Luo Xin shook his head lightly and said: "It's not that serious. Although my current status is far from that of Xu Jie and Gao Gong, I am not easily manipulated by others. Especially Hu Zongxian is close at hand. He can see clearly what happened. He will not be without a little scruples about me.

In fact, Hu Zongxian and Xu Jie's mentality is easy to grasp. Xu Jie saw that I was growing too fast, so he wanted to suppress me.After all, everyone in Daming knows the enmity between me and him, and there is no room for switching between the two of us.If I grow up, even if I don't enter the cabinet, if I just get promoted and return to Beijing, it will be a big threat to him.If I join forces with Gao Gong after returning to Beijing, there is a possibility that he will be squeezed out of the cabinet.So he was afraid, and began to make two-handed preparations.

On the one hand, he promoted Zhang Juzheng to be a bachelor and entered the cabinet.On the other hand, teaming up with Hu Zongxian to set up obstacles for me in the southeast and sabotage all my actions in the southeast is indeed a scheming plan.

Inside, the capital promoted Zhang Juzheng to stabilize the cabinet.And he has indeed achieved his goal, and now Gao Gong has begun to fall into a disadvantage.

Outside, let Hu Zongxian suppress me in Hangzhou.

but……

Hu Zongxian is not Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng is his student, but Hu Zongxian is not.

Hu Zongxian is also a treacherous and cunning person, how could he honestly be Xu Jie's gun? "

"Then...Xu Biao and Hu Ning?" He Nian and Wang Ziren looked at Luo Xin puzzled.

"Hehe..." Luo Xin said with a sneer on his face: "Hu Zongxian wanted to find a backer, and Xu Jie must have given him a guarantee. So the two hit it off. However, Hu Zongxian was also worried about me. So he tried to get his nephew and Xu Biao to do something together to test me. If I can't deal with this matter simply, Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian will think that I'm afraid of them, and then I will will really join forces."

"What if your lord handles the matter cleanly?"

"Headache!" Luo Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said, "My headache is not whether to deal with the two of them, but to what level. Now that Xu Biao and Hu Ning are together, if Xu Biao is dealt with, it will be Hu Ning must be dealt with, and it is okay to make Hu Zongxian jealous of me, but if Hu Zongxian is allowed to hold grudges against me and completely push Hu Zongxian into Xu Jie's camp, then the loss outweighs the gain."

"Then... what should we do?" Anxious expressions appeared on the faces of He Nian and Wang Ziren.

"You continue to monitor the two of them, let me think of a solution slowly, and I can't rush to make a move. Once I make a move, it will be done once and for all."

"Yes, my lord." He Nian hesitated and said again: "My lord, what about Wang Mu's son?"

Luo Xin frowned deeply, sighed for a while, and said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. Since Xu Biao and Hu Ning forced Wang Mu's old wife through Zhang Zuopeng, they still want to get the approval of the Shibo Secretary." As long as the shares are not obtained for a day, Wang Mu's son will not be in danger."

"What if there is danger?" He Nian said a little worriedly.

Luo Xin also sighed in some pain and said, "There is no other way, you can't startle the snake now. You all go back first, let me think about it."

The two of them retreated, their expressions extremely serious.There is still some anxiety in my heart.The two people Luo Xin had to face were too huge.

One is the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the other is the king of the southeast.

If the other fourth-rank officials were against such two giants, He Nian and Wang Ziren would have already panicked.Fortunately, Luo Xin's every move after coming to the southeast happened under the noses of the two of them, and there were many things that the two of them personally participated in.

Whether it was fighting against the six great families at the beginning, conquering Song Danian, or annihilating [-] Japanese pirates, etc., the two of them have seen Luo Xin's ability, which made the two of them flustered, but not so Ma claws.

Moreover, the two of them knew very well in their hearts that the two of them had been bound together with Luo Xin all their lives, and anyone would think that the two of them were Luo Xin's confidantes, and this impression could not be changed.

Luo Xin is fine, they are safe.

When Luo Xin was promoted, they went up with the tide.

Luo Xin was unlucky, and they followed suit.

"Master Wang." He Nian lowered his voice and said, "I leave it to you to detect and monitor Xu Biao and Hu Ning, you are better than me."

"Okay, Mr. He, don't worry." Wang Ziren nodded.Then he asked, "What about you?"

"The magistrate of Chun'an County is my friend. I'll ask him to find out about the situation and try my best to save Wang Mu's son." He Nian said with worry between his brows.

"My lord, you have to be careful, don't your friend sell you out, and now you are harming Wang Mu's son."

"No, his old friend and I for many years, I think it was the same year when we took the township examination, but in the end he didn't pass the Jinshi examination. When he became the county magistrate, I also contributed a little bit. In his When I was not the county magistrate, I helped him many times, he is not an ungrateful person."

Wang Ziren pondered for a while and said, "I think it's best to tell your lord about this matter. With your wisdom, you should do better."

"Okay!" He Nian did his best, turned around and walked towards Luo Xin's study, while Wang Ziren was busy arranging to monitor Xu Biao and Hu Ning.

As soon as He Nian entered the second hall, he saw Lu Daqing coming out of it, and said to Lu Daqing:

"Daqing, can my lord be in the study?"

"Yes, yes." Lu Daqing nodded and said, "Do you want me to inform you?"

"work on your businesses."

He Nian shook his head, then went straight to Luo Xin's study, came to the door and said: "My lord, please see me in the New Year."

The door opened, Luo Xin stood inside, looked at He Nian and said, "Come in."

He Nian entered the study and closed the door with his backhand.Turning to Luo Dao: "My lord, I have a good friend who is the magistrate in Chun'an County, I think..."

He Nian introduced his thoughts and his friend, and then looked at Luo Xin expectantly.Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said:

"what is his name?"

"Cao Zhuo."

"Is he a Juren?"

"Yes!"

"Go and talk to him." Luo Xin made a decision immediately: "Promise to him, after this matter is over, Zhang Zuopeng's county magistrate will definitely not be able to do it anymore, and the magistrate's position will be reserved for him."

"He's the county magistrate?" He Nian opened his mouth wide in surprise, "He's just a Juren!"

"What's wrong with Juren?" Luo Xin said lightly: "Don't forget, the Hai Ruihai Penholder sitting in the prison in the capital is also a Juren. It's not impossible for Juren to become an official, but it's more difficult and very difficult. It's hard to be a high official. But it's just a county magistrate, so there's no problem. I'll just tell His Majesty, and His Majesty will give me face."

Luo Xin really wasn't bragging, now that Emperor Jiajing was using him, Emperor Jiajing would not refuse to give him the face of a small seventh-rank county magistrate.Hearing the New Year's greetings here, I was overjoyed:
"My lord, with this promise, Cao Zhuo will definitely rely on you."

"First." Luo Xin said seriously: "When you meet him, you must keep it secret, so that no one can find out."

"Your Majesty understands."

"Second, when necessary, for the sake of An Cao Zhuo's heart, I can meet him, but it must be kept secret."

"Xiaguan understands, Xiaguan will go now."

"Well, be careful."

Not long after He Nian left, Lu Daqing returned.Luo Xin said softly, "Is everything arranged?"

"En!" Lu Daqing nodded and said, "The Escort Bureau arranged for four Jianghu people to guard around Wang Mu's house to protect Wang Mu's wife."

"That's fine."

In the next few days, news from Wang Ziren and the Escort continued to reach Luo Xin's case. Luo Xin became more and more angry. Occupying [-]% ​​of the shares, the five major families each occupying [-]% of the shares, small and medium-sized merchants divided up [-]% of the shares, and the remaining [-]% of the shares let Luo Xin take out half of the shares, half of the half, that is, the remaining [-]% A quarter of the [-]% belonged to him, of course he got it as Lu Tingjiang, and a quarter of the [-]% was given to Hu Zongxian.The other half of the remaining [-]% was sold publicly and sold to retail investors.In other words, what Xu Biao and Hu Ning are buying now is this half of the shares.

When Luo Xin was angry, from the intelligence point of view, Xu Biao and Hu Ning had almost acquired half of the shares at this time. How many tricks did they have to use to get these shares?I'm afraid every bit of stake is stained with blood.

However, Luo Xin was even more annoyed that, apart from Wang Mu, among those retail investors, none of them reported to the official, which not only made Luo Xin unable to restrain himself from scolding.

"They are all bloodless people who fear Xu Jie like a tiger and deserve it."

"Just next..."

Luo Xin frowned slightly. Since Xu Biao and Hu Ning took over half of the shares so smoothly, and whether they did anything, they would definitely continue. On the one hand, greed was at work, on the other On the one hand, Hu Zongxian and Xu Jie also want to further test their bottom line.

But Xu Biao and Hu Ning will face those small and medium merchants in the next step. Those people are not retail investors. They have seen some market more or less, and they all have a little background. how?

Will these small and medium-sized businesses revolt in anger?
"If they resist, I have a chance to punish them. But..."

Thinking of Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian, the two great gods, Luo Xin couldn't help feeling depressed.In the southeast region, Xu Jie's words may not be easy to use, but Hu Zongxian's words are absolutely easy to use.When those small and medium-sized merchants saw Xu Biao and Hu Ning appear together, who would have the courage to resist?
"This is really tricky!" Luo Xin shook his head and said, "It's not enough to pretend to be deaf and dumb now. There is no chance of counterattack right now, so we can only defend passively. It's just this passive defense, Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian Seeing my own reality, I am afraid that there will be a bigger storm next."

However, at this time, Luo Xin could no longer control so much, and immediately shouted to the door:

"Daqing."

"Master Hou!" Lu Daqing appeared at the door.

"Go and invite the heads of the five great families to meet me."

"Yes, Lord Hou!"

Lu Daqing retreated and left, Luo Xin's gaze became bitter, once he started to defend himself, but he couldn't come up with a good solution, Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian's temptation to him would turn into a real attack.With Luo Xin's current strength in Daming, it is not enough to resist the alliance between Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian. At this moment, Luo Xin feels that he has encountered the greatest danger in his life, even more dangerous than when he was in the grassland.

The Patriarchs of the Five Great Families soon came to Luo Xin's study, seeing the expressions on the faces of the Patriarchs of the Five Great Families, Luo Xin's heart sank, and he said in a concentrated voice:
"Everyone, have you heard some rumors recently?"

The patriarchs of the five great aristocratic families froze, and Lu Ding asked tentatively, "My lord, did you ask Xu Biao and Hu Ning about the acquisition of shares in Daming Maritime?"

Luo Xin didn't say anything, but just glanced at the five people with burning eyes, and the faces of the five people became embarrassed, and their eyes wandered.Luo Xin said lightly:

"Tell me, what do you think?"

"We..." The five people exchanged glances, and finally Lu Ding said: "My lord, we can't afford to mess with these two people. Fortunately, they are just buying shares from some retail investors. And our shares are in the establishment of the sea. When it was a trading company, it was clearly stipulated that it was not allowed to sell to outsiders. If anyone sells, the shares will be taken back automatically. If Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian can’t threaten us, let those retail investors buy them.”

Luo Xin's gaze became gloomy, and he said coldly: "Do you think that Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian will be satisfied with buying some retail investors' shares? They have already bought seventy-seven or eighty-seven shares of retail investors, and they will soon buy those small and medium-sized merchants. Let's do it."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin paused and said: "You will say, even if they bought the shares of those small and medium-sized merchants, so what? The big head is still with us. I don't know if you have calculated it, but the Shibo Division only holds two shares. You each occupy one share, and the rest have three shares. If Xu Jie and the Hu family buy all the shares of retail investors and small and medium-sized merchants, they will take three shares, surpassing any of ours.

In order to avoid the government's hand, Daming Marine Trade was too long and destroyed the future of Daming Marine Trade. That's why I agreed with Shibo Division to occupy [-]% of the share, and let the five of you occupy a total of [-]% of the share.Moreover, it is stipulated that all transactions of Daming Maritime Trade must go through the shareholders' meeting, and the minority must obey the majority.Think about it, if the Xu family and the Hu family accounted for three of the members, and then threatened and lured three of the five of you, then who would have the final say on the Daming Maritime Trade Company?
Don't tell me you won't get along. Luo Xin waved his hand, stopped Lu Ding and the others and said, "No one can say for sure what will happen in the future. Everyone will have weaknesses. When that time comes, your weaknesses will be grasped by Xu Jie and Hu Zongxian, and you will also have to succumb."A good Shibosi, a golden basin for money-making, will be brought to the Xu family and the Hu family.
