**Star visited, Zhong Yuzheng naturally didn't dare to refuse not to see, he coughed while entering the secret room with **Xing.
In less than a stick of incense, **Xing left the Zhong Mansion with an expressionless face.
Zhong Yu was standing under the eaves with a solemn expression.
"Your Excellency."
A middle-aged man stood beside him and bowed slightly.
Zhong Yuzheng turned his head to look at him and said, "Did you hear everything?"
” The middle-aged man nodded and said, "My lord, I think what Lord Zhao said is right, if the movement of the Ministry of Industry is too big, you are the one who bears the greatest responsibility." ” Zhong Yuzheng frowned, his expression displeased.
The middle-aged man looked calm, and said: "My lord is upright, the things of Cao Yun are complicated, just point to the end." ” Zhong Yuzheng was silent for a long time, and said, "Okay, prepare the sedan chair, and the official will inspect the yamen when he is sick." ” "Yes, my lord."
Zhou Yingqiu grasped the power of the Ministry of Industry, and naturally opened and closed, although it was for the sake of the 'Queen Mother', but he inevitably carried private goods and imposed his personal will on the entire Ministry of Industry, even if this happened, his voice in the Ministry of Industry would not be less than Wang Shunding.
He kept listening to the officials' returns, and he recorded the problems in the account books one by one, and he also knew the ships and goods that were seized.
"My lord, Lord Shangshu is here."
I don't know how long it took, but a servant suddenly ran in and said urgently.
Zhou Yingqiu's eyebrows moved slightly, he thought in his heart, stood up and said, "Okay, this official will go to greet you." ” "Lord Chung."
Zhou Yingqiu greeted Zhong Yuzheng in the courtyard.
Zhong Yuzheng coughed with his fist in his mouth, looked left and right, and said with an official attitude: "Go in and say." ” Zhou Yingqiu had been thinking about the purpose of Zhong Yuzheng's return, and when he heard the words, he agreed and followed him into the house.
The two sat opposite each other, and Zhong Yu was routinely asking about the affairs of the Ministry of Industry for a while, and then said with a slightly condensed expression: "The matter of Cao Yun is already boiling, and the capital is boiling, and if it goes on like this, my Ministry of Industry can't afford it." ” Zhou Yingqiu frowned, and said with an embarrassed expression: "My lord, the emperor has made a clear decree, if I don't make some moves from the Ministry of Industry, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain." ” Zhong Yuzheng nodded, and said with a look of heart-to-heart: "Now that the luck is stagnant, the courtiers are talking about it, and I am not at home either, Lord Zhou, I must find a way to dredge it." ” Zhou Yingqiu naturally understood what Zhong Yuzheng meant by 'dredging', but he still pretended to be confused and said: "I don't know what the adult's dredging means?"
” Zhong Yuzheng saw that Zhou Yingqiu was so obedient, and his heart was relieved, so he stood up and said: "Lord Zhou, the intention of this official, the trial that should be tried, and the investigation that should be investigated, but Cao Yun can't be stagnant!"
” Zhou Yingqiu groaned for a while and said, "My lord, am I letting go of a batch first?"
” Zhong Yuzheng nodded, and said, "Let the less culpable ones go first, no matter what, the luck can't be blocked, this year's luck is imminent, if it really has to be delayed, you and I will have no future." ” Zhou Yingqiu was silent for a long time, and said: "The lower officials understand what the adults mean, and after a few days, the lower officials will gather all the Caoyun trading houses, reprimand them, and give them the release documents." ” Zhong Yuzheng shook his head slightly, and said, "It's too late, I'll release a batch today, and if they have problems, we'll deal with them later." ” Zhou Yingqiu's expression was even more difficult, and he hesitated and didn't speak.
Zhong Yuzheng also knew that the Ministry of Works' actions were too big this time, and this would indeed damage the majesty, so he said for a while: "Lord Zhou, we must let go of a batch today, and Caoyun must not stop for a day." ” Zhou Yingqiu looked at Zhong Yuzheng, knowing that he had made up his mind, and hesitated: "Okay, then the lower officials will find some suitable ones, and they will be asked to submit the review documents and stamp them with my seal to let them go." ” Zhong Yuzheng saw Zhou Yingqiu agree, and he didn't notice the subtext in his words, coughed again, and said, "Okay, then I'll go back to recuperate with peace of mind." ” Zhou Yingqiu hurriedly got up and said, "Xiaguan sends off the lord." ” Zhong Yu was leaving, and from behind the bookshelf, a thin figure slowly walked out and said sharply: "Lord Zhou is a good means, this will hold all the power of Caoyun's review in his hands." ” Zhou Yingqiu also had a look of pride on his face, now the Cao Yun ship must have his seal when entering and leaving the port, just now he hesitated several times and pretended to be it, from Zhong Yuzheng's power is true.
He quickly retracted his face, raised his hand slightly, and said, "Let my father-in-law smile, and the things that my father-in-law wants can be prepared immediately." ” Feng Zhu nodded, and watched with a meaningful smile as Zhou Yingqiu took out the seal and stamped it on the document in front of him.
Zhou Yingqiu was busy for a while before handing a stack of documents to Feng Zhu and said, "Father-in-law Feng, as long as you go to the household department again, Huiyun Shipping is the only shipping line that can leave the port at present." ” Feng Zhu took it with a smile, and then said, "It seems that it won't be long before Lord Zhou has the final say on this Ministry of Works." ” Zhou Yingqiu was shocked, looked at Feng Zhu and said, "What does Gonggong Feng mean?"
” Feng Zhu waved his hand and said, "Don't panic, my lord, I want to congratulate my lord, and it won't be long before I get promoted." ” Zhou Yingqiu immediately got the hint, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Thank you father-in-law for mentioning the point, the lower official will definitely do his best to do things for his mother, and he will never dare to make any mistakes!"
” Feng Zhu nodded and smiled, and left with the paperwork.
Zhou Yingqiu sent Feng Zhu away, only then did he feel that he had something to say, but he couldn't guess what it meant.
Feng Zhu quietly left the Ministry of Industry, entered the Ministry of Household Quietly, and soon came out with a stack of papers, and went straight to Zhou Jianyu's Silk Village.
As soon as Zhou Jianyu got the two audit documents, he was overjoyed and immediately contacted the partners.
For three days, Zhou Jianyu was buying ships, recruiting crews, and at the same time, various docks and chambers of commerce were delivering 'business cards'.
Now rumors are flying all over the sky, and there are not a few boats for sale, but they are all small boats, but Zhou Jianyu still bought nearly 100 ships of all sizes through various methods.
Some of them were idle by sea, some were confiscated by the Ministry of Industry, and some were not transported, but ordinary ships, all of which were collected by Zhou Jianyu to expand the fleet.
At this time, except for the Huiyun Shipping Company, other ships could not leave the port, and the ships going north were also seized, so the business was not worried, and in the blink of an eye, the Huiyun Shipping Company in the large courtyard not far from the wharf was crowded with people.
Zhou Jianyu immediately took out the contract, looking at a fair price and making money with kindness, but he took all their business for the next three years.
At this moment, Zhu Xu in the palace was in a bad mood, even if a large number of profitable account books were placed in front of him, he had no intention of looking through them.
There was news from the Qianqing Palace that Zhu Youxiao intended to make Zhang Yanyao the 'chosen attendant'.
Originally, Zhu Xu had been hesitating in his heart about dealing with Wei Zhongxian, if Zhang Yanyao became the chosen servant, then he couldn't be moved easily.
"Come to think of it, this should also be Wei Zhongxian's means of self-preservation......"
