    "Zhong'er" At this time, Liu's old voice sounded.  "Mom, why are you here too?" Cheng Zhong said in surprise. It was almost midnight, and Mrs. Liu hadn't rested yet and had been waiting for him.  "It's good to be back. How can you let mother feel relieved when you go out so far away? How can you sleep?" Ms. Liu couldn't help but shed tears in her eyes. After all, this was Cheng Zhongchang's first time traveling far away at his age. Liu said  Mrs. Liu was not worried that it was a lie. When she learned that Cheng Zhong would be back today, Ms. Liu waited until now.  Cheng Zhong didn¡¯t feel anything bad when he was running around outside these days, but now being held by Liu¡¯s hand and being cared for in every possible way, Cheng Zhong felt a warm attachment, a feeling called home.  Because the night was already dark and the people and horses were exhausted due to the long journey, everyone in the Xie family and Cheng Zhong went home to rest.  Xie Mengting will also hold a thank you banquet the next day, mainly to thank the people who generously helped the Xie family this time. After all, Xie Jiangbo was able to collect twenty-five stones of food in such a short period of time. It would have been impossible without help.  of.  Of course, these are things that the Xie family has to worry about, and Cheng Zhong doesn't have the energy to interfere.  Early the next morning, Cheng Zhongxian went to the county government office to meet his mentor Hai Rui. Hai Rui praised Cheng Zhong for delivering the general's rations on time and not missing the important event of the anti-Japanese war.  Hai Rui was not a person who was good at expressing his feelings, but Cheng Zhong could still feel concern from his words.  After traveling to this point, first Liu and then Hai Rui made Cheng Zhong feel deeply cared for.  "Hai Rui was too upright and rarely flexible. In future generations, it would be considered that his emotional intelligence was too low.  Such a person is not suitable for being in the officialdom, but now that he has entered the officialdom and is regarded as an important chess piece, there is no room for retreat.  And with Hai Rui's temper, even if he knew that his fate would be dismissal from office, or even death, he would not evade it.  Cheng Zhong could only do his best to help Hai Rui.  Of course, if Hai Rui is dismissed or resigned, that would actually be the best outcome, because the silk business is already on the right track and has begun to make profits. Cheng Zhong's ability can completely guarantee that Hai Rui will live a worry-free and prosperous life.  Of course, Cheng Zhong still has concerns.  The backers behind the silk business are Hai Rui and Xu Jie.  But Hai Rui's official position is too small, and with the way he is doing it now, he might be fired at some point.  Even if you are not fucked, but are promoted by luck, and a new county magistrate comes, it will be fine if you ignore the silk business, but if you meet an official who is greedy for profit, you will never let him go.  Such a big piece of fat.  At that time, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble out of thin air.  And Xu Jie's official position is high enough, but Cheng Zhong is still not sure whether he can be trusted.  Cheng Zhong has never been in contact with Xu Jie and doesn't know him very well, but he must be an old cunning person who can force Yan Songxu to fight with others fiercely; although Cheng Zhong wants to tie Xu Jie to himself through Xu Kun, but this  Just wishful thinking.  If nothing can be done, Xu Jie can retreat at any time, leaving Cheng Zhong alone.  Therefore, Cheng Zhong did not dare to put all his treasure on Xu Jie. In the end, he still had to rely on himself, so Cheng Zhong was still prepared to try the imperial examination route himself.  Of course, he did not do this just to protect the small world of Huating. A good man has ambitions in all directions. Now that he has traveled here and given him a second chance at life, he does not want to waste it. Life is short.  For several years, Cheng Zhong was not allowed to take his time leisurely, whether it was the Japanese pirates infestation, the people's difficult lives, or the expectations of his relatives.  He wanted to change it through his own efforts, and Cheng Zhong felt that becoming an official through the imperial examination was the most reliable and efficient way.  Since we have decided to still take part in the imperial examination, the question arises, who will take care of the silk business?  This is a problem.  Xie Jiangbo is Xie Mengting¡¯s only son. He will definitely take over the Xie family¡¯s business in the future, so it is not appropriate for him to take care of it.  Xu Kun is a prodigal. Apart from paying him regular dividends, Cheng Zhong doesn't dare to let him interfere with even the slightest thing.  And this guy is also happy and relaxed. If he is asked to manage the affairs of this big beach, I'm afraid he won't be willing!  Xie Sicun is a good choice. Although he is a girl and not very old, he is rich in experience. This is something Cheng Zhong himself laments.  She shows intelligence in the business world as if she was born for it.  But what worries Cheng Zhong is that Xie Sicun¡¯s heart is tied to Lu Duoxun. They say that women who fall in love are blind and crazy.  If one day, she and Lu Duoxun achieve good things, I am afraid that as long as Lu Duoxun says a word, she can even give away her own life. How can she care about giving another fortune at that time.  In that case, Cheng Zhong might be making wedding clothes for Lu Duoxun as he was busy here and there.  After thinking for a while, Cheng Zhong felt that a better way would be to introduce professional experienceThe person is the so-called shopkeeper.  And there is more than one. Cheng Zhong wants to arrange the shopkeepers to be responsible for all aspects of silk production, marketing, transportation and so on. In this way, they can form effective supervision and checks and balances between each other, and there is no need to worry about these shopkeepers.  Will rebel in the future.  Unless all the shopkeepers rebel, for the time being, Xie Sicun will still be in charge.  And this is just a transition. As long as something goes wrong or Cheng Zhong can free his hands, a better solution will definitely be arranged.  Everyone has selfish motives, and Cheng Zhong has never denied that he is a selfish person.  He wants to keep the silk business firmly in his own hands. This is his foundation. If the foundation is unstable, anything he says will be in vain.  Of course, Cheng Zhong now has to solve a thorny problem, and that is Caobang.  Cheng Zhong regarded Caobang as a dangerous road, but he had to go alone.  The reason why the Cao Gang helped the Xie family this time was because Ji Ying was willing to die. Ji Ying was not the leader of the gang, so Cheng Zhong didn't know what impact this would have on him.  So he wanted to visit again, firstly to thank him, and secondly, to help Ji Ying clarify.  Although in Cheng Zhong's mind Ji Ying helped the Xie family because of his love for Xie Sicun, Xie Sicun knew nothing about Ji Ying, let alone admired him. Cheng Zhong did not want this sissy to be implicated.  The Cao Gang is still the Cao Gang before. Cheng Zhong doesn¡¯t know whether this business is good or bad for him.  The Cao Gang has a great reputation, but in the final analysis it is just a gang.  He doesn't act according to common sense at all.  Moreover, each of them has a real thing in their hands. If they really want to turn their backs on each other, their lives will depend on it.  That Ji Ying is very good, but last time he went against the wishes of the gang leader, will he be hit?  Cheng Zhong waited in front of Caobang for a long time, but no one paid attention to him.  The scorching sun made Cheng Zhong sweat constantly.  The longer the time went on, the more uneasy Cheng Zhong felt.  He believed that because of Ji Ying's supportive attitude towards him last time, he would never let himself wait for so long.  It seems that what I was worried about has happened.  Ji Ying's position as the seventh master is probably no longer guaranteed. Now he can only hope that the old gang leader can be merciful and not kill Ji Ying. Then maybe his plea can have some effect.  Of course, he was really not sure how effective Cheng Zhong's plea for mercy would be, but fortunately, Cheng Zhong was not unprepared.  But this is just the final preparation, and Cheng Zhong still doesn¡¯t want to use it unless absolutely necessary.  While Cheng Zhong was thinking wildly, there was a sudden sound, and the gate of Caogang opened, and two teams of powerful men rushed out, holding sharp blades, standing proudly on both sides. It was a very familiar formation, but the man in the center had been changed.
