Recalling the earnest teachings of the Qing envoy, Fan Sanba also fell into deep thought.

On the other hand, Zhou Renrong came back to his senses and looked at Fan Sanba.

Zhou Renrong launched several relationships in the Zhejiang Guild Hall, but he still couldn't get an accurate number. Jingshi is the heart of the world, where humanities and wealth gather. In this place, buy low and sell high, hoard, default on payment, and manipulate the market......

Any business is a huge profit. For hungry wolves, where is it that a simple relationship can get rid of the fat in the mouth?

Because of this, Zhou Renrong didn't see a tooth man loose for five days. Moreover, the reason used by these tooth people is even more high-sounding: to stabilize the market for the new emperor to ascend the throne.

When Zhou Renrong heard it, he could only feel ridiculous. You must know that it is these local profiteers who hoard and raise prices to make huge profits, not foreign businessmen like Zhou Renrong who have worked so hard to transport the goods.

After staying up for another three days, Zhou Renrong, who still hadn't seen anyone let go, completely understood that the situation was not good, and he was in a very bad mood.

At this time, Fan Sanba came out.

He sent someone to spread the word, and he was willing to do it to help Zhou Renrong settle his teeth. The condition was just to let Zhou Renrong resell all the grain that Zhejiang merchants planned to buy into Jingshi to Shanxi. Or rather...... All of them were resold to the Jin merchants headed by the Fan family.

Today's Jin merchants are wealthy, and the subtext of a negotiable price is actually ...... Despite the lion's big mouth shouting.

This couldn't help but make Zhou Renrong overjoyed, and immediately made an appointment to meet at the Qianyuan Teahouse.

For Zhou Renrong, who is the grain sold to is not to sell, and Fan Sanba has to give a high price, which is not an embarrassing condition at all, some are just cans of honey, how not to surprise him?

It's just that Fan Sanba's repeated confirmation today made Zhou Renrong feel a subtle premonition.

"I have a lot of old friends in Beijing. The strength of the Jin merchants was known to the princes of the court and the powerful people of the capital from the beginning of the opening of the Chinese law. Especially this time, the border general entered the king of Beijing Qinwang, which made my fellow villagers in Shanxi make a lot of friends. Fan Sanba talked eloquently, and Zhou Renrong's smile appeared when he heard it, but he was vigilant.

It is not an ordinary thing for the other party to show off like this, Zhou Renrong said softly: "The Beijing division is half a Zhejiang person, and it is not worth the name." The compatriots and friends of the Zhejiang people in Beijing have never been less. ”

"Yes, it does. Therefore, learn from each other's strengths, take what you need, and get your own benefits. Fan Sanba smiled leisurely: "It's just that I can make Jingzhong Yaxing sell face for Brother Zhou Xiandi's goods." But there are hundreds of department stores, and there are dozens of tooth people? Even if I gave up my face this time to sell face for my virtuous brother, others couldn't care about it. Even if you can sell face this time, the next time you can ...... The same can't. ”

"Merchants sit in Jia, and business opportunities are fleeting. It is useless to talk about these uncertain things in the future. Zhou Renrong smiled, but reluctantly. He was keenly aware of the key implications.

Sure enough!

Fan Sanba was only willing to get Zhou Renrong to do it, but those fellow Zhejiang businessmen had to figure it out by themselves!

It is said that the friends of the dead are not dead and poor. Zhou Renrong doesn't need to care about others. But he couldn't. This is not only because of the friendship between fellow villagers and mutual assistance, but also because Zhou Renrong felt a kind of pressure to be killed.

The higher you hold it, the worse it falls.

Once Zhou Renrong chooses next, he will choose to break with his fellow villagers in Zhejiang and give up the same advance and retreat that he once promised.

"In business, being able to make money is the first priority! Other minutiae don't need to be considered. ”

"There must be traps, there must be conspiracy. There is no free dinner party in the world, Fan Sanba, what the hell are you doing! ”

The two words rose in Zhou Renrong's heart, making him feel puzzled, and it was like being swayed and torn left and right by the heart of an angel and a demon.

Fan Sanba's chuckling voice sounded slowly, like a little demon with black sharp horns on his head, his words were soft, releasing words that strongly shook people's minds.

He figured out that the fire was ready.

"So ......" Fan Sanba looked at Zhou Renrong with a smile and said, "I heard that Brother Zhou has a brother in the same township who has been friends since childhood and has formed a family friendship. Now...... Worked at the Jingxi Ordnance Workshop. There is nothing else to ask for, only the drawings of this thing...... Very important. If Brother Zhou does not hesitate to say a word, Jingshi will give it with both hands. Brother Zhou wants which Zhejiang businessman friend in the same township is convenient to enter Beijing. If you want to make it inconvenient, you can make it ...... Inconvenience! In addition, the conditions offered by the brother of Brother Zhou. I'm here to help! Note...... Regardless of the conditions. ”

As he spoke, Fan Sanba quietly moved a tooth card and a drawing with only an appearance on the table.

Zhou Renrong's eyes widened suddenly, all the questions suddenly became clear, and a question that had puzzled him for a long time quietly had an answer: "Dare to ask...... The 400,000 stone grain you want may not all go to Shanxi! How many are there...... Will you go to Zhangjiakou then? ”

Zhangjiakou was the place where the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols traded with each other. But today's Mongolia has long since surrendered to Jiannu. At this time, if grain, an important strategic material that is urgently needed in Beijing, is moved to Zhangjiakou, it is self-evident whose pocket it will go into at that time.

Thinking of this, Zhou Renrong tensed his body and tried his best to control himself from looking at the tooth card. But no matter how hard he tried to control it, Zhou Renrong still quietly set his eyes on the drawing.

Fan Sanba did not respond to Zhou Renrong's question, but said leisurely: "Get the drawings of this object on the portrait...... All your worries will disappear. You'll be greeted with astronomical profits! ”

The drawings are very clear, the sharp bayonet, and the slender barrel all prove that this is the rumored Ming Imperial Guard Legion to win many battles and defeat Jiannu easily The weapon of the Ming military - Chongzhen 16th year firecracker!

……

Meanwhile.

In the Wuying Palace, the conference is still going on.

After Zhu Cihong told Li Jiantai's situation, there was a buzzing noise in the room.

Lu Qingyan was a little puzzled, and immediately got up and asked, "Your Majesty!" I have always had the most serious internal and external troubles. No matter how strong the Li thief is, the officers and troops often have a record, and the inland soldiers can also win. The border army, which was stronger than the inland soldiers, could hardly defeat Jiannu. In this way, the strength of Jiannu is naturally obvious to all. However, doesn't my Ming Dynasty have a stronger Royal Guard Legion than Jiannu? Why don't you send a fierce general under the command of the Holy Lord to kill it in one fell swoop and restore the land of Qin and Jin? ”

Lu Qingyan's logic is layered, but it is very convincing. The inland soldiers are of the same grade as Li Zicheng's soldiers, but compared with the border army, the inland official army is worse, and compared with Jiannu, the border army is worse. When I counted them, I found that there was a stronger Royal Guard. Obviously, in the impression of everyone, the Royal Guards Regiment is not easy?

Zhu Cihong's face flashed with embarrassment, and he said slowly: "In an emergency, at least this year, it will be difficult for the Guards Legion to send troops. ”

Hearing this, Liu Tongsheng, the champion of Chongzhen's ten-year reign and the current editor of Hanlin, stood up and said with a heavy face: "Holy Lord, is it true that the rumors in the market that the Guards Legion is infected with the plague?" ”

"There is indeed some plague spreading in the army, and I will not hide it, and the fifty-six confirmed cases of soldiers updated to an hour ago have not been concealed. However, compared with the soldiers who were confirmed to be infected with the plague, our current medical understanding is still too little. More soldiers had to be quarantined, so they couldn't be dispatched for a while. Such an accident is not something that any of us want to see. Zhu Cihong looked around at everyone and said, "This is the direct reason." But more importantly...... I understand ......"

Zhu Cihong paced, with his hands behind his back, looked at the ministers, his emotions were sincere, and he said in a heartfelt tone: "A military victory is always only a temporary victory. The military is always only a continuation of politics, not the whole of the empire. It is not difficult to defeat Li Zicheng. The difficult question is whether we understand what is supporting Li Zicheng, and what is the cause of this catastrophe that has swept almost half of the empire? And we...... Can you solve him! There is no answer to this fundamental question before the thin victory...... It's too small, it's too humble. Even if it is me, the Ninety-Five Honor, it is not a holy decree from Chrysostom that can make the people die down. ”

"Kill all the thieves in the world, and the world will naturally be calm!" In the crowd, a young man with a resolute face burned into a feverish gaze.

"The people are not afraid of death, why should they be afraid of death?" Zhu Cihong sighed lightly: "Our people are the loveliest people among all the nations in the world. I, Daming, my people of Zhu Cihong, are the most qualified and respectable people in the whole world. They will never rise up and rebel until the last trace of desperation and hope is cut off at the last point. ”

There was silence in the room.

But such silence, between Zhu Cihong's sincere emotions from the heart, quietly infected everyone present. They looked at Zhu Cihong's young face and vicissitudes of life, and felt a long-lost touch.

This is the throbbing of seeing a confidant, and the excitement of seeing the appearance of Ming Jun in history.

Perhaps, this one emperor will really change the world and save the empire that is about to collapse. Even...... Make him better and stronger.

At least, more people believe. Following Zhu Cihong, at least this empire will no longer be so cruel and weak!

"My Emperor is merciful!" Liu Tongsheng shouted slowly.

"My Emperor is merciful!"

"My Emperor is merciful!"

……

"The people lost their land, so they became tenant farmers, and their vitality was gradually cut off, and little by little they were squeezed out of the last trace of oil and water. When natural and man-made disasters such as floods, droughts, and locust plagues broke out, millions or tens of millions of victims stood on the opposite side of the empire against the imperial court they once supported. If this problem cannot be solved, it will be difficult for any simple wish and firm perseverance to make an effect. So, I'm determined to change all that! Zhu Cihong's words were sonorous and powerful, as if gold and iron were contending.

Suddenly, a fire exploded in Lu Qingyan's chest, blazing, rejuvenating the vitality of the young official's body.

A voice kept jumping in his head: "Follow him!" He is determined to change the tragic status quo of this ancient empire. He was looking out for the most humble and needy people in the empire. This is a great and proud cause! ”

More people are like Lu Qingyan, their faces are solemn, and their chests are burning with majestic ambitions.

This is a call from the emperor to whom they are allegiant, their monarch father!

"I am willing to serve my emperor!"

"Bow down and die!"

"My emperor is wise, and Weichen is willing to serve!"

……

"My power alone is limited. I also understand that there are too many stupid officials in the court today. I know that people will ask about corruption, and of course I have the determination and strength to be corrupt, but time has told me, and the people who are struggling on the brink of death have told me that we have no time. I need a strong team, a brave team that will truly fight to change the world and build a better empire. Zhu Cihong looked around at everyone: "And you are really the first batch of brave people who are willing to believe." Our team is looking forward to your joining, let us break free from the shackles of a century-old tradition together, and make the next great cause in history! ”

"Liu Tongsheng, do you still remember what you did when you resigned and returned to your hometown? Your countrymen remember everything about you. Reduce land rent, be kind to neighbors, and help students. This is private morality. I appreciate you. Lobby the township, build water conservancy, build bridges and pave roads, and persuade the displaced people to go to farming. It's public business. I appreciate you! ”

"Lu Qingyan! Do you remember the ambitions you made back then? I don't want to laugh at the prince, and I am willing to plough the society. In the face of these great mountains and rivers, I tell you that there is still a place for pragmatic people like you! ”

"There are also Li Caishan and Huang Conglie...... I remember you. Ma Zheng and Medical ...... This is all a study that has been applied by the world. Ladies and gentlemen, have I already sealed the ambition of making contributions and going down in history? Tell me your answer! ”

Zhu Cihong's voice seemed to have a sense of rhythm like a drum, and it was slowly sold, pouring out the emotions in his chest, infecting all the officials present, young and old.

It must be admitted that even at the height of the empire, there was still a group of people who were willing to stand up and stand firm in their beliefs and unswerving in this world of hardship.

Lu Qingyan, Liu Tongsheng, Li Caishan, Huang Liecong and other ordinary officials who did not leave their names in history faced the call of the Ming Emperor at this moment, and suddenly, tears poured out like a reservoir that opened the floodgates. The decades of accumulated wisdom in their chests, and the desire to bend the knee to the knees poured out, so that these ordinary officials could no longer restrain their emotions at the moment.

Liu Tongsheng made a gesture to bow down and perform the nine bows. Zhu Cihong strode over, supported the Hanlin editor, and said, "Don't care about these false gifts anymore." Gentlemen, follow me and struggle! For a new and beautiful empire! ”

"Serve my emperor! Do your best! Liu Tongsheng was very firm word by word.

"Serve my emperor! Do your best! ”

"Serve my emperor! Do your best! ”

In the field, the sound of chanting went straight into the sky. (To be continued.) )
