This governor's yamen occupies a large area, and the two of them walked more than 100 steps, and they couldn't hear what the two of them said. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Chengzhen whispered: "Guanhou, my visit to the spring is nonsense, and I have something to tell you seriously." The fault of this matter is not yours, and it will not be handed over to anyone. Let me ask you first, what is your friendship with the foreign girls of Warby Bank now? ”

“…… It's the same as it used to be. ”

"That's good, I'm not a teacher to ask for guilt, and I don't care about that idle matter. I ask you this because I have something to say. Let's say, if I entrust you with a sum of money to invest, you are a little sure that you will not lie to us. It's a lot of money, can you guarantee that she's not going to have a problem? ”

Zhao Guanhou's expression also became serious, "Brother in-law, if you want to say a small number, I can guarantee it, and I will compensate you if it's a big deal." If you say it's a big number, then I'll ask you more, how big is it? ”

Cheng Zhen looked around and lowered his voice: "Two million Albion pounds." ”

"Two million? Albion pounds? "Now one Albion pound can be exchanged for about eight taels and five pieces of silver, which is seventeen million taels. Zhao Guanhou Rao has seen a lot of money, and his face changed slightly, "What a big number, what is this?" ”

"Family. Our own people, I won't hide it from you, the old man has worked hard all his life and saved such an insignificant belongings, is it easy for you to say? When he was in trouble, he listened to the words of Lao Shi and bought all the silver into foreign pounds, and later, the price of pounds was high and the price of silver was low. All that's left is some yellow croaker, all locked in the safe, and that's not going to mention it for now. The foreign pound is now stored in HSBC, which is a foreigner's bank, but it is insurance, but the interest rate is too low, and after talking for a long time, I am only willing to give two percent. This is to allow us to use his place, in order to keep it secret, not to let outsiders find out, deliberately pressing us, not to say much, this anger is uncomfortable. Not to mention, the safe also costs money, and the interest is really pitiful when it comes and goes. Eat interest every year, and the money is not enough to spend. I thought, save it in another place. ”

"Swap for Warbi?"

"Yes, originally Ama was afraid that Warby would be inferior to HSBC, and once it went bankrupt, it would be a bad deal. But looking at it now, even Dao Sheng has made you collapse, and Huabi should be able to stand, and you can rest assured that the money is stored there. But in terms of interest, we have to say good. First, the gold bars and title deeds in the safe, we use them for nothing, and we don't give money. Second, the interest rate should be at least 5%. ”

This deposit is too large, and if you give it a high interest rate, it is equivalent to paying a high amount of cash to Qingdi every year. Not to mention foreign banks, even if Siheng Qianzhuang wants to borrow the power of King Qing, it will never be given.

But Zhao Guanhou thought about it for a moment, with the transfer of such a large sum of money, the accounts went back and forth, and it would be easier to do the matter of crossing the wheat side of the silver by himself. nodded and said: "I try to talk about it, even if I can't talk about it, I have to bear a few points myself, and make sure that it will be five cents." As for the passbook and seal, it's almost time to talk about it, and Brother Zhen will do it. ”

"That's what I want, I don't have to go out of the transfer procedures, and I'm not good at negotiating with foreigner banks. In short, it's one, act quickly, save all the money, and half of Amma's heart disease will be gone. Go back and buy a few houses in the concession, maybe one day, we will have to move here. ”

Zhao Guanhou was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "The matter is so serious?" ”

"How is it not serious? The fifth child almost suffered a fried egg, this is the emperor's biological father! If it was changed to the previous masters when they were in power, why didn't they raid the family and destroy the three clans. You know what? Zenichi's treatment of the assassin was to imprison, saying that he cherished him as a talent and could not harm him, and he surrendered what he wanted to say. Talent? He believed this, and the two of them chatted for a long time behind closed doors in prison, who knows what to say. Anyway, he knew that the assassin was well fed and lived, no one was embarrassed for him, and he was not allowed to be tortured in court. The court has not been executed, he has confessed ......, do you say this is a prison or a hotel? Even the dignified prince is like this, how can this country be saved. Don't talk about them, just talk about myself, you know how I came back from the three eastern provinces, right? ”

Zhao Guanhou knew that Cheng Zhen was doing nonsense outside the customs and making a lot of trouble. The minister's silver alone is not clear.

The Northeast has accumulated a lot of official funds for the new policy, and since he took office, he has spent a lot of money, and he has to play every day and set up a banquet every day. The cook only cooks one dish, and then he can find a place to gamble or drink flower wine. The degree of magnanimity is no less than that of the river work yamen of the year.

As a result, several old men wanted to join him and get a dismissal and change generals, and he himself had no other errands, and now he is actually idle in Beijing.

But Cheng Zhen laughed twice, "Let me tell you, I bought the impeachment with my own money, and I found ginseng myself." For the sake of this, I hurriedly transferred back to Beijing and left the land of right and wrong. Don't you know, how many times did I get fried eggs during my time in the Northeast? Although Ge Ming's party did not make as much trouble outside the customs as it did in the Guan, there were quite a few of them, either sending boat orders, or getting a group of students to go to the streets, or if not, they wanted to kill officials and seize the government. Some of the redbeards outside the gate have contact with them, attacking the county seat, and even the prefecture city dares to fight. Thanks to the Zhang Yuting you protected, he was very effective in the war, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to stay. ”

"Didn't you say that twenty towns were formed? Can't you suppress the thieves? ”

"Don't mention the twenty towns, a group of soldiers all read foreign books, they are the first Ge Ming Party! Using them to protect me is equivalent to a weasel watching the chicken coop. That is, the two battalions of road guards transferred from your Shandong, I still dare to use them, but I can't believe the other troops. In Ge Ming's party, there are even flag people. That kid's father was a deputy commander of Heilongjiang, and as soon as Shoushan took poison, he sent his son to Fusang to find Ge Ming's party to defect, and when he came back, he helped Ge Ming's party deal with Dajin. Think about it, even the flag people are reversed, who else can this country rely on? ”

Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Brother Zhen, do you want to open a little ......"

"There's nothing I can't think about. With Dajin, I eat, drink and have fun, and without Dajin, I also eat, drink and have fun. My temperament, I can't be an official, it's good to be a free king. So the key is, you have to have money. It's not safe to put this money in Beijing, who knows what will happen, and I can rest assured if I put it under my own noses. Then buy some houses and fields from you, my brother-in-law has soldiers and guns, and I can rest assured that I will live here with you. ”

Zhao Guanhou's heart moved, "Brother Zhen, after you return to Beijing, you might as well ask if there are any good friends who are willing to buy a house and land in Shandong like you." If there is one, the younger brother welcomes it with both hands. ”

The banquet in the evening is lively, and there are a large number of inner courts of the Shengping Drama Department in Shandong to worship and stay, and perform before the banquet, so that the holy hands of the pear garden such as Naqinxuan are all applauded. praised again and again, and now Pi Huang Zhengyin can only be appreciated in Ludi. In the capital, you can't hear such a good show. After the play ended, Cao and Wang accompanied the three of them to Pingkang in Jinan Mansion to have fun, while Zhao Guanhou went to Yuqing to discuss with her

"I want to set up a clan fund in Shandong. Once the situation changes in the future, this fund will be the back road for the clan bannermen. Most of them don't know how to manage money, although they are very wide now, but in the future, it is difficult to say what the result will be. If there is a fund, they only take interest and do not move the capital, which is equivalent to a disguised hardcore crop, which is enough for them to live. As far as Shandong is concerned, it is equivalent to a large amount of silver in our hands, and it is beneficial to everyone to make funds with us. ”

Yuqing thought for a while, "This is a solution, but the uncles under those gangs can really feel that there are not many people who are in danger, and there may not be a few who are willing to deposit money in your bank." This group of people can be summed up in one sentence, they don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin. You have to think about it when you come to the end to find a way out. If you want me to say this, they won't listen to you if you say this now, and they will always suffer a few losses before they can think of begging you to help them. When the time comes, we will make another deduction, and the fund will charge a management fee every year. ”

"Then they don't save it, they put their money in the bank, which is to help us develop, which is equivalent to borrowing chickens to lay eggs. As for the management fee, it comes out of the interest. Besides, as soon as I became governor, I built up a large amount of land in the concession, and now I can build houses. When the time comes, this area will be zoned as a clan residential area, and each building will be able to make a lot of money. Supporting facilities and properties have to use ours, which is also a lot of income. ”

Yuqing chuckled, "I know your ability to turn your head in this copper coin, in short, I believe you and listen to you." ”

She leaned her head on Zhao Guanhou's arms, "When I met you a few years ago, you were still a penniless poor boy, and now, you are all the governors of a province with a lot of money, my Ama and eldest brother, maybe I will rely on you to take care of you in the future." Life is impermanent, it's really unimaginable, if it weren't for the fate at the beginning, how could there be today's results. I...... I don't know if there is still Amananan wine. ”

"I don't need any southern wine, for me, you are my best southern wine, Shigege, let's add a sister to Xiaoci......"

"No...... I'm going to add a brother to her. ”

Cao Zhongying and Wang Hexuan are very good at communicating in the field, eating, drinking, gambling and smoking, they can come to everything, and Zhao Guanhou is willing to pay. After a few days, the three senior officers and their attachés were very satisfied, and no one cared about the case at all, no matter how Zhao Guanhou wrote, they just signed it.

There are many scenic spots in Shandong, several people linger in the scenery of mountains and rivers, Pingkang scenery, Chengzhen and Jinan a newly debuted Qing Qi is also hot, quite a little happy. It wasn't until ten days later that Qin Xuan invited Zhao Guanhou to come back. The place where the guests were entertained was the proud building opened by Fengyi's class, Jiu Ma and others.

Na Qinxuan is very familiar friends with Jiu Ma and Fengyi Ban Yigan girl, and the reunion of the old people has a lot of emotion. Although they have gone ashore to be good, they have met old benefactors, especially Na Qinxuan, who is outstanding in appearance and talent, and is willing to come to accompany the wine and entertain.

After a few glasses of wine, Na Qin Xuan did not shy away from the woman who accompanied the wine, and said to Zhao Guanhou: "Guanhou, I won't hide it from you, this time we came, the so-called trial or reward is a disguise." The real intention is to invite you to Beijing. The matter of the slave in Yushan, the court has a little dislike with you, in fact, in the final analysis, it is that the seventh master is not happy with you, this is a trivial matter, and there is no need to talk about it. In short, when you are an official and do this courtesy, you are a local governor, you can't let the prince come to the door, isn't it a mistake to compensate you? You have to forgive people and spare people, you enter Beijing, I will make a deal for you, and I will give up. Besides, you know the current situation, and it is time to use good generals. Exactly, if you are not in charge, who is in charge, and if you are not in charge, who will go on the expedition. ”

The last two sentences he used were like a bit of Mei Qiaoling's flavor in them. Yin Sheng laughed and said: "Xiao Na, I see that you are about to catch up with Shanyi, and you will be a fan of drama when you speak." He said to Zhao Guanhou again:

"Guanhou, it's not me mentioning the old things, do you remember when you joined the army to Xinnong? I didn't help you less, and even when you went to the armament, I personally sent it. I am friends with you and Rong An. Xiao Na and Rong An are in-laws, what kind of friendship is I don't need to say, you don't believe in others, you have to believe us. What are you worried about, I can know, no one wants to be Han Xin, and when he arrived at Weiyang Palace, he lost his head. Don't worry, a few of us will guarantee you, how to enter the capital, how to get out. is to go through the motions, so that the local governor knows that it is you who are soft first, and the face of the court will come down. ”

Cheng Zhen said with a black head, "There is an old man to do Fan Xu, standing aside with a copper hammer in his arms, and it doesn't hurt." ”

Zhao Guanhou smiled and toasted the three of them, "Three, the friendship between us, it's a bit far to talk about this." In fact, there is no need for three people to bear such a heavy burden, the younger brother will inevitably enter Beijing. As for insurance, there are also people who are protected. The Albion Minister, Jurdian, and the Prussian Minister, Rex, kept me safe. I think this foreign gun is more powerful than a copper hammer. Besides, I haven't been in Beijing for a long time, and I have to go to see my father-in-law's old man's house, otherwise it will not be the way of the Son of Man. ”

"Okay, with this sentence, then it's best, we can always explain our errand this time." Na Qin Xuan let out a long breath and asked again: "How are you going to release the people in prison?" Anyway, you have to cut a few, right? Shandong self-made, if this is a mess, how big a basket it must be, the court means, kill a hundred people! ”

"This ...... Let's talk about it. Zhao Guanhou smiled, "I didn't kill the one who assassinated the fifth master, it's not appropriate for me to kill." Come, several, let's drink. ”

Tonight, Zhao Guanhou was staying in the jade room, and when he saw him pillowed his head on his stomach and listened to the movements of the fetus, the jade covered his mouth and smiled. After a long time, he said, "I went to the Model Prison today and met the assassin Sanyu Guan...... Unexpectedly, just for a joke, he was so serious. ”

"For you, it's a joke, but for him, it may be a matter of dignity and face, and you have to defend it. Everyone thinks differently and cannot be generalized. Besides, if you are as beautiful as you, if you replace me, you have to maintain it to the end. If you can't bear it, I'll send a message and let him go. ”

Cuiyu shook her head, "His attitude is very resolute, and at this point, he still thinks that the fault lies with you and me, so there's nothing to say, kill him." I don't want anyone to threaten you, or our children. ”

Zhao Guanhou was stunned, "I really didn't expect that jade also has a killing side." ”

"It's not just me, it's also our beautiful chef." Jade smiled, "She went with me today, and she talked to another assassin for a long time, crying and laughing, but when she came out, she told me that she would cook a decapitated meal for this assassin with her own hands, and she could only rest assured to see him shot."
