Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. After Deyue Building closes, the main hall is still brightly lit and there are five tables of wine and food.

Tonight is an annual meeting organized by Zheng Zhi, which is probably a new term brought by Zheng Zhi. Although this activity is not the first to be founded by Zheng Zhi, the name of this annual meeting was the first to be proposed by Zheng Zhi.

There was still heavy snow outside, and the atmosphere in the main hall was very warm. Everyone was smiling, probably because they knew that tomorrow would be the best New Year.

The first table in front of him was naturally sitting Zheng Zhi, Lu Da, Shi Jin, Wang Jin, Lin Chong and coach Zhang. Wang Jin is different from the way Zheng Zhi first met, and he is already the man with the best martial arts skills in Tokyo.

At the second table were Li Er, Niu Da, Hu Jingzhong, Yu Dali, Wu Baoshan, and three other Dutou, as well as several confidants who were following Zheng Zhi at the earliest. Needless to say, Yu Dali and Hu Jingzhong are all Dutou positions now.

Li Er and Wu Baoshan are now considered well-known figures in Weizhou. They are not the notorious name of the gangsters on the street. On the contrary, merchants and government streets are all very well-known. Even the few sluts who followed Zheng Zhi to sell meat are now also in charge of some important matters.

The third table is naturally some of the effective team leaders and Yu Hou in the plot.

At the fourth table, there were chef's account rooms and other people, some heads of the mall, and the heads of the inner and outer halls of Deyue Building.

At the last table, there were some servants sitting in front of him, and even the three servants in Zheng Zhi's family were also listed in the seat.

In front of the main hall, there was a large table, which was piled with white silver, which was as high as half a person, and a stack of red cloth was placed next to it.

Everyone looked at the silver on the big table and smiled happily. The silver was prepared by Zheng Zhi asked Li Er to go there. Everyone didn't know that today's Zheng Daguan wanted to give reward silver. Obviously, this was also a method that Zheng Zhi learned in his previous life.

Zheng Zhi also said the scene and then the banquet began, and everyone came to greet him.

Everyone came forward to toast Zheng Zhi, and Zheng Zhi would praise him, mostly to praise everyone for doing well this year and to continue working hard next year.

The climax of the annual meeting is naturally the reward silver. As expected, everyone has a share. The most is Li Er, who directly gave three hundred taels, and the least was five or six taels.

The troops in the army ranged from seventy to eighty taels to twenty or thirty taels, and even Lin Chong, who was not so familiar with everyone, also gave 150 taels of family payment.

When Lin Chong was in Tokyo, he was considered a wealthy and middle-aged man. He could only buy a thousand guan to buy a treasure knife, but he was not much poorer. Now he has received more than 100 taels of red cloth, and he is still moved. Obviously, there is also a kind of gratitude in this atmosphere.

"Officials, the young man has set up a new house at the beginning of the year, and now he is a glorious family. The young man kowtows to the officials again." After Li Er said that, he knocked on the ground with a loud bang, and Zheng Zhi stepped forward to help him up.

Even if everyone followed suit, most of them came forward to thank Zheng Zhi. The same was true for even the men in the army.

"Mr. Commander, I, Lao Hu, have been in the army for more than ten years. I met such a Shangguan for the first time. Lao Hu thanked me." Lao Hu, who had received eighty taels, could not be moved. Although the treatment of the imperial guards in the family is much better than that of the military men in other places, it is only enough to support the family. When I really have surplus, it is just some rewards for people in the battle formation.

Even a confidant of a young husband like Luda, his income is only enough to spend some money on drinking and eating meat every day, and sometimes he is short of money.

It can be seen that the northwest is really barren compared to Tokyo. If Luda worked in the Tokyo Imperial Army, he could have gained the wealth of Lin Chong before.

Even a good general like Xiaozhong Xianggong. When encountering bandit suppression, the first thing he considers is not to protect the country and the people, but how much money can he get to subsidize military pay. It can be seen that the Northwest Prefecture is really not a wealthy place.

If it were in Tokyo, any literati and small official would not have a wealth of wealth. It can be seen that there were many problems in the Song Dynasty court. The border army would fight bravely with their lives, which was only enough to support their families. Anyone with some tricks in Tokyo would have wealth, and this society was extremely unfair.

Although the main economic centers of the Song Dynasty were Kaifeng Prefecture and Jiangnan, people from the north needed to defend their country. Even though Chao Gai robbed the birthday gift of 100,000 before going to Liangshan, it sounded like a lot, but for Cai Jing at that time, it was really not much money. It was just a birthday gift given to him by others.

However, this birthday gift is a huge sum of money for the people on Shandong. It can support the development funds of a huge copycat.

Even the cost of transporting a huge Taihu stone in the northwest is enough for the military expenditure of the family army for two or three months. How many years have been transported by those Taihu stones of different sizes? How many more are they transported every year? It is so many that it cannot be counted.

The annual meeting ended in such a warm and grateful atmosphere.

Everyone celebrates the New Year happily, but there are a few families who are happy and sad. The Pan family in Weizhou is naturally the one who is worried about the end of the New Year.

Pan Xingguo was really in a dilemma for a long time. Most of his uncles and brothers did not support Pan Xingguo's formation of a caravan to sell wine. Although he knew that these three bowls were best-selling now, he still did not support his whole family doing such things.

It’s not that these people really don’t have the vision. It’s really the world today. Caravans are an industry with extremely high risks. If you don’t say you go out of the detention and go to the Great Liao Dynasty in the Western Xia Dynasty, it is not safe even if you are in the Great Song Dynasty.

In the end, Pan Xingguo was forced to think about it and prepare to do it alone.

On the third day of the Chinese New Year, Pan Xingguo came to Zheng Zhi's mansion to pay a visit with him with a large bag of gifts.

After a greeting and greeting for New Year greetings.

"Has the shopkeeper Pan thought about it?" Zheng Zhi got straight to the point. Two or three months later, Pan Xingguo finally came. If he didn't come yet, Zheng Zhi wanted to find someone else to do this.

"My commander, I have already thought about it. I must do it at this time, but my uncles and brothers in the family do not support it. This is really a dilemma." Pan Xingguo replied, and directly told his real situation. Although the Pan family is mainly Pan Xingguo and the main business management is also Pan Xingguo, the business property is still shared by several houses, but Pan Xingguo's house accounts for the majority.

If these uncles and brothers do not support them, the natural manpower and funds of Pan Xingguo will be a little helpless.

"That's easy to say. As long as Manager Pan joins, it's not enough money. I should pay more for it. But Manager Pan's shares will be less." Zheng Zhi understood the meaning of Pan Xingguo's dialect, and could understand Pan Xingguo's concerns.

Pan Xingguo was also afraid that he was the only one who cooperated with Zheng Zhi, not the entire Pan family, and that there was insufficient human and material resources, so he was afraid that Zheng Zhi would look down on him.

But I don’t know that Zheng Zhi didn’t like the Pan family’s manpower and material resources, but just like Pan Xingguo.

Pan Xingguo was overjoyed when he heard the words. Instead of slowly declining with his uncles and brothers, it would be better to bet with Zheng Zhi. Pan Xingguo really watched Zheng Zhi get up step by step, from a butcher selling meat to a battalion commander under Xiaozhong Gong’s account, the shopkeeper of Wanda Shopping Mall, the owner of Deyuelou, and the master who did not return home.

This speed of rise is that when the story is told to others, no one will believe it.

"Thank you, the commander, for your respect. I will do my best to do this matter and will definitely not let you lose your capital." Although Pan Xingguo was happy, he could not say anything extra. It was the most appropriate to express his confidence and guarantee in his heart.

"Okay, I started doing this at the beginning of the year, and you are responsible for all matters. If you look for someone to write a contract document, you and I will write a black and white text, and one word is determined." Zheng Zhi has always been pragmatic in his work, and he has less polite words, and most of them are straight to the point. Li Er felt this kind of character the most. Instead of nodding and bowing, it is better to do the things that officials have explained directly.

Shortly after the beginning of the year, carpenters in the city came to a big business, and dozens of brand new carriages began to be built everywhere inside and outside the city.

People everywhere in the city purchase slow horses that pull carts at high prices.

The winery that was expanded several times outside the city has been fully operational, and the women and children from nearby villages all come to help.

Zhu Wu from Shaohuashan also received a letter from Zheng Zhi, selecting 100 troops to follow and protect the safety of the caravan. He even named Chen Da to lead the team himself.

A few years ago, Zhu Wu and the other two took two or three hundred minions to Taohua Mountain. The tiger-killing general Li Zhong really sat on Taohua Mountain. Li Zhong originally sold some plasters such as Dali Pills to make a living, and was a real person in the lower class who was really in the world. I think the business was really bad, so he went to Taohua Mountain to drink and eat meat according to the original trajectory.

However, this Taohua Mountain is really poor under Zhou Tong, and the earliest few hundred minions ran away to only about two hundred people.

After hearing Zhu Wu's message, Li Zhong went to Weizhou later and took Zheng Zhi's copycat business policy and returned happily with a thousand taels of silver.

This business policy is also a copy of Shaohua Mountain. It is also in line with Zhou Tong's wishes. It does not require murder and setting fires, nor does it require robbery, and can also make a long-term money passing by. Thank you for not caring how long you will come back next time. You will be slapped again and again, privately ngleel, and sad little bastard. After repeated slapped again and again, several big rewards will be rewarded. Lao Zhu still wants to promote books. I want to explain here that I really need to be kind to others. After all, there will be fewer and fewer people in this circle in the future.
