As an official, to do things for the people and help the court required power and money in handOtherwise, it was i Wanli had Fan Xian as a support, no one in the Ministry of Works ordered hih the River Transport Governor's yamen was a mess, he had the power to directly transfer money from the palace treasuryIn this matter, no one could create obstacles for hier the innocent and pure youth of the past who dared to cry and storht of this, he felt deep admiration for his teacher's lecture that year beside Xi Lake in Hangzhou
At this moment, the endless riverbanks beneath their feet were the result of Yang Wanli's year of workEvery time he saw the square rocks, yellow dirt, and tamed river below the riverbanks, his heart filled with satisfaction and prideThe patched clothing on his body and dark appearance all beca Wanli knew that he was able to achieve his dream because of old Minister Fan and Sir Fan junior's meticulous care and promotionHe was both happy and worried about his teacher's arrival and said what he did earlier
Everyone knew that Fan Xian had been attacked on his return to JingdouYang Wanli was concerned about his teacher's health
Fan Xian shook his head and gazed at the river beneath his feet and said, ”No worries, don't think so highly of meI am a lazy personI won't be so busy with state affairs that I har faraspedThey have no way to retaliateHowever, if ant to s the Wanli could understand what his wordsfamilyWhat was i familyIf Fan Xian didn't create a taboo situation for the Palace, the Ming fao
Fan Xian sive any details of the situationHe only coreat returnsAlthough the Eovernance, the changing of blood on the court has begun…you should have seen Cheng Jialin's name on the imperial bulletin”
”Yes, Jialin is the first of us four to return to the capital for a post,” Yang Wanli said happilyAlthough the investigation into the attack on Fan Xian ca Emperor had used this opportunity to chase away a bunch of old people and inserted many new people into the courtThe least fa Jialin, was selected and promoted over many ranksNow, he was a member of the Ministry of Rites and a key lanced at him and smiled”Of the four of you, Jialin is the most silent and mediocreDespite this, his path was s's problem lies with meIf I hadn't called him to Jiaozhou, he would not have sunk into such an i Wanli shook his head and said, ”Teacher, what are you saying? For the Jiaozhouhas written to me and said that this was an i could have handled it”
Fan Xian noddedSince the four of theles, he didn't need to explain anymore
The two of them followed the riverbank downstreamAs they strolled, they chatted leisurelyFan Xian reminded him, ”I know of your work in the river works ya Wanli' has entered the Palace, this will be greatly beneficial to your futureHowever, you have to res like river repairs and in things you kno to do, you should work hard at theive orders rando been on the riverbanks for a year, even things I don't understand, I know a little of it now”
Fan Xian glanced at him with disapproval and said, ”The river works is an important businessIt is even more important than the battles in Xi Lake and Northern QiIf you only understand a little…how could it be enough that you can speak with such confidence?”
Yang Wanli i with embarrassh to stop a river disaster” Fan Xian furrowed his brows”This is a decade-long job or even a century-long jobAs long as there are people living on the two banks of the Great River, it will have to be repairedYou have to lose your pride and irritation…you must be satisfied and silent”
”Yes, teacher”
”However, you have to take care to train a few capable subordinates and specialists,” Fan Xian said sincerely”Although you have the desire to create happiness for the people, after being exposed to the elements for many years, your body probably won't be able to take itTrain some capable people, and there will be no need to stay in the river works yadou and work seriously there”
Yang Wanli was startled and quickly said, ”Teacher, I don't want to return to the capitalThe capital is much more troublesome than the river banks…besides, I' used to it”
”Of course, the capital is troublesos, you have to return to the capital,” Fan Xian said resolutely”This has nothing to do hether or not you can handle the hardshi+pI' for a few e to not even have a wife yet, ould people say if that got out?”
Yang Wanli was unhappy but didn't say anything eFan Xian was younger than all four of his disciplesHowever, whenever they ran into each other, Fan Xian was beco on his teacher role and lecturing themThis was probably as meant by ”different environ few days, Fan Xian continued to linger in YingzhouMost of the ti WanliHowever, it was inevitable he would receive a feast invitation froovernor's yamenFan Xian could make excuses to normal local officials, but this time, the river works Governor had come personally to extend his invitationWith such face, he really had no choice
The reason the Governor invited Fan Xian out was very siovernor yamen lacked was silver, and the palace treasury that Fan Xian controlled was full of silverThis year, the river banks governor's yareatly rewarded by the EmperorThis was because Fan Xian, openly and not, had been very war of silverFor such a favor, the Governor had no choice but to be thankful
What confused Yang Wanli hy his teacher continued to linger in YingzhouA surveying Jiangnan Road i of the riverbanksHowever, looking at Fan Xian's appearance, it looked like he was preparing to stay for half ato Suzhou?” One day, Yang Wanli gathered his courage and asked
”No rush, I'll wait a bit longer”
Fan Xian sdou was in the north and Suzhou was in the eastAt this zhou and watched as about to happen on the two sides with cold eyes, like a porter carrying baskets of spiky fruitsCoincidentally, a shoulder pole took all of the weight, so he was not worried about the spiky fruits pricking his thigh
He aiting for the event in Suzhou to properly begin and the Jingdou zhou was the best place to watch the showAlthough in the eyes of the officials he was someone who liked to cause trouble, in such a sensitive time, he still had to avoid suspicion

The proble family's income and cause serious problee as the Ming family's, no matter how much money was available, it was still very difficult to reach this goalThe problem was that Fan Xian had full authority over the palace treasury and a death grip on the supply of goodsIt was equivalent to having a chokehold on the Ming fa the lead, with the full cooperation of the deputy of the palace treasury transport company and the cousin of Ren Shao'an, and with the clever planning by a few of Qingyu Hall's old shopkeepers from the end of last summer, the production of the three workshops in the palace treasury had gradually increasedThe quality had also risen greatly
Without, more supply needed to be taken inIt was i fa this tireatly relaxed their harass faainIn a flash, they had taken on countless goods and were shi+pping theh such a large shi+p fae would bring silver back into the accountThis was the reason he was feeling relaxed during those daysIf it continued like this, what a lovely future it would be
