The combat meeting in Zhao Mansion Study Room was held until the second half of the night.

Zhao Hao and the members of the command center brainstormed and quickly formulated an emergency canvassing plan.

Currently, the number of votes on the shipping side is twenty. Without being poached, as long as there are three more votes, you can ensure the majority.

So where do these three votes come from?

First of all, because of Gao Gong, the eleven votes in Henan, Shanxi and Huguang must be excluded.

Excluding the six votes in Jiangbei, which are related to the interests of the canal transportation, there are only four votes in Shandong, and two votes in Guangdong and Beizhi.

But after careful analysis, the hometowns of the two people in Zhili in the north, Daming Prefecture and Cangzhou also rely on the canal transportation. They dare not vote for shipping... The court agreed to vote for the registered vote, and the elders of the hometown knew about it, but they wanted to dig their ancestral graves.

By the same token, the Daqing River in Jinan, the capital of Shandong Province, is connected to the Grand Canal, and is a transportation hub in a broad sense, with the rise and fall of the canal in parallel. Therefore, Yin Shidan, the Minister of Rites from Jinan, Shandong, will not vote for shipping.

"So, Shandong officials have no hope?" Everyone felt a little desperate after hearing the analysis. Now there are only two Guangdong barbarians left, and it is not enough to pull them all over.

Besides, Guangdong's smuggling is rampant, far surpassing Fujian, and is the highest in the country. The more profits there are, the more determined the two Guangdong barbarians are to oppose Jiangnan shipping. If they can be pulled over, they will have already been pulled over. Why wait until now to cram the moment?

"You can't say that." Zhao Hao shook his head. Shandong is a province with a large population that cannot be avoided during the maritime transportation, and it is also the most economically developed province in the north of the Ming Dynasty. Jiangnan Group's intelligence collection of the province is still very good.

He looked at Sun Dawu, and Sun Dawu looked through it in a sensible way and hung up a map of Shandong Chengxuan Political Envoy.

This Shandong map is several times larger than later Shandong Province.

In addition to the well-known Shandong territory, the three eastern provinces in later generations, the area of ​​Sakhalin Island in the Khingan Mountains was also painted on maps.

This is not a map to open the border, but at this time the Ming Dynasty established the Nuergandu and Liaodong Dushi in the northeast and outer Xing'an Mountains to implement the rule. The Nuergandushi was controlled by the Liaodong Dushi, and the Liaodong Dushi belonged to the Shandong Chengxunzhengsi.

But this is not the focus now. Zhao Hao used a wooden stick to click on the huge Shandong map, and the red-labeled Grand Canal in the lower left corner.

"Even if it is not counted as Liaodong, just about Shandong's locality," Mr. Zhao said in a deep voice: "The Grand Canal only rubs against the western Shandong area, and its impact on the central and eastern Shandong areas."

"Because the hills in central Lu east of the Grand Canal block the rich Jiaolai Plain and the possibility of using the Grand Canal." He pointed to the Jiaodong Peninsula again and said: "So for the people in this area, the Grand Canal has no effect at all, what does life and death have to do with them?"

Everyone couldn't help but look excited, Mr. Zhao's idea was indeed right.

"The four officials in Shandong, in addition to Yin Shilang, one is from Laizhou Prefecture, the other is from Qingzhou Prefecture, and the other is from a military family member of the Tielingwei, the other is from the Liaodong Dusi." Zhao Hao showed a smile that everyone could not understand and said: "We can fight for the last three."

"But the people from the canal transport proposed to reopen the Jiaolai River. I'm afraid that both Laizhou and Qingzhou will support it..." Fatty Tang scratched his head and said, "After all, the Jiaolai Canal has hit them."

"How long can it last if Jiaolai River is repaired?" Zhao Liben sneered: "What's more, those people in the Caoyun River are simply using Jiaolai River as an emergency room pot. Once the Grand Canal is repaired, they will immediately throw it aside. The two Jiaodong old men are now fooled by the Caoyun people. As long as they can calm down and think about it, they will know that we are not lying."

"That's right!" Xu Wenbi clapped excitedly and said, "That's too unprofitable for the people of Jiaodong. He mobilized many troops to open the Jiaolai River, but it only lasted for two years! Isn't this a scam? They want the fellow villagers to stab their backbone, so just support their plan!"

"Yes, let's visit these two tomorrow." A famous man like Zheng Ruozeng, who has no official status, is most suitable for being a broker.

As he said that, he looked at Zhao Hao and said, "But it's not appropriate to have empty hands, right?"

"If they are willing to vote for us, Jiangnan Group can promise to set up a transit port in Jiaozhou Bay and Laizhou Bay to carry it for them every year, with a cargo quota of no less than 200 ships." Zhao Hao waved his hand and said generously:

"If their trade volume can exceed two hundred ships, of course it will be better, we will cover all!"

Shandong's silk weaving, cotton spinning and porcelain making industries are all the best in the north, and Mr. Zhao was eager to pull them onto his own ship.

"Well, if this happens, they will probably be moved." Zheng Ruozeng felt his confidence increase greatly.

"Mr. Kaiyang, please pay attention to your health." Zhao Hao looked at Zheng Ruozeng with concern. Although he was accompanied by a doctor from Jiangnan Hospital for health care, and Zheng Ruozeng himself was a famous doctor, he was always worried about this old man who devoted himself to the wholeheartedness.

"Don't worry, young master, I'm in good health recently." Zheng Ruozeng felt warm in his heart. He could still feel the unusual concern of Mr. Zhao.

"Where is the person from Tieling, Liaodong?" Everyone looked at the famous brand of "Huang Xuehai, the left-level engineer in engineering department".

Liaodong is outside the pass, and it has something to do with the canal? No matter how Huang Qiujian chooses, he will not complain to the villagers. Moreover, he is a censor of the Sixth Corps, and the governor of Shandong dare not put pressure on him.

If Mr. Zhao hadn't formed a big gang with the censors at the time, it would have been easier to convince this person.

"It's a coincidence that Huang Qiujian and the county magistrate of He from our Kunshan County were in the same hometown. Although he later passed the Jinshi, our old man He failed many times and had to pick Kunshan. However, there were few officials from Liaodong, and they never stopped interacting with each other."

"Before coming, Lao He wrote a letter and asked me to send it to him. I'll ask Secretary Ma to find it out." Zhao Hao scratched his head and said, "We can also compare Jiaolai to ensure their transportation volume of 200 ships a year, so that the old irons in Northeast China can also sell some mountain goods to improve and improve."

As he said that, he searched on the map, and the wooden stick was clicked on the southernmost end of the Liaodong Peninsula: "As the location, it is located in Jinzhouwei, Lushun, and Dalian as they choose."

"Okay." Everyone responded excitedly. The seemingly hopeless and a messy situation made Mr. Zhao unravel and suddenly became clear.

Zhao Hao also formulated different action plans for two Guangdong officials. He also formed five attack teams, and everyone present led a group to conquer the five officials separately.

As for Mr. Zhao himself, he is still young and has a very tender face. These five officials are not shareholders of Xishan Company and have no relationship with him. He is really not suitable to be a lobbyist. It is better to respond at home.

It was not until the rooster crowed that Zhao Hao completed all the deployment.

In the study, Mr. Zhao's decisive voice echoed: "There are three days left before the court discussion. Three days, these five people must be taken down. I will not accept the failure!"

"You must also be careful of being poached." Zhao Liben added.

"I understand!" Everyone left with a loud bang, and the next three busy days will be.

After seeing everyone off, Zhao Hao and Zhao Liben sat down in the yard and looked up at Qi Mingxing in the sky.

The old man can finally light a cigarette and suck up the clouds and mists quickly.

"I guess Old Xier will send someone to chat in the past two days." Zhao Liben was addicted to it, and Fang said: "Actually, Yang Yupo is still very good at being a human being. I guess he didn't expect that you would react so quickly this time."

"If I hadn't suffered a lot today, my grandson would be kept in the dark." Zhao Hao put his elbows on the steps and looked at Chang Gengxing in the east sky and said, "Now I want to come, Mr. Zhang goes to Changping, probably because he is reminding me that the one who plots against me is Lao Xier, not him."

"Hehe, it's almost the same." Zhao Liben couldn't help laughing and said, "This Zhang Taiyue is a bit interesting, as if he was afraid of offending you. Why? Could it be that he has fallen in love with you?"

The old man said as he touched his chin and said, "Well, his girl is still very good. But I still stand firmly to welcome you."

"Ahem..." Mr. Zhao couldn't help but feel embarrassed and said in a daze: "Grandpa, what a serious matter is."

"I'm talking about serious things." Zhao Liben smiled and patted his head, then let his grandson go and said, "Old Xier sent someone here, will you see him or not?"

"No." Zhao Hao shook his head and said.

"Why, are you really angry?" The old man glanced at Zhao Hao strangely.

"It's basically pretending to show it to your own people." Zhao Hao said without blushing: "I really want to make this deal with Lao Xier. Everyone can get what they want, and they are not deceived."

"But we really can't sign the alliance under the city." After saying that, he said seriously: "It's second to whether to bow your head or not. The key is that even if Gao Gong is about to resume this favor, we must give Gao Hu Zi! If you don't negotiate a non-aggression treaty with Gao Hu Zi, how can we feel at ease to let him come back?"

"Yes, my dear grandson is very clear-headed." Zhao Liben took a puff of cigarettes with pleasure, spit out a string of cigarette rings and said, "Whether Gao Hu Zi owe us or Lao Xier, the difference here is so big."

As he said that, the old man smiled and said, "Actually, there is a very simple way. If you go to Li Chunfang again, tell him that you either support shipping, or you promise Lao Xier to close the door and put Gao Gong. I guess Mr. Li will definitely change his attitude."

"That's right, Master Li comes from love." Zhao Hao responded, but rolled his eyes secretly, thinking that this is a bad idea? Not only will he offend Li Chunfang, he will offend Lao Xier and completely offend Gao Huzi. I am afraid that even Zhang Juzheng will offend him.

"I am making fun of you, don't really go to him." Zhao Liben knocked out the ashes on the steps, pressed Zhao Hao's head and stood up and said, "Go to sleep quickly, otherwise it will be dawn."

"It's already dawn." Zhao Hao smiled bitterly, and was in his bun, then got up and helped his grandfather into the bedroom.

Originally, Ye lived in the mansion, but after Zhao Xian got married, she didn't want the bride to see the embarrassment, so she moved out, so the old man had to stay alone in the empty room.
Chapter completed!
