Hearing this, Gu Siyuan nodded in approval, and then looked at Ran Fang expectantly.
From what he heard just now, he already understood what Ran Fang and the others were going to do. Being able to do something for Da Qin was also an honor for the Gu family.
Therefore, when he heard that the Gu family was going to Baiyue, he was very happy.
"gentlemen?"
Ran Fang's eyes did not stay on him for a moment, but looked at Zhang Han.
As a minister and a close minister of Ying Zheng, some of Zhang Han's ideas were actually the thoughts of the ministers in the court, and they also slightly represented some of Ying Zheng's thoughts.
Going to Baiyue is a big event for Great Qin. If a merchant is involved, his temperament will change, which may not be what Ying Zheng wants to see.
If his answer does not satisfy Zhang Han, then with Zhang Han's temperament, he will definitely tell the truth to Ying Zheng, and it will be impossible for the Gu family to follow him to Baiyue.
Ran Fang naturally knew this truth, but he didn't have the slightest dissatisfaction in his heart. After all, Zhang Han also had responsibilities, and he believed that his reasons would make them unable to refuse.
"This matter is actually very simple. The Gu family is a businessman. Although the business in the mansion does not go that far, they are still well-known merchants in the land of Guandong, and there are many ways. It will be more convenient for them to go out to do things."
"This is one of them. It's more appropriate to take the Gu family with you."
"Secondly, since we want to do business with other countries, we naturally have to sell some things that they don't have, especially novelty things, so the Gu family can discover the business opportunities when they go to Baiyue."
"Especially things like tea, ceramics, etc. These are all rare items for the Xiongnu, and they will exchange them without food."
"So, let the Gu family use the pretext of delivering things, and then find things suitable for business along the way, and sell them to the Xiongnu, the Western Regions and other places. It will definitely be a best-seller."
"With these things, it will not be a problem to open the door to trade between the Xiongnu and the Western Regions."
"Through the gradual buying and selling business, we can slowly understand the situation of the Xiongnu and the Western Regions, and it will not be a problem to disintegrate their internal forces."
Listening to Ran Fang's explanation, Zhang Han understood the meaning and couldn't help but be moved by Ran Fang, and even nodded.
Going to Baiyue this time is a big deal, and it would be best if we could kill two birds with one stone.
Especially Ying Zheng's thoughts on the Xiongnu. As a minister, he knows best. Now that Ran Fang has a way to kill the Huns, how can he refuse?
"good!"
"This method is very good!"
"Sir, you are indeed admirable. I will report this matter to Your Majesty immediately and tell him what is in his heart."
Ran Fang nodded slightly, noncommittal on the matter.
As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. It is most appropriate for Zhang Han to say these things. After all, he is not so happy every time he enters the palace to find Ying Zheng.
After the matter was resolved, he looked at Fusu again and asked, "Do you have an idea of the candidates to go to Baiyue?"
Those preparations are difficult to say, but easy to say.
Now that the candidates have been selected, the rest is to let them say goodbye to their families, and to take Da Qin's "technology" with them. It is not difficult to prepare.
Therefore, the most important thing now is to select people.
When Ran Fang asked, Fusu's face suddenly showed a hint of joy.
"Of course it already exists."
"Hu Hai came to me at that time and said that he deeply regretted the disaster relief work. If my father was willing to give him another chance, he would definitely not come back privately like last time."
"Seeing how sincere he is, I think it's most appropriate for Hu Hai to do this."
"This time I went to Baiyue and Xiang Yu and others were there. I just conveyed the emperor's will and then settled the people from Baiyue this time with Xiang Yu, so it's not a difficult task."
"We will be able to return soon, so it is most appropriate for Hu Hai to go."
"My father has to prepare for the food bank in the city. This matter also requires time and manpower. I will just stay in the city to do this."
"After much deliberation, it is most appropriate for Hu Hai to go. It can not only express my father's attitude towards Baiyue, but also solve the matter smoothly without delaying the affairs in the city. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone."
"How did you do, sir?"
Gu Siyuan, who didn't know Fusu well, couldn't help but nodded, feeling that Fusu's analysis made sense.
Moreover, he also knew Hu Hai. Although he was a prince, he didn't seem to care much about the affairs of the court, but he was very interested in playing and eating. This time he went to pick things up, so Hu Hai was also suitable.
Although he knew that he could not speak about the affairs in the court, he was still willing to express his opinion and said, "Okay, if Mr. Hu Hai goes, the Gu family is also willing to help."
"With Gu's care on the road, there won't be any problems."
"Don't worry, Mr. Fusu and Mr. Gu, the Gu family will take good care of Mr. Hu Hai."
After hearing his assurance, Fusu glanced at him, smiled and nodded to him, expressing his approval of his words.
However, everyone present except Gu Siyuan could see Fusu's thoughts. Ran Fang and Zhang Han also saw Fusu's gloating expression when he said these words.
Although he was well hidden, he was still a bit unsatisfied to this group of "human spirits".
Zhang Han was very surprised. When did Mr. Fusu act and speak like Ran Fang?
However, he did not say this. He just looked at Fusu and said with some disapproval: "It is a long way to go to Baiyue this time, and it is of great importance. Young Master Hu Hai is still young, so he should do this... I’m afraid there’s something wrong?”
"I don't think His Majesty will agree. Mr. Fusu should think of another choice."
"What do you think, sir?"
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Ran Fang again, waiting for Ran Fang to express his opinion.
It's just a pity that Ran Fang is not prepared to express his approval of this matter.
He had already guessed what Ying Zheng was thinking. Ying Zheng probably wanted Fusu to handle the matter. After all, if the people of Baiyue wanted to turn their hearts to Da Qin, Fusu would be the best explanation for the problem.
You can also look at Xiang Yu's attitude towards Da Qin. Fusu is always smarter than Hu Hai.
But judging from Fusu's performance, Fusu was absolutely unwilling to do this, otherwise he wouldn't have pushed Hu Hai out to block the incident.
Moreover, Fusu has already done this, which means that he also knows Ying Zheng's idea.
Now that things have been laid out clearly, why would he want to get involved?
Isn’t that asking for trouble?
"This matter... is all decided by His Majesty."
"I don't know what your Majesty is thinking, but there must be a solution."
The last sentence he said was to Fusu, hoping that he wouldn't have too high hopes, otherwise it would just embarrass himself.
Fusu also heard it, but he still didn't say a word. He just said a few words to Ran Fang and left.
At this time, Hu Hai, who was discussing matters with Feng Quji, couldn't help sneezing several times in succession and shivering. He felt an ominous premonition.
