Ning Zhao was knocked unconscious by the housekeeper in his sleep to give birth to a child for the family, and took him away desperately to escape.

The king of Guangjun rebelled, he had to have an excuse for his rebellion, and it just so happened that there was a drought in Guangzhou this year, and it was no surprise that starvation was everywhere.The king of Guangjun took the Wanmin book and sent a memorial to the capital. Before the court could respond, he killed the people on his list.The Lord of Ninghai City is also on the list, and his brother-in-law, a well-known wealthy businessman in Ninghai City, is also among them.

It was not the soldiers of King Guangjun who did it, but the victims of disasters all over the place.

They don't even know the names of the people they broke in to kill and take revenge. They only know that these people have money and power, and they are completely different from their miserable self. Then they deserve to die. If they die, the money will be theirs. .

These mobs were the first batch of rebels under the King of Guangjun. They killed corrupt officials and marched northward to ask the Qing emperor to return the people of the world to a clear and just dynasty.

Ning Zhao once again approached the place where he had grown up for 12 years. At that time, the King of Guangjun had left Cangwu County with his rebel army, and here, everything changed beyond recognition.The plaque was changed, and now the person living in it is the leader of the rebel army who was left here by the King of Guangjun to guard the territory.And Ning Zhao's relatives had already been dragged away, along with those corrupt officials, and burned to ashes in front of the rebels who applauded wildly.

"father……"

"mother……"

"Brother..."

He leaned against the wall and slid to the ground in pain, unable to cry.

Why do you want to do this?He can't figure it out.After living two lifetimes, Ning Zhao understood for the first time what hatred is.

"Little master, let's go, we will die if they find out. The master said, let us escape to Shu, as far as possible." The servant who escorted him out begged.

Ning Zhao stood up straight and said softly, "I won't go, I can't go."

Ning Zhao changed out of the expensive silk and satin clothes, and put on a coarse cloth gown, unkempt and disheveled, and wandered out of the city with the slaves.There is a mine on the barren hill outside the city, which was left by Ning Zhao when he dug the box of gold, and the mining work is only half done.They originally planned to collect gold together on the barren hills, and prepared soft grains to hide here in case they escape in case of emergency. Now the gold is the capital for Ning Zhao to come back to revenge his blood feud.

On the way up the barren mountain, they encountered a corpse, a woman with a child in her arms.

"Little master, that child looks like he was just born. He died in vain at such a young age. He really committed a crime... Hey, little, little master, he, he moved! He moved!"

Ning Zhao has a respect for the dead that people in this war-torn era do not have, and is at a loss, let alone what to do after hearing what he said.

The house slave was cruel and said: "Little master, let's go. He suffered such a disaster when he was born, and we won't be able to live if we take him away. Why don't we simply let them rest here."

Ning Zhao lived in a peaceful age for 30 years, but he really couldn't abandon a baby, so he hesitated for a moment and took him up the mountain together.

The baby survived tenaciously, which seemed to give Ning Zhao infinite hope.

He liked this child very much, named him Ning Shuo and considered him his younger brother.Ning Shuo grew up on the mountain until he was five years old, so he was really raised in a pile of gold.While taking care of and teaching him, Ning Zhao recruited soldiers and horses at the foot of the mountain with his slaves.His idea is very simple, he doesn't want a great cause, he just wants to take revenge, even if the king of Guangjun really becomes the emperor in the future, he still wants him to pay for his parents and brother's life.

He was not dazzled by hatred, he only regarded him as something that had to be done.

The old emperor finally passed away in the second year after Ning Zhao's family was destroyed. At that time, the kings of Guangjun and Yangjun had already reached Qingzhou, but it was a pity that they were one step behind the king of Pingzhou in the north, and were waited on the throne by the other party.The two kings refused to accept and did not recognize the new emperor, but continued to fight.

When Ning Zhao was 17 years old, another war broke out in Guangzhou Mansion.

This time, it was the Sima family who annihilated the rear of the King of Guangjun and directly took the whole of Guangzhou as their own.

The style of the Sima family was very tough, and after only occupying the Guangzhou mansion for half a year, they proclaimed themselves emperor, known as the Jing Dynasty.After occupying Guangzhou, they did not rush to expand the territory, but issued a decree to restore agriculture and commerce, and advocated maritime commerce.

Ning Zhao knew that his chance had come.

The Sima family is short of money.

At this time, he had already recruited three thousand young men, trained them to inquire and collect various information, and learned that Sima's family was originally an aborigine in Guangzhou Prefecture. They were killed by the King of Guangjun just like his own family, and they were at odds with the King of Guangjun. They feel that they can get in touch with each other further, after all, they all have the common enemy of the king of Guangjun.Of course, Ning Zhao didn't intend to hand over the gold he had hoarded for the past few years. He planned to wait and see the Sima family for a while to see if the other party's character could cooperate.

He has lost the respect that history books have piled up with praise words for the careerists in troubled times, and he is afraid that the Sima family will become the second king of Guangjun.

He took the old slave and his younger brother down the mountain, bought a shop and started a maritime business, and soon recruited a fleet of ships, all of which were his own.

The sea ban had been banned for many years when the old emperor was in power. This time, the Sima family opened the sea ban, even though the taxes collected were high, there were still people jumping into this pit one after another.However, there are too many people with unknown origins here, so Ning Zhao used three taels of silver to register for a family of three, and settled down at the foot of the mountain.The first fleet was quickly collected, all of whom he had arranged to find work at the dock, and soon started the first voyage.

The business in the shop was very sluggish, and Ning Zhao didn't care.

News from the Sima family kept coming to him. Everything was orderly and peaceful. He knew that one day a beggar threw a bag of things in front of his door.

It was another baby!

Ning Zhao's men chased for ten streets but failed to chase the beggar back.Ning Zhao had no choice but to take the baby home, opened the tattered swaddle, and found a letter inside.The letter should have been left by the beggar. The person who wrote the letter said that his own was Gao Hui, who was seriously ill with a disabled eye. He asked him to help him raise him as the only flesh and blood, and he would not disclose his identity.

Gao Hui.

The name Ning Zhao is no stranger to him, he is the only son of his aunt who brought infinite glory to his father, five years older than him.

He didn't expect that the other party was still alive, so he immediately asked Lao Nujia to send people to track him down.It turned out that after putting down the child, he turned into another alley and went directly onto the bridge and threw himself into the river to die. The body has been salvaged.Ning Zhao was so disappointed that he was buried properly.

The owner of Ning's shop buried a beggar and adopted the beggar's son as his step-son. He went to the Yamen to create a household registration, and became famous all at once.

Many beggars were found, and Ning Zhao was persuaded to go away with nice words at first, but seeing that they got worse, he let the old slave deal with them.The old slave was able to escape with his young master, and he also accomplished a lot of things under Ning Zhao's assignment. He was no longer a little domestic slave in a merchant's house, but he could also be ruthless and interrupt two beggars directly. The leg was sent to the official, and they went to court to say that they had stolen and damaged the store's property, and they demanded ten taels of silver in compensation. They couldn't pay the money, so the yamen had to beat the plaintiff to vent their anger. As for the prison meal, these people also died.

After this incident, the front of the Ning's shop returned to a deserted place, until a young man with a shabby appearance but clean came to the door.

The visitor claimed to be surnamed Li and asked if there was any need for an accountant in the shop.

Ning Zhao recognized him. He took his two children to bask in the sun at the door, but he was rejected by shops and even driven away in embarrassment.But seeing that he is still gentle and calm now, he thinks that this is the deep-minded person his father taught him, and he is also a talent to be made.Even if the other party is ungrateful, you should form a good relationship instead of enmity.

So he said, "What will you do, and how much salary do you want?"

The young man obviously didn't expect that he intended to keep him, and he didn't expect him to ask so directly. He opened his eyes wide in surprise, and then couldn't help but show joy, and said: "I have read books, can read and write, and I have also learned nine chapters. Arithmetic, you can do the job as an accountant. As for the salary, two hundred cash per month will be enough. It’s just that I’m young… I’m sorry, because my mother is ill and needs medical treatment, I wonder if I can get a month’s salary directly?”

Ning Zhao finally knew why he was kicked out.

If the old slave wasn't here today, he would have been kicked out of the shop by now.

"You just said, what's your name?"

The young man originally thought that after he uttered such rude requests, this young man would also expel him like the previous shopkeepers who had a good impression of him, but he didn't expect that he would still have the possibility to keep himself, so he hurriedly said: "My surname Li, single name Qian, double character Ziqian, a native of Ninghai."

Ning Zhao pushed the cradle with one hand, took out a tael of silver from the cabinet with the other and put it on the table: "Here is for you, and it will be deducted from your wages later. Before the store opens tomorrow, I want to see you here, understand?"

The young man shook his hands, feeling incredible.

But he really needed the money so much, he didn't ask him why he trusted him and was willing to give him such a large sum of money, but he just agreed and thanked him sincerely before leaving.

The old slave who came back passed him by, thinking that someone was taking care of business today, so he asked. After hearing the whole story, he really didn't know what to say about his little master.

This kind of person, no matter how kind-hearted he is, he will always be a copper plate, so how can he give a tael of silver without blinking? Although the family has tens of thousands of taels of gold, the old slave has been going in the direction of a miser all these years. return.Ning Zhao listened to his nagging with a smile, and looked at the two children sleeping next to him with gentle eyes.

Seeing this, the old slave couldn't help but sigh again, "The young master is almost six years old, so pushing him like this should tire the young master."

Even the master did not love the young master so much back then. Seeing that he really loved the children, the old slave inevitably talked about marriage and having children. Ning Zhao hurriedly pushed the two sleeping children and fled.
