Chapter 1720 Feng Ao Kuai’s Plan

Feng Ao Kuai had built his reputation on the battlefield.

He might not be very well known, but people knew that he was a stable person and not a hasty person. It was also with this in mind that Feng Ao Kuai chose to show his intelligence and stable side.

Because the Emperor needed a person who could be stable and smart enough to control the areas that previously belong to Zhang Xu Kingdom.

A reckless person was definitely a big no.

After conquering that area, what they needed was someone who could revitalize the business and many others that had been destroyed in war.

It also needed someone who was patient.

So Feng Ao Kuai was bidding his time while calculating other people's response. He was doing everything covertly and calmly because he believed in his own abilities that even if there was something wrong, he would be able to deal with it.

Old Master Nan looked at his grandson and sighed. "If my son is half as smart as you, I wouldn't need to worry so much."

Son?

Feng Ao Kuai raised his head and pursed his lips. He slowly said, "Sometimes, not only genes are important but also the way you are raised. People who are raised in the greenhouse will never be able to truly grow up."

He would not deny that he inherited the genes from the Nan Family and that it was thanks to this that he had the blessings of healthy body and smart mind. But without him being tempered to use his brain all the time, it was impossible for him to grow this much.

His family background is his foundation.

His talent is his rate of growth.

His hard work shows the end result of the combination of his foundation and talent.

If he didn't work hard, his talent would only be wasted and be buried forever without seeing the light. And without his family background, it was impossible for him to touch many things that normal people might not be able to touch in his entire life.

The feelings are mutual.

But they still interact when it was necessary.

"It's not very difficult. I just hope that Grandfather can let my cousin, Feng Mo Xing, to be arranged in the works department." Feng Ao Kuai smiled.

There were a total of six ministries in the palace, mainly the Personnel or Civil Appointments, Revenue, Rites, Defense, Justice, and Works who each have local ministries under them.

"Works department?" Old Master Nan was confused. The works department usually involved anything related to weights and measures, the construction and transportation, including the manufacturing and provision of equipment and also the use of natural resource.

But for the last thing where they required to hire artists or so on, it was usually temporary and the permanent ones fell on the ministry of personnel.

Even if the works sounded very busy and all, it was actually not a very good position.

"I have talked with him and I would like to ask for some projects to be done." Feng Ao Kuai thought about his talk with Nan Hua before. He was once confused why Nan Hua wanted to build road to Heng Xing City. But it was only after the road was build did he realize the advantage of it.

Now that he wanted to build his power, money is important, but it was important to be able to be in touch with these projects.

Even if he would not be able to be involved directly, he could give some suggestions through his cousins.

Old Master Nan arched his eyebrows. "Your cousin seems more like a tool man for me."

"The Emperor had already started to build the road and I think that there might be some good design that he would take interest in." Feng Ao Kuai smiled.

"Why are you not going forward on your own?"

"Because if I did, I won't be able to be assigned to the north west," Feng Ao Kuai replied with the tone as a matter of fact.

Old Master Nan: "..." you win.
