Sun Zhaoyuan's words have three deep meanings: first, it implies that Jin Fei and Jiang Fugui are not only themselves, but also Wu Biqi, the commander of the Nine Gates, is his two backstage, this Wu Biqi and Sun Zhaoyuan are close, although they borrowed some prestige from him, he will not blame Sun Zhaoyuan if he knows it in the future; Second, Jin Fei and Jiang Fugui got this fat difference because they dared to risk their lives to help his grandson Zhaoyuan run errands, and after they succeeded, they should be rewarded; Third, if you officials know the affairs and do a good job for him Sun Zhaoyuan, if you do a good job, you will be rewarded, and those officials will naturally regard his Sun Zhaoyuan as a good opportunity to get to the top, and it will not be good to do things in the future.

All the officials picked up their wine glasses, smiled on their faces, and said, "But driven by adults, even if you are in danger, you have nothing to fear." ”

Jin Fei and Jiang Fugui were even more red, raised their wine glasses and drank them all.

On the same day, Sun Zhaoyuan drank a lot of wine with Jin Fei and Jiang Fugui alone, and talked alone for a long time. These actions were seen by the officials of Nafu, and from then on, they did not dare to be disrespectful to Jin Fei and Jiang Fugui, even if they felt that these two people did not learn and did not know how to do it, but they still flattered and stammered on their faces, and they handled everything they explained.

At midnight, all the officials went home drunk, Sun Zhaoyuan also drank a lot, and Jin Fei carried Sun Zhaoyuan to the courtyard he had just bought next to the public office, ready to rest.

opened the door and put Sun Zhaoyuan on the bed, but Sun Zhaoyuan sat up slowly and said, "I'm not fully drunk, I still have something to ask you in my heart." ”

Jiang Fugui saw that Sun Zhaoyuan had woken up, and hurriedly went to serve tea and pour water.

Jin Fei said: "My younger brother must want to know about this Jinhe Yuhe." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Exactly." Although the affairs of other state capitals are also important, they are not worth mentioning compared to this golden river and jade river, if I want to complete the errand assigned by the saint, this Ziyuan government is the top priority. ”

Jin Fei said: "I've been here for a few days, and the situation here is generally clear. What Zhang Wencai, the river envoy who reported to you about the Jinhe and Yuhe rivers in the hall today, actually deceived his younger brother. When I first came here, I asked him this, and he replied the same. But I quietly disguised myself to go to the river, and saw the river workers digging, and happened to see one of my fellow villagers, and I invited him to the restaurant to eat and drink on the same day. It turned out that these river workers, in addition to the monthly salary, Zhang Wencai also gave them ten taels of silver each, so that when they dug jade, they just pretended not to know and walked away, and they didn't need to ask about the rest of the matter. These river workers have benefited, and naturally they are the only ones. The guards on the shore also benefited, and at night, they pretended that there was no one on the river, and let the poachers come by boat from the downstream to take away the gold and jade that had not been picked during the day. I only heard rumors before, and I know probably. Now that I happen to know my fellow villagers, I know the specific means. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "This Yao Yungui is really careful in doing things. The river workers do not make efforts to grind foreign workers, just dereliction of duty, but do not break the law, the guards are also patrolling at night, but the river is wide, it is night, the vision is not clear, there are occasional omissions, it is also reasonable, those digging boats, but whenever the court sends people to raid, just throw the gold and jade back into the river, it destroys the evidence, you can say that they are passing merchant ships. Each link is interlocking, and those who can come up with such thoughts are really talented in individuals, but it's a pity that their minds are used in crooked ways. I think that the tricks of accumulating money in other state capitals are all from Yao Yungui, otherwise how could other people have such thoughts. This Yao Yungui, from a small doorman, has changed to become a political envoy of a state, so it seems that he does have far beyond ordinary people. ”

Jin Fei asked, "What should Jiang Fugui and I do now?" ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "You two are familiar with these officials, and then make plans." ”

On the second day, Sun Zhaoyuan wanted to go to the place where gold and jade were mined to check on the spot. All the government officials went to accompany them.

When they got out of the city, they traveled twenty or thirty miles, and finally came to the place where the wealth of the world was held in one place.

But seeing the two rivers like a giant dragon, surging from east to west, the cement and sand of the Golden River rolling, the water of the Jade River, but green and pleasant, finally in an open place, mixed together, continue to gallop westward, the river surface is vast, the river surface is two hundred zhang wide. There are thirty or forty big ships on the river, the bottom ore and sediment are scooped up with a net, the net mouth is very small, can only leak water, can not run sand, the river workers on the boat, will check the ore and sediment, whether it contains gold and jade.

And Luyang Mansion is backed by Longmai Mountain and is adjacent to the Jinhe River and Jade River, surrounded by living water, valleys and peaks, verdant forests, and surrounded by mountains and waters.

Sun Zhaoyuan since he knew Nu Mingshu and knew the fate of Feng Shui, he would also read the feng shui theory from time to time, and sighed in his heart: "No wonder the self-established emperor was able to unify the world, there is gold and jade here, it is an excellent pattern, surrounded by two major rivers in front, and the dragon vein mountain in the back, the whole pattern, the dragon vein mountain is like this imperial chair, and the two big rivers will give away the world's money, if the feng shui here only recognizes the second, then no feng shui dares to recognize the first." In the feng shui yin and yang, pay attention to sit in the north and face the south to combine the yin and yang, this road yang mansion is the head resting dragon vein mountain, pedaling the golden jade river, the dragon vein mountain in the north, the golden jade river in the south, the mountain belongs to the yang and the water belongs to the yin, such sitting in the north and facing the south pattern, yin and yang harmony, extremely blessed and extremely expensive, no wonder in ancient times to fight for the world, all to Yunxi Prefecture as the first priority. If I find a tomb here in a hundred years, maybe in a few lifetimes, my descendants will also produce an emperor. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan played for a long time and asked for a long time, and the situation of the two rivers gradually became clear.

That night, he stayed in Ziyuan Mansion for another night, and drank another banquet with the local officials, expressing his favor to the local officials, and also establishing prestige for Jin Fei and Jiang Fugui.

The next day, I went back to this Luyang Mansion. Yao Yungui had received news from his confidants in various prefectures and counties, so he did not welcome Sun Zhaoyuan back to his home at the boundary of Luyang Mansion. It's just that the front foot just heard that Sun Zhaoyuan returned to the governor's compound, and the back foot took Li Hua to visit Sun Zhaoyuan.

As soon as Yao Yungui saw Sun Zhaoyuan, he smiled and said, "Lord Sun returned to the house, and he didn't welcome him, don't be surprised." I prepared some small gifts to wash the dust for Lord Sun. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan and Yu Yinqiao were in the courtyard, and when they saw Yao Yungui come in, they took the gift box, and said with a smile: "Lord Yao, I just arrived, and you came in a hurry, it's really better to come early than to come by chance." Come on, come on, please be seated. "Tell your servants to bring tea.

Yao Yungui said: "All the way, Lord Sun was tired of traveling and driving, and I heard that the non-stop work was completed, and the inspection of these four prefectures was completed in less than half a month. I don't know if Master Sun is satisfied with this trip? ”

Sun Zhaoyuan immediately understood that Yao Yungui came to find out what he thought of the officials of Yunxi Prefecture. If at this time, anyone who says one is not good, or even says that one is acceptable, I am afraid that Yao Yungui will have to be careful with himself in his heart.
