Everyone knows that now that Jia Rudao has just arrived in Guangdong, his foundation is not stable, and what he needs most is time and stability. However, the Manichaean cultists in Lingnan and other places obviously saw through this, so they chose to brazenly raise the banner of rebellion again when Jia Nidao's foothold was not stable, intending to catch Jia Nidao by surprise.

"I have had several dealings with people in Manichaeism, and there are still high-ranking people in them, and they should not be underestimated."

Liu Ru thought about it and reminded Jia Rudao.

"Actually, things are equal, there are high-ranking people in Manichaeism, I know, otherwise I would not seize the good opportunity when I first arrived in Guangdong to rebel, but after all, Manichaeism is mixed in the rivers and lakes, relying on demagogic poor people to develop and expand their power, but after all, the righteousness is in my hands, not everyone is willing to follow Manichaeism to rebel, not to mention that the soldiers are a rabble, and those people in Manichaeism are not even a rabble.

Nowadays we are a good woman who can hardly cook without rice, and what about Manichaeism? Masters are also afraid that there is no one to use. One side is a rebellion, and the other side is a righteous imperial army, and compared with the two, we still have a little advantage. What's more, Jinyiwei is in the dark, Manichaeism is in the light, there is a mental calculation or no intention, sixty percent is already good. ”

Jia Rudao naturally knew what Liu Ru was worried about, sat up and said with a smile, and without waiting for Liu Ru to speak, he continued: "Just now Qin Shou said that your clan's ship has arrived at Guangzhou Port, you must have come here for this matter, right?" Let's go, I'll take a look at you, are your parents still alive? ”

Jia Rudao said with a smile as he got up.

"It's all gone, my clan raised me."

Liu Ru was silent for a moment and said lightly.

"Uh...... I'm sorry...... That, you wait first, I'll change my clothes first. ”

Jia Rudao, who was walking towards the study, paused and turned around and apologized.

Regarding Liu Ru's family affairs, Jia Rudao has never asked specifically, of course, Liu Ru has never said it, and the most he usually talks about is Liu Ru's clansmen. Until today, Jia Rudao didn't know why Liu Ru was willing to be Meng Hui's guard in order to let her clansmen take refuge under Meng Hui, and similarly, Liu Ru's willingness to protect Jia Rudao was also for her clansmen.

"I'm curious, where did you learn this kung fu? Couldn't it have been taught to you by your people? ”

In the study, Jia Rudao asked while changing clothes.

"Kung Fu was passed on to me by my master, and at that time, the Jin people were raging, and my master passed by our village. You...... Are you really going to go to the docks? ”

Liu Ru seemed reluctant to say more on this issue, so she asked as soon as she turned around.

"Of course, when your people come, I want to see you. Coming all the way to Guangzhou, you have to let them know that you are okay, right? With me, the appeasement envoy, to decorate your façade, not to mention returning home, at least it shouldn't make you ashamed, right? ”

Jia Rudao's somewhat ridiculous words made Liu Ru roll his eyes and ignore him.

……

After leaving the pacification embassy, the two boarded the carriage and went straight to the docks.

This time, Jia Rudao did not follow lightly, but put on a small guard of honor to appease the envoy, accompanied by three hundred Weiwei troops. said that he wanted to support the façade for Liu Ru, so naturally he couldn't go lightly.

Through the curtain of the carriage, Jia Rudao looked at the people who were hurrying by, his brows furrowed slightly.

A few days ago, the Manichaeans spread rumors everywhere in the city of Guangzhou, and under the suppression and pacification of the Jinyi Wei and the prefect's yamen, the rumors were quickly cleared up. People didn't catch much, even if they caught, they were all small shrimps, and many of them were kept in the dark.

The rumors are gone, but Jia Yidao can clearly feel that compared with the previous bustle, the city of Guangzhou is much more deserted now. The people on the street, seeing the guard of honor of the pacification envoy, seemed to have lost their former leisure, and they were afraid to avoid it. Obviously, the current tranquility is only temporary, if Lianzhou cannot be pacified as soon as possible, or even defeated, then Guangzhou City is afraid that it will face a storm that is countless times bigger than the previous rumors.

"Tomorrow, I'll take someone to Lianzhou."

Liu Ru naturally saw Jia Rudao frowning and said softly.

She naturally knew why Jia Yidao frowned, and as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, she also knew very well how turbulent the undercurrent lurked under the deep water of Guangzhou City was now.

Gasdu retracted his eyes and was silent for a while: "Can they afford it?" ”

"Take a break on the road, they are all people who are used to coming and going in the wind and rain, and they are not so expensive."

Liu Ru stroked her sideburns and said with a rare smile.

As long as Lianzhou is pacified, the overall situation in Guangdong will be stable, and Wuping's Manichaeism will be able to slowly plan for it, and it will not be so passive. Although Liu Ru rarely participates, it doesn't mean that she can't understand where Jia Rudao's current predicament is. What's more, no matter how she says now, she is also the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and she knows far more than ordinary officials.

"Okay, then please."

Jia Rudao looked at Liu Ru and smiled.

Although he said that sixty percent was already a lot of certainty, both he and Liu Ru knew that it was An Qin Shouxin's words, and Lianzhou could not be defeated no matter what, not only could it not be defeated, but it was also necessary to use the power of thunder to strangle the sharp energy of Manichaeism, only in this way could the greater ambition of Manichaeism be curbed.

Once Lianzhou gets out of control, then all parts of Guangdong will be full of smoke.

Saying that, the carriage has been unimpeded all the way to the old port of Guangzhou.

Jia Rudao jumped out of the carriage, and the voices of people rushing downstream.

There, is where Guangzhou Xingang is located.

Although there were Manichaean rebellions in Lianzhou and Wuping, the rebuilding of the port of Guangzhou did not stop because of this.

Since that day, a group of sect elders from Guangzhou went to the prefect's yamen to make a fuss, and the next day they asked to see Jia Nidao again, and then met with Zheng Mingxuan and others under the leadership of Jia Nidao. Although the families were not in harmony, they at least lived on face and soon reached an agreement.

Guangzhou Port was jointly built by Zheng Mingxuan's four families and the local clans in Guangzhou, the local clans in Guangzhou contributed labor, Zheng Mingxuan and others contributed silver, and the Guangzhou government was responsible for arranging everything. In addition, in the division of the Guangzhou port elements, Zheng Mingxuan and others took out two percent, and the Yamen of the General Department of the City Ship took out one percent, and divided three parts into three parts and gave them to the local clans in Guangdong.

As a result, Guangzhou Port has become a five-part of the Yamen of the General Department of the City, Zheng Mingxuan's four families are two percent, and Guangzhou's local clans are three percent. It's a joy for all.

However, the price of giving so many molecules is that if the local clans in Guangdong want to have shops, warehouses, and docks in the new Guangzhou port, they must pay for silver, and their only advantage is that they can buy them first. did not enter Zheng Mingxuan, and the four generally had their own wharves and warehouses.

Thinking about it, with the financial resources of the four families of Wang Dai and Zhang Xing, whether it is for face or for others, they are very willing to pay money to buy a clan-exclusive wharf. In these cases, Jia Yidao is naturally happy to see it, the wharf will not be permanent, it is all governed by the county for a long time, plus the warehouses and shops, as long as the Guangzhou Port is completed, the pacification embassy will soon have a large amount of income.
