Chapter 136: Trivia of the Chamber of Commerce
"This ......" Li Dongyang was also stunned when he heard this, he had patronized the person behind Zhou Chong before, and he actually omitted this matter, and now after Yang Tinghe's reminder, he suddenly found that the big thing in Zhou Chong's mouth should not be the rebellion of King Anhua, but the matter that he conspired to, but in order to keep that matter secret, only himself, Yang Tinghe, and Yang Yiqing know the Dao, and it is absolutely impossible for a fourth person to know the Dao, can Zhou Chong really pinch it?
"I understand, the person behind Zhou Chong turned out to be him, and only he has the ability to know all this in advance!" At this time, Yang Tinghe's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said something inexplicable.
Who is he? Li Dongyang just wanted to ask this question, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately understood the meaning of Yang Tinghe's words, in addition to him, Yang Tinghe, and Yang Yiqing in this world, there is indeed a fourth person who may know about their plans, and this person is the emperor who only knows how to play all day long.
"I see, if the person behind Zhou Zhong is him, then it all makes sense!" Li Dongyang also muttered to himself at this time, but unfortunately he didn't know what to say, their guess seemed reasonable, but it was getting farther and farther away from the truth.
Wang Lun in the cell was also speculating about the reasons why Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe asked Zhou Chong about these things, but unfortunately he thought hard for a long time, but he still didn't have any clue, and finally had to give up and worry about his fate instead.
A few days later, the news of Anhua's rebellion finally reached the south, and when Zhou Zhong learned the news, he immediately jumped up happily, and then quickly ran into the back garden to find Wang Jinxuan, who was taking care of chili peppers with Bang'er and Bai Mengwan. excitedly told the other party the news.
Since the last time I saw off Wang Lun. Wang Jinxuan is much closer to Zhou Chong. Occasionally, when they meet, they will take the initiative to come forward and say a few words, no longer deliberately avoiding suspicion as before, this change makes Bang'er and Aunt Wang smile in their eyes, instead of saying anything, they will deliberately create opportunities for the two of them to be alone.
However, this time, after Wang Jinxuan heard the news of King Anhua's rebellion, she asked with some puzzlement: "Brother Zhou." Although King Anhua's rebellion is a big deal, does it have anything to do with his father? ”
"Huh?" Zhou Chong was stunned when he heard this, he was only happy just now, but he forgot that the rebellion of King Anhua could not exonerate Wang Lun, but after this incident, Yang Yiqing and Zhang Yong, who were in rebellion, joined forces to attack Liu Jin, and as a result, Liu Jin was ambushed, but he couldn't say it directly now, otherwise he would really become a monster.
However, Zhou Zhong was also very anxious, and I saw that he reacted quickly. smiled and said: "Jinxuan, you don't know, this time Anhua rebelled under the banner of killing Liu Jin. It can be said that all the blame is put on Liu Jin, in this way, Liu Jin has been overwhelmed by this matter, and he must have no time to pay attention to Uncle Wang's affairs, plus the help of some important ministers in the court, presumably Uncle Wang must be safe now! ”
Hearing Zhou Chong's explanation, Wang Jinxuan realized that she was very happy at the moment, after all, after counting the time, her father should also enter the capital, she had been worried about the restlessness of sleep and food for the past two days, and now hearing the news, it can finally make her feel a little more relieved.
"Although the rebellion of King Anhua diverted the attention of Liu Jin and others, but this rebellion brought the disaster of swords to many people in Ningxia, with my father's mentality of worrying about the country and the people, I am afraid that I will not feel at ease when I know that I am temporarily safe because of this incident!" Wang Jinxuan suddenly sighed again, she and Wang Lun are worthy of being father and daughter, and they think about similar things.
Zhou Zhong was stunned when he heard this, he didn't have the heart of Wang Lun's father and daughter for the country and the people, just now after hearing the news of the rebellion of King Anhua, he was only happy, and now seeing Wang Jinxuan as a weak woman, he can still think of the people of Ningxia suffering because of the rebellion, which makes him feel admired.
"Brother, now Uncle Wang has nothing to do for the time being, this is a great thing, I'll go and talk to my mother, everyone have a good celebration tonight, and then you will come!" Bang'er also heard very clearly next to him, and now he finally found an opportunity to interject. The celebration she said was only one thing, and the other was that she wanted Zhou Chong and Wang Jinxuan to eat together to increase the relationship between the two.
"Okay, let my aunt prepare more good wine and food, we won't get drunk tonight!" Zhou Zhong was also very happy and said, it was not yet noon, but he still had something to do in the afternoon, so naturally he couldn't drink, and he didn't take this into account when he celebrated in the evening.
Next, Zhou Zhong looked at the growth of the pepper again, and found that the pepper has grown over its own calves, and it seems that it will be able to enter the maturity period after a while, and it may bloom and bear fruit at that time, and it is estimated that in June and July, the first batch of peppers in the history of the Central Plains will be harvested.
Zhou Zhong chatted with the three daughters of Bang'er in the back garden for a while, among which Bang'er and Wang Jinxuan seemed very happy, although Bai Mengwan was also as cheerful as ever, but Zhou Chong found that she seemed to have something on her mind, and her beautiful face was also a little haggard, which made people feel a little distressed when they looked at it, but now Zhou Chong is not easy to ask in person.
After leaving the back garden, Zhou Zhong came to the front yard of the Chamber of Commerce, which belongs to the office area of the Chamber of Commerce, and is divided into different areas according to the function, among which there is a courtyard closest to the inner house, which is the account room of the Chamber of Commerce.
Zhou Chong entered the tent room, and immediately saw that the hall was divided into several large blocks, each of which had a tent gentleman who was busy nervously, these tents were all old people left by Zhou Hai at the beginning, and they were also very loyal to the Chamber of Commerce, so they were very trusted by Zhou Chong.
However, Zhou Chong did not disturb them after coming in, but walked through the hall to a separate room next to him, pushed the door open and came in, and immediately saw Bai Junwan sitting behind the table by the door, and was also nervously accounting for the accounts, originally this was Sanniang's work, but now the Chamber of Commerce is short of people, Zhou Zhong needs Sanniang's help in many things, so he is a little powerless in financial matters, fortunately Bai Junwan joined the Chamber of Commerce at this time, so Sanniang assigned her financial work to Bai Junwan, and now she has done a good job.
"Hello Dongjia, Sanniang is resting inside, do you want me to wake her up?" Bai Junwan looked up at this time and saw that it was Zhou Chong who came in, and asked with a quiet smile. There is also a small cubicle inside this room, which can be used for rest, and Sanniang is sometimes too busy to stay up late, so she will sleep directly in it.
"No, Sanniang has been planning to do a guarantee for the small and medium-sized chamber of commerce during this time, and she is very busy all day, it is estimated that she stayed up late last night, so let her rest more!" Zhou Zhong said with a smile after hearing this.
Since the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce launched the business of smuggling in cooperation with cargo owners, many cargo owners have hoarded the goods in their hands, ready to see if the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce really keeps its promises, and as a result, many small and medium-sized smugglers will not be able to receive the goods, and these chambers of commerce want to cooperate with the cargo owners to smuggle, but no cargo owners are willing to believe them.
In order to help these small and medium-sized chambers of commerce, Zhou Zhong thought of a way, that is, the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce came forward to give some small and medium-sized chambers of commerce approved by the chamber of commerce as a guarantee, so that these chambers of commerce and cargo owners can cooperate in smuggling, so that those small and medium-sized chambers of commerce can survive, and cargo owners can also obtain greater benefits and accelerate the development of the smuggling industry. Of course, this business is also a good way for the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, and at the same time, it can also control those small and medium-sized chambers of commerce, so as to strengthen its own strength.
Originally, this guarantee business was prepared to start after Sun Tong's fleet returned, but after calculating the time, Sun Tong's fleet was about to come back, so some preparations had to be made, although this method was thought out by Zhou Chong, but the specific implementation had to be checked by Sanniang and others, so Sanniang could be said to be very busy during this time.
Zhou Chong came to Sanniang mainly to learn about the preparation of the business of guaranteeing for the small and medium-sized chamber of commerce, and now seeing that she was resting, Zhou Chong was embarrassed to disturb, thinking that Bai Junwan as Sanniang's assistant might know about this matter, so he found a place to sit down and asked her: "Mrs. Bai, do you know how Sanniang has prepared during this time, and is there any trouble in guaranteeing the small and medium-sized chamber of commerce?" ”
Bai Junwan heard Zhou Zhong ask about this matter, put down the account book in his hand and replied with a smile: "Please rest assured about this matter, Sanniang has set up the framework of the whole thing, and has planned some details, and even some manpower has been scheduled. I'm afraid it will take a while to get back on track. ”
Hearing Bai Junwan lightly open her lips and tell the story of the incident, it was originally a very boring thing, it may be told by a big beauty like her, but it makes people feel alive, no wonder some big bosses in later generations like to have a beautiful secretary, it turns out that it is not only for the eyes, but also to enhance the fun at work, of course, whether this fun will go further, it is hard to say.
Next, Zhou Zhong asked some details about the guarantee business, and Bai Junwan also answered one by one, which made Zhou Chong even more satisfied, he didn't expect that he had an unintentional act of kindness at the beginning, and he would bring such a talent to the Chamber of Commerce, looking at Bai Junwan's appearance, even if Sanniang is old in the future, she can take over the things in Sanniang's hands.
After talking about business, Zhou Chong also planned to leave, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered that when he saw Bai Mengwan just now, her face was not very good, so he couldn't help but stop and turn around and ask: "Madam Bai, I saw Mengwan's face a little haggard just now, did she encounter something?"
