Wuji County belongs to Zhongshan Kingdom, located at the intersection of Zhongshan Kingdom, Changshan Country and Julu County, leaning on Taihang in the west, facing the Bohai Sea in the east, looking at Youyan in the north, and Hutuo in the south.

The Zhen family has luxurious mansions, continuous fields, and a large number of shops in Wuji County, but none of the troika in Wuji County - county order, county cheng, and county lieutenant - came from the Zhen family.

In the Han Dynasty, where Confucianism was exalted, merchants did not have a high social status, although they were wealthy. Therefore, the Zhen family has worked hard since Zhen Yi, the father of Zhen Yao.

Zhen Yi once served as Shang Cai Ling, Zhen Yi's three sons, in addition to the eldest son Zhen Yu's early death, the second son Zhen Yan, the third son Zhen Yao, the Zhen family all used Zhen Yi's officialdom connections, coupled with the huge economic cost, so that Zhen Yan and Zhen Yan were able to show filial piety.

Zhen Yan is now even more regarded as a general, although this is also just a false name that has been paid for and has no real power, but it can also bluff outsiders and not treat the Zhen family as fat completely.

Because the Zhen family's massive wealth needs power to escort it, Zhen Yao's real power county order and county merchant Cao Peng are highly valued by the Zhen family.

Last night, I got the news that Ye Teng would visit the Zhen family, and the Zhen family, under the leadership of the contemporary talker and Zhen Yao's mother Zhang, sprinkled the court overnight, opened the door early in the morning, and sent a large number of people to guard in front of the teleportation array, so as to return home in time to report the news.

Therefore, when Ye Teng was accompanied by Zhen Yao, he could see the main contemporary talkers of Zhen's mother Zhang and the Zhen family in front of the gate of Zhen's mansion from a long distance.

"The surviving Zhen Zhang's family, with the old and young of the Zhen Mansion, welcome Ye Taishou!" Zhang's courtesy, respectful and enthusiastic!

In the Han Dynasty, women generally married early, so although Zhang was already the mother of many children, the eldest of whom had reached adulthood, she herself was not yet 40 years old. In addition, he has a rich life, pays attention to health, and has been in the top position for a long time, so he looks rich and beautiful, and has a good demeanor.

"Aunt is polite, Teng and Linglang Zhen Jiming, the righteousness of the external subordinates, and the affection of the inner confidant, please treat me as a nephew and nephew, just call me a cousin!" Ye Teng respectfully bowed to the juniors, and the people of the Zhen family around him were moved, how could they ever see a high-ranking official who was humble in front of the Zhen Mansion?

"Don't dare to be, Ye is too polite." Zhang saluted again.

I saw that there were a lot of melon-eating people around in front of Zhen's mansion, and there might even be people sent by the Wuji County government to listen to the news.

Ye Teng simply used his internal strength and said loudly: "Aunt don't be polite, Teng will not be disturbed today as the Taishou of Yanmen County, and only visit Zhen's Mansion as a friend of Zhen Ji's knowing that he is a friend, and his aunt will welcome him from afar, and he will feel warm!" After speaking, he looked around and gave Zhen's mother a color.

Obviously, Ye Teng has the intention of supporting and endorsing the Zhen family!

The gratitude of Zhen's mother and the Zhen family's old and young became stronger, Zhen's mother straightened her waist and stretched out her hand and said, "Please!" "I want to go side by side with Ye Teng.

Doing a full set of plays, Ye Teng insisted on being half a body behind Zhen's mother, respectfully and then walked forward to give face.

——————————

In the hall of Zhen's mansion, Zhen's mother wanted Ye Teng to sit in the main seat, but Ye Teng was unwilling to take the host, insisting that Zhen's mother sit in the main seat and sit on the left-hand guest of honor.

After the two parties sat down, Zhen's mother Zhang introduced her children to Ye Teng one by one:

The second son Zhen Yan is 22 years old, two years older than Zhen Yao, and has started a family, but he is thin and bookish.

The eldest daughter Zhen Jiang is 18 years old, beautiful, quiet and intelligent, and has been assisting Zhen's mother in managing the Zhen family's business.

The second daughter, Zhen Tuo, is 16 years old, with clear eyebrows, shrewd and capable, and also helps her mother take care of the business. And has recruited a son-in-law, her husband Gao Yan is the son of Zhen Yi's family friend, because the family is in the middle of the road, and he is only a poor scholar, he can only take refuge in the Zhen family. Zhang's wife is a daughter, and promises that the eldest son in the future can be surnamed Gao.

The third daughter Zhen Dao is 12 years old, and the fourth daughter Zhen Rong is 10 years old, all of whom are good-looking, and they are still studying at home.

However, the youngest daughter Zhen Mi, who is only 5 years old, was born with pink carving and jade, cute and extraordinary, worthy of being the future of the ancient Luoshen, Cao Zhi Cao Zijian, who is talented and eight buckets, risked the suspicion of ** and wrote the famous article "Luo Shen Fu": Dancing like a frightening Hong, graceful like a dragon. Although the future is not very visible today, it is indeed good. I saw that she kept her big curious eyes open, staring at the guests in the hall, but she refused to follow her sister into the back hall to play.

Looking at the children of the Zhen family, Ye Teng sighed deeply at the sorrow of the merchants of the Han Dynasty. In the Zhen lineage, the man's task is not to do business, but to pursue power protection; Women are the protagonists of business, and the business management system of the Zhen family is completely composed of women: Zhang's, Zhen Jiang, and Zhen Tuo......

After introducing the members of the family, Zhang first expressed his gratitude to his son's boss as a mother: "Xiao'er is in Yanmen, thank you for your care." ”

"Aunt is polite. Ji Mingke helped me a lot!

As you know, although His Majesty entrusted me with the duty of guarding Yanmen, today, it is the world of the family, so I can only clean up those corrupt officials in Yanmen who only have a home, no country, and no social society, and the result is that I can't even make up the number of officials in Yanmen.

I had no choice but to issue an order to seek talents, hoping that the world's poor scholars could go to Yanmen to take up a job, which led to Ji Ming's trip to Yanmen.

Despite this, today's Yanmen still lacks officials, the market is depressed, and Li Shu is uneasy.

Therefore, when I came to Zhen's Mansion to see my aunt today, I also had the intention of asking for help.

I hope that my aunt and Ji Ming can be virtuous and not avoid relatives, and I hope that the Zhen family can contribute to the prosperity of commerce and trade in Yanmen County, Tianma City, and Zhenbei City! ”

Ye Teng said, bowed his hand, and asked for help.

"Zhenbei City?" Zhang was a little puzzled.

"Oh, it's the second territory under my name to be upgraded to the county seat, and the teleportation array was just opened a few days ago, in the depths of the grassland thousands of miles away from Yanbei!" Ye Teng explained.

"Too Shou Lord is polite, too shou is eloquent, courageous, and even thirsty, courteous corporal, even if there is no Zhen family, Yanmen County, Tianma City and Zhenbei City, can also be greatly governed.

The Zhen family is willing to take refuge under the Taishou, and also make a modest contribution to the prosperity under the rule of the Taishou! Zhang's tone became more respectful.

Ye Teng pondered for a moment and said, "Although there is a suspicion of being superficial, but the troubled times are coming, I have to make a suggestion to Madame and the Zhen Mansion, I hope you can consider it carefully with Zhen Yao and the others."

Your Majesty's health is not as good as day by day, He Jinzhi is sparsely talented, the eunuchs are greedy, the family only has the family in the eyes of the family, and the situation of warlords and princes fighting may come soon.

From a certain point of view, Jizhou will definitely be the world of the Yuan family, and without the Yuan family constrained by the imperial court, the Zhen family's massive wealth will be coveted.

I am a stranger, Ji Ming has been out of the Yanmen Gate for a period of time, so you should know my style of acting.

Encouraging farming and warfare, attaching importance to commerce and trade, and not killing chickens for eggs are the basic rules of the forces in Tianma City.

If Mrs. can be trusted, she can move the Zhen family to Tianma City, even if the troubled times come, it will be a happy land.

And I, Ye Teng, will protect the safety of the Zhen family's personnel and property in my lifetime.

Of course, this is not a request, nor a request, just a suggestion, I hope that the Zhen family can make a decision as soon as possible, maybe it won't be long before the world of this big man will be turned upside down. ”

After Ye Teng finished speaking, he gave a deep salute and said no more. began to turn to Zhen Yao, asking to visit the Zhen Mansion and talk and laugh with the Zhen Mansion.
