Sheng Fu

Chapter 389

Lingyun Mountains.

At the foot of the mountain, Zhang Benchu's parents were extremely excited. Seeing their son again, they felt warm in their hearts. They thought they would never see their son again in their lifetime.

Zhang Benchu ​​said with a soft smile: "It's okay, I surprised my mother."

Mother Zhang wiped her tears and said with a smile: "This is nothing, compared to you, it's just a small storm."

The father also laughed heartily at the side, "I knew that we would turn danger into good luck."

Seeing this, Chengcai's parents also burst into tears.

Although it was a false alarm, these people were frightened for a long time.

How could they have thought that it was the prince from the Spirit Race who attacked them.

Even when Zhang Benchu ​​thought of this aspect, he felt scared for a while.

In the eyes of such people, their parents, as well as their young talents, may really be no different from the ants on the ground.

Zhang Benchu ​​said briefly: "Mr. Yuwen is busy with government affairs, so he left first. We don't need to return to Zhangjiacun, just follow me to Hengchangzong. There is a magnificent courtyard there, and our safety will no longer be a problem there."

"Now the world has changed, and many things are different from before."

The parents glanced at the old village head. For the parents, the old village head is the real leader. They have been together and supported each other day and night for so many years, just like Zhang Benchu's trust in Yu Wenjun.

Moving, leaving the hometown, going to an unknown place, although there are beautiful clothes and a magnificent courtyard there, it is not my home after all.

They have a very clear understanding of themselves. They are very ordinary people who don't know much about learning or martial arts. After going to Hengchangzong, they will inevitably be a burden for Zhang Benchu.

And, deep down in my heart, I feel inferior to my own identity.

The parents of other people's families are always well-versed in both civil and military affairs, full of economics, and understand many major principles, but they themselves don't understand anything.

Some parents will always think more about their children, if they can not cause trouble, they will not cause trouble.

The old village head looked at Zhang Benchu ​​very seriously, and said, "Many people from my hometown have gone to the city. If we leave again, there will really be no one in the village, and the crops will be completely barren."

"I really can't bear it."

Zhang Benchu ​​poured a cup of tea for the old village head, and offered it with both hands, and said patiently: "For the time being, we will live in Hengchangzong, and when the world is peaceful in the future, we will return to live in our hometown."

"This time I'm not by your side, and I'm almost separated from yin and yang. I'm more and more afraid of this matter."

The old village chief frowned deeply. Moving house is always a big deal for the older generation.

He stroked his gray beard, and asked with slightly moist eyes: "We're going, isn't it really troublesome?"

"Young Master Yuwen, you shouldn't dislike us, right?"

Zhang Benchu ​​suddenly felt very worried, and Chengcai beside him felt a dull pain in his heart. They had never seen the big world, and when they encountered such things, they were always unsteady and had many worries.

It's really not easy for poor people.

Zhang Benchu ​​suppressed the sadness in his heart, and said with a gentle smile: "No, now I am the number one general of Hengchangzong, and it is not too much to have my own general's mansion."

"Young Master Yuwen treats me like a brother, and will treat you well."

"Just don't worry, the young master is not that kind of person. If the young master is that kind of person, I probably won't be able to achieve the success I have today."

Chengcai nodded slightly at the side, how promising Zhang Benchu ​​is, Chengcai saw it with his own eyes beside the corn field, and now Chengcai has some small promises of his own, in the early days of Chuguang, if he joins the army, although he can't get a job as an official , but there is always a decent armor to wear on the body.

The old village chief nodded meaningfully, thoughtful, his eyes full of the heaviness of the vicissitudes of life.

He knows some superficial knowledge, and the most important thing to be a human being is to do one's own duty well, and don't get involved in things that are not your own.

Seeing the old village chief's sad face, Zhang Benchu ​​didn't know how to comfort him. From the very beginning, he was a family of poor people, and the knowledge he came into contact with was all the knowledge of foolish people.

Thinking of this, Zhang Benchu's heart ached even more.

The parents on the side were also waiting for the old village chief's decision.

After a while, the old village chief's eyes revealed a sense of clarity, and he said, "Let's go, we live in our hometown, and we were always afraid at first, but after we go there, safety will never be a problem."

"But after we go there, we must do our part well. We can't treat our neighbors badly just because we are the original family members. We were what we were before, and we have to be what we are after we go there. "

"Don't be arrogant and arrogant, relying on the backing of your original self to bully others."

Zhang Benchu's parents and Chengcai's parents nodded solemnly. It is wrong to bully people no matter where they are.

"That's okay, Chengcai and I are quick on our feet. We will go to the nearby county to buy a carriage first. You guys will wait here now. When the time comes, we will go south in the carriage and enjoy the scenery along the way. It will be a good thing."

The old village chief smiled from ear to ear, and his parents' eyes were full of relief.

They have been in the countryside of Nanjun all their lives, all in Zhangjia Village, and have never seen the world. Their understanding of this world is still largely based on the stories of those storytellers in the past.

Zhang Benchu ​​walked lightly against the wind, Chengcai sprinted on the ground, the two brothers were one in the sky and the other in the ground, today's Chengcai smiled very happily.

"Actually, to tell you the truth, we have all discussed it. If we become your burden at that time, we will bite our tongues and kill ourselves. If you don't cause trouble, Zhangjiacun has a capable person like you. We must pass on the incense. go down."

"Fortunately, things are not as bad as we imagined." Cheng Cai said these things with a smile.

Zhang Benchu ​​turned around and replied: "Of course we will turn danger into good luck, because we are good people."

Chengcai laughed out loud.

Zhang Benchu ​​turned his head and burst into tears.

……

……

After several days in succession, the assessment of the cabinet was over. Wen Yu, Liu Chun, Duan Ping and others returned to Hengchangzong for the time being. The specific results have not yet come out. Although the waiting days are exhausting, the content of the assessment this time is even more serious. Boil people, so these literati are not so heavy on their hearts.

Even if you can't join the cabinet, you can do many things.

Hengchangzong was at the time when he was employing people, and those who could not enter the cabinet would still have many opportunities to make contributions in the future.

Thinking of this, the big guy felt a little lighter.

These ten people came to Wenchang Pavilion, brewed tea and discussed Taoism with Mr. Feng Yuanqiu, discussed knowledge, and occasionally had high-spirited talks, involving certain knowledge, and disputes would arise. The old man sat in a high position and laughed at this. language.

These people have become talents, but they still retain the original intention of their school days, which is not easy.

As for the things that literati look down on each other, the old man just laughed it off, there is no way, there is no first in literature, it has been like this since ancient times.

As long as it doesn't involve too sensitive matters, Yu Wenjun and Feng Yuanqiu will turn a blind eye to the literati.

Of course, compared to these, a major event happened today.

The emperor personally issued an order to open the southern border fortress. Xu Huanshan led [-] euphorbia warriors to the southern border in person to participate in the grand event with a certain hall master of the Yixi sect. The two clans officially started communication.

Today, a large number of human business travelers will enter the land of the spirit race, and there will also be a large number of human race business travelers coming to the human world.

It is the first time to start communication, so naturally there must be one or two things that can be put on the table.

Therefore, Tai Shiping, the governor of Nanhua State at the border with the Spirit Race, has become the focus of attention of countless bigwigs. In the past, Tai Shiping's position above the officialdom was rather embarrassing. Although he was the governor of a state, he was more like a county magistrate. Moreover, there are no rivers, rivers, rivers, and seas in Nanhua Prefecture, so there is no aquatic products. Because the terrain is too remote, the land is mostly sloped, and the food production will never increase.

The geography is remote, and merchants are reluctant to flock to Nanhua State, and the scenic spot is only a spiritual bridge, which attracts many rangers and literati tourists. Rangers usually do not have money bags, and they can make ends meet. The situation of literati is different, but most of the literati who travel to Nanhua Prefecture are also the type of literati who are shy

Nanhua State suffers from serious financial deficits all year round, all relying on state treasury relief, and the southern family will also generously donate money.

Although it won't starve to death, it still depends on other people's faces to eat.

Tai Shiping, the governor, has never been able to raise his head to be a man. Let alone the descendants of Mengyin, if the monthly salary arrives on time, it is considered a high incense.

It is said that he is the governor of a state, but in terms of official status, he is really inferior to Hezhou, and Lang Fengzhou is a county governor at will.

After today, Nanhua State will no longer be the barren and backward Nanhua State in the past. As a necessary place between the two ethnic groups, not to mention large-scale trade exchanges, there are countless small and large trade exchanges. Not to mention being angry, but it was enough to make Tai Shiping, the governor, stand up straight.

Finance and taxation are only second, and the most important thing is many trade transactions. The first procedure has to be approved by Tai Shiping, which not only secures the position of governor, but also has the power of life and death.

Wang Changsheng, who had caused trouble for Yu Wenjun in the past, wanted to betroth his own granddaughter to Tai Shiping's son, and his intentions were clearly revealed.

There is nothing better than this.

But looking at it now, Taishi Pingzhen is just like his name, he will definitely be flat for a while, and if there is a slight change, he will be mobilized and attacked.

In today's land of the human race, the most valuable governor, the governor of Nanhua Prefecture must be on the list.

Hengchang Hall.

On the tea table, Yu Wenjun and Jing Peiyao sat across from each other, one drinking scented tea and the other drinking Longquan clear water.

Jing Peiyao said with a calm expression: "Information from Panlong, the two clans officially started communication, and in a few days, you will be able to eat the grapes of the Spirit Clan."

"In contrast, do you like grapes from the Spirit Race more, or do you prefer grapes from the Demon Realm?"

Yu Wenjun thought about it seriously, and said: "The flavors are different, but I prefer the grapes from the Demon Realm. Firstly, the grapes from the Demon Realm have a mellow taste, and secondly, our luck building is in the Demon Realm."

Jing Peiyao smiled softly and said, "Zhang Benchu ​​should be back soon, and he took his parents and family members on a trip. Speaking of which, neither you nor I have ever done this, and I feel a little regretful thinking about it."

Yu Wenjun raised his teacup and took a sip, then frowned slightly and said, "It's a pity, there will be opportunities in the future."

After this time, it will probably be a long time later.

Jing's father and Jing's mother have never had a decent long-distance travel.

Jing Peiyao changed the subject: "The governor of Nanhua Prefecture seems to have a close relationship with Wang Changsheng's family, and even the Ji family in the south. Although Senior Gu Yong did not offend Tai Shiping in the past, the situation has changed now. Can you guarantee that Tai Shiping will deliberately make things difficult for us?"

"Uncle Xie Yiming is a good talker, but when it comes to these matters, he, the southern leader, is not very good at speaking."

"Everyone knows that Tai Shiping now only recognizes His Majesty the Emperor as his master, and the leaders of the south probably don't take it to heart."

"Do some joints need to be tapped?"

"Our trade relationship is about to start."

Housekeeping is like this. Although things are small, you have to worry about them. And this is not a small thing, so you need to worry about it even more.

With regard to trade, Yu Wenjun is actually a bit stretched here. At present, the four cities of Henglong really don't have much to offer.

After the sudden change in the imperial capital, Murong Qiushui's business has also suffered a lot. The political dividends are gone, and many businessmen feel that Hengchangzong is standing on the opposite side of the emperor. In the future, dealing with Hengchangzong will definitely end not good.

Therefore, many shopping mall resources are gone.

The old foundation is still there, so this time, in the trade, I really have to count on sister Meng to support Hengchangzong a lot, put on a show, and indirectly buy people's hearts.

Yuwen Jundao: "I will go to Xie Yiming's place to say hello, as for privately, there is no need to interact with that proud governor."

"It's not good if the traces are too heavy, even if it's a business, you can't have too many traces."

"Yixi Sect controls many important industries of the Spirit Race. The most profitable thing is salt and iron. Let alone salt, iron is very important."

"Henglong Mountain is a place of good luck. There is actually a considerable iron mine in the mountains. After thinking about it, I don't plan to move that iron mine. Just keep Henglong Mountain as it was."

"We can only attract a large amount of pig iron through the Yixi sect, and then hand it over to Dijian Valley. The weapon business is destined to boom in recent years."

"As for the rest of the business dealings, I will leave it to Sister Qiushui to take care of it."

"Sister Meng will treat us badly if I think about it."

"Before the incident happened, we have already owed a favor, and we have to pay it back when we have the opportunity in the future."

Jing Peiyao nodded solemnly, the two are already husband and wife, husband and wife have to live a good life, they have to live in a decent manner.

It is no longer like in the past, to see who is upset, draw a sword and look around, or pick up a knife and slash.

Jing Peiyao suddenly said: "In the medicinal material business, you can also start trading with the Spirit Race. The profits are huge, and people who buy medicine will definitely not bargain."

When the wife said these words, her expression was very serious, like a little girl who planned to read books carefully.

Yu Wenjun smiled inexplicably: "This is also a serious idea."

Jing Peiyao continued: "The Guo family has innumerable medicinal materials, and so are the prescriptions."

"Speaking of which, people from the Guo family have to be the pioneers of the trade."

Yuwen Jundao: "I will go to the Demon Realm in a few days to see how their life and death are going."

Jing Peiyao nodded earnestly. Although she didn't pay much attention to money, the current Hengchangzong's finances are somewhat unspeakable. Building an army is the thing that burns the most money.

The cabinet assessment is over, and Yu Wenjun already has the answer in his heart, but Yu Wenjun doesn't intend to decide this matter alone, because of emotion and reason, he has to take care of it.

Next to the head of the cabinet, there must always be one or two people who are handy.

Jing Peiyao said: "The development of the silk industry is actually very good. I have been to Henglong Mountain. There are many golden silkworms and golden mulberry trees. The number is not bad, but the dispersion is a bit serious."

After Yu Wenjun heard about it, he felt in his heart that a woman would be better at living. He hadn't noticed any special products in Henglong Mountain before.

The price of golden silkworm silk is extremely high, which is quite a temptation for nobles.

Yu Wenjun replied with a smile: "Understood, my lady is really caring. After Jing Hanqing returns, let the cabinet implement these things."

"Let's have a few days of comfortable life first."

Jing Peiyao curled her lips and said: "Mother is right, you really like being a hands-off shopkeeper, this problem needs to be corrected..."
