Kong Shouzhen's ability is really good. During the few days when Zhao Fuxiang was not at home, he arranged things clearly. Zhao Fuxiang was relieved after asking about it again.

Zhao Fuxiang had been running around all day today and had to get up early tomorrow. After listening to Kong Shouzhen's report, he was about to go back to the back house to sleep. Zhao Fuxiang had just stood up when Kong Shouzhen said: "My boss, there is one more thing. Mother Wu from Cuiyun House sent a message yesterday.

, let my boss go there when he has time!"

Zhao Fuxiang has been extremely busy these days. After dealing with the refugees, he still had to discuss the purchase of pig iron with Li Zhengdao, so he did not go to Cuiyun Building for five or six days to relax. Now that he heard that Wu Ma actually wanted to see him, Zhao Fuxiang came and asked with interest: "

What? Mother Wu misses me?"

Zhao Fuxiang has always been jealous of Mother Wu, but Mother Wu really doesn't like this fat man who weighs more than 200 kilograms, so she used to be lukewarm towards Zhao Fuxiang. Now Zhao Fuxiang heard that Mother Wu actually sent a message to see him, and he said happily:

"It seems that Mother Wu was moved by my infatuation and wants to go to Wushan with me!"

Kong Shouzhen didn't understand why his employer was so obsessed with Mother Wu, who was born a bitch. Logically speaking, Zhao Fuxiang's eldest wife, Mrs. Sun, was pretty good-looking. Apart from being too tall and not in line with the aesthetic standards of the Ming Dynasty, her appearance was still good! Even Zhao Fuxiang

The left hand touching the right hand has lost its freshness after so many years, but Wu’s mother is also quite tall and still so old. I really don’t know what Zhao Fuxiang likes about Wu’s mother?

Although Kong Shouzhen didn't want to care about Zhao Fuxiang's affairs below his belt, tomorrow was the important day to unite with the squire. Kong Shouzhen had been working on this matter for half a month, and he definitely didn't want to ruin his own because of Mother Wu, a bitch.

Hard work.

"My boss, we have made an appointment with the gentry tomorrow, so we must not make any mistakes!"

Zhao Fuxiang knew what Kong Shouzhen was worried about. Although Zhao Fuxiang made many mistakes on the lower body issue, he would never joke about important issues. Zhao Fuxiang smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, I know the severity. Let's go out of the city together tomorrow morning!"

After Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, he got up and went back to his room, tidied up a little and went to bed. He was very tired these days, so he had no intention of going to Cuiyun Building to take care of Mother Wu's troubles.

Early the next morning, Fan Jian came over to wake up Zhao Fuxiang, and after having dinner with Kong Shouzhen, they rushed to Dongcheng Pier.

The Nandu River on Hainan Island is the largest freshwater river on the island and the only inland river on the island that can be used for shipping. Seventy miles away from Qiongzhou Prefecture is Ding'an County, which is connected to Qiongzhou Prefecture by waterway. The Nandu River turns around at Ding'an.

To the west, several important passes were set up here, such as South Lidu, West Lidu, Zengjiadongdu, Xizidu and other anti-Lebanese strongholds, which tightly blocked hundreds of thousands of Li people in the mountains.

All logistical supplies depended on transportation along the Nandu River, so shipping on the Nandu River was still very busy.

In the past, it was the boat gangs who monopolized shipping across the Nandu River. Whether they were foreign or local merchants, if they wanted to sell goods in Li District, they had to hire boat gangs as sailors or sailors. However, a few days ago, the boat gangs in Qiongzhou Prefecture did not know why they were so crazy.

I want to learn from the rogue bandits to rebel, and contacted the rebels of the White Lotus Sect to overthrow the rule of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, this act of turning back the clock on history will not succeed. Under the joint attack of the local government and the guards, the boat gang's attempt was ruthlessly crushed.

, naturally the ending of the boat gang bosses will not be easy. I heard that they were all arrested and waiting to be executed by Queen Qiu.

The handling work at the Nandujiang pier is now handed over to the Tiandihui. This newly emerged guild charges reasonable fees and will compensate for any loss of goods in proportion. In this way, the merchants in Qiongzhou Prefecture will soon forget about the previous shipping gang.

.

Some merchants opened early today, and I found a high platform set up on the pier. A group of helpers from the Tiandihui were busy on the side. Someone with good intentions came up to ask what happened. I heard from Tiandihui that today

A colleague from the government is coming and wants to attend some kind of kick-off meeting. The merchants don't know what he means, but they don't want to delay their own business anyway, and they are happy to watch the excitement.

When the crowd gradually grew on the pier, members of the Tiandihui set up a red banner on the high platform, with white paper stapled on it and writing on it. The people watching below didn't know what the words were, so they found someone who could read.

Only then did he realize that it was written in big characters "Qiongzhou Prefecture Refugee Autonomous Federation Launching Conference!"

We all know what these words mean when taken separately, but we don’t know what they mean when put together. What does autonomy mean? What does United Society mean? While these people were guessing at random, a few small sedan chairs came out of the city.

Arriving at the edge of the pier, someone with good intentions saw the figure coming out of the sedan chair and said quickly: "Stop talking, Mr. Liu is here. He is the president of the city's chamber of commerce!"

When the people behind came out, someone immediately recognized him and shouted, "Look, Yang Juren is here too. Doesn't he have bad legs and feet? Why is he here too?"

As more and more people came, the people watching the excitement found that these people were all big figures in the city. In addition to the presidents and heads of various chambers of commerce, there were also official officials, registered candidates, gentry and village elders, without exception.

He's a big shot.

Just as the people were talking about it, a luxurious four-person sedan came to a stop in front of the high platform. When the people in the sedan came out, the people immediately recognized that this old man was the great-grandson of Hai Rui, Hai Qingtian, the most wealthy family in Qiongzhou Prefecture.

Yuan Zong is here.

Haiyuanzong is the eldest son of Haishuzu. Historically, Haishuzu lived until the first year of Hongguang in the Southern Ming Dynasty. Now this guy is about to die. He has been lying in bed for several years. All the affairs of the Hai family have been handed over to his legitimate son Haiyuan.

Zong is in charge, so Haiyuan Zong can also be regarded as the de facto person in charge of the Hai family.

At this moment, two official sedans arrived at the same time as the sedan chair of Haiyuanzong. Those who came out were the prefect Zhou Shuguang and his fellow magistrate Cai Sichuncai. Seeing Mr. Zhou coming, Haiyuanzong hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

: "Mr. Zhou, students are polite!"

The tradition of the Hai family is that they are not very good at studying. Hai Rui did not take the imperial examination until he was in his forties.

Hai Yuanzong, the fourth generation of the Hai family, although his knowledge was not very good, at least he passed the exam and became a scholar, so he did not embarrass the Hai family.

Hai Shuzu smiled and said: "Please get up quickly, Zhilu. How about Hai Gong?"

Mentioning his father, Hai Yuanzong quickly said: "My father is in good spirits these days. When the students came, my father also asked the students to obey the teacher in everything!"

After Hai Yuanzong finished speaking, he saw Cai Sichun behind him and quickly saluted: "I have seen Brother Lunshan!"

Hai Yuanzong is about the same age as Cai Sichun, but compared with others, he is much inferior. However, compared with Hai Rui, who does not know how to deal with relationships, his great-grandson Hai Yuanzong is much smoother. Cai Sichun's teacher is

Huang Daozhou, although the Hai family is considered a figure in Hainan, it is far behind the real aristocratic families on the mainland.

Cai Sichun smiled slightly and returned the courtesy: "Brother Zhilu came early!"

Hai Yuanzong smiled and said: "That Zhao Fuxiang came to see my little brother with Brother Lunshan's name badge. How dare I not come?"

After hearing this, Cai Sichun secretly cursed Zhao Fuxiang for using his name indiscriminately, and explained with a smile: "Zhao Fuxiang came to me half a month ago and said that he had a way to deal with the refugees outside the city, so I gave him the name!"

Mingla represents a person. If Cai Sichun didn't have an unusual relationship with Zhao Fuxiang, how could he be allowed to use his own name? Neither Hai Yuanzong nor his father, Hai Shuzu, are fuel savers. Looking at Cai Sichun's appearance, they don't want to tell the truth.

So I didn't ask, I just laughed about it. However, Hai Yuanzong probably guessed what was going on. It must be that Cai Sichun wanted to raise donations from major families, so he did this.

When Cai Sichun first came last year, the major families had already donated some money and food. It seemed that now the major families were bleeding again. Hai Yuanzong thought that since he was here, he should donate some food.

While several people were talking, a fat guy came down from the high platform. When he saw Zhou Shuguang and Cai Sichun coming, he quickly smiled and said: "It turns out that Mr. Zhou and Mr. Cai are here. Zhao Fuxiang is really late to welcome them!

"

Seeing Zhao Fuxiang coming, Zhou Shuguang smiled and introduced him: "Zhilu, this is Zhao Fuxiang and Zhao Jinliang! You can call him brother!"

Hearing Zhao Fuxiang's nickname Haiyuanzong, he didn't laugh out loud. That idiot got him a cousin name? Isn't this a natural attraction for hatred?

After Zhou Shuguang finished speaking, he also explained: "Zhilu, you should be as close as possible. Jinliang's sworn brother is Zhang Junfeng!"

Hearing Zhang Junfeng, Hai Yuanzong immediately turned from ridicule to jealousy. This guy was able to sworn sworn brothers with Zhang Junfeng. Doesn't this mean he has a relationship with the Donglin Party? No wonder this fat guy was able to get Cai Sichun's name. It turned out to be

this relationship.

Because Zhang Wenming admired Hai Rui very much, Hai Yuanzong pretended to have a sworn relationship with Zhang Wenming and said with a smile: "It turns out that he is Brother Wupo's virtuous brother, so of course he is also my younger brother! Brother Jin Liang is here, please

Be bowed to by my little brother!”

After Hai Yuanzong finished speaking, he was about to kneel down and salute. Zhao Fuxiang quickly supported him and said: "We are all peers, so there is no need to salute! Everyone is here, please come to the stage!"

Zhao Fuxiang accompanied the three people to the high platform. At this time, the high platform was already full of people. When these leading figures in the city saw that the prefect and fellow magistrates were coming, they quickly stood up and saluted and greeted each other. Everyone was noisy for a quarter of an hour before they all

Take a seat.

Zhao Fuxiang was today's host. When he saw everyone had come, he stood up and walked to the front of the podium. A member of the Tiandihui held a large wooden speaker as a loudspeaker. Zhao Fuxiang looked at the crowd standing below.

He took out a piece of paper from his arms and read loudly: "I declare that on the tenth day of February in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen's reign in the Ming Dynasty, the launching ceremony of the Qiongzhou Prefecture Refugee Autonomous Federation will begin!"

After Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, someone started to set off firecrackers, creating a lively atmosphere. After the firecrackers were set off, Zhao Fuxiang then said loudly: "In the past year, under the correct leadership of the prefect Zhou, the whole Qiongzhou Prefecture has

, Under the escort of Tongzhi Cai, and with the effective supervision and strong support of all the ministers and officials in the city, the whole government has taken protecting people's livelihood and promoting development as the program and improving people's living standards as the foundation, and conscientiously implemented the policies of all ministers.

The spirit of important instructions, maintaining strategic focus, adhering to bottom-line thinking, and strengthening confidence in victory have laid a solid foundation for the comprehensive construction of high-quality development of New Qiongzhou, so that all people can live a peaceful and happy year, live and work in peace and contentment!"

After Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, he looked down and saw that the Tiandihui had already arranged dozens of stakes below. Under Zhao Fuxiang's instructions, they began to applaud desperately according to the arrangement. Some people even shouted: "Master Zhou is a good official! Master Cai is
Chapter completed!
