1635 Han style rises again

Chapter 393 Desire and Obsession ([-])
Cao Xiong absent-mindedly listened to the deduction report of the Luzon War by the General Staff Department, and learned that Qi Dajiang and Zheng Zhilong jointly attacked Luzon, and there should be no serious problems, so he left the military government building in peace and got into his exclusive carriage. .

"Commander, are you going back to the Commander's Mansion?" the guard Cao Wei asked in a low voice.

"Go back to the Commander's Mansion." Cao Xiong felt a little tired, and pressed his temples on both sides with his right index finger and thumb.

Last night, it was the absurd midnight again, when I got into the Persian woman's bed, I couldn't bear to get off.He knew that his concentration was not enough, and it might also be because he had taken the pill that Hu Wenjin gave, which was said to be a good thing that flowed out of the Ottoman palace, which could keep a man's majesty forever.

Although every time he went crazy, he regretted it, it shouldn't be so absurd.But that Persian woman is really captivating, and there are so many tricks on the bed, so that Cao Xiong, who was just a rough man in the army, has never experienced such fun, he can't stop, he can't stop, he can't get tired of it.In recent days, it is inevitable that Han Zhou has been slack in some affairs.Occasionally, he would also feel a little ashamed. Hanzhou was humble at the beginning, and people's livelihood was still difficult. He should be like his nephew Qi Tian, ​​working hard to develop and strengthen Hanzhou, not his absurdity.

However, the more Cao Xiong came into contact with Han Zhou's military and civil affairs, the more he felt powerless.Not to mention that many opportune words are mostly incomprehensible, and even the handling of specific affairs is quite difficult.Although, Qi Tian once said that as a supreme leader, it is not necessary to master the specific rules of doing things.As long as you know how to recognize, employ and control people, and judge the rationality and effectiveness of affairs from the overall situation, you can make corresponding decisions accordingly.

But Cao Xiong is deeply aware of his shortcomings, lack of knowledge, lack of long-term vision, the only good thing is decades of speculation and control of people's hearts, as well as decisive courage and perseverance.It was with the latter that he was able to lead hundreds of rebels from the original Dengzhou navy, travel across the sea, travel thousands of miles, and finally land in Hanzhou to establish this foundation.

However, the development and growth of Hanzhou relied on his nephew, Qi Tian, ​​to make overall plans and advance in an all-round way.The construction of cities and towns, the establishment of workshops, the reclamation of farmland, and even the formation of the army in various parts of Hanzhou are inseparable from Qi Tian's guidance and suggestions.

Sometimes, every time Cao Xiong saw a certain development achievement of Hanzhou, he would feel lucky from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for Qitian, even if Cao Xiong occupied Hanzhou, it would be nothing more than a bandit den.Unlike now, Hanzhou seems to have roughly the embryonic form of a country.

"So, our Hanzhou can be away from anyone, as long as Qitian is there, Hanzhou will definitely develop and become stronger!" After Cao Xiong finished speaking, he took a glass and poured the wine into his stomach in one gulp.

"That's natural." Hu Wenjin smiled unnaturally, and said: "However, no matter how talented Qi Tian is, he is still your nephew, isn't he? The most inseparable thing in Hanzhou is the commander-in-chief. Without you , How did Hanzhou come together? It’s been a long time ago that his mother went his own way and fell apart.”

"Old Hu, what you said seems to feel that there are still many old people in Hanzhou who are dissatisfied with Qi Tian?" Cao Xiong looked at Hu Wenjin closely, "Who is there, tell me."

When Hu Wenjin heard the words, he couldn't help but hesitate, and said carefully: "After all, Hanzhou was founded by the commander-in-chief. We all followed you all the way from Dengzhou to this place. Naturally, you are the only one to follow in everything. At this time, Qi Tian is not You're still young, so you can't convince the public for the time being."

"Qi Tian is 21 this year, and he will get married in March, so he is already an adult." Cao Xiong smiled, "When we were our age, we were still hanging out in the Dengzhou Navy, and we only knew how to fill in every day. A full stomach. As for how to build counties and towns and manage tens of thousands of people, which one of us has the ability?"

As he said that, Cao Xiong looked at Hu Wenjin, then at Yu Fukun, and said mockingly: "We people are rough people to put it bluntly. Fighting people, fighting for life at sea, is a good hand. But if Jianshe People's livelihood, to help the development of Hanzhou, we can't do it. So, we must be self-aware and not hold back."

"I thought about it. After Qi Tian got married, I will slowly hand over the big and small affairs of Hanzhou to Qi Tian. I will be lazy and sit in the commander's mansion to help him set up a place. I think, sometimes, it's gone. Our shackles, maybe Qitian will develop Hanzhou faster and better!"
-
"Crack!" A wine glass was smashed on the ground, and the hearts of the Persian women couldn't help trembling, and they peeked at the man lying by the wall.

"Get out!" Hu Wenjin shouted in a low voice.

"Haha..." Seeing the Persian woman exiting the room in a panic, Hu Wenjin laughed nervously.

"Damn it, in this world, there are people who really don't like power and wealth!" Hu Wenjin laughed, and muttered: "I see you are purely negligent in politics, and don't want to waste your brain to govern our Hanzhou !"

Yesterday, during the banquet at the Commander's Mansion, Cao Xiong vaguely revealed that after Qi Tian got married, he would gradually hand over the power of the Commander's Mansion and the military government to Qi Tian.And he was only the nominal commander of Hanzhou, presided over some symbolic affairs of Hanzhou, and wholeheartedly supported Qi Tian to gradually take over the power of the entire Hanzhou.At the same time, I did not forget to ask the old brothers present not to be arrogant and domineering, but to fully support Qitian's various policies.

During this period, Cao Xiong also promised that the prosperity of the old brothers in the future will definitely be indispensable for a hundred years.Even if the descendants are ineffective, they can rely on the shares of Hanzhou General Trading Co., Ltd. and the continuous dividends, so that they can eat and drink for several generations without worrying about it.

After hearing this, Hu Wenjin felt extremely bitter. After several years of planning and management, it was all in vain just because Cao Xiong wanted to transfer the power of Hanzhou ahead of schedule.He didn't believe that Qi Tian would be ignorant of his little moves.Every time he saw Qi Tian's calm expression and his insight into everything, he felt extremely awkward and deeply afraid.

As Cao Xiong said, as long as you help Qi Tian with peace of mind, everyone can have a good future and a prosperous life in the future.If he hadn't done those tricks against Qi Tian, ​​perhaps, as Cao Xiong said, as one of the oldest founders of Hanzhou, Hu Wenjin and his descendants could naturally enjoy Hanzhou in peace. Gradually develop all the bonuses after becoming strong.

However, nothing can be assumed.Hu Wenjin sometimes asked himself, fleeing all the way from the coast of Daming to Hanzhou, he seemed to have no grudges with Qitian, so since when did he have the idea of ​​​​preventing Qitian from inheriting the power of Hanzhou?And why should I have this idea?

"Ah!" Suddenly hearing a woman's exclamation from outside, Hu Wenjin suddenly woke up, subconsciously about to stand up, ready to take the long knife in the corner.

"Damn it, every time I see you, I can't help it..." The voice of the black-clothed guard commander Guan Zongxiang came from outside the house, and then he heard a room outside being kicked away by someone, the man was arrogant In the laughter, the woman's whisper was faintly hidden.

Hu Wenjin breathed a sigh of relief, threw the drawn long knife to the ground, and poured water on the ground contemptuously.

"Damn it, rough man!"

Two quarters of an hour later, Guan Zongxiang appeared in front of Hu Wenjin with a satisfied face.

"Well, it's a day to be able to enjoy it." Hu Wenjin squinted at Guan Zongxiang, then picked up the flagon and started drinking again.

"I also feel that the past few years have been the most comfortable period of time for me." Guan Zongxiang also sat down beside Hu Wenjin, snatched the jug from his hand, and poured it into his mouth vigorously.

"In the future, even if I die, I have no regrets." After Guan Zongxiang finished drinking the jug, he threw it into the corner of the room.

"What about your sons and daughters? What about them?"

"...The commander-in-chief, seeing our previous affection, should let them live well."

"What happens after the commander-in-chief dies?"

"...I used to be alone, I can't control the long-term."

"But I... can't be reconciled."

Guan Zongxiang looked at Hu Wenjin with a gloomy face, and couldn't help laughing.

"Old Hu, you are the one who enjoys the most in Hanzhou! What's the matter, do you still want to live like this for the rest of your life?"

"Why not?"

"Qi Tian knows what we have done, and sooner or later it will kill us."

"If so... shall we take his life first?"

"If we want Qi Tian's life, the commander-in-chief knows and can kill us all alive!"

"If you do it, is there any way you can hide it from everyone?"

"You... really want to kill Qi Tian?"

"For the future, you and I can continue to live, he can only die first."

"Then..., that requires a long-term plan and careful planning." Guan Zongxiang was a little flustered for a while.

"Let's hurry up, while Qi Dajiang is still in Luzon and Zheng Zhilong's people are attacking the Spaniards, and have not yet returned to Hanzhou." Hu Wenjin said eagerly.

"Qi Dalu is still in Jianye City."

"He was robbed of his post in the army by the commander-in-chief. Now he is just a small soldier, so there should be nothing to worry about." Hu Wenjin stared at Guan Zongxiang, "Could it be that you don't dare to do it?"

"...Old Hu, actually think about it carefully, Qi Tian has no enmity with us, on the contrary, under his governance, our Hanzhou is developing very well, and our strength is also increasing day by day." Guan Zong After a moment of silence, Xiang said softly, "We really want to..."

"In this world, life is still the same without anyone!" Hu Wenjin said: "The development and strength of Hanzhou is not due to our many workshops and mines in Hanzhou, and our powerful soldiers? Even if there is no Qitian, our According to the current development momentum of our Hanzhou, we can still grow slowly. We used to have no enmity with Qitian, but whoever called us old, in the future development of Hanzhou, we have a natural relationship with him. Not all the way. Instead of being suppressed and squeezed out by him sooner or later, and even wiped out, it is better for us to strike first!"

"Among the black-clothed guards, I control at most half of the people. Among the patrol team, only Lao Song from Jianye City leaned towards us, and Zhang Jiawen from the coastal defense team had an unclear attitude. In this way, we are not sure of controlling the entire Jianye City." Zong Xiang said worriedly.

"Who said you want to control Jianye City!" Hu Wenjin laughed. "The commander-in-chief is still here, and we are not rebelling. You only need to arrange an accident to let Qitian die suddenly, and that is enough."

Killing Qi Tian and ruining Han Zhou's future successor, isn't this a rebellion?

"Qi Tian is dead, so the future master of Hanzhou can only be the son of the Grand Commander. Now we can keep close to him and help him wholeheartedly. Our children can also play with him, go to school, and play with him. Grow up. In this way, our wealth can be maintained for at least two generations. In the future, our family will be like the princes and nobles of Ming Dynasty, and become the powerful family of Hanzhou."
