Chapter 246： ready to go

"Jiang Aiqing, since Ji Zhongcai knew the law and violated the law, the evidence is conclusive, and he committed the crime of deceiving the king and beheading him. So now, the position of Zhoushan prefect is vacant, Aiqing, you have been traveling for half a year, what is in your heart? A candidate to fill this vacancy?" the emperor asked.

Generally speaking, the emperor rarely asked Jiang Zhennan about this political matter.

But this time, Jiang Zhennan's involvement in Ji Zhongcai's affairs must have his purpose, so the emperor will ask Jiang Zhennan.

He is also not afraid that Jiang Zhennan will take this opportunity to install his own gestures. For his emperor, anyone can betray him as an emperor, including his concubines, princes and grandsons, only Jiang Zhennan will not.

He believed very much in Jiang Zhennan's loyalty to his emperor.

Therefore, he was so relieved to let Jiang Zhennan meddle in something secretly.

Jiang Zhennan lowered his head slightly, thought about it, and said, "Your Majesty, when I passed through Anding County, I found that Zhou Changsheng, the magistrate of Anding County, is a good official who is diligent in government and loves the people, and is honest and clean."

Speaking of this, Jiang Zhennan did not go on, the emperor must also know what Jiang Zhennan meant.

After listening to the emperor, he frowned, thought deeply for a moment, and said with some doubts, "Zhou Changsheng? Zhou family?"

If it is the Zhou family, he must use his life with caution.

This week's family is the third prince's foreign family, and it has great power and has long stood on the third prince's side.

Jiang Zhennan replied, "Your Majesty, although this Zhou Changsheng belongs to the Zhou family, the Zhou family seems to have forgotten that there is such a person in the Zhou family."

This is to tell the emperor that Zhou Changsheng has been abandoned by the Zhou family.

The emperor said, "But, he is still the Zhou family."

Jiang Zhennan suddenly knelt down and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, please look at this!"

With that said, Jiang Zhennan took out a letter from his arms and sent it to the emperor.

After the emperor took the letter, he opened it, looked at it, and said, "Aiqing, you better get up and talk."

Jiang Zhennan replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Holding the letter, the emperor asked with a serious and dignified expression, "Is what the letter says true?"

Jiang Zhennan nodded and said, "Go back to the emperor, it's true!"

After thinking for a while, the emperor said, "That's fine, just do as you said! However," the emperor said with some concern, "if Zhou Changsheng is reused, then the Zhou family will definitely not let Zhou go. Father and son, will they always insist on this?" This means that Zhou Changsheng and his son returned to the Zhou family.

With Zhou Changsheng, no matter how the Zhou family gave up the Zhou family and their son five years ago, but once they got into the emperor's eyes, how could the Zhou family give up such useful two pieces?

If the Zhou family was persuaded and returned to the Zhou family, wouldn't he just increase the power of the Zhou family by enabling Zhou Changsheng?

Jiang Zhennan said, "Your Majesty, as long as you regard Zhou Changsheng as your own person, then Zhou Changsheng and his son are the forces to win over everyone, especially the Zhou family, they think it is a bargaining chip. However, Your Majesty, since Zhou Changsheng and his son have already made up their minds Determined to start another stove, it will not be easily persuaded."

Jiang Zhennan opened up about the Zhou family's father and son's affairs, in order to open a way for the Zhou family's father and son.

Since Lin Yuelan has decided to "support" the Zhou family and his son, then the Zhou family and his son will definitely be Lin Yuelan's backstage in the future.

Another layer of secret meaning is that the emperor is Lin Yuelan's biggest backstage.

At that time, after Lin Yuelan came to the capital, those forces that wanted to suppress her would definitely need to consider three things.

The emperor nodded and said, "Since Aiqing strongly recommends it, then I will order Zhou Changsheng to go to Zhoushan City immediately and assume the post of prefect!"

...

The moment Zhou Changsheng received the imperial decree from his father-in-law, he was extremely happy, excited, surprised, and at the same time a little worried and apprehensive.

"Congratulations, Lord Zhou, congratulations to Lord Zhou!" The father-in-law holding the whisk said to Zhou Changsheng with a smile on his face, "From tomorrow onwards, you will be the prefect of Zhoushan!"

"Thank you father-in-law!" Zhou Changsheng responded politely, "It's not a trivial thing to respect!" He took a tray containing a few ingots of silver from his hand and placed it in front of his father-in-law, and continued, "My father-in-law and the horses and horses are exhausted. , these little things, take it to drink and drink to relieve fatigue!"

The father-in-law did not take the money politely, and said to Zhou Changsheng, "Thank you, Lord Zhou!"

After sending these father-in-law guards out, Zhou Changsheng walked into the mansion, and Lin Yuelan walked out and said to Zhou Changsheng with a smile, "Congratulations, sir!"

Zhou Changsheng frowned, his eyes were sharp, and he asked Lin Yuelan with a serious and puzzled expression, "Miss Lin, what the **** is going on?"

He was questioning Lin Yuelan, how could he jump directly from a seventh-rank magistrate to a fifth-rank prefect, this promotion was so fast, it was like a dream.

He knew that Lin Yuelan deserved the credit for this.

However, he obviously told his son that he just wanted to be a sidekick, but in this state, can he escape?

The smile on Lin Yuelan's face was indifferent and casual, and she said very naturally, "Master Zhou, what are you worried about? I Lin Yuelan said that to support you, you must do what you say."

Zhou Changsheng's frowning brows did not loosen, and he continued to ask, "Then what? How did you do it?"

Lin Yuelan replied, "It's very simple! I will have someone bring the criminal evidence of Ji Zhongcai, the former prefect of Zhoushan, to the capital and send it to the minister of punishment, plus your son Zhou Wencai found Jiang Zhennan, the general of the township, and then Jiang Zhennan intervened. , it's easy for Ji Zhong to fall."

At this point, Lin Yuelan didn't have any scruples about telling Zhou Changsheng about the plan.

"After Ji Zhongcai fell, the position of Zhoushan prefect became vacant. I once wrote a letter to General Zhenguo and asked your son to bring it to him. In the letter, I instructed Uncle Mask how to do it, and then it became like this. already."

Zhou Changsheng asked, "Jiang Zhennan is the one who came with you before, isn't he?"

Although they already knew Jiang Zhennan's identity, they didn't stab at it after all, so he still wanted to confirm it.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, "Yes."

Hearing Lin Yuelan's answer, at this time, Zhou Changsheng knew that he had to follow their arrangement.

Because, even if it's not for himself, it has to be for his son.

Anyway, it was impossible for the Zhou family to let them go, so he could only go all the way to protect his children and grandchildren.

Zhou Changsheng held the imperial edict and asked solemnly, "Then what should I do next?"

Since he is still in the game, he can only follow the chess path.

Lin Yuelan smiled and said, "Sir, you don't have to do anything at the moment, just clean up and be a prefect of Zhoushan."

Zhou Changsheng immediately asked, "What about you?"

Lin Yuelan said, "As for me, of course I will follow you, Lord Zhou!"

Zhou Changsheng looked at Lin Yuelan with puzzled eyes.

...

Come to the restaurant, Zhang Yuanbin said to Lin Yuelan, "Master, Lord Zhou is going to take office in Zhoushan City, then the magistrate of our county..."

Before, their restaurant had a close relationship with the Zhou family, and people in Anding County did not dare to come to make trouble.

But now that Zhou Changsheng has been transferred, and he doesn't know what the new magistrate will be like, he is worried that if the magistrate is not good, then the many benefits you have come to my restaurant may be targeted. On, this is a big disadvantage for them.

Lin Yuelan shook her head and said, "Don't worry, no matter what kind of person this county magistrate is, he doesn't dare to do anything to our restaurant? Have you forgotten that Lord Zhou has been promoted and is the prefect of Anding County. , Any county magistrate who is smart will not oppose our restaurant."

Zhang Yuanbin froze, he patted the back of his head and said with a smile, "It's the subordinate who wants to be left."

Lin Yuelan said to Zhang Yuanbin, "Have you trained all the people you trained some time ago?"

"Okay! Three boys and three girls!" Zhang Yuanbin said, "They are all people without a family." Therefore, there is nothing to worry about in Anding County.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, "Well, let them pack up and go to Zhoushan City!"

"Yes, master!"

In Zhoushan City, a house.

Master Hu asked Lin Jinmei and said, "Miss Lin, when will the owner arrive at Zhoushan City?"

Lin Jinmei held the booklet and seemed to be doing some statistics. When she heard Master Hu's question, she said, "Master will be in Zhoushan in three days!"

As soon as Master Hu heard that three days later, Lin Yuelan went to Zhoushan, and he said impatiently, "Has the owner's place been arranged?"

"Well, in Fuhua Garden on East Street!" Lin Jinmei replied.

"East Street, Fuhua Garden!" Master Hu said in surprise, "It's a wealthy area over there, and the houses there are not so expensive!"

Lin Jinmei raised her head and said lightly, "It's not very expensive. According to the master's request, I spent 50,000 taels to buy a three-in, three-out building in the big yard."

Compared with mountain villages, this Zhoushan house must be sky-high.

Lin Yuelan built a yard with three entrances and three exits in Linjia Village, and it cost less than 10,000 taels. However, it would cost 50,000 taels to buy a second-hand house in Zhoushan City. You can see the gap between the city and the mountains.

Master Hu said even more surprised, "It's so expensive!" His eyes were full of distress.

It's not easy to make money. Lin Yuelan spent 50,000 taels in this shot.

Lin Jinmei said, "Master, she does whatever she wants, but in terms of accommodation, she has requirements, it must be bright and spacious, and people live comfortably, so I looked around and found such a place in Fuhua Garden. A house that meets the master's requirements will of course be bought."

Hearing what Lin Jinmei said, Master Hu wondered whether he was lamenting the magic of fate or the tricks of fate.

Half a year ago, Lin Yuelan was a poor child who only lived in a small thatched hut, but in just half a year, she built a house with three entrances and three exits, and bought another one in Zhoushan City.

Master Hu nodded and said, "Have you bought everything you want to buy, such as furniture?"

Lin Jinmei said, "Well, Boss Lin from the wood workshop sent some new furniture over here." The Boss Lin she mentioned was actually Lin Shuangju, her eldest brother who also worked for Lin Yuelan.

It's just this secret, other than the four brothers and sisters and Lin Yuelan, outsiders don't know the relationship between them at all.

Hearing that the owner of the wood workshop, Lin, had already delivered furniture, Master Hu nodded and said, "Well, it's good to arrange it."

He and his brothers are grateful to Lin Yuelan.

If it wasn't for Lin Yuelan's proposal to set up a housing construction company, let their brothers be the supervisors, and then recruit people to form a team, these days would have become more and more popular, otherwise, maybe they are still living as mud workers in the countryside.

Now Lin Yuelan has built another You Come Me Me Restaurant in Zhoushan. Now that everything has been done, it is just waiting to open.

They had to admire Lin Yuelan herself. She was only twelve or thirteen years old. In addition to opening a pharmacy, she also had to open a restaurant, and the business was getting better and better.

Lin Jinmei drew pictures from the brochure, and then said, "Master Hu, with these two lists, I will arrange for people to go to work tomorrow."

After taking the booklet and seeing the house pattern on the booklet, he said, "Have President Hua and Member Chen decided that we want this style?"

Lin Jinmei nodded and said, "Well, it has been confirmed. Tomorrow, you will arrange the manpower."

Master Hu nodded and said, "Okay!"

...

Linjia Village

On the Daao Mountain, Lin Yuelan sat on the top of the mountain, closed her eyes, and entered the space directly.

Holding the jade pendant she got from Ji Changjin in her hand, she walked to the Linghe River and said to Xiaolinghe, "Xiaoling, where is this jade pendant?"

It's just that whether it's Xiaokong or Xiaoling, they can't speak at present, and only Xiaolu can speak in their place.

Xiaolu pointed to a spring at the source and said, "Master, just throw it into this spring."

Lin Yuelan did as Xiaolu said, and threw the jade pendant into the spring. After a while, there were obvious changes in both the small spirit river and the space.

This is to see that the Lingquan River is clearer and cooler, and the flowers and plants on the side obviously have a head in a moment, and the changes in the entire space are not the things she planted before, and the rest is the bare land. Son, but there are also some saplings coming out.

However, these are just small buds, and it seems impossible to have any changes.

Lin Yuelan knew that the aura of this jade pendant could only support space like this.

Lin Yuelan sighed lightly and said, "It seems that time has to be stepped up to find Jade Jade."

Otherwise, the more things she has to plant in the future, the more she needs to consume these auras. As a result, the auras in this space will soon be depleted.

Xiaolu and Lin Yuelan stood side by side and said to Lin Yuelan, "Master, I have inquired. There are a lot of jade sellers in Zhoushan, we can take a look."

Lin Yuelan said, "Well."

After Lin Yuelan left the space, she sat down again in a meditative position. Then, she saw a green energy rushing towards Lin Yuelan's left wrist.

This is the source of life from the flowers, plants and trees of Da'ao Mountain.

This time to Zhoushan, Lin Yuelan wanted to be fully prepared.
