Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 232 232 The reaction of the forces of all parties

After reading the letter, Mu Yu's expression became serious.

It was less than half a month since she became the lord of the city, and Zheng Cheng, who was far away in the southern capital, knew about it, and it was terrifying to think about it after deducting the time for traveling back and forth.

Perhaps before she became the lord of the city, Zheng Cheng had noticed her when she was purchasing food and goods from outside, and even more accurately deduced her situation in Huangsha City, and wrote this letter at this time.

It has to be said that Zheng Cheng was able to sit on the position of the number one imperial merchant with sufficient means.

In this letter, except for the question at the beginning, the rest of the content is dry stuff, how to control a city, how to deal with people who have different opinions, how to eliminate dissidents and get in the position smoothly, how to manage a city to maximize its potential...

She read the letter carefully, and decided to take the essence and discard the dross, keep the useful methods for her own use, and ignore the harsh and cruel ones.

With these methods, she will be able to manage Huangsha City better, which is very important in the early days of her power.

Originally, she wanted to catch up with Yang Shuang after reading the letter, but after reading the letter, she completely lost her previous mood. After Yang Shuang left, she immediately wrote back.

The main content was to thank him for some of his suggestions, half-truth and half-false about the current situation, and finally said to send him [-] catties of grain, and asked if the previous business was going well.

Yes, the main thing is to use this batch of grain to gag Zheng Cheng's mouth.

It's like giving a sweet date with a slap in the face, um, give a handful of sweet dates with a cold face?
In short, it is to be cold on the one hand and show favor on the other, not to follow his wishes, but not to make the relationship stalemate.

After dealing with these things, she was filled with emotion. Zheng Cheng got the news so quickly and wrote a letter. Presumably other forces will get the news soon. I don't know how they will react.

……

Speeding up the horse, Mu Yu's reply was quickly delivered to Zheng Cheng in Jinzhou.

Zheng Cheng received the letter, saw what Mu Yu meant at a glance, and immediately snorted coldly.

He kindly gave advice, but she didn't appreciate it?

I thought she was a smart person who could tell what was good and what was bad, but she didn't want to be a mediocre person.

Think you can do whatever you want with money?
He felt that his methods were cruel, and he wanted to be kind and caring for the people, heh, he had seen more than one such idiot, and now there was going to be another one.

If it was someone else, he wouldn't even glance at him, he would just kick him out and take over the property when he fell into disrepair, but this person is a fool...

He frowned and paced back and forth in the study, thinking of a suitable solution.

If the few businesses he cooperated with her were kicked out of her, they would not last long. He would not give up such a big benefit and such a bright prospect.

For the sake of profit alone, he can't ignore her.

What's more, there is Wen Wang.

Wen Wang obviously has a deep-rooted affection for her. If he wants to keep Wang warm, he has to protect Mu Yu, at least for the time being.

Wen Wang is the person he chooses to be loyal to.

People who would be troubled by love are not in his choice, but apart from this point, Wen Wang has no shortcomings. Everything is the appearance of his ideal master. Looking at the whole Southern Qi, there is no one more suitable to support than Wen Wang people.

A nearly perfect person, the only shortcoming is a woman, so this is more or less acceptable.

In particular, he knows that Wen Wang's ambitions are quite large, and the choice of Jiangshan and beauty may not appear.

Forget it, although Mu Yu is a bit naive, he is not those idiots in Nandu, even if he can't do his best, it is still no problem to defend Huangsha City, just wait.

After clearing up his mood, he became the No. [-] Emperor Merchant who planned his strategies lightly and calmly. With Mu Yu's reply, he went to find the third princess and Wen Wang.

He came to Wenzhou from the southern capital a few days ago, and the third princess followed closely behind, obviously also aware of the clues of Huangsha City.

Sure enough, when he arrived, the third princess was drinking tea with Wen Wang at Wen Wang's place, and she looked at Wen Wang with loving eyes.

After all, the third princess is indeed Wen Wang's elder, his cousin.

"It's a coincidence that you came here, quickly take out the letter, and let us see what's going on in Huangsha City."

The third princess laughed.

Zheng Cheng sent the letter, the third princess and Wen Wang looked at it together, no surprise expression appeared on their faces, instead they nodded repeatedly.

"Wang'er's guess is absolutely right. Since that's the case, we don't have to worry about Huangsha City. Instead, we should celebrate. We have another help in our camp!"

"It's not difficult for Sister to defend Huangsha City, but if she is deliberately targeted, it will still have an impact. I want to ask my aunt for help..."

"Wang'er don't worry, there are only two people who have spare energy and may threaten Huangsha City. I will go and say hello."

"Well, thank you, aunt."

Zheng Cheng stood aside, feeling like an outsider, but there was nothing he could do, the matter was a foregone conclusion.

He chose Wen Wang to continue his wealth and status for the next few decades, and Wen Wang chose the three princesses to check and balance him.

Maybe he was thinking too much, Wen Wang just wanted to better achieve their goal.

……

Bazhou, Ling Mansion.

"Du'er, what do you think about the matter of Huangsha City?"

"What does father think?"

"For my father, I think it's better to wait and see for a while. Judging from the current news, the new city lord is not a rude and cruel person, but there is too little news, so I can't judge more. Let them pay attention for a while."

After what happened before, Ling Du has quickly matured, and his resourcefulness and scheming are far beyond before, and he has the intention of replacing the military advisor.

"According to the businessmen who came back, Huangsha City is now absorbing disaster victims. Fourth Uncle once went to Huangsha City to carry out a mission. If Fourth Uncle led people to lurk in, the information obtained in this way would be more credible and practical. "

"Your fourth uncle narrowly escaped death that time. His health was broken, and he has already retired. He should just enjoy life, and let him risk his life to do things. It's against the rules, and I can't say that."

"Father, I think Fourth Uncle will agree. Last mission, Fourth Uncle left a knot in his heart..."

General Ling was silent for a moment, then heaved a long sigh, and said, "Then go and try."

"Yes."

On the same day, Ling Du went to an ordinary house in Bazhou, and stayed for an hour, and the house was empty at night.

……

Dongzhou, Chengwang Mansion.

"Your Highness, a letter from Nandu."

As soon as he came down from the martial arts arena, King Cheng waved his hand casually, "Put it aside, don't disturb this king's interest. It doesn't matter whether you read or not the letters of those old people in Nandu."

"Your Highness, it was written by the third princess."

King Cheng paused, grabbed the letter and opened it to read it. After reading the letter, he frowned and asked, "Huangsha City has a new city lord?"

"This, this subordinate doesn't know! This subordinate immediately go to inquire!"

"Forget it, don't need to inquire, it belongs to Third Sister. Huangsha City is of no use to me, since Third Sister asks, just give it to her."
