Chapter 291: Going to the Appointment

Mao Wenlong finally took the advice given by Hong Chengchou, and he wrote back to Chongzhen, promising to meet with him, but mentioning that the place of the meeting must be decided by him. Fastest updates

Chongzhen's reply was delivered quickly, and he agreed boldly, of course, he also put forward conditions to Mao Wenlong, and he must be in a place where the safety of both parties is ensured.

In this way, Mao Wenlong was quite embarrassed, he really didn't know where to put the meeting place.

Hong Chengchou seemed to guess Mao Wenlong's difficulty, and he said with a smile: "Actually, just make an appointment to meet in Kaifeng Mansion." ”

Mao Wenlong really couldn't think of where to meet, he simply chose to trust Hong Chengchou completely, and this time he was also ready to let Hong Chengchou accompany him.

So after the two decided on the location, they wrote back to Chongzhen again, and Chongzhen quickly replied and agreed to the place Mao Wenlong chose. And the time of the meeting was set for ten days later, and the two sides went quietly without revealing their respective whereabouts.

The time agreed by the two parties is ten days later, and it only takes five days for Mao Wenlong to rush to Kaifeng Mansion, so his time is very sufficient. It just happened to give Hong Chengchou more time to arrange his affairs.

During this period, Mao Wenlong received a letter from Chen Jisheng, saying that they had successfully arrived near Jiayuguan and were preparing to go to the Sea of Death to meet Kong Youde and Shang Kexi.

Knowing that their side was going well, Mao Wenlong was also relieved, as for whether Kong Youde and Shang Kexi could get out of the desert alive in the end. Then, as Chen Jisheng said before, it depends on whether they are lucky enough.

Five days later, Mao Wenlong set off as promised, accompanied by Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan, who were clamoring to go together. Originally, Mao Wenlong didn't want to agree, after all, it was not a small matter to go to see Chongzhen, the emperor.

And at present, Mao Wenlong doesn't know what Chongzhen's purpose is, and it is possible that there will be an accident this time. Bring your ladies with you, and if you are unlucky enough to have an accident, they will be in danger.

However, Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan were very persistent this time and did not make any concessions at all. In their opinion, this time Mao Wenlong is at most going to the mountains and rivers, and the two girls naturally refuse to let go of such an opportunity.

Mao Wenlong finally failed to convince the two, and under the persuasion of Hong Chengchou, he reluctantly agreed to accompany Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan. But Mao Wenlong deliberately asked the two of them to pretend to be girls.

As long as they can travel with them, Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan have no objection to this request. And at the beginning of the journey, another woman joined in. This person is Li Xiu, and Mao Wenlong specially called her, the purpose of which was to let her protect the safety of the second daughter.

Mao Wenlong, who originally wanted to travel lightly, had to prepare his things now. Fortunately, all the way to this is in Henan, and there are no worries.

Five days can allow Mao Wenlong to move forward, and in autumn, the continuous high temperature has weakened. Autumn is also a good time to go out in the wild.

It is rare to have such an opportunity, Mao Wenlong is not in a hurry, and he will stop every time he passes through a town and a city, and take his second daughter to play. He also learned about the real situation in various places by the way, and he personally observed the people's feelings.

Mao Wenlong has also gained a lot along the way, and the cultivated land in various places is very saturated, and there is almost no wasteland. Moreover, the growth of grain is very gratifying, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of harvest this time.

However, due to irrigation problems and still dry weather, although the growth of these cultivated lands is okay, it still cannot be compared with Xuzhou.

Hong Chengchou also recorded all the problems he saw along the way, and finally came to a conclusion, that is, after this year's autumn harvest. It is necessary to carry out the problem of repairing canals and irrigating farmland in Henan and other places.

Only by solving these problems will there be a better harvest next year, otherwise it is very likely that even these high-yielding, drought-tolerant crops may not survive.

Henan, which has just returned to calm, still has many problems to be solved by Mao Wenlong. But there are actually a lot of good things, at least after the influx of those displaced people, after two months of precipitation, these people have begun to really settle down.

At first, there were people who wanted to do things, but now these people have completely stopped, and everyone is living in peace. Those wealthy families also followed Mao Wenlong's requirements and treated these people who farmed for them to ensure that they had food and clothing for two meals a day.

Moreover, Mao Wenlong carefully found that many of these exiled people were so smart that they began to open up wasteland in some remote places and plant sweet potatoes, which are the easiest to survive.

In this way, when the harvest season comes, they will also have their own harvest, and they will not be taxed at all. Although their privately grown sweet potatoes are not growing well because they are all corner plots or plots that are not suitable for planting.

But in the end, these are all extra anyway, and everyone is happy with the harvest, and the confiscation of the harvest has not caused these people to lose anything.

Kaifeng Mansion and Zhengzhou are adjacent to each other, and the two places are bounded by the Yellow River because Huaiqing Mansion faces each other, and Henan and Shanxi are also bounded by the Yellow River.

The place where Mao Wenlong and Chongzhen met was on the edge of the Yellow River, and a three-story cruise ship docked on the edge of the Yellow River.

Zhuang Yexiang, the city lord of Kaifeng City, personally welcomed Mao Wenlong to the dock in Kaifeng City, and from here, Mao Wenlong left by boat.

Zhuang Yexiang didn't know the purpose of Mao Wenlong's trip, but when he saw that he even brought his family, he took it for granted that Mao Wenlong just came to play with his family.

She didn't think much about it, so she asked Mao Wenlong to come and be their guide in person, and accompanied Mao Wenlong's two wives by the way. Zhuang Yexiang also wanted to please Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan, and the relationship with Mao Wenlong could be one step closer.

Mao Wenlong smiled and agreed, he promised Zhuang Ye of course because of her skills are not bad, with her with her, the safety of Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan will be another guarantee.

As for seeing Chongzhen, for the time being, Mao Wenlong has not informed Zhuang Yexiang, but wants to explain to her later.

The pleasure boat slowly shored off the shore, slowly gliding on the turbid Yellow River, because of the need to go upstream, so the shore was pulled by more than 30 slender men.

"Is there a place you want to go?" After the boat moved slowly, Zhuang Yexiang found Mao Wenlong and asked if he had any itinerary.

After Mao Wenlong and Hong Chengchou glanced at each other, he smiled and said, "Keep moving forward until you meet another big ship, and then come and tell me." ”

Zhuang Yexiang didn't say much, and immediately resigned and went down to arrange.
