Chapter 623    Each has its own plans (34)

Because the eldest, Ma Bochang and the second, Ma Zhongchang, were not studying and working as an official, they chose their favorite professions respectively.

Both of them worked hard and made great achievements, becoming the best in the industry, but they still don’t like their father Ma Zhou’s heart.

Back then, Ma Zhou, who was the patriarch, had the responsibility to train a qualified heir for the Ma family, that is, an official talent. This was a necessary condition for the survival of the aristocratic families and the guarantee for the Ma Zhou family to continue to serve as the patriarch.

But now that things have come to this point, Ma Zhou can only choose to raise other sons, which is better than the heirs of the patriarch to fall into the hands of other tribes.

If none of Ma Zhou's sons became officials and other tribesmen could become officials, no matter how low the rank was, the position of the heir of the tribe leader would not be the turn of the Ma Liang brothers.

Fortunately, Ma Zhou has five sons, the smart third son Ma Shuchang, who is also a good student.

Ma Zhou transferred all his expectations to Ma Shuchang.

In order for Ma Shuchang to get a job and become the legitimate heir of the Ma family's team leader, Ma Zhou personally guided Ma Shuchang to study, which was a great effort.

Who knew that the result still disappointed Ma Zhouda.

Between out of reach and money that is within reach, Uncle Ma quickly made a choice.

He was obsessed with doing business and took the initiative to give up the opportunity to study and become an official, which was equivalent to giving up the qualification of the heir of the patriarch.

Uncle Ma is a responsible person after all, and he does not blame others.

Although he had deep regrets about his failure to become an official, he did not continue to pursue his official position, but instead placed his hope of becoming an official on his son Ma Feng.

His son Ma Feng, two years older than Ma Liang's son, has been smart since childhood and has a very good demeanor when Uncle Ma Chang was young.

Uncle Ma is often not a wealthy slave, so he is willing to spend money, especially for his son.

His family has a very high standard of living, and Ma Feng is a little overnutrition, which is much taller than his peers.

The ancestor of the Ma family was "Ma Fujun", which can be said to be the descendant of the general, and he has many martial arts passed down from his family.

Ma Feng is tall and has a big horse, and is not lacking in strength. He is a good seedling for practicing martial arts.

At that time, Ma Zhou was still alive, and what he valued most was a talent with both civil and military affairs.

In order to win the favor of my grandfather, Uncle Ma often arranged for Ma Feng to practice his ancestral martial arts for a period of time.

At that time, the world was divided into three parts, and with Ma Zhou's eyes, it was naturally a good time for military generals to gain fame.

After Ma Feng became confused, his talent for studying was mediocre, and Uncle Ma was often very distressed.

Ma Zhou believes that if you can’t become a civil servant, if you have good martial arts skills, you can also consider being a military general.

But Ma Feng is Ma Shuchang's only son. His family has good financial conditions and has been spoiled since childhood. How can he endure the hardship of practicing martial arts?

The Ma Shuchang and his wife were not good at forcing their son to study and practice martial arts, but in order to get the attention of their grandfather Ma Zhou, they put a lot of effort into practicing martial arts.

Ma Feng was in trouble when he saw the book, and his interest in practicing martial arts was even higher. Although he could not put in hard work to train himself, he was better off because he was very strong. He barely mastered a set of flower guns and won the reputation of being a high-level martial arts in his family.

Ma Feng's martial arts skills are OK to fool his grandfather Ma Zhou. He really let him go to the battlefield without any eyes and no ability to protect himself.

Uncle Ma often earned a wealth of wealth for his son, and he didn't want his son to go to the battlefield and lose his life.

Uncle Ma often does not lack money, and passes on the family line and continues the incense. This is the true mission of his beloved son Ma Feng.

Seeing that Ma Feng was not successful in his literary style, Uncle Ma Chang had no choice but to continue working hard to become an official.

Although he had already hit a wall in Jiangdong, he still did not give up completely.

This time he went to Jiangdong and spent a lot of money to bribe Ji Yan in the name of his family, and he also had his own little thoughts.

On the surface, he wanted to make a name for the business of Gu Ma's family in Jiangdong. As the helmsman of the Ma's business, he had the power to use money to connect all parties regardless of costs.

But this is not his real purpose!

You should know that with the previous friendship between the Ma family and the major families in Jiangdong, you can just find a family to cooperate with.

The Lu family in Jiangdong, because the clan leader Lu Kang and Yuan Shu were in conflict with each other, and they had been in Lujiang for two years, causing heavy losses to the entire Lu family and have not recovered their vitality so far.

Because of the defeat of Liu Bei in the Battle of Yiling, Lu Xun rose strongly and conquered Jingzhou.

The Lu family's strength is in a steady upward momentum and is a good partner.

Moreover, Lu Xun once had a hint to the Ma family, but he was rejected by Uncle Ma.

With the relationship between the Ma brothers and the Zhuge brothers, Uncle Ma often asked Zhuge Jin to take care of Jiangdong's business, which should be the most reliable one.

Moreover, the cooperation between these families is mutually beneficial.

But Uncle Ma chose to spend a lot of money and found a shallow family foundation to choose Cao Shangshu Ji Yan to cooperate with him. Obviously, he still wanted to become an official in Jiangdong.

With Uncle Ma's ability to make money often, these expenses are nothing!

He and Ji Yan had reached an agreement, and Ji Yan got a huge amount of money. With his intelligence, he also saw through the real intention of Ma Shuchang and took the initiative to recommend Ma Shuchang as an official, which was equivalent to giving Ma Shuchang a peace of mind.

This time he dared to give most of the money from Jiangdong to Ji Yan because the Ma family is rich and his main reliance is the money from the warehouse of Yueshi County.

Before Ma often went to Jiangdong, he also took a special inventory of this warehouse, which was enough for him to develop Jiangdong's business.

It has only been more than two months since the warehouse has not only been stored, but there is not even a single person left behind.

The goods in this warehouse are worth the money he gave to Ji Yan, but they are all specialties of the Nanman tribe, so it is quite difficult to collect, and their importance is far above that money.

Uncle Ma often felt serious dissatisfied with Ma Su, who was in charge of the Ma family's armed forces.

The goods at Jiangdong shops have been sold out. Without the supplement of this batch of goods, Ma Shuchang's plan to reorganize Jiangdong industries is likely to fail.

Once the plan fails, the money he gave to Ji Yan is like wasted, and the entire Ma family's business will fall to a low point.

Even Ma Shuchang, who is in charge of the Ma family's financial power, cannot bear this responsibility!

Uncle Ma was anxious and fainted on the ground without breathing up.

The guards beside him hurriedly helped him to the bed and lay down, rescued him with all his might, and sent someone to ask the doctor quickly.

Fortunately, Uncle Ma is always healthy, and this time he fainted because of his fatigue and anxiety.

Only about ten breaths did Uncle Ma wake up.

After Uncle Ma Chang woke up, the first thing he did was to consider how to quickly replenish the goods and working capital of Jiangdong shops.

The Ma family is not as good as before. Although they are still rich in financial resources, most of the money is in the hands of individuals.

As the helmsman of family business, the family assets he could use, namely the money from Jiangdong shops and this warehouse.
