On the night of August 15, in the end, Liu Zheng did not 'compose' any poems, as he thought in his heart, he was just a small workshop owner in the later life, and he was not a cultural person, where did he know so many poems and songs, and he could remember and memorize life It was already very good if he first saw it, so he just sang a song, and sang it barely to meet the occasion, because on August 15, he admired the moon and flowers, and the name of the flower was accounted for two words in the name of the song that Liu Zheng sang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The name of that song is Chrysanthemum Terrace......

After more than ten consecutive days, Liu Zheng did not go to Li Run'er, not because he didn't want to go, but because he was entangled in things.

It's not a big deal, on August 15, Liu Zheng in order to improve the lives of the four brothers in the hall who came to Cao Gang, chartered six restaurants for them to open and rub a meal, one of them had a wave of people who drank big, one person said that he had never been to the Qinglou in his life, and wanted to see how the girl in the Qinglou was different from the outside, after all, they were all the masters of the field and had never seen the world, if Liu Zheng hadn't taken him in back then, now he didn't know whether it was life or death, and the rest of the people immediately screamed to go.

These people are all old people under Liu Zheng's hands, and they are part of the first homeless people to take in, Liu Zheng is given to them in full according to the monthly salary of five taels of silver, and they have spare money in their hands, and it is no problem to go to a green house.

went to the end of the accident, very bloody bridge, met the second son of Cao Hai, the leader of the Cao Gang, that is, Cao Lin, the hall master of Fuhu Hall, two waves of people in order to fight for a woman, from the beginning of the scolding to the big fight, until the end of the trouble to the point that the government had to come forward.

As a result, after the official servant came, he asked about the situation clearly, and directly put down a sentence and left, and the official said that this is your own family matter, and you can solve it yourself, even if you kill all the people on the other side, it has nothing to do with the government.

Then the two sides stared at each other for a moment, and then opened the film again, this time they both gave a dead hand, and it didn't take long for someone to die, the person who died first was someone from Fuhutang, and when the people from Fuhutang saw that someone was dead on their side, they immediately began to call people back to get weapons, and the people on Liu Zheng's side were not to be outdone, and they also sent people back to call people.

Although there was no real fight in the end, but there was also a mortal feud, Liu Zheng's side of the people went back to total, knowing that this matter would not be easily settled, the other party would definitely find the field, and it would not be one or two people who died at that time, so he reported the matter to Pei Qiu, Pei Qiu didn't take it seriously at first, but after two days, the two sides had a big conflict on the dock, this time there were hundreds of dead people, Pei Qiu knew that the matter was big, and hurriedly reported the matter to Liu Zheng.

At this time, although the dog-headed military division who can fly feather returned to Qingzhou and was not by Liu Zheng's side, but Jiang Mingda was not, Jiang Mingda discussed with Liu Zheng after learning about this, and felt that this was a good opportunity to win the Cao Gang.

But Liu Zheng didn't think so, it was obviously not possible to come hard, especially after Bai Hongru appeared in Linqing, he acted more cautiously.

Even if Bai Hongru didn't appear, just by relying on the intricate relationship between the 10,000 people of the Cao Gang plus the Yunjun and the banknotes, it would be impossible for Liu Zheng to blindly use these four people to force them, which would be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

Since the big conflict, there have been no major conflicts these days, but small frictions will come from time to time when working on the docks, and people on both sides know in their hearts that a bigger conflict is brewing, and it may break out at any time.

On this day, it was the last day of August, early in the morning, Liu Zheng took Jiang Mingda, Liu Kou, and Pei Qiu to the Lion Street Wharf, one of the eight major wharves in Linqing.

In the best private room of a restaurant, looking at the dense figures on the Lion Street wharf, Liu Zheng smiled lightly and said: "This Linqing is worthy of being the first wharf in the world, Matang has shrunk for less than a month, and has resumed its former prosperity. ”

"What's more, there are thirty-two flower willow lanes and seventy-two orchestra buildings, we came to Linqing, these thirty-two flower willow lanes and seventy-two orchestra buildings have really not been seen, is it real or fake?"

Men are talking about the topic, maybe when they will turn to this aspect, Jiang Mingda, Liu Kou, and Pei Qiu all smiled.

Pei Qiu continued: "Childe, there is indeed one, but before Ma Tang was too ruthlessly oppressed, the small merchants and hawkers were pressed and had no way to live, and the big businessmen would not go to these places, so naturally they were a little declining, but after more than a month's effort, these places have begun to recover again, if the son is interested, his subordinates can lead the son to see it another day!" ”

Liu Zheng stretched out his hand and gently nodded Pei Qiu, and said with a smile: "You kid, say this in front of my uncle, is this giving me eye medicine?" ”

"Haha!" Jiang Mingda smiled indifferently, in his heart, it was normal for a man to go to the Qinglou, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Liu Kou and Pei Qiu also laughed.

After the three of them laughed, Liu Zheng's expression became serious: "Linqing City has a population of one million, of which the local population is only more than 70,000 people, and foreign merchants are ten times the local population, it can be said that the Central Plains merchants are gathered here, and there are countless skilled craftsmen, such a treasure land, but it was harmed by a small horse hall into this ghostly appearance, it can be seen how great the harm of eunuchs is, if I win the world, this kind of thing must not occur, not only eunuchs, but also civil officials, if the civil officials who control this place are a huge greed, is a cool official, think about it." What are the consequences? ”

"Although Emperor Taizu is a capable person, he tortures the officials strictly, and it is not a problem to peel the skin and fill the grass, but even so, does it block the greed of these people? No! Why can't it be stopped, just like that madman Mu Ying said, when the rule of man is greater than the rule of law, this situation will inevitably occur, so there must be a law, and there must be a good regulatory system! ”

"Daming also supervises the system, but who is the person who supervises it, it is Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei is a spy agency, how can the spy agency act as a supervision unit?"

"Alas, forget it, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the matter in front of us first!" Don't look at what Liu Zheng said about a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, but there is a sense of beating in these words.

Who is the beating, Jiang Mingda, Liu Kou, and Pei Qiu know it well, Jiang Mingda and Liu Kou unconsciously set their eyes on Pei Qiu, Pei Qiu lowered his head, the reason for this beating is to say that his subordinates had a conflict with Neng Feiyu and Mu Ying before.

Now Pei Qiu is in charge of the entire Shandong secret agent, Mu Ying and can Feiyu began to revise the constitution after returning to Qingzhou, and at the same time promulgated some systems, one of Pei Qiu's secret agents concealed four acres of land at home, and was reported by the people of the same village, this person felt that his identity was superior, and recently climbed the road of Pei Qiu, and as a result, he used the relationship to find the whistleblower from the government, and this person led the person to break the whistleblower's leg, and at the same time put down the cruel words, very who is against this is an example, can Feiyu send someone to arrest after learning about it, As a result, this person not only resisted but also injured a few catchers, and fled to Linqing afterwards, and complained fiercely in front of Pei Qiu, and Pei Qiu took advantage of the previous report to give Neng Feiyu some eye medicine.

Let's not say that Liu Zheng's shrewdness will not be fooled, let's just say that an old thief like Can Feiyu, who has been in the officialdom all his life, can he write a letter to Liu Zheng to explain the situation?

To sum up all this, there is today's beating.

"Is the source accurate?"

Hearing Liu Zheng ask about the matter, Pei Qiu immediately said: "Absolutely accurate, this is the news from the people arranged by his subordinates to be next to Li Chengfeng in the Turning River Hall, and the same news has also come from the government and the banknote gate." ”

The Lion Street Wharf was originally the site of Tianqi Hall and Chongming Hall, and now it has fallen into the hands of Liu Zheng, which is close to one of the eighteen granaries of the Linqing Dynasty, so the boats that load and unload goods here are all grain ships.

Linqing is worthy of the name of the world's granary, there are more than 1,000 grain stores in the city, and the grain sold from Linqing every year is tens of millions of stones, which is the real data with clear historical records, Huizhou merchants regard Linqing as a base camp, and the grain merchants in Huizhou merchants regard Linqing as the base camp in the base camp, and the Huizhou merchants also regard this as a base camp and Yangzhou grain merchants, Liu Zheng bought most of the grain from here to Qingzhou.

The reason why so many people were arranged to come to Linqing, and Pei Qiu and Liu Kou, who were quite famous in the rivers and lakes, came here to suppress the formation, because Liu Zheng had already expected the form of this year, from the Lion Street Wharf and the adjacent Sanyuange Wharf to Liu Zheng's important food sources.

But just yesterday, Pei Qiu suddenly found Liu Zheng and told him that his subordinates had news that Cao Lin had recently united the officials of the government and the people from the banknote customs to plan to attack the Lion Street Wharf, as for how to start, there was no way to know, after all, the time to come was still short, and the spies could not find out much detailed information.

"Uncle, what do you think about this?"

Jiang Mingda touched his chin and thought for a while before he spoke: "The Lion Street Wharf is too important to us, if there is a loss, it will affect not only the military rations, but also the grain prices in Qingzhou, if the grain prices rise, it will inevitably cause panic!" ”

After a pause, Jiang Mingda continued: "Regardless of whether the news is true or not, we must be careful to take precautions!" ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Mingda stared at Liu Zheng very seriously and said: "Zheng'er, no matter what, it is already very difficult to deal with the situation in Linqing with our current manpower, we must transfer people from Qingzhou, if you want to achieve the situation you expected, you must fully control Linqing, and you need at least 5,000 soldiers to fully control Linqing!" ”

5,000 sergeants!!

Liu Zheng's head is big all of a sudden, the transfer of 5,000 people is not a small movement, now the situation is already very tense, he not only detained Li Tingji, but also sent troops to take down the four county towns of Jinan Prefecture, if another 5,000 troops came to the Qing Dynasty, the Wanli Emperor will definitely be angry, and the time will ......
