    Kings seize the direct descendants¡¿Chapter 27 Taigong Fishing

    In Prince Wu's Mansion, Zhu Ciye was not in a good mood at this time, because he received news that someone had been targeting him, including his eldest brother Zhu Ci? Over the years, Zhu Ciye also knew that many people wanted to find fault with him, but he  He has always been alert in his work and has never made any major mistakes, but recently he has always felt uneasy, because the "business" is getting bigger and bigger, and the pressure in his heart is getting bigger and bigger, and it is inevitable that suspicion will arise.

    Zhu Ciye happened to have a batch of private goods in his hands, otherwise he would not be so uneasy. This batch of private goods is worth nearly 70 million, and the evaded taxes alone are not a small amount. If his father finds out about this, he will definitely not be lenient.  he.

    Zhuang Tingxiu came to Prince Wu's Mansion and hurriedly came to see Zhu Ciye, "Your Majesty, I contacted a buyer. It is said that he has a good background and a strong family background. Judging from the current situation, he can eat almost all the goods."

    Zhu Ciye was very happy when he heard this. As long as the batch of goods in his hand is sold, there will be no evidence. Not to mention his eldest brother and the others, even his father can't say anything.  After being happy for a while, Zhu Ciye's face darkened, "Who is the buyer? Is it reliable? Can he eat so many goods?"

    Zhuang Tingxiu thought Zhu Ciye was afraid of not being able to receive the money or being owed money by the other party. "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I arranged this matter with my own money and goods. No one can take the goods away until the money is received."

    Zhu Ciye shook his head, "I'm not afraid that I won't receive the money. How dare a businessman owe me money? He has several heads. I hope you can check the details of the other party carefully. These are extraordinary times. My eldest brother just met his father this morning.  The emperor said he wanted to check the customs, and he obviously came for me. I think he also vaguely knew that I had private goods in my hands. If the other party is from my eldest brother and gets us all involved, then we will be completely ruined. "

    Zhuang Tingxiu shook his head quickly, "I have already checked. The buyer's surname is Liang and he is from Fuzhou. He has been in business for many years and has very strong financial resources. He is also a good person. He said that as long as we can ensure the safety of leaving the port, he will dare to eat all the goods.  .¡±

    Zhu Ciye felt relieved when he heard that he was from Fuzhou, "You can't take it lightly. You must be cautious. You can send people to contact him more. Check the details. Don't let him know where the goods are stored until the last moment."

    Zhuang Tingxiu nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty, would you like to meet this person for a while? After meeting him, Your Majesty will have an idea."

    Zhu Ciye glared, "What time is it now? My eldest brother must be watching me! If I fail this time, I will at most have no capital to compete for the throne in the future, and you will probably lose your head. Not only can I not come forward,  Not even you, if something happens, you can be ripped out in one go."

    Zhuang Tingxiu was stunned, "Your Majesty, who will come forward? This time is not a small sum. Many years of savings have been invested in it. You have to find someone you can trust, right?"

    "Let Zhang Lu go! Shanghai is not far from Zhejiang, so it should be no problem with him here. By the way, Shi Shilun, Shi Langdi's youngest son, can also be carried out to provide cover. Shi Shilun is co-managing port affairs in Shanghai. With him following him, the eldest brother will surely come forward.  They will suspect him." Zhang Lu is Zhang Huangyan's son.  Zhang Huangyan's son basically took over the responsibility for some matters that were inconvenient for Zhang Huangyan to come forward for.  Zhu Ciye felt more at ease with Zhang Lu.

    Sitting in a small sedan carried by two people.  From time to time, Gong Yeliang opened the side window of the sedan and looked out. He remembered the last time he came to Shanghai when he was young. He found that the changes had been too great. It was no longer the port he remembered. It was at least larger than it was twenty years ago.  several times.

    This "fishing" is the first time Gong Yeliang has stood in front of the stage. Because his identity has always been known only to those closest to King Chu, he is the most suitable person to lure King Wu to the bait this time. After preliminary investigation, now  It can be determined that King Wu has a large amount of smuggled goods in his hands. As long as we start from this point, King Wu can be uprooted. Even if Emperor Hongguang can't bear it, King Wu can't protect his shortcomings if he commits such a big case!  Even if Emperor Hongguang didn't attack King Wu harshly, King Wu would have completely lost the capital to fight for the throne.

    Gong Yeliang is also a little excited to be able to stand in front of the stage. He has always been making suggestions behind the scenes. This time it can be considered a challenge!  Less than a month after he came out, after his careful arrangements, he had hooked out King Wu's people.

    Arriving at a famous restaurant in Shanghai, as soon as Gong Yeliang got off the sedan, Zhang Lu came up to him, "Mr. Liang, it's not easy to meet Mr. Liang!"

    Gong Yeliang returned the favor, "It's so rude to keep shopkeeper Zhang waiting for so long. It's so rude!" With that said, the two of them came to the private room, where they sat down separately and chatted while eating.

    Zhang Lu coughed and said, "I heard that Mr. Liang wants a batch of cheap goods. I wonder what kind of goods he is interested in? If it is convenient, I might as well."

    Gong Yeliang smiled and said, "Business people don't have any fixed transactions. They just do whatever they want to make money. I wonder what kind of goods shopkeeper Zhang has?"

    "Mr. Liang said,??I think so too, and I do whatever it takes to make money. Although this is our first time dealing with each other, I can see that Mr. is a shrewd person, just like me. As long as it is profitable, it doesn¡¯t matter what the product is or what the source is.  , eat them all.  Zhang Lu said while looking at Gong Yeliang.

    Gong Yeliang drank a glass of wine and said, "So shopkeeper Zhang is also a member of the same group! When I want goods, I never ask whether the person selling is public or private, official or civilian. I have dealt with all the businessmen in the world.  I even have to buy goods from Japanese Japanese people, everything is mainly about making money!"

    Zhang Lu put down his chopsticks and was slightly surprised, "Sir, have you done business with the Japanese? The imperial court has a decree not to do business with the Japanese!"

    Gong Yeliang smiled, "Because of this, business with the Japanese is easy. For example, last year I collected a shipload of ginseng from North Korea and sold it to a Japanese named Nishiyanagiemon. They didn't even tell me the price.  They lack everything there and generally don¡¯t bargain.¡±

    "Sir, you should be careful when doing business with Japanese people! It is said that the imperial court banned Japanese people from sea. If they are caught by the navy, they will be imprisoned and may even be beheaded!" Zhang Lu felt that this businessman named Liang  He was so brave that he risked his life just to make money. He had so many connections and strong backing, but he never thought of doing business with the Japanese. It seemed that he was really brave.

    Gong Yeliang looked at Zhang Lu pretending to be surprised and worried, and felt funny in his heart, "You are a businessman! You just have a sense of adventure, and you can gain wealth through danger. No matter what business you do, if it is not illegal, there is no big profit! An honest man  How many people can make a fortune? As the saying goes, a horse will not get fat without night grass, and a person will not get rich without windfall. As long as you are careful and give away the money you make, there is no joint that cannot be broken. Money can make ghosts  It¡¯s a grind!¡±

    When Zhang Lu heard this, he knew what the other party meant. "Sir, you are right. A businessman like you must have a unique path, otherwise it would not be so smooth sailing!"

    "Yeah! Shopkeeper Zhang is also a member of the family." Gong Yeliang nodded in agreement, "Officials and businessmen, no officials, no business, otherwise you will not be able to move forward, let alone make money, even if you pay for the coffin, it won't be enough!"

    Zhang Luwen thought for a moment, "So Mr. Liang also has a backing that he can rely on? I wonder who he relies on?"

    Gong Yeliang smiled and said, "The shopkeeper's question is not smart! What the common people say is good, true and false, false and true, but when it comes to officialdom, it's better not to say it, otherwise you and I will be in trouble.  Besides, the shopkeeper, can you tell me what you rely on? I think it¡¯s impossible! Having said all that, if the shopkeeper is sincere, please ask me to see the goods and negotiate the price. If the shopkeeper is not sincere,  , forget it! I have also made a lot of money this year, and I really want to take a break!"

    Zhang Lu's face turned red when he heard this, "Sir, I misunderstood what I meant! I'm just curious, but I have to understand my difficulties. If I don't understand your strength, I don't dare to throw the goods out easily! I'll do it before  I¡¯ve been scammed before and have to be careful.¡±

    Gong Yeliang knew that Zhang Lu was afraid that he was from the King of Chu's side or an official, otherwise he would not have tricked him like this, "It is understandable that once bitten by a snake, he will be afraid of well ropes for ten years! But we must also look at it.  Who is he? Didn¡¯t we say that he has the money, so what are you afraid of?"

    Zhang Lu hesitated for a moment, "Let's do this! Sir, go back first and I'll make some arrangements. Then I'll go find him. Then we can set a time to see the goods. How about that?"

    Gong Yeliang pretended to be a little impatient, "It's a small business, why should it be like this! You guys are really unhappy in doing things, so be it! I can stay in Shanghai for three days. If there is no news after three days, then I have to leave.  "

    Zhang Lu returned to his residence and told Zhuang Tingxiu everything about the meeting.  Although Zhuang Tingxiu was behind the scenes this time, the matter was very important and he was not relaxed at all. "Then let's wait for three days before he has contact with anyone. If there is nothing special, it will not be too late to contact him again."  We will take him to see the goods in three days. We can't miss the opportunity anymore. The prince is very anxious. We will sell the goods and get the money, so that everyone can be at ease."

    Three days passed. The people sent by Zhang Lu to keep an eye on Gong Yeliang came back and said that they had not found any contact with Gong Yeliang. He was either strolling around the port or going to restaurants, and even went to a hospital.

    Zhang Lu frowned when he heard Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, did you follow me in? What did you see?"

    One of the people following him laughed and said, "Sir, what are you going to do in the brothel? Just ask the girl to do that! Let's hear it from beginning to end. Don't tell me, this old guy is immortal. I even heard that he went off the rails."  It¡¯s not over yet!¡±

    Zhang Lu told Zhuang Tingxiu all these situations. The two of them discussed it and asked the old Liangtou to see the goods. Zhuang Tingxiu went to meet Shi Shilun. He had to deceive Shi Shilun, otherwise it would be easy to ship the goods.  Something went wrong.
