Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

It was discovered that the poisonous roads of Shu were not really controlled by the imperial court, and many barbarians were exploiting them at all levels, which made Ma Di very unhappy.

You must know that there are few trade routes to foreign countries, and its trade sales are even greater. Especially the Shu Shen Poison Road to the west leads to southwest India, and the oil and water are even more terrifying.

This is tantamount to an important lifeline for Shu Han, who has been facing financial difficulties.

Moreover, the reason why Nanzhong lags behind is because the local area is poor and has no oil and water, and the central government does not pay much attention to this area.

But Ma Su knew very well that not only could the Shushen Poison Road in Nanzhong be profitable, but the copper mines in Yunnan could also bring huge financial gains.

Mineral resources have been a huge source of tax revenue for the feudal dynasty since ancient times, especially copper mines, which were the raw materials for coinage during the Shu Han period. As long as there are sufficient copper mines, it will be no problem for Shu Han to fight an economic war with Cao Wei.

After all, although the direct hundred-money trade system is now relatively complete, it is still not as good as the five-baht coin of the Eastern Han Dynasty because the copper ore is not heavy enough.

So Ma Di conducted an on-site inspection and studied the local road conditions, and quickly made a reform plan for Nanzhong. This involved recruiting manpower from Shu to build roads in Nanzhong after the Northern Expedition to Guanzhong, and at the same time hiring local barbarians to mine and trade grain.

One of the important changes was Ma Di's suggestion to move the administrative seat of Nanzhong from Jianning County to Yunnan County.

Seeing Ma Su busy writing, Guan Yinping stepped forward to take a look curiously, and suddenly raised his eyebrows.

"Moving the administrative office from Jianning County to Yunnan County? I'm afraid Governor Li won't agree, right?"

Li Hui was the governor of Nanzhong who previously succeeded Xiang Chong. Now he was sent to Nanyang to appoint the governor of Jingzhou. Their family's surname was Ma Su in Jianning County, Nanzhong for generations. This move may very well turn into burning bridges in Li Hui's eyes.

"These plans were made after the Northern Expedition and are not implemented immediately. And I will personally explain it to De'ang. I think he doesn't want the Li family to always be just a big name in Nanzhong." Ma Di waved his hand and didn't take it seriously. expressed,

"But don't be lazy, Miss Guan, all this is your task."

"Okay...wait?" Guan Yinping replied subconsciously, but suddenly felt something was wrong, and looked at Ma Di with a bit more confusion.

"Yes, it's you." Ma Di smiled, patted Guan Yinping's shoulder and said.

"Miss Guan San, whom Nanman admires, may also be the next Governor of Nanzhong."

"ah?"

"So the Crown Prince, do you suggest that Governor Li Yi's widow, Guan Feng, take over the position of Governor of Nanzhong?"

Back in Chengdu, Ma Su submitted this suggestion, which instantly aroused extremely strange looks from the entire Shangshu table.

"That's right, Guan Feng Yinping has a good reputation in Nanzhong and is used by all the barbarians. However, the imperial court is currently short of talents and can no longer send governors to Nanzhong, so Guan Feng is the most suitable candidate." Ma Su spread his hands and said calmly replied.

In fact, he could feel that there was a high probability that this suggestion would not be accepted. Although women in the Han Dynasty could serve as officials, they were limited to those serving the court.

Not to mention the Han Dynasty, women have not been allowed to hold positions of real power in local officials such as county magistrate, governor, and governor since the Zhou Dynasty. This tradition that has lasted for hundreds of years has basically been finalized and it is basically impossible to change it.

So Ma Su also proposed to give it a try, but apparently the reverse was too strong.

"Prince Taifu, do you know what you are talking about?" Fei Yi couldn't help but stand up and asked, looking at Ma Su with a bit more suspicion.

Didn't your kid want to be a thief after going to Nanzhong and seeing Guan Yinping?

Do you also want to kill the three sages with one blow?

"I'm just proposing a suitable candidate. Is there a better candidate at least now?" Ma Di spread his hands frankly and explained calmly.

"Director Lu and Governor Li, as long as they can return to Nanzhong, they won't need my advice, right?"

Ma Su's rhetorical question did make Fei Yi silent for a moment. In fact, there was indeed no one available now. Due to a serious shortage of manpower, Shuhan had already pulled out all the personnel that could be recruited.

If Fei Shi hadn't died of illness last year, he would have been forcibly dragged out to work now.

However, although Guan Yinping is indeed the most suitable candidate, it is obviously impossible to appoint a female governor no matter what. Even if Fei Yi and Jiang Wan nodded, most officials would not be able to accept the truth.

However, Ma Su has always recommended quality and quantity over the years, and only those he recommends can definitely use it. So after thinking deeply, Fei Yi suddenly asked,

"Youchang, do you think it's feasible to let Guan Shizhong take over Nanzhong?"

"Guan Xing? You really don't let anyone go." Ma Di suddenly thought of the attendant Guan Xing.

Guan Xing suffered from asthma and was unable to engage in strenuous exercise, so he could only hang out as a palace servant. However, his condition has improved under Hua Fei's treatment in recent years, but he is still being transferred outside.

This time, Fei Yi didn't even let Guan Xing go. Was he already so hungry that he couldn't choose what to eat?

"Guan Xing and Miss Guan Feng are brothers and sisters, and their relationship is not bad. Letting Guan Shizhong temporarily serve as the governor of Nanzhong in name will also be conducive to Guan Feng's performance." Fei Yi spread his hands and shook his head helplessly.

"This is the best way... It's really torturous to do things at the Chancellor's desk. I just dare to offend people."

"Since Wen Wei has this idea, let's do it. After all, His Majesty trusts you very much." Ma Su smiled like a thief, looking gloating.

Speaking of which, he is also a civil servant, and he can do a good job if Shangshu Ling asks him to do it. But this position is very tiring and lacks passion, so Ma Su is not willing to do it.

Fei Yi was very dissatisfied with Ma Su's gloating about his misfortune. Why should I implement the plan proposed by this guy every time? The final result of the execution was that the first result was to get out of here.

But thinking about Ma Su's performance on the battlefield, Fei Yi felt relieved again.

"Forget it, I'll just handle this matter for you. Go to Nanzheng as soon as possible and prepare to participate in the Northern Expedition." Fei Yi waved his hand and turned to leave, but after thinking about it, he looked at Ma Su with an incomprehensible expression.

"But Youchang, you directly proposed Miss Guan San as the governor at the Chancellor's desk. I'm afraid it will damage your reputation if you wear it out."

"What do you think, do you have a crush on Guan Yinping?"

"Guan Yinping is indeed capable, I'm just giving you the best choice." Ma Di shrugged, disapproving of this.

"But if the rumor spreads, it will have a bad impact on Miss Silver Screen's reputation." Fei Yi shook his head and said.

"So what you mean is..."

"When Miss Yinping's funeral is over, I'll go find Guan Shizhong to ask for you." Fei Yi showed a smile and looked at his clerk.

"Asshole!" Ma Su waved his hand, not really caring.

"But there is no point in saying this. Let's think about it after the Northern Expedition. Maybe I will die in Guanzhong this time..."

"Go away, the only one who can kill you Ma Su is God!"
