The biography of Gu Qi, a poor girl

When Lao Hong mentioned these things, he talked in bits and pieces, casually talking here and there, and some times were reversed and could not be connected at all.

Jiang Xiao secretly memorized carefully, and he couldn't help clicking his tongue while recording.

In the past, I only thought that the Four Seas Society was not well-known in front of the major forces in Yuzhou. Although it was a bit strange, it had no background and it was not difficult to deal with. Now, after a deeper look, I realized that the Four Seas Society's methods are amazing.

In the name of merchants, the entire Universal Club is closely linked with Yuzhou.From local officials, clan gentry, down to traffickers and pawns, whether it is farming, selling goods, or daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, they all seem to be inextricably linked to the Universal Society and cannot be separated from it.

It's only been a year, and if it takes longer, no one can replace the prestige of the Four Seas Association in Yuzhong.

At this time, it may be more difficult for the eldest brother to move the world than to move those hard stubbles in southern and northern Chongqing.

After all, one can be used in the name of suppressing bandits, but the Four Seas Association has never committed banditry before. If we really want to insist on this name, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop the people in Yuzhong.

Besides, it is not just the merchant clans in Yuzhong that the Four Seas Association is attracting. Even the local officials in all parts of Yuzhong are friendly with the Four Seas Association.

Eldest brother came to Yuzhou on a temporary basis. This errand is not bad, as long as it can be done well, once the term of office is over, elder brother's official career will only be smoother.

But if you want to talk about Yuzhou, it is indeed a mess. Although Jiang Xiao does not want to be an official, he has heard and seen it among the elders at home, and he knows that at this time, the eldest brother must not be separated from the magistrate. It will only be more difficult for those who want to intervene in the governance of Yuzhou.

Do you want to let the Universal Society do its thing?

After a long period of time, they will have to watch the Universal Society completely take root in Yuzhou. Wouldn't it be difficult for the imperial court to intervene in Yuzhong's local affairs?

Besides, the Four Seas Association still maintains private soldiers. The imperial court will not allow local forces to become bigger on one side, and it will not want to see officials, businessmen, bandits and three parties secretly pass the music.

If this mess grows bigger, the trouble will still fall on the eldest brother in the end, after all, the Universal Club will grow under the jurisdiction of the eldest brother.

No matter how Jiang Xiao thought about it, he felt that this matter was difficult to handle, but he really couldn't get his hands on it. Don't look at him in the imperial capital and no one paid attention to it, but Jiang Xiao really didn't dare to be so tyrannical in this remote place in Yuzhong. .

He's used to acting arrogantly, and it's not that he's not smart enough. He brought two men with him this time, and the only one who can fight is the sword. cry.

Let's say that Jiang Xiao was having a headache for his elder brother, and Feng Siniang on the other side straightened her clothes and walked out of the yard alone. As usual, Feng Siniang stopped near the flower garden.

"Wang Shan, you see that girl is here again, she comes every day, and you still say you don't know her?" The gardener next to Wang Shan took a glance at Sifeng and couldn't help but tease.

Wang Shan didn't look back, and continued to tidy up the flower garden in his hand, only said indifferently: "That's a guest."

"I'm afraid this guest didn't come here specifically to find you." The person beside him joked.

Wang Shan chuckled, but didn't speak.

The steward of the flower garden saw that other people continued to joke, so he coughed and reminded: "There are rules in the building, you can't gossip about the guests at will, please be careful, if the chief steward finds out, deducting wages will be light."
