The Only Favourite Ugly Husband: 64|To bully people with power
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the ugly husband!
Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin shook the boat to go to the county seat, so they still walked from the back door of Zheng's house, but this time, the treatment they received was completely different from the last time, and there were a lot of passing maids. They kept a large number of them, so that Brother Zhao Jin raised a heart, and the whole person was on guard.
There are really many temptations in this county. He definitely came here with Jiang Zhen!
Zheng's Mansion came out of a second-rank senior, and Yomo was still the richest family in the county. Jiang Zhen thought that Zheng's Mansion would be very big. After entering this time, he discovered that it is actually not big here, just exquisite everywhere.
As for why this mansion is not big...It is probably because the county town is so big in total, and there is no land to increase the area of the house—the huge gardens are basically built in the countryside. .
Of course, Jiang Zhen said that Zheng Mansion is small because he saw more scenes of a large area surrounded by a fence in the countryside... In fact, compared with various modern dwellings, Zheng Mansion is already very Big.
The place where Zheng Yi met Jiang Zhen was in a pavilion half built above the pond. Today, the sun is just right and the breeze is breezy. It is a good meeting here.
"You are here." Seeing Jiang Zhen, Zheng Yi yawned, got up from a rattan chair, and sat on a stone bench by the stone table.
Although Zheng Yi is a man, he has been raised since childhood. His skin is very fair. Even He Qiusheng, who has the best skin in Hexi Village, is probably the same as him. Only now, it is also positive. It is because of his fair skin that the dark circles and stubble on his face are particularly obvious.
"Zheng Shao." Jiang Zhen led Zhao Jin to greet him slightly.
"Sit down when you come, let's talk about the cards." Zheng Dashao said, putting the cards Jiang Zhen gave him yesterday on the table.
This card is made of white paper. Yesterday, a group of people played for a whole afternoon, and it looked a bit stale, but now, it is all damaged.
Obviously, the reason why this young Master Zheng has dark circles on his face is because he went to die with this card at night.
"After I came back yesterday, I played with my mother and my wife for a while, and then almost didn't sleep." Zheng Yi noticed that Jiang Zhen's gaze was on the card, and yawned again: "If it wasn't for this meeting They are all asleep, and they can't get this card."
Jiang Zhen didn't speak yet, Zheng Dashao said again: "But to be honest, this card is too ugly."
"..." Jiang Zhen was a little speechless: "I haven't read a book, I only know that I am scribbling. It's good to be able to draw like this."
"Have you never read a book?" Zheng Yi looked at Jiang Zhen with some surprise. He has sent someone to investigate Jiang Zhen, but the time is too short. Now the people below have not responded...
It's just that, even if Jiang Zhen's specific situation is not clear, after he has observed Jiang Zhen, he still thinks that Jiang Zhen should be a good-born man with some knowledge.
Even, he suspected that Jiang Zhen was born as a military commander, which could explain why he could beat Liu Hei to the ground, and the writing was quite ugly.
Zheng Yi turned over the top card of the pile of cards, and there was an ugly "tiger" on that card.
"I'm an ordinary farmer in Hexi Village. I really haven't read a book, but my two younger brothers have read it. I occasionally hear a little bit of it, but I can barely read." Jiang Zhen said.
Zheng Yi smiled: "You have become a farmer." This Jiang Zhen is neither humble nor overbearing when facing him. This looks... it really doesn't look like an ordinary farmer.
The two exchanged a few words, then went straight to the subject, talking about the card.
"The four patterns you drew on it are a bit nondescript, do you think it would be better to change it to plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum?" Zheng Yi made such a comment when he came up.
"It is indecent to let the four gentlemen appear in the gambling house, and it is troublesome to make. As far as I can see, the most common cards are better to use simple patterns. But in addition to ordinary cards, you can do more Exquisite playing cards, for ladies and ladies, can be painted with plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. Those two tiger cards can be changed into sun and moon cards, one with golden crow and one with Chang'e flying to the moon. "Jiang Zhen said that the myths and legends of this place are the same as those of ancient times that he knew, and Houyi shot the sun and Chang'e to the moon.
Zheng Yi thought about it. The ordinary cards are just rough, and if they are too delicate, he is reluctant to ruin the group of gamblers.
"Another point is that this card is really easy to learn. I will offer it up, and it will indeed be valued by the nobles. I am afraid that it will be all over the streets before long. It is not easy to make money." Zheng Yidao .
The Zheng family can barely count as a scholarly family, but they are definitely not better than those old-fashioned families. They don’t have much family business. It is also because of this that their house will stay in Hecheng County, responsible for doing business and supporting the capital. there.
Similarly, there will be a lot of convenience for them so that they can earn more.
The benefits of playing cards are mainly from the capital, and Zheng Yi hopes that he can also benefit.
"What company does Zheng Shao have?" Jiang Zhen said: "Zheng Shao might as well design a logo for his own company. In the future, whether it is a shop or a caravan, this logo will be used, as well as the back of the card. Draw this sign."
At first when Zheng Yi heard Jiang Zhen say this, he was still a little puzzled. After thinking a little bit, he couldn't help but scream! In this way, those who are the first to touch cards will recognize their cards by the signs, and their business names will be widely known.
This Jiang Zhen, can open his mouth to say such an idea!
It's just that, many of the shops under his name are not the same now. It is not easy to unify them, and we need to think about it long-term.
"There is also this card. You can make more cards, and then you can offer them with enough reserves." Jiang Zhen said again. He is actually not good at doing business, but for modern people, these are very simple and basic knowledge, and it is naturally impossible for him not to know.
"How can I not leak the secrets?" Zheng Yi asked again. He actually has a way of not leaking the secrets, but he still wants to ask Jiang Zhen.
"Each card should be made by someone separately." Jiang Zhen said. At this time, the traffic is inconvenient. Find a few more printing workshops to make it. Who can connect those cards? "It can also be said that the firm uses it for business."
Jiang Zhen and Zheng Yi talked happily.
At first, Zheng Yi asked Jiang Zhen to be in charge of the gambling house, but it was out of gratitude to Jiang Zhen, and did not expect Jiang Zhen to do anything, but now...
"Brother Jiang is interested in managing the gambling house?" Zheng Yi asked. He felt that perhaps Jiang Zhen would be able to manage the gambling house and there would be unexpected surprises.
"Shao Ke Zheng is interested in opening another gambling shop?" Jiang Zhen asked.
Zheng Yi immediately hesitated, this county is so big, and then open a gambling shop. Isn't he robbing himself of business?
"This gambling house does not do business for the poor. It only does business for the rich. For example, the cards of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum can be used." Jiang Zhen said.
Jiang Zhen feels that it is meaningless to collect their hard-earned money from a group of ordinary people. It is better to pack the gambling house and open it only to the rich.
Jiang Zhen had seen those big casinos before, so he chose to say a little bit, Zheng Yi listened, and immediately clapped his hands: "Good idea!"
To the poor, a few copper plates are also very valuable, but the rich are different. People use hundreds of thousands of taels to buy an antique without blinking their eyes.
In Jiangnan, there have always been a lot of rich people...Just say that Hecheng County, no matter how small he is, there are also many rich people in the county seat, and there is no shortage of money for businessmen.
As for why there are so many wealthy people and the county is not very prosperous... People these days like to raise everything by themselves.
Let’s say that the chefs in Zheng’s Mansion have much better craftsmanship than those in the restaurant. They also have people who specialize in needlework. They want to buy cloth. They don’t go to the store to see it, but someone delivers it directly to the house. Come.
Don't talk about it... some rich people even live in the country.
Hundreds of years ago, there was an old man in the neighboring county. After he returned to his hometown, he set up a big mansion in the country as an ancestral house. .
"I will build another gambling shop. No, it can't be called a gambling shop. You will have to give it a better name. When that time, it will be over to you, and the profit will be 30%." Zheng Yi said.
He said very generously, because it was nothing to him, and because he had made up his mind that besides them, Hecheng County, he had to go to the capital to build a big gambling shop in the same way.
In this case, it doesn't matter if the casino in Hecheng County is given to Jiang Zhen.
After talking, Zheng Yi left Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin for dinner.
In the process of speaking before, Zhao Jin didn’t speak, so Zheng Yi didn’t notice him until then, and then asked: "This is this?"
"He is my wife." Jiang Zhen said.
Zheng Yi was a little surprised.
Shuang'er can also marry a wife and have children. Many large families with few people will raise them as men. Afterwards, the right woman may not be able to marry, but as long as they are willing to spend money, marrying a family is not as good. My own girl is still fine.
Because of this, Zheng Yi has also seen twins who can stand up to each other. It's just that those twins are all married. He has never seen a pair of twins who are married and walk around.
Which man would like his wife to show up outside?
And... the appearance of these pairs is really average.
Although he thought so in his heart, Zheng Yi never showed anything. Although he would make fun of people, he knew how to measure. I would never do things like commenting on other people's double children.
Zheng Yi behaved very calmly, but Zhao Jin was still very upset, and he dared not move his chopsticks when eating, very cautious.
Zheng Yi just didn't see all of this, Jiang Zhen would pick up vegetables for Zhao Jin from time to time, but let Zhao Jin slowly calm down.
The food in Zheng's Mansion tastes very good. After Jiang Zhen traveled to ancient times, he has never eaten such a delicious meal, and this has a lot to do with the chefs in Zheng's Mansion who are willing to use the ingredients when cooking.
Just say this fish...
Before in Hexi Village, eating fish with shock absorption was either steamed fish or boiled fish, but now...
There is a sea bass on the table. After cutting the fish with a knife, it was fried in a frying pan and cooked in sweet and sour sauce. In Zhao's family, it was impossible for Zhao Liu to do this.
Sweet and sour perch Zhao Jin liked it very much. Jiang Zhen took a lot of it for him. Zhao Jin was happy to eat. When Jiang Zhen looked over, he smiled at Jiang Zhen.
The smile was actually very restrained, but Jiang Zhen looked particularly good.
After dinner, Master Zheng suggested to take Jiang Zhen to the casino.
Jiang Zhen originally wanted to use Zheng Dashao to fake the power, but of course he would not refuse.
The Zheng family's gambling house is called Hongxing Gambling House. This gambling house is quite large, with two floors and a courtyard behind it.
The guests basically enter through the gate. Zheng Yi led them, but walked in through the side door and went directly into the courtyard behind the gambling house. At this moment, there are seven or eight thugs who are doing nothing. Look like.
Seeing Zheng Yi, these people immediately stood up and bowed to Zheng Yi and saluted: "Zheng Shao!"
Liu Heitou stood among these thugs. He saw Zheng Yi and Jiang Zhen beside Zheng Yi, his entire face was distorted.
A piece of skin on his face was cut off by Jiang Zhen. Such a wound, coupled with his distorted expression, made him look terrible and a little pitiful.
"In the future, you people will be in charge of Jiang." At this time, Zheng Yi said lightly.
Liu Heitou's head is not black, but his face is black.
Zheng Yi was not willing to stay at the casino for a long time, and soon left. As soon as he left, Jiang Zhen smiled and looked at the thugs: "I heard that someone was calling our Hongxing casino. There is a private casino outside. I’m going to see it today. Do you guys want to go together?"
When Jiang Zhen said this, he looked at Liu Heitou, making Liu Heitou's face even darker.
Liu Heitou knows very well that Jiang Zhen is talking about himself.
He started his business by working as a thug in a casino, but later privately gathered a group of people who did not belong to the Hongxing Casino. Not only that, in order to support these people, he secretly opened a casino in Qiaotou Village, which belongs to him.
The Zheng family wants fame and does not lack money. This Hongxing gambling house does not deliberately induce others to owe debts. It does not do things like usury. Anyway, they don’t need to do this. It's very profitable, but Liu Heitou's casino is different.
They will borrow usury, give people a condom, and sometimes even know that a certain family has some money, and they will force the children of that family to gamble.
"Manager Jiang, what are you talking about?" Someone who was not in harmony with Liu Heitou stood up.
"I heard people say that someone in Qiaotou Village was playing the name of our gambling shop." Jiang Zhen said.
"Jiang Zhen, don't deceive people too much." Liu Heitou couldn't help saying.
"You think I deceived people too much. You can leave here right away. You are not from Hongxing Casino, and you don't use the Hongxing Casino sign. No matter what you do outside, no one cares about you. Jiang Zhen smiled and looked at Liu Heitou.
Liu Heitou was afraid to leave.
He has no background. He has been bullying people over the years, and he has done a lot of evil things. If he leaves now, everyone around him will disappear. Jiang Zhen will trouble him, but it will be easier. ?
He didn't dare to leave Hongxing Casino, so he could only watch Jiang Zhen bring all the thugs of the casino with him, even with him, and then went straight to his lair.
This Jiang Zhen, really did it! What will he do in Qiaotou Village in the future? !
