"What does the lord mean? Do you just let it go? It is probably not easy to choose the right time. His Majesty's Emperor has not died in one day. I am afraid that there will be no major changes in the imperial capital or the Central Plains. It is not realistic to prevent those in the court from paying attention to Lujiang. Even if we are cautious, we are afraid that those who are interested will deliberately ignite these things." Gu Quan did not agree with Wufeng's view. As his brother's assistant, Gu Quan has been assisting Gu Ji in the imperial capital for a long time. He has always admired his elder brother's vision. The elder brother never misses the matter and people he sees. As the person he admires the elder brother's most, Gu Quan himself also wants to go to the northwest to see the hero in his elder brother's mind.

"No, Gu Quan, you don't understand what I mean. My idea is to hope to fully grasp the situation in Lujiang in a short period of time, and then completely eliminate the mixed forces with lightning speed, and supplemented by loose economic and fiscal policies, Lujiang completely surrenders to my feet. It is necessary to make external forces firmly grasp it without any time to react. This requires careful arrangements and arrangements, and it must be foolproof, so we must take some time to prepare, and we can also use this time to observe what those guys with dissatisfaction are performing." Wufeng shook his head and showed a faint smile on his face: "Sometimes, when you need to avoid those unnecessary limelight, you must endure it, but sometimes when you need to show murderous aura and strength, you must do it even if you have risks. But since you have to do it, you must do it more thoroughly."

Seeing the other party's words at the end, Gu Quan took a deep breath. It turned out that the coach was not worried that the impact was too great, but hoped to completely solve the problem at once. The second half of this sentence obviously implies that he could let go of his hands and feet. If the security department implements this meaning without fail, it is afraid that Lujiang will cause a bloody storm. It seems that the coach is a very dissatisfied with the performance of various forces in Lujiang during this period.

"What sir means is-?" Gu Quan finally asked about the topic he came to ask for instructions today.

After patting the letter on the table, Wufeng asked back: "You have selected these companies. Do you think they can all be used for us? What are their strengths and weaknesses?"

Although many have been introduced in the letter, Gu Quan knew that now is the most secret situation that the boss needs to know. Many unverified situations cannot be posted casually, but many important situations cannot be verified. This is also the rule of the intelligence department.

"In fact, the forces in Lujiang can use the weakest forces in the Empire. Because they were suppressed by the Taiping Army, the strongest forces in the Empire have basically declined. However, these families have been preserved because they are a little far from the original mainstream schools. However, after the Lin family took over, they were squeezed by forces supported by Sanjiang. The situation suddenly became quite difficult. It can be said that they are struggling. The Lang family took over the throne for too short, and they have no chance even if they want to support them. Our entry brings great hope to them, so they think of us as loyal as soon as possible. However, given that the current situation is not clear, the Lord also told us not to over-disclosely, and we are still secretly communicating with many things."

"Well, let's talk about it more specifically." Wu Feng frowned. He didn't like to listen to these sources. He just wanted to hear who is the most suitable for him and who can bring greater benefits to him. This is the most important thing.

"At present, three companies have been included in our sight. The first is the Zhu family in the south of Lujiang City. The Zhu family was originally a prominent family in Lujiang. However, when the previous generation of heads were in power, they were suppressed by the other party and quickly declined. However, they still have considerable potential in Lujiang and are also one of the major land owners of Lujiang Prefecture. In terms of business, they mainly operate water transportation to Bashan and Baling. However, under the blockade of the Maqi Khans, their power in Baling has been greatly weakened. The second family is the Lushan faction, which is located a hundred miles south of Lujiang, and is also the largest sect in Lujiang Prefecture. The Lushan faction used to have a significant influence in Lujiang Prefecture, but in the Taishu Prefecture, their power in Baling has been greatly weakened. The second is the Lushan faction. Lushan faction is located a hundred miles south of Lujiang Prefecture.

After the Ping Cultivist entered Lujiang, they were suppressed by the Taiping Cultivist because they secretly resisted the Taiping Cultivist and almost wiped out the family. Later, a female disciple in the sect married an important general of the Taiping Cultivist as a concubine, so they were spared from the disaster of extermination. Their relationship at the bottom of Lujiang was very complicated, and they also maintained a good relationship with the Lin family during the Lin family's control of Lujiang. However, it seems that the Lin family is not very cold to them, probably because of their Jianghu people. In addition, the Lushan Sect also has a large amount of land in the southern part of Lujiang Prefecture and operates some other businesses in the prefecture. It is particularly worth mentioning that they are not very harmonious with those forces that once had close ties with the Taiping Cult."

"There is also the Xu family in the east of the city. The Xu family is not native to Lujiang. They are descendants of immigrants from Baling. They migrated to Lujiang about a hundred years ago. They represent the power of migrants in Wuhu West. The Xu family is not a big deal. They originally just started with oil extraction. However, the heads of the Xu family were very good at operating. Xu's oil mill quickly developed from an inconspicuous oil extraction workshop to the largest oil extraction workshop in Lujiang, controlling nearly one Lujiang River.

Half of edible oil is produced and sold, and the business has also expanded to the operation of salt. They have been excluded by several big merchants with their relationship with the Lin family. The business was once affected, but they finally had a good business and survived. In addition, the Xu family also has a certain influence in Baling. From the perspective of the clan, the Xu family in Lujiang should be regarded as a branch of the Xu family in Baling. However, this is just a rumor and cannot be verified. The Xu family in Baling and Xu families in Lujiang also denied the relationship between the two parties."

Nodding silently, Wufeng was obviously very interested in these information that were not recorded in the letter. In his opinion, these are the things that are truly worthy of attention. Those things placed on the table are clear and there is no need to understand them anymore. Instead, these ambiguous information can highlight many unknown things.

"Have you sent people to contact these three families? What are their behaviors?" Wufeng asked with interest on his jaw.

"I have contacted not only these three companies, but after some screening, my subordinates and Lord Diao feel that these three companies are more suitable for us to cooperate with us. They do not have much connection with other forces, and they also have certain potential in Lujiang. As long as we support, they should be able to grow up quickly and use it for us." Gu Quan also fully prepared and confidently replied: "Using their connections, we can quickly find out the forces that are entangled with Taiping Sect, Lin Family, Maqi Khan and other parties. Although these forces are hidden very deeply, as long as these companies are willing to go deep into the water to serve us, they should still be dug out. This is also a gift for them to serve us."

"Well, so, are you quite sure about these three families?" Wu Feng picked up the teacup and took a sip. The slight white mist rose in front of him, and the portrait was blurred.

"Yes, sir, I think as long as we reach an agreement, they should be able to give us a satisfactory answer within a month." Gu Quan's sure answer was beyond doubt.

Nodded, Wufeng stood up and patted Gu Quan on the shoulder and smiled, "Okay, let's leave this matter to you and Diao Su. Two months later, I want to see a stable and peaceful Lujiang."

Compared with the complex situation in Lujiang, the situation in Bashan is much more stable. Taiping Cult has not been able to truly go deeper in Bashan. Therefore, after the Lang family advanced into Bashan, the rule established by the Taiping Cult immediately collapsed. The forces that were originally weak and implicated also immediately turned to the Lang family. However, after Xikang fell into the hands of the northwest, some subtle changes occurred in the hearts of the people in Bashan. Merchants coveted the policies of the northwest, while the gentry valued the power of the imperial rank represented by the emperor's prince-consort Li Wufeng. Although they also knew that Li Wufeng was quite different from the authentic traditional power of the empire, the halo of the prince-consort alone was enough to make these people who followed inertial thinking more inclined to the northwest.

The Gu family in Bashan also fully played their role in this Guanxi Incident. Whether it is military support or assisting the Northwest Army in Bashan to stabilize the situation, it is enough to express their loyalty to Wufeng. Any mistakes must be punished and any merits must be rewarded. This is Li Wufeng's principle. If you cannot give encouragement and reward to those who serve you, it means that you do not recognize what they have done for you. This is the biggest blow to those who are loyal to you.
