Ma Shaoguang went out of Zhu's mansion and returned to his home to find Ma Jiyuan. Ma Jiyuan was preparing to go to Leizhou's mansion at home. Ma Jiyuan was in charge of finance for a long time and naturally knew the importance of money. The main task given to Zhu Hongsan this time was to get money.

These prefects who Zhu Hongsan have all played an important role. Feng Ziyong is mainly commercial in Guangzhou. Guangzhou has been the economic center of Southern China for hundreds of years. This place has a large population and a developed commerce. It is also the location of Zhu Hongsan's future administrative center.

Tong Yangjia’s Qiongzhou Prefecture is the raw material base. Isn’t it said that the blood of industry is steel? So the iron ore is handed over to Tong Yangjia, who is familiar with industry.

The second raw material base is Yong'an Prefecture. This place is very close to the Hongji Coal Mine in Halong Bay. The straight line distance is only more than 200 miles. The sea boat can run back and forth in three days.

If Zhu Hongsan hadn't been able to do the navy now, he would have planned to build the base directly to Xialong Bay. But now there is no population and there is no infrastructure, so he can't choose Yong'an Prefecture, which is the Fangchenggang, Guangxi in later generations.

As for Leizhou Prefecture, this place is rich in sugarcane. In the early Ming Dynasty, locals made local sugar. In addition, Xuwen County, Leizhou Prefecture, is one of the four major salt fields in China, so Zhu Hongsan handed over his sugar manufacturing method to Ma Jiyuan and asked him to go to Leizhou to get money.

Zhaoqing has always been the grain production site in Guangdong. The Xijiang River turned a big turn from Zhaoqing, forming a vast river valley plain. Zhu Hongsan was preparing to build a mulberry fish pond here. Now, due to the increasing export volume of raw silk in Guangdong, farmers have already started to spontaneously build some mulberry fish ponds. Zhu Hongsan* went to see it. They made it different from the mulberry fish ponds that have developed over hundreds of years in later generations, and are still in the exploration stage.

Therefore, Zhu Hongsan's task for Xu Dali was to place more refugees and let them build mature mulberry fish ponds on a large scale on the river valley plain washed out by the Xijiang River, and at the same time let Xu Dali see if he could create the big artifact of hybrid rice.

So in the past few days, several preparatory prefects have been preparing plans, itineraries and personnel at home. Ma Jiyuan saw his son coming to him in a hurry and frowned and said, "Shaoguang, you are thirty years old this year, why are you still so unstable? Your Highness the King of Chu recommends that you be an official, you should be an official."

Ma Shaoguang bowed quickly and said, "What my father taught me is that, but my son has really important things to notify his father today."

Ma Jiyuan said, "Tell me, let me see what makes you so anxious."

Ma Shaoguang said, "Father, I saw Fu Wenlong and Fu appear in the palace. I wanted to ask Fu, why didn't he go to Nanzhili and run to the King of Chu. But before I could speak, Fu scolded me, and said he wanted to cut off his robe and break up with your father."

Ma Jiyuan frowned. It is true that he and Fu Wenlong were in the same year, but their relationship was average. Fu Wenlong and Huang Daozhou belonged to the Qing school and looked down on him very much. However, something must have happened to make Fu Wenlong say the meaning of cutting the robe and cutting off the throne.

Ma Jiyuan said, "Take me to take a look."

Ma Jiyuan and his son hurried to Zhu's mansion to see Fu Wenlong.

Now Fu Wenlong is detained alone in Zhu's mansion and is not with his family, because Zhu Hongsan judges others by himself, and is afraid that Fu Wenlong will run away.

Ma Jiyuan entered the room and saw Fu Wenlong lying on the bed, looking at Fang Liang with his eyes blank, and asked, "Yu Cai, why have you arrived at the King of Chu? Haven't you gone to Nanzhili?"

Fu Wenlong saw Ma Jiyuan enter the door, and this time he found the person who got angry. He jumped up on the bed and shouted: "Okay, Ma Jiyuan, did you make this unethical idea wrong for your King of Chu?"

Ma Jiyuanzhao was stunned and asked, "What's the idea?"

Fu Wenlong recounted the damage that Zhu Hongsan used in the afternoon to Ma Jiyuan.

Ma Jiyuan understood as soon as he heard this, and this kind of unethical idea must have been Zhu Hongsan's work. He hurriedly said to Wenlong: "Yucai, you and I, Ma Jiyuan, have little friendship, but don't you know how I, Ma Jiyuan, are like me?"

Fu Wenlong thought about it and the same reason was true. Ma Jiyuan had absolutely no problem with morality. It seems that it was King Chu, not a thing.

Ma Jiyuan continued, "Yucai is waiting, I will go to find the King of Chu and let him let you go."

Fu Wenlong shook his head and said, "It's too late. The King of Chu has killed the 200 escorted officials. Now if I release it, I will leak the news. With the King of Chu's personality, he will also send people to kill my whole family later."

Ma Jiyuan didn't expect that Fu Wenlong had a deep understanding of Zhu Hongsan. Since he didn't leave, he would be comforted.

Ma Jiyuan said: "Yucai, although His Highness of the King of Chu is more harsh, he is still good for us."

Fu Wenlong gave Ma Jiyuan a blank look and said, "Of course it's good to you. Do you know what he asked me to stay for me for? He is the master of your baby son, afraid that he will be bullied if he doesn't understand business when he goes to the place."

Unexpectedly, the King of Chu was not bad to him. After hearing this, Ma Jiyuan felt warm and said, "Yucai, you are going back to Nanzhili. Didn't you find that Nanzhili is now in dire straits?"

Fu Wenlong thought to himself: "Of course I know that Youping (Huang Daozhou's word) is to let me go back and strengthen the power of Qingliu in the morning." But this cannot be said to Ma Jiyuan, who is in a similar relationship.

Ma Jiyuan continued: "Now there is only half of the country, and the people of the imperial court are still so disunited. I think Yucai should not go to this muddy water. Isn't it great to benefit the people in Guangdong?"

Fu Wenlong thought of Huang Daozhou saying to him that the eunuch party in the capital had already caused a storm of the case, and a large number of officials from the Donglin faction were imprisoned, and he was afraid that there would be no good results when he went back.

Thinking of this, Fu Wenlong sighed and said, "Now the eunuch party in Beijing has begun to counterattack, and the place will not be peaceful for long."

Ma Jiyuan said from the side: "Yucai should not be so pessimistic. There is a King of Chu in Guangdong now, and the King of Chu is close to His Majesty today. Can he watch his own people be framed? So Brother Yucai is waiting and watching the King of Chu for three years before talking about what will happen in the future."

Fu Wenlong thought for a long time, and he admitted that what Ma Jiyuan said was the best result. Anyway, he was forced to agree to help the King of Chu for three years, so he had an explanation to Huang Daozhou in Nanzhili. In fact, Fu Wenlong didn't like to go to Nanzhili to wade into the muddy waters, but his close friends asked him for help.

Fu Wenlong sighed and said, "Okay, then I'll be your son's third-year master. Bo Yu, bring me paper and pen, and I'll write a letter to Huang Youping."

Ma Jiyuan was overjoyed and quickly arranged for Ma Shaoguang to serve Fu Wenlong to write a letter. Ma Shaoguang, who was the master, wanted to serve the master to write a letter, which was a strange thing.

Ma Jiyuan watched Fu Wenlong finish writing the letter and happily took it to Zhu Hongsan.

Zhu Hongsan looked at it for a long time and asked, "Sir, what did Fu Wenlong write?"

Ma Jiyuan forgot that Zhu Hongsan was dissatisfied and quickly explained: "Lord, Yucai told Huang Youping that I would entrust my son to him to take care of him. He was unable to refuse his affection. He promised me to help Bo Yu for three years and go to Nanzhili in three years."

Zhu Hongsan asked, "Didn't you say anything about this king coercing him?"

Ma Jiyuan was so angry that he said, "Yu is the one who values ​​promises and keeps his promises. He said that staying to help is just to help, and he will never reveal any other things."

Zhu Hongsan curled his lips, disagreed in his heart. Are you guys who are so stupid as to do little?

Ma Jiyuan said from the side: "Lord, since Fu Yu agreed to stay, will he just let him go in Yong'anzhou? Bo Yu has no experience after all."

Zhu Hongsan thought for a while and said, "This Fu Wenlong was originally a fourth-rank prefect, so he couldn't be happy to ask him to sit in a fifth-rank prefect. On the surface, Bo Yu was the main one, but it would be nice to let Fu Wenlong make up his ideas in secret."

Ma Jiyuan thought about it and said that this was not only good. It not only protected Fu Wenlong's face, but also guaranteed his son's official position. It was very good.

Zhu Hongsan said: "Tomorrow the Governor will go to Zhaoqing to take office. I and he planned to meet our people tomorrow morning. We can take office after the incident. There is no need to go to Zhaoqing with him. We will not be able to come back in half a month."

Ma Jiyuan said after hearing this, "Then I will go back and prepare, and I will set off tomorrow."

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "The eldest brother will inform Fu Wenlong about it. Don't take your family, just go there by yourself."
