Chapter 10 There are beautiful women in Guobei Town
"Steward, go and find Xing'er for me," Zhou Zhizhou sat in the study and ordered his servants.
"Yes, sir." The butler exited the study and closed the door.
"Uncle Liu, what does father want from me?" Mr. Zhou asked to his housekeeper, with a worried look on his face, but in his heart he thought that during this period, he had done his duty and had not caused any trouble or done anything disturbing. Didn't his father want to find him?
It's probably because of listening to the opera. It's just a hobby of mine, so I just don't want to be regarded as not doing my job properly.
"I don't know, but it sounds like the master's tone doesn't sound like he's losing his temper." Hearing the housekeeper's words, he breathed a sigh of relief, but then he heard the housekeeper continue, "The master has been shutting himself in the room during this time.
I don’t know what to do, and I don’t dare to ask.”
After listening to the following paragraph, Mr. Zhou silently despised the housekeeper in his heart, but he would never show it, because the housekeeper had been in the Zhou family since he was a child and spent his whole life accompanying his grandfather.
All his life, he has brought up his father, and even when he was a child, he was taken care of by Uncle Liu. In his memory, his father is not as familiar as the housekeeper next to him. For Uncle Liu, he only fears and respects him, and his understanding of his father is also the same.
No one can compare with me. My father once said that sometimes even I feel that "the housekeeper is my other self." Originally, I wanted to ask Uncle Liu for his opinion again, but I guess he couldn't get anything out of it.
So I went back, thinking about the characters in the storytelling on the way.
How deep are the pavilions, pavilions, pavilions and corridors? The art of Jiangnan gardens is just like the people in this area. It is exquisite and unique. Just one glance can make people feel amazing. If you appreciate it carefully, you will discover more.
The exquisiteness that is so subtle to the extreme makes people feel like drinking from a sweet spring. Every plant and tree can feel its taste. Perhaps, this is Jiangnan, this is its unique charm, and this is people's interpretation of nature contained in culture.
Of course, the Zhou family's courtyard is not the best. It is only a small part of the empire, and it only carries a weak branch of the country. From a small perspective, it is a typical representative of this stage.
Mr. Zhou slowly returned to the study, when the young master of the Zhou family had already returned.
"Father, why did you call the child back?" Mr. Zhou asked doubtfully.
"Xing'er, I'm calling you back this time. There are two things you need to do," Mr. Zhou put down his teacup, raised his head and said slowly, "Back then, when my father was fleeing and passed through Guobei Town, I met with the magistrate Jun there.
Sir, we have met before. Your mother was pregnant at that time. It happened that Mrs. Jun was also pregnant for nine months. As a father, he held your hand as your own. Last year, Mr. Jun sent a message saying that his daughter had grown up. You have not seen her in these years.
Miss Juan, I just want to meet you first."
"This..." For a moment, Mr. Zhou felt like a pie fell from the sky and hit his forehead. He was a little dizzy. This feeling is not very good. "My career has not yet been completed, and I have never thought about marriage between men and women.
My father has mentioned this matter many times before, but..." Mr. Zhou vaguely remembered his father telling about the fingertips as a kiss when he was a child. At that time, it was just a story. However, when the matter came to a head,
, but became at a loss, couldn't find an excuse for a moment, and just froze there.
"I know how worried you are. I'm sending you here this time just to visit your Uncle Juan and see Miss Juan. If you fall in love at first sight, it will be a good talk. If it doesn't go your way, let's think about it in the long run." Zhou
The master also saw his doubts and comforted him. As for whether it was what he said and what he thought in his heart, only he knew.
"Father, apart from this matter, is there anything else that I need to do?" Mr. Zhou wanted to change the subject, so he glanced at his father and asked uncertainly, wondering what else would make him happy.
My father was so concerned that he locked himself in the study for several days.
"Actually, this time I ask you to do something very important for the future of the family." Mr. Zhou suddenly became serious, as if he was about to explain something important. Mr. Zhou had rarely seen his father so serious.
I felt uneasy. "You also know that last year, my family secretly modified a fishing boat. In fact, it was a cargo ship. A few years ago, I had someone load a ship full of goods and send it overseas. Now this ship is back.
Already."
"Well, I bought that fishing boat. However, my father has never mentioned it to me about the cargo ship, but he doesn't know about it." Mr. Zhou's heart suddenly became tense. His father rarely mentioned this kind of thing to him, although,
As the only son in his family, he rarely interferes with business matters and has never cared about it. However, this time, things have become a bit complicated, and I am a bit excited and a bit looking forward to it.
"It's not your fault. Apart from me, even the housekeeper doesn't know about this matter. The court is investigating these matters too closely now. The fewer people who know, the better." Mr. Zhou couldn't help but feel comfortable talking about these things.
A little excited, only he knows how lucky this thing is and how much impact it will have on the Zhou family in the future. "This cargo ship brought back a lot of goods, some of which are priceless. If others know, my Zhou family is here
There is no place to stand in Jinhua City. However, this time asking you to go to Guobei Town to meet Miss Juan is just a pretense. The most important thing is that you need to go to Guobei Town to build a garden and transfer the things brought back by the cargo ship.
In the past, and this matter is related to the future of the Zhou family, you should understand." Mr. Zhou looked at him seriously and asked.
"Father, my son doesn't know much about these things. I'm afraid something will go wrong, and it's such a big thing." After hearing what his father said, Mr. Zhou's original excitement was gone forever. He was shocked because
, he is the son of a businessman, and his sensitivity to money is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people. He can smell the value behind it, so he is filled with anxiety again.
"You don't have to worry about this. I'll ask the butler to work with you this time. If you don't understand something, you can ask the butler for his opinion." Mr. Zhou saw his expression and knew what he was thinking, and he also responded to his performance.
I am still satisfied. After all, it is normal for him to behave like this at this age. At the same time, he also affirms his caution and worry. However, he still sighs slightly in his heart. After all, the Zhou family started late and there is no one trustworthy. If not
In this way, how can you let your child do these things? He is still young and many things still need to be done step by step.
Later, Mr. Zhou explained some details and asked Young Master Zhou to prepare.
At this time, Song Zhongyi not only quickly got in touch with new things around him, but also his father, who was assigned by this plot identity, was assigned to work in the county government office in Jinhua City. Song Zhongyi's father was a head catcher and was in charge of all the government officials.
, it’s also quite scenic.
In addition to shopping every day, Jie just inquires about all kinds of news. Fortunately, he is in an excellent environment and his status is convenient. Relying on the convenience of being a nominal father, there is nothing difficult for him around.
The prosperity of this ancient city exceeds the imagination of wilderness hunter Song Zhongyi. The roads extending in all directions are filled with various bustling cities from south to north, and then from north to south. There are various shops along the streets. The south of the city is where the rich live, and the north of the city is where the rich live.
There are various bureaucracies, and the county government is located there. The east part of the city is the busiest place, with countless people coming and going every day.
Hunter Jie quickly adapted to the rhythm of this city. At least it was 10,000 times better than his previous environment. After practicing every day, he would go to the yamen to report, and then wander around to deal with various matters in the yamen.
things.
A few months passed quickly, but Kejie's plot mission was still missing. Even the mysterious voice no longer appeared. The anxious waiting and constant groping made Jie extremely irritable.
There were so many trivial things in the yamen that the hunter's scalp was numb. He patiently dealt with each thing from unfamiliar to familiar little by little, praying that he would encounter the so-called mission.
The only thing that makes the hunter happy is that every time he handles a case, he will be prompted with something like "how much reputation is gained."
After some inquiries, I found out that the Yamen organization belongs to the neutral order and has a separate plot reputation. However, the so-called plot missions have been missing. The only valuable thing is that after completing dozens of missions, I was given a "
Catcher (1/2) achievement: Catcher, the official duty of catching bandits (not completed); and Kuaishou, the official duty of capturing thieves (completed), so they are collectively called the quick catcher."
The thieves caught in the city were already known, but none of the robbers were seen, which made the hunter troubled for a long time.
