Youshi is also a Buddhist believer in ordinary days, and he helped Qin Keqing solve this dream, very happy, and now he is already thinking about the grand scene when Jiao Da brings people back.

Qin Keqing was naturally happy to see the results.Now at this time, Zhen Shiyin should have followed that monk to become a monk long ago, and it is unknown whether Feng Shi is still alive.If Youshi has three points of kindness towards Yinglian, it is impossible to say that this girl's life in the future will be much easier.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law agreed on this matter, so they asked the maid to find Jiao Da, and talked about it like this.Jiao Da has always cared about the Ningguo Mansion. Hearing Qin Keqing's arrangement, and it was such a meritorious thing to save someone's life, he naturally said yes. He went home and packed his bags immediately. He just waited for the Lin family to set off. Go to Jinling together to find people.

Qin Keqing would not only entrust Jiao Da alone, she also specially wrote a letter to Jia Min, asking her to help him.In addition, Qin Keqing also informed Wang Xifeng of the matter. Although she didn't seem to believe it, she also wrote a letter to the old house in Jinling and asked the Wang family to help find it.

Qin Keqing felt that she had done her best by obeying the destiny and doing her best.If Jia Min's mother and son and Yinglian can't be saved in this way, then she can only wait for the future to take care of Daiyu, and then send more people to watch Xue Pan and Feng Yuan, so that Yinglian will not fall into Xue Pan's hands. In the hands of a big fool.

It took more than half a year for Jiao Da to go, until Qin Keqing's ship returned, but still no news came back.

But Qin Keqing is not in a hurry, it is still early before the kidnappers, one daughter and two are sold, and ordinary human traffickers are always more alert, and they always avoid people's eyes and ears.In addition, the inconvenient transportation in ancient times made it more difficult to find people. You still have to be patient and search slowly.

Qin Keqing just thought about it, and put the matter behind her. The most important thing in front of her now is that the sea ship that had been away for half a year finally returned safely.After doing so many missions, this is the first time for Qin Keqing to do business, and it is also the most profitable sea trade among all novels. Although it is not for making money, Qin Keqing is still very excited.

Xu knew that the master's family was in a hurry. On the second day after the ship returned, Zhao Qiang, the steward on board, hurried over to ask for an audience.At that time, Qin Keqing was teasing her son, Brother Ye, who was over one year old now, and his baby voice was a little slurred, it was time for fun.

Rui Zhu waited outside the door for a while, until brother Ye was hungry and went to nurse, then came in to report: "Grandma, Zhao Qiang is here."

Qin Keqing was overjoyed when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "Take him to the flower hall to have tea first, and then go to tell the wife personally, and ask the wife if she wants to listen to the new things in the sea together."

The maids around her naturally took orders, and Qin Keqing went back to the room to tidy up her makeup and clothes before going to the flower hall.

Compared with half a year ago, Zhao Qiang saw that hei was much thinner, and he looked very tired.This is also normal, the wind and waves are still strong, and the sun is poisonous. Their boat is still heading south, so naturally it will be more difficult.

Zhao Qiang was recommended by Mr. Li. He has extraordinary skills and is very convinced and loyal to Qin Keqing. He presumably is the original owner's father's subordinate.Now when he saw Qin Keqing, he knelt down to salute and greet him. Qin Keqing hurriedly ordered him to get up and speak without being too polite.

"Mr. Zhao has worked hard all the way, and I always remember Mr.'s credit in my heart."

Zhao Qiang scratched his head when he heard the words, and replied: "I can't take the credit for what the master said, but I did my best. Fortunately, I didn't encounter any big waves and waves on the way out this time, and even the little thief didn't show up. I guess it's the master's luck. Well, bless us too."

Hearing this blunt flattery, Qin Keqing smiled secretly in her heart, but didn't show it on her face, she just continued to ask: "I have never been to sea, I only heard a few words from others when they were joking, tell me about your visit this time." Where did you go? What strange things did you see? How about the sales of the goods we shipped over?"

Just as Zhao Qiang was about to speak, the maid outside told him that it was Youshi who had arrived.Qin Keqing hurriedly stood up to meet Youshi, and Zhao Qiang also stood aside with his hands down to welcome Youshi.

After Youshi came in, he didn't put on airs, nor did he dislike Zhao Qiang's reckless appearance, he just smiled and said: "I also came to join in the fun, I heard Feng girl mention it a few times in the past, but she didn't go But, it’s just a parrot. Now Mr. Zhao has been at sea for more than half a year, and let me learn a lot from him.”

"That's right, I'm also going to ask Mr. Zhao to talk about those new things. Please sit down, Mr. Zhao, and Ruizhu will pour tea for Mr. Zhao."

Compared with Qin Keqing just now, Zhao Qiang is much more cautious now.He just sat on the chair for a while, and said in a naive voice: "Since the wife and grandma want to hear, the younger ones will talk about it. The younger ones set off from West Port of Guangdong this time, according to grandma's instructions, only along the The coastline goes all the way south, it doesn't go inland."

"Maybe it's because it's close to the land, but we haven't encountered any storms. We can also buy supplies at the shore. The sailors on our ship said that this time is not too hard. Besides, there is no tooth bleeding, skin bleeding and The phenomenon of joint pain, everyone said it was blessed by the Buddha, went out safely, and came back safely."

Hearing this, You Shi smiled and said, "Amitabha, this is really blessed by the Buddha. I often hear that the sea is stormy and people are prone to illness, and the best thing is to be safe."

Qin Keqing complained secretly in her heart, it was because I prepared a lot of soybeans, pickles and tea for you, and you can often go ashore to buy fresh fruits and vegetables, which has nothing to do with Buddha.However, he didn't show it at all on his face, he just nodded and said yes.

"This time we walked along the coastline and first passed Qiongzhou Island. The people there liked our cloth and porcelain very much. The younger ones went down to buy, and when they saw that the price was good, they sold some of them and exchanged them for local huanghuali. Wood and red sandalwood, etc. There is a guy on the boat who is from Qiongzhou Island, and we store the wood we bought in his house, and bring it with us when we return, and now it has been placed on your grandma’s village in the suburbs.”

"This is really timely. Our girl is now four years old, and the dowry should be prepared. When I was checking the warehouse a few days ago, I was still thinking that there was no good wood. Now the warehouse is all the old style. I thought about sending someone to search for some after a while, but it happened that Mr. Zhao bought it back." Qin Keqing was overjoyed when she heard the words, but Youshi was a little surprised, unexpectedly she was still thinking about Xichun.

What Qin Keqing said is indeed true. Although Xichun lives in Rongguo Mansion now, she will take this "aunt" back sooner or later, and in the aristocratic family, the girl's dowry is accumulated from birth.

Xichun, as the eldest daughter of the Ningguo Mansion, was not valued by Jia Jing, Jia Zheng and his son, but Qin Keqing still felt sorry for this little girl.In the past two years, Qin Keqing often sent people to deliver some fruit, food, clothes and jewelry, but Xichun and her relationship were very good.Seeing this, the servant of the Rongguo Mansion, who had a sharp eye and a low hand, treated the girl from the Ningguo Mansion with a little more respect.

Not to mention gossip, Zhao Qiang saw that Qin Keqing liked it, so he went on to say: "After leaving Qiongzhou Island, most of them are the land where barbarians live, and their language habits are very different from ours. They communicate."

"People in some places are very fierce. When they see our boat passing by, they take up knives and sticks to drive us away. In this way, we sail away quickly; I like all the things here, and the younger ones also picked some local specialties and put them in the yard outside."

Youshi was a little moved, Qin Keqing also became curious, and the two exchanged a glance: "Then let's go and have a look. We have seen some of these foreign things every day, and it's quite interesting."

Seeing this, Zhao Qiang hurriedly got up and led the way.You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law followed behind hand in hand, and within a short time, they saw five or six large and small boxes in the outer courtyard.

"Open it and have a look, and I'd like to trouble Mr. Zhao to explain a little bit." As soon as Youshi finished speaking, the maid beside you stepped forward and opened the boxes one by one. up.

Zhao Qiang naturally introduced them one by one. Most of them are local handmade products with distinctive characteristics. Among them, a few boxes of red sapphires are the most valuable, but the craftsmanship is very rough and needs to be polished carefully.

You Shi just looked at it as novel and interesting, but Qin Keqing suddenly found a big box filled with dried branches and bark, which seemed very familiar.

Pointing to the big box, she asked, "Mr. Zhao, what's in this box, and why did you transport so much bark all the way back?"

Zhao Qiang looked at the servants serving around him, and scratched his head in embarrassment. Seeing this, Youshi and Qin Keqing knew that this must be something rare and good, and it probably involved a lot.

Qin Keqing was about to speak, but Youshi laughed first and said: "The sun is poisonous outside, let's see it, why don't we go in and talk." Then he turned to the most useful woman on weekdays, and whispered, "You Take someone to move these boxes to the yard of the grandma, and you must take a good look at them, but if there is something missing, you don't have to wait by my side."

Qin Keqing also ordered the Ruizhu Association, if the bark of the box is really what she thought, Zhao Qiang will have made a great contribution this time!

After entering the room, Zhao Qiang saw that there were only two personal attendants left in the room, and knew that these must be Youshi and Qin Keqing's confidantes, so he said in a low voice: "Madam and grandma, please forgive me, it's not a smile." I have to play tricks, but I can only tell the two of you about this matter, and the little people around me would never dare to say it."

"This bark is called 'quinine' by the locals. After drying the bark of its branches, grinding it into powder and swallowing it, it can treat malaria and fever."
