Chapter 1024: Each with Their Own Agenda
As he looked bitter, Wang Xingyi comforted him, "I will tell you after I return home that in the next few months, the big merchants and chambers of commerce in Songyuan and Mouguo must take care of the Yangshan Islands."
As soon as the national master spoke, normal trade became a political task, and these big merchants had to cooperate.
He Lingchuan then stood up and bowed to him: "Thank you, national master!"
Wang Xingyi stroked his beard and smiled, thinking that this kid really didn't see the rabbit and didn't release the eagle.
But talents like He Lingchuan who can be independent and can walk through dangers are born with a seven-hole mind, and it's not easy to deceive him. Wang Xingyi knew that when dealing with him, he couldn't treat him with common sense, and he couldn't always suppress him with power.
This kind of person wants respect and space to show his strengths.
After the secret meeting, He Lingchuan put away the barrier and welcomed Fang Canran back.
The two sides talked for a few more words, and He Lingchuan temporarily said goodbye.
Watching his back disappear in the garden, Wang Xingyi's smile also disappeared.
"This kid is targeting Bailie, why didn't you say it earlier?"
His identity in front of Fang Canran was first a fellow apprentice uncle, and then the national master of Mou State, so he spoke much more directly.
Fang Canran was surprised on the surface: "He is interested in Bailie?"
"Will someone like He Xiao always live in a corner of the sea? The Yangshan Islands are surrounded by the sea, and the only direction he can continue to develop is the land. Opposite the islands are nothing more than Qing State and Bailie. Compared with the two, Bailie is weaker." Wang Xingyi sat back in his chair, "He just told me that Bailie secretly plotted against him and asked us to ensure the safety of the islands while he was away."
Fang Canran couldn't help but say: "Uncle Master, this is also the truth, right?"
"Look at what he has done in the past few days. How can Bailie be his opponent and pose a threat to him?" Wang Xingyi snorted, "But he still mentioned Bailie specifically, with bad intentions. Ha, young people still can't keep their temper."
This time, he saw it.
Fang Canran was silent.
Of course, he guessed that He Lingchuan had other intentions. This guy suddenly ran to the sea to set up his own business. Fang Canran had seen his personality and skills. How could he believe that he would be satisfied with being a small island owner?
Indeed, it is more likely that He Lingchuan coveted Bailie.
"I warned him, so he should not dare to act rashly in the short term." Wang Xingyi glanced at him, "Young people are impulsive and passionate, which is understandable. He is a talent that can be cultivated. I don't want to see him make a big mistake and cause irreparable losses. Songyuan, you should also give more advice in normal times and convey the intentions of Mouguo and me."
This sentence is very severe. Fang Canran immediately bowed his head and said "yes".
"Besides, I think his way of dealing with those Bejia people is quite slippery, and he doesn't really want to offend Bejia."
It has been two days since the night of the Bailong people's rebellion. Wang Xingyi has basically figured out the ins and outs of that night.
He Lingchuan and Yu Zecheng were playing chess in Nuanxiangzhai, and many spectators on the side heard their conversation. Others were confused, but Wang Xingyi knew that the two were playing tricks; Yu Zecheng didn't die after the incident, and he lived in the hot spring villa, of course Wang Xingyi knew it.
Fang Canran could see this point: "Can he really do it?"
He Lingchuan killed the monsters of Beijia and imprisoned and extorted the captains of Beijia. How could Lingxu City tolerate such bad behavior?
Fang Canran has been in Lingxu City for 20 years and knows that it is not tolerant to the outside world.
"Yu Zecheng is just a captain. Why should he represent Beijia's face? His embarrassment is his own business. Can it be regarded as Beijia's embarrassment?" Wang Xingyi laughed, "He is not as skilled as others, and he is not as good as others. He also paid the ransom himself. What does it have to do with Beijia? But I am very curious. He Xiao must have something to rely on to dare to do this. Does he have any strong backers in Beijia?"
Otherwise, how can He Xiao predict Beijia's reaction?
As the national teacher of Mou State, Wang Xingyi knows how much noise there is in the court of a big country, and also knows that sometimes even the person in power can hardly control the development of the situation. How can He Xiao be sure that Beijia will not really bother with him?
Unless...
Fang Canran thought about it and shook his head: "Even if there is, he will not let me know."
"From his current situation, this flattering approach is understandable." After all, there are not many people and regions who dare to offend Beijia. Wang Xingyi can understand He Xiao's painstaking efforts, "but it also shows that he has other thoughts and is unwilling to rely on Lingshan."
Otherwise, with him, the decision maker of Lingshan, watching from the side, He Lingchuan should have submitted his surrender with practical actions, such as offering Yu Zecheng's head.
The so-called surrender usually does not leave a way out for yourself.
If He Lingchuan could hear this speech in person, he would probably be sweating coldly, secretly thinking that the old ginger is spicy.
In just a few words, the national teacher analyzed his intentions and means clearly.
Wang Xingyi glanced at Fang Canran and suddenly said something off topic: "Songyuan, you and He Xiao are both facing the pursuit of the Heavenly Palace. You changed your appearance to reduce the disaster, but he chose to stand firm and turn around to mediate. In this respect, you are not as good as him."
This is the teaching of the elders to the younger generation.
Fang Canran and He Lingchuan are the two culprits of Lingxu City. Faced with the expected pursuit, Fang Canran chose to escape, while He Lingchuan was determined to face the challenge.
In terms of state of mind and courage, the difference is obvious.
Fang Canran was speechless, and after a long while, he whispered: "Indeed, He Xiao is a strong man."
"But a person like him is scheming and restless. He is afraid that he will not be subordinated to others. It is right not to recruit him as an official in the court." Wang Xingyi patted him on the shoulder and said sincerely, "You must let him know that as long as he is here, Develop well here and avoid making troubles. As long as you make great contributions to Mou State and Lingshan in the future, you will be able to break the land and seal the territory and become a great official. "
If you don't want to be inferior to others, then you can be the leader of a party based on your merits and be free.
As long as this person can be used by his side, Wang Xingyi is also happy to see it succeed.
Make good use of talents and be eclectic.
"yes!"
On the same day, Wang Guoshi, accompanied by He Lingchuan, boarded the ship and left the shore with his entourage, returning to Mou State.
As for Fang Canran, he will stay in the Yangshan Islands for seven days to plan the islands for He Lingchuan, and then leave by boat to go about his own business.
But with Wang Xingyi's instructions, he and He Lingchuan should keep in close contact and frequent each other from now on.
When He Lingchuan finished his work and finally had time to have a tea break by Ding Lake, the Soul-Taking Mirror sighed:
"That Yinzhu Island sounds so dangerous. Are you really going to do it? This is a life-threatening situation."
Lingshan's own people were all over it, so why did they ask He Lingchuan to be a treasure hunter?
He Lingchuan was so exhausted that he closed his eyes and rested his mind as soon as he sat down:
"Do you think I have a choice not to answer?"
"The conditions offered by Master Wang sound generous, and the magical weapons are not bad, but they are not proportional to the difficulty of the task." Jing Jing was angrily, "Why do I feel that we are at a disadvantage?"
"How could it be my turn to do such a good job?" He Lingchuan was very clear-minded. "From the moment Wang Guoshi landed on Sodin Island, we had no choice."
"ah?"
"When I went to the Yangshan Islands to set up my own business, I hid behind Mou Guo. Even if Mou Guo did nothing, he stood there to protect us from the wind and rain. Can Wang Guoshi not be clear about this?" He Lingchuan Youyou He said, "Besides, Lingshan still has something to do with me. It knows what I have done."
If Lingshan is unhappy with him, he doesn't even have to deal with him, he just needs to "accidentally" reveal his secret to Bega.
Both Bejia and Lingshan were behemoths to the current He Lingchuan.
When you face a behemoth and still ask for help from it, you have no way of rejecting its arrogance.
But He Lingchuan was not coerced into becoming angry.
That's just the way things are. Instead of lamenting the injustice, it is better to work hard to make these few moves in hand.
Besides, you need to have a begging attitude when asking for help. If he wanted to rely on Mou Guo's support to establish himself, he would have to make some sacrifices.
As long as he can solve the problem for Lingshan, he has value and he is safe.
What people fear most is having no value.
If employees like Renee and Ding Zuodong have no value, they will be fired by He Lingchuan; if He Lingchuan has no value, he will also be thrown away as an abandoned son.
However, after these days of busy man-made disasters and natural disasters, he also had to fight secretly with a big boss like Wang Guoshi, which also gave He Lingchuan a lot of trouble.
He asked the mirror: "What, are you afraid?"
"Can I be afraid?" The soul-capturing mirror purred, "How many times have I been born and died, can I be afraid? But, hey, why don't you ask for a promise from Lingshan?"
He Lingchuan raised his head and felt the cool breeze: "What promise?"
Ding Lake is famous for its shape that resembles the character "D". Its blue waves are the best for boating. Except for hurricane days, it is usually very gentle. A monastery is also being built next to the lake. In the future, guests here will have access to the water, which is suitable for boating and fishing.
He Lingchuan was sitting on the colorful pebble beach, with a bamboo woven lounge chair and footstool, a bamboo woven low table, and a pot of warm wine.
As soon as he lay down on the chair, he couldn't open his eyelids.
Not far away is a half-renovated building, which is where the official offices of Yangshan Islands will be in the future, and it is also his office location.
There was a deer in the forest, looking around. Seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time, he gradually came out to eat grass confidently and boldly.
Ignorant and fearless.
There were originally no deer on the islands. They were all ornamental animals artificially released to the islands.
Jing Jing knew very well his purpose of traveling across the ocean to come here: "In the future, we will continue to have relations with Bailie, and they will definitely ask Mou Guo for help."
What He Lingchuan was afraid of was never Bailie, but Mou Guo next to him. A big country that dares to compete with Bega is definitely not something that He Lingchuan can resist at this stage.
Jing Jing continued: "If Lingshan can stabilize Mou State for us, wouldn't Bailie be in your pocket?"
"You have to show your face by asking for this promise." He Lingchuan sighed, "Actually, I regret it now. I shouldn't have mentioned Bailie more in front of Wang Guoshi, even though I brought Qingguo with me."
He had been thinking very hard these past few days, and there were so many things to deal with at all times that it was inevitable that he would not think clearly at times.
