Chapter 589 The right to know Hangzhou military affairs 35
Wu Xuan hurriedly bowed slightly, took out a big red list, and said respectfully: "My father learned that Uncle Shi is running an academy to promote culture and education, and specially ordered my nephew to donate [-] guan, a hundred pieces of cloth and silk, and do my best to look forward to Uncle Shi Laughing."

Wang Xiu didn't expect Wu Xuan to give gifts. Last time, he didn't pay bribes, but just brought some souvenirs. It seems that the old fox of the Wu family put his mind to it!Want to keep the relationship going.Since people give money and donate to the academy, he can't refuse it. Ten thousand dollars can buy twenty big houses. Wouldn't it be a pity not to accept it?Anyway, when the academy was in need of money, it didn't fall into his own pocket. At worst, it was left on the merit tablet and left in the name of the Wu family, which was also an account for them.

After Zong Liang accepted the list, he said slowly, "I thank your father on behalf of the academy for such a precious gift."

Seeing that Wang Xiu accepted it, Wu Xuan was very happy, and hurriedly said: "My father said that Uncle Shi ran the academy to promote culture and education, but it cost a lot of money. How dare he thank you for offering some kindness to the academy to buy some land?" .”

"It's rare for your father to have such a heart. Uncle Ji is going to go to sea with the fleet?" Wang Xiu smiled lightly. He really didn't care about the other party's small thoughts.

"That's right, my nephew is going to experience the customs outside the territory." Wu Xuan looked impatient and anxious.

"It's a good thing to go out and wander around. Are you going to Fusang?" Wang Xiu thought.

"Exactly."

"Well, Fusang has a lot of silver, so you can bring back more. What the imperial court lacks is the coin!" Wang Xiu had an idea in his heart, the gold of Sri Lankan Buddha, and the silver of Little Japan, that is a great wealth!It would be a fool to let it go.

"Little nephew, remember, by the way, there is one more thing that I have to report to Uncle Shi." Wu Xuan's face became serious.

Wang Xiu didn't care about Wu Xuan's attitude, she smiled and said: "What's the matter?"

"Uncle Shi, do you still remember the Maritime Safety Administration, Uncle Shi summoned merchants to buy and sell salt and tea, that Han Xuanzhou who blatantly disobeyed?"

Wu Xuan peeked at Wang Xiuruo thinking, nodded slowly, and then said cautiously: "Han Xuanzhou failed to take pictures of the tea plantation, and returned to Xingzai that day. Uncle's proposals for political affairs are harsh."

Han Xuanzhou, the minister of the household department, and Wang Xiu had already learned through secret channels that Han Xiaozhou and Hu Anguo, a minister of the Hanlin Academy, openly contradicted the new military system. Han Xiaozhou even said that he had different ambitions.Not only that, but the attitudes of Zhao Ding, Zhang Jun and others are also very ambiguous. They are very close to the Han family, which has already made him quite unhappy. How can Zhang Jun be his same year, and Zhao Ding is also someone he helped. Even if the ideas are different, it is a bit difficult to accept going against him.

Wu Xuan's understatement aroused his anger. He doesn't care what others think, and he can try to improve it as gently as possible. He is more willing to use compromise methods to give up fame and fortune to others in order to strive for a balance of interests.

However, gentleness, compromise and balance do not mean cowardice, let alone being unprincipled. He can understand Zhao Ding, Zhang Jun, and even tolerate Zhang Qiyuan. It is really intolerable that the total opposition has developed into a personal attack on him.

Just as he can't tolerate Zhu Song, it's understandable that people have different opinions on things. Everyone can discuss together, minimize conflicts, and maximize personal interests under the great interests. moral issues.

They do have merit, but their unprincipled character is definitely not the talent needed by the court.

Wu Xuan felt Wang Xiu's sharp gaze swept over him, and he shivered suddenly. There was clearly a chilling murderous intent in this gaze. He never thought that the gentle and refined Wang Xiu would have such a murderous intent.

Suddenly, he thought that this is Hangzhou, where the Liangzhe Road ruled. When Fang La swept across the six counties of Liangzhe Road, there was almost no one to defend him.He took the lead in launching a counter-offensive, beheaded tens of thousands of captives in the First World War, and was dubbed a human slaughterer. Years of light wind and drizzle made others forget Wang Xiu's ruthlessness.

"Zixi Salt Field is the largest salt field in Hangzhou. It is rich in fine and delicious sea salt. It must be a good business."

Wu Xuan was in a daze, thinking about Wang Xiu's methods, when he suddenly heard this sentence that didn't refer to the previous paragraph, what he said was very to the point, without the slightest bit of murderous intent just now.He couldn't figure out Wang Xiu's intentions, and said in a panic, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, after my nephew goes to sea, I will send a capable shopkeeper from my home to manage it."

"By the way, this time you go to Fusang to do business, I have to ask you one more thing." Wang Xiu decided to ask Wu Xuan to undertake his task.

Wu Xuan was taken aback, and flattered, he said: "Uncle Shi can arrange anything, and nephew can do anything."

"For this trip, we need to inquire more about the customs and customs of Fusang, as well as the power of their domestic princes. It is best to bring a few envoys from the Machine Speed ​​Division and the Staff Fang Division."

Wu Xuan gritted his teeth for a while, and clearly asked him to bring a spy to do business. What kind of thing is this?However, he also sniffed out the opportunity. How could Wang Xiu ask him to do things for nothing?It will not be so easy to recognize him, but it will definitely bring him huge long-term benefits.

He is not a pedantic person either. He weighed the pros and cons and came to the conclusion that the pros outweigh the cons. He immediately said in a deep voice: "Uncle Shi, don't worry, my nephew will never disappoint."

Wang Xiu nodded, admiring Wu Xuan's decisiveness, and said nothing more.

Under Zong Liang's wink, Wu Xuan understood that it was time to resign, so he said: "Uncle Shi is busy with work, so my nephew will not disturb you."

Wang Xiu looked at Wu Xuan, smiled and said: "That's fine, your father is the first philanthropist to donate to the academy, and the academy should set up a Wenlin stele to record it. Brother, send Uncle Ji out."

It is a great honor for scholars to set up a monument and promote culture and education. Although Yuquanshan Academy is private, Wang Xiu is the head of the mountain!Donating [-] yuan is worth it. As for what to do next, Wu Xuan will naturally understand.The key is that Wang Xiu ordered him to do things. This is the most important thing, as long as he is worth being used.

Wu Xuan went out, Zong Liang sent it to the door, and said meaningfully: "There will be envoys coming in a few days. Sir, he attaches great importance to overseas affairs, and he must treat it as a major event."

"Brother don't worry, younger brother understands." Wu Xuan answered seriously.

"Oh, Fatty, Shiro is here."

Wang Xiu didn't take Wu Xuan seriously, but was just playing a shot. He was reading the tabloids when he saw Zong Liang bring Zhang Ling and Lin Silang in.

Before he could speak, Zhang Ling's fat face trembled excitedly, and he said in a trembling voice: "Shan Zhang, Shan Zhang succeeded."

Zhang Ling, who was full of fat and trembling, and Lin Silang, who was giggling with flickering eyes, Wang Xiu's heart was agitated, and the tabloid in his hand fell down.
