Chapter 1855: Dedication These students, who had come with the idea of being selected to join the Praetorian Guard, suddenly became bitter.
They are not afraid of hardship, and in fact, the training in the army is much more difficult, but they cannot help but have doubts about this kind of indiscriminate training. pity They didn't have a choice, He Maocai had already vaguely guessed something, he was cautious and couldn't make mistakes, and because of this, he barely suppressed these students.
On one side there was a drill, and on the other side, a group of scholars were recruited to another place, and they were learning about interrogations, taking confessions, learning the law, and, of course, the use of weapons.
In Qinglong City, the surface is naturally peaceful, but under this smooth surface, there are still many places where dirt and dirt are hidden, and something is surging.
In the past few days, Wang Desheng's mood is quite good, and once he knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger, he finally made the Deng Inspector compromise, at least until now, the Deng Inspector seems to have lost interest in cracking down on the meeting.
On the bright side, he is an extremely successful businessman, he has several docks, many gambling houses and green houses, and even a few small money houses that lend money privately, he is a guest of many big names in Qinglong, an official of the China Merchants Bureau, a friend of the Patrol Bureau, and even a senior official of the Railway Bureau, who is also his brother.
In fact, this is not difficult to understand, everyone likes to deal with him, because Wang Desheng is a righteous person, he is more reliable in others, ordinary businessmen, there is always a slippery side, and it is inevitable that he will be compared, but he makes friends, but he is never stingy with money.
Thirteen incense halls in the Axe Gate, almost every one of them, are now benefiting from the development of Qinglong, especially the influx of a large number of displaced people, providing them with a huge space for profit.
Today, he got up early in the morning, like other readers, gently crossed his legs and looked at the latest newspaper, his mansion is not magnificent, but very elegant, every time at this time, the incense owners of the Thirteen Incense Hall will wait for him outside the hall, waiting for him to tell and explain things, and he is often not in a hurry, first read today's newspaper, before seeing them.
There was a cup of tea and a stack of pastries in front of him, Wang Desheng finished reading the newspaper, coughed, and the chief next to him was busy hunching his body, almost hanging his head and putting his face against Wang Desheng's mouth, so he heard Wang Desheng say slowly: "Find Zhao Zhijing, everyone else, let's disperse." ” "Yes."
As soon as the chief bowed, he hurried out and gave orders.
After a while, a incense master came in, bowed his head, Wang Desheng still crossed his legs, but he looked very generous, his fingers lightly knocked on the case, and said lightly: "I ate wine last night" He always speaks slowly and logically, as if to give the other party a space for imagination.
"When I was eating, I heard from a friend of the Household Administration Bureau, the director of the bureau had encountered some small troubles, and there have been many displaced people recently, although the Household Administration Bureau is trying its best to give porridge, but there are still omissions, these days, the weather outside this pass is frozen, and the business trip pool is to kill people, a few days ago, an immigrant actually froze to death, which made the director of the bureau very anxious, and was called by the small cabinet, and he applied for a pass."
Zhao Zhijing said: "There is such a thing. ” "In two days, let the disciples below also set up a few porridge shacks to help the household administration, but we can't starve to death anymore."
"Yes."
Zhao Zhijing nodded hurriedly: "Then Director Zhou, should I go and say hello?"
Wang Desheng shook his head and said, "You don't have to say hello, if he understands, he will naturally understand."
It's just a matter of helping a friend, but if you run to shout with people like this, it's like a ninth-rate person competing for merit, but it looks stingy. ” Wang Desheng said, took a sip of tea, and then continued unhurriedly: "Also, there are more girls to look for in Lichunfang."
Speaking of this, he squinted his eyes, as if he was weighing something, and suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and said: "Lu Wangwei, haven't you found anything yet, it's been more than forty days, and I haven't heard anything at all, this shouldn't be very simple." ” Zhao Zhijing said with a little embarrassment: "It's a forbidden area, you can't enter or exit, is Mr. worried about His Royal Highness King Lu After all, he is the lord of this Lu country, and he has added Jiuxi, and he also needs pomp, and it should be normal to get a Lu Wangwei." ” "No, King Nalu, I've seen it."
Wang Desheng thought about everything, and at the same time his eyes flashed a trace of vigilance, and then said: "In the house of the envoy Deng, although he did not reveal his identity, I can see that there is an indescribable taste in his eyes when he looks at me, His Royal Highness King Lu can go from a small scholar to today, this is by no means a small role." ” Zhao Zhijing thought for a while before saying, "Come to think of it, as His Royal Highness King Lu, I won't care about our little axe." ” Wang Desheng took another sip of tea, but this time, he was not really tasting tea, more like he wanted to hide his emotions: "Be careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship, and then order someone to investigate, oh, in a few days, isn't His Royal Highness King Lu going to feast on the major commercial houses like a fundraiser, let's prepare a big gift, this time fundraising, I want to donate 100,000 taels of silver, to build a school, to encourage young people to read, His Royal Highness King Lu has always been very troubled about reading." ” Zhao Zhijing suddenly said in surprise: "One hundred thousand" Although the economic development of this Qinglong is very fast, but 100,000 is still not a small amount, in fact, it is considered to be one of the top ten commercial houses, and it may not be able to take it out in one go, after all, assets are one thing, but cash is another thing, people who do business, money is alive, and they will never reserve so much silver in their hands, not to mention, 100,000 taels is indeed a lot of money.
Wang Desheng said lightly: "Tell you to do it, do it."
When it is time to be courteous, you need to be courteous first, but" he narrowed his eyes and said incomprehensibly: "But if it is simply to please, it may not be worthy of people, this person is the most afraid of being looked down upon, once you are despised by others, people will regard you as a mustard, donate silver, and let people see how powerful we are."
You will find Sun Huzi and Zhao Da'er from the dock tomorrow. ” I don't know if Zhao Zhijing understands Wang Desheng's deep meaning, Zhao Zhijing nodded, and went to do what he was told.
When Zhao Zhijing left, Wang Desheng crossed his legs again, picked up the newspaper, and continued to read it without a match. aa2705221:
