[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City

Fortunately, Lin Jue was reliable in his work and pretended to be realistic enough, and it was a coincidence that Daiyu came back that day. It was Mrs. Jia who saw that it was snowing outside and was afraid that the road would be difficult, so she let her go first, so naturally no one noticed in the end. An accident caused by a series of coincidences.

But the Lin family also accelerated the pace of packing their luggage, intending to leave Beijing earlier.

And at this moment, an unexpected person came to submit the post, it was Zhu Xun's aunt.

Jia Min was a bit puzzled. Because this lady shared a common language with Jia Min before, they were no longer so unfamiliar with each other, especially between wives, it must be a very formal thing to use greeting cards.

After asking Lin Ruhai, she also received a letter from her uncle, and the husband and wife made a total calculation and came to the conclusion that they came here for Daiyu.

As soon as they came to this conclusion, the two turned over Lin Jue's previous homework overnight, and called the youngest son over to ask questions.

Jia Min asked his son to inquire about Zhu Xun, mainly because he overheard that he was not a womanizer, but this statement came from his family.

It is not a trivial matter for two families to get married, especially marrying a daughter, which is an invisible political statement. Lin Daiyu is also the apple of the eye of the couple, so it is natural to be more cautious.

The couple's room was lit up late at night, poor Lin Jue was questioned by his parents back and forth about Zhu Xun's affairs, not letting go of a single detail, and when he was put to sleep, whenever he thought of Brother Zhu, he would feel Physiological aversion.

The next day, the two were dressed quite formally and sat in front of the hall, but what they were waiting for was a couple and Zhu Xun with awkward smiles.

This Jinke Tanhua Lang was already good-looking, but today he even sculpted his eyebrows with incense. He changed into a moon-white gown that people like very much. His slightly dark skin was a little red because of nervousness. clumsiness.

His appearance made the husband and wife a little funny, but it was also touched by his sincerity. Naturally, the three of them came here to propose marriage. The marriage proposal of an official family is different from that of the folks. They should be more careful and respect each other. We must be careful not to hurt each other's face, to test each other, and most of them invite other friends to make a kiss. It is rare for the elders to come directly to the door without any tacit understanding or hints like this. It can be said to be extremely courageous.

After all, it would be embarrassing if the woman refused.

If it gets out, future marriage partners will definitely have a bottom line in their hearts.

However, this is no less than a good move.

Zhu Xun bowed to the end, "Mr. Lin, Zhu Xun is in Lower Guangdong Province. I'm here to marry my daughter."

Lin Ruhai's eyes sharpened.

The marriage between Lin's family and Zhu's family went very smoothly. Although Zhu Xun came from an ordinary family background, he was a man of high spirit and had a high starting point. Lin Ruhai was quite satisfied after taking the school exam for a while.

Of course, there is no need to mention Lin Daiyu. Zhu Xun's aunt's family has long been satisfied. Afterwards, the name asking and Najib went very smoothly. After the Lin family returned to Gusu, the two sides exchanged gifts and dowry, and the matter was settled. up.

To say why it went so smoothly, the main reason is that the horoscope is extremely well-timed.

The man went to find a monk from the Huguo Temple to join them. The monk frowned slightly when he saw Lin Daiyu's horoscope, and said the Buddha's name after seeing Zhu Xun's horoscope, showing a very relaxed expression.

From what he said, both of them have bad horoscopes, the woman has a lot of troubles, and the man has a fate of bereavement and widowhood.

But when they are put together, they correspond to the word Hehe, the five elements are in harmony, each takes what it needs, and each gets what it wants, not boring, and looking up to each other, it can be said to be the best.

Zhu Xun's aunt frowned when she heard it, but she clapped her hands with joy when she heard it later, and went to Lin's mansion to inform the result that day.

In fact, the Lin family also took the horoscopes of the two to find the person they believed in. At first, the two were also taken aback when they heard it. Afterwards, the two also looked at each other, wondering if it was a coincidence...

Just at this moment, a monk came to the door together.

Lin Ruhai frowned as soon as he said that this monk was together. When Daiyu was a child, these two people also went to the door. Although I don't know if it is the same two who came this time, but at that time these two people wanted to teach Daiyu to become a monk. It still made him extremely unhappy.

At this time, when Daiyu wanted to discuss marriage, he didn't want to be troublesome, but Jia Min prevented him from sending some fast food, so she shook the two pieces of paper in her hand and said, "Master, there are two monks and Taoists." Ten years ago, we tried to persuade Yu'er to become a monk, but we refused, so they said that Yu'er is not allowed to cry, and that relatives and friends with a foreign surname can be safe, but now, Yu'er has cried, and the outsider has also seen her, and so does Yu'er. It's safe, I would like to hear what they have to say."

"Besides, these horoscopes make me a little flustered now, why don't I let these two people take a test and see what they have to say about our Yu'er marriage."

Seeing his wife's insistence, Lin Ruhai was also a little curious, so he asked someone to bring the monk and Taoist in.

After a while, Steward Lin brought two rather scruffy people, but when he looked closely, the two looked unchanged from ten years ago.

Jia Min and Lin Ruhai exchanged glances, and the two of them bowed to them. The monk said first, "Master Lin refused to give up the girl ten years ago, but now he is willing to change his mind?"

This opening made Lin Ruhai quite displeased, no matter how well-mannered he was, he couldn't help being a little annoyed at this moment, and was about to speak, but saw the Taoist let out a light sigh, and saw him stepping forward to look at Lin Ruhai carefully for a moment, He looked at Jia Min from left to right for a while, then lowered his eyes and made a formula with his hands to say something.

Jia Min was a little unhappy to be seen. She didn't have to come to see outsiders, but she was a little curious about the two people who were directly called liars in Lin Ruhai's mouth.

In addition, she was concerned about Daiyu's marriage, so she met with Lin Ruhai. When she was scrutinized by the Taoist priest just now, she was unhappy, but when she saw this man's attitude, she became curious again.

Seeing the Taoist priest counting for a moment, he suddenly burst out laughing.

While shaking the tattered cattail fan in his hand, he walked up to the monk, "Old brother, just look at these two people, they are really strange."

The monk was not good at face-to-face calculations, and he heard Lin Ruhai and Jia Min carefully scrutinized the two, but he looked at them longer than the Taoist priest, until Lin Ruhai couldn't bear his temper and frowned in discomfort, and then suddenly realized, and saw He clapped his hands, "Ouch. This is something the poor monk never thought of."

"Master, Daoist, this..." Seeing that both of them laughed, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min glanced at each other, both of them looked suspicious and bewildered. What."

But the two ignored him, waved their hands at him, and turned around to leave. Seeing the situation, Steward Lin wanted to stop him, so he took a step, and saw that the two were several feet away, and the voice came from afar.

"It's fun, it's fun, the spirit kid is here to continue his life."

Another person said, "Interesting and interesting, those with great luck will change their luck against the sky."

"This world is really interesting, hahahaha."

The last laugh drifted away all the way, leaving Lin Ruhai and Jia Min in place.

Jia Min's hand trembled a little, she grabbed Lin Ruhai's hand suddenly, her knuckles were cold, this was the first time she showed her emotions in public, but the words of the two monks and Taoists made it hard for her to hold back .

"Master..." Her voice choked with sobs, "What, what do these two mean..."

"Ma'am." Lin Ruhai also pinched her hand, his expression was also a little stiff, but he kept taking deep breaths and trying to restrain himself, "Ma'am, don't think too much, these words must not be spread!"

Whether it is a person with great luck or a change of fate against the sky, they cannot appear in ordinary people's homes.

But before the two of them sorted out their emotions to do something, Lin Butler suddenly murmured, "Hey, why am I here?"

Lin Ruhai was stunned, and saw Lin Butler, who just wanted to stop the two, stretched out his hand, his expression was a little dull, his mind turned, and all kinds of ghosts and ghosts flashed, and he asked tentatively, "Mingde, where are you?" What is this for?"

Butler Lin wrinkled his old face, slapped his forehead, and replied somewhat frustrated, "Master, I'm afraid Mingde is confused, but he forgot why he came here..."

Hearing this answer, Lin Ruhai's expression remained unchanged, "If that's the case, go and rest first, by the way, Mingde, I seem to have heard a commotion at the gate just now, you should send someone to see what's going on outside thing?"

Butler Lin agreed, and retreated respectfully.

Lin Ruhai held Jia Min's hand, and the hands of the two were hidden under the wide sleeves, so outsiders couldn't see clearly.Both of them squeezed each other's hand quite hard, as if they could restrain their turbulent emotions, and then the two got a response from outside, saying that the red plum tree outside suddenly opened, and everyone was looking at something fresh .

Suddenly, as if they were determined, they entered the room and waved away the waiters. Jia Min couldn't help crying on the couch on the spot.

She was very smart since she was a child, and Rong Guogong once regretted why she was born as a daughter. Just put these few words together and she roughly guessed the cause and effect. If she saved her son's life, it might also save her and the master's life.

Lin Ruhai's hand holding the cup trembled a little. He just heard the words of the two people, and for some reason, it was like hearing a bell ringing in his head. With a buzz, he understood everything.

At that moment, he seemed to see an old self, lying on the hospital bed, handing over his most cherished daughter, and then he saw her daughter turned into a cup of loess, an unmarried girl, He was not allowed to enter the ancestral grave, so he could only be buried in the distance alone.

He took a deep breath, turned his back to Jia Min and said, "Ma'am."

"My dear, we must get married."

"Also, we have to set up two longevity cards. You and I, and Jue'er, as long as our lineage is not broken, we have to offer incense."

"These two people, whether they are human beings or ghosts, are the great benefactors of my Lin family."

The red plum blossoms are a good omen.

On November 24 of the lunar calendar, it is advisable to make an alliance.

In Lin Jue's writing, this event can be described as a natural marriage.

Naturally, it was impossible for Lin Jue to tell the truth, so he just made up an excuse.

He indulged a little bit, got drunk, Brother Zhu sent him home, just happened to meet his sister who came home, and from then on a marriage was formed, which can be described as very consummated.

Xia Anran closed the letter, and when talking about this matter with Xue Pan, she could only laugh and scold Lin Jue for being unreliable and drinking recklessly at a young age.

He knew the news of Lin Daiyu's engagement last year, and he didn't know the cause and effect until now. The complicated and sour mood at that time has passed away, and he just sighed that the word "marriage" really couldn't be understood.

This is the third month of the lunar calendar, and the farmers are busy planting rice seedlings. Before the spring plowing, the farmers listened to Xia Anran's instructions, exposed the land to the sun, and then deep plowed and mixed fire dung as the base fertilizer. The service was better than in previous years. Do your best.

They know that Xia Anran values ​​farming and mulberry, and they also hope that different farming methods and different fertilizers will bring another bumper year.

Ten days after transplanting rice seedlings, a livestock household brought a group of teal ducklings to Xia Anran.

This was booked years ago.Raising ducks in rice fields is a milestone progress in ecological rice farming.

Ducks are omnivores, but it is amazing that they do not eat rice seedlings, but eat weeds and pests in the water.And because of the vigorous activities of ducks, they loosen the soil and stimulate the rice to branch. At the same time, the duck manure falls into the water and can be used as a natural nutrient for the growth of rice.

Another advantage is that the duck feet can easily muddy the water during the action, which can greatly reduce the light transmittance of the paddy field.

When the light in the paddy field is insufficient, weeds and algae will not multiply in large numbers, and the nutrients needed by the rice will not be divided by the weeds, so it can grow better.

When the rice ears are forming, the ducks can be taken away, and the ducks and rice will have a double harvest.

This method has been proven to be feasible, but Xia Anran's only concern is that the ducklings he bought may not be the breed suitable for raising ducks in rice fields, because rice field ducks need a smaller breed, otherwise, if they are too big, they may be in the middle of the action. Bring out the seedlings.

But that’s not a good idea. He saw the female duck at the time and thought it wasn’t that big. If it didn’t work out, he just put the duck in another place and kept it in captivity. It’s still a piece of meat.

Xue Pan also came to watch the excitement. The experimental field Xia Anran chose was a piece of flat land at the entrance of the county government office in Yongchun County. It is more convenient for him to commute here every day. By the way, Xia Duoduo used to catch eels here before.

The land here is flat and fertile, away from the woodland, and there should be no wild animals catching ducks. A few days ago, the villagers built a duck pen here, and now these ducklings are placed in the duck pen. The duck seller also brought the mother duck, and the chicks are still old enough for their mother to take them with them. These thirty or so ducklings and four female ducks cost Xia Anran half a penny, which can be said to be quite affordable.

The fluff of the ducklings has not receded yet. The long-distance transportation across a county made them a little panicked. They were put into the duck pen and rubbed against their mother in anxiety. After looking at the duck pen, holding his head high, he seemed quite satisfied with his living environment.

Because most of them are ducklings, they must be driven back to the pen at night, otherwise the ducklings are likely to drown because they cannot see at night outside.

Although ducks can swim, they are not born with it. This was ordered by the duck seller. He was also very curious about Yongchun County's move, but he also felt a little unreliable in his heart.

In his opinion, it is up to each duck to eat rice or not, and no one has ever tried to feed ducks with rice.

It's just that he won't say it, after all, if the ducks are raised well, he won't lose money, if the ducks can't be raised well, Xia Anran will have to buy them again, and he won't lose even more.

There is no loss left or right, why bother to say it to be annoying.

Xia Anran himself is not too worried. Xue Pan gave him a dividend when he came this time. He is not short of money now, and he has agreed with the old farmer in advance. If the ducks fail to raise and the harvest is damaged, he will compensate him. .

The old farmer kept refusing, but Xia Anran insisted.

One code is one code, if it succeeds, it can be popularized, and if it fails, it will naturally be compensated.

It’s just that he also knows that no matter how popular it is, raising ducks in rice fields has limitations. For example, in Yongchun, it can only be raised in a place with relatively stable terrain. A waterfowl with a broken leg...

When Xia Anran tossed the water ducks, Xia Duoduo stood by the side the whole time, looking at them with an inscrutable expression.

Xia Duoduo has now grown into a big goose, with snow-white feathers and long feathers, orange-red claws and beak, and black and bright eyes.

Probably because of the reason why it was raised from a young age, Xia Duoduo is one of the very few geese that can fly long distances.

It brought the nosy habit developed in Gusu City to Yongchun County, where the sun rises early every morning, and the rooster gets up before crowing, and then patrols the county government first, wagging away On the street, there were only scattered pedestrians on the street at this time, so he checked them one by one, and he didn't know how it recognized people.

Animals like geese have a strong sense of territory. What's more frightening is that they are different from other animals that urinate and mark their territory. Goose's territorial concept is: the place where the master is, a radius of one kilometer, is all the territory of the master, understand ?

Fortunately, Xia Duoduo is different, it is a goose with a sense of justice, it never grabs people indiscriminately, and it is extraordinarily handsome, it deserves to be the goose raised by the magistrate, but it is different from other geese.

However, Yongchun has never raised geese before, but many villagers in the surrounding counties are watching Duoduo to grow up so that they can bring their mother geese to breed.

Xia Duoduo is not interested in the goose girl, it is only interested in the little things of the folks in the village.

Ever since it was sent to Yongchun County by Shen Qi, Xia Anran basically didn't worry about the family affairs, before the villagers came to the county government, Duo Duo Goose followed the sound and drove away.It has a terrifying intuition and human nature. As long as the villagers tell it what happened, he can figure out who is right and who is wrong.

Try a hundred spirits.

In the end, even the monks in Yongchun County came to see this goose that seemed to be enlightened, and finally wrapped red silk around its neck as a sign of marriage.

The great monks are all married, which shows that this goose is really a spirit.

Since then, when there are any disputes, everyone will not go to Xia Anran first, but Xia Duoduo. Only people who are not satisfied with Xia Duoduo's judgment will go to Xia Anran. To a certain extent, Xia Duoduo is better than the county magistrate Use, ahem.

Today, Xia Duoduo inspected his own territory under the rising sun, took a bath in the clean stream, had breakfast, shook off his feathers and was ready to go to work, It saw its second-in-command got up early and ran out, oh oh oh he looked over!

Are you looking for geese?

Xia Duoduo flapped his wings, took a run-up, and rushed over, hitting Xia Anran's arms like a cannonball.

Xia Anran was carrying this goose that weighed almost ten catties... really, she couldn't bear the burden of happiness.

Then, with this burden, he checked the growth of the seedlings and the depth of the water. When the sun warmed up slightly, the ducklings were brought in.

and so.

Xia Duoduo looked deeply at a group of tender yellow ducklings whose lanugo hair had not faded, listened to their chirping sounds, and then looked at the female ducks looking at her with vigilant eyes.

The second master is not here to find geese.

It was silent for a while, walked to Xia Anran silently, chewed on the hem of Xia Anran's robe with its duckbill, and then shook it lightly a few times. Xia Anran, who was talking to someone, was attracted by this movement. He hung his head on his robe in an awkward posture with his eyes closed and his long neck stretched out. He immediately laughed, and the experienced old farmer beside him said to Xia Anran, "This is acting like a baby."

So Xia Duoduo was very contented to be hugged by the second head of the family.

It stroked Xia Anran's hair with its mouth, turned its head, and looked at the ducklings with contempt.

Of course Xia Anran couldn't notice these changes, he was busy talking to the farmers about how to take care of the duck.

Theoretically speaking, ducks can go into the water ten days after birth, and the wild ones can go into the water on the second day under the leadership of mother ducks. Those who cannot adapt will be eliminated, but he is here for breeding, and he doesn't care who is more talented. It’s better, it’s best if you can keep them all. Just transplanted the seedlings, and now the water level in the rice field is controlled to be as deep as half a palm, which is a relatively adaptable depth for ducklings.

Then I talked to the old farmer about the next issue of feed feeding. Now that the rice fields have been cleaned up, of course there are no weeds or snails in it. The rations of the ducks will depend on feeding. After a few days, the water will start With the emergence of other organisms, the feeding of artificial feed can be appropriately reduced.

Xia Anran talked for a while, looking at the sun, it was almost the time he and Xue Pan had agreed upon, and he had to go back and change into more formal clothes to discuss caravan matters with the surrounding businessmen.

Patting the goose on the head, Xia Anran signaled it to come down and play by itself, he was going to work.

Xia Duoduo was so obedient that his wings shook, and he landed steadily on the ground. After watching Xia Anran and others go away on the land, he slowly looked at the ducklings.

The meeting held with the leaders of the Fujian Chamber of Commerce was scheduled to be Shen Shi today. Xia Anran went to have a meal first, and after making some preparations, he went to appease Xue Pan who seemed very nervous.

Xue Pan was driven to the shelves this time. Although Xia Anran expressed his belief in his ability, Xue Pan was still a little hypocritical when facing a group of old fried dough sticks.

Xia Anran didn't comfort him anymore. People like Xue Pan are standard on-the-spot personality. It's useless to say more in advance. If you push him at a critical moment, he can explode by himself.

The key is that he doesn't believe that he can do it. He always thought it was Feng Yuan's credit. Xia Anran had received Feng Yuan's letter before. This time he could have come together, but Feng Yuan noticed Xue Pan's mentality, so he Please ask Xia Anran to put some pressure on him, Feng Yuan can't do it himself, he is also the type of unprincipled love for Xue Pan.

Xia Anran is different, he is a cat, even for his own cubs, Master Cat is not the type to spoil unprincipled.

The cat family is the type that believes that filial sons are born under the stick.

This can be seen from the difference in the way Shen Qi and Xia Anran taught Xia Duoduo.

This time it's the right time, place and people again. Does Xue Pan want the resources of the Southern Hokkien caravan?Of course he thought, how to hide his identity and cheat the caravan depends on his own ability.

Businessmen and businessmen, after all, interests come first.

At the end of the day, guests came one after another. Obviously, they all came all the way, and there must have been discussions on the way. Xia Anran asked them to sit down one by one, and with a glance, he already knew who had the right to speak. .

He went to fetch the tea tray himself, followed Shen Qi's example and poured some tea for the guests, then put down the teapot and made fun of them, his little white teeth gleaming.

This was named by Xia Anran as the first Minzhong (taken from southern Fujian and Central Plains) Business Friendship Alliance Exchange Meeting, and it lasted for three days.

During these three days, Xia Anran accompanied him all the way. He took a wooden board, nailed it to the wall, painted it with white paint, and asked a few scholars from Yongchun County to take notes.

Every time a point of controversy arises, it will be written on the white paint, and then the part that everyone has opinions on will be written into a small note, which is also pasted on the bottom of the wooden board. Basically, it will be divided into pros and cons, debated and refuted one by one. After the issue is resolved, the scholar will record it and put it on the other side.

The white wooden board was cleaned by splashing water, and a topic was being written.

Solving problems so quickly and accurately is unheard of by many businessmen.

They are more used to grinding a problem around and grinding each other until the person who loses patience first regresses.

It's just that when each of my points of discussion is put on paper, some problems can't be hidden, such as short-sightedness, fishing in troubled waters, and insincerity.

When Xia Anran came up with this method on the first day, everyone still didn't understand what the little county magistrate was going to do, and they were unprepared. When Xia Anran recorded their opinions to the point... Everyone watched This simple generalization is a bit of a toothache.

Apart from having a toothache, I can’t say that I didn’t mean it that way, because that’s what they actually meant.

For example, when talking about the price of seaweed, merchant Jia complained about the hardships of being a merchant, and also said that it is not easy for the common people to breed in Fujian, which is windy and risky.

As a result, Xia Anran nodded, and wrote on the paper that merchant Jia thought the purchase price was low.

When he pasted the note on the wall, Shangshang Jia's teeth suddenly became gritty.

No, County Magistrate Xia, you are a scholar after all, can you use some more literati words?More sunny and snowy?

The person who read the word "dislike" is really sad.

While this is indeed true, can't we be more tactful?

Xia Anran knocked on the table and said, no, next one.

So on the second day, everyone's words became more tactful, but after a long period of exam-oriented education, Xia Anran was very proficient in finding the central words in a passage, no matter how tactful their words were, he could still put the words out The package of colorful flowers was peeled away, revealing the most naked profit exchange.

On the third day, the merchants were too lazy to cover up any more. Money, profits, goods, contacts; losses, compensation, costs, and risks were all listed one by one. slowly changed.

Originally, they cooperated with each other tacitly, but because his random punches were disrupted, Fujian merchants naturally wanted the Xue family's thread, but at the same time they also wanted to use the Xue family's thread at the lowest price.

The problem is that the scope of their business, it is impossible not to overlap.For example, the cloth shop business will definitely overlap with the dye house business, and the medicine business and spice business will also have some conflicts.

The Xue family wants the one with the highest profit and the lowest cost, who will give in?Or no one will budge?

I told you not to give in, and I was unwilling to give in to each other. Is it to offend the Xue family?

Want a win-win?Then each other will step back.

Xue Pan later gradually discovered that it is actually very interesting to discuss business with these bigwigs.

Because when they reach their level, they will no longer be as penny-pinching as small traders. They seem to have a sense of mission naturally, a sense of mission to sell Fujian products.

If he asked Xia Anran, Xia Anran would tell him that it was something called social responsibility.

Those who can sit on this platform are no longer ordinary businessmen. They are the largest business firm in Fujian, and they have many shops and workers. It can be said that if someone present falls down, there will be thousands or even tens of thousands of people behind them. People are affected.

Fujian businessmen, from ancient times to the present, are full of social responsibility. They are a group of desperately rushing out, and when they become successful, they either return with technology or return with improved seeds to feed back the existence of Fujian.

As the area with the most concentrated ancestral home of overseas Chinese in China, Fujian is subject to unfavorable geographical conditions. Every successful businessman has a sense of responsibility to bring his father and fellow villagers to become rich together.

This is where Xue Pan vaguely felt that they were different from other businessmen.

What they care more about is not pure profit, but a kind of sustainability.

It’s probably similar to, even if I’m gone, this line should be kept——this kind of thought.

Xue Pan is a man of loyalty, and he also likes people of loyalty.

The so-called kindness does not command soldiers, and righteousness does not manage money. Xue Pan used to be a person who valued loyalty. Now that he is a businessman, he has experienced honing, but he feels that loyalty is even more precious.

Seeing that the businessmen in Fujian were so friendly to him, he actually changed his original appearance, let go of his colleagues and started to exchange cups, drinking the tea brought by the big merchants for tasting.

The atmosphere gradually heated up, and when the group of bosses realized Xue Pan's true character, they quickly formed a tacit understanding and changed their style.

Xia Anran watched from the sidelines and only thought it was funny.

Laughing, these bigwigs don’t know that although Xue Pan is prone to chicken blood, he wears a collar around his neck. This collar is exactly the circle called "Landlords have no food". The second young master is different, he is actually

A self-made poor young man, no matter how hot-blooded and brainwashed he is, when it comes to money, he will soon calm down.

The last few bosses can only sigh, it's strange to say that heroes come from teenagers.

The young people of today are really amazing.

It looks so foolish, but in fact it doesn't give an inch.

After discussing for three days, it took another two days to finalize the contract in detail, and after signing each other's signature and submitting it to the government for record, the meeting was considered to be a successful conclusion.

In fact, the first batch of goods has arrived in Yongchun one after another in the past few days.

Next, they will settle the final payment, Xue Pan will purchase the first part of the goods in the name of the Xue family, and go north with the other part of the goods that he can't eat.

Selling goods to Xue Pan is the least risky and the thinnest profit. Those who go north with the Xue family caravan to explore new markets are undoubtedly the ones with the greatest profits and the greatest risks.

It's just that the business is like this, and the timid people will never make money.

After such a long wait, it was already early April when Xue Pan set off with the team with the Shang flag with Xue characters on it.

When Shang Qi was arguing, Xue Pan asked Xue's family to send it to him.

When he came here, he drove lightly. Although he brought some mules and carts to buy, he really didn't expect the situation to become like this.

If a caravan is formed, it is natural to hang the merchant flag, firstly to show their identity, and secondly to advertise the soft power of their own caravan.

This time the joint caravan will all fly the Xue flag as a price for borrowing the Xue family's business.

Mrs. Xue, who lives in the Xue family, learned that her son needed a Shangqi, so she sent it to someone without saying a word.

Use the latest and greatest.

She is now at the happiest time, so no one will ignore what she said, and what was brought along was Jia Baoyu's letter to Xia Anran.

He wrote a whole box, and Xia Anran was embarrassed when he received it, but he was really busy at that time, so he had to wait until Xue's caravan was sent away before he could open it.

On the seventeenth day of the fourth lunar month, it is advisable to travel.

On this day, Xue Pan stood in front of Xia Anran riding a horse. Behind him was the Xue character merchant flag that squeaked in the wind, and the caravan of mules and horses that could not be seen to the bottom at a glance.

Behind Xia Anran is Master Zhizhou. Although Xia Anran took the lead in this event, strictly speaking, Yongchun Prefecture took the lead. Taking advantage of its geographical location in the hinterland of Fujian's central plains, when there is a risk in sea transportation, it took the lead in opening a land transportation business route. .

As the magistrate of the state, Su Qiming personally wrote the customs clearance document for this caravan and handed it to Xue Pan, and then he left the time for Xia Anran.

Looking at this spectacular scene, Xia Anran sighed and said, "Brother Xue, take care all the way."

Xue Pan clasped his fists at him, his black eyes shining brightly.

Then he raised his whip and took the lead to walk out, along the road paved with Sanhe soil in Yongchun County, and opened his legendary road.

Xia Anran and the others stood in place until they saw the donkey carts of the caravan set off, and then returned to the county government office. After washing his hands, he opened Jia Baoyu's letter box. He was really curious that Baoyu met him. Why did you write so many letters?How long has this been accumulated?

Xia Anran and Jia Baoyu have been exchanging letters. After all, Baoyu is in the capital, and he has almost reached the southernmost tip of the dynasty. When he first arrived here, he wrote the customs and customs of Fujian in the letter and sent it to his friends. At that time, they showed great envy, and until the road was blocked by ice and snow, the letters between the two never stopped.

Xia Anran knew that Baoyu was going to end, but he didn't expect that he actually participated in the childbirth test in the second month of the lunar calendar this year.

And it almost happened.

Thanks to Daiyu, he saved his life.

Originally, Jia Baoyu didn't need to take the child's birth test. His family was rich and noble, so he could donate a birth for him. It was released, and of course there was no one in Jia's mansion who could stop him. Mother Jia had no choice but to have someone accompany him back to Jinling for reference.

But this test almost went wrong.

Jia Baoyu was born and spoiled since he was a child, and he was always first-class in terms of food and expenses.The Tong Sheng Examination was done on the same day after the exam, so there was no need to stay overnight, so Jia's family didn't pay attention to this problem, and brought him some dry food inside.

But there was something wrong with the dry food. Jia Baoyu said that the dry food might not be clean. He had an unbearable abdominal pain when he just started the test. There was a bucket in the test room, and he couldn’t stand up after sitting on it. The pain was so bad that he couldn’t stand up. , naturally unable to call for help.

It was really embarrassing and desperate at the time, he wished he could die, and he didn't want to go through this.

But at that time, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred, thinking that Lin Daiyu had copied a checklist for the exam preparation before leaving and asked Lin Jue to give it to him when she knew that he was going to take the Tongsheng Examination.

The Jia family really didn't have this thing. The latest person in the Jia family to take the scientific examination was Jia Zhu, but Jia Zhu didn't take the child's examination, but directly took the last academic examination.

The Lin family has more experience because Lin Jue just finished the exam.

Lin Jue also gave Jia Baoyu the emergency medicine he had brought with him when he was preparing for the exam. At this time, Jia Baoyu didn't care so much, so he quickly found it and swallowed it whole. He didn't know if it was the medicine's strong effect or he really did. If he ate something unclean, it would be fine if he cleaned it up. After half an hour, Jia Baoyu finally managed to get up.

No one would be able to bear this kind of blow when they were finally planning to change, Jia Baoyu didn't say it in the letter, but Xia Anran knew that according to his character, he would definitely lose the Golden Doudou at that time.It is estimated that he had thought of giving up the exam at that time, but he did not know why, but he still finished the answer sheet, and his grades were also excellent during the evaluation.

When Xia Anran received the letter, Jia Baoyu was supposed to go to the second round of the Tongsheng Examination, and he was not sure whether Baoyu would take the exam. There is stubbornness, but it is also limited, and the resistance to pressure is low. Actually, he is not suitable to be an official.

But it is a pity that in this era, apart from scientific research, he has no other way, and only with this identity can he keep the second house in the subsequent liquidation.

He was originally the second son in the family, and Mrs. Wang got it in the middle age. He was born miraculously, and he didn't have to shoulder the responsibilities of the family. In addition, his elder brother was excellent, so he was indulged in his education. Growing up pampered.

When Jia Zhu, who can be the top door, went and was forced to stand up, he naturally had a rebellious heart.

Fortunately, at the most critical moment in his development of the Three Views, he and Xue Pan encountered a shocking blow together, and with Xue Panxia safely leading him, he also had the motivation to change.

The bones of a person cannot be supported by others. Only when you want to stand up, no matter how much others beat and torture you, it will not bend again.

Jia Baoyu passed the Jiangning government examination in one fell swoop and won the title of "Tongsheng".

The author has something to say: Well, today is still the [-]D update, so the excellent author still left a message for you TIPS.

1. Daiyu's marriage.

2. The best NPC in this chapter: one monk and one

3. Xia Duoduo Chong Duck

4. Xue Pan and Xia Miao teamed up to deceive and deceive.

5. Baoyu took the test of Tongsheng, and Daiyu returned favors.

====================

The author has studied the beginning of the original book N times, and feels that Annatto really owes favor to the waiter of Shenying. The attendant of Shenying prolongs her life, so that Annatto met the essence of heaven and earth by chance, and then "again" got it Nourished by nectar, it turns into a human form.

Therefore, it is not objective for many colleagues to say that the crimson bead grass does not owe Shenying's waiter at all. The grass is indeed on the edge of the Ling River, and there is no shortage of water, but the Ling River and the nectar are obviously not the same thing.

According to the original work, the waiter of Shenying did not ask for payment after the crimson grass took shape, and there was no more communication (you can see that after the crimson bead grass turns into a human form, it is thirsty to drink and pour water).

Huanlei was thought up by Crimson Pearl Grass herself, not instigated by others.

But judging from a monk's evaluation [the Taoist said: "It's funny, I've never heard of the saying of 'returning tears'], it is estimated that even if Daiyu shed all her tears, this favor will not be lost. , so I wrote the last paragraph based on that.

Shenying's waiter watering the crimson bead grass was an unintentional act, and Daiyu's sending the list was also an unintentional act, but in the end they all helped people through the difficulties (diarrhea will really cause dehydration to death.)

It can be regarded as repaying the favor, and this should be regarded as a favor acceptable to Tiandao, maybe there is still owed, it depends on how Tiandao judges.

The author thinks that no matter the other party’s help is obtained after you reach out, or the other party feels that you need help and then reaches out to you, as long as there is no bad result (such as doing bad things with good intentions), you should have a share of the other party’s help. Thank you.

Because the world is willing to take the initiative to help you
