Zheng Bajin has been very proud of himself recently.
Ever since he spent three thousand taels of silver to get through the door and become the god-grandson of Eunuch Wei, he felt that almost everyone's eyes had changed when they saw him, and he had also jumped from a young deacon in the Xixin Department to a direct employee.
The Dongchang became a small stall.
The monthly salary of a small stall is two to five taels of silver. It is unthinkable to rely on this monthly salary to earn back the three thousand taels of silver. But this is not how the accounts are calculated. Look at today's life
, he felt that the three thousand taels of silver were well spent.
There are too many ways to get money in Dongchang. These three thousand taels of silver were obtained through his savings over the past ten years and a large amount of foreign debt. According to his current situation, even if he keeps doing this
As a small stall owner, he felt that in less than a year, these three thousand taels of silver would have to return to his pocket obediently, and maybe bring some of their brothers and sisters with them.
The day before yesterday at Bei'anmen, he caught a glimpse of Wang Chengen. He remembered that when this guy served King Xin, he had tried to fawn over him in every possible way, but this guy was indifferent, and he suddenly became angry.
He had no choice but to step forward to find trouble and rewarded the other party with a few big mouths.
After this happened, he looked nonchalant on the surface, but in his heart he regretted his impulsiveness. After all, Wang Chengen was a person close to King Xin. If he really twisted his mouth in front of King Xin, he might not be able to forgive it.
Good to go.
When he returned to the police station, he told his godfather and supporter, Chen Tang, about the matter. He thought he would be scolded, but Chen Tang waved his hand: "It's a big deal.
He is just a little eunuch next to King Xin. I, Dongchang, will interrogate him. Isn’t it normal? If anyone asks, just say that you checked him carefully for the safety of King Xin. It’s okay!”
As soon as these words came out, he immediately felt relieved. Yes, buddy, I am from Dongchang. For the good of His Highness, I interrogated that bastard Wang Chengen. No one can say that Zheng Bajin did anything wrong. Even if he
His Royal Highness King Xin is not happy, brother, I also act according to the rules, and it is reasonable!
However, just in case, he stayed in the police station for several days without going out. As a result, nothing happened.
Today, he couldn't hold it in any longer, so he took his group of brothers out to relax early in the morning.
There was a restaurant over there at Xizhimen, and the cook was an imperial cook from the palace. He had known the cook before, and the cook told him that the business there was quite good.
In the past, he had no right to think about finding some money outside, but now that he is from Dongchang, this kind of business cannot be made easier for outsiders. After discussing with the cook, the restaurant will be considered as owned by them.
eyes.
Today he has to "persuade" the owner of the restaurant to see what price he should pay to sell the restaurant. To be honest, he has been to the restaurant several times and the matter has not been settled yet.
He was already a little impatient.
"Boss, is it so troublesome?" There were several gangsters around him who knew about this matter. As he walked towards Xizhimen, they knew that he was going to that restaurant.
"A businessman from other places is begging for food on our land. We are interested in his business and want to give him face. You leave this matter to our brothers and keep it for three days to tell him to get out. The boss will give you one tael of silver."
No need to go out!"
"You know what the heck!" Zheng Bajin looked at his men with disdain. These guys have never been in the palace. They don't know what is going on. Even if it is just a formality, they have to leave.
"Business is business, not robbery. Money must be given, but it's just a question of how much!" He taught his men: "The important thing is that in this restaurant business, there must be a middleman and a government witness. This is in compliance with the rules.
!”
"Aren't we just a government, and we still have to follow the rules with a small businessman?"
"If we don't follow the rules with this little businessman today, then others can break the rules with us tomorrow!" Zheng Bajin snorted slightly: "There are many people in the capital that we can't afford to offend. We don't follow the rules for that little businessman."
Businessmen are good for our own good!"
"That's right. I like people who follow rules the most!" A voice suddenly came from in front of them, and someone stopped them while clapping their hands.
The restaurant Kankan was already in front of him, Zheng Bajin stood still and looked at the person in front of him and the few people behind him with some suspicion.
"Who are you, you dare to block our way!" Youfanzi shouted sternly: "We are doing business in the East Factory, please get out of the way!"
"The student is just a nobody. I have a few questions. I would like to ask Mr. Zheng..." The man was dressed in a green shirt and looked like a poor scholar who was harmless to humans and animals.
"Say!" Zheng Bajin nodded, but he was more vigilant in his heart. He was stopped on the street and he could still call him by his surname and job title, but he didn't recognize him. This was not normal.
"Do you know that girl over there?" The poor scholar pointed behind him at the window on the second floor of the restaurant. A young girl smiled at Zheng Bajin and waved her hand.
"I don't know you!" Zheng Bajin said simply and neatly: "Are you and that girl invited by the owner of the restaurant to deal with the matter between me and him?"
"It seems that you haven't been to Xian'an Palace too often!" The poor scholar stared at him with a smile and waved to him. He subconsciously thought that the other party wanted to speak to him, so he moved his face towards him.
"Bang!" He heard a crisp sound, and he felt a flash of golden light in front of his eyes. Then, he opened his mouth wide and looked at the poor scholar in front of him with disbelief: "You hit me? You actually dare to hit me?"
When the fans around him saw Zheng Bajin slapped by the scholar, some of them with quick hands immediately pulled out the iron ruler from their waists, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
People from Dongchang were beaten in the street. These fans have never seen this happen before.
"If you work hard and don't work too hard, you won't be able to open your eyes. You don't even know the people around the Holy Empress. If you don't hit me, who will you hit..." The poor scholar shook his hands, as if his hands were hurt by his face: "Why?
, If you’re not convinced, if you’re not convinced, hit me!”
"Don't mess around!" Zheng Bajin stopped the fans who were about to make a move, turned around and glanced at the second floor of the restaurant, ignoring the increasingly prominent finger marks on his face, and forced a smile: "You just said, then
Is this girl the sister of the Holy Empress?"
"Ask her yourself! What if I'm talking nonsense?" The poor scholar chuckled: "Others say I look like a storyteller, and a storyteller can tell a few truths!"
"Don't!" Zheng Bajin said with a smile: "I don't know what to call this sister. I don't know that this sister is interested in this business, so she is messing around here. I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now!"
He said leaving, but his eyes were looking at the poor scholar in front of him. He would definitely not leave if the other party did not leave his name. As for leaving the name, when he turned around and asked, he knew whether it was true or not, which made him angry.
You can't afford to cause trouble anymore. Whether you can swallow it by yourself or find it again is another matter!
No one from the palace is capable of bending and stretching. A slap in the face is nothing!
"Her name is Li Fuyao!" The poor scholar seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said leisurely: "Even your factory boss loves her very much. Do you want to ask your factory boss..."
