One Piece of Song Dynasty

The clothes, money, and carriage for the long journey are all ready. Lao Wang has grown up a little bit in the past month following me. Looking at his eagerness to try, he seems to be ready to go on a long trip with me, but in order not to Even if it runs around and scares others or gets killed by others, I still prepare a collar for it. .shung

Everything is ready, but before leaving, the family affairs still need to be explained clearly.

"Uncle An, we are all ready and we will set off early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, the young master, please pay attention to safety along the way. I would like to wish the young master a safe journey and that he will come back early after finishing his work."

"Well, I will pay attention. Besides, this time I and several guards are dressed like ordinary people, so it shouldn't attract anyone's attention."

"Okay, but before I leave, I would like to tell the young master about my family's situation in the past month."

"Okay, please tell me."

"In the past month, Nan'an Restaurant has made a net profit of 65000 yuan. The profit is less than last month. It is probably due to the membership card system. The money was pre-deposited last month, so naturally you don't have to pay for meals this month; the new money this month There are twenty card members and a profit of 100000 yuan, and fifty silver card members and a profit of 100000 yuan. This month, the Nan'an store made a total net profit of 15000 yuan."

"Okay, most of the money should be converted into gold and silver."

"Yes, otherwise our family wouldn't be able to spare so many copper coins. In the past three months, our family has earned almost copper coins."

"Well, okay, how many people have been added to the family this month?"

"There are 6 new people in the nursing team, 3 new cooks, 4 new shipwrights, 2 new carpenters, 5 new sailors, 12 new orphans, four girls and eight boys, and there are 12 left. Sir, what do you think of the arrangements?"

"Well, two of them will be apprentices at a dog breeder and a pigeon breeder, six will be apprentices at a shipyard, and two will be apprentices with the new carpenter. For the last two, Uncle An, you decide whether you want them to go to a shop or a shipyard. Bar."

"Okay, let's do this first."

"Uncle An, please prepare another seven thousand taels of gold for me. I plan to go to Tokyo during this trip and go to Cai Xianggong to ask for the official status of a county magistrate and a county captain."

"Okay, a certain family knows about it. A certain family will send it to the young master tomorrow morning. By the way, what are the arrangements for the sailors? Our ship has not been built yet."

"Sailors, let them train with the nursing team first. Let them get in shape first, and then learn some self-defense skills. It will be of great use in case they encounter pirates at sea in the future; and what is going on in Tianhu Mountain in Yongchun County? Uncle must do it as soon as possible."

"Okay, a certain family knows about it. Before the young master comes back, a certain family will definitely buy Tianhu Mountain."

"There are still people who need to be recruited quickly, especially sailors and the nursing team. Many people will be needed in the future. Uncle An also needs to pay attention to the craftsmen who can raise horses. If there are people who can raise horses, they will also be recruited back. After I leave, In addition to practicing martial arts, the nursing team should patrol our mountain more. If we make so much money, we can't guarantee that someone will try to find the workshop in the mountain, and we should set up more traps around the workshop."

"Well, everyone knows about it."

Early the next morning, I, Zhang Hu and five other guards prepared to leave in a carriage.

"Sir, here are the seven thousand taels of gold you want." Uncle An carried a big box to me.

"Zhang Hu, the five of you come here."

"Master, why are you called a kid?"

"The six of us will each put some gold on our bodies, and put the rest in the mezzanine of the carriage as much as possible. If the mezzanine cannot fit, put it in the carriage. Find a rag to cover the box."

"Yes, I understand, little one."

"Sister, you must listen to Uncle An at home and learn to read with the teacher."

"Brother, are you really not going to take me with you this time?" My sister looked aggrieved.

"Brother is not going out to enjoy the mountains and rivers this time. He has something serious to do. Besides, the journey is too far. It's hard to say what will happen along the way. There's no guarantee that you won't become a burden to us if you go, so you'd better wait at home obediently. Wait for me to come back, and I promise to bring you delicious food and fun things when I come back."

"Okay, brother, please pay attention to safety along the way. Don't forget that there is a big family waiting for you at home." My sister still looked unhappy.

"Okay, I understand, don't be upset. When the world is peaceful in the future, I will definitely take you to go sightseeing and have a lot of fun."

"Yeah, brother, that's great. Don't forget about this. This is what you promised me. And Lao Wang, brother, please take good care of it and don't let anything happen to it." My sister finally smiled.

"Well, I can't forget it. Brother Lao Wang will pay attention, so I'll leave first."

"Uncle An, I leave everything to you in the house."

"Well, don't worry, young master. You must pay attention to safety along the way. Our whole family is waiting for your early return."

In this way, six of us and one tiger left Lijiazhuang and embarked on a long journey. Lao Wang and I were in the carriage, and there were five people left, one driving the carriage and four riding horses. Lao Wang got into the carriage, lay down on its blanket, yawned and fell asleep.

"Zhang Hu, we are going to take the main road this way, not even a small road. We are not seeking speed. We would rather walk a little longer and be safe. Let's go to Huai'an first."

"Yes, I understand, little one."

First go to Huai'an to meet Liang Hongyu. Liang Hongyu is one year younger than me. But with my current status, I can only see Liang Hongyu's true face. If I take the initiative to get involved, people may not think highly of me. After all, they have official status. I Now he is a small landowner in a remote place. It is enough to see Liang Hongyu's true face. It is considered as meeting his future wife first. The key is to let Zhang Hu and others see Liang Hongyu's face clearly. After more than two years, Fang La Uprising , the Liang family suffered a disaster, and Liang Hongyu would be demoted to an official prostitute in Tokyo. Then would be the opportunity, and she could redeem Liang Hongyu by spending yuan through Cai Xianggong's connections. Thinking about robbing General Han Shizhong Han's wife, I felt a little excited.

Along the way, we have enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. However, most of the farmers who farmed the fields have a lot of food. It seems that the people in Jiangnan were deeply poisoned by Hua Shi Gang. Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, also dug his own grave to dig up the foundation of the Song Dynasty. In more than two years, Zhao Ji will feel the anger from the people.

I walked for more than half a month, driving during the day and resting at night. It went pretty smoothly. Lao Wang didn’t make any fuss except eating and sleeping. He didn’t yell when he saw anyone. He walked silently in the eyes of outsiders with a hint of fear. Every time I checked into the inn, I I have to explain to people that I have raised Lao Wang since he was a child, he doesn't bite, and I still keep him on a leash, so as to alleviate people's concerns a little bit.

"Zhang Hu, go and see where you are ahead?"

"Yes, sir." Zhang Hu came back after a while.

"Back to you, sir, we have arrived in Hangzhou."

Hangzhou, there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. It’s a great place to visit. Besides, the current governor of Hangzhou should be Cai Jing’s son Cai Yun. I might as well go and meet the son of Grand Master Cai first, and ask him to give it to me. It would be better if I write a letter of recommendation and then take the letter with me to ask to see Grand Master Cai.
