Old things in Nancheng

With this kind of relationship, and the end of the year is approaching, it is normal to prepare a gift according to the etiquette and come to the door to ask for an early year. Wang Zimo knows in his heart that he cannot get too close to Qin Hui. This is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger, but Qin Hui has great energy And it's very useful, as long as the money is enough, he can get help from him, so after weighing it, Wang Zimo was not willing to break this relationship, and decided to keep in touch neither far nor near.

However, after drinking tea all day in the Qin Mansion, Qin Hui didn't meet Wang Zimo in person, and he didn't even see the serious master of the Qin family. side.

Wang Zimo returned angrily, and Wang Qi comforted him and said: "Master, the Qin family is the tallest, our family is only white, and it is normal for them not to see you. Your treatment is considered good. The young one is in the Qin family, and he doesn't even have a bowl of tea." superior."

Wang Zimo gave Wang Qi a blank look, and said depressedly: "Thousands of gifts were sent out, but only last year's old tea was mixed in. This business is a big loss!"

Wang Zimo wasn't really angry about Qin's cold reception, which was what she expected.But the next day, Lin Huai'an personally took Wang Zimo to the Palace of Seven Counties to ask for an audience, and the gift he gave was three points higher, but the King of Seven Counties didn't even see her.

Wang Zimo felt that Lin Huai'an was the long-term history of the palace of the Seven Counties. He had a close relationship with the master and servant of the Seven Counties.Not to mention that if she hadn't offered advice in Yanguan County, the King of the Seven Counties would have died of drinking the northwest wind, so he looked down on her so much!

No matter what she said, Wang Zimo, she was also a handsome, rich and powerful black boss.

Seeing Prince Mo drooping his head, Lin Huai'an patted her on the shoulder comfortingly: "The gift is accepted, and the county king will keep your thoughts in mind. It's just that no one is a fool. If someone plots against you, it's not just looking for bad luck." You have a kind heart."

Wang Zimo was stunned for a moment, and took a deep look at Lin Huai'an. The old man in front of him still had an expression of caring for the younger generation, but this was equivalent to an explicit hint. A smart person like Wang Zimo would not be so stupid that Lin Huai'an just said it casually. .

"Thank you, father-in-law." Wang Zimo said sincerely.

Lin Huai'an smiled, patted Wang Zimo's arm again, and said, "It's okay, live a good life, it's good for young people to be aggressive, let's accumulate slowly."

For the rest of the day, Wang Zimo visited Wang Qinian's old family in the same year as Wang Qinian. I don't know if it was because Wang Zimo was white or the Wang family was in decline. Those people didn't meet each other in person. , wrote a letter for Wang Zimo to pass on to Wang Qinian to say hello, and those who were estranged received the gift and dismissed it as a matter of the end of the year.

Hitting the wall everywhere, full of frustration, hit Wang Zimo, who had been going smoothly in recent years, and she never went out again, only staying at home with her family, but she was always reflecting in her mind, very deep reflection.

During this time, Lin Zhilan's words repeatedly appeared in her mind: We can be adventurous, but we must do what we can and be self-aware. Anything beyond the scope of our ability is to deceive ourselves and deceive others. For a moment, we will find that all the beauty is just an illusion.

Yes, Wang Zimo has overestimated herself in the constant success, and she is now in a fantasy.She felt that she had money in her hands, but the money was nothing to the family of officials for generations. She felt that she was powerful, but the Brotherhood was only limited to the small Yanguan County, and it was not stable yet. She felt that She is talented and resourceful, but there is no one in the court who doesn't have two brushes, and Wang Zimo, who doesn't even have an official status, lacks a stepping stone.

When waking up from a dream, there is always a moment of confusion. The impression of a beautiful dream is too good, and the loss of waking up is self-evident.

A person's growth involves not only the body, but also the mind. When facing setbacks, suppression, and sudden changes, whether one can calmly and rationally adjust one's mentality and position one's own position is a measure of growth.

Wang Zimo was lucky, because Lin Zhilan was by her side, and Lin Zhilan would not directly reason with Wang Zimo, and Wang Zimo, who was in the rebellious period of youth, would only find loyal words harsh.

Lin Zhilan is still as usual, meticulously taking care of the housework, raising two children carefully, facing Wang Zimo's loss, she quietly accompanied her, patiently enlightened him with "fairy tales" one after another, and gave Wang Zimo the best love every day. big smile.

Spiritual power is powerful, rich knowledge is powerful, and warm company is the best healing medicine. Wang Zimo's winter also began to have sunshine after the snow.The most intelligent part of the goddess of wisdom is to let her attitude towards life influence others.

After the Chinese New Year, Wang Zimo recovered from the labor pains, and asked everyone to visit the store.As early as after Lin Zhilan was recognized as a relative, Wang Zimo asked the accountant in Lin'an Mansion to take care of the shop, and prepared to open a branch in Xianlai Pavilion.Now is the right time. Among the five shops to be selected, two were selected. One was by the West Lake, with an excellent view, and the other was on the busiest street, where nobles often haunted.

Write a letter to Jiang Shangpei, Jiang Shangpei sent Jiang Shanggui and several stewards to look at the shop together in Lin'an Mansion, and finally chose the shop by the West Lake.The pavement is very large, and it is a four-story building. If you look over the third and fourth floors, you can take in most of the beautiful scenery of the West Lake.

After signing the document, he bought it at a high price of 5000 and [-] guan. The rest of the decoration was familiar work. Wang Zimo left the manager here to support him, and brought his family back to Yanguan County.

She finally figured it out, let's live peacefully on this three-acre land in Yanguan County, and live the nourishing life of a rich man. The water in Lin'an Mansion is too deep, and she, a little fish, will drown.

Among them, the happiest one was not Wang Zimo, but Lin Zhilan.Wang Zimo of the cultivation department has become Lin Zhilan's best educational product. Lin Zhilan deeply feels that the safety factor of her own life has finally improved. It is too difficult to correct the bear children, and it is very important to train the next generation well.

Thus, Yan'er, Bao'er, and Shen Feng became Lin Zhilan's latest targets.

Wang Zimo doesn't care about the family affairs now, Lin Zhilan has a deep heart, her vision is farther than her, and her character is nobler than her. Lin Zhilan personally teaches the children in the family, and Wang Zimo agrees with it all.

As for family conflicts, the Liu family has some resistance to Lin Zhilan's teaching of Shen Feng, it's just that the Liu family has a sense of crisis, the three children, Prince Mo is Lin Zhilan's, and Yan'er is married far away, and the person closest to the Liu family is Shen Feng, Liu felt that Lin Zhilan's move was to rob her of her son.

Wang Zimo consciously came forward to mediate. The most helpless thing is the daughter-in-law, mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Wang Zimo is also very smart, and he doesn't argue with the Liu family.

What is greater than his son's future? Wang Zimo is naturally talking about Shen Feng's future. Shen Feng is good at reading and speaking. Master Qin has repeatedly praised him. Feng's imperial examination is just around the corner, and he has a good relationship with Lin Zhilan, so the Lin family will naturally make suggestions for Shen Feng.

After the family was settled, Wang Zimo and Jiang Shangpei partnered to engage in economic construction.

In two years, Jiang Shangpei has secured the power in Yanguan County, Wang Zimo has stabilized the power of the Brotherhood, Yanguan County's waterways and land routes have improved significantly, and carriages and boats shuttle back and forth during the day, merchants are constantly coming and going, and there is a lot of people's voices. Most of them are in trouble.At night, countless cargo ships and merchant ships are moored at the pier, the sparks of the fishermen are shining, and the boats are singing and singing in the distance.

The men who ran the boat in the fraternity, tired of day-to-day work, gathered together to eat meat and drink with laughter.

"Brother Mazi, my father bought pig offal and asked you to come over and have dinner together."

"Okay, girl, wait a minute. I'll go back and bring over a pot of wine. It's a ten-year-old daughter's red wine. I bought it when I went to Shaoxing."

"Hey, Mrs. Lotus, she's killing fish, it's really big."

"Isn't that right? My man just caught it. The cook at my young master's house taught me sweet and sour fish. Today is my first try."

Noisy, lively, hard work, adequate food and clothing, in two years, these poorest people finally lived a taste, suffering still needs to be eaten, but there are rewards, the children can be fed, the elderly can be raised, all of these, they are remember a person.

People in the rivers and lakes call it "Xiaoye".

In the past, there were as many lords and lords on the road in Yanguan County as the Qing Dynasty, but now, there is only one person on the road who can be called a lord, and only this person is convinced by everyone, and that is the "young master" who has no quack air. The sons are all the masters of the junior generation, and whoever dares to call them the masters.

Today is the festive day after the Dragon Boat Festival reconciliation. The business of the Wang family has been increasing steadily, and the brotherhood has also achieved an increase in profit. However, it is not the [-]% that Wang Zimo should have paid at the beginning, but a full [-]%.The Brotherhood's hall masters, Xiangzhu, were so happy that they couldn't find the north. Although it had achieved [-]% a year ago, who dared to think that the income would continue to increase, and it was a substantial increase.

On the edge of the canal in the north of the city, there is a tributary. Going west along the tributary, there is a patch of reeds, and then there is a huge lake. In the early summer, many lotus flowers have bloomed here. Not to the end.

On such a large lake, there are only three flower boats today. From the signs on the boats, everyone in Yanguan County knows that they are the flower boats of the Wang family.

On the two flower boats, Wang Zimo toasted with the brothers' hall masters and incense masters one by one, and then boarded his own main boat.On board today, all members of the Wang family were present, as well as Jiang Shangpei, Jiang Shanggui and other children of the Jiang family.

"Brother Zimo, I've caught you, where are you going to hide today?"

"That's right, if Brother Zimo hadn't been drunk today, our brother would have come for nothing."

Prince Mo bowed again and again, and said with a smile: "If you are not a brother, you are not being generous. In fact, my wife is here. If you talk to my wife, I will accompany you to the end today."

"Brother Zimo, if you stomp your feet in our county now, our county will be shaken three times. How can you be so afraid of yourself!" Jiang Shanggui laughed.

"Third brother, you are a real man, you go and say it, and we will support you spiritually in the future."

Jiang Shanggui glanced at his own daughter-in-law beside Lin Zhilan, shrunk his head and said nothing, and was cowardly.

"Hey, good luck! You can just drink today, or you'll get drunk and we'll have you dragged back and thrown into the courtyard." Jiang Shanggui and his wife, Honghua, said boldly, like a big boss in a cottage.

Everyone was happy, and soon let go after eating and drinking, and there were singing and dancing to add to the fun, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Jiang Shangpei was a little drunk, picked up half of the wine glass and spilled it on his clothes, and said with a big tongue: "Brother, when you formed the fraternity, you were still drumming for the brother, and now you know that you have a long-term vision. With you, the fraternity The people in our county have food and don’t cause trouble. Our county has ruled Qingming for the past two years, and the people have praised me as a grandfather. But I know that if you can’t control the gangsters of the fraternity, I’m afraid I can’t be stable as a brother now. Sitting on the fishing platform."

"Big Brother is talking nonsense. If it wasn't for Big Brother's full support, how could I break out of such a situation, not to mention eating enough, I'm afraid the people below would have to rebel."

Wang Zimo picked up the wine glass and touched Jiang Shangpei heavily, spilling most of the wine.

"My brother, don't talk to others, we brothers are of one heart, and we will break the gold together." Jiang Shangpei raised his head and poured a small amount of wine into his mouth.

"But wait for the elder brother's words. I have an idea. Now the time is ripe. If we do it well, our salt is not as good as Lin'an. It is only a matter of time before we catch up with Yangzhou."

"Oh? You have such a good idea, Brother Xian, tell me quickly."

The two of them were already so drunk that they were half lying on their backs, and they couldn't sit still, but their minds were spinning and turning around with difficulty. Afterwards, anyway, many people didn't remember what happened. Jiang Shangpei only remembered that Wang Zimo said to himself very important thing.
