Chapter 2532

The steward here is named Yang Ji, and he has been working for Qiong Lianfa for several years. He was transferred from Zhoushan to Hangzhou last year. Although he does not know the identities of Tao Hongfang and others, he knows who Ning Zijing is.

Chu. Although this young man is young, he is one of the senior worshipers on Qiong Lianfa's roster. He has a prominent status. Even if the local deacon's boss comes, he will probably have to show courtesy. And Tao Hongfang and others

Both Ning Zijing and Ning Zijing were called brothers, and even their entourage was no ordinary servant. It goes without saying that these people were definitely not ordinary people. At that moment, Yang Ji specifically told his subordinates to treat these distinguished guests.

You have to serve them well.

After Yang Ji asked Ning Zijing for instructions, he learned that they did not want to go out to eat, so he directly transferred all the chefs from the restaurant across the street to serve them. Not only did these chefs know how to cook Haihan-style dishes, they were also good at Jiangsu and Zhejiang

Huaiyang cuisine in the area. Ning Zijing and others lived in the south all year round, but rarely had the opportunity to taste authentic Huaiyang cuisine, so they ordered some local signature dishes to be cooked. Yang Ji did not dare to be too slow and came there in person

I went to work as a supervisor in the kitchen.

"Zijing, this is a comfortable job for you. There are people waiting for you wherever you go, and you are not like us who have to take into account your status and abide by the rules of the yamen." Tao Hongfang drank tea while paying respects to Ning Zi.

The treatment showed envy. Of course, such an expression was only half-joking. If his family background were revealed, the stewards here would treat him as a Bodhisattva.

Ning Zijing smiled and said: "My status as a worshiper is only useful in Qionglianfa. Who cares after I leave this door? I can't compare with several brothers. They have official positions and are not afraid of traveling all over the world!"

Although Ning Zijing is young, he also knows very well where his status as a worshiper in Qiong Lianfa comes from. Qiong Lianfa is willing to provide himself with such superior treatment, of course, not because of his outstanding professional abilities, but mainly because

I have an old father who is in charge of the power of the country. However, this enshrinement status is indeed only valid within Qiong Lianfa. It may seem convenient when traveling outside, but for ordinary people, the influence is definitely not as much as that of officials serving in the yamen.

The other three people traveling with him this time are all officials. Although their current positions are not high, with their status, it is only a matter of time before they enter the upper echelons of power. And Ning Zijing still has the opportunity to join the officialdom from businessmen, switch to officialdom, and then

Take the path that most second-generation wearers would choose.

Bai Letong said: "With Zijing's ability and qualifications, if you want to switch to the Ministry of Commerce and become colleagues with Hongfang, I think there won't be much of a problem."

Ha Jianyi, however, was rough and tumble. He shook his head and retorted: "In my opinion, Zijing may not have this ambition. Otherwise, why bother to go through all this trouble? Why not just say hello to Mr. Shi directly?"

Ning Zijing smiled and said: "My junior qualifications are still relatively young and I still need to hone my skills slowly. As for whether to engage in business or politics in the future, there is no need to rush to make a decision at this time."

Ning Zijing did not want to continue this topic, and the others naturally would not force it. Everyone drank tea and chatted, and soon the steward Yang Ji hurriedly came to report that the banquet was ready.

When everyone sat down, they saw that the dishes on the table, such as crab meat and lion head, squirrel mandarin fish, Wensi tofu, and duck-wrapped shark's fin, were all local specialities. Together with a jar of Shaoxing daughter's red wine, it was a standard Huaiyang cuisine configuration.

With Yang Ji's status, he was naturally not qualified to serve as a guest at the table, so he could only serve on the side. Only then did Ning Zijing remember and asked where the local deacon was.

Yang Ji responded respectfully: "The boss, the old man, went to Yangzhou the day before yesterday, and he will probably stay there for a few days. If Master Ning stays here for a longer time, we will definitely meet up."

In fact, Ning Zijing only learned about the person in charge of Qiong Lianfa in Jiangsu and Zhejiang after receiving the transfer order in Sanya. Qiong Lianfa was jointly funded and established by more than a dozen commercial institutions at the time, with offices distributed in various places.

Generally, the regional heads of these commercial organizations hold concurrent posts, and Hangzhou is no exception.

The person who serves as the chief deacon of the new office in Hangzhou is Li Fa, the eldest of the three brothers of the Furifeng Li family in Guangzhou. Furifeng is now divided into three parts by region. The second eldest brother Li Po is in charge of the Guangdong and Guangxi areas.

The South China Sea area, including Hainan Island, is the business scope of the third eldest brother Li Nai. As for the north of Guangdong and Guangxi, all the eldest brother Li Fa is responsible.

With Li Fa's status, he is also the person in charge of Qiong Lianfa in Hangzhou, which is actually a low-level job. However, considering the future development prospects of Hangzhou, it is not difficult for Qiong Lianfa and the Li family to attach great importance to this place.

I understand. Moreover, the scale of the office Qiong Lianfa built in Hangzhou is very large, and the funds and various resources invested are far beyond those of ordinary offices. Only by having a prestigious person like Li Fa in charge can the shareholders feel at ease.

These young people are indeed not familiar with Li Fa, but they are familiar with Li Fa's third brother Li Nai. Li Nai visits Sanya almost every year, and has a close personal relationship with the fathers of Ning Zijing and others.

Not to mention Ha Jianyi’s father, Harugong, who has been serving overseas all year round. The other three have known Li Nai since they were very young. Among the Ming businessmen who visit Sanya every year, Li Nai is one of the few

A person who can be a guest in the homes of senior officials of the Executive Committee.

Their fathers and Li Nai had a close relationship as teachers and friends, and starting from their generation, they would always call Li Nai "uncle" when meeting him. The relationship was extremely close. From this relationship, Ning

After Zijing arrived in Hangzhou, he would naturally be taken care of by Li Fa.

Although Li Fa was not in Hangzhou at this time, judging from the level of reception given by Qiong Lianfa, it is very likely that Li Fa had made arrangements in advance. After all, Qiong Lianfa, as an official partner of Haihan, will also use official services for a long time.

He used the commercial telegraph service to deliver important news. After Ning Zijing set off from Sanya, it was estimated that Li Fa had already received the news early.

Although there was no host to accompany them, the young people did not feel restrained and enjoyed their first meal after arriving in Hangzhou. Tao Hongfang was attentive and even consulted Yang Ji specifically about the Haihan official office in Hangzhou.

information.

After all, they all have official missions. After arriving in Hangzhou, they will definitely have to contact the relevant departments and inquire about the location of the Yamen and other information in order to be prepared.

After asking, I learned that Shi Diwen moved the administrative seat of Donghai Region to Hangzhou last year, and temporarily requisitioned the original Zhejiang Sansi Yamen and Hangzhou Fuyamen as the offices of various departments. After the new city is completed, we will monitor the progress.

Decide whether to move. However, Shi Diwen himself did not live in Hangzhou, but chose a manor on the edge of the West Lake outside the city as his official residence.
