With Luo Zhengrong's drunken words, Zhang Zhongjun realized that although this little official Luo Zhengrong held the power to purchase 50,000 taels of silver a year, he could not use up this power. Many times, the superiors would forcibly require him to purchase some junk at the highest market price.

However, although he was frustrated, as long as the person who gave the order was still there, he could hold his position firmly and get more or less money from it every year.

But the hard work is that he dare not do anything random, because once he does something random, not only those who are eyeing him will immediately jump out and bite him, but even his backer will destroy him. Because this is equivalent to stealing the profits of the backer.

However, this time his cooperation with Zhang Zhongjun was a transaction under the banner of formality. As long as Zhang Zhongjun's wood is good and purchased at market prices, no one can say anything. Even his backer will not say anything, because wood like Zhang Zhongjun is one of the procurement tasks, but it is also the least profitable one.

Luo Zhengrong cried and said that a nephew who was backing the mountain, he brought nearly a hundred camphor trees cut from nearby hills, and he also had the same annual camphor trees as the ones that were born in the year, which was only 30,000 taels per piece. It was actually said that it was a golden nanmu, worth 10,000 taels per piece. He blackmailed 10,000 taels of silver.

Fortunately, it was the nephew of the backer who was doing it, and the backer pretended to scold his nephew and endorsed it. This made the superiors and subordinates move out some money to repurchase 100 real golden nanmu to make up the account. As for the money, it was a mess of making fake accounts and other things. The superiors and subordinates were full of resentment at that time.

Zhang Zhongjun blinked his eyes and couldn't help asking, "Brother, how much does our Great Chen Dynasty earn in a year?"

Luo Zhengrong, who was already drunk, said casually: "The tax is not much, it is only 300 million taels. However, many important and profitable industries are in the hands of the government, so our Chen Dynasty is not short of money. As long as you have a way, it is easy to make a fortune of one million taels."

"But it's a pity that small officials like us have no way of doing anything. Even if they see the way, they are not qualified to share money! So brother, our business must be done for a long time! Whether you can achieve success in the future depends on you!" Luo Zhengrong said as he patted Zhang Zhongjun's shoulder.

"No problem, I'm more looking forward to the long-term business!" Zhang Zhongjun first patted his chest and then asked curiously: "By the way, brother, have you ever heard of the White Lotus Sect's recent uprising?"

"Haha, you know too? Oh, right, your Shuilin District is just adjacent to Shanzhou Prefecture and Meiyuan Prefecture. Haha, the White Lotus Sect is about to uprising in Meiyuan Prefecture, Shanzhou Prefecture, and Jiezhou Prefecture. The common people below don't know. How can we officials not know? Not only are our officials, but even those gangs also know that the forces of the Sanyun Gang have long left Shanzhou Prefecture and Jiezhou Prefecture." Luo Zhengrong smiled disconcertedly.

Zhang Zhongjun felt desolate, damn it, all the officials knew it? But it was because he knew that Fengwutang and the Sanyun Gang had reduced the power and wealth of the three palaces that he analyzed that the White Lotus Sect was going to rebellion in these three palaces! Is he blocked the news by the officialdom? Or was he abandoned? At least the government did not communicate with him, and Yide Palace should communicate with him, right? Has he failed in his life as a human being?

And he was so fucked. Judging from Luo Zhengrong's tone, both the government and the gang didn't care about the fact that the White Lotus Sect was going to ravage the countryside of the three prefectures!

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help asking, "Brother, aren't you worried that the White Lotus Sect will attack Magong Town?"

"What? Take action against Magong Town? Hahaha, give Bailian Sect nine courages, they dare not attack Magong Town! That's right, even if Bailian Sect dares to attack Shanzhou Prefecture City, they dare not attack Magong Town!" Luo Zhengrong said proudly.

"Ah? Brother, aren't you talking drunk? You said that the White Lotus Sect dare not attack the city, which is normal. But they actually said that the White Lotus Sect dare not attack the city and did not dare to attack the Magong Town? Are you kidding? The rebel professionals will not even fear the entire Chen Dynasty, but they need to be afraid of a mere town?" Zhang Zhongjun asked deliberately with his tongue.

"Haha, brother, you don't know anything. The White Lotus Sect is raging in the towns and offends only the local tyrants and wealth in the countryside, and may not even offend them. Because these days, the local rich people in the countryside have moved into the city with their family wealth. Have you seen that the market in Magong Town is more prosperous than last time? It is because all the landlords and wealth in them have moved in."

"Even if the White Lotus Sect breaks through Shanzhou Prefecture, it will only offend the provincial officials. It will make the provincial capital angrily mobilize soldiers to suppress them in advance. This is normal. But if they dare to move Magong Town, hehe, our Magong Town has shops of various powerful people in the southeast region, and even the shops of all princes here. The shipyard is even more terrifying. I don't know how many maritime wealthy families are involved. So if the White Lotus Sect dares to move Magong Town, haha, it's impossible for the White Lotus Sect to truly perish!"

"So brother, please trade with me with me with peace of mind. Even if the entire Guangnan Province is in chaos, Magong Town will be as stable as Mount Tai!" Luo Zhengrong patted Zhang Zhongjun's shoulder and shouted proudly.

Zhang Zhongjun was a little surprised. The White Lotus Sect Mobilizes Magong Town is in danger of real destruction? This Magong Town, which is near the sea, actually has a prince's shop? This is really unimaginable!

"Uh, brother, is Magong Town so awesome? I always thought that only the provincial government of Guangnan Province would be so awesome!" Zhang Zhongjun said in a pretentious manner.

"Gaga, Guangnan Prefecture is just a convenient place for the provincial government. If you really want to talk about interests, the annual turnover of Magong Town is definitely no less than that of Guangnan Prefecture. Unfortunately, most of the profits have been taken away, but the little bit of the benefits left behind are awesome. Otherwise, you have seen several towns that have county-level city walls and officials?" Luo Zhengrong smiled again.

"Uh, what about taking profits for Mao? If those profits are preserved, it would be possible that Magong Town can become a big port. At least the port here has a very advantageous position, and the Wenlong River is large and wide and connects many places." Zhang Zhongjun said casually again.

"There is no way. The big head is under the control of the princes. Your highness wants to take it away. What are the solutions in the local area? And he also took the others to treat this place as a profitable transit place. I don't know when and when will Magong Town become a big port!" Luo Zhengrong said with emotion.
