It was almost noon, and the warm spring breeze brought up the catkins in the sky, and the Qinwangzhuang, which was lying quietly in the boundless fields, dressed up a different kind of poetry and painting.

Regarding Han Zhen's sudden appearance, Zhu Youzhen was really not mentally prepared. He secretly glanced at Lin Youkun, who was in charge of the security work, but when he saw Lin Youkun's face flushed and helpless, he knew that his sentry agents were ineffective in front of Han Zhen. If this mysterious son was really an assassin, then Zhu Youzhen would have hung up at this time.

Fortunately, Han Zhen always has such a sincere and warm smile, and he doesn't look like an assassin no matter how he looks at it. Zhu Youzhen just wanted to do his best to be a landlord and invited him to have a cup of tea, only to remember that this Qinwangzhuang is full of farmers, and so far there is still zero business, not even a small tea shop. He didn't want to reveal his identity, so he hesitated for a while.

Han Zhen smiled heartily: "You Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, let's sit on the ground and watch the children play, it's also very interesting!" ”

Zhu Youzhen had to sit side by side with Han Zhen, and suddenly felt that there was a faint fragrance on his body, thinking that he was wearing something like a sachet. But he was covered in stinky sweat, Han Zhen raised his nose and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Zhu Youzhen's old face turned red when he boarded, and he smiled awkwardly: "The little brother talked about the boyish madness, which made Brother Han laugh." ”

Han Zhen said curiously: "Are the children playing Keju?" I've never seen this kind of gameplay, is it You Gongzi's own creation? ”

"It's called 'football', and it's fun!" Zhu Youzhen's eyebrows flew and danced. In his college career in his previous life, in addition to a broken computer, there was only this round thing that could accompany him inseparably.

"Xiao Ke has been here for a while, it looks like Gongzi You is teaching these children?" Han Zhen asked seemingly casually.

For some reason, Zhu Youzhen always felt that Han Zhen's eyes had a magical power, which seemed to be able to melt the ice in a person's heart. In front of him, it was too difficult to lie, so Zhu Youzhen had to answer honestly: "Yes, the little brother is giving them a physical education lesson." ”

"Class? Physical education? Han Zhen was stunned for a moment, and asked more curiously, "I don't know what Gongzi You does for a living, and he has such leisure to be a gentleman for the children?" ”

"To tell you the truth, the younger brother is the owner of the newly established Jingyang Business Gang." Zhu Youzhen had no choice but to avoid the important and replied lightly, "The Jingyang Business Gang has just funded the establishment of a primary school, and because of the lack of a gentleman, the younger brother has to make a temporary cameo. ”

"Oh? But Xiao Ke listens to You Gongzi's accent, doesn't it look like a Jingyang person? "Han Zhen's question is sharper.

Zhu Youzhen was sweating from Han Zhen's question, so he had to say nonsense: "The younger brother's ancestral home is Jingyang, and he actually just moved from Beijing. This time when I returned to my hometown, I had to do something good for my parents and fellow villagers, so I set up a porridge factory and a primary school. ”

"Then the Champs-Elysées in Xi'an City, I'm afraid it's also the property of the Jingyang Merchant Gang, right?" Han Zhen suddenly laughed teasingly.

Zhu Youzhen's face was as ashamed as a big red cloth, and it took a long time to say in a whisper: "It turns out that Brother Han already knows!" In fact, the younger brother had to accept the jade pendant yesterday in order to make friends with Brother Han. Brother Han's 30,000 taels of silver have not been touched at all, and they are still stored in the Champs-Elysées, and the younger brother is about to find Brother Han and return it to you! ”

"Don't misunderstand." Han Zhen said leisurely, "Actually, Xiao Ke should apologize to his son, because Xiao Ke is actually a businessman, and when he first arrived in Xi'an, he wanted to find cooperation with the local chamber of commerce." But Xiao Ke is a cautious person, and he is quite picky about the businesses he cooperates with, not only in terms of business ability, but also in terms of morality.

"These days, you can look at the major chambers of commerce in Xi'an, all of them are people who only seek profit for themselves and don't care about the life or death of others, and only the newly established Jingyang Business Gang has a good reputation. So yesterday, the younger brother went to the Champs-Elysées and was fortunate to meet You Gongzi, so he tested Gongzi. ”

"Then how did you know that the little brother is the owner of the Jingyang Business Gang?" Zhu Youzhen said in surprise.

Han Zhen Shiran smiled and said: "The shopping mall is like a battlefield, knowing yourself and knowing that the other side can not be defeated." Let's not talk about these first, Xiao Ke has another question to ask Childe: Since it is enough to build a school and teach students to read the books of sages, why do you still have courses in arithmetic, music, and physical education? ”

Of course, Zhu Youzhen couldn't tell him: he wanted to select talents and prepare for becoming emperor in the future. However, he also prepared a set of words, which he used at this time: "Brother Han doesn't know that the younger brother doesn't want the students to participate in the imperial examination, but hopes that they will learn some practical skills and be able to use them in the future." For example, arithmetic, if you want to do business, is essential; Music can cultivate feelings, relieve fatigue, even if life is hard, as long as there is music to accompany it, it will add a lot of fun; As for sports, it is even more important, the body is the capital of everything! ”

Han Zhen listened, but shook his head slightly and said: "But these children are all farmers, and they can only farm when they grow up, isn't it a waste of time and energy to learn these things?" ”

"Not necessarily." Zhu Youzhen said, "Who said that a farmer's son must be a farmer and can't do business?" ”

Han Zhen said disapprovingly: "Gongzi You, not to mention that our dynasty manages the people of the world with household registration, farmers, military households, artisan households, and merchants are clearly distinguished, and they cannot be disrupted; Let's just say that this scholar is a farmer and an industrialist, and the scholar is the official eunuch in the first place, followed by the peasant households, the artisan households are the second, and the merchants have the lowest status. If you want these people to give up their status as farmers to go into business, how can they be willing? ”

"Brother Han, your view is a bit outdated." Zhu Youzhen said with a smile, "If the world is different, things will be different, and if things are different, they will change." It is not more than 200 years ago that businessmen are becoming more and more important in social life, and their wealth far exceeds that of ordinary peasant households. Besides, the situation in the court is like this, and there are many people who abandon their households, and the government can't control it at all. Don't hide it from Brother Han, the younger brother is trying to select some of these children and enrich them into the Jingyang Business Gang! ”

Han Zhen listened carefully, and then pointed to Ekaterina in the distance and said, "These make sense, but why does Gongzi use a Fanbang woman as a gentleman?" If it is not my race, its heart will be different, isn't the son afraid that she will teach the children badly? ”

Zhu Youzhen already felt that Han Zhen seemed to be testing himself, so he replied carefully: "No matter what nationality it is, human nature is actually the same, they all like truth, goodness, and beauty, and hate falsehood, evil, and ugliness. The reason for the constant disputes is nothing more than the lack of communication and the competition for resources. The younger brother let this girl be a gentleman, which enhanced mutual understanding between China and foreign countries, which is a good thing! ”

"As for the competition for resources," Zhu Youzhen said firmly, "this is not something that the people of the two countries can decide, but mainly depends on whether the monarchs and nobles of their countries are greedy or not." If we can respect each other and protect our own territory, we will naturally be safe; If one side wants to bully the weak and invade or even destroy the other side by force, the invaded side has no choice but to fight back. In the end, the greedy side will be consumed by greed.

Therefore, the younger brother felt that there was no need to be naturally hostile to the Fanbang people. There is a song that sings well: When a friend comes, there is good wine, and if the jackal comes, he is greeted with a shotgun! ”

After hearing this, Han Zhen suddenly stood up solemnly and bowed to Zhu Youzhen. Zhu Youzhen hurriedly hugged him and said, "Brother Han, what do you mean?" ”

Han Zhen raised his head, his eyes were already full of tears, and he choked up and said, "Gongzi You, you have seen Gao Zhuo, and you can admire it so much!" Yesterday, Xiao Ke lied to Childe, so he wants to make amends to Childe! In fact, Xiao is not from Dengzhou, but from North Korea! ”

Only then did Zhu Youzhen suddenly realize that it was no wonder that Han Zhen acted mysteriously and was so concerned about Catherine as a teacher, it turned out that he was also a foreigner.

"I don't know why Brother Han came to Xi'an?" Zhu Youzhen asked.

Han Zhen replied: "Xiao Ke is indeed here to do business. But as a Fanbang person, I naturally have a lot of scruples. Especially although the Ming Dynasty has opened the sea ban, foreigners are still not allowed to do business in the mainland, Xiao Kecai does not dare to expose his identity, please forgive me! ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled: "Then why did Brother Han tell the younger brother? ”

"Because Xiao Ke is already convinced, You Gongzi is Xiao Ke's best business partner!" Han Zhen said excitedly, "You have a flexible mind, you can think what ordinary people can't think, and you have no prejudice against Fanbang people." If you are lucky enough to cooperate with Childe, Xiao Ke will be worth the trip! ”

Zhu Youzhen was also overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay! Brother Han is cautious and has strong strength, and the younger brother is willing to cooperate with you! But I don't know how Brother Han wants to cooperate with the law? ”

"Xiao Ke wants to invest in the Jingyang Business Gang, the son accounts for six, and the younger brother accounts for four." Han Zhen was straightforward.

Zhu Youzhen clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay! However, it is not enough to just invest in shares, and the younger brother feels that we still have more room for cooperation. ”

"Oh?" Han Zhen said happily, "I want to hear about it!" ”

"Opening an antique shop is just a stopgap measure." Zhu Youzhen said confidently, "The younger brother will inevitably do international trade in the future, since Brother Han is a North Korean, there must be some convenience in this regard, why don't we do it immediately!" ”

Han Zhen also said happily: "Xiao Ke has six merchant ships, and they are now doing shipping business between Phi Dao and Dengzhou. This time in Shaanxi, Xiao Ke is the largest distribution center of goods in the northwest of Xi'an, and the native products of the Western Regions, Mongolia and even Wusizang are all gathered here. Leather goods, saffron, and the like are extremely sought-after in North Korea. As long as the journey goes well, three or four times the profit is not a problem. But I don't know what goods You Gongzi wants to import from North Korea? ”

"Does North Korea produce grain?" Zhu Youzhen asked.

Han Zhen was stunned and said: "North Korea is rich in rice. However, the transportation of grain is difficult, and the sea route is even more dangerous and abnormal, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to make money. ”

"The little brother doesn't make money by this." Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly and said: "As long as Brother Han can come back from North Korea, how to divide the profits is easy to discuss!" ”

"Good! Since You Gongzi has decided it, it must be of great significance. Han Zhen also smiled, "Today is too hasty, it is better to invite You Gongzi to a banquet in Xi'an three days later, and officially join the shares at that time, what do you think?" ”

Zhu Youzhen agreed, and Han Zhen thanked him again, and then he left.

Zhu You looked at Han Zhen's distant back, and whispered to Lin Youkun: "Go check his details and see if it's really as he said!" ”
