With the rebellion of King Anhua, the situation in the DPRK and China is changing, Zhou Chong, who is far away in Shuangyu Port, with the knowledge of later generations, knows that Liu Jin has not been able to live for a few days, but what he never expected is that Liu Jin has not yet fallen, and his future father-in-law Wang Lun was acquitted, which made Zhou Chong also puzzled, and he couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for several days.

However, the happy event of Wang Lun's release did not make Zhou Chong much easier, the matter between him and Xie Lingyun was broken by Wang Jinxuan, and now the whole family knows about it, which not only made Aunt Wang very dissatisfied, but also called him to reprimand him for a long time, and even Bang'er began to ignore him, fortunately, Duo'er is not very sensible, although Bang'er coaxed her not to let her talk to Zhou Chong, but in private Duo'er is still very affectionate to Zhou Chong.

It is also the emotional discomfort that makes Zhou Zhong leave home as soon as he wakes up every day, running around in various industries of the Chamber of Commerce every day, and at the same time trying to find some work to do, and only go back at night every day, and eat outside, so that he can temporarily get rid of the troubles of the family.

This morning, Zhou Zhong was still the same as usual, got up early and went to the Beigang Tea House to have some breakfast, and then sat in the garden to watch the cargo owners come and go to trade goods, the most popular of which is the cooperative smuggling business carried out by the Chamber of Commerce, stimulated by the success of the last cooperative smuggling, those cargo owners who are waiting are all flocking to each other, vying to hand over the goods in their hands to the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce for transportation.

However, it is a pity that because the ships of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce are limited, they can't eat so many goods at once. As a result, many goods can only be backlogged at the port. Fortunately, Zhou Zhong had already made preparations to guarantee those small and medium-sized chambers of commerce. So far, there have been 11 small and medium-sized chambers of commerce that have passed through the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce's inspection as of yesterday. Although the scale of these small and medium-sized chambers of commerce is not as large as that of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, if their transportation capacity is integrated, it is almost several times that of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce.

The investigation of small and medium-sized chambers of commerce is still in progress, because the chamber of commerce has limited manpower, so it will definitely take a long time. And through this kind of investigation, Zhou Chong has also instructed Sanniang to exclude some chambers of commerce that are hostile to the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, such as the Ise Chamber of Commerce that once plotted the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce's industry, etc., no matter how good the conditions are, these chambers of commerce will not be inspected by the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, and they have the ability to find the owner to transport the goods by themselves!

In addition, Zhou Zhong had also discussed with Xie Lingyun about the establishment of the Haimeng, although he was later interrupted by Wang Jinxuan, but this matter was the business of the Chamber of Commerce after all, and Xie Lingyun and Hong Feiyun both agreed to this matter. And Xie Lingyun's father, Xie Da, finally nodded in agreement after thinking about it for a few days. Now the two chambers of commerce have jointly explained the situation to Xie Qian and others behind them, although they have not replied yet, but there is a great hope of success.

Thinking that after the establishment of the Haimeng, most of the chambers of commerce in Shuangyu Port will be under his control, and he will also monopolize most of the smuggling industry in the Ming Dynasty, which makes Zhou Zhong very excited. Although sometimes monopoly does affect the development of an industry, but now the Ming Dynasty's maritime trade power is still very weak, only by concentrating most of the power together, can it be easier to exert the maximum force, but also can the smuggling industry get the fastest development.

Just when Zhou Chong was indulging in the sweet dream of controlling smuggling, he suddenly saw the guards in the garden quickly gathering towards the gate of the trading center, which made Zhou Da puzzled, and stopped one of the guards at the moment and asked: "What happened, why are you all running towards the gate?" ”

When the guard saw that it was the owner of the Chamber of Commerce who stopped him, he immediately saluted and said: "Qiqi owner, the brother who guards the door has sent a message that there is someone making trouble outside the door and needs manpower, so let's help!" ”

"Troublemaker?" Zhou Zhong was also very surprised when he heard this, with the current reputation and strength of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, coupled with the close ties with the Xie Family Chamber of Commerce and the Hongjia Chamber of Commerce, who would dare to make trouble without opening his eyes?

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong stood up and came to the gate with the guards, wanting to see who was so bold? However, when they came to the gate of the trading center, they found that a bunch of people had been crowded in front of the entire gate, and they were talking about it together, and there was a noisy sound from the center of the center, and the guards of the Chamber of Commerce asked everyone to get out of the way and not block the door, so as not to affect the entry and exit of others.

"What's the matter, why are all these people gathered around the door?" Zhou Zhong saw a more familiar doorman, and immediately grabbed the other party and asked.

The other party saw that it was Zhou Chong, and hurriedly replied: "Qi Yu Dongjia, this matter has nothing to do with our Chamber of Commerce, just now a person walked by in front of our gate, but somehow fainted all of a sudden, originally we wanted to send him to the hospital, but I didn't expect that two Hu people came at this time, saying that there was a way to wake up the other party, and we were not good at stopping it, but I didn't expect that the two Hu people would bleed each other as soon as they came up, and they also released a lot, and it happened that the fainting companion came at this time, and the result was in a hurry, Now we are arguing with those two nonsense people, and these people outside are refusing to leave, blocking our door. ”

Hearing that it wasn't someone making trouble, and the matter had nothing to do with the Chamber of Commerce, Zhou Chong finally breathed a sigh of relief, but there were so many people coming and going in the trading center, and he couldn't let the other party stand in front of the door, so Zhou Chong asked the guards to separate the crowd by a way, and he was ready to go in to mediate, so as to solve the matter as soon as possible.

"Let's go! Let's go! Our host is here! With the shouts of the guards, the crowd of onlookers heard that Zhou Chong was coming, and they all got out of the way, and at the same time, some people who knew Zhou Chong also greeted Zhou Chong, and Zhou Chong also smiled and returned the salute one by one, now he is the head of the entire Shuangyu Port, and many people want to make friends with him but can't find the opportunity.

After Zhou Chong entered the crowd, he found an obese man lying on the ground, and the sleeve on his right arm was rolled up high, revealing a fat arm, of which a wound was indeed cut on the forearm, and there was a pool of purple-black blood on the ground.

And next to this unconscious person, the young men dressed as two shopkeepers were flushed, pointing to the two ragged Hu people in front of them and scolding loudly: "You two Hu people are so bold, you actually hurt people with knives in broad daylight, if something happens to our boss today, our brothers have to fight for it!" ”

In response to the angry scolding of these two guys, the two ragged men were desperately waving their hands, and at the same time explained in a strange Chinese: "No, no, no, the two little brothers have misunderstood, we are the servants of the Lord, and we are spreading the glory of the Lord on behalf of the Lord, so we are just saving people, not hurting people at all......"

"Phew! Save? Have you saved people like this, you cut so much on our host's arm, and you shed so much blood, it was nothing but now it's okay! The two young men didn't believe each other's words at all, and even became angrier and angrier when they talked about it, and rolled up their sleeves as if they wanted to do it.

"Slow! Don't do it, two little brothers, these two priests are indeed healing your host! At this moment, Zhou Chong finally shouted to stop an impending bloody fight, and when the two ragged people saw Zhou Chong, their faces also showed a look of surprise, only to see them run a few steps to Zhou Chong, and said excitedly: "Blessed by the Virgin Mary, we finally see you again!" ”

"Father John and Priest Nader, I didn't expect us to meet again, but weren't you in Nangang before, and when did you come to Beigang, why didn't you come to me to catch up?" Zhou Chong asked with a smile, in front of him were the two Portuguese who he brought from Zhoushan Island to Shuangyu Port, when they went around preaching after getting off the ship in Nangang, Zhou Chong didn't have time to pay attention to them, but now seeing the other party's ragged appearance, it is estimated that here is the same as Zhoushan Island before, no one is willing to follow them to religion.

Hearing Zhou Chong's question, Father John, who had lost a lot of weight, couldn't help but show a wry smile, but this was not the time to catch up with Zhou Chong, so he begged Zhou Chong: "Venerable Zhou Gongzi, please help us quickly, we were originally kind to save people, but now we are said to hurt people by the other party, if you don't come again, I'm afraid we will be beaten again!" ”

Looking at Father John's pitiful appearance, and listening to the meaning of their words, it seems that he is often beaten in Shuangyu Port, which makes Zhou Zhong also laugh dumbly, Shuangyu Port has no law, and some smugglers are similar to pirates, and fights and brawls are even more common, these two Portuguese missionaries around may offend people, and the beating is estimated to be light, and if you don't do it, you may even lose your life.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong comforted the two servants of God for a few words, and then turned his head to the two men with angry eyebrows and smiled: "You don't have to worry, although the methods of these two priests are a little weird, but they are indeed kind, and now it is not a way to let your boss lie on the ground, I think it is better to carry him to our chamber of commerce first, let the doctor in the chamber of commerce treat him, and when your boss wakes up, I will explain to him again?" ”

The two guys are estimated to be the first time to come to Shuangyu Port, and they don't know the identity of Zhou Chong at all, especially when they see that Zhou Chong still knows the two hurtful Hu people, and they don't trust him, and the stunned guy on the right said with a stiff neck: "No, you are all in a gang, I can't believe you, now we want the two Hu people to explain clearly, what are you doing with a knife to cut our host?"
