Chapter 1004: Use your power to bully others, open a brothel if you want
Chapter 1004: Bully others with power, open a brothel if you want
When Zhao Pan'er first came to Tokyo, she had a conflict with Chi Pan. Later, Chi Pan even bullied Song Yinzhang, which caused a dispute between several girls and Chi Pan.
Because Zhao Paner has always had the support and protection of Zhou Chen, she was not humiliated and bullied by Chi Pan like in the TV plot.
Therefore, the relationship between them is not particularly bad, but it is definitely not good. Even Zhao Pan'er and the others feel that the servants under Chi Pan are much better than Chi Pan.
They used to see Chi Pan bullying others, but now they see Chi Pan being bullied, and they feel very happy in their hearts.
But when she saw Chi Pan being forced to kneel down and even being insulted, cursed and beaten wantonly, she, who was kind-hearted, suddenly couldn't bear it.
Especially when the river steward scolded the merchants with contempt and asked Chi Pan to lick the mud from his boots, I couldn't bear it anymore.
She looked down on Chi Pan and felt that Chi Pan was a bully and shy of the strong, but this river service suggestion was so insulting that she stood up immediately as she was holding back her anger.
"Chi Pan, you idiot, if you can stretch your neck and let him chop you, if you don't wait for three days, I bet he will have to go to the underworld to play with you."
Chi Pan suddenly turned around. When he saw that the person who stood up for him was actually Zhao Pan'er, his face was full of disbelief.
After he learned from Zhang Haohao that Zhao Pan'er's backstage might be Marquis Zhongyong, he did not dare to trouble Zhao Pan'er again. Even for a while, he had been afraid, fearing that Zhao Pan'er would think of the things he had bullied him before.
Then come to him for revenge.
It was not until later that Zhao Paner came to see him again that he gradually relaxed.
Who would have thought that today, when he was in the most embarrassing situation, Zhao Pan'er, his former enemy, would actually come. Although he was scolding him, he looked like he was going to stand up for him.
Ren Jiang, the Hewu Tidian who bullied Chi Pan, became furious when he saw that a woman named Zhao Pan'er dared to threaten him.
"Where does this woman dare to talk nonsense here?"
Facing Ren Jiang's fierce eyes, Zhao Pan'er was not afraid and responded calmly.
"Am I talking nonsense? I dare to ask, what authority does a person in charge of river affairs have to kill people in the street without going through a trial? Does it mean that he does not take the laws of the country and the court into consideration?"
Ren Jiang's expression changed and he glanced around unconsciously. If there was no one else present, he would not care at all and designated someone to capture this nosy woman.
But he had also been around for many years, so he immediately found a reason.
"He delayed the river affairs, so I can certainly punish him."
Zhao Pan'er said confidently: "The so-called dock leader is just the leader of folk walking. The cleaning of the dock and the repair of the river are supposed to be your responsibilities. When will it be our common people's turn? Chi Yanei is willing to stand by.
To help him is to thank the emperor for his kindness and to serve the court. What do you mean by pointing fingers and making irresponsible remarks?"
Chi Yanei, who had been holding it in for a long time, suddenly shouted excitedly: "Well said, well said."
The surrounding onlookers were usually bullied by these people, but now that they saw Zhao Paner coming forward, they all became excited and shouted for support.
Some onlookers who had been wearing half-masked masks or knew Zhao Paner also expressed their support.
"Ms. Zhao said it well."
"Mrs. Zhao is so courageous and worthy of being a hero among women."
"…………"
Seeing the people around him shouting to support Zhao Pan'er, Ren Jiang became furious and roared.
"Be bold!"
"I'm being bold today, how about it?"
When Ren Jiang saw that Zhao Pan'er was so crazy, he became even more furious: "Here comes someone..."
The angry Ren Jiang opened his mouth to ask someone to capture Zhao Pan'er, but at this moment, a government servant behind him suddenly grabbed his arm.
"Just a reminder, don't take action. This Madam Zhao is not an easy person."
Ren Jiang looked back at his men angrily and asked, "What's so unusual about her?"
The yamen servant whispered: "I heard that Mrs. Zhao seems to be related to Marquis Zhongyong."
"Marquis Zhongyong? Real or fake?"
Ren Jiang broke into a cold sweat and asked eagerly.
Without waiting for the officer to answer, Chi Pan suddenly came over and said: "Of course it is true. Not only is she related to Marquis Zhongyong, but she will soon be the eldest lady of Marquis Zhongyong's mansion. If you don't believe it, you can go to Ma
Asking around on the street, many people know about this."
When Ren Jiang heard that Zhao Pan'er might become the eldest lady of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, his first reaction was that he didn't believe it. But looking at Chi Pan's confident eyes and the reminder just now, coupled with the fact that Zhao Pan'er and the other girls were unflinching.
Strong attitude.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart. If it was true, wouldn't he offend the Zhongyong Hou Mansion?
That was the Marquis's Mansion, and he was also the Zhongyong Marquis who was very popular in the court. He was just a small river worker. He couldn't even enter the Marquis's Mansion. How could he dare to offend the Marquis's Mansion, let alone a powerful person?
Maybe she's from the eldest lady of the Marquis Palace.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt. This was a major matter involving his family and life, so how could he dare to gamble.
Thinking of this, he immediately put away his overbearing attitude, lowered his high head, and gave a big salute to Zhao Pan'er and the girls.
"Ladies, I drank two more bowls of yellow soup, got an eye disease, and recognized the wrong person. I ask you, sir, not to remember the villain's fault. I will give you a heavy gift when I turn around. I just ask you to be noble and let me go."
Zhao Pan'er is not the kind of person who bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong. She knows that the reason why Ren Jiang bows his head is not because he thinks what she said is reasonable or convinced by her, but because he is frightened by the power of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion behind her, so he behaves like this.
A low posture.
"To remind you, do you think we are deliberately making things difficult for you? When you apologize to us, do you really feel that you are at fault? Or are you forced to do it by the power of high-ranking officials?"
Ren Tidian did not dare to refute what Zhao Pan'er said.
Zhao Pan'er felt very bored and sighed lightly.
"I don't want to see anyone bullying others, and I won't bully others myself. Let me remind you, adults, we are all from Tokyo. We drink Bianhe River water and live in Kaifeng Prefecture. After suffering such a huge natural disaster, no one has any heart.
It feels good; you care about the people and the river embankment, and it is only natural that you teach Chi Ya Nei a lesson, because he is always doing evil and lawless things on weekdays."
"Since I bear the name of a domineering crab, I deserve to be called a turtle bastard..."
What he said made the surrounding onlookers laugh. Chi Yanei is still very famous in Tokyo, especially in the business circle, and few people don't know about him.
Zhao Paner's continuous words not only made Ren Jiang and others unable to refute what they said, but even the onlookers were convinced.
Most of the onlookers were businessmen and vendors, who had always been looked down upon by others. Now that they heard that someone was willing to speak for them, and also spoke so well, everyone excitedly cheered and supported Zhao Pan'er.
Finally, under the influence of Zhao Pan'er, Ren Jiang led his men in a high mood to repair the river wharf with Chi Pan and others.

When Zhou Chen entered the palace, he met Gu Qianfan.
"I heard that you were injured while traveling with Yelu Zongsheng of Liaoting?"
Not long ago, envoys from the Liao Dynasty from the north came to the Song Dynasty as envoys. The leader was the prince Yelv Zongsheng of the Liao Dynasty. This Yelu Zongsheng was a versatile man in both civil and military affairs and would have the opportunity to become the emperor of the Liao Kingdom in the future.
In order to show their attention, the official Zhao Heng sent many people to receive him, the standards were extremely high, and Gu Qianfan was also one of the hosts of this reception, accompanying Yelv Zongsheng on his trip.
However, during the trip, an accident occurred and a landslide occurred. Gu Qianfan was injured trying to save Yelv Zongsheng.
Gu Qianfan raised his hands to Zhou Chen and said, "Thank you for your concern, Lord Marquis. I'm fine."
"It's okay."
Zhou Chen could tell that Gu Qianfan's condition was not very good, but it didn't look like he was seriously injured. He was probably injured, and after treatment, he was mostly healed.
"How do you feel about Yelu Zongsheng who is accompanying you? Will he be the great enemy of our dynasty in the future?"
Speaking of this, Gu Qianfan's face became serious. He spent some time with Yelv Zongsheng and found that Yelv Zongsheng was indeed not a simple person.
"Yelu Zongsheng is a man who is outstanding in both literature, Taoism and martial arts. His treatment of others is also different from ordinary Liao people. He is extremely extraordinary. Most importantly, this man is very ambitious and has a high possibility of becoming the leader of the north in the future.
"
Because he trusted Zhou Chen, he had no worries and spoke very straightforwardly, based on his own intuitive feelings.
Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "In other words, if Yelv Zongsheng ascends the throne in the future, it may not be a good thing for our Song Dynasty?"
Gu Qianfan pondered and said: "It's hard to say. I think this person is relatively friendly to our Song Dynasty, and he also likes our Song Dynasty culture. If he becomes the Lord of Liao Ting in the future, it may not be a bad thing for our Song Dynasty."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Sir Gu, you still don't understand the Liao people's culture very well. The more the Liao people like our Central Plains culture, the more likely they are to launch an army. If you have the opportunity to go to the border in the future, you will understand the Liao people's culture."
How deep is the hatred between people and us."
He knew that Gu Qianfan was both civil and military, but he knew too little about the battlefield and the relationship between Song and Liao. He just thought that Yelu Zongsheng was a good person, so he concluded that Yelu Zongsheng might be friendly to the Song Dynasty. This was a
An extremely wrong judgment.
He didn't know if Yelv Zongsheng was the prototype of the Liao emperor in official history, but he understood that during the reign of Renzong after Zhenzong, the Liao court was not friendly to the Song Dynasty.
Gu Qianfan frowned slightly. He knew that the Song and Liao Dynasties were at war with each other, but he had never seen how cruel the Liao people were.
But if he was given a choice between Zhou Chen and Yelu Zongsheng, he would definitely believe Zhou Chen's words more.
"I understand what Mr. Hou means. Instead of expecting the Liao people to be friendly to us, we should strengthen ourselves. As long as our Song Dynasty is strong enough, the Liao people will not dare to bully us."
In the past many years, the Central Plains imperial court had been humiliated by the Liao people, so many people felt a natural sense of weakness when facing the Liao court.
Zhou Chen praised: "Sushi Gu is right. Instead of expecting the enemy to be soft, it is better to strengthen ourselves. As long as our Song Dynasty is strong enough, the Liao people will not matter."
Feeling the confidence in Zhou Chen's words, Gu Qianfan was also infected unconsciously.
After saying goodbye to Gu Qianfan, Zhou Chen went to his office.
Now he is the deputy commander of the Dianqian Division, and the Dianqian Division Commander Guo Du has now been ordered to reflect behind closed doors, so he is now the actual person in charge of the Dianqian Division.
However, unlike Ma Junsi, the former bodyguard and pro-army army, many people there were from the noble family. Zhou Chen was born into a noble marquis and had a natural advantage in controlling the bodyguard and pro-army.
The Dianqian Division is slightly different. The composition of its personnel is more complicated than that of the bodyguards. Zhou Chen's sudden transfer can be said to have no foundation. If you want to control the Dian Qian Division, you need considerable skill.
In the next period of time, Zhou Chen began to arrange the Dianqian Division. Although he was not involved in the ancient officialdom, his management experience was rich enough. Relying on his various methods and experience, he quickly made the Dianqian Division
Controlled most of it.
Some die-hards were transferred away or suppressed by him in various ways, while those who took refuge in him were considered by him to be promoted and utilized, or promised benefits, etc., so the current Palace Chief, he could not
It is said that he keeps his word, but after one sentence, his execution ability will definitely not be worse than that of Commander Guo Du.
When Guo Du's commander came out from behind closed doors, he found that the current Dianqiansi was no longer his former Dianqiansi.
…………
Zhou Chen leaned against the bed, with Zhao Pan'er leaning in his arms. Since the night of the storm, he would often stay in Zhao Pan'er's room at night and hold her to sleep.
"Master Hou, do you still remember the Chi Yanei that I had a quarrel with before?"
"Remember, what happened? He provoked you again? Do you want me to help you teach him a lesson?"
"No, he didn't teach me a lesson. I have reconciled with him. He wants to open a restaurant in partnership with me."
"Oh, open a restaurant, what do you think?"
Zhao Pan'er said with some lack of confidence: "As you know, after that storm, our half-masked masks disappeared. Recently, I have been thinking about whether to start over again. I don't mind, but Sanniang and Yinzhang
They all came to Tokyo with me, I can't ignore them."
"I understand, you want to open a restaurant in partnership with Chi Pan, right?"
Seeing that Zhou Chen didn't seem to be angry or dissatisfied, Zhao Pan'er's face bloomed with a smile again.
"I have this intention, but I agree with what Chi Pan said. It is not easy to open a restaurant in Tokyo, and the investment is also very large. Although he said that he would contribute the money and I would contribute, since it is a partnership, I don't
Probably not paying for it.”
Zhou Chen said: "This is easy to handle. If you have no money, I can lend it to you first. As for the restaurant, if you really want to open it, I can also give you some suggestions."
"Okay, Lord Marquis, please tell me."
Zhao Pan'er sat up from Zhou Chen's arms, full of energy. She knew that Zhou Chen grew up in Tokyo and was a member of an aristocratic family, so he must know more about Tokyo than she did.
"If you just want to open a restaurant that sells food and drinks, I can only say that you are not optimistic about it because there are too many such restaurants. If you want to open one, just open a complex restaurant like that."
Zhao Pan'er looked confused: "Complex restaurant, what kind of restaurant is that?"
Zhou Chen explained: "To put it simply, it means that there is not only food and drink, but also a place to have fun."
"Having fun?"
Zhao Pan'er was very smart and quickly understood what Zhou Chen meant: "You mean, similar to Jiaofangsi?"
Zhou Chen nodded and said: "It's almost the same. Those who can go to restaurants to spend money are basically men. Besides eating and drinking, what else are men interested in? Women, especially those so-called literati, these people, for the sake of face,
They are often the ones who are most willing to spend money.”
"But, we are running a regular restaurant. If there are more services like that, wouldn't it change the taste?"
Zhao Pan'er's face changed slightly. She came from Jiaofangsi, so she was very resistant to that kind of place. She couldn't bear to see other women fall for it.
Zhou Chen said: "Pan'er, this is the way the world is. If you want to maximize your profits, this is the best choice. Of course, if you feel bad about it, you can also choose a service that does not sell your body, but it must be of the nature of a brothel.
This way we can attract more customers.”
The reason why he said that was because he was thinking about himself. His mission included the side mission of listening to music a thousand times. He couldn't go to Jiaofangsi Qinglou every day. It would be too ostentatious.
But if you open a brothel by yourself, you will have an excuse to go there frequently, and it will also be more secretive, killing two birds with one stone.
Zhao Pan'er was caught in a tangle. She was conflicted in her heart, but she knew that Zhou Chen's idea was okay, so she was so tangled.
"I'll think about it again."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Okay, then you can think about it again, but now, it's your turn to help me sleep."
Zhao Pan'er said coquettishly: "Yes, Lord Marquis, I will wait for you to rest right now."
