Chapter 609: What's the Focus?

Wen Manshan, Dongmei, Bian Yujing, Hong Mingcheng and others quickly rushed to Guli Town, and they set off in advance, Hongmen and the headquarters of Hongmen Qianzhuang needed a lot of thought.

Hongmen and Hongmen Qianzhuang, with the background of the government, the previous background was the Caoyun Governor's Mansion, at that time, Zheng Xunrui was a man of his word, controlling the entire Huaibei, not to mention that the predecessor of the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu Liu Zongzhou could not interject, even if it was the cabinet and the emperor, it may not be able to shake the situation in Huaibei, but now the situation is different, Zheng Xunrui left Huaibei and came to Nanjing, and served as the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department. It's relatively low-key for the time being.

However, this situation cannot be sustained for a long time, otherwise it will have a significant impact.

Hongmen's headquarters is located in Nanjing, and its key areas are Huai'an Wharf and Hangzhou Wharf, two places are mainly for Cao Yun, and one is mainly for commercial transactions, so there can be no bias, so the most important force of Hongmen is still arranged in Huai'an and Hangzhou.

The situation faced by Hongmen Qianzhuang is more urgent, a few months, the momentum of the development of Hongmen Qianzhuang has been unstoppable, its influence has gone to the capital, and now the headquarters of Hongmen Qianzhuang has moved to Nanjing, then it needs to be supported by Nanjing scholars and businessmen, so as to grow again, Nanjing's position is by no means Huai'an can be compared, if Hongmen Qianzhuang has a firm foothold here, the impact is incalculable.

The stability of Hongmen and Hongmen Qianzhuang needs the strong support of Zheng Xunrui, otherwise it will not be easy to gain a foothold in Nanjing.

At present, because Hongmen has made preparations in advance, suddenly the headquarters of Hongmen and the headquarters of Hongmen Qianzhuang have started to move very smoothly. There is no problem for the time being, Hongmen Qianzhuang has opened for business, as low as ever.

After Zheng Xunrui listened to the reports of Wen Manshan, Hong Mingcheng and others, he didn't say anything, and now it has no effect to say anything, only he has taken root in Nanjing. Only when it is truly stabilized can we ensure the development and growth of Hongmen and Hongmen Qianzhuang.

Of course, Zheng Xunrui directly asked Zheng Kaihua to deposit all the gold and silver treasures in the family into Hongmen Money, and at the same time, he also asked the Zheng family to deposit all the gold and silver in the family into Hongmen Money.

Zheng Xunrui's words are equivalent to a holy decree in the Zheng family, and no one will object.

When it was dark, Zheng Jinhong rushed back.

Zheng Jinhong was responsible for the placement of the Zheng Jiajun soldiers, and the Zheng Jiajun soldiers who went to Nanjing this time. There are a total of 30,000 people, and only 10,000 of the Zheng family soldiers who stayed in Huai'an remain, and their main escort is the Firearms Bureau.

The scale of 30,000 people is not small, not to mention that it is settled in Nanjing, for the affairs of the Zheng family's military camp, Zheng Xunrui is painstaking, and he finally set his sights on Moling Town in Jiangning County. Moling Town is located at the junction of Shangyuan County and Jiangning County, and the location is in the middle. In case of emergency, you can control the entire Nanjing city, and Moling Town has a spare military camp in Nanjing, this spare military camp was once a specially built military camp when Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, was in Nanjing, and the scale was not small.

When Zheng Xunrui set off from Huai'an. He directly sent letters to the six ministries in Nanjing, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the eunuchs and garrison ministers of the town, informing them that the Zheng family army needed to requisition the military camp in Moling Town, and as for the attitude of the people, he would not pay attention.

The military camp in Moling Town is very dilapidated, although it is a backup military camp for Nanjing. But it has never been used, and there is no sergeant stationed in Nanjing Jingying, and the weeds around are reborn, because it is a military forbidden place, ordinary people are not allowed to approach, Wang Xiaoer, who came to investigate in advance, reported to Zheng Xunrui with bitterness on his face.

The 30,000 soldiers led by Zheng Jinhong arrived at the barracks in Moling Town, and the first thing they started was to tidy up the barracks and remove weeds.

Zheng Xunrui was concerned about those officials in Nanjing, whether they would get in the way, but when Zheng Jinhong led the Zheng family army to Moling Town, the military camp was still the same, no one guarded it, and no one proposed to handle the transfer and other matters.

This situation makes Zheng Xunrui very satisfied, it seems that the prestige of Zheng Jiajun is not small in Nanjing, since it is Zheng Jiajun who needs to requisition the military camp located in Moling Town, even if it is the town guard eunuch Fang Zhenghua, he does not dare to talk much, otherwise it will make Zheng Jiajun angry, and it is impossible to say if he moves roughly.

Entering Nanjing was relatively smooth, the Hongmen headquarters, the Hongmen Qianzhuang headquarters, and the Zheng Jiajun barracks were all in place, and they did not encounter any obstacles, which was still the basis for Zheng Xunrui to go to the Nanjing Military Department.

This is a very good sign, and it indicates that Zheng Xunrui's next action can also be successful.

The dinner began.

Zheng Fulu, Zheng Fushou, Zheng Fuhai, Zheng Funan and others all came to participate, they are Zheng Xunrui's elders, but in front of Zheng Xunrui, the performance is very respectful, you must know Zheng Xunrui's identity, which is completely different from before, and Zheng Xunrui has become the first person in Nanzhili, and the Zheng Jiajun under his command is famous, and the entire Ming Dynasty knows it.

There were three tables at the dinner, and Zheng Kaihua and some of Zheng Xunrui's cousins and cousins attended.

Wen Manshan and other family members sat in the back room, at a special table.

Zheng Xunrui returned home this time, completely dressed and returned to his hometown, although he was very low-key, but it still caused a big sensation in Guli Town, and the surrounding villagers knew that as time went by, Guli Town's fame will become bigger and bigger.

Zheng Xunrui picked up his wine glass and toasted Zheng Fulu and other elders one by one, and drank them all in one gulp.

His performance made Zheng Fulu and others very happy.

Zheng Xunrui also saw that many cousins and cousins all have ideas, either thinking about being able to enter the Zheng family's army, or thinking about being able to enter the government, and some people want to be able to enter Hongmen and Hongmen Qianzhuang.

Zheng Kaitao is the best example, when he came to Zheng Xunrui's side, he is now a general of the Zheng Jiajun and a military attache of the second grade, which is amazing.

Zheng Xunrui has his own ideas, the children in the family, there are not many available, there have been frequent letters between him and Zheng Kaihua over the years, Zheng Kaihua has long described in detail the situation of the cousins and cousins in the family, including some children and nephews, the situation is not very optimistic, Zheng Kaitao is an exception, Zheng Xunrui is trying to plot the world, not to let the people in the family occupy the main position, which will be a big blow to the henchmen around him.

After the dinner, Zheng Xunrui returned to the study, and Zheng Kaihua was in charge of greeting the guests.

"Young master, your eldest brother-in-law Sun Jinru asks to see you."

Zheng Xunrui nodded, and during the meal, Sun Jinru sat at the same table with him, with an expectant expression on his face.

After Sun Jinru entered the study, he had a respectful smile on his face.

"Brother, it's so late, I'm really sorry to disturb me."

"Brother-in-law, just say whatever you want."

Zheng Xunrui is very straightforward, Sun Jinru's development over the years is also amazing, with the help of Zheng Kaihua, his business has also done a lot, not only engaged in the grain business, but also involved in the trade of salt and iron, tea and silk, etc., in just a few years, it has become one of the largest families in Jiangning County.

However, Sun Jinru has a shortcoming, that is, he is lustful, when he was guarding the store in Jiangning County, he ran to the Qinhuai River without anything, just like Zheng Xunrui before the crossing, most of the scholars in Nanjing have such a habit, Zheng Lingli didn't say anything, Zheng Kaihua is the younger brother, and it's not good to say much about such things. Sun Jinru was forced by Zheng Xunrui's majesty, and did not dare to offend Zheng Lingli, that is, to go to the Qinhuai River to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and did not dare to mention the matter of taking a concubine.

"I—I just want to be able to enter and serve the imperial court, brother, you know that I am also a tribute student......"

Sun Jinru's request has long been expected by Zheng Xunrui, it is no wonder that Zhao Danyu and Liang Xingli are developing very well now, Zhao Danyu has even become the prefect of Fengyang Mansion, the official of Sipin, to say that Sun Jinru is not blushing, it is also false, but Zhao Danyu and Liang Xingli have been tempered for so many years, and they have long been different from before, and Sun Jinru is focused on business, plus there is a strong support behind him, it can be said that there is not much real experience.

"Brother-in-law, there are some things I need to say clearly, you want to be an official, this is not strange, I can understand, but you have to know that this is not so easy to be an official, your business is doing well, thinking about what to do as an official, you look at the second brother-in-law and the third brother-in-law's eyes are red, but where can their family property be compared with you, so many years, there are millions of taels of silver in the family, there is no such thing as fame and fortune in the world, since you are familiar with business and trade, then continue to do business well, I came to Nanjing, it is more convenient for you to do businessDon't have other ideas. ā€

Sun Jinru was a little disappointed, but he still had a smile on his face.

"This, this, I always feel like I'm also a reader......"

"If you want to be an official, then make up your mind, but there is one thing I want to make clear, since you want to be an official, then don't think about continuing to do business, when you enter the officialdom, you must abide by the rules, you can do business freely, no one will interfere with you, but to be an official, you have to endure loneliness, and when you enter the officialdom, you can't be a big official, and it's very good to be the head of Gyeonggi County."

Sun Jinru's face changed slightly, and he spoke after a while.

"Well, then I'll think about it and ask Madame what her opinion is." (To be continued......)
