Yang Wanli glanced at Fan Xian beside him and said, "Teacher, the Jiangnan matter is set. You shouldn't worry too much."
He said this very honestly and sincerely. The Yang Wanli of this moment had already gone through the ordeals on the riverbank for more than half a year, as well as the wrangling and shirking of the River Transport Governor's yamen. He had gradually come to understand the real meaning of being an official and the difficulty of the people.
As an official, to do things for the people and help the court required power and money in hand. Otherwise, it was impossible to achieve anything. Since Yang Wanli had Fan Xian as a support, no one in the Ministry of Works ordered him around. Although the River Transport Governor's yamen was a mess, he had the power to directly transfer money from the palace treasury. In this matter, no one could create obstacles for him.
