Rivers and lakes rich man

Chapter 273
Those who don't know will definitely feel that transferring Fang Jing away from the Mingzhou government will weaken his power.

Wei Jiading couldn't stop laughing at this, those people thought too well.

The strength of Fang's firm does not depend on Wu Linwei's power, it really depends on Fang respecting himself.

So after leaving the Thousand Households Office, Fang Jing had little influence.

Now that Fang Jing's official position has been promoted by half a level, with his ability, he might come back after a while.

The Wei family must have embraced Fang's firm as a thigh, he is not stupid.

In addition to the people from the Fang's firm, there are also several principals in the chamber of commerce.

They wanted to go to Luoyang, the capital city, to have a look, and there were some things that Fang Jing couldn't make a face for, so they let them do it.

After all, Wang Xiyue is a woman, and Fang Jing has an official position. Sometimes it is not serious enough to let the people below come forward. They are the principals of the chamber of commerce, and their status is generally enough.

This is what Fang Jing meant.

Zhu Shenglong, the vice president, will definitely not be able to travel far, and neither will Shi Liusheng, who is still in Lingnan County.

Fang Jing has already contacted him, and when he arrives at Hangzhou Mansion, he will bring Tang Wenzhong from the Tang Family Company with him.

Tang Wenzhong is now the spokesperson for the Hangzhou firm, and more importantly, he has some connections in Luoyang.

Fang Jing and his party set off from Mingzhou Mansion, first went by land to Hangzhou Mansion, and then took the canal and waterway to Luoyang by boat.

On the bright side, Liang Xunkuan is in charge of the guards. He is now a master of the realm, and his subordinates are people from the Jianghu who are recruited.

There are a total of more than 100 guards. Even without Liang Xunkuan, a master of the situation, no one with such strength would dare to make a move.

Peerless Realm is definitely a master in the arena.

Four days later, the group boarded a boat at the canal wharf in Hangzhou Prefecture and set off for the capital.

The group was divided into five boats. The boats were much smaller than sea boats, and they mainly moved forward by manual oars. If there was wind, they could also use sails to rely on the wind to move forward.

In fact, there are also large ships in the canal, that is, the kind of luxurious high-rise ships that can be five stories high and magnificent.

Such boats are generally not enough to rely on oars, and a large number of trackers must be used to pull them along the shore.

I think that when the emperor visited the south, he took such a dragon boat.

Nowadays, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries travel, and they also use such high-rise ships. I don't know how much money it will cost for a trip.

For the trackers, many of the girls saw them for the first time, even if Wang Xiyue had heard of them before, it was also the first time they actually saw them with their own eyes.

The trackers on the shore shouted loudly and struggled to drag the boat forward.

The girls didn't pay much attention, the trackers were usually shirtless.

"Water transportation on the river is roughly like this." Tang Wenzhong explained to everyone, "There is a lot of grain on the boat, and it is very heavy. It is difficult for the boat to move forward without being dragged by the tracker."

Most of the ships on the river are cargo ships, and the slightly larger cargo ships have a large cargo capacity, so they have to be pulled by trackers.

Unlike the boat that Fang Jing and the others were on, they were only carrying people, so they didn't need them.

It is very hard for the trackers, but they can barely make ends meet in this way, otherwise the family will starve to death.

Tang Wenzhong was very knowledgeable, and he made up a lot of stories and allusions along the river and banks, which made the women listen with great interest.

Fang Jing learned more about Tang Wenzhong.

The Tang family business has been in contact with the capital since his grandfather's generation, so when Tang Wenzhong was young, he often went back and forth on this canal, and it is not surprising to know this.

It is precisely because of this that Tang Wenzhong has many contacts in the capital.

These are what Fang Jing needs now, so that the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce can open up the situation in the capital better and faster.

Tang Wenzhong naturally agreed with Fang Jing's plan to march into the capital.

It took nearly a hundred years for his Tang family to barely have a foothold in the capital, that is, to have some reputation in a small circle.

Compared with those big forces in the capital, it is far behind, and it is completely unpopular.

He is very clear that the main reason is that his Tang family firm is too weak, and it is impossible to go further.

When he was old, he had some doubts in his heart whether the juniors could keep the family business.

Before that, he had thought of giving up the property in the capital and returning his mind to Hangzhou Mansion.

Here, even if the younger generation has no skills, at least the locals should be able to keep the family business.

It is best to join the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce now, and I can be regarded as a member of the Chamber of Commerce, and then I will be able to share a lot of benefits.

In particular, Fang Jing still needs to rely on the strength of his Tang family firm in the capital. It can be said that the importance of the Tang family firm will be greatly improved in the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce.

This is also the reason why when he heard that Fang Jing was going to Beijing, he wanted to accompany him in person regardless of his age.

As long as I can make good use of it this time, I believe that Fang Jing will not treat his Tang family business badly in the future.

Even if I am gone, I can leave more things for my children and grandchildren.

The group of people was not in a hurry to hurry, they stopped and stopped, and if there were beautiful scenery along the coast, everyone would get off the boat to have a look. After all, they brought several women with them, and it was too boring to stay on the boat all the time.

A month later, he arrived in Luoyang.

There was no trouble on the way, and even if there were officers and soldiers patrolling, Fang Jing's identity as a thousand households of martial arts guards was still very useful.

After showing the identity token, the journey was unimpeded.

He is still a thousand households now, and he will change the token of the deputy envoy when he arrives in Luoyang.

Luoyang City has already purchased a house, but Fang Jing and the others don't need to stay in an inn.

Even if not, there are still some houses on Tang Wenzhong's side.

"Young master, when are you going to direct the Yamen to report?" Zi Yan asked, "Master Wei heard that you are going to Beijing, and is planning to come and visit in person."

The Master Wei that Ziyan was talking about was none other than Wei Zhengdong, the former prefect of Mingzhou Prefecture.

After he became an official in Beijing, Fang Jing prepared a house for him in Luoyang, which was not too big or too small, in line with his status.

Some time ago, on his mother's birthday, the house deed was transferred as a congratulatory gift.

Even if this kind of thing is known by the court, it will not be pursued too much.

Wei Zhengdong still remembered Fang Jing's kindness in his heart.

Hearing that Fang Jing has also come to Luoyang, he naturally wants to visit.

Ziyan is in charge of news and intelligence, so she is naturally aware of these things.

In fact, the residence here was prepared together when Wei Zhengdong was preparing the house.

At that time, they slowly began to deploy in Luoyang, set up a semicolon, and arranged their own troops. They didn't want to make money, but mainly to listen to the wind and grass in Luoyang.

"Let's go tomorrow." Fang Jing said, "I believe that many people should know about our entry into the city. Go there early so that no one will cause trouble. Mr. Wei, you can send someone to talk about it tomorrow. By the way, Master Wei is now serving as a doctor in the Ministry of Officials, right?"

"Yes." Ziyan smiled, "The Ministry of Officials is a good place. I heard that Mr. Wei was appreciated by the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he is highly regarded. He is a celebrity."
