Chapter 160 Zhang Ziyun
After Qin Ge left, Shen Bingbing didn't fall asleep all night, and she kept thinking about it in her mind until the morning when she fell asleep because she was too sleepy.
Chinese businessmen have always known what to pay attention to when doing big business. Although it is said that the Qin army will never disturb the people, now that Oakaka Platform has changed hands, these merchants must have asked to see and give some money to rest assured. When the gunshots stopped last night, the merchants sent a guard to investigate the news. Qin Ge dozens of people and dozens of horses, naturally they could not hide it.
Although he was booking this inn, Qin Ge did not restrict others from entering, and the guards were just guarding the stairs.
In the morning, the inn was extremely lively, and the wealthy businessmen on the Bajiaotai gathered at this inn.
"Hey! Boss Wang, why, even you came to Laifu Inn for breakfast?" On a table of Eight Immortals, a slightly rich middle-aged man greeted Wang Caijin who had just entered the door.
Wang Caijin looked over and said, "Oh? Boss Li, I didn't expect you to be earlier than me!"
After Wang Caijin finished speaking, he saw Li Maocai get up and walk towards him, but he knew that Li Maocai must not be coming to him. After turning around, it was Zhang Ziyun, the president of the Chamber of Commerce of Bajiaotai, who was here.
Wang Caijin quickly lowered his head and bowed, saying, "I didn't expect President Zhang to come."
Zhang Ziyun is the president of the Chamber of Commerce of Oakyoda. His son Zhang Tian went to the United States to study, so all the businesses that Oakyoda has to be managed by the Zhang family. The Zhang family has always been the largest family in Oakyoda. Compared with other families, the Zhang family has not many guards, only about a dozen, but they are all skilled people. Everyone has a foreign gun, which is a three-pointer for the government.
"Haha, they are all from the village, why do you have to be so polite?" Zhang Ziyun laughed twice with a hearty smile.
Wang Caijin and Li Maocai raised their heads and found that Zhang Tian was also coming. At the same time, another discovery made their mouths open in an O-shaped shape. Zhang Ziyun and Zhang Tian, who usually wear hats, were surprisingly not wearing hats, and their braids were gone! When they looked at the guards who followed, the braids on their heads were cut off!
Wang Caijin and Li Maocai looked at each other and smiled bitterly twice when they saw each other's long braids. It seemed that they were really not as good as the Zhang family.
The inn owner saw Zhang Ziyun's short hair and was so shocked that he couldn't speak. The proprietress pulled his sleeve and lowered her voice and said, "Isn't this President Zhang of the Chamber of Commerce?"
"Shhh~~, don't talk nonsense, our shop can't be opened in just one word."
When the people in the inn saw Zhang Ziyun, they all stood up and saluted, saying "President Zhang." Each of them said, "President Zhang." However, when they saw Zhang Ziyun's short hair, they were all shocked.
"I didn't expect that everyone came so early, it was too late for me to arrive." Zhang Ziyun clasped his fists and said with politeness. After saying that, his eyes looked at the two guards standing straight at the stairs, and said, "It seems that it's not too late!"
"Not too late, no time," everyone said one after another.
Zhang Ziyun and his son found a table to sit down, and then asked the shop to serve some refreshments. After a while, Zhang Tian stood up and walked towards the stairs. Except for Zhang Ziyun, the rest of the people turned their eyes to Zhang Tian. They originally thought of two gatekeepers to explore the news, but when they saw their expressions, no one dared to go up.
Zhang Tian walked to the stairs, took out two ingots of silver from his sleeve, and handed it to Jiang Fei and Wu Kun who were guarding the stairs with a smile, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, can you inform your superiors of the situation and say that President Zhang of the Octagonal Taiwan Chamber of Commerce is asking for a meeting?"
Jiang Fei said, "Put your money." After that, he walked upstairs. The two of them had long guessed the identities of these people. Last night, the inn owner said that business was deserted, and so many people came today. You can tell who these people at a glance. When the young master was in Dalian, the merchants from Fuzhou all came to find the young master, but in fact they were just for peace of mind.
"Miss Chen? Miss Chen?" Qin Ge knocked on Shen Bingbing's door twice, but did not respond. Did he leave?
Jiang Fei happened to see Qin Ge in the corridor and said, "Young Master, a group of businessmen are coming downstairs."
"Oh? Merchants? These merchants are so well-informed?" Qin Ge was very surprised at the quick reaction of these merchants.
"Two people even had their braids."
"Oh?" This surprised Qin Ge a little, "Go and have a look."
Zhang Tian returned to his seat and called out "Dad."
Zhang Ziyun said: "How is it?"
"They don't charge money, but they went upstairs. Probably..."
"Here you come." Zhang Ziyun said and stood up.
When Qin Ge went down the stairs, he saw Zhang Ziyun and his son at a glance. Two people without braids were particularly eye-catching among the bunches. Qin Ge went down the stairs and everyone was already following Zhang Ziyun.
Zhang Ziyun bowed his fists and said, "This boss, I am Zhang Ziyun, the president of the Octagonal Taiwan Chamber of Commerce. Last night, I learned that the President had taken the Octagonal Taiwan table and specially cut off his braids to come to visit."
After Zhang Ziyun said this, the other businessmen wanted to cut off their scissors and then immediately.
Qin Ge could see that the braids of the Zhang family father and son had been cut off for a long time, and they were definitely not cut last night. This Ziyun is definitely a person who knows how to judge the situation.
In fact, after Qin Ge obtained Taiwan and the Liaodong Peninsula, Zhang Ziyun cut off his braids under his son's persuasion. Zhang Tian had been studying in the United States and went to Hawaii during his period. He was quite familiar with the military power of Hawaii. After returning to China, he conducted some investigations and knew the military strength of the Qing Dynasty. Qin Ge continued to increase troops to the Liaodong Peninsula, with obvious intentions, so he had long persuaded his father to stand on Qin Ge's side.
"Hahaha," Qin Ge laughed twice, "I am just a small platoon leader, and I only have forty or fifty people under my command. I can't be regarded as the chief, I can't be regarded as the chief."
Forty or fifty people killed almost 150 Qing soldiers in the town, and everyone had a new understanding of the Qin family army.
"Platform leader, I came here to ask for a visit today, mainly to send some money and goods to the adults on behalf of Bajiaotai Town to comfort the adults' soldiers. Secondly, the adults wiped out the Qing soldiers last night, but did not clear the barracks. I ordered people to get all the muskets in the barracks and be outside." Zhang Ziyun said.
The rest of the people were extremely surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ziyun actually asked someone to bring all the arms in the barracks. And now in this situation, he must be targeting the Qin army. Zhang Ziyun's vision has always been very accurate. It seems that he has to cut off the braid after going back.
Everyone was very calm in the inn, but if they knew that there were more than forty rifles with security on their safety aimed at them in the dark, they would probably not be so calm.
