Chapter 57: Make suggestions




Yun'an quickly recalled Zhong Xiaoting's message: Zhong Xiaoting was Lin
Buxian's fellow brother, from Luocheng in Longdong, and was born in a poor
family. According to Lin Buxian's description, he was talented. +++ Popular
Tanmei Novels: www.mtlnovel.com\nLin Buxian got acquainted with Zhong Xiaoting through a teacher named Du, and
saw that he came from a poor background and didn't even have the money to rush
the exam, so he funded Zhong Xiaoting a sum of silver through Mr. Du, and
Zhong Xiaoting lived up to the expectations of the judges. After returning to
Los Angeles, he brought gifts to thank you. After hearing that, Master Lin
personally hosted Zhong Xiaoting. Seeing Zhong Xiaoting was well-mannered and
had a good conversation. He had no background and used his own knowledge to
make a living, so he moved the merchants' alliance. Mindful, Zhong Xiaoting
seems to have agreed to Master Lin's agreement that Lin Buxian and his second
son will follow his mother (sexual xing) to prop up the lintel of the Lin
Mansion, so this marriage can be regarded as a verbal agreement between Zhong
Xiaoting and Master Lin. Down.\nLin Buxian gave Zhong Xiaoting another entanglement to enter Beijing, and
after waiting for Zhong Xiaoting to be inscribed on the gold list, he returned
to Los Angeles to fulfill the marriage contract.\nWho knows, this son of Zhong is a copy of Chen Shimei, the high school
explorer, who openly declared that he is not married at the Qionglin banquet,
the emperor pointed out Zhong Xiaoting's marriage to the third wife of the
household secretary, Zhong Xiao For his official career, Ting happily agreed,
and said that the Hubu Shangshu also had a lot of background, and the
concubine of the current emperor is the relative sister of the Hubu Shangshu.
Yun'an remembered that Lin Buxian had told him that the Lin Mansion received
an exact secret report that Zhong Xiaoting and the Hubu Shangshu were
embarrassed (rape jian) and planned to "fulfil the marriage contract". Never
forget the kindness. In fact, it was coveting the property of Lin Mansion. In
order to break the conspiracy of Shang Shu Mansion, Master Lin and the prefect
of Los Angeles reached an agreement to get married, and made a "great
marriage" with great fanfare. As a result, another protagonist of this "good
marriage", Li Yuan Li Gongzi regretted on the spot and pulled himself as a
target.\nSeeing Yun'an silent, Lin Wei said in deep thought: "This Zhong Xiaoting Jinke
made the list and won the search flower. His Majesty gave it to the third lady
of Shangshufu at the Qionglin banquet. Zhong Xiaoting approached him. The big
tree of Shangshu Mansion has been steadily growing. The old man received a
secret report from the fast horse that Zhong Xiaoting has been appointed as a
fellow in Los Angeles, and he will bring his new wife back to Los Angeles to
take office."\nThe official position of "Tongzhi" is known to Yunan. In the ancient history
of Blue Star, in most cases, prefects were considered as positive grade four,
and Tongzhi was considered as positive grade five. A prefecture had one
prefect, and the position of Tongzhi was not limited. Most of them are two or
three people, and there are also state capitals that do not set up Tongzhi. If
the prefect is the mayor, then Tongzhi is equivalent to the deputy mayor in
charge, and the mayor is the chief executive of a city, in charge of the
overall situation. The deputy mayor generally has special affairs, such as the
deputy mayor in charge of maintaining stability and public security, the
deputy mayor in charge of education and health, etc...\nTongzhi is probably the same concept. There are those who are responsible for
public security, theft, arrest, and prison, and those who are responsible for
Diansi, household registration, and those who are responsible for river
engineering, water transportation, and water conservancy. There are also those
who are responsible for military status and Fusui in border areas. In matters
such as the people and barbarians, the power of this kind of confidant is
relatively large in the end, and it is usually directly assigned by the court
and not under the control of the prefect.\nHowever, as far as Yun'an knows, Los Angeles is not a border city, so the last
type of homology will not be established.\nAs the saying goes, "Knowing yourself and the enemy can survive a hundred
battles." The three words "Zhong Xiaoting" alone are enough to make Yunan take
it seriously, and Yunan asked: "Father, is Tongzhi the fifth grade, the same
deputy prefect. ?"\n"Well, there are already two co-knowns in Los Angeles. Now that the court
assigns another one, it doesn’t matter, but..." Lin Wei paused and continued:
"Many things in the city have been assigned to the other two co-knowns. Now,
only Hegong is left. The water transport has not yet been specifically in
charge of Tongzhi. In the past, the prefects were personally responsible. When
the new Tongzhi arrives, he is likely to be responsible for this matter."\nLin Buxian explained at the right time: "Thirty miles outside of Los Angeles,
there is a Luo River that extends in all directions. 80% of the foreign shops
in Luocheng, Lin Mansion, all transportation takes the waterway and passes
through the Luohe Wharf."\nYun An exclaimed, "Isn't that the enemy's throat choked?!"\nLin Wei looked at Yun'an. Although Yun'an wasn't too gentle, he explained the
key point.\n"An'er, what do you think of this matter?"\nYun'an opened his mouth and wanted to say: try to reduce water transportation
to avoid being pinched into the hands of others.\nBut after thinking about it, I felt that I was a little unconsidered. The Lin
Mansion's business is so huge, and water transportation needs docks. In order
to build this commercial network, Lin Mansion has built many docks in various
places. How can I stop and stop?\nWater transportation is considered the safest transportation route in this
era, not one of them. It is inevitable that you will encounter bandit (strong
qiang) thief by land. Although you may also encounter Jiangyang thief by
water, it is a small probability event after all...\nThis was the first time Lin Buxian's father asked for his opinion. Thinking
about Lin Buxian's words that asked Lin Wei to keep himself, Yun An felt that
he should think twice about what he said.\nYun An pursed his lips, got up, bowed to Master Lin, and solemnly said,
"Father, this is a big deal, please let me let me think about it for a while."\nThere was a trace of consternation in Lin Wei's eyes. Yun'an's reaction
completely exceeded his expectations. I still remember that a few days after
the wedding, he called Yun'an to the study room, and the result was completely
talking to the cow. Since then, Lin Wei felt that Yun'an could not support the
wall with mud, and was basically disappointed.\nHow long has it been? Not only has he learned the ceremony, he has also been
cautious and learned to think.\nLin Buxian put his father's fleeting feelings into his eyes, lowered his eyes,
and raised the corners of his mouth.\nShe has always believed in Yun'an, that her great wisdom is foolish, and she
respects her for keeping a low profile. Although she will not force Yun'an to
do anything for herself, if Yun'an is willing to show herself, Lin Buxian
would be happy to see it.\nThe more he came into contact with him, the more Lin Buxian felt that Yunan
was a jewel who tried to hide his own light. Perhaps it was Yunan's
unfathomable mental arithmetic ability that gave Lin Buxian enough confidence.
Lin Buxian believed that Yunan must be Can say something that makes a
difference.\nLin Wei nodded, Yun An sat back on the chair, raised his fist against his
lips, and fell into thought.\nLin Wei closed his eyes and took a sip from the tea cup. The hall was
extremely quiet, and the father and daughter were patiently waiting for Yun
An's answer.\nAfter a long time, Yunan let out a shallow breath and stood up and replied:
"Father, I think this matter should be divided into three stages and handled
separately."\n"Oh? Your idea is new. Tell me how to split it?"\n"Before Zhong Xiaoting arrived in Los Angeles, Zhong Xiaoting came to Los
Angeles, and Zhong Xiaoting had a plan to divide it into three parts based on
time. This first part, I think our Lin Mansion should actively prepare for the
battle. , I think even the imperial decree of the imperial court probably only
assigned Zhong Xiaoting to Los Angeles as a co-chief. It shouldn’t be detailed
to what kind of work he must be responsible for, and I would also ask my
father to inquire about it. If I say it, Then we have room for operation. As
the saying goes, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one.
Although Zhong Xiaoting is the son-in-law of Shangshufu, his father-in-law
will not come with him? Then when Zhong Xiaoting arrives in Los Angeles, he
will be assigned to him. What kind of work is the prefect? ​​Father can take
this opportunity to reconcile with the prefect, ask him to make internal
personnel transfers, let other colleagues take charge of the water transport
and dock, and let Zhong Xiaoting be responsible for Lin Mansion’s industry is
not very involved. I believe that this matter is not difficult with his
father’s contacts. In the second part, after Zhong Xiaoting arrived in Los
Angeles, it was inconvenient for the lady to come forward. Zhong Xiaoting’s
current status It’s also different. I can’t wait for someone to take the
initiative to visit us. I’m willing to replace the lady to meet Zhong Tongzhi
for a while to see what he wants. If she doesn’t want to, there are countless
ways not to meet with this Zhong Tongzhi alone. At this stage, the Lin Mansion
shouldn’t do too much. It’s better to watch the changes.”\nLin Wei glanced at Lin Buxian. He wanted to know if Yun'an’s remarks were
taught by his daughter. But when he saw Lin Buxian’s calm expression, his eyes
were very soft. He didn’t think she was teaching them. The rhetoric is indeed
not like my daughter's style.\nLin Wei stroked his beard and nodded. In the past ten days, Yunan's progress
was amazing. He was very satisfied. Lin Wei asked, "What then?"\n"As far as I know, in order to avoid suspicion, officials generally avoid
returning to their hometowns when appointing officials. Therefore, Zhong
Xiaoting can return to Los Angeles in the first year of office. Shangshufu
should have done a lot of effort here. , They should have a heartless heart,
coveting the family property of the Lin Mansion, and I have been married to
the lady for so long, presumably the news should have also reached the
capital, and the monk Zhong Xiaoting and Shang Shufu know that the lady is
married, and he can do so shamelessly. The matter must have come prepared. I
guess Li Zhifu can only postpone it for a while, and it won’t be long before
there will be a delegation from the capital to let Zhong Xiaoting be
responsible for the water transport and the dock. My opinion is that During
the period before Zhong Xiaoting was not in power, the Lin Mansion should
actively prepare to set up escorts, hire escorts, and open Lin’s post stations
in various places, and gradually reduce the proportion of water transport from
Los Angeles to prevent changes. Ting wants to carry out the shamelessness to
the end, and we can also see tricks, which is better than being caught off
guard."\nLin Wei was very satisfied with Yun'an's answer. Yun'an's thoughts coincided
with Lin Wei's thoughts, but these thoughts were only thought of by Lin Wei
after three days of contemplation. Yun'an only took such a short time to
think. With such a careful plan, it was a surprise to Lin Wei.\nBut... Lin Wei's heart also gave birth to a resentment. He didn't believe that
Yun An could make such rapid progress in such a short period of time, so he
had deliberately hidden himself before?\nGood you Yunan, I have married you the pearl in my palm that I have been
caring for for half my life. When I talked with you in the study last time,
did you dare to pretend to be stupid?\nMoreover, no matter how Lin Wei thinks about Yun'an, it is an indisputable
fact that Yun'an has become a member of the Lin Mansion. Although Lin Wei was
born in this family, he understands the truth of "Wood Xiu Yu Lin" too. The
stall of Lin Mansion is so big that it is beneficial to hire a muddy beggar
son-in-law. If outsiders know that Yun'an also has great talents, then Lin
Mansion is really dangerous.\nSo Lin Wei scowled and scolded: "Asshole, you see what you are talking about,
it's so vulgar and hard to hear! Mr. Yan is Hongru everyone, don't you learn
even a little bit from him? Is it? Why don’t you even have a sense of awe? You
can easily defame the majestic pillars of the court?!"\n"Xin?"\nLin Buxian was surprised at the scolding of her father at first, but after
hearing the content, Lin Buxian instantly understood her father's intentions.
Yun'an said it was reasonable and rigorous, and it was approved by her father,
so she rebuked him. Zhong didn't say a word of veto, but just grabbed Yun'an's
"etiquette" to talk about things, this is his father's sincere love for
Yun'an.\nHe was worried that Yun'an had become accustomed to being open-minded and
causing trouble, and at the same time he didn't want Yun'an to be complacent
and stand still.\nWhen I first took over the family business, I did a lot of things very well,
but I was often scolded by my father. At that time, I was aggrieved. Lin
Buxian only understood the truth a long time later. If he hadn't really
appreciated Yun'an, his father would never have been like that.\nLin Buxian grabbed Yun'an's cuffs and called out softly, "Msang Gong."\n"Huh?" Yun'an turned his head, his anger already raised his eyebrows.\nLin Buxian wanted to smooth the marks between Yunan's eyebrows, and because
Lin Wei could not do it at the scene, she could only muster the courage to do
something she had never done in 20 years, in front of her father. (Hook gou)
Yun'an's little finger said, "Msang Gong, you must be exhausted along the way,
right? Go back to the room and wait for me, OK? When I go back, I have
something to tell you."
