On the dock of the magic circle in Shimen Town, Sheng Bokai had a burst of fire, and arranged for the government soldiers and sailors to send several fast warships to the lower reaches of the Lanjiang River to find the whereabouts of the Maria frigate.

And when Su Ye saw Sheng Bokai just now, he was able to accurately tell Cao Shizhang's guilt, he knew that Sheng Bokai had been sending people to keep an eye on him, which made him remind himself that he should always be more careful in the future.

After arranging the affairs of the Maria, Sheng Bokai turned to his smiling face and said to Su Ye: "Brother Yuankui, after noon, you can send someone to take over Cao Shizhang's industry." Don't you want to open a mine, the imperial court is very strict with the supervision of iron ore, in this Cao Shizhang's industry, there is a coal mine with a large stock, and it is said that there is an iron mine that he opened privately, and you can collect these together. ”

Su Ye had learned everything about Cao Shizhang in detail through the Black Tiger Gang in Shuangjiang City before, how could he not know that this was Sheng Bokai, who had partnered with Cao Shizhang earlier to make a living, and now, he just let himself cooperate with him.

So, Su Ye, who knew it, hurriedly thanked: "Lord Xie Fu Yin's cultivation, please rest assured, after I take over these industries, the official taxes paid here will only be more than before." ”

Sheng Bokai heard Su Ye allude to this, how could he not understand the truth in his heart, he patted Xu Yuankui's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Haha, do it well, I believe in your brother's ability, he will only do it better than him, if there is any difficulty, you just have to mention it." Sheng Bokai, who was in a better mood, expressed his complete support for him at this time.

Su Ye took the opportunity to say: "Lord Fu Yin, if you want to say that it is difficult, I think there are really some. As you know, my lord, the world is now unstable, there is a constant famine in northern Xinjiang, displaced people are everywhere, and now, bandits and water bandits are becoming more and more rampant in various places. The strength of this Jiangyun's defense against it is obviously insufficient. ”

Su Ye paused for a moment, and saw Sheng Bo nodding knowingly.

Su Ye continued: "And what we are transporting in the river now is mostly disaster relief grain and strategic materials from the imperial court, and we can only rely on sending more dart masters to protect them. And now that there are more mine protection and mine transportation, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have more escort forces to protect the integrity of these minerals and materials. ”

Sheng Bokai thought for a while, and immediately said: "This is easy to do, I appoint you as the army in my house, and under the command of Luo Kui, the commander of the Wuning Navy Army, he will be appointed as a naval captain, who can lead 5,000 soldiers and ten united front ships." In the future, if you can manage your northern trade to the point of admiration of the world, you can also assume the position of the lord of the Shuangjiang merchants. ”

These titles given by Sheng Bokai made Su Ye very happy, and he hurriedly thanked him: "Lord Yin of Xie Mansion is promoted!" He understood that as early as the Yin Dynasty a thousand years ago, the staff mechanism existed, and now, such as the royal palace, the governor, the general's office, etc., they all have the right to choose their own subordinates. Some important job titles, such as military advisor, military service, and chief bookkeeper, have been fixed.

And as one of the important positions of the bureaucracy, he joined the army. This is in the northern Xinjiang war and turmoil, the military is particularly important, is the staff who can participate in military activities, generally with a military name, referred to as joining the army.

Yin Sheng Bokai, the governor of Shuangjiang City, was the highest local governor in northern Xinjiang, and his state government structure was basically the same as that of the bureaucratic system of the ancient assassins. In addition, one more governor's office was set up, and its assistants generally carried military horns, which led to the situation that each feudal official of the Great Xu Dynasty had two sets of teams.

Su Ye understood that the reason why Sheng Bokai gave him this official position was nothing more than to let him get more money for him, but he could also get more benefits from it, how could he not like it.

Seeing Xu Yuankui so happy, Sheng Bokai thought that his goal of encircling him had been achieved, and in the end, he explained a few things and left with his entourage.

According to Sheng Bokai's request, Su Ye arranged for Xu Ji'an and the housekeeper Zhuo Yuanfu to take over Cao Shizhang's industry.

He went through the entry procedures and got a letter of appointment signed by Sheng Bokai, an official uniform and a tooth tag that can prove his official status.

When Su Ye received Xu Yuxue's transmission and learned about the situation of the Peng family in Xin'an City, Su Ye thought that this opportunity was rare, so she asked her to turn the people of the three major families she had captured into soul slaves, to confiscate and change all the assets of the three of them, and send them to the newly received coal mine to dig coal.

At this time, at the gate of Peng's courtyard in Xin'an City, Peng Anlan, who was already in the Jindan Realm, had already arrested all the people brought by the other three families, how could he easily let go of these three families.

In the courtyard of the Peng family, in the face of the bitter begging for mercy of the heads of the three major families, Fu Junda, Mo Chen and Han Haoxuan, he said mockingly: "Hehe, you are afraid now, you want to reconcile, you started by partnering to poison me, not only did you unite with Jinting to intercept and kill my Peng family, went to the northeast to enter the timber son, and set up a gambling game to deceive my grandson, to this day, you still want to destroy my Peng family, have you ever thought that there will be today's end, have you ever thought that this retribution will come so quickly?" ”

Next, according to Su Ye's instructions, he asked Xu Yuxue to use her Ecstasy Illusion Attack Technique to sign a blood contract soul seal in their sea of consciousness, turning all these people into soul slaves.

Then, let Peng Wenfu take Fu Junda, Mo Chen, and Han Haoxuan, the three heads of the family, to go through the procedures for changing the family property, on the surface, it was still a small number of soul slaves left by the three heads of the three families to operate, Fu Bin, Mo Lixuan, and Han Yanbin, the three sons, what they claimed to the outside world was that these three people took people to trade in other places. In fact, together with others, they were sent to the coal mine newly received by Su Ye to dig coal, and Xu Yuxue took out a part of the soul slaves with cultivation and strength according to Su Ye's arrangement, and served as the guards of the mine and the Xu family's compound.

In this way, Su Ye not only has the Mo family's grain and salt trade, but also the Han family's textile, cotton, and cloth trade, as well as rich money, wine, casinos and other industries, plus the Peng family's shipbuilding and river transportation trade, it can be said that he is already the invisible king of the entire Xin'an City.

Su Ye knew from Xu Yuxue that after Xu Yuxue subdued these soul slaves, the reason why the Mo family was able to operate the salt industry was because the current household department Shangshu was a member of the Mo family, and the reason why the Peng family was coveted and framed was because someone from the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court secretly asked the Han family to do it.

Every day, he and Peng Yuanwei followed their grandfather to learn shipbuilding technology, and soon became the third generation of shipbuilding rookies of the Peng family after Peng Anlan.

With the support of Su Ye's funds and timber resources, it didn't take long for the Peng family to deliver half of the ships built in the dock to the buyers who had received the deposit, and the Peng family's business situation turned into a profit.
