Chen Xi took this opportunity to get the operating rights of the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce in Beijing. In addition to his feeling that he has the ability to provide power protection for the Chamber of Commerce and can also use the power of the Chamber of Commerce to help him do many things, the main purpose is to completely eliminate Fatty Zhou.

Fatty Zhou obviously did not want to give up the qualifications of the Ministry of Revenue transport of grain that he had obtained. He looked aggrieved and said, "Caomin worked hard for the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce. He dared not keep all the money he earned. He used it to handle joints and transferred part of it to the Chamber of Commerce's bank account. How could Lord Shen be so ruthless?"

Chen Xidao: "Zhou's head of the Zhou family is responsible for your own sake, not the Chamber of Commerce. However, Zhou's head of the Chamber of Commerce has almost caused the Chamber of Commerce to suffer unjust injustice and brings me certain risks. In the future, everyone will not violate the river water, and for your own good, it is also for the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce. Even if Zhou family continues to transport goods to the court, they will no longer be involved with the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce. You walk on your Yangguan Road and I walk on my single-plank bridge."

Fatty Zhou thought to himself: "If I had not had the title of Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce, how could I get the qualification to transport grain for the Ministry of Revenue? How can those industries under my name be blessed?"

“Okay.”

Fatty Zhou judged the situation and immediately agreed, "Then the grass-roots industry will be under the name of the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce. What is the dispatch of Lord Shen and the chief of the Chamber of Commerce? Just give me the order."

Fatty Zhou was thinking about his wishful thinking in his heart.

You are an official, so you must not focus on doing business. Most of the industries in the Chamber of Commerce are now concentrated in Fujian, Jiangxi and other places. It is impossible for the heads of the Chamber of Commerce to let go of their foundation and go north. In this way, the mountains and rivers are far beyond reach. Even if you do what you said, I will just change my appearance and continue my previous career.

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Dangmao Zhou promised so readily, I wonder how sincere he is?"

Fatty Zhou quickly defended: "How dare the Caomin deceive Lord Shen? Even if you want to sell the Caomin's industry and use it as a way, the Caomin will obey the orders."

How could Chen Xi not see through what Fatty Zhou thought? He said: "Since that's the case, in the future, the branch of the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce in Beijing will be subject to the big and small matters of Song Xiaocheng and Song Dangjia. Does Zhou Dangjia have any objections?"

Fatty Zhou looked at Song Xiaocheng with disdain... Which young man is this young man? But he is a little brutally strong. I heard that someone had killed someone and had a lawsuit. But the cruel characters under my command were everywhere, how could he be afraid of him?

Fatty Zhou said: "Mr. Shen wants Song to take charge of the company, and Caomin has no objection, but... I am afraid that the people under my command will not be easy to transfer. If Song Zhuang's family has any trouble, it will be bad."

Song Xiaocheng said proudly: "This is not a problem for the President Zhou family to worry. The people under your command have a good relationship with me..."

As he said that, Song Xiaocheng greeted two people from the dock. When the people approached, Fatty Zhou's face turned gray... Both of them were his right-hand men, brothers who had been born and died with him, one was Han Jing and the other was Lu Fengsi. He always felt that these two subordinates obeyed his will, but for some reason they had quietly defected to Song Xiaocheng.

"The head of the family, this... the Song head of the family has Lord Shen for their support. We are just promoted to Xiaomin. After thinking about it, they will have a chance with the Song head of the family. Don't be surprised." Han Jing was relatively timid and explained the reason for surrender as Song Xiaocheng had the background of Chen Xi, the official.

As for Lu Fengsi's face, he had no explanation. He just looked at Chen Xi with respect. Fatty Zhou knew it clearly. Lu Fengsi was obviously afraid that Chen Xi would sell himself and defect to him.

Fatty Zhou had a blue and red face, and he was not reliable even for two brothers of life and death, let alone others. Without these capable generals, he was a nameless leader. So what if the shops and warehouses were his? His fists were not hard and he would not speak loudly. In the future, he could only obey Song Xiaocheng's arrangements.

Chen Xi said: "If the Zhou family goes back on their word, it's okay, but it's hard to say how many of your subordinates are willing to follow you. The Song family has brought enough money to Beijing this time. Now that there is enough manpower, you can start a new business. Then, don't say you don't have enough care for each other."

After this incident, Fatty Zhou knew that the officials were all in person and behind the scenes. Chen Xi seemed easy to talk to, but he could make Jiang Liwei, the great official of the Jinyiwei, a person who was covered in dust, would he be a soft character?

"How should the money you earn be distributed?" Fatty Zhou naturally cared about the issue of interest distribution.

Chenxi Road: "Five-five-part!"

When Fatty Zhou heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood: "Is it too hard for Lord Shen to do this?"

Chen Xi said in a leisurely tone: "We don't care about the warehouses and shops run by Zhou Dangjia, and we only get the benefits we deserve. What's wrong with it? If Zhou Dangjia refuses to cooperate, I wonder how much can it be divided?"

Fatty Zhou thought about it and found that there was still 50% cooperation. If he didn't cooperate, he would not even have 10% of them. All his subordinates ran away with Song Xiaocheng, and this one offended Chen Xi and Jiang Liwei at the same time. It is hard to say whether he can gain a foothold in the capital in the future.

If you want to keep the industry, you will only have the only way to cooperate with Chenxi.

Being forced to do nothing, Fatty Zhou could only agree: "Just do everything as Lord Shen said."

...

...

Chen Xi had been waiting for all the grain to be shipped at the Paozihe Wharf, and watched the fleet leave the city from Shuiguan before leaving with Song Xiaocheng.

Song Xiaocheng kept telling the story of winning over Fatty Zhou during this period.

When Chen Xi returned to Quanzhou, Song Xiaocheng began to arrange services in Tingzhou. On the one hand, he raised funds, and on the other hand, he recruited people. When Chen Xi left Quanzhou and went to Nanjing, he also boarded the road from Tingzhou.

This time, Song Xiaocheng brought seventy or eighty gang members to the capital. In the future, the capital will be another base for the carriage and horse gang. Song Xiaocheng, the master of the capital, is no longer just a fight and killing person in the world, but a gang leader with an official background and an industry and someone in charge, officially replacing the former position of Fatty Zhou.

"...It's still reasonable for the adults to say that Zhou is stingy. Before leaving at the end of last year, I had a good relationship with his subordinates. This time I said I would establish a new mountain. They all came to us. With this group of people, the situation will be easy to unfold!"

Regarding Fatty Zhou's stinginess, Chen Xi first met Fatty Zhou. When he didn't know his identity, he heard others say that Fatty Zhou was a typical villain. He used all his money to buy industries and collect beauties, antiques, calligraphy and paintings to curry favor with officials, but he was very mean to his subordinates.

Perhaps Fatty Zhou felt that he was powerful and had a prosperous business. He had an official background. None of his men dared to rebel against him. He only needed to be on guard against those who were officials. In the end, he expected it to come true. The officials were indeed plotting against him. First, there were Jiang Liwei and then Chen Xi, but Jiang Liwei was more rude and direct. He was not as cruel and direct as Chen Xi, so Chen Xi not only wanted to steal Fatty Zhou's business, but also his manpower and territory.

Chen Xi reminded: "I remember to do some good things in Shuntian Prefecture, Daxing and Wanping County Office."

Song Xiaocheng nodded and said, "I understand that the money has been sent, and even the Wucheng Military Affairs Office is filial. Anyway, we are doing the job of helping the court transport grain. No matter how hard the government office is, it will not be too difficult. Now the martial law in the city is inconvenient to go anywhere."

Chenxidao: "If the energy is hot today, the Tartars will not be able to rob Beiguan for a long time. I expect that the city will return to normal in less than a few days... Remember to do things cleanly and neatly. Even if it is a life lawsuit, you must not let the people under your hands be exposed to blood. Remember!"

As an emerging force in the capital, the Chema Gang not only wants to fight with Fatty Zhou, but also needs to prevent others from snatching the territory. It is inevitable to fight.

The power of the capital is even more complicated than that of Fuzhou City. Now the carriage and horse gang has not yet integrated the power of Fuzhou City. It is not easy to gain a foothold in the capital.

Fortunately, Fatty Zhou has laid a good foundation, and Song Xiaocheng has been tempered in the carriage and horse gang. Now he has brought a lot of capable hands, as well as the convenience of the Ministry of Revenue transporting grain and the support of the government. After standing firmly on the mountain, it will be a problem of slowly expanding. At that time, the silver can enter the capital with justification.

Song Xiaocheng did not accompany Chen Xi home because there were road checkpoints on each street, so it was easy to go back with Chen Xi. If you came out, you had to have a road sign or a document. The document he received at Shuntian Prefecture could only come and go freely at the Paozihe Wharf and Shuiguan in Chongwenmen, the Chongwenmen South City during the day. Now he lives near Mingzhifang Grassland.

Chen Xi asked Song Xiaocheng to seize the time to gather Fatty Zhou's staff... After Fatty Zhou lost power, he would definitely counterattack. He had to cut off Fatty Zhou's thoughts first.

...

...

When she returned to Jiaozhongfang's home, Xie Yun'er had not yet fallen asleep and was staying up late to wait for him. Lin Dai was not as patient as Xie Yun'er. After dinner, she waited for Chen Xi to not return home, so she went back to her room to sleep.

Chen Xi went to Xie Yun'er's room, and Xie Yun'er personally brought water in to wash Chen Xi. Chen Xi felt tired and didn't even want to eat supper, so she wanted to go to bed early.

"What business is my husband doing to be so late?"

If it were an ordinary woman, her husband would definitely suspect that his husband had an affair when he returned late, but Xie Yun'er trusted Chen Xi very much because she knew that her husband was an open-minded person, and the two beautiful wives in the family made him exhausted and had no more ideas.

Chen Xidao: "It's the business of the Chamber of Commerce. Brother Liu arrived in the capital in the first few days and was doing things as I told him. Due to martial law in the city, he was not allowed to come. He also came with his sister-in-law and her children. When he arrived in the capital, he had to stay in the capital for a long time. In the short time, the Chamber of Commerce branch will open to the capital."

Xie Yuner put her head on her back and thought for a while, and asked, "Why didn't you hear me say anything when I was in Tingzhou?"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Although you are a good wife, you don't have to tell you everything, right? Actually, I just said hello to Aunt Sun for this matter. You also know that Aunt Sun has been avoiding me. I plan to slowly expand the Chamber of Commerce to Jiangbei in the future. After all, Fujian is too remote and the development limitation is too great."

Chen Xi was exhausted and came to the bedside, lay down with his clothes, closed his eyes and wanted to sleep. Xie Yun'er came over to help him take off his boots, and helped him take off his clothes, taking care of him very considerate and thoughtful.

Chen Xi opened his eyes and looked at Xie Yuner's gentle and meticulous appearance. He couldn't help but smile. He wanted to say a few love words but was really unstimulated. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When the sun was over three o'clock, Chen Xi was woken up by Xie Yun'er and told a customer that she had been waiting for Chen Xi in the front hall for some time.

"I've been here some kind face. I should have been here before, but I just don't remember where I saw it." Xie Yun'er frowned and thought about it, as if she felt that the person who came gave her a strange feeling. After she described it like this, Chen Xi knew that the person who came was Yu Niang dressed in men's clothes.

Chen Xi put on her clothes under the service of Xie Yuner. When she arrived at the reception room in the front yard, Yu Niang came up and apologized to Chen Xi.

Chen Xi asked strangely: "Why did Yu Niang help me in yesterday's incident? Why did she blame me?"

"I failed to report to Mr. Liu in time and could not stop him before Lord Jiang took action. It was my family's fault." Yu Niang looked ashamed, "However, Mr. Liu severely scolded Lord Jiang yesterday and did not allow Lord Jiang to involve any matters related to Lord Shen and the Chamber of Commerce. Lord Shen is relieved."

The grudges that have been formed will be settled one day, so how can it be so easy to let go?

Chen Xidao: "What else do you have to do on Shangshu Liu?"

In order to avenge the crime, Yu Niang would not come here deliberately, unless Liu Daxia had something to explain.

Yu Niang said: "The meaning of Shangshu Liu is to recommend it to the court and ask Lord Shen to take a job from the Ministry of Revenue and go to Xuanfu for a while."
