Zhen Yan met Wang Lei in the hall, and at the same time, a large box with a mouthful of bees was also placed in the hall. Zhen Yan looked humble and said unhurriedly: "The land outside the East Market and West Market venues started trading today, and throughout the day, thirty-five merchants came to visit, and the people who came left money and treasures, and the boxes were all left behind. ”

As he spoke, Zhen Yan took out the cloth with the property recorded and handed it to Wang Lei.

After reading it, Wang Lei couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

Thousands of pieces of jewelry, and tens of thousands of gold and silver. In just one day, so much money has been received, and I have to say that this time, the lineup of the Dao and Wu Conference is strong, and the impact is really extraordinary.

A smile appeared on Wang Lei's face, and he praised: "Very good, next, the belongings sent will be accepted one by one." ”

Zhen Yan smiled and said in her heart: The lord's idea is really not ordinary.

Wang Lei said: "The money can be collected, but we must remember that the businesses outside the venue must go through strict screening and must be strictly controlled, and I don't want anyone to ruin the reputation of Ye County and the reputation of Jizhou." ”

Zhen Yan said: "Don't worry, the lord chooses the business, and puts integrity and reputation in the first place, followed by the financial resources of the business, and finally the problem of the region." ”

Wang Lei nodded with satisfaction and said, "The money sent is in the warehouse, and these money are future military supplies!" After a pause, Wang Lei said again: "The East Market and the West City have left a piece of land for themselves, and the Zhen family is a big businessman in Jizhou, so they must also participate." ”

"Thank you, my lord!"

Zhen Yan nodded respectfully, looking excited.

It was right to come early to visit, but if you came one step later, the situation would definitely be different.

After Zhen Yan left the state pastor's mansion, his eyes were excited, and he was full of fighting spirit. In the next three days, Zhen Yan met with businessmen from all over the country in the house, accepted the self-recommendation letters of businessmen, and at the same time, also accepted countless money. However, all the money received by Zhen Yan was handed over to Wang Lei, and there was no interception.

What Zhen Yan needs is not money, but status and power. Zhen Yan selected 56 businessmen from among the merchants to participate in the purchase of land outside the venue, and 15 businessmen were excluded.

Among them, Chen's firm, represented by Chen Ke, was impressively in the queue that was excluded.

In the inn, Chen Ke had a gloomy face and a solemn expression.

This trip to Jizhou, he patted his chest to the head of the family Chen and said that he would definitely be able to do it. So far, I have spent money but have not done it, and my mood can be imagined. Especially after Chen Ke inquired about the situation, he learned that many businessmen who got the opportunity to buy land were not as strong as the Chen family in terms of strength and background, however, the Chen family was not selected.

"No, you can't just leave it at that."

Chen Ke's expression was solemn, and a touch of coldness appeared in his eyes.

"Someone!" Chen Ke commanded.

An attendant walked in, and Chen Ke ordered in a deep voice: "Take the old man's name and visit the other fourteen merchants who were not selected." The old man wants to meet these people. ”

"Yes!"

The attendants went to prepare, and in less than half an hour, merchants arrived one after another.

After the people arrived, Chen Ke's expression was solemn, and he said angrily: "Like the old man, you are here to seek wealth in Ye County. Like the old man, you all contributed money to Zhen Yan. However, Zhen Yan said it nicely, but in the end, he turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, swallowing up our money. Can't this matter just leave it at that? What do you think? ”

"Mr. Chen is right, Zhen Yan got our money, but he didn't do anything, it's really hateful. We can't get a place to buy land, so pull him down and let him know how good we are. ”

"Yes, I don't believe that Zhen Yan can cover the sky with one hand."

"Zhen Yan is also a businessman, and he is lucky to be appreciated by Wang Zhoumu, so he is where he is today. Now that he has our money, he must let him know that we are powerful, or he will forget that he is also a businessman. ”

"Find him first, let Zhen Yan make up for us, otherwise we will poke things out."

"As soon as I got the news, I personally went to Zhen's Mansion. When I saw Zhen Yan, I asked Zhen Yan to give a place, and Zhen Yan said confidently that she had made it clear at that time and there was no guarantee that it would be done. Now that things haven't worked out, he has plenty of reasons. ”

"Fart, Zhen Yan is doing this on purpose, this person is too treacherous."

More than a dozen businessmen, chattering and talking.

Chen Ke's expression was cold, and he said: "Since Zhen Yan turned his face and didn't recognize people, we will let it go." Let's go, let's go outside the state pastor's mansion and inform Wang Zhoumu of the matter. I don't believe that Zhen Yan can cover the sky with one hand, a businessman who has gained power, in the final analysis, he is still a businessman. ”

"Yes, go to the governor's house. No matter how big Zhen Yan is, can he be bigger than Wang Zhoumu? He couldn't have covered the sky with one hand. ”

"Good idea, this time it will definitely make Zhen Yan taste the bitter fruit."

A cadre of people was easily instigated by Chen Ke, united together, and went to the state pastor's mansion.

……

Governor's Mansion, Study.

Wang Lei was writing some questions about punctuation and arithmetic, and Huang Zhong's voice came from outside the room: "Lord, there is a group of businessmen outside the mansion who are making trouble, saying that they want to sue Zhen Yan for corruption and perversion of the law. ”

"Please come to the hall, I'll be there later."

Wang Lei put down the pen in his hand, and after a while, he understood that some businessmen had spent money and did not get results.

Leaving the study and coming to the hall, Chen Ke and merchants from all walks of life saluted.

Chen Ke sat down and said without humility or arrogance: "Lord Wang, the old Chen Ke is the cousin of Xiapi Chen. This time, Lao Yu came to Ye County on behalf of Chen's firm to seek business opportunities, aiming to strengthen trade between Jizhou and Xuzhou. ”

Wang Lei said with a smile: "Welcome, Chen's firm can come, this official is very honored." ”

Chen Ke sighed lightly and continued: "My lord, the old man is a businessman and pays attention to integrity. When visiting Zhen Yan, Zhen Yan promised well, and Zhen Yan also received the old money. It is incomprehensible that Chen's firm has been excluded from the current nominal purchase of land. Money is small money, and old decay doesn't care about this little money. ”

Speaking of excitement, Chen Ke said impassionedly: "In terms of strength, Chen's firm is not inferior to any businessman; In terms of ability, Chen's firm has thousands of customers and can ensure the safety of doing business. Compared to many of the chosen merchants, Chan is stronger than them. Chen's firm came to Ye County with sincerity, but now it is this result, which is chilling. ”

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the businessmen spoke one after another.

The public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable, Wang Lei looked calm and listened carefully.

Waiting for the businessmen present to stop talking, Wang Lei said: "You have a point, but what is going on, you have to ask Zhen Yan to get the answer." The official sent someone to invite Zhen Yan and asked him to give an explanation. ”

"Thank you Wang Zhoumu, in fact, Zhen Yan is still good, you can change your mistakes."

Chen Keren is old and refined, and he said good things for Zhen Yan.

Wang Lei shook his head in his heart, this Chen Ke is really an old fox, he says cruel things first, and then he says good things. Wang Lei raised his head and ordered in a deep voice: "Come, notify Zhen Yan and let him come to the house immediately." ”

"No!"

Outside the hall, the soldier bowed.
