Chapter 589 A sudden enlightenment
At noon.
Gu Chan rode the tiger eagle and returned to the lord's mansion with a look of helplessness.
As for the Lord's Mansion, Ren Nanshan and Long Yu were still leading the guards to rescue the people affected by the disaster, and they were very busy.
After Gu Chan came back, she told Hu Ying to rest in the backyard while she hid in the study and wrote letters.
Just as she was concentrating on writing, Wei Xing walked in from the door.
Gu Chan stopped, looked at him and said, "Is Nan Xing crazy about the imperial edict?"
"Yes, he asked what you wanted to do, and I said I didn't know." Wei Xing walked to the desk and sat down.
"You're here just in time. Go find a carrier pigeon right away and send me this secret letter to the Zhongyuan Medical Center in Zhongyuan City." Gu Chan said.
After saying that, she picked up the written letter and blew it dry.
Wei Xing did not rush to find the carrier pigeon, but got closer and looked at it carefully.
After seeing this, he realized that it turned out that Gu Chan wanted to write a letter to Zhongyuan City to move reinforcements, and the reinforcement she wanted to move was none other than her master, Old Man Bai.
Sensing that something was wrong, Wei Xing quickly asked, "Little boss, what do you want to do? Hurry up and tell us, and we will discuss it together. At this juncture, you must not be willful. If you make a wrong step, you may be in trouble." Everyone loses!”
Gu Chan sighed and could only tell her in detail about how she wanted to go to the border of Yexing Kingdom to borrow money and food.
After Wei Xing heard this, he was stunned.
Gu Chan said, "What's wrong? Is my strategy bad?"
"What's not so bad, it's simply wonderful! As expected, this kid's brain is really good. You can think of all these harmful tricks. If you really succeed, you can't make the prince angry to death!" "Wei Xing suddenly stretched out his hand and patted his thigh, laughing loudly.
"Are you trying to flatter me?" Gu Chan looked uncertain.
Wei Xing laughed and said, "What you are saying is that we are just grasshoppers on the same rope. If you are going to die, don't I have to die too? Do I need to flatter you and kill you? I think this strategy is really good. .”
"Hey! Stop boasting. I originally thought about leaving with three mysterious beasts in the morning, but who knew that mysterious beasts can't leave the country easily. As a result, I have no choice but to come back and wait for the master to come. ." Gu Chan spread her hands and said.
Wei Xing shook his head and said, "Little boss, it seems to me! You don't need to write this letter, and you don't need to move the reinforcements. You can go to the border by yourself."
"What do you mean?" Gu Chan didn't understand.
"Think about it, you are the lord of Jiangnan, and you currently represent the entire Jiangnan area of Tiancang Kingdom. If you are going to the border of Yexing Kingdom, isn't that equivalent to going on a mission to Yexing Kingdom under the orders of the Emperor of Tiancang Kingdom? In this area, the county magistrates on the border of Yexing Kingdom still treat each other with courtesy?" Wei Xing said slyly.
Gu Chan frowned and said nothing.
Wei Xing analyzed in detail and said, "I think that if you want to go there this time, not only should you not bring extremely powerful people and mysterious beasts with you, but you should also not bring too many people with you. You only need to bring some useful people. Just go over there.”
"How do you say that?" Gu Chan was confused.
"It's very simple! Aren't the business models of your Yaoduoduo store and the artillery you developed in the Jiangnan area very good things? Just bring these with you, isn't it? It doesn't mean that you go to Yexing Country to do it. For business exchanges?" Wei Xing explained.
Gu Chan's eyes immediately lit up after hearing this, and she crumpled up the secret letter she had just written and slapped it on the desk. yes!
She didn't think about the words "business exchange" at all at first. She thought about how to borrow money and food.
Wei Xing arrived and reminded her in time. The more this situation happened, the less likely it was to go there with the real purpose. Instead, it was best to use circumstantial tactics.
Moreover, her merchant ship Dahuaxia is still floating on the Tiancang River and Jiangnan River selling medicine! Why not use this merchant ship to go directly to Night Star Country to achieve what she wants by doing business?
Thinking like this, Gu Chan immediately smiled from ear to ear and said, "You kid, you are indeed my think tank! This really enlightened me."
"You are too anxious. With your wisdom, how could you not have thought of this. Anyway, you can't be anxious now. As the lord of Jiangnan, if you are anxious, we won't know what to do." Wei Xing said with relief. .
Gu Chan nodded noncommittally.
Then she was no longer confused and ordered in an orderly manner, "Immediately take the people to the firearms camp, pull two artillery pieces and send them to the Dahuaxia."
"Yes, Master." Wei Xing responded respectfully and immediately left.
After he left, Gu Chan rolled her eyes again and called a servant and said, "Go to the Jiangnan City County Office and call the third young master Cheng Hao and Xie over."
"Yes, lord." The servant responded and left immediately.
About half an hour later, Cheng Hao and the Third Young Master came together.
After entering the study and seeing Gu Chan, Cheng Hao looked calm and there was nothing wrong with him. However, it was different for Young Master Jie. He stood in front of the desk with his head lowered, looking very uncomfortable.
It was only because that night, after Gu Chan asked him to take the county magistrate's three-piece suit to the county government office to take office, he realized that before him, Gu Chan had already sent Cheng Hao to take care of the county government office, and also made Cheng Hao the director. This county magistrate.
Therefore, after he went there, he did not dare to wear official uniforms easily. During this period, he and Cheng Hao had been working together in the county government under the title of Jiangnancheng County Magistrate.
The masters and officials in the county government were also puzzled. They couldn't figure out who among them was the county magistrate. They only knew that the lords asked them to come and take over the county government, so they could only obey their orders.
As a result, the two often clashed over how to deal with things, but due to Gu Chan's orders, they did not dare to quarrel directly.
Therefore, one can imagine how uncomfortable it was for him as the county magistrate during this period of time.
Gu Chan looked at the two people with completely different expressions and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Cheng Hao had long been used to it and said calmly, "Master, please stop teasing us. You have really teased us a lot during this time!"
"Lord, I really don't understand. Since you wanted me to be the county magistrate, why did you let Brother Cheng take over the county government first?" At this time, Mr. Jie finally couldn't hold it in any longer and looked up at Gu. Chan said.
Gu Chan sat behind the desk, crossed her legs and said with a wicked smile, "Let's see which of you is more capable and who is more suitable to be the county magistrate."
"So that's it! Then I understand." Mr. Jie said with a grimace.
Faced with Gu Chan's explanation, he was unable to argue.
And after this period of competition, he also understood that in terms of ability, he was better than Cheng Hao, but in terms of strength, he was really not as good as Cheng Hao!
