Chapter 390
Datongfang, Jifu.

Ji Chengzong, who happened to be resting at home, put his hands in his sleeves, looked at the big box that was being carried out, and said with some concern:

"Jiulang, it's bitterly cold in eastern Liaodong, even though you've changed your blood, you're not afraid of the wind and snow, but you still have to take care of your body.

Your aunt bought a black fox fur robe a few days ago, why don't you take it with you too. "

Ji Yuan shook his head and smiled:

"I brought one set of official uniforms, two sets of regular uniforms, and several military robes, all of which were written by the Weaving Bureau.

Can the cloth shops and clothing shops in the market be better than the imperial court and the imperial merchants?

It's better to let my aunt keep it by herself, second uncle, you are now a hundred households in Nanya, and you will soon be appointed as a thousand households.

You should also buy a few outfits, but you can't let the gossips and snobbish eyes of those colleagues' families look down upon you. "

Ji Chengzong chuckled, patted his nephew on the shoulder vigorously, and said comfortingly:

"I'm all in the glory of Jiulang, otherwise, with my ability, how could I be promoted from Zongqi all the way to Qianhu.

Brother, if Quan Xia knows, knowing that his son is so promising, he can feel at ease. "

At the end, Ji Chengzong had a sad look in his eyes.

Back then, the two brothers escaped death and earned a lot of credit with all their efforts, all of which were handed over to the Shangguan.

Originally, they wanted to join Heilongtai and leave their hometown in Liaodong to go to Daming Mansion together.

Let's each settle down and start a career, so that we don't have to live a hard life with our heads on our belts.

But the opportunity is only reserved for one person.

As the eldest brother, Ji Chengzu chose Beizhen Fusi, and took the initiative to accept the extremely dangerous hidden job.

Leave the position of knife and pen official in Fusi of Nanzhen to Ji Chengzong.

From then on, we will say goodbye forever, and we will be strangers to life and death.

Because of this incident, Ji Chengzong felt very guilty towards his nephew from the bottom of his heart.

If they were changed, wouldn't the elder brother's family not suffer that catastrophe?

In order for Ji Yuan to inherit his father's vacancy in one hundred households, he also took care of it in many ways and spent a lot of money.

Later, Jiulang was assassinated by Lin Lu and Cao Gang Luo Lie, and he was even more anxious like an ant on a hot pot, so he hurriedly asked Mr. Zhou from the Imperial Medical Bureau to take care of him.

"Second Uncle, don't pretend to be concerned about the past.

The family does not speak two different languages, you have taken care of me all these years, and you have not owed me anything.

I didn't even ask my aunt to have a child. I was afraid that if I had flesh and blood, it would be difficult for me to treat me as well as before. "

Just as old man Shen said, even though Ji Yuan has the face of an eagle watching a wolf, he has a lot of thoughts inside.

There are many details about the daily behavior of the people around you.

It seems that he doesn't care, but he has a panoramic view.

The second uncle has been married for decades, and he and his aunt are very affectionate.

But so far there is no heir, the reason actually falls on Ji Yuan.

"Liaodong Ji Clan, with Jiulang and you supporting the door alone, it is enough to shine on the lintel.

Second Uncle, I already... regard you as already out, so why should I think about anything else. "

Ji Chengzong's mouth trembled twice, trying to pretend nothing happened, but he couldn't conceal the agitation in his heart.

He used to be the general banner of Nanzhen Fusi, and his official position was not high, and his family background was not rich.

As the saying goes, poor culture is rich in martial arts.

My nephew's practice has laid a solid foundation, and the cost is already high.

In the future, they will have to start a family and start a business, buy land and buy a house, not to mention.

If he and his mother-in-law had a baby, would they still be able to give without expecting anything in return?

Ji Chengzong didn't dare to think about it, so he started from the day he brought Ji Yuan back to Tianjing.

He made up his mind to cultivate his nephew attentively, treating him as the only seedling of the Liaodong Ji family.

"Second Uncle, you can't give me all the inheritance,
You also know that I am now worshiping under Master Linji,

Uncertain when he suddenly enlightened, he got rid of the mundane, and went to become a monk.

So, second uncle, you have to work hard yourself,
This is a Tiger Wolf Pill, which not only makes people physically strong, like a wolf like a tiger, but also stimulates Qi and blood.

Instead of seeking to sharpen martial arts, it would be better to strengthen your body. "

Ji Yuan diverted from the heavy topic and deliberately joked.

"Jiulang, you look down on Second Uncle too much? I'm in my prime, how can I need a Great Dan..."

Ji Chengzong put away his sadness, he said this with his mouth, but his body was very honest.

Resolutely put the Tiger Wolf Pill into his sleeve, then coughed twice and said:

"This time we are going to Liaodong, my elder brother and I have some old brothers, they are still in the army.

If you meet by chance, if there is something that can help you, you might as well lend a hand.

God doesn't give us a way to survive. We Liaodong people grit our teeth and dig the soil to plant the land in order to take root in the customs. It's not easy.

The poet of the former dynasty said that in the bitter cold area of ​​Liaodong, the October River was frozen, and looking back at Wulu Mountain, the cloudy air was condensed for thousands of miles.

These twenty words are actually not enough to describe what happened. "

Ji Yuan nodded lightly, his face darkened.

The Jing Dynasty has nine sides, but why did Bai Hanzhang take Liaodong alone?

Because that place has been corrupted to the point of disrepute, nearly sixty years of troops have been stationed there.

A group of domineering warriors didn't pay attention to the court at all.

I only know that there are military princes, but I don't know that there is a court.

Putting this sentence in Liaodong is by no means empty words.

Especially a few years ago, an imperial envoy sent by the East Palace was on a hunting trip to Baishan and Heishui.

In less than half a month, he died strangely and suddenly.

To the outside world, he died of a cold infection.

During the period, the man wrote down what he saw along the way as a memorial, and counted the four major crimes in Liaodong.

After a secret report from Fusi's spies in Beizhen, it was finally submitted to Bai Hanzhang.

Ji Yuan once saw the bloody memorabilia with his own eyes in the warm pavilion.

There is a statement among them, the major crime in Liaodong, since the rise of the army, the bullying of aid soldiers has been blamed;
The second most serious crime is the bankruptcy of a military man and the sale of his children, causing trouble for carts and oxen;
The third most serious crime is chasing prostitutes and merging the three families of Zhang, Liu, and Tian, ​​and pulling out the family that has been hard to move for 200 years;
The fourth most serious crime is to confiscate barbarians and dispose of them in folk huts, making them prostitute their wives and daughters, and robbing them of food and drink.

It means that the locals in Liaodong are often bullied by the subordinates of the generals stationed outside.

As a result, many people would rather become bandits than escape military service.

Moreover, there was no sufficient food and wages to support a large family, so they were forced to sell their children and daughters.

Coupled with the embezzlement of land by local tyrants, a large number of Liaodong people have no land to cultivate.

You can only commit yourself as a slave, or become a family general who supports you.

Finally, there are Huawai barbarians recruited by military lords who do not observe military discipline, have no law of the king, and often break into nearby villages to burn, kill and loot.

If things go on like this for a long time, Liaodong will rebel and the customs will be chaotic.

It was also this memorial that he risked his life for that made Bai Hanzhang firm in his determination to Ping Liao.

"Second Uncle, it's best to stay in the capital, if you encounter any major issues that cannot be handled,

You can go to Eunuch Chen Gui from the East Palace, Commander Ao from Beizhen Fusi, Jin Lanzhou from Qin Tianjian, and Tongbao Bank.

When I come back from Liaodong, I will be promoted to another level and stay in Tianjing, and I will take care of you and your aunt. "

Ji Yuan confessed a few words, and then called the servants of the mansion to carry several large boxes onto the carriage.

Bring out the delicious and delicious Hu Leibao, and bid farewell to the second uncle Ji Chengzong and aunt.

With a serious illness, he went to Fusi Yamen in Beizhen.

The number of people accompanying him on this trip was about three hundred.

Among them, Li Yan, Tong Guan, Pei Tu and other confidantes lead the way.

Now the three of them have successfully condensed their energy, and they have entered the Second Heaven.

In addition, taking the Tiger Wolf Great Pill, he has a strong temperament, which is not inferior to veterans who have fought a hundred battles.

Even if they ran into those domineering border generals at that time, they could calm down the situation.

Step, step, step.

The horseshoe stepped down the steps, and seeing his master, Hu Leibao was quite intimate, and rubbed his head on Ji Yuan's shoulder.

The latter touched the slightly protruding corners of his head, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth:
"This capital city is too small, but the world is too big, good horse, come with me to see the magnificent scenery outside."

……

……

Humble Garden, Liangyi Hall.

Like good babies, Luo and Zhen stood with their heads down, waiting for their father sitting on top to speak.

Known as the "God of Wealth" and "Shangshu of the Real Household Department", the boss of Tongbao Bank Luo.

At this moment, sipping tea slowly, said unhurriedly:
"Third son, you are going to Liaodong this time, the mountains are high and the water is long, the wind is strong and the snow is tight,
Listen to Ji Qianhu in everything, let him make up his own mind, and don't make up his own mind. "

Luo and Zhen nodded and said:
"My son knows."

The big boss of the bank who has done business in all directions and has no disadvantages.

He was quite kind in life, with a rich face with a round sky and a round place.

Her temples are slightly white, and she is dressed in a splendid embroidered dress, exuding a confident attitude.

He rubbed the jade wrench on his finger and said softly:
"Third son, you have never experienced any great hardships or experienced any great storms in your life.

In fact, according to our family background, you don't need to go out and work hard.

After all, you have neither talent nor interest in business.

This is such a big family business, with a boss and a second child to take care of it, enough for you to be a rich and idle person.

This time, don't blame your father for being cruel to 'assign' you to Liaodong. "

Luo Yuzhen lowered their heads, and they were in awe of their father, who was known as "money can pass through the gods", and said solemnly:

"The son also wants to share the worries of the two elder brothers, and also wants to win honor for his father, so as not to humiliate the Luo family."

Boss Luo Da smiled and said in relief:
"Father is already very happy that you have this thought.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, our family is the lowest level.

Even if saints and princes want to support her.

Established Tongbao Bank, issued treasure banknotes, and promoted it all over the world.

But those aristocratic families still looked down on us before, and felt that we were full of copper stink.

Ha ha, until the sage copied several families and wiped out several families.

Their bones softened all of a sudden, and they immediately learned to grovel.

Now he is even begging for mercy, begging me for a meal. "

Luo and Zhen snorted twice, of course he knew before Tongbao Bank became bigger.

As a relative of the emperor, my own family is not very popular with those 700-year-old noble families.

The eldest brother married his regular wife in his early years, and his sister-in-law was only a concubine of the Cui family in Boling, so she was said to be "married down".

The aristocratic family's eyes are higher than the top, which can be seen.

Later, the sage measured the fields of the world and compiled fish scale books.

Focus on harvesting local clans and powerful people from all walks of life.

If you don't follow, kill one as an example to others.

These aristocratic families who usually have a cup of water and a cup of water, and talk about mystery with nothing to do.

When arrogant, dare to despise princes.

But when the knife rests on the neck, the body is also extremely soft, and everyone kneels very quickly.

Then the sage personally opened Tongbao Bank, supported several imperial merchants, and built official road stations in various parts of Fuzhou.

It also opened up the water and land main roads from the north to the south, making commercial firms of all sizes spring up like mushrooms after rain.

And because Tongbao Bank controls the issuance of treasure banknotes, and relies on the imperial court as its backing, it firmly sits in the leading position.

Instead, those aristocratic families have to rely on the Luo family's breath, otherwise it will be difficult and difficult to develop.

"However, from their situation, Dad can also be alerted.

A thousand-year-old aristocratic family and a hundreds-year-old clan will also suffer catastrophe as the dynasties change and the artifacts change hands, not to mention merchants like us.

In "Shenzhou Tianguan Zhi", it is also said that the line is called Shang, and the place is called Jia.

Only by traveling north and south, gathering goods from all over the world, and sending them to the people of the world, can we make a steady stream of wealth.

So, I asked your eldest brother to do business in Jiangnan, and your second brother to do business in Northwest China.

Now there is only Liaodong left. That place is a little bit bitter, but it can determine the situation of the next ten years.

As long as you, the third child, stand firm, even if our family falls into ruins and ruins, all property will be destroyed.

You too can have a roof and a place to stand. "

Luo Yuzhen couldn't help but turn pale with shock, suddenly raised his head to look at Boss Luo, and asked in a trembling voice:
"Why did father say that? The crown prince has supervised the country for 20 years. He has worked hard and made great achievements. He will definitely be able to inherit the great rule in the future.

Our family is a relative of the emperor, a tree with deep roots, how can it fall? ! "

Luo Sanlang, who loves elegance, is not a dull person. He clearly smelled an unusual sense of worry from Boss Luo's words.

"Don't ask so many questions, it's better that you don't know some things.

When the time comes, Dad will naturally tell you.

The four words of royal relatives and relatives are nothing more than the glory of my good sister.

People all over the world say that I have a good eye for business and know people without mistakes.

But how did they know that my ability is not one-tenth of the empress's.

Back then, a hundred barbarians dominated Tianjing, thousands of beacons rose together, and heroes from all walks of life turned against each other.

From among those heroes and talents, who have a high family name and surname, she is the only saint among all the heroes.

This is the foundation of our family today! "

Boss Luo sighed softly, put down the raised teacup, and said slowly:
"A pure merchant can only pretend to be a business.

Such people can often only make small profits, and it is difficult to make a fortune.

I think of our patriarchs, Tao Zhugong and Lu Yangzhai, one of them was seeking the country, the other was in the picture, how beautiful they are.

I can't reach it in my life. You are not as smart as your two elder brothers, but your vision is first-class.

That Ji Qianhu is a Jiaomang who wants to leap over the Dragon Gate, and sooner or later he will ride the clouds and ride the fog to take advantage of the situation.

It is very good that you can get acquainted with him in advance and accumulate friendship when he is in his infancy.

This trip to Liaodong, father will give you 300 million taels of silver as the principal, and [-] boxes of goods.

You have to do everything you can to help Ji Qianhu gain a firm foothold in Liaodong. Only when he has a deep foothold can the flag of your firm be planted!

No matter how domineering Liaodong will be, it will not be against real money.

Take money to clear the way, and the journey will always be smoother. "

Luo and Zhen's hearts seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, and they felt that there was something ominous about what their father said about the funeral.

Could it be that something major happened in the palace?
He concentrated and held his breath, but he didn't dare to ask more questions, he nodded heavily and said:

"My son understands."

Boss Luo waved his hand, closed his eyes and said:

"Go, dad won't see you off.

As the saying goes, rely on the boss, love the youngest.

Saburo, you have to know that Dad misses you from the bottom of his heart.

It's just that our family is different from others. The big tree attracts the wind, and the desire to be quiet is endless.

The issuance of treasure notes, the laying of banks, the construction of bridges and roads... Your father has done all the errands that should have been done by the imperial household department.

The outside world said that I was the real Hubu Shangshu.

It sounds like a bright future, but one day your father will lose power and the Luo family will collapse.

These are all reminders! "

Luo and Zhen's heart was shaken when they heard this, is their father starting to plot a way out?
After going through Yang Ping'er's design, he has lost a little bit of flirtatiousness.

With firm eyes, he cupped his hands and said:

"Father, please take good care of yourself. My son will never let the sign of Tongbao Bank hit the ground."

After finishing speaking, he slowly exited Liangyi Hall.
