Winters in Jiangzhou are always rainy and foggy;

Zhuang Feng led Xu Wei and Yang Lin back to Jiangzhou, and then he will enter the urban area of Jiangzhou, and he will feel the familiar perception, maybe this is the so-called hometown;

Maybe many people don't like the winter in Jiangzhou, not that the temperature in Jiangzhou is so low in winter; it's just that the rain and fog in Jiangzhou make people feel cold, and the clothes on the body always feel a little damp in winter, and even have a mildew smell; no matter how much clothes you wear, you will always feel that people are wet and cold;

Most of the outsiders don't like the climate of Jiangzhou very much, especially this winter, and even the locals of Jiangzhou don't like winter very much, they prefer summer, although Jiangzhou's summer is also one of the hottest cities in Jinguo, and the temperature is 40 or more when the temperature is highest;

But no matter how hot the summer in Jiangzhou is, it is better than the cold and damp in winter;

Some people don't like Jiangzhou, but some people like Jiangzhou very much; although Jiangzhou does not have the distinction between the seasons of spring and autumn, the summer is hot and sultry, and the winter is humid and cold; Zhuang Feng belongs to the kind of people who like Jiangzhou, which comes back after leaving Jiangzhou for a long time, Jiangzhou is cold and damp in winter and the same as in previous years, but for Zhuang Feng, this feeling is very comfortable;

As for what would make you feel comfortable in a cold and humid climate, it may be the feeling of home;

Zhuang Feng and Xu Wei Yang Lin came back to Nanyuan, and as soon as they entered the gate of Nanyuan, they felt that something was not quite right;

"Young master, the guards have changed;" Yang Lin's mind was the most delicate and meticulous, and he first discovered that something was wrong in Nanyuan;

"Let Xilin come over;" Zhuang Feng listened to Yang Lin's words and whispered there;

After Zhuang Feng finished speaking, Xu Wei naturally put his hand into his clothes and called Zhou Xilin with a walk-ie;

When Xu Wei called Zhou Xilin, Zhuang Feng and Xu Wei Yang Lin did not stop, but naturally continued to walk towards Nanyuan;

Zhuang Feng and Xu Wei Yang Lin entered the front hall, the maid was still the same person, saw Zhuang Feng come back, greeted him respectfully, and then went to get tea and snacks according to the standard procedure;

Zhuang Feng was accustomed to sitting on the customary sofa alone, and Xu Wei and Yang Lin also sat down by themselves;

It seems that everything is going on as usual, and there is nothing out of the ordinary;

Zhuang Feng habitually lit a cigarette, watched the maid serve tea and snacks, and asked out loud, "Where is Sister Lian?"

"Sister Lian is out;" the maid replied to Zhuang Feng;

"What about Sister Hua?" Zhuang Feng continued to ask;

"Sister Hua has also gone out;" replied the maid as usual;

"It's all right;" Zhuang Feng said;

After saying that, the guards also finished their work and left on their own;

Zhuang Feng looked at Nanyuan, which seemed to be as usual, and was a little irritable there, frowning;

After a moment's effort, Zhou Xilin arrived;

"The young master is back;" Zhou Xilin looked at Zhuang Feng, Xu Wei, and Yang Lin, and said there;

Zhuang Feng saw that Zhou Xilin was still there, but he was still frowning, and he didn't change because Zhou Xilin was still in Nanyuan;

Zhou Xilin was responsible for the safety of this Nanyuan, but it didn't mean that nothing happened in Nanyuan, so Zhuang Feng asked out loud: "Xilin, what about the others?"

Zhou Xilin originally looked at Zhuang Feng and Xu Wei and Yang Lin with that rather serious appearance, and thought that something had happened;

"Seventh Master and Mr. Meng have both gone to the metropolis;" Zhou Xilin said calmly;

"Metropolis?" Zhuang Feng still had some questions;

"The matter of Qiaozhou, during this time, the seventh master and Mr. Meng have been busy with this matter, and they haven't come back for several days;" Zhou Xilin still looked calm;

With Zhou Xilin's words, Zhuang Feng reacted;

Zhuang Feng reached a deal with Zhou Jian, and the affairs of the handover of Qiaozhou were handled by Tang Guiyi;

It's just that in terms of the human resources in Zhuang Feng's hands now, Jiang Shao's two states can be managed, and suddenly there is one more state, so the human resources are a little nervous, and the handover of this Qizhou is still in progress, so Tang Guiyi and Meng Yuanhua are so busy that they don't have time to come back to Nanyuan, which is also a normal situation;

As for the change of Nanyuan's guards, I guess they were also transferred to Qiaozhou;

"Why don't I inform the Seventh Master and Mr. Meng to come back?" Zhou Xilin looked at Zhuang Feng and what he was thinking about there, so he asked there;

"Forget it if you're so busy, I haven't eaten your dishes for a long time, how about this big New Year, let Young Master Ben satisfy his hunger?" Zhuang Feng understood that this Nanyuan had not changed, so he said there;

"No problem, I'll do it;" Zhou Xilin said happily;

"I'll do it;" Xu Wei also followed, and it seemed that Zhou Xilin, who was quite rare, was still willing to cook;

"I'll do it myself," Zhou Xilin said jokingly;

"I'll come, I'll come, I'll help cook;" Yang Lin also joined in the fun;

Zhuang Feng looked at Zhou Xilin, Xu Wei, and Yang Lin's jokes, and felt that this was home;

Zhou Xilin, Xu Wei, and Yang Lin left jokingly there, leaving Zhuang Feng alone;

Zhuang Feng, who was alone, was burning a cigarette there, and after thinking about it, he still picked up the phone and called Meng Yuanhua;

Originally, Zhuang Feng had contacted Meng Yuanhua before he came back, and he knew that Zhuang Feng would come back today, but now he didn't see anyone, thinking that it was indeed a complicated affair, and he was so busy that he forgot that Zhuang Feng would come back today;

The phone was connected, Zhuang Fengneng heard Meng Yuanhua's happy mood from the phone, and said there: "Hua'er, I'm back, I've arrived in Nanyuan;"

"It's already here, I forgot it, I still have some things, I'll come back to dinner with you in the evening;" Meng Yuanhua really forgot about Zhuang Feng's return at this time, and said there;

"It's okay, you are busy, I will wait for you to have dinner in the evening;" Zhuang Feng also said quite happily;

"Okay, you must wait for me, you are not allowed to eat alone;" Meng Yuanhua was also quite happy there;

"Okay, wait for you, remember to call the others;" Zhuang Feng said with a smile;

"I know, you're back, how dare we who are small don't go to catch the wind?" Meng Yuanhua said jokingly;

"It's good to know, come back early;" Zhuang Feng said;

"Okay;" Meng Yuanhua replied;

Immediately, Zhuang Feng and Meng Yuanhua ended the call;

After that, Zhuang Feng was used to lighting a cigarette there, and seemed to be a little unaccustomed to the desertion of this Nanyuan; after lighting the cigarette, Zhuang Feng lay on the sofa with him, and fell asleep unconsciously;

When Zhuang Feng woke up, he found that the sky was already dark, but the lights in the front hall were not turned on, thinking that he was afraid of disturbing Zhuang Feng's rest, but the lights in the outer courtyard had been lit, and it looked quite exquisite;

Zhuang Feng used to light a cigarette, did not turn on the light, did not let the maid turn on the light, just sat in the somewhat dim front hall and quietly lit the smoke;

Zhuang Feng likes this feeling, sitting in a relatively dim place, looking at the bright and quiet things outside;

When Zhuang Feng had not finished burning the cigarette, there was a figure shaking at the gate of Nanyuan, and it seemed that many people were walking in;

After a while, Meng Yuanhua walked to the door, saw the scarlet in the dimness, and naturally guessed that it was Zhuang Feng, because Zhuang Feng had this habit, and then said there: "Why didn't you turn on the lights?"

When Meng Yuanhua spoke, he didn't turn on the lights, but just looked at Zhuang Feng;

"Wait for you to come back;" Zhuang Feng replied with a smile;

Following Zhuang Feng's words, Meng Yuanhua turned on the light and saw Zhuang Feng sitting on the sofa burning a cigarette, smiling;

"It's better for you to be idle, we're all so tired that we're about to fall apart, and you're still sitting there;" The lights turned on, and Tang Guiyi's voice also sounded;

"That's, who made me a young master?" Zhuang Feng said with that smiling face;

As Zhuang Feng's words were finished, Zheng Shanxiaoyu and Zhao Yi also greeted Zhuang Feng there;

"Mr. Zheng, what's wrong with you?" Zhuang Feng looked at Zheng Shan's rather tired appearance, and asked;

"I haven't slept for two days, I'm a little tired;" Zheng Shan looked at Zhuang Feng's somewhat concerned appearance, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and then followed Zhuang Feng's words and said there;

"I said Lao Zheng, although you are in the prime of life, don't work too hard that night, pay attention to your body;" Looking at Zheng Shan, Zhuang Feng joked with that;

"No, I think we were all night, ha, how majestic it was, now I'm a little old;" Zheng Shanhe joked;

Zheng Shan and Zhuang Feng have gotten along for nearly a year, and their relationship has become much closer, and they can also joke with Zhuang Feng;

"Haha......" Zhuang Feng also laughed with that, and then continued to say to that: "Xiaoyu, you have lost weight again;"

"That's not for you to squeeze it dry;" The relationship between Xiaoyu and Zhuang Feng is still much closer than Zheng Shan's, and this is relatively casual when it comes to talking;

"You can't talk nonsense, when did I squeeze you dry?" Zhuang Feng joked;

"Do you still say no? Working twenty-four hours a day, people can't live;" Xiaoyu continued to speak solemnly;

"Seriously, Xiaoyu, although you are thin and beautiful now, and skinny is still good, but you have skin and bones left, you should still grow a little longer, you see that you are now like a little chick as you said in that sketch, this is not good, it will damage the image of our governor's hall;" Zhuang Feng said jokingly;

"Go along;" said the fish with a feigned anger;

With Xiaoyu's feigned anger, Zhuang Feng also laughed there, and at the same time, he was used to picking up a cigarette there, naturally pulling out one, and then throwing the cigarette on the coffee table casually, just pay attention to it, Zhuang Feng threw the cigarette in front of Zhao Yi;

Zhuang Feng lit a cigarette habitually, and then said loudly: "Ayi, why don't you look energetic when you are young?"

"Can I say I'm tired?" Zhao Yi said with a pretense of hesitation;

"Yes;" Zhuang Feng changed his serious expression;

"Tired, young master, don't you know that after you left, I had a good time, that's called a sad urge;" Zhao Yi complained as if he was bitter there;

"Now I know the hard work of the superiors;" Zhuang Feng said with a smile;

Zhao Yi took over the affairs of the rivers and lakes in Jiangzhou, which was the first annual festival, and Zhao Yi was also the first time to deal with the affairs of those human stories in the entire rivers and lakes of Jiangzhou, which said that the tired Zhuang Feng believed to be true;

With Zhuang Feng's words, Zhao Yi nodded there;

"Everyone is tired, this seat will treat you, tonight is Shilin himself cooking, satisfied;" Zhuang Feng continued;

"That's the best, I haven't tasted Xilin's craftsmanship for a long time, and I'm really nostalgic;" Tang Guiyi responded first;

"Seventh brother, I don't know, when you weren't there, Xilin and Ben couldn't move, so you cook as soon as you come back, it's really a scorer;" Meng Yuanhua seemed to complain there;

"Why don't I give Shirin to you and let him cook for you every day?" Zhuang Feng said with a smile;

"Then it's free;" Meng Yuanhua hurriedly shirked there;

With Meng Yuanhua's rather nervous look, they all laughed and chatted with each other there;

After a while, the maid came over and said that it was time to eat, and this Zhuang Feng and everyone got up and went to the restaurant;

In the restaurant, Zhou Xilin was serving dishes there, and Xu Wei and Yang Lin followed to the side;

"It's so fragrant;" Zhuang Feng said as he walked into the dining room;

"Well, Xilin's craftsmanship is getting better and better;" Tang Guiyi was also amazed;

"I'll taste it first;" Meng Yuanhua said as he grabbed his chopsticks there, and at the same time his hands were moving;

Looking at Meng Yuanhua's anxious appearance, everyone also smiled, these are all their own people, and there is nothing polite to sit down there;

Zhou Xilin left after serving the food;

Although Zhou Xilin's relationship is closer than that of Zheng Shanxiaoyu and Zhao Yi and Zhuang Feng, Zhou Xilin's identity is there, and sometimes he needs to avoid it;

Zhou Xilin was accustomed to this, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so did Xu Wei and Yang Lin, or it was precisely because of Zheng Shanxiaoyu and Zhao Yi that Zhou Xilin, Xu Wei, and Yang Lin still consciously knew what to do;

There are no outsiders, and it is very casual to eat by yourself;

Zhuang Feng doesn't like to talk about business when he eats, so Tang Guiyi and Meng Yuanhua didn't consciously mention it, but just admired Zhou Xilin's craftsmanship there, and then enjoyed Zhou Xilin's rare cooking skills;

After eating, Zhuang Feng and everyone gathered in the flower hall, served tea there, lit cigarettes, and began to talk about business;

"Zhou Shao and I annexed Pingzhou a few years ago;" Zhuang Feng lit a cigarette and said to the first person there;

Zhuang Feng talked about Zhou Jian's affairs in Pingzhou in general, which explained why Qiaozhou became Zhuang Feng's territory;

"How is the matter in Qiaozhou?" Zhuang Feng said about the matter in Pingzhou, and then asked about the matter in Qiaozhou;

"Zhou Shao's people have basically evacuated, and our people are stationing;" Tang Guiyi said;

Zhuang Feng nodded and motioned for Tang Guiyi to continue;

"The time we took over Qizhou is too short, and what we are most lacking now is manpower, and we can't find enough capable people to go to Qiaozhou at present;" Tang Guiyi continued;

"Alas, what is most lacking in this century is talent;" Zhuang Feng sighed there;

"In fact, the most important thing is the candidate for the head of Qiaozhou;" Tang Guiyi continued;

"Tell me, who do you think is suitable to go to Qiaozhou?" Zhuang Feng asked;

"Liu Jie, Zeng Jianping, or Yang Lin, Xilin can also be;" Tang Guiyi seemed to have already been selected, and said there;

"I also think it's just a few of them suitable, but in the end, it's up to you to decide, Seventh Brother;" Meng Yuanhua echoed Tang Guiyi;

These candidates were originally candidates selected after Tang Guiyi and Meng Yuanhua discussed;

"What do you think?" Zhuang Feng thought for a moment and asked again;

Zheng Shanxiaoyu and Zhao Yi both remained silent, and it was not their turn to interfere in the personnel deployment at this level;

Zhuang Feng looked at Zheng Shanxiaoyu and Zhao Yidu remained silent, thought about it there, and then said: "In this way, send Zeng Jianping out of Zhangqiao Prefecture, and Xilin as his deputy;"

"Well, that's very good; Zeng Jianping has a vision of the overall situation, and Xilin's military literacy is very strong; there should be no big problem for the two of them to go to Qiaozhou;" Tang Guiyi agreed with Zhuang Feng's deployment;

"I also agree, but it will be more difficult to eat Xilin's dishes in the future;" Meng Yuanhua also agreed with Zhuang Feng's decision;

"What do you think?" Zhuang Feng continued to ask;

"Agreed;" Zheng Shanxiaoyu Zhao Yi didn't have anything more to say, because Zhuang Feng's words were just a formality, and their level was still poor, not enough to participate in this matter;

The reason why I came here was because of the slightly lower-level personnel allocation;

"If there is no opinion, then it will be decided;" Zhuang Feng made a final decision;

"Who will take over the guards?" Seeing Zhuang Feng's decision, Meng Yuanhua asked the other person again;

"I'll talk about this later;" Zhuang Feng said casually, as if he had already made a decision;

With Zhuang Feng's words, Meng Yuanhua didn't say anything more, or that this guard office belonged directly to Zhuang Feng, and Tang Guiyi and Meng Yuanhua didn't go to any candidate in advance;

"And the candidates for the trading company?" Zhuang Feng continued to ask;

"I propose to let the Xiaoyu go;" Tang Guiyi was the first to speak;

Tang Guiyi proposed to let Xiaoyu go, which was also what Zhuang Feng thought in his heart, or that Xiaoyu was originally cultivated by Zhuang Feng, and he would take over the affairs of business in the future;

Now the overall situation of business is in the hands of Meng Yuanhua, but Meng Yuanhua's strength is not in the shopping mall, but there is no suitable person to take over now, and Xiaoyu is the person that Zhuang Feng cultivates to take over the business;

Now Xiaoyu has straightened out the complicated affairs of Jiangzhou Trading Company after half a year, which can also show Xiaoyu's ability; Xiaoyu has the ability to manage the trading company and can be regarded as having experience, which sends Qiaozhou to exercise again, to be more familiar with the business styles of different regions, and also to lay a foundation for taking over the business in the future;

"I don't approve, Xiaoyu's ability is very strong, we all know this; it's just that Xiaoyu's time to take over the Jiangzhou Trading Company is too short, I'm afraid he won't be able to convince the public;" Meng Yuanhua somewhat disagreed with Tang Guiyi's proposal;

With Meng Yuanhua's words, in fact, Zhuang Feng also considered this issue; Xiaoyu's time to enter Zhuang Feng's circle is still a little short, as Meng Yuanhua said, seniority is also a problem;

When Zhuang Feng was thinking about it, he looked at Zheng Shan, a person who had been in the shopping mall for most of his life, and Zheng Shan should be the one who had the most say about the trading company;

"Zheng Shan, you say;" Zhuang looked at Zheng Shan and said there;

"We are all sure of Mr. Xiao's ability, but Jiangzhou Trading Company has changed its managers three times this year, and if Mr. Xiao leaves, it may have some impact on Jiangzhou Trading Company;" Zheng Shan said seriously;

Zhuang Feng listened to Zheng Shan's words, thought quite seriously, and nodded at the same time;

Indeed, since Zhuang Feng appeared at the beginning of the year, and then Zheng Shan handed over the trading company; before Xiaoyu was fooled by Zhuang Feng to Jiangzhou, there was Wu Hui in charge, and Wu Hui came and did that kind of thing, now Xiaoyu has easily straightened out the Jiangzhou trading company, if Xiaoyu is transferred out of Xiaoyu at this time, it is true that if Zheng Shan said, Jiangzhou trading company needs stability now;

"Xiaoyu doesn't move first, or is in charge of Jiangzhou Trading Company;" Zhuang Feng thought a lot and made a decision;

For Zhuang Feng's decision, others have no opinions;

Everyone has no opinions, but Zhuang Feng has a sense of helplessness; the lack of human resources has always been the biggest obstacle to restricting development;

Just like when Zhuang Feng swallowed the five states in the southwest, it was also because of the lack of human resources that Zhuang Feng could not operate the land of the five states, and could only destroy but could not establish order;

"Who is the candidate for the affairs of the rivers and lakes?" Zhuang Feng lit a cigarette and continued to ask;

"Wang Puhong or Zheng Xingbing;" Tang Guiyi said;

"I also think that only one of Wang Puhong or Zheng Xingbing can be chosen;" Meng Yuanhua agreed with Tang Guiyi's proposal;

In other words, Meng Yuanhua and Tang Guiyi have the same opinion on this matter;

Zhuang Feng didn't say anything, just looked at Zheng Shan, Zhao Yi and Xiaoyu;

"I think Wang Puhong is more suitable;" Zheng Shan thought for a moment and said aloud;

"Reason;" Zhuang Feng said;

"Qiaozhou was handed over peacefully, and Wang Puhong's behavior style is more mellow, and he is more able to establish good relations with local figures;" Zheng Shan thought for a while and said aloud;

Listening to Zheng Shan's words, Zhuang Feng nodded along with him;

The forces of the rivers and lakes have always been local figures as the main force, and this took over Qiaozhou, and the low-level characters in the rivers and lakes are still mainly locals; with Wang Puhong's character, he is indeed more sophisticated, and he is good at dealing with all kinds of characters;

"I think Zheng Xingbing is more suitable; although the change of ownership in Qiaozhou is a peaceful handover, the locals may not take the opportunity to make some trouble, and if this new owner is too peaceful, I am afraid that people will feel that they are easy to bully;" Zhao Yi said, not agreeing with Zheng Shan's statement;

Xiaoyu didn't express her opinion, and she was not good at this matter, or she couldn't compare to Zhao Yi and Zheng Shan, these old rivers and lakes;

"Let Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing both go to Qiaozhou, with Wang Puhong as the main and Zheng Xingbing as the deputy;" Zhuang Feng thought for a while and made a decision;

With Wang Puhong's old way and Zheng Xingbing's courage, such cooperation should be able to stabilize Qiaozhou;

"This is the best;" Tang Guiyi agreed with Zhuang Feng's configuration;

"Now Ayi has to be even more tired, and the affairs of Jiangzhou are all on him alone;" Meng Yuanhua also agreed with Zhuang Feng's decision;

"Ayi, what do you think?" Zhuang Feng looked at Zhao Yi and asked there;

"If Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing both go high, it is indeed a bit too stressful, but I can still bear it;" Zhao Yi said seriously;

"That's fine;" Zhuang Feng made a final decision;

Regarding Zhuang Feng's decision, everyone didn't say anything more;

"The order will be sent tomorrow, let Zheng Xingbing send a part of the flankers to Qiaozhou together;" Zhuang Feng looked at everyone and had no opinions, and continued to talk there;

"Yes;" Tang Guiyi, Meng Yuanhua, Zheng Shanxiaoyu, and Zhao Yi all responded in unison;

"It's okay to disperse, I won't leave you for supper;" Zhuang Feng said with a smile;

With Zhuang Feng's words, everyone also smiled and said a few polite words there, and then Zheng Shan, Zhao Yi and Xiaoyu also left Nanyuan;
