Chapter five hundred and fifty third seemingly unintentional but tempted
Just now, Yu Zhiyuan laughed at himself, and Zhao Jin followed this sentence and joked. Yu Zhiyuan was stunned and then laughed, shaking his head while laughing, with a little desolate expression. No matter what, this matter has not been done, and it makes people feel grudges in their hearts. In the future, it may be troublesome.
Before he turned around, Zhao Jin smiled and said with a smile: "I like the Japanese sword and the musket, but my brothers and I don't like the Xuwen Huatou. This short musket with treasures is of no interest. Next time, this Western musket will come with a few big ones, both new and old. If you spend too much money, I can buy it."
Yu Zhiyuan's eyes lit up. He said he wanted to come again. From the standpoint of a businessman, there are indeed business opportunities in Xuzhou. The Yu family has cotton cloth and sand ship fleet to transport and sell goods. It complements the big market in Hejiazhuang. As long as you operate it carefully, you will not worry about not getting rich. However, Yu Zhiyuan had no hope of whether he could continue to see Zhao Jin and the Yiyu around him. This time he met, he was considered a mess. The other party was already very bad, and it was impossible to go further.
Now Yu Zhiyuan was already regretful. He originally wanted to find someone to take revenge and vent his anger, but after coming to Hejiazhuang, what he saw and heard made him feel fresh, while others made him feel shocked. The patrol company that occasionally showed his gloriousness and rigor that he had never seen before, which made Yu Zhiyuan think more.
But because he couldn't control his emotions, he felt a little reserved and down-looking, and he ended up in an indescribable way. Even though everyone was kind on the surface, Yu Zhiyuan knew that his face had been lost, so he didn't want to get the little light of Zhao's martial arts.
But in the end, Zhao Jin's words rekindled Yu Zhiyuan's hope. This was the only thing he did right after coming to Xuzhou. He considered that Zhaoziying was full of warriors, and both Japanese swords and muskets were used to his preferences. At that time, he was thinking about whether to send less firearms, but he didn't expect that the short musket seemed to have chosen the right one.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to deal with Folang Jiren at the next home. This is very easy. Even if Songjiang Prefecture cannot be found for a while, you can go to Fujian and Guangdong to find it. Zhao Baozheng will definitely be satisfied." Yu Zhiyuan said hurriedly. He felt that after he said this, Zhao Jin's smile became more kinder.
It was Ruhui who sent the person out. Outside the door, Yu Zhiyuan took out a piece of white mutton fat that was about an inch inch from his purse and handed it to Ruhui with a smile, but Ruhui refused. He just politely reminded him: "Since my master has said everything, please don't worry Mr. Yu to search carefully, and there will be rewards."
Everyone in Zhao's camp knew that Zhao Jin was inexplicably enthusiastic about firearms. This time, Zhao Jin's attitude of studying the short musket reminded people of the way he looked when he saw the Xu family bird gun on the Yellow River that day. Ru Hui had to ask Yu Zhiyuan for a few words.
"Thank you, General Manager Cao, for your advice, I will be careful." Yu Zhiyuan said with a smile, but he was thinking in his heart that Zhao Baozheng was so interested in Western firearms. In addition to the musket, should he get a cannon over, but this is too allergic
Yu Zhiyuan and the butler left together, but Zhao Jin and his friends did not disperse and were busy with their own affairs. What Mr. Yu said and his performance after meeting were very interesting. After Mr. Yu left, everyone was interested in talking.
"If the fleet at home is burned in front of you and threatened to kill the whole family, no matter how smart and calm you are on weekdays, you may not be able to hold back. Once you are angry, you will lose your limits when you speak and do things." Liu Yong said.
Zhao Jin nodded and said with a smile: "After all, I am young, I am young and energetic. I think I am smarter than others, and then the chaos at home made my family lose my limits, so I made such a joke, thinking that what is our Zhao Ying? I will cross the river and kill you in a few words?"
"Brother, then Mr. Yu is how old is he older than us?" Wang Zhaojing teased.
"How can a rich young man compete with our brothers? How many storms and waves we have experienced and many life-and-death battles we have experienced, he can't compare to." Zhao Jin said calmly.
Everyone agreed with what Zhao Jin said, and Chen Huang just asked briefly: "What are you going to do with this person?"
When the room was quiet, they all looked at Zhao Jin. The two things Yu Zhiyuan said were too big, so everyone knew Zhao Jin. He did not completely reject what Yu Zhiyuan said. With Zhao Jin's cunning and planning, there must be other arrangements. We have been together for so many years and are very familiar with each other's style of doing things.
Zhao Jin pondered for a while and said, "First find out his background. The matter we are talking about opening a store can be used on this person. After finding out the details, we will talk about other things."
The friends nodded. Everyone understood what they were going to do. This was also a tacit understanding. Zhao Jin stood up and took a few steps, and said in a deep voice: "We have agreed to what Wang Dagang is. We go to Qingjiangpu, of course, not just for him to uphold justice. Qingjiangpu is the hub of the world's canal transportation. The water transportation change to the sea that Yu Zhiyuan said must have a lot to do with all aspects of Qingjiangpu. This overall situation is inconsistent."
Zhao Jin said this, his voice slightly increased: "We cannot do it now, but it does not mean that we cannot do it in the future. Since it is related, it should be prepared."
Ruhui has returned to the hall and smiled after hearing Zhao Jin's words: "The master has great ambitions, but he has such a certainty in the general trend. This is really amazing and is better than others."
"Speak less flattery, and arrange for people to follow Yu Zhiyuan in secret and find out carefully." Zhao Jin smiled and gave the order.
The so-called open investigation is Wang Zhaojing and Ruhui, and in secret, it is naturally Liu Yong's inner guard.
The visitors before the New Year were Wang Dagang and Yu Zhiyuan. The arrival of these two people made Zhao Ziying make corresponding adjustments and reactions. As for the others, they were the politeness of the visit.
Wang Dagang was arranged to go to the Xueding Team, and there were few confidential matters involved. When learning from the Xueding Team, he could adapt to the rules and methods of Zhaoziying as soon as possible. Then, when Zhao Jin needed it, he could also go to answer questions nearby, so that Zhao Jin and the others could understand Qingjiangpu more clearly.
According to the rewards of the people who followed Wang Dagang, it was said that Wang Dagang was very anxious at the Ding team and felt that he was here to play with the children. But after staying for a few days, he calmed down and learned things. It was obvious that he was a very motivated person.
This ambitious evaluation can also be said to be ambitious, which is appropriate. Wang Dagang came out to organize retail drivers, which shows that he still had some intentions and was unwilling to make a living by making a living with food and clothing.
Wang Dagang stayed here, and all the eye-ear spies sent to Qingjiangpu also set off. There was no talk of New Year here. Although they could not stay in Xuzhou for New Year, everyone was very excited. In the Zhaoziying system, everyone was not worried about not rewarding their contributions, but about not having the opportunity to make contributions.
Previously, the Zhaoziying had already been in a state of success, and everyone was not willing to be content with the status quo, but there was no way to change it. But now everyone is excited. The Zhaoziyingying had to attack one of the richest and most prosperous places in Jiangbei, or one of the richest and most prosperous places in the world. In such a place, there must be a lot of trouble and more contributions.
However, the people sent out were all the most trusted people in Zhaoziying. Even those who had servants in the inner guard were their own people. This part was suddenly withdrawn 70%, leaving Liu Yong and Lei Cai unavailable for a while. There was not so much explanation on the surface. It was just that Yunshanxing and Sun's warehouse were going to open a semicolon there.
On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Jin and his friends gathered. On New Year's Eve, everyone did not go home for the New Year, but inspected various camps in Zhaoziying. Dong Bingfeng and Jixiang also divided their troops. One went to the Zhuangzi at the junction of Suzhou and Xuzhou, and the other went to Kongjiazhuang, where there were Zhaoziying's companies stationed, and Shi Manqiang went to several refugee manors. Everyone had a consensus to let Zhao Jin stay at home for the New Year.
"It's so good when I was a child. I asked questions all day long. It's not until twenty, so I'm just talking." Zhao's family reunited for the New Year. Looking at Zhao Jin's appearance, He Cuihua couldn't help but complain. When Zhao Zhentang heard this, he would definitely scold him, saying that it was the child who did serious business again. You, a woman, would have talked so much. Over the years, He Cuihua had known this a long time ago, so this time he complained to Xu Zhenzhen.
The Zhao family and the Xu family are not short of money, and there will be no disputes between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law because of housework, so there will be no conflicts. You can also chat in private.
Xu Zhenzhen's attitude towards Zhao Jin's silence was another: "If your husband likes this, why not call the craftsmen of the Xu family to come and study the imitation?"
When Zhao Jin was free, he always looked at the short musket over and over. He also knew about the obsession with firearms. Xu Zhenzhen also knew about the number of coal and iron manufacturing and craftsmen in the Xu family, it was very simple to build a few muskets. At first, Xu Zhenzhen thought Zhao Jin was unwilling to abuse manpower, but later she found out that it was not. Zhao Jin was just focusing on research and hobbies.
However, I have to say what I should say, and Xu Zhenzhen can also see that Zhao Jin attaches great importance to this short musket with a strange shape that is inlaid with gems.
"No hurry. I thought I had to explore it myself, but I didn't expect someone to send a template. It was not enough. I had to see the completely correct regulations before I started." Zhao Jin answered this. Xu Zhenzhen was confused, but using craftsmen to build weapons was not worth considering. I ignored it after asking.
When it comes to Zhao Jin's short musket research, it is not only his mother and wife who express their opinions, but his father Zhao Zhentang was also quite unhappy when he saw it.
"What a trick to make these flowers? Didn't your second uncle tell you that those who hold firearms in the government army are cowards.
