When Zhou Quan walked in, Han Shizhong looked at him carefully. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This is the second time he has seen Zhou Quan, and the impression that Zhou Quan gave him last time was that he was not as handsome as the son of a military general, but when he looked at it again this time, he found a difference.

That's self-confidence.

Even some of the generals in the Western Army, like Liu Hai and Xiang Seed Master, although they are self-serving, they are not as confident as Zhou Quan.

As for Liu Yanqing's generation, it's just a pig dog ear!

He secretly looked at Zhou Quan, Zhou Quan also looked around at everyone, Liang Tingfang is old acquaintance, Han Shizhong and Song Xingfeng are both big men, their aura is extraordinary, and the two look vaguely familiar.

Dong Changqing said that the two were from the Western Army, but he never introduced the names of the two, but Wuyang next to him saw Han Shizhong, his heart moved, and he whispered in Zhou Quan's ear: "These two people are the strong men next to Liu Yanqing, but they came here for some reason." ”

Zhou Quan had already inquired clearly from Du Gou'er that although Liu Yanqing was close, he actually had a good relationship with his uncle Zhou Tong and father Zhou Fu, and even had some discord. And Du Gou'er's evaluation of Liu Yanqing is extremely low, that is, Wuyang, and he also said that the father and son are more famous than real and cannot be reused, so Zhou Quan is too lazy to pay attention to them.

Even with some contempt for Han Shizhong and Song Xingfeng.

He came up and grabbed Liang Tingfang's hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Liang, it's not that I'm slacking, I have only returned to Beijing once in the past year, and there are a lot of chores......

"Hugh wants to say this, my sister Hongyu learned about my friendship with you last time, and she once said that your mouth is full of coaxing words, and I only believe fifty percent of your words!"

As soon as Liang Tingfang said this, Zhou Quan suddenly felt embarrassed.

Although Liang Tingfang looks like a white-faced scholar, his personality is a little rough, but this guy is not really stupid, he relayed his sister's words, which made Zhou Quan embarrassed, so he had the idea of compensation.

But soon, Zhou Quan noticed something.

"Sister Ling...... Fang's name Ruby? ”

"Yes, my sister is beautiful and fragrant, and she has seven tricks, so she is much smarter than me...... But Zhou Quan, I can warn you, don't beat her idea, I have heard a long time ago, you hooked up with a princess of Liao, you are such a romantic person, you are not a good match, if you dare to beat my sister's idea, I don't want to fight my life, I will break your three legs! ”

Wu Yang wanted to silently add next to him: There is more than one princess who hooks up.

Zhou Quan lost his mind for a moment at Liang Hongyu's name, he didn't know if this Liang Hongyu was the Liang Hongyu he knew.

It's just that with Liang Hongyu, I don't know where Han Shizhong is.

Beckoning Liang Tingfang to sit down, he looked at the other two guests, if they want to talk about Manichaeism, it is better for outsiders not to be present. Therefore, he arched his hand and said very kindly: "Two, I have guests here, can you please move first, and I will see you two later?" ”

Han Shizhong didn't have anything, so Song Xingfeng was a little annoyed in his heart.

They came to invest in Zhou Quan, which is also related to the Zhou family's good reputation in the Western Army, especially in the first two years, Zhou Tong traveled to and from the Western Army and found many military orphans, all saying that the Zhou family made some money and wanted to help the original brothers, which made the two of them more respectful.

But today, it's not enough!

If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were penniless, Han Shizhong's clothes were gone, and he really wanted to throw up his sleeves and leave.

However, Han Shizhong, under a figure like Liu Yanqing's father and son, can mix for many years, not to mention being snubbed by Zhou Quan.

He just smiled: "I'll go elsewhere to play tricks, and it's okay to see Zhou Lang when I'm free, it's just that the two of us were kicked out by the Liu family's father and son, and now we are penni......less."

"Mr. Dong, arrange the account room and give the two strong men ten yuan for pocket money." Zhou Quan said.

Ten dollars, pocket money......

Han Shizhong's face showed some ridicule, he called himself a hero and wanted to take refuge in Zhou Quan, but in Zhou Quan's heart, it was only worth ten times.

He didn't know that Zhou Quan was really not very interested in them as strong men of the Western Army.

If he is a young man, with strong plasticity and bloodiness, Zhou Quan will be more interested, but Han and Song are already not young, and even if they are recruited, they may not be able to adapt to the system of Zhou Quan's guards. At most, with bravery, stay by Zhou Quan's side and act as a guard - but how can he be as reliable as Wuyang!

"Ten money, I Han Shizhong took it." Although with ridicule, Han Shizhong still arched his hand slightly.

He and Song Xingfeng followed Dong Changqing and left, Zhou Quan was thinking about Manichaeism, and when he arrived at the door, he was suddenly surprised.

I was still thinking about it, with Liang Hongyu, I don't know where Han Shizhong is, how can I know that Han Shizhong is in front of me!

He strode forward, grabbed Han Shizhong's arm, and looked at Han Shizhong fiercely.

Han Shizhong was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhou Quan with a smile: "Could it be that Zhou Lang thinks it's too little money to give me ten times?" ”

"Naturally, there are fewer!"

Zhou Quan said, and he secretly added in his heart: If you are that Han Shizhong, it would be too little to give you 100,000 yuan.

Yue Han Yue Han, this Han Shizhong, is a figure on a par with his cheap junior brother Yue Fei. Although he is not as good as Yue Fei in terms of soldiers, he can be regarded as a hero during the Song Dynasty.

Zhou Quan believes that among the array boys under his command, some generals and even famous generals can also be cultivated, but if there are ready-made famous generals for him to use, why not?

And he still admires Han Shizhong a lot, when Yue Fei was killed, he raised the court, only he dared to stand up, and angrily asked "how can you convince the public".

"Take a hundred guan first and give the two strong men zero flowers." Zhou Quan's mind turned, but even if it was Han Shizhong, anyway, since he came to vote, he was not afraid that he would leave, and the matter on Liang Tingfang's side was more urgent.

Han Shizhong didn't expect that with one sentence, he would turn ten guan money into one hundred.

After they left, Zhou Quan said apologetically to Liang Tingfang: "Brother Liang, what news have you heard about Manichaeism?" ”

"Over the years, the Manichaeans have been at peace, but they have made some living in private, like sweaters......"

"Sweater?" Zhou Quan frowned.

Knitting sweaters was an invention of the little lady under his prompting, and later became popular in the market. Although this kind of business can also make some profits, it is much worse than Zhou Quan's profiteering industries, so he doesn't care.

"Yes, now they control nearly half of the sweaters on the market in the north and south, if there is a family, invite weavers, and also want to compete with them, they must use all kinds of methods to break the family and wealth!"

This Manichaeism has even created a monopoly!

Zhou Quan was a little happy, what is Fang La doing, doesn't he want to rebel and start to engage in industry?

"In the name of going to Rongcheng to buy Mao, they poured a lot of horses from Liao, my sister-in-law calculated, they now have at least seven or eight hundred horses in hand, and with the benefit of sweaters, they secretly purchased blades and armor, and recruited foolish surnames as believers. My sister said that they are almost ready now, just wait for a moment! ”

Liang Tingfang didn't leave "My sister said", but Zhou Quan was in no mood to laugh at him.

Jiangnan has always been a big market for him, such as glassware, ironware, and boats from the shipyard, which sell quite well in Jiangnan and can contribute a lot of profits to him. At the same time, the north and south of the Yangtze River are also his largest source of food, and in the fifth year of Zhenghe alone, he bought 2 million stone of grain from here and transported it to Jeju Island and Liuqiu Island for the next step.

Therefore, Zhou Quan hoped that Jiangnan would be able to maintain stability in a short period of time, at least not to destroy his big market and food source because of Manichaeism.

"Did you report this to the Imperial Court?" Zhou Quan asked.

This is actually a vain question, with Zhou Quan's eyes and ears in the court, if this matter had attracted the attention of the court, he would have known it a long time ago.

"Naturally, I reported it, but now in the southeast, you know who is in charge, my father and son are lowly officials, I have been mixed for so many years, and I am just a ...... Who cares what we say? My sister said, it's useless to talk to others about this matter, I can only tell you! ”

"Oh, why so?"

Liang Tingfang glared at Zhou Quan with some dissatisfaction: "You asked me why I am like this, how do I know, but I also asked my sister, she said that you can't leave Jiangnan!" ”

Zhou Quan smiled dumbly: "I know about this matter, I will find an opportunity to talk to the court and the princes about this matter, if Jiangnan is in chaos, it will indeed not be good for me!" ”

"Oh, by the way, I also captured a Manichaean man, and that guy seems to say that their military advisors often travel back and forth between Xiongzhou's Rongcheng, Jingshi and Hangzhou, especially among the Jingshi, there seems to be a Manichaean bigwig."

This news made Zhou Quan ponder for a while, this Manichaean military advisor is very mysterious, and among the Beijing divisions, there is also a big man in Manichaeism...... If that's the case, the sweater thing can be explained. The sweater was first made popular among the ladies of the Kyoto Division, and I think that the big man saw a business opportunity from it.

Zhou Quan didn't expect that the big man was very close to him, and that military advisor was now outside the shopping mall of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce.

The military advisor's surname is Chen, but even in Manichaeism, few people know his name, and he goes out to wander and mostly disguises himself as a hoop cooper, so he is called Chen Hoop Bucket.

Standing outside the mall at this time, he looked at the glass window that greeted him and sighed.

Glass mirrors are still sold for dozens of pieces, and palm-sized ones are still sold for three or five pieces, but in this shopping mall, above the second floor, the windows are made of transparent glass, and the sunlight can enter through the windows.

"Unfortunately, it is said that the mall will not officially open until the Spring Festival, so now you can only see the goods on the first floor...... Just look at the window outside, you can see what kind of gold kiln this is. Zhou Quan made such a place, and he didn't talk much about making money every day, but he was afraid that he would have to use a cornucopia to describe his speed of accumulating wealth! If such a person can be used by my holy religion, the general trend of the world will be like a palm! ”

Chen Hoop Bucket thought to himself, but when he saw two big men, Xi Zizi walked out from the back of the mall.

Behind that is the office of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, it is reported that Zhou Quan is now in it, these two men, but they are not wearing the clothes of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, one of them, he doesn't even have winter clothes, only a single coat.

It was Han Shizhong and Song Xingfeng, who received "pocket money" and couldn't wait to run out to play.

Chen Hoop Bucket's heart moved, and he followed behind the two. (To be continued.) )
