"No, that's not right." The joy on Steward Qian's face had not yet dissipated, and he turned into a look of doubt again, muttering to himself.

"What's wrong, Mr. Qian, what's wrong?" Zhiwen asked, and everyone else also looked at Qian Steward.

Before Steward Qian could speak, Song Xiance preemptively said, "Something is wrong, Brother Zhi!" Thinking about the same knowledge, he should know that Xinzhizhou is about to take office, and the surveyor buys this kind of thing, which is rich in oil and water, and it is common sense to wait for the arrival of the Zhizhou Lord, and the new Zhizhou is not familiar with the local area, and most of the official purchase list is also drawn up by the same knowledge, and generally will not refute the face of the same knowledge, and the same knowledge does not make too much money to the Zhizhou Lord, he can get a lot of favor, why not do it? ”

"Exactly." Steward Qian continued, "This You Tongzhi is acting in such a hurry, it seems that he wants to make the official purchase case an iron case before Lord Zhizhou arrives, is it..."

Having said this, the money manager stopped, but his eyes looked at Zhiwen, the meaning was very clear, could it be that Zhuolu Trading Company had a personal grudge with this You Tongzhi?

"What are you looking at me for?" Zhiwen saw that everyone else looked at him with Steward Qian, and argued, "We are all from northern Shaanxi, and we can't beat it with this fellow." ”

"That's... Could it be that Zhou Chengyun and Zhou Gongzi have a gap with this person? The money manager turned his suspicion to another big owner he had never met.

This is to ask the people who stayed in the mountains, "Song Xiance, what did Brother Zhou do when he was in the trading company?" Have you ever visited someone in the government's house? Zhiwen asked.

It stands to reason that Zhou Chengyun is good at dancing with long sleeves, and these things will not go wrong, but he can't guarantee any personal grievances.

"Zhou Gongzi ran to the state capital with gifts, and the governor was still in office at that time, and since then, our business has been booming, and he has never had time to go again, and he is in a hurry to return to Jinnan when he is free." Song Xiance replied, "I haven't heard him say that there is any conflict with the local government. ”

It seems that it is not Zhou Chengyun's problem, with his character, if he really offends the local acquaintance, he will not explain it to everyone, besides, Zhou Chengyun has invested so much silver, and he is still running around for the trading company at the moment, I believe he will not do such a stupid thing and cut off his own money.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Qian." Song Caijie, who had never spoken, spoke, "You said that You Tongzhi was in a hurry, how could he be in a hurry?" Do you send some soldiers to surround the trading company? But it was Song Caijie who noticed the unusualness in Steward Qian's words.

"That's it, there's nothing to be afraid of just sending some soldiers," Li Zhiye said, "We can use a procrastination trick, and when Lord Zhizhou arrives and everything is solved, I don't believe it, the officers and soldiers dare to kill our people!" ”

"They won't kill people openly, but they can arrest our people and beat the board, and there are fewer people who die under this water and fire stick?" Steward Qian said quietly, "As for why he is in a hurry..."

Speaking of this, Steward Qian stood up and shook his head, "Everyone, I'm sorry, You Tongzhi is tricking Doctor Sun to go to the state capital as a hostage in the name of seeing a doctor." ”

The reason why he didn't say it at the beginning was because he was afraid that once this matter was said, the people of Zhuolushan would no longer be able to calmly listen to him finish the story of the matter and discuss countermeasures, but now that someone has already asked, it is time to say it.

Sure enough, before Steward Qian's voice fell, Li Dingguo slammed the table and stood up, "This dog official! Then he pointed to the nose of the money manager and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier, I'll take someone there..."

"Sit down!" Zhiwen shouted, "Do you want to rebel?" Do you think we can beat down the state capital? Besides, where did you put Uncle Sun's life and death? ”

When Li Dingguo heard this, he sat down weakly, he knew that the state capital was located in Liangtian Tunbao, it was a military fort, and the defense was still very good, Zhuolushan is now plus the Mongolian people who came back with Zhiwen, and there are less than 2,000 people who can fight, and no matter how weak the officers and soldiers are, Li Dingguo does not think that he can build the state capital with high walls and deep ditches, and Zhiwen is right, if he really takes people to fight, then Dr. Sun's life is worried.

In fact, it is not a question of whether the state government can fight it down, but whether it can be reversed.

The Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, the imperial authority is deep-rooted, ordinary people are not to the kind of homeless people who are against and die, and if they don't rebel and die, they will not think of rebellion at all, not to mention that Zhuolushan is now in full swing, you have to take everyone to work hard, so that the days are more prosperous, that did not say, the mountain people must follow wholeheartedly, if it is a rebellion, let everyone become a thief, and live a life of displacement that is worse than fleeing, that is not many people will respond.

Seeing that Li Dingguo wilted, Zhiwen was also secretly glad that he didn't let Sun Kewang come, otherwise he wouldn't have blown up when he heard that his father-in-law had an accident.

Steward Qian was blushing by Li Dingguo's words just now, and Zhiwen explained to everyone again, "Everyone, don't blame Mr. Qian, if he comes and tells him about Uncle Sun's detention, can we still listen to him finish speaking?" ”

Zhiwen was worried at the moment, this You Tongzhi was mostly coming for him, more precisely, for Zhuolu Trading Company, and the one behind the command was probably the Fan family in Zhangjiakou.

Fan Yongdou's death, most of the Fan family accounted for Zhou Chengyun's head, and Zhou Chengyun in Zhuolu Trading Company these days, although he deliberately concealed it, but if people don't know, unless they do nothing, the major shopkeepers of the southern merchants in Zhangjiakou collectively disappeared and replaced, with a little snack, you can know, under the vine and melon, you can find out the traces of Zhou Chengyun and Zhuolu Trading Company.

The Fan family is deeply rooted in the Xuanfu and Jingshi lines, and it is not surprising that it is just an ordinary thing to be able to call a state of Tongzhi, and it is not surprising that You Tongzhi is anxious to detain Dr. Sun before he arrives in Xinzhizhou, and intends to use officials to buy the head of the bank to embarrass Zhuolu Trading Company.

"What Brother Zhi said is, let's think about it carefully, how to get through it." Song Xiance said, "You Tongzhi is probably deliberately trying to deal with our Zhuolu Trading Company. ”

After speaking, Chong Zhiwen nodded, obviously what Zhiwen was thinking, he also guessed, but the money manager was here, and it was inconvenient to say it clearly.

"The best way is to delay, as Brother Li said, as soon as Lord Zhizhou arrives, I don't dare to make a mistake with Tongzhi, but Dr. Sun is in his hands, which is troublesome." Steward Qian said.

"And the brothers in the trading house, they can't be ignored." Li Ding National Road.

"Go find Ma Er and ask where the person who sent the name card from Jinyang is." Zhiwen commanded.

This Lord Zhizhou is Geng Ruqi's student, I'm afraid he won't be able to take office for a while, seeing that he only sent his name card with the other two, it should be to stay in Jinyang to help, and wait for the bandit head to arrive, Geng Ruqi's governor has been decided, before he will set off, and now I can only see if these three names can be obtained in time.
