Chapter 179. Lolita's set
Mao Jue came to Jiangnan this time to make money, but in Yiwu for more than ten days, he became a boy with money. He had spent more than 60,000 taels. The more than 30,000 acres of mountain fields near the county town were also developed. But now, the investment still cannot be stopped. When he did not see any profit in the first year, he was the most expensive. According to this situation, he had to invest at least more than 30,000 taels.
However, Mao Jue hesitated for a moment and paid it off without making jokes. Yiwu in later generations was a miracle, a pioneer who dared to reform under the rigid system. Mao Jue was happy to see if he could create a miracle in Jiangnan.
Moreover, Yiwu has shed blood for the world. Qi Jiguang owes people here. As a junior, he will pay it back.
As a recruiter, Nan Bing has been living in such a comfortable life these days. He had to run and do his job when he got up at 5 a.m. When he got up, he still practiced formations. But Mao was fine. He just stood in the cold air, not moving at all, and he was whipped if he moved.
Listening to the burning and planting on the hillside of the back mountain, wild boars occasionally ran out, which made the villagers catch them in a panic. Listening to this sound made these young people feel itchy.
At the end of March, more than half of Mao Jue's three-month holiday had passed, but he had not done anything about what Mao Wenlong told him. He couldn't delay here anymore, so he could only return to Hangzhou quickly. However, at this time, he was on the right track. The sugarcane seedlings that went in first had already emerged lushly, and the local black-feathered chickens were also thrown into the sugarcane field. In addition to feeding wheat bran and rice bran, a lot of time could be gathered, and the remaining time was to run around the mountain.
What made these southern soldiers depressed was that ten days ago, the elders of the hometown still hated Mao Jue so much that their teeth were itchy, but just a few days ago, the big guy's attitude made another 180-degree turn.
"My son! Mao Shuai is different from those dog officials before! Follow Mao Shuai and fight hard, don't lose the face of our Yiwu soldiers!"
"Everything is fine at home, you don't have to worry about it. When you arrive in the north, General Mao will hit anyone you say and fight to the death!"
"Everything is followed by Mr. Mao!"
After all, parting is sad, but while farewelling to his own soldiers, the Yiwu fathers are all reminding them, which makes the soldiers who are about to leave feel like they are being sold.
When we came, there were a convoy, and when we returned, there were a large number of 1,000 people. The team was farewell to the north. As the head coach, Mao Jue was also surrounded by these fellow villagers and reluctantly bid farewell.
While leaving, he also reminded him with concern.
"Don't spend the money you gave it to you. This is a chicken that lays golden eggs. Just keep it! Starting this autumn, a steady stream of golden eggs can be laid. I will send someone again when the time comes!"
"General Mao, don't worry! Although Zhao is not a big official in his life, he has seen many great people. Like you, you have never been willing to settle down for the soldiers' villages. As the head of Yiwu, don't worry! Zhao takes everyone to spend every penny of money on his face!"
Yiwu is a famous poor county, and it is tough and difficult to manage. Those who can be sent here are generally down and out. However, in this great era, the most down and out are upright people! Although the surname Zhao is fat and his personality has been smoothed out, he is still a good official with a conscience. While accompanying Mao Jue, he even patted his chest to ensure his promise.
"Yeah, I believe in you!"
Thousands of words were probably not as touching as these simple words. Mao Jue clasped his fists with a smile and once again moved the fat man's face slightly. In just a few seconds, County Magistrate Zhao, who no longer needed words, hugged his fists heavily.
Here we almost arrived at the exit of Yiwu County, the bumpy loess official road when we came. We suddenly turned over and turned around and hugged our fists heavily at the Yiwu father Mao Jue who was seeing him off.
"The green mountains remain unchanged, and the green water flows forever. Mao left here. If Mao was lucky in the future, he would not die in the battlefield and be killed under the sword and in the ravines, he would definitely go to Guixian in person to thank his fellow villagers for their support!"
"Great send to General Mao!"
Headed by the Chen family and the Zhao County Magistrate, dozens of fellow villagers all worshiped each other.
…………
Although the carriage was very bumpy, it was not as comfortable to ride a car. He rode out bravely for about ten miles. I guess these villagers should go back. After a slap, Mao Jue got back into Luo Ning's comfortable carriage and leaned hard on the soft mink mattress.
"The people's hearts are simple!"
He was so emotional that he rubbed the corners of his eyes, and Mao Jue hummed in melancholy.
"I have done such a little thing for the village, so these villagers can make their children fight for their lives for the sake of their lives! I am guilty!"
"What the magistrate Zhao County said is right. The great people I have seen are like crucian carp trees crossing the river, and their words are loud and loud. I don't know how many people who are passionate about the great masters have seen them. But most of them are empty talkers, and they are just talking so well. Last year, the Jiangning flooded, and these wealthy officials and gentry had been arguing with each other for more than a month. In the end, they were the victims who were the merchants who raised money and grain to provide relief!"
I don’t know if it’s a compliment or a real emotion, Mao Jue was there modestly, and the woman shook her head and sighed.
"I would have had more warriors like General Mao in our Ming Dynasty!"
Luo Ning was really good at speaking. Mao Jue was so stupid that he felt so comfortable when he heard it. But at this moment, the woman's little fox tail was exposed again, and her beautiful big eyes were full of cunning expressions. Luo Ning carefully looked at her little head from the side.
"General Mao, I also want to hire some people here, open a few acres of mountain fields, and get some sugar for the tribe members. I wonder what you are thinking?"
"Miss Luo can do it by herself. Jinhua is vast. If Miss Luo reaches out to support her, she will make the local people live a better life, Mao will be grateful!"
"So, that's it!"
Mao Jue agreed without thinking and got his answer. Luo Ning's delicate little face suddenly had a smug smile like a little fox who had secretly eaten grapes. He quickly covered the beautiful feather fan tightly, leaving only a pair of watery black eyebrows and crescent moons.
…………
It was still like this that the road was broken. This time there were more than 1,700 infantry soldiers who didn't even resist the gun. This time, they walked for three days. Mao Jue didn't dare to place so many soldiers and horses in the suburbs of Hangzhou. The censor who was accustomed to be like the Internet trolls in later generations. Mao Jue didn't want anyone to bite him hard by the Mining Mag behind him. He took advantage of the night to send the recruited Nanmen to Nanguan, and sent them to Hangzhou Bay first and transported them to Zhoushan to stay.
Su Yi was stuffed back by him and followed Luo Ning home first. When he returned to Luo Family Manor, it was almost four o'clock in the morning. Mao Jue arranged for the military commander to go to the military contact ship. He had to arrange the remaining personal soldiers himself. After doing these Mao Jue was really sleepy like his grandson. He dragged his tired body and wandered around in a daze to his own room in the west courtyard.
But at this point, there was a dark shadow sitting at the door at the door. Seeing Mao Jue wandering back, this guy immediately rushed over in three steps.
"Oh, Master Jiang, you are back!"
"Mr. Zheng, it's so late, haven't you gone to bed yet?"
"Where can I sleep?"
Amid Mao Jue's surprised expression, the old guy slapped his thighs suddenly, his face wrinkled like an old orange peel, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, don't know, something big happened in the past few days you have left!"
…………
After cooking the vegetarian clothes, the girl was pulled into the bed by Mao Jue. Although this girl has suffered heavy injuries these days, her bright red mouth always has a little other touch to play with. Fortunately, she slept like a kitten in the inner room, and Mao Jue could also huddle in the alley in the outer room and talk to Zheng Duo about things.
"In the generation of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Hangzhou, the price of northern goods has dropped by about 50%. The best minks fell from ten taels of silver per piece, and the best ginseng fell by eight taels. The northern goods we brought us suddenly lost 960,000 taels!"
This amount is almost worth the entire city of a northern county. Mao Jue almost vomited blood and knocked on the table in a very sad way.
"Why is the price drop suddenly so badly? Is it warmer to get marten skins now? But spring is also the time for ginseng tonic, so it won't lose so much?"
"Do you know, Mr. Jiang?"
Zheng Duo's old orange-skinned face looked at the East Courtyard with an extremely sad face, and stretched out his finger.
"That masterpiece!"
"The Luo family was in the north in her early years and was said to have Mongolian ancestry. When it came to that grandfather, she moved to Hangzhou. With her relationship in the north, the Luo family mainly operated this northern goods! It can be said that the Luo family is the largest in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area, and at least 60% of the northern goods in the market are in the hands of the Luo family."
"Do you know what this person's nickname is? Lori!"
"Originally, the Luo family suffered a disaster in the past few years. Her grandfather, father, and two uncles in charge of the company have suffered a disaster. Either something happened when receiving goods in the north, or they had dysentery and died of illness. In three years, the Luo family was left with only a pair of siblings. Everyone pushed them. The Luo family's own clan followed the door to make trouble. The uncles and uncles in the distance wanted to divide the family property and smashed the gate of the Luo Mansion. Even her servants rose up to rebel and burned several villages. We all thought the Luo family was finished, but what do you think?"
His old face was slapped, and this old sea merchant who had been running on the coast of Fuzhou, Zhejiang for most of his life shook his head with emotion.
"No one knows what happened that night, but those servants got it all the time. Four uncles and uncles of the Luo family who were furious suddenly died. One was crazy and the other was corrupt and the other was thrown into the prison of Hangzhou Prefecture. Now it's not known where it's rotten. She is a woman, so many hungry wolves are shocked to retract their claws."
"Master Jiang, I thought you knew this little vixen!"
He was heartbroken, and the old guy rubbed his thighs sadly, and he really didn't want to pat him anymore. His legs had already swollen.
"Loli...,luoli..."
I really didn't expect that this beautiful Jiangnan girl, who is as delicate as an official lady, would have such ability to call the wind and rain. After muttering for a few words, Mao Jue spread his hands sadly again.
"But why did she keep the price so low? If we can't sell it, wouldn't she also pay for it?"
