Chapter 9 Self-inflicted

Besides, Zhang Lianqi, although he had a clear understanding of Wang Qintang's inquiry, and when he got in touch, he suddenly realized that this new governor was probably different from any previous county governor or governor, and he should be a very powerful character.

But Zhang Lianqi is not afraid. Think about it, who can be the master of the county master, who is the same as the ordinary people. Let's take Zeng Zhixian, who came to office in the first year of Xuantong, for example, he was also a progressive who advocated "rejuvenating the country through industry". Although I like to sit in a sedan chair, in addition to liking to sit in a sedan chair, at first it was also "oil and salt do not enter".

However, at the beginning, Zhang Lianqi despised him. To say that it is contemptible, there is no contempt. When Zhang Lianqi found a way to find out, he knew that this Zeng Zhi County was from Jiangxi, a place with poor mountains and old valleys. Not to mention that my hometown is far away from Ansu, and there are mountains near my home, it seems unrealistic to buy wood, bricks and tiles to transport them, or simply buy a field for Mr. Zeng in the local area. So, he began to work "color", and specially bought a young, beautiful and knowledgeable woman from Baoding City, and sent it to Zeng Zhixian by night, in place of the cook Lao Zhao and the miscellaneous servant Lao Chu, to serve Zeng Zhixian daily eating, drinking and sleeping.

I thought that Zeng Zhixian, who came from a poor land of mountains and bad waters, had been unable to go home to reunite with his wife for many years, and sending a young, beautiful and well-informed woman over was like sending meat to the mouth of a hungry dog, and Zeng Zhixian was too late to steal the fun. But who would have thought that this Zeng Zhixian saw it, but he didn't move the "color", not only did he not move the "color", but he also scolded Zhang Lianqi for a dog blood sprinkler, and immediately blasted Zhang Lianqi and the woman out of the county office.

However, Zhang Lianqi was not discouraged when he saw that he couldn't send "sex" and was scolded for being a dog blood sprinkler. I went back and worked sending "things" again.

Of course, to say that he worked sending "things" is not to reconsider buying wood, bricks and tiles, wading through mountains and rivers to send them to Zeng Zhixian's hometown, or simply buying a field property for him near Zeng Zhixian's hometown, but Zhang Lianqi soon discovered that this Zeng Zhixian likes to sit in a sedan chair.

Since he likes to sit in a sedan chair, Zhang Lianqi thinks that he will definitely be interested in the sedan chair itself. So he spent a lot of money and specially asked the craftsman to make a sandalwood sedan chair for Zeng Zhixian. This small sedan chair is not only made of sandalwood, but also cleverly installed in the small sedan with a carbon basin, as well as a fixed teapot and bowl and a flat plate for office. The flat plate is surrounded by gold sheets, which looks noble and generous.

Send a beautiful woman, Zeng Zhixian doesn't want it, and Zhang Lianqi will be scolded. When this small sedan chair was quietly sent to the county office, Zeng Zhixian actually accepted it. Of course, it was not accepted all at once, but it was put in the county government for a long time, until this small sedan chair was said to be a donation from Zhang Lianqi, the owner of the North Burning Pot, to the county government, and Zeng Zhixian sat in it in a dignified manner.

Although the gift to Zeng Zhi County was said to be a donation to the county government, but in the end, Zhang Lianqi did not suffer at all, the relationship between the two was close, not to mention, later, Ansu wanted to establish a county chamber of commerce, Zeng Zhi County also tried to override public opinion, so that Zhang Lianqi became the first president of the Chamber of Commerce in Ansu County.

However, this Wang Qintang, Zhang Lianqi also saw it, and it was different from the previous Zeng Zhi County. seems to be a kind old man, but he is resolute and decisive inside. said that he is a very powerful character, and here's why. It is precisely because of this reason that in order to be able to get close to the new governor as soon as possible, Zhang Lianqi did not dare to rashly send "sex" or "things". For a while, it was just like dealing with Governor Zeng back then, and then found another way.

Of course, there is no other way to open up. But just when Zhang Lianqi was worried about how to get close to the governor Wang, it happened that Qi Zhankui told the new governor about the contract between the two back then. Of course, Zhang Lianqi didn't say anything more, and immediately returned home, found out the contract in his hand, and tore it up in front of Governor Wang and Qi Zhankui. When Governor Wang saw this, he was extremely happy.

I also want to strike while the iron is hot, and I also look at the lack of heat, and I am ready to pour a scoop of oil to make the fire strong. On the second day after Governor Wang looked for him, Zhang Lianqi made a decision, and like Zhang Shuting and Qi Zhankui the day before, he came to the county office early in the morning. I also knew that it was too late, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bump into Governor Wang.

When I came to the county office, I saw Wang Qintang and Xiaoma just coming out of the kitchen to eat. Seeing Wang Qintang coming out of the kitchen, Zhang Lianqi also took a few steps and greeted:

"Governor, please stay!"

Wang Qintang saw that it was Zhang Lianqi, he knew, he just met yesterday, so he joked:

"Shopkeeper Zhang, didn't you regret coming to the county office so early because of yesterday's incident?"

Of course, Zhang Lianqi heard that the new governor was a joke, and hurriedly joked:

"How dare the governor repent? Even if you want to regret it, you don't dare! ”

After speaking, he said:

"I'm looking for the governor, but I have something else to report."

At this time, Wang Qintang had already stopped, and when he saw Zhang Lianqi saying that he had something to report, he waved his hand very happily and said:

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Zhang Lianqi told Wang Qintang that when Governor Zeng was in office, he had established the Ansu County Chamber of Commerce and appointed him as the president of the Chamber of Commerce. He had already discussed with several members of the Chamber of Commerce, and at noon he was going to set up a table at Qingchunyong Restaurant outside the North Gate, and asked Wang Qintang to come over and give some instructions on how to promote the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce.

After that, he said the names of some members of the Chamber of Commerce, such as Wang Baldzi, the owner of Fuhefeng Meat Shop, Zhang Luozi, the owner of Qingchun Yong Restaurant, Chu Wanxiang, the owner of Zhonghe Xuanxuan Store, Fan Hongzhi, the shopkeeper of Liang Shuangxing Pharmacy, and Lian Xinxin, the shopkeeper of Kejiazhan Dache Shop.

Speaking of which, Governor Zeng established the Ansu County Chamber of Commerce that year and appointed Zhang Lianqi as the first president of the Ansu County Chamber of Commerce, but he only built an empty shelf. Because not long after the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, Governor Zeng left Ansu and the work was not carried out. But since the announcement of Zhang Lianqi as the first president of Ansu, Zhang Lianqi can't just be the commander of the light pole, there are no soldiers. So, he pulled out a list, as members of the Chamber of Commerce, such as Wang Baldzi, the owner of Fuhefeng Meat Shop, Zhang Luozi, the owner of Qingchun Yong Restaurant, etc., these people are actually not others, they are all good friends with Zhang Lianqi on weekdays.

When Wang Qintang heard this, his heart couldn't help but sink.

Regarding the establishment of the county chamber of commerce by the previous governor, Wang Qintang actually knew about it for a long time. According to Wang Qintang's meaning, of course, the Ansu County Chamber of Commerce needs to be established as soon as possible, but the chamber of commerce he wants to establish will never be the chamber of commerce established by the previous governor. The chamber of commerce he wants to set up must be elected by all merchants.

It is precisely because of this consideration that when Zhang Lianqi said this at this time, for a while, he didn't know how to answer.

But after listening to Zhang Lianqiti's names, the names of these chamber of commerce members are all small shopkeepers of some shops along the street, and some of the big merchants he knows or has visited, such as Zhang Shuting, the owner of the "Runquanyong" pot, Chen Zhanyuan, the shopkeeper of the "Yongfeng Qi" flour factory, Shi Jincai, Wang Linsheng, Liu Dianrong, and Shi Jinzhong of the "Dehe" cotton ginning factory, as well as Liu Minchang, the owner of the "Yuanfeng" iron factory, Li Zhenzhi, the owner of the "Zhongxingheng" oil mill, Liu Chaozi, the shopkeeper of the "Xinyicheng" money house, and none of the members of the chamber of commerce mentioned by Zhang Lianqi.

Wang Qintang was unhappy in his heart, but Wang Qintang was Wang Qintang after all, and after only thinking about it for a while, he said in a refreshing voice:

"There's no urgency in this matter, when I'm busy for a while, let's sit down again and discuss this matter before it's too late!"
