In Yangzhou, Gu Zhilun took out some twists and turns and then took the money to respond to the sky, and the shop at Qikong Bridge was busy.

In the past, this area was He Lianggong's world, but now suddenly there is a Gu Zhilun. Everyone only heard that he came from Yangzhou and built a large-scale construction at Qikong Bridge, and all the eighteen shops were re-planned and laid out, and everything was a big move.

With the eighteen shops as the core, there are casinos, wine shops, bookstores, and bookstores for literati and poets. Such a large layout plan was completed and immediately caused a sensation in the entire Liuhe County. On the day of its opening, the Qikong Bridge was even surrounded.

On the riverside where the river valley pier is usually empty, there are now more than a dozen pleasure boats. Gu Zhilun’s newly opened restaurant is Fuyun Building, the newly opened bookstore is called Hengwu Bookstore, and there are also Tianyi Teahouse, snack shop, jewelry shop, rouge shop, ready-to-wear shop, and other shops.

It is no exaggeration to say that such a scene has never happened in Liuhe, not to mention it in Yingtian. At the same time, so many shops open doors to welcome customers, and all the services give people a very high-end feeling, because there was a successful experience in Cross Street back then, and now Gu Zhilun is familiar with the scene of trading like this.

Lu Zheng once guided him such strange words as preferential policies, advertising promotion, sensational effects, discount policies, etc., and Gu Zhilun was very mature in his mastery, such as the newly opened casinos, and gamblers could get half a tael of silver if they bought ten taels of silver.

Guests who spend more than one tael of silver on the restaurant can enjoy a 20% discount on the same day, as well as snack shops, tea shops, jewelry and rouge shops, and various discounts. Anyone who is familiar with the market will think that they can make a fortune by themselves after calculating.

For example, a necklace that you need to buy for thirty taels of silver on weekdays can now be bought at 20 taels of silver on Qikong Bridge. And as long as you buy a piece of jewelry, there is an additional chance of a lottery. How can you win a pure gold earring or ring when you have a lucky draw this time?

In addition, the rouge sold in the rouge shop are top-quality products, and they are 20 to 30% cheaper than usual. Whenever someone encounters such a good thing, he will definitely pass it to ten times, ten times a hundred times. The news spreads throughout Liuhe in half a day, and Yingtian will know it in one day.

The Qikong Bridge suddenly became popular. Gu Zhilun's business was running with money like flowing water. Many people from Yingtian came here to see the bustle and prosperity of the Qikong Bridge.

...

Zhan Tianqi once again went from Yingtian to Liuhe County. Compared to his previous nervousness, this time he was relatively relaxed.

After getting off the sedan chair in Liuhe County, Nie Yong personally accompanied him to the East Gate Wharf by carriage.

Along the way, Zhan Tianqi saw an endless meadow, with cavalry galloping across the meadow, and the newly built temporary camp tent was majestic and mighty. After the cavalry camp of the Southern Prefecture Army went down the mountain, it seemed to be completely reborn, and it looked like it was a powerful force of the Ji Liao Iron Cavalry.

When the cavalry battalion of the Southern Prefecture Army went down the mountain, all the problems that were originally worried about, such as food and salary, battalion commander issues, security issues, etc., have been properly handled, and the soldiers' mental outlook has been completely renewed. Zhan Tianqi felt very pleased to see this situation.

"Mr. Nie, you still have a way. These soldiers and oils have become elites, and they are not easy to deal with! But Master Nie is extraordinary when he takes action. This group of arrogant soldiers and generals are at your mercy now. It's amazing!" Zhan Tianqi said.

Nie Yong smiled faintly and said, "My lord is too much. The method I used is actually simple. The warriors are fighting, so I took advantage of their weakness to make the Cavalry Battalion and the Shenji Battalion rival each other. Now the two generals are leading their troops in this area. I am the host and give them food and food. If they don't listen to me, it will be difficult for me to win, so I will naturally take the initiative!"

Zhan Tianqi said: "This is your opponent. Also, you have not been in vain in Yangzhou these years. I heard that a Yangzhou business group was helping you behind your back. This is very good! The Jiangnan power clan makes trouble everywhere, and this Yangzhou business group has made great contributions!"

Nie Yongdao: "Mr. Zhan, Yangzhou is a small place after all, and these small merchant groups and Jiangnan power clans are not the same as the same magnitude. They can only solve their urgent needs.

However, through them, they can get the Nanfu Army down the mountain and take the first step, I believe that what will happen next to you will be easier! With my Liuhe County leading this, it is only a matter of time before you can control the Nanfu Army."

Zhan Tianqi nodded vigorously and said, "Let's go with me and have a while to meet Cheng Hu and Ma Rulong. If it is true as you said, I will suggest to the Eastern Palace that the prince will go on a tour next year, and you can invite him to Jiangnan and his party. Haha, Lord Nie, what do you think?"

Nie Yong was stunned for a moment, his whole body was shocked. The prince's visit was a tradition of Dakang, and its meaning was to inspect the emperor, and more of them had personal intentions.

The prince usually goes on tour every three years, and he has never been to Jiangnan. If the prince really comes to Jiangnan next year, it will be a great honor for the people of the Prince of Jiangnan. Zhan Tianqi used such a thing to describe the significance of the Nanfu Army going down the mountain this time, which is undoubtedly the greatest compliment to Nie Yong.

Zhan Tianqi arrived at the two major camps of the Cavalry and Shenji Camp. Cheng Hu and Ma Rulong's attitudes did change. They turned against their previous arrogance and expressed their loyalty in front of Zhan Tianqi, hoping that they would have the opportunity to stay.

Especially Cheng Hu, when he brought five thousand cavalry to this place, he fell in love with it. As Lu Zheng said, the flat horse along the river is really a natural cavalry training ground.

Cheng Hu had a wrong idea before, and was only worried that he would take the wrong step and get caught in the endless factional struggles in Jiangnan. If he took the wrong team, he would encounter unpredictable disasters.

Now he suddenly realized that as long as he had military power in his hands, the soldiers who were in charge could eat and drink spicy food, it had nothing to do with vain. At the critical moment, he raised his arms and shouted, and these soldiers were still obedient. If he wanted to be the emperor's loyal minister, no one could stop him.

Since that's the case, what else is Cheng Hu worried about now? If he had such a good place to eat, live and train for five thousand cavalry, what does it matter if he obeyed Zhan Tianqi? Zhan Tianqi was originally the commander-in-chief and had the military talisman given by the emperor. If he didn't listen to Zhan Tianqi, he would still want to rebel?

Zhan Tianqi walked around the East Gate Wharf and went to Qikong Bridge to stay at night. The Qikong Bridge was still full of traffic at night, and people were coming and going.

Zhan Tianqi secretly bought a house at Qikong Bridge. He went on a tour of Liuhe today. During the day, Nie Yong accompanied the whole city. Many of his confidant followers secretly arrived at Qikong Bridge first to wait!

Among these confidants, Gu Chunfeng, the number one strategist. Gu Chunfeng's identity is unusual. He is an old man in the prince's mansion. The prince puts Gu Chunfeng next to Zhan Tianqi. This is the crown prince's extreme favor for Zhan Tianqi. In addition, he may have a deeper meaning.

However, Gu Chunfeng never regarded himself as a person in the Prince's Mansion. He was always polite and respectful in front of Zhan Tianqi, and did not dare to cross the line at all.

"Sir, does it feel different from the usual time to come to Qikong Bridge this time? The merchants from Yangzhou changed the appearance of this place in just a few months. The various methods they used were unheard of and unheard of, which was really amazing!" Gu Chunfeng said.

Zhan Tianqi smiled and said, "I know that many people are talking about Yingtian these days, saying that the Qinhuai River has come to Liuhe. The daughters and grandmothers of many wealthy families in Yingtian have also run to Liuhe, saying that it is better to buy jewelry and rouge here."

"Isn't it? Now, in the homes of Yingtian, it has become a custom for the master of the family to go to the Six-Arch Bridge. It is not easy for these Yangzhou merchants to do their business this way!" Gu Chunfeng said.

"Mr. Gu, why are you paying attention to business today? I'm afraid there are other meanings behind you, right?" Zhan Tianqi said with his eyes narrowed.

Gu Chunfeng smiled and said, "You can't hide anything from yourselves! I want to tell you that you are a person. This person is only sixteen years old, but now he has a great reputation in Jinling.

He also came from Yangzhou. There is a lot of evidence that the biggest boss behind these Yangzhou businessmen is this person. I even suspect that Nie Yong is also relying on this person. Master, do you think this person is worth paying attention to?"

Zhan Tianqi was slightly stunned and said, "Are you talking about Lu Zheng? Lin'er from the Lu family, indeed, this guy is not bad! Mr. means..."

Gu Chunfeng said: "The East Palace is the time to employ people. The world is so big and there are many talents and heroes. How many talents can the East Palace get, and how many opportunities will the crown prince win in the future.

A talent like Lu Zheng is not only in Jiangnan, but even in Dakang is very impressive. Adults, such talents must not be neglected."

Zhan Tianqi nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Gu, I understand all the truths you said. But I have always had two doubts in my heart. The first doubt is that I heard that this son has a close relationship with the prince of Qin. The prince of Qin gave him a big mansion in Yangzhou.

The second doubt is that this son is a child of the Lu family in Jiangning. The name of Jiangnan Quanjia is a bit sensitive. Although the Eastern Palace is not afraid of those who have ulterior motives gossiping, the prince really wants to attract the children of Jiangnan Quanjia as the heart and humerus. In time, it will inevitably not cause a lot of criticism!"

Gu Chunfeng frowned slightly and said, "Sir, I am ashamed. I have not considered it so thoroughly..."

Zhan Tianqi said again: "Besides, this boy is only in his teens after all, and his fame is just a scholar. With his current status and status, it is not advisable to be too polite.

If he was a Jinshi, I would have reported this to the prince long ago. It would be worth it to let the prince personally surrender!
