When the two of them came out to see Guo Wenying, they were suddenly startled and hurriedly came over to greet them.

Zhang Mingchang smiled and said, "It's unfortunate that Lord Governor has come, Lord Jiang has something to do. ”

Guo Wenying nodded and asked them how the progress of the yamen was?

Lu Yiyu said: "My lord, you don't know, this is simply life-threatening, and there are so many people in the yamen who are really too busy." ”

Guo Wenying said: "It's really not good, just transfer some people from various government offices." What's more, if the maritime yamen is to be built, it must also have its own team, and tell Jiang Mao that he just let it go, and I will take care of anything that happens. ”

Zhang Mingchang laughed, "Sure enough, it's the Governor, it's really atmospheric." ”

He always felt that Guo Wenying was a woman, and he was afraid that he would be unhappy to be her subordinate, but he didn't expect this woman to act decisively and magnificently, calm and fair, even men can't compare, but it also makes him a little admired.

After a few people said a few words, Zhang Mingchang called Guo Wenying aside and said in a low voice: "My lord, there is something I haven't told my lord yet, it is about the assassination of the former governor." ”

Guo Wenying asked, "What have you found?"

"I am afraid that Lord Wu's death is to buy murder, and I am afraid that there is someone else behind it. ”

"You don't mean Jiang Taiping?"

"It shouldn't be, the lower officials have verified that since Jiang Taiping fled, some of the secret assassins who originally belonged to him have scattered, and some have nowhere to go, so they have another way. The woman who assassinated Lord Wu was named Bai Yue, and she was one of the top ten killers in the original Moon Pavilion, and she was later received by someone who spent a lot of money, and the person who spent the money seemed to have some connection with the Zhang family. ”

"Which Zhang family?"

"It is the Zhang family, one of the four major families in the southeast. ”

The most famous families in the southeast, the first is the Qin family, but since Jiang Taiping's rebellion, the Qin family has been implicated because of marrying their daughter to Jiang Taiping. Except for Yong'an Hou Qin Shumin, most of the rest of the Qin family were convicted. The second is the Fang family, the old man Fang Dadou is also a well-known figure, but the Fang family was raided because of the rebellion with the third prince, and it can be regarded as a decline.

There is also the Xu family, the wife of Cheng Engong, that is, this Zhang family, the Zhang family started by selling salt, and it is the largest salt merchant in the southeast. Chen Wanxi, who Guo Wenying met on the road and donated to the prefect of Hangzhou, is a salt merchant with the Zhang family, and he is also inextricably linked.

and the little white face of the son who teased her and had to have a one-night stand with him, is the little son of the Zhang family. I didn't expect that the case of Unatu would still involve the Zhang family.

It's just that why did the Zhang family attack the governor?

She muttered: "Do you think it is possible that it has something to do with the salt tax?" Unatu suddenly checked the salt, which annoyed the Zhang family, and in order to protect his own interests, he made a ruthless move.

Zhang Ming said: "It's not unreasonable for adults to think so, the Zhang family has indeed done a lot of dark things in order to expand their business over the years, and I am afraid that it may not be as simple as salt tax." ”

Guo Wenying nodded, this Zhang Mingchang does have some skills in investigating the case, this case was handed over to him, and it didn't take long to find out so many clues, and he was not a little stronger than Jiang Maoke. When Jiang Mao was asked to investigate the Beiyu shipyard, he couldn't understand it, and he still didn't know who the real owner behind the shipyard was.

She said, "Have you found out?

Zhang Ming said: "Lord Hui, this matter is just a little eyebrow, it is still just speculation, there is no evidence, besides, the assassination of the governor is a serious crime, they naturally have to do it cleanly, it is impossible to leave too much evidence outside." ”

Guo Wenying secretly said that it was not easy to find out this matter, so he told Zhang Mingchang to continue to investigate, take the time to investigate the Zhang family again, and find out the evidence of the Zhang family's crimes. In fact, even if the Zhang family didn't attack Lord Wu, they have controlled the salt industry over the years, and there are not a few things that have been done under the lights. It's just whether she is willing to attack the Zhang family.

It's not that she doesn't know about the chaotic chaos in the southeast officialdom, but she hasn't found time to make a big effort to rectify it, and when she is busy for a while, she will find a few to start the knife first. She said that she had to clean up the salt industry mess left by the third prince in the southeast.

The southeast is close to the sea, which is the richest area in Southern Qi, as long as the salt industry is stable and the tax revenue from shipping is collected, there is no worry that the treasury is not abundant, and the people are not rich.

After a few words of explanation with Zhang Mingchang, he returned to the hall of the temporary yamen and asked Lu Yiyu to get a few ticket numbers for Lu Yu first, and as for the review, he could talk about it later.

She said to Lu Yu: "I can't go by sea for the time being, what are you going to do now?"

Lu Yu laughed, "It's up to the eldest brother to decide what to do, the eldest brother wants to set up a trading house to specialize in the porcelain business." ”

Guo Wenying nodded, "Your firm can be slowly prepared first, but there is one thing I want to ask for a favor, Quanzhou Port is not easy to prepare for a while, I want to build a temporary port first, since your eldest brother has a wide range of people and knows a lot of people, you will be responsible for the preparation." It will be available for three months, and all expenses will be borne by the government. ”

Lu Yu is overjoyed, this is Shengsheng sent a big business to them, with the connections of the eldest brother, it is not difficult to build a port, they can make the difference by contracting it to others, this is a real profit.

The eldest brother also said that it has nothing to do with the governor, so it doesn't matter if he can help like this?

He hurriedly thanked him, and directly called Guo Wenying his aunt, and said that he was ashamed to set up a tablet for her to burn incense day and night.

Guo Wenying smiled, just as he repaid the favor of the Fang family at the beginning, the Fang family is in difficulty now, presumably the most lacking is silver, once Fang Yuntang has made enough money, when he establishes a commercial bank, the Fang family will definitely make a comeback.

asked Lu Yu to send him away, Guo Wenying took people to the port, this time it was different from before, the port was piled up with hills, and the workers were in full swing.

Jiang and his entourage held his trouser legs, holding paper and pen in his hands and recording everywhere, he didn't wear an official hat, maybe the weather was hot, and he was dressed coolly, he really didn't look like an official.

No matter when, he always appears with a simple feeling, Guo Wenying will feel like it at the beginning because this feeling is not available to others, which makes people feel at ease when they look at it.

Zhang Xinfang saw her from afar, ran over from afar, and said with a smile: "My lord, you see, these people work hard, and it won't take a year or two to complete it." ”

The port of Quanzhou was built according to the design of Guo Wenying, who planned to build the largest port in the Southern Qi Dynasty, and some of them also borrowed from the design of Shuangyu Island, and also built cargo holds nearby, as well as large containers for freight. When this port was built, a port was built along the coastline in Songjiang Province, which had a large draft and could accommodate large ships.
