Ma Liang couldn't hide the excitement on his face, feeling that Wang Baoyu had not changed, and he was still that good friend who was righteous enough, so he immediately reported the development of Yiling over the years.

Despite efforts to control the city's population, there are now more than 70,000 registered residents in Yiling City, and the trend continues to expand. The money on the government's books is as high as 80,000 taels of gold, in fact, it should be 100,000 taels, when Liu Bei entered Sichuan, he borrowed 20,000 taels, saying that it was urgent, but it has not been repaid.

In addition, the gold and silver in circulation in the money village are as high as hundreds of thousands of taels of gold.

According to Ma Liang, the income of 10,000 taels of gold comes from the sale of handicrafts produced in the city, and Da Qiao has contributed a lot to this.

Wang Baoyu looked excited, so much money can do a lot of big things, and praised Ma Liang's good governance in recent years, a rare talent. Ma Liang smiled and said a few words modestly, and then said one more thing, which made Wang Baoyu frown, and he didn't have any support in his heart.

"The larger merchants in Yiling City are all involved in Mo Qianxun, and the commerce and trade of the subordinate counties are also in his hands. This person is shrewd and capable, where there is investment, there is no reason to lose money, so the people in the city regard him as a weather vane, as long as Mo Qianxun has any moves, they will follow the trend to participate. Ma Liang said.

"Such a strong appeal is indeed a good thing on the surface, but then again, if something happens to this person, won't it affect the economy of Yiling?" Wang Baoyu asked worriedly.

Not only that, but his people are kind and charitable, and they are deeply popular with the people. Since he came to Yiling, he has never had any bad deeds, and he is free to do business, and I can't help it. Ma Liang said.

"Where did it come from?"

"I don't know, it's just that the lord heard about his talent and came to invite him several times, but Mo Qianxun refused all of them, just stayed in this Yiling City." Ma Liang said.

Who the hell is this? Sun Quan or Cao Cao's spies? But isn't it unreasonable for such a skilled person to be a spy and make a lot of money for Yiling?

Wang Baoyu was confused, but there was no doubt about it, Mo Qianxun's head was definitely super-first-class smart, but he didn't know whether his heart was black or red.

"In this way, send someone to inform him, tonight in the Bagong Mansion, I will invite him alone." Wang Baoyu said.

Ma Liang immediately sent someone to make arrangements, and Wang Baoyu asked again: "How is Wen Ji's cousin?" ”

As soon as he said this, Ma Liang's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "I really didn't know that there was such a strange woman in the world, and Wen Ji's talent was immeasurable!" After coming to Yiling, Wen Ji assisted Yueying and put forward many effective laws and regulations, and everything has laws to follow, and laws are feasible. ”

Wang Baoyu grinned, on the one hand, he felt that he had not seen the wrong person, on the other hand, he was also happy for Cai Wenji, who had been lonely for many years, and could finally show what he had learned in his life and no longer have regrets.

"Wen Ji is quite strategic, in my opinion, her feudal marquis is still small, but he can enter the phase and govern the world." Ma Liang praised from the bottom of his heart.

Ma Liang praised Cai Wenji as a flower, and Wang Baoyu was also very happy, in fact, Ma Liang didn't know that Cai Wenji still had the fate of the Nine Phoenix Supreme, what is a mere prime minister? In Wang Baoyu's view, Cai Wenji's honor comes from the fact that her son will be king in the future, and she is naturally named the queen mother. It's just that Wang Baoyu ignored one point, since Cai Wenji has returned to the Han Dynasty, she will not return to the Xiongnu, why did the Queen Mother say it?

Wang Baoyu smiled and asked, "Where is Wen Ji?" ”

"Marquis Wuzhao's Mansion!"

"Okay, I'll go see her first." Wang Baoyu said, got up and rushed to Cai Wenji.

The scale of the Marquis of Wuzhao's mansion is not large, but it looks very new, at first glance, it was Ma Liang who ordered someone to build it for Cai Wenji, and when he came to the door to report his name, the servants hurriedly brought him in.

Cai Wenji was sitting in the hall reading a book, still with that unfazed expression, when she saw Wang Baoyu coming in, a shallow smile appeared on her face, and she asked, "Baoyu, why don't you go and see Lord Sun first?" ”

"There's no hurry!" Wang Baoyu smiled and asked, "Wen Ji, are you still used to it here?" ”

"As you said that day, Yiling is really a land of freedom, Wen Ji is like a bird entering the sky, and a fish diving into the deep sea, very comfortable." Cai Wenji said sincerely.

"I heard that you are tired and have made a great contribution to Yiling." Wang Baoyu said.

"If you can share your worries for Baoyu, no matter how tired you are, it's worth it." Cai Wenji said with a pun.

Looking at Cai Wenji's ageless pretty face and autumn-like eyes, Wang Baoyu felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart, came to Cai Wenji's side, and reached out to grab her little hand.

Cai Wenji's face suddenly flushed, and she struggled slightly, but in the end, Wang Baoyu grabbed her hand like this, and looked at each other for a while, and her words turned into silence.

"Wen Ji, I've really missed you in the past few years." Wang Baoyu said emotionally.

Cai Wenji naturally understood what Wang Baoyu meant, sighed, a touch of melancholy appeared on her face, and said seriously: "Wenji's remnants of flowers and willow bodies, Meng Baoyu's salvation is already a blessing in life." Shang Xiang and Yun Lu were born in famous families, beautiful and talented, they are all rare women, and Baoyu should not be negative. ”

"In my eyes, they are not as good as you, and it's okay to laugh and relieve boredom, but they don't understand my heart." Wang Baoyu said.

"I don't know!" Cai Wenji shook her head and said.

"What do you mean by that?"

"First Guan Ting, Shang Xiang, Yun Lu, and then Qi Ying, Kirby Qing, in my opinion, Jin Feng also has affection for you, Baoyu, where is your heart?" Cai Wenji asked.

Wang Baoyu couldn't help scratching his head, this was really a trouble, after thinking about it, he still said: "Things are actually not complicated, I like Shang Xiang without fake, because she looks the same as my modern lover." Yunlu, it was his brother Ma Chao who advocated that she marry me, and we didn't have much contact with each other, so we couldn't talk about emotional issues. Qiying and Kirby Qing are similar to Yunlu, they are all reluctant to accept it, as for Jin Feng, we once pretended to be married, and I don't have any thoughts about her. ”

"What about the others?"

"No, and I'm marching all the way to fight, and I don't care about hooking up with other women!" Wang Baoyu looked innocent, seeing Cai Wenji's not very satisfied expression, he suddenly patted his head and said: "As for Huoya, Xiaoyun, there should be no need to repeat it!" ”

Cai Wenji sighed, glanced at Wang Baoyu with resentment, and asked, "Then Guan Yu's sister Guan Ting, who has been guarding you for many years, there should always be a result, right?" ”

Guan Ting? Wang Baoyu was stunned, and indeed found that he had ignored her again, the entanglement between him and Guan Ting had reached the point of inextricable chaos, and it could not be resolved by a few things and a few words.

"Why don't you speak?" Cai Wenji looked directly into Wang Baoyu's eyes, Wang Baoyu did not evade, and said: "This is indeed a trouble, we can only wait!" ”
