After the introduction of Butler Xiao Zhou, Mr. Zhang was naturally impatient to deal with them.

And if Zhang Xuan and others are here, how can these gentry and merchants communicate with Butler Xiao Zhou?!

So he drank three cups of tea with everyone and stuttered some food, and said that he would discuss the confidentiality with the two adults and leave the seat.

Several wealthy merchants in the capital also said that the survey of the wharf area was very tired recently, and they followed suit and left the seat.

The merchants and gentry all stood up and couldn't hide their smiles and kept them a few words, and greeted them with polite words.

Then, like a hungry wolf, he began to wander around Butler Xiao Zhou.

Although these gentry and wealthy merchants are now squeaking their hearts, they can still greet Butler Zhou with a calm and smiling face.

Just one or two, both of them seemed so attentive...

To put it this way, the young talent of Jinshan Gong is a handsome talent. I have a headache when I manage silk and satin, but I don’t know if Jinshan Gong can share my worries?!

That one simply said: Oh, I still have a little girl in my husband's family who has never married...

In short, everyone can see that the person who is in charge is probably because the little butler Zhou Jinshan has not run away.

So there are those who should be praised, those who should be suggested, and those who should be suggested, as well as those who should be married to their daughter and get the support of this Xiao Zhou housekeeper.

Although they are in northern Guangdong, Mr. Zhang’s name and ability, they know much more than the young and old in the capital!

They all traveled through the sea, so they would naturally have to deal with Fusang when they went to Fusang to go to Fusang.

Mr. Zhang is a living god in Fusangna. The people of Fusang even set up temples for him, which is called a Buddha of all living families!

His cheap father-in-law was also a king of Fusang, who was enthroned by the empire. He wore more than 80,000 armor on his hands and is now the only one in the whole of Fusang.

The father-in-law is older, with only the only daughter, Princess Fusang who follows Mr. Zhang.

The whole of Fusang knew that in the future, His Royal Highness, this princess, would go back to inherit the position of general.

Why?!

Because even if there are any signs of opposing His Highness to take over the position, his father-in-law has basically been killed by his father-in-law.

All his family and subordinates were sent to the Fusang silver mine under the name of Yuchihu, and brought it to him to mine.

"Everyone, where is the dock..."

Who is Mr. Xiao Zhou?! This is specially trained by Mr. Zhang. Although Mr. Xiao Zhou learns the skills of serving others without a teacher.

But this plan was a must for Mr. Xiao Zhou to say that he was no worse than any of the disciples of the young master.

He managed the three major car dealers, and he managed the three major ready-to-wear businesses.

He focused on building the entire newly built Zhangjiazhuang, and even the Chaobaihe Wharf was built bit by bit.

There is also the dam of the Ordnance Construction Bureau, which was built little by little by little by little by Zhou Jinshan.

The amount of money you have made is millions of taels of money. In the eyes of our butler Xiao Zhou, the gentry and businessman in northern Guangdong are just a local gangster.

"You can invest in shares, but the qualifications for investing need to be evaluated!"

After hearing what Xiao Zhou said, these gentry and merchants were thinking a lot.

Could it be...Is this what we want to give up our quota before we can put down our quota?!

"You are all famous families and good people, so this assessment is naturally not a problem."

Butler Xiao Zhou has developed his current demeanor, and he naturally has the style of Mr. Zhang.

But he saw him smiling and looking at everyone and said, "But, Lord Governor, Lord Governor, I'm afraid I'm a little worried..."

Worry?! Could it be that they are going to get bored?!

"Mr. Jinshan, I believe you have some insight into this joint?! Please give me some advice!"

While the others were still thinking, the old man, who was one year old, who looked nearly seventy, twisted his beard and smiled at the housekeeper Xiao Zhou.

Looking at the old man, Butler Xiao Zhou, I also felt very moved. I am worthy of being the top figure in Yangcheng.

After several generations of family traveling to the sea, His Majesty Yongle saw that he sold Chen Zuyi for a return of glory.

He also used his merits to open up the sea route, and he had become the leader of the northern Guangdong sea merchants after several generations.

Tong Shang and Tong Chengchun are indeed very vicious and difficult to deal with.

"It's so that the old man knows that the two adults are not in northern Guangdong now."

Butler Xiao Zhou's heart naturally could not be missing any trace, although he had a long circle in his heart.

But he didn't bring out his face at all and said with a smile: "The examination of the Ministry of Personnel's Gongcai Department is about to begin..."

As soon as these gentry and merchants immediately understood, it turned out that their roots were here!

In fact, gentry and merchants are all scholars. In this era, scholars are not doing business.

If you are just a scholar, you must be a scholar. If you don’t have a reputation, you will be punished by a yamen runner.

Those who can get along are either their ancestors who have passed on their martial achievements, or their fathers and grandparents have been appointed as Jinshi Juren.

Many of them are juren themselves, and the second most is also a scholar.

So they naturally knew the situation of the class exam.

During the Han Dynasty, Xun Zhongyu wrote "Han Ji·Emperor Ai Ji" and said:

"Then the wise men who established the princes thought they were pastoral, so they gave up their achievements and promoted them, and did not govern their policies and did not control their people."

The worst thing about taking the class exam is to face dismissal, which is a very bad thing.

The Ming Dynasty rarely dismisses unless it makes a big mistake and offends people very much.

The second most common one is "successful officials", which gives you a decent retirement opportunity.

Generally speaking, this situation is about the same age, and its political achievements are considered to be middle-level or even middle-level.

Then don’t stay in the position, hurry up and go home and ate the rice.

The third type is flat adjustment. This type is not old and has excellent political achievements, but can only be considered a middle-level one.

The best part of the middle and upper part is steady promotion, perhaps the job adjustment may be transferred to other governors and positions in the two capitals.

Of course, the most powerful one must be "excellent".

Zhang Hengshan, a Jinshi in the 20th year of Chenghua, was "promoted" at that time and went directly to the top second-rank senior.

But this is the first in the national exam, and the Ministry of Personnel says that the whole country will follow.

"This wharf is naturally classified as a test class, but the fields are…"

But he saw Butler Xiao Zhou stroked his forehead and sighed: "Your Majesty asked my young master to go to the palace to get angry..."

"The world has not increased since the Hongwu period, but it has actually lost half of the land..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the gentry and merchants immediately looked bad.

No one of them has ever committed the encroachment of land and acres, but none of them are clean.

More importantly, everyone in the Ming Dynasty valued land very seriously!

Even if they are the maritime businessmen who make a fortune in the ocean, what is the first thing they do when they earn money?!

Buy land! Buy a lot of land, try hard to buy land for your own home and buy a house.

Even those who started their business do this, you can imagine how others will do it.

Therefore, throughout the Ming Dynasty, and even extended to the later Qing and Republic of China periods, the desire for land and desire were almost engraved in the bones.

Seeing that they were no longer attentive, they showed hesitation on their faces, but Butler Xiao Zhou didn't care much either.

He looked at them with a smile and said softly: "You don't have to worry, you can still do business..."

"If you want to understand the dock planning, you can take a look at the sand table..."

As he said that, butler Xiao Zhou turned around and raised his hand, and ordered someone to lift a huge sand table that had been made.

Looking at the sand table, these local bumpkins in northern Guangdong immediately swallowed their saliva.

They have never seen this Western scenery before!

The sand table is about six feet long and three feet wide, and is in the shape of a long cabinet.

The six people in front and back must be carefully lifted with four corners and the middle support feet before they can be transported to this game and put them down.

Looking at the lifelike pier, river surface, houses, streets, etc. on it, these local bullies in northern Guangdong were all stunned!

Although this sand table is simple if people from later generations have to look at it, it cannot resist these local locals in northern Guangdong that have never seen it!

"Let's have a look..."

Butler Xiao Zhou took out his baton from under the stage and lit the dock and drew it.

"According to the design plan, the dock mainly uses new cement materials, supplemented by the fine steel made by the foundry department of the Ordnance Construction Bureau as its bones..."

They knew about this cement. After all, if you know Chaobaihe Wharf, you will naturally know about cement.

But they can't use this cement, because the construction of the capital itself is not enough.

Almost where to order the cement before it was shipped out of the factory, it was poured out on a large area of ​​Hulala on the Tianjin Fort.
