Chapter 142: Straight to the point of self-introduction

"Being an official for thousands of miles is just for wealth." This is how the chief officials are, and the officials and servants below are even more obsessed with money. For these people, being a job is to make money. Making money is the most important thing besides life and death. For many people, it is even more serious than life and death. As long as you have money to make money, there is nothing that cannot be done.

Chang Kai began to be afraid of Zhu Da, and even was quite afraid of it, but after these three dealings, two were small things that were done by chance, and one was visiting the door, and the income was actually ten taels of silver. If it weren't for the rebellion of the Tartars, so many people were in a hurry to enter the city and could take the opportunity to make a fortune, knock bones and suck marrow in the yamen and pluck hair, how many ten taels of silver could be obtained in a year? Such a generous God of Wealth would naturally be willing to be close to serve.

If you are an ordinary rich boy, you still have no clue. After a few people in the yamen have a total of the methods, they can swallow the money directly. Leaving a life is considered compassion, and silencing the mouth is normal, but Zhu Da shows that he is a evil star, and he has the ability to kill people and is still free of water.

A person who is rich, a knife and can make people cheap, the only thing Chang Kai can do is bend down with a smile on his face, be obedient, if you have to make money, you have to do it as you don’t have to make money, and if you have to do it, there is a knife hanging in addition to money...

While Chang Kai invited Zhu Da into the door, he carefully observed that these few meetings were in a nervous or confused state, and he didn't have much attention at all. This time he finally had a calm mind.

When I first met, I thought it was a swordsman in the world, who was a swordsman who was licking blood on his head to do life business. But today I saw that the other party was enthusiastic and shrewd, but very similar to those rich businessmen. However, in my every move, in addition to the posture brought by military training, I also had a bit of reserve and literary spirit. This was like a scholar, and his expression contained a little confidence and reserve. Chang Kai had only seen this expression on the faces of the magistrate and the inspector.

People in the yamen are knowledgeable and deal with people every day. What this person does, what his background is, and even what his current situation is, can be judged clearly with a little thought. However, Chang Kai was confused about Zhu Da. His good eyesight, which was often praised by his colleagues in the past, is no longer useful today.

This time, the one who followed Zhu Da was not the silent and strong peer, but the young man who was a little older and had a little unsatisfied shoulders. He looked like a shop manager, which made Chang Kai even more confused about the purpose of the other party. He could only guess whether he wanted to open a dice in the city to sell a private prostitution nest.

"Why are you bringing something to the door again? Why are you doing so polite?" Chang Kai's wife also came out, complaining with a smile on her face, but her hands were not slow, so she took the thing over directly.

The gift I brought this time was a roll of cloth and a square of meat. The price was indeed not as high as the previous two times. However, they were all real things that could be eaten and used, not like fooling people. For Chang Kai's wife, the more people such as this, the better.

"The head of the family, if the Zhu family wants to do something, you have to do it, don't be vague!" After receiving the gift, Chang Kai's wife said a few words. She also understood many of the joints of the Chang family for so many years.

"What are you talking nonsense here? Why don't you make tea for the Zhu family brother?" Chang Kaihu shouted with a face. He dealt with others like this. He should not be vague about Zhu Da and others. He agreed to repent afterwards. He refused to accept the benefits of taking them. He could do it to others, so he was looking for death here.

The Chang's wife naturally couldn't think so deeply. After hearing the scolding, she said happily: "Let's boil water and serve you good tea!"

After being polite and attentive, he finally invited him into the main hall. Before Chang Kai could ask his daughter, her daughter ran out again and asked the young lady why she hadn't come. After hearing that she was not here, she looked disappointed and almost cried. Chang Kai was really amused and crying. It was still Zhu Da who promised that she could go to play with the young lady, and then she burst into tears and laughed.

"To be honest, Captain Chang said that I am the owner of Dachuanxing, and I also do the duck egg business in Baibao Village, east of Zhengjiaji." Before Chang Kai asked about his purpose, Zhu Da first introduced himself straight to the point.

When he first heard this, Chang Kai was stunned before he could react, and looked at Zhu Da with incredible eyes. It was not until his wife shouted at her children in the kitchen. After the voice came, her expression changed, and she turned into a mixture of awesomeness and incredibleness.

Chang Kai couldn't help but stand up, clasped his fists and said, "I never thought that the prodigy who turned stones into gold was yours. I'm so disrespectful."

There are very few people from Huairen County who have never heard of Dachuanxing and Hebian New Village. First, these two are in the county, second, these two are too legendary, and third, these two are too fertile.

What happened in this county is naturally the most clear about the people of this county. Although Hebian Xincun and Baibao Village are under the jurisdiction of Datong Zuowei, everyone has never been vague in this scope. Since the founding of Taizu, everyone's life has not changed much. It is said that the price of grain is much more expensive than decades ago, but no one can tell whether it is true or false. Other major events are nothing more than that of the Tartars. The rise of Hebian Xincun and Dachuan Tour is a new thing, an exciting new thing.

The people in the county looked down on the military households of the garrison. They thought they had changed their names to serfs and tenants, and they also felt that the garrison houses were poor places. As a result, such poor places had done a big business, and salted duck eggs were everywhere, but this small garrison house was a prosperous business.

It’s okay to have a salted duck egg alone, but what’s even more amazing is that it can connect the business brought by the duck egg. Not long after, people in the county town also ate braised chickens and ducks and used duck down pillows. Some people also raised chickens and ducks in the city and sold eggs to those who bought them on weekdays. At that time, chickens and ducks can be sold, and no matter how they are considered to be a profitable business.

As a yamen servant, Chang Kai is more sensitive to many changes in the market than others and has more sources of information than ordinary people. At first, news about Hebian Xincun and Dachuan Tour came. People in the yamen thought it was a city chat, but before they knew it, they found that there were more types of fur goods on the market and the prices were much cheaper. Other department stores also had similar trends. Only then did they realize that the two rumored places really brought prosperity and circulation to Zheng Jiaji and Huairen County.

As for the businessman, he was taught the heavenly books and treasures by the God of Wealth in his dream. The duck eggs and various specialties over there are different from other places, with absurd rumors such as delicious taste and superb quality, Chang Kai just doubts about it.

The officials and servants in Huairen County are most concerned about money. There is private salt in Dachuan's business, and the various specialties in Hebian New Village are popular in the world. Everyone can estimate how much input there is. Who wouldn't think about going up to eat a bite of such fat meat?

But the real mature people will not move. Just doing private salt business makes people feel afraid. Behind the private salt business are often gentry and powerful people, otherwise they are outlaws who go to single gangs, and the private salt in Datong is inseparable from the garrison and the garrison. Who dares to touch such a background?

But not everyone has this calmness. As the news of the new village in Hebang is spreading more and more widely, some people can't sit still, but when they try to do anything, they are bleeding from their heads and come back in a mess, and a few even disappear in such a way.

At this time, everyone found out the details. It turned out that Zheng inspector Zheng was involved in the business of Dachuanxing. There was a scholar in Hebian Xincun. Moreover, this scholar had a close relationship with a guerrilla. After such a backer was exposed, no one dared to touch him. Zheng inspector Zheng was the first in Huairen County. The scholar who had a close relationship with guerrillas knew about who he had been and what he had done back then.

Who would dare to touch such a backer and background? Everyone is envious of it. When they have free time, they go to the increasingly prosperous Zheng Family Club to have fun, and just talk a few words.

This time, the Tartars team was robbed and destroyed. Everyone was frightened and was looking after their own wealth. No one thought about Zhengjiaji and Hebian New Village, Datong Bian Town for more than 100 years, and there were many examples of word-of-mouth and personal experiences. No matter how prosperous the towns and places were, they were immediately destroyed after the military disaster, and nothing was left. Only those counties, cities, etc. had a long-term opportunity.

Regardless of being active and passive, Chang Kai has been instilled with a lot of news about Takawa Tour and Hebian New Village. Today, he suddenly found that the main owner was right in front of him. Of course, this "incredible" and "stern" are inevitable. But after the initial shock, Chang Kai felt that he should be the person in front of him, and only such a person can do such a big scene.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhu. I wonder how Dachuanyou and Hebianxincun are now?"

"All of them were destroyed, Zheng Jiaji was destroyed, and the two villages were also destroyed. We brothers went into the mountains to hunt and escaped."

After receiving the expected answer, Chang Kai sighed with emotion. Datong has been peaceful for more than ten years, making them not very accustomed to this kind of prosperity and destruction. If it were put in the past, they would not even sigh.

The Zheng family was destroyed, and the inspector Zheng must have finished. The scholar was in danger. Isn’t it that the current thought flashed through Chang Kai’s mind and disappeared immediately. For the sake of the whole family’s name, it’s better not to think too much about dangerous things.

Zhu Da said with a smile: "Any scene in the past was ruined by the Tartars. This time I said it was not to show off. It was just to say what I had done in the past. It would make Captain Chang trust more and would not think that I was tying people."

"Where did Mr. Zhu say that, why would Lao Chang feel that Mr. Zhu is rude? Just say anything, just say it." Chang Kai did not realize that he had already trusted Zhu Da.

"This time the Tartars were in rebellion, and the people and the caravans rushed to the city to take refuge. The yamen took the opportunity to scrape a lot of wealth, right?" Zhu Da's attitude was still gentle.
