~3 min read 445 words

Qin Mu smiled and shook his head...

"Xin Qiji, you need to be clear, what were you doing in the past?

Does it require you to get involved in cooperating with the clans to hollow out the Great Tang?"

Xin Qiji was also a great general, and he had heard rumors about many things.

He knew that the Embroidered Uniform Guard had quite a lot of cooperation with the powerful clans in Jiangnan.

It was because of this that he could not judge whether he should cooperate with the clans or not?

Now, listening to the Emperor's meaning, he should not cooperate?

Why?

"Your Majesty, I do not quite understand, cooperating with the clans to swallow up the Great Tang imperial court's fiscal revenue..." Qin Mu did not blame Xin Qiji for being dull.

"It is clearly a matter beneficial to our Great Qin!"

That he could ask this also showed his loyalty to Great Qin.

Only a responsible official would ask such a question.

"General Xin, tell me, regarding the porcelain firing matter, how can you cooperate with the clans?"

Xin Qiji had had some assumptions on the way here.

At this moment, he said them without hesitation.

"The clans have huge influence in Jiangnan. The manual labor used, as well as transportation and land, can all be cooperated with the clans to reduce our costs." It is truly hard for a military general like him to ponder so meticulously.

Xin Qiji is actually not a pure military general; his literary attainments are also extremely high.

He belongs to the all-around talented in both civil and military affairs!

Qin Mu smiled and pointed his finger twice.

"You, don't you know how to think more deeply?

If these seemingly basic things with low profit are all controlled by the clans.

What benefit is there for you?"

Xin Qiji was terrified.

He immediately realized where his problem lay.

"Your Majesty, I am dull and did not think of it beforehand.

If all of these are handed over to the clans, the porcelain kilns in Changnanzhen will become a trapped isolated island!"

At least he was still a military general and knew the danger of being trapped in a desperate situation.

All of a sudden, he understood the Emperor's intention.

"Your Majesty, I understand. I must not only manage the porcelain kilns but also take the opportunity to use the management of transportation and the hiring of manual labor to plant nails inside the Great Tang!"

That's right!

This is the true intention of sending this great general to handle the porcelain kilns!

Otherwise, why must a great general be sent to do such a small thing?
