382 Caring for Subordinates

Just when Lu Haoshan was conducting a "gentleman" training for Li Dingguo, in a luxurious carriage rushing outside the city, Fan Yongdou, who had just been humble, changed his role from a small merchant who was seeking others to a high-ranking and upright clan leader.

In the luxurious and spacious carriage, there was also a small mahogany tea table. There was an exquisite charcoal stove on the tea table, and a steaming copper pot was placed on the charcoal stove. Fan Tianjun made tea and washed cups familiarly. Finally, he respectfully sent a cup of newly brewed fragrant tea to Fan Yongdou: "Old patriarch, please use tea."

As a child of the Fan family, Fan Tianjun knew that the old patriarch brought him here this time to expand his knowledge and connections, accumulate qualifications, and lay the foundation for his future rise. Therefore, Fan Tianjun was naturally very attentive to Fan Yongdou.

Fan Yongdou blew gently, let out a sip of tea leisurely, and then asked, "Tian Jun"

"Younger is here," Fan Tianjun responded quickly.

"What do you think about today?"

Fan Tianjun knew that this was a test for the old patriarch. He heard this and just pondered for a moment, and immediately said carefully: "Things were going well and unexpectedly. Governor Lu obviously had a good hand but didn't play, which made people suspicious. When the Sichuan Army returned to the city, we also saw the heroic posture, military appearance, equipment and morale of the Sichuan Army, which showed that it was a powerful army that could conquer and fight, but the attitude of this Governor Lu was too unprofitable, right?"

"Continue." Fan Yongdou leaned his body against the soft back of the chair behind and said with his eyes narrowed.

"Yes, the old patriarch," Fan Tianjun responded, and then continued, "It was said that he had ambitiousness, but this governor took money seriously. A dignified governor was easily moved by a few hundred thousand taels. When the old patriarch tore off the IOU, the governor obviously had a happy look. For money, those sharp firearms were actually willing to sell and transfer. This was a fatal mistake. It was really foolish. It was obvious that when the Qing Iron Cavalry, who was dominant in the world, got these firearms, it was like a heavenly soldier and general who came to earth and was invincible."

Not bad, it was very clear and carefully observed. Fan Yongdou secretly praised it in his heart, but the old face was still motionless. Instead, he said seriously: "This is the impact of the environment on a person, this is the importance of family background and background to a person. This Sichuan Governor was born in a humble origin. Although he achieved something, he was born in a small family. His eyes and achievements were like that."

"It depends on one person, it depends on his words and deeds, and also on his behavior." Fan Yongdou emphasized: "When you want to negotiate with someone, from the moment you meet, the negotiation has begun. If you want to get the most favorable conditions, it is best to find out the opponent's trump card. This is called knowing yourself and your enemy, winning every battle, and some people don't know. Some people have some unintentional habits that will sell themselves, take gamblers as an example. Some people will blink and touch their noses or eyes when they get good cards. If they get bad cards, they will sigh, be heartless, stomp their feet, etc. As long as you observe carefully, you can guess his trump card. In this way, there will naturally be much more chances of winning."

After saying so much in one breath, Fan Yong's mouth was a little dry, and he sipped two sips of tea, and then said slowly: "That man named Lu, who wants the best tea in Wuyi Mountain, and what kind of Yulongquan water is needed? Because he likes to eat roast chicken, his chef cooks a chicken for him every half an hour. Although these are small and inconspicuous details, there is a lot of useful information here, that is, this Governor Lu is already content with enjoyment. When a person is content with enjoyment, his will will become weak and his position will become unstable. The Gentleman is the tomb of heroes. From these details, it can be seen that this Governor Lu is being corrupted and is slowly losing the qualification to be an opponent with Lord Dorgon."

Fan Tianjun immediately agreed, "The old patriarch is right. This person was a small family. He had never seen him as a wealthy family. He was still self-disciplined at the beginning. His mind was corrupted over a long time. He was really brave. He bought a new type of musket from him and dared to hand over the iron of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. He really dared to have to give it to him."

When Lu Haoshan was talking about the firearm transaction, he was very determined to join the beauty of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. He still had shameless requests that he must be the virgin of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty and would not give in. This made Fan Tianjun very helpless.

Fan Yongdou said without caring at all: "It's not surprising that people have a curiosity. We just need to complete the task. As for whether to change or not, these are not something we can decide."

After saying that, he shook his head helplessly: "Two beautiful women from the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty replaced with a new type of musket. This Governor is really not polite. Do you agree or disagree with the decisive killing Lord Dorgon?"

Fan Tianjun didn't say anything. For him, at this time, he would be better silent...

The matter of contracting and dealing is now just a preliminary conclusion. Fan Yongdou also has to ask Dorgon for instructions on specific matters, and then negotiate with the greedy governor. Sichuan has traveled thousands of miles from Liaodong, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth. What needs to be done now is to wait.

"Old patriarch, I heard that Li Zicheng also had an envoy to Sichuan. Should we do something?" As if we woke up, Fan Tianjun quickly reminded.

Once Zhang Xianzhong died, he seized Sichuan. Lu Haoshan, who had 100,000 soldiers under his command, became an existence that cannot be ignored. Dorgon did not dare to ignore it, and Li Zicheng did not dare to ignore it. Perhaps Li Zicheng could ignore it when he swept the world ahead, but he did not dare to neglect it after he had just suffered a defeat. He sent special envoys Chen Yongfu and Zhou Shiqi to Sichuan, and their goals were the same as Fan Yong. Fan Tianjun thought of this and quickly reminded him.

Fan Yongdou nodded and said, "This is a problem. This is also the reason why I personally took action. Although Li Zhe ascended the throne in Beijing, Sichuan had cedeed land as king as early as the Chongzhen period and never showed goodwill to the Dashun regime. Even if Li Zicheng took over the prince of the previous dynasty, it would be useless. So, now it depends on which one paid the highest price and gave the most benefits. Tian Jun, from now on, you mainly order the Li Zhe, and don't let go of their every move."

"Yes, the old patriarch."

………….

Fan Tianjun said it well. Just after seeing Fan Yongdou, Lu Haoshan had time to change his clothes and saw his beautiful wife and concubine. The envoy sent by Dashun asked for a meeting outside the door. There was no way, so he had to meet them again. While asking for benefits, he was ruling around. The conditions were similar to Fan Yongdou. He could sign a non-aggression treaty and avoid an alliance. In addition, he also implied that as long as he was willing to spend a lot of money, Sichuan's huge arsenal could open it to the Dashun army.

Anyway, you can do whatever you benefit.

Like Fan Yongping, Chen Yongfu and Zhou Shiqi were just an envoy. They were unsure of their ideas for many major issues and needed to ask for instructions. After nearly half an hour of negotiation, the two walked out of the Governor's Mansion with joy.

"Sir. In the past, everyone looked at each other without anyone else, but now they all had smiles to form an alliance with the adults. Now it's our Sichuan Army's turn to be the mighty one." Li Dingguo said with admiration on the side.

Lu Haoshan shook his head and said, "You can't say that. There were also envoys in the past, but we kept a low profile and did not want to break up with the previous dynasty. We have never given them a chance. Now we open the door with the power of new victories, so their attitudes are naturally different."

"What should I do if sir?" Li Dingguo asked curiously.

"Water is not always in shape, and the soldiers are not always in a constant state, so they naturally take the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity. Li Zicheng called himself emperor in Beijing, and there were many people who supported him. The million-dollar army did not retreat overnight. Although he suffered a defeat, the quality of the personnel was not as elite as the elite soldiers of the Qing Dynasty and Wu Sangui, but they were defeated by the advantage of many people. In addition, they also controlled many strategic areas and probably had to want to slapped each other. Our current purpose is to make money as much as possible in war and then continue to strengthen ourselves."

"Sir, are you very good at it." Li Dingguo asked carefully: "Sir, do you want to expand the size of the army?"

"There is no need to expand the scale to avoid disturbing Li Zicheng and Dorgon. However, the plan to prepare for military service should be implemented quickly. If you hide your troops from the people, you need to raise your arms. Why are you afraid that your subordinates will have no soldiers?" Lu Haoshan said with a sneer.

"Yes, I will do it right away."

Lu Haoshan waved his hand to stop him, and said seriously: "Slowly, put this aside for the time being, there is a more important thing for you to do."

"Please give me the order." As soon as Li Dingguo heard about the task, his eyes lit up. He stood up straight suddenly. In an instant, he became like an arrow about to leave the string.

Seeing Li Dingguo's serious look, Lu Haoshan laughed and patted his shoulder and said, "Relax, relax, there is no urgent task. I just came back from the war, so I naturally have to have a good rest. I don't want to wait for you at home. I haven't seen you for so long, so I've been eager to see your wife. Last time your father-in-law came to Wangjiang Pass, and I didn't know how disappointed you were. If you don't let anyone go, I guess he has to talk to me. Okay, now the task I give you is to go home for dinner, and take your wife to the celebration banquet tomorrow night, so there must be no mistakes."

When he thought of Zhu Yan's flowery face, Li Dingguo's iron-like heart suddenly became soft and said that he didn't remember it was a scam. This time he won a big victory and seized Jufeng. As a senior in the army, Li Dingguo also distributed a lot of spoils. He had already picked a few exquisite and precious jewelry from them as gifts to his beloved wife Zhu Yan. When he heard Lu Haoshan care about him so much, he felt a warm feeling in his heart and said with gratitude: "The last general will take the order."

"Go and go." Lu Haoshan smiled and "driven away" Li Dingguo.

Looking at Li Dingguo's hurried back and brisk steps, he knew that he was in a hurry to go back to see Zhu Yan. Who had never been young? Lu Haoshan showed a smile of understanding on his lips. Then he suddenly thought of his military advisor Li Nian, and felt excited. Then he shook his head with a wry smile and said to himself: "No one from this Li family can worry about it."

After saying that, Lu Haoshan said, "Come here, pass it on to me Zhao Feng."

Zhao Feng is the 100 households in the original text of the Thousand Households. If Zhao Gongchang, Li Dingguo and others are the first group to follow Lu Haoshan, then Zhao Feng can be considered the second group. Zhao Feng is the kind of person who has no characteristics and no shortcomings. He is diligent in his work and will do what he should do. He will not interfere with other things without any need. He does not seek merit but does not seek any mistakes. However, his victory is not bad in terms of loyalty. He is an "old minister" of the Lin family. For Lin Yuexuan's sake, Lu Haoshan transferred him to the Governor's Office.

He has no business to do anything, but in terms of private affairs, Zhao Feng is a "inquiry". He likes to ask about other people's ** and so on. He is very gossipy and has good news. He usually can't hide anything from him.

This is what Lu Haoshan likes.

"See the Governor." As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Feng was excited and respectfully saluted Lu Haoshan.

It’s rare. My adults have rarely looked for me. This time I look for me alone, so I wonder what’s wrong?

Although I can't guess what the Governor is looking for him, it doesn't matter that Zhao Feng has a good mood. In his opinion, the Governor is looking for him, which means that he has his own person in his heart, which is enough.

When Lu Haoshan heard this, he nodded and said, "I am not here these days, thank you for your hard work in Zhao Qianhu."

"I dare not, these are what my subordinates should do." Zhao Feng responded quickly.

Lu Haoshan glanced at Zhao Feng, and while drinking tea slowly, he asked casually: "Have there been any special or interesting things recently?"

Check yourself for the situation. Is this a sign that adults call themselves a confidant?

Zhao Feng suddenly became excited, thinking that he had finally caught the eyes of the adults, but he had no valuable things to report to his adults when searching for the dry intestines. So he said with some depression: "Sir, everything is normal recently, and nothing major happened. The brothers are all working diligently and there is no special situation."

Although he really wanted to get ahead, he had no real stuff in his hands. Zhao Feng was very depressed, but he didn't dare to make trouble because his adult was too smart and I don't know what the benefits of fooling him were for the time being, but the outcome would definitely be bad.

Lu Haoshan gently put down the teacup, looked at Zhao Feng in surprise, and said with disbelief on his face: "Isn't it really?"

"If you want to know, no."

"What about Military Advisor Li?" Lu Haoshan was too lazy to tell the mystery and pointed out the person directly.

Zhao Feng was surprised. What the lord meant was to attack the military advisor? Could it be that Military advisor Li performed too well and was so powerful that he shocked the master, or that he formed a clique for personal gain, which made the Governor be wary?

"Sir" Zhao Feng said seriously: "The military advisor is resourceful, careful in his work, sincere in his treatment, and has no airs on weekdays. The military advisor has always been conscientious. The villain has never heard bad words about the military advisor. Please make an appraisal."

Lu Haoshan was stunned for a moment and quickly understood what he meant. This guy thought he was going to deal with Li Nian. It was not bad. He did not deliberately frame others. He laughed and patted Zhao Feng on the shoulder and said, "I have known the talent and loyalty of the military advisor for a long time. I don't need to say this. What I mean is that in the private life of the military advisor, for example, a woman who likes... "(To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
