The day after Yang Zhi returned to Penglai, he moved into the mansion that the Bai family had carefully purchased for him. His identity as a messenger has long been made public, and it is obviously not suitable to live in the Qin branch again, Linglong will also land sooner or later, and he must have a decent foothold in Penglai.

The house is beautifully furnished, and everywhere is a fine and elegant pile of silver. This mansion is actually the outer residence of Yang Zhi and Linglong in Penglai, the status of this couple is extremely honorable and rich, and it is not a simple squandering of silver to work luxury and vulgarity, and the father and daughter of the Bai family can be said to have worked hard at all costs.

The Bai family is known as the master of medicinal materials, which is a bit loud in Penglai, a palm-sized place. People are self-aware, and compared with the Qin family, the Bai family can only be regarded as a street vendor at best. Penglai has no shortage of powerful merchants like Bai Xinglang, and he can count a handful with his eyes closed. If it weren't for the coincidence that Yang Zhi broke Qixi's killing machine and picked up a life, so he had the perfect excuse to repay his kindness, otherwise big people like Yang Zhi would not even look at him. But now when others are scratching their heads about how to tie up with Yang Zhi, he has successfully connected with Yang Zhi.

Bai Xinglang is very fortunate and very knowledgeable. He was very glad that the second son of the Qin family had taken a fancy to his daughter, and he was glad that his baby daughter and Qin Jiaoyang were in love, not sacrificed for the Bai family. What's even more fortunate is that because of this, he caught up with Yang Zhi, a big man.

Bai Xinglang also secretly told his daughter that he must absolutely guarantee that he would keep his mouth shut about the wedding on Dangji Island. Even if everyone in the world knows that Linglong is the number one pirate leader in the Beiyan Sea in the future, the new wife of his Flying Tiger Marquis must and can only be the Changping County Lord of Beiyan. On that day, Yang Zhi not only accepted the wedding ceremony of 100,000 taels of silver sent by Bai Ranbing, but also sent her away from Dangji Island on the grounds of buying a mansion. In Bai Xinglang's eyes, it was a blackmail that made him feel extremely honored, and he cherished the opportunity to be blackmailed by Yang Zhi very much. There will be a return on investment, and businessmen understand this truth, and it is rare that his expensive investment is also covered with a fig leaf of gratitude.

Along with the mansion, there is also a title deed, Bai Xinglang called "Engong" instead of "Hou Ye", and only said very sincerely, "Don't dislike it if you are careful". Yang Zhi is not thin-skinned, if he refuses to accept it pretendically, it seems that Bai Xinglang will be more uncomfortable than digging the ancestral grave of the Bai family. The so-called helping others is the foundation of happiness, so I have to "helplessly" laugh.

No matter what era it is, the business tycoons have a keen sense of smell that is almost bloodthirsty for the current situation and money.

Less than a month after the last arrival in Penglai, Feihuhou transferred troops to close the road, and openly charged a starting price of 50,000 taels of "silver". But his old man is fighting pirates and protecting the land and the people. It has no impact on the business and the circulation of goods in and out of each family, and it has no offense against the people at the bottom, even if you have a stomach full of grievances and no reason to sue, no one dares to sue. If anyone gets into the water in his brain to sabotage Feihu Hou's "big plan to suppress bandits" and cut off his financial route, I am afraid that he will be cut off from his life. Piracy is both the most terrifying and the greatest threat. Naturally, they can also bear the blame for all heinous crimes. Want to compete with that madman surnamed Yang? Are you tired of being alive?

Feihuhou quietly went to sea and disappeared for half a month this time, and there was a peaceful scene in the entire Beiyan Sea area that had not been encountered for decades. - People are busy! The three pirates are busy merging, where is the spare time to go to the sea to kill and rob? Yang Zhi's urgent dense recital to Chang'an is sprinkled with more than a dozen pages, and the theme is, of course, centered on the thrilling "fierce battle at sea". Without him, continue to bury Fuer for making money in the future.

At this time, Shandong's large and small officials and business tycoons all smelled the smell: this uncle had already pinched the important treaty port in his hands, and it was very likely that the sea route had been cleared. This is a ruthless and unconventional master, as long as the brain is not short of two pounds and two people will not doubt this. If you want to continue to make a fortune in the future, I'm afraid you have to look at his face.

If these two groups of people are a river nourished by silver, then Yang Zhi is now equivalent to installing a floodgate for this river. He is not a vested interest in eating in the same pot for the time being. I'm afraid I'm afraid of provoking him, so I pull a bubble of into this pot, and everyone can't eat it. He has already made a hard stroke, even if he pats his ass and leaves immediately, he will not suffer at all. It's reassuring to know that no one has a grudge against silver. This guy is under the banner of being ordered to inspect, is it really selfless and full of effort to serve the emperor? Who the believes it? Haven't you seen other people's methods of scraping the ground so familiar and old?

According to Yang Zhi's estimates, it will be a month before the combined fleet reopens after modification and integration. He plans to use this month to do three things.

The old oilmen who are mixed in the officialdom all believe in such an unwritten law: those who are invincible on the battlefield are those who are prosperous in the court. When it comes to the intricate local officialdom, it is usually difficult to eat.

Wang Yuxin, the commander of Penglai County, only habitually tested Yang Zhi on the matter of temporarily supplying food and salaries for 3,000 soldiers. Although the temptation was harmless, it was far more inappropriate in the circumstances. His mistake was that he wanted to be oily and smooth. Fantasy that no one can be offended, but he meets a super strongman who does not allow him to try to ride the wall at both ends. It was Yang Zhi who not only kicked this person far aside to enjoy the cold, but also was extremely tired of this sesame mung bean petty official in his heart.

Whether it is to build the Long Island Islands camp into his rear base camp in the future, let Penglai become a money printing machine in his own hands, or successfully set up the Daxia Customs in Jinan Mansion to share a piece of the pie to the emperor, Penglai County Order is undoubtedly a crucial key role. It is better to be held by your own people for a long time.

Therefore, the first thing Yang Zhi considered after landing was how to make the current county magistrate Wang Yuxin work for him, or simply push Mr. Yi to this position. Of course, the best strategy is to try to make Wang Yuxin surrender to him, so that the existing pattern of the forces of all parties will not be disturbed at least on the surface, and it can be said in front of the emperor. The middle strategy is to find a person who will transfer Wang Yuxin to a different place, and promote or select a benevolent brother who knows the opposite path to take over. The strategy is the simplest, but it is tantamount to unscrupulous brutality: concoct an incident of pirates raiding and plundering at night, let Wang Yuxin "die" unfortunately, and then forcibly appoint Mr. Yi as the new Penglai County Commander.

Summoning Mr. Yi to sum it up, who knew that it was just a piece of cake in his eyes: "Master Hou, this best policy can be done in just a few words, why worry so much?" ”

"Oh?" Yang Zhi asked with interest: "You said it lightly!" Let me hear about it. ”

Mr. Yi said with a smile: "In terms of ethics, officials can generally be divided into honest and corrupt. There is a way that when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no disciples. Nowadays, it is extremely rare for the six relatives not to recognize the officials who are as clear as water, and even if there is, if there is no very strong backstage support, or if he is indeed outstanding, it is difficult to wear the black gauze hat on his head for a long time. What is certain is that Wang Yuxin is by no means such a stupid bird and a clean official, otherwise he would not be able to find this fat shortage. As long as the old boy's ass is not clean, then everything is easy to say. ”

"Those who become officials in troubled times are either obsessed with fame or seek wealth and nobility, as long as they can rank third for the country and the people, they can be called good officials. Wang Yu's New Year's Day is not confused, he is still from the official residence of the seven products, either the ability is not good or the background is not hard enough, and the ten ** are smashed by silver. Whether he is an official for the future or for money, isn't it all a matter of your words? Where did he go to find such a hard backstage for you? It is said that people go to high places, and goods like Wang Yuxin still have the eyesight to recognize the master. But this master is really not good to admit rashly, otherwise if the old master is offended to death, and the new master is not waiting to see him, wouldn't he be able to eat and walk around? ”

"So you just have to pretend that you don't know, just know what to do, and I'll come forward and give him a few words. If he is half-hearted, or if something big happens one day, you can push it all on me, but he is killing himself! As long as he is not hopelessly stupid, he will definitely be loyal to Hou Ye. ”

Yang Zhi didn't expect Mr. Yi to be able to say such a long truth, and he couldn't help but think so, when he asked Mr. Yi to choose the right time to "talk" to Lord Wang as soon as possible.

The next two things can actually be said to be one, and they are a bit shameless. Seeing that the New Year is approaching, Shandong officialdom and a businessman, Yang Zhi decided not to touch it for the time being, but he must use all the power of the Qin family in Shandong to find out the bottom and give them a wake-up call by the way.

Hanako has a Chinese New Year's Eve, and pirates will also want to have a good year, let alone the Flying Tiger Marquis and his old man. Not every big merchant "voluntarily" paid the "salary", and without the protection of the soldiers and horses of the Great Xia, one night before the Chinese New Year, the pirates had to go to the key patronage.

Feihu Hou couldn't even go back to Chang'an to reunite with his family during the Chinese New Year, which was really hard work. Qin Jiaoyang and Bai Xinglang took the lead in setting an example, and then released a little wind, and the "filial piety" of the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods from all walks of life will come like a tide. It's okay if you don't come, but when the time comes, you will be robbed by pirates or have no business to do, don't blame me!

Yang Zhimei thought, how can I make two million taels of silver for the New Year in Penglai, right? So when Linglong sent someone to ask for a loud signboard for the business established after the merger of the three companies, he did not hesitate to come out of his mouth with three words: Jinlilai! It's called Jinlilai!

However, on the fourth day of Yang Zhi's landing, that is, on the 13th day of December in the 25th year of Xia Li Wucheng, his wishful thinking was completely disrupted by a small note two fingers wide sent by Qin Jiaoyang. This small note came from Chang'an, and he recognized it at a glance as Xu Wenhan's strong handwriting: Return to Chang'an quickly! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent!
