Film and TV time travel: reselling supplies as soon as the end of the world

Chapter 245 I didn’t expect that he was a sea merchant

Zhou Yang and Pang Yuyao were chatting in the pavilion, waiting for Wang Mengqiu to arrive. After a while, a servant came running over to report: "Sir, Shen Zhenghao wants to see you!"

"Shen Zhenghao?" Zhou Yang was stunned when he heard the name and couldn't remember it for a while.

"Sir, he said that you asked him to come to your house today."

After listening to the servant's explanation, Zhou Yang slapped his forehead. It turned out that the father of the kid who rode the bike yesterday had come. "Let him in!"

When Pang Yuyao heard someone was coming, she wanted to get up from Zhou Yang's legs, but was held down by Zhou Yang.

Shen Zhenghao walked through the front yard and stood outside the pavilion where Zhou Yang was. He bowed to Zhou Yang and said, "I, Shen Zhenghao, greet Lord Zhou. Thank you for sparing my son's life."

Yesterday, when Shen Yu returned home, he told his father about how he almost ran into Zhou Yang. After hearing this, Shen Zhenghao almost beat Shen Yu to death.

Zhou Yang is now the local emperor of Lin'an City. His own son dared to insult Zhou Yang. Shen Zhenghao did not sleep all night. He prepared silver and came to the door of Zhou Mansion early the next morning. But the gatekeeper did not let him in, and he has been waiting until now.

"Mr. Shen, you need to take good care of your son!"

"Master Zhou is right! I will discipline him when I return!"

"I heard from your son that you came to my house before. I wonder what business you are in?"

"I'm doing maritime business, buying some things from nearby towns and selling them overseas." Shen Zhenghao said truthfully. These things can be found with just a simple search, so there is no need to hide them.

When Zhou Yang heard that this guy was actually a seafarer, he immediately became interested: "Oh? Doing business at sea? You have a ship?"

When Shen Zhenghao heard Zhou Yang ask this, his heart tightened. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I do have two boats."

Zhou Yang laughed: "Don't be nervous, Mr. Shen. I don't mean to rob your boat. I don't like your two small boats. I'm just interested in your sailing. Which countries do you often go to? Tell me about it."

Hearing that Zhou Yang was not planning to take his ship, Shen Zhenghao breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, I don't go there very often, only two or three times a year. I often go to Korea, Fuso, Java, and some inconspicuous small tribes."

"Oh? He's been to quite a few places. Mr. Shen must have made a lot of money from these small countries over the years!"

Shen Zhenghao was not very happy, but sighed distressedly and said: "Alas, the business on the sea is not as profitable as Lord Zhou thought. Pirates often appear on the sea. People like me who are relatively lucky can pay some money and give them some goods to survive safely. Some people even lose their lives at sea."

Zhou Yang frowned, "Really? It's okay to write that they are all Japanese?"

"Not entirely."

Seeing Shen Zhenghao's wry smile, Zhou Yang thought that there might be some Han Chinese among them. He already had a preliminary understanding of the current situation at sea.

He now owns Lin'an Prefecture, and the Qiantang River is not far away. It is really very simple to build a pier on the Qiantang River. The only problem is the ships.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang wanted to quickly get Xiao Hong to work, and let her start working on the steam engine and build a steam engine ship. After the steam engine was built, there was also a shipbuilder who built the ship, so he asked:

"I wonder if Mr. Shen built his own boat or bought it?"

"In reply to Lord Zhou, my boat was custom-made by a shipbuilder in Fujian Province."

“Oh, you’ve also been to Fujian?”

Shen Zhenghao smiled awkwardly: "Of course I have been there. Every time I go out to sea, I need to go to the port there to resupply."

After Zhou Yang nodded, he asked some questions about Fujian Province, and specifically asked Shen Zhenghao about building ships.

After the two chatted casually for a few more words, Zhou Yang found that Wang Mengqiu had arrived, so he sent Shen Zhenghao away and hooked his finger at Wang Mengqiu.

Wang Mengqiu came to the pavilion and bowed to Zhou Yang and the others, "Greetings, Master and Madam."

"Well, I just told Liang Yingying to ask you to make some clothes for her. Did you know?"

Wang Mengqiu hummed: "She came to see me just now, but my factory is a textile factory, not a clothing factory, so..."

"As for the clothes, I'll send someone to give you the samples later. As for who to find to make them, it's up to you. If you want money, you can ask your factory for it first."

Wang Mengqiu nodded and decided to ask his family for help in this matter.

"I have something else I want to ask you."

"Speak, sir."

"It's like this. I was just discussing the money issue with Mengyao. I wanted her to manage the money in the mansion, but she said she wanted to go to Emei and recommended you to me. I called you here to ask if you are willing to do this. If you are not willing, I will find someone else."

Wang Mengqiu was stunned. She didn't think that Zhou Yang had called her here for this matter. Moreover, the person who asked her to take over this matter was Pang Yuyao. Didn't she know the importance of this matter? Or did she do it on purpose?

Wang Mengqiu didn't know how to answer for a moment, so she secretly looked at Pang Yuyao who was sitting on Zhou Yang's lap. Seeing Pang Yuyao looking at her with a smile on her face, she felt a sudden tightness in her heart. She secretly guessed what Pang Yuyao meant.

Seeing that Wang Mengqiu had not answered his question, Zhou Yang asked again: "How about it? Tell me what you think. If you don't want to, forget it!"

After some thought, Wang Mengqiu seemed to understand Pang Yuyao's intention. But everything was just her guess. After hearing Zhou Yang's repeated questioning, she was ready to take over the financial power of the Zhou Mansion.

"I, I do!"

"Well, if you are willing, then you can go and take over the accounts of the bicycle factory, steel factory, and cement factory."

"Yes!"

"Also, send Ding Minjun 100,000 taels of silver. If Ding Minjun comes to you for money in the future, give it to her unconditionally!"

"Yes!"

"Don't you want to ask why?"

"All I have to do is take care of the master's money and accounts, as well as the textile factory."

Zhou Yang smiled: "Very good! You can arrange for someone you trust to do the work of the textile factory. If there is nothing else, just go ahead and get busy!"

"Yes, the slaves retire."

After Wang Mengqiu left, Pang Yuyao wanted to ask about Ding Minjun, but she suppressed her curiosity. She knew that Ding Minjun had never had a very good impression of Brother Zhou.

Especially when Brother Zhou asked Master Miejue for Ding Minjun, Ding Minjun wanted to fight with Brother Zhou. Looking at the current situation, Ding Minjun must have been ordered by Brother Zhou to do something, otherwise he would not have given her so much money.

Zhou Yang spent some time with Pang Yuyao tenderly, then came to the study. As soon as he entered the study, he took out Xiao Honghou's true form.

"Little Queen, get to work!"

After waiting for a while, there was no movement.

"What? Are you angry?"
