Chapter 34 Running around

Putting his heart in mind, Ruan Phucbao immediately understood what his younger sister meant and asked about the details of Zhou Shixiong's plan again. It is necessary to understand the plan thoroughly to facilitate negotiations with the owner of the three prefectures.

Among the three prefectures, the Taiyuan Prefecture is the most interested in Beizhe Prefecture, because the northern border of Taiyuan Prefecture is connected to Beizhe Prefecture, whether you get Benson or Kuikun, you will be directly included in the territory of Taiyuan Prefecture, and there is no difficulty in management. Guangning Prefecture's interest in Beizhe Prefecture is about zero. The two places are separated by one Lang Sang Prefecture. Obtaining land in Beizhe Prefecture is equivalent to an enclave. It is not only difficult to manage, but it is difficult to provide help if there is a problem. The most important thing is that Guangning Prefecture does not lack fertile land, only people who farm.

It is said that the fertile land in Guangning Prefecture should be easy to attract refugees, but in fact, the population of Guangning Prefecture is smaller than that of Lang Sang Prefecture, with a total of less than 80,000 households and a large area of ​​fertile land is uncultivated. The reason for this dilemma is directly related to the hundreds of miles of coastline of Guangning Prefecture. Half of the boundaries of Guangning Prefecture belong to the coastline, and they are hit by at least six typhoons every year. The highest mountain range in the mansion crosses the junction of Lang Sang Prefecture, which does not help Guangning Prefecture at all.

Wind disasters bring about floods. In this era of extremely weak disaster resistance, not many people can withstand endless natural disasters. Therefore, even if the refugees settled in Lang Sang Mansion, they would not come to Guangning Mansion to try their luck. Except for half of the mountain barbarians, most of the remaining in Guangning Mansion were seamen who made a living by fishing. Neither of these two people made a living by farming, so the impact of wind and floods on them was great.

Among the three prefectures, Beijiang Prefecture is the most embarrassing. Zheng Lisheng supports Lang Sang Prefecture in order to find helpers for his throne. In theory, he should stand on the side of Lang Sang Prefecture under any circumstances. However, a letter made Zheng Lisheng silent. This was a handwritten letter from King Ping An Zheng Du. In the letter, Zheng Du did not say anything about brotherhood, father and son human relations, only the big words "I am not dead yet". Zheng Lisheng was frightened by these four words and hid in the mansion and did not dare to go, for fear that Zheng Du would send someone to kill him. As for the ally of Lang Sang Prefecture, his life is the most important thing.

In order to show sincerity, Ruan Phuc Bao did not send anyone to ask the owner of the three governments to Lang Sang Prefecture to discuss the auction, but went to the three governments in person. The owner of the Guangning Prefecture Chen Rien was originally a descendant of the Chen Dynasty. Xuan Zu Chen Rizhuo seized the rule of Guangning Prefecture when the Mo Chao rose. It was a hundred years since Chen Rien. Chen Rien was in his fifties and ruled Guangning Prefecture for nearly thirty years. He was a rare long-lived person in the Chen family.

Regarding Nguyen Phuc Bao's proposal, Chen Ripen reacted coldly, and he wanted to obtain population rather than land. Nguyen Phuc Bao has been neighbors with Chen Ripen for so many years, understands the needs of Guangning Mansion, and throws out the bait that had been prepared long ago. "As long as my uncle helps my nephew raise the price, my nephew is willing to give 30% of the income to my uncle."

"Oh, tell me." The two families are neither of the same clans nor have they married or not. It is just that since Nguyen Phuobao took over Lang Sang Mansion, Chan Rie-ne has never caused trouble for Lang Sang Mansion. Therefore, Nguyen Phuobao is very grateful to Chan Rie-ne's kindness and respects him every time he meets.

"I can't figure out whether Zheng Lisheng wants the land of Beijin Mansion or not, but Fan Gandhi of Taiyuan Mansion is definitely interested. If Zheng Lisheng doesn't want it and his uncle has no intention of bidding, the two places will be taken away by Fan Gandhi, and his nephew will never be willing to accept it." Ruan Phucbao was heartbroken about Chen Ripen, and he had no politician quality at all. No wonder he was always bullied.

"Okay, Van Gandhi is too stingy. I'm happy to help if I have the chance to cheat him." Chen Ripen didn't like Van Gandhi because Van Gandhi's ancestors were also the lord of a country. The Fan family was once the royal family of Chameng Kingdom died a hundred years earlier than the Chen Dynasty. The descendants of the two dynasties looked down on each other for various reasons and did a lot of trouble. This is why Nguyen Phuc Bao was confident of convinced Chen Ripen.

After dealing with Chen Rien, Nguyen Phuo did not return to Lang Sang Mansion and entered Beijiang Mansion directly from Guangning Mansion. The lord of the mansion came to pay a visit in person. Zheng Lisheng couldn't hide, so he received Nguyen Phuo in a low-key manner. Nguyen Phuo threw out his plan, and Zheng Lisheng was overjoyed. He was afraid that Zheng Du could still control the Shenglong Mansion. If his actions were too great, it would bring danger, but Lang Sang Mansion would have to make trouble. This account would not be counted on him at all. Of course, he had to support him.

"Mr. Ruan Phuc is just a clear statement, and I can do nothing more than that." Zheng Lisheng was thinking about the throne of King Ping'an, and his eyes were looking at the entire Vietnamese territory. He would not care about one or two towns. Not to mention that Ruan Phuc asked him to pay for the money to buy it, he would not even ask for it.

"Mr. Zheng is polite. Xiaguan knows that Mr. Zheng will not take this little thing seriously, but Xiaguan hopes that Mr. Zheng will not let Van Gandhi take advantage of it." Ruan Phuc Bao played himself as a hard worker who was forced to sell land, and Van Gandhi is the advantage of Qiong. If Zheng Lisheng didn't help to scrape more silver, he would not do it. There were two trusts in an auction involving four companies, both for one Qiong. Fan Gandhi, the owner of Taiyuan Prefecture, should have changed his name to the villain.

"It's a small matter, but I hope Lord Ruan Phuc will show mercy and don't offend Lord Fan, it will not do you or me." Zheng Lisheng has a strong overall view and it is necessary to win over Lang Sang Mansion, but he cannot abandon Taiyuan Mansion in order to win over Lang Sang Mansion. This is not in line with the balance strategy of the superiors.

"The officials know the right position. No matter how you say that Lord Fan is kind to the officials, you cannot be an ungrateful person." Ruan Phucbao understood that Zheng Lisheng's words made sense. If he really annoyed Van Gandhi in order to save money, it would not only violate the original intention of this auction, but also give the enemy a chance. This is not what he should have done.

Both of the mansion owners in front were easy to serve, but Cun Ye Fan Gandhi was not easy to fool. In order to ensure the success of the negotiation, Ruan Phucbao sent someone to Lang Sang Mansion to call Ji Hongchang, who was improving the chariot, and accompanied him to Taiyuan Mansion.

"Enjoyed father, since Guangning and Beijiang are fine, will Taiyuan Prefecture do its own thing?" Zhou Shixiong studied the test records of the chariots in the past two months in the craftsman camp and found that there were many problems that need to be dealt with. He had just solved the problem of feed supply, and there were still many troubles that had not been solved. Suddenly, he was recruited by Ruan Phuc to Beijiang Prefecture.

"Hongchang didn't know anything. Mr. Van Gandhi was smart and pragmatic, and was one of the best political experts in the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty. In addition, the Fan clan was very united, which made Taiyuan Prefecture no internal worries. Taiyuan Prefecture was governed very prosperous. Although it was only half the size of Lang Sang Prefecture, the tax was more than ten times that of Lang Sang Prefecture." Ruan Phu Bao's short words made Zhou Shixiong understand that Fan Gandhi was difficult to deal with.

"How can Taiyuan Prefecture be so powerful, why can't it take revenge?" Even Zhou Shixiong, a foreigner, knew the grudge between Taiyuan Prefecture and Xuan Guang Prefecture, and you can imagine how deep the grudge was.

"Although Xuan Guang's Mansion is not as prosperous as Taiyuan Mansion, Nguyen Phuc Shou seized the position of patriarch of his father, and the Ruan Phuc Shou in Jiaozhi must obey his orders. Except for your adopted father's branch who is not appointed, with the support of the entire Ruan Phuc Shou, how can a Taiyuan Mansion win?" Nguyen Phuc Shou looked very proud, and I don't know what to be happy about.

Zhou Shixiong wanted to understand the relationship between Taiyuan Prefecture and Xuan Guang Prefecture, and asked, "Enjoyed Father, does this Lord Fan have a grudge against Ruan Phuc himself or the entire Ruan Phuc family?"

Ruan Phu Bao squeezed out a smile and looked abnormal. Zhou Shixiong felt a little sad, thinking that he would not be able to do so? "It should be that the Fan family and the Nguyen Phuc family had a grudge. When the Fan family ruled Chameng Kingdom, they were defeated by the Nguyen Phuc family. The revenge of destroying the country should be considered to be the head of the Nguyen Phuc family." It was a very complicated relationship. Van Gandhi had grudges with Nguyen Phuc family, and Nguyen Phuc Ball had grudges with Nguyen Phuc. In principle, Nguyen Phuc Ball had grudges with Van Gandhi.

"Champong Kingdom? Is it the Chameng that produces rice rich?" Zhou Shixiong didn't know much about South Asian history, but he still knew the name of Chameng rice. It is said that it is one of the most important rice and rice species in the entire Eastern world.

"That's right, this is the place." Perhaps Ruan Phucbao didn't want to talk about too much hatred between the two tribes, and followed Zhou Shixiong's topic and went further and further. Zhou Shixiong was very sensible and chatted with him, not asking related questions.

Taiyuan City is three days away from Beijiang City, and it can be reached in two days and one night. When we arrived at Taiyuan City, Zhou Shixiong thought that Van Gandhi would give Nguyen Phucbao a warning to his enemy, but he didn't expect that Van Gandhi would go out to greet him in person, which was much more polite than Zheng Lisheng.

Van Gandhi was about forty years old and looked similar to Van Gandhi. He was almost the same as a half-bald and short person, but his nose was not that tall and his skin was dark, like Van Gandhi in the negative version. Zhou Shixiong looked at Van Gandhi impolitely. It looked so similar. How could he look like this?

"Mr. Ruan Phuc, who is this?" Zhou Shixiong's impolite behavior was caught. After Van Gandhi greeted Ruan Phuc, he asked casually.

"I won't pay my respects to Lord Fan." Ruan Phucbao first pretended to scold Zhou Shixiong, and then said with a smile, "Mr. Fan, this is my newly adopted son Ji Hongchang, I don't know the rules. Please don't blame Mr. Fan."

"Last year, I heard that Lord Nguyen Phuc was happy about Zhang, why did he accept his adopted son in another surname?" Van Gandhi attached great importance to his bloodline and could not understand that he accepted his adopted son in another surname.

"Oh, there is no worries about this matter. Hongchang once saved his sister's life. I accepted him as an adopted son as a reward." There was nothing to hide from others about Ruan Phuc Bao's acceptance of Ji Hongchang as an adopted son, so Ruan Phuc Bao naturally told Ji Hongchang about Ji Hongchang.

"So that's the case, but I deserve it." Van Gandhi glanced at Ji Hongchang, gave a very vague evaluation, and no longer paid attention to him. Zhou Shixiong was relieved. To be honest, this Van Gandhi made him feel like he saw the head of the zoo, which was the feeling of being disgusting even though he had no mistakes. If conditions permit, Zhou Shixiong would not mind slapping him with the soles of the head of the shoe. He had fantasized about slapping the soles of the head of the shoe many times, but unfortunately he did not realize this dream until he became a time traveler.
