Chapter 499 Murong Hen

Chapter 499 Murong Hen

Late that night, in the old house of the Zheng family, all the children of the Zheng family gathered together again.

In the corner, where the light cannot reach, there is a paper mouse, huddled up in a ball. There seems to be a faint light emerging from the two small eyes highlighted by ink marks.

Behind these eyes, there is a heart.

"Sure enough, it's the Zheng family. This family is really not worry-free. Unfortunately, they don't know that what they got this time is not a precious treasure, but a life-threatening poison."

Chen Zhi sensed from afar that everyone from the Zheng family was almost here.

"After mastering this link, the entire recipe is almost complete."

Zheng Shi looked at a piece of paper in his hand and handed it to Zheng Lin. The latter nodded slightly and then said: "Now we have almost figured out several key points of papermaking. The next step is to give it a try and see if we can Make a paper like this too.”

Zheng Shi laughed, feeling proud, and then said fiercely: "Not only do we have to get out the paper, but we also have to find a way to make Chen Zhi's paper mill collapse. Otherwise, it won't be easy with him here!"

"I'm afraid it won't be easy." Zheng Lin frowned, "Besides, if you go too far, even if the paper mill collapses, Chen Zhi is still the governor of one party. He has no business, but still has the authority of the government. How do we fight him?"

"Are you insinuating that I lost my official position?" Zheng Shi narrowed his eyes, "Don't think that Chen Zhi can't do anything to him because I have lost the title of Captain. We have General Wang backing us now!"

"Brother, that's not what I meant." Zheng Lin lowered his head and looked humble.

Zheng Shi snorted coldly.

The paper mouse in the corner faithfully recorded everything and transmitted it to Chen Zhi's perception.

"This Zheng Lin's status in the Zheng family has been rising recently. He was originally Zheng Shi's right-hand man, but Zheng Shi was removed from his official position because he offended me. Although he still has a certain influence in the Zheng family because of his direct bloodline, But things are not as they used to be, so the original subordinates have opportunities instead. With Zheng Lin's rise, the two sides have conflicts and are competing with each other. Now Zheng Shi is very energetic, but actually out of disadvantage, so he is angry. Zheng Lin sees Being humble actually gives you an advantage, so there is no need to compete in words.”

As Chen Zhi analyzed, Zheng Shi's attitude in the hall became more and more fierce.

"Okay, okay," Zheng Taigong, who was sitting at the top, shook his head and said, "When did this happen? Why do you brothers have to be so angry? Zheng Shi, what you said is indeed a bit rash. He, Chen Zhi, is no matter what. , he is still the governor of a county, and he still holds the power at the moment, so don’t let your face be broken. Let’s do this. After writing this recipe, sort it out and send it to General Wang so that he can benefit from it.”

"How can this be so!" Zheng Shi's heart skipped a beat, "How great is the benefit of this piece of paper? We all know that Chen Zhi doesn't know how to run it, and he has no connections, so he has lost his voice now, but as long as it is operated by my Zheng family , this situation can change immediately. Accumulating such a large amount of wealth will become the foundation for the growth of the Zheng family, and it will also make the family more valuable to the general. If all is donated, it will win the favor of the general for a while, but as time goes by, It disappeared from the crowd.”

"You still can't see through this." Zheng Taigong shook his head gently, "How could a person like the general be interested in such a small profit? Even if he is interested, it is just to feed the people below, and that Wu Jie, you have been staring here. How can you allow me, the Zheng family, to run it privately? Besides, the most fearful thing about this kind of unique thing is eating alone. Who knows how much more money you make by eating alone? But in the end, money is important. Or is family inheritance important?”

Zheng Shi's face suddenly turned ugly.

Zheng Lin also seized the opportunity and said in an admonishing tone: "Brother, in fact, for this matter, it is best to get enough people to get on the boat together. In this way, my Zheng family will make less money, but it will be more." Be safe, because there will be someone to protect you.”

Others also chimed in, saying that Zheng Lin's suggestion was good and that it was a mature and prudent statement. However, Zheng Shi was hindered by the crowd's words. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he had to suppress his thoughts and bowed his head in silence.

This scene was also captured by Chen Zhi through the paper mouse. "The Zheng family's words and Zheng Lin's singing have probably been convinced by Zheng Lin a long time ago. From this point of view, the Zheng family is not stable, but there is no need for me to get involved in this aspect, because the Zheng family has no Why is it necessary to stay? This family occupies a lot in Dai County, enough to involve the energy of other families, but we still need to find a suitable opportunity..."

Thinking like this, the Zheng family's family meeting quickly came to an end. In the end, Zheng Lin's proposal was approved by most people, and a piece of paper was put together, but it was not perfect yet.

To be on the safe side, the Zheng family did not plan to send it to Wang Jun immediately. They wanted to test it themselves first, but they still sent a convoy to Jixian, led by Zheng Lin, to meet with Wang Jun first and get a feel for what he was talking about.

So early the next morning, Zheng Lin, who had not slept all night, set off on the road with his family's motorcade and drove away from Daijun.

As a stronghold in the frontier, this generation of county has many merchants coming and going. The Zheng family's convoy has a small number of people and limited horses and horses, so it did not attract many people's attention.

However, the people in the convoy did not notice that there was a paper mouse in their car.

After a bumpy ride, the convoy headed straight for Jixian County.

After a while, many servants in Chen Village dispersed and began another day of farming consulting work.

Everything seemed to have returned to calm.

But at the same time, in the General's Mansion in Jixian County, a figure walked out somewhat lost.

This person is clearly Murong Xianbei's young master Murong Huang.

He was walking on the street with a confused look on his face, and many people along the way saw his appearance.

But as soon as he returned to the inn where he was staying, the confusion and despair on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by cruelty and anger!
"What a Wang Jun! What a Duan Bu! He actually made such a request! If I agree, what is the difference between my Murong Department and being annexed by them? How could I agree unless my brain is snatched away by a wolf? They want to take away the demands they may not get even on the battlefield with empty words? Do you think our Murong Division is afraid!"

On the side, two attendants saw their master and were about to come over.

Murong Hao waved his hand, stopped the two of them, sat alone at the table, thought for a while, and finally sneered.

"Perhaps, Wang Jun had no intention of giving me Murong a chance from the beginning!"

Thinking of this, he stood up suddenly, walked to the window, and looked at the night scene outside with a cruel look on his face.

"In that case, let's see you on the battlefield!"

 Thanks to "Gui 0", "mnkhfhks", "There is evil in the writing" and "mnkhfhks" for the rewards!
