At night, the study room "Dongpo Zhai" of the old lady of the Lu family in Jiangning was brightly lit.
The old man stays at the yamen on weekdays, and the elderly can't take care of the family affairs at all. In normal times, he can't go back to Jiangning several times a month, but for a while, he comes back every day.
The old lady is working hard at home, and the housekeeper Hong Quan is busy. Hong Quan, who is already old and weak, looks even more rickety and old these few days.
"Grandma, the Nanfu Army is down!" Hong Quan crouched, his shadow stretched out, standing in Lu Shanchang's study like a ghost.
Lu Shanchang was lying on a chair with his eyes closed and rested. When he heard these words, his eyes opened suddenly, and his eyes flickered, and he suddenly stood up and said, "What? Really down the mountain? This...how is this done? Arrived?"
Hong Quan bowed his head and said: "Our people don’t know the details, but one thing is certain, that is, Brother Zheng played a key role in it. Countless things can prove that Nie Yong is obedient to Brother Zheng, and even the whole Liuhe’s The thing, behind the scenes is Brother Zheng planning a plan..."
"Huh..." Lu Shan let out a long sigh, and said, "Now things are getting more and more interesting. We are keeping a close eye on Lu Zheng's various things, but the Gu family may not be able to understand the whole story.
Hehe, the Gu family is the No. 1 giant in Jiangnan, how should they deal with the current situation in Liuhe this time? Once the Nanfu Army came down the mountain, I guess Old Man Gu could not sit still! "
Hong Quandao: "At present, two battalions have arrived at Dongmen Wharf. Temporary camps have been set up in the area. The Dongmen Wharf is where there are 10,000 more people. It can be said that it is very lively. The price of the shop was pushed up again.
If the five camps go down the mountain, there will be more than 30,000 people, and Shanxi Bridge will definitely surpass Qikong Bridge and become the most prosperous place in Liuhe! "
Hong Quan is in charge of the house and is a businessman in his bones, so he pays more attention to the affairs of the businessman. He controls the biggest secret power of the Lu Family, and a large part of this secret power is now used to master Lu Zheng's whereabouts.
Therefore, Lu Zheng did everything in Liuhe, and Hong basically mastered everything. In his eyes, Lu Zheng did the most beautiful job of replacing the eighteen shops on Qikong Bridge with the eighteen shops on the Shanshan Bridge. Beginning with Lu Zheng’s large-scale purchase of land at Dongmen Wharf, he took advantage of Wuying’s downhill incident to abruptly drive up the land near Dongmen Wharf. The saline-alkali land that no one was willing to buy before became incense overnight. It's bun.
As far as the current situation is concerned, as long as Lu Zheng is willing, he can immediately make a lot of money by selling a large area of land near the Shanshan Bridge. In this process, Lu Zheng did not pay a single cost, it was nothing. White wolf with empty gloves.
"The second child gave birth to a good son, hehe, if he could be as smart as his brother, why would the Lu family be in the same situation as it is today?" Lu Shan said.
Hong Quandao: "Old lady, in fact, Brother Zheng's deliberate estrangement from the Lu family should be quite meaningful. In today's situation, the Jiangnan power has lost power. If Brother Zheng returns to the Lu family, first of all, the identity of the Lu family will be his huge identity. Bondage.
And now it is rumored that he was not tolerated by his aunt and was forced to leave the Lu family, which is a good thing for him. In addition, Nie Yong's identity is well known all over the world, and he is Dai Gao's mortal enemy.
Brother Zheng is a student of Nie Yong. He and Dai are born intolerant. If he enters Beijing in this capacity, his background in Jiangnan power will be even weaker. With his talents, he will definitely achieve something in the future. ..."
Lu Shanchang nodded lightly and said, "As long as Lu Zheng is successful, he will not be able to get rid of his status as a child of the Lu family. The Lu family is not afraid that he will fly high. The higher he flies, the more beneficial it will be to the family, right? Such?"
"What the old lady said is more straightforward and understandable than what the old slave said. But..."
Lu Shanchang frowned slightly and said, "But what? Just say anything, don't hesitate!"
Hongquan lowered his head and said: "I think of the second master, he still wants to call Brother Zheng back. Yesterday he sent Ximen Ye to Liuhe. I guessed it was to test Nie Yong's attitude. Old lady..."
"Idiot!" Lu Shanchang said angrily. He threw the teacup in his hand to the ground fiercely: "This idiot, it's **** it! Does his mind think I don't understand? I feel like I'm wronged when I'm in the Secretary of General Administration, thinking about it. It can make up for the real shortage! He doesn't take a **** on himself, but his bowl of water is still shallow!"
Hong Quan took a step back and lowered his voice: "Master, it's actually not difficult for the second master to make up for the shortcomings. Why do you always keep your mouth open, Grandpa?"
"What do you know? The situation in Jiangnan is very subtle now. Look at which family of people, who is really lacking? Let me tell you this. The eyes of those censors are always fixed on us. Family.
If it fills the real gap, it will inevitably be reviewed by the censors to make a contribution. Otherwise, it will be ineffective. What is the opinion of the Jiangnan magnate in Jiangnan?
I am a knife and I am a fish. This is the situation in Jiangnan. If not, why did the four Jiangnan people fall to this point? "
Lu Shan changed the conversation and said, "You warn your second child and tell him not to act rashly, otherwise I will let him stay in the Department of General Affairs, just go home and think about it behind closed doors!"
"In addition, pay close attention to the movement of Gu's family, Liuhe is making waves, let's watch the tiger fight across the river!"
...
Lu Shanchang watched the tiger fight across the river, but the Gu family was really a little flustered.
After Gu's family Gu Tianyang heard about the Nanfu army's going down the mountain, he urgently called Gu Shengjiang and Gu Shenghai over, and the father and son conspired overnight.
Gu Shengjiang was already panicked. He said, "Father, this thing is not going to work. This Nie Yong is going to be a big deal! I think we should find a way to move him. If he continues to stay in Liuhe, we are in Liuhe. The power has to be uprooted!"
Gu Shenghai smiled coldly and said: "Brother, Nie Yong is just a small character. It is easy to move a small county magistrate with our Gu family's influence in the south of the Yangtze River, but as long as Zhan Tianqi is still there, one Nie Yong is gone, and then there will be Zhang Yong. , Liu Yong, how many people can we change?"
"Fourth, what do you mean? Isn't that cool? Do you feel that you don't care about Liuhe, so you think it has nothing to do with you?" Gu Shengjiang said.
"Big brother, don't say that, I'm here to help you today! He San, a minion, has been spoiled all these years, and he has been mad at Liuhe. If it weren't for him to stab the basket, Nie Yong would have done this kind of salary draw. thing?
Rabbits will bite people if they are anxious these years. What's more, Nie Yong is still a county magistrate with a seven-grade black hat on his head? He San, a minion, kept saying nothing to Nie Yongshenglu.
Okay, he won't give Nie Yongsheng the way, Nie Yong now has a backhand blow, everyone has no chance of life! "
Gu Shenghai paused and said, "He San has no way of life. He asked for hardship. There is no regret. But the Nanfu Army went down the mountain. Once they occupied the Dongmen Wharf, the entire river stretched for dozens of kilometers. Under their control, what should I do with my family’s cargo for these years?"
Gu Shengjiang said, "Fourth old, you should be less alarmist. You were the one who said you wouldn't give Nie Yonghuo. If you stabbed you, you would blame the minion. Is this your master?
The Nanfu Army is the army of the imperial court. Their supplies are in our hands. I don't believe that they dare to **** them. They are really going to tear their faces. This is going to the capital and it is not good for everyone. "
Gu Shenghai said: "Brother, do they need to grab it? They only need to set up a few cards on the official road, and let the goods passing through the Dongmen Wharf pay more, and our River Valley Wharf will be abandoned.
All the goods have gone from the Dongmen Wharf. As long as they manage the Dongmen Wharf well, isn't it a waste of money to let them earn? Can we do anything about this matter if we still don't give up the truth? "
When Gu Shenghai said this, Gu Shengjiang was speechless.
The old man Gu Tianyang kept silent, and the brothers pinched, Gu Shenghai had the upper hand. After deciding the victory or defeat, they were all silent, waiting for the old man to make a decision!
"Do you know anything lately? Lu Qian of the Lu family has a son. A few days ago, there was a big limelight on the Qinhuai River, and the whole Jinling knew about this! There is a Liner in the Lu family!" Gu Tian said. .
"Uh..." Gu Shengjiang and Gu Shenghai looked at each other, wondering why the old man suddenly came up with this topic, everyone was talking about Liuhe.
Gu Tianyang snorted and said, "I know your virtues, and my eyes only know about staring at those sesame mung beans, but I don't know what is really important."
"Father, I know this Lu Zheng is indeed a talent, and this son is now in Liuhe, and Liuhe County magistrate Nie Yong is his teacher.
It is said that this son is amazingly talented, not only able to learn poetry and singing, but also very good at studying the world. Nie Yong's various methods in Liuhe may have this son's shadow behind it! "Gu Shenghaidao.
"Nonsense, I still don't know how many talents Lu Qian has? The father is very talented. He is a half bucket of water. What good son can he give birth to?
It is possible to say that this child is a bit anxious. It is pure nonsense to say that he can help Nie Yong to make suggestions. He is still a sucker who has the ability to let the Nanfu army go down the mountain? "Gu Shengjiang Weng said, disapproving of Gu Shenghai's words.
Gu Tianyang sighed softly, and said, "Boss, you can put things aside for Liuhe, and leave it to the fourth to take care of it for the time being. You've been living and looking back over the years. Is it at home? If you care about things too much, you don’t care about anything, you are completely numb?"
Gu Shengjiang's face changed drastically, his legs softened and he knelt on the ground, and said in a panic: "Father, boy...baby is wrong!"
"Where did you go wrong?"
Gu Shengjiang was speechless and didn't know where he was wrong. He just said a few words about Lu Zheng, why was he wrong? Why did you make the old man so dissatisfied?
