Chapter 99
I sent Jiangnan and Liu Sanjin away and went back to Liuzhanmen with Zhang Youqian.
Zhang Youqian was angry at the incident of Eunuch Feng's interference in the Pang family, saying that this eunuch would sooner or later, I would like to give him some color. I said, "A man, let go of your heart." What is unsatisfactory in the world, and the only one who follows you in the world is your father."
Zhang Youqian frowned and said, "Don't mention my father." I'm annoyed when I hear him."
I said you are the son of Zhang Baiwan, the richest man in Beijing. You don’t want to recognize this father. There are so many people in the world who want to recognize him as a father.
Zhang Youqian said, let them recognize him, I don’t care.
I was curious, what did your father do that makes you so upset? To be honest, was it the back door that your father took to you by entering the Six Doors? Otherwise, it would be difficult to enter the Six Doors based on your IQ.
Zhang Youqian said angrily, why do you doubt my IQ? But then again, I was able to enter the Six Doors, but he really put a lot of effort behind me. To be honest, my father used to be a stadiumer, but later he entered the Six Doors, but later he abandoned his official position and went to business. He was so lucky that he got to where he is today step by step.
I heard others talk about Zhang Baiwan's history of making a fortune. At that time, he was named Zhang Yi and had the title of "Little Sword Man" in the world. Of course, why is this interesting nickname unknown?
He was not satisfied with the Six Gates and later started a jewelry business, but his luck was not bad and he almost lived on the streets. Until once, he went to Persia to search for treasure and found a thousand-year-old turtle shell. There were three night pearls inside, each of which was worth tens of thousands of taels.
However, Zhang Baiwan was very smart. He did not sell the Night Pearl, but used him as a gift to give it to a noble man in the palace. With the help of that noble man, he had a smooth flow. Within a few years, his jewelry business was spread all over the Ming Dynasty and became the richest man in the capital.
As his only son, Zhang Youqian had a very bad relationship with him for a time. The reason is unknown.
Along the way, I chatted with him and talked about my preparation for promoting reform in the Jianghu Department. Zhang Youqian felt it was very confusing and said that these sects in the Jianghu have always kept away from our six doors, and our martial arts are not good. Why do we rely on us? Unless we are like the shopkeeper, we will crack down on the Jianghu City.
I said this matter was difficult, but if you want to establish the authority of the Six Gates, it is better to start with Xiaosheng Jianghu and Gossip Weekly. Zhang Youqian nodded and said that I had dealt with them, and these people only recognized money, and that they were mothers with milk.
I said, this mother, I'm afraid you'll be here to be a good person.
Zhang Youqian cursed, "I'm not a cow, so I don't have so much money to serve them." Unless I and Lao Budian and asked for money, and ran away from home that day, I swear not to ask him for a penny."
I said to Captain Zhang Da, you can live your current life with your meager salary? Zhang Youqian couldn't deny it. He said that Xiaosheng's back-end was very tough. He heard that the Central Plains Escort Agency also had shares in it. We might as well put some effort into the gossip weekly, buy out their shares, and then find a few imperial gunmen.
I remembered that day when he hired the gunman to post gossip news about me and Xie Junyan on the gossip weekly, and reminded me not to find the fool like that last time. Zhang Youqian patted his chest, don’t worry, this time we were looking for more than a thousand words and hundreds of texts.
When we were about to reach the six doors, Xie Junyan found me. Zhang Youqian smiled and said, "You guy is very lucky. I will first go and implement the gossip weekly matters. Then he ran away."
Xie Junyan was wearing plain clothes, without applying makeup, but had a unique charm. She hadn't seen her for nearly a month, and I felt that she had some subtle changes, especially her temperament, which was more free and natural, and she always felt indescribable.
Xie Junyan smiled slightly and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. I've come to see you several times, but I haven't seen you. To be honest, are you deliberately avoiding me?"
I said, Miss, as the head of the Jinling Jianghu Department, I am very busy at work.
Xie Junyan curled his lips and said, "It's just an excuse, I just said it if I don't want to see me."
This expression made me look at my heart and I quickly raised my hand to surrender. Sister Jun Yan, I am really busy, why not do this? When will it be empty, I will treat you to a big meal? Xie Jun Yan said I lacked your meal?
I smiled embarrassedly, yes, you are the eldest lady of the Xie family. You are lined up in a long queue for people who invite you to dinner every day, so I won’t join in the fun.
Xie Junyan's face was full of displeasure. He saw that you were not sincere. I wanted to eat sea cucumber, abalone, bird's nest lobster. I was shocked and I couldn't afford it.
Xie Junyan said with a gloomy face, "You know you have no sincerity, you will know when you go back to Jinling. I have been waiting for three days, and you didn't even say a word. In your eyes, am I really worse than that little witch?"
I was a little unhappy, so I corrected that her surname was Xu, her name was Ruonan, and she was not a little witch.
Xie Junyan suddenly became a little irritable and said, the little witch is the little witch.
I couldn't help but mess around and said, "Miss Thank you, I still have official duties. If nothing happens, I will say goodbye first."
Xie Junyan's face became ugly and she was about to cry. I felt that the words were a little heavy. I even walked up to her and said sorry. Xie Junyan said, "Don't apologize to me, I see clearly. Even if I do ten thousand things for you, you won't look at me in the eye." Since that's the case, why did you save me that night on Taoshan? Just let me die.
I said what you are talking about? I am the constable, and saving you is the responsibility.
Xie Junyan sneered, what a responsibility lies.
She turned around and was about to leave. Before leaving, she suddenly said, "I will go to the capital with my father in two days. The world has already spoken out, saying that the Netherworld Sect is suspected of being a sensible enemy. The Wulin Alliance has issued an order to call on the right path in the world to attack your witch. You should do it yourself."
I said I was connected to the Japanese? How is it possible? Can you explain it clearly?
Xie Junyan said that when you hear her news, you will be no longer busy?
I just say it's just a matter of fact. I understand that if a man is, she will never do such a thing.
Xie Junyan snorted coldly, that may not be possible. Maybe one day, you will find that the real Xu Ruonan is not what you thought?
I suddenly felt that Xie Junyan was a little unreasonable. She had changed a lot. She used to be as gentle as jade, but this time she was a little aggressive when she saw her. I was a little upset by her words. When I looked up and looked at her again, she was more than ten feet away.
You should take care of yourself. She said.
She walked very slowly without any fluctuations in internal force, but I always felt unpredictable.
The Netherworld Sect is connected to the Japanese? This crime is not light. If you guess correctly, it should be that the martial arts conference deliberately poured dirty water to suppress the Netherworld Sect. I thought I could finish the matter here quickly and go to Jiangning. If this is the case, I am afraid she will be in trouble.
When he returned to Liushemen, Zhuge Shaobing came to me and told me that Hu Zongxian's case would be tried in three days.
I said some adults are busy.
Zhuge Shaobing said, "You are also involved in this case." I said I would like to take leave and go to Qiantang. Zhuge Shaobing said, Captain Su, the six doors have been busy recently. It is not very appropriate for you to escape in the battle."
I smiled and said that the lesson of the adults is that this is the case. We, Jianghushu, just took over and had no experience. I heard that Jiangning is doing well, so I am not going to take a survey and learn from the advanced experience of our colleagues.
Zhuge Shaobing laughed and scolded, "Don't talk to me." This is what the superiors told me, and it's useless to tell me."
I said you are the chief constable of Liusanmen, and the whole of Jinling is not your final decision.
I really don’t count on this. Su Youzai, if you are really so idle, there will be tens of thousands of refugees waiting to be repatriated outside the door.
I said you didn’t send Captain Zhang, Captain Qian, to implement this matter.
Zhuge Shaobing cursed, these two people are not enough to make trouble. I don’t know who has heard of the bad idea, but they even put out porridge and laxatives on refugees outside the door, almost causing death. I have asked them to suspend their posts and reflect on them. You are going to Jiangning, and you will settle this matter within three days. I will let you take a leave.
My eyes lit up and I said something was certain.
I went to find Zhang Youqian. These days, he often went to serve porridge and was more prestigious among the refugees. If he did it, things would be easier. After hearing what I thought, Zhang Youqian said, "This matter is not as simple as you think."
I asked, how do you say this?
Zhang Youqian said, first, the hometowns of these people were in chaos and the fields were destroyed. Even if they were replenishing seedlings, the harvest was very limited, and they could only sell their land at a low price. Second, these people were in a hurry when they came out, and there was still some porridge here. Who would care about them when they went back? I talked to them and asked them to go back, unless the court guaranteed that the rich families would not take their land.
I said the court should consider these issues.
Zhang Youqian said, even if the court issued a document, if the people really had no food to eat, wouldn’t they eat dirt?
I defended myself, isn’t there any money for disaster relief?
Zhang Youqian said in the tone of a profiteer that in the year of disaster, silver cannot be used as food. Now, a stone of rice is two or three taels of silver. When they go back, they really have to end their lives. Even if a stone of rice is ten taels of silver, they have to buy it and eventually sell the land.
I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. I don't care. Only you can do this.
Zhang Youqian said, don’t polite me, I will mess it up for you. However, since you have received the military order, I will go out of the city to accompany you tomorrow and let you see the situation. By the way, I will have an appointment with the editor-in-chief of Gossip Weekly to have dinner to talk to them about sponsorship. Come and come together.
sponsor?
Zhang Youqian continued, "Are we going to control gossip weekly? If you don't give him money, how can we control them?" Recently, the Japanese pirates have been making trouble, and their sales are average, and they can't even pay for field trips. I heard that they are looking for people to borrow money everywhere. When they encounter suckers like me, how can they not come? As long as they have money, they can make conditions with them. At that time, they will find ways to cheat them, and all the equity will come."
