Chapter 1011

The third year of Jingming, autumn.

Weishui Wharf in the capital city, ships from south to North gather here, people, goods, in full swing.

In order to facilitate the delivery of goods, Sanhe express paid its own money to build a railway track at the wharf, which directly leads to the warehouse in the capital city of Sanhe express, which is also the headquarters of Sanhe express.

The double track carriage, pulling goods one after another, is much faster than manpower.

It's the envy of people in other warehouses.

"What are you looking at? Is that what we can afford? Take the goods with you

Warehouse keeper, a stroke on Lifu's head.

Lifu hehe a smile, "is envy."

"You envy me. With this, you have no work. "

"Look at what the steward said, even if there are rails, there is no need for people to carry the goods off the ship."

"Go and carry the goods. If you delay, you will be deducted from your wages. "

Lifu, he's gone.

The man came forward and murmured with the steward, "why don't the owner repair the warehouse on the edge of Sanhe express warehouse, and then you can polish it and take the double track carriage to transport the goods together."

The steward raised his eyelids and said, "what do you think the light of Sanhe express is so easy to touch?"

"What's in it? I'll tell you about it."

The steward coughed softly, "if you want to be stained, you have to abide by the rules of Sanhe express. But there was no movement in the court.

This is not right!

The mine owners failed to let the chaotang chief judge justice. Instead, they received a letter from the capital, asking them to cooperate with the Shaofu and send several representatives to the capital. He also said that there were great wealth waiting for everyone.

The mine owners looked at each other.

They blocked the officials of the Shao Fu. You come and go and fight with each other several times. Finally, you can find out what the Shao Fu is doing.

Outside the pass, overseas, the official of six grades?

Just is it worth trading with existing mines?

The crowd hesitated.

Jin Wuwei is covetous, and has the rogue posture of arresting people and ordering prison without cooperation.

That's it.

I can't wring my leg. I'll go to the capital and have a look at what the court is doing.

So, a total of 20 mine owners, headed by the mine owner surnamed Zhang, came to the capital by boat.

There were a few ships behind, all of them men and guards.

Get off the boat and stay in the most luxurious hotel in Beijing.

This group of mine owners, all of them are not short of money.

The mine owner surnamed Zhang is Zhang Shengshui.

The reason why people take him as the leader is that he shares the same clan with the Zhang family in the capital city.

An aunt of the Zhang family in the capital city married the Gu family in the capital city. She was the eldest aunt of the empress.

With this relationship, Zhang Shengshui was naturally selected as the core representative of this negotiation.

Zhang Shengshui first handed a letter of worship to the Zhang family in the capital city. He met smoothly and got a general understanding of the situation of the imperial court in the capital.

After that, he handed a post to the Gu family of the Town Army General's house and went to visit the empress's great aunt, Zhang, as a junior.

Zhang took the invitation and read it several times. "If you hadn't reminded me, I didn't know there was such a relative."

The eldest daughter-in-law, Xiao Zhang, said on one side: "this family is mining. It is said that the Shao Fu has seized the private mines in the south, which is extremely noisy. "

"What are they doing in the capital after the Shaofu seized the private mines? Is it hard to find the court to complain? "

"Not really. It is said that it is the Shaofu who wants to give everyone wealth. They come to Beijing to explore the sincerity of the imperial court. "

Zhang immediately understood, "as the Queen's mother's great aunt, she turned into a sweet cake. Does he want to test the empress's attitude through me when he gives me a prayer

"Does mother-in-law want to see him?"

Zhang thought for a while, "do you mean the Shao Fu is checking the private mines in the south, but there is no movement in the north?"

"There's no movement in the north. Maybe it's because the North has been making a lot of noise for nearly a year or two. "

Zhang shook his head and nodded, "there is no movement in the north. I'm afraid it has something to do with the northwest army's westward march into Xiliang. Well, I'm a woman. Why should I be a woman. Send someone to invite him in. After all, the etiquette is not good enough. "

Zhang decided to meet Zhang Shengshui and dislike his bad manners.

Zhang Shengshui was invited into the Town Army General's house and met the Zhang family in the flower hall.

"My nephew greets my aunt. When I see my aunt for the first time, please accept my kindness."

Zhang Shengshui handed over the gift list. The maid took it and put it in front of Zhang.

Zhang swept his eyes, and the list was very rich.

She frowned slightly and winked at her eldest daughter-in-law, Xiao Zhang.

Xiaozhang, knowing that, quietly stepped down and prepared to return the gift.

"Sit down! You have heard from my mother's family before, but I haven't seen each other for many years, and I'm a bit rusty. "

"It's all due to our bad manners. From now on, people will send people to the capital every year to send gifts. ""That's not necessary. Is this your first visit to Beijing

"Exactly

Zhang's chatting with Zhang Shengshui did not mean business.

Zhang Shengshui himself is not worried.

After the banquet, he got up to leave without mentioning the purpose of his coming to the capital.

It was as if this was a normal meeting between relatives.

This let Zhang take a high look.

The housekeeper sent him out and gave him a gift.

Zhang Shengshui refused to accept anything and jumped into the carriage and ran away.

The housekeeper had no choice but to report to the Zhang family truthfully.

Zhang Shi smell speech, ha ha a smile, "let him go."

"Zhang Shengshui has never asked anything about the young master and the empress and refused to ask for a return. What is the purpose of his doing so?"

Xiao Zhang is a little puzzled.

Zhang said with a smile: "he just needs to let people know that he came to our house and stayed for a banquet. He'll be polite to his family. He'll always be related to us. "

"There are a lot of these private miners. The list he sent was too generous. Is it OK to accept it? "

"Find out where he lives and find a chance to return."

"My daughter-in-law knows it!"

……

A group of private mine owners headed by Zhang Shengshui settled down in the capital temporarily and felt the local conditions and customs different from those in the south.

The gold rush in Xiliang is still fermenting, and the newspapers are also advocating it.

The houses around the Imperial College are in hot speculation.

This group of people, are all the owners of money.

Curious about the double track carriage, I went to experience it specially.

The ticket is a small sum of money. When you get into the luxury carriage, you can eat and drink. The consumption is nearly 100 taels.

The station staff all regard this group of people as the local tyrant and country bumpkin from the south.

Boss Niu, the station master, slapped his fellow on the head, "can you say that? Serve me! If we have more masters who are so generous, we will have our bonus this month. "

"OK!"

The guys agreed.

The mine owners, sitting in double gauge carriages, enjoyed this and that, one after another. Discuss to find the world car company, to the south to repair one for them.

"It's very good for pulling ore!"

"The cost is too high. It's better to work hard."

"Hard work is too slow. It's not so fast."

"The government has closed down our mines. It's time to raise the price of iron ore and copper mine."

"Let's not talk about the price increase. What is the meaning of the young master's leaving us in the inn, and only a small official has appeared to receive us for so many days? "

"Are you playing with us?"

"How unreasonable."

"Better go back."

"Here we are. We have to talk about it. I can't talk about going back. "

"Hum! I don't believe that the Shao Fu and Jin Wuwei can keep an eye on all the mines? There will always be a day to withdraw. When they leave, we'll start. "

"What a rush! It's good to have a look and learn more from the life meaning Scripture. "

As soon as Zhang Shengshui spoke, everyone ended his complaint.

"Master Zhang, have we been waiting like this?" Questions have been raised.

Zhang Shengshui was staring out of the window and said, "it's coming!"

They have been in the capital for ten days. It's unreasonable for the government to continue to air them.

"It is estimated that the young master will send someone to see us these days. Keep your spirits up and don't talk. First listen to what the young master says. "

"Yes! Just listen to Mr. Zhang. You are a person who has read books, and you have more insight than us
