Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

After hearing what Fang Zhenghua said, Huang Degong was stunned.

My nose suddenly started to feel sore:

His Majesty was reassured that he would not tell anyone, and even purchased the grain directly from him at market price...

What Huang Degong did was not honest!

Why did he get on Zhu Yousong's ghost ship!

Huang Degong gave himself a vicious slap, raised his red eyes, and was about to reject Fang Zhenghua's proposal.

Your Majesty still remembers me, how could I be such a bastard!

Huang Degong was about to refuse, but he heard Fang Zhenghua give the final word:

"This matter is settled like this, seven yuan per stone, whatever price you can get, you will get as much benefit as possible.

If you feel guilty, just do good things for His Majesty. "

Founder is very clear.

Don't look at the emotion on Huang Degong's face at this moment, he wants to die for your majesty!

However - without interests and driven only by passion, one will eventually become cold-blooded.

(Just like writing a book, people can generate electricity for love for a while, but how can they generate electricity for love for a lifetime? If it is not enough to support the family, the only way is to change jobs.)

His Majesty discussed this issue with him very seriously, and then offered benefits to win over the people he could. At the very least, he would not let them switch to his side. At the very least, he would be a neutral person, which would be a great gain!

……

Huang Degong suddenly remembered another question:

“Governor, even if we get some food together, we still can’t transport it to Nanyang!”

Fang Zheng ignored him and thought to himself.

Huang Degong had no choice but to continue:

“Such a large amount of grain trading cannot be transported by land.

That consumption is too great!

If we take the boat, there are two other ways.

One line turns back to Sanjiangying, turns into the waters of the Huaihe River, and transports grain to Runing (Xinyang).

Then take the land route, cross the mountainous area, and transport it to Nanyang.

Not to mention that this road is very expensive, the section next to the canal is really difficult! "

(Since 1194, the Yellow River broke through the south bank embankment, took over the tributaries of the Huaihe River, and entered the sea through the Huaihe River estuary. During the Ming Dynasty, after treatment, the North Yellow River [Old Bohai Estuary Road] was almost dry.

Until 1855, the Qing Dynasty's control of the Yellow River was ineffective, and the Yellow River once again washed away the embankment on the north bank and entered the Bohai Sea.

It is known in history as the incident of seizing the Huai River and entering the sea, which lasted for 661 years. )

Huang Degong shook his head, neither the land route nor the Huaihe River was the best choice!

He frowned and said:

“Apart from these two roads, the only other option is to take the Yangtze River. After arriving at Wuchang Three Towns, turn north and take the Han River Waterway.

This road is a channel that can pass large ships.

After the boat arrives in Xiangyang, transfer to a small boat costing 200 yuan and take the Tangbai River to Nanyang!

This is the most economical and affordable road! "

Huang Degong glanced at Fang Zhenghua and saw that the old governor was obviously listening, so he had to continue:

“However, the general’s territory can only extend westward to Wuwei!

Further west, the Jiujiang section is the seat of Governor Yuan Jixian. His territory extends to Jizhou, Huguang (the generation of Huangmei and Huangshi, Hubei).

To the west of Governor Yuan was Jianghan controlled by Zuo Liangyu.

Well, these two people still have a bit of love, so I think they can be convinced if they spend more words.

but!

Even after passing through Zuo Liangyu's territory, Bai Wang and others still occupied Xiangyang and other places! "

Huang Degong said with a sad face:

"Governor, this food is bad luck!"

Only then did Fang Zhenghua speak:

"Don't worry about transporting food. I'm just asking you, can you get a boat?"

"Can can!"

Huang Degong nodded hurriedly:

"Zheng Zhilong's cousin Zheng Zhifeng from Fujian Province was the same Zheng Hongkui who passed the imperial examination in the ninth year of Chongzhen's reign.

He became the Zhenjiang navy!

Isn't he stationed in Zhenjiang? "

Fang Zhenghua Qi said:

"I remember, isn't this man in Nanjing, serving as the commander of the Imperial Guard?

This guy is the proton that the imperial court asked the Zheng family for. When did he lead an army on his own? "

Huang Degong had no choice but to explain:

"Just a few days ago, His Majesty... Prince Fu ordered him to be the commander-in-chief of the Navy, stationed in Zhenjiang, and titled General Zhenhai..."

"Ha ha!"

Fang Zhenghua sneered and said angrily:

"madness!"

"This man was originally a pawn used by the imperial court to contain Zheng Zhilong, but Zhu Yousong actually gave him real power...

Really confused! "

Fang Zhenghua was angry and Huang Degong was shocked.

He wiped away the cold sweat and explained:

"Ruan Dayue, Ma Shiying and others competed with the Donglin people in the court, causing chaos in the court and the public.

The Ministry of History (Shi Kefa) had no choice but to allow Zheng Hongkui to be stationed in Zhenjiang in order to balance the court..."

"This is also a fool!"

Fang Zhenghua sneered.

How stupid!

Stupid to the extreme!

At this time, where is the need for balance?

The ruling and opposition parties must directly support one side and kill the other side with a big knife, so that the situation can be completely stabilized!

At this time, you, Shi Kefa, a man who sticks to his word, do not want to cut the knot with a quick knife, but you are here to make peace with the mud?

Lying in a groove!

talent...

No wonder His Majesty said that it would be difficult to achieve success in the Fu Dynasty Hall, and he was determined not to come to Jiangnan...

as predicted!

In Nanyang, His Majesty, as he said, he started from scratch and took back the entire Nanyang Basin from the intruders!

And Zhu Yousong's court could only fight among themselves!

This Jiangnan is indeed a fire pit!

Huang Degong saw that the old governor cursed and said nothing further. He was obviously waiting for his explanation, so he continued:

"Zheng Hongkui came to me and wanted to form an alliance with me..."

Fang Zhenghua waved his hands, not bothering to listen to these nonsense things, he said directly:

"How many ships does Zheng have?"

Huang Degong hurriedly replied:

"There are more than 50 warships, and there are more than a dozen warships equipped with more than a dozen cannons.

If you count the walking boats, centipedes, lucky boats, sand boats, clippers, etc., Zheng Hongkui has more than 200 boats in total! "

"Ok!"

Fang Zhenghua pondered: "It's barely enough."

He opened the drawer under the desk, took out a stack of banknotes, and handed it to Huang Degong:

"There are 3000 taels here, all of which are exchanged by large merchants in South Zhili.

You went and got it yourself.

This is a deposit, no matter how much you receive, we will pay you and deliver the goods later! "

Huang Degong didn't dare to pick him up. Fang Zhenghua glared:

"Just take it if you are told, how can you act like a bitch!

Why, after staying in this rouge nest in Jiangnan for a long time, your Huang Chuangzi’s eggs have also shrunk? "

Huang Degong had no choice but to apologize obediently and reached out to take the banknote.

Fang Zhenghua frowned.

When he came to Jiangnan, His Majesty asked him to bring 1000 taels of cash and three boxes of treasures, with a total value of about 10 taels.

Good as his start-up capital.

However, your Majesty is in desperate need of money, and this is when he needs money.

As someone close to His Majesty, and someone who was promised to take charge of Dongchang and Jinyiwei by His Majesty, how could he, Fang Zhenghua, take His Majesty's money?

Therefore, he only took 500 taels as travel expenses.

Along the way, he asked his sons to visit several large family houses at night...

Only then did we have over [-] starting credits!

However, buying a courtyard, arranging subordinates, and some other odds and ends in this wealthy nest in Jiangnan...

That's all he has left!

What should I do with the final payment for buying grain?

Fang Zhenghua had a headache.

Angry!
