Chapter 1144: Disaster
Shi Huai was dry, "Well, it's a coincidence."
What a coincidence, I have worked with you, and I have been old foxes. Who doesn’t know who, and there is no such coincidence, thinking about the other party’s intentions in my mind.
Yu Shi noticed it when he came, his face froze, and soon returned to normal, "It turns out that I've made more than just an appointment."
When Gu Ren turned around, he had already checked. The foreign envoy had no problem with his identity. He smiled and said, "I just met him, so I came here to sit down."
Shi Huai smiled, "We made an appointment to go and listen to the opera."
Meaning Gu Ren, you can leave now.
Gu Ren, "I happen to be fine, together?"
Shi Huai didn't plan to take him with him. He listened to his son's words now, and no one was willing to look back at the past. He didn't want people to talk about his son's origin because of him.
Yu Shi said, "Okay, I like to listen to opera the most, together."
Shi Huai was stunned for a moment, and Yu Shi quickly explained, "I will settle in the capital in the future and have a controlled merchant under my command, so I want to know more about what business is better in the north and south."
Shi Huai thought about it and then agreed. Gu Ren's eyes lit up slightly and he smiled: "That's right. Our Gu family has been doing business traveling around the world, and there are also marine trade."
Yu Shi smiled, "Then I need to listen more."
The palace and the southwest border have already started fighting. The emperor is so dark and bullying too much.
Xiao Qing stepped forward, "The last batch of food and grass has been transported to the southwest."
Li Zhao also had a cold face, "According to the army's itinerary, it will take another day to arrive."
The government hall was quiet, and there was constant friction in the southwest. We rushed to the capital. The capital had already prepared food and grass and mobilized troops as fast as possible, but it was still slow.
Zhou Shuren was bleeding. The war was full of money, and he had a headache. There were many mountains and forests in the southwest, the terrain was complex, and there were many ambushings in depth. In fact, it was quite difficult to fight. The roads were blocked and the mountain roads were rugged. The transportation of food and grass remained unchanged, so it was not easy to destroy them.
Zhou Shuren thought about the medical department that was assigned from the Imperial Hospital a few days ago and allocated a sum of money from the Ministry of Revenue, which cost a lot this year.
Another thing I thought about the memorials in the court was that I wanted a lot of money.
With the emperor's arrangements one after another, the ministers left the Political Hall half an hour later.
Xiao Qing straightened his waist, "You have been in the Ministry of Revenue for some years."
Zhou Shuren turned his head, "Yes, it's been four years this year."
Xiao Qing's steps were a little lighter, "The life was so fast."
Finally, he was about to give up completely. Starting this year, the emperor has rarely interfered in the government except for major events. Those who know it know that this is a transition and the prince is about to ascend the throne, especially the emperor has hinted at him.
Zhou Shuren also felt a little moved. It was indeed very soon. In a blink of an eye, he was alone in the Ministry of Revenue.
Two days later, someone from the Shi family visited him, but Shi Huai didn't expect Gu Ren to come, "Why are you here?"
Gu Ren, "I can't wait for your invitation, I can only come to my house myself."
Shi Huai thought of the inquiry sent by his daughter-in-law just now, and squinted his eyes, "Our family is no longer a businessman."
Gu Ren said: "I know, I also know that your son is in the Ministry of Revenue's Commerce Department, so he has something to ask for."
Shi Huai knew that his son had always been careful when he became an official. He was looked down upon because of his background and was afraid that he would be caught. "You go back."
"It's not a waste of help. I'm here with sincerity, look."
As he said that, Gu Ren opened the box with thick silver notes in it, "I know your Shi family still has some wealth. Here is 100,000 taels. Although it is not much, it can still help you clear the relationship above."
Shi Huai felt a little cold. Such a big deal must be very demanding, "We can't help."
"Don't worry, I just hope your son can help us register and cover it up."
Shi Huai still shook his head, "No, no."
Gu Ren didn't expect to succeed in one go. He knew that Shi Qing had become an official and naturally had to be careful. "You think about it first, I will come again."
In fact, he can look for Zhang Yang, but he has already shown up, but he can't use Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang is too deliberate to come forward. It's good that Zhang Yang continues to love beauty now.
The Zhou family, Zhulan, her elder brother and sister-in-law sent Yang Wen away. Yang Wen's vacation ended early and the marriage has not yet been settled.
Yang Zhumu, “What’s this called?”
Zhulan said: "Yang Wen is still young and doesn't hurry, it's time to wait a little longer."
Yang Zhumu sighed, "Your sister-in-law and I came for him. Forget it, Yang Wen is not in the capital, so we have returned, but this child's marriage depends on you. I trust your vision."
Zhulan knew that the eldest brother wanted Yang Wen to settle in the capital, and the Yang family's house in the capital was given to Yang Wen, "Brother trusts me, I will definitely do it."
Yang Zhumu, "Then we will pack up."
Zhulan was reluctant to leave, "You and your sister-in-law should stay for more days."
Mrs. Yang, "I can't worry about my family, and I'm all over the country!"
There are not many bamboo orchids to stop them.
In the evening, Shi Qing came back, and Shi Huai didn't dare to hide it. He said the matter during the day, feeling a little nervous, "I didn't agree, I didn't answer."
Shi Qing's eyes lit up and he really took the bait. "Dad, you will pick you up when you come back in the future."
Shi Huai was stunned, “Ah?”
Shi Qing said: "I am not greedy for money, you will know in the future."
Shi Huai frowned, "It's not easy for the Shi family to have today, so don't go any wrong path."
Shi Qing was complicated in her heart, "I know it in my heart."
Shi Huai was still worried, but his son's attitude was firm. He moved the corners of his mouth and regretted his death.
Two more days later, Zhou Shuren stood at the entrance of the household department and sent away the Minister of War who came to collect the money. He turned around and was surprised, "Why are you out?"
Shi Qing said: "I have met the master, and I am here to wait for others."
Zhou Shuren was about to say who to wait for when a carriage stopped and a man came down from above.
Gu Ren got off the carriage and was stunned, "Mr. Shi, who is this?"
Shi Qing didn't want to say much, because Lord Zhou was too smart and Shi Qing didn't know at all, and Zhou Shuren knew everything.
Shi Qing introduced, "This is Lord Zhou, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue."
The smile on Gu Ren's face froze. Lord Zhou, he didn't kill him several times. This was the first time he saw Lord Zhou. So he looked like this?
Gu Ren hurriedly restrained his expression and said earnestly: "I have met Mr. Shi."
Zhou Shuren stopped leaving and asked Shi Qing, "This?"
Shi Qing gritted his teeth and introduced, "This is my father's former partner. Today I'm asking me to help register."
Zhou Shuren's eyes were deeper, so this person was a member of the Zhang clan. Looking closely, he really didn't look like the emperor, and that's right, the fourth uncle said that Zhang Xiaowu looked like his mother.
Gu Ren was puzzled, and Zhou Shuren withdrew his gaze, turned to Shi Qing and said, "You can be busy."
Gu Ren's heart skipped a beat and felt that things were not going well today. Since meeting Zhou Shuren with him, there would be no good things. In the Zhang family, Zhou Shuren is a disaster star. He hurriedly took out a thick purse from his arms and handed it over, "Master Zhou."
Zhou Shuren took a step back after launching, and then felt that he was too extreme. There was nothing he could do. The Zhang clan wanted to kill him, but he cherished his life and had a dark face. He could hold on, "What is it to be my official?"
Shi Qing, “…”
Why is Gu Ren so stupid today?
