Chapter 29: One civil and one military, poisonous snakes and tigers

Zhu Yeqing prepared the horses in advance, and after the two exchanged greetings, she led Chen Sheng and Qing Qing to the city.

He was quietly observing Chen Sheng along the way, with bitterness in his mouth.

He served Tianzun wholeheartedly and thought that the vacant helmsman position would fall to his head. Unexpectedly, he failed to draw water from the bamboo basket and was picked by "Cheng Yaojin" who came out halfway.

Not willing to accept it, not willing to accept it...

Who is this person?

The organization is very tight-lipped about the new helmsman's information and has not provided it at all. It is difficult to guess the real background, but it is estimated that he is definitely not a general person.

Zhu Yeqing glanced at Chen Sheng's face with his peripheral vision, glanced left and right, and finally stared at the black cloth bag in his hand.

Well, the size is long. Judging from the shape of the handle, it should be a sword master?

"Brother Zhuyeqing." Chen Sheng suddenly spoke.

"What advice does the big boss have?" Zhuyeqing quickly calmed down his emotions and dealt with it carefully.

Chen Sheng was riding on the horse with his back straight: "Remember what you said just now, brother, you are the leader of the left side of our helm, so the other one must be the leader of the right side?"

"That's right."

"Why didn't the right incense master come today?"

Zhu Yeqing coughed twice, with an awkward expression: "You Xiangzhu, he married the sixth concubine last night. He is in high spirits during happy events and is a little too drunk...perhaps, he may have overslept."

oh?

The new boss didn't come to greet him when he took office. Could it be that he was a thorn in the side and was playing a trick called showing off his power?

"What do you call the Master of Right Fragrance?"

A bit of resentment flashed through Zhuye Qing's eyes: "His surname is Tie, which means Tie of steel, tiger of tiger, Tiehu."

Chen Sheng said: "Iron is like steel, tiger is like fierce tiger, well, Master Youxiang must live up to his name, he must be a mighty man."

Okay, another anonymous master is hiding here!

Zhu Ye Qing and Tie Hu, two of them are both civil and military, and the two generals, Heng Ha, are actually together. This configuration is a wonderful one.

Zhu Yeqing said quickly: "Tiehu's temperament is a bit rough, but he is not deliberately negligent. Don't take it personally, big boss. I will send someone to say hello and ask him to come and see you."

"No need to bother." Chen Sheng said: "The beautiful concubine has just been married. Brother Tiehu must have been very tired last night. Hahaha, he is a hero, so let him rest."

"Yes, thank you for your consideration. I will apologize to the big boss on behalf of Tiehu."

"Master Zuo Xiang is too polite." Chen Sheng asked casually: "It seems that you two have a good relationship?"

Zhuyeqing's eyes flashed, and there was no expression on his face: "Ah, it's good."

…

On the most prosperous Zhuque Street in the city, there stands a huge mansion. This is Chen Sheng's residence. I believe he will settle here for a long time in the future.

The space inside the mansion is spacious, with many pine trees, winding bridges and flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, giving it a beautiful Jiangnan scenery.

"Is the big boss still satisfied?"

Chen Sheng got familiar with the environment and nodded: "Master Zuo Xiang, thank you for your trouble. It's big and quiet here. I like it."

Zhu Yeqing bent down beside him and smiled: "As long as the big boss likes it, it proves that my efforts are not in vain. If you think there is anything inappropriate, we can still make corrections."

"That's not necessary, thank you."

"Haha, it's all what subordinates should do. It's not worth mentioning."

Zhu Yeqing took Chen Sheng to the back house, entered the study on the west side, and began to hand over some important things to him.

The ledger is at the top.

Chen Sheng flipped through it and found that Tianzun's business had indeed spread to all walks of life, such as grain and oil, salt, sugar powder, pen and ink, fabrics, rouge and gouache... Well, that's right.

No matter what kind of organization it is, if you want to develop well, you must have enough financial resources to support it. Heroes in the world are attached to various forces. What do they want? One word: money.

It is difficult for a rich man to be a man without money. No matter where in the world, this truth will never go out of date.

"The account book for the inputs is here, but what about the expenditures? Why didn't I see it?"

Zhu Yeqing suddenly became hesitant and seemed to be in a dilemma.

Chen Sheng said: "Master Zuo Xiang, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."

"That's okay."

Zhuye Qing said: "Big boss, we have no problem with the income. It is definitely generous. It's a pity that for some reason, the monthly expenses are too huge."

He took out another account book from his arms and handed it over.

Chen Sheng turned to the first page and saw that it was full of red letters: In such-and-such month, Tiehu paid 110,000 taels, in such-and-such month, Tiehu paid 90,000 taels, in such-and-such month, 130,000...

This amount is astonishingly large, showing that Tie Huguang spent millions of taels of silver last year.

Damn it!

I thought I was already good at spending money, but I didn't expect that someone else was even better than him.

“How much should Tiehu’s real monthly payment be?”

"Fifty thousand taels."

"Then where did he spend his money?"

"Eating, drinking, gambling, and marrying a concubine."

There was no expression on Chen Sheng's face and he made no statement for the time being.

Zhu Yeqing took advantage of the handover to clear up old scores. On the surface, it was official business, but secretly he had the intention of "reporting evil". This brother seemed harmless, but in fact he took Chen Sheng's army and put him on the spot.

bake.

——The new boss is here, can he always cause "thorns" below?

Not moving makes you look weak.

If it moves, the old man's tree has big roots and deep roots, and he might become disgraced.

It doesn't matter if he moves or doesn't move. How vicious is this person's mind?

Chen Shengdao: "The previous helmsman should know the situation very well. How did he handle it?"

Zhuye Qing said: "Oh, the previous helmsman has been transferred. Because Tiehu has made great contributions and wiped out many hostile forces for us. The helmsman loves and hates him, so he has to use his own monthly money to subsidize him. Each

I have to pay a lot every month.”

"..."

Awesome, this ex is so broad-minded that he actually gave his salary to others?

Chen Sheng thought for a moment and said: "When Tiehu is free, ask him to come over and I will talk to him."

"You don't need to look for me, I'm already here!"

While he was talking, a nine-foot-tall man suddenly burst into the study.

This man was a truly burly man, with broad shoulders, a strong waist, and a pair of falcon-like eyes. His tough aura mixed with the strong smell of alcohol hit his face.

"Tiehu must not be reckless." Zhuyeqing quickly dissuaded him: "The big boss just arrived in Mianyang today, and it's been a long journey. You either have to wait until you sober up..."

"roll!"

Tiehu didn't even give him any face, and shouted sternly: "In front of me, when was it your turn to speak?"

Zhuyeqing's face turned the color of pig liver, and she was choked to the point of being speechless.

Chen Sheng waved his hand and signaled Zhu Yeqing to step back, then smiled and said: "Brother is Tie Hu?"

Tiehu said: "That's right! The former big boss has been transferred. Logically speaking, I should take over his position. Who do you think you are?"

——Chen Sheng knew very well that Tie Hu's recklessness was all performed for outsiders to see. This brother was actually the most powerful "pretender". His intelligence and cultivation were not inferior to Zhu Yeqing's, and he was seriously underestimated in the novel.

He wasn't angry either, and still maintained a pleasant expression: "Since I can be in front of you, it makes sense for me to take over the position of big boss."

"What do you think you deserve?"

Chen Sheng said calmly: "Just rely on this fast sword in my hand."
