lied to Kangxi

Chapter 686
Zhu Shi created momentum for a long time, but his work was in vain.

This embarrassing scene was seen and remembered by the entire Zhejiang officialdom.

Don't look at Yuzhu's youthful appearance, it's really not easy to mess with!
The governor openly had conflicts, and the officials below, who would dare to stand up without authorization?
So, after receiving the wind banquet, we had a lonely drink, and broke up unhappy.

After Yuzhu returned to Xingyuan, he had just changed his clothes and was about to tell Xuewei a story when Wu Jiang came to report.

"My lord, Shengyuan, the grain storeman of Zhejiang Province, came to visit overnight. This is the name card he handed over. Please have a look." Wu Jiang held the name card in both hands, and carefully handed it to Yuzhu.

Although Yu Zhu was young, he had also served as governor of Pianyuan and governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi. It can be said that he had been sealed off for two terms.

Unlike Jiangsu Province, Zhejiang's terrain, with many mountains and little cultivated land, is naturally unfavorable to the small-scale peasant economy.

Therefore, Zhejiang people are especially good at doing business.

The Jiajing pirates in the Ming Dynasty, in fact, many pirates were fake Japanese, real Han people.

These Zhejiang locals would rather pretend to be Japanese pirates and come here to harm their own people, just to stop the Ming Dynasty's policy of banning the sea.

In a word, the sea ban policy has seriously damaged the interests of many big landlords and big bureaucrats in Zhejiang.

As early as the pre-Ming Dynasty, the silk weaving industry in Hangzhou and Suzhou already had the embryonic state of capitalism.

Zhejiang is not a major grain province, and the importance of its grain storage roads is far less than that of Jiangsu Duliang Road.

However, after Yuzhu uttered harsh words in public, among the officials who would be unlucky, Zhejiang Grain Storage Road was the first to bear the brunt.

The grain storage road, responsible for the purchase, transportation and storage of grain, is a well-known super fat shortage.

However, when the war resumes, the Grain Storage Road has an obligation to transport military rations to the front line with guaranteed quality and quantity.

Yu Zhu didn't read the name post, but asked Wu Jiang, "Are you generous?"

Wu Jiang lowered his waist, and replied in a low voice: "Master Hui, this Wang Daotai is very generous, and directly stuffed 50 taels of silver bills." He took out the silver bills in his sleeve and gently placed them on the table.

Yu Zhu glanced at the bank note, then at Wu Jiang, and said flatly, "It's still the old regulations, you understand."

Seeing that Yuzhu was not angry, Wu Jiang was relieved immediately, and said with a smile: "I understand, the bank note will be returned, and I will send him away."

Yu Zhu nodded, and taught Wu Jiang with a smile: "The eyelids can't be too shallow. It's only 50 taels, and you can be bribed. Is this sending a beggar?"

Wu Jiang said with a smile: "The young one understands the rules. After accepting the bank note, he must do something. If he doesn't accept it, just tell him clearly that the matter is not trivial."

Yu Zhu smiled slightly, waved his hand, and let Wu Jiang go down.

People in the officialdom must follow the Romans.

These days, if officials who come to visit the governor do not bribe the servants of the governor's office, it is impossible to see the true Buddha.

Yuzhu hadn't mastered the big politics yet, so he must be embarrassed to act independently, so he also acquiesced to the people below, and came to report the news after receiving the bag.

However, Yu Zhu's bottom line is that no matter who it is, as long as they accept the door bag, they must tell him.

After Wu Jiang went down, Yuzhu began to tell stories to Xuewei.

Yuzhu told five stories in a row, Xuewei clapped her hands happily, and shouted: "Daddy, it's really well told."

Looking at the smiling daughter, Yuzhu's mood was somewhat complicated.

Alas, the eldest daughter is so innocent, you have to choose carefully the son-in-law you will find in the future.

"Cough, baby, it's getting late, you should go to bed." Taking the opportunity of Yu Zhu to drink tea, Alice interjected to drive her daughter away.

Yu Zhu turned her head to look, but saw Alice's beautiful big eyes rippling with boundless water marks.

Ghost woman, the more you fight, the braver you are, it's really a headache!
After a night of fun, Yuzhu slept until the sun was drying her buttocks, and then slowly got up.

When it was time for breakfast, the concierge came to report that Wang Shengyuan, the grain storekeeper, was already outside, and had waited for more than two hours.

Yuzhu thought to himself, this Wang Daotai is not just greedy for life and afraid of death!
After waiting for so long, didn't it come before dawn?
"Yes, I see." Yuzhu buried her head in the porridge without even raising her head.

Alice is a typical wife in the outer room. According to Western sayings, she is the mistress of Yuzhongtang.

Alice, who has been staying in Dagukou, Tianjin, has always kept the British living and eating habits because she is far away from the capital.

In other words, she never learned how to serve men.

By Yuzhu's side, there is never a shortage of people to serve her, and she doesn't care about Alice's unvirtuousness.

What was more inconsistent was that Xuewei was sitting on Yuzhu's right hand, holding a knife and fork to deal with the food on the plate.

British cuisine not only has few varieties, but also is difficult to eat.

Yuzhu felt sorry for her daughter who was suffering outside, so she specially spent a lot of money to hire several French court chefs to serve Xuewei in Tianjin.

After breakfast, Yu Zhu changed into casual clothes and went out with Zhou Quan.

When he was leaving the gate, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a fourth-rank official uniform, sitting listlessly on a long bench in front of the gate.

Yuzhu's appearance is very outstanding, it can be said that he is handsome and outstanding.

The middle-aged man stared at Yuzhu, took a few deep glances, hesitated for a long time, suddenly got up and ran over, knelt down in front of Yuzhu, and said in a trembling voice: "Zhejiang Grain Chudao, lowly Wang Shengyuan, see you Lord Zhongtangyu."

From the bottom of her heart, Yuzhu looked down on Wang Shengyuan.

Nothing else, Yuzhu just hates his greed for life and fear of death, and his shameless behavior.

Yuzhu acted as if he didn't see Wang Shengyuan, and walked outside.

Zhou Quan's heart moved slightly, he took the initiative to stop, helped Wang Shengyuan who was ashen-faced, and said with a smile: "My lord, you are too reckless. My family hates people who are greedy for life and fear of death the most in my life, and they are as clean as water. understand?"

"May I ask your old Gao's name?" No matter how stupid Wang Shengyuan was, he could tell that someone who could go out side by side with Yuzhu was absolutely extraordinary.

"Hehe, my surname is Zhou, and I'm Mr. Xixi, who was personally hired by my Dong Weng." Zhou Quan deliberately revealed a little tone, just to see if this Wang Daotai is really smart?
Wang Shengyuan's eyes lit up suddenly, and he sent out the invitation happily: "I have admired Mr. Zhou's name for a long time, and I have prepared a table of bouillon and noodles. I also ask you, the old man, to show respect." He said a lot of flattery.

Zhou Quan shook his head and said, "My family is an upright gentleman. He once restrained us and the people around us from having banquets without authorization."

Seeing that Zhou Quan wanted to leave, Wang Shengyuan would not let go of this golden opportunity, so he grabbed his sleeve and forced a bank note in.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, it was impossible for Zhou Quan to take out the banknote and take the initiative to return it to Wang Shengyuan.

That's too conspicuous, and it's easy to cause trouble for Yuzhu.

"Master Wang, you have done a good job, you still need to persevere." Zhou Quan took the money, and naturally wanted to help others to eliminate disasters, so he took the initiative to pass on a message.

As for whether he can comprehend it, it all depends on Wang Shengyuan's good luck.

In the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty, the bigger the official, the less likely it is to leave a story behind, and the more vague and general the speech.

This forced the subordinate officials to figure it out secretly before prescribing the right medicine.
