Chapter 189: The British Duke (Second Update, Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection)

Others!

This person must be a senior member of the court, be able to come forward to settle some troubles, and win the trust of the emperor and keep secrets for the emperor.

Such people are hard to find, it is very difficult. After all, since Zhang Juzheng's main cabinet, not only the civil officials have been in charge of him, but also the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Admiral of Jinyiwei have all been friendly with Zhang Juzheng.

For Zhu Yijun, who didn't dare to let Zhang Juzheng know that he was doing business, he naturally couldn't find those people, and finally after thinking about it, he thought of another person, so he wrote a letter in person, and then said to Shi Yiwen.

"You go to the British public Zhang Rong, he has been impeached since Sejong and did not ask about state affairs, and he will do business and find a deal every day, and he will do it, and no one will suspect it."

Despite the emperor's handwritten letter, Shi Yiwen still seemed very cautious, and naturally inquired before visiting him.

However, after a little inquiry, there is probably a spectrum, this Zhang Rong is the great-great-grandson of the British duke. During the Jiajing period, Ouyang Yijing was impeached by the British Gong Zhang Rong for military and political affairs, Dong Yikui and Liu Xian, the chief military officers of Shanxi and Zhejiang, and Li Long, the governor of Jinyiwei, were incompetent, because he was not punished after he was meritorious, but the rest were reprimanded, but from then on, he no longer participated in state affairs and specialized in business.

"I don't hear anything outside the window......"

Smiling slightly, although he didn't know those nobles, Shi Yiwen believed that for the Zhang family, they must not be willing to be lonely, and what was missing was just an opportunity.

"Wanli is not very old, but he is quite accurate in looking at people."

muttering in his heart, Shi Yi Culture's eyes narrowed into a slit, this visit naturally can't be empty-handed, and it is necessary to choose a suitable gift.

It can't be too expensive, because it has the emperor's face, and it can't be too cheap...... Gotcha, it's still fruit!

There are still watermelons bought in Nanjing last summer, and on April days, watermelons and grapes are rare enough.

But...... It is not possible to visit the house directly.

Not to mention, when Zhang Rong, who was in his seventies, saw the watermelon and grapes on the gift list, he was really rare for a while, and even full of relish.

"Yuan Gong, go, order someone to cut this watermelon, this watermelon can be eaten just out of winter, it's really rare enough, I don't know where Shi Tongzhi got it."

Commanding his son's kung fu to cut melons, Zhang Rong said again.

"He is an idle brocade guard, and he gave me a gift to this idle prince, but it is rarer than this watermelon."

Father's self-deprecation made Zhang Yuangong say.

"Maybe there's something you want to ask for your father."

"Please? What can I do to help him? ”

In addition to laughing at himself, Zhang Rong unfolded Shi Yiwen's letter, glanced at it slightly, and then his face changed suddenly. Then there was silence for a long time. Looking at the watermelon on the plate, the whole person couldn't help but hesitate.

"This watermelon...... Broken teeth! ”

After a long time, Zhang Rong said such a sentence.

"Dad, you're ......"

Seeing that his father's face was wrong, Zhang Yuangong said.

"Is it that what he asks you to do is too difficult?"

"It's not hard, it's just ...... It's not his business. ”

Pursing his lips, he looked at his fifty-something son, and then he fell into thought again, and after a long time, he commanded.

"Yuan Gong, in this way, you let Wei Liang go to Shitaizhuang in the afternoon...... Well, tell him to talk to him about the bank's business, and ask him to come to me before he goes. ”

If Shi Yiwen heard his words, he would definitely be shocked, after all, he hadn't even heard of Zhang Rong before, and the other party pointed out his business at once.

"Dad, Wei Liang's body ......"

As soon as he heard that he wanted to let his son pass, Zhang Yuangong naturally thought of his son's body, which could tire him.

"I think it's better to let the second family's Weixian pass, after all, ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Rong snorted.

"No matter what, to the outside, Wei Liang is also the eldest grandson of Nagato, you don't understand this matter, he has to come forward."

"Daddy!"

"Alright, that's it,"

Seeing that his son was still heartbroken for his son, Zhang Rong said.

"I'm doing this for our Zhang family."

"Just one of the brocade guards? As for it? ”

"He doesn't, but the people behind him......"

Shaking his head and sighing, Zhang Rong commanded again.

"In the future, our Zhang family will definitely have to deal with him often, see him in the future, you don't hold the shelf of the Guogong Mansion, you have to be closer, this point, you have to learn from Yuande, Wei Liang is better than you, it's the body......"

Shaking his head and sighing, Zhang Rong's eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly.

"Of course, your father and I have a similar temper as you, so I will suffer a big loss, otherwise...... Hmph, our British public has been silent for so many years, and it's almost time to make a comeback! ”

Looking at his father puzzled, Zhang Yuangong wondered.

"Dad, what do you mean by that?"

"You don't understand ......"

Picking up a watermelon from the plate, Zhang Rong said earnestly.

"People always grow up......"

As the words fell, he took another bite of the watermelon, then squinted his eyes and said.

"This melon is so sweet. The rest of the melon was sent to Yuande and told him not to worry about it in the bank. ”

In fact, Zhang Rong is no stranger to Shi Yiwen, at least before hearing his name, the reason is not because of the car dealership, even if he is as shrewd as him, he does not see what kind of changes the convenience of the carriage shop has brought about, but because of the bank, because Yulon Bank has opened five branches in the capital and Zhangjiawan in just two months, which naturally attracted Zhang Rong's attention, after all, the Zhang family originally ran a money shop business.

"I see."

Although he didn't know why his father said these words, Zhang Yuangong's biggest characteristic was that he was obedient to his father's words and never objected. After leaving his father's study, he returned to the side yard to explain a few words to his son, and then Zhang Weiliang went to his grandfather's study.

No one knew what the two of them said in the study, but that afternoon, because of illness, Zhang Weiliang, who had not gone out easily for many years, went out and went out of the city in a sedan chair.

"Edwin S...... Ahem, ahem......"

Sitting on the sedan chair, Zhang Weiliang coughed from time to time, and occasionally, his grandfather's words would appear in his mind.

"Make a lot of friends with him, it will be beneficial to the Zhang family, and the connection between him and that person is incomprehensible to outsiders...... You remember that people always grow up one day. ”

Although Zhang Weiliang rarely goes abroad for physical reasons, he knows who the person his grandfather is talking about, and of course he also knows what his grandfather means when he says this.

Some people seem to be powerful, but in fact, they ...... But it is also full of dangers.

"A companion is like a tiger, so it's better to keep some distance from him...... Cough...... Ahem......"

There was another violent cough, which made Zhang Weiliang cough so much that he couldn't even breathe......
