On the way back to Fuzhou together, Wei Xiaobao's outstanding performances many times made him love talents and began to focus on training them.

Although Wei Xiaobao is still in the Qingmu Hall, as Chen Jinnan's direct disciple, he is actually arranged by the chief helmsman himself.

Chen Jinnan never locked the door, so Wei Xiaobao didn't stop at the door, instead, he grabbed two inch-long bamboo tubes and went straight into the room.

He said out of breath, "Master, something happened."

Seeing the red string tied to the bamboo tube, Chen Jinnan sat up abruptly, his expression suddenly becoming dignified.

Putting the letter paper into a thin bamboo tube, sealing it with wax and binding it to the pigeon's leg, this is the most concealed way of passing the letter.

And the bamboo tube is tied with a red string, which means that this letter is an urgent one.

Chen Jinnan took the bamboo tube, roasted it with a candle, and immediately began to check the note in the bamboo tube.

Seeing this, his complexion suddenly changed.

Wei Xiaobao saw that the master's expression was not right, and asked with concern: "Master, what happened?"

Chen Jinnan didn't speak, and handed the two letterheads to his apprentice, then frowned and thought about the countermeasures.

Wei Xiaobao unfolded the notes and saw that one of them vaguely read "Yunnan sub-rudder...nine assassinations of Wu Sangui".

The other one reads "Ninggong fire, empress dowager and death, Fuquan supervises the country".

He wasn't very literate in the first place, and even though he was cramming every day these days, he still couldn't understand complicated characters.

But even if he only saw the outline, Wei Xiaobao could guess what happened roughly.

Thinking of the master supporting the sky falling, he quickly calmed down: "Master, what should we do now?"

Chen Jinnan clenched his fists, opened his eyes suddenly and said, "Xiaobao, go and ask Sectional Master Zhou to come over, we are going back to Fuzhou tonight!"

Hooves rumbled.

More than a dozen fierce knights galloped on the official road with dozens of caravans on their horses.

There are five horses in the team that are the most handsome, and Yiqi Juechen runs at the front of the team.

Although it was tiring to go on the road for several days, these looks of Xu Fengchen could hardly conceal the aura of the owners of the five steeds.

While the fast horse was galloping, the wine shop by the side of the road flashed by, the leader reined in, looked at the wine shop in surprise, and then continued to ride the horse forward.

A female knight kicked the horse's belly, urged the horse to ride side by side with the man, and asked softly, "Brother Chen, what are you looking at?"

The man was naturally Chen Chong. Seeing A Ke's question, he shook his head and smiled, "The gentle breeze smokes the willows, and the fragrance of flowers is intoxicating. It's the spring season in southern China—"

Another female knight was a little strange, and asked curiously: "Brother Chong, isn't it autumn now? Why do you say spring is beautiful?"

Chen Chong was quite happy in his heart, so he didn't explain much, just smiled and raised eyebrows at her: "You will know later!"

After a while, the tall city walls of Fuzhou City were already in sight.

On the city gate, a young man rushed to the downstairs of the city gate and waved repeatedly. It seemed that he was Wei Xiaobao.

The team led by Chen Chong has been traveling for six days since it left Hangzhou.

Running [-] miles in six days is already an incredible speed, let alone with a group of women.

After more than ten days of boating on the river, plus six days of bumpy carriages, these girls are strong enough, otherwise they would never be able to persevere.

Seeing Wei Xiaobao jumping up and waving from the top of the city gate, Chen Chong was also quite happy.

When he set off from Hangzhou, this guy had already slipped away. It was said that something happened, so he and Chen Jinnan had to go back to Fuzhou to deal with it first.

As for what is important, no one really knows.

Seeing that the team was about to enter the city, Wei Xiaobao quickly ran down the gate tower, just in time to stop Chen Chong.

Turning around Chen Chong's steed, he said enviously: "Brother Chen, your horse is really impressive."

As Chen Jinnan's apprentice, but he has no privileges, it is simply impossible to have his own horse.

"want to?"

Chen Chong chuckled, and put the reins into Wei Xiaobao's hands: "The Emperor Tartar's horse is of course not bad, here, this horse is for you."

Wei Xiaobao was overjoyed, not only did he not be polite, he even asked shamelessly: "Brother Chen, it seems that you have really developed, I wonder if there is any benefit to take care of my little brother?"

Chen Chong looked around and saw that other people were still far away from him, so he whispered: "The benefits are indispensable to you, but we have to wait until the business is done. Xiaobao, tell me honestly, how much money is still missing from Tian Di Hui?"

As soon as the matter of money was mentioned, Wei Xiaobao suddenly regained his energy and began to settle accounts with great interest.

"Brother Chen, you don't know. I only found out when I came to Fuzhou that our Tiandihui has no money at all. It is true that we make a lot of money from salt smuggling and going to sea every year, but our stall is also large, and the money is simply beyond our means."

Speaking of this, he said mysteriously: "Brother Chen, how much money do you think the Tian Di Hui Hui treasury has?"

Chen Chong shook his head: "Smuggling salt and going out to sea must make a lot of money, right? But Tiandi will split rudders everywhere, and it is estimated that the expenses will not be small. Who can say for sure?"

Wei Xiaobao sighed, his brows frowned into a "Chuan" character: "21 taels, Master has saved only 21 taels for so many years!"

Seeing his agitated expression, Chen Chong quickly comforted him: "The Heaven and Earth Society has a great career, and it is certainly not easy to support so many people. It is not bad to be able to save so much money."

Wei Xiaobao suddenly asked: "Brother Chen, do you know how much money the Lichun Academy earns in a year?"

Without waiting for Chen Chong to answer, he said to himself: "As far as I can remember, Li Chunyuan has never earned less than 13 taels a year!"

Speaking of this, Wei Xiaobao sighed again: "Now everyone has borrowed money from all over the world, and they have collected a lot of money. It's a pity that these money plus one piece can't support 2 people, and I don't know what to use to fight the Tartars."

Hearing Wei Xiaobao's words, Chen Chong's heart moved, and he asked, "Xiaobao, have you heard of the Zheng family in Taiwan?"

"Taiwan Zheng's family?"

Wei Xiaobao looked bewildered: "Tai Wan? Is it in Hangzhou? I don't remember Fuzhou having Taiwan Bend!"

No way?

Could it be that there is no Taiwan, no Zheng Chenggong in this world?

Chen Chong was also a little confused, and then asked again: "The Zheng family is the Zheng family of Zheng Chenggong, the Nanming anti-Qing general and the king of Yanping County. Taiwan is the island that General Zheng went to after his defeat!"

"Oh, you are talking about the surname of the country!"

Wei Xiaobao understood now, and immediately said contemptuously: "Brother Chen, the surname of Guo is not Zheng or Zhu, and the island is not called Taiwan, it's called Dongdufu."

Ok?
