"If you go back to the adult, it's a small striker" Wang Tianlin plans to pour beans into the bamboo tube, anyway, the little life is here, try to survive

"And who's your striker?" Zheng Jue frowned slightly when he heard that there was a striker, it seems that this matter is not so simple

"The small striker is a big Qing forehead, no, it's a Tartar, it's a person sent by the Tartars, give the small money and let the small one obey him" Sure enough, Zheng Jue was secretly shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that the organization had already reached out to Guangxi, and he didn't know what the name of their organization was, which was really sad

"They gave it to you?" Zheng Jue asked curiously where this thing that almost killed him came from

"No, it's not, it's the little one that the ancestor got from Liaodong back then, and left it until now, and it was bought at a high price by Shangfeng, let me feed the poison on the arrows and assassinate Master Ma" Okay, it's really like a big white, everyone turned their eyes on Ma Shiying, it turned out that the person who beat him was Old Man Ma, Ma Shiying coughed embarrassedly

"Bastard, when did the old man offend you?!" Ma Shiying asked sharply, not knowing where he had provoked them

"Lord Hui, Shangfeng said that you can't be allowed to take office no matter what, otherwise the layout of the Qing Dynasty and the Forehead Tartars in Guangxi will all be abolished," Wang Tianlin replied with a shudder

Zheng Jue waved his hand, "Take him down, don't make any mistakes"

Wang Tianlin was taken down, and everyone looked at each other with a look at each other, not knowing what the old man Ma had to do with the layout of the Tartars

"If Tarzan doesn't take office, who will benefit him the most?" Zhu Youlang touched his chin and said

Everyone said a name in unison: "Zhu Zhijian!" ”

"Come on, go and call the shopkeeper Sun and the waiter" Zheng Jue took advantage of the fact that the two did not come, wrote the warrant to go out of the city, and after the two arrived, he gave the warrant to the shopkeeper Qian

"Money shopkeeper, you take fifty people to Wuzhou, check on Zhu Zhijian, this old thing, who you have a close relationship with, report something quickly, you take the rest of the people and Jing Yuanwei's soldiers, and search for any suspicious people in the city" Zheng Jue sat in the lobby on the first floor of the guard, and sent out one order after another

After the order was issued, Zheng Jue left the guard with everyone and returned to Zheng's mansion, and Li Lin saw Zhu Youlang hurriedly coming over

"Brother Zhu, I heard that someone is going to kill you, are you okay? I'll take a look" Ma Shiying was on the side, looking at Li Lin with a straight face

"Someone is trying to kill me! Girl, you're not married yet! Li Lin glanced at Ma Shiying when she heard this

"Dad, you're fine, you can still stand" Everyone heard the difference in Li Lin's attitude towards Old Man Ma and Zhu Youlang, and almost didn't hold back their internal injuries

Or Zheng Jue came over first to break the embarrassment, "Uncle Wang, you will inform all the merchants in Jingyuan tomorrow to gather in Yixiang Building, I have something to say"

After everyone fought and made trouble, the Zheng Mansion spent a quiet night, but the other mansions in the city were not calm, and the families received the news in the afternoon that the Wang family's property had been all seized, and the city gate of Jingyuan City was also under martial law, and the streets were full of soldiers, back and forth

In the evening, the gentry in the city all received Zheng Jue's invitation, and they were waiting for tomorrow's lunch in fear, not knowing if it was a Hongmen banquet

The next day, most of the gentry arrived at Yixiang Building at ten o'clock, looking at Yixiang Building, which had been taken over by the military, the gentry whispered and exchanged gossip from their inquire

Zheng Jue knew that he would arrive at Yixiang Building at more than twelve o'clock at noon, and as soon as Zheng Jue came, the kitchen began to serve, and with the arrival of Zheng Jue, the gentry also stopped the hustle and bustle

"Good afternoon, gentlemen, I'm Jing Yuanwei, no, now I'm the chief soldier of Jingyuan Town, Zheng Jue" The gentry saw that Zheng Jue didn't want to be poor, their hearts calmed down, and they looked at the dishes that were served, but they had their own small calculations in their hearts

"I believe everyone knows, the owner of Yixiang Building, Wang Tianlin has been taken by me, you may not know the reason, then I will tell you the reason for taking him, after investigation, Jingyuan merchant Wang Tianlin has assassinated the official many times, as well as His Royal Highness King Gui, Master Ma Shiyingma, and colluded with Jiannu, and now he is being raided, you take it as a warning, take it as a warning, hahaha......"

As soon as Zheng Jue's words fell, it was like a fried pot in an instant, and the gentry whispered something one after another, "My lord, we didn't collude with Jiannu" "Yes, my lord, we are all businessmen who do our duty" Zheng Jue pressed his hand and signaled people to be quiet

"I know that you are all businessmen, but Wang Tianlin's incident reminds us that Jingyuan needs someone to take care of it, so I decided to set up the Rongchang Chamber of Commerce to be responsible for managing Jingyuan's business activities" As soon as they heard what kind of chamber of commerce was going to be established, the gentry instantly quieted down, it turned out that they didn't come to lose their heads, that's good

"My lord, what does this chamber of commerce do?" An older businessman asked Zheng Jue

"This old gentleman, good question, our Jingyuan is a military town, but with so many merchants and households, the imperial court did not send us a subordinate to us, so this chamber of commerce is equivalent to our Jingyuan yamen, Jingyuan's major affairs are handed over to the chamber of commerce to manage, in addition to Jingyuan is a military town, taxes do not need to be handed over to the imperial court, so the distribution of taxes will be handed over to the chamber of commerce to manage" As soon as Zheng Jue's words came out, it set off an uproar on the spot, and businessmen were in charge, which was something that had never been heard of for thousands of years

"Is this true? So who has the final say in this chamber of commerce? ”

"Of course this is not a joke, Zheng is joking, I need to invite you here? As for the Chamber of Commerce, who has the final say, of course, it is the big guy who votes, here I am talking about it, the Chamber of Commerce is mainly responsible for the construction of some public facilities, such as the construction of schools and roads, the health of the city and the maintenance of the city, as well as the military expenses of the army, of course, the military expenses of this army are fixed, and forty percent of the annual taxes are paid" Everyone heard Zheng Jue say this, and they couldn't help but be excited, whose store has a good way to make money, and naturally the business is good, hearing Zheng Jue say this, they all said that they want to join the Rongchang Chamber of Commerce

"Everyone, what about this number of votes, a total of 100 votes, according to the proportion of taxes paid by everyone this year, at most each family cannot exceed 30 votes" Zheng Jue pulled out the local council in advance, planning to test the water, anyway, the army is in his own hands, and he is not afraid to try things

"Everyone, in addition, also, if Jingyuan has any case, it will also be handled by the Chamber of Commerce, you can go if you have time, or you can not go, but I suggest that you send a stable family member to be responsible for this matter, in addition, if there is any conflict between you, the Chamber of Commerce has the power to mediate, at least it is related to our Jingyuan's face" Zheng Jue said with a smile, and all the gentry present said that they must be sure
