The boat arrived at Tianjin Wei, and then turned to the Tonghui River, all the way to Jingshi.
At this time, it is already winter, the river surface is like a thin layer of ice, along the river embankment, the earth is silvery white, and the snowflakes are still like catkins, fluttering down from the sky.
Ye Chunqiu wore a jacket, watched the snow scene along the way, and finally landed at the pier of Zhenguo Mansion.
On the shore, the British have long been waiting for this.
Today, Zhang Mao was wearing a cotton python robe, and his head was covered with a thin layer of snow, presumably waiting here for some time.
A few crane cars leaned to the side, and when Ye Chunqiu, Deng Jian, and Qian Qian got on the trestle, he came slowly.
When Ye Chunqiu saw him, he saluted him with a flattered look, and Zhang Mao smiled: "No need to be polite. ” With this Zhang Mao, Ye Chunqiu has long been acquainted, the British government has gained a lot in the Zhenguo Mansion, not only one or two points of shares, but also the British Duke has a lot of land near the Beijing Division, and recently opened the mountain and blew up the rocks, many of the raw materials of the Zhenguo Mansion are purchased from the Zhang family, and the profits made by the Zhang family have long exceeded the income of the Zhang family in other places.
Almost no different from the situation of other people, those big officials and nobles, don't look at the countless fields, but relying on those alone, can only make them rich, but the town government relies on technical monopoly to make money, all of a sudden, so that the lives of many shareholders have quietly changed, those who manage the grange, now most of them are placed in the business of the town government, some in the town government to invest money to do some business, and some people provide raw materials to the town government, There are even more people who have become channel merchants of the town and country government, of course, with their identity, they will not do it themselves, it is nothing more than letting the people close to the clan or family do it.
But it is really fulfilling, but it is the treasury of the Zhang family, the Zhang family and the Ye family have already had an exchange of interests, even if there is a layer of relationship, the Zhang family's red and white happy events, will never forget this town and country mansion, so as soon as the invitation arrives, the Ye family will naturally have a reaction, if it is some major matter, it is necessary for the old lady Ye or Ye Chunqiu to attend, even if it is an ordinary thing, the Ye family will naturally send someone, at least one gift will always be delivered.
After going back and forth, the so-called friendship was established, and the two sides tacitly maintained it cautiously and took care of each other, and when it came to Ye Chunqiu's next generation, that is, Ye Xiaohai, the two families would be considered world friends.
So there weren't too many polite greetings, Zhang Mao went straight to the point and said: "Spring and Autumn, what happened in the Wa Kingdom this time, let's go in the same car, go to the car and say." ” Obviously, Zhang Mao is also a person who can enjoy it, his crane car has been specially modified, there are two sofas, the two of them sit down, the carriage moves slowly, outside the window, the scenery with snow begins to change, the carriage is on the cement road, and countless trucks and carriages walk back and forth along the way.
Ye Chunqiu saw the clock tower in the distance and the chimneys lined up, leaned comfortably on the sofa, and then said: "British duke, when the smoke in the chimney in this workshop rises, it is ten thousand taels of gold." ” "yes."
Zhang Mao couldn't help but sigh.
Originally, in his identity, he disdained to understand the so-called industry and commerce, after all, as a nobleman, his greater responsibility was to be a big landowner, and his Zhuangzi suffered a disaster, so he might need to be a little more attentive, but as he earned more and more silver in the town and country, the industry and commerce of the town and country government became the main source of wealth for the Zhang family.
Although he is calm and light on the surface, he is still a lofty posture, but behind the scenes, he has a little understanding of the workshop.
But at this time, facing Ye Chunqiu, Zhang Mao couldn't help but cry and laugh, such a big thing happened, Ye Chunqiu was still so lightweight, is this crazy, or has there been some premeditated plan a long time ago Zhang Mao finally couldn't help but ask: "Spring and Autumn, have you heard about the affairs of Jiangnan?"
Ye Chunqiu said: "I've heard that some people's abilities are not small, but I underestimate them." ” Zhang Mao shook his head and said, "Not only that, but the most interesting thing is that Liu Daxia, he gave a note a few days ago, accusing you of ignoring the law of your ancestors.
This matter is also making a lot of trouble now, Liu Daxia is a famous figure in the world, and a famous minister recommended by the first emperor, and now his recital has stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and a lot of imperial history has joined in the fun, the scholars here in Beijing are good to say, but there are a lot of people who maintain the town and the country, but the scholars in other places are also very troublesome, and now everyone will rule the world with filial piety in their mouths, which makes Your Majesty very tricky, Spring and Autumn, you have offended a lot of people, and now these people have a seizure together, and even I heard, There are also some people who ran to the outside of the temple and knelt down, asking Your Majesty to punish you. ” Ye Chunqiu's face turned cold, obviously the matter was much more serious than he expected.
This Liu Daxia is really a cost, there is a bit of a civil uprising in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is a group of people here in Jingshi who are looking for death and life, and instigating a group of people to run to the Taimiao to cry, which is tantamount to forcing His Majesty into a corner, if Your Majesty does not abolish the Zhenguo Mansion and does not punish himself, then this unfilial reputation will be confirmed.
Zhang Mao glanced at Ye Chunqiu deeply and said: "Spring and Autumn should be careful, this is by no means a trivial matter, it involves the legal system, it involves the ancestors, and any slightest mistake may cause a big disaster." ” Ye Chunqiu was still calm, showed a little smile, and said, "Please rest assured, the Spring and Autumn Festival will never let them succeed." ” Although Ye Chunqiu said it easily, Zhang Mao was not at all relaxed, after all, the survival of Ye Chunqiu and the Zhenguo Mansion was closely related to their Zhang family, so how could he not be a little worried about Ye Chunqiu Zhang Mao sent Ye Chunqiu to the noon gate, and Ye Chunqiu went to meet him from the noon gate.
In the warm pavilion, Zhu Houzhao learned the news, and he had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Ye Chunqiu coming, he immediately cheered up, and hurriedly said, "Ah, you are only here now."
I thought it would be noon. ” After a few months, Zhu Houzhao found that Ye Chunqiu's body was actually much taller, and he couldn't help but be annoyed again: "When you asked me to go back to Qinhuangdao first, it was premeditated, hmph, you hateful guy." ” Ye Chunqiu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty can't stand the bumps in the sea, and pursues the Japanese Kou, the mountains and rivers are far away, so naturally you don't dare to let Your Majesty take risks." ” Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to say: "How can it be like smashing Huanglong to fool me with these words, I am not stupid, you guy, but you have caused me a lot of trouble, I am good and decent, but now I have become disloyal and unfilial." aa2705221:
