Chapter 259: The Salt Merchant's Traitor
Zhou Zheng now has countless pairs of eyes staring, and his Jiujiang Pavilion naturally falls into the eyes of many people.
He Qitu has now resigned, hurried to Cui's mansion from the outside, looked at Cui Chengxiu and said: "My lord, this Zhou Zheng's Qingwang suddenly doesn't know how much to raise, and it is even more difficult to deal with him." ”
Cui Chengxiu was writing something in the study, listening to He Qitu's words, his brows furrowed, the pen that was originally flowing like water stopped, and immediately put down the pen, looked up at He Qitu, but did not speak.
He competed with Zhou Zheng for patience, and the more calm and calm Zhou Zheng became, the more impatient and restless he became.
Zhou Zheng was doing things in an orderly manner, and Cui Chengxiu gradually became a little flustered in his heart.
What other means does Zhou Zheng have? What exactly does he want to do?
Cui Chengxiu couldn't think about it, thought for a while, and said, "You prepare a gift and send it to him." ”
He Qitu was stunned and said, "My lord, you want to give him a gift?" ”
Cui Chengxiu's expression was as usual, and he said, "Be casual, don't be higher than ten taels." ”
He Qitu suddenly understood that Cui Chengxiu wanted to test Zhou Zheng in this matter, or give Zhou Zheng a signal.
"Yes, Xia Guan understands." He Qitu said.
Cui Chengxiu looked at the words on the table and said, "I heard that Zhou Shangshu Zhishi was retained by the emperor?" ”
He Qitu looked stunned and said, "Yes." The emperor recruited Zhou Shangshu into the palace and had dinner together. ”
A smile appeared on Cui Chengxiu's face, and he said: "Zhou Mao has been in the dynasty for many years, and there is no merit and hard work, and the emperor will not let him go." ”
He Qitu saw a smile on Cui Chengxiu's face, and said cautiously: "My lord, I heard that Eunuch Wei has rarely left the palace recently, and he has been going to the Qianqing Palace more often than before. ”
Cui Chengxiu naturally knew about Qian Jiazheng's impeachment of Wei Zhongxian's ten crimes, and his face became more and more relaxed, and said: "When the first emperor died, we were all on the side of the couch, and the first emperor and the emperor said, 'Loyal and virtuous, and prudent, you can count big things', I think the emperor understands that the court is inseparable from Duke Wei." The young people will not succeed if they are unpredictable. ”
He Qitu was a little far away from the high-level, and listening to Cui Chengxiu's words, he felt a lot more relieved.
At least, Wei Zhongxian will be fine in a short period of time, the eunuch party, it is still the eunuch party!
He Qitu responded to Cui Chengxiu's words, and quickly prepared a gift, which was an inkstone and sent it to Jiujiang Pavilion.
Zhou Zheng is still in Jiujiang Pavilion at the moment, arranging for Kou Huaiyi and others to do things.
The 'library' had just been established, and many people came on the first day, and all kinds of problems arose, and Zhou Zheng needed to correct them, make up for all kinds of problems, and strengthen some management rules.
In addition to Kou Huaiyi and other down-and-out scholars who were originally in Zhouji, there were nearly seven or eight newcomers who stayed in Jiujiang Pavilion, scattered on various floors, doing all kinds of things.
Kou Huaiyi is more calm than Zhang Heyi, and he also performs most of the things in Jiujiang Pavilion, he is holding an inkstone in his hand at this time, and said: "The owner, this is sent by Cui Shangshu's family, saying that it is to congratulate the opening of Jiujiang Pavilion." ”
Zhou Zheng looked at it, couldn't tell the good from the bad, thought about it, and said: "Throw it in the garbage heap on the side of the road, and in the future, the Cui family or something of unknown origin will be handled as such." ”
Kou Huaiyi knew the grievances between Zhou Zheng and the Cui family, and said, "Yes." ”
Zhou Zheng hummed and said: "Be cautious about the issuance of reading cards, take your time, you can't put all of them in one swarm, and check clearly, don't let people with ulterior motives come in." ”
Most of the Jiujiang Pavilion is a book, if it is a little hot, it can really be burned!
Kou Huaiyi looked straight and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best to ensure that nothing happens!" ”
Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "I know that you have a good talent, but your luck is not good, so let's help me do it at the end of the year, and next year, I will recommend you to join the company." ”
Kou Huaiyi had been waiting for Zhou Zheng's words, and hurriedly raised his hand excitedly and said, "Thank you, owner." ”
Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said, "Tell others that as long as they do well, I will also give them a chance, don't think that they will do a small job here for a lifetime." ”
Kou Huaiyi thought of Zhang Heyi and said, "Yes, I will tell them the owner's words later." ”
Zhou Zheng didn't speak again, cleaning up the table, there were too many people coming today, he needed to digest it well.
Until dark, Zhou Zheng didn't go back to the house, there were too many things in Jiujiang Pavilion, he inspected them four or five times one by one, and he also ate dinner here.
Kou Huaiyi and the others were very busy, and at the beginning, there were always too many things.
Until the time passed, Zhou Zheng's room was still brightly lit.
At this time, Liu Liuzhen quietly walked in, walked in front of Zhou Zheng, and said in a mysterious whisper: "Second young master, someone asks to see you." ”
Zhou Zheng looked at the information of today's person in his hand without raising his head, and said, "What person?" ”
"Yang Sishao." Liu Liuzhen said in a lower voice.
Zhou Zheng's expression moved slightly, raised his head and said, "What is he here for?" ”
Liu Liuzhen said: "He said that he came to surrender." ”
Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, with an inexplicable expression on his face, and said to himself: "Surrender? ”
Liu Liuzhen looked at Zhou Zheng and nodded heavily.
Looking at Liu Liuzhe's expression, Zhou Zhengruo had a sense and said, "Take him in." ”
Liu Liuzhen agreed, and quickly turned around and went out.
Yang Sishao was dressed in black, and he also wore a cloak to cover his face.
Zhou Zheng sat on the chair, looking at Yang Sishao's outfit, smiling silently.
Yang Sishao's swollen eyes became more and more swollen, he took off his cloak and stood in front of Zhou Zheng, with a look of indecision on his face.
He looked at Zhou Zheng's smiling face, gritted his teeth and said, "Master Zhou, I'm here to surrender." ”
"You came to Toucheng, you should have brought a certificate of surrender, right?" Zhou Zhengdao. This Yang Sishao is really interesting, he actually rebelled against the salt merchants? Is there something wrong with the salt merchant, or does this Yang Sishao know that he is going to be abandoned, or is it a trap?
Yang Sishao looked at Zhou Zheng, his expression became more and more struggling, but he still took out an account book from his arms and said, "This is a list of all the industries of the Yang family and the person in charge, I know, this is very useful to you." ”
Zhou Zheng squinted, looked at Yang Sishao, and did not reach out to pick it up.
The salt merchant didn't attack him once or twice, and his counterattack was not once or twice, so it was not strange for the salt merchant to see some of his purposes, but it was a little unusual for Yang Si to directly hold the Yang family's account books and rosters.
Yang Sishao looked at Zhou Zheng's expression, twisted his eyebrows, raised his hand and said, "I don't want to die!" ”
Zhou Zheng looked at him and didn't move for a long time, until Yang Sishao couldn't hold it anymore, he said: "I also want the information of the eighteen big salt merchants in Huaiyang, in addition, the information of the Fan family, the Jin family, the Liang family, the Tian family, the Wang family, the Zhai family, the Erwang, and the Huang family, and the specific names and information, I will let someone send them to you, and you will quietly find out for me." ”
Yang Sishao looked at Zhou Zheng with a shocked expression, his heart was shocked and a little puzzled.
Didn't Zhou Zheng go to the Yang family? What does he want the information of so many big businessmen? Even if he has someone in the palace, his father is a close minister of the new emperor, is it possible to become an enemy of the world's businessmen?
