Chapter 388 Return to Yunhe
Du Yu and Sima Yuan chatted for a long time before saying goodbye to each other.

Although it didn't answer all the questions in his mind, it could be heard from some words that Sima Yuan really wanted to marry him instead of having any plans.

In this way, he let go of his guard and his joy was palpable. Even the Ye family guards in the convoy could see that the new master was in a good mood.

After bidding farewell to the princess, they continued on the road, heading towards Yunhe County.

Different from when he came here, before 'Jiang Peng' only relied on his family's strength to hold a temporary position in Yunhe County, but now he has become Yunhe Marquis and a quasi-consort, and his status is completely different.

Although the size of the convoy did not change much, with their official status, they could live in the inns along the way and receive high-level reception, so the journey went very smoothly without any unpleasant things.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand. Just like a celebrity surnamed Huang that Du Yu likes in the main world said, when he became a big shot, all the people he met were good people and everyone was very polite.

A few days later, their group arrived outside Yunhe County.

Du Yu saw people lining up outside the city gate from a distance, as if they were welcoming someone important.

"Well, the important person isn't me, right?" This guy said to himself after a sudden thought.

At this moment, a fast horse galloped over.

"You dare to ask, is Mr. Jiang's team ahead?" The young man turned over and dismounted, and immediately saluted.

"I am Jiang Peng, who sent you?" Du Yu asked.

"The young one was sent by Sheriff Wang to inquire about the news. The Sheriff formed a formation outside the city to welcome Lord Jiang Hou back to his hometown." The boy said.

Du Yu felt quite happy after hearing this. He is also a layman and it is inevitable for him to be flattered by flattery. He said: "Send my regards to Commander Wang for me."

After that, the guy took out a piece of silver from his arms and gave it to the boy.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for the reward. I will go back and report to the governor now." The young man said politely.

Not long after, Du Yu led the convoy to the welcoming team, got off his horse, and exchanged salutes with the county governor Wang Jing. There were envious eyes among the crowd.

Wang Jing had received the imperial edict a long time ago and had been preparing for a long time just to close the relationship. He knew that he would have to rely on others in Yunhe County from now on, so he held a banquet at the County Sheriff's Mansion early to welcome Jiang Peng.

Du Yu is not surprised and does not want to spoil the atmosphere. He can use his identity to suppress Wang Jing but it is not necessary. Instead of tit-for-tat, it is better to 'complicit'.

After meeting Uncle Fu, he first asked Ye Ziyan and others to return to Jiang Mansion while he attended the banquet at the Sheriff's Mansion.

At the banquet, Wang Jing, the governor of Yunhe County, made no secret of his hospitality to him. This guy accepted it all shamelessly, and his words seemed to express regret for meeting him late.

After receiving each other's gifts, the two almost hit it off and instantly became 'best friends'.

After Wang Jing heard that he was planning to build a marquis mansion, he was very generous and gave him a piece of land near the Jiang family's old residence with a stroke of his pen.

Du Yu took a look, feeling quite surprised, and asked: "Brother Zixiu, if I remember correctly, isn't that Yixinfang, but there are no less than a hundred families living there..."

"Master Marquis, why is this so difficult? When you build a government office, you must have some capable hands. It is their blessing to be able to work for the Marquis Mansion. Why should they care about a mere building? Besides, Master Marquis, you can Should we build another garden outside the city? I think Xiaoshishan is good." Wang Jing said.

Du Yu was stunned after hearing this, and then said: "Thank you very much. Brother Zixiu is so generous and I will be rewarded."

After that, he took out a 200-year-old red ginseng from the storage ring.

"Brother Zixiu, this is one of the rewards I received from the Four Kingdoms Martial Arts Association. I heard that what my brother cultivates is the Fire Power, which is suitable for replenishing vitality." Du Yu said.

"I'm being disrespectful. If the Marquis has any use for Wang, just speak up. The Sheriff's Mansion will do its best," Wang Jing said.

"Brother Zixiu has already helped me, isn't it? This is how courtesy should be treated." Du Yu said with a smile.The two looked at each other, laughed in unison, and then raised their glasses to drink together.

After they had had enough wine and food, Wang Jing sent someone to escort Du Yu back to Jiang Mansion, along with the land deeds for Xiaoshishan and Yixinfang.

This guy looked at Wang Jing's gift and couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart. The feudal dynasty was decadent and decadent, and the governor decided the fate of many people with a casual stroke of his pen.

However, Du Yu was not the kind of person who bullied others and would not do anything too extreme. After accepting the land deed, he came to Uncle Fu and Ye Ziyan to discuss it.

He wants to get the land in Yixinfang through gentle means. Well, it is actually paying for it, which is equivalent to demolition in another world.

Of course, what Wang Jing said makes sense. After the Hou Mansion is built, there will naturally be people to serve them. The Jiang family didn't have many people before, so it would be quite good to take the people from Yixinfang as their own.

After Du Yu put forward the suggestion, Fu Bo and Ye Yeyan put forward some opinions, revised it and formulated a relatively reasonable plan.

After discussing the business, he went back to his room to rest.

The next day, this guy woke up early and followed the rules, led by Uncle Fu, to burn incense and worship his ancestors at the Jiang family ancestral hall.

After returning, he asked Uncle Fu to make arrangements to hold a ceremony in the Jiang Mansion to bring Ye Ziyan into the mansion.

Although Ye Ziyan is the legitimate daughter of the Ye family, she is still a concubine. There is no way for the main wife to be the sixth princess. She can only accept such a simple wedding.

After a celebration inside the Jiang Mansion, Du Yu entered the bridal chamber to accomplish good things with Ye Ziyan.

However, because Sima Yuan has not yet passed the exam, this guy has precise control over her points and does not intend to let her get pregnant first to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.

After a night of falling in love, the two went from strangers to familiarity to negative contact, and their relationship became closer.

Du Yu has always been generous to his wives and concubines. After achieving good deeds, he took out a fire lotus seed from the storage ring left by Lou Feng in the system space, let Ye Yeyan take it, and combed her meridians with his own hands. After some operations, she benefited. There are many, and there is more room for improvement in martial arts.

After staying quietly in Jiang Mansion for a few days, Ye Ziyan and Uncle Fu began to implement his plan.

Soon, Yixinfang was filled with notices, which stated that Lord Jiang planned to purchase all the houses and courtyards in the square at a high price, and also planned to recruit them to work for the Hou Mansion.

People were talking about it for a while. After asking about the price offered by Mr. Jiang Hou, they all said that the people in Yixinfang were so lucky that they could sell it for twice the market price.

Daqian, a member of the feudal dynasty, was sincere and went to Uncle Fu to confirm the matter. When they found out that it was true, they rushed to sign documents with Jiang Mansion lest Mr. Jiang would change his mind.

The best thing about Du Yu was gold and silver. He directly took out the savings in Jiang's house and cashed them in on the spot. He actually took over all the houses in Yixinfang in two days without encountering a 'nail house'.

Thinking about it carefully, it is normal. Firstly, he did take out real money and did not bully the people. Secondly, those people were also afraid of the reputation of Marquis Yunhe.In this world, not only a marquis, but also an escort in the county governor's mansion can make the lives of the people worse than death.

Du Yu did not expect that the plan would go extremely smoothly. Upon seeing this, he immediately accelerated the process and asked Uncle Fu to hire those people and craftsmen to start demolition and construction.

Marquis Jiang hired people to demolish the house and manage two meals a day, and he was paid different wages according to the workload every day, which once again made Yunhe County lively.

He didn't expect that building a prince's mansion would bring a wave of work to the people in the city. Not only did it not have the reputation of bullying the people, it actually received a lot of praise.

The county governor, Wang Jing, was thoughtful after seeing this situation. After careful analysis, he felt that he had gained a lot, and even came to ask for advice.

Du Yu didn't hide his secrets. He explained the real estate economic theory in a fluent manner, and Wang Jing was stunned for a while.

Later, Wang Jing, who had witnessed the entire process of the construction of the Hou Mansion, believed in this theory, and even asked him to write a letter to Sima Ren and even received a reward for it. Of course, those are all things that don't need to be elaborated on.

In this way, Du Yu returned to Yunhe County and lived a life like a local emperor, and with Uncle Fu and Ye Ziyan able to leave matters in their hands, he finally had time to practice in seclusion.
