Reborn as Murong Fu: This time I am the protagonist

Chapter 101 The Return
Seven days later, Gusu, Shenhezhuang.

When Murong Fu returned, he didn't take the water, but used lightness kung fu all the way to hurry, so the time spent on the return journey was directly reduced by half.And Su Xinghe carefully selected the dumb servants for him, and asked them to follow behind.Anyway, with the loyalty of these people, it is impossible to sneak away halfway. If that is the case, there is no need to keep these people.Letting them follow by themselves is a small test of their loyalty.

All kinds of things that happened along the way made Murong Fu feel that the time of relying on foresight to dawdle is probably gone forever.What will happen in the future, he does not know.What is worthy of congratulations is that my current martial arts are enough to protect myself, and I no longer have to look forward and backward, and be timid.

The reason why he rushed back in a hurry was very simple. There were still two prisoners in the house!
I can never learn from Linghu Chong or Dongfang Bubai, and lock people in the water prison of West Lake.Although there is a group of experts in the house to help watch, there is no trouble, but if it is delayed for one more day, it will be a day of trouble after all.In order to avoid long nights and dreams, it is better to throw these two hot potatoes to others.

Before leaving, he made an agreement with Wu Yazi that he would take Wang Yuyan to Leigu Mountain half a year later, so that the grandpa and grandson could meet.And in the past six months, I have completely practiced all 36 meridians of the Beiming Divine Art. At that time, Wu Yazi will teach him the profound method of the Beiming Divine Art.

Seeing Murong come back, Abi and Azhu were very happy.And Murong Fu's deduction because of Murong Bo's killing of Ke Baisui, now he has developed a certain degree of wariness towards the two maids, and he just dealt with their enthusiasm in a non-salty way.

"My lord, you told your subordinates to purchase minerals before, and your subordinates have already done it."

In the hall, Deng Baichuan was explaining the affairs of this period to Murong Fu.

Murong Fu glanced at Deng Baichuan approvingly: I have to say that although Deng Baichuan is not easy to control, he is still very agile in handling things.This kind of person is a person like Cao Cao. If everything is peaceful, he will be Xiao He and Cao Shen. If the building is about to collapse, he will not mind giving you a hard push.How to use it all depends on how capable he is as the current head of the Murong family.

"What is the specific situation?"

So Deng Baichuan told the specific situation one by one.After hearing this, Murong Fu immediately understood that what Deng Baichuan took over was a coal mine.

Coal, which is coal in the popular sense, is just that there is no anthracite process in this era, and there is no sulfur added in it.

The mine is located in Xunwu, and the scale is small, only employing dozens of people.

If so, it would not be possible for Deng Baichuan to take it down. After all, in this era, heating supplies such as coal and charcoal are basically luxury goods.The price of a catty of good quality charcoal can be sold for six Wen, which is equivalent to two catties of brown rice.Ordinarily, most of them are profitable.But the problem is that this is the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area, and the winter is actually not that cold.Although people in later generations often make jokes about the winter in the south, for the poor in this era, it will pass after a while.

And what about the rich?People cherish their lives so much that they would rather spend more money to buy high-quality charcoal than use highly toxic coal.So carbon is in an embarrassing situation in the south.

Therefore, in order to sell well, the charcoal can only be transported to the Bianjing area.This can be very profitable. However, if you want to think of Bianjing, the most efficient and low-cost way is water transportation.However, in order to ensure the transportation of grain, only official ships can be used on the Bian River. Other ships need to pay a large toll if they go.

As a result, the mine owner had no choice but to give up.

Deng Baichuan didn't want to eat such a chicken rib at first, but he thought that Murong Fu's move might be planning for the Murong family's great cause of restoring the country - after all, charcoal can also be used for forging weapons, although the cost is much higher than firewood.

Murong Fu didn't think about these things.

The famous anti-Japanese general in history, Qi Jiguang, based on the miners, established his Qi's army, which was famous for future generations and made the Japanese pirates fearful.

First, miners are no better than sharecroppers.In this era, an army composed of yeoman farmers may collapse at the moment of contact with the enemy.But a team of miners can maintain good coordination and show a stronger will to fight.

As for why there must be such a force?Think about Zhujiazhuang who was borrowed from Liangshan and you will understand
Murong's family owns [-] hectares of land alone, so many people are thinking about such a family property.Otherwise, do you think that Shaolin monks practice martial arts just to strengthen their bodies?
No matter what the future plans are, you must have a piece of your own strength in your hand to feel at ease.Calculating the time, Fang La should still be a child now.But it is not guaranteed that a mediocre official like Zhu Xi will not come to Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the future and cause a mess. It is always good to plan ahead.

Murong Fu was very satisfied with Deng Baichuan's performance, and let him go down after a few orders.

Then he called Brother Yi Dabiao.The two of them are still dressed in the same simple way before, and they haven't changed their true colors at all because of the generous treatment given by Murong's family, which Murong Fu appreciates very much.

"My lord, the 120 and eight members of Xiang Wanghai's department have all been dismissed according to the lord's order. The stolen goods accumulated during his rampage in Chuzhou have been notified to the local government for acceptance as ordered. Into the treasury."

Yi Dabiao respectfully reported to Murong Fuhui.

Beside the two of them stood the former captain of the ship, Wang Jinbao, and it was with him that he was able to deal with such a mess.

Murong Fu nodded: "You guys did a great job, next, listen, it's a reward for you."

"Yi Dabiao, Yi Dayong!"

"Subordinates are here!"

He looked at the iron chains around the two of them, and said slowly: "The 'Spirit Snake Whip' that you two have practiced, and the advanced 'White Python Whip' in Shishui Pavilion, you two can find it." The bags are different, let him take you to pick them up."

The two were overjoyed.This reward is much more valuable than gold and silver treasures for Jianghu warriors.The two of them have good talents, but due to various reasons, they cannot practice the secret books of advanced exercises.This gift from Murong Fu will definitely bring their martial arts to a higher level.

The two knelt down and said: "My subordinates respectfully thank you for the gift, and I will be smashed to pieces for you in the future, and I will die!"

Then, the two happily went down to find Bao BuTong.

Then Murong Fu looked at the boss of the boat, Wang Jinbao.Just as he was thinking about how to reward him, he saw the other party looking around mysteriously, and after confirming that Yi Dabiao and the two had gone far away, he walked up to Murong Fu, took out a handful of things from his arms, and presented them to Murong Fu as if they were offering treasures complex.

Murong Fu took a closer look, it turned out to be a bunch of bank notes, each of 100 taels.

Murong Fu was slightly startled: "Wang Guanshi, what does this mean?"

Wang Jinbao smiled: "Young master, you asked me to pay the property of the Haisha Gang earlier. I only handed over part of it to the government. There is still [-] taels left. I have changed it into bank notes and it is here."

As if he was afraid that Murong Fu would blame him, he hastily added: "My lord, I am thinking for our Murong family. You handed over the money to the gang of corrupt officials in the government. In the end, it is not easy for them. The money is in your hands Only in this way can it play its due role! You are too kind-hearted to reward people at every turn, how can this be done. There will be many places where you can use your money in the future!"

He was spitting all over the place and dancing with his arms and legs, all with the expression of an old lady.

Murong Fu couldn't laugh or cry, what kind of treasure did he bring back?
