Chapter 90

Island Master Mao has been living a very relaxed life recently.

It has been eight years since he came to Phi Island. He thinks that he is doing a pretty good job. With his excellent running skills and his good bragging mouth, he has become very prosperous and has made Phi Island a prosperous business. A paradise.Over the years, he often went deep into the hinterland of the slave establishment, fighting guerrillas when he had nothing to do.By the way, some Liao people who fled because they could not bear the brutal rule of the slaves were taken care of, and there were [-] to [-] people in Guangdao.

Although there are not many golden soldiers killed, it can be modified tactically.And Mao Daozhu's repeated disturbances also caused Jiannu a lot of headaches. If you defend, they may not come, and if you don't defend, they will cause damage in your yard.He knows that he can't beat the Eight Banners soldiers, so he will attack your wife and children, which is disgusting to you.The reason why the owner of Mao Island is so casual is entirely thanks to Nurhachi's policy towards the Han people.

Nurhachi forced the Han people in Liaodong to migrate and live in centralized areas, which made it easier for him to rule.But this resulted in a large amount of fertile land in Liaodong being abandoned, and the Han people in Liaodong had no land to cultivate.

Agricultural production has been greatly damaged, leading to annual famines and soaring food prices.As a result, more people who could not survive began to resist and flee.As if this was not enough, Nurhachi also ordered the killing of people who had no food.He classified those who had food or livestock at home as people with food, and those who had less than six gold dou as people without food, and massacred all those without food.

Over the years, only 10,000+ Han people were killed out of the millions.

By the seventh year of Tianqi, the price of food had soared to eight taels of silver per dou.

As a result, the owners of Mao Island had the mass base to fight guerrillas.

It may not be appropriate to say that Island Master Mao is a general who is good at fighting.But when it comes to making money, he has many methods.

He's good at business.Phi Island has an advantageous geographical location and is the only place that Northland maritime merchants must pass through for smuggling to Japan from Denglai via North Korea. He got stuck here and asked for money.Most of the food that island residents eat comes from these northern maritime merchants.

Occasionally, he would wander around the Jiannu territory, lie about his military exploits, and ask for money from the court.Just give if you give, there is nothing to lose if you don’t give.

In order to get money, he even tricked Huang Taiji into negotiating peace and sent the envoy directly to the capital to be rewarded.

Ordinarily, if he continues to live like this, Island Master Mao will most likely die a good death, but it may not be certain.But his old enemy appears.

Governor Yuan.

The loyalty and treachery of these two people have been debated for hundreds of years, but there is no reason for it.

But it is a fact that Governor Yuan should not kill the owner of Mao Island, because it does not comply with the procedures at all.A second-grade civil servant killed a first-grade military general without going through the emperor's review?Why are you doing this?No matter how low your status as a military commander is, you can't do this, right?

At this time, Mao Daozhu didn't know that a time-traveling soul changed his life trajectory. At this moment, he was lying in the yard drinking tea leisurely.There are two maids by her side, one with a rocking fan and one with a massager.

"General, envoys from North Korea are here!" It was his adopted grandson Kong Youde who spoke.

He knew about Jiannu leading his troops to attack North Korea, and he had always been well-informed.At this time, North Korea sent an envoy, and it must have raised troops to accuse it, blaming itself for not sending troops to help.

He met the North Korean envoy with some headaches, without asking his name, and just spoke directly.

"What's wrong with you coming to my place?"

"A few days ago, the Jiannu invaded our country. They attacked several cities and plundered them. The soldiers and civilians of our country suffered numerous casualties. Does the commander-in-chief know at this time?" The envoy looked sad and angry.

"I don't know!"

Ok? ? ?
The words the messenger had prepared were choked back!

have no idea?How could you not know! ?

"The general is joking. The general has great powers, how could he not know this?" The envoy forcibly organized his words.

"I really don't know, when did the fight start? Where are they now? Have they reached Pyongyang? Do you need my general to send troops to help?" Mao Wenlong stared at the envoy with an innocent face and asked enthusiastically.

"Jiannu has retreated."

"That's what I'm saying. Your king is so talented and has so many powerful generals under his command. How could he not be able to defeat even a small Jiannu? Since Jiannu has retreated, why are you here? Delivering food?"

It's okay not to mention the food delivery, but I can't bear to mention the messenger anymore.

"Mr. Mao! Since your troops settled in Phi Island, I have been sending food to the island for free every year. But when we are in danger, Mr. Mao not only just sits idly by, but is still talking sarcasticly! Is this what a gentleman does?”

Before Mao Wenlong said anything, Kong Youde on the side couldn't bear it anymore. Who do you think you are? How dare you yell at my grandfather?At that moment, he grabbed the messenger by the collar and wanted to beat him.

Mao Wenlong quickly stopped Kong Youde and said to the envoy pleasantly:
"It's not that the general doesn't want to help, he really doesn't know about it at all! Now that it has happened, you can see what I can do for you, just ask."

The messenger's expression softened slightly and he slowly stated his request.Exchange food!
"In exchange for food? I told you earlier. How much?"

"The more the better."

"Hahaha. Did the envoy come to bring anything this time?"

"If General Mao agrees, I will go back and prepare now."

"Very good!"

Mao Wenlong was very happy and could make a fortune again.It is true that North Korea sends him several hundred dan of food every year, but if he fights the slaves just for that little food, he will be really confused.

After the messenger left, Mao Wenlong fell into deep thought.

In the two years after the new emperor ascended the throne, he still lived a happy life.But he was getting more and more uneasy.Because he couldn't understand His Majesty's thoughts. There was no need to pay for the annual military pay, but it was never in arrears.Although he paid more, His Majesty was able to distribute according to the actual amount.Is it really a coincidence?Otherwise, why would His Majesty remain indifferent if he knew that I was lying?

Of course Zhu Youjian knew that he was cheating, and the reason why he was indifferent was because it was not time.

Although Mao Wenlong is not very clean, he is really much more useful than Yuan Chonghuan at this time.

"Long live the news from North Korea." Wang Chengen's respectful voice interrupted Zhu Youjian who was reading.

Zhu Youjian took the notebook, smiled and threw it aside after reading it.

The content was nothing more than how pitiful he was after being beaten, and he needed comfort from Daming's father. It would be better if he could get some more money and food.

"Send 10 taels of silver to Li Zhu." After thinking about it, Zhu Youjian ordered.

To be honest, he was reluctant. He didn't have any good impression of these pickle-loving guys.But the Jiannu have not been eliminated yet, and many friends are better than enemies.Anyway, what he needs most now is money.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, it’s the wheat harvest season.There is no shortage of food either.

King Fu's land was conquered years ago, and his imperial estate now covers nearly 500 million acres.

Plant wheat, corn, potatoes, everything of that kind.

I don’t know who will rebel next?

Really been waiting.

After handling government affairs for a while, Zhu Youjian got up and came to Kunning Palace.

As soon as I reached the palace gate, I heard the voice of the emperor's sister-in-law Zhang Yan.

When I walked in, I saw Zhang Yanzheng and Zhou Yufeng teasing Zhu Cixiang together.After stopping the two people from saluting, Zhu Youjian sat down.

"Let me give you a hug." He said, reaching out to hug Zhu Cihong in Zhang Yan's arms.

"Long live the big spendthrift, don't scare the little prince." Zhang Yan turned sideways in a hurry, and said to stop him.

Zhu Youjian retracted his hand and looked at Zhou Yufeng.

It made Zhou Yufeng cover her mouth and snicker.

"In two days, I won't have time to report to the little prince."

"How about this?"

"The imperial sister-in-law has already chosen your concubine for you!"
