www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Young Master Fierce!
On the fifth day of the eleventh month of the tenth year of Xuan Li, Fu Xiaoguan and his party arrived at Ningsang City.
Seeing Sima Che again, she was much cleaner than when she was in Jinling. Her face was not as moist as before, and even her energy seemed a little sluggish, and she looked a little more haggard.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"...No," Sima Che withdrew his gaze from Fu Xiaoguan's face, lowered his head slightly, and his heart could not stop beating violently. She added very shyly: "It's just, it's just that something happened last night. It’s because of not sleeping all night.”
Fu Xiaoguan already knew about the fire at Hongye No. 1 Factory last night, "If you feel tired...actually, I suggest you resign from this official position."
"No!" This word was very firm. Sima Che raised his head and his eyes were very firm. "I feel that such a day is very fulfilling. The accident can be solved in no time, and the case will be solved soon."
The winter sun fell on her face, making it more bright and radiant.
In the backyard of the county government office, the two of them were drinking tea and talking about Ningsang City. Sima Che was mostly talking, and Fu Xiaoguan listened carefully with a smile on his face.
I have to say that this woman is really working hard to be a good official, and she is indeed a good official.
At least among the thirteen counties that Fu Xiaoguan has passed through so far, Sima Che is the most efficient magistrate he has ever seen.
The amount of funds introduced into Ningsang City far exceeds that of other counties. Of course, this is due to the large investment of the Sima family in Ningsang County.
But this is also her resource, so the credit will naturally fall on her head.
"In Hongyeji, there is no household responsibility system. The land there is mainly occupied by the Zhang clan. A few days ago, my father went to talk and wanted to buy the land. After all, the family's textile workshop is planned. Hongyeji will build more than ten buildings."
"Hongye Factory No. 1 has been put into operation, and the first batch of silk has been produced. Before it could be shipped out, it was burned by a fire. Hongye Factory No. 2 has been completed and looms are being installed. Hongye Factory No. 3 The foundation laying has been completed and it is expected to be completed and put into operation in March next year, but the land for the remaining factories has not yet been secured.”
Sima Che said a lot in one breath, with a bit of pride, a bit of disappointment, and a bit of grievance in his tone.
"The Zhang family won't sell it?"
Sima Che took a sip from the teacup, nodded, and glanced at Fu Xiaoguan rather resentfully, "According to your wishes... the government cannot force people to buy or sell."
This Zhang Pingju had some impression on Fu Xiaoguan's mind, as he seemed to have seen it at the Baisou Banquet.
He thought for a while, "Let's arrange a banquet tonight and invite the head of the Zhang family in my name..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Chongzhi, the county magistrate, walked in. He bowed to Fu Xiaoguan and said in a low voice: "Sir, Zhang Mansion sent an invitation to Ding Anbo and the county magistrate. A banquet was held at Zhang Mansion to welcome Ding Anbo."
Fu Xiaoguan was happy. He took the invitation, looked at it, and said with a smile, "Tell him that I will be at the banquet on time."
"Yes!"
Li Chongzhi retreated, but Sima Che frowned, "The fire last night was most likely caused by the Zhang family. This banquet may not be a good one!"
"Actually, I really hope it's a Hongmen Banquet!"
Sima Che was stunned, "What kind of banquet is the Hongmen Banquet?"
"Oh...that's right," Fu Xiaoguan scratched his head, "he just deliberately held a banquet, but his intention was not to banquet, but to kill people."
Sima Che suddenly became nervous, "No, you must not go! The Zhang family has more than 100,000 clan members in Hongyeji, and his Zhang family compound alone has 300 guardians. This Ningsang City's There are only about twenty police officers, how can we ensure your safety?"
"Don't worry, he's not that courageous."
"What if he dares to risk the disapproval of the world?"
Fu Xiaoguan was silent for a moment, "Then I'll ask you to watch the scene of the bloodbath in Zhang's courtyard!"
Sima Che didn't know where Fu Xiaoguan got the courage. Then she saw Fu Xiaoguan calling Ning Siyan and Zhuo Donglai over. After whispering, the two left the courtyard, while Xu Xinyan stayed.
"To capture the thief, capture the king first... Of course, if he doesn't move, I won't touch him. I'm just preparing a backup plan. Now that the New Year is coming, why don't you go back to Yingqiu?"
Sima Che was still worried about going to the banquet, but unexpectedly Fu Xiaoguan asked about the New Year.
"I won't go back this year. My father and brother are here, and my grandparents are on their way here..." Sima Che paused and then said, "My family bought a yard in Ningsang City. My brother has also bought a place in Wofeng City. The climate here is much better than that of Yingqiu. Grandpa intends to use Wofeng City as the new base camp of the Sima family. I am afraid that the next step will be to manage Wofeng Road. "
This relationship is good. At the house auction in Wofeng City, the five major families of the Yu Dynasty all bid and bought properties in Wofeng City. Combined with the funds they invested in Wofeng Road, they may have used Wofeng Road as a production site. base.
"When...will you return to Jinling?"
“I’ll go back after walking around, and I’ll leave around the end of November.”
"Oh...when will you come back?"
Fu Xiaoguan raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm afraid it won't be that fast."
Sima Che's face looked a little sad, thinking that he was still the minister of the Ministry of Commerce, and his three wives had all given birth, so he should stay in Aurous Hill longer.
Sima Che had no idea that Fu Xiaoguan was going to lead the Divine Sword Army to roam the land of the deserted people. Of course, Fu Xiaoguan didn't mention a word about it.
This is not to keep it secret. In fact, Fu Xiaoguan is going to hunt down the deserters, and he will deliberately spread the news.
"A few days ago, my father said that you are very likely to return to the Wu Dynasty, right?"
Fu Xiaoguan nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, I will probably stay in Yuchao... In one or two years, Wofeng Road will be on the right track, so don't worry about anything."
Sima Che pouted, she was not worried about Wo Fengdao's future.
"Then...I will be an official for another year or two."
Fu Xiaoguan was startled, and the meaning of these words became clear, "You have to think about it carefully."
Sima Che was immediately overjoyed, and she understood the meaning of these words, "I have already thought about it clearly, actually..." Sima Che pinched his sleeves, with a look of a little woman on his face, "Father is planning Another investment will be launched next spring."
"What investment?"
"Go to Wu Dynasty to build a factory. Ruoxi Prefecture and Jinghua Prefecture in the seven southern states of Wu Dynasty are also famous sericulture producing areas, but the weaving and embroidery technology of Wu Dynasty is not as advanced as that of Yu Dynasty. My father has guessed your intention and thinks you will welcome it. He went to Wu Dynasty, right?"
Fu Xiaoguan laughed. The fact that the Sima family could become one of the five major business families in the Yu Dynasty was due to their unique vision and thinking.
