As the saying goes, one word woke up the dreamer. Zhou Shixiong did not realize that he had gone astray at all. He was still complacent about the progress of the previous plan. After reminding Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang, he realized that the problem was big!

It is true that Xiangzhou belongs to Zhennan Hou Mansion, but the fief does not equal territory. The power given to Zhou Shixiong by Emperor Chongzhen naturally disappeared with Zhou Shixiong's death. His son Zhou Hu only inherited the Lord Zhennan Hou and the fief, and did not inherit the power that Zhou Shixiong had at the beginning.

Now everything in Xiangzhou is changed according to Zhou Shixiong's intentions because the military and political affairs of Xiangzhou are in the hands of Zhou Shixiong. If the imperial court issued an order to be promoted to Chongguang and work in the capital, regardless of whether the official position is accepted or not, the governor of Xiangzhou will definitely be replaced. Similarly, Zhou Wu may also be promoted and transferred to Zhou Shixiong. At that time, why should Zhou Shixiong stop such changes?

The more I think about Zhou Shixiong, the more I feel sad. He seemed very glorious in the Vietnam-North Korea, but the one who supports him was based on Xiangzhou, and Xiangzhou would be taken away from him at any time. If he loses the financial and military power of Xiangzhou, who would care about Zhou Shixiong? It is amazing to regard him as a miracle doctor.

"Why did my aunt teach me?" Zhou Shixiong understood that his situation was not as beautiful as he imagined. He bowed to Ruan Phuket very respectfully and asked what to do.

"Hongchang is a good name, so I simply forgot about Zhou Ziqi's identity. Wouldn't it be good to be Hongchang from now on?" Ruan Phuket Ah Jiang did not give Zhou Shixiong advice, but instead advised him to abandon his past and become a new person.

If Zhou Shixiong could be a new person, he would have done it long ago, and the problem would not be possible! His purpose was to make trouble in the Vietnamese and Northern Dynasties was not to develop here, but to find a way out for the future. He had long confirmed that the Vietnamese and Northern Dynasties were just a springboard, and leaving the mainland through the Vietnamese and Northern Dynasties was the ultimate goal. It would be fine to ask him to help Nguyen Phucauds to sell himself to Nguyen Phucauds, and it would be impossible to be a local emperor like the lord of the Northern Dynasties in the future.

"I'm not intimate. Since I can abandon the glory and wealth of the third-class lords of the Ming Dynasty, I will not have any thoughts about the lords of the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty. The reason why I wanted this place was to train sailors and prepare for going to sea and ocean in the future." Zhou Shixiong honestly confessed to Nguyen Phuc Ah Jiang that he needed Nguyen Phuc Ah Jiang's help, and his ideas did not harm his adoptive father at all, and he was not afraid of telling the truth.

"Why?" Ruan Phuket A Jiang was very curious. Why did Zhou Shixiong, the Zhennan Hou, who had just entered the glorious life, take the initiative to give up his aristocratic identity that could be passed down for generations and come to the Northern Dynasty to make trouble?

"Oh, this matter is a long story." In order to win the trust of Ruan Phuc Ajiang, the mother-in-law and the concubine, Zhou Shixiong told the Ming Dynasty that Jiannu had invaded the capital. He had no idea of ​​keeping the secret for the motherland.

"The Ming Dynasty is so unbearable?" Ruan Phuket Ajiang could not believe that the Ming Dynasty was so down and out. Jiannu could have been in the capital for several months with just 100,000 troops, and also plundered a large amount of materials, money and population. This news was really amazing.

"It is impossible to say whether the Ming Dynasty is unbearable, but it is certain that the Ming Dynasty's officialdom is hopeless. The capital of a country has suffered heavy damage, and the court ministers are still entangled in the theoretical issue of civil and noble martial arts. They don't seem to be worried that the Ming Dynasty, which is not protected by force, will be invaded and occupied by others. What happened in the past few months seems to have become history and has nothing to do with the present world. Alas, how dare I stay in such a place? How far can I run the right way? Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen sent someone to arrest me into the capital, which made me have to pretend to die to avoid disaster." Zhou Shixiong said everything he should say. He can't be free now and was scared by the person he might become a rootless person.

"I'm still saying the same thing. If you give up Zhou Ziqi's shameful identity and be Ji Hongchang well, you will have everything you want, maybe better than expected." After inquiring about the gossip, Ruan Phuc Ajiang re-tweeted the topic and reiterated his point of view. The problem is that Zhou Shixiong couldn't figure out how to be Ji Hongchang well. He looked at Ruan Phuc Ajiang with a confused look on his face, waiting for her to make it clear.

Ruan Phuket shook his head with a smile, "You, you are so smart and decisive in normal times, why don't you know this? Zhou Ziqi is nominally dead. If you no longer regard yourself as the marquis of the Ming Dynasty, the owner of Xiangzhou, isn't Ji Hongchang the Lang Sang Mansion Mansion's identity better? You can have a legitimate business path. Even if you want an island to build ships and operate shipping, it's just a matter of one sentence. The Marquis of the Ming Dynasty who wants an island in the Northern Dynasty may have to fight a big battle. The Lang Sang Mansion's Mansion wants an island, and you will have it just by saying it to the Lord of Guangning Mansion. You don't understand yet?"

I understand, it turns out that what Nguyen Phu Ah Jiang talks about is the issue of identity. No matter how noble the name Zhou Shixiong is in the Ming Dynasty, he is still a foreigner in the eyes of Nguyen Phu Ah Jiang. Ji Hongchang is different. The adopted son of the Lord of Lang Sang Palace is still from the Ming Dynasty, but his identity is already from Jiaozhi. With the relationship between Nguyen Phu and Chen Rien, it is really a matter of helping his adopted son to have an uninhabited island, even if the adopted son is from the Ming Dynasty, it is fine.

"Is it a little bad for my adoptive father just doing this?" If Zhou Shixiong seriously manages Ji Hongchang's identity, he will definitely take more power from Nguyen Phuc Bao. In this way, Nguyen Phuc Bao's loss will be great. Because Zhou Shixiong's purpose is to leave rather than take root, under this premise, the more he takes from Nguyen Phuc Bao, the greater the loss of Nguyen Phuc Bao.

"It's wrong for you to think so. You took Tingli Town from your adoptive father, but the one you gave him was a mansion. I don't think anyone would be unhappy with this kind of return. As long as you help your adoptive father take down Xuan Guang Mansion, what's the matter if you give Lang San Mansion to you? Don't always be stubborn." Ruan Phuket cursed with a smile. She was very happy. Whether it was true or false, Zhou Shixiong could think that he could not deceive his elder brother, so his adopted son would be forbidden to be wrong.

Zhou Shixiong nodded, as long as he brought more benefits to Nguyen Phuc, everything would be easy. "Auntie, the child has been taught." Zhou Shixiong wanted to get through the joints, so he knelt down and kowtowed to Nguyen Phuc, thanking Nguyen Phuc for waking him up and avoiding a great loss in the future.

"Get up, I have something to tell you." Ruan Phuket raised his hand to ask Zhou Shixiong to stand up, and then took out a contract letter, "First a villain and then a gentleman. No matter what the future, I will account for 10% of your business. I will pay the money to pay. The profits cannot be shortened."

Ruan Phuc Ajiang acts like you are relying on you to support her in the future. Zhou Shixiong feels very heartwarming, and his eyes are red. He kneels down for Ruan Phuc Ajiang again, "I remember the great kindness of my aunt. No matter what happens in the future, the child will regard her aunt as her own mother." Ruan Phuc Ajiang is nearly fifty years old and treats Li Jie as his biological daughter, otherwise he would not take care of Zhou Shixiong like this.

"I did so much to make Tiaotiao better. You are his husband, who will I help you!" Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang stood up and walked to Zhou Shixiong, gently patting Zhou Shixiong on the shoulder, "As long as you are good to Tiaotiao and never forget the friendship between father and son, I will support you whatever you do." This is Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang's guarantee to Zhou Shixiong. With this sentence, Zhou Shixiong was really relieved.

Although Nguyen Phuc Ah Jiang helped Zhou Shixiong point out the loopholes, Zhou Shixiong still needed to do the work of filling the loopholes himself. Zhou Shixiong ordered Ma San to send a letter to Guan Chongguang and Li Fusheng, asking them to come to Langshan City as soon as possible to discuss matters.

Since he planned to do Ji Hongchang seriously, Zhou Shixiong certainly had to change his current attitude. The next morning, Zhou Shixiong finished his good morning to Nguyen Phuc and took the initiative to ask for arranging work. "Entertainment Father, Hongchang thought it through clearly, but he would do his best if he was sent."

"Okay, since Hongchang is willing to do things, the auction will be handed over to you. For my father, I only have to leave it to you. After all, this is your first idea." It is inevitable that Ruan Phuc will hand over the auction to Zhou Shixiong. Although he has broken the plan, he has no idea how to operate it. He can't even understand the knowledgeable former businessman like him. Who can he hand it over to if he doesn't hand it to Zhou Shixiong?

"Entertainment father, Hongchang didn't know much about the wealthy merchants in the Northern Dynasty. Which one should I ask for? I also asked his adoptive father to arrange a wide-ranging and well-informed assistance." Zhou Shixiong's request was very reasonable. Ruan Phucbao thought about a little bit and assigned the senior manager to him.

Zhou Shixiong returned to the room, and after a while, the senior manager came to report. The senior manager was just the housekeeper in charge of the house. He heard from the master that he asked him to do things with Young Master Ji in the future, which was equivalent to a new master, so how could he dare to be disrespectful?

"Executive manager, don't ask what Daming is called?" Zhou Shixiong had known this senior manager for a long time, but he had never known what he was called. Now, it is necessary to do things together and understand each other.

"Young Master Ji is polite. The youngest is called Gao Fu. I am ordered by Master Ji to work with him in the future. I dare not be a senior manager or something. Just call him Gao Fu." Gao Fu is a person with clear eyes. Ji Hongchang suddenly became favored. He had already inquired about the news. Although it was impossible to know the specific details, it must be related to the master's visit to Taiyuan Prefecture. I guess he helped the master a lot in Taiyuan Prefecture, otherwise the master would not have to spoil him so much.

Gao Fu guessed most of the facts based on some rumors and was a master of story-making. Fortunately, story-making is just Gao Fu's personal hobby. He was able to serve as a foreign affairs steward in the mansion's head's office because of his ability to socialize and socialize. After so many years, he was a steward and knew the wealthy merchants of the Northern Vietnamese government. Zhou Shixiong handed over the work of pulling the list and asked him to write down all the famous miners and timber merchants of the Northern Vietnamese, so that Zhou Shixiong could prepare invitations.

In fact, Zhou Shixiong's work was not complicated. Nguyen Phucauld visited Guangning Prefecture, Beijiang Prefecture and Taiyuan Prefecture. Even if it did not attract other people's attention at the beginning, where was Beijiang Prefecture? This was the base area for resisting Zheng Zai. Not only did Zheng Zai arrange people to monitor Zheng Lisheng here, but many forces who were ready to make choices also arranged spies. As a result, Nguyen Phucauld's high-profile visit spread throughout the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty. Correspondingly, the word auction appeared in the mouths of various people for the first time.
