The lonely lamp is like a bean, swaying.

Feng Ziying's face looked even more cold under the flickering lights.

"Is this news from Yanzhou?" Feng Ziying didn't expect that she would go south like this, so she had gone so far, and she hadn't encountered anything else, but she had actually met the White Lotus Sect again.

"Lord Feng,......" Wang Chaozuo took a deep breath, although he knew that this son was by no means an ordinary person, but when he saw that this person in front of him had already cultivated from the Sixth Rank Hanlin Academy, he still had a faint sense of awe.

It's only been four years, and the impression of that twelve-year-old boy still lingers in his mind, but now Wang Chaozuo is sure that this one is really going to be a big thing, and he doesn't know if he expected what happened today when the other party asked him to do it according to his arrangement, but in any case, the reality in front of him made him have to admit that some people are born to live on people.

"According to your request, he followed Mr. Xu before, and then Mr. Xu asked him to follow Mr. Gao here, because our Dongchang Mansion is very strictly guarded, so later Wang Er simply followed Mr. Gao to Caozhou, and then he followed Mr. Gao back to Mr. Xu, and also followed Mr. Xu and Mr. Gao to Beizhili Bazhou, Zhending and other places,......"

Wang Chaozuo picked up his fluctuating mood and began to talk about his intentions, "Wang Er came back a few days ago, met with me, and said that the drought in Yanzhou this year is extremely serious, and many people in many places have no food at all, and many people have begun to flow out, and there are many people who come to our Dongchang Mansion and go to the Dongfang Beizhi Daimyo's Mansion, but it is not serious now, it is said that it may be until the late spring, summer and early summer grain harvest next year, many people will not be able to survive at that time, either only go out, or only ......"

"What's all? Rebel? Feng Ziying sneered and asked, "The government will definitely give you relief, but I'm afraid that little relief can only barely keep you from starving to death, and it is impossible to ,......think of anything else."

"Yes, it can only be so, but now the Eastern Mahayana Sect is taking advantage of this situation to be very active in Yanzhou, Caozhou, Jining, and the Daimyo's Mansion, and there are actually activities in Dongchang Mansion, but the Fuzun Lord Shen is very strict in this regard, and has arrested a lot of people one after another, and asked for more weapons to protect the party before releasing people, so we are better here, but from the news that Wang Er came back, it seems that the Eastern Mahayana Sect intends to use the southern and southwestern Lunan side as its foundation, and wants to ,......develop in Jining Mansion, Daimyofu and other places."

Wang Chaozuo's words have completely lost the style of the former leader of straw craftsmen, and he still considers this issue more from the perspective of the government.

This is a rare good sign.

After the removal of the tax supervisor in the past two years, it has been much lower-key, and it is no longer as high-flying and demanding as the previous tax supervisor, although it also has an impact on the local area of Linqing, but it has been much better, which also makes Linqing reluctantly accept.

"Oh?" Feng Ziying pondered.

The agreement he reached with Wang Chaozuo to exonerate him was to release Wang Chaozuo's worries on the one hand, so that he would not worry about unloading the mill and killing the donkey and refusing to give in and fight to the death, but later it was more about wanting to lay a nail in the White Lotus Sect.

Because he remembered that the White Lotus Sect's influence in Shandong and Beizhi was deep-rooted, and the slightest disturbance would ignite the prairie fire, Shandong was his hometown, and it was also a territory that he wanted to deliberately manage, he couldn't tolerate this situation, and the infiltration of the White Lotus Sect by the Japanese people also made him vigilant, and he had to take precautions.

"Do you think these people want to rebel?"

"Back to my lord, it's not quite like it, this year's drought is mainly concentrated in Caozhou and Yanzhou, like Dongchang and Jining, which are actually not so serious, not to the point of starving to death, but the displaced people are certain, the scale is just large, if you want to rebel, it is a bit ridiculous, and the people are not so easy to take this road."

Wang Chaozuo is also the leader of hundreds of thousands of straw weaving craftsmen, and he still has a little vision, plus Feng Ziying's guidance in the past two years, his mentality has changed a lot, and the angle of looking at the problem has also changed, so what he said seems more fair.

Of course, Feng Ziying didn't let him be busy in vain, the official government helped through some relationships between Duan Xigui and his father, and he could be regarded as getting rid of the shadow brought to him by the White Lotus Sect in the previous two years, but he was still able to keep in touch with those forces of three sects and nine streams on the ground in Linqing.

"So they're going to take this opportunity to gather strength." Feng Ziying bowed slightly.

This is also in line with his judgment.

This year's disaster in the Great Zhou is mainly concentrated in Shaanxi and Henan, although Beizhi and Shandong are the base camps of the White Lotus Sect, but the disaster is only more serious in the local area, and the rebellion is self-destruction, but the White Lotus Sect is so painstakingly managed, it is still frightening.

"It should be so, but Gao Yingcheng also has something to do with our Dongchang Mansion, and he often comes here for activities, and Wang Er has been following that Mr. Xu now, so he has no time to take care of it,......"

Wang Chaozuo was still a little worried.

"In this case, you see if you have the right person to get close to that Gao Yingcheng, Wang Er can't relax after the person surnamed Xu, and you don't need to do anything, and you try not to contact ,......"

Wang Chaozuo is gone.

Seeing that his nephew Wang Pei'an was successful in his studies, and one of his sons was also arranged by Feng Ziying to be a miscellaneous servant in the county government with Duan Xiguituo's relationship, Wang Chaozuo no longer had the bloody and impulsive spirit of the previous two years.

It was also forced to be helpless that time, if it wasn't a last resort, how could a person with a family like him be hot-headed, now that he has embarked on this road, it will be more secure.

The White Lotus Sect is a big trouble after all, but firstly, that Mr. Xu is erratic, Feng Ziying thinks that that guy should be a big man, and secondly, Beizhi is their base camp, so he wants that Wang Er to stay still and wait for the time to come.

Such dangerous and hidden dangers that threaten the foundation of the imperial court must be wiped out and eradicated.

"How is Wang Pei'an now?" When Duan Xigui came in, Feng Ziying asked.

Unexpectedly, Feng Ziying asked this person first, Duan Xigui was stunned for a moment and then replied: "This kid reads very hard, and he also has some talent, he reads the Four Books and Five Classics very well, and Zuo Liangyu is completely two kinds of people, the teacher in the clan is very optimistic about him, and the Feng family also has many children who read well, but there are almost no who can catch up with him, the teacher said that he should have no problem if he wants to take the show exam next year,......

"That's good." Feng Ziying nodded, as long as Wang Pei'an and Wang Chaozuo's other son are on the right path, then Wang Chaozuo will not have different intentions.

"What about the students you teach?" This is what Feng Ziying cares about the most.

With the expansion of Fengrunxiang's scale and opening of stores, Professor Duan Xigui's apprentices who used Arabic numerals and double-entry bookkeeping began to gradually arrange for bookkeeping and calculation in these stores.

If there is no platform, this kind of promotion and learning will be much slower, and with this platform, even in the future, all industries that the Feng family can be involved in can vigorously promote this kind of Arabic numerals and double-entry bookkeeping.

"It's all going well, many people still don't accept it before, but fortunately, now it's completely in our own hands, well, since the beginning of this year, so this kind of learning popularization speed and use effect are much better, like Baoding and Hejian over there to open a new store, I directly arranged apprentices to take over the bookkeeping, in addition, the foolish brother is also thinking about talking to his aunt, is it possible to gradually promote our livelihood in Jingshi City and Datong,......"

Duan Xigui's appetite was even greater, which made Feng Ziying also impressed.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this guy wants to take this opportunity to reach into the entire Feng family's industry, but Feng Ziying does not reject this.

For now, he hasn't seen Duan Xigui have any other thoughts, as for Feng Ziying who has clearly set aside a share for Duan Xigui in those businesses, Duan Xigui didn't even dare to ask for it at the beginning, but it was finally established in the form of a contract.

If Duan Xigui has other thoughts, then he can only say that you are unrighteous first, then you can't blame me for being unkind, but from the current point of view, it's not enough, it's just that Feng Ziying is used to judging people with the concept of human nature and evil.

"Third brother, I believe you have seen the benefits and convenience of this kind of numbers and bookkeeping, well, I will go to a letter with my mother to make a living in Jingshi City and Datong, how it works, you can decide for yourself, I also want to say that it is expected that the imperial court may open the sea in the next year, and the city department may have a great demand for this kind of talent who can write and calculate,......"

“…… I mean you've chosen a group of people who have proven to be very good in our store, and who can also act as teachers, to further expand the scale of training apprentices, which is not too high, can know hundreds of common words, and then can use numbers to calculate and keep accounts, whether it's our own livelihood or other ......."

"Brother Keng, don't say it, there are really a few companies that do business with us, after discovering our bookkeeping methods, I didn't think it at first, but later some of us gave recommendations and suggestions, and some felt that it was very convenient, so I wanted their apprentices to close the accounts and come to us to learn a ,......"

"Welcome!" Feng Ziying was overjoyed.

If such Arabic numerals and calculations and double-entry bookkeeping can only be limited to this small business in their own family, it will be meaningless, and it is also a waste of their own painstaking efforts to make such a big deal, the purpose is to promote this most convenient and efficient method of numerical calculation and double-entry bookkeeping, and maximize the effect and ability of Chinese people to learn practical techniques such as arithmetic and bookkeeping, and now they have finally seen a ray of light.

He originally planned to take advantage of various opportunities to promote such "private goods" after the opening of the sea, but he didn't expect that it had not yet started there, but it had already begun to bear fruit.
