Chapter 2 A New Beginning (Continued)
In Xiyang, Huangzhou, a private place, the wife of the Duke of Tang, who was washed away from the dust, was talking to the grandmother Dugu, and his son was playing. The little guy was less than one year old this year and had just learned to walk, but he just walked shakingly, and his appearance looked so funny.
This is the son born to Li Yuan by Dou, whose nickname is Visaman and whose great name is Li Jiancheng.
The word "手机" means "手机手机", which contains the expectation of Li Yuan and his wife for their son and their longing for their future life. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who traveled thousands of miles are now a little tired, but they are in good spirits.
Footsteps sounded, and one person turned into the room. It was Li Yuan who returned from seeing the guest.
He had just finished his conversation with the officials sent by the Huangzhou General Administration. He immediately went to the backyard to see his family, picked up his son who was talking, sat on the couch and talked to his mother and wife, and the whole family was having a happy time.
This time, Li Yuan took office in Ezhou and brought his wife, children and mother. However, he did not plan to resettle his family in Xiakou, Ezhou Prefecture, but let his family live in Xiyang, Huangzhou, a private place where he lived two years ago.
He took his mother to Xiyang, Huangzhou. This was done in order to share family life together, and in the second place, due to many considerations, the main reason was that Dugu thought it was good to live in Xiyang, because Li Yuan and his family lived in Xiyang two years ago.
Since then, Li Yuan has a private place in Xiyang and has arranged a housekeeper and servant to take care of it. So this time, Li Yuan was able to move in with a private place in Xiyang as soon as he arrived in Xiyang.
During his time living in Xiyang, the Dou family, who was well-off, found that there were endless business opportunities in the city. Since then, the Duke of Tang has had a small industry in Xiyang, which has increased a lot of income for the mansion in the past two years. Therefore, Dou family felt that living in Xiyang is convenient for managing industries and taking care of Dugu family.
Dugu's temper is a bit bad, and only his daughter-in-law Dou can serve him. If Dugu stays in Chang'an, no one will be able to serve him smoothly. Therefore, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law live together in Xiyang, and as for Li Yuan...
Then live alone in the Xiakou Governor's residence. Li Yuan has not taken a concubine yet. If he lives alone, he will always be alone and unable to sleep. However, the transportation between Xiakou and Xiyang is very convenient, and Dou's stay in Xiakou from time to time is very convenient.
Not to mention that Li Yuan is now a new official and wants to show his ambitions. He lives alone in Xiakou, which is just convenient for "working overtime".
The word "work overtime" became popular in Xiyang. Sometimes, in order to rush work, the workers in the workshop need to "work overtime and add more". After saying too much, the word became popular. It was well known to Dou, who always pays attention to the situation in Xiyang, and influenced his husband.
Dou's family was well-off and had good vision. In the past two years, Huangzhou's business has become more prosperous. Dou's family has brought the industry of the Duke of Tang's Mansion to a sailboat, and its annual income has increased sharply. With this talent, Li Yuan became more and more generous.
Of course, Dou did not forget her family. Now she lives in Xiyang for a long time and also has the intention of giving guidance to her family and opening an industry.
Dugu was old and Li Jiancheng was young. The two soon became in a bad mood and went to rest one after another. Li Yuan and his wife moved to the dormitory and started whispering.
Li Yuan was the new governor of Ezhou, but he passed by the prefecture, Xiakou and did not enter. He arrived directly at Xiyang, Huangzhou. In addition to considering relocating his family, he also had to go to Xiyang to meet his superiors and the new Huangzhou general manager. But most importantly, he met with the resigned Huangzhou general manager, Wang Yuwen Wen.
Wang Yuwen Wen of Bin went from Bozhou to Chang'an not long ago, and then rushed back to Bozhou from Chang'an. He returned to Xiyang and stayed temporarily for a while. At this time, he happened to be in Xiyang, so Li Yuan naturally wanted to visit him.
Today, he had just arrived in Xiyang and sent someone to the Prince Bin's Mansion to send a letter of worship. The reason for doing this is because Li Yuan was able to become the governor of Ezhou thanks to Yuwen Wen. If Yuwen Wen had no guidance from him, he would have accomplished nothing in Ezhou.
According to Xu Shao's introduction and what Li Yuan saw and heard when he lived in Xiyang, he knew that the prosperity of Daye in Wuchang, Ezhou was the result of the vigorous management of Bin Wang Yu and Wen Wen.
Ezhou does not have the powerful people who are arbitrary and have a wealthy and powerful businessman who is more wealthy than the other. The various industries run by these businessmen are "big tax payers" in Ezhou. Because their respective relationships can reach Chang'an directly, it is difficult for parents and officials to deal with.
There are only two and a half people who can completely suppress these wealthy merchants. One is King Qi and half is the prince of King Qi. However, King Qi and the prince do not need to work hard for such mundane things, the other is King Bi.
Therefore, if Li Yuan wants to be a good parent official in Ezhou and want to achieve decent political achievements, he has to ask King Bin to "suggestions". To put it bluntly, ask King Bin to say a few "fair words" and let the rich businessmen in Xiakou and Wuchang continue to abide by the rules and not "bully newcomers".
As he was talking, Li Yuan took out an invitation: "I just arrived at Prince Bin's Mansion and said the time was set, and it was three o'clock the next day."
"Sanlang, don't forget to meet with the new general manager."
"I know, I will go to the office to report my work tomorrow morning."
Seeing that his husband was well-behaved, Dou was relieved. Now the court was about to eliminate the rebels. There were new officials in various prefectures and counties in Hebei and Henan. Li Yuan finally got a good position. If he took it lightly and offended others without knowing it, it would be a good idea.
The new Huangzhou chief manager Rong Jianxu was very straightforward. Dou was worried that his husband would first meet King Bin and see his superiors again, which would make the new Huangzhou chief manager think that Li Yuan was a flatterer.
If the Shangguan has a prejudice against the subordinates, the subordinates will always encounter some trouble when doing things.
As for whether King Bin would mind Li Yuan not visiting the palace first, Dou thought that Yuwen Wen was not such a person, because the reason why Li Yuan was able to become the governor of Ezhou was to put it bluntly because King Bin took the initiative to give him the opportunity.
Xu Shao is Li Yuan’s friend, so he really wants to help, but without King Bi’s approval, Xu Shao would not be able to do this.
Li Yuan was a little puzzled about such good luck. Of course, he would not misunderstand that Yuwen Wen was "coveting" Dou's family like he did at the beginning, so he went and talked with him.
Dou thought about King Bin's motive for a while, and now he had a bold idea, that is, King Bin is now trying to weave his own network of relationships independently of King Qi.
She made a judgment through all the signs, believing that when King Bin recently needed central decision-making, he had already begun to seek help from Princess Chang, instead of seeking King Qi's help from the beginning.
Of course, this does not mean that King Bin and King Qi have begun to become unfamiliar.
Dou thought King Bin was a smart person, so...
The opportunity for your husband to revive the Li family has come. If you seize it well, your future will be bright.
Thinking of this, Dou was very happy. Of course, there was another reason for her happiness: King Bin seemed to like using peers, or like using young people.
Xu Shao and Hao Wu Bo will not talk about it. It is said that most of the assistants in the Bin Palace are young people. When King Bin fought in Henan, Dou also heard about the deeds of Sima Yinshishishi, so she believed that since King Bin planned to weave his own network of relationships, he would definitely find a way to win over some young talents.
This is a good opportunity and a new beginning for the Dou family.
