The name of the new county magistrate was first seen on the documents of Liangzhou Prefecture.
Liu Zheng was drinking tea at the time, and he became happy when he saw the name on it.
Don’t have money?
Liu Zheng was very familiar with this document, because he took this with him when he and his father went to Yinzhou.
"The county magistrate Qian Buqun will take office in Yangzhou on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month. The relevant people will go out of the city to greet him!"
This document probably conveys this meaning.
Liu Zheng laughed. He couldn't believe it to death that the new county magistrate was this guy. Does this count as enemies on a narrow road?
Shen Xing also smiled beside him and said: "Sir, I heard that this person is not rich, but I don't want to give you and the master face!"
Liu Zheng sneered: "It's not just about not giving face? It's just humiliating us!"
Qin Changfeng, Jiang Xuan and Zheng Yueru, who were standing next to them, all looked curiously.
Only then did Liu Zheng tell them about the two coffins Qian Buqun had given them when he left Liangzhou.
"This... this guy is going too far!"
"Don't worry, young master, when he arrives, he will be in Yangzhou for at most three days!"
Qin Changfeng was extremely angry.
Liu Zheng smiled and shook his head: "Why bother? Jiang Xuan, tell me, what should we do in this situation?"
Qin Changfeng glanced at Jiang Xuan and snorted coldly.
These days, wherever Liu Zheng goes, he takes this boy with him. This boy is also quite arrogant. He talks about the art of war. He is even a bit pampered and is not polite to Qin Changfeng. Seeing Liu Zheng still protecting him like this, Qin Changfeng was naturally unhappy.
Jiang Xuan glared at Qin Changfeng provocatively and said proudly: "Colonel Qin is too reckless! After all, Lord Qian is also from Liangzhou... When he enters Yangzhou, we will embarrass him again. The law does not allow it! I think it’s better to intercept them on the road!”
A strong killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Everyone was shocked.
Liu Zheng was also dumbfounded when he heard this. He shook his head and wrote lightly: "In three days, the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce will be officially established. Notify interested families that they will come over to claim the money in three days. Don't wait until late!"
Everyone was shocked.
Jiang Xuan's eyes lit up: "Okay, Master, this is a very clever plan. You can defeat the enemy without fighting!"
Liu Zheng shook his head: "If you don't fight, I know that he doesn't have enough money, and his business is pretty good, but as an official, he is just a loser! Instead of killing him and letting Liangzhou Mansion replace him with someone else, it's better to let him be treated honestly." In Yangzhou, do you understand?"
"The simplest truth is, know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger of a hundred battles!"
Jiang Xuan looked ashamed when Liu Zheng said that. Although he was dissatisfied, he had no reason to argue.
In the past few days, Liu Zheng has bought a manor in Yangzhou as a place to stay, and together with Zheng Yueru, he has bought a famous flower house in Yangzhou as a branch of "Fengming House". Today, it is also closed for renovation.
He always knew that this Yangzhou was not Yinzhou after all, so his Shen Gongfang could never move here. Yinzhou is my base camp, my hometown! And in the rules of this chamber of commerce, he has also stated that he will encourage the wealthy people in Yangzhou to go to Yinzhou to build workshops and factories after obtaining patents, and he will give great tax concessions. When these rich people heard that there was such a good thing, they all agreed. The business taxes in this era are quite heavy.
But Liu Zheng can let a large part of it come out.
Because his purpose is to revitalize Yinzhou's economy and leave a way out for himself.
Three days later, the Chamber of Commerce accepted the funds.
As soon as the news spread, the entire Yangzhou fell into a strange and strange atmosphere.
"This...three days from now?"
"Isn't that the day when the new county candidate takes office? We should be waiting at the city gate!"
"This Young Master of the Liu family is..."
The noble families couldn't sit still. Although they had decided to join Liu Zheng's chamber of commerce, the fundamental reason was still this chamber of commerce, which did not have any conflict with the county magistrate. They are officials and you are doing business, so don't interfere with the water in the well.
These noble families want to please both sides, but in the end no one will be offended.
But you, Mr. Liu, must go against the county magistrate?
What does this do to them?
Doesn’t this force us to take sides?
…
Some prominent families are still hesitant.
After all, Liu Zheng's arrival brought great changes to Yangzhou.
Zheng Yueru, on the other hand, was already riding a war horse and rushed back to the Zheng family in Yinzhou without stopping.
Then he summoned all the people from the Zheng family and made shocking remarks.
"Grandpa, this Chamber of Commerce is a great opportunity for the Zheng family. The Zheng family should spend all their wealth to invest in the Chamber of Commerce!"
This sentence was like dropping a bomb in the Zheng family. Others stood up one after another and cursed Zheng Yueru in all kinds of ways. Even Zheng Sheng was shocked by Zheng Yueru: "Yueru, how can you say this? "
"Father, isn't this Yueru trying to drag my Zheng family into trouble?"
"You must have an affair with Mr. Liu's family!"
"What is Laoshizi's Chamber of Commerce? The risks are so great. You, you, you..."
"Absolutely not!"
The people of the Zheng family were very excited.
Zheng Sheng also said: "Yueru, I just read the document contract on the Chamber of Commerce matter. The idea is really bold, but it may not be impossible. But after all, it has not been verified yet. Is it too rash to devote all the efforts of the whole family to it?"
Others echoed.
Zheng Yueru smiled bitterly and sighed.
She knew this would be the result. Most of these people's refutations were like this: Why do the Zheng family need other people's channels and resources because they have the Queen's back? There is no business in the world with more stable channels than the Zheng family!
Frog in the well!
Yelang is arrogant!
I was immersed in that comfort and could never get out.
Zheng Yueru took a deep breath and said: "Grandpa, you must not hesitate in this matter! Not to mention that our Yinzhou Zheng family is just a branch of the Liangzhou Zheng family, but as for the current emperor..."
She mustered up her courage and said, "I am about to die. When the time comes, the queen will be buried with her. Who will protect my Zheng family?"
As soon as these words came out, there was another burst of curses. Those who are bold, treasonous, and bring disaster out of their mouths, who dare to make false claims about the Holy Body, will be punished by the whole family. The people of the Zheng family originally disliked Zheng Yueru, but then Liu Zheng came up with the "Law of Natural Succession", and their grudge against her escalated directly into hatred! So when I seize the opportunity, I want to kill and maim Zheng Yueru!
"Shut up, everyone!"
Zheng Sheng shouted angrily, and the others remained silent.
The old man with the most say in the Zheng family looked at Zheng Yueru quietly. In fact, everyone knows that once the old emperor dies, the world will be in chaos. And this year, the old emperor is already seventy-three years old! As the saying goes, eighty-three or seventy-four is a thorn in the eye of the Lord of Hell! In this day and age, living to be seventy-four is considered a long life. As Zheng Yueru said, once the emperor dies, what will Empress Zheng be? A mother is more valuable than a son, but this Empress Zheng gave birth to a son. Not only was he not the eldest son, but he also had trouble with his brain since he was a child. There is definitely no chance of inheriting the throne.
According to the laws of the Longyan Dynasty, sacrificial burial is possible!
What will the Zheng family do then?
Who will protect them?
Zheng Yueru, seeing far away, there is no way these guys who eat dry food can compare.
"Yueru, how sure are you?"
Zheng Sheng pondered.
The others' expressions changed and they became restless.
Zheng Yueru said firmly: "Ten points!"
"Okay, so what if we give it to the Zheng family?"
Zheng Sheng laughed.
Zheng Yueru was overjoyed immediately, and the old man decided that no matter what others were saying, it was useless.
This time, the Zheng family directly planned to subscribe for five hundred thousand taels of shares!
It can be regarded as gambling all the wealth!
…
At this time, the Cheng family in Yangzhou.
Cheng Dai looked sad while scalding his feet with hot water.
He was the most active person in welcoming Liu Zheng into Yangzhou this time, but at this time, he hesitated.
This Mr. Liu is really very capable!
At this time, are you going to openly confront the county magistrate again?
"Master, you must be careful about this matter!"
"Yes, the county magistrate was sent by Liangzhou. Although Liangzhou has no time to resist the barbarians now, who dares to say that he won't settle the accounts in the future?"
Several people around him tried to persuade him.
Cheng Daishen nodded in agreement.
People of this era still have a deep-seated fear and obedience to the government.
Cheng Dai is not stupid. He knows that Mr. Liu wants the noble families to take sides. It is definitely impossible to please both sides.
"Okay, in three days, the Cheng family will go to greet the county magistrate with loud gongs and drums!"
…
"The Cheng family?"
Liu Zheng got the news immediately about Cheng Dai's decision.
In response, he just smiled lightly.
Different people have different choices, and he won't blame them for this. If a chamber of commerce chooses to go to the Marquis of Gangang County, it would be good if someone is willing to follow it. He cannot force everyone to side with him.
only……
I have to say that Cheng Dai's choice was a big mistake.
Regarding this, Liu Zheng felt that it was still necessary for him to hammer it out.
In the blink of an eye, it was already three days later.
On this day, a group of people had already gathered outside the gate of Yangzhou City.
Although the Chamber of Commerce recognized the funds today, Liu Zheng, as the person with the "bandit suppression order", should indeed hand over the work to the new county magistrate. Therefore, he has been waiting here for a long time.
At noon, Qian Buqun's team finally arrived.
Cheng Dai led a group of people and waited diligently.
Looking from a distance, Liu Zheng couldn't help but laugh.
This guy's formation was quite large. It seemed that he had prepared this noisy procession with his own money. At first glance, there were dozens of horses, dressed in red and green, and there were suonas and trumpets, making it look like a procession for sending off a bride. Qian Buqun, on the other hand, was sitting on a four-horse cart. Like the leaders who inspected work in later generations, his fat body stood at the front of the cart, with a proud smile on his face, waving hello to the people on the street.
"The county waiter is here!"
"The county waiter is here!"
For some reason, Liu Zheng suddenly remembered the scene when he and his father settled in Yinzhou. At that time, he was riding a horse and shouted at the top of his lungs several times at the city gate, but no one came out.
Thinking of this, he hasn't spoken yet.
With a whoosh, Qin Changfeng raised the divine arm crossbow behind him, and a prop crossbow arrow used for training flew out. The crossbow arrow hit a horse in the eye.
Then the horse was startled and the cart overturned.
Qian Buqun's spherical body rolled down in a state of embarrassment, calling for help.
Everyone at the scene burst into laughter.
