When Zhao Nanxing came to visit, Zhong Yuzheng naturally did not dare to refuse to see him. While coughing, he entered the secret room with Zhao Nanxing.

In less than a stick of incense, Zhao Nanxing left Zhong Mansion with a expressionless face.

Zhong Yu was standing under the eaves, with a serious expression.

"Sir." A middle-aged man stood beside him and bowed slightly.

Zhong Yu was turning his head to look at him and said, "You have heard it?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Sir, I think Mr. Zhao is right. If the Ministry of Works is too much of a move, you will be the one who will bear the greatest responsibility."

Zhong Yu frowned, his expression unhappy.

The middle-aged man looked calm and said, "Sir, the matter of canal transportation is complicated, just click it."

Zhong Yu was silent for a while and said, "Okay, prepare the sedan chair. I will check the yamen while I am sick."

"It's an adult."

Zhou Yingqiu took over the power of the Ministry of Works, so he naturally opened up and closed. Although it was for the sake of the "Empress", he could not help but carry private goods and impose his personal will on the entire Ministry of Works. Even if this happened, his voice in the Ministry of Works would not be less than that of Wang Shunding.

He kept listening to the yamen runners' report, and he recorded the problems in the books in various places one by one, and he knew the seized ships and goods.

"Sir, Lord Shangshu is here."

I don’t know how long it took, but a yamen runs in and says anxiously.

Zhou Yingqiu's brows moved slightly, thinking in his heart, and stood up and said, "Okay, I will go and greet you now."

"Mr. Zhong." Zhou Yingqiu met Zhong Yuzheng in the yard.

Zhong Yu coughed with his fist at his mouth, looked around, and said in an official spirit: "Go in and say."

Zhou Yingqiu was secretly thinking about Zhong Yu's purpose of coming back. He agreed and followed him into the house.

The two sat opposite each other, Zhong Yu was asking about the affairs of the Ministry of Works for a while, and then he said with a slightly calming expression: "The matter of canal transportation is already very hot, and the capital city is talking about it. If this continues, our Ministry of Works will not be able to bear it."

Zhou Yingqiu frowned and said with a embarrassed look: "Sir, the emperor has come out to express his order. If my Ministry of Works does not make any noise, it will be difficult to explain."

Zhong Yu was nodding, looking heart-wrenching: "Now the canal transportation is stagnant, and the court officials are talking. I am not at ease even at home. Lord Zhou must find a way to clear it up."

Zhou Yingqiu naturally understood the meaning of Zhong Yu’s “unlocking”, but he still pretended to be confused: “I wonder what the unlocking meaning of the unlocking meaning of the unlocking?”

When Zhong Yu saw Zhou Yingqiu being so obedient, he felt relieved. He raised his body and said, "Mr. Zhou, my intention is to examine what should be examined and what should be investigated, but the grain transportation cannot be stopped!"

Zhou Yingqiu pondered for a while and said, "Sir, should I let some of you go first?"

Zhong Yu was nodding and said, "Let the less guilty ones go first. No matter what, the canal transportation cannot be blocked. This year's canal transportation is imminent. If it really delays, your and my future will be gone."

Zhou Yingqiu was silent for a long time and said, "My lord understands what he meant. In a few days, the lord will gather all the canal transport merchants, scold them, and give them a release document."

Zhong Yuzheng shook his head slightly and said, "It's too late, so a batch will be released today. If they have any problems, they will deal with it later."

Zhou Yingqiu looked even harder and hesitated and refused to speak.

Zhong Yuzheng also knew that the Ministry of Works was too big this time, and doing so would indeed damage his majesty. He said in a serious mood: "Mr. Zhou, a group of people must be released today, and the transportation of canals must not be stagnant for one day."

Zhou Yingqiu looked at Zhong Yuzheng and knew that he had settled his mind. He hesitated and said, "Okay, the official will find some suitable ones, and will ask them to submit the review documents and stamp them with my seal to release them."

When Zhong Yu saw Zhou Yingqiu agreeing, he did not notice the subtext in his words. He coughed again and said, "Okay, then I will go back and take care of my illness."

Zhou Yingqiu quickly stood up and said, "I am honored to see you off."

Zhong Yu was leaving, and a thin figure slowly walked out from behind the bookshelf and said shrillly: "Mr. Zhou is a good method, so he will take all the power of the review of the canal transportation in his hands."

Zhou Yingqiu also looked proud on his face. Now the canal ships must have his seal when entering and leaving the port. He just hesitated and pretended that he wanted power from Zhong Yuzheng.

He quickly restrained his face and raised his hand slightly and said, "Let my father-in-law laugh, the things my father-in-law wants can be prepared immediately."

Feng Zhu nodded and looked at Zhou Yingqiu with a meaningful smile, taking out the seal and covering it on the document in front of him.

Zhou Yingqiu was busy for a while before handing a stack of documents to Feng Zhu, saying, "Eunuch Feng, as long as you go to the Ministry of Revenue again, Huiyun Shipping is the only ship that can leave the port at present."

Feng Zhu took it with a smile, and then said, "It seems that it won't take long to make the Ministry of Works. Master Zhou's final decision."

Zhou Yingqiu was shocked and looked at Feng Zhu and said, "What does Eunuch Feng mean?"

Feng Zhu waved his hand and said, "Sir, don't panic. The official wants to congratulate you. You will be promoted soon."

Zhou Yingqiu immediately received a hint and hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, my father-in-law, for your advice. I will definitely do my best to do my best to do my best to do my best to the Empress, and I will never dare to make any mistakes!"

Feng Zhu nodded and smiled, leaving with the clerk.

Zhou Yingqiu saw Feng Zhu away, and then he felt that he had something in his words, but he couldn't guess what it meant.

Feng Zhu quietly left the Ministry of Works, and then entered the Ministry of Revenue silently. He soon came out with a stack of documents and headed straight for Zhou Jianyu's silk shop.

As soon as Zhou Jianyu received two review documents, he was overjoyed and immediately contacted all partners.

For three consecutive days, Zhou Jianyu was acquiring ships and recruiting crew members. At the same time, the chamber of commerce distributed "business cards" at each terminal.

Now there are rumors everywhere, and there are many ships for sale, but they are all small boats. However, Zhou Jianyu still purchased nearly 100 ships of all sizes through various methods. Some were idle by sea transportation, some were confiscated by the Ministry of Works, and some were not canal transportation, but ordinary ships, which were collected by Zhou Jianyu to expand the fleet.

At this time, except for Huiyun Ship, no other ships could leave the port, and all the ships heading north were detained, so there was no worry about business. In the blink of an eye, Huiyun Ship in the large yard not far from the wharf was crowded with people.

Zhou Jianyu immediately took out the contract, looking fair and kind, but took over all their business for the next three years.

At this moment, Zhu Xu in the palace was in a bad mood. Even if a lot of profitable books were placed in front of him, he had no intention of looking through them.

News came from the Qianqing Palace that Zhu Youxiao intended to designate Zhang Yanyao as the "Selected Service".

Zhu Xu had always hesitated about dealing with Wei Zhongxian. If Zhang Yanyao became the attendant, she would not be able to touch him easily.
