Fang Zian and others said goodbye and left, while the two sons of the Zheng family rushed into the small pavilion to inquire about the situation.

"Why did that person named Fang come to Quanzhou? Did he come to ask for money?" Zheng Boping asked anxiously.

Zheng Zhilong sneered: "I just want money. I'm afraid he has other motives for coming this time."

"What does he want to do? Is it because the imperial court gives me the power of the Zheng family?" Zheng Bo'an said in a deep voice.

Zheng Zhilong nodded approvingly to Zheng Bo'an, as his eldest son could still consider some things.

"Bo'an is right. His purpose of coming here is definitely not to get money. Although he said that the imperial court is about to go to war and wants my Zheng family to support the army and serve the country. However, his intention is definitely not like this.

I deliberately stated my words directly, just to see his attitude and reaction, but he hesitated and refused to speak. As far as I can see, he not only wants money, I'm afraid he also wants more. Back then, the emperor promised me the Zheng family's

He wants to take back the privilege. In other words, the prince wants to take it back." Zheng Zhilong said solemnly.

"Damn it, does the emperor mean what he says? Daddy saved him back then, and he was so grateful that he asked for the gift. Why is he taking it back now? Doesn't the emperor have such good words? I think it's like farting." Zheng Boping cursed angrily.

"Boping, shut up! What's the use of scolding? The emperor is about to abdicate, and the tea will be cold when he leaves. Don't you understand this principle? Even Yue Fei and the others have been rehabilitated. The situation has changed, and the atmosphere of the court has also changed. The emperor's promise before was natural

Don't count. Fang Zian should have come to test our words this time and see the specific situation. Before the emperor formally abdicated, they couldn't directly deprive me of the Zheng family's rights, so they thought of asking us to hand it over ourselves.

.Hehe, they thought wrong, how could our Zheng family take the initiative to hand over our privileges? That is the foundation for our Zheng family to stand on." Zheng Zhilong sneered.

"Dad, did someone here leak the news? Has the court noticed something? Could it be that they know about the relationship between my Zheng family and Prime Minister Qin?" Zheng Bo'an whispered.

Zheng Zhilong frowned and said in deep thought: "It shouldn't be the case. Things between us and Qin Hui are extremely secretive, and most people don't know about it. Boping also used a pseudonym when he went to Lin'an to meet Qin Hui. He was very cautious. How could others know about this?

If the above-level relationships are known, how can we live in peace at this moment? As soon as Qin Hui dies, we will be liquidated. However, it cannot be ruled out that the court has never been free. They always have to solve the affairs of the court first before it is their turn.

Us. If this person surnamed Fang is here to inquire about our strength, then I am afraid that he is really going to take action against my Zheng family. I hope it will not be so bad. If the imperial court knows about our relationship with Qin Hui, a fight will be inevitable.

.”

Zheng Boping smacked his lips and said, "Let me tell you, we shouldn't have gotten together with Qin Hui in the first place. Let's do our business, get together with him, and make us fearful. It's really not cost-effective."

Zheng Zhilong shouted: "What do you know? There were people in the court who wanted to get rid of my Zheng family. It was Qin Hui who came forward to help my Zheng family tide over the difficulties. Otherwise we would have been finished. Of course, Qin Hui's purpose was to get my Zheng family to do things for him, but

After all, they have protected my Zheng family. Do you think that since our Zheng family has been operating here for so many years and is as stable as a mountain, no one will be jealous and no one will slander the emperor? Those are all people with connections, connections and financial resources. Who wouldn’t want to?

Stealing my Zheng family's business? They formed a partnership to eat up my Zheng family. If Qin Hui hadn't stepped in to stop us, we would have been eaten alive by them."

Zheng Boping

He smacked his lips and said, "But now I can't get away either."

Zheng Zhilong said coldly: "What are you getting away with? How much chance and coincidence is it that our Zheng family is here today? Our Zheng family is not from the Song Dynasty. Our ancestors came across the ocean and were discriminated against here. It is not easy to stand up.

I have a firm foothold, but no backing, and I am often bullied. If I hadn't followed Yang Yi's advice and went to sea to protect the emperor, how could I have grown in the future? Speaking of which, Yang Yi is really powerful.

The Song Dynasty will not die. The emperor will make a comeback. He will establish a capital in Lin'an to stabilize the situation. He persuaded me to rescue the emperor with all his strength when he was drifting at sea, so as to win the merit of protecting him. Everything he said came true. He is really a brilliant scholar.

Gentleman. He asked me to ask the emperor for those three privileges, and they were all on point. Otherwise, how would our Zheng family be today?"

"It's a pity... he was fed to the lions by his father." Zheng Bo'an smacked his lips.

Zheng Zhilong said coldly: "He deserves it. He thinks he has some abilities and even I don't take him seriously. I gave him a lot of courtesy, but he actually asked me to give him half of the shares of Zheng's Shipping Company. This is nothing more than convenience.

It's just money. This bitch has harmed your sister and... even hooked up with your aunt. How can I tolerate him? If I don't feed him to the lions, won't he be like God?"

Zheng Bo'an nodded and said: "The child didn't say what dad did was wrong, so Yang Yi deserves to die. But... he is really capable. He seems to have the ability to predict the future. The Song Dynasty was already like that, and the emperor was driven to the sea.

He actually insisted that the emperor would make a comeback. My father probably didn't believe it at the time, but he said that as long as he could protect the emperor's safety, he would be able to protect him and the Zheng family would be blessed in the future. He really meant what he said.

Total success. What a pity for this guy. When I was a child, I thought he was very strange and spoke weird words. I also said that he fell from the sky and was not from the Song Dynasty."

Zheng Boping also said: "Yes, Uncle Yi... No... Yang Yi is indeed very strange and very capable. I have been to his residence, and his room is full of papers with various patterns. I see

I couldn't even understand it. But he said that once these things were built, he could be the emperor. I was young at the time and didn't understand what he was talking about. He was talking about some weapons, tanks, airplanes, machine guns, etc. I didn't know what they were.

What. It does feel like he is from another world."

Zheng Zhilong sighed: "Yeah, it's a pity. If he were here and could help me, my Zheng family might be even more famous than it is now. He originally suggested that I build more ships and train more troops and horses, so that I can save my life in the future. He said that sooner or later the court would have to

Taking action against the Zheng family, it seems that his prediction was right again. Fortunately, I listened to him. Our Zheng family can now organize a navy of more than a hundred large ships at any time, and we are not afraid of anyone. This guy...

If I hadn't provoked my concubine and messed up my Zheng family's back house, I wouldn't have fed him to the lions. Hey, let's not talk about it anymore, it's all in the past."

Zheng Bo'an said: "Then how does daddy plan to deal with this Fang Zian?"

Zheng Boping said from the side: "We might as well kill him without doing anything else. Anyway, he is not the only official we have killed. He is not too much. Tomorrow I will ask him to board the ship and go to sea, and go to sea to let people

Lift them all into the sea and feed them to the sharks. Then they will be said to have lost their footing and fell into the sea."

Zheng Boan sneered: "Then Qin Xiqing will be yours, right?"

Zheng Boping rolled his eyes and said, "Brother, I can give it to you if I want. We brothers don't care about each other."

Zheng Zhilong shouted: "Shut up! Bo Ping, I warn you not to

You have to be careless. This time is different from the past. Who is this Fang Zian? He is extremely shrewd and capable. It is said that he caused civil strife among the Jin people in the Jin Kingdom. It was he who laid the foundation for Qin Hui.

He is a confidant of the prince. This time he came to Quanzhou with only a few people and his family members. He was obviously confident. It is impossible for him not to know that the Zheng family in Quanzhou is not someone to be trifled with, yet he dared to come like this. Maybe

He is ready and waiting for us to take action so that we can find an excuse. Don't act rashly for the time being and wait and see how the situation develops. If he really comes to do us harm, it won't be too late to take action when the time comes."

Zheng Boping had no choice but to bow and say, "Children, just listen to your father."

Zheng Boan whispered: "But how can Mr. Lin explain it? He seems to be going crazy."

Zheng Zhilong frowned and said: "Where is he? At the banquet just now, he was too impressed. Fang Zian seemed to be suspicious. He also said that he had seen him there. He is so anxious because he wants to spoil our big event.

.”

Zheng Bo'an said: "He is in the small hall of the West Garden. When I saw him just now, he was angry, smashing tables and chairs, and swearing."

Zheng Boping said angrily: "What right does he have to be angry in my Zheng family? If it weren't for the kindness of Qin Hui who helped us back then, how could he take him in? After Qin Hui died, he is nothing. After so many years, he has won me

How much benefit does the Zheng family get?"

Zheng Zhilong waved his hand and said: "Don't say anything like this. He is the son of Qin Hui, and he can still be talked to in the Jin Kingdom. We still need to use him to contact the Jin people. That is our escape route. We must not be rude to him.

Bo'an went and asked him to come here, and I'll talk to him."

Zheng Bo'an nodded in agreement and bowed to leave. Zheng Zhilong brought the tea cup to his mouth. When he saw Zheng Boping still standing there, he frowned and said, "Why are you still standing here? Go to the chessboard garden and keep an eye on Fang Zian and the others. Remember,

Don't make your own decisions, don't alert others. Learn from your brother and be more prudent."

Uncle Zheng showed a displeased look on his face, but he still bowed and said, "Just go away, my child. Why are you talking about me with my brother?"

After the two brothers left, Zheng Zhilong sat alone in the pavilion and fell into deep thought. The words he had just now with his two sons brought back some memories of his. Especially Yang Yi, he still cannot forget it.

Yang Yi is a native of Quanzhou. When the Zheng family was not very prestigious in Quanzhou, Yang Yi was just a gentleman in his accountant. Until one day, it was spread all over the city that the emperor was driven to the sea by the Jin soldiers.

The news. Someone also saw the emperor's boat being chased by Jin soldiers on the sea. That day, Yang Yi suddenly came to find him, asking him to seize this opportunity to make contributions to the dragon.

I didn't want to believe him, but he swore so much. He said that the Song Dynasty was still full of energy, and that the emperor who was being hunted would rise again to stabilize the situation and confront the Jin people from north to south. Regardless of whether he could help the emperor or not, the emperor would.

He will not be killed by the Jin soldiers. If the Zheng family wants to develop, they must seize this opportunity.

Zheng Zhilong was worried about the development of the Zheng family at that time. As a descendant of a merchant from Semu Lai, even though he changed his surname to Han and married a Song Dynasty woman, and had lived in Quanzhou for three generations, the Zheng family still was not recognized by the locals and was always regarded as

The Zheng Family Boat Company was also in a dilemma. Zheng Zhilong really needed an opportunity to make the Zheng Family Boat Company rise. Yang Yixin swore an oath, and Zheng Zhilong finally decided to give it a try. So that feat was achieved.
