Li Wenxuan, who was not galloping on the street, was not in a hurry at all. He let the horse move as usual, and when he saw that there were few people in the street, he let the mount under his crotch trot from time to time. Every time Li Muxin was at this time, he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing by his side, which was very energetic, and he couldn't help but let out a "giggle" laugh.

Li Wenxuan has always been happy with his daughter, so he is happy. I could feel that she was really not scared at all. If Li Muxin is replaced by Li Zimo, he can understand the reason why his son is not afraid, after all, that kid's courage is naturally very big, and he dares to climb the treetops to dig out bird eggs alone, let alone this?

Li Wenxuan, who let Ma is walk again, thought about Li Muxin on the way, and did not show the slightest fear, but was very happy. After pondering for a long time, he concluded that his daughter was extremely trusting of himself on the one hand, and on the other hand, because of curiosity and pride in his temperament...... I saw that the woman was so happy, and I was still unsatisfied, so I didn't go directly to Zheng's house, but deliberately spared a lot of a big circle and walked a long way. Zhu Biao, who was also riding a horse, and the leopard, followed closely behind the head of the family, without chatting, but walking slowly, as if he was visiting the scenery of this part of the capital and feeling the humanistic atmosphere.

At the same time, Zheng Renji, who was dressed in a seventh-grade official uniform, was already standing at the gate of his house, a little at a loss, and seemed very anxious to stare at the direction where the guests must pass. After pacing in place for a while, he asked Zheng Yundao, the old housekeeper who was standing not far from him: "You can send two more people to the mouth of the alley and the street, and give me a good look." Once you see Master Li coming, let him come back as soon as possible. ”

It can be regarded as Zheng Yun, who has served three generations of the Zheng family. He understood what he was anxious about, and said with relief: "Second master, you don't have to be anxious. Presumably, Master Li was already on the way. In a little while, it will be there. The reason why I haven't arrived now may be because of a delay on the road, or because there is a delay in official business inside the yamen. ”

This is the truth. Zheng Renji, who didn't listen much, still repeatedly urged him to send someone to investigate. Zheng Yun, who had to obey the order, said that what he said was invalid, so he had to turn around and walk towards the mansion to allocate manpower. Zheng Renji, who walked around the mansion and didn't see his second brother, learned that he was outside the mansion from the mouth of the servant, so he thought that he was the protagonist of today, and could he accompany the guests here?

With his hands behind his back, he feels that he is also Zheng Renji, who is also glorified by the lintel of the Zheng family. The ancestors have been doing business for several generations, and they have never been an official, but in their own generation, with his younger brother Zheng Renji, an official who eats imperial grain, it can be regarded as a wisp of green smoke from the ancestral tomb. In the past few generations, although it is true that they have accumulated a little money, they have not been less angry with the officials. I know very well that they are the kind of people who do business. Not only does he have no political status, but he is also worried from time to time. For fear of the imperial court, the government will raise them as "fat pigs".

Zheng Renji is thinking that if the business is thriving and bigger and stronger, he still has to take the road of collusion between officials and businessmen, and if he does not have the deep background of the official family to support him. Every time you go to a place, you pass a level...... That's peeling layer by layer. I didn't do that before, one is that I don't have a reliable way to trust someone who really trusts me; The second is that their own strength is still quite limited. It's not that there are mountains of gold and silver at home, and they can't be used up. He can't make up his mind, he is already an old man, but he is no longer a hairy boy, and he doesn't care about anything.

It is impractical to consider a thoughtful Zheng Renji, and it is impractical to take out all the money from the family to pave the road and open up the joints, after all, if the money is less, it is equivalent to not sending, the same thing. Besides, the money can still be heard when it is thrown in the water, and the silver that is often given to those officials is finished without even a sound; Three, in his mind, the group of officials are dogs who can't be fed. Not only that, but in the blink of an eye, they can turn from dogs to hungry wolves, and they can find all kinds of reasons to "bring to justice" these profiteers who do business anytime and anywhere.

This time, Zheng Renji, who heard that his younger brother wanted 10,000 taels of silver to dredge the landlord above, didn't even hit a bump, and raised it for him as soon as possible. Of course, he said it very clearly, if this amount of money is wasted, it can be regarded as the future brother will completely divide the family and pay the second child's share of the family property in advance. He has the essence of a trader, and he doesn't suffer inside and out.

Zheng Renji, who really didn't expect the whole thing to go so smoothly, felt more and more that his younger brother was not only quite discerning, but also a person who could do great things. I couldn't help but recall that Zheng Renji tried his best to make friends with Zhao Han, the former second housekeeper of the Li Mansion, and spent a lot of money to package the sisters of the Chu family, so he climbed Li Wenxuan step by step. Since then, he has not only made steady progress, but also followed himself a lot.

Thinking of Zheng Renji here, he couldn't help but regret that he didn't really listen to Zheng Renji's bitter words, and strongly persuaded himself and Li Wenxuan, who were still unknown, and the deputy of Qin Tianjian was married to his sons and daughters. Because of this, he missed it, and he saw that the Li family was now in full swing, and his intestines were full of regret. Still, it's okay. His younger brother finally got involved with Li Wenxuan to a certain extent, and he had a backstage and an umbrella.

Zheng Renji is walking outward, but his mind is constantly empty. Sui County is not too far from the capital, and when Zheng Renji takes over the seal there, takes office, and stands firm, he can also do the business of the old Zheng family there. With his own younger brother shrouded in being a parent official there, then his Zheng family's business will naturally not have any competitors, let alone be oppressed by the local government. If someone can't get along with himself, he can use the power of the government to help, and achieve the goal of monopolizing the local market in order to obtain high profits.

Zheng Renji, who met Zheng Yun head-on, first stopped him, and then further confirmed: "Second master, can you be outside?" (To be continued......)
