Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

The lunch hosted by Mr. Hu in the palace was a great success for both the host and the guests.

But when he finished his meal, wiped his mouth and walked out of Jinshen Hall, he saw Mao Xiang standing there, as cold as his grandson.

Mao Xiang didn't want to talk anymore.

The slight excitement that had arisen because of Song Li's advance revelation had now been extinguished by the cold wind and freezing rain.

But he could only endure it.

What else to do?

Can he leave early?

He himself has always been a boss, and he knows too well what taboos a boss has to endure.

The boss may not know what gift you gave, but if you didn’t give anything, then he will definitely know.

Isn't he in such a situation now?

He risked his life and came to ask Master Hu for help.

Just as he had expected, Master Hu came to the palace to plead for him.

But at this time, because I received the good news and I am safe, I won’t wait anymore and leave first?

Haha, he felt that no matter how magnanimous Mr. Hu was, if he didn't see his own people when he came out, and when he asked, he found out that they had left first, he would turn around and overturn what had happened before and step on them again.

So, he can only wait!

But... it's so damn cold.

At the beginning, Mao Xiang could still imagine his retirement life to cheer himself up.

But as he thought about it, he stopped wanting to think about it.

Damn it, no matter how much I imagine, I can’t withstand this endless frost, snow and rain!

After all, the breeze blowing over was really cold to the bone.

It was for this reason that when Master Hu came out and saw Mao Xiang, he had already become an ice sculpture squatting there with frost on his eyebrows and beard.

Mr. Hu smacked his lips, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Damn it, you forgot about the person.

Got it!

You still have to say hello.

Don't just save your life from Zhu Yuanzhang with great difficulty, but end up freezing to death because you didn't pay attention to the climate.

That's so fucking unfair.

Master Hu didn't need anyone else. He asked Song Li, who had sent him out, to arrange for the servants, and then watched Mao Xiang, who was almost frozen into a popsicle, being carried away to thaw.

Well, with Song Li's care and the many imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau waiting on him, Mao Xiang should be fine.

However, Master Hu was kind enough to leave a message, asking Mao Xiang to sober up and visit his home.

After strolling back home, Master Hu lay down on the chair and let out a long sigh.

"How did the situation become like this?"

No wonder Mr. Hu sighed.

Originally, he just wanted to hang around in Ming Dynasty for a while, and then slowly get by as a salted fish.

But slowly, things have come to this point step by step.

Not only does he own many properties in Yingtian City, but he has even become a vassal king who is about to be granted the title of king?

Although I don't know what my title is, but since Zhu Yuanzhang has said it, it must be a "One-Character King"!

After all, if you are not a prince of this rank, it would be embarrassing to set up a government office, right?

More than 30,000 acres of land in Hujiazhuang will soon become his own fiefdom, and the new policy will begin to be implemented.

The existing manpower and the talents that will be coming in the future will begin to contribute to Mr. Hu's plan to occupy America and build a country overseas.

If you add all these things together, it seems that Hu Weiyong is definitely an ambitious man who thinks three steps ahead before taking one step.

Otherwise, he was just a prime minister, and a retired prime minister at that, so how did he end up like this?

A person from another family who is not a member of the royal family became the only person in the Ming Dynasty who was allowed to establish his own government and hold the title of Yitong Sansi. Who would believe it if there was no calculation or explanation behind this?

Got it!

Master Hu slapped himself in the face and was completely speechless.

I’m afraid my image will never improve.

He is probably unable to escape the title of the Ming Dynasty's most favored minister and the Ming Dynasty's most ambitious person.

However, Master Hu was only depressed for a moment and didn't think much about it.

Instead of thinking about these things, you might as well think about what to do next!

If others don't understand, shouldn't he himself be clear?

All the efforts and calculations, apart from being partly to appease the resentment in one's heart, are more for the sake of being able to live a safer and more comfortable life in the future.

That's right!

There is no wrong version in the 6 book forum!

Just to give up!

Mr. Hu always believed that he worked so hard and made progress just for the sake of a better life in the future.

After all, there is bitterness before there is sweetness!

Without a safe environment and a good material foundation, how can he give up?

We can't just do the same as before, hiding at home and not going out, and still worrying about when Zhu Yuanzhang will come to clean up the mess?

Now it seems that it is better to take the situation into our own hands.

After figuring it out, Mr. Hu took a deep breath, walked to the desk, picked up a pen and started sketching on the paper.

Since Zhu Yuanzhang is going to be our prime minister, we naturally have to improve the level of this business.

In the past, he was like a ragpicker, looking for someone here and picking up someone there, always timid and unruly.

But now it’s good, we are a formal organization and can see the light of day!

Then we have to think carefully about who is suitable to work in our house?

It seems like this is a funny "feudal country"!

But what if the former emperor and the current emperor serve as prime minister, and the current policy of "vassal state" may be adopted by the Ming Dynasty and promoted nationwide in the future?

Doesn't this suddenly become more important and sacred?

Moreover, Mr. Hu has also come to terms with it.

When recruiting people at this time, you don't necessarily have to recruit people who can follow you in the future.

It is entirely possible to let the talented people of the Ming Dynasty work hard for you first, and at the same time place those who are capable of following you under their guidance to learn.

In this way, things are done, policies are verified, and our own talents are trained scientifically and systematically.

Isn't this definitely killing two birds with one stone?

done!

After figuring it out, Mr. Hu enthusiastically began to sketch it according to his "memory".

Well, can we start thinking about some of the talents during the Yongle period now?

It would be best if I could take it away, but even if I can't, it would be worthwhile to use it for a few years.

The more Mr. Hu thought about it, the more excited he became.

Moreover, it is not just the affairs of the ministers that need to be considered. The establishment of the department and even the arrangement of the "national policy" also require Master Hu to make a general arrangement in advance.

We can't just wait for Zhu Yuanzhang to come and let that old Deng give orders, right?

If that is the case, who does this "vassal state" belong to?

So, if you endure some hardship, Mr. Hu, happiness will come sooner or later!
