Chapter 396 Dingbei Road

After some inquiring, Ma Nantian finally figured out the merit monument!

Especially when I bought a copy of "Yunzhou Weekly" and learned that I had just arrived a few days late and missed such a great opportunity, Ma Nantian regretted it and slapped his thigh.

"Hey Ma Nantian, you didn't even tell me when you came to Fuming Town, do you think you treat me as a brother?!" Gu Shisan patted Ma Nantian hard on the shoulder.

Ma Nantian looked back, his face full of sorrow: "I see that you don't regard me as a brother. Why didn't you send someone to tell me about such a good thing?"

Gu Shisan poked his head and glanced at the "Yunzhou Weekly" in Ma Nantian's hand, and knew what he was talking about.

"It's not my fault! I only learned about this through the newspaper!"

Ma Nantian was still upset and rolled his eyes at him: "You don't know how to help me? Sign up? Can I send you money?"

Gu Shisan was a little dumbfounded, can this be done like this?

Fortunately, Ma Nantian also complained casually, not really complaining: "Forget it, I won't get angry with you, this careless thing!"

Gu Shisan grabbed Ma Nantian's neck and scolded him: "Who are you to say that I am short-sighted? If I were short-sighted, could I come to you as soon as your Ma family's caravan arrived in Fuming Town?"

After Ma Nantian arranged the caravan, he went to drink with Gu Shisan.

Gu Shisan invited Ma Nantian to Baiwei Restaurant, ordered four or five stir-fries, a pot of warm wine, and went up to the second floor to find a private room.

As the living standards of the people in Fuming Town are improving day by day, Baiwei Hotel has taken over the neighboring shops and launched small stir-fries and private room services, and the business is still booming.

"This cook is great! Authentic Huainan taste!" Ma Nantian took a bite and was amazed!

Taking mouthfuls of authentic dishes, he drove away the fatigue all over his body. After finishing the food, Ma Nantian touched his round belly and sighed comfortably: "It still has the taste of hometown!"

Gu Thirteen called the waiter and ordered a few more dishes and a dessert: "Come on, your home is in Wuzhou! The taste of Wuzhou is the taste of hometown!"

Ma Nantian smiled bitterly: " You don’t understand how we feel! In Wuzhou, even if you hire the most powerful cook, the dishes you make are not that good!”

Gu Shisan poured a glass of wine for Ma Nantian: “Don’t tell me, You came to Fuming Town just for a bite."

Ma Nantian drank the drink in one gulp: "Am I such a greedy person?"< br>


Ma Nantian smiled bitterly: "The fight between the wise kings and the Khans is getting more and more intense. We in Wuzhou City can't live in peace either. The plague-stricken Sang family comes to me every day, which is really annoying!"

" If it doesn’t work, you and the Ma family can come back together secretly. You are familiar with this trade route anyway!”

Ma Nantian: “If you can’t come back, your family will be detained over there! Now that our Ma family is gone, what will happen to the other people in Wuzhou City?"

Seemingly feeling that the atmosphere was too dull, Ma Nantian changed the topic: "I heard that the general put the people on the grassland together? The seven major tribes have been integrated! What a beautiful move! Take advantage of the internal fighting among the Tatars and take action when it’s time to do so!”

Gu Shisan got excited when he mentioned this. !

During this meal, Gu Shisan boasted from noon to evening. To sum up, in one sentence, the general is the boss in the world, and he, Gu Shisan, is the second in command, and those grassland Tatars are all scum of war!

Although he knew this was bragging, Ma Nantian still listened with interest.

It wasn’t until Wanjia lit candles and shops hung up lanterns that the two of them walked out of Baiwei Hotel.

"Gu Shisan, are you my brother?" Under the yellow light, Ma Nantian's expression was particularly solemn.

“Of course!”

"Then can you do me a favor?"

"What do you want to do?"

Ma Nantian said word by word: "I want to see the general!"
< br>Gu Shisan put aside his relaxed look and asked seriously: "What's the matter?!"

Two blazing fires appeared in Ma Nantian's eyes: "I also want to go to the merit monument!"


Gu Shisan took a breath and almost squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Is it because of this?" "Yes!"

Gu Shisan thought it was something. What kind of urgent military information needs to be reported secretly, and this is the result? !

Gu Shisan closed his eyes, left one sentence, turned around and left: "Get out of here!"

Swearing after scolding, Gu Shisan still did what his brother asked for.

In the Governor's Mansion, Gu Nanxi smiled from ear to ear after hearing the whole story.

Gu Nanxi said to Ma Nantian: "You said, if you want to come, just submit the post directly, and you got scolded by him for nothing! The design drawings of the bobbin truck you sent are extremely useful. Woye Town will be the winner this year. It's all installed!"

Ma Nantian smiled sheepishly, looking taciturn and honest: "It's good if it can be useful to the general."

Gu Shisan stood aside. Roll your eyes, you can really pretend!

The three of them chatted for a while, and Ma Nantian looked at Gu Nanxi longingly.

Gu Nanxi was in a dilemma: "Master Ma, it's not that I don't want to. In fact, everything has been decided. As soon as the money from each family is in place, the official road will be built! At this time, it doesn't matter which family is left behind." Okay."

Ma Nantian didn't say anything, just sat there, wiping his tears like a doormat.

Seeing him like this, Gu Nanxi felt uncomfortable.

He risked his life and came all the way from Wuzhou to Yunzhou to give money to Gu Nanxi. He didn't want fame or gain, he just wanted to donate some money to build a road.

Gu Nanxi could not satisfy him even with this small request.

Gu Nanxi looked at Gu Shisan for help, but Gu Shisan shrugged helplessly, saying that he was helpless.

Gu Nanxi pinched her eyebrows, what should she do?

Seeing that the atmosphere was well established, Ma Nantian weakly suggested: "Sir, the straight road from the south gate to the north gate in Fuming Town, why don't we leave it to the Ma family to repair it?"

This road is actually paved with bluestone bricks, but after all, many of the stones have cracked over the years, and it is not very stable for a tricycle to walk on it.

So Gu Nanxi decided to repair all the main roads in Fuming Town.

Because of the special status of Fuming Town, these main roads were not invited to bids, but were paid for by the governor's office.

Those powerful men were very coveted for these main roads, and they did not dare to ask anyone to come to Gu Nanxi to plead for mercy.

"I'm afraid..."

Before Gu Nanxi refused, Ma Nantian said: "We don't want to erect a merit monument, we just want the right to suggest naming!"

Oh my god, this right of suggestion is used to deceive local powerful people!

How can you use it to deceive your own people?

"Master Ma, please listen to my explanation..."

Ma Nantian didn't listen. He opened a wooden box next to his feet, and there were gold ingots inside!

"General, our Ma family only wants the right to make suggestions!"

Looking at these shining gold, Gu Nanxi was a little moved, but still condemned by her conscience, Decided to decline him politely.

Ma Nantian knelt down and said: "I beg the general, after hearing our naming, it will not be too late to refuse!"

"Say it!"

Ma Nantian bowed deeply, He said in a straight tone: "Dingbei Road! We want to call this road Dingbei Road!"
