......

The summer of the 16th year of enlightenment.

Suhang Mansion, Suzhou City.

Baihua Building.

"Master Shoufu! The official is late, please forgive me!"

Li Qian, governor of Suzhou and Hangzhou, led a large group of local rich gentry and merchants in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and finally arrived.

Li Qian began to plead guilty as soon as he entered the door.

But the owners of those wealthy gentry and merchants were looking left and right.

"When did the first floor of Baihua Building become like this?"

"Where's the chair? Where's the table?"

"What about the singers on the stage?"

Swish!

Seeing their rudeness, Jiang Xian drew his knife directly.

"Master Shoufu, how dare you be rude in person!"

The owners of these wealthy gentry and merchants came back to their senses.

"Please forgive me, Lord Chief Assistant!"

"Min, wait, I have met Master Shoufu!"

"All right, all right, don't say forgiveness, Zhao doesn't care about these vain things."

There was the only chair on the stage, and Zhao Zheng sat on it and waved his hand.

"Hurry up and thank Mr. Chief Assistant!"

"Thank you, Master Shoufu!"

Li Qian looked at the knife, only to notice the rudeness of the gentry and merchants behind him, and quickly turned around to signal them to express his thanks to Zhao Zheng.

I'm afraid that they will be ignorant, offend Jin Yiwei to death, and finally blame himself.

"Hehe, Master Li seems to have a good relationship with them."

Zhao Zheng couldn't help laughing when he saw this kind of appearance that seemed to be under his leadership.

This Li Qian is a bit interesting, and the Suhang Mansion is also interesting, and the owners of these wealthy gentry and merchants are even more interesting.

The power of the Zhao Mansion and the hat of the first assistant officer on his head are actually useless here.

Inexplicably, Zhao Zheng thought of Liu Gong.

Why was Liu Ji so feared by Emperor Zhu Chongba in the past few years.

It's not because the scholar Lin in Suzhou, Hangzhou, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, no matter whether he agrees or not, he thinks he is the leader of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang faction.

something.

"Master Chief Assistant, please forgive me!"

"The non-officials have a good relationship with the Patriarchs. It is because the Patriarchs are in Suzhou and Hangzhou and actively participate in various local affairs on weekdays, so they are used to treating each other as equals."

"I also hope that Master Shoufu will forgive their rudeness."

Li Qian broke out in a little sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly reported the actual situation of Suhang Mansion to Zhao Zheng.

"Forgiveness? Forgiveness?"

"Hahaha, good good!"

When Zhao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but want to applaud.

Suzhou and Hangzhou are familiar, and the world is full.

However, he heard something from this Li Fuyin's mouth.

The local affairs are not all decided by the government, but also depend on the faces of these patriarchs.

This prefect is really good.

"Li Fuyin, do you know why Zhao went south to Suzhou and Hangzhou to summon all the local gentry and business owners?"

Zhao Zheng leaned forward on the stage and asked Li Qian with a smile.

"Yes... what kind of job..."

However, Li Qian did not answer clearly at the first time.

"Fu Yin, it's for project cooperation."

"Looking back, Master Fu, it's for engineering cooperation!"

After being reminded by the nearest local gentry patriarch, Li Qiancai finally fully answered Zhao Zheng's purpose for going south.

However, before Zhao Zheng went south, it was clearly a private document.

It's not the official list posted.

Zhao Zheng glanced at Jiang Xian next to him, mainly because he glanced at the clothes on his body, and couldn't help laughing in his heart.

"General Jiang, go and take back all the local Jinyiwei generals, they probably won't be able to find anything."

"What do you think?"

boom!

Jiang Xian trembled with fear, and quickly pleaded guilty with a one-knee military salute.

"Master Chief Assistant, please come down! This is Jin Yiwei's dereliction of duty!"

"Why don't you go quickly? Let everyone come here, come to Baihualou!"

The people in the audience didn't know what happened to the two people on the stage, they were all watching silently.

"Yes!"

Jiang Xian quickly motioned to his subordinates to withdraw the previous order.

Then, Zhao Zhengcai finally stood up from the chair.

Facing the gentry and patriarchs of the Suhang Mansion, and Li Fu Yin.

He decided to play with these people seriously,

......

"Everyone, do you know what the project cooperation is for?"

despair!despair!

Zhao Zheng was pacing on the stage, and the people in the audience were shaking their heads. They were expressing that they didn't know, and they seemed to be intoxicated by Zhao Zheng's performance.

"It's for the sake of everyone's fame through the ages, and I'm here to make a fortune!"

Zhao Zheng didn't mind either, and continued to reveal a corner of his original plan to them.

"As for how to leave a name through the ages and make a fortune?"

"According to His Majesty's will, the Ministry of Households specially approved the money!"

"I am going to build an inner subway line with Hanyang City as the center!"

"And the Patriarchs of the Suhang Mansion are the partners chosen by Zhao!"

"The world is too big, the imperial court wants to benefit the people! Let the prosperous age be more prosperous!"

"What do you all think?"

After Zhao Zheng finished speaking, the audience exploded.

Make money!

The imperial court wants to benefit the people!

"We're going to get rich!"

"Don't worry, what if there is a fraud? Think about it, since ancient times, has there been a court to give benefits to the people?"

"But His Majesty has issued an order, and Zhao Shoufu also said it himself, so you won't be lying?"

"Or your shop is not as big as mine."

"Master Shoufu! Caomin would like to ask, what exactly is the cooperation charter between the imperial court and us?"

Some smart people raised their hands.

"Relief with work, sub-contracting!"

"Zhao guarantees that everyone at the scene can drink this bowl of broth!"

Zhao Zheng explained with his hands behind his back.

"Then how do we make a profit?"

The gentry and family owners below were all excited, but there were still smart and cautious people who continued to ask questions.

"During the construction of the railway, the income of each family will be exempted from tax for three years, and the tax will be reduced by [-]% after that!"

"Everyone should be a hero in the mall, you should understand what this means, right?"

The corner of Zhao Zheng's mouth curled up into a smile, and he looked at the owners of these rich gentry and merchants in the audience.

"What! Tax exemption for three years, after which the tax will be reduced by [-]%! Isn't that even lower than the commercial tax in Fengyang City!"

"Don't get too excited. Did you hear Zhao Shoufu say that when the railway is built, the court will allocate money?"

"No... yes! Isn't it true that all the money is paid by us, so even if the tax is exempted for three years and the tax is reduced by [-]%, can we still make money?"

"Yes, it's just not many, but it's better than a long stream of water."

"Then do you want to do it at home?"

"After we go back, let's discuss it together."

The Patriarchs below are all good at making money, and they immediately sniffed out how to make money among them.

"Everyone, come back to Baihualou tomorrow and give Zhao an answer."

"Zhao will not drink tea with everyone."

"Thank you, Master Shoufu!"

What came out of the Holy Mansion was different, and they gave us time to think about it!

Everyone at the scene was still discussing on the spot.

Hearing this, I was immediately happy.

This time, they are extremely sincere.

Li Qian also breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave.

"Lord Li stay here!"

Li Qian froze.

turn around.

"Yes......"

......

"Master Li, please explain, are you an official, or are those Patriarchs officials?"

"Zhao really didn't expect that the Suzhou-Hangzhou Mansion would dare to be the first in the world. The imperial court has just started the unified governance of monarchs and ministers. Here, it has been upgraded to the unified governance of officials and businessmen."

"Big... my lord..."

"Tired."

Zhao Zheng took the tea that the shop waiter carefully handed over, smiled, and then looked at Li Qian from the stage.

Just at this moment, the Jinyiwei from the entire Suzhou-Hangzhou Mansion also arrived.

The light in the lobby of Baihualou was squeezed out.

boom!

Li Qian opened his mouth, unable to say why, he could only plop down on his knees.

"The subordinate dare not."

"Don't you dare, or don't you want to? Li Fuyin, Mr. Zhao just asks you one more question, do you want to take back your power?"
