Zhang Zhou was very confused after hearing this.
He has only been in business for a few days and has not made a penny back. His reputation has already spread. Even if someone really knew him before, why are they waiting to meet him in front of Qu Mingren's house? He
"The young master of your family is" Zhang Zhou understands that boys are easy to suffer outside and must learn to protect themselves.
The coachman said, "You have been to the rice bank driven by my young master before, so I have heard of you. If you come back late, the young master will definitely blame you, please."
< p>Zhang Zhouyi heard that he had been to Mihang, so he probably knew it. No wonder the other party came to see him.We also provide private transportation.
It is rare to ride in such a gorgeous carriage
After entering, the feeling is very different. Even when I was a young man, the carriages I used to travel were far inferior to this.
In the Ming Dynasty, "Those who are of rank three or above in Beijing can ride in a sedan chair."
It is also stipulated that "civil and military officials who should ride in a sedan chair should be rescued by four people. The five government officials are in charge of affairs and guard the inside and outside." , guards, dukes, marquises, uncles, governors, etc., regardless of age, are not allowed to ride in sedan chairs. Anyone who rides in a sedan chair in violation of the regulations or uses eight people without authorization will be informed. "
People in the Ming Dynasty are not qualified to ride in sedan chairs. Yes, carriages also have specifications. Zhang Zhou judged from the coachman that this "young master" should not be an official. He was probably a young master from a family with a title in Nanjing. This kind of carriage must also be the legitimate son of the current duke, marquis, etc. Only people can enjoy it, and people from other branches of the family are not qualified to enjoy it.
It’s comfortable.
The carriage stopped in front of a public waterside pavilion. There was a high platform next to the waterside pavilion from which you could overlook the scenery. You could see the clock tower, Nanjing's landmark building, in the distance.
Although the waterside pavilion has no walls and is public, it is a private park and ordinary people are not allowed to enter.
Zhang Zhou went up to the high platform under the guidance of the coachman, but there was a gauze curtain between the inside and outside. The wind blew the gauze curtain and made it look very ethereal. Two people could be vaguely seen inside, but they did not know who was underneath. Playing chess or drinking tea gives people a sense of mystery.
"Young Master, Mr. Zhang brings us here."
"Oh. Go down."
It was the voice of a man who sounded like he was no more than twenty years old. The room is very elegant.
He said again, "Master Zhang, please take a seat."
Zhang Zhou looked around and found that there was not even a chair. Where to sit and look inside, it seemed They all sit on the floor, but there are futon cushions inside, and there is not even a floor here. It is a cold ground, and you will definitely get sick if you sit like this.
Zhang Zhouyi touched it and found that he still had a booklet that he had given to Qu Mingren in his arms. It happened to be placed low on his buttocks and he sat on the spot.
The voice inside came: "I heard that Mr. Zhang has been borrowing grain from various places recently, and said that the price of grain in Nanjing will rise. I don't know why he made such a judgment."
Zhang Zhou didn't answer. Sitting cross-legged like this, only his buttocks were not cold, and his posture was inelegant. He put his hands on his neck and asked, "May I ask, which family in the Dudu Mansion is it from?"
"The Zhu family." The other party came up and gave a big name.
But Zhang Zhou disagreed with "Chengguo Gongfu"
The other party asked curiously, "How do you know?"
Zhang Zhouxin said, you all reported that your family name is Zhu. Okay, is there any noble family in Nanjing whose surname is Zhu? You won’t let me think you belong to any royal family, right?
"Which young master is that from Chengguo Gongfu?" Zhang Zhou continued Get to the bottom of it.
The other party said, "On the second line, there is an elder brother above."
"Oh."
Currently Duke Cheng is Zhu Fu.
Zhu Fu was heir to the throne in the ninth year of Hongzhi, and is not currently serving in Nanjing. As we all know, the garrison positions in Nanjing have always been between Wei Guogong, the old Xu family, and Cheng Guogong, the old Zhu family. It is the Duke of Wei, Xu Yan.
Zhu Fu's two sons, Zhu Lin and Zhu Feng, were of the same age. Later, Zhu Lin inherited the position of Duke Cheng during the Jiajing period, but died without any descendants, and it was the second son, Zhu Feng, who succeeded him.
According to the people inside, he should be Zhu Fu’s second son, Zhu Feng.
Generally speaking, children from the Duke's family must be self-reliant, especially those who cannot ascend the title. After all, only one person in the past can ascend the title. It has been passed down for several generations. Just one branch of Duke Cheng is enough. It has blossomed everywhere in Nanjing.
Zhang Zhoudeng immediately developed some favorable impressions of this person.
At least this kid is quite honest when he talks, and he doesn’t seem to have much of the dandyism of a child from the Xungui family. In this case, if you want to know something, you can tell him frankly. Anyway, what he predicted Things will be fulfilled soon.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Your Majesty asked me for my judgment on the price of grain in Nanjing. I asked someone to calculate it. They said that there will definitely be disasters in the Huanghuai River this year, and there will be wind disasters in the southwest. After a series of disasters, the price of food in Nanjing will be The price of food will rise two or three times, but in a few months, the price of food will stabilize."
"Pa"
The person inside suddenly slapped the table. He seemed very excited and said, "I have the same idea as you. Will the weather be good every year in the Ming Dynasty? This year I have been waiting for the rivers and the Yellow River to flood, and for the price of grain to rise, so that I can make a fortune from the grain I harvested at the beginning of the year." "
Zhang Zhouyi heard that he is very compatible with me. They are both opportunists.
Waiting for the country to make a fortune.
But I came here to pick up money after knowing the history. What are you gambling for? Now the gamblers have left, and you are still holding grain in your hands and cannot make money. Find comfort here.
You never thought that I might just be lying to you
"Hula"
The people inside suddenly stood up and walked out. He opened the gauze curtain so that Zhang Zhou could see the two people inside. One was Zhu Feng. She was really delicate and dignified with delicate features. Those who didn't know better thought she was a big girl, while the other was just a big girl.
Zhang Zhou had a question in his mind.
Are you two sisters?
Zhang Zhou got up from the ground and Zhu Feng came over.He grabbed Zhang Zhou's arm and said, "Mr. Zhang, you said someone did the calculation for you. Which expert did it for you? I also want to find him to figure it out."
Zhang Zhou's eyes were not on Zhu Zhu. On Feng's body, he was looking at the woman who was still sitting upright inside.
The woman turned her head directly to the side by the window, not shying away from looking at Zhang Zhou.
Zhang Zhou suddenly thought of the word "snow-skinned". It is really white. They say that whiteness covers three ugliness, if you are a beautiful woman
Zhu Feng also noticed Zhang Zhou's gaze and introduced him with a smile, "My wife."
Zhang Zhou was instantly disappointed.
Such a beautiful woman, it turns out she is your mother-in-law, she is like a flower stuck on top of another flower
Zhang Zhou really wanted to say, you two don’t look like a couple.
"Your Excellency, young master, please respect yourself." Zhang Zhou quickly shook off the other party's hand.
Zhu Feng said, "Don't be so outspoken. Just call me Mr. Zhu."
Zhang Zhou felt awkward when facing such a strange person, and said with emotion, "Give it to me." The person who got the news was just a wandering Taoist. Seeing that my family was in decline, he asked me to do some rice business."
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "I heard, you use your father-in-law to give you. I borrowed more than 200 shi from outside. I have never seen you doing business like this.”
“Uh” Zhang Zhou was confused, how could you do this to me? Things are so clear
Also, now I am still thinking about posting famous posts to the outside world to accumulate fame for myself. It turns out that I am already so famous in the city
Zhu Feng said, "Jiang's wine It has been supplied to various lords in Nanjing. I heard from the Jiang family that people outside are talking about you now, saying that you are a tribute student, but you are doing business regardless of worldly standards. They say that you do not know how to advance or retreat, and they also say that you are a prodigal son. I think you are very knowledgeable. The loss of your family fortune may have been due to bad luck. You should make a comeback soon."
Damn it.
It turns out that there are rumors about me outside. They are not a good reputation. They are treating me as a joke.
Good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
But
This second son of Cheng Guogong, do you think so highly of me? Even though you look like this, you are not good at doing business. This is called sympathy for each other
This can’t be called a hero cherishing a hero, should it be called a bear cherishing a bear
But I have to say that you, a courtesy corporal, have a very high ability to compliment people.
Zhang Zhougong cupped his hands and said, "Young Master, I have told you everything I know. Can you please go?"
"Oh, don't worry, I have another copy here. Gift." Zhu Feng turned and walked behind the gauze tent.
Zhang Zhouyi felt a little relieved after listening to it.
Call me here for questioning. The special car should only pick up and not deliver. I have to walk across most of the city on my own two legs when I get back. But if you give me some gifts, I will feel more balanced.
But after seeing the famous assassination handed over by Zhu Feng, ZhangThe expectant look on Zhou's face disappeared.
As expected
They are like birds of a feather.
I was handing out business cards at Laoqu’s house, and you gave me a famous tattoo. It’s just a gold-gilded famous tattoo. It looks like it was designed by a professional. It seems to be time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive, but I can’t get it. Go out and sell it for cash.
Is there any essential difference between this and my shoddy business card?
"If you have any questions, come to me and let's discuss the business again. If this rice and grain business makes a lot of money, I will also I will cooperate with you again. It is rare to meet someone who is so good at doing business. I am so happy. I should have a few more drinks when I go back. Tong'er, don't you think so?"
The woman inside looked at Zhu Feng. Rolled his eyes.
Not only are you bringing your own woman out to meet a strange man, but you are also saying her maiden name in front of outsiders. You are so heartless. Please remember to bookmark, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
