"Understood. I'll talk to my eldest brother about it. Steward Zheng has been working hard all the way, so let's go and rest first. "The situation is basically understood, Zheng Jifu sent Zheng Xing away, the other party is the person in charge of running errands, and it is the two brothers who really make the decision.

Zheng Xing went back to the guest room and went to sleep, Zheng Jifu stayed in the living room to think about the problem, he originally wanted to go to the chess courtyard to discuss with the eldest brother immediately, but remembered that the eldest brother had said that he would come over after the meeting before he came back, so he didn't go out.

Fortunately, Zheng Jifu didn't let him wait too long, and after about a pillar of incense, there was a sound of footsteps outside the living room, and people arrived.

"Second brother, how is it, have you met Zheng Shuang?" One foot in the door and one foot outside the door, Zheng Jigong asked anxiously.

"I've seen it. This time he really came with a mission, this is his father's handwritten letter, you can read it first. Zheng Jifu nodded and replied, and at the same time pushed the letter on the coffee table to the eldest brother.

With the task is certain, but looking at the second brother's expression is very solemn, could it be that this task is related to himself?

Thinking of this, Zheng Jigong took the letter and sat down at the coffee table, unfolded the letter and read it.

The letter is not very long, Zheng Jigong read it very quickly, ten lines at a glance, and quickly read it, and after reading the letter, his face became as solemn as his brother.

"Why did you change your mind when you want to send Tan Xiaotian to the capital?" As expected, after reading the letter, Zheng Jigong's first reaction was this.

"Plans can't keep up with the changes." With a light sigh, Zheng Jifu told his eldest brother what he had learned, and as for the housekeeper Zheng Xing's guess, he also told him truthfully.

Listening to the second brother's story, Zheng Jigong's brows couldn't help but wrinkle more and more.

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Tan Xiaotian to go to the capital so early -- every person who is engaged in education work will have an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart when he sees his students thrive, and the better the student's performance, the stronger this satisfaction will be. In fact, if he didn't know that his talent in chess was limited, and it was limited to the rules of the family, some top-secret techniques could only be taught by the family elders or even the patriarch, he couldn't overstep his bounds, he preferred to cultivate it himself, so he would inevitably feel a little lost after learning that his father was going to send Tan Xiaotian to the capital, and that feeling was a bit similar to a farmer who worked hard in the fields for a year, but when he was ready to harvest in the autumn, he was preempted by others to harvest the results. Although this time it was his own father who gave the order. It's also for the benefit of the family, but this feeling still can't be eliminated.

"Big brother, is this Tan Xiaotian going to give it or not?" After talking about the matter, seeing that the eldest brother was still thinking about his thoughts with a gloomy face, Zheng Jifu couldn't help but ask.

"Send, this is my father's instructions, can you and I disobey?" Taking a deep breath and coming back to his senses, Ji Fugong asked helplessly with a helpless expression - the more big families are, the more they pay attention to rank and inferiority. The so-called does not follow the rules, does not form a square circle, the family is big, and the family is dragged with the mouth. The blood relatives of the clan plus the servants and subordinates, as few as hundreds, as many as more than thousands, how can so many people be maintained if there are no rules. The stall has long been dispersed, and although the two brothers of the Zheng family have been operating in Yangzhou for many years, they have already gained a firm foothold. But they also know very well that the reason why Jiangdu Chess Academy can gain a foothold in Yangzhou is that in addition to the careful management of the two of them, the background of the Zheng family is also a necessary condition that cannot be taken lightly.

"Well, yes. So when will it be delivered? Zheng Jifu also sighed and continued to ask-eldest brother didn't dare to disobey his father's orders, he naturally didn't dare, after all, he took Tan Xiaotian to the capital out of consideration for the future development of the Zheng family, and the reason was very sufficient, even if he wanted to disobey the order, there was no justification.

"As soon as possible. The letter is urgent, since it is going to be delivered, there is no need to delay, three days later, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhang need to talk about it, and Boss Lin also needs to say goodbye, three days should be enough. After thinking about it, Zheng Jigong said - it was Lin Baoliang who threaded the needle from it and finally brought Tan Xiaotian to the Jiangdu Chess Academy, Tan Xiaotian left, and the Jiangdu Chess Academy must also give Lin Baoliang a statement, this is the common sense of dealing with people, and if you want to make up for it, you don't know how much effort it will take, this is the so-called multiple friends and multiple roads, and multiple enemies and many walls, no one thinks that they have many friends, no one likes their own enemies, and they want to live in one place for a long time. It is necessary to make more good connections, make more friends, and make fewer enemies.

"It's easy to talk about things on our side, but what about Aunt Tan Xiaotian's side? Meilong Town is hundreds of miles away from Yangzhou, come and go, let alone a month, if you send someone to bring her here to discuss, the time will definitely be too late, and if you don't discuss with her and send Tan Xiaotian directly to the capital, it is inevitable that she will be dissatisfied in the future and ask for someone from us. Nodding his head, after thinking for a while, Zheng Jifu reminded - although the Zheng family's power and connections in Yangzhou are not afraid that Qiu Ju will go to the government to sue them, but this kind of thing of directly sending other people's children thousands of miles away without the consent of the parents is not reasonable after all, once the matter spreads, it will inevitably make the parents of other students worried and damage the reputation of the chess academy.

"Well, this is indeed a problem, so let's do it, you have to work hard, set off with Zheng Xing in three days, first go to Meilong Town to meet Tan Xiaotian's aunt, first, let their aunt and nephew say goodbye, second, try to persuade her to agree to let Tan Xiaotian go to the capital, and third, send some gifts as compensation. In this way, although it is a little far away, fortunately, the general direction is the same, and the time will not be delayed too much. After this matter is done, you can come back directly, and let Zheng Shuang send Tan Xiaotian to the capital, by the way, before leaving, go to Lin Ji Commercial Bank first, ask them to write a letter there, and it is best to send someone to prove it with the past, then Qiu Ju can rest assured that Tan Xiaotian will come to Yangzhou to learn chess must also be a woman with some brains and knowledge. Zheng Jigong instructed.

"Okay, let's do it." The eldest brother explained the matter very clearly, Zheng Jifu has nothing to add, just run errands, Tan Xiaotian's chess skills before coming to Yangzhou already had a considerable level, and he was actually very curious about what kind of education he received in Meilong Town.
