Zhou Qingli didn't care about Zhou Zheng's purchase of the shop, and said with a thoughtful look in her eyes, "Your eldest brother can't stay in the Guozijian all the time, I plan to transfer him to the household department and seek a seven-grade product, what do you think?" ”

Zhou Zheng saw that Father Zhou really didn't care about him doing business, so he put his mind at ease and thought about it.

With Zhou Fang's Jinshi background and two years of teaching experience in Guozijian, if he plans properly, it is more than enough to release a magistrate of a high-class county, or a fat shortage in the six departments.

The problem is that Daddy Zhou has just risen to the top and can't do too much. Second, the eunuch party is powerful, and the officialdom is boiling like porridge, and if you are not careful, you may be planted in it, which is dangerous.

Zhou Zheng thought for a while and suggested, "Or, you resign, right?" ”

This is the second time Zhou Zheng has suggested, Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng, with a rare smile on her face, and said: "I know you're worried about your father, but it's okay, although the eunuch party is powerful, there are still many direct ministers, and it is enough for self-preservation." ”

Zhou Zheng heard that Zhou Qingli should have a backer.

But even so, Zhou Zheng still shook his head and said: "The eunuch party is powerful, no one can resist, and no backer is stable." ”

At this time, there is indeed no safe backer, the apocalypse will die, Wei Zhongxian will fall, Chongzhen is repeatedly suspicious, who dares to say that he can be an officialdom tumbler at this time?

Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng seriously, pondered his words, smiled calmly for a moment, and said, "Don't worry about this for now, let's talk about you." ”

"Me?" Zhou Zheng is a little unsure.

Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng, paused, and said, "You are crazy, you can't participate in the exam anymore, I plan to get you an official first, so as not to have any more accidents in the future, and it can be regarded as a way back." ”

Zhou Zheng blinked, and was suddenly stunned.

Since he woke up, he has always had a vague plan for the future, probably to make money first, and then he will go to seek official positions when he is almost ready.

As soon as Father Zhou said this, he realized that he was already 'crazy', how could a madman take the examination and be admitted to the Jinshi?

In other words, his fame has stopped at lifting people.

Zhou Zheng has already checked in detail, and people are qualified to be officials, such as academic officials, such as seeking a county.

He thought in his heart, but still looked at Father Zhou and said, "What kind of official will I get?" ”

Zhou Qingli said, "There are a few directors in the ministry, if you are willing to go, I will say hello to you." ”

As a member of the ministry, arranging a miscellaneous officer, Zhou Qingli can still do it easily. And the position is low and inconspicuous, even if you know that Zhou is a 'madman', due to some unspoken rules, everyone turns a blind eye.

Listening to Zhou Qingli's words, Zhou Zheng also seriously thought about his future path for the first time...... and the road of the Great Ming.

He would never break his knees, kneel and kowtow, and shamelessly flatter the Manchus as a slave.

Zhou Zheng needed to think seriously about the future and said, "I'll think about it first." ”

Zhou Qingli looked at the second son and sighed silently in her heart. After a mad illness, the whole person changed a lot, sometimes good and sometimes bad, which made him worried.

The place is placed in the ministry, and I don't feel at ease, I want to watch and protect it.

Seeing Zhou Zheng say this, Zhou Qingli didn't say anything more, and said, "Well, control yourself during this time, and don't let the outside spread about your madness." ”

Zhou Zheng nodded, thinking while eating.

At the end of the meal, Zhou Zheng walked out of the dining room and returned to the study, he suddenly slapped his head and said angrily: "I forgot to talk about family affairs." ”

However, this is not important, at the moment, Zhou Zheng needs to think seriously and plan his future path.

Sitting on a chair with his legs on the table, Zhou Zheng folded his hands, his expression was calm, and his eyes flickered.

The Ming Dynasty in front of him is the world of the eunuch party, which basically controls both the military and the political, and no one can fight.

After next year, Chongzhen came to power and liquidated the eunuch party, so the return of the Donglin Party will be another big pit.

And Chongzhen, is a face-changing monster, a bad one is to go to prison and die, he has been in power for more than ten years, changed more than 30 first assistants, hundreds of books, never seen in ancient times, among these people, very few have died well.

These are not real threats, the real threat is that the Manchus entered the customs and broke the knees of the Han people, and they all became kneeling minions.

There are also those massacres, the sentence 'keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head', deeply stinged Zhou Zheng.

The candles flickered and crackled, and the room was silent. I don't know how long it took, Zhou Zheng's deep voice suddenly came from the room.

"I Han people will never be slaves!"

……

Early the next morning, the refreshed Zhou Zheng took Liu Liuzhen and a group of family members to the shop that already belonged to him with all the tools.

As a result, I saw that the door of the shop was smashed open, and there was dung everywhere on the walls, on the roof, inside and outside the house, and the smell was stinking!

Liu Liuzhe's face turned blue with anger, and he said angrily, "Second young master, it must be the one surnamed Zhong who did it, let's look for him!" ”

Zhou Zheng's face was indifferent, his eyes were dancing with flames, he looked up at Zhong Fenteng, it turned out to be such a low-level villain!

The seven family members behind Liu Liuzhen were also indignant, shouting to find Zhong Fenteng to settle accounts!

The Zhou family is now the official eunuch home of the six-grade foreigner, and the Zhong family is only a seven-grade thing, which is not at the same level at all, because Liu Liuzhen and the family members are full of righteous indignation and anger.

"It seems that just beating up won't solve the problem." Zhou Zheng looked at the messy shop and said lightly.

Liu Liuzhen didn't care, and said, "Second young master, I was beaten lightly before, but this time I will fight to the death, see if they dare to provoke our Zhou family!" ”

Zhou Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Liu Liuzhen and said in a low voice: "You slipped away quietly, I suspect that Zhong Fenteng and they are watching us nearby, find out for me!" ”

When Liu Liuzhen heard this, he immediately said in a low voice: "Okay, second young master, look at it!" ”

After Liu Liuzhen finished speaking, he said loudly to the angry family in front of him, "This is the shop that the second young master bought yesterday, let's clean it up first, and when it is cleaned up, let's go to the Zhong family!" ”

All the family members immediately shouted a few words, and then endured the stench and began to clean up.

Zhou Zheng couldn't stand the smell, and stood far away, watching the group of family members clean up.

This shop is in the northernmost part of Nanju Xianfang, behind which is a river, which is a remote place, but there is a river, and it is much easier to clean.

On the second floor of a restaurant not far from Zhou Zheng's shop, Zhong Fenteng watched the Zhou family cleaning up the dung, his heart was refreshed, and he laughed happily on his face: "Zhou Zheng, today is just the beginning, I will throw it to you once a day in the future, see how you do business, hahaha!" ”

This time there were two family members behind him, and one of them said hatefully: "Young master, I think it's too cheap to be surnamed Zhou, and the young master who harmed him spent so much more money, why don't we find an opportunity to tie him up and teach him a hard lesson!" ”

Another said coldly, "Young master, I think it's too troublesome, why don't we burn this shop down tonight, see what else can we do with the surname Zhou!" ”

Zhong Fenteng became even more compelled when he heard this, and said, "Okay, when they clean up, we will burn down his shop at night!" ”

The two family members naturally echoed for a while, and after watching for a while, one of the family members said, "Young master, don't forget the time." ”

Zhong Fenteng's expression was awe-inspiring, he looked up at the sky, and said with the pleasure in his heart, "Don't worry, there is still time, I want to take a good look at Zhou Zheng's face!" ”

The two family members didn't speak, they did still have time, since the young master likes to watch, then just watch.

The shop that Zhou Zheng bought was not big in itself, and Zhou Zheng also planned to decorate it in pieces, so he had no scruples about cleaning it with the family, and it was almost cleaned up soon.

Zhou Zheng watched from the side, and said, "The one on the left is useless, smashed, clear a road, pave the slate, the other two, I will give you drawings tomorrow, according to my requirements for decoration......"

In these years, it is very simple to decorate the house or something, and the families are all proficient, there is no problem, and they should all respond.

Zhou Zheng was commanding here, Liu Liuzhen didn't know where to come out again, and leaned into Zhou Zheng's ear and whispered, "Second young master, I found it, in a restaurant not far behind us, surnamed Zhong and two family members." ”
