"Come, come, Master Zhao, I would like to toast you a toast. This poem you wrote is really good."

At the front of the banquet, Zhu Liang, who was very happy to "gain" face from Zhao Zheng, raised his wine glass, completely changed his attitude, and stood in front of Zhao Zheng.

He seemed to be a man with some literary qualities, and he was happy about the poem Zhao Zheng wrote for him.

This is indeed the case. He looks down on literati and even the Zhao family, but how can he be unhappy about something that will make his reputation better?

He was even thinking about asking the master to write this poem and keep it in his home. Maybe after his death, there would be a chance that his name would be passed down through the ages.

Therefore, Zhu Liang's attitude toward Zhao Zheng at this moment was a 180-degree reversal from his previous attitude.

The expression he looked at Zhao Zheng became amiable.

Zhao Zheng looked at Zhu Liang's smile covered with flesh, and stood up with a smile.

He really didn't expect that Zhu Liang really didn't know anything.

The officials in the room slowly fell into deep thought, thinking about the other profound meanings in the poem he had written previously.

You, Zhu Liang, still think you are praising yourself.

Then don't be angry for now.

Zhao Zheng raised his wine glass, thinking that since he didn't know, no matter how cheerful he was, he would be doing his best to let this puppet taste the delicious food.

"General Zhu is welcome."

Zhao Zheng toasted directly.

"Hahahahaha!"

When Zhu Liang saw Zhao Zheng giving him face like this, he drank all the wine in his wine glass in one sip, showing his generosity.

"Now that the wine has been finished, let's talk about cooperation now."

After this glass of wine, Zhu Liang returned to the main seat.

You say he is reckless, but he remembers the theme of today's banquet, which is for everyone to make money together.

Zhao Zheng sat down quietly and watched the development of the situation.

All the officials at the scene stopped thinking when they saw Zhu Liang finally serving tonight's main course.

But what Zhu Liang didn't notice when he started to talk eloquently on the high platform was that at this moment, almost everyone on the scene would secretly glance at Zhao Zheng.

There was a hint of something else in his eyes.

"Everyone, the court's attention is now mainly on the northeast."

"The secondary focus is also due west and southwest."

"So this is a God-given opportunity, allowing us in the southeast to make a big profit!"

"In addition, tonight, we have Master Zhao and Master Qian joining us, so this general decided to do something big at once!"

"What do you think?"

When they heard that they were going to do something big, all the officials at the scene had golden lights in their eyes.

Quickly agree, or look at Zhu Liang expectantly to see what kind of plan he can come up with.

Zhu Liang also changed from his previous reckless demeanor and raised his head with a very reasonable plan.

"Everyone, the imperial court is currently building a cross railway that runs from north to south and east to west. During this period, there is a good opportunity for us to make a lot of money!"

"It just so happens that Mr. Zhao is also here, so everyone should be able to know who proposed this matter, right?"

"That's right, it was proposed by the head of Mr. Zhao's family!"

"Now we have an internal response within us."

"I am supporting it."

"Besides, Mr. Qian will take you to escort him."

"This general can guarantee that as long as we finish our big job this time, everyone can stop doing it."

"After all, everyone knows how much the emperor suppresses people like us right now."

"Even I, the general, in the past, only dared to take the part that I deserved. So, I, the general, have suffered a lot in these years! It's such a scary life for me..."

Hearing Zhu Liang say these words, all the officials at the scene curled their lips inwardly.

What does it mean to only dare to take what you deserve?

For your military exploits before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the rewards the emperor will give you will already be enough to keep your whole family wealthy for eighteen generations.

I just wanted to take advantage of this huge sum of money to hide the news.

But you can think so in your heart, and on the surface, everyone at the scene still nodded.

At the same time, everyone is looking forward to this vote, so-called big enough to stop it.

After all, they all know how ambitious Zhu Liang is.

How big a vote it takes to describe it in his mouth and turn it into a big one.

"Everyone, everyone should be aware of the current allocations for railway construction, labor dispatch, and the court's support to them, and even various tax exemptions, right?"

"Especially Mr. Chen who is at the scene. The railway hub is built near your Suhang Mansion. You should also know the situation best."

"In the meantime, Master Chen may have already made a lot of money without our backs."

As the highest official of the Suhang Mansion, Chen Fuyin smiled sheepishly and shook his head.

He didn't answer directly, but his smile said it all.

And Zhu Liang, who was sitting in the first place, was not angry that he took a bite first.

Because for this cooperation, it was Chen Fuyin who approached him.

One is greedy, and the other is not only greedy, but also ambitious.

So the two hit it off immediately, and they were ready to have a big relationship, and from then on, they would have no worries about food and clothing.

The scale got bigger and bigger, and finally, the news even reached the ears of Qian Shisi, the chief minister of the two governments, who was in the same circle.

Originally, this banquet still required a lot of preparation and confirmation.

After all, when the benefits are great, the risks are even greater.

Although they are all in high positions, they don't have any feelings of fear or fear.

But who knew that the mountain road had eighteen bends, Luo Pan suddenly reported, and Zhao Zheng joined them!

That's why Zhao Zheng was humiliated and tested his sincerity before boarding the ship.

That's why before the banquet started, Zhu Liang took a huge risk, broke his guard into pieces in advance, and sneaked into Qianshu County.

That's why Zhu Liang kept "deliberately" irritating Zhao Zheng at the banquet just now.

Everything is their plan.

However, Zhu Liang and most of the officials at the scene only noticed Qian Fuyin's smile, but not his shaking head.

"Everyone! From Mr. Chen's attitude, everyone should have seen it."

Zhu Liang, who is in the first place, is still planning his beautiful blueprint to make a lot of money.

But Chen Fuyin, who was next to Zhao Zheng, secretly whispered to Zhao Zheng.

"Master Zhao, this official has really never done anything illegal involving railway construction."

"The Chief Assistant came to Suhang in person before, and you should know that."

"I know it."

Zhao Zheng looked at the scene, and other officials with excited faces smiled and nodded, indicating that they were aware.

Could he not know?

All the gentry heads of the Suhang Mansion were surrounded by him in the Baihua Building, and he pressed their heads and voluntarily sent several royal guards to protect them.

Officials are no exception.

But what he didn't want to understand was how the governor managed to leave Jin Yiwei and run so far without leaving a trace.

It seems that you have to use it best for your own people.

And the scene.

Li Qicai reacted from Zhao Zheng's poem just now.

Seeing Zhao Zheng's smile, his hair stood on end instantly.

He quickly ran to Zhu Liang and whispered to him.

Regardless of whether Zhu Liang is happy now.

boom!

"What! Are you saying that Zhao's poem just now was scolding me?"
