Chapter 27 Where to go

More importantly, Zhou Mengchen would not stay in Jiaxing for too long. After all, there are still a lot of things waiting for him. He can't always deal with the affairs of a county in Jiaxing. Even though this matter is very important, Zhou Mengchen is the governor of six provinces after all, not the governor of Zhejiang.

As the official becomes older, the way of handling affairs is different.

Zhou Mengchen is now increasingly considering how to use people. How to make a holistic plan and principle, instead of doing something well, it is no longer what Zhou Mengchen should do.

Therefore, Hainingwei's land purchase, or Hainingwei's military system reform, and even in the future, the so-called garrison reform in the southeast requires one person to be responsible.

Zhou Mengchen now felt more and more that Hu Zongxian was a very suitable person.

Ability, scheming and skillful person is a person who can do things.

Zhou Mengchen's words just now were to understand the situation and also to assess Hu Zongxian. When Zhou Mengchen might come, Hu Zongxian replied, although it was not considered a full score, it was also considered a passing score.

It would be fine if the Xiang family in Jiaxing was a famous family after all. Xiang Zhong was also a famous minister during the Chenghua period. He escaped from the Tumu Fort Incident and became a general and a prime minister. Zhou Mengchen's achievements are no longer much higher than Xiang Zhong except for the academic and cultural part. It is nothing more than Xiang Zhong's military merits to quell civil strife, and Zhou Mengchen recaptured Hetao. Of course, Xiang Zhong's achievements have been determined to die. Zhou Mengchen's future is still long.

However, Zhou Mengchen didn't know the Haiyan Chen family that Hu Zongxian mentioned. However, since there was a county name in front of him, it meant that it was just a county-level gentry family. Such families were as numerous as cows in Jiangnan. Hu Zongxian could come at will. It can be seen that he had done his best to be the governor of Zhejiang.

Since Zhou Mengchen had been attracted, he brought the topic back and said, "Calculate the time, Governor Tang has left Guizhou. As long as he enters Xiangjiang and comes by boat, it will be much faster. What will Lord Hu do after resigning from the governor of Zhejiang?"

Hu Zongxian's breathing was slightly rapid, then calmed down his breath and said, "Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the Lord. It depends on how the court arranges it."

After all, Hu Zongxian could not do anything but not take it to heart. You should know that before Zhou Mengchen came to Jiangnan, Zhao Wenhua was determined to retreat Hu Zongxian to the position of governor of Zhejiang and even assumed more responsibilities.

Hu Zongxian did not have the ambitions of Zhou Mengchen, and he was determined to go to the cabinet. Hu Zongxian is now 46 years old and has just climbed to the position of governor. Even if he can become the governor of Zhejiang, Hu Zongxian knew that it was used by the court to wipe out Japanese pirates. If the Japanese pirates are not destroyed for a day, Hu Zongxian would not be promoted in one day. Even if he was promoted, he would be at most six ministers in the future, so more Hu Zongxian would not want to do so.

The difficulty of a foreign official entering the cabinet was enough to make Hu Zongxian give up all his fantasies.

This is the plan given to him by Hu Zongxian and the plan gradually completed, but now it has disappeared under Zhou Mengchen's thunderous means. Now Hu Zongxian can only consider one thing, that is, how to escape from Jiangnan.

There is a world of difference here and there.

It would be impossible to say that Hu Zongxian did not have a little complaint. It was just that Hu Zongxian was rational enough to know that complaining now was useless. He could only let him slide into a deeper abyss.

Hu Zongxian could only put away his feelings and acted as if he was doing his job.

Zhou Mengchen seemed not to hear Hu Zongxian's words, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was analyzing Hu Zongxian again, saying: "You also know that Yan Party is passive in the current situation of the court. The position of governor is not big or small. I guess Yan Party is doing the aftermath of Zhao Wenhua's affairs and has no energy to seek an official position for you. Moreover, if Zhao Wenhua dies, who is your person among the Yan Party? Before you step down, you cannot seek a position of governor, and you will be remembered again in the future. I don't know when."

"And Mr. Hu has thought about it, how many years will Mr. Yan have to?"

Zhou Mengchen's words sounded extremely harsh to Hu Zongxian, but I have to say that Zhou Mengchen was telling the truth.

Even within the party, it is also about the top of the mountain. It is as if the prototype of Zhou Mengchen's party has gradually taken shape. There are Zhou Mengchen's own disciples and old subordinates, which are considered as direct descendants, Shanxi Shang ancestry, relevant scholars, and some scholars from Huguang.

This is what Zhou Mengchen is like here, Yan Song's subordinates are not as good as Zhou Mengchen. Hu Zongxian lost his backer within the Yan Party, so the court will only give Hu Zongxian less and less support.

The position of governor, as Zhou Mengchen said, is not big. Because in the top game, this governor is of no use at all. But it is not small. After all, the governor is also a senior official. He controls one side, also known as the position of a reserve member of the court or an important chess piece.

If no one was fighting for Hu Zongxian on top, Hu Zongxian probably wouldn't be the governor if he was the next official.

How could this not make Hu Zongxian worry and depressed? The best sentence Zhou Mengchen said hurt Hu Zongxian even more.

Seventy-three, eighty-four, the King of Hell should not invite himself. At Yan Song's age, news has been heard that Yan Song died and Hu Zongxian believed it. After all, at such an old age, anything can happen.

Hu Zongxian dared not think about what Yan Dang would be like when Yan Song left.

However, this is not the reason Hu Zongxian jumped into the ship.

Yes, Hu Zongxian is prepared to find his next family, but in this era, the unspoken rules of the officialdom have a heavy chain of contempt for the behavior of jumping ship like this. Even if Hu Zongxian wants to jump ship, he should not be exposed before this.

So, Hu Zongxian said, "Sir, there is only you and me here, so I will just say it. The Prime Minister is as kind as a mountain to me, so I cannot betray the Prime Minister."

Zhou Mengchen laughed and said, "Why do I need you to betray Yan Song? I just want you to help me do things? No, it should be said that I do things for the court. After all, if this matter is not done well, the Japanese pirates will definitely go back and forth, and there will be no end."

Hu Zongxian said, "If you want to rectify the garrison, then don't speak out."

Hu Zongxian clearly felt that this was an extremely offensive thing and could even lay hidden dangers for his future career.

Zhou Mengchen's support for Hu Zongxian is probably to attract firepower. It may also be a scapegoat. In short, Hu Zongxian is very worried that Zhou Mengchen will use people first, not people behind.

So Hu Zongxian refused, but he immediately thought of another possibility and said in his heart: "Mr. Zhou will not let me toast and not eat it, so I will be punished by the bar."

In Hu Zongxian's heart, Zhou Mengchen was the kind of ruthless, meticulous and gloomy boss who turned against him faster than flirting with books. Hu Zongxian was originally a minion of the Yan Party. Now he has rejected him. Should he face Zhou Mengchen's thunderous means?

Hu Zongxian's heart suddenly changed a little, and he suddenly had an idea in his heart. It was not unacceptable to go home, or to die, and to bend to follow the thief.

Zhou Mengchen's mind was not as complicated as Hu Zongxian's relationship. He thought for a moment and said, "Before I came, I met Your Majesty and stated what I would do when I came to Jiangnan. One of them was the reform of the military system, the abolishment of all the garrisons in Jiangnan, and the establishment of county seats, taxation, and imitate the Heshuo military system. Use this money to recruit soldiers."

"The success or failure of this matter is directly related to the success or failure of my suppression of the Japanese pirates. It is crucial. I cannot choose anyone to handle this matter for a while. If you are willing, I ask you to take full responsibility for this position and deal with the reform of the ward offices in Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places."

"Mr. Hu, what do you think?"

Zhou Mengchen just told this matter, but he was not afraid of Hu Zongxian's rejection, nor was he afraid of Hu Zongxian passing the news. It could even show that Zhou Mengchen intends to deliver the news.

There is nothing else, the strategy of advancing and reversing.

What system did Zhou Mengchen say about the change? That is, all the land of these garrisons is used by the state and redistributed to the soldiers. It was just an extra link in the middle, and the original intention was still the routine of using land to support soldiers.
