It's just that such a request is obviously not easy for Zhao Ping. In other words, it is not easy for anyone, even Lu Buwei. However, as a local snake in Handan, Zhao Ping has an unparalleled innate advantage in walking around the streets.
This is one of the reasons why Zhao Kuo ordered Zhao Ping to form this organization instead of Lu Buwei. Of course, what's more important is that with Lu Buwei's ability, if such an organization is in hand again, Zhao Kuo may be like a fish in water in the early stage, but if Zhao Kuo really becomes the king of Zhao, it may be Zhao Kuo's turn to have trouble sleeping.
Because, with such an easy-to-use blade, Zhao Kuo obviously would not let it stick to a mere Handan city.
Therefore, from this perspective, Zhao Ping, who was born in poverty and was promoted by Zhao Kuo, is undoubtedly the best candidate.
However, Zhao Ping, who heard this, did not know what Zhao Kuo was thinking. Hearing Zhao Kuo's request, he immediately began to ponder, with a rare look of embarrassment on his face. Obviously, Zhao Ping had some difficulties with Zhao Kuo's second mission.
Zhao Kuo did not urge him, but quietly waited for Zhao Ping's reply.
Zhao Kuo did not let Zhao Kuo wait for too long. After pondering for a while, Zhao Ping decided to tell the truth and said: "General, the so-called secret agents are low-level and can be organized. It just takes time to monitor Handan City." , Secondly, we need food and fodder, and thirdly, we are from a humble background, and even though we have the support and love of the general, it may be difficult for us to get in touch with people in the upper echelons, so..."
I have to say that Zhao Ping does have something up his sleeve. Zhao Kuo originally thought that he would have to teach Zhao Ping step by step how to set up an organization, but Zhao Ping seemed to be confident. From Zhao Ping's words, it was not difficult to see that Zhao Ping did have ideas and did know what Zhao Kuo wanted. Sure enough, there is still a bit of a gap between people who can serve as prison chiefs in Handan.
"It's a matter of time." Zhao Kuo was not impatient about this, and immediately solved the problems for Zhao Ping one by one: "I don't know that this is not a day's work. Don't worry, you will have enough time to build it. I only have one Requirement - confidentiality! This organization must not be exposed to outsiders."
"Yes, I understand." Zhao Ping immediately agreed.
"As for the issue of food and funds." Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "As long as it is a legitimate expenditure, just ask Lu Qing for it. However, although all accounts do not need to be handed over to Lu Qing, they still need to be made clear. I will do it at any time. Check. Of course, this is just a preliminary emergency response."
Obviously, it was not only Lu Buwei who was bombed, but also the wealth in Lu Buwei's name that was so rich that it could rival the country. Of course, as Zhao Kuo's general manager, the income of Shangdang County and Hanoi County will also be controlled and circulated in the hands of Lu Buwei.
"Yes, General, don't worry, but there is something wrong, begging to behead someone." Zhao Ping said immediately.
Zhao Kuo nodded, but did not comment, because Zhao Kuo knew very well that "if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the people are careful, there will be no disciples." It is impossible for such an important and huge organization to be free from corruption, and this has been true since ancient times. But as long as it was above the bottom line, Zhao Kuo had no intention of pursuing it. Of course, Zhao Ping's attitude is still worthy of encouragement.
"As for this last point." Zhao Kuo pondered for a moment, and then continued: "First, the so-called wind rises and the grass falls. The news can't be obtained only from the mouths of high-ranking officials. People under his sect can even more. Become a leaker; secondly, today's prison leader Ping cannot sit with the high officials, but tomorrow's Zhao Ping may not be able to do so. Do you understand?"
Zhao Ping nodded slightly as if he didn't understand, and then suddenly reacted and said immediately: "I would like to be taught. Thank you, General, for your advice."
That's right, Zhao Kuo is not only trying to find a solution for Zhao Ping, but also promising Zhao Ping a future, well, or to put it another way, it's called - painting cakes! It's just that Zhao Kuo is ready to give this cake as long as Zhao Ping can complete his task without making any mistakes.
"I have high hopes for you!" Zhao Kuo looked at Zhao Ping with burning eyes.
At this point, Zhao Ping still didn't know that Zhao Kuo was really cultivating him in the direction of his confidants. He immediately didn't have any ambiguity. He took a deep breath, clasped his fists and replied: "I will definitely live up to the general's high expectations." .”
Seeing this, Zhao Kuo also nodded with satisfaction.
Then he said: "Go, wait until the sunset, and go to Pingyuan Lord's mansion."
"Yes." Zhao Ping replied, and then turned around and left.
But just when Zhao Kuo was about to rest in the meeting room, Zhao Ping stopped, turned around and saluted Zhao Kuo.
"What else is there?" Zhao Kuo asked.
"Report to the General: In the afternoon, Zhuangzi came to report that a batch of supplies had arrived. However, the officers and men did not know their use and did not dare to specialize in them. I specifically asked the General for instructions. Since you are in the room with Mr. Lu, the visitor left a message. Then he turned back outside the city first." Zhao Ping said quickly.
Apparently, because happiness came so quickly, Zhao Ping almost forgot to report the matter. One noteworthy detail is that Zhao Ping's title for Lu Buwei has quietly changed from "Brother Lu" to "Master Lu". Zhao Ping, as the head of Tianlao, is obviously very proficient in observing words and emotions.
Fortunately, Zhao Kuo didn't seem to blame Zhao Ping. After all, it was his request to seal off the study, and after Lu Buwei left, Zhao Kuo didn't seem to give Zhao Ping a chance to report. Of course, the more important reason is that Zhao Kuo has been deeply attracted by the four words "Shangdang Materials".
Of course Zhao Kuo knew what this batch of supplies was. Not surprisingly, it was Zhao Kuo who ordered Zhao Wei to build the first batch of ordnance in Shangdang County.
If we talk about the Battle of Changping, Zhao Kuo relied on the historical knowledge of later generations to become famous in the first battle; then this batch of ordnance is the beginning of Zhao Kuo, a science student, showing the engineering skills of later generations, and it is also the trump card that Zhao Kuo will rely on for his future survival. one.
"It's time to teach the ancestors of this world a lesson." Zhao Kuo thought with some malice in his heart.
"It seems that your trip to Pingyuan Mansion has to be postponed." Zhao Kuo said softly: "Prepare two pieces of soldier's clothing. You and I can put them on immediately and leave the city immediately while the city gate is still open. "
"Yes. But, your body..." Zhao Ping was just ready to agree out of habit, but suddenly remembered that the general seemed to be still seriously injured.
"It's okay. It's just a flesh wound." Zhao Kuo didn't pay attention to this at all. Although it hurt when he was beaten and when he applied medicine, the bones were not injured after all. After a few days of treatment, they were all healed. It was scabbed, and such an injury was nothing compared to the arrow in the chest.
"Yes. Where is the old lady?" Zhao Ping asked again.
"Well, let me go and tell you. You quickly prepare your clothes and call a few more soldiers." Zhao Kuo continued to give instructions without hesitation.
"Yes. I'll go right away." Zhao Ping agreed again.
