Chapter 409 Sending Message
With the arrival of the New Year, all things come to life.
The situation in Baise City has finally stabilized.
Su Hanchu and Jun Moye will discuss important matters of Baise City in the Council Building of the City Lord's Mansion every three days.
With the support of a constant influx of money, Chuye Academies were soon established in various counties.
The Bai Se Army and the Black Armor Army also became more organized under Su Lichuan's training. After all, Su Lichuan was a general in the past.
Su Hanchu also asked Ping'er and Jiang Like to lead people to help the people of Baise City reclaim more wasteland, plant rice, and raise rice fish. He also sent the cultivated rice seeds and rice seeds to the people of Baise City for free.
With the spring planting and autumn harvest, the wheat fields are covered in golden waves. The ripe wheat ears hang heavy and drooping, and the people of Baise City are busy harvesting the wheat with sickles in hand.
They bent over and cut the wheat ears one by one, and then piled them neatly aside.
The sun was high in the sky, illuminating the earth. Sweat streamed down the faces of the people, but their faces were filled with happy smiles.
Because they can really survive and have enough to eat. The newly appointed city lord also said that they don’t have to pay taxes for three years, and they don’t have to live in fear and hunger like before.
City Lord's Mansion.
Jun Moye and Su Hanchu are playing chess.
Since the two of them settled down in Baise City, they often played chess in their spare time, and Su Hanchu's chess skills also made great progress.
At this time, Jun Moye's black pieces were surrounded by white pieces, and Jun Moye joked while holding the black pieces in his hand.
"The Lord City Lord's chess skills are becoming more and more sophisticated. It seems that I am about to lose the whole game again."
Su Hanchu picked up the teacup and took a sip of the scented tea.
"I have to thank my husband for letting me go. My life is so peaceful nowadays that it's a bit boring."
Jun Moye dropped the black piece in his hand.
"Does the City Lord have any new ideas?"
Su Hanchu thought for a moment before speaking.
"I want to set up a world-class escort agency. Our caravan has always provided us with great convenience, whether it's transporting goods or sending messages. Now that Baise City has stabilized, there are more and more caravans coming and going, but currently our caravan's range of activities is still Tianyuan and Baise City.
If we improve our fleet and turn it into an escort agency for transporting goods or people, perhaps our agency could travel to all the countries in the world, and our people could go to the escort agencies and infiltrate various countries. In the future, we would also be able to grasp the changes in various countries."
After hearing this, Jun Moye's eyes flashed with admiration and he nodded.
"Madam, this is a brilliant plan. Not only can we expand our sphere of influence, but we can also gather intelligence from all over the place. However, the establishment and management of this escort agency will probably require careful planning."
Su Hanchu smiled slightly and said confidently.
"I have a preliminary idea for this matter. We can start with Baise City and the surrounding areas, recruiting some capable and reputable warriors to form a team of escorts. At the same time, we will establish strict rules and regulations, send our new people to manage it, and also arrange for some of the secret guards trained by Qinggu to enter the escort agency to ensure its normal operation."
Jun Moye interjected.
"Yes, this method is good. Merchants traveling back and forth, especially those traveling from one's own country to another, need even more protection from manpower and material resources. Although we have screened a group of talents through the imperial examination, there are still many people who wander around the world and make a living by their martial arts skills. Now that we have established an escort agency, those warriors will have a job. In addition, does Madam have any ideas for a name for the escort agency?"
Su Hanchu thought for a moment and said.
"Let's call it 'The World's Number One Escort Agency'. It's both impressive and memorable."
Jun Moye nodded after hearing this.
"Who is Madam going to appoint to be in charge of the escort agency?"
Su Hanchu pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"Protecting an embassy means mingling among the various states in the martial arts world, and more importantly, observing the rules of the martial arts world. He Jiuzhou and He Jiuxin are both good in martial arts, but they lack in meticulousness. So, I'll add another person, Zhou Sui'an, and let the three of them take charge. Together, I plan to open up the business road between Dayan and Jiang State."
After hearing this, Jun Moye looked at her.
"So you set up the escort agency for two purposes. The first is that the escort agency's mission should be to assist those sent to Dayan and Jiang State to open shops. The second is to allow the escort agency to take on missions and earn money in the future."
Su Hanchu nodded after hearing this.
"Liu Ling and Concubine Li are already capable of handling matters on their own. Arrange some people around them, and it shouldn't be a problem for them to develop in Dayan. Using Baise City as a base, cultivate new seeds such as rice, corn, and soybeans, and then use the escort agency to sell them to various countries. The Baise Army has all kinds of people, so we can select those who are good at accounting and business and send them to Dayan and Jiang State to open stores."
Jun Moye agreed after hearing this.
"Indeed, there are some disciples from large families in the Bai Se Army who were once bandits and have gone astray. It would be nice to let them out and explore the world for a while."
Upon hearing this, Su Hanchu looked at Jun Moye and spoke hesitantly.
"Aye, everyone from the Jun and Su families has been brought to Baise City. Even the second and third branches of the Su family have settled down in Baise City. We don't have to worry about anything anymore. When are you planning on returning to the Imperial City?"
When the word "Imperial City" was mentioned, Jun Moye's heart sank for a moment, and then he spoke slowly.
"I'm also wondering when is the best time to go back."
Su Hanchu spoke thoughtfully.
"Aye, we can't take the initiative to go back, at least not openly."
Jun Moye spoke thoughtfully after hearing this.
"I remember you said at the beginning that Shen Luoxue had contact with the Qian family in the Imperial City and told them some things about our northwest."
Su Han Chuxin nodded slightly.
"It's highly likely that Qian Zexi is still sending people to investigate us, but they're probably doing it in secret."
Upon hearing this, Jun Moye raised his hand to add tea for Su Hanchu and spoke.
"Maybe we can ask the Qian family to do us a favor."
Su Hanchu picked up the teacup after hearing this.
"Oh? What good plans do you have, my husband?"
Jun Moye looked at Su Hanchu and spoke.
"Of course, I'm sending some news to the Qian family. I'll have Qinggu reveal some information about our Baise City. Do you think anyone would be nervous knowing that we have 200,000 soldiers under our command in Baise City?"
Su Hanchu laughed when he heard this. As expected, high-end hunters also appeared as prey.
"Given his suspicious nature, he'll definitely get nervous, and then he'll probably have to ask us to go back."
