Listening to the lively discussion in the private room,
Xiaoxiaosheng suddenly realized that he had unintentionally uncovered a conspiracy against his boss!
At this moment, he didn't even care about his weak calves. He stood up carefully and rushed towards the office in a hurry.
But he didn't realize it was in another hidden corner.
A pair of eyes that never left his body.
Standing at the door of the office, Xiaoxiaosheng's steps suddenly froze.
Although he is not from the capital, he has stayed in the capital for many years.
He knew a lot about the twists and turns in the capital. As for the Lin family, the only person in the capital who can make people keep such secrets is the chief minister of the court.
Chief Assistant Lin Chunqiu, this old guy is not easy to mess with!
Should I offend Lin Chunqiu because of a mere Qunfang Building?
A look of hesitation flashed across Xiaoxiaosheng's cheeks.
But soon, the expression on his face became determined again.
Being able to attract the Lin family to take action is enough to prove that his identity as the new boss is not simple.
Moreover, it is obviously impossible for him to buy Qunfang Building with such a large sum of money without His Majesty's tacit approval behind it.
Just like what Sun Xing said just now, Yang Dong is His Majesty's confidant.
In this case, it seems that my new boss is not simple.
If he is really His Majesty's confidant, then rounding it off, he should be considered doing things for His Majesty, right?
If that's the case, then if I make some meritorious deeds, maybe my stupid boy will be able to overturn his case one day?
Thinking of this, the last hesitation on Xiaoxiaosheng's face disappeared.
He took a big step and entered the office directly.
"Senior Xiaoxiaosheng? Why are you here! Shouldn't you be here..."
Cuihua put away the account books on the table and looked up at Xiaoxiaosheng.
Seeing his weak legs, a hint of joking flashed through his eyes.
Xiaoxiaosheng couldn't care about this at this moment. He immediately stepped forward and lowered his voice:
"Shopkeeper, there's something going on!"
"Just now when I was passing by a private room, I heard a guy named Sun Xing gathering people to discuss matters regarding our boss Yang Dong."
"What did you say!?"
"In the private room of a brothel, instead of doing business, you are discussing how to deal with our boss?"
Cuihua didn't believe it at first, but then she thought that Xiaoxiaosheng had no reason to lie to herself.
Then a look of vigilance immediately appeared on her face.
"Senior Xiaoxiaosheng, does anyone else know about this?"
Xiaoxiaosheng shook his head slightly,
"They did it very secretly, and they were in the private room of the brothel. I just happened by chance. I guess no one else would know, right?"
Cuihua frowned deeply and unconsciously flipped through the account book in her hand.
"Now that the palace door is locked, even if the boss wants to get out, it may not be easy."
"Well, just follow me and wait here. I will send someone to contact the boss immediately."
"You don't have to tell me or anyone exactly what you heard. Just tell the boss. Do you understand?"
Xiaoxiaosheng is also an old man, so he naturally understands what Cuihua means. He nodded and said:
"I understand."
…
Imperial Palace, Xichang Building,
Yang Dong was sitting on the golden nanmu chair, looking at the secret letter in his hand in trance.
The letter in his hand was a letter from Yao Rui. According to the letter, more than 90% of the high-speed official roads in Luozhou are basically completed.
The investment of businessmen in Luozhou has now begun to pay off.
Moreover, the transportation efficiency of the entire Luozhou has been rapidly improved. In the past, it took at least seven or eight days to travel from southern Luozhou to northern Luozhou.
But after the high-speed official road is completed, it can be arrived in up to three days.
And because manpower is cheap in Luozhou, some cooperative merchants hired former farmers and took on the responsibility of security.
As a result, businessmen coming and going gave priority to the high-speed official road.
But as a result, it also caused a lot of troubles.
For example, those bandits and bandits who relied on the mountains in the past have almost lost their business due to the construction of official highways.
They believe that all this is caused by high-speed official roads. So he took advantage of the night and broke into a merchant's home.
There were more than 30 members of the merchant's family, and no one was left alive.
This incident has a great impact on the development of highway official roads in Luozhou!
The timid merchants immediately chose to withdraw and no longer participated in the construction of the highway. But this is only a very small number of people.
Most of the merchants, with red eyes, demanded that these bandits be killed.
Nowadays, the high-speed official road not only represents their wealth and life, but also represents an extremely considerable income!
When profits exceed three times, businessmen can become crazy.
They don't even mind selling their lives to each other!
Ever since, just after the flood, Luozhou launched another vigorous campaign against thieves.
In the past, most of the actions against thieves were funded by the government with money and effort.
But this time, it was the merchants who took up the banner of thieves.
No food and grass, buy it!
If you don’t have any ordnance, buy it!
No one, hire!
All in all, the meaning of these merchants is very simple, which is to kill all these bandits.
And with sufficient financial support, Yao Qi suddenly felt like he was drawing on the strength of heaven and earth.
After some discussions with Han Zheng, he personally led the remaining Longwu Army and Huwei Army to join the vigorous bandit suppression operation.
According to the secret message, Han Zheng also came up with an idea for this.
That is, any bandit who surrenders can be spared his life.
And those who stubbornly resist will inevitably die!
Under Han Zheng's operation, the bandit organization, which was not monolithic in the first place, fell apart in an instant.
Then Yao Qi led his troops to eliminate them at targeted locations.
In just two months, the bandits in Luozhou were almost completely wiped out.
And this also led to some fertile land returning to the hands of the government.
And these fertile fields, under Yang Dong's suggestion, were temporarily left in the hands of the government.
"Yao Qi is doing well, but he still needs some hard work."
"As for Yao Rui...he is loyal enough, and that is enough."
"Han Zheng, on the other hand, I underestimated him before. This person is not simple, he should be His Majesty's confidant. If there is a chance in the future, he can be promoted and reused."
Yang Dong scratched his chin, then picked up his pen and drew several crooked pictures on the rice paper.
"Mouse, go and make multiple copies of these pictures and send them to spies everywhere. If anyone can find these plants, I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver!"
Speaking of this, he seemed to have thought of something again and added:
"But if anyone dares to take credit for his work, I will fine him a year's salary!"
Upon hearing this, Shu Xiaoxiao immediately carefully put away these pictures.
At this moment, the little eunuch's shrill voice came from outside the door.
"Mr. Yang, over at Qunfang Tower, I'm looking for you if I have something urgent!"
Some people died, but not completely...
