Zhou Qingli didn't care about Zhou Zheng's purchase of the shop, her eyes seemed to think thoughtfully, "Your eldest brother can't stay in the Imperial College forever. I plan to transfer him to the household department and seek a Seventh Grade. What do you think?"
Seeing that Daddy Zhou really didn't care about his business, Zhou Zheng felt relieved and thought about it.
With Zhou Fang’s jinshi background and two years of teaching experience in the Imperial College, if it is planned properly, it is more than enough to send it to a magistrate of a high-level county, or to be in a certain fat in Liubu.
The problem is that Father Zhou just got promoted and couldn't do too much. Secondly, the eunuch party is powerful, and the officialdom is boiling like porridge. If you are not careful, you may be planted in it, which is dangerous.
Zhou Zheng thought for a while and suggested, "Why don't you resign?"
This is Zhou Zheng’s second suggestion. Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng with a rare smile on his face, and said, “I know you’re worried about your father, but it’s okay. Although the eunuch party is powerful, there are still many direct ministers and enough self-protection. Up."
Zhou Zheng heard that Zhou Qingli should have a backer.
But even so, Zhou Zheng still shook his head and said: "The eunuch party is so powerful that no one can resist it, and no one is stable."
At this time, there really is no safe backing, Tianqi will die, Wei Zhongxian will fall, Chongzhen is repeatedly suspicious, who dare to say that he can be an official tumbler at this time
Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng seriously and contemplated his words, and then smiled calmly for a moment, and said, "Just leave it alone, let's talk about you."
"Me?" Zhou Zheng was a little unsure.
Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng and paused for a while and said, "You have no way to participate in the meeting for this madness. I plan to find an official for you first, so as not to make any changes in the future, it can be considered as a way out."
Zhou Zheng blinked, suddenly startled.
Since he woke up, he has always had a vague plan for the future, probably to make money first, and when the preparations are almost done, he will go to seek an official.
When Father Zhou said this, he only realized that he was already'crazy'. How could a madman take part in the test and be admitted to the Jinshi
In other words, his fame has stopped at Juren.
Zhou Zheng has already checked in detail, and Juren is qualified to be an official, such as a school official, such as seeking a magistrate.
Thinking in his heart, he still looked at Daddy Zhou and said, "What kind of official can I find?"
Zhou Qingli said, "There are few principals in the staff department. If you are willing to go, I will say hello to you."
As a member of the staff department, Zhou Qingli can still do it easily by arranging a choreographer. And the position is low and inconspicuous, even if they know that Zhou is a "lunatic", due to some unspoken rules, everyone keeps one eye open.
Listening to Zhou Qingli's words, Zhou Zheng was also seriously thinking about his future path... and Daming's path for the first time.
He never broke his knees, went to kneel and kowtow, shamelessly flattering Man Qing as a slave.
Zhou Zheng needs to seriously think about the future, and said: "I will think about it first."
Zhou Qingli looked at the second son and sighed silently in her heart. After a madness, the whole person changed drastically, with good times and bad times, which made him worried.
It was placed in the staff department, but I was worried, I wanted to watch and protect it.
Seeing Zhou Zheng said this, Zhou Qingli didn't say much, and said: "Well, control yourself during this period of time, and don't let the outside spread about your madness."
Zhou Zheng nodded, thinking while eating.
After a meal, Zhou Zheng left the dining room and returned to the study. He suddenly patted his forehead and said annoyedly: "I forgot to talk about the marriage."
However, this is not a big deal. Right now, Zhou Zheng needs to think seriously and plan his future path.
Sitting on a chair with his legs on the table, Zhou Zheng folded his hands, his expression calm, his eyes flickering faintly.
The Ming Dynasty in front of him is the eunuch's world, basically controlling both military and political aspects, and no one can compete.
After next year, Chongzhen came to power and liquidated the Eunuch Party, then the return of the Donglin Party would be another big pit.
And Chongzhen is a face-changing monster. If one can't fix it, he will be sentenced to death. He has been in power for more than ten years, replaced more than 30 first assistants and hundreds of books. Very few.
These are not real threats. The real threat is that the Manchus enters the pass, breaking the knees of the Han people, and all become kneeling slaves.
There are also those massacres, the phrase'keep your head but not your hair, keep your hair but not your head', which deeply hurt Zhou Zheng.
The flame was beating and popping, and the room was silent. I don't know how long it took, Zhou Zheng's low voice suddenly came out in the room.
"I am not a slave!"
…
Early in the morning of the next day, Zhou Zheng, who was refreshed, brought Liu Liuzhe and a group of family members to the shop that already belonged to him with all the tools.
As a result, the door of the shop was smashed open. There was dung on the walls, on the roof, inside and outside the house, everywhere, messy, and smelly!
Liu Liuzhe's angry face was blue, and he furiously said, "Second Young Master, it must have been done by the surname Zhong, let's find him!"
Zhou Zheng's expression was indifferent, with flames in his eyes, he looked up at Zhong Fenteng, who turned out to be such a low-level villain!
The seven families behind Liu Liuzhe were also filled with indignation, clamoring to find Zhong Fenteng to settle accounts!
The Zhou family is now the official home of the 6th-rank member Wailang. The Zhong family is only a 7th-rank service, not on one level at all, so Liu Liuzhe and the family members are filled with righteous indignation and anger.
"It seems that just a fight can't solve the problem." Zhou Zheng looked at the messy shop and said lightly.
Liu Liuzhe didn't care, and said, "Second Young Master, I was beaten lightly before. This time I beat him to death. See if they dare to provoke our Zhou family!"
Zhou Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, watching Liu Liuzhe whispered: "You slip away quietly, I suspect that Zhong Fenteng is looking at us nearby, let me find out!"
When Liu Liuzhe heard this, he immediately whispered: "Okay, you are optimistic about the second master!"
After Liu Liuzhe finished speaking, he said loudly to the angry Jiading in front of him, "This is the shop that the second young master bought yesterday. Everyone cleans up first, and when the cleansing is done, let's go to Zhong's house!"
Everyone yelled a few words one after another, and then endured the stench and began to clean up.
Zhou Zheng couldn't bear the smell, and stood far away, watching the group of families clean up.
This shop is at the northern end of South Juxianfang, with a river behind it, which is a remote place, but with the river, it is much easier to clean.
On the second floor of a restaurant not far from Zhou Zheng’s shop, Zhong Fenteng watched Zhou’s family clean up the dung, his heart was not good, his face was also a happy smile: "Zhou Zheng, today is just the beginning, I will give you every day from now on. You throw it once to see how you do business, hahaha!"
This time behind him were two family members, one of them bitterly said: "Master, I think it's too cheap to have a surname Zhou, and the young master who caused him has spent so much money, so let's find a chance to tie him up, cruel Take a lesson!"
Another said coldly, "Master, I think it's too much trouble. Why don't we burn the shop tonight? See what else Zhou can do!"
Zhong Fenteng listened more quickly and said, "Okay, when they are cleaned up, we will burn his shop at night!"
The two family members naturally agreed for a while, and after watching for a while, one of the family members said, "Master, don't forget the time."
Zhong Fenteng's expression shrank, he raised his head to look at the sky, and pressed his heart happily, "Don't worry, there is still time, I want to take a good look at Zhou Zheng's face!"
The two family members didn't speak, they did still have time. Since the young master likes to watch it, just watch it.
The shop that Zhou Zheng bought was not big in itself, and Zhou Zheng also planned to make a crushing decoration, so the family members didn't have any scruples about it, and it was almost cleared soon.
Zhou Zheng watched from the side and said, "The one on the left is useless. It is smashed. Clear a road and pave the slabs. For the other two, I will give you drawings tomorrow and decorate according to my requirements..."
It's not easy to renovate the house these days, and the family members are all familiar with it. There is no problem, and they all respond together.
Zhou Zheng was commanding here. Liu Liuzhe didn't know where he came from. He whispered in Zhou Zheng's ear, "Second Young Master, I found it. It's in a restaurant not far behind us. Two family members." (End of this chapter)
