Good news, all these young masters from Xiangzhou have successfully entered the Konghe Mansion.
The bad news is that after being raided and trained by Duke Yun, this group of people were scattered to various places and worked like slaves.
Huang Jincheng sighed inwardly, he was worthy of being the Duke of Yun, as he had foiled their plan with just one move.
It seems that it is no longer possible to form the Xiangzhou Gang in the harem of Duke Yun.
Forget it. I came to Yunzhou just to test the waters and then decide the extent of cooperation between the Huang family and Duke Yun.
After learning from Mr. Huang about the importance of the first political and economic conference in the north, Huang Jincheng decided to visit Duke Yun after the meeting.
Since Huang Jincheng was here, Huang Laosan naturally wouldn't let him go, and he forced him to go to the countryside to publicize the new policy.
As the date of the political meeting approaches, Fuming Town is crowded with people.
In order to avoid accidents, the government strictly controlled the number of people entering Fuming Town three days before and during the meeting.
"Ah? Why won't you let us in? It's not like we can't afford the entrance fee!"
"Are you bullying us outsiders?!"
A caravan wanted to incite the common people who were also unable to enter the city to cause trouble.
Who knew that the people around them would look at them as if they were fools.
The kind-hearted old man advised: "The government has their reasons for doing this. Anyway, it's only seven days. You can go to Huaishuo Town and Woye Town, which are not far away, to take a look. After the meeting is over, we can enter Fuming Town."
The caravan members were unwilling to accept this. They pointed at the tricycles next to them and questioned the soldiers guarding the city: "Why can they get in?!"
The soldiers guarding the city took a quick look and saw an old man sitting on the tricycle, along with two children, a boy and a girl.
"They are representatives of the people of Yuyi Town. They are here for a meeting, so of course they can go in."
The people in the caravan were dumbfounded. Although those people in the car were dressed neatly, they were not rich. How could they be representatives of the people and be able to attend a meeting? !
What is going on in Yunzhou? How is this going to start?
At the Governor's Mansion, Su Yunyan, as the host of the meeting, with exquisite makeup, introduced the process to everyone present.
"This political and economic meeting is divided into three parts: internal meetings, interpretation of Yunzhou's new policies, and the conference."
Su Yunyan glanced at the people in the hall. Wang Buxi, Yan Tongchu, Cui Sanlun, Gu Hai, the mayors of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and other important figures were all present.
The partitions on both sides of the Governor's Mansion were removed, making the entire hall three times larger, enough to accommodate all these people. This was also the first time that so many people came.
They sat on chairs with a solid wooden desk in front of them, on which were writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone.
Everyone stared at Su Yunyan with serious expressions.
Su Yunyan took a deep breath and said calmly: "The first internal meeting of the North has officially begun!"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but straighten their backs, not blinking, and listening with their ears pricked up, for fear of missing a single word.
Su Yunyan turned to Gu Nanxi who was sitting at the top and said, "Now, please allow Duke Yun to speak."
Gu Nanxi's gaze swept across the faces of the people below.
The look they gave him was full of trust and admiration.
Gu Nanxi had no doubt at all that even if he said they were going to rebel tomorrow, they would support him without hesitation.
The trust as heavy as a mountain weighed heavily on Gu Nanxi's heart.
Gu Nanxi said in a deep voice: "All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects. And I am the king!"
Crash!
Everyone stood up at the same time, their excitement turned into applause.
The prolonged applause almost blew the roof off.
Wang Buxi's face flushed and his palms were red and painful from being slapped, but he seemed not to feel the pain. Only through applause could he vent the excitement in his heart.
In such a serious meeting, Duke Yun said these words in person, which meant that she would never be satisfied with the three counties and would definitely move south!
And this is exactly what their followers are looking forward to!
They want to follow Duke Yun to create great achievements, open up a new era, and go down in history.
When everyone had almost vented their anger, Gu Nanxi raised his hand and pressed it down.
Silence soon returned to the hall.
The eyes of Wang Buxi and others were almost shining, and their gazes were fixed on Gu Nanxi.
King, please guide us in the direction we should go.
King, please allow us to expand your territory!
Feeling this strong desire to fight, Gu Nanxi couldn't help but feel excited.
However, she is the decision maker and the leader, and she must remain absolutely calm, make plans, and move towards her goals.
"We will spend three to five years digesting the results of the war and consolidating the area north of Hezhong County. We will build high walls, store up food, and slowly claim the throne."
"In the meantime, we have to..."
The warm sunlight shines through the glass windows into the hall, coating the attendees with a layer of gold.
After Gu Nanxi set the tone, everyone spoke freely and even had a heated debate.
The meeting lasted from morning to night, and then continued to the next day and the day after.
…
"Grandpa, this is Yunzhou. I'm finally in Yunzhou!" Du Minjie and Du Minzhen helped their grandfather get off the tricycle.
"You talk as if you've never been here. This is my first time here!" Du Minzhen looked greedily at everything on the street, her eyes unable to see enough.
Du Minjie smiled naively and said, "When I was learning from my master, I stayed in Woye Town and rarely came to Fuming Town. Moreover, things were completely different back then compared to now!"
Not long after Du Minjie learned from Mr. Xu, rubber tires were developed.
Yunzhou has a huge demand for rubber, which puts great pressure on the cultivation of Eucommia trees.
Mr. Du hurriedly called back his grandson who was very talented in planting trees.
Although Mr. Xu was very dissatisfied with this, he knew the importance of rubber and had to let Du Minjie return to Yuyi Town.
Before leaving, Mr. Xu copied a copy of his life experience and gave it to Du Minjie, reminding him not to forget to study.
I didn’t expect that we would be apart for so long.
"Oh, Mr. Du, Mr. Du, and Ms. Du are here. Please come in!" The innkeeper invited the three of them in enthusiastically.
This inn was booked by the government and was used exclusively for accommodation of conference delegates.
The three generations of the Du family arrived relatively late, while the other representatives arrived yesterday.
Ma Nantian also lives in this inn.
Although he owned property in Fuming Town and the living conditions were much better than in an inn, he still chose to stay in the inn.
Because, this is glory!
Ma Nantian's face was beaming as he greeted the three members of the Du family with a smile, and then warmly introduced the other representatives to them.
Hasi from Haoriqin, Song Da from a clothing store, Lü Runniang from Xin'an County, Xia Laosan from a restaurant, and Sun the widow from Hezhong Prefecture...
There are men and women, young and old, from all walks of life. (End of this chapter)
