Chapter 34 It's all about money
Zhu Hongsan was startled, and looked back. It turned out that it was the second uncle Ma Mingyuan who filmed himself.
Ma Mingyuan whispered, "Lord, come with me." β
Zhu Hongsan followed him back to the Shiweitian Restaurant. Ma Mingyuan asked the man to remove the remnants of the table, and ordered four side dishes and a pot of wine. After sitting down, he asked, "My lord, you did this." β
Zhu Hongsan snorted and said, "Ah, yes, it's not all about making trouble without money." You know, I made that steelmaking furnace a money-eating beast. The first furnace of steel has been handed over to Ma Youfu for sale, but the return of the money is too slow and delayed. I happened to see them wishing their family a prosperous business, and they wanted to get some money to alleviate their urgent needs. β
Ma Mingyuan's eyebrows jumped, thinking that this ruthless person had come out of the White Lotus Sect for a little money.
Ma Mingyuan opened his mouth and asked, "My lord, do you know that they are the White Lotus Sect, what will happen to them?" β
Zhu Hongsan said: "Isn't it all over the house? Could it be that the Great Ming Law has been exiled? β
Ma Mingyuan was completely speechless, and he couldn't reason with this freak at all. He doesn't take human life seriously at all. Thinking of this, Ma Mingyuan felt that it was his responsibility to teach himself the correct outlook on life of this lord, or he would be like this if he killed himself in the future.
Ma Mingyuan cleared his throat and said: "It is understandable that the lord wants to do anything to achieve great things, but they are all the ones who should be killed. Isn't it a bit too much for the lord to treat a person he doesn't know? β
Zhu Hongsan heard that Ma Mingyuan was dissatisfied with himself, and said with a smile: "Sir, I don't know, the Zhu family is good at earning ill-gotten gains, there are so many displaced people outside the city, and the rich families in the city have donated money to help, and his family has nothing to do." I'm just doing the right thing for heaven. I know that there is a bit of a work in these today, and I promise to pay attention next time, and discuss with Mr. in advance. β
Ma Mingyuan sighed, it seems that Zhu Hongsan didn't listen to his words. Ma Mingyuan felt that Zhu Hongsan was too much like Zhu Yuanzhang, regardless of whether he was right or wrong, he would kill him first. Thinking of this, Ma Mingyuan felt that his future was a little not very good.
Zhu Hongsan saw that Ma Mingyuan didn't speak, and knew that he was a little unhappy. Thinking that this is his first strategist, if he has a mustard in his heart, it will be difficult to do things in the future. Thinking of this, Zhu Hongsan took out the dagger in his arms, and at the same time knelt down in front of Ma Mingyuan and said: "I am an old man, I know that Mr. has good intentions for me, and everything in the future will obey Mr. As he spoke, he plunged a dagger into his thigh and stabbed him in pair.
When Ma Mingyuan saw it, he also knelt down and cried: "The lord killed me, it's me who is wrong, please bandage the wound quickly." β
Zhu Hongsan got up and looked at it and said, "Sir, don't worry, I didn't hurt my bones." Then he tore off his clothes and bandaged his wounds.
After all the bandages were finished, Zhu Hongsan said: "This time I can probably get 10,000 taels of silver, and I want to ask Mr. for help." β
"My lord, please speak."
"I want to ask Mr. to go to Guangdong to make friends with local officials, didn't Mr. say that he wants to go to Guangdong for development? I think it's hard to get to GD where I'm going, and it's hard to do anything. That's all there is to it. I can only trust Mr., Mr. took this 10,000 taels, and he had to go to Nanzhili first and make friends with Shi Kefa and other Donglin parties. Then go to GD to see the terrain around Guangzhou, and that place is suitable for footholding. In case you need it in the future. β
Ma Mingyuan asked: "It's okay to go to Guangdong, why do you want to go to Nanzhili to make friends with the Donglin Party?" β
Zhu Hongsan said: "These Donglin stirring sticks are not sweet and vinegar are very sour, in case the north changes in the future, they must support a new monarch in Nanzhili, whether we can go to GD or not to correct their name depends on them, after all, I am a clan identity, and it is a big crime to escape from the vassal." β
Ma Mingyuan nodded and said, "Please rest assured, I will go home and prepare to set off, I will definitely do these things." Then the two discussed some details, leaving them alone for the time being.

Here Feng hit the back of the head with his busy foot, and such a big case has not been encountered in Wuchang Mansion for a hundred years. Feng Ziyong returned to the county government and immediately tried Zhu Youcai first.
Of course Zhu Youcai doesn't recruit (there is no recruitment, is it fake). It's not easy to move, a stick board, I wish you to be punished but a bite to eat, what kind of delivery guys, merchants who come to the goods, anyway, I don't know all the bites.
Good guy, after finishing the matter, Feng Ziyong saw that there were hundreds of people on the list. Immediately asked the inspection department to take the list and follow the map, and took these people back one after another. It was another meal of sticks, and everyone confessed one after another that he and Zhu Youcai were preparing to rebel in the uprising on August 15. This time, it's okay, the human and material evidence are all there, as for writing the reporting materials, can it be difficult for an old bureaucrat like Feng Ziyong.
Soon a report of thousands of words was concocted. In this, the county magistrate Feng Ziyong found that Zhu Youcai's family was wrong as soon as he came to Wuchang County (I don't know how he found out that a soy sauce seller was wrong), and ordered the team leader Li Fugui to closely supervise Zhu Youcai's family.
Under the personal leadership of the county commander Feng Ziyong, Zhu Youcai's family was controlled, and after Zhu Youcai found that there was no way out, he actually detonated a self-made earth-shattering thunder, but fortunately, no one was injured except for the two White Lotus Sect bandits. After taking control of Zhu Youcai's family, the county ordered Feng to conduct a surprise interrogation overnight, and determined that there were 108 criminals, 93 of whom had been arrested, and the other 15 had fled in advance.
Zhu Youcai confessed that the incident was originally scheduled for August 15, and planned to attack Wuchang Mansion, kill His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and establish his own country as Chu. Then go north to meet SX bandit leader Gao Yingxiang and attack the Beijing division.
Fifteen days after Feng County's report reported on Wuchang Mansion, the reply came down. The order was sent by Nan Zhili. Ninety-three people under the head of the bandits, Zhu Youcai, were executed, 15 escaped were arrested and brought to justice in various prefectures and counties, and the families of the criminals were executed and executed over the age of 12, and the female dependents were castrated as prostitutes.
Wuchang County ordered Feng to use himself to solve the case, the Ministry of Officials recorded merit once, and the three-year assessment period expired according to the two-level promotion, Wuchang County team leader Li Fugui investigated meritorious, and is now mentioned as the classic history of Wuchang County. Anyway, from the county to the government to the political envoys, everyone in the yamen was promoted and made a fortune. The order was sent to the county, and the heads of the people were killed immediately, so that no one in the county dared to go to the streets for several days.
Don't propose the question of the sub, let's talk about Zhu Hongsan. I didn't go to the farm these days because of my thigh injury. A few days ago, the new historian Li Fugui came to Zhu Hong's three houses to send silver. Now Li Fugui saw that Zhu Hong's legs and stomachs were a little turned, and he killed more than 200 people for 20,000 taels of silver. Li Fugui felt that he still didn't want to mess with this grandfather.
Anyway, he has been promoted, a total of 21,000 taels of silver Li Fugui didn't ask for it at all, all of them pulled Zhu Hongsan's family to come, and they kowtowed when they met, and Zhu Hongsan was embarrassed. As soon as he called Brother Li, Li Fugui was almost so frightened that he didn't pull his pants. didn't even dare to say it, put down the money and ran away immediately. Li Fugui thought that it was best to stay away from this guy, it was too terrible to kill people while talking and laughing.
Zhu Hongsan watched Li Fugui run away and scolded in his heart, what should I do if my mother's two big cars of silver are put in my house? I can't go out to change it for a silver ticket if my leg injury is not healed, and I have to watch it without sleep in the middle of the night. Just at this time, Zhao Goudan came, and Zhu Hongsan was happy to say that a coolie came, and arranged for Zhao Goudan to go to Rixinglong to find someone to exchange the silver for a silver ticket.
After two days, when his legs were better, he could go to the ground, and Zhu Hongsan led Zhao Goudan to Ma's house. Today, one is to propose marriage, and the other is to send silver to Ma Mingyuan. The proposal was very simple, and I met my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Under the angry eyes of his father-in-law, Zhu Hongsan proposed to marry Ma Xiaofang. Mrs. Ma hurriedly agreed, and set a wedding on August 15. Then Zhu Hongsan was called away by Ma Mingyuan to discuss major matters.
In the study, Zhu Hongsan took out 10,000 taels of silver tickets and said, "Sir, this is 10,000 taels, if the money is not enough, you can reply to the letter and ask for it again, I will let someone take it." β
Ma Mingyuan said: "Don't worry, the lord has more than 10,000 taels, Mingyuan can't come back without half a year, the lord should be careful at home." If there is anything, you can go to the second cousin Feng for his own use. β
Zhu Hongsan pouted when he heard it and said, "Is he okay with a low eye?" If there is anything, let's wait for the gentleman to come back. β
Ma Mingyuan smiled and said: "Don't look down on Feng Ziyong, although he is a little pedantic, but he still has ability, plus he has been a magistrate for many years, and his grasp of officialdom is still stronger than Mingyuan." β
Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Okay, then according to what Mr. said, I'll ask him if there's anything that can't be solved." β
Ma Mingyuan continued: "But the lord doesn't want to tell him the truth, the first few **** tested it, and he is still waiting and seeing." At the same time, Ma Mingyuan thought to himself, if it weren't for Zhu Hongsan, you would have been able to get out of the mountain so quickly?
Zhu Hongsan asked, "What did he say?" β
"Hey, I didn't say anything else, I just don't believe that the Ming Dynasty, which has been inherited for nearly three hundred years, can die" Ma Mingyuan thought as he spoke, don't talk about him, I also feel that I can't die.
Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "I just received the news that Gao Yingxiang led 200,000 people out of Tongguan and Ben HN. I expect something big to happen at the end of the year or next year. β
"How can the lord see it?"
"You see that the south side of HN is the Yangtze River, and you can't come without a boat, and the north side is SX, which is poorer than HN, and if you die. Only go to the east. SD was heavily defended by the imperial court along the first line of the canal, followed by Hong Chengchou leading troops to pursue. Liukou are the best at mobile warfare, and I think they can only go to Fengyang. β
Ma Mingyuan was shocked: "Fengyang? Isn't that where the Imperial Tomb is? (Fengyang is the grave of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents)
"Yes," Zhu Hongsan sighed and said, "My unscrupulous descendants can't even protect their ancestral graves, it's really a crime that deserves death." By the way, Mr. go to Nanzhili and don't go to the front line of Fengyang, remember. β
Zhu Hongsan thought for a while and said, "There is one more thing, you went to Nanzhili to see Ruan Dacheng." β
Ma Mingyuan asked, "Isn't he a eunuch?" Is it useful to see him? β
Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "I have a hunch that Ruan Dacheng is going to have good luck." He hates dogs now, so you don't have to be too enthusiastic with him, just go and see it, sometimes it's more useful to burn a cold stove than a hot stove. β
Since he is here to marry today, Ma Guoxiang is not satisfied with this uncle, and he has to arrange a meal. Unexpectedly, Ma Xiaofang came out halfway through the meal and led Zhu Hongsan. The angry Ma Guoxiang scolded his daughter for not keeping the woman's way, so if she didn't get married, she ran out to meet.
