The Qingfeng Building in Hecheng County was slowly on the right track, and Jiang Zhen began to prepare for the Qingfeng Building on the other side of Fucheng. It was the blue bricks burned by himself, and he also saved a lot - the Qingfeng Building here used Zheng It is an old house of the family, but in the case of the Fucheng, it is better to build all of them.
In order to build the Qingfeng Building on the other side of Fucheng, Jiang Zhen even deliberately hired a lot of carpenters, and then asked them to create some entertainment facilities that fit his own ideas.
He had never played something as tall as golf, and he didn't know how to make it. But for billiards, bowling, etc., the sea could be copied. Of course, after he came up with the game, he must first tell Zheng Yi, and then let Zheng Yi. Yi re-created a completely different, poetic name.
Jiang Zhen spent a lot of time upstairs in Qingfeng, but he didn't forget his escort.
Now the weather is getting colder and colder, but the business of the escort bureau has not deteriorated at all, but has gotten better.
Ordinary people will buy some clothes and some meat during Chinese New Year, not to mention those rich people... Years ago, no matter what kind of goods, they sold very well.
Almost all of the small businessmen in Hecheng County have been dispatched to do business. In the past, they hired people to move around in small boats, but now...
As long as you spend a little money, you can take the big ship of Jinzhen Escort to do business, and you can also nest in the cabin without the cold wind...
Many people found Jin Zhen's escort bureau, which made Jiang Zhen's boats almost not enough. Later, Zheng Yi rented two large boats for him, so that he could relax.
Nowadays, a very conspicuous "Zhen" flag is hung on the boats of Jin Zhen Escort Bureau, and all the people of Jin Zhen Escort Bureau will also wear uniform clothes. As a result, the people of Hecheng County, to this Escort Bureau, Also understand more and more.
"I heard that the people in the Jin Zhen Escort Bureau make a lot of money!"
"There is a man in our alley who has never been to school before, so he followed his grandfather to recognize a few words and went to the Jin Zhen Escort Bureau. Now he can earn four taels of silver a month!"
"What's only four taels? You all know that Zheng Baoning from my house. He used to make money by painting belly pockets for some hidden prostitutes. Now he runs a line with a boat and takes five taels of silver a month, not to mention. , and bonuses... In the past, his family had a miserable life, but now everyone wears new clothes."
"The owner of the Jin Zhen Escort Agency, I heard that he is friends with the eldest young master in the Zheng residence, and the two of them opened the Qingfeng Building together... That's a chicken that lays golden eggs! I don't know if he earns all the money. How much!"
…
Almost all the people in Hecheng County were talking about the Jin Zhen Escort Bureau.
When Song Li stood over at first, he wanted to hear a few bad words about Jin Zhen's escort, but in the end, he heard a lot of fire.
At this time, someone else saw him: "Song Li! Good you Song Li, please stop for me!"
The man shouted, and then rushed towards Song Li: "Song Li, I have no grievances with you, why did you lie to me? I lost a good job for nothing!"
It turned out that Song Li not only persuaded Zheng Baoning when the Jin Zhen Escort Agency was recruiting workers that day, in fact, he also persuaded several other people.
At that time, the Jin Zhen Escort Agency had no reputation at all. Many people gave up the job as soon as Song Li persuaded them. At the time, they didn't think it was anything. Now that they see the development of Jin Zhen Escort Agency getting better and better, they are angry with Song Lilai.
The man grabbed Song Li, and punched Song Li a few times as if to vent his anger, then snorted coldly, turned around and left.
Song Li was beaten repeatedly, his face turned black, but he couldn't do anything... In the end, he could only cover his aching stomach and go home.
"Where did you go? It's fine if you can't find errands outside, and you don't do any work at home. What do you want to do!" Song Li's wife looked at Song Li dissatisfiedly: "Back then, Jin Zhen How good is the job at the escort bureau, you have already signed up, but other people have a few words, and they don't even go!"
"Didn't I tell you? That Jiang Zhen is not a good person!" Song Lidao.
"What's wrong with him not being a good person? As long as he is willing to give money! Besides, I think that Jiang Chengxiang is really not a good person!" Song Li's wife disliked Jiang Chengxiang.
The Song family is fairly rich, and they live relatively well-off, but they are not particularly rich, and this is mainly because Song's father and Song's mother only gave birth to Song Li - there are fewer children in the family and less expenses. Did you save some money
All in all, this Song family is not a rich family, but Song Li has to be generous to help Jiang Chengxiang, what about Jiang Chengxiang? He actually had the guts to take all the money and things Song Li gave him!
"Don't say that to my friend!" Song Li said angrily.
"I want to, what can you do with me?" Song Li's wife asked.
Song Li was furious and finally slapped his wife in the face.
"Okay, Song Li, you actually hit me! I won't let you go!" Song Li's wife had a bad temper and was slapped. She immediately went back to the house to pack her things and planned to go back to her parents' house.
Song Li's mother hurried to persuade her, but was stopped by Song Li: "If she wants to go, let her go, I can't bear such a woman!"
In fact, Song Li was vaguely and somewhat regretful, but the more he regretted it, the less willing he was to admit his mistakes, and the more convinced he was that he was right.
Mother Song was dragged by her son, but she really didn't try to persuade her... This woman is already married, and if she goes back to her parents' house, she will definitely be disliked by her parents' family. Her daughter-in-law will definitely be back in a few days.
Jiang Zhen didn't even know that there was a person like Song Li in this world who was tirelessly speaking ill of himself. Right now, he was talking to Zheng Yi about distilled wine.
The last time Jiang Zhen wanted to use wine to disinfect the wounds of injured people, he found that the alcohol at this time was not too high. He didn't think much about it at that time. As soon as the shot was fired, I remembered it.
However, he didn't know how to distill the wine, so he only talked to Zheng Yi about his thoughts.
"Can you still do this?" Zheng Yi was a little excited when he heard Jiang Zhen say this: "Wait tomorrow, I'll let someone try it! Jiang Zhen, you have a lot of ideas, if this wine is finished , we have another way to make money!"
In some places in Daqi, it is forbidden for people to make wine without permission, because they are afraid that there will be insufficient food to eat, but there is no such regulation in Jiangnan.
Or, if there is, no one takes it seriously.
"At that time, someone should come to Qingfenglou for the wine!" Jiang Zhen is also very happy, this Zheng Yi is definitely a very good partner, and many things that are absolutely impossible for him to do are handed over to Zheng Yi, It can always be done quickly.
"There's no doubt about that! But..." Zheng Yi suddenly looked at Jiang Zhen with a tangled face.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Zhen asked.
"The Qingfeng Tower on the other side of Fucheng is expected to open later." Zheng Yi said with a wry smile: "During this time, there is an imperial emissary who is coming to Jiangnan. He is very pedantic and doesn't look good on everything all day long. If it's too big, maybe he will go to my second uncle's book."
Zheng Yi also just received the news that Zhou Yushi, who is "famous" in the capital, is coming to Jiangnan, still as an imperial envoy.
This week's censor's name is Zhou Maohe... He is famous for his ginseng.
In Daqi, there is no one who he does not dare to participate in. From the empress dowager to the soldiers guarding the city gate, as long as he is caught by the handle, he can ruthlessly participate in the book.
Because of this, he has been demoted twice and put in jail once.
The queen mother the Zheng family relied on was involved several times because of his involvement in government affairs. He was very disgusted by him, but many scholars took Zhou Maohe's way and felt that he was stubborn... So, the queen mother was angry again. , I can't really do anything to him - if I really do something to Zhou Maohe, I might be scolded and cruel to Zhongliang!
But the queen mother didn't want to see him, so she found a reason to send people to Jiangnan.
"This person sounds good." Jiang Zhendao, there were not many honest officials in ancient times, and he quite admired such people.
"That's because you haven't touched him." Zheng Yi said: "He's just a stone in a ditch, stinky and hard... Forget about him, he has nothing to do with us anyway." Could he not be able to offend such a person? Can't hide? Zheng Yi was determined to avoid that person!
Anyway, it is impossible for the surnamed Zhou to stay in Jiangnan all the time.
Zheng Yi didn't mention it, and Jiang Zhen let it go.
However, he really hoped that the person could catch a few worms in Jiangnan.
Even if the magistrate of Hecheng County is a little greedy, it is only an official who accepts bribes from merchants. Jiang Zhen does not hate it. After all, when the water is clear, there are no fish. However, some officials will help big families to oppress the people for money Waste of life... Jiang Zhen still hopes that the imperial envoy can arrest those officials.
Leaving from Zheng Yi, Jiang Zhen was about to go home when he was suddenly stopped.
It was Shen Anxin who stopped Jiang Zhen. He stood in front of Jiang Zhen and gritted his teeth: "Jiang Zhen, I have something to tell you."
Zheng Yi will live in Jiangnan if there is no accident in the future, but Shen Anxin and Feng Jingyuan are different, and they will go back to Beijing soon.
Shen Anxin has been unable to find a chance to get along with Jiang Zhen these days, but he still misses Jiang Zhen more and more.
He was not reconciled.
Obviously he is better than Zhao Jinge everywhere, why doesn't Jiang Zhen give him a second look? Is there only brother Zhao Jin in his eyes
Shen Anxin has grown up so big and can basically get everything he wants, but he was slaughtered by Jiang Zhen, or lost to someone who was inferior to him in every way... How could he be reconciled
He has received a good education since he was a child, and he can't use too violent means, but even so, he still wants to give it a try and fight for it again.
"What do you have to say?" Jiang Zhen asked. Shen Anxin didn't come to his house these days. When he faced Shen Anxin, he was calm.
"Let's talk in another place." Shen Anxin said.
"It's fine here." Jiang Zhen said, "If you don't tell me, I'll go home."
With no one around, Shen Anxin gritted his teeth and finally said, "Jiang Zhen, I admire you very much, I..."
"And then?" Jiang Zhen looked at Shen Anxin, does this person want to cooperate with him like Zheng Yi
"I... Jiang Zhen, if you didn't meet Brother Zhao Jin, would you marry me?" Shen Anxin blurted out, and then looked at Jiang Zhen nervously.
Jiang Zhen was taken aback.
When he was in modern times, it can be said that he had no experience in love at all. At first, he didn't find his sexuality, but later, he didn't find the right person.
He wanted to find someone who was willing to spend a lifetime with him, but in that circle, many people were just playing around...
And... He is actually not very good at interacting with people, so he can't meet the right people.
I haven't even met the right person. Don't say that Jiang Zhen has been confessed, he has confessed to someone, and he has never done it before. As for the time traveled here...
Zhao Jinge was actively pursued by him, and he was confessed like this... He also never encountered it.
Even Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi didn't say such things to him.
It was the first time that Jiang Zhen encountered such a thing, so he was stunned, but he quickly reacted: "I don't want to."
Assuming such a thing, it means nothing to Jiang Zhen. After he fell in love with Zhao Jinge and planned to live with Zhao Jinge, he would never think about others.
You already have a daughter-in-law, so what else do you think about
Jiang Zhen refused mercilessly, but Shen Anxin felt even more embarrassed. He had already lowered his body to look for Jiang Zhen, but he was rejected mercilessly.
"Brother Zhao Jin is so good?" He couldn't help asking: "He is obviously a duplicitous person, and he planned to frame me!"
"Don't force me to beat people." Jiang Zhen interrupted Shen Anxin's words: "What kind of person Zhao Jin is, I don't think anyone knows better than me. In my eyes, he is the best."
When Jiang Zhen said this, he was full of anger, and after he finished speaking, he gave Shen Anxin a cold look: "Shen Anxin, I didn't know you had such thoughts before... Now that we know, we will still be far away in the future. It's better to start, and you don't come to me again."
Before Shen Anxin could speak, Jiang Zhen left.
Although Shen Anxin said bad things about Brother Zhao Jin in front of him, he was very angry, but he didn't do anything else. He didn't want to beat him suddenly, but he had already made up his mind to stay away from this person in the future.
"Jiang Zhen!" Shen Anxin called out again, but Jiang Zhen's footsteps didn't even stop.
He wiped the corner of his eyes with his sleeve, and saw that his sleeve was wet.
Shen Anxin was ashamed to stay on the street any longer, turned around and left, but after he left, two people turned out in the corner of the street.
One of the two was Feng Jingyuan, and the other was a subordinate Feng Jingyuan brought to Jiangnan from the capital.
"I just said that Shen Anxin is not quite right these days. I didn't expect him to have this idea again." Feng Jingyuan said.
"Master, he is here to get Jiang Zhen's support?" The person beside Feng Jingyuan said.
"Of course not." Feng Jingyuan said: "He's just a kid fooling around... He obviously has no ability at all, and he still wants to come out to do business..."
"Master, Zheng Shao is biased towards him. He is still full of resentment against our Bandung Commercial Bank, which is not good for our future development." The person beside Feng Jingyuan said again.
Feng Jingyuan also knew what this person said. He even knew that Zheng Yi favored Shen Anxin because he wanted to use Shen Anxin to restrain himself.
Zheng Yi hopes that they can balance, and naturally he will support Shen Anxin... He has nothing to do about it, but he is not willing to see this situation.
Shen Anxin now lacks experience, lacks experience, and lacks everything, but what about after a few years of experience? Is it possible that he will grow up
Shen Anxin has always hated him. If the Shen family becomes prosperous in the future, he will definitely oppose his Bandung Firm...
Feng Jingyuan did not want to see this situation.
"I won't give him a chance to develop." Feng Jingyuan said, looking at his subordinates again: "I asked you to find people in Hecheng County, have you found them?"
"Master, I have found seven or eight people." The man said.
"Do they not know your identity?" Feng Jingyuan said again.
"I asked people to find people and they didn't know who I was.
"That's good... Find a few people, and next time Shen Anxin is alone outside, you'll let someone tie him up... He's a twin, so let those people have a good time." Feng Jingyuan said calmly.
No matter how harmless he is, Feng Jingyuan is not a kind person, otherwise, he would not have taught such a son.
If he kills Shen Anxin, Zheng Yi will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and he will have to be involved at that time, but if he makes people treat Shen Anxin like that...
With Shen Anxin's temperament, he would definitely not dare to speak out about this matter, so he could only swallow it by himself.
When he fell in love with a man, Shen Anxin could be in a trance all day long, and his chastity was broken, maybe he didn't want to live anymore.
Feng Jingyuan didn't look down on people like Shen Anxin, but he was very happy that Shen Anxin was like this, and it couldn't be easier to deal with.
"Yes, the owner." The people around Feng Jingyuan responded.
"This is an unfamiliar place. This young master Shen doesn't even know how many people he needs to take with him when he goes out, tsk tsk..." Feng Jingyuan shook his head, feeling more and more that Shen Anxin was too naive.
Feng Jingyuan's vicious thoughts were only known to the two of them, at least Jiang Zhen didn't expect it at all.
At this moment, Jiang Zhen just returned home, and then said to Zhao Jinge: "Brother Jin, you should stay away from that Shen Anxin in the future."
"What's wrong?" Zhao Jinge asked puzzled. Shen Anxin didn't have much contact with them these days, and Jiang Zhen never mentioned Shen Anxin... Why did he suddenly mention it today
"His mind is not right." Jiang Zhendao, Shen Anxin came to look for Zhao Jinge all day before, I really don't know what he was thinking...
Shen Anxin told Zhao Jinge about his confession, and it would only make Zhao Jinge unhappy. Jiang Zhen didn't say it, and only asked Zhao Jinge to be careful about him.
Brother Zhao Jin nodded and said one more thing: "Jiang Zhen, in ten days or so, it will be my mother's 50th birthday. My father told me in private that he wanted to make it more lively."
Zhao Fugui turned fifty a few years ago, and he ate an egg on his birthday, but Zhao Liu's luck was very good. He only turned fifty this year, so he could have a good birthday.
"Jiang Zhen, according to our custom here, you have to buy my mother a hoof, a chicken, a fish, and a pack of noodles." Zhao Jinge said again.
On the Hexi Village side, when someone celebrates their birthday, relatives and friends will send something. Those who have no money may bring some eggs and flour, and those who have money will buy chickens and hoofs.
"Okay, I'll have everything ready by then." Jiang Zhen smiled, thinking that it would be best to kill a pig to make a face for Zhao Liu.
As for a pig, they might not be able to finish it... It's actually nothing, just cut off two hooves and send the rest to the cafeteria.
By the way, the pig's trotters should also be kept. He likes to eat pig's trotters.
In the evening, Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge returned to Hexi Village as usual.
These days, he stayed on the side of the county town during the day, but always went back at night, and sometimes he even stayed on the side of the county town for half a day. After all, Hexi Village was the home he recognized.
Seeing Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge come back, Zhao Liu immediately greeted him, but now she will not be the first to pay attention to Jiang Zhen.
"Grandma's Pearl, oh, I miss Grandma!" As soon as Mrs. Zhao Liu came up, she was about to hug Zhao Mingzhu.
Zhao Mingzhu also missed her and reached out to her, so the two grandmother and granddaughter became intimate.
Since the Qingfeng Tower on the other side of Fucheng was not in a hurry to open, Jiang Zhen was very relaxed. The next day there was nothing in the county seat, so he simply didn't go there, but went to see his subordinates for training.
He gradually left the training to others, but he still went to see it from time to time.
When Jiang Zhen went to see his subordinates for training, he brought Zhao Mingzhu with him, and held Zhao Mingzhu twice, causing Zhao Mingzhu to laugh non-stop.
About noon, Jiang Zhen took his daughter to go home, but he didn't expect to meet Shen Anxin halfway.
Shen Anxin looked lost. When he saw Jiang Zhen, he rushed over: "Jiang Zhen, Jiang Zhen..."
Jiang Zhen stepped aside subconsciously, frowned and asked, "What are you here for?" He had made it clear yesterday, why did Shen Anxin come here again
"I have nothing to tell you, I'll go back first." Jiang Zhen said to Shen Anxin, and then left quickly, he didn't want to be misunderstood by Zhao Jinge.
Seeing Jiang Zhen just leave, Shen Anxin's face showed despair.
"Master Shen, are you okay?" Zheng Baoning asked worriedly when he saw Shen Anxin.
"I'm fine." Shen Anxin whispered, he said he was fine, but it looked like he was fine.
"Master Zheng, do you want me to arrange for someone to take you to the county seat?" Zheng Baoning asked again, worried about what happened to this person.
Shen Anxin shook his head, but Zheng Baoning was still worried: "I'm going to the county seat, why don't you go with me? Master Shen, are you a twin? It's not safe to walk outside alone..."
This Zheng Baoning had been in contact with many women before, so it was natural to see Shen Anxin's identity.
Zheng Baoning just said something casually, but Shen Anxin froze.
