There is nothing wrong with what Monday said. He really is not from the Kaiyang Empire now, he was just created on the Kaiyang Empire, and Monday really doesn't know who the current emperor is. who?Even after accepting the cover, Monday did not inquire carefully.

"Although I don't know if what Shopkeeper Zhou said is true or not, but now in this Kaiyang Empire, some things are beyond our control, especially today's emperor, Li Xiao will this When Daofeng is ordered, I am afraid that there will be no choice for shopkeeper Zhou."

Zhou Wenyan also nodded. This is indeed the case. He also knows that the current emperor has given him such a high-ranking position. If he refuses directly, I am afraid that he will not give him face too much. At that time, no matter what he says, it will be his own fault, because the emperor did not give you status, but you don't want it. Since you don't want him, you can have thousands of reasons to say that you are disloyal to Kaiyang Empire.

"So the first time I learned about this, I hurriedly notified you, Mr. Sun. In this Kaiyang Empire, the only person I can trust now is Mr. Sun."

Although Sun Zhongli was very happy after hearing Monday's words, Sun Zhongli still had to feel helpless for Monday's optimism.

Now is not a situation that can be easily dealt with. Now, if you are not careful, you may offend the current court, and then you will never be able to recover.

This situation, Sun Zhongli will never let it happen. If the situation that has been created through hard work is now taken over by Cao Qing today, I am afraid that it will be destroyed in a short time. Where can people who have just lived happily ever after?

"Although shopkeeper Zhou said that you have some understanding of the current situation, but I still want to remind this protector of the country again, I still don't want you to take over."

Sun Zhongli thought about it for a while, but still said what was in his heart. Don't talk about it this time. The purpose of his visit was to dissuade Monday from taking over the title of Duke Protector.

He also nodded after hearing the words on Monday, which he really didn't want to be. Now that Sun Zhongli said so, it was also in his heart, so he said.

"Mr. Sun's thoughts are almost the same as mine, and I don't want to be the so-called protector of the country, let's not say what he needs to do, just such a position may make me busy. And I don't know much about the Kaiyang Empire, so after accepting it, I'm afraid I will be excluded by many people in the court."

Sun Zhongli didn't expect that Monday would think so, if that's the case, then he wouldn't use it to persuade him today, just give him a way to refuse.

"Does Mr. Zhou really think so? This is the protector of the country. Although this title does not have much substantive power, it is second only to the emperor, and the highest is only for the prime minister. He will be polite when he sees you on weekdays."

Hearing this on Monday, he couldn't help laughing. He really didn't know that Duke Protector had such great power.

"What Mr. Sun said is true. This Duke Protector can actually be compared to the Prime Minister. What kind of official position is this?"

"Since Shopkeeper Zhou doesn't know anything, then I will explain to Shopkeeper Zhou in detail, what kind of position is this Protector of the State, and what kind of things will Manager Zhou face if he becomes the Protector of the State? ."

Zhou Zhang heard the words and pointed out that this is the crux of the problem. He really needs to ask Sun Zhongli to analyze it for him.

"In a sense, this protector of the country is an official position that protects the life of the people of a country, but if it is in a peaceful era, the protector chain has no special requirements, and only needs to maintain the frontier. Safe, that's fine, but there are also guards here to protect the country and justice. It is a very leisurely position, but if there is a war, then the protector of the country will stand up as soon as possible. , let's not talk about the matter of leading troops to fight, let's just say that the food, grass and military supplies, the protector of the country will solve it as soon as possible, and now the current emperor, the reason for inviting you to be the protector of the country is also At this point, there are many civilian industries under Zhou’s hands today, and if these industries really come to wartime, they can be used with zero investment, and they don’t need to spend a single bit of money.”

After Sun Zhongli finished speaking, he observed Monday's expression to see how Monday would react after hearing the news?However, after hearing about this on Monday, there was not much fluctuation. Obviously, he was not very concerned about these things. Sun Zhongli, who saw this, had to continue talking.

"Now the Kaiyang Empire has just fought against the Han Chong Empire. Although it is in a losing situation, the Tianshui Empire, which is adjacent to the Kaiyang Empire, has also lost. Then Li Xiao will start a war as soon as possible to attack the Tianshui Empire. At that time, what the shopkeeper Zhou does will be involuntarily. Even if the shopkeeper Zhou is unwilling, he will be forced to provide military supplies to the army. Supplies, and food supplies."

Chapter 31 It's Not Too Good

When he heard this on Monday, he interrupted Sun Zhongli. He really didn't understand why Li Xiao was so eager to attack the Tianshui Empire.

"Do these things Mr. Sun said have specific sources, or is it just a guess by Mr. Sun, the situation in the Kaiyang Empire is not very optimistic now, although most people's lives have settled down, but If you want to return to normal, it will take a lot of time, if you attack the Yang Empire at this juncture, wouldn’t you be too eager to achieve it?”

Hearing this, Sun Zhongli shook his head. She thought the same at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she figured it out.

"I'm afraid that the shopkeeper Zhou doesn't understand the situation in the Water Empire today. There are leaders like the Lanzhou shopkeeper in the Kaiyang Empire, so it's only now recovering so well, but in the Tianshui Empire, although their court wants to Recovery, but there is some feeling of powerlessness, so today's Tianshui Empire, compared to Kaiyang Empire, is like a child who has just grown up, facing a young man, such a disparity, the shopkeeper next week will be I understand why the Kaiyang Empire will attack the Tianshui Empire."

Zhou Wenyan also sighed. If this is the case, it is understandable, but now the Kaiyang Empire has just begun to recover. Under such a situation, the overall situation of sending troops is not an increase. A burden on the people?

"Mr. Sun, when you came here today, you must have already thought of how to reject this Duke Protector's argument. Otherwise, Mr. Sun will definitely not come to me."

The matter has already come to this point, and there is no need to learn more about it on Monday. He already understands that this Protector of the Kingdom himself must not be wanted, if he really becomes the Protector of the Kingdom. , then it is not only the destruction of the people in the Kaiyang Empire, but also a heavy blow to the people in the Tianshui Empire.

"Of course I have an idea on this point, otherwise I wouldn't be here to discourage shopkeeper Zhou today, but if this sentence is implemented, I'm afraid there will be some risks. After all, today's emperors are not very easy to deal with. , he is now almost determined to let you be the protector of the country. If shopkeeper Zhou directly refuses after receiving such an order, then he will definitely be angry, even if shopkeeper Zhou is for this The people in the Kaiyang Empire have done so many things, and when that time comes, Li Xiao will confuse right and wrong."

Sun Zhongli said this, which made Monday feel a little helpless. He didn't expect this matter to develop into such a situation. Could it be that he, the protector of the country, is inappropriate in the current situation and should be treated accordingly. Yet?

"Mr. Sun, let's just say how to refuse. It's not too late for us to analyze other things. It's been a few days since the edict was delivered to me. If I don't reply, I'm afraid Li Xiao will use it. Other excuses come to trouble me."

Sun Zhongli also nodded when he heard the words, but he ignored this point. Now that there is a lot of time away from the news he knows, if he finds some by himself, I am afraid that he may solve some unnecessary troubles.

"Actually, there was a most appropriate solution to this matter. They thought that Li Xiao said that he did not want to be in such a high position, but it has dragged on for such a long time. If this is proposed again, I am afraid It's a bit of a hassle."

Sun Zhongli also did not expect that this matter has been delayed for so long now, it seems that he can only make other plans.

"Why? Could it be impossible to make such a request now?"

I was a little puzzled on Monday, so what is the difference between what he said earlier and later?Doesn't it all need to be said?

"Is there any difference between them? Mr. Sun, I don't think it's too late for me to say it now."

After listening to Monday's words, Sun Zhongli shook his head, and he had to say that Monday's thoughts were still somewhat singular.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, have you ever thought about the current situation? It's not as simple as you thought. If the people who sent the edict said this, you would go back directly and say that you need A lower official position is enough, then this matter has not been particularly publicized, but after so many days, the matter that the governor will be named as the protector of the country has already spread in this Kaiyang Empire. Now, at this time, if the shopkeeper Zhou says he doesn't want to be qualified for this position, does he have some face to refute Li Xiao?"

After hearing the words on Monday, I also understood. If I said that I had made up my mind at the time and did not want to be the protector of the country, I would have said it directly, I am afraid it will be easier to solve today, and now this matter is still It has really spread a lot, and in the past few days, many people have come to congratulate themselves on becoming the protector of the country.

Thinking of this on Monday, I couldn't help but sigh. I didn't expect this matter to become more difficult to solve because of my momentary hesitation.

Sun Zhongli smiled when he saw Monday's frowning face now, this matter is not so difficult to solve.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, don't give up hope in advance. Although it is not possible to reject this matter perfectly now, shopkeeper Zhou should not forget it. Why did Mr. Li Xiao let shopkeeper Zhou become the protector of the country now? It's because there are so many industries under Mr. Zhou's subordinates, but if Mr. Zhou announces at this time that these industries have nothing to do with Mr. Zhou, then even if he becomes the protector of the country, Li Xiao wants to let Mr. Zhou go. If you do something, shopkeeper Zhou can still refuse, after all, these industries will have nothing to do with shopkeeper Zhou by then."

Thinking about it on Monday, this is indeed a good way, but I am afraid that there are still some risks in doing so.

"Did Mr. Sun think that if I really handed over these industries to others, would Li Xiao directly take action against these people? I'm afraid the ending will be the same then, after all, these things are here, if If they disappear, that's another story."

How could Sun Zhongli not have thought of this, he would naturally know the purpose of consuming the future here, and he would use any means.

Chapter 32 Warning each other

"Manager Zhou, have you ever thought about it this way? If these industries are now not owned by individuals, but by some people, and there are several responsible persons for each industry, then even Li Xiaoxiang will If you want to use these industries, then these people in charge will have different opinions. He will be busy at that time, and now the Kaiyang Empire has just had a little momentum of returning to glory. At this time , If Li Xiao starts with people in these industries, the people in the Kaiyang Empire will not agree with him, and he himself can distinguish the importance of it."

Sun Zhongli is right. If so many properties are in the hands of one person on Monday, then there will be no way for Monday to refuse. In addition, he became the protector of the country. In this matter, he is It is my duty, but if these industries are handed over to other people, and the matter is handed over to many people, if all these people hold a disagreement at that time, even if Li Xiao really wants to use force, he Don't dare to use force against so many people.

"But I'm a bit one-sided in my thinking. I didn't expect Mr. Sun to be a big winner. If I were to do such a thing, I'm afraid it would be quite disturbing."
