"Master Zhu, you and I have known each other for many years and are old friends. We know how to talk secretly. Master Shen has repeatedly made great contributions in the national war this time. This matter is not difficult to find out. The reward will be released soon. No. Speaking of those properties and meritorious deeds, it wouldn’t be a problem for Mr. Shen to raise it by half a level, right?
What's more, Master Shen has been a popular figure in front of Commander Pang Ban in the past few years. Taking advantage of the east wind of this national war, it is certain that he will rise to the top, right? "
Zhu Shou was not surprised at all by what the other party said. The three fat men here are not ordinary people. Instead, they were three extremely wealthy businessmen whose ancestral home was in Fengri City. They met Zhu Shou when they were buying slaves. At that time, Zhu Shou was not the master of Yahang but just a general manager.
Now that Zhu Shou has become the leader of the business, the business of these three people is also booming. They are making money every day, and they are very prosperous in the Jingjiu Dynasty. It is precisely because of this that Zhu Shou has always maintained "friendship" with them.
After considering his words, Zhu Shoucai said: "Are the three of you so well-informed?"
"Psychic? What kind of psychic is this? This news has been spread for a long time. Could it be that Mr. Zhu doesn't know about it? Or maybe the three of us are preparing to take the exam?"
Zhu Shou immediately laughed loudly and said, "Brother Li, that's enough. I'm just curious. Mr. Shen is now in the fifth rank and serves as a thousand-household official, commanding all the black flag camps in Jingxi. This power is no worse than Lord Kuang, who is in charge of Qianhu of Xuanqing Guards in Fengri City. The three of you think Lord Shen is still going to be promoted? How can he be promoted?"
Although he said he was "curious" and did not admit "taking the exam", the meaning in Zhu Shou's words was all about taking the exam. He is indeed close to Shen Hao, but his status is not that of being a "friend" with Shen Hao as outsiders think. At the same time, he also needs to see if these three people have figured out the key ideas, otherwise he will not waste his time.
"Haha, Mr. Zhu, Mr. Shen, if you go up higher, you have to go from the fourth level. Black Flag Camp has a great future. It has been valued by the top officials of Xuanqing Guard since its establishment. Sealing Sun City has become the so-called "pilot" "After Mr. Shen is promoted, he just needs to stay in Black Flag Camp to command the Yamen. Isn't that difficult?"
Zhu Shou said deliberately: "Stay? The commander of the Yamen of Black Flag Camp is on par with the Qianhu Office in Fengri City, and the officer in charge is only the fifth rank. If Lord Shen is promoted again, he will not be able to stay in the commander of the Yamen of Black Flag Camp. "
"Master Zhu, you are pretending to be confused because you understand. Forget it, let's just open the window and speak plainly." The man paused and continued: "The integration of Black Flag Camp and Master Shen are currently engaged in Jingxi. Those big moves, including the previous "pilot" title, can it be understood that the senior officials of Xuanqingwei made a fool of themselves in Fengli City, and then they will use the achievements in Fengli City to Quanjing? Promotion within the scope of the old dynasty?
Once all the black flag camps in the country are integrated, there will inevitably be a new upper-level yamen, well... similar to the Zhenfu Shi Yamen, and even the scope of authority will far exceed that of the Zhenfu Shi Yamen. When the time comes, Mr. Zhu feels that this new yamen cannot tolerate Mr. Shen? "
It's easy to say it clearly. This shows that they are all sensible people and there is no intention of cheating or cheating.
Of course, Zhu Shou's views are consistent with those of these three people.
Think about it, if all the Black Flag Camps across the country were integrated into one place, then a huge network of forces spanning the east, west, north, south, and south of the old Jing Dynasty would be formed. Although this force was affiliated with the Commanding Envoy Yamen, it would definitely be different from the previous Xuanqing Guards. No, the authority will definitely leap to the Zhenfushi Yamen and become the real "Xuanqing Guard in Xuanqing Guard".
And Shen Hao is currently the best candidate to take the helm after the integration of the national black flag camp. All that is missing is enough credit to make people forget about their qualifications.
"How about it? Master Zhu, would you like to introduce him to us?"
Talking empty words is not the way to ask for help, so before the other party finished speaking, a palm-sized red brocade box arrived in front of Zhu Shou.
"Some seafood, please give me a lot of help, Mr. Zhu."
Seafood? Zhu Shou's eyes flashed with excitement when he heard this. Without being polite, he reached out and opened the brocade box.
The brocade box contained a pendant that was as thick as a thumb and only two inches long. The whole body looked like jade but not jade. There was a faint stream of light spinning on it. The whole body was as blue as the ocean waves. With the streamer, it really felt like the waves were surging. It was very strange. It's beautiful and magical.
"This is?"
"Aquamarine. Master Zhu must have heard of it, right?" Before Zhu Shou could speak, the man continued to introduce: "Aquamarine is not only beautiful to look at, it also has the effect of naturally strengthening the essence. It does not require magic to be refined. It only needs to be worn for a long time to directly benefit the physical body. I have long heard about Lord Zhu’s mysterious skills, and this aquamarine pendant will definitely complement each other.”
"Strengthening the essence?" Zhu Shou's eyes lit up.
He knew about sea goods, but this was the first time he saw the real thing. Aquamarine, which has been famous for a long time, is also seen for the first time. He, Zhu Shou, has no big pursuits in his life. He is a little selfish with his official career and just a man's hobby. Even the exercises he practices are for this hobby. He is said to be the best in Fengri City. Not too much for women.
Now that the sea blue stone has the effect of strengthening energy, it really complements Zhu Shou's skills, and can even improve the ability of his skills. However, the specific amount of lifting can only be known by Zhu Shou when he comes down and tries it himself.
But this gift is really a bit generous. To put it bluntly, as Zhu Shou, it was the first time for him to see the rumored "sea goods". It can be imagined that this thing is definitely not something that can be bought with money. I just don’t know which of the three people got this thing.
"Hahaha... This is really a good thing! Thank you Brother Li for your kindness!" Zhu Shou was not polite at all. He touched the brocade box with his hand and put it into his storage bag. .
After the things were put away, the smiles on the faces of the three people at the table became even wider. No matter what circle you work in, integrity is important. You can accept things, but after accepting things, you must help others get things done. This is also the rule. Zhu Shou has collected the things now, which means that Zhu Shou is still certain about helping to introduce Shen Hao.
So I heard Zhu Shou say: "Master Shen is looking at the direction of Master Jiang and Pang Pang. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Are you saying that Master Shen is following the path of Gu Chen?"
Zhu Shou nodded: "That's right! That's why Mr. Shen rarely makes friends with others. Especially wealthy businessmen like the three of them. But as the three of them just said, the current situation is different. After the National War Edition is rewarded, Mr. Shen is likely to It's about to reach the sky and it's time for someone to help. With the abilities of the three of you, I think we can let Lord Shen meet you."
Zhu Shou's idea is very simple, and he is not trying to be smart. Shen Hao had told him before that he should pay attention to some suitable leading figures from all walks of life. If Black Flag Camp wants to develop, it needs to be pervasive. Now that the opportunity has come to his door, Zhu Shou believes that this is an opportunity.
