Chapter 194
After a general discussion, if Huainan's water conservancy project is built according to the design drawings in the booklet, 800 million guan is not necessarily enough, but Zhao Guangyi has a confident guarantee that 1000 million guan will be no problem.

After all, the 300 million was only raised in Kaifeng, and the time was short, and the wealthy businessmen in Kaifeng hadn’t had time to raise money. As soon as this remark came out, Zhao Guangyi’s eyes changed when he looked at Zhao Guangyi again, especially when he was always moody. The complexion of Zhao Pu is as black as the bottom of a pot.

We must know that water conservancy projects have always been the achievements of civil servants, and they are also the best way for a civil servant to increase his prestige. For example, Fan Zhongyan later rose to the top because he built a thousand-mile seawall in Taizhou, and later became the Shenggong of the Song Dynasty.

Of course, this is also the most difficult way. The manpower, material and military power involved in this is too great, and ordinary people can't play it at all, especially in the era when the official circles of the Song Dynasty were constrained by layers and no one had the final say. The dynasty was the richest, but the Song Dynasty never built a large-scale water conservancy project in 300 years, and the addition of one in 300 years was not as much as Chai Rong did in seven years.

If this thing is done, even an ordinary civil servant will become a civil servant leader in one step, let alone Zhao Guangyi?

You must know that Zhao Guangyi's official position has long been an extremely personable minister, and Zhao Kuangyin almost used everything in order to gain his prestige. For example, he stipulated that the generals of Kaifeng Mansion must never raise relatives, but Zhao Guangyi can raise them in a grand manner, hundreds of thousands Zhao Kuangyin not only didn't blame him when he saw it, but also invited his soldiers to dinner.

And the reason why Zhao Guangyi still couldn't get up even though his brother praised him so much was that he had no credit.

Military exploits are impossible, not in this life, Zhao Guangyi is not suitable for war at all, and in the past few years, Zhao Guangyi has obviously followed the line of civil servant leaders, and this merit is in the contemporary water conservancy project, once it is true After repairing, he, Zhao Guangyi, has made up for the last shortcoming. He dare not say that he can stabilize Zhao Pu from now on, but it is difficult for Zhao Pu to bully him like before.

Could Zhao Kuangyin entrust this job to others?Of course not, his most important task now is to gain prestige for Zhao Guangyi. In the later period, even Zhao Pu was sent home in order to gain prestige for Zhao Guangyi. Of course, it is impossible to miss such a good opportunity. In addition to Zhao Guangyi, Zhao Pu is also qualified to preside over the court.

Therefore, the court decided on the matter on the spot, and even a few days later, gossip spread that the second great king had made great contributions in offering advice, and he would be formally crowned king after the levee was repaired.

All this naturally made Zhao Pu extremely uncomfortable, and when he returned home, he smashed a few antique vases, and it was not over yet. In less than three days, he received a post from Zhao Guangyi, asking the Privy Council for the two Huaihe defense plans for the next three years, Because what the officials mean is that the army, money, and people in the two Huaihe Rivers were dispatched by the two kings alone during the construction of the embankment.

This is reaching out to the Privy Council, but Zhao Pu has nothing to do about it, he can only endure it.

Spread Zhao Guangyi's memorabilia on the table and study it carefully. The creativity in it can be called a powerful and unconstrained style, and what's even more rare is that it doesn't leak. With his ability, he can't find any obvious loopholes. The wealthy businessman in Kaifeng, with millions of dollars in silver, was clearly arranged by him.

This is definitely not Zhao Guangyi's handwriting, how can he have such a skill, then the person behind the scenes is obvious: Sun Chunming.

Thinking about the time when the Sun family father and son played with themselves and Shi Shouxin in the applause at the same time in a few words, even Zhao Pu couldn't help but feel cold for a while, and a strong sense of crisis arose.

"Come on, go to the Sun Mansion, invite my good apprentice, and tell me that I want to test his homework."

…………

Similarly, at this time Zhao Kuangyin also placed two memorials in front of him, one from Zhao Dezhao and one from Zhao Guangyi.Seeing that his younger brother and son are so promising, he couldn't help but look happy like a chrysanthemum.

Of course he knows that this is not their own ability, but what does it matter? The superior is not omniscient. If he is talking about planning and planning skills, he is not as good as Zhao Pu. To make good use of talents, isn't this the whole work of the emperor?

It's just that the people behind these two strategies are very interesting. Sun Yue and Sun Chunming, a father and son, voted separately. Is this a double bet?
"Qianjun, what do you think the Sun family father and son are thinking?"

Hearing this, Zhang Qianjun could only smile wryly and said: "This is something that the chief executives of the court should consider. How can a servant and eunuch understand this?"

"Come on, I still don't know your skills? It's just the two of us buddies here, don't play sloppy with me."

Zhang Qianjun's heart warmed when he heard the words, although he also knew that Zhao Kuangyin's style of speaking was like that, and he was buddies with everyone, and it was probably because he said it smoothly for a while, but he, a eunuch, can pretend to be a buddy like his master, and he really spewed out a few points for a while. Touched by the death of a confidant.

"The servant thinks that there is a disagreement between the father and son."

"Oh? Tell me in detail."

"Although the servant and the father and son are not familiar, but they have met several times, they are both like the country's unparalleled people, if such a person is doing the speculation of the politician, the servant will not believe it, let alone Well, based on the abilities of their father and son, no matter who will succeed you in the future, as long as they don’t offend you, won’t they still be prime ministers? On the contrary, it’s like this now. From a personal point of view, it’s harmful. There is no benefit, the talents of the two of them can be seen from these two memorials, there is no doubt, no matter who is under him, it must be the mastermind, I have never heard of it, this mastermind has two ends Those who place bets, aren’t they making themselves unhappy.”

Zhao Kuangyin nodded when he heard the words, "Yes, that's why I couldn't understand it."

"My servant thinks that such a capable person must have his principles and his stubbornness. Sun Dalang's success today is all due to the cultivation of the second king. He has long been unable to repay the kindness he received from the second king. Ah, I must be unable to come down, but this Mr. Sun Xiaolang is also the apprentice of Privy Zhao. After all, when he was apprenticed to Privy Zhao, Privy Zhao and the second king were quite harmonious. Who would have thought of today's incident? It is difficult for him to let him abandon his master and go to the Second Great King, and according to the observations I have made with Mr. Sun Xiaolang, although this child is small, his heart is not small. His ambition is on the battlefield. Seeing that he is a literati, but his desire to make contributions is stronger than that of ordinary warriors, he may not be willing to ask him to be transferred from the Privy Council, so the father and son are twisted, and they were given by the second king and Privy Councilor Zhao. It's clipped."

"Well...it makes sense. These two are both great scholars of the country. With a little tempering, they will definitely be the mainstay of our Song Dynasty in the future. If they are caught in this kind of meaningless struggle, they may lose their wings, and they will be useless. If you win any one, it is not the blessing of the Great Song Dynasty."

Zhang Qianjun said with a smile: "The officials are pity on their talents, and the servants are talking too much. Isn't the universe of the Song Dynasty in your hands? The difficulties of the Sun family and their sons are naturally natural to them. It's a big question, but for you, isn't that a matter of your words? It depends on the official, whose problem you want to solve in your heart. Do you value the father more? Or the son? Or, who do you want to untie first?"
