Zhu Han was stunned when he heard this. He had just decided to burn the boat, but now it was a bright future. Such a rapid reversal made him unable to react.
"Bo Yun! It seems you don't have to make dangerous moves anymore!"
Xi Zhicai was also stunned when he heard this, and then joked: "It seems that the second son of the Zhen family is also a believer!"
"Tmd, it came so fast, only a few days have passed, and all the supplies have been obtained. It seems that the Zhen family's background is not comparable to that of ordinary people!"
Only then did Zhu Han come to his senses. In his opinion, Zhen Yan's visit was undoubtedly to conclude a deal.
Hearing Zhu Han sighing endlessly, as the saying goes, the speaker has no intention, the listener has intention, Xi Zhicai's heart was immediately aroused by his words, and his face became more and more ugly.
"Zhicai, what's wrong with you? Is it a good thing that boy Zhen Yan is here?"
Looking at Xi Zhicai's constipated expression, Zhu Han asked in confusion.
"It seems that Zhen Yan is not a trustworthy person, but a ruthless person!" Xi Zhicai's eyes were gloomy, and he analyzed for Zhu Han: "Boyun, it has only been half a month since Zhen Yan reached a deal with us. This county is far away from Wuji County."
There are four to five hundred miles of land, right? There are so many supplies that need to be prepared and transported, how could he come to Jing County now?"
"You mean?" After hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Zhu Han's face immediately fell, and he asked with a face: "Isn't that bastard Zhen Yan here to trade?"
"You'll know if you ask!" Xi Zhicai didn't dare to make a conclusion. He quickly turned to Dian Wei and asked, "Dian Wei, how many cars have come to the Zhen family?"
"Car? What car?" Dian Wei touched his bald head and replied in confusion: "Zhen Yan is just like last time, with a group of guards on white horses. As for the carriage, there is one."
"It seems...you guessed it right!"
As the old saying goes, whatever you are afraid of will come to you. After Zhu Han and Xi Zhicai looked at each other, they could see a trace of worry in each other's eyes.
"Let's go! Let's go meet the second young master of the Zhen family for a while and see what kind of medicine he is selling in his gourd! I don't know which giant Buddha we have invited to come to the market this time."
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Zhu Han is too lazy to waste his brain cells on this matter. In his opinion, if Zhen Yan is not a good boy, there are many people who are good at it. Why should he have an unrequited love for this flower?
He tidied his clothes a little and walked out of the study first.
"Miss Ning'er, I'm resigning!"
Zhu Han ignored Zhang Ning, but that didn't mean Xi Zhicai dared to do so. He quickly stood up and apologized to Zhang Ning and followed Zhu Han out of the study.
"This guy! He's really trying to get his nose in the face!"
Zhang Ning looked at Zhu Han's leaving back with complicated eyes. She was so angry that she stamped her little feet, but she didn't lose her temper. It was obvious that she was also touched by Zhu Han's words just now.
Zhu Han talked about some things about the Taiping Religion in front of her, which shows that he trusts her. Zhang Ning has been doted on by the three Zhang Jiao brothers since he was a child, and his character has developed into an unruly and eccentric character. However, this is not the case.
It doesn't mean that Zhang Ning is stupid, on the contrary, Zhang Ning is very smart. He can tell from Zhu Han's words that his unmarried husband seems to have guessed what her father is planning to do.
"You kid can see it, why can't I see it? Rebellion is just a joke, nonsense, how could dad rebel..."
Zhang Ning was talking to himself, and his voice became softer and softer. He seemed to be lacking in confidence.
'Ah... I'm so angry with my aunt! No, I have to go back and ask my father in person!'
Zhang Ning was a little afraid that Zhu Han had told the truth. Distraught, Zhang Ning walked out of the study and led his men out of the yamen through the back door, preparing to rush to Litao and question Zhang in person.
horn.
In front of the Yamen, Zhen Yan stood with his hands behind his hands, and Wen Chou stood beside him.
"Ha ha..."
Before the person arrived, the voice came first. I saw Zhu Han reaching out his hand to give Zhen Yan a warm hug from a long distance away. He said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a few days, it feels like three autumns! I mentioned it just now.
Second Young Master, I didn’t expect you to come now!”
Zhu Han was very enthusiastic, but he didn't expect it. He stuck to someone's cold butt. Zhen Yan turned to one side and avoided Zhu Han's hands. He sneered and said: "Master Zhu, I am accompanying Anping today.
Prime Minister Zhu is here!"
"Master Zhu is here too? Where is he?"
After hearing Zhen Yan's words, a fat figure with a kind face immediately appeared in Zhu Han's mind.
"Oh! I heard that Mr. Zhu, you changed your name. I wonder what you are called now?"
Just when Zhu Han looked around, preparing to look for the figure of the Prime Minister, the curtain of the carriage was rolled up, and the fat figure also appeared in Zhu Han's eyes. Zhu You, is this person's name, don't look
His name is not that good, but his family background is really powerful. The Zhu family of Xindu is the leading wealthy family in the entire Anping Kingdom. Even the Prince of Anping, Liu Xu, would have a hard time shaking his foundation.
"Haha, long time no see. How are you doing, Mr. Zhu?"
Just as Zhu You got off the carriage, another figure suddenly appeared in the carriage. When Zhu Han saw that person's appearance, his smiling face suddenly wrinkled up. He suppressed the disgust in his heart and cupped his hands and replied: "I've seen you, Zhu Han."
Mr. Zhu, the Prime Minister of the country, has met King Anping!"
It turned out that the person riding in the same carriage with Zhu You was Liu Xu's grandson. Zhu Han knew that the person coming was evil as soon as he saw the formation, but they had not made a move yet, and he could not get stage fright first, so he could only
He led everyone to the Yamen reception room to entertain.
"Bo Yun, um, what a good name!" After Zhu You heard Zhu Hanxin's name, he nodded and said with a smile: "It's much better than the previous Zhu Hansan!"
"Thank you so much for the compliment, Your Majesty the Prime Minister! I wonder why you came to Jing County this time?"
Zhu You has been in the officialdom for more than ten years, and he has an aura of calmness and authority. Even Wang Fen, the governor of Jizhou, is slightly inferior to this guy. Perhaps this is the true style of a son of a wealthy family.
"King Anping has mentioned to me many times that you, Mr. Zhu, have a unique wine in your hands. You little guy, after you have such a good product, don't you know how to send two bottles and let me, an old guy, taste it?"
"Zhu You had a smile on his face and a soft tone, which made people feel like a spring breeze after listening to it, and they couldn't even feel the slightest disgust. Moreover, even Zhu Han would have been defeated by such a familiar opening. If it weren't for Liu Xu
, if the two grandsons Zhen Yan came with him, Zhu Han really wanted to have a drink and talk with Zhu You, but at the moment, even a blind man could guess that this old boy came here with ulterior motives.
"I have long wanted to send a few altars to you, the Prime Minister. However, I was busy with things, so I was delayed for a while. For such a trivial matter, I bothered the Prime Minister to come to your door in person. It is really my fault. I am in disgrace.
It’s your fault!”
Zhu Han quickly asked Xi Zhicai to fetch some jars of good wine, and then confessed to Zhu You.
"Okay, you little guy is not bad! I have heard some of your deeds from people below! It is really rare to be able to do nothing with Minqiu!" Zhu You walked around in the hall.
, looked left, then looked again, after hearing Zhu Han’s reply, he happened to walk up to Zhu Han, then stretched out his hand and patted Zhu Han’s shoulder a few times, and said with a smile: “There were natural and man-made disasters in Anping Kingdom in the past few years.
The banditry continues, the fields are harvestless, and the people in the territory are complaining! Little guy, you have made me look good!"
"How dare I take the credit? It's all because of your good management and command, Your Excellency. I just followed your orders and took some action!"
Zhu Han was really not sure what Zhu You wanted to do. After hearing Zhu You's praise, he quickly gave up the credit and planned to test Zhu You's tone first.
"Haha..." Zhu You smiled knowingly after hearing this, turned to Liu Xu, and Zhen Yan chuckled: "Your Majesty, boy from the Zhen family, what did I just say? This little guy is very sensible, how could he do this?
Do something ridiculous like that!"
Liu Xu and Zhen Yan didn't answer after hearing this, they just sat there and sneered a few times.
"cough!"
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhu You felt a little embarrassed. After he coughed twice awkwardly, he happened to see Xi Zhicai walking in from the door. He quickly changed the topic, waved to everyone, and said with a smile: "Wine.
Come, come, come, come, let’s all taste the wine brewed by the little one.”
As soon as the wine entered his throat, Zhu You trembled all over and his eyes became a little blurry. He was playing with the wine bottle and jokingly said to Zhu Han: "I have never drunk such a good wine until now! Little guy, you are a little bit
That’s not kind!”
"This official is extremely frightened to be praised by your lord. Since your lord thinks this wine is delicious, my lord, please drink more today!"
Zhu Han's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, this old boy might be in trouble because he came here for this Drunk Immortal Brew.
"Haha, come on, drink!"
Seeing that Zhu Han was trying to push back and didn't want to climb up the pole, Zhu You didn't expose it to his face. After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, and Zhu You was really conquered by such a delicious wine, he couldn't help but test it out.
Said: "Little guy, I heard that you want to expand the scale of brewing?"
"Xiaoguan had this idea before, but the county was running out of money and had no choice but to put the brewing of Zuixian Brew on hold!"
After hearing these words, Zhu Han didn't know that Zhu You was planning on him. Although he didn't want to do it in every possible way, he was so powerful that he had to make a decision no matter how wronged he was.
The opening allows people to come in.
"It's a coincidence! I still have some money left in my house. How about this, I'll provide the money, and you, little guy, will provide the help. After we make money, let's add two to one and make five. How about this?"
Zhu You was also a master of exploiting every opportunity. Seeing that Zhu Han finally gave in, he quickly expressed his intention to become a shareholder.
"That's a lucky coincidence! I also have some spare money!"
Liu Xu sneered and said.
"Oh! Such fine wine, it really makes people forget to leave! If the Prime Minister and Prince Anping are willing to participate, then how can our Zhen family lag behind others! But please don't worry, my Zhen family's connections are here.
From now on, the wine will definitely sell well in the three states of You, Hebei and Hebei!"
Zhen Yan took over the words and smiled.
Seeing these three people singing a double reed, ah no, a triple reed, Zhu Han knew without guessing that they must have colluded in advance. He smiled wryly and looked at Xi Zhicai next to him, and then
He said quietly: "Since the three of you want to invest in my Zuixian Brewing! I wonder how much money you plan to pay?"
