Chapter 72 Relatives (1)(1/2)

As we all know, the imperial city of the Song Dynasty has always been a sieve with air leakage from all sides.

Not to mention the conversation between Zhao Xu and the Empress Dowager, Empress Xiang did not even think about keeping it secret.

Even if many royal families tried their best to keep things secret in the past, as long as the number of people present exceeds a certain order of magnitude.

For example, a two-digit number will definitely spread in Bianjing the next day.

Therefore, before noon, this matter had already spread to Ouchi.

First, several officials in the capital found out about it.

"Emperor Daxing, it's really..." After Zhang Dun learned the general story, he sighed and said after a long time: "Think long-term and have good intentions!"

That is indeed something that His Majesty can do!

Zhang Dun was in his palace, looking at Bianjing City.

He knew that the whole Bianjing would be boiling.

Over the years, the Embankment Department has set up dozens of large and small stacking yards in and outside Bianjing, with nearly a hundred yard services, warehouses, and thousands of shops.

There are no less than 20,000 employees, and around the stacking yards, warehouses and warehouses, there are at least 100,000 workers working to earn a living.

What does making money every day count?

In which month did the Bank's revenue fall below 100,000 yuan?!

Now, the Embankment Department is going to buy it.

Zhang Dun knew that all the relatives, nobles, and even the clan in Bianjing City would become lively.

Such a big piece of fat will make everyone salivate.

The people of Bianjing will be delighted with the good news that the City Change Law will be abolished.

Hence, the resentment in Bianjing city in the past ten years.

All gone in one day!

There may even be many people who are grateful and feel that this is a great blessing from God.



All parties in Bianjing City.

Far more excited than Zhang Dun imagined.

Almost as soon as the news got out, there was no confirmation.

Roaring sounds have already been heard from various guilds in Bianjing City.

"Hurry up!"

"Send everyone out to me and keep an eye on them all at the XX stacking yard of the Embankment Department!"

"Every plant, every tree, every brick, keep an eye on them all!"

These fat-bellied big businessmen always hate the Embankment Division the most.

Because in the past, their goods were forced to be unloaded at the stacking yard of the Embankment Department, and were also forced to be stored in the warehouse of the Embankment Department.

The business that was supposed to make a hundred dollars was suddenly poached by the Embankment Department and at least half of it was taken away from it!

Hate or not?

I must hate it! I don’t know how many people want to set fire to the stacking yards and warehouses of the Embankment Department!

But now, everything has changed.

The stacking yards, warehouses, and field services of the Embankment Department must all be bought out!

This is different, completely different.

Those stacking yards are theirs and their property!

The roles were immediately reversed.

Things that I hated and hated in the past have now become delicious food.

All the shortcomings in the past have now become advantages.

They looked at the Bianhe River that divided Bianjing into north and south.

There was a sparkle in everyone's eyes.

Especially those places where their goods were unloaded in the past, and the stacking yards, warehouses and warehouses opened by the Embankment Division on both sides of the Bian River.

A place that can be selected by the Embankment Department.

Naturally, it is a good place with convenient transportation, spacious place, and high terrain, so you are not afraid of flooding or heavy rain!

In addition, the people from the Embankment Department have built all the infrastructure and the related supporting facilities are also complete.

Now, they all have to be bought!

Mine...my...all mine!

I don’t know how many big businessmen roared in their hearts.

They know that the stacking yards, operations and warehouses of the Embankment Department are all a treasure trove.

As long as you win one, you will get a long-term meal ticket.

As long as you keep it, don't let outsiders take it away.

All future generations will benefit from it!



The ancestral home of the Xiang family is in Xinchangfang.

Since the beginning of the Republic of China, the Xiang family has taken root here.

As the younger brothers of the current empress dowager, brothers Xiang Zonghui and Xiang Zongliang have always kept a low profile in the Bianjing city.

But now, it is difficult for them to keep a low profile.

Just after noon, the ancestral home of the Xiang family was already bustling with activity.

Visitors came one after another.

Each one of them is a distinguished member of the country in Bianjing City, and a descendant of a relative’s family.

Large and small packages of gifts were delivered to Xiang Zhai as if they were free of charge.

"Brothers, you can't do it! You can't do it!" Xiang Zong replied and led the guests into the house with a smile.

"That's right! That's right!"

"Brother Zifa, we will have to rely on you from now on!"

"Brothers, I'm serious... I'm serious..." Xiang Zonghui returned the favor with a smile. He was relatively rich, with a round face and a plump face, so many people were always confused by his appearance and thought he was

easy-going.

Only those who have truly spent time with Xiang Zonghui know that the empress dowager's younger brother is no less thoughtful than others.

"Is Madam here?" the guests asked after entering the backyard.

"Unfortunately, Jiasi went to Daxiangguo Temple today to fulfill his vow..." Xiang Zong replied.

"That would be a shame!"

"We wanted to pay homage to the Madam! We would like to congratulate the Madam!"

The guests immediately shook their heads and expressed regret.

"Congratulations?" Xiang Zonghui pretended to be confused: "Why are you so happy?"

The guests were immediately surprised: "Brother Zifa, don't you know?"

"Today, news came out from the palace that the emperor is a filial, benevolent, holy, observant of propriety and rule. Knowing that the Tai Madam has worked hard to raise Her Highness the Empress Dowager, he dedicated the stacking yard of the Bianjing Embankment Division to pay for the Tai Madam's makeup!"

"He is truly a pure and filial emperor and a perfect official!"

"Who says it's not?"

The guests were chattering away.

Xiang Zong listened and pretended to be surprised: "Is this happening?"

"God's grace is so great! God's grace is so great!"

He immediately bowed his hands to the guests and said, "I will enter the palace, face the saint in person, and express my gratitude in front of the emperor!"

"Brothers, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you any longer!"

"If you don't want to give up, you can use some tea in the humble house..."

With that said, he turned around and hurried away.

It can be seen that he does not want to make compromises with these people at all!

Why?
