Chapter 125: Yuan Chonghuan

Views:

Zhou Zheng is out of the house, ready to go to Zhou Ji.

As soon as he left the mansion, four family members followed him, only two were familiar, and the other two should be new to the mansion.

The leader laughed and said, "Second Young Master, the master said, if you go out of the house, the four of us have to follow and keep walking."

Zhou Zheng thought for a while, but he didn't care, he hummed casually and went on walking.

In Wei Xizhuang’s teahouse, Wei Xizhuang put one foot on the stool, shaving his teeth, watching Zhou Zheng and said with surprise and joy: "Okay, old Zhou, you can play that old boy without my help, not bad. ."

Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "If he doesn't move, I can't help it."

Wei Xizhuang nodded and said, "It's really difficult for a person like him, unless you are like nine thousand years old, but you can't do it."

What Wei Zhongxian did was forcibly constructing traps, and he was in control of what he said naturally. No matter how bad he was, he could make a move. No matter how bad he was, he could correct his decree. Where can Zhou Zheng do it.

Zhou Zhengdao: "It is estimated that there will be a lot of trouble next, you have to be more careful."

Wei Xizhuang suddenly snorted and said, "Who dares to move me? Don't worry, I will send someone to follow you. I will send a captain to drink tea in your shop. I will take a look, who dares to mess around?"

Zhou Zheng was taken aback, and quickly said, "No. By the way, has Tian Ergeng given you anything?"

Naturally, Zhou Zheng couldn't let Wei Xizhuang send Jin Yiwei to his site so blatantly, it was simply seeking his own death.

Therefore, I quickly changed the subject.

Wei Xizhuang was really fooled, and said: "Don't tell me, he really gave me some things, but it's not important."

Zhou Zheng was not surprised, and said: "Regardless of the size of the matter, what you have to do is to train people. Only when the time is right can you be very helpful."

This time Wei Xizhuang was also deeply touched by the lack of manpower. The talents under his hand are limited. He has got some secret work. He naturally understands the importance of it, put his feet down, and said in a serious tone: "Don't worry, I am better than you. Heart. You really don't need my help?"

Zhou Zheng had already calculated carefully last night, but he was not so worried, and said, "No, you can do your thing well."

Wei Xizhuang looked at Zhou Zheng and said thoughtfully, "That's right, the most important thing for you next is to keep a low profile, thank you behind closed doors, practice your handwriting well, your handwriting is really ugly, I haven't read it before. Go down."

Zhou Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said: "Well, send someone to inform me if there is anything, I'll go to Zhou Ji to check it out."

Wei Xizhuang also had a lot of things to do, and then stood up and said: "Okay, I'll go to the household department."

Just as Zhou Zheng was about to leave, listening to his words, he asked, "What are you going to do to the Ministry of Household?"

Wei Xizhuang’s business is basically to follow people to ransack their homes and go to the household to do what

Wei Xizhuang was taken aback, and immediately said: "You don't know, the two officials of the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs have been approved to serve, and the Zheng family has resigned. Also, the minister of the king has been promoted, the right minister of the Ministry of War."

Zhou Zheng looked at Wei Xizhuang and didn't know what to say for a while.

Although the two Shangshu from the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs wrote to the official office before, they were too indifferent when they were allowed to resign before this year. They even saved a stay of consolation.

Zhou Zheng judged that it was probably an expression of Tianqi's dissatisfaction, a punching bag.

However, Zhou Zheng's sudden promotion to the rank of Minister of War was even more surprising to Zhou Zheng. You must know that Wang Zhichen had no merit in Liaodong. Even as compensation for being dismissed, he should not be promoted so fast.

Yuan Chonghuan, a great hero, has only been given the title of You Minister of the Ministry of War! Wang Zhichen was directly promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of War.

What does Yuan Chonghuan think? What do the big figures behind Yuan Chonghuan think

Zhou Zheng knew that it was the aftermath of yesterday's meeting. He felt that there was a lot of hidden information in it, but he couldn't figure it out. He didn't say much. He said "I know" and left the teahouse.

Zhou Zheng left the teahouse and went straight to Zhou Ji. The sale of Zhou Ji was over. Liu Liuzhe was very excited and went up to the second floor with Zhou Zheng, reporting his income during this period.

He said: "Second Young Master, during this period, let's not say that we have made three thousand taels. By the end of the year, when the account book is back, maybe ten thousand taels!"

Twelve thousand, all the belongings of the Zhou family don't add up! This is a huge sum of money for the Zhou family!

Zhou Zheng was dissatisfied with the speed of making money, thinking about it: "It will be like this before the end of the year. Next year, I will find a way to expand outside Beijing, first opening branches in thirteen provinces and capitals, and then gradually expanding. I can find partners and invest together. After operating and gaining a firm foothold, we must slowly establish channels that belong to us. Channels are also the lifeblood and cannot be in the hands of others. What you have to do next is to train people and find some cooperative businessmen..."

There are no pure merchants now. They are both official and business. Zhou is just preventing some things.

Liu Liuzhe listened earnestly, and kept nodding his head.

Zhou Zheng didn't expect him to write it all down, saying: "I will write a detailed plan for you later, and you will do the same and ask me if you don't understand."

Liu Liuche naturally agreed immediately, with an extremely serious expression on his face, and said, "It's the second young master!"

Zhou Zheng waved his hand, took the paper, pen and ink, and prepared to write a plan.

Seeing this, Liu Liuzhe quietly quit.

Zhou Zheng started to write, but it didn't take long for him to continue. He still has some knowledge of the capital, but his eyes are darkened outside the capital.

"We have to discuss with Cheng Jiji and others." Zhou Zheng muttered to himself and put down his pen.

Zhou Zheng sat for a while and got up. He was going to the'factory' to take a look, and then go to the tooth shop. After that, he had to stay in the house, cultivate his moral character, read a book and practice calligraphy, and sit and watch the changes inside and outside the court.

Zhou Zheng came out of the weekly diary, and the four family members followed like a shadow.

Not long after walking out, suddenly a family-like person came up, raised his hand with a very respectful expression, and asked, "Is it Zhou Yushi?"

Zhou Zheng looked at this person and said, "I am, what is your mansion?"

The man quickly said: "Don't dare, the villain asked Zhou Yushi to go to the teahouse at the order of my master. My master's surname is Yuan, and he just returned to Beijing from Liaodong."

Zhou Zheng raised his brows and looked up at the teahouse behind this person.

The surname is Yuan, from Liaodong, so there is only that one.

—The governor of Liaodong, Yuan Chonghuan.

Zhou Zheng was surprised, why did Yuan Chonghuan want to comment on him? Even if Zhou Zheng makes a big disturbance, he is only a small supervisory official, and he is still in great danger, and will be destroyed at any time.

Is it because Zhou Zheng opposed to abandoning Liao? Is it because of Li Hengbing's imprisonment? Or is it because of his reform script

The housekeeper looked at Zhou Zheng and frowned, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, Zhou Yushi, my master is not malicious, just want to have tea with Zhou Yushi."

Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said, "Okay."

Regardless of Yuan Chonghuan's idea, Zhou Zheng also wanted to see him.

In the second year of Chongzhen, that is, the year afterwards, Jiankui would bypass Shanhaiguan and enter from Xifengkou to carry out unprecedented looting of Daming. Many important generals would be killed in battle, and it would have a major impact on Daming's suppression of bandits and national destiny. (End of this chapter)
