Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 169: Meeting with Gongzi Gao and winning him over!

After returning home, Gao Yao simply changed his armor and put on a set of Qin noble clothing, then headed towards the post station. In fact, when Gao Yao became the Nanhai Wei, theoretically, he was already considered a member of the Qin noble class, but Gao Yao himself never dressed according to the requirements of such aristocratic clothing.

When Hu Hai was here, he always dressed like a general, mainly to avoid Zhao Tuo's attention, so as to prevent him from focusing on himself and to avoid the possibility of him cooperating with Yi Xiaochuan.

Lu Zhi had already prepared a lot of this kind of clothes for Gao Yao, but it was true that Gao Yao seldom wore them. He was not used to wearing them because they were too heavy.

When Gao Yao arrived at the post station, the servant of Master Gao was already standing at the door of the post station. Xiao He, who was following Gao Yao, took the initiative to step forward and started chatting with the servant. Xiao He now had his own official position, the chief clerk of Nanhai County. Although he was called Nanhai County, he actually managed all the affairs of the entire Nan County. He could be said to be the most important person under Gao Yao.

"General Gao Yao from Pingnan is here to visit you, please inform me."

"General, please wait"

Just by looking at the servant's reaction at the door, Gao Yao knew that Master Gao was waiting for him to come, so he had already informed the servant how to treat him.

After a while, a young man wearing noble clothes came out. Gao Yao was slightly surprised. He thought the other person must be Master Gao. However, Gao Yao did not expect that the other person would take the initiative to greet him. Gao Yao was somewhat flattered.

"I, Gao Yao, am here to see you, sir."

It would be inappropriate for Gao Yao to pretend not to see what the other person had done. As soon as the other person left the house, Gao Yao took the initiative to step forward and salute.

"General Gao Yao, I have always heard about you, but I only met you today. I feel a little ashamed."

"Sir, why do you say that? I am only working for the Qin State."

"please......"

"please......"

After a brief greeting, Gao Yao entered the post station at the invitation of Master Gao. Although it was Gao Yao who built the post station, whoever lived here was the owner, which was also the purpose of building the post station.

"General Gao Yao has invited me to the Southern Territory many times, so I spoke frankly. Before I came to the Southern Territory, I always thought that General Gao Yao was exaggerating. It was not until today when he really appeared in Nanjun that I realized that General Gao Yao is really an extraordinary person. It is really a pity that I cannot serve in the court."

The rest of the words may have some water, but these words are indeed not water. After entering the southern border, Gongzi Gao saw what it meant for the people to live and work in peace and contentment. In particular, although the construction of this county town is not as big as Xianyang, it gives people a pleasing feeling, or it can be said to be a very comfortable feeling.

The overall feeling is very orderly and well-organized. Especially in the past two days, under the leadership of Xiao He, after a brief understanding of the southern border, he was even more surprised. The city is specially divided into different areas, such as commercial, office, and residential areas. This will not give people a sense of chaos, but rather a very orderly feeling. Everything makes Gongzi Gao feel magical.

The most amazing thing is the harmonious coexistence between the Nanyue people and the Qin people in the city. Not to mention these foreign races, even the people of the other six countries conquered by the Qin could never achieve such a harmonious state with the Qin people. But Gao Yao did all these things. How could Gongzi Gao not be surprised?

"Sir, you are too kind. I don't deserve your exaggeration. This is all thanks to your majesty. Moreover, there are so many important officials in the court. How could it be my turn?"

"General Gao Yao, there is no need to be modest. Now that I have come to this, I will speak frankly. Why does General Gao Yao want to see me, and why must he meet me in the southern border?"

At this time, the compliments to each other ended, and the rest was to talk about business. Although Feng Quji was behind Gongzi Gao to help analyze the situation, Gongzi Gao himself was still very confused about the matter. After all, even if Gao really had some ideas, he had already rejected them in advance.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken him half a year to get to the Southern Territory. During this period, Gongzi Gao hadn't responded since the first contact, and people thought Gao had given up. But the fact was that Gao hadn't given up at all. Instead, every month someone would come to ask for a meeting, with gifts, invitations, and even using all kinds of means to find someone to tell about the situation in the Southern Territory.

Gongzi Gao was also moved by this persistence, so he had the idea of ​​coming to the southern border to take a look, but he was still very curious about this matter.

"Thank you for your trust, sir. But as I said before, I am only doing this for the sake of my Great Qin's future."

"Daqin's escape route?"

"Sir, you have been in Xianyang for a long time, have you ever really observed the world today?"

"this......"

"The world seems to be stable now, but in fact, there are undercurrents. Sir, do you know what the people in this world are actually like? Sir, have you seen the current planting conditions of the farmland with your own eyes?"

"Not to mention far away, just in the two counties of Minzhong and Jiujiang, do you know how many bandits there are? There are as many as 50,000. These are just the ones we can see, there are many more that we can't see."

"What, 50,000 bandits? That's impossible!"

After hearing the number Gao Yao said, Gongzi Gao immediately began to refute. There are more than 50,000 mountain bandits. How many soldiers does a county have? The least is a few thousand, and the most is tens of thousands. If there are 50,000 mountain bandits, wouldn't Minzhong and Jiujiang be in complete chaos long ago?

"Haha, Sir, do you think I need to tell such a lie?"

"This... I have never heard of it before."

Listening to Gao Yao's words, Gongzi Gao was slightly hesitant, and finally felt that Gao Yao really had no reason to deceive him. After all, it was completely unnecessary. Even if he wanted to elevate himself by belittling others, he would never choose such outrageous words. Wouldn't this just add to the ridicule? Moreover, Gao Yao was able to rise to prominence in the struggle with the Meng family. Even if Gongzi Gao was stupid, he knew that Gao Yao was definitely not a stupid person.

"Haha, Young Master, you want to ask, why doesn't His Majesty know?"

"Could it be that General Gao Yao meant..."

Hearing Gao Yao's suggestive words, Gongzi Gao was not a stupid person and immediately thought of the biggest possibility.
