When Du Qi heard Pan Da's words, he smiled. Pan Da was tactful and knew when to advance and retreat.
Of course, even if Pan Da received the money, Du Qi wouldn't do anything to Pan Da. After all, in front of all the common people, he couldn't go back on his words. If Du Qi gave the money first and then let people deal with Pan Da, it would be tantamount to slapping his own face.
Du Qi thought for a moment and said, "Shopkeeper Pan is not willing to take the 10,000 strings of coins, but since I took the money out, I can't not give it to him. If the reward and punishment are not clear, it will be hard for me to convince people. I won't take back the 10,000 strings of coins. I will use the 10,000 strings of coins to help the poor people in Yi Province. "
When the common people heard this, they didn't say anything. Because Du Qi had said so, the specific arrangements were Du Qi's business. They couldn't interfere, nor could they interfere.
Du Qi said, "Provincial Governor Luo!"
"Present!"
Luo Yansheng immediately stood up and bowed beside Du Qi. He said, "Your Highness, please give your orders."
In front of all the common people, Du Qi said, "You are in charge of Yi Province, so you are familiar with the situation there. You will investigate the poor people in the three counties of Yi Province. This 10,000 strings of coins will be used as a fund to help them. "
Luo Yansheng said, "This subordinate obeys!"
Du Qi said, "The details of the use of the 10,000 strings of coins must be made public. The details must be made public, including which family and which village the people are from. "
"This way, there will be substance in the words."
"This way, the common people can supervise."
Du Qi said, "Since I gave the money, I will put it into practice and let the poorest people of Yi Province have someone to rely on in their old age. In addition, this prince will allocate ten thousand strings of cash every year to help the poorest people. "
"Long live Ping Xi Wang!"
With Du Qi's words, the common people's emotions were stirred up again.
The common people were excited.
Although 10,000 strings of coins was not a lot in the whole of Yi Province, the advantage was that it was continuous. It was especially good that Du Qi was willing to take care of the poorest people and help them.
It was better than not doing anything about it.
Therefore, the people began to shout again.
Wave after wave of shouts came like waves, each louder than the last.
Liu Zhengxi and Guo Xiaozheng stood at the back.
When the two of them saw the magnificent scene, Liu Zhengxi exclaimed in admiration, "Brother Guo, His Highness' methods are truly superb. Originally, it was a simple matter, but now that he had encountered an assassination attempt, it could be considered extremely disadvantageous. However, His Highness's words had completely won over the hearts of the people. After this incident, Luo Yansheng's influence in Yiwu City has been reduced to the lowest. "
After a pause, Liu Zhengxi continued, "Your Highness has already gained a foothold in Yiwu City."
Guo Xiaozheng said, "Your Highness, be it in terms of methods or wisdom, you are like a god. The more he followed His Highness, the more he understood. Especially the cement and down jackets, which were all made by His Highness. Sometimes, I wonder what exactly is in Your Highness' head. "
The two of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed.
Both of them were deeply moved.
However, the two of them also rejoiced, because the two of them were people who worked for Du Qi.
The shouts of the people continued, but Du Qi did not say anything else. He had already said what he needed to say in front of the people. Therefore, after saluting Du Qi, he gave the order to enter the city.
Amidst the cheers of the people, the army entered the city.
The army headed straight for the barracks in the city. This was led by Ta Mu 'er and Wu Nasili. After all, in the past, the two of them were in charge of military matters.
Du Qi's group was led by Luo Yansheng to the new residence. On the way to Yiwu County, Luo Yansheng had already told Du Qi that he had a rather spacious residence in the county. Moreover, it was in the northern region of the city and could be given to Du Qi to live in as a prince's residence.
Du Qi naturally accepted.
After living there, he could make some slight modifications and it could become his own Ping Xi Wang Residence.
He could not be bothered to rebuild the Ping Xi Wang Residence.
The group of people arrived at the residence. Because Luo Yansheng had already arranged for someone to come back first to deliver the message, the residence had already been tidied up. The residence occupied an area of more than twenty mu and there were many other residences.
These residences could be used as offices.
For the time being, the secretaries of the Prince's Mansion were allowed to work.
When the group of people arrived, Du Qi did not host a banquet in the residence. Instead, he let Luo Yansheng and the others return to their respective positions and start to deal with the adjustment of government affairs. Liu Zhengxi, Guo Xiaozheng, Yu Deshui and the others had to familiarize themselves with the environment and rearrange the offices. All these needed to be rearranged.
Only Du Qi was free for the time being.
Because many of the details were handled by Liu Zhengxi and the others, he only needed to sort out everything properly. Fortunately, these matters were not difficult for Liu Zhengxi and the others.
In a short time, everything was sorted out properly.
Many of the books that had been transported were all in place. The group of aides had already started to deal with their own matters.
In the evening, in the study.
Du Qi sat on the main seat.
Liu Zhengxi, Guo Xiaozheng, Yu Deshui, Yuan Yin and Yi Fusheng sat below.
During the day, Yuan Yin and Yi Fusheng had completed the handover. They handed over all the affairs of the Provincial Governor's Residence and then came to the residence to deal with the affairs.
Now, they mainly dealt with the affairs of the residence.
They did not care about the rest.
Du Qi glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Today is the first meeting we held after arriving in Yiwu County. Our foundation will start from here. "
"Right now, the area under my control is only Yizhou. Although I may not be able to truly control the land of Yi Province, I want to tell you that a mere Yi Province is not my ambition. "
"I will not go to Guazhou or Shazhou, but we will go all the way west, through the Western Region, and even to Persia."
"I hope to build an empire."
"Although the title of Pacifying West King was conferred by His Majesty. His Majesty allowed me to take these places and build my own country. But I hope to build a bigger empire, and even the empire under my control can be comparable to the Tang Dynasty, or even far surpass the Tang Dynasty. "
Du Qi said, "Do you understand this point?"
Everyone raised their eyebrows when they heard this. Their faces were filled with astonishment.
They generally knew Du Qi's ambition.
But this time, Du Qi did not hold back. He directly said that he wanted to build an empire comparable to the Tang Dynasty, or even far surpass the Tang Dynasty. It could be said that Du Qi's ambition was incomparably huge. Everyone was shocked.
While they were shocked, they were also excited. Because of Du Qi's ambition, they, who followed Du Qi, had more opportunities and more development.
Liu Zhengxi said solemnly, "I will do my best to assist Your Highness."
The rest of the people expressed their opinions.
They all supported Du Qi.
Du Qi nodded and said, "Since you already know, the direction of our efforts is set. I hope that after you know this King's goal, you can really calm down and do things well. "
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "A thousand miles of dike can be destroyed by an ant's nest. If the foundation is not solid, it is impossible to develop and take off. Now we must lay a solid foundation step by step, develop Yizhou well, and then start the road of expansion. "
Liu Zhengxi and others agreed again.
All of them were filled with fighting spirit. Du Qi had already stirred up the ambitions in their hearts, giving them even more motivation.
Du Qi looked at them and nodded slightly.
His intention was to stimulate their motivation and make Liu Zhengxi and the others work tirelessly. He didn't want Du Qi to slack off just because he had a place in the organization.
