't want to, but nodded, "Well, I see, Master Zheng, as soon as the weather gets warmer after the Chinese New Year, I will attack the Eastern Army. What do you think about the expedition? Or is there anything you want to remind me of?"

Zheng Jun was very unexpected again. It seemed that Gao Yuan couldn't ask anyone else to ask himself such a question. This general, every question was so unexpected that he really didn't think about it. However, after frowning and thinking for a moment, he opened his mouth.

"General, Zheng Jun doesn't understand the matter of conquest, and he dare not speak nonsense, but under the general's adjustment, the Zhengdong Army has become an elite army, invincible and invincible. That's a natural thing. One thing, the general needs to take care of it." Zheng Jun said.

"Well, talk about it!" Gao Yuan leaned forward, eager to hear what this person Jiang Changshi valued very much thought.

"Logistics!" Zheng Jun said.

"General, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. This time the war will not be led by the general, but by Taiwei Zhou, and the relationship between the general and the Taiwei does not seem to be very good!"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing, the relationship between him and Zhou Yuan was not only bad, it was like the relationship between water and fire.

"Go ahead!"

Zheng Jun swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he naturally knew about the grievances and resentments between Gao Yuan and his superiors. At this time, in a hurry, I just followed my intuition to analyze it.

"In this Eastern Expedition, the Eastern Expedition Army will definitely come out in full force, so the logistics of the army must be deployed by the Taiwei in a unified way. If you are victorious, you will be more dangerous. It can be said that every time the general takes a step forward, the danger will increase." Zheng Jun glanced at Gao Yuan, seeing that he was listening to his words very seriously, he became a little more courageous.

"But this time the logistical planning is coordinated by Zhang Junshou, and Zhang Junshou will not go out." Gao Yuan said.

"Mr. Zhang may not be able to withstand the pressure of the Taiwei, especially when the battle is about to be won." Zheng Jun shook his head.

"What do you think of Governor Zhang?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile.

"Twenty years ago, a good man was brave and resourceful, but twenty years later, he is just an ordinary sheriff, a miser!" Gao Yuan was greatly surprised by Zheng Jun's evaluation of Zhang Shouyue. All I could think about was how to keep what he had in his hands, and he didn't have the slightest desire to forge ahead. General, I know that you have a good relationship with the county guard, but I still want to say that if things go on like this, sooner or later Liaoxi will be someone else's property. "

Gao Yuan's heart skipped a beat. This Zheng Jun really has some skills. Jiang Jiaquan's vision of seeing people is indeed extraordinary.

"So general, this time the Eastern Expedition, no matter what, you have to be careful about the logistics." He suddenly sighed: "It's just that the ability of Fufeng Chima is not enough to support the General's Eastern Expedition. In the end, it will be held in the hands of others.”

"In your opinion, how can I solve this dilemma?" Gao Yuan asked.

"This subordinate doesn't know. What I want to say is that we can only do everything possible to gather more food and grass, and then we can be self-sufficient." Zheng Jun spread his hands.

Gao Yuan laughed loudly, "Well, what you said makes sense. Mr. Zheng, you come to be the magistrate of Fufeng County. This time it's not a discussion, but an order."

Zheng Jun was stunned for a while, "Yes, General, the subordinates will come to take up the post next year."

Gao Yuan waved his hand and said, "Fufeng and Chima counties will be merged. As you know, these two counties are the defense zone allocated to me by Zhang Junshou. This time, the two counties will be merged into one, and the administration of Chima County will be cancelled. All divisions will be merged into Fufeng County, and you will be the magistrate of Fufeng County."

Zheng Jun left the General's Mansion with a feeling of shock. Looking at his back, Gao Yuan showed a smile. This time the Eastern Expedition must have many things happen. Putting Zheng Jun in this seat is actually a A kind of test, if he can successfully pass this test, he will be able to enter the core of Zhengdong Mansion.

This person is capable and discerning. Thinking of Zheng Jun's evaluation of Zhang Shouyue, Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing.
