Seven days later, in the study room in the Lanzhou City Governor’s Mansion...

"I didn't expect that Yan Liqiang, a child, had some tricks. The bank run crisis of the Zhong family's money house was resolved by him!" Gu Tongan, who was half lying on the soft collapse, looked at the latest issue of the "Han Empire Times" in his hand, and said in an indifferent tone, "But it will be resolved. This time I also wanted to take the opportunity to hit the Zhong family and make the Zhong family be more honest. If you really make the Zhong family anxious, the consequences will probably not be easy to control. The Zhong family is in the northwest and is not so easy to deal with..."

In front of Lanzhou Governor Gu Tong'an, the adviser whom he relied on was Yunwu.

"Yan Liqiang made a big fuss this time and let the world's No. 1 factory deposit 10 million taels of silver for the Zhong family's money house. The newly established wool trading market in Yingwei County also allowed the Zhong family's money house to invest in shares, accounting for 20% of the shares. Everyone knows that the wool trading market will be the chicken that lays golden eggs in the future. The Zhong family's money house not only invested in shares in the market, but also all the transactions in the market are designated by the cash silver and the banknotes issued by the Zhong family's money house. The banknotes of the six northwest states are now difficult to cash out, and it is a bit difficult to use. These two things are combined, and through the publicity of the "Da Han Empire Times", everyone knows that the Zhong family's money house has money, so the crisis of the Zhong family's money house will naturally be resolved, and no one will run again!"

"This is ten million taels of silver, and I'll take it out as soon as I say it. That kid is so rich. Now in the whole northwest, I'm afraid I can't find a second person who is richer than that kid. All my wealth I have accumulated over the years as an official is not as much as a workshop under his command..." Gu Tongan's tone was full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

"The world's No. 1 factory makes money every day, and the manufacturing bureau and Yunyan are all in the hands of Yan Liqiang. Now the wool on the Gulang Grassland will soon be controlled by him. Not to mention the northwest, in two years, the entire Han Empire is probably not able to find any richer people than him. His launch has attracted the jealousy of the wealthy families in the northwest. Everyone imitates it. The northwest has not much property. In the past, the main income of many wealthy families in the northwest actually relies on land rent, so they value the fields. Now everyone knows that if you want to make a lot of money, you can't rely on the land alone, but you have to rely on factories and workshops, machines, and wool. In the past two years, the whole northwest has set off a trend of opening factories and workshops. Even the countryside of Lanzhou has opened steam mills and steam sawmills. Speaking of which, this trend is really learned from him!"

"You're right!" Gu Tong'an shook the "Han Empire Times" in his hand. "Besides, I really didn't see that this small newspaper was so useful before, nor did I pay attention to it. Now I have discovered that this thing is so effective at critical moments. It is even more effective than the government's announcement and the imperial court's newspaper. Whoever masters this can influence the public opinion. As soon as this newspaper reports on the good news about the Zhongjia Money House, everyone thinks that the Zhongjia Money House is fine. The bank runs suddenly disappear, which is more effective than anyone else. I think we have to do this in Lanzhou, and we can also make a copy. You can remember it. You are responsible for this matter. It should not be difficult to find a few people. All the money expenditures, go to the Guanjia Butler Gu to collect..."

"Yes, I've recorded it. Yan Liqiang is indeed the first to be a trend. He made all four-wheeled carriages in newspapers, water and lighters, and they all have great uses. We can stare at him more in the future and see what new things he has made!"

"After you say this, I remembered it. A few days ago, our craftsmanship camp had already made a water and lighter machine from the Manufacturing Bureau. I heard that a boat could run on the water. I have pretended to be sick in the mansion these days, but I haven't visited it. I heard that the water and fire wheels of the craftsmanship bureau under the yellow-haired child are now running on the river surface, and they are recruiting people and goods. I wonder how effective our craftsmanship creates water and fire wheels?"

"Ahem, this... Although our craftsmanship camp also imitated water and fire wheels, the effect was not very good. The water and fire wheels frequently failed. The water and fire wheels tried twice, but they didn't run far on the water and fell down..."

"It's all ordinary people. I only know how to ask me for money and ask them to make something, but they are not as good as others!" Gu Tongan was angry all of a sudden, "It's fine if they can't compare to Yan Liqiang. After all, Yan Liqiang is a master craftsman. There are not many people in the Han Empire who can compare to him. But can't even compare to Yan Liqiang's craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau? The craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau were just people from Pingxi Martial Arts Camp. They have no ability. They are all craftsmen from Yizhou Martial Arts Camp. How come they can't compare to others? They can't buy things and do something as simple as imitation?"

"Sir, please calm down. This craftsman's skills cannot be improved every day. Besides, the craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau have been emphasized by Yan Li, and their abilities have probably exceeded the level of the county-level craftsmanship camp. Moreover, I heard that all the rules in the Manufacturing Bureau are different from those outside, and even the tools used are different from those outside. Now the Manufacturing Bureau has absorbed a large number of top craftsmen in the northwest of the capital, and their strength has long been different from those used. For a while, the craftsmen in our craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau will be exactly the same as those made by the craftsmen in the Manufacturing Bureau. I'm afraid it will be a bit unrealistic in a short time..."

When Gu Tongan heard his confidant speak for those craftsmen, he was a little relieved, but he was still very angry. "Then give them some time, just one year. If they cannot reach the level of the manufacturing bureau in a year, everyone in Lanzhou craftsmanship camp will be punished and punished. I don't believe that they can't even imitate such a simple thing. What are they doing for them..."

The adviser named Yunhou looked at Gu Tongan helplessly, and could not say anything more. "The things in this craftsman camp can be put aside first. I see that Qi Yun County published this time in the "Han Empire Times" to establish Gulang Province and Heike Province, as well as the means of recruiting talents in literary and military affairs, is truly worthy of attention. Yan Liqiang is very ambitious. If he wants to deal with him, he must make plans early..."

"Let him do whatever he wants, I have a way here, once and for all..." Gu Tongan's voice suddenly became cold, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes, and a sneer appeared on his face, "I don't believe it and can't find anyone else to do it..."

"Sir, this matter must not be done!" Yunzhu's voice suddenly lowered and he quickly dissuaded, "I opposed it when I sent someone to contact Youming before. Now I still disagree. Lord and Yan Liqiang are important officials in the northwest. The dispute between you two is a political dispute. Then the Jinzhou court appointed Yan Liqiang as the king of Northwest. You can disagree with this result and use your own means. But if you use such means to deal with Yan Liqiang, the nature of this matter will change. Once this matter is exposed, the consequences are unimaginable. Now, except for the White Lotus Sect, there are other means..."

"You don't need to ask about this matter, I will naturally deal with it!" Gu Tongan coldly interrupted his confidant adviser's words, with a look of pointing out to Jiangshan on his face, "Yunzhu, you are good at everything, but sometimes you are not ruthless and decisive enough. If one person dies, you can save the northwest, why not do it? I think the time is right at this time. If Yan Liqiang is assassinated, the White Lotus Sect or Shatu people are naturally the most suspicious. Who would suspect me? And if the yellow-haired child is in trouble, the current Pingxi Prince's Mansion will definitely fall apart. At that time, we can just take advantage of the situation. What's wrong with it? Why bother playing tricks with him all day like now, and caring about what he has done all day..."

"grown ups……"

"Okay, I'm a little tired and want to rest. Yun Bai, please step back..." Gu Tongan waved impatiently.

"Then let's take a break early..." Yun Bai looked at Gu Tongan, sighed, and had to retreat and leave the study room!

Seeing Gu Tongan leave, Gu Tongan shook his head, leisurely picked up the teacup in front of him, blew it gently, took a sip of tea, and then said to himself, "Peasy, this officialdom of the Han Empire is not as clean as you think, and you don't hold a knife in your hand, how to be a governor? This is what Your Majesty said to me back then..."

"You're right!" A sudden voice rang in Gu Tongan's ears so plainly.
