Chapter 83 First Arrival in Quanzhou

"What? No money again?" Sun Yu felt dizzy for a while. He was not afraid of anything but running out of money.

"There are only three months of salary left, and my subordinates dare not touch it. These days, all counties have paid a lot of money, and mines and craftsmen's workshops have a lot of expenses." Each county is following Sun Yu's idea to build a building.

There is also a pigsty in the house, and the water channels are also being repaired, which all cost money. A lot of people have been added to the mines and craftsman camps, and they are working day and night. The early construction of Jianpu City, such as water channels, roads, etc., requires a lot of investment.

But these cannot be sold and can only be included in the house price. Once the house is fully raised and sold, you will definitely make money, but now we are encountering difficulties.

"Go to the bank and borrow some more." Sun Yu had no choice but to take away his own territory. He couldn't defeat the Qingyuan Army and Yue State either. If he couldn't take it, he could only borrow it.

"We have borrowed a lot, sir. Didn't your Jianzhou Trading Company make a lot of money?" Xu Yi came up with the idea of ​​Sun Yu's Jianzhou Trading Company. It only has two items: ironware and cement. This Jianzhou Trading Company

I made a lot of money.

"Public is public and private is private, how can they be confused?" Sun Yu said angrily. Jianzhou Commercial Bank paid money to purchase goods, and all the money it earned was deposited in banks for loans. In fact, banks currently don't have much money left, and most of them are

After the loan was issued, most of the people who came to the bank to deposit money were Jianzhou Army soldiers. Ordinary people were still willing to hide their money, but they could not trust the bank.

"Then there's nothing I can do, hey, I'm afraid I can only wait a little longer." Since there is no money, there is no way to mobilize the power of the people. The Jianzhou Army can only find a way to burn bricks and tiles on its own, and the speed is slow.

Much slower.

"Sell off-plan houses and sign a contract. Calculate when each house will be completed and sign a delivery date. Make the sand table more beautiful, find a few skilled carpenters, and make a model for them to see.

Buy with a sandbox." There is no other way but to sell off-plan. Although this is not good, there is no other way. The construction of Jianzhou cannot be delayed. Although it was sold before it was completed, it was almost completed after all.

The materials are all available and can be completed soon, but now there is nothing.

"Is this possible? Sir, seeing is believing, paying with one hand and delivering the goods with the other hand." How can this be done? Just look at a model and hand over hundreds or thousands of taels of silver to you? Only a fool would agree.

"Why not? The contract is clearly written. If you are not satisfied with the house within one week after the handover, you can check out and all the purchase money will be refunded." Now that there are not enough houses to sell, naturally some people are willing to buy them in advance, as long as there is a guarantee.

"Then go down and give it a try." Xu Yi then thought about it. If he could check out, it should be possible. Sir, you have a big idea.

Sun Yu shook his head, and he had no choice. The good Jianzhou Army has now become a construction team. I am afraid that the masonry knife is easier to hold than the long sword. Wait a little longer, and when the construction of Jianpu City is almost complete, it is time to start

It’s been a training camp, if it continues like this, it might be useless.

"My lord, my lord." After a while, Xu Yi came again.

"Sir, what are you doing again?" Sun Yu was interrupted again and had no choice but to come out.

"There is someone coming from Quanzhou. Here is a letter from the Song family." Xu Yi thought to himself, I don't want to either, I have to do all this nonsense.

Come and deal with it. You are a governor. When you don't stay in the yamen, you work as a teacher every day and stay lazy in this state school.

"Where is the person who sent the letter?" Sun Yu opened the letter and saw that it was indeed a letter from Song Wumian, the son of the Song family. There was his private seal underneath, so he thought it was written in his own hand.

"I'm waiting at the government office."

"I have important matters today. You will study on your own and conduct random inspections tomorrow." Sun Yu returned to the classroom and gave instructions, then picked up his books and walked towards the governor's office.

When he arrived at the Governor's Mansion, he communicated with the person who sent the letter and confirmed that it was a letter from Song Wumian. As for the content in his heart, he, an errand boy, had no way of knowing.

"Sir, what do you mean by the Song family?" Sun Yu handed the letter to Xu Yi. Song Wumian only said that next month, which is September 15th, the King of Jinjiang will have an heir, and there will be Jinjiang in a few days.

The king's people came to invite him. He hoped that he could go there in person. He was eagerly waiting for this in Quanzhou.

"It seems that some of the big clan leaders want to have further contact with you. I think it is a good thing. You can go to Quanzhou to have a look. After all, we are neighbors. There is no harm in getting to know each other better. King Jinjiang invited me this time. I must have

Don't worry about safety." Xu Yi knew that Sun Yu was peeking into the south again, so since he had the chance, he might as well go and take a look.

"That's fine, but I need to bring more capable manpower. After all, it's not my territory. Then Chen Hongjin probably hates me to the core and can't give him a chance." If Chen Hongjin sees that he has few people, he might have bad intentions.

"That's natural. Have you thought about how to deal with those big families?" Xu Yi was also a little excited. Jianzhou had just settled down and began to look south to Quanzhou. The speed was too fast.

"As long as the soldiers and armor are sharp." There's not much fuss, just go and show your strength by yourself. As long as you are strong enough, it will be easy for them to join you.

On September 13th, the city of Quanzhou was already bustling with activity. The King of Jinjiang passed away and decided to have fun with the people. The city was full of joy and people were coming and going.

There was a sound of horse hooves, and the surrounding pedestrians gave way and stopped to watch.

The first person is holding a long spear, a long bow on his back, and a sword hanging on his waist, just like a young general. Followed by two people with strong backs and strong waists, holding a large ax on the left, the ax blade shines dazzlingly in the sun, and the other one holds a sledgehammer.

They were all dark-skinned. Behind them were two groups of young cavalry, wearing light armor, all with spears and crossbows. They were Sun Yu and his party.

"Whose soldier is this? It's so majestic." A young man looked at the cavalry passing by and felt envious. This aura was too powerful.

"I heard he's from the north. He probably came to the palace to attend a banquet." The middle-aged man next to him knew better.

Sun Yu ignored the crowds around him and headed directly towards the post house. There were still two days before the banquet, so he first went to the post house to settle down, and then went out to see if Quanzhou City was as rumored.

When they arrived at the Yiguan, Sun Yu handed over his name card and his own staff arranged for them to check in.

"Hey, sir, this is much better than our place." Cheng Zhenbei exclaimed as soon as he entered the courtyard. Quanzhou's wealth is really not just casual. The entire courtyard is paved with stone slabs, rockeries and running water are all available, and even the railings are

The finest mahogany is carefully carved by skilled craftsmen.

"The maritime trade is developed and it has not experienced war, so it is incomparable. The King of Jinjiang has managed this place well, but he may have to make wedding clothes for others." The biggest weakness of the King of Jinjiang is that he has no heirs.

He adopted one and sent him to Jiangning as a pledge. In these troubled times, how can we maintain our inheritance?

"Everyone put on their casual clothes and let's go out for a walk." Since we are here and have nothing to do, why not take a walk around the city and experience the local customs. The group immediately changed out of their armors, put away their weapons, and just walked

Wear casual clothes and go out with a sword.

"Master Governor, aren't you having dinner in the post house?" The postmaster saw that they were about to go out. It was almost dinner time, so he naturally wanted to ask.

"Let's go out to eat at noon, do you have any good recommendations?" This time, Xu Yi paid a lot of money when we went out, and Sun Yu also became rich. A poor family has a rich life.

"Sir, you can go to Wanghailou. The seafood there is the freshest, but the price is higher." Yi Cheng knows Quanzhou well. Many officials and wealthy businessmen have come recently, and there is an endless stream of guests at Wanghailou.

"Let's go to Wanghai Tower." Sun Yu asked for the route, and a group of more than 20 people set off directly towards Wanghai Tower.

"You two, how is this boy?" When Sun Yu entered the city just now, Song Lian, the head of the Song family, took the two heads of the Qi family and the Liang family to a nearby restaurant just to observe him privately.

"Brother Song, this guy is extraordinary, I think it's feasible." The head of the Liang family, Liang Fu, nodded. The army was in good order, and the two generals on the left and right were both good at charging into battle. Even though there were only about twenty people here, with them

With their equipment and strength, there are hundreds of people, and there is no way they can be defeated.

"Brother Song, do you want to take a look again?" Qi Zheng felt a little guilty. After all, Chen Hongjin was not someone to be trifled with, and the King of Jinjiang was still alive, so he did not have a daughter to become a princess.

"How can we succeed if we are hesitant?" Liang Fu was quite dissatisfied. Qi Zheng usually seemed to be successful, but how could he fall behind at the critical moment?

"Brother Qi is right. We must not hesitate to do this kind of thing. If we want to do it, we should do it sooner rather than later. The more preparation we have, the more chance we will win. If we don't do it, we should do it sooner.

Go and surrender to the Chen family, and then bring some people out to see how big the appetite of the Chen family is. You can't just sit back and wait for death." Song Wumian understood Qi Zheng's thoughts well, and he did what he wanted to do.

If you don’t have the determination, you have to add some fire yourself.

"I can't give in to that donkey Chen Hongyue, so let's do this." Qi Zheng, who was hesitant at first, suddenly made up his mind when he thought of giving in to Chen Hongyue. Originally, he was the second child in the Qi family, but now he is being

Qi Zheng refused to accept the forced squeeze.

"Okay, since you two have made up your mind, I will send a message to Wu Mian and ask him to contact that person." The three heads of the family must not contact Sun Yu privately. That is a big taboo. After all, the King of Jinjiang

He's still alive. But Song Wumian is different. As a young man, it's normal to make friends, not to mention business contacts. Speaking of which, the cement is really a good thing. When it arrived last time, it was sold out immediately.
